May.  1918.  to  May.  1943 

THE  students  of  St.  Michael's  College  School   join    with    the    faithful    of    the    Archdiocese    of 
Toronto    in    honouring    their   Archbishop,    the   Most    Reverend     James     Charles    McGuigan, 
D.D.,  LL.D.,  on   the  occasion  of  the  Silver  Jubilee  of  his  Ordination  to  the  Holy  Priesthood. 

Archbishop  McGuigan  was  born  at  Hunter  River,  in  the  Diocese  of  Charlottetown,  Novem- 
ber 26,  1894.  He  was  ordained  in  his  native  parish,  Rustico,  P.E.I.,  on  May  26,  1918.  His  fine 
priestly  qualities  and  extraordinary  administrative  abilities  were  immediately  recognized  and  he 
was  named  Secretary  and  Chancellor  of  the  Diocese  of  Charlottetown.  In  1920  Father  McGuigan 
became  Chancellor  of  the  Archdiocese  of  Edmonton,  remaining  there  until  raised  to  the  episco- 
pacy in  1930.  He  had  already  received  high  ecclesiastical  recognition  when  in  1923  he  was 
named  Vicar  General  and  Protonotary  Apostolic.  From  1930  to  1934  as  Archbishop  of  Regina 
he  guided  a  large  Diocese,  impoverished  by  preceding  years  of  depression,  through  its  most  dif- 
ficult days  with  such  success  that  he  was  named  to  succeed  the  late  Archbishop  Neil  McNeil  of 
Toronto. 

His  Grace,  Archbishop  McGuigan,  was  installed  in  the  See  of  Toronto  on  March  20,  193S. 
Since  then,  as  Chief  Shepherd  of  the  Church  in  Toronto,  he  has  protected  and  guided  his 
present  flock  with  the  same  Christ-like  love  and  Apostolic  zeal  that  made  his  earlier  career  so 
outstanding.  Whatever  the  needs,  spiritual  or  material,  of  his  people,  he  has  ever  been  on 
hand  ready  to  serve  and  lead  them.  New  parishes,  new  activities,  increased  conversions,  a 
greatly  diminished  debt,  and  a  vigorous  spirituality  everywhere,  are  lasting  monuments  to  his 
tireless  endeavours. 

The  students  of  St.  Michael's  are  especially  aware  of  his  keen  interest  in  Catholic  education. 
Conscious  of  his  divinely-appointed  role  as  Teacher,  His  Grace  has  laboured  incessantly  for  his 
children.  Under  his  hand  the  Separate  Schools  of  Toronto  have  attained  a  new  degree  of 
spiritual,  intellectual  and  material  solidarity.  He  has  initiated  a  program,  now  well  under  way, 
to  expand  the  role  of  Catholic  Secondary  Schools  and  to  make  Catholic  higher  education  acces- 
sible to  all.  As  Chancellor  of  the  Pontificial  Institute  of  Mediaeval  Studies,  he  is  actively  con- 
cerned in  both  graduate  and  undergraduate  University  life.  Moreover,  education  at  all  levels  has 
profited  immeasurably  by  the  constructive  work  of  the  Confraternity  of  Christian  Doctrine  which 
His  Grace  established  throughout  the  Archdiocese  for  the  wider  and  more  effective  promulga- 
tion of  Christian  Truth. 

This  year,  when  Archbishop  McGuigan  celebrates  the  Silver  Jubilee  of  his  Ordination  to  the 
Priesthood,  the  students  are  most  anxious  to  express  their  appreciation  to  His  Grace  for  all  he 
has  done  for  his  children  in  Christ.  Most  especially  do  they  appreciate,  because  it  touches  them 
so  closely,  his  work  in  the  field  of  Catholic  Education.  They  assure  him  that  they  are  deeply 
grateful  for  his  unremitting  labours  on  their  behalf,  that  they  support  him  loyally  in  all  his 
undertakings,  and  that  in  their  daily  prayers  there  is  and  will  always  he  a  special  petition  for 
his  welfare.

Cardinal

Newman 

1890 


JalL.  ^  A*'^'^'   ^^^'^^'^i. 


Ay/'  HEN  the  Rev.  Charles  J.  Callan.  O.P..  launched  the  movement  for  the  beatification  of  Car- 
dinal  Newman  in  "America"  in  November  of  1941.  his  proposal  was  greeted  with  a  large 
number  of  letters  from  all  over  the  American  continent.  The  only  sustained  and  effective  response, 
however,  came  from  the  Toronto  Newman  Club.  In  the  summer  of  1942  a  Prayer  Card  was  pre- 
pared to  which  Our  Beloved  Archbishop  graciously  gave  his  "Imprimatur."  Beginning  in  Jan- 
uary of  1943  and  continuing  throughout  the  year  a  series  of  articles  on  Newman  are  appearing 
in  the  English  Catholic  Weekly  Press  of  Canada  and  thousands  of  Prayer  Cards  have  been 
distributed. 

Now  it  is  significant  that  the  members  of  the  local  Newman  Club,  who,  under  the  leader- 
ship of  Catherine  D.  McLean,  have  sponsored  this  movement  and  have  contributed  the  series  of 
articles,  are  either  students  of  or  products  of  St.  Michael's  College.  In  the  same  spirit  we,  the 
High  School  students,  have  heartily  endorsed  the  movement  and  have  introduced  it  into  over 
seven  hundred  homes  in  the  city   of  Toronto. 

In  all  this  we  see  the  strength  and  vitality  of  a  fifty  year  old  tradition  of  Newmanism  in  St. 
Michael's.  The  venerable  and  late  lamented  Father  M.  V.  Kelly  told  the  writer  of  these  lines 
that  when  he  was  a  student  of  the  college  over  fifty  years  ago,  Newman  was  to  the  students 
of  his  day  what  Sir  Bertram  Windle,  G.  K.  Chesterton  and  Jacques  Maritain  have  been  to  later 
generations, — the   embodiment  and   living  voice  of  Catholic  thought  and  culture. 

Just  as  St.  Michael's  rejoiced  in  1879,  when  Pope  Leo  XIII  conferred  on  Newman  the  honour 
of  the  Cardinalate,  and  as  succeeding  generations  of  her  students  have  learned  to  love  and  revere 
him  through  an  unbroken  tradition  maintained  by  such  Basilians  as  Fathers  Teefy,  Ferguson, 
Kelly.  McCorkell  and  McGahey,  so  we,  too,  of  this  present  generation  look  forward  confidently 
to  the  day  when  we  may  rejoice  in  the  act  of  another  Pontiff,  who,  please  God,  will  raise  this 
great  Teacher-Priest  to  the  honours  of  the  Altar.

Very  Reverend   Edmund  J.  McCorkell,  C.S.B. 

Superior -General  of   the  Congregation  of  Saint  Basil 


r^  N  behalf  of  the  student  body  of  St.  Michael's 
^^  College  School,  the  1943  Thurible  is  happy 
to  take  the  opportunity  of  paying  tribute  to  the 
new  Superior-General  of  the  Basilian  Fathers, 
the  religious  order  that  has  conducted  the  Col- 
lege for  nigh  on  to  a  hundred  years.  In  the 
month  of  July,  1942,  delegates  from  the  whole 
order  met  in  Toronto  to  choose  a  successor  to 
the  Very  Reverend  Father  Carr,  whose  term 
of  office  had  e.xpired.  By  a  very  fitting,  and 
undoubtedly  providential  coincidence,  the  man 
who  had  succeeded  Father  Carr  as  Superior 
of  St.  Michael's  College  in  1925  was  now 
chosen  to  follow  him  in  bearing  the  yet  heavier 
responsibility  of  directing  the  destinies  of  the 
Basilian  Fathers  and  their  various  works 
throughout  Canada  and  the  United  States:  the 
Very  Reverend  Edmund  J.  McCorkell.  St. 
Michael's  College  takes  a  justifiable  pride  in 
the  new  appointment. 

To  a  whole  generation  of  St.  Michael's  stu- 
dents few  men  have  been  as  well  known  as 
Father  McCorkell.  As  teacher  and  superior,  he 
was  a  familiar  figure  to  all  for  more  than 
twenty  years,  while,  as  a  student  himself,  he 
had  been  intimately  linked  with  every  phase  of 
college  life  for  nearly  a  decade  before.  Born 
on  January  4,  1891,  in  the  parish  of  Brechin  on 
the  north  shore  of  Lake  Simcoe,  he  was  a  native 
of  Mara  township  whose  proud  record  in  the 
number  of  its  sons  given  to  the  priesthood 
knows  scarcely  a  rival.  A  brilliant  high  school 
course  at  Orillia  Collegiate  Institute  was  but  the 
forerunner  of  an  equally  brilliant  one  in  Hon- 
our Arts  at  the  University  of  Toronto,  where 
Father  McCorkell  graduated  through  St. 
Michael's  College  in  1911.  Nor  had  his  inten- 
sive studies  prevented  him  from  taking  an 
active  part  in  College  athletics,  to  such  good 
effect  that  his  stalwart  play  was  a  great  factor 
in  bringing  the  Dominion  Junior  Football 
Championship  to  St.  Michael's  in  1909.  The 
very  year  of  his  graduation  saw  him  enter  the 
novitiate  of  the  Basilian  Fathers  to  dedicate 
his  life  and  his  talents  to  God's  service.  He 
was  ordained  five  years  later  on  June  29,  1916. 
Post-graduate  work  at  the  Catholic  University 
of  America  (Washington)  and  at  the  Univer- 
sity of  Chicago  followed,  embarking  the  young 
priest  on  a  life  of  further  studv  which  he  has 


never  foresaken  even  amid  the  most  varied  and 
absorbing  activities.  It  was  then  that  began 
the  long  and  unbroken  period  of  his  association 
with  St.  Michael's  College  in  both  professorial 
and    administrative    capacities. 

No  better  example  of  Father  McCorkell's 
versatility  could  be  had  than  the  fact  that  at 
this  time  he  exercised  the  functions  of  professor 
of  English,  director  of  athletics  and  registrar 
of  the  College.  Little  wonder  that  such  breadth 
of  interest  and  experience  during  those  years 
should  make  him  the  logical  choice  for  Superior 
of  St.  Michael's  upon  Father  Carr's  retirement 
in  the  summer  of  1925.  His  first  term  of  office 
ended  three  years  later,  but  he  was  immediately 
reappointed  for  a  second  term  of  the  same 
length.  In  19.51,  his  religious  superiors  dis- 
played the  great  trust  they  reposed  in  him  when 
they  appointed  him  to  the  very  responsible  post 
of  Master  of  Novices,  whose  duty  it  is  to  form 
vouthful  candidates  for  the  Basilian  Commun- 
ity in  the  way  of  religious  life.  Three  years 
later,  however,  he  was  deemed  indispensable 
once  more  to  the  governing  of  St.  Michael's 
College:  he  was  recalled  to  the  superiorship  for 
a  second  period  of  six  years.  Since  1940.  Father 
McCorkell  has  served  as  a  member  of  the  Eng- 
lish staff  at  Assumption  College,  Windsor,  and 
then  as  Principal  of  St.  Thomas  More  College 
in  the  University  of  Saskatchewan.  It  was  after 
one  year  only  in  the  latter  office  that  he  was 
elected  to  the  highest  executive  position  in  the 
Congregation  of  St.  Basil. 

Father  McCorkell's  superiorship  at  St. 
Michael's  was  a  remarkable  one  in  many  ways. 
It  marked  a  period  of  unprecedented  growth  in 
numbers,  when  the  over-all  registration  between 
1925  and  1940  increased  from  450  to  950.  It 
witnessed  likewise  the  greatest  physical  expan- 
sion since  the  foundation  of  the  College.  Under 
his  able  administration  the  beautiful  buildings 
which  grace  the  east  side  of  Queen's  Park; 
including  class  rooms,  residences  and  the  Ponti- 
ficial  Institute  of  Mediaeval  Studies,  along  with 
the  up-to-date  heating  plant,  were  completed 
in  a  first  building  campaign  and  solemnly  dedi- 
cated by  His  Grace  the  Archbishop  of  Toronto 
on  September  15,  1936.  Two  years  later,  work 
was  already  in  progress  on  the  handsome  Bren-

The  Superior's  Messag^e 


TP  HE  end  of  another  academic  year,  of  an- 
other year's  campaign,  is  a  good  time  to 
take  our  bearings,  to  check  up  on  our  supplies, 
to  note  what  progress  we  have  made,  to  lay 
our  plans  for  another  year,  and  to  examine  into 
the  reasons  for  what  wc  have  done  and  what 
we  intend  to  do. 

We  hear  it  often  expressed  that  our  country 
is  engaged  in  a  total  war.  This  can  mean  a 
great  manv  things,  .\mong  others  it  means 
that  the  total  war  effort  includes  many  things 
which  are  not  military.  It  also  means  that  all 
of  us,  even  though  we  are  much  below  or  much 
above  the  military  age,  have  some  part  to  play, 
a  contribution  to  make. 

One  of  the  first  actions  of  the  leaders  of 
our  enemies  when  they  assumed  control  was 
to  destroy  any  semblance  of  free,  liberal,  real 
education.  We  who  are  fighting  them  must 
be  on  our  guard  against  those  who  would  do 
the  same  in  this  country.  We  have  reason  to 
be  grateful  to  those  of  our  leaders  who  have 
shown  sufficient  foresight  to  protect  us  from 
this  peril.  A  few  months  ago  the  Director 
of  National  Selective  Service  warned  High 
School  students  that  if  they  left  school  before 
the  completion  of  their  course  they  were  not 
only  not  making  their  greatest  contribution  to 
victory  but  that  they  would  be  a  hindrance  in 
the  post-war  world.  "Those  who  sacrifice  their 
education  today  will  handicap  themselves  for 
tomorrow.  They  will  be  those  most  liable  to 
unemployment,  most  likely  to  be  a  burden 
rather  than  a  help  to  their  community."  Those 
who  leave  school  to  accept  work  now  will  dis- 
cover that  they  have  no  trade,  no  skill,  no  spe- 
cial training  and  will  be  unemployed  or  in  a 
dead-end  job.  You  have  had  the  privilege  of 
attending  school  this  year.  Have  you  profited 
by  this  opportunity:  If  you  have  not  been 
successful  at  your  examinations,  whose  fault 
is  it? 

But  you  have  been  offered  much  more  than 
an  education,  pure  and  simple.  It  has  been 
our  earnest  endeavour  to  provide  you  with  a 
Christian  education,  an  education  based  on  our 
firm  conviction  that  there  can  be  no  true,  com- 
plete education  which  is  not  based  on  religion. 
That  conviction  is  one  for  which  the  Catholic 
Church  is  always  prepared  to  fight  with  all  her 
strength.  Our  insistence  upon  the  necessity  of 
religious   instruction  as  part  of  any  educational 


program  has  been  the  cause  of  much  criticism 
on  the  part  of  others.  We  have  been  called 
old-fashioned,  mediaeval,  ruled  by  superstition. 
It  is  claimed  that  we  cannot  stand  strong 
draughts  of  pure  learning  but  must  dilute  it  by 
ignorant  attachment  to  what  we  call  revelation 
and  beliefs  which  arc  above  the  grasp  of  the 
human  mind. 

During  the  past  few  years  a  great  deal  of 
this  criticism  is  being  turned  against  those  who 
made  it.  There  is  a  great  demand  today  in 
many  quarters  to  reintroduce  religious  training 
into  the  schools.  While  the  methods  advocated 
differ  widely,  the  general  principle  expressing 
the  need  is  the  same.  Frequently  they  point 
out  that  Catholics  have  always  clung  to  this 
position  and  are  the  only  ones  who  have  done 
so.  Let  us  rejoice  in  their  discovery  of  what  wc 
have  always  known. 

In  a  recent  message  broadcast  to  the  Eng- 
lish-speaking world  our  Queen  said:  "I  would 
like  to  add  with  my  fullest  conviction  that  it 
is  on  the  strength  of  our  spiritual  life  that  the 
right  rebuilding  of  our  national  life  depends. 
In  these  last  tragic  years  many  have  found  in 
religion  the  source  and  mainspring  of  courage 
and  selflessness  that  they  need."  I  sincerely 
hope  there  is  not  a  student  in  IX-1  who  was 
not  already  aware  of  this  truth.  And  yet  tor 
the  benefit  of  millions  of  people,  it  needed 
stating  and  will  require  manv  repetitions.  The 
new  order  which  is  so  often  mentioned  must 
be  one  in  which  spiritual  powers  are  recognized, 
one  in  which  there  is  place  for  God  to  be 
honoured  and  served,  and  one  in  which  man 
can,  with  the  help  of  God's  grace,  save  his 
immortal  soul. 

The  product  of  Christian  education  is  the 
true  Christian.  Pope  Pius  XI  defined  the  true 
Christian  as:  "the  supernatural  man  who  thinks, 
judges  and  acts  constantly  and  consistently  in 
accordance  with  right  reason  illumined  by  the 
supernatural  light  of  the  example  and  teaching 
of  Christ:  in  other  words,  the  true  and  finished 
man  of  character."  This  is  the  product  which 
St.  Michael's  College  has  been  striving  to  turn 
out.  Both  natural  and  supernatural  truths  have 
been  explained  to  you  and  you  have  been 
taught  what  standards  to  use  and  how  to  use 
them  in  judging  your  own  acts  or  the  acts  ot 
others.  The  necessity  of  prayer,  of  the  frequent

REV.  MICHAEL  VINCENT  KELLY.  C.S.B.       RE\'.  WILLIAM  ERNEST  CUMMER,  C.S.B. 


FATHER  MICHAEL  VINCENT  KELLY 
was  born  at  Adjala  on  July  31.  1863,  and 
was  ordained  in  Saint  Basil's  Church  on  Sep- 
tember 21.  1891.  For  a  time  he  was  engaged 
in  teaching  in  Basilian  Schools,  but  he  soon 
discovered  that  his  physical  constitution  was 
not  suited  to  this  type  of  work.     Father  Kelly 


pATHER  CUMMER  was  a  convert  to  the 
Catholic  Church.  He  was  converted 
through  those  things  which  he  cherished  so 
much  throughout  his  whole  life.  God  first  re- 
vealed Himself  to  Father  Cummer  when,  as  a 
young  dentist  and  a  non-Catholic,  he  sang  in 
the  Saint  Basil's  Church  Choir.     Through  con- 


a^.s.^. 


then  turned  to  work  among  the  faithful  in 
various  Basilian  parishes  in  Toronto,  Owen 
Sound  and  Detroit.  From  this  time  on.  Father 
Kelly  laboured  tirelessly  for  God.  Wherever 
he  went  his  unflagging  zeal  enkindled  the  fire 
of  burning  love  of  God.  In  addition  to  his 
parish  work,  he  found  time  to  write  and  edit 
many  books  now  familiar  to  Catholics  in  the 
L'nited  States  and  Canada. 

Father  Kelly's  revisions  of  Dr.  Butler's  Cate- 
chism was  received  warmly  by  all  teachers  of 
Christian  Doctrine.  The  members  of  many 
choirs  throughout  the  country  now  use  the 
Saint  Basil's  and  Gloria  Hymnals  which  he 
edited.  His  "Frequent  Communicant's  Prayer 
Book"  and  pastoral  books  have  become  familiar 
to   both   priest  and  layman. 

Father  Kelly  played  an  important  part  in  the 
government  of  the  religious  institute  to  which 
he  gave  his  life.  His  counsel  was  welcomed 
even  after  infirmity  had  caused  him  to  retire 
from  active  governance. 

On  July  24,  1942,  Father  Kelly  passed  to  his 
eternal  reward  and  his  funeral  Mass  was  sung 
in  Saint  Basil's  Church,  Toronto,  the  Church 
in  which  he  had  been  ordained  fifty  years 
earlier. 


tact  with  Catholic  life  and  his  earnest  desire 
for  the  eternal  truth.  Father  Cummer  turned 
to  Catholicitv. 

Doctor  Cummer  was  gradually  acquiring 
great  international  renown  in  the  field  of  Pros- 
thetic Dentistry.  A  man  of  rare  genius  and 
organizing  ability,  he  was  Professor  of  Prosthe- 
tic Dentistry  in  the  University  of  Toronto  and 
Dean  of  Dentistry  at  the  University  of  Detroit. 
Behind  all  his  accomplishments  there  still 
glowed  a  desire  to  pursue  greater  things  for 
Almighty  God.  He  heard  the  Divine  call  to 
the  Priesthood  and  the  time  came  when  he  was 
able  to  give  himself  entirely  to  God. 

He  entered  the  Congregation  of  Saint  Basil 
on  November  29,  1934,  and  studiously  devoted 
himself  to  acquiring  the  necessary  knowledge 
for  his  new  state  of  life.  He  was  ordained  in 
the  Church  in  which  he  had  sung  while  still 
a  non-Catholic  on  June  II,  1938.  Father  Cum- 
mer bore  a  continual  cross  of  sickness,  but  his 
firm  and  simple  faith  and  confidence  in  God 
was  a  joy  to  all  with  whom  he  came  in  contact. 
Father  Cummer  passed  into  eternal  life  on 
May  14.  1942.  His  shining  example  of  love 
and  trust  in  God  lingers  in  the  hearts  of  all 
whom  he  knew.

In  Memoriam 


EDWARD  AYERST 

f  N  S("IK)()I,  \vf  sec  around  us  many  depend- 
able, steadfast  "plii};);ers."  These  arc  the 
fellows  who  do  not  get  it  the  Hrst  time,  hut 
come  to  school  the  next  day  with  the  whole 
thing  in  their  head,  tied  in  by  long  hours  of 
serious  study.  A  very  special  admiration  is 
rescryed  for  boys  of  this  type.  We  woidd  like 
to  be  able  to  pat  them  on  the  back  and  praise 
them;  but  they  all  seem  so  sclf-etTacing  that 
praise  doesn't  seem  to  fit  them. 

Edward  Averst  was  one  of  the  shining  stars 
in  this  class.  He  managed  to  fit  more  work 
into  a  school  day  than  most  did  for  a  week. 
Like  all  boys,  he  achieyed  real  pleasure  from 
sports  and  he  took  part  in  them  as  much  as 
outside  work  would  permit.  His  hard  work 
did  not  stop  when  he  left  school.  During  the 
summer  months  preyious  to  his  enrollment  at 
Saint  Michael's  he  worked,  as  he  did  eyery 
summer.  He  showed  that  he  had  the  ambition 
to  rise  to  great  heights  of  success. 

His  death  came  suddenly  in  the  summer  of 
1942.  The  efforts  of  his  too-short  life  reaped 
a  tremendous  reward.  On  his  last  night,  al- 
though he  was  not  in  graye  danger,  Ed.  re- 
ceiyed  Extreme  Unction  and  the  last  blessings 
of  Holy  Mother  the  Church. 


MICHAEL  EWANKIN 

T  ATE  in  January,  1943,  Michael  Ewankin 
^  died  at  his  home  in  Toronto.  Three  years 
before.  Mike  had  come  to  Saint  Michael's  and 
had  taken  his  place  in  the  classroom  and  in 
the  hearts  of  his  class-mates.  Mike  was  always 
so  cheerful  and  pleasant  that  no  one  suspected 
that  he  had  difficulties  of  his  own.  Howeyer, 
he  did  have  difficulties,  graver  troubles  than 
any  one  of  us.  Although  Mike  had  been  suf- 
fering with  anaemia,  he  had  determined  to  be- 
come a  priest  in  order  that  he  might  work 
among  his  own  Polish   people  in  the  West. 

School  work  was  far  from  easy  for  Mike,  but 
this  did  not  deter  him.  Like  the  faithful  ser- 
vant in  the  Gospel,  he  put  his  talents  to  good 
use.  His  teachers  could  not  recall  a  time  that 
Mike  came  to  class  unprepared.  His  sickness 
often  confined  him  to  his  bed.  but  he  did  not 
let  this  affect  his  school  work  seriously.  When 
Mike  went  to  bed,  his  books  always  went  with 


him   and    he    studied    industriously    to   keep   up 
eyery  phase  of  his  studies. 

Mike  gave  a  maryellous  example  to  the  boys 
at  Saint  Michael's  atid  in  return  on  the  yery 
morning  that  he  died  a  huge  spirittial  bouquet 
was  offered  to  Almighty  God  for  the  repose  of 
Mike's  sold.  Each  and  eyery  one  of  us  is  cer- 
tain that  Mike  died  as  he  lived, — with  God. 
It  is  our  sincere  hope  and  prayer  that  Mike  is 
now  in  heaven  enjoying  the  company  of  the 
Elect  and  interceding  for  each  and  every  one 
of  us  before  the  Judgment  .Seat  of  (jod.

nan  Hall,  which  was  in  use  by  Christmas,  1938, 
providing  St.  Michael's  with  one  of  the 
finest,  and  most  complete  college  refectory 
buildings  in  Toronto.  As  if  this  were 
not  a  sufficiently  remarkable  accomplish- 
ment for  the  administration  of  one  man, 
plans  were  actually  being  drawn  up  for  the  new 
High  School  building  of  the  College,  when  the 
present  conflict  broke  out,  necessitating  the  in- 
definite postponement  of  any  further  building 
activities. 

With  all  due  credit  to  these  outstanding 
achievements,  it  is  quite  likely  that  Father  Mc- 
Corkell  will  live  in  the  minds  and  hearts  of  a 
generation  of  St.  Michael's  men  less  for  these 
things  than  for  his  personal  characteristics, 
most  of  all  perhaps  for  his  kindly  geniality. 
His  wit,  as  ready  as  it  was  original,  and  his 
unfailing  good  humour  will  long  be  remem- 
bered to  the  lingering  echo  of  a  hearty  chuckle. 
Sayings  of  his  and  ready  rejoinders  are  still  re- 
peated; many  of  them  promise  to  become 
classics.  Impartially  fair  and  affable  with  all, 
he  was  especially  a  friend  in  need;  it  is  students 
with  sorrows  and  troubles  who  have  had  the 
best  opportunity  of  sounding  the  depth  of  un- 
derstanding and  warm  sympathy  to  be  found 
in  his  kind  heart. 

To  a  true  friend,  therefore,  and  a  loyal  sup- 
porter, the  Thurible  respectfully  offers,  in  the 
name  of  the  student  body,  heartiest  congratula- 
tions, best  wishes  and  a  sincere  prayer  that  God 
may  bless  and  prosper  Father  McCorkell's  work 
as  Superior-General  of  the  Basilian  Fathers, 
rendering  it  fruitful  before  both  God  and  man.

Rev.  M.  J.  Ferguson,  C.S.B. 

1839- 191- 

First  Native  Basilian  Priest 

AMONG  priests  in  the  Archdiocese  of  Toronto  the  parish  of  North  Adjala  is  frequently 
called,  in  familiar  conversation.  "The  Holy  Land"  as  a  tribute  both  to  the  vigour  of  its 
catholicity  and  to  the  number  of  vocations  from  the  district.  The  first  priest  from  the  parish  was 
born  on  the  farm  in  which  the  Church  stood.  On  his  birthday,  March  23,  1839,  he  was  simply 
the  sixth  child  of  Hugh  Ferguson  and  Rose  Colgan,  a  few  days  later  he  was  baptized  Michael 
Joseph. 

St.  Michael's  College  opened  its  doors  to  him  on  October  2i,  1852,  and  nine  years  later  to  the 
day  he  was  ordained  priest,  the  first  of  the  pioneer  Basilian  vocations  to  be  raised  to  that  sacred 
oflice.  The  intervening  years  had  not  all  been  spent  in  study,  three  of  them  had  been  divided 
between   teaching  in  a   country  school  and  clerking  in   a  village   general   store. 

Father  Ferguson  was  a  self-made  man  in  the  best  sense  of  the  term.  Ordained  by  special  dis- 
pensation at  the  age  of  twenty-two  in  order  to  meet  the  great  need  for  priests,  he  had  been 
deprived  of  a  complete  course  of  instruction,  but  by  private  study  he  so  made  good  the  deficiency 
that  in  later  years  he  was  competent  to  fill  positions  demanding  advanced  scholarship.  Never- 
theless his  colleagues  often  discussed  what  might  have  been  the  result  had  one  so  magnificently 
gifted  been  accorded  the  advantages  ordinarily  considered  essential  to  the  formation  of  a  college 
professor.  As  a  teacher  he  possessed  the  happy  faculty  of  putting  his  views  within  the  grasp 
of  others  and  so  controlled  and  shaped  their  lives. 

He  exercised  a  wider  influence  through  his  preaching  for  in  this  field  his  ability  was  so  out- 
standing that  at  the  suggestion  of  the  Archbishop  of  Toronto  he  had  preached  even  before  his 
ordination.  He  preached  frequently  all  his  life  and  even  in  the  last  years  of  his  life  was  an 
eloquent  exponent  of  the  Gospel.  His  voice  was  strong,  clear,  resonant  and  pleasing  in  the 
highest  degree;  his  imagination  brilliant,  and  his  command  of  language  at  once  original  and 
forceful. 

Two  hobbies  were  famous  among  associates  and  students,  his  flower  garden  and  his  love  for 
Newman.  They  helj)ed  him  with  the  first  and  he  in  turn  introduced  them  to  the  writings  of 
the   great    cardinal    whose  canonization    is   now   being  proposed. 

Possessed  of  a  vigorous  and  robust  constitution,  though  by  no  means  free  from  physical 
infirmity.  Father  Ferguson  lived  to  celebrate  the  golden  jubilee  of  his  ordination.  The  first  years 
of  his  priestly  life  were  spent  at  St.  Michael's  College  and  then  from  1873  until  his  death  on 
April  30,  19 1 3,  he  was  attached  to  Assumption  College,  Windsor.  Two  funeral  Masses  were 
celebrated  over  the  body  of  this  pioneer,  one  at  Assumption  College,  and  a  second  at  St.  Michael's 
after  which  he  was  buried  in  Mt.  Hope  Cemetery.

Ontario.  Bob  Brick,  the  popular  linesman  on 
the  Senior  Football  Team,  is  from  the  "Falls." 
Jack  Kennedy  proudly  represents  London  as 
Jerry  Record  does  Owen  Sound.  Pat  O'Leary 
hails  from  Fort  William,  and  Dick  Corkery 
(Father  Dolan's  "farm  boy")  came  to  us  from 
Peterborough.  Ken  and  Allen  McAvoy  repre- 
sent Port  Colborne. 

Ralph  Balzac  and  Orlando  Morales  came  all 
the  way  from  South  America.  Rumour  has  it 
that  Orlando  does  a  snappy  rhumba  on  the 
dance  floor. 

But  varied  places  of  birth  is  not  Thirteen — 
One's  only  boast  to  fame.  We  have  the  stars  of 
both  the  football  and  hockey  teams  in  our 
midst.  George  Callahan,  the  boy  who  literally 
"flies  through  the  air"  captained  the  football 
team  and  played  bang-up  football  on  the  line. 
Jim  Huck  and  Murray  Sullivan  were  football 
players  and  hockey  managers  de  luxe.  Joe 
Solarski  was  the  quarter  back  on  the  Senior 
Football  team  and  was  known  to  one  and  all 
as  "Mr.  Brains"  for  his  quick-thinking  on  the 
gridiron.  Bob  Schnurr  and  Cec  Schmalz  were 
shining  lights  with  the  Majors,  while  Bus  Sadler 
played  great  hockey  for  the  Buzzers. 

Of  course  no  room  that  lays  any  claim  to 
fame  would  be  without  its  musicians.  Bob  Hall 
and  Bill  O'Leary  represented  us  in  the  St. 
Michael's  College  School  Band  which  furthered 
its  greatness  during  the  past  year.  Don  Young 
is  a  very  able  chorister  in  Dr.  Ronan's  Choir. 

Rex.    Winhall,    Bob    Silcox,     Jack     Mayer, 


Murray  Kirby,  Tom  O'Neil,  Fred  Servis  and 
Joe  Walker  are  all  charter  members  of  the  "I 
got  the  right  answer,  but  how  did  I  get  it" 
Club.  Incidentally,  all  the  above-mentioned  are 
future  airforce  men. 

It  is  in  the  classrooom  that  Thirteen-One 
really  reaches  its  greatest  claim  to  fame.  Ford, 
Buie,  O'Boyle,  O'Leary  and  Attalah  all  advo- 
cate the  abolition  of  Algebra  but  still  manage 
to  do  well  in  it.  Eric  Johnson  is  the  wonder- 
boy.  To  him,  homework  is  not  essential  and  yet 
he  regularly  gets  "first."  Dick  Bullock  and 
Hugh  Curran  will  gladly  discourse  on  anything 
pertaining  to  Latin,  while  Gerry  O'Gorman  and 
Gene  Brown  will  do  the  same  in  Physics.  Tony 
Balaban  prefers  a  good  mystery  story  to  any 
period,  but  continually  pops  up  with  ingenious 
solutions  to  problems  that  confront  him.  Jerry 
DesLauriers  is  a  master  at  home-made  French 
words.  Vince  Dunne,  ably  assisted  by  Dwyer 
and  Matus,  demands  and  gets  proof  for  each 
and  every  French  correction. 

Finally,  we  come  to  that  important  group 
which  is  not  outstanding  in  any  one  activity, 
but  the  "heart"  of  the  room  and  contains  all- 
round  good  fellows.  Numbered  among  them 
are  Dick  Anderson  with  his  slow,  infectuous 
smile;  Tom  Lee,  Jerry  Paquette  and  Bruce 
Lang,  all  filled  with  unfailing  good  humour. 
Jack  McCreavy  and  Bill  Muir  are  always  ready 
with  their  quick  wit.  Warren  Hodgins  and 
Ken  Nealon  are  "regular  fellers"  in  every  sense 
of  the  word. 

With  such  an  array  of  talent  and  good-fel- 
lowship, is  there  any  wonder  that  we  are  proud 
of  XIII-1?  Unfortunately,  we  cannot  remain 
together  much  longer.  Already  some  have  left 
and  before  this  writing  sees  print  many  more 
will  have  gone  to  the  armed  forces  or  to  the 
farm.  Those  who  remain  behind  wish  them 
luck.  We  are  sure  that  they  will  be  a  credit  to 
their  God,  their  Country,  their  School  and  to 
the  teachers  under  whom  it  was  their  privilege 
to  study.

"P  ()  luistace  has  taken  part  in  a  large  number  of  operational 
sorties,  many  of  which  have  been  against  heavilv  defended  targets. 
On  his  first  sortie,  his  aircraft  was  attacked  by  four  enemy  attackers. 
Pilot  Orticer  Kustace  and  the  rear  gunner  used  their  guns  so  effective- 
ly that  the  attackers  broke  away.  On  another  occasion  this  Officer's 
aircraft  was  hit  by  anti-aircraft  lire,  which  damaged  the  intcr-com- 
municalion  wiring,  but  he  effected  a  skillful  repair,  thereby  enabling 
his  captain  to  Hy  on  and  successfully  complete  the  sortie.  Throughout 
Pilot  Officer  Kustace  has  displayed  outstanding  courage  and  deter-

'"T^HE  world  is  but  a  stagr  upon  which  even- 
man  must  play  his  part."  This,  a  quota- 
tion from  Shakespeare,  is  the  mythical  motto 
adorning  the  doorway  of  XIII-2.  It  is  a  small 
world  and  its  people  play  their  parts  and  play 
them  well  indeed.  It  is  a  unique  little  society 
and  contains  men  from  every  walk  of  life — 
sportsmen,  social  lions,  historians,  writers,  golf- 
ers and  even  travelers,  are  to  be  found  dashing 
about  its  avenues  at  any  time  of  dav.  It  is 
rather  ditTicult  to  describe  these  swaggering 
satelites  of  XIII-2  and  it  is  equally  as  difficult  to 
single  out  anyone  in  particular,  for  thev  have 
onlv  one  thing  in  common:  thev  arc  all  Saint 
Michael's  boys.  That  should  suffice  for  a  gen- 
eral introduction  and  now  let  me  acquaint  you 
with    the   individuals    themselves. 

One  man  who  is  outstanding  for  piersonal 
affability  is  philosophical  Ed.  Doran.  He  con- 
fines his  preaching  to  his  associates  and  mainly 
one  Archibald  Parker,  the  renowned  social  lion 
and  gagster  of  note.  Ray  Webster  convulses 
the  .Math.  Class  with  his  witty  remarks,  while 
bantering  Don  Shea  is  reputed  to  be  an  admirer 
of  every  comedian  on  the  circuit. 

In  every  big  city  there  is  to  be  found  a  num- 
ber of  men,  who  by  sheer  physical  ability,  have 
fought  their  way  to  the  fore  in  the  world  of 
sports.  The  environs  of  XIII-2  are  studded  with 
such  individuals.  Jerry  Hickev,  Greg.  Carter 
and  Paul  McLean  played  outstanding  hockey 
for  the  Majors  during  the  past  season.  John 
Bennett,  the  man  of  the  whip-cord  frame,  guard- 
ed the  nets  for  those  fighting  Buzzers  until 
painful  injuries  forced  him  to  the  sidelines.  Joe 
Marzalik,  the  diminutive  center  on  the  same 
team,  and  bruising  Ray  Midghall  round  out 
our  representatives  on  the  Junior  "B"  O.H.A. 
team.  Finally,  there  is  Captain  Johnny  Marois, 
who  did  such  a  remarkable  job  guarding  the 
twine  for  the  Majors.  Mike  Kirby,  of  amateur 
figure  skating  fame  in  Canada,  has  left  XIII-2 
and  at  present  is  far  afield  in  search  of  new- 
laurels. 

Hugh  Piatt  is  well  known  in  C.Y.O.  tennis 
circles.  Pete  O'Hanlon  was  one  of  the  hard- 
hitting linesmen  on  the  Senior  High  team  of 
1942.  Rumour  has  it  that  Jim  Kinney  has  de- 
veloped into  a  very  fine  golfer.  We  must  not 
forget  "Irish"  Mike  Sullivan.  He  was  a  stand- 
out on  the  line  during  the  football  season  and 
then  dug  right  in  and  did  a  grand  job  as  man- 


ager of  the  Buzzers  and  Father  Whelan's  right- 
hand  man. 

Studious  and  sincere,  Walt  Gilmartin's  chief 
hobbies  are  books  and  politics.  The  "solid- 
ness"  in  the  School  Band  is  supplied  by  Bas 
Gregoire,  Jerry  Stangret,  Joe  Ruta,  Al  Levy  and 
Wally  Mildon.  Straying  a  little  from  the 
heavier  type  of  rhythm,  we  enter  the  field  of 
"'swing,"  where  three  gents  strive  for  honours. 
Don  Goudy,  who  occasionally  M.C's  at  St. 
Peter's,  is  a  rival  of  Eddie  Duchin.  Bill  Lee 
and  Joe  Staples  are  rival  exponents  of  "Boogie- 
Woogie."  Then  there  are  the  Ross  Brothers, 
who   are   members  of   the  Cathedral   Choir. 

Dermot  Cullen,  when  not  hunting  Japs,  is 
usually  found  with  his  friend,  Jim  McCool.  Art 
Cahill,  Tommy  McConkey  and  Jack  Mair  came 
to  XIII-2  in  October  and  have  been  quite  com- 
fortable there  ever  since.  Frank  Redican  is 
the  only  resident  who  comes  to  business  every 
day  via  the  waves — he  lives  on  the  Island. 
Bill  Murphy,  John  Wilson,  .\d  Bellevance  and 
Matt  Xealon  have  been  quite  successful  in 
C.Y.O.  affairs  in  their  respective  parishes.  When 
he  isn't  absorbed  in  scholastic  intrigue,  suave 
Tom  Bewley  is  a  social  pace-setter. 

John  Piflard,  Ken  Wilson,  John  Davies  and 
Jack  Butler  vie  for  honours  in  Math,  and 
Chemistry,  while  Norm  Eversfield  has  a  flare 
for  medicine.  Laprairie  and  McGovern  are 
the  official  doormen  and  do  a  brisk  and  effi- 
cient task.  Doug.  Hatch  is  O.C.  of  the  Cadet 
Corps  and  is  capably  assisted  by  George  Calla- 
han of  football  fame. 

Bosom  pals  found  in  our  midst  are  Meyers 
and  Murphy,  Sansone  and  Dwyer.  Terry  For- 
restal  and  genial  Jack  Harper  have  been  tagged 
as  excellent  students.  The  East  is  well  repre- 
sented in  XIII-2.  George  Glynn  hails  from 
Newfoundland,  while  his  rivals,  J.  A.  Davies 
and  Gus  MacKinnon  uphold  the  Nova  Scotia 
mode  of  life.  Under  pressure,  Doug  Mac- 
Intyre  will  admit  that  he  is  from  Ca{>e  Breton. 

It  is  getting  rather  late  now  and  the  night 
watchman  is  rapping  at  the  door.  I  hope 
enjoyment  is  gained  from  the  picture  I  have 
painted  of  this  lovable  town  tucked  away  amid 
the  aging  plaster  of  old  Saint  Michael's.  As 
the  lights  begin  to  fade  and  flicker,  leaving  us 
in  the  darkness  of  the  future,  I  hope  that 
we  may  grope  our  way  along  the  narrow  path 
that  leads  to  our  resf>ective  goals.

The  Majors 


Wl  HEN  the  big  gong  in  the  Arctic  Arena 
announced  the  end  of  play  in  the  decid- 
ing game  of  the  St.  iMichaels'-Brantford  series 
that  cold  winter  night  last  March,  the  score- 
board indicated  that  the  home  team  had  won 
7-'5.  A  St.  Michael's  team,  of  which  the  school 
and  its  supporters  could  well  be  proud,  had 
bowed  out  of  the  picture  in  a  heart-breaking 
series.  It  marked  the  end  of  the  season  for 
as  gallant  a  crew  of  puck  stars  as  St.  Michael's 
had  ever  sent  to  the  Junior  "A"  hockey  wars. 
They  did  not  win  the  group  title;  they  did  not 
reach  the  finals;  but  they  proved  themselves 
worthy  wearers  of  the  Double  Blue. 

This  was  the  second  "A"  team  the  school 
iced  after  a  two-year  absence  from  competition. 
From  last  year's  team  a  strong  nucleus  returned 
in  Johnny  Marois,  Frank  Bennett,  George 
Dodd.  Tom  O'Neill,  Jerry  Hickey,  and  Cece 
Schmalz.  From  the  Buzzers  came  their  ace 
ccntreman,  Greg  Carter.  New  and  valuable 
additions  were  Dave  Bauer,  Frank  Dunlap,  Bob 
Schnurr,  and  Bryan  Lynch.  Paul  McLean  re- 
turned to  hockey  after  a  year's  enforced  rest 
from  all  athletics.  In  front  of  the  brilliant 
Marois,  the  trio  of  Bennett,  Dodd,  and  O'Neill 
proved  as  formidable  a  defence  as  any  in  the 
group.  For  the  attack  two  speedy  lines  were 
built  around  the  centres,  Hickey  and  Carter: 
Bauer  and  Schmalz  and  Lynch  working  with 
the  former;  Dunlap,  Schnurr,  and  McLean  al- 
ternating with  Greg.  But  one  would  have  dif- 
ficulty picking  an  outstanding  star  of  the  team. 
They  took  turns  at  starring.  On  more  than 
one  occasion  it  was  the  superb  net-minding  of 
Johnny  that  pulled  the  Majors  through  to  a  win. 
Another  game  would  see  "Windy,"  George  or 
Frank  saving  the  day  with  a  brilliant  display 
of  defensive  work.  On  a  day  when  the  defence 
found  the  going  tough,  the  baffling  offensive 
tactics  of  Jerry  Hickey,  or  Dave  Bauer,  or  Greg 
Carter   brought  victory. 

After  a  slow  start  in  which  they  lost  five 
games  before  Christmas,  it  was  a  battle  all  the 
way  for  the  Majors  to  make  a  play-off  spot. 
They  began  in  their  last  game  before  the  holi- 
days, a  smashing  9-4  win  over  Hamilton,  the 
group  leaders  at  that  time.  Tom  O'Neill  with 
his  body-checking  and  Dave  Bauer  with  four 
points  led  the  team  that  day.  They  followed 
that  victory  with  a  7-3  pasting  of  Brantford 
with   Frank   Dunlap,  Cece   Schmalz,   and   Jerry 


Hickey  bagging  the  goals.  The  next  game  was 
one  of  the  finest  of  the  season.  Led  by  Hickey 
again,  the  Majors  came  from  behind  to  score 
twice  in  the  last  period,  to  tie  Oshawa,  but  lost 
out  in  the  last  minute.  Victoiy  over  Young 
Rangers  and  Marlboros  followed,  and  the  race 
for  the  fifth  play-off  position  was  close.  In  what 
was  to  be  the  crucial  game  with  Marlboros  for 
that  position  the  Majors  came  through  with  a 
6-4  win  over  a 
strong  team  which 
had  p  r  e  V  i  o  u  1  y 
beaten  Oshawa  and 
Hamilton.  Going 
into  the  second 
period  two  goals 
behind,  thev  rallied 
to  tie  the  game  on 
goals  by  Schnurr 
and  Schmalz.  and 
went  ahead  on  two 
quick  goals  b\ 
Dunlap,  and  sin- 
gles by  Schnurr  ccc  Schmaiz. 
and     Hickey.       In 

this  game  Greg  Carter  tied  Marlboros  up  in 
knots  with  his  checking  and  set  up  two  goals. 
Their  best  hockey  was  yet  to  come.  The 
withdrawal  of  Barrie  from  the  play-offs  enabled 
Marlboros  to  qualif)'  to  meet  the  Majors  in 
the  first  round.  It  was  a  thrilling  series.  The 
Irish  played  lackadaisically  in  the  first  game, 
and  although  scoring  six  goals,  they  found  at 
the  final  tabulation  that  eleven  were  scored 
against  them.  It  was  no  fluke  victory.  Marl- 
boros were  hot;  they  had  previously  beaten 
Oshawa  in  Oshawa  in  their  play-off  quest.  But 
the  Majors  proved  their  mettle  in  the  next  two 
games.  In  that  pair  of  hockey  masterpieces  the 
team  reached  its  peak.  Marois  played  the  best 
goal  seen  in  the  group  all  season.  O'Neill, 
showing  the  pluck  and  courage  he  personified, 
starred  despite  a  badly  injured  knee.  Time 
after  time  Frank  Bennett  snaked  his  way  out 
of  his  zone  and  sent  his  forwards  on  goal-scor- 
ing thrusts.  George  Dodd  thumped  the  enemy 
mercilessly  and  took  time  out  to  score  two  goals. 
Dave  Bauer  and  Cece  Schmalz  checked  the 
Marlboro  aces  so  effectively  that  Rowe  and 
Beaumont  were  held  to  two  points.  Hickey, 
skating  miles,  combined  with  them  to  lead  the

T"  HH  students  (sluill  we  say.')  iif  XII-1  are 
individualists.  Each  one  is  a  complete 
headache  to  the  teachers.  It  is  only  because  of 
the  strange  constitutions  of  the  teachers  who 
administer  in  this  class  that  the  teaching  staff 
has  not  been  whittled  to  naught  by  nervous 
breakdowns. 

The  first  teacher  to  enter  this  room  is  Mr. 
Moran,  our  Geometry  teacher.  This  is,  per- 
haps, the  most  absorbing  class  of  the  day. 
Paul  Hawley,  Frank  Phillips  and  Ross  Corri- 
gan  listen  intentlv  while  John  Sullivan  runs 
through  the  various  propositions.  All  the  while, 
Mr.  Moran  stands  back  and  beams  broadly, 
not  noticing  Bill  O'Grady  and  Murray  Gibbs 
collaborating  over  the  morning  paper  while 
Frank  Haller  protests  that  he  has  not  yet  seen 
the  sports  page.  But  John  Frezell,  Dave  Hunt 
and  Jim  Scrinies  are  not  so  fortunate  and  soon 
their  newspaper  is  assigned  to  the  waste  basket. 
Alas!  like  all  good  things,  geometry  class  comes 
to  an  end  and  Father  Regan  takes  over  to 
lead  us  through  the  intriguing  intricacies  of  the 
language  of  the  Romans.  John  O'Neill  and 
the  teacher  gaze  admiringly  at  Bill  Dimma  as 
he  expounds  his  version  of  the  translation. 
Pete  McDevitt  and  Martin  0"Lear>'  stand  by, 
only  too  glad  to  correct  him.  Unperturbed 
by  this  display  of  brilliance,  Bern  Wilson  and 
Harry  Tryhorn  agree  that  the  translation  is 
probably  correct,  so  they  commit  it  to  their 
note-books.  Frank  O'Grady  will  probably  bor- 
row it  from  them  later  if  Pete  Beck  doesn't 
get  it  first.  But  the  bell  interrupts  all  this 
and  Fr.  Regan  hurriedly  leaves  the  room  with 
a   relieved    expression   on    his   face. 

As  usual,  silence  reigns  supreme  between 
the  periods  and  in  strides  Father  Dorsey,  with 
an  apprehensive  look  on  his  face.  Dan  Mc- 
Carthy then  comes  in  just  in  time  for  the 
English  period.  There  is  a  dull  thud  in  the 
back  of  the  room  as  Bob  Burns  and  Sam 
O'Hara  put  their  heads  together  over  a  book 
on  the  floor. 

Father  Deimer  is  the  next  professor  to  in- 
vade these  sacred  precincts.  He  carries  a  few- 
French  books  and  is  accompanied  bv  several 
visitors  from  other  forms  who  like  the  com- 
bination of  French  and  XII-1.  Of  course,  bv 
this  time  everyone  is  famished.  Joe  MacNeill 
and  Jack  Carey  produce  their  lunches.     Father 


Deimer  doesn't  mind  this  in  the  least.  He 
loves  to  see  lunch  papers  and  butter  tarts 
strewn  over  the  floor.  Always  ready  to  please, 
the  rest  of  the  class  open  their  lunches,  but 
the  bell  averts  a  major  catastrophe. 

After  a  brief  lunch  period  of  seventy  min- 
utes, XII-1  invades  the  Chemistry  laboratory 
to  study  history.  Mr.  Meyers  objects  strenu- 
ously to  this  end,  after  failing  to  get  a  response 
to  his  appeal  to  our  sense  of  honour,  he  adopts 
the  policy  of  brute  force.  In  no  time  at  all, 
Des  Foley  and  Stan  Zeglen  are  hard  at  work 
over  a  bottle  of  hydrogen  sulphide.  The  rest 
of  the  class  gets  wind  of  it  and  immediately 
evacuate  to  see  how  the  atmosphere  is  in  Father 
Boland's  History  Class.  It  is  a  little  better, 
so  we  stay  there.  Pat  Reynolds  wants  to  leave 
but  Ted  McLean  and  Joe  Kelly  restrain  him. 
Bill  Bradley  wants  to  help  Pat  but  Father 
Boland   tears  them  apart. 

As  the  Religion  Class  is  about  to  begin. 
Bob  Sinclair  and  Tom  Tuck  talk  over  the 
activities  of  the  Don  Bosco  Club,  while  Louis 
Bardwell  wonders  if  the  punch  boards  ever 
pay  off,  even  if  it  is  for  the  Missions. 

But  in  reality,  XII-1  is  not  as  bad  as  it  is 
painted,  and  anything  that  smacks  of  deviltry 
is  purely  coincidental.  On  the  whole,  the  class 
is  as  friendly  as  a  puppy,  regular  as  a  clock, 
and  as  quiet  as  Grand   Central   Station.

The  following  scene  took  place  at  a  meeting  ol  the  teachers  ol  Xn-2,  at  which 
they  discussed  the  merits  and  demerits  of  that  class.  We  regret  to  inform  you 
that  the  source  of  this  information  must  remain  a  secret,  but  it  is  reported  to 
be  generally    unreliable. 


'T'  HE  small  smoke-filled  room  was  illumin- 
ated by  a  solitarv  desk  lamp.  .\n  eerie 
glow  was  cast  over  the  drawn,  distorted  faces 
of  seven  black-rcbed  men  clustered  around  a 
table.  For  hours  the  intense  silence  had  been 
broken  only  bv  the  nerve-wracking  tick-tock 
of  the  clock  as  it  frowned  on  the  little  group 
from  the  wall  above  them.  Then  one  of  the 
men  speaks  in  a  hoarse,  croaking  voice,  "In 
all  my  years  of  teaching  I  have  encountered 
nearly  every  type  of  pupil  but  never  have 
I  .  .  ."  Here  his  words  faded  into  incoherent 
mumblings  and  two  of  his  colleagues  led  the 
broken  man  away.  As  the  two  men  re-enter- 
ed the  room.  Father  Warren  was  speaking. 
"The  climax  in  my  class  came  to-day,  when 
Hector  and  Whyte  claimed  they  couldn't  do 
their  home-work  because  of  the  lack  of  seats 
on  the  street-car.  I  let  that  pass  and  then 
Johnny  Morrison  translated,  'Mon  Dieu  et  mon 
droit'  as  'My  God,  You're  right.'  Even  that 
didn't  phase  me  until  Johnson  and  Reeves 
agreed   with   him." 

"Speaking  of  home-work,"  interjected  Fa- 
ther Regan,  "I  asked  MacKenzie  one  day  why 
he  didn't  have  his  home-work.  He  held  the 
class  spell-bound  for  fifteen  minutes  with  a  talk 
on  the  "Deplorable  Condition  of  Toronto's 
Snow-Covered    Streets.'  " 

"It  happens  in  reverse  in  my  period.  Black. 
Mitchell  and  Gallagher  bombard  me  with 
questions  about  zero  over  zero  when  I  come 
in  and  I  hold  forth  with  an  explanatory  lec- 
ture until  the  happy  students  bowl  me  over 
on  the  way  out  when  the  lunch  bell  rings." 
Father  Faught  made  this  observation  and  set- 
tled back  in  his  chair,  jingling  a  jxjcketful  of 
coins  which  he  had  collected  from  boys  who 
foolishly  bet  that  they  would  pass  in  geometry, 
only  to  get  forty-nine  marks  instead  of  the  re- 
quired fifty. 

Mr.  Kennedy  asserted  in  a  domineering 
voice  that  XII-2  had  never  given  him  any  trou- 
ble. "The  first  day  I  tied  a  crowbar  in  a  knot 
for  them,  and  they  have  been  as  meek  as 
lambs  ever  since.  But  XII-2  has  some  good 
students.      McTague.    Nealon    and    Kane    are 


three  of  the  best  that  you  will  find  any  place." 
Then  he  retired  from  the  meeting,  where  he 
ignited  a  fire  by  rubbing  two  boarders  to- 
gether. 

.\t  this  juncture  the  man  who  had  broken 
down  earlier  re-entered  the  room  and  silently 
took  his  place  at  the  table.  Father  Regan  then 
said  wearily,  "To-day  I  had  just  marked  Ray 
Morris  and  Pete  D'.\gostino  absent,  when  they 
sauntered  in.  discussing  the  merits  of  the  black- 
ball game." 

"Speaking  of  late-comers,"  Father  Pappert 
exclaimed,  "I  didn't  know  that  Pendrith, 
Dewan  or  Ryan  were  in  my  class  until  the 
starting  time  was  changed  from  9  o'clock  to 
9.15. 

"I  had  one  form  of  latecomer  even  worse 
than  that,"  Father  Regan  shot  back.  "I  told 
some  boys  to  see  me  sometime  after  school  when 
they  had  learned  their  homework.  I  was 
awakened  at  the  stroke  of  midnight  by  a 
frenzied  pounding  on  the  door  and  on  opening 
h.  I  found  Clune.  Shelton  and  Rogers  stand- 
ing in  the  corridor  reciting  Latin  in  loud,  clear 
voices." 

"Oh.  but  XII-2  isn't  so  bad,"  replied  Mr. 
Brown,  "they  put  such  zeal  into  their  chemis- 
try experiments!  By  some  of  their  results,  I 
am  sure  that  Breen  and  LaPrairie  are  on  the 
verge  of  completing  some  new  high  explosives 
which  may  be  valuable  to  the  war  effort. 
Stewart  and  O'Halleran  accidently  concocted 
some  new  acid  which  eats  the  pipes  out  of 
your  drainage  system  much  faster  than  any 
acid   previously  formulated." 

Mr.  Pope  wondered  aloud.  "Which  do  you 
supfwse  is  executed  more  skillfully — a  Sadler 
to  McGillivray  pass  which  ends  up  in  Del's 
net  or  a  Smith  to  Stinson  pass  with  some- 
bod)''s  lunch  which  ends  up  in  the  waste 
basket?" 

Suddenly  his  musings  were  interrupted  by 
a  knock  on  the  door.  Father  Warren  opened 
it  and  was  greeted  by  a  messenger  with  a  sing- 
ing telegram.     Quote:

"V"  I  f -^  is  a  very  exceptional  classroom,  as  it 

has  representatives   in  all  activities   and 

can  even  boast  of  one  or  two  scholars;  namely, 

Reg.  Prower,  Jack  Cartwright  and  Jack  Drury. 

Our  practical  joker,  with  all  the  pranks  of 
a  high  school  student,  include  the  effervescent 
Steve  Coatcs,  who  also  docs  no  mean  chore  of 
goaltending  between  the  uprights  of  the  Buzzer 
net,  while  Paul  Pelowe  is  out  there  burning  up 
the  ice  for  the  Midgets.  His  other  accomplices 
are  Jack  MacNamara,  crack-shot  Curtiss  Spcarin 
and  Bill  Flynn.  Another  member  who  could 
be  included  in  this  group,  is  Father  Faught's 
"Zoot-suit"  man  Gregory  Jones  who  has  now 
left  for  the  R.C.A.F. 

St.  Michael's  contribution  to  drama,  is  Gerry 
Pocock,  who  has  been  playing  mad  Russian  ever 
since  "You  Can't  Take  It  With  You,"  and  at 
present  performs  in  radio  dramas  over  the  air 
waves.  Others  being  influenced  by  his  wit  and 
humour  are  Howard  Cash,  our  genial  com- 
mander, and  Bernard  Cryer. 

We  also  have  such  promising  scientists  as, 
silent,  docile  Charlie  Abel,  our  Cuban  repre- 
sentative Tom  MacCaffery  who  has  enough 
medicines  in  his  room  to  start  a  drug  store  on 
the  Jew's  Flat;  and  the  ever  smiling  Ken  Roach. 

In  Mario  Pellizzeri  we  have  a  brilliant  stu- 
dent, who  ably  answers  and  wisecracks  out  of 
turn  in  class,  bounces  the  opposition  into  eter- 
nity for  the  Buzzers,  and  who  also  does  his 
share  in  the  realm  of  music. 

Frank  Aprile  takes  his  daily  boxing  lesson 
from  Bob  Muldoon,  by  sparring  around  between 
periods  and  whenever  they  can  get  in  a  punch 
during  class. 

That  lad  Al.  McLeod  ably  upholds  the  plaid 
colours  for  his  Glengarry  clan;  while  Frank 
Corless  still  tries  to  convince  everybody  that  St. 
Catharine's  is  truly  the  Garden  City  of  Canada, 
and  like  the  rest  of  the  boarders  not  yet  men- 
tioned, namely:  Jim  Kennedy,  that  Math,  and 
History  whizz  from  Port  Colborne;  Ed. 
O'Reilly  the  "wolf"  from  Wolf  Island;  Larry 
Quesnelle  who  comes  from  the  quaint  little  vil- 


lage of  Elmvale;  Jack  Paxton  and  Bill  Cowley 
the  two  late  arrivals  from  Hamilton,  and  last  but 
not  least,  Emmett  Lee,  tall,  dark  and  handsome, 
who  hails  from  Campbcllford,  are  forever  say- 
ing, "How  nice  it  will  be  to  get  back  home  and 
sec  all  the  folks." 

From  the  Redemptorists  we  have  Joe  Mac- 
Lellan  and  Angelo  Tomassini. 

\'incent  O'Donohue  and  John  Howorth  arc 
always  scheming  some  trick  to  pull  on  each 
other,  with  Jack  Howlev  and  George  Kaye  do- 
ing the  same  thing,  while  Jim  Shaughnessey 
plays  the  role  of  a  pacifist. 

Basil  Breen  and  Ed.  La  Rose  are  the  12-3 
representatives  in  Father  Ronan's  choir.  Our 
latest  arrival  is  Bill  O'Reilly,  who  is  a  refugee 
from  the  onslaughts  and  terror  of  12-1.

Schnurr  dutplaycd  their  op[H)nents  iiy  a  wide 
margin.  The  scores  of  those  games  were  6-2, 
and  7-4,  and  these  victories  alone  were  cnongh 
to  make  a  successful  season. 

To  followers  of  St.  Michael's  teams  during 
the  past  six  years,  the  names  of  Hickey,  O'Neill, 


Dave  Bauer. 


Dodd,  and  Bennett  have  been  familiar.  From 
the  Bantams  up  through  the  Minor  teams  to  the 
Buzzers  and  the  Majors  they  have  worn  the 
Double  Blue.  Every  team  they  played  on  was 
a  fighting  team  and  a  contender.  Frank  and 
George  were  Midget  Champions  in  1939.  All 
four  were  Prep  Junior  B  Champions  in  1941. 
This  was  their  last  year  in  junior  hockey,  and 
thev  went  out  in  a  blaze  of  glory.  The  playing 
of  Jerrv  in  the  Marlboro  series  will  be  long  re- 
membered in  St.  Michael's  athletic  annals.  In 
the  same  series  and  in  the  game  at  Gait,  the 
fighting  spirit  of  Tom  O'Neill  lifted  the  team 
to  its  best  effort.  Frank  Bennett  was  a  tower 
of  strength  in  every  game,  and  climaxed  the 
season  with  two  brilliant  goals  at  Gait.  George 
Dodd  played  his  best  hockey  when  the  going 
was  toughest,  and  climaxed  his  six  years  of 
hockey  for  St.  Michael's  by  scoring  three  goals 
in  the  last  game  at  Brantford. 

It  was  Cece  Schmalz's  last  year,  too,  after 
three  years  in  which  he  delighted  St.  Michael's 
fans,  as  a  Buzzer  in  1941.  and  as  a  Major  for 


the  List  two  years.  St.  Michael's  will  long  re- 
member him  as  a  hard-working,  fighting 
winger  who  gave  everything  he  had  in  every 
game.  .\s  he  has  for  many  years  in  St. 
Michael's  goal,  Johnny  Marois  shone  all  season. 
Time  and  again  he  saved  brilliantly.  Greg 
("arler,  a  star  on  every  team  he  has  played  for 
since  he  was  a  Bantam  in  1939,  kept  up  his 
record.  In  play-making  and  deadly  shooting  he 
was  second  to  none.  Dave  Bauer  didn't  play  a 
poor  game  all  season.  With  Jerry  Hickey.  he 
led  the  team  in  scoring,  and  he  excelled  at  back- 
checking.  Bryan  Lynch,  a  powerful  skater,  was 
third  in  scoring  when  he  left  in  March  to  join 
the  Navy.  F'rank  Duniap  came  through  in  the 
play-offs  with  important  goals.  Bob  Schnurr, 
slow  to  start  because  of  a  football  injury,  and 
handicapped  in  playing  his  wrong  wing,  came 
through  with  flying  colours  in  the  important 
last  games.  Jack  Morrison  was  sub-goalkeeper, 
and  though  never  called  upon  to  replace 
Johnny,  he  was  ready,  and  a  faithful  and  valued 
member  of  the  team.  With  many  trips  and 
varied  practice  hours,  the  managers,  Jim  Huck 
and  Murray  Sullivan,  were  kept  busy.  They 
gave  loyal  and  efficient  service  and  contributed 
greatly  to  the   Majors'  success. 

Much  has  been  written  about  this  club  from 
the  standpoint  of  their  hockey  ability.  In  school 
with  these  boys  we  were  able  to  see  an  alto- 
gether different  and  most  admirable  side  of 
them.  We  had  always  imagined  that  when  one 
reached  that  stage  where  he  was  in  the  public 
eye  for  having  performed  some  particidarly  bril- 
liant feat  in  athletics,  he  expected  a  little  glory, 
as  we  call  it  for  want  of  a  better  word.  It  was 
evident  that  these  boys  had  no  such  notions  of 
importance.  They  seemed  to  regard  it  as  a 
privilege  to  be  able  to  play  for  the  school's  first 
team,  and  to  feel  that  they  just  represented 
any  and  all  of  the  other  six  hundred  who  ido- 
lized them,  whose  hearts  were  with  them  in 
every  game,  and  who  were  not  a  little  hopeful 
that  they  too  might  be  out  there  some  day  play- 
ing on  the  Majors.  Most  of  these  boys  have  left 
or  will  soon  leave  school,  many  to  take  their 
places  in  the  greatest  game  of  all,  the  one  that 
must  end  in  a  shut-out  for  our  side.  Jerry 
Hickey,  Paul  McLean,  and  Jim  Huck  have 
joined  the  R.C.A.F.;  Bryan  Lynch  joined  the 
Navy.  Others  will  soon  be  with  them.  We 
hope  they  will  be  with  us  soon  again,  for  we 
look  forward  to  seeing  them  in  higher  hockey 
company.  But  wherever  they  go,  they  will  be

during  the  first  half,  with  neither  team  being 
able  to  penetrate  the  defence  of  its  opporent. 
However,  shortly  after  the  second  half  opened, 
St.  Mikes  opened  up  with  a  passing  attack 
which  saw  Bennett  leap  high  in  the  end  zone 
to  pull  down  one  of  Schnurr's  accurate  heaves 
for  a  major  score.  Then  Johnny  Marois  stepped 
back  and  sent  a  beautiful  placement  squarely 
through  the  uprights  to  put  the  Bay  St.  gang 
in  the  lead  6-0.  Shortly  before  the  end  of  the 
game,  the  Double  Blue  was  throwing  passes 
all  over  the  field  and  one  thrown  by  Marois 
was  pulled  down  by  Bennett  as  he  stepped  over 
the  line,  and  again  the  extra  point  was  made 
and  the  Irish  walked  off  the  field  with  their 
second  victory  in  as  many  games  tucked  away. 
The    only    night    game   of   the    season    was 


ttie  ball  with  his  good  hand. 

With  five  minutes  to  go  in  the  game,  Del 
really  opened  up  and  with  a  sensational  run- 
ning and  passing  offensive,  charged  deep  into 
the  Irish  territory.  The  yardage  gained  by 
their  backfield  was  nullified  time  and  again 
when  the  forward  line  played  off-side.  Del 
did  cross  the  Double  Blue  line,  but  the  play 
was  called  back  for  off-side.  Quite  an  argu- 
ment followed,  and  some  of  the  crowd  swarmed 
on  the  field.  As  a  result  the  game  was  held 
up  and  after  the  field  was  cleared  the  teams 
went  at  it  again.  With  six  yards  to  go  and 
three  downs  to  do  it,  things  still  looked  pro- 
mising for  Del;  but  St.  Mikes  put  up  a  gallant 
goal-line  stand  and  took  over  on  their  own 
twelve-yard  line  after  Del  had  failed  to  move

Senior  High  School  Football 


T  AST  Fall,  under  the  guiding  eye  of  Father 
Whelan,  who  returned  to  St.  Mikes  after 
an  absence  of  two  years,  the  St.  Michael's  High 
School  Seniors  went  out  to  do  or  die  for  the 
honour  of  their  school.  When  our  new  coach 
called  for  practice  last  September,  some  forty 
aspirants  greeted  him,  and  of  these  only  a  few 
had  had  any  Senior  experience.  The  task  of 
building  up  a  top  flight  team  looked  rather 
difficult  at  the  time.  But  as  Coach  Whelan 
remarked.  "With  the  spirit  this  bunch  of  kids 
are  showing  anything  can  happen."  After  a 
strenuous  two  weeks  of  calisthenics  and  gen- 
eral conditioning,  the  squad  was  cut  to  about 
thirty  players  and  the  real  work  of  rounding 
out  the  plays  and  smoothing  the  attack  began. 
It  was  a  weary  and  tired  group  of  boys  that 
trotted  off  the  field  at  the  end  of  the  prac- 
tices, but  obseryers  noticed  a  steady  improve- 
ment as  the  first  game  of  the  season  closed  in 
upon   them. 

On  Thanksgiving  afternoon  the  now  tradi- 
tional Junior  and  Senior  games  with  Malvern 
Collegiate  were  held  at  Pantry  Park  before  a 
crowd  of  4,000.  With  the  Band  in  attendance 
and  the  whole  student  body  cheering  for  the 
initial  victory  of  the  season,  the  Double  Blue 
clad  warriors  were  determined  not  to  let  their 
supporters  down.  During  the  afternoon,  mis- 
takes were  made  but  when  the  opportunity 
showed  itself,  St.  Mikes  grabbed  on  and  scored 
the  only  major  of  the  struggle,  which  was 
enough  to  win  the  game  and  even  the  series 
with  her  traditional  foe.  It  was  a  good  start 
for  a  team  which  had  been  marked  with  a 
question    mark   from   the   beginning. 

The  second  game  of  the  season  was  played 
at  the  Upper  Canada  College  field  against 
the  highly  favored  Vaughan  Road  Col- 
legiate. Play  see-sawed  up  and  down  the  field 
during  the  first  half,  with  neither  team  being 
able  to  penetrate  the  defence  of  its  opporent. 
However,  shortly  after  the  second  half  opened, 
St.  Mikes  opened  up  with  a  passing  attack 
which  saw  Bennett  leap  high  in  the  end  zone 
to  pull  down  one  of  Schnurr's  accurate  heaves 
for  a  major  score.  Then  Johnny  Marois  stepped 
back  and  sent  a  beautiful  placement  squarely 
through  the  uprights  to  put  the  Bay  St.  gang 
in  the  lead  6-0.  Shortly  before  the  end  of  the 
game,  the  Double  Blue  was  throwing  passes 
all  over  the  field  and  one  thrown  by  Marois 
was  pulled  down  by  Bennett  as  he  stepped  over 
the  line,  and  again  the  extra  point  was  made 
and  the  Irish  walked  off  the  field  with  their 
second  victory  in  as  many  games  tucked  away. 
The    only    night    game   of    the    season    was 


played  at  Ulster  Stadium  against  Runnymede 
Collegiate.  The  boys  didn't  play  their  usual 
good  game,  (perhaps  the  night  life  was  too 
much  for  the  Boarders),  and  as  a  result,  suf- 
fered their  first  defeat.  The  Red  clad  team 
from  north  Toronto  played  brilliantly  and  de- 
served victory.  It  was  a  sad  blow  to  the  over- 
confident "Blues"  and  it  meant  that  they  must 
settle  down  to  more  rigorous  drills  for  the 
"BIG"  game  of  the  season. 

None  of  the  younger  generation  can  remem- 
ber De  La  Salle  and  St.  Mikes  meeting  on 
the  gridiron,  but  after  an  absence  of  many 
years  this  game  became  a  reality  this  year. 
It  promised  to  be  a  bitter  and  strenuous  strug- 
gle and  the  large  crowd  that  weathered  the 
inclement  weather  was  not  disappointed.  With 
the  High  School  Band  in  the  lead,  the  Cadets 
— the  whole  student  body — marched  to  the 
scene  of  the  battle — Varsity  Stadium.  Del 
had  a  big  team  and  in  the  pre-game  warm-up 
looked  quite  capable  and  they  proved  this 
shortly  after  the  game  opened. 

Early  in  the  first  quarter  the  Red,  White 
and  Green  clad  warriors  from  Oaklands  tra- 
velled from  deep  in  their  own  territory  to  the 
25-yard  line  of  the  Irish.  There  St.  Mikes 
stopped  their  running  attack  but  could  not 
knock  down  a  placement  which  sailed  through 
the  uprights  to  put  Del  in  the  lead  3-0.  Then 
the  St.  Mikes  cheering  section  opened  up  and 
impressed  upon  its  representatives  that  the 
honor  of  the  Double  Blue  was  at  stake.  The 
Irish  responded  to  the  plea  and  again  a  beau- 
tiful passing  attack  resulted  in  a  touchdown, 
when  Jim  Huck,  playing  with  a  broken  hand, 
pulled  down  a  perfect  strike  from  his  running 
mate  Bob  Schnurr.  It  was  a  remarkable  catch 
that  Jim  made  when  he  leaped  high  and  snared 
the  ball  with  his  good  hand. 

With  five  minutes  to  go  in  the  game,  Del 
really  opened  up  and  with  a  sensational  run- 
ning and  passing  oflensive,  charged  deep  into 
the  Irish  territory.  The  yardage  gained  bv 
their  backfield  was  nullified  time  and  again 
when  the  forward  line  played  off-side.  Del 
did  cross  the  Double  Blue  line,  but  the  play 
was  called  back  for  off-side.  Quite  an  argu- 
ment followed,  and  some  of  the  crowd  swarmed 
on  the  field.  As  a  result  the  game  was  held 
up  and  after  the  field  was  cleared  the  teams 
went  at  it  again.  With  six  yards  to  go  and 
three  downs  to  do  it,  things  still  looked  pro- 
mising for  Del;  but  St.  Mikes  put  up  a  gallant 
goal-line  stand  and  took  over  on  their  own 
twelve-yard  line  after  Del  had  failed  to  move

A  S  dawn  broke  over  ;i  peacefully  sleepiiij; 
city  on  a  certain  September  morn  in  the 
year  of  our  Lord.  1942,  a  group  of  dishearten- 
ed young  men  awoke  to  the  fact  that  they 
were  about  to  launch  themselves  into  another 
semester  of  act,  theory  and  knowledge.  To 
offset  the  disadvantage  of  having  examinations 
all  veai,  there  were  a  certain  few  who  advanced 
to  Grade  XI  without  going  through  the  tor- 
turous series  of  exams  in  the  hot  June  weather. 
All  who  are  back  this  year  are  trying  doubly 
haid  to  be  one  of  the  chosen  few  this  summer. 

In  the  morning  we  have  our  Physics  period 
conducted  by  Father  Ruth.  For  forty  minutes 
new  facts,  new  theories  and  much  forceful 
knowledge  is  brought  to  light.  Many  scenes  of 
humour  and  tragedy  are  enacted  under  the 
domicile  of  experiments. 

"Bean"  .  .  .  "Here,  Father,"  chirps  tiny 
lair-haired  Doug,  a  tremor  of  anticipation  in 
his  voice. 

"Borron"  .  .  .  "Here,  Father,"  booms  a  voice 
decidedly  not  that  of  our  master  of  fiendish 
ideas. 

"Burns"  .  .  .  "Here,  Father,"  this  from  a 
very   auiet  fellow   from    the   rear. 

"Charlie"  .  .  .  "Here,  Father,"  another  fal- 
setto voice — this  time  coming  from  our  jit- 
tery  master  of  the  sea-cadets. 

We  drop  the  curtain  on  this  scene  out  of 
mercy  and  troop  gleefully  to  our  home-room 
opposite  the  clock.  An  uninitiated  one  peeking 
into  our  room  during  the  next  forty  minutes 
would  spy  Father  Diemer  in  charge,  while  Tom 
Selby  is  doing  his  best  to  satisfy  the  Reverend 
Father  with  a  French  translation.  Occasionally 
Tom  needs  assistance,  so  John  O'Connor  comes 
tc  his  rescue  with  some  very  brilliant  answers, 
(Did  I  say  that?) 

When  the  bell  rings  everyone  quickly  pre- 
pares for  the  next  class — and  soon  Father  Whe- 
lan  breezes  in  with  lists,  tickets,  yard-stick, 
measuring  tape  and,  of  course,  his  Algebra 
book.  Roy  DeVaney  still  cannot  understand 
why  there  is  a  "b"  in  the  vocabulary  when 
Father  insists  that  "a"  equals  "b."  Bill  Ken- 
nedy is  one  of  the  stars  in  Algebra  and  along 
with  John  Martyn  and  Fred.  Miller  and  a  few 
others  form  the  class"  collection  of  intelligentia. 

The  last  class  before  noon  is  Latin  and 
Father  Regan  puts  us  through  our  paces  to 
complete  a  strenuous  three-hour  schedule.  Gord 


"Ox"  Thompson,  active  in  many  fields,  man- 
ages to  "dash  off"  some  brilliant  answers, 
much  tc  the  surprise  of  everyone  present.  If 
Gord  fails  to  come  through  for  us.  Jack  Ellard 
is  always  handy  for  reference. 

After  lunch,  our  literary  experts  take  over 
during  the  English  period  with  Mr.  Mulcahey 
directing.  Sparkling  during  this  session  are 
Morin.  writer  of  many  interesting  essays;  Bob 
Mushet  and  Bill  Mahaney,  both  of  whom  are 
gifted  in  the  art  of  discussion  and  argument. 
Glynn,  remote,  yet  noticed,  frequently  offers 
his  suggestions   (usually  under  his  breath). 

At  the  close  of  this  period,  the  Boarders 
(Muir  from  Orangeville;  Powers,  an  Atherley 
import;  O'Leary,  New  York's  pride  and  joy; 
Lee  from  somewhere  east  of  Toronto;  and  Mc- 
Cann  from  Brechin),  dash  for  the  locker- 
room  in  an  effort  to  get  some  books  and  be 
back  in  their  seats  before  Mr.  Lamb  calls  His- 
tory Class  to  order,  Johnny  O'Leary  claims 
it  can't  be  done. 

Active  Ken  Lynett  and  talkative  Joe  Quinto 
arc  quite  happy  since  they  transferred  to  XI-1 
from  XI-3.  Joe  Nolan  is  one  of  the  new- 
comers to  St.  Mikes  and  along  with  Paul 
O'Hara,  quite  a  sportsman,  keep  Mr.  Lamb 
busy  during  the  history  period  with  their  many 
questions. 

The  last  period  of  the  day  finds  Father 
Cullen  putting  us  through  our  religions  paces. 
Here  Nottingham  can  lay  odds  that  he  will  be 
asked  a  question  and  along  with  Symmes  pro- 
vides an  abundance  of  answers. 

It  is  fitting  to  mention  in  the  Religon  section 
01  this  brief  sketch  of  our  class,  XI-l's  contri- 
bution to  the  future  of  the  faith.  The  best 
tribute  to  to-morrow's  world — a  priest.  Those 
who  have  decided  to  follow  closely  in  the  foot- 
steps of  Our  Divine  Saviour  are  our  three  Re- 
demptorist  friends,  Jim  Franks,  Alphonso  Peter 
and  Frank  McGrath.  May  many  others  in  our 
midst  have  the  intention  to  do  likewise. 


THE  MAJORS.

conspicuous  by  their  Christian  Sportsmanship, 
a  subject  in  which  they  were  all  proficient  at

be   forgotten.

D  UMOR  hath  it  that  we  are  known  as  the 
"pep"  boys.  We  don't  know  whether  that 
is  true  or  not,  but  we  like  the  title  and  will 
keep  it.  Eleven-two  is  deservedly  proud  of  the 
fact  that  it  is  well  represented  in  all  the  activi- 
ties about  St.  Michael's  College  School.  Be  it 
in  attendance  at  Benediction,  participation  in 
sports,  or  even  in  scholastic  attainments,  we  are 
happy  to  present  a  few  outstanding  champions 
and  a  room-average  that  is  presentable. 

How  do  you  think  that  the  band  could  be 
so  successful  without  the  representation  from 
eleven-two?  Greg  Tierney,  Gerald  Kirby, 
Frank  Guyett,  Rowan  MacDonald,  and  Joe 
Prendergast  managed  to  tear  themselves  away 
from  their  studies  often  enough  to  bolster  the 
saxophone  section.  As  often  as  they  tried  we 
could  rely  on  George  Hill,  Roy  Drimmie  and 
Tom  Melady  with  their  flugelhorns.  Next  year 
we  hope  to  add  John  Fahey  and  Jim  Marrin 
to  our   band   roll-call. 

We  can  lay  claim  to  some  rather  scholarly 
young  gentlemen.  Roy  Drimmie  has  so  far 
been  our  leader  in  this  field,  but  the  fire  of 
Irish  determination  is  growing  stronger  in  Dan 
Brcnnan,  Jim  Foy,  Jack  Mahon  and  Joe  Pren- 
dergast. And  don't  be  overly  surprised  if  we 
develop  a  real  dark  horse  candidate  in  Gordon 
Ashworth.  Incidentally,  a  little  bird  told  me 
that  two  of  these  youthful  scholars  would  be 
fighting  it  out  for  the  handball  championship 
in  May.     Good  Luck!     Dan  and  Gordon. 

Cheer  and  joy  are  necessary  ingredients  in 
any  group.  We  have  that  old  red-head,  the 
master  of  the  smile,  Armand  Fitzgerald,  to 
supply  our  quota.  Red  sometimes  has  an  ofl 
day  (no  homework),  so  we  then  turn  to  that 
virtuoso  of  wit.  Jack  Kelly.  Sam  Cocomile  has 
quickly  won  his  way  into  our  affections  by  his 
spontaneous  efforts  in  pantomime.  Eddie 
Black  claims  he  could  smile  as  much  and  as 
often  as  any  of  them  if  he  didn't  have  to  get 
up  so  early  in  the  morning.  Fred  Stolte  joins 
Eddie  in  maintaining  that  school  should  begin 
a  trifle  later,  say  around   11   a.m. 

Punctuality  is  a  virtue  not  possessed  by 
everyone,  but  Larry  McGough,  Bill  Smith, 
Frank  Carr  and  Louis  LufK)  have  mastered  it 
already  and  are  well  on  their  way  to  higher 
things  in  life.  The  keen  sense  of  observation 
possessed  by  this  foursome  is  making  them 
more  than  liked  among  their  fellow  classmates. 


Every  group  as  large  as  ours  has  its  ex- 
tremes. We  have  young  men  such  as  George 
Hill  and  John  Marrin  who  enjoy  an  occasional 
prank  amidst  their  activities.  George's  efforts 
on  the  trumpet  have  not  absorbed  his  time  and 
energy  so  much  that  he  does  not  enjoy  a  good 
talk  fiesta.  Johnny  has  gone  so  far  as  to  sponsor 
a  "No  Homework  League."  Frank  Leonard 
said  he  would  need  time  for  due  consideration 
before  signing  up  with  Johnny.  That's  right, 
Frank,  be  cagey.  On  the  other  side  of  the  pic- 
ture Fred  Guerin  and  Gerald  Alcorn  have  de- 
cided that  silence  is  golden.  They  should 
know  because  they  are  reaping  a  rich  harvest 
from  silence  and  observation. 

That  little  bird,  the  voice  of  rumor,  is  in 
again — this  time  with  the  delightful  news  that 
we  have  some  real  social  lights  in  our  midst. 
We  could  easily  guess  some  of  them,  but  never 
Leo  Ryan,  Murray  Rinneard  and  Frank  Doyle. 
I  don't  know  what  to  say,  but  that  queer  little 
bird  says  it  is  true. 

No  class  around  St.  Michael's  would  be 
complete  without  a  few  real  "honest-to-good- 
ness"  Irishmen.  Out  of  the  multitude  of  our 
candidates  one  could  not  pass  over  such  a  stu- 
dent as  Jim  Foy,  with  his  Irish  smile  and  flam- 
ing red  hair.  Brian  Higgins  insists  that  he  is 
a  top  candidate  and  we  have  no  argument  on 
that  point.  That  broad  smile  of  yours  is  proof 
enough,  Brian. 

We  are  around-the-clock  athletes.  In  the 
chilling  months  of  autumn  we  gathered  to 
watch  big  Campbell  McLellan  perform  for  the 
senior  team,  or  perhaps  it  was  Fred  "One  Man 
Gang"  Stolte  on  the  juniors.  The  freezing  win- 
ter months  presented  us  with  Paul  Bracken, 
who  says  that  some  day  he  is  going  to  be  run- 
ning the  T.H.L.,  Jim  Monahan  our  "import" 
from  Peterborough,  or  Warren  Winslow,  our 
athletic  scholar  who  never  knew  the  meaning 
of  the  word  quit.  A  quick  glimpse  into  Maple 
Leaf  Gardens  on  a  Saturday  afternoon  always 
evidenced  the  fact  of  our  loyal  support  to  the 
Majors.  We  could  always  count  on  such 
stalwarts  as  Bob  Walker,  whose  managerial 
ability  is  giving  him  added  renown,  Hugh  Can- 
ning, Dan  Brennan,  Armand  Fitzgerald  and 
Bernard  Stolte.  Bernard  doesn't  say  much,  but 
one  more  year  at  St.  Mikes  and  we  will  back 
him  against  the  field  in  scholarly  attainment.

The  Buzzers 


Tp  HE  BUZZERS  of  1945  were  a  team  of 
which  St.  Michael's  was  justly  proud.  A 
young  team,  they  spotted  their  thief  rivals.  De 
La  Salle  and  U.T.S.,  an  edge  in  weight  and 
experience,  but  beat  the  former  two  out  of  three 
for  second  place,  and  lost  to  the  latter  only 
after  putting  up  a  terrific  fight  in  the  play-ofls. 
The  team  was  made  up  of  last  year's  Midget 
Champions,  four  of  whom. — Ted  McLean,  Pat 
Powers,  Paul  Kane,  and  Steve  Coates. — were 
still  of  midget  age,  and  two  veterans.  Bus  Sad- 
ler and  Ray  Midghall.  Father  Whelan  relied 
on  Pat  and  Ted  for  regular  duty  on  defence, 
with  Mario  Pellizzari  and  Ray  Nlidghall  as  al- 
ternates. Up  forward,  Joe  Marzalik  was 
Hanked  by  Joe  Sadler  and  Doug.  McGillivray  or 
Pete  D'Agostino;  and  Paul  Kane,  by  Bus  Sadler 
and  Jack  Geary.  John  Bennett  and  Steve 
Coates  shared  the  goal-keping.  It  was  a  smart 
line-up. 

They  opened  the  schedule  by  trimming 
U.C.C.,  6-1.  Joe  Marzalik  and  Joe  Sadler  got 
four  points,  starting  a  pace  that  made  them  the 
leading  scorers  of  the  team,  and  the  first  Joe  the 
leader  of  the  group.  Ted  and  Pat  served  notice 
that  the  path  to  their  goal  was  going  to  be  a 
tough  and  bumpy  one.  Doug.  McGillivray 
made  his  presence  known  with  two  goals;  Bus 
Sadler  and  Jack  Geary  got  one  apiece.  De  La 
Salle  were  the  next  victims.  Both  teams  had 
pointed  for  this  one  and  it  was  a  thriller.  Tied 
at  the  end  of  twenty  minutes,  St.  Michael's  went 
ahead  on  a  goal  by  Ted,  and  stayed  ahead  on 
goals  by  Doug  and  Jack.  The  whole  team  was 
Hying  and  richly  deserved   the  -4-2  victory. 

With  two  wins  thus  tucked  away,  the  Buz- 
zers moved  in  on  L'.T.S.  Without  Pat  Powers, 
they  outplayed  their  older  rivals  for  fifty 
minutes,  dominated  the  play  with  their  speed 
and  checking,  and  were  leading  2-1  on  goals 
by  "Muzz"  and  Doug.  But  U.T.S.  put  on  a 
furious  offensive,  scored  two  goals  and  won. 
It  was  a  tough  one  to  lose.  "Big  Hips"  Mc- 
Lean scintillated  again,  playing  almost  full  time 
and  without  his  partner.  On  St.  Michael's 
Night  the  Buzzers  had  a  fighting  De  La  Salle 
team  for  opposition  and  lost  7-5.  For  sustained 
action  and  goals,  it  was  a  grand  game.  The 
Buzzers  came  from  behind  four  times  to  tie 
the  score;  Muzz.  Doug,  and  Paul,  and  Joe 
Sadler  being  the  marksmen.  Marzalik's  goal, 
and    Kane's    second    goal   both    on    solo    rushes 


were  the  prettiest  of  the  season.  But  Del  were 
battling  and  they  went  ahead  on  two  goals  in 
the  last  period.  Once  again  the  team  was 
below  full  strength,  playing  without  Ted  Mc- 
Lean. The  next  game  was  against  U.T.S. ,  and 
it  was  a  6-3  loss,  the  third  in  a  row.  Joe  Sadler. 
Kane,  and  McLean  got  goals,  but  the  team  as 
a  whole  was  off  form  and  L'.T.S.  were  clicking. 
U.C.C.  were  the  unlucky  ones  to  have  to 
face  the  Buzzers  on  the  rebound.  They  were 
walloped  9-3,  and  St.  Michael's  were  off  on  a 
four-game  winning  streak  in  which  they  de- 
feated  U.C.C.  twice,  and  De  La  Salle,  and 
U.T.S.  Joe  Marzalik  added  four  points  to  his 
total  against  U.C.C;  McLean  was  well  again 
and  got  two  goals.  The  rest  of  the  scores  were 
distributed  as  the  whole  team  got  back  on  the 
beam.  This  win  put  St.  Michael's  and  De  La 
Salle  in  a  tie  for  second  place.  Few  who  saw 
this  third  meeting  of  the  old  rivals  will  forget 
it.  It  was  a  brilliant  victory  and  assured  the 
team  of  the  plav-ofT  position.  Joe  Marzalik 
and  Paul  Kane  started  the  scoring,  and  at  the 
end  of  the  second  period  it  was  2-2.  Then  on 
goals  by  Bus  Sadler.  Pat  Powers,  and  Joe  Sadler, 
the  Buzzers  went  well  ahead.  Two  penalties 
in  quick  succession  in  the  last  five  minutes  hit 
the  team,  and  Del  rapped  in  two  quick  goals. 
But  a  great  defence  held  them  off  in  the  re- 
maining minutes  and  the  final  score  was  5-4. 
Then  came  the  game  against  L'.T.S.  and  the 
sweetest  victory  of  the  season.  This  team  was 
undefeated  in  eight  straight  games,  and  was 
leading  2-0  going  into  the  second  period.  Then 
the  Sadler  brothers  went  to  work.  Bus  got  the 
lone  goal  of  the  second  period,  and  came  back 
with  another  in  the  third  to  tie  the  game. 
Thirty-five  seconds  later,  Joe  got  one,  and  Joe 
Marzalik  made  it  4-2.  U.T.S.  rallied  strongly 
to  tie  the  game,  but  Joe  Sadler  came  through 
with  the  winning  goal,  and  assisted  Pete 
D'Agostino  with  another  for  good  measure.  It 
was  6-4.  and  a  great  win.  The  last  game  of 
the  schedule  was  an  11-5  romp  over  Upper 
Canada.  In  the  scoring  parade,  Pete,  Muzz, 
Joe,  Bus.  and  Paul  bagged  two  goals  apiece, 
and  Ted  added  the  odd  one.  It  made  three 
out  of  three  from  U.C.C. 

In   the  play-offs   the   Buzzers  succumbed   in 
two  straight  to  the  strong  U.T.S.  team.     They 
were  outplayed  but  never  outfought,  battling  to

Unforunately.  there  is  a  sad  note  in  this  year's 
view  of  XI-.?,  for  two  former  classmates  .  .  . 
Eddie  Ayerst  and  Mike  Kwankin  .  .  .  have 
died.  We  ask  the  students  and  all  readers  to 
remember  these  two  boys  in  their  prayers. 


'TTHIS  year's  edition  of  XI-3  has  collected  such 
a  versatile  variety  of  veterans  and  talented 
troup  of  tramps  that  mere  words  cannot  do 
justice  to  our  assembly  of  athletes,  scholars,  and 
all-round   St.    Michael's   boys. 

If  a  window  cleaner  were  ever  to  trespass  upon 
the  sacred  ground  of  S.M.C.  (an  utter  impossi- 
bility), his  life  would  be  made  immensely  hap- 
pier after  only  one  glance  into  XI-3.  But  may 
we  give  here  a  window  cleaner's  view  of  XI-3.- 
If  so,  we  warn  you  to  fasten  your  safety  belt 
and  hang  on.   Here  we  go! 

As  he  looks  through  the  window,  our  friend 
beholds  the  beaming  countenance  of  .\lex 
Millar.  His  first  duty  every  morning  is  to  slip 
Father  Whelan  a  piece  of  chalk  and  to  keep 
him  well  supplied  for  the  next  forty  minutes. 
Directly  behind  .\lex  is  Jack  Williams,  our  big, 
be-speckled  bruiser  who  bounces  one  and  all 
on  the  ice  lanes;  Dick  Frankowski,  whose 
smooth  exits  have  everyone  baffled;  and  Eric 
Jensen   with  his  comb. 

Down  in  the  dark  corner  of  our  room,  he 
might  be  able  to  discern  such  shining  lights  as 
Art  Howorth,  Bill  Cooke  (affectionatelv  dubbed 
"Cookie"  by  Father  Boland).and  Ron  Warner 
in  a  recumbent  position  discussing  with  red- 
haired,  rotund  Alec  MacLean  the  merits  of  the 
hockey  teams. 

An  obstruction  in  his  line  of  vision  would 
be  the  sight  of  Jack  Gearv,  he  of  "Buzzer" 
fame,  leaning  over  to  tap  "Tiny"  Clarke  gently 
with  a  club.  After  the  windows  had  stopped 
vibrating,  the  window  cleaner's  glance  travel- 
ling up  from  the  corner,  might  fall  upon  Frank 
Carr,  whose  right  answers  at  the  wrong  time 
invariably  spell  trouble;  or  Murray  Rinneard, 
whose  apparent  interest  in  all  subjects  is  very 
deceiving  and  .  .  .  Paul  Bracken  the  only  day 
student-boarder  in   the  school. 


Our  friend's  next  glance  would  encompass 
Tony  Nadal,  upon  whom  we  all  depend  for  the 
morning  paper  and  news  of  a  St.  Mike's  vic- 
tory. Then  there  is  Mike  Lawrence  who  piloted 
his  team  to  the  Senior  House  League  Rugby 
Championship;  and  "Ding"  Ingoldsby  who  has 
been  placed  near  the  teacher's  desk  for  obvious 
reasons.  Behind  "Ding"  is  John  Richards,  our 
class-treasurer  and  style-setter;  Bill  Dalglish, 
our  best  authority  on  war  news.  Tom  Sanci 
shines  at  his  brightest  during  the  Algebra 
period  (we  wonder  why).  By  the  second  period 
in  the  morning,  Mel  Rouleau  is  so  wide  awake 
that  he  even  takes  out  his  books.  Next  to  Mel 
is  Pat  Callon  to  whom  we  are  indebted  for 
many  gay  moments  at  the  back  of  the  room. 

A  quiet,  but  well-liked  classmate  is  Jimmy 
Blastorah,  who  talks  quietly  but  dresses  loudly. 
In  this  corner,  we  have  our  two  "Dave's."  Dave 
Leigh  thinks  that  school  would  be  almost  pleas- 
ant if  there  were  no  Latin  verbs.  Dave  Bauer 
was  an  outstanding  back  on  the  Senior  Rugby 
team  and  one  of  the  most  effective  players  on 
the  "Majors."  Coming  down  the  outside  row  is 
"Put  up  or"  Smith  from  New  Toronto;  and 
two  boarders,  lucky  chaps,  Harry  Phillips,  who 
does  well  when  the  reports  are  handed  out, 
and  Frank  Chiaramonte,  who  plays  a  "hot"  sax 
in    the  School   Band. 

From  the  wild  and  woolly  west  come  "Long 
Branch"  Browne  and  "Mimico"  Harrison.  Mike 
Mallon  is  next  and  he  has  distinguished  (?) 
himself  by  beating  opposing  forwards  to  the 
puck  on  the  ice,  and  by  "beating  the  breeze"  in 
the  classroom.  Beside  Mike  is  Pete  Kehoe  whose 
good  -  natured  disposition,  along  with  his 
wit,  wisdom  and  excellent  home-work,  is  ap- 
preciated by  all.  Behind  Pete  sits  Rudy  Nagel, 
who  hails  from  the  thriving  hamlet  of  Weston. 
He  is  as  regular  as  clockwork  (at  coming  late). 

However,  returning  to  our  friend,  the  win- 
dow cleaner,  we  will  no  doubt  find  that,  after 
viewing  such  a  fine  collection  of  industrious  in- 
mates, he  is  impatient  to  meet  each  and  every- 
one of  them  personally  and  will  therefore 
hasten  to  our  door.  If  you  would  care  to  ac- 
company him.  you  will  be  received  there  by 
Pat  Gravelle,  doorkeeper  of  XI-3.

Junior  Hi^h  School  Football  Team 


'npO   conclude   a   highly   successful   season,   St. 

Mikes  Junior  football  team  decisively  de- 
feated at  Hamilton  a  team  that  was  the  pick  of 
all  Junior  clubs  of  that  district. 

Prior  to  this  the  team  had  dropped  only 
two  decisions,  one  to  a  more  experienced  Mal- 
vern team.  T.S.S.A.A.  Champions,  when  high- 
scoring  Pete  McParland  was  injured  early  in 
the  first  half;  and  one  to  a  far  older  and  heavier 
Ftobicoke  club.  T.D.I. I.  Champions. 

Although  during  the  season  the  team  won 
many  fine  victories,  some  by  a  wide  margin, 
some  closely  contested,  by  far  the  most  pleasing 
in  the  eyes  of  the  team  and  St.  Mikes  supporters 
and  certainly  the  most  hard-fought  was  the 
game  against  Upper  Canada  Senior  B"s.  In  the 
first  half,  the  hard-driving,  fast  Upper  Canada 
Seniors  made  easy  gains  and  confidently  left 
the  field  at  half-time  with  a  lead  of  10  points. 
However,  from  the  kick  off  in  the  second  half, 
inspired  by  the  old  St.  Mikes  fight,  the  Irish 
began  to  drive.  Behind  a  fast-charging  line, 
flawlessly  executed  passing  plays  kept  the  Irish 
in  almost  constant  possession  of  the  ball.  By 
the  sheer  fight  and  drive  of  the  backfield,  and 
the  body-bruising  blocks  of  the  line,  St.  Mikes 
twice  marched  up  the  field,  through  and  over 
the  heavier  bodies  of  the  U.C.C.  players.  In 
the  dying  moments  of  the  game,  Reynolds  con- 
verted McParland's  second  touchdown  to  win 
the  cleanest  and  most-deserved  victory  of  the 
year. 

Leading  this  fighting  team  was  Captain  and 
Quarterback  Johnny  Durand,  calling  the  plays 
cleverly,  handling  the  ball  faultlessly  and  run- 
ning back  kicks  brilliantly.  Helping  to  sim- 
plify his  task,  Johnny  had  as  halfbacks  driving 
Jim   Zavitsky    and    plunging  Pete    McParland. 


Fleet-footed  Jack  Bedard  and  Andy  Hamill 
often  ploughed  through  opposing  lines  from  the 
full-back  position.  The  accurate  passes  of  Sam 
O'Hara  and  Pat  Reynolds  usually  fell  into  the 
waiting  arms  of  Pat  Gravelle  and  George 
Scholes.  speedy  backfielders.  Paul  Bracken  was 
invaluable  as  assistant  coach  and  even  found 
time  to  relieve  at  any  backfield  post. 

On  the  line  the  Centre  duties  were  handled 
by  "Cowboy"  Bud  Dwan.  a  vicious  tackier,  as- 
sisted by  the  Kelly  boys.  Jack  and  Jim.  Ar- 
rayed at  each  side  of  the  Centre  were  such 
beefy  blockers  and  body-bruising  bashers  as 
Jerry  DesLauriers,  Harry  Philips,  Jack  Bremner. 
Tony  McGraw,  Hugh  Bowman,  Jerry  Holland 
and  Jimmy  Douglas.  Roy  Ettles  and  Fred 
Stolte  specialized  in  clipping  out  opposing  ends. 
At  the  extreme  ends  of  the  line  were  Johnny 
Ryan,  Ron  Warner,  Bob  Pendrith,  Jack  Robert- 
son, and  Ray  Morris.  These  boys  travelled  far 
and  fast  to  snare  forwards  from  the  deadly  arms 
of  Jack  Durand.  O'Hara  and  Reynolds  and  to 
stop  dead  any  unsuspecting  opponents  who 
attempted   to   skirt   the  ends. 

Even  with  such  formidable  strength,  offen- 
sively and  defensively,  the  highly  successful 
season  is  a  great  credit  to  the  entire  squad  who 
worked  so  whole-heartedly  during  the  season 
to  attain  the  speed,  condition  and  smoothness  in 
play,  which,  coupled  with  their  fighting  spirit, 
made  them  almost  unbeatable.  This  team  lost 
only  two  games  in  eight  played,  scored  96 
points  against  43  and  gained  the  admiration  of 
all  opponents  with  their  flaming  courage  and 
fight.  The  members  of  the  team  enjoyed  a 
great  season  as  Juniors  this  year.  Keep  a  close 
watch  for  many  of  them  in  the  ranks  of  the 
Seniors  next  year.

to  prove  it  as  we  hear  the  bell  for  Benediction. 
Off  we  go  to  Church.

Ten-One 


C  OME  institutions  attract  visitors  by  a  hand- 
some facade,  and  once  admitted,  these 
people  are  often  impressed  bv  a  luxuriously  ap- 
pointed foyer.  Not  so  at  Saint  MichaePs  High 
School.  Instead  of  such  superficial  ornamen- 
tations, the  school  officials  have  wiselv  placed 
"TEN-ONE"  just  inside  and  to  the  right,  fac- 
ing the  High  School  entrance.  Just  a  glance 
at  the  sparkling  atmosphere  of  this  room  would 
compel  the  visitor  to  enter,  and  once  in  he  could 
not  but  be  impressed.  Of  course,  with  due 
modesty,  we  grant  that  other  rooms  have  plentv 
in  them  to  attract  and  impress  them,  but  we 
"humbly"  believe  that  it  was  not  mere  chance 
that  caused  our  room  to  be  placed  so  promi- 
nently on  the  first  floor. 

Now  let  me  prove  my  point  bv  presenting 
the  gems  that  cause  all  the  sparkle  and  glow- 
in  this  area.  Taking  first  things  first,  we  pre- 
sent to  you  the  two  leading  scholars  of  the 
Tenth  Grade — Doug.  Archer  and  Ed.  Truhlar. 
These  two  set  the  pace  in  studies,  and  a  mean 
pace  it  is,  too;  but  not  content  with  that,  they 
take  a  prominent  part  in  every  phase  of  school 
life.  Bill  Broadhurst,  Jim  Keenan  and  Pat 
Burns  would  qualify  as  the  staunches!  sup- 
porters any  hockey  team  could  desire — no  game 
was  complete  without  them.  Not  satisfied  with 
mere  cheering,  all  three  were  active  in  various 
sports  and  other  school  activities,  and  still  find 
time  to  be  honour  students.  The  flaming  shock 
of  red  hair  that  moves  as  rapidly  and  restlessly 
as  any  sputtering  candle  light  belongs  to  Paul 
Harris — life  is  a  royal  road  to  romance  for 
Paul.  Man  of  the  roads;  scholar:  athlete;  irre- 
pressible and  indomitable  in  class  room  debate, 
Paul  is  constantly  looking  for  new  worlds  to 
conquer;  and  is  conquering  them. 

Bill  Kotyck  rules  the  world  of  art  for  TEN- 
ONE;  his  cartoons  are  a  feature  of  the  Don 
Bosco  Club  publication,  and  they  contributed  a 
great  deal  to  the  crowd-gatherings  at  the  hockey 
games.  Music  is  one  of  the  finer  arts,  and 
TEN-ONE  is  copiously  supplied  with  musicians 
whose  talents  can  be  praised  no  better  than  by 
stating  that  they  are  already  full-fledged  mem- 
bers of  the  Saint  Michael's  School  Band.  George 
Alsop,  Bill  Dennis  and  Paul  de  Souza  respond 
with  rare  skill  when  Mr.  Borre  raises  his  baton. 
Lest  you  think  that  this  room  is  just  a  col- 
lection of  individual  luminaries,  let  me  interrupt 
myself  to  tell  you  that  TEN-ONE,  working  as 


a  smooth  team,  won  the  annual  drill  competi- 
tion at  the  University  Armouries.  But  to  pro- 
ceed with  the  work — you  will  find  the  reserve 
army  represented  here,  too,  in  the  person  of 
Leon  La  Prairie  (Toronto  Irish)  and  Roy 
Ettles. 

Now,  no  room  at  St.  Michael's  would  be 
complete  without  a  few  stars  from  the  sport 
world;  and  here  we  have  Rudy  Kozel,  rugged 
linesman  for  the  Senior  High  football  team; 
Pete  McParland  who  would  easily  rate  "four 
stars"  in  any  of  the  sports  that  he  has  tried  so 
far  while  wearing  the  "Double  Blue,"  namely: 
Football,  Hockey,  and  Baseball.  And  Pete, 
too,  finds  that  sports  do  not  interfere  with  an 
excellent  scholastic  standing.  Grant  Murphy 
and  Basil  Orsini  were  bright  lights  on  the  cur- 
rent Midget  team  that  went  to  the  "finals"  in 
the  Toronto  Hockey  League.  Hugh  Proud- 
love  and  Dennis  Rowan  figured  prominently  on 
the  rugby  team  that  won  the  Senior  House 
League,  and  in  the  class  room  they  contribute 
no  little  bit  to  the  lighter  side  of  school  life  in 
a  way  that  brings  smiles  and  good  spirits  to  the 
members  of  our  "Happy  Gang."  Gerry  Moran 
is  another  member  of  our  clan  who  has  shown 
a  fleet  pair  of  heels  on  the  gridiron  and  a  flash- 
ing pair  of  skates  on  the  ice. 

ClifT  Olmstead  brought  his  brains  and 
brawn  to  contribute  to  the  success  of  the  school 
as  an  indispensable  member  of  the  stage  crew. 
Howard  Doty  and  Pat  Slynne  possess  that  gift 
of  a  "happy-go-lucky,"  "take-it-as-it-comes."  dis- 
position. They  brighten  the  atmosphere  of  the 
class  at  all  hours  of  the  day.  The  keenness  of 
their  wit  is  reflected  by  the  good  marks  that 
they  acquire  on  every  examination.  Murray 
Dalglish,  Bob  Enright  and  Harry  Balfour  run 
the  "wag"  department  when  Doty  and  Slynne 
pause  for  breath. 

It  is  getting  so  now  that  every  room  has  to 
have  someone  from  Mimico;  so  Jim  Bastable, 
Vine  Courtmanche  and  John  Gahagan  oblig- 
ingly dropped  into  TEN-ONE  to  bring  the 
welcome  air  of  the  suburbs  into  our  midst.  Jack 
Whitaker,  Ed.  Moran  and  Gordon  Borron  are 
the  "big  little  men"  who  form  the  sturdy  basis 
of  any  complete  society,  and  they  contribute 
more  than  their  bit  to  every  activity  that  comes 
their  way.

Ten-Two  Is  Glad  to  Meet  You 


TJS  FRK  thcv  arc  fellows — forty  dynamos  of 
high  school  vim,  vigor,  and  vitality,  strung 
out  through  fourteen  letters  of  the  alphabet, 
though  over-working  the  "Mc's"  a  bit.  If  there 
is  anyone  you  do  not  know  just  watch  for  these 
characteristics  and  you  will  recognize  the 
stranger  at  first  glance. 

First  with  a  cheerful  disposition  is  Bill  Bar- 
rack who  some  day  may  grace  an  army  barracks. 
New  to  us  this  year  follows  Tom  Benns;  but 
he  has  made  new  friends  by  the  tens.  Comes 
John  Brown  of  stature  small;  but  with  ambition 
that  simply  appals.  In  hockey  we  have  Hilliard 
Carter  than  whom  there  is  not  one  smarter. 
For  hockev  and  rugby  there  is  not  a  real  fan, 
who  complains  of  doughty  Chapman.  Coming 
from  Timmins  up  north,  Al  Chinn,  with  words 
that  are  sound  the  arguments  wins.  "Chubby" 
Coughlin,  the  quiet,  surprises  you  with  his 
brainy  might.  King  Arthur  Crompton  at  a 
round  table,  to  take  any  man  is  clearly  able.  If 
more  could  be  desired  at  football,  it  is  Cudmore 
would  carry  the  ball.  We  pray  that  in  his 
tricky  gymnastics,  Cuneo  never  will  see  the 
doctor  plastic.  When  it  is  a  matter  of  finding 
the  point  of  discussion,  Dinely  sees  it  and  stops 
professional  combustion.  Donnelly,  Jim,  sits  by 
the  door,  a  sturdy  lad,  both  feet  on  the  floor. 
When  all  is  said  and  done,  to  follow  Bill  Dunn, 
you  will  have  to  get  up  and  keep  on  the  run. 
Dwan — of  speeches  and  plays,  called  "Bud," 
finds  his  chief  interest  in  good  old  fudge.  Fitz- 
gerald in  making  end-runs  the  best,  in  collect- 
ing the  papers  does  leave  the  rest.  The  local 
editor  is  Fullerton,  whose  weighty  words  come 
by  tons.  Jack  Hazel,  good  at  crashing  the  cym- 
bals, does  as  well  with  .\lgebraic  svmbols.  Hig- 
gins  of  silken,  but  flaming  red  hair,  with  Fred 
Dinely,  makes  a  fine  pair.  A  "plugger"  sure  is 
Kirby,  though  in  antics  a  little  Herbv.  Truest 
to  the  double-blue,  is  the  boy  John  Klue.  "Le 
Francois,"  you  might  say.  "is  French."  "Pas  de 
tout!     II  est  Canadien." 

When  you  come  to  deal  with  the  "Mc's,"  six 
in  all,  you  are  tempted  at  each  to  take  a 
"whack."  However — John  McCarthy  is  so 
quiet,  you  would  never  know  he  can  really 
fight.  Leo  McCormick  of  visage  somewhat 
sombre,  in  hidden  wells  deep  thoughts  does 
ponder.  McDonough  of  irrespressible  disposi- 
tion, will  surely  get  a  salesman's  position. 
Daniel    McGarrell    to    work,    last    summer,    did 


set;  hut  back  to  school  he  was  glad  to  get.  Mc- 
Gouran  sure  is  an  Irish  name,  to  which  our  Pat 
does  bring  good  fame.  Murray  McLaughlin 
with  the  worried  look,  has  brought  too  much 
upon  his  books. 

Behold  Gerald  Masters  of  great  renown,  and 
of  good  cheer  that  nothing  can  drown.  Mor- 
rissey  is  a  soft  sounding  name,  and  a  smile  as 
soft  beams  from  his  face  all  the  while.  Joe 
Nealon  in  history  the  best,  still  now  and  then 
the  books  does  rest.  Nichols,  a  sign  painter  of 
merit,  his  talented  brush  we  all  do  share  it. 
Thomas  O'Toole  doth  hold  in  abhorrence,  all 
the  OToole  did,  known  as  St.  Lawrence. 
Arthur  Peters,  a  new  comer  in  our  midst,  with 
even  temper  dispels  the  mists.  When  asked, 
"My  boy,  are  you  badly  failin'r"  "No  sir,"  he 
replied,  "I'm  young  Hubert  Phelan."  At  hockey 
as  quick  as  "Jack  Robinson,"  is  our  own  speedy 
John  Robertson.  The  first  name  of  long-legged

The  Midgets 


pRKP  (ttoup  Champions  and  finalists  in  the 
Toronto  Hockev  League,  the  Midgets  of 
194?  were  as  fighting  a  team  as  St.  Michael's 
had  in  any  scries.  With  no  previous  midget 
experience,  they  finished  second  in  the  group, 
knocked  off  U.T.S.  in  two  straight  games, 
battled  Corpus  Christi  in  seven  games  to  win 
the  semi-finals,  and  lost  in  the  finals  to  a  big- 
ger and  more  experienced  team. 

When  the  season  opened,  prospects  for  a 
good  team  looked  dreary.  With  all  of  last 
year's  midgets  playing  for  the  Buzzers,  George 
Rebstock,  the  coach,  had  to  mould  a  team  from 
the  19-42  minor-midgets,  Paul  Pelow,  Johnny 
Durand,  Basil  Orsini,  Hilliard  Carter,  Pat  Rey- 
nolds, Jerry  Hector,  Grant  Murphv,  Jack  Wil- 
liams, Bernard  Holland;  and  the  new  material, 
Jim  Monahan,  Bud  Dwan,  Mike  Mallon,  and 
Jack  Bremner.  Starting  slowly,  they  were  not 
impressive  in  their  group  games.  But  after 
tieing  De  La  Salle  in  the  first  game,  they  beat 
them  4-1  in  the  crucial  game,  to  take  second 
place,  a  play-off  position.  It  was  at  this  point 
that  the  Midgets  began  to  show  their  fight  and 
class.  After  a  long  lay-off,  they  met  U.T.S.  at 
Varsity  Arena.  With  Jerry  Hector  blanking  the 
enemy.  Carter  and  Orsini  banged  in  the  goals 
for  a  2-0  win.  The  second  game  was  played 
at  Maple  Leaf  Gardens,  and  again  the  Irish 
outplayed  by  a  wide  margin  a  L'.T.S.  team 
fighting  against  elimination.  The  score  was 
5-2.  The  large  ice  surface  was  perfect  for  Paul 
Pelow  who  bagged  two  goals  and  assisted 
Johnny  Durand  on  another.  Grant  Murphy 
and  Bas  Orsini  got  the  others,  and  Jack  Brem- 
ner  and   Carter   shone  defensively. 

Entering  the  T.H.L.  playdowns,  they  met 
the  strong  C.Y.O.  Champions,  Corpus  Christi. 
In  the  first,  the  Irish,  without  Orsini  and  Rey- 
nolds, were  down  5-0  at  the  end  of  the  period, 
and  though  they  rallied  strongly  on  goals  by 
Paul  and  Johnny,  they  lost  7-2.  Elimination 
looked  certain,  but  the  team  had  only  begun  to 
fight.  In  three  successive  games  they  tied  Cor- 
pus Christi  1-1,  3-3,  and  5-5.  They  led  in  the 
second  game  on  a  goal  by  Johnny.  They  came 
from  behind  on  St.  Michael's  Night  on  goals 
by  Mike  Mallon,  Pat  Reynolds,  and  Hilliard 
Carter,  after  being  two  goals  down,  to  tie  i-i. 
In  the  fourth  game  with  only  two  minutes 
remaining,  Johnny  Durand  got  his  third  goal  of 
the   night   to   keep   them   in    the   running.      Jim 


Monahan  got  the  other  two,  and  Paul  Pelow 
piled  up  four  assists.  Sparked  by  the  battling 
of  Bud  Dwan  and  stellar  goal-keeping  of  Jack 
Bremner,  the  Midgets  scored  a  decisive  win  in 
the  next  game,  4-1.  Again  Paul  and  Johnny 
accounted  for  six  points  between  them.  The 
sixth  game  in  this  marathon  series  was  a  thrill- 
ing one.  The  whole  team  played  brilliantly, 
and  with  Jim  Monahan  and  Hilliard  Carter 
getting  the  goals,  emerged  winners  by  a  score 
of  2  to  1. 

Chewie's  Aces  were  the  opponents  in  the 
final  series.  St.  Michael's  got  ofl  to  a  bad  start 
in  the  first  game,  trailed  at  the  end  of  the 
period,  but  outplayed  their  opponents  in  the 
secoond  period  and  were  unlucky  to  lose  2-1. 
Carter  was  the  marksman.  In  the  final  in  spite 
of  three  goals  by  Durand  and  Pelow,  they  went 
down  fighting  by  a  score  of  5-5.  Thus  ended 
a  splendid  season  for  the  Midgets.  The  leading 
scorers  on  the  team  were  Paul  Pelow  at  centre 
and  Johnny  Durand  at  right  wing.  Between 
them  they  scored  seventeen  goals  in  the  play- 
offs. They  were  ably  assisted  on  left  wing 
by  Grant  Murphy  in  the  group  games  and  by 
Jim  Monahan  in  the  play-offs.  Alternating  on 
the  second  line  were  Bud  Dwan,  scrappy 
centre,  Bernie  Holland,  Mike  Mallon,  and  Pat 
Reynolds.  Hilliard  Carter  and  Basil  Orsini 
-besides  being  defensive  stalwarts — scored  some 
valuable  goals  in  the  play-offs.  Jack  Bremner 
played  goal  in  the  semi-finals  and  finals  and 
played  it  well.  As  Buzzers  next  year  they  will 
be  hard  to  beat.

Ten-Three 


/^  NF  beautiful,  warm  day  in  the  sunny  Eng- 
^'^  land  of  long  ago.  Bill  Shakespeare,  reclin- 
ing comfortably  in  the  cool  shade  of  an  old 
yew  tree,  murmured  to  himself,  "We  are  the 
stuff  which  dreams  are  made  of";  it  is  said  that 
he  was  thinking  of  a  line  for  a  play,  but  it  could 
have  been  that  he  was  foreseeing  none  other 
than  our  own  Ten-Three.  For  within  these 
four  walls  you  can  find  the  brilliance,  the 
variety,  the  unexpected — all  the  elements  that 
go  to  make  up  a  pleasant  dream  and  a  happy 
school  room. 

Without  hesitation  we  give  the  title  of  best 
scholar  to  Jim  Prentice  who  excels  in  every 
study,  but  like  a  true  leader  he  wears  his  laurels 
modestly,  insisting  that  he  "just  can't  help  it." 
Bob  Colucci  is  undoubtedly  the  largest  bov  in 
the  room  but  his  brains  must  be  in  a  proportion 
to  his  body  for  he  is  one  of  our  leading  students, 
and  his  ready  smile  is  as  broad  as  his  frame. 
Walter  Hanson  is  another  prominent  member 
of  our  justly  famous  "Brain  Trust."  That  was 
Neil  Smith  who  plaved  one-half  of  the  spark- 
ling duet  on  the  piano  at  the  Band  Concert: 
he  is  just  as  talented  in  class  work,  too.  Ralph 
Blottner  and  John  McLean  are  our  foremost 
scientists  and  they  look  forward  to  next  year 
when  they  will  be  able  to  try  out  their  ever- 
growing store  of  ideas  in  a  chemistry  lab. 

Frank  Byrnes  and  Jack  O'Brien  shine  on  the 
public-speaking  platform:  looks  like  politics  for 
the  future.  Ed.  Sandford  was  the  high  scorer 
for  this  year's  Bantam  hockey  team.  Don 
Cavotti,  who  will  always  be  seen  with  Peter 
De  Angelis — our  best  bowler — was  a  star  on  the 
Minor-Midget  team,  and  he  hurls  a  very  fast 
ball  in  the  House  Softball  League.  Bantam 
hockey  and  the  band  demonstrate  tv.o  of  John 
Piatt's  many  talents.  Charlie  Campbell,  an  im- 
port from  New  York  State,  helps  Piatt  supplv 
sweet  harmony  in  the  school  band.  Paul  Bore- 
sok  represented  Ten-Three  on  the  Senior  Rugby 
team  last  Fall;  and  Gerald  O'Connor  played  a 
prominent  part  in  the  annual  school  stage 
presentation. 

Proof  that  the  East  and  West  do  sometimes 
meet  is  supplied  in  our  room  bv  Jim  Douglas 
who  travels  the  long  road  from  the  Scarborough 
Bluf{$  every  morning,  and  Leonard  Cook  who 
blazes  a  trail  in  the  a.m.  from  some  distant 
Western  point  (rumor  has  it  that  it  is  Mimico). 


They  bring  the  daily  news  of  events  in  the 
suburbs. 

The  future  defence  of  our  country  must  also 
be  prepared  for.  So  we  sent  Gerry  Campbell 
off  to  join  the  Air  Cadets,  and  we  are  training 
John  \'owles,  Mike  Hawkins,  Carl  Leddy,  and 
Donald  Levick  to  be  the  nucleus  of  a  skillful 
First  Aid  Group.  Mike  Ruff  may  some  day  be 
able  to  offer  his  artistic  ability  in  serving  his 
country  as  a  Navigator,  or  something;  and  Jim 
Lawlor  plays  baseball  all  summer  to  develop 
a  throwing  arm  in  case  he  might  have  to  toss 
a  grenade  or  two  some  day. 

In  silence  and  deep  thought  D'Arcy  Sulli- 
van, Jack  Rcid,  and  Terence  Dineen,  look  down 
tolerantly  from  the  heights  of  wisdom  at  the 
foibles  of  the  average  person;  but  when  they 
decide  to  speak,  we  listen  and  agree.  With 
Louis  Quinn,  of  course,  the  opposite  is  true, 
but  his  chief  concern  is  that  Ten-Three  may 
never  have  a  dull  moment,  and  we  are  grateful 
for  his  success  in  preventing  such  a  catastrophe. 

Still  waters  run  deep  so  don't  be  surprised 
when  Bobby  Phillips,  Basil  Jobin,  and  Hugh 
Kelly  show  their  "stuff." 

If  Bobby  Rhodes  never  gets  the  Rhodes 
Scholarship,  we  are  still  sure  he  will  see  a  lot 
of  the  world,  .^mong  the  strong,  silent  men  in 
the  room,  we  list  Pierre  LaChappelle,  Frank 
Laughlin  and  Joe  Cattana.  Hilton's  harvest, 
unlike  that  of  the  author  of  Lost  Horizon  and 
Good-Bye  Mr.  Chips,  will  not  be  a  random  one. 

As  is  becoming,  we  have  saved  the  good 
wine  until  last,  for  we  recommend  the  sunny 
smile  and  sparkling  wit  of  Tom  Doherty  and 
Ronny  McDonald  as  a  sure  solvent  for  the  blues.

Tom  Pennylegion  balance  all  the  other  ele- 
ments with  a  thoughtful  quietude.  Good- 
natured,  studious  and  always  dependable,  we 
can  honour  them  sufficiently  by  naming  them 
typical  St.  Michael's  students  everywhere.  If 
all  the  boys,  whom  I  have  mentioned  in  the 
above  write-up,  continue  as  they  have  begun, 
they  will  be  true  sons  of  God,  loyal  citizens 
of  their  country  and  worthy  of  the  respected 
tradition  which  they  have  accepted  at  St. 
Michael's.

Ten-Four 


A  MORNING  in  early  September  marked 
the  day  for  our  return  to  the  old  gates  of 
St.  Mike's,  .\gain  this  year  a  new  room  was 
opened  for  our  group  of  worthy  and  industri- 
ous (.".•.-)  scholars.  \Vc  still  had  with  us  most 
of  our  old  room-mates  of  last  year  and  a  few 
new  students  who  have  eased  right  into  our  pat- 
tern of  learning.  Still  with  us  are  those  three 
inseparable  pals,  Eddie  Lundy,  Bill  O'Mara, 
and  Paul  Pendergast.  They  help  to  liven  up 
the  atmosphere  in  more  ways  than  one  and 
usually  suffer  a  "jug"  from  the  presiding 
teacher.  D'Arcy  O'Hearn  completes  the  little 
foursome  with  his  constant  borrowing  of  Law- 
rence Ryther's  Latin  homework.  Lawrence  is  a 
newcomer  to  the  school  this  year  and  a  fine 
student.  Billv  O'Boyle  can  always  cause  a  lot 
of  trouble  with  his  antics  and  questions  during 
Mr.  Moran's  science  class.  The  entertainment 
committee  for  our  room  is  composed  of  our  old 
friend  Jim  Short,  Don  (The  Baron)  Fraser, 
Kenny  Goldsmith  and  John  Pougnet.  They 
also  seem  to  be  the  source  of  all  the  "wise- 
cracks" in  Ten-Four.  The  boys  representing 
the  now  famous  St.  Michaels  College  School 
Band  are  Don  Fraser,  Bud  (General  Manager) 
McGough,  Bill  Holmes,  Bill  Unser,  Arnold 
Teolis,  and  Alan  Walsh. 

John  McCann  will  be  a  great  French  scholar 
some  day  if  he  can  rattle  off  French  sentences 
as  well  as  he  can  the  principal  parts  of  the  verb 
"devoir."  Joe  Lamantia  (monsieur  cinq  par 
cinq)  is  just  as  broad  as  ever  and  just  as  good 
natured.  Oshawa  is  nearly  as  proud  of  Jim 
Zavitsky  (alias  Joe  Bush)  as  it  is  of  its  Junior 
O.H.A.   Hockey  Team. 

Our  Christmas  presents  this  year  came  in  the 


persons  of  Clare  Van  Allen  and  Bob  Costo. 
Clare  is  known  as  the  "here  today  gone  tomor- 
row" kid.  Bob  can  waste  more  of  Mr.  Murphy's 
time  with  his  stupendous  queries  and  argu- 
ments than  Jack  Wagner  can  while  changing  to 
and  from  his  various  seats. 

Jack  Legge  manages  to  gain  a  bit  of  knowl- 
edge when  he  is  not  too  busy  trying  to  catch 
up  on  last  night's  homework.  Ed.  Tew  and 
Kenny  Moffat  always  have  something  to  say 
to  each  other  whether  class  is  in  progress  or 
not.  Mel  Doty  is  our  glamour-boy.  Frank 
Madigan  doesn't  seem  to  be  able  to  beat  the  bell 
at  1.10  p.m.,  but  he  still  manages  to  squeeze 
in  before  the  last  bell.  Johnny  Cornet  always 
has  an  abundance  of  jokes  that  have  to  be  told. 
In  his  spare  time  he  manages  to  gain  excellent 
marks  on  his  examinations.  Gerry  Quinn  can 
swing  a  mean  punch  at  D'Arcy  O'Hearn  but 
is  really  an  A-1  student.  Radio  audiences  have 
yet  to  hear  the  powerful  bass  voice  of  Eugene 
Donohue.  Maybe  it  will  not  be  long  before  we 
hear  him  on  the  air-waves. 

Bill  Hall  and  Ken  Gariepy  always  seem  to 
have  a  difficult  time  getting  their  homework 
done  during  the  wrong  period  but  it  works  out 
fairly  well.  Billy  Trudelle  is  our  expert  on  his- 
tory in  Canada,  while  Gordon  Shand  excels  in 
Latin  (?.".').  Ed.  Ryan,  who  also  came  into 
our  room  at  Christmas  time,  always  has  some- 
thing to  say  to  Costo  or  Van  Allen.  Harold 
McDonald  is  our  representative  in  the  field 
of  dramatics.  Last  but  not  least  is  our  loyal 
Irishman,  Tom  Murphy,  whose  heart  went 
"pitter-patter"  when  the  band  played  the 
"Shamrock"  at  the  concert.

The  Minor  Midfjets 


\/f  ANY  spectators  at  the  Marlboro-St.  Mikes 
seven-game  Minor-Midget  series  won- 
dered how  St.  Mikes  were  able  to  outplay  a 
team  so  much  faster  and  heavier.  There  are 
several  elements  in  the  answer  to  that  question. 
The  Irish  lads  played  heads-up  hockey  because 
all  year  they  had  four  essential  things:  the  will 
to  win,  constant  practice,  a  great  fighting  spirit, 
and  brains. 

In  the  nets  Bob  DeCourcey  did  his  work 
with  such  ease  and  unconcern  that  rival  coaches 
cast  covetous  eyes  upon  him.  The  defensive 
duties  were  handled  by  a  litle  boy,  Pat  Gravellc, 
and  a  big  boy,  Paul  Dopp.  These  two  worked 
out  a  system  that  was  worth  its  weight  in  gold 
and  the  limp  bodies  of  opposing  forwards.  As 
a  fast-skating  forward  came  charging  down  the 
ice,  the  little  boy  stuck  himself  in  front  of  him. 
The  last  thing  the  fast-skating  forward  remem- 
bered was  the  peculiar  ease  with  which  he  sifted 
around  the  little  boy.  As  the  forward  was  car- 
ried ofl  the  ice  to  have  his  bones  re-set,  the  big 
boy  just  brushed  himself  off  and  the  little  guy 
complimented  himself,  while  both  added  an- 
other notch  to  their  war-clubs. 

Warren  Winslow  at  centre,  George  Scholes, 
left  wing;  and  Frank  Kirby,  right  wing,  handled 
the  puck  in  a  manner  which  was  pretty  to 
watch  and  which  usually  ended  in  a  goal.  Who 
can  forget  Scholes,  with  his  speed  and  fighting 
heart;  Kirby,  with  his  super-shift  through  a  de- 
fence, and  "Winnie,"  with  his  aggressive  fore- 
checking,  tireless  backchecking,  his  bulldog 
grit,  his  uncanny  ability  to  pick  corners  and 
get  goals  when  they  were  most  needed. 

The  other  line  featured  Dutch  DeLaat,  the 


forward  who  handed  out  more  punishment 
than  most  defensemen;  Don  Cavotti,  the  boy 
who  hit  the  goal  post  harder  and  more  often 
in  a  game  than  most  players  do  in  a  year;  and 
Fddie  Harrison,  the  boy  who  could  score  al- 
most every  time  he  shot  (in  one  game  he  had 
two  shots  and  scored  two  goals)  but  who,  being 
the  mighty  mite  from  Mimico,  and,  therefore, 
unselfish  and  good-natured,  insisted  on  passing 
the  puck. 

Paul  Bracken  handled  the  duties  of  man- 
ager, bellowed  instructions,  praise  and  encour- 
agement from  the  bench,  kept  everything  in 
order,  attended  all  practices,  and  in  his  spare 
moments  filled  in  on  the  forward  line.  John 
Robertson  and  Bill  Sadler  shoved  the  club  into 
the  play-offs  when  sickness  left  the  team  short- 
handed.  "Goal-a-game"  Pete  McParland  was 
regular  winger,  and  with  his  speed,  terrific 
shot,  and  never-say-die  spirit  was  a  driving  force 
and  a  tower  of  strength  to  the  team.  Unfortun- 
ately, Pete  was  stricken  with  appendicitis  and 
lost  to  the  team  in  the  play-downs.  Perhaps  it 
is  not  rash  to  say  that  with  Pete  in  the  line-up 
St.  Michael's  would  have  won  the  title. 

Although  the  team  as  a  whole  did  not  win 
a  trophy,  each  boy  on  the  team  gained  some- 
thing far  more  valuable  than  a  piece  of  silver, 
that  is,  team  spirit,  and  the  power  to  fight 
harder  as  the  going  grows  tougher.  This  team, 
which  lost  only  three  games  in  14,  gained  such 
a  favourable  reputation  for  sportsmanship  and 
hard,  clean  play  that  in  the  eyes  of  St.  Michael's 
it  was  the  outstanding  team  in  Toronto  and 
one  of  the  finest  ever  to  represent  the  Double 
Blue.

many  corridors,  your  labours  will  be  finally 
rewarded  by  the  appearance  of  our  home  at 
S.M.C.  for  the  year  1942-1943. 

"The  days  which  make  us  happy,  make  us

if  that  doesn't  convince  you,  then  come  with  me

picture  of  our  cast. 

Roy  Murray  is  an  entertainer,  par-excellence, 
and  all  agree  that  his  best  imitation  is  that  of 
a  monkey  on  a  miniature  trapeze.  Norm 
Peregooda,  the  imp  and  jumping-jack  of  the 
room,  causes  discomfort  to  one  and  all  by 
making  use  of  a  small  vial  of  ether.  Bob  De- 
Courcey  and  Paul  Dopp  are  our  representatives 
on  the  Minor-Midget  Hockey  Team  that  did 
so  well  in  the  T.H.L  series  during  the  past 
winter.  Gerry  Holland  played  some  nice  foot- 
ball for  the  Juniors  early  in  the  year. 

It  was  to  have  our  thirst  for  knowledge 
slaked  that  brought  us  to  St.  Mikes  and  we 
have  not  been  disappointed.  John  King  is  one 
of  our  leaders  and  he  has  won  for  himself  the 
name  of  "brains."  John  Varley  and  Dick 
Mitchell  are  two  of  the  quiet  boys  in  the  class 
but  they  usually  have  their  work  done.  Gene 
McConnell,  another  silent  young  man.  is  fam- 
ous for  his  blush.  You  will  often  see  him  in 
and  about  the  school  with  Tom  Ponesse. 
Ernest    Enright    is   still    taking    writing    lessons 


about  which  he  talks  incessantly  with  Clare 
Ladouceur,    the   mild    Frenchman. 

Norman  O'Grady  cannot  see  a  great  deal 
of  humour  in  Sauriole's  jokes,  but  he  does  get 
much  fun  out  of  playing  the  dart  game  with 
Jacques  Bienvenue,  who  accjuired  his  skill  last 
year  in  Ottawa.  Bob  Tricky  is  forever  "cruis- 
ing" around  the  room  looking  for  his  ink 
bottle,  which  John  Reagan  (one  of  the  boys 
from  Syracuse)   furtively  hid  in   his  desk. 

And  the  last  two  whom  I  will  mention 
in  this  brief  sketch  are  Carl  "Farmer"  Findley 
and  John  Brown,  "the  little  man  who  wasn't 
there."  I  mention  them  last  because  they  arc 
the  leading  contenders  for  the  late  comers' 
crown.  Findley,  a  man  of  infinite  variety  of 
excuse  when  called  upon  for  homework,  denies 
vigorously  that  he  gets  help  with   his  Algebra. 

NINE-TWO  is  not  the  largest  class  in  the 
school,  nor  is  it  the  smallest,  but  we  feel  sure 
that  it  has  contributed  a  good  share  to  the  life 
of  the  high  school  during  the  past  year. 


TEN-TWO  IS  GLAD  TO  MEET  YOU. 
(Continued  from  page  65) 
Ryan  is  Austin;  but  sure  his  legs  do  not  fit  an 
austin.  There  is  healthy  red-cheeked  George 
Scholes.  Surely  can  it  be,  his  meals  he  takes 
at  Bowles.  Stephens,  a  fellow  you  know  as 
Michael,  does  ride  a  pretty  mean  bicycle. 
Would  you  call  Joe  Williams  a  Roily  PoUy.- 
Maybe;  but  he  sure  is  good  at  Goalie.  Wilson 
is  last  in  the  ten-two  alphabet,  but  first  in  hockey 
all  will  bet. 

We  all  hope  we  meet  you  again  sometime. 


PERTINENT  HISTORICAL  FACTS(?) 


A  FTER  much  digging,  our  research  depart- 
ment dug  up  the  origin  of  the  term  "Jew's 
Flat,"  as  published  in  the  1942  Thurible.  Further 
examination  of  musty  documents  has  unearthed 
the  origin  of  the  title  "Irish  Flat."  It  seems  that 
the  second  floor  flat  was  continually  getting  the 
best  of  the  Jew's  Flat  in  various  dealings,  busi- 
ness and  otherwise.  Now  only  an  Irishman 
can  get  the  best  of  a  Jew  in  any  deal.  Hence 
the  term   "Irish   Flat." 

The  year  of   erection   of  the   present   build- 
ing has  long  been  a  mystery.     Documents  state 


that  St.  Michael's  was  founded  in  1852.  Joyce 
Kilmer  speaks  of  a  "rambly,  shambly,  shifty  old 
shack."  Certainly  no  other  edifice  fits  this 
description  as  well  as  does  St.  Michael's.  Kilmer 
wrote  this  in  1900.  However,  in  the  New 
Testament,  the  Apostles  tried  to  feed  5,000  men 
on  5  loaves  and  2  fishes.  The  obvious  reference 
to  the  boarders  of  the  College  confirms  our  al- 
ready well-founded  suspicions. 

This  proves  beyond  a  doubt  that  St. 
Michael's  was  built  sometime  between  44  A.D. 
and  1900.     Thus  the  mystery  is  solved.

The  Bantams 

KING    CLANCY    CHAMPIONS 


C  T.  MICHAEL'S  this  year  was  represented 
by  one  of  her  greatest  Bantam  teams — a 
team  that  won  the  King  Clancy  title — a  team 
that  lost  only  two  games  in  twenty  played,  both 
to  Marlboros,  T.H.L.  Champs.  The  team 
walked  through  the  Prep  group  with  seven  suc- 
cessive victories.  However,  when  they  met 
Marlboros,  the  cream  of  Toronto's  hockeyists, 
they  were  outplayed,  outscored,  but,  like  all  Irish 
teams,  never  outfought. 

The  highest  scoring  line  was  pivoted  by 
clever  Ed.  Sandford,  who  with  unerring  accur- 
acy could  lay  his  passes  on  the  sticks  of  high- 
flying Teddy  Beardwood  and  "Never-Say-Die" 
Bill  Chard.  The  "Fighting  Irish"  line  of  Johnny 
Piatt,  Bill  Richardson,  and  John  Chapman 
scored  many  valuable  goals  and  saved  many 
more.  With  this  line  on  the  ice,  there  was 
little  peace  for  the  opposition.  The  defence 
of  Armand  Fitzgerald,  Andy  Hamill  and  Tom 
Selby  was  wisely  avoided  by  rival  forwards. 
Joe  Williams  in  goal  turned  in  brilliant  exhi- 
bitions of  his  art,  especially  in  close  games.  In 
the  King  Clancy  series,  the  team  was  strength- 
ened by  the  addition  of  Joe  DeCourcy  and  Jim 
Kelly. 

Though  not  blessed  with  extraordinary 
hockey  ability,  this  team  was  noted  for  its 
great  fighting  spirit  which  pulled  flaming  vic- 
tories from  the  glowing  ashes  of  apparent  de- 
feat: in  the  group  play-offs,  L'.T.S.  had  a  four 
goal  lead  with  only  ten  minutes  to  play — St. 
Mikes  won,  5-4:  Young  Leafs,  with  eight  sub- 
stitutes, having  held  the  Irish  scoreless  for  an 
entire  game,  seemed  on  the  verge  of  a  win  over 
the  almost  exhausted  St.  Mikes  team  who  had 
only  two  alternates — St.  Mikes  won  in  the  over- 
time, and  then  crawled  off  the  ice.  St.  Mikes 
were  given  two  cheap  penalties  when  a  goal 
down  against  Ravens — Chard,  Beardwood  and 
Sandford,  the  only  Irish  on  the  ice  not  only 
held  Ravens  scoreless,  but  batted  in  two  goals 
before  the  penalties  were  up:  Tom  Selby  took 
approximately  three  minutes  relief  in  St.  Mikes 
final  four  King  Clancy  games:  Bill  Chard  com- 
plained bitterly  whenever  taken  off  for  a  rest: 
John  Chapman  never  failed  to  catch  his  man 
while  back-checking:  Johnny  Piatt  played  two 
games  with  a  broken  nose:  Joe  DeCourcv  and 
Teddy  Beardwood  always  came  out  of  the  cor- 


ners with  the  puck  .  .  .  such  was  the  stuff  this 
Bantam    team   was    made    of. 

Real  Championship  teams  reach  the 
top  only  after  toil,  disappointments  and 
self-sacrifice.  And  those  three  qualities 
make  this  year's  Bantam  team  great.  No 
team  worked  harder  than  they  did  to  win; 
no  team  took  defeat  so  bitterly;  no  team  won  so 
many  close  games  with  so  few  players;  no  play- 
ers showed  such  self-sacrifice  for  the  good  of 
the  team;  no  team  ended  the  season  in  such 
a  blaze  of  glory:  9-0  victory  in  the  Clancy 
Finals!  This  final  game  illustrates  the  great 
team  spirit  of  this  club  when  every  goal  of  nine 
scored  was  a  result  of  a  well-placed  pass;  no 
one  cared  who  scored  as  long  as  that  goal  was 
scored. 

St.  Michael's  is  proud  of  the  King  Clancy

Xine-Three 


TF  the  walls  of  Nine-Three  could  talk  and  tell 
the   story   of    those   who   laboured    diligently 
therein   this  year,  I  inia);ine   the  talc  would  be 
somewhat  as  follows. 

It  has  seldom  happened  that  we  have  been 
favoured  to  protect  from  the  unfavorable  ele- 
ments, and  from  the  rest  of  the  school,  such  a 
group  of  Hne  boys  as  is  with  us  this  year.  We 
have  heard  many  remarks  between  students 
and  teachers,  and  among  the  students  them- 
selves, and  we  cannot  but  conclude  that  this  is 
a  most  active,  ambitious  and  interesting  group. 
Their  extra-curricular  activities  are  many  and 
varied  and  in  the  space  allotted  to  us  we  can- 
not pause  to  discuss  who  rides  home  on  whose 
handlebars;  who  delivers  the  groceries  and  who 
demolishes  them;  the  yo-yo  champs,  or  what 
have  you.  Let  us  be  content  to  mention  those 
members  who  in  one  way  or  another  have 
pushed  themselves  to  the  fore  within  the  scope 
of   school   activities. 

Putting  first  things  first,  let  us  take  off  our 
hats  to  Jack  Goldsmith  who  stepped  through 
the  Diocesan  Examination  in  Religious  Knowl- 
edge with  a  neat  ninety-five.  Many  followed 
in  close  pursuit  and  I  am  told  that  it  was  only 
the  rigorous  self-imj)osed  rigours  of  Lent  that 
kept  the  mass  from  topping  the  ninety  mark. 
In  the  clash  of  talent  plus  ambition  and  indus- 
try, the  same  Jack  was  able  to  set  the  pace  across 
the  board.  While  we  salute  him  as  our  great, 
we  are  not  unmindful  of  such  clever  indus- 
trious lads  as  Jim  Murphy  and  Jerry  McAdams 
who  pressed  him  hard  even  on  the  home  stretch. 
Lest  you  come  to  think  that  it  was  a  three- 
man  team  permit  us  to  mention  the  mighty 
names  of  Pezzack,  Black,  Fusco,  Raftis,  Arrigo, 
Midghall,  etc.,  etc.,  all  of  whom  challenged  the 
brilliance  and  industry  of  the  best  of  the  two- 
hundred  ninth-graders.  Enough  for  scholastic 
attainment;  be  it  understood  that  in  this  field 
as   in  others,  Nine-Three  was  second   to   none. 

In  Dramatics  and  Public  Speaking  we  also 
have  our  heroes,  while  in  the  realm  of  music 
we  boast  of  the  three-instrument  Nelson  Ber- 
nier  who  in  his  first  year  at  music  made  a 
berth  on  the  famous  symphonic  concert  band. 
A  close  second  to  Bernier  is  the  diminutive  Bill 
Cowley,  and  if  we  cuold  but  pull  aside  the  veil 
that  hides   the  future   from  our  vision,  we  are 


sure  we  would  see  none  other  than  little  Bill 
swinging  the  baton  of  the  Maestro  Professor 
Cesar  Borre.  Whatever  the  activity,  be  it  de- 
bating, dramatics,  public  speaking,  first  aid, 
cadet  drill,  studies  or  even  athletics,  look  to 
Nine-Three  if  you  want  a  winner. 

We  have  mentioned  athletics,  and  it  seems 
that  even  some  athletic  aspirants  have  pushed 
their  way  through  the  Nine-Three  portals  this 
year.  Consult  the  sports  section  of  this  Year 
Book  and  read  all  about  our  Football  greats. 
As  the  hockey  season  has  just  closed  it  will  not 
be  out  of  season  to  speak  of  the  Nine-Three 
members  who  gave  a  good  account  of  them- 
selves in  the  sport  that  made  St.  Michael's  fam- 
ous. By  this  time  everyone  knows  that  St. 
Michael's  Minor-Bantams  are  the  City  Cham- 
pions. I  wonder  how  many  realize  that  Don 
Milne,  Bill  Slack,  Ken  Abbott,  Jack  Raftis  and 
Cliff  Midghall  were  all  gathered  \ip  from  Nine- 
Three.  Taking  a  look  at  the  aggressive  Ban- 
tam club  we  find  the  outstanding  denfenseman, 
Andy  Hamill,  a  product  of  this  same  group. 
Never  shall  we  see  such  a  prolonged  and  gruel- 
ling series  as  that  between  St.  Michael's  Minor- 
Midgets  and  the  Marlboro  All-Stars.  Can  we 
not  point  with  pride  to  our  hero,  Frank  Kirby? 

And  so  we  could  go  on  and  on  were  it  not 
that  our  sheer  humility  bids  us  say  no  more. 
Lest  you  suspect  that  there's  something  amiss, 
we  will  frankly  admit  that  Mills,  Thompson, 
Simpson,  Dubroy,  Kirby  and  Bill  Murphy 
really  could  have  studied  a  little  more  diligently, 
but  after  all,  we  are  just  young  fellows,  the 
world's  at  war  and  upside  down,  we  all  mean 
well,  and  we  must  not  be  loo  tough  on  the 
boy  that  gets  all  taken  up  with  the  momentous 
events  that  crowd  his  every  moment. 


THE  BANTAMS 

(Continued    on    page    79) 

Bantam  Champions — a  fighting  team  that  repre- 
sents the  best  that  can  come  from  the  School 
of  Champions;  a  team  that  never  understood 
the  meaning  of  the  word  "quit":  a  team  that 
some  day  will  carry  on  the  cherished  Irish  tra- 
ditions in  Junior  hockey;  a  team  that  should 
repeat  their  success  of  this  year  in  higher  com- 
pany in  future  years.

Nine-Four 


A  S  a  group  Nine-Four  is  distinguished  by 
being  the  smallest  of  the  ninth  grade  classes 
and  the  winner  of  the  ninth  grade  drill  compe- 
tition. But  we  have  individual  claims  to  dis- 
tinction as  well,  so  I  will  call  the  roll  of  Nine- 
Four  and  permit  the  boys  to  present  themselves: 

Annablc — good  student  and  star  hockey 
player  for  the  Champion  Minor-Bantams. 

Barrett — a  persistent  fellow  who  always 
wants  to  know  the  reason. 

Beardwood — hockey  player  with  the  Ban- 
tams, and  a  good  one.  Does  very  well  with  his 
studies,  too. 

Cachia — our  friend  from  Malta,  has  all  the 
admirable  qualities  that  are  produced  on  that 
famous  island. 

Douglas — has  a  knack  of  doing  the  right 
thing  at  the  wrong  time. 

Fallon — a  visitor  from  Leroy,  New  Y'ork; 
boards  at  the  school,  and  does  well  at  the  table. 

Fiore — our  band  member;  you  will  remem- 
ber his  part  in  the  trumpet  duet  at  the  concert. 

Hajdasz — our  little  friend,  carries  on  the 
scholarly   traditions  of   his  brothers. 

Hirst — loaned  his  hockey  talents  to  St. 
Vincent's  C.Y.O. 

Jarvis — a  character;  would  rather  run  a  mile 
than   think  a  minute. 

Jensen — with  "the  shadow"  he  would  make 
an  agreeable  partner;  both  come  and  go,  seldom 
saying  anything. 

Justin — small,  but  hard  to  miss — as  Turza 
found  out  not  long  ago. 

La  Gier — he  simply  loves  French. 

Lettner — picked  up  a  few  injuries  playing 
hockey. 


McBride — a  Mimico  product,  and  co-partner 
with  McGraw. 

McGraw — played  Junior  football,  using  very 
well  the  brawn  which  he  acquired  in  his  home- 
town. King,  Ontario. 

O'Connor — one  of  the  "lend-lease"  boys 
from  Nine-Five;  good  student,  athlete  and 
gentleman. 

O'Neil,  W. — another  bright  spot  scholasti- 
cally. 

O'Neil,  J. — came  with  the  trade  from  Nine- 
Five  —  apparently  O'Neil  is  a  synonym  for 
scholar,  for  this  is  another  of  our  leading  lights. 

Pastor — "Andy"  for  short, — one  of  the  bet- 
ter ball  players. 

Power — hails  from  Montreal — studying  for 
the  Redemptorists. 

Quinn — our  cadet  officer  points  to  him  as 
the  most  improved  "marcher"  of  the  year. 

Soccoccio — known  as  "Monk" — stood  at  the 
head  of  the  class  twice  in  a  row. 

Somerville — represented  our  room  in  the 
oratorical  finals. 

Steiner — Father  Dolan  calls  him  "Jo-Jo"; 
gets  O.T.  on  his  paper  often. 

Timmins — spending  these  rainy  weeks  at  St. 
Joseph's  Hospital,  recovering  from  serious 
burns. 

Tipold — Captain  of  our  "B"  team — fine 
student. 

Turza — started  out  quietly  but  showing 
more  stuff  all  the  time. 

White — a  member  of  Canada's  Reserve 
Army.

The  Minor  Bantams 


Chiimpioiis  of  the  Toronto   Hockey   League. 


tj^OR  the  second  year  in  succession  St.  Michael's 
Minor-Bantams  won  the  championship  of  the 
Toronto  Hockey  League.  The  Champions  won 
ten.  tied  three,  and  lost  two,  and  compiled  the 
splendid  record  of  scoring  fifty-one  goals,  while 
having  only  sixteen  scored  against   them. 

From  the  group  of  thirteen-year-olds  that 
reported  to  Mr.  Moran,  a  squad  soon  took  shape 
with  Ted  Muirhead  in  goal.  Don  Milne  and  Bill 
Slack  on  defence.  Bill  McNamara.  Bill  Dunn, 
and  Chuck  .\nnable  on  the  first  line,  Frank 
Hogan,  Ken  Abbott,  and  Clif?  Midghall  on  the 
second  line,  and  John  Raftis.  D'Arcy  Martin. 
Don  Piatt,  Pete  Gingras  and  Paul  Glynn  as 
alternates. 

The  first  skirmish  took  place  against  U.T.S. 
and  a  carpet  of  snow  saved  the  enemy  from 
a  worse  defeat  than  3-0.  After  this  initial  suc- 
cess the  boys  went  on  to  finish  in  first  place, 
beating  U.C.C.  twice,  walloping  Bessborough 
10-0,  and  losing  only  one  game  to  L^T.S.  In 
the  group  finals  the  first  game  resulted  in  a  tic. 
the  second  went  to  St.  Mikes,  and  the  third, 
played  at  Varsity  Arena,  went  to  U.T.S.  For 
the  first  time  the  team  was  threatened  with 
elimination.  The  lack  of  previous  indoor  prac- 
tice was  a  handicap  on  the  large  ice  surface. 
At  this  time  an  important  change  was  made  in 
the  line-up.  Bill  McNamara,  high-scoring  cen- 
tre, was  moved  back  to  the  defence,  and  Don 
Milne  was  moved  up  to  centre.  Three  indoor 
practices  put  the  team  in  shape  to  trim  U.T.S. 
decisively.  7-3,  and  to  take  the  Prep  group  title. 
with  Bill  Dunn.  Chuck  Annable.  and  Frank 
Hogan  leading  the  attack,  and  Bill  McNamara 
stopping   all   threats  on    the  defence. 

The  team  then  entered  the  semi-final  round 
against  .\dy  A.C.  The  first  game,  played  at 
Maple  Leaf  Gardens  on  St.  Michael's  Night, 
was  a  hard-fought  thriller  which  found  the 
boys  up  against  the  toughest  opposition  of  the 
year.  But  they  won  3-0.  through  the  brilliant 
work  of  Ted  Muirhead  in  goal,  and  by  the  goals 
of  Dunn,  Milne,  and  Hogan.  The  second  game 
went  to  the  harder  fighting  Ady  team,  3-L  This 


was  enough  to  arouse  the  Minor-Bantams' 
fighting  spirit,  and  the  next  day  at  Ravina,  they 
won  5-4  in  a  thrilling  game.  Chuck  Annable 
scored  two.  Bill  Dunn,  Frank  Hogan,  and  Don 
Milne,  one  apiece;  Bill  McNamara  and  Ted 
Muirhead    shone   defensively. 

In  the  first  game  of  the  finals  against  St. 
Brigid's,  St.  Mikes  showed  the  effects  of  the 
three  games  in  four  nights,  and  were  tied  l-I 
bv  the  scrappy  C.Y.O.  Champions.  Bill  Mc- 
Namara scored  the  goal  on  an  end-to-end  rush 
unassisted.  St.  Mikes  took  the  second  game 
when  Ted  Muirhead  got  another  shut-out,  5-0, 
and  Hogan,  Dunn,  Midghall,  and  Milne  banged 
in  the  goals.  In  the  final,  played  again  at  Maple 
Leaf  Gardens,  the  score  was  6-1.  Bill  Dunn 
bagged  three  goals  assisted  by  Frank  Hogan 
and  Chuck  .Vnnable.  D'Arcy  Martin  bagged 
two.  and  Frank  Hogan,  one.  Ted  Muirhead 
in  three  games  allowed  only  two  goals,  both 
by  Ken  Abbott.  Thus  ended  a  most  success- 
ful season  for  Mr.  Moran  and  the  Minor-Ban- 
tams, a  season  that  began  on  natural  ice  in  a 
snow  storm,  and  ended  under  the  bright  lights 
of  the  Gardens. 

The  Champions  had  several  noteworthy 
points.  Perhaps  the  first  was  the  number  of 
first-class  plavers  among  them.  The  smooth, 
strong  skating  of  Bill  Dunn  and  Chuck  .tu- 
nable; the  speed  of  Don  Milne,  Ken  Abbott, 
and  Frank  Hogan;  the  stick-handling  wizardy 
of  Cliff  Midghall;  the  strong  back-checking  of 
Jack  Raftis,  D'Arcy  Martin,  and  Don  Piatt;  the 
all-round  good  play  of  Bill  McNamara,  and  the 
brilliant  record  in  goal  of  Ted  Muirhead  in 
allowing  only  16  goals  in  15  games, — all  con- 
tributed to  the  winning  of  the  title.  On  the 
other  hand,  at  times  the  team  showed  a  reluct- 
ance to  exert  any  more  energy  than  was  neces- 
sary, a  fact  which  accounts  for  the  loss  of  two 
games.  However,  they  showed  the  ability  of 
champions  in  coming  through  in  the  crucial 
games  with   the  fighting  spirit  to   win. 

Congratulations  to  Mr.  Moran.  the  coach,  and 
to  the  Minor-Bantam  Champions.

The  Saint  Michaers  College  School  Band 


DURING  the  past  year  the  Saint  Michael's 
Cones'^  School  Music  Department  has 
shone  forth  with  its  steUar  achievements.  Under 
the  most  capable  guidance  of  Professor  Cesar 
Borro,  the  Saint  Michael's  School  Band  has  pro- 


gressed rapidly  to  attain  enviable  prominence 
in  the  field  of  music  in  Toronto. 

The  credit  for  this  is  due  to  the  arduous 
and  diligent  work  of  Mr.  Borrc,  who  was  kept 
busy  continually  directing  all  musical  functions 
at  Saint  Michael's.  His  task  consisted  of  pre- 
paring the  Band  for  the  football  season  with 
rousing  marches  and  Victory  Songs.  Again 
this  year  he  organized  another  "beginners" 
class  which  was  made  up  of  boys,  as  in  other 
years,  who  had  no  musical  knowledge  but 
were  eager  to  learn. 

.\s  has  been  said  frequently  before.  Saint 
Michael's  realizes  the  power  of  music  to  give  to 
the  lives  of  her  sons  something  akin  to  the 
joys  of  heaven,  and  therefore,  those  who  show 
a  desire  for  music  and  who  are  willing  to  co- 
opterate  are  given  a  thorough  grounding  in 
the  fundamentals  of  theory  and  technique. 
When  they  have  shown  the  ability  to  take 
their  place  in  the  Band,  there  is  no  hesitation  to 
advance  them  and  the  final  goal  is  reached. 
Mr.  Borre  saw  to  it  that  all  those  students  who 
desired  musical  instruction  were  well  provided 
for,  both  by  class  lessons  and  sectional  re- 
hearsals. 

During  these  times  that  try  men's  souls  our 
country  has  need  of  music.  The  Saint  Michael's 
Music  Department  has  fulfilled  that  need  most 
admirably.     Behind  every   piece  of  good  music 


is  the  master  hand  of  the  conductor  who  loves 
and  can  interpret  this  music,  and  most  im- 
portant of  all,  can  convey  his  interpretation 
to  the  musicians  under  his  charge.  Here  at 
SaiTit  Michael's  we  have  one  of  the  outstand- 
ing conductors,  not  only  of  Canada  or  .\merica, 
but  of  the  whole  world;  one  whose  name  was 
well  known  in  the  Old  World  before  many  of 
the  Saint  Michael's  students  of  to-day  were 
born.  Time  and  again,  Mr.  Borrc  has  shown 
his  powers  of  direction  and  co-ordination,  be- 
ing a  conductor  of  rare  musical  discernment 
and  fervent,  masterly  style. 

Early  in  the  school  year,  the  Band  played 
a  brief  concert  in  our  Auditorium  for  the  par- 
ents and  friends  of  the  members  of  the  Band. 
The  purpose  of  this  concert  was  to  show  the 
parents  just  what  improvement  had  been  made 
in  the  few  short  weeks  we  had  been  in  school. 
In  the  months  of  October  and  November 
we  accompanied  the  cadets  on  several  route 
marches,  and  during  the  hockey  season  we 
played  at  several  of  the  games  in  Maple  Leaf 
Gardens. 

As  the  snow  began  to  disappear,  our  thoughts 
and  efforts  were  turned  towards  the  Second 
Annual  Concert.  With  Father  Whelan  acting 
as  general  manager  and  faculty  advisor,  things 
began  to  pop.  New  uniforms  were  added  to 
those  acquired  last  year  and  several  new  im- 
provements were  made  to  the  caps  and  the 
uniforms.  New  ties, 
white  shoes  and 
white  socks  were 
added  to  I  he  al- 
ready verv  attrac- 
tive uniform.  Fa- 
ther Whelan  star- 
tled everyone  when 
he  announced  that 
the  Concert  would 
be  held  on  the 
evening  of  April 
5th,  in  the  vcr\ 
beautiful  and  at- 
tractive Eaton  Au- 
d  i  t  o  r  i  u  m.  This 
was  a  new  venture 
and  one  worthy  of 
commendation,  and 
all   concerned   were

SAINT  MICHAEL'S  COLLEGE  SCHOOL  BAND 


rewarded  when  on  that  evening  over  twelve 
hundred  people  crowded  into  the  Auditorium. 
The  success  of  the  concert  is  a  well-known  fact. 
Through  the  efforts  of  Professor  Borrc  and 
every  member  of  the  Band,  such  difficult  num- 
bers as  "The  Coronation  March"  from  the 
Opera  "Le  Prophete"  by  Meyerbeer;  "The  Blue 
Danube"  by  Johann  Strauss;  "Cavalleria  Rusti- 
cana"  by  Mascagni,  and 
"Pomp  and  Circumstance" 
by  Elgar,  were  brilliantly 
rendered  and  enthusiastic- 
ally received.  The  Quar- 
tette for  Saxaphones  was 
mastered  and  beautifully 
played  by  Frank  Chiara- 
monte,  Gerry  Slangret, 
Rowan  MacDonald  and 
Joseph  Prendergast. 

Frank  Corless  and  Neil 
Smith  received  a  grand 
ovation  from  the  huge  au- 
dience with  their  "Waltz  in 
B  Flat  for  Piano" — four 
hands.  Perhaps  one  of  the 
most  appealing  numbers  on 
the  programme  was  Gou- 
nod's ".\ve  Maria,"  which 
featured  Frank  Chirico  on 
his  trumpet.  Bill  Springer 
and  his  trombone,  and  Neil 
Smith  at  the  piano.  The  whole  band  played 
the  background  music  for  this  trio  and  \Ir. 
Borre  should  be  highly  commended  for  his 
arrangement  of  that  ever  beautiful  and  ever 
popular  hymn. 

Everyone  present  was  delighted  with  Mr. 
Borre"s  rendition  of  "Suite  Gothique"  by 
Boellman,  on  the  marvellous  Casavant  organ 
in   the   Eaton   .\uditorium. 

When  the  regular  concert  was  over,  the 
people  demanded  encores  until  it  was  neces- 
sary to   draw  the  curtains  on   a   vei7  tired   but 


happy  group.  Among  the  encore  numbers 
were  The  Hospitality  March;  The  Marine's 
Hymn;  Operatic  Mingle;  Manhattan  Beach 
March  and  the  College  Song,  better  known 
as  "Boozer  Brown." 

We,    the    members    of    the    Band,    wish    to 
extend  to  Mr.  Borre  our  most  sincere  gratitude 
for   all  he   has  done   in   our  behalf.     Not  only 
will     we     always     remember 
him  as    an   outstanding    mas- 
ter in  the  field  of  music,  but 
as   a    true    friend    and    a   real 
sport. 

Too,  we  of  the  High 
School  Band  wish  to  thank 
Saint  Michael's  for  the  fine 
musical  opportunities  offered 
us  during  our  stay  on  Clover 
Hill.  We  will  often  look 
back  with  pride  on  the  ac- 
complishments attained  by 
this  instrumental  organiza- 
tion. The  fine  music  we 
have  studied  and  played  will 
remain  with  us  as  an  in- 
spiration always  to  enjoy 
the  best  in  good  music.  It 
is  something  that  we  can 
carry  with  us  for  the  rest 
of  our  lives.  Without  this 
opportunity  in  our  music  at 
St.  Michael's,  we  feel  we  would  have  missed 
a  great  portion  of  our  school  life. 

Last,  but  not  least,  we  owe  to  Father  Whelan 
a  special  debt  of  gratitude.  While  serving  as 
faculty  advisor  to  the  department,  he  inspired 
us  with  his  little  talks  and  did  much  to  make 
our  Band  the  best  band  in  its  class  both  in  ap- 
pearance and  as  a  musical  organization.  Often- 
times he  worked  for  long  hours  after  the  rest 
of  us  had  left  for  home.  To  him  we  say  sin- 
cerely, "thank  you."

The  Printing  Room  Remembers 

Hy    VI-RY    RHV.   J.   A.    McOONACH, 

President    Catholic    ('hiirth    I'.xtcnsion    Society. 


COMHTIMl'S,  just  for  the  pleasure  it  gives 
us,  we  wauder  down  into  the  printing  shop 
which  from  time  immemorial  has  heen  an  in- 
dispensahle  part  of  the  Kxtension  establishment. 
The  big  flat  bed  presses 
pound  out  the  deep 
bass  of  the  day  long 
symphony,  nielodically 
marking  time  for  sta- 
catto  notes  of  the  lino- 
type and  Heidlebergs 
which  till  in  the  cease- 
less themes  of  wcll- 
known  publications 
which  pass  through 
their  stage  of  sound  be- 
fore becoming  lively 
print.  The  old  familiar, 
clean  odours  of  heated 
metal  and  fresh  ink 
warm  the  nostrils  and 
inHame  the  imagina- 
tion. We  remarked  to 
His  Grace  that  these 
grey-haired  veterans  had 
printers"  ink  in  their 
veins.  "I  hope  it's  not 
red  ink,"  he  remarked. 
For  anyone  who  has 
lived   in    this  delightful 

atmosphere,  life  has  rolled  off  these  presses  until 
it  seemed  that  life  itself  would  stop  when  the 
printers"  chapel  grew  still.  For  those  who  have 
grown  old  in  this  fine  service  to  Christian  civi- 
lization the  shop  is  a  home — living-room  where 
life  dances  in  the  platinum-like  letters  of  the 
fresh  type. 

A  DELICATE  GESTURE. 

On  one  of  these  excursions.  Monsieur  Pare, 
who  has  been  with  us  since  "away  back  when"" 
and  is  equally  at  home  in  English,  French  or 
Latin  composition,  drew  us  aside.  He  had 
carefully  and  thoughtfully  preserved  for  us  some 
imperishable  memories  of  our  early  bovhood 
bound  in  the  scholastic  covers  of  a  St.  MichaeKs 
College  Year  Book  of  1910-11,  with  all  the 
Class    histories    recorded    in    what    passed    for 


VERY    REV,    J     A.    McDONAGH 


poetry.  Having  bashfully  skip|X'd  over  the  pic- 
ture record  of  our  awkward  adolescence,  we 
were  suddenly  struck  by  a  poetic  preview  of  the 
Parnassian  seniors  then  just  entering  adven- 
turous manhood.  Here 
is  the  poem  which  af- 
fected us: 

PROPHECY. 

Hush!  some  prophetic 
spirit  bids  lue  con- 
template 
The  future,  which  I 
already  fain  would 
know; 

Of  how  this  noble  class 
their  names  will 
make 
And  in  life"s  battle 
their  sterling  worth 
will  show. 

Dimly    I    see    in    some 
cathedral    great. 
In      pontifical      robes 
and      with      stately 
ways, 
A    man   whose   name    I 
cannot    here   relate. 
Though    Hubert    we   called    him    in    college 
days. 

The    scene    passes,    and    with    it    the    cathedral 
great; 
Before   me    stands   a   place    whose    memories 
are  sweet; 
Alma  Mater,  I  greet  thee,  ere  it  is  too  late 
And  President  McCorkell,  you  I  also  greet. 

Then  up  to  New  Ontario  I  am  wafted  far; 

What  I  see  here  in  Sudbury"s  hall  of  fame 
Is   neither  gold  or  silver,   nor  nickel   bar. 

But  a   man — the  pride  of  the   North — Judge 
Mulligan    by    name. 

Gently  for  me  the  Spirit  reveals  in  life  another 
course,

Wherein  I  see  a  lecture  hall  tilled  with  young 

men; 
Harry    Bellisle    upon    the   platform    stands    in 

eloquent  discourse 
On  subjects  no  other  hand  but  his  has  learned 

to  pen. 

Once   more   I    delve   into    the   future   and    with 
anxious  heart   I   wait 
To  see   what   wonders  there  are   in  store   for 
me; 
1    behold   a   parish    church,   with    the    pastor   at 
the   gate 
And  my  heart  grows  glad  when  I  recognize 
Charlie   of   S.M.C. 

From  my  reverie  I  now  with  lingering  sadness 
'wake 
And  wonder  if  all  this  ever  will  be  done; 
If  what  I  have  pictured  shall  be  the  fate 

Of    this   gallant    graduating   class   of   "onety- 
one." 

— W.L.M..  "12. 

This  little  effusion  is  not  remarkable  by  way 
of  poetry,  not  even  qualifying  on  that  score. 
It  was  written  by  William  L.  Murray  of  Class 
'12.  The  members  of  Class  '11  were  Hubert 
Dignan,  Edward  J.  McCorkell,  Thomas  Murray 
Mulligan,  Harry  Stanislaus  Bellisle,  Charles 
Edward  Coughlin,  B.  P.  Fitzpatrick,  William 
Nobert,  Leo  Duhamel,  George   Howorth. 

ASTONISHING  INSIGHT. 

At  first  sight  this  prophecy  might  not  seem 
as  remarkable  as  it  really  is.  You  will  imme- 
diately recognize  in  the  second  verse  the  Most 
Reverend  Bishop  Dignan  of  Sault  Ste.  Marie 
diocese,  member  of  Extension  Board,  and  won- 
der what  episcopal  indications  showed  in  his 
college  life.  He  was  not  even  president  of  the 
class.  That  honour  went  to  the  then  redoubt- 
able Charlie  Coughlin.  But  whatever  Spirit 
was  on  the  job  to  inform  "Bill"  Murray  was 
very  much  on  the  job.  This  Hubert  is  very 
much  at  home  these  days  "In  pontifical  robes 
with  stately  ways." 

SEVERAL  DIRECT  HITS. 

The  third  verse  scored  a  bull's  eye  with  the 
now  Very  Reverend  E.  J.  McCorkell,  not  only 
former  President  of  St.  Michael's  College  but 
Superior  General  of  the  Basilian  Order.  That 
was  a  natural.     His  treatment   of  Mr.   Murray 


Mulligan  of  Sudbury  was  not  far  wide  of  the 
mark,  as  that  legal  luminary  has  been  a  judi- 
cial possibility  for  many  years.  "Gently  the 
Spirit"  was  a  good  phrase  for  introducing  that 
well-known  professor  and  worthy  president  of 
St.  Michael's  College,  the  late  Rev.  Henry 
Bellisle.  His  lectures  are  still  a  glorious  mem- 
ory.    May  he  gently  rest  in  peace! 

THE  PASTOR  OF  ROYAL  OAK. 

The  poet's  vision  of  the  Rev.  Charles  Cough- 
lin, then  about  to  enter  the  Basilian  Order,  is 
still  more  remarkable.  Destined  to  leave  the 
Basilian  Order  and  become  one  of  the  world's 
celebrities,  who  but  a  poet  could  have  foreseen 
that  he  would  become  best  known  to  the  world 
of  our  day  as  the  parish  priest  of  Royal  Oak, 
Michigan  r  When  we  bear  in  mind  that  all 
these  young  men  were  as  yet  unallotted  to  any 
determined  sphere  of  life,  these  forecasts  re- 
veal a  long  suspected  and  now  well  established 
fact,  i.e.,  that  fellow-students  or  fellow-workers 
know  most  intimately  the  capacities  of  a  man. 
We  are  not  sure  it  works  that  way  for  women, 
who  are  more  consummate  dissemblers.  In  the 
case  of  Father  Coughlin,  his  school-mates  must 
have  already  remarked  the  dual  personalities 
in  this  student,  the  one  an  oratorical  entity  and 
the  other  vocational.  In  later  years  when  these 
two  personalities  became  farther  separated,  the 
vocational  or  priestly  was  destined  to  dominate. 
We  believe  that  in  the  pure  sense  of  resonance 
or  sound  effect  this  class  president  was  and  is 
unsurpassed  in  this  age.  If  age  can  accomplish 
the  miracle  of  merging  these  two  personalities 
in  the  de  facto  pastor,  we  of  the  Church  in 
North  America  will  still  possess  a  treasure  that 
can  be  used  to  great  effect  in  the  Extension  of 
the  Kingdom  of  Christ. 

HE  SEEMED  TO  KNOW. 

Father  William  L.  Murray,  God  Rest  His 
Soul,  was  perhaps  the  most  remarkable  of  the 
class  of  1912.  An  orator,  trained  singer,  in- 
spiring athlete,  he  seemed  much  more  mature 
than  the  boylike  students  of  the  College  of  his 
time.  He  became  well  known  as  the  war- 
time chaplain  and  his  earlv  death  perfectly 
fulfilled  his  prophetic  uneasiness  expressed 
above,  "Once  more  I  delve  into  the  future  and 
with  anxious  heart  I  wait  to  see  what  wonders 
there  are  in  store  for  me."  Well,  please  God, 
he   now   sees  his   full  of   wonders   unimagined.

"Heaven  Can  Wait" 


A  T  THE  words  of  Mr.  Jordan,  "Good  luck 

K.  O.  Murdock,"  the  deep  blue  curtains 
of  St.  Joseph's  auditorium  drew  slowly  to- 
gether amidst  generous  applause;  and  St. 
Michael's  College  Dramatic  Society's  produc- 
tion, "Heaven  Can  Wait,"  came  to  the  conclu- 
sion of  a  successful  two-dav  stand.  Today  there 
isn't  one  who  doesn't  feel  a  quiet  chuckle  bub- 
bling up  inside  him  when  he  muses  on  the 
humorous,  fantastic  circumstances  that  led  Joe 
Pendleton,  that  simple  young  fighter,  to  the 
boxing  crown;  nor  one  to  forbid  a  smile  at  the 
comical  antics  of  Max  Levene. 

But,  of  course,  you  will  remember  all  that 
and  more,  and  so  in  this  space  I  shall  try  to  in- 
troduce to  you  the  true  characters  of  the  many 
who  co-operated  so  well  to  make  "Heaven  Can 
Wait"  such  a  success.  Let's  take  a  look  back 
stage  to  see  what  happens  there  as  busy  prepar- 
ations are  in  progress  for  the  play  which  is  but 
an  hour  away. 

Two  lonely  early  comers  sit  quietly  half  way 
back  in  the  auditorium  watching  the  stage 
preparations,  for  the  curtains  have  not  yet  been 
closed.  Here  we  see  those  responsible  for  the 
actual  production.  Fr.  Cullen  is  supervising  the 
stage  preparations  while  Mr.  Cullen,  having 
added  a  few  finishing  touches  to  the  aeroplane 
gangway,  leans  back  to  give  it  a  last  critical 
glance.  From  the  back  stage  comes  a  muffled, 
"test,  test,  test,"  as  Mr.  Houde  carefully  gives 
the  radio  apparatus  its  final  check  over  for  fight 
announcer  John  Richards.  Fr.  Dorsey  reclines 
against  the  stage  front  as  he  and  Father  O'Don- 
nell  discuss  weak  points  in  the  previous  day's 
dress  rehearsal. 

From  there,  we  walk  around  the  corridor 
outside  the  auditorium,  to  where  those  of  the 
cast,  who  have  arrived,  nervously  scan  scripts, 
and  are  gesticulating  and  mumbling  to  them- 
selves. The  dressing  room  is  soberly  lit  except 
for  one  glaring  bulb  in  the  far  corner  which 
reveals  two  chairs  in  which  are  seated  members 
of  the  cast  whose  features  are  being  deftly 
worked  over  by  Mr.  Phelan  and  Mr.  Swan,  the 
production's  skilled  make-up  artists.  Though 
the  boys  converse  freely  and  lightly  their  voices 
betray  an  atmosphere  of  tense,  nervous  expect- 
ancy. 

Grouped  under  a  lamp  in  the  middle  of  the 
corridors  we  see  Joe  Pendleton,  who  need  hardly 
be  introduced  as  jovial  Bill  Murphy,  with  Mr. 


Jordan  and  Messenger  7013.  Mr.  Jordan,  of 
course,  is  Dan  McCarthy,  an  old  hand  at  St. 
Michael's  Dramatics,  whose  life  is  made  miser- 
able by  the  implacable  Joe  and  the  blundering 
Messenger,  played  by  Fred  Miller.  They  are 
privately  rehearsing  the  first  act,  laughing  at 
each  other's  hesitancies  as  though  curtain  time 
were  a  month  away.  At  one  end  of  the  hall 
Susie,  Mrs.  Ames,  Julia  Farnsworth  and  Bette 
Logan,  in  the  persons  of  Don  Piatt,  Terry  Fore- 
stell,  Gerald  O'Connor  and  Harold  McDonald, 
who  held  the  feminine  roles,  gather  themselves 
around  a  mirror  endeavouring  to  trace,  through 
the  greasy  make-up,  any  semblance  of  their  for- 
mer selves.  Don  Piatt,  the  youngest  in  the  play, 
portrays  the  excitable  maid  of  the  Farnsworth 
household  co-operating  with  Terry  Forestell  the 
lady  who  answers  the  door  and  places  bets  on 
her  employer's  fistic  ability.  Then  there  is  Gerry 
O'Connor,  the  deceitful,  two-timing  Julia  Farns- 
worth, and  Harold  McDonald,  the  ravishing 
Bette  Logan  who,  to  your  undoubted  surprise, 
are  the  most  amicable  of  companions  off  stage 
despite  their  pretended  stage  rivalry. 

Those  two  in  the  make-up  chairs  just  now 
are  Bill  Dimma  and  Philip  "Scotty"  MacDon- 
ald  who  also  are  most  friendly  and  are  at  the 
present  enjoying  some  rare  wit  much  to  the 
consternation  of  the  make-up  men  attempting 
to  apply  delicate  touches  of  colour  to  smile- 
wreathed  faces.  Bill  is  the  scheming  Tony  Ab- 
bot, secretary  to  Farnsworth,  while  "Scotty"  is 
the  one  who  gave  such  hilarity  to  the  character 
of  Max  Levene,  fight  manager.  Leon  "Bud" 
Dwan  and  Joe  Prendergast,  a  couple  of  third 
act'ers,  are  just  arriving  and  assuring  all  of  a 
fast  filling  auditorium.  They  briskly  remove 
overcoats  to  await  their  turn  at  the  "barber" 
chairs  to  assume  their  characters  of  Lefty  and

Commercial — 1943 


"TpHE  Commercial  class,  predominantly  French 
this  year,  enjoyed  its  usual  grand  success. 
Headed  hy  Messrs.  Castonguay  and  Fortin,  who 
returned  this  year  to  acquire  that  extra  touch 
spelling  perfection  in  English  and  Commerce, 
the  members  proved  rather  colorful  and  inter- 
esting. 

Joseph  Forster,  "the  jolly  Briton"  knows  his 
own  mind  and  speaks  it,  sometimes  out  of 
turn.  Thwarted  in  his  movie  career  by  a  cer- 
tain Charles  Boyer  of  Hollywood.  Robert 
Simard  now  pursues  knowledge  in  commercial

will  his  educated  feet  be  rated  with  those  of 
Fred  Astaire.  Our  latest  arrival,  Richard 
Quinn,  revealed  himself  as  a  man  of  many 
parts,  debonair,  you  know,  though  generally 
off  the  beam.  Bernard  Gillies  will  have  no 
difficulty  in  persuading  the  world  to  give  him 
a  living.  Beauport,  Quebec,  should  appoint 
Noel  Ste  Marie  its  publicity  agent;  he  means 
well  though!  Given  somewhat  to  romantic 
English  melodies  and  an  original  sense  of 
humour,  Andre  Soucy  relieves  the  high  pres- 
sure sometimes  prevailing  in  English  classes. 
Bernard  Holland,  present  in  spirit  only, 
achieved  considerable  success  in  social  and  ath- 
letic activities — we  hope!  Though  his  sweet 
and  gentle  voice  is  seldom  heard,  when  Adricn 
Ouellet  gives  tongue  the  effect  is  great.  Our 
travelling  Press  Agent,  John  Fortin,  briefly  re- 
ports "everything  under  control."  Much  to  the 
chagrin  of  the  lesser-gifted,  Leo  Castonguay 
revels  in  commercial   difficulties. 

During  the  year  Richard  Brassard  and 
Gaetan  Santerre  departed  from  our  midst  to 
don  the  valiant  blue  of  the  Canadian  Navy — 
we  wish  them  luck.  Another  absentee  is  Guy 
Francoeur  who  is  preparing  for  distinction  in 
Canada's  armed  forces.

With  a  Grain  of  Aspirin! 


'  I  'HERE    is   a    strange    conditon    existing    be- 

tween  the  current  Toronto  press,  and  the 
St.  Michael's  College  Hockey  teams.  It  is  a 
mania  whereby  the  local  printers  attempt  to 
efface  any  notable  achievement  of  the  Irish,  and 
make  things  worse  by  building  up  the  fortunes 
and  fames  of  their  opponents.  This  is  an  in- 
explicable situation  when  we  consider  that  the 
Double  Blue  has  replenished  Toronto  Sport  col- 
umns with  fertile  news  ever  since  the  days 
when  Cyclone  Taylor  was  a  little  breeze. 

Let  us  suppose,  for  the  sake  of  argument, 
that  St.  Mikes  loses.  4  to  3  (only  for  the  sake 
of  argument).  The  typical  write-up  would 
begin  something  like  this. 

Totally  out-played,  out-scored,  out-skated, 
out-fought,  and  out-boarded  (you'd  think  they 
were  motor-boats),  the  St.  Michael's  Buzzers 
left  the  ice,  a  badly  beaten  team.  De  La  Salle, 
a  much  smaller  team,  gave  the  big  brutes  a 
shellacking  thev  will  never  forget. 

The  rest  of  the  write-up  would  include  an 
intricate  and  detailed  account  of  the  lives  and 
loves  of  the  De  La  Salle  plavers,  with  appro- 
priate notes  on  their  genealogies  to  the  4th 
generation.  The  more  malicious  writers  gener- 
ally end  their  declamations  with  a  vicious  "so 
there."  The  fact  that  the  score  was  tied  until 
the  last  minute,  and  that  the  Buzzers  out-shot 
their  adversaries  48  to  46,  does  not  affect  the 
anti-Irish. 

However,  a  much  more  eloquent  harangue 
is  delivered  when  the  boys  in  Blue  beat  some 
visiting  team,  say  Brantford  bv  a  large  score, 
9  to  1.  It  is  then  that  the  papers  reach  heights 
of  emotion  which  must  bring  tears  of  sorrow 
and  anger  even  to  the  most  calloused  readers. 
There  is  one  notable  character  who,  had  silent 
movies  still  been  the  fashion,  could  have  earned 
a  creditable  living  writing  sub-titles  for  Shirlev 


Temple.      His    column    usually    began    with    a 
flaming   by-line, 

OUTRAGE    AT  THE  GARDENS! 
THIS  SITUATION  MUST  STOP! 

Today  at  Maple  Leaf  Gardens,  one  of  the 
most  inhuman  spectacles  ever  seen  on  the  hal- 
lowed ice,  was  allowed  to  reach  its  bloody  con- 
clusion. Six  lonely,  orphaned,  short-sighted, 
brave  little  lads  from  Brantford  battled  uselessly 
against  those  hulking  big  brutes  from  the  Bay 
Street  seat  of  learning.  The  poor  young  lads 
with  their  regular  goalie  selling  papers  to  sup- 
port the  team,  were  forced  to  use  their  utility 
man  in  the  nets.  He  has  had  infantile  paralysis 
for  the  past  nine  years.  The  coach  was  also 
absent  tending  his  dear  mother  in  Kalamazoo. 
(.\s  a  matter  of  fact,  he  was  tending  his  dear 
hobby  at  Narragansett.  That  kind  of  a  hobby 
is  always  dear.)  Even  with  such  hopelessly 
uneven  sides,  the  brave  boys  put  up  a  great 
fight,  so  great  that  they  were  beaten  by  only 
8  goals.  This  game  should  go  down  in  the 
annals  of  history  as  an  example  of  what  courage 
can  do  against  such  odds. 

The  casual  reader  either  calls  the  morgue 
to  express  his  regrets,  or  buys  a  hand-grenade 
to  end  such  undue  villainy.  Of  course,  he  re- 
ceives a  bit  of  a  shock  when  he  finds  the  same 
Brantford  team  subdues  Young  Rangers  about 
20-0  the  following  night. 

This  incontinuity  is  never  explained.  I  pre- 
sume the  writer  works  on  the  same  principle 
as  Houdini. 

So  you  see,  whether  we  win,  lose,  or  tie,  we 

should   have   lost.     We   were  out-classed   in   all 

respects.     We  beat  tiny  tots  in  grammar  school: 

we  lost  to  the  same  children,  and  our  ties  are

The  Holy  Hour  at 
St.  Michael's 

Wl',  DO  not  claim  to  be  taught  anything  out  of 
ihc  ordinary  here  at  St.  Michael's.  Our  sub- 
nets and  courses  arc  the  same  as  any  other  schooPs; 
,md  our  teachers  and  their  method  of  teaching  do  not 
(lilTcr  radically  from  what  is  to  be  found  elsewhere. 
I'hcrc  is,  however,  one  thing  to  be  found  at  St. 
Michael's  and  only  at  St.  Michael's:  our  daily  Noon 
Hour  Exposition. 

This  Holy  Hour  is  one  of  the  greatest  traditions 
that  St.  Michael's  holds  dear  to  her  heart.  It  makes 
up  for  any  petty  inconveniences,  structural  or  other- 
wise, that  we  may  suffer.  In  the  school  the  spirit  of 
the  Catholic  faith— to  put  first  things  first— is  always 
prevalent. 

Every  noon  a  group  of  boys  gather  in  the  church, 
and  shortly  afterwards  a  priest  and  two  servers  ap- 
proach the  altar,  kneel,  and  say  a  short  prayer.  The 
priest  then  ascends  the  altar  and  with  his  blessed 
hands,  takes  the  Host  from  the  tabernacle.  He  places 
it  carefully  and  reverently  in  the  monstrance,  which 
is  placed  above  the  altar.  The  introductory  hymn,  the 
O  Salutaris,  is  chanted  while  the  priest  offers  sweet 
smelling  incense  as  a  symbol  of  our  prayers  oflered 
to  God. 

Many  students  remain  in  the  church  to  stand 
guard  for  Him,  their  Prisoner  of  Love.  After 
they  have  been  in  the  church  for  about  ten  minutes,  they  are  relieved  by  others.  These 
boys  are  known  as  the  Knights  of  the  Blessed  Sacrament,  and  they  willingly  give  up  a  short 
time  of  their  noon  hour  recreation  to  converse  with  our  Divine  Lord  in  the  Blessed  Sacrament, 
and    to   ask   for   the   needed   strength    and   guidance  to  meet  their  trials  of  the  day. 

Outside  in  the  yard  there  are  the  usual  activities  going  on— hockey  games,  handball  tourna- 
ments, baseball,  groups  of  boys  gathered  around  talking-the  typical  scene  of  any  school. 
Upstairs  in  the  study  hall  other  students  are  studying.  As  soon  as  the  bell  rings  at  ten  mmutes 
to  one  however,  all  things  are  dropped  and  the  boys  file  into  the  church.  No  boy  .s  so  strong 
that  he  does  not  require  spiritual  assistance.  At  five  minutes  to  one,  the  priest  with  h>s  servers 
acain  enters  the  sanctuary.  Then  the  congregation  of  students  sings  one  of  the  attractive 
and  inspiring  hymns  of  adoration  to  God;  the  Tantum  Ergo.  The  priest  again  puts  .ncense 
on  the  glowing  charcoal  and  the  fragrant  clouds  drift  heavenwards.  Next,  the  pr.est  ap- 
proaches the  altar,  takes  the  monstrance  in  his  covered  hands,  and  imparts  the  blessmg  with 
the  sign  of  the  cross,  as  all  heads  bow  in  prayer  and  adoration.  The  Divme  Praises  are  said 
and  another  hymn  sung  and  then  the  students  return  to  their  work  and  their  play,  carrying 
with  them  Divine  inspiration. 

Is  it  any  wonder  then  that  the  Holy  Hour  and  Benediction  are  among  the  most  popular 
activities  of  the  students  at  Saint  Michael's?  'We  see  here  the  spirit  of  St.  Michael's  in  action 
— first  things  first..  Howard  Cash.

Milne  .  .  .  The  solo  rushes  of  Bill  McNamara, 


leading    scorer   in    the   regular    schedule    when 
he  was   playing  centre. 

The  St.  Michael's  fan  will  remember  these 
thrilling  plays,  and  the  St.  Michael's  boys  who 
made  them.  For,  though  it  kept  him  busy,  he 
saw  every  game  just  as  he  has  seen  every  game 
for  years.  In  his  opinion  it  was  a  great  year  in 
athletics  comparable  to  the  best  the  school  has 
ever  had.  The  Majors,  he  thought,  were  at  least 
the  second  best  team  in  Junior  A,  and  one  of 
the  best  in  years.  He  admired  the  way  the 
Buzzers,  Midget  Champions  last  year,  stepped 
up  against  bigger  and  older  opposition  in  Junior 
B.  He  knows  that  McLean,  Powers,  Kane,  and 
Coates  could  have  played  midget.  He  expects 
to  see  many  of  them  as  Majors  next  year.  The 
clean  sweep  of  the  Prep  Group  titles  delighted 
him,  for  that  has  been  done  only  twice  before 
in  the  history  of  the  T.H.L.  teams.  He  always 
has  his  eye  out  for  prospects  on  these  teams; 
for  only  two  years  ago  he  saw  Greg  Carter  as  a 
midget,  and  spotted  him  as  a  comer;  Pat  Powers 
and  Ted  McLean  as  bantams;  and  three  years 
ago  Jerry  Hickey,  Tom  O'Neill,  Johnny  Marois, 
and  George  Dodd  as  midgets  in  the  city  finals. 
He  can  hardly  wait  to  see  the  scramble  for  posi- 
tions on  the  Buzzers  between  the  best  of  the 
midgets  and  minor-midgets.  In  a  year  or  two 
he  expects  Ted  Muirhead  or  Joe  Williams  to  be 
wearing  Johnny  Marois'  pads,  Pat  Gravelle  and 
Paul  Dopp  will  be  the  toughest  defence  in 
Junior  A,  and  Ed.  Sandford,  George  Scholes, 
Warren  Winslow,  Johnny  Durand,  and  Paul 
Pelow  will  be  scoring  goals  for  the  Majors.  Nine 
years  ago  he  saw  George  and  Paul  as  Bantams, 
and  he  is  sure  Bill  McNamara  is  going  to  be  as

The  Annual  Retreat 


W/  ITHIN  a  darkened  rodni  of  a  great  seat 
of  parliament,  a  man  paced  nervously, 
hii:  mind  troubled  bv  indecision,  .\pparently 
unable  to  solve  his  problem,  he  drifted,  as  pre- 
occupied men  so  often  do,  into  the  smoke  of 
the  past.  Remembrance  of  school,  outstand- 
ing events  of  his  scholastic  career,  all  grew 
and  waned  in  his  tormented  mind.  His  goal, 
which  won  the  Midget  Series  for  the  Double 
Blue,  and  his  "skin-of-the-teeth"  graduation  in 
the  spring  of  Mi,  all  brought  smiles  of  recogni- 
tion to  his  thin  lips. 

Then  he  remembered  one  incident  which 
refreshed  his  tired  brain.  The  retreat  appealed 
to  him.  not  onlv  as  a  means  of  grace,  but  also 
as  a  plan,  a  path,  whereby  he  might  live  his 
life  without  the  doubt  and  hesitation  of  one 
not  so  fortunate  as  he.  Slowly,  and  as  if  from 
across  a  wide  river,  the  words  of  the  retreat 
master  came  to  him  .  .  . 

".Act,  my  dear  boys,  as  you  would  act  if 
God  were  watching  vou.  And  He  is  watchin'T 
each  and  every  one  of  you,  each  soul  which 
may  or  may  not  sink  to  the  degradation  and 
mire  of  sin.  Can  any  one  of  you  disobey  the 
Master,  knowing  that?  I  think  not!  Remem- 
ber these  words,  I  pray  you,  and  salvation  will 
he  ahead  constantly  like  a  guiding  beacon  .  .  ." 

No  longer  was  there  a  perplexed  look  on 
the  politician's  lean  countenance.  \  light  of 
new-found  determination  strengthened  his  re- 
;:olve  to  act  as  He  would  have  acted.  The 
criticism  of  many  and  the  approval  of  only  a 
few  would  greet  his  action.  Only  the  few 
who  really  desired  to  remove  corrupt  dealings 
from  government  policies  would  understand 
and  second  his  radical  course.  But  Christ 
would  have  done  the  same,  and  Christ  was  God. 

In  the  same  decade,  another  poignant  drama 
unfolded.  In  a  green-shaded  room,  the  sunken 
cheeks  of  a  man  in  agony  rendered  his  face 
a  pale  death  mask.  A  doctor  gravely  adjusted 
his  spectacles,  and  sighed  in  despair.  Murmur- 
ing a  soft  farewell  to  the  grim  nurse  in  at- 
tendance, he  slipped  from  the  room.  A  few 
minutes  later,  the  nurse,  too,  departed. 

.\lthough  the  patient's  body  drew  near  to 
death,  his  mind  was  still  alive,  arguing  within 
itself  and  fighting  a  losing  battle  with  the 
Prince  of  Devils.  Temptation  assailed  him. 
and  in  his  impoverished  state  he  prayed  to  God 
for    the    grace    of   resistance.      He    turned     his 


thoughts  to  innocent  things  but  they  slithered 
to  the  seat  of  his  weakened  reason.  When  he 
had  almost  succumbed  to  the  serpent,  lasting 
words  of  wisdom  turned  him  towards  Redemp- 
tion. 

The  sudden  remembrance  of  a  long-forgot- 
ten retreat  fortified  his  will,  and  took  him  in 
spirit  before  the  eloquent  force  of  that  in- 
spiring  priest.   .  .   . 

"Death  must  ccme  to  all  of  us.  It  is  as  un- 
avoidable as  eternity,  as  forceful  as  death,  as 
fearful  to  the  atheist  as  a  demon  out  of  hell. 
Purgatory  is  only  a  temporary  suffering-place, 
softened  by  the  hope  of  the  future.  Now, 
hoys,  it  is  either  Heaven  or  Hell.  We  must 
decide.  It  is  a  decision,  the  results  of  which 
shall  last  forever,  for  all  time.  Think  of  it, 
then  tell  me  if  offending  God  for  the  primi- 
tive pleasure  of  a  few  minutes  or.  at  best,  a 
life-time,  punctuated  by  hate,  fear  and  suffer- 
ing, is  worth  the  indescribable  fury  of  the  fire 
cf  the  pits  of  hell.  Is  not  heaven  above  our 
petty  desires  and  pleasures?  My  dear  boys, 
whatever  you  do,  whatever  vou  attempt  on  this 
earth  be  sure  that  vou  die  with  grace  lighting 
your  soul;  and,  the  Gates  of  Heaven  beckoning 
you  .  .  ." 

A  poor  attempt  at  the  sign  of  the  cross 
fluttered  over  his  shoulders  and  forehead,  des- 
cribed by  a  hand  almost  devoid  of  motion. 
A  ghost  of  a  smile  beautifully  illuminated  his 
whole  being,  and  contentedly  he  died.  Thus 
arose  another  prisoner  before  the  highest  court 
cf  all,  but  one  whose  verdict  would  be  eternal 
happiness  and   life. 

These  inept  allegories  show  the  vivid,  vital 
force  of  the  three  days  of  reflection  which  the 
boys  of  Saint  Michael's  made  last  fall.  This  is 
why  Father  Camillus  Barth,  our  Retreat  Mas- 
ter, provided,  with  his  superb  sermons,  thought 
for  our  leisure  moments  of  contemplation.  We 
made  a  good  retreat,  becauce  we  realized  that, 
years  trom  now,  when  this  particular  retreat 
is  but  a  grain  in  the  sands  of  time,  we  may 
be  turned  from  the  peril  of  evils  which  may 
befall  us  by  the  powerful  words  of  Father 
Camillus. 

Do  as  Christ  does.  Perfection  is  the  imi- 
tation of  Christ.  If  we  follow  this  axiom,  then 
when  death  comes  we  may  be  well  prepared 
and  we  will  receive  our  eternal  reward.

The  Senior  Sodality  of  the  Blessed  Virgin 


\  \/^  HEN  St.  Michael's  College  was  founded 
ninety-one  years  ago  one  of  the  first 
societies  to  be  formed  among  the  students  was 
the  Sodality  of  the  Blessed  Virgin  Mary,  erect- 
ed under  the  title  of  the  Immaculate  Conception. 
This  Sodality  was  established  to  bring  every 
student  of  St.  Michael's  under  the  protection 
of  Mary  in  a  very  special  way,  and  to  foster 
devotion  to   her. 

Since  the  first  day  of  its  inception  the  So- 
dality has  continued  to  the  present  day  with- 
out interruption,  every  student  who  has  attend- 
ed Sv.  Michael's  having  been  enrolled  a  member 
for  life. 

With  the  increase  in  numbers  of  students 
and  with  the  founding  of  the  Arts  College,  it 
was  necessary  to  form  separate  Sodalities  for 
the  two  departments.  High  School  and  Arts. 
A  few  years  ago,  due  to  the  large  enrolment 
in  the  High  School,  the  directors  found  it  ne- 
cessary to  divide  the  High  School  Sodality  into 
two  groups.  Junior  and  Senior.  The  Senior  So- 
dality comprises  all  the  students  in  Grades  XI, 
XII    and  XIII. 

The    primary    object    of    the    Sodality    is    to 


foster  devotion  to  Mary.  To  this  end  the 
Litany  of  the  Blessed  Virgin  and  a  substantial 
part  of  the  Rosary  are  recited  at  each  meet- 
ing. Activity  on  the  part  of  the  students  is 
carried  out  through  the  Mission  Society  and 
the  Knights  of  the  Blessed  Sacrament.  Prayers 
are  offered  for  those  working  in  mission  fields, 
and  donations  are  sent  annually  to  the  mis- 
sions. 

During  the  midday  recess,  from  twelve  to 
one,  the  Blessed  Sacrament  is  exposed  in  St. 
Basil's  Church,  where  the  Knights  of  the 
Blessed  Sacrament  spend  part  of  their  noon 
hour  in  adoration.  This  is  wholly  voluntary 
on  the  part  of  the  bovs.  This  group  includes 
most  of  the  students  in  the  school.  It  is  edi- 
fying to  see  the  large  numbers  present  at  the 
Holy  Hour,  and  at  Benediction  which  brings 
to  a  close  the  hour  of  adoration. 

By  being  a  member  of  the  Sodality  and 
taking  part  in  its  activity,  a  boy  cultivates  an 
increasing  devotion  to  Mary,  the  Mother  of 
God.  If  he  is  faithful  to  the  promises  he  makes 
on  the  day  of  his  solemn  reception  into  the

The  Junior  Sodality  of  the  Blessed  Virgin 


'"T'EACH  me  goodness,  discipline,  truth." 
^  That  is  the  motto  of  St.  Michael's  College 
High  School.  Yet  we  may  ask.  "why  should 
we  be  good,  be  disciplined  and  tell  the  truth.'" 
The  answer,  of  course,  is  that  we  want  to  do 
these  things  because  we  love  God  and  desire  to 
be  with  Him  in  Heaven  when  we  die.  But 
we  need  God's  help  and  Grace  to  get  to  Heaven 
and  one  of  our  best  means  of  asking  for  this 
help  is  through  Mary,  the  mother  of  Jesus 
Christ. 

Once  a  week  the  Junior  Sodality  of  the 
Blessed  Virgin  troops  to  St.  Basil's  Church  to 
pay  honour  to  Jesus  and  Mary,  Our  Saviour 
and  His  Mother.  Two  decades  of  the  rosary. 
the  Litany  of  the  Blessed  Virgin,  a  short  ser- 
mon and  a  hymn  take  up  this  time  and  help 
us  think  of  this  mother  and  child  who  can 
never  be  separated  from  each  other.  Just  as 
we  love  our  mothers  so  Jesus  loved  His  mother 
and  did  so  many  things  for  her.  In  fact, 
Jesus   has    never   stopped   doing    this,    and   that 


is  why  this  weekly  time  of  prayer  is  so  im- 
portant to  members  of  the  Junior  Sodality.  It 
is  a  time  when  we  can  ask  favours  of  our 
Blessed  Lady;  that  she  may  ask  Jesus  to  give 
us  Grace,  to  help  us  in  our  school  work  and 
to  make  us  real  Catholic  students  and  real  men. 

Our  teachers  are  trying  to  make  us  real 
men,  men  whom  Mary,  the  mother  of  God, 
can  love.  The  building  up  of  our  character  is 
more  important  than  anything  else  we  may 
do  at  St.  Michael's.  Studies,  sports,  everything 
we  do  at  school  should  tend  toward  develop- 
ing good  character.  If  we  have  this  character 
we  can  face  the  world  unafraid  and  made 
strong  by  our  love  for  God.  Members  of  the 
Junior  Sodality  have  their  own  battle  to  fight, 
so  when  we  visit  the  church  let's  ask  Jesus 
and  Mary  to  help  us  fight  it. 

Such  is  the  motive  of  our  weekly  visits  to 
St.  Basil's  Church;  such  is  the  first  and  most 
important  phase  of  our  education  as  Catholic

selves  surroimded  by  a  whirl  of  iictivities. 
Classes,  sports,  miisii  aiul  dr^iniiitiis  arc  all 
molding  our  blossoming  characters,  like  the 
blows  of  a  sculptor  who  is  endeavouring  to 
shape  a  stone  to  his  liking  as  it  speeds  along 
on  an  assembly  line  to  another  set  of  impres- 
sions. At  Saint  Michael's,  the  graduating  class 
is  the  finished  product.  .Xnd  what  a  fine  piece 
of  work  was  the  Class  of  "42! 

The  war  has  set  very  serious  problems  in 
front  of  a  high  school  graduate.  He  is  jostled 
here  and  there  bv  perplexing  questions  that  de- 
mand a  settlement.  His  own  choice  too  often 
is  swept  aside.  But  Saint  Michael's,  the  priests 
and  teachers  have  prepared  each  one  for  his 
allotted   tasks. 

Approximately  half  of  the  graduates  decided 
to  continue  their  education  and  therefore  went 
to  the  University;  either  in  the  University 
Training  Plan,  or  in  preparation  for  their  entry 
into  one  of  the  services.  Many  of  the  boys  from 
last  year's  class  went  immediately  into  the 
Armed  Services,  and  the  rest  (about  one-fourth 
of  the  class)  entered  various  seminaries  with 
the  hope  and  prayer  of  becoming  a  soldier  in 
the   Army  of  Christ. 

Tom  Cullen.  Bill  Fenn  and  John  Kelly 
joined  the  many  Saint  Michael's  grads  in  Saint 
Augustine's'  Seminan'  after  they  had  helped 
the  food  crops  along  during  the  summer 
months.  With  them  went  Pat  MacNamara. 
who  spent  the  summer  working  at  Canada 
Packers.  Paul  Flaherty,  of  dramatic  renown, 
completes  the  list  of  those  who  travelled  the 
highway  to  Saint  Augustine's.  Frank  Cunnerty 
went  to  the  Redemptorist  Novitiate  after  he  had 
spent  the  summer  months  on  the  farm. 

The  Basilian  Novitiate  was  the  goal  of  many 
of  the  grads.  To  be  specific,  Larry  Faye,  Hodg- 
son Marshall  and  Fred  Black,  who  is  now  tak- 
ing Honour  Philosophy  at  the  University, 
joined  up  with  the  Basilians.  With  them  are 
"ex-Majors"  Hugh  Foley  and  Gerry  Grcgoire. 
Don  Finley,  another  Double  Blue  puckster.  is 
also  "on  the  hill."  John  Wilson,  Wally  Piatt 
(one  of  our  most  competent  actors),  and  David 
Levack.  who  is  now  at  Assumption  College  in 
Windsor,  were  others  who  went  to  study  for  the 
priesthood. 

The  majority  of  those  who  elected  to  join 
the   armed   forces   right   away  after   graduation 


chose  the  Royal  ('anadian  Air  Force.  Among 
this  group  are  former  C'adet  Major  Charles  Bal- 
four, who  is  now  at  Uplands,  and  former  Cadet 
Captain  Fred  Hickev,  who  is  stationed  at  Mal- 
ton.  John  Brislan  gained  a  spot  in  the  Precision 
Squad  before  he  went  overseas.  Farrell  Galla- 
gher recovered  from  his  hockey  injury  and 
joined  Gene  St.  Marie  in  the  Air  Force.  Spe- 
cialists Seitz  and  Sevigny  are  taking  courses  in 
navigation  and  armouring  respectively.  Oh  yes, 
and  Bob  C^ummins;  what  did  he  do.'  The  big- 
gest job  in  North  America  was  the  only  thing 
for  him.  He  was  "cookie"  for  many  Alcan 
Highway  workers.  He  is  still  cooking,  as  an 
R.C.A.f!   pilot. 

Arne  Berg.  Vince  Lundy  and  Harold  Levick 
arc  in  the  Army  now.  Wes  Sumner,  who  is 
now  overseas,  and  John  McCann  are  other 
Army  men  and  Mel  Shand  hopes  to  be  with  his 
former  buddies  soon. 

It  is  now  "Lamantia  and  Son"  where  Law- 
rence works.  Bob  White  and  Jim  Mclsaacs 
also  became  business  men.  Bob  is  a  fur-cutter, 
while  Mac  is  in  the  office  of  'Bowser's  Instru- 
ments." Jim  Coulter,  a  married  man  now,  is 
in  the  transport  business. 

The  bulk  of  the  graduates  could  not  bear  to 
bring  their  pursuit  for  learning  to  such  an 
abrupt  end  and,  as  a  result,  we  find  about  one- 
half  of  the  Class  of  '42  in  one  University  or 
another.  Paul  Duggan  and  George  Runnels 
had  a  private  "Back  to  the  Land  Movement" 
during  the  summer  months,  but  now  they  can 
be  found  any  day  at  S.P.S.  where  they  are  study- 
ing to  be  metallurgists.  The  Arts  course  beck- 
oned to  Tom  Halpin  (Remember  Mr.  De  Pinna 
in  "You  Can't  Take  It  With  You),  Karl  Aszt, 
Raoul  Spadoni,  John  O'Mara  and  Eugene  Mul- 
hall.  Those  two  thumping  defense  men  for  the 
Majors.  George  Dodd  and  Tommy  O'Neill,  are 
in  the  Air  Force  Training  Plan  at  the  Uni- 
versity. 

M'hen  the  train  pulled  out  of  Union  Station 
last  fall  for  the  "Harvest"  in  the  West,  St. 
Mikes  was  well  reprecented.  Hub  Higgins. 
Des  Fitzgerald,  Paul  Irish  and  Hub  Teolis 
along  with  O'Neill  and  Dodd  represented  this 
class  in  that   high-class  contingent. 

Summertime    farmers    who     came     back     to 
College    were    Bill    Grell    (mining    at    S..P.S.). 
Mel    Hartman    (S.M.C.).    and    Frank    Buckley

SENIOR  HIGH  SCHOOL  FOOTBALL.

ahead.  Inspired  now,  the  Irish  hit  the  line, 
ran  the  ends  and  tossed  the  ball  to  speedy 
ends  to  swarm  all  over  their  gallant  foe  from 
Oaklands  and  to  score  another  touchdown  be- 
fore the  final  whistle.  St.  Mikes  were  back 
in  the  win  column  with  a  glorious  11-3  vic- 
tory. 

At  this  stage  of  the  season.  Lady  Luck  be- 
gan to  desert  the  Irish  and  one  injury  led  to  an- 
other. The  first  blow  came  when  Bob  Schnurr 
had  his  ribs  caved  in  while  practising  blocking 
and  tackling  plays.  Marois,  Bennett,  Pelliz- 
zeri,  Huck  and  Brick  all  suffered  injuries  and 
watched  the  last  game  from  the  sidelines. 
Again  the  scene  of  battle  was  Upper  Canada 
College  and  this  time  the  opposition  was  the 
Blue-clad  squad  on  their  own  field.  Play  was 
strenuous  throughout  and  although  outscored, 
the  Irish  were  not  outplayed.  Time  and  again 
we  had  the  scoring  opportunities  but  could 
not  take  advantage  of  them.  Upper  Canada 
played  well  and  deserved  her  victory  when  she 


showed  so  much  aggressiveness  when  in  scor- 
ing position.  The  final  score  was  6-0  in  favor 
of  L'pper  Canada  College. 

Now  a  word  about  the  players.  Captain 
George  Callaghan  played  brilliantly  throughout 
the  season  and  was  a  bulwark  of  strength  on 
the  forward  wall.  Ably  assisting  him  up  front 
were  Doug  Hatch  and  Tierney  at  the  center 
spot;  Brick,  O'Hanlon,  McTague,  Murray  and 
Mike  Sullivan  in  the  middle  of  the  line,  and 
Huck,  Kozel,  Frezell,  Bennett  and  MacLellan 
at    the    ends. 

Until  injuries  moved  in,  the  team  was 
strong  in  the  backfield.  Bob  Schnurr  handled 
the  team  capably  from  the  quarter  position 
and  when  he  was  forced  to  retire,  Joe  Solarski 
did  a  fine  job.  At  the  half  positions  were  Dave 
Bauer,  Pete  D'Agostino  and  Frankie  Imonti, 
and  each  one  of  them  played  brilliantly 
throughout  the  season.  At  the  plunging  back 
spot  were  Johnny  Marois  and  Mario  Pelliz- 
zeri,  both  of  whom  knew  where  to  go  when 
that  ball  was  slipped  into  their  mid-section. 
Johnny  played  a  clever  game  throughout  in  the 
center  secondary  defensive  position.

The  Senior  Oratorical  Contest —  1943 


BACK   ROW— F.  Chlaramonte.   J,   OBiien.   W.   O'Boyle 
tRONT  ROW— D.  McCarthy,  W.  Foran.  L.  Dwan.  Rev 
F.  Byrnes. 

A  FTER  a  great  deal  of  sifting  among  the 
■^  *■  orators  of  Grades  XI,  XII  and  XIII.  four 
speakers  still  remained  by  the  end  of  the  month 
of  March.  They  had  reached  the  final  stage 
wherein  they  were  to  battle  it  out  for  the  hon- 
our of  being  the  best  orator  in  St..  Michael's 
College  School.  On  April  9th  the  Senior  Ora- 
torical Contest  was  held  in  the  school  auditor- 
ium. There,  before  the  staff  and  students,  the 
speakers  showed  themselves  to  be  in  the  tradi- 
tion of  Demosthenes,  Cicero,  Chrysostom  and 
Burke.  Only  one  could  be  chosen  the  "best," 
but  all  present  felt  that  the  four  finalists  had 
scored   a   triumph. 

Gerald  Dewan,  Grade  XII-2,  captured  first 
place.  The  subject  which  he  chose  for  his  speech 
was,  "It's  Great  to  be  Alive."  A  quotation 
shows  the  spirit  of  his  address:  "No  era  in  his- 
tory has  thrown  down  such  challenges  to  youth 
as  ours  has.  I  should  like  to  live  to  be  a  hun- 
dred, not  to  win  the  war — that  is  won — but  to 
win  the  peace." 

Dan  McCarthy,  Grade  XII-1.  was  the  second 


W,      OLeary. 

best  speaker  in  the  contest.  He  won  this  posi- 
tion with  the  speech  entitled.  "Death  in  the 
Stratosphere."  He  pointed  out  to  a  very  inter- 
ested audience  that  there  are  machines  which 
can  go  into  the  stratosphere,  but  man  cannot 
travel   in   them. 

William  O'Leary,  who  represented  Grade 
XIII-1,  gave  a  very  eloquent  address  on  "The 
Dangers  of  Hate."  In  his  talk,  he  told  us  that 
we  were  safe  in  hating  evil,  but  that  it  was  con- 
trary to  Christian  charity  to  hate  man. 

Frank  Chiaramonte,  Grade  XI-3,  gave  a  very 
fiery  talk  on  "Saint  Michael's  in  the  Sport 
World."  He  established  two  facts  in  his  speech: 
first,  that  the  men  of  might  of  bygone  days  put 
St.  Michael's  on  the  sport  map;  and  second,  the 
boys  of  our  time  are  doing  a  grand  job  in  keep- 
ing it   there. 

The  Contest  was  ably  conducted  by  chair- 
man Warren  Winslow  of  Grade  XI-2.  The 
judges  were  Messrs.  John  Casey,  Thomas  Jacob 
and  William  O'Brien.

The  Junior  Oratorical  Contest  —  1943 


TPHE   finals   of   the  annual   Junior   Oratorical 

Contest  were  held  on  Thursday.  April  the 
eighth.  The  preliminary  action  leading  to  the 
decisive  battle  had  been  going  on  since  early  in 
the  school  year.  The  five  Ninth  grades  and  the 
four  Tenth  grades  had  their  representatives 
among  the  competitors.  Every  week  for  six 
months,  speeches  were  held  in  the  individual 
classrooms  and  every  boy  had  the  opportunity 
to  take  part.  No  one  was  exempt  from  this 
school  activity.  In  January  the  classroom  finals 
were  held  and  each  class  presented  their  repre- 
sentative for  the  semi-final  round.  From  this 
group  four  boys  were  eliminated  and  everything 
was  now  in  readiness  for  the  final  contest. 

The  judge  was  Jack  McCreavy,  who,  in 
1941,  won  the  Oratorical  Contest  for  Secondary 
Schools  in  the  North  Bay  District.  The  Chair- 
man  for  the   occasion    was  Frank   Burns. 

After  many  inspiring  addresses  were  deliv- 
ered, Leon  Dewan,  who  represented  Grade  X-2, 
was  chosen  the  winner.  He  spoke  on  '"Radio 
Advertising."  It  was  very  humorous  through- 
out and  yet  very  true  to  life.  He  uncovered  sev- 
eral interesting  facts  to  his  listeners,  and  in  con- 
clusion he  warned  them  to  be  on  guard  against 
deceit   in  advertising. 

Paul  Harris,  Grade  X-1,  was  awarded  second 


place  in  the  contest.  He  told  a  very  interesting 
story  of  "The  Daredevils  of  Niagara  Falls."  The 
outstanding  character  in  the  tale  was  Blondin, 
he  who  walked  across  the  Falls  on  a  tight-rope. 

A  very  interesting  account  of  the  life  of  Car- 
dinal Newman  from  the  time  that  he  went  to 
school  until  the  time  of  his  death  in  the  year 
1890  was  given  by  William  O'Boyle  who  repre- 
sented Grade  X-4  in  the  contest. 

John  O'Brien,  Grade  X-i.  definitely  made 
the  most  humorous  speech  of  the  day.  His  sub- 
ject was  "My  New  Deal,"  a  dream  in  which 
everything  came  very  easily  to  him  every  mo- 
ment of  the  day. 

Clare  Malone,  the  lone  ninth  grader  in  the 
contest  and  who  hails  from  Grade  IX-1,  spoke 
like  a  real  campaigner.  He  gave  a  very  detailed 
account  of  the  building  of  the  Panama  Canal 
from  the  time  that  it  was  first  proposed  until 
the  first  boat  passed  through  it  in  1915. 

The  contest  was  handled  by  Peter  Somer- 
ville  who  acted  as  chairman  for  the  occasion. 
His  clear  voice  and  well-chosen  remarks  to  in- 
troduce the  different  speakers  were  well  received 
by  the  audience.  The  contest  proved  at  least 
one  fact,  namely  that  St.  Michael's  College 
School  will  be  well  supplied  with  able  speakers 
for  some  years  to  come.

some  last  minute  changes  in  the  Escort  Frank 
Thornley's  lists  and  gives  last  minute  instruc- 
tions to  prompters  Tom  Bewley  and  Jack  Meyer. 
Chief  stagehand  Bob  Walker,  with  Al.  Smith, 
Bernard  Gillies,  Jim  Zavitsky.  Cliff  Olmstead 
and  Paul  Harris  grouped  around  him,  takes  a 
last  worried  look  to  see  if  everything  necessary 
is  on  stage.  Bob's  hard  work  was  a  big  factor 
in  making  the  play  move  smoothly  and  swiftly 
from  scene  to  scene.  Those  who  are  worrying 
least  about  their  parts  are  Bill  Dalglish,  Clare 
Malone,  Eugene  Donohue,  Bob  Colucci  and 
Frank  Chiaramonte  the  escorted  souls  boarding 
the  "Paradise  Airliner."  They  laugh  and  talk 
in  loud  boistrous  tones  on  a  bench  near  the 
make-up  chairs. 


"Everybody  on  stage  immediately,"  a  sharp 
voice  sings  out,  to  be  followed  by  a  concerted 
rush  to  the  stage.  There  in  low  tones  we  hear 
from  the  director,  "You  have  a  full  house  out 
there.  They're  yours.  You  can  do  anything  you 
like  with  them.  But,  remember,  live  your  part; 
don't  let  the  people  out  there  bother  you. 
Don't  be  nervous;  be  natural."  That  was  8.25 
Wednesday,  March  the  third,  and  then  in  the

football  games,  director  and  cast  kneeling,  mur- 
mured three  fervent  .Xve's.  As  the  curtain 
parting  revealed  the  eerily  lit  celestial  flying 
field,  all  the  tenseness  that  had  gripped  the  ac- 
tors during  those  last,  chilling  moments  of 
expectancy  succumbed  to  a  compelling  confi- 
dence, a  determination  to  make  it  a  worthy  St. 
Michael's  effort,  to  captivate  their  audience  and 
leave  with  them  the  memory  of  an  evening  of 
honest  enjoyment.

Ach.   I   means    Mein    Woden    in    Himmel! 

Was   ist   das  sticking  out  of  der  plane  belly?" 

Der  Pilot:  "Dose  ist  die  arrows  of  der 
Michael  Boys  in  Toronto." 

At  least  that  dialogue  will  be  typical,  ac- 
cording to  the  members  of  the  newly  formed 
Double-Blue  Archery  Club.  And  evidently  the 
enemy  considers  our  efforts  of  such  importance 
that  they  have  employed  saboteurs  to  dis- 
courage us — our  straw  bales  were  set  ablaze 
after  two  days'  service  as  a  target.  We  sus- 
pect foreign  agents  who  realize  our  potential 
might. 

At  the  time  of  writing,  we  must  class  our 
archery  as  an  endeavour  rather  than  a  sport, 
because   as   yet    little   actual   shooting   has   been 


done.  For  a  month  now,  a  group  of  about  a 
dozen  boys  has  been  gathering  in  a  class-room 
several  times  a  week  to  saw  and  sand  and  paint 
and  shellac.  Those  who  could  not  stay  each 
night,  studied  the  tricks  of  the  trade  and 
worked  at  home.  Today  each  boy  has  a  set 
of  well-formed  arrows  of  the  best  materials 
obtainable. 

And  how  can  high  school  boys  afford  the 
best  in  arrow  materials?  Well,  simply  because 
archery,  besides  having  the  most  universal  ap- 
peal of  all  sports,  is  also  one  of  the  least  costly. 

Since    we    can't    tell    you    much    about    our 

own    club,    let   us   explain   a    few    things   about 

archery  in  general.     First  of  all,  archery  is  not 

an   expensive   sport   as    people    imagine,   unless,

The  Saint  Michael's  College  School  Cadets 


"Tp  HE  Saint  Michael's 
^  Army  Cadet  Corps 
definitely  came  into  its  own 
this  year  by  virtue  of  a 
considerably  more  exten- 
sive training  programme. 
Under  the  direction  of 
Father  M.  F.  Whelan.  they 
will  close  a  season  this 
j^j    y^^^  year,  the  success  of  which, 

points   to   an  early   preced- 
ence in  the  field  of  High  School  Cadets. 

As  in  former  years,  the  training  was  again 
under  the  supervision  of  Mr.  Robert  Ford,  while 
the  fundamentals  of  parade  drill  were  driven 
home  in  a  practical  way  by  Sergeant  J.  Barnes 
of  the  80th  Reserve  Veteran  Guards.  A  pro- 
longation of  fine  weather  in  the  Fall  Term  al- 
lowed the  Corps  an  extensive  period  of  out-door 
drilling,  which  featured  three  successful  route 
marches. 

When  weather  conditions  no  longer  per- 
mitted the  use  of  the  parade  ground,  the  cadets 
were   admitted   to  a   series   of  other  courses   in 


Sgt.    Barnes 


Basic  Military  Training. 
This  programme  was  in- 
augurated to  comply  with 
the  requirements  of  the 
Defense  Training  Course 
as  outlined  by  the  Depart- 
ment of  Education,  and 
was  made  possible  at  Saint 
Michael's  through  the  kind 
assistance  of  qualified  in- 
structors from  the  vari- 
ous branches  of  Military  Service,  including  the 
Saint  John's  Ambulance  Association.  Perhaps 
the  most  outstanding  course  given  in  this  field 
of  instruction  was  that  of  First  .-Vid,  under  the 
tutorship  of  Sergeant  Major  E.  M.  Sullings. 
This  course  extended  over  a  period  of  eight 
weeks  and  resulted  in  the  attainment  of  four 
hundred  and  twenty-three  Junior  and  Senior 
certificates,  setting  an  all-time  record  as  the 
largest  group  ever  to  graduate  from  the  St. 
John's  Ambulance  Course.  Certificates  were 
issued  on  the  basis  of  a  minute  examination. 
This    examination    was    conducted    bv    Lt.-Col. 


One  Hundred   Twenty-Three 


ia>MifeW*^WV^g^^W^>^fe«»fe^»-^ 


Spicer,  Medical  Officer  of  this  district,  who  was 
assisted  by  other  examiners  from  the  Army 
Medical  Corps,  and  the  Military  Police. 

A  course  in  Knots  and  Splices  was  given  by 
Leading  Seaman  Hastings  through  the  co-opera- 
tion of  the  Navy  Department.  This  was  fol- 
lowed by  a  course  of  instruction  in  the  use  and 
mechanism  of  the  Bren  Machine  Gun,  given 
by  Sgt.-Major  Wilson  of  the  Toronto  Irish 
Regiment  which,  incidentally,  is  the  regiment 
with  which  our  Cadet  Corps  is  affiliated.  The 
signalling  corps,  comprised  of  the  students  in 
Grade  Twelve,  Section  Three,  underwent  a  thor- 
ough course  in  this  branch  of  training  given  by 
Company  Sgt.-Major  Kane,  also  of  the  Toronto 
Irish  Regiment.  In  line  with  the  advance  made 
in  other   departments  this  year,  a   pronounced 


increase  in  interest,  as  well  as  considerable  im- 
provement in  precision,  was  clearly  evident  on 
the  rifle  ranges.  Final  honors  in  this  domain 
were  captured  by  William  Ramsbottom  (Grade 
Ten)  who  succeeded  in  ousting  his  co-finalists 
only  by  registering  a  consistent  series  of  perfect 
scores. 

As  the  end  of  the  school  term  draws  to  a 
close,  the  Corps  is  being  groomed  for  its  Annual 
Inspection,  which  is  scheduled  to  take  place  on 
May  28th.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  almost  the 
entire  Corps  will  appear  for  the  first  time  in 
their  new  Army  Cadet  uniforms,  and  also  due 
to  the  fact  that  a  more  extensive  programme  is 
made  possible  as  a  result  of  the  courses  men- 
tioned above,  the  inspection  this  year  promises 
to  be  one  of  the  major  activities  of  the  school 
year.

Senior  House  League  Football 


'"p  HE   football  season   for   the   year    1942    was 

a  most  prosperous  one  for  the  Senior  League. 
Four  well-balanced  teams  with  fine  coaches, 
combined  to  give  us  hard-hitting,  powerful  ag- 
gregations. What  they  lacked  in  ability  they 
made  up  in  determination  and  the  spirit  that 
has  made  St.  Michael's  teams  famous  down 
through  the  years. 

The  Wellingtons  were  well  coached  by 
Father  Dorsey.  and  after  some  bitter  struggles, 
managed  to  walk  off  with  the  silverware  at 
the  end  of  the  schedule.  The  outcome  of 
the  playoffs  proved  to  be  one  of  the  greatest 
upsets  ever  witnessed  in  Senior  House  League 
competition. 

Throughout  the  schedule.  Father  Ruth's 
Devastators  roared  along  without  a  loss.  Harris, 
O'Hara,  Chard,  Flvnn  and  Harrison  played 
outstanding  football  in  the  backfield,  and  the 
hard  tackling  and  defensive  work  of  DeLatt, 
Cuneo.  Abbott  and  Clune  on  the  forward  line 
rounded  out  a  well-balanced  team.  Cudmore 
and  Callaghan  were  pillars  of  granite  in  the 
center  of  the  line  and  were  outstanding  for 
their  ability  to  snap  the  ball  with  unerring  ac- 
curacy. 

The  Flying  Fortresses  and  the  Lancasters 
were  not  as  powerful  as  the  other  two  teams, 
but  they  were  very  popular  with  the  fans 
with   their   "never-say-die"   spirit.     They   never 


gave  up  fighting  and  each  team  proved  itself 
a  threat  in  every  game.  The  Flying  For- 
tresses, coached  by  Father  McCarthy,  was  well 
armed  with  four  great  backs,  .\lsop.  Sand- 
ford,  Aprile  and  Nadal  consistently  broke 
through  the  opposition's  forward  wall  for  long 
gains,  but  frequentlv  lacked  the  punch  when 
in  scoring  position.  Stanton.  Whitcombe, 
Black,  Jensen,  Ingoldsby  and  Williams  played 
well  on   the  line. 

Father  Boland's  Lancasters  finished  second 
in  the  standing  for  the  scheduled  games.  They 
might  well  be  termed  the  "fightin"  Irish"  of 
the  league.  Hall,  McGovern,  Walsh  and  Law- 
lor  played  outstanding  football  and  were  given 
great  suppwrt  on  the  line  bv  Marion.  Wilson, 
Carr  and  Bonhomme.  A  tricky  and  hard- 
running  backfield  was  made  up  of  Winslow. 
Richardson  and  Smith.  Combine  these  play- 
ers and  you  have  a  formidable  club  which  was 
always  hard  to  beat. 

During  the  regular  schedule,  the  Flving 
Fortresses  and  the  Lancasters  were  eliminated 
and  the  Wellingtons  and  Devastators  met  in 
the  finals  in  a  best  "two  out  of  three  game 
series."  The  first  game  was  won  bv  the  Wel- 
lingtons in  a  game  that  featured  many  new 
plays,  hard  tackling  and  brilliant  open  field 
running.  The  final  score  was  10-5.  The 
second  game  provided  more  thrills  for  the  fans 
than  all  the  other  games  of  the  season  put

Junior  House  League  Football 


tp  ARI.V  in  the  f.ill  a  call  went  forth  to  all 
^  those  aspiring  to  play  football  in  the  Junior 
House  League.  Over  fifty  lads  responded  to 
the  call  and  they  were  allotted  to  teams  which 
bore  names  corresponding  to  diflcrent  types 
of  aircraft.  After  a  few  short,  snappy  drills, 
the   schedule   began. 

The  Spitfires,  coached  by  Mr.  Bergeron, 
were  paced  by  John  Piatt,  who  terrorized  the 
League  with  his  driving,  shifty  runs,  accurate 
passing  and  hard  tackling.  Billy  MacNamara 
was  Piatt's  running  mate  and  he  crossed  the 
goal-line  frequently  during  the  season.  He'll  bear 
watching  in  the  near  future  and  is  one  of  the 
most  promising  prospects  for  Senior  High 
School  Football.  Pat  Killoran  and  Charlie 
Campbell  alternately  handled  the  team  from 
the  quarter-back  position.  Jack  Reid,  Louis 
Quinn  and  Peter  McDonough  stoutly  flanked 
Tom    Melady   at   the   center  spot. 

The  Hurricanes,  coached  by  Mr.  Hogan, 
had  Doug  Archer  calling  the  signals  with 
Phillips  and  Whitaker  doing  most  of  the  ball- 
carrying.  The  forward  wall  was  composed  of 
Burns,  Raftis  and  Phelan.  The  passing  com- 
bination of  Burns  and  I^hillips,  which  account- 
ed  for   much   yardage,  was  second   to   none. 

The  Beaufighters,  directed  by  Mr.  Drouil- 
lard,  had  two  hard-running  half-backs  in 
Leonard  Cook  and  Bill  Dunn.     Diminutive  Bill 


Cowley  set  up  most  of  the  plays  at  quarter. 
Paul  Masscy,  the  most  rugged  end  in  the  league, 
was  ably  assisted  on  the  line  by  "Crusher" 
Fitzgerald,  Jerome  and  Keenan.  These  three 
boys  were  very  capable  pass-receivers. 

The  Aircobras,  managed  by  Mr.  Madden, 
was  perhaps  the  best  balanced  team  in  the 
league.  The  inspiration  of  "Molecule"  Wil- 
liams, quarter-back,  kept  up  the  driving  spirit 
of  this  team.  Paul  Wilson  was  a  one-man 
Panzer  Division — he  just  rolled  over  all  ob- 
stacle? in  his  path.  "The  Tank"  made  his 
own  holes  and  was  seldom  stopped  less  than 
five  yards  over  the  line  of  scrimmage.  "Nellie" 
Bernier  was  a  whip  at  slipping  around  oppos- 
ing ends  on  touchdown  sprints.  The  first  line 
of  Masters,  McDonald  and  O'Brien  broke  up 
many  a  prospective  play  ere  it  started.  The 
second  line  of  Quinn,  Lawlor  and  Sullivan 
tilled   in  handily. 

After  the  warm-up  period,  during  which 
several  exhibition  games  were  played,  the  re- 
gular schedule  began.  Every  game  had  its 
high  spots  for  action  and  kept  the  spectators 
right  on  their  toes.  When  the  last  game  of 
the  regular  schedule  was  over,  the  Spitfires 
were  in  first  place,  followed  by  the  Aircobras, 
Beaufighters  and  Hurricanes. 

The  playofTs  served  up  the  biggest  surprise 
of  the  season.  The  Beaufighters  defeated  the 
highly  respected  Spitfires.  Cook  and 
Massey  were  too  much  for  Piatt's 
"pluggers."  The  most  sanctioned 
"stand"  of  the  year  was  put  up  by 
the  Beaufighters  in  the  closing  min- 
utes of  the  game  Leading  by  six 
points,  and  with  less  than  two  min- 
utes to  go,  they  found  themselves  on 
their  own  one-yard  line  with  the  ball 
in  the  hands  of  the  opposition  and 
three  downs  to  go  for  a  touchdown. 
But  grim  determination  and  some 
fine  tackling  kept  the  opposing  backs

past  five  years  .  .  .  Two  Superiors  of  St. 
Michael's  were  on  the  Year  Book  staff  in  1911: 
Father  McCorkell  was  Editor;  the  late  Rev. 
Fr.  Bellisle,  the  Business  Manager.  Rev.  Chas. 
E.  Coughlin  of  the  Little  Flower  Shrine  was 
Class  President  that  year  .  .  .  His  Grace  Bishop 
Dignan  was  also  in  that  class  ...  St.  Mikes 
have  another  of  the  McNamara  hockey  clan 
ready  for  O.H.A.  delivery  in  1960,  Sub. -Lieut. 
George's  first  son  .  .  .  The  first  Student's  Coun- 


cil was  founded  in  1928;  Eddie  Convey,  former 
pro.  hockey  star  and  Frank  Pujolas  of  the 
Catholic  Youth  Magazine  and  the  Canadian 
Register  were  on  the  Council  ...  In  the  past 
five  years,  the  Irish  have  won  15  of  a  possible 
20  T.H.L.  Prep  group  championships  .  .  .  Ac- 
cording to  the  192S  Year  Book  the  first  F'oot- 
ball  ever  seen  in  Ontario  was  kicked  in  oui 
yard:  One,  Andv  linan,  a  native  of  the  Emerald 
Isle,  landed  in  Toronto  and  entered  St.  Michael's 
in  1860.  He  had  Wm.  Guinane  manufacture  a 
football  and  introduced  the  game  to  this  dis- 
trict .  .  .  Rt.  Rev.  Msgr.  Brennan  of  St.  Augus- 
tine's Seminary  is  a  former  St.  Mikes  boy  .  .  . 
Father  Morrison,  Director  of  C'atechetical 
Instruction  for  the  Archdiocese,  was  President 
of  the  Oratorical  Club  in  1929  ...  On  the  stair- 
way betwen  the  first  and  second  floors,  you  will 
see  the  cast  of  Silas  Marner  pictured.  Among 
the  actors  can  you  recognize  Father  Mallon, 
Father  Vincent  Egan,  Father  Gavard,  Father 
Barnett.-  .  .  .  Rev.  Mr.  Brown,  C.S.B.,  is  an- 
other St.  Mikes  boy  being  ordained  this  year 
.  .  .  The  first  gang  attack  in  hockey  was  or- 
ganized by  Father  McGahey  in  1928  when  St. 
Mikes  met  Marlboros;  Father  Whelan  played 
goal  for  that  team  .  .  .  That  St.  Mikes  spirit 
was  just  as  strong  30  years  ago  as  it  is  today. 
Then  Toronto  papers  wrote  .  .  .  "the  gritty  col- 
legians" .  .  .  "there  was  lots  of  fight  in  the  lads" 
.  .  .  "the  sportsman-like  way  in  which  the  Col- 
legians took  their  defeat,"  .  .  .  "the  cleanest, 
fastest,  most  aggressive  organization."  "You 
must  hand  it  to  St.  Mikes;  they  always  die 
game."  .  .  .  Three  St.  Mikes  boys  graduated  from 
Meds  last  year:  Dr.  Jack  Mickler,  who  led  the 
entire  L'niversity;  Fit.  Lieut.  Dr.  Cliff  Healy 
and  Dr.  Leonard  Ryan  .  .  .  Paul  McNamara. 
Lieut.  Jerry  Horgan,  F.O.  Tommy  Dunn  and 
Cpl.  Neil  Morrison  were  married  recently  .  .  . 
one-quarter  of  last  year's  high  school  graduates 
are  now  studying  for  the  priesthood  .  .  .  Tommy 
O'Neil  signed  with  the  Leafs  .  .  .  Pro.  Scouts 
have  been  taking  a  good  look  at  Frank  Bennett, 
Pat.  Powers,  Frank  Dunlap  .  .  .  the  four  Mc- 
Lean brothers,  Leo,  Tom,  Bill  and  Paul,  all  St. 
Mikes  boys,  are  in  the  Armed  Services  .  .  .  The 
St.  Mikes  "Kellys"  are  all-represented  in  the 
Forces:  there  are  16  of  them  listed  ...  of  the

TOMORROW 


As  the  Youth  of  Today  provides 
the  business  life  of  tomorrow,  so  in 
the  busy  mart  of  everyday  affairs 
our  plans  at  present  concentrated 
upon  the  wrar  effort  of  our  Coun- 
try, should  embrace  a  thought  for 
that  eventful  day  when  we  shall 
again  unfurl  the  banner  of  Peace. 

Your  product,  trade  name  and 
reputation,  despite  the  vicissi- 
tudes of  war  should  be  carefully 
preserved  against  the  day  when 
once  again  your  plant  no  longer 
employed  in  the  production  of 
Munitions  and  war-time  supplies, 
shall  be  ready  and  waiting  to 
resume  peace-time  production. 

Let  us  discuss  with  you  a  modest 
campaign  of  institutional  pubhc- 
ity.  In  the  meantime,  let  us  not 
forget  that  other  campaign  which

(1)  liven  on  the  coldest  day  in  January  there  was 
no  lack  of  "Heat"  if  you  were  in  Father  Ruth's  Grade 
XI  Physics.  We  also  studied  Light,  Sound,  and  Elec- 
tricity; leaving  the  harder  Mechanics  for  Grade  XIII. 
We  hope  to  be  clever  enough  to  study  it  too,  some  day. 
Try   to   look   studious.   Joe. 

(2)  In  the  Chemistry  Laboratory  Mr.  Brown  initi- 
ates Grade  XII  students  in  the  art  of  handling  test-tubes: 
in  Grade  XIII  he  perfects  the  work.     Sometimes    they  make  us  wish  we  had  our  gas-masks  handy. 

(.?)   Mr.  Meyers  stands  by,  as  his  Upper  School    students  examine  the  smaller  things  in  the  world 

of  plants,   animals,   and   insects.     These  are   the  doctors

(4)  The  boys  of  Grades  IX  and  X,  under  the  guid- 
ance of  Father  Agius  and  Mr.  Moran,  also  show  a  keen 
interest  in  science.  Here  they  are  producing  clear  "dis- 
tilled" water  from  a  solution  of  ink,  water  and  salt. 
Terry  "The  Wise"  wants  to  know  if  water  is  the  only

The  Father  and  Son  Banquet 


TP  HF  sure  sign  of  a  boy's  success  in  any  activ- 
itv  is  his  possession,  however  brief,  of  the 
spollif;ht  on  the  night  of  the  I'ather  and  Son 
Banquet.  It  is  then  that  athletes,  students, 
cadets,  orators,  all  receive  their  laurels  while 
schoolmates  of  the  past  and  present  acclaim 
them. 

For  the  School,  the  joy  is  not  only  in  those 
still  within  her  care,  but  also  in  those  who 
have  returned  for  one  night  to  share  the  cam- 
araderie thev  knew  in  their  youth  and  which 
they  see  continued  and  increased  in  their  sons. 
What  better  sight  for  school  and  staff  than  that 
of  former  pupils  returning  with  the  mark  of 
success  upon  them. 

Although  we  are  yet  to  enjoy  the  Third  An- 
nual Banquet,  this  event  already  is  firmly  estab- 
lished as  a  tradition,  and  small  wonder,  for 
nothing  adds  glamour  to  any  activity  like  the 
thought  of  recognition  on  this  night. 

Last  year,  as  in  the  previous  year,  the  set- 
ting was  spacious  Brennan  Hall  dining-room, 
but  even  this  was  not  large  enough  to  accommo- 
date the  crowd.  Informal  meetings  were  held 
outside  during  which  time  the  fathers  met  the 
teachers,  in  many  cases  for  the  first  time.  Then 
we  proceeded  to  the  dining  hall  and  the  sump- 
tuous banquet  which  is  erased  from  a  high  place 
in  our  memory  only  by  the  grandeur  of  the 
ceremonies  which   followed. 


Again  the  affair  dissolved  to  informality 
while  the  "dad"  of  each  boy  present  enjoyed  his 
smoke  and  a  delightful  concert  by  the  newly- 
uniformed  band  under  the  direction  of  Pro- 
fessor Cesar  Borre.  When  the  ceremonies  be- 
gan again,  the  Very  Reverend  T.  P.  McLaugh- 
lin. C.S.B.,  President  of  Saint  Michael's  College, 
introduced  the  guest  speaker,  The  Honourable 
P.  M.  Dewan.  Provincial  Minister  of  Agricul- 
ture, who  extolled  the  benefits  of  Father  and 
Son  companionship. 

Then  the  many  awards  were  presented  to 
the  deserving  students.  The  Honour  students 
took  the  spotlight  for  the  presentation  of  Aca- 
demic awards.  The  football  and  hockey  teams 
were  recognized  for  their  ability  and  sportsman- 
ship in  competition.  The  outstanding  cadets 
in  the  Saint  Michael's  College  Cadet  Corps 
were  acclaimed  by  all  present.  The  T.H.L. 
Championship  teams  were  next  in  line  for 
honours  and  each  member  received  a  trophy 
and  a  wind-breaker.  The  more  recent,  but  not 
the  least  of  the  more  than  one  hundred  awards 
presented,  were  those  to  the  winners  of  the 
Junior  and    Senior  Oratorical  Contests. 

At  last  every  effort  had  been  rewarded  and 
every  feat  acknowledged.  Everywhere,  cups, 
crests,  medals  and  other  awards  were  being 
admired  by  proud  fathers  and  friends.  Saint 
Michael's  had  paid  its  tribute  to  its  stalwart 
sons.

away  from  their  Ime  and  the  final  whistle  blew 
to  put  the  Beaufighters  in  the  finals. 

In  the  second  series,  the  Aircobras  took  the 
measure  of  the  Hurricanes  after  a  strenuous 
struggle.  In  the  final  series  the  Aircobras 
battled  the  Beaufighters  for  the  championship 
of  the  J.H.L. 

The  teams  lined  up  on  a  snow-swept  field 
with  a  considerable  number  of  hardy  fans 
present  to  witness  the  outstanding  game  of 
the  vear.  The  Beaufighters  drew  first  blood. 
Early  in  the  game,  Bernier  was  rouged  on 
a  long  kick  by  Jerome.  Play  see-sawed  back 
and  forth  during  the  first  half.  Just  before  the 
half-time   whistle    blew.    Cook    took    advantage 


of  an  Aircobra  fumble  to  score  an  uncon- 
verted major. 

The  Aircobras  opened  the  second  half  with 
a  drive  down  the  field  that  didn't  stop  until 
Brenier  plunged  over  from  the  four-yard  mark. 
An  attempted  pass  for  the  extra  point  failed 
and  Beaufighters  were  still  in  the  lead  6-5.  The 
Aircobras,  inspired  now,  kept  the  initiative 
and  they  threatened  time  and  again  to  put  the 
game  "on  ice,"  but  the  battling  Beaufighters 
reproduced  their  gallant  goal-line  stand  of  the 
Spitfire  game  and  time  after  time  hurled  back 
the  Aircobra  threat.  The  final  whistle  blew 
to  close  one  of  the  most  spectacular  and  sensa- 
tional "finals"  the  Junior  House  League  has 
ever  offered  its  followers. 

New  and  Worthy  Champions — The  Beau- 
fighters.    Congratulations!

jII    shjrrcl    with    wcc   mifes   who    lisp    in    f;ciillr 
overtures,   "Croodv.   wc   tied   thrm!" 

It's  a  hopeless  situation,  and  a  cruel,  unjust 
one.  The  only  solution  that  I  can  see  is  a  radi- 
cal course.  I  thought  of  it  all  last  night.  That's 
why  I  look  so  tired.  The  students  of  St. 
Mikes  must  unite,  throw  all  the  city  presses  in 
Toronto  Harbour,  drown  all  newspaper  men 
in  a  similar  body  of  water,  (they're  all  wet, 
anyway),  and  print  a  neutral  paper  giving  St. 
Mikes  at  least  what  they  cam  by  their  playing.

THE  BUZZERS. 
(Continued    from    page   57) 

the  finish  in  each  game.  In  the  first  game  the 
score  was  tied  at  the  end  of  the  first  period  and 
the  Irish  were  very  much  in  the  game  until 
the  last  bell.  Powers,  McLean,  and  Joe  Sadler 
got  the  three  goals  in  the  9-i  loss.  The  last 
game  was  another  great  battle.  Repeatedly  the 
Buzzers  were  outlucked  around  the  enemy  goal, 
while  U.T.S.  could  not  miss.  They  bowed  to  a 
superior  team,  but  only  after  a  real  fight  in 
which  Joe  Sadler's  efforts  were  rewarded  by  a 
goal  which  prevented  a  shut-out.  The  score 
was  8-1,  but  until  the  last  period  it  was  any- 
body's game. 

As  for  the  players,  Ted  McLean,  Pat  Powers, 
Joe  Marzalik,  and  Joe  Sadler  were  standouts, 
starring  in  every  game.  With  seven  goals  and 
sixteen  assists,  the  first  Joe  won  the  scoring  title 
of  the  group.  A  tireless  skater  and  tricky  stick- 
handler,  he  was  adept  at  breaking  from  his  own 
zone,  shifting  the  defence  out  of  position,  and 
swooping  in  on  goal.  Joe  Sadler,  second  on 
the  team  to  Muzz  in  scoring  with  nine  goals 
and  nine  assists,  featured  in  every  game  with 
his  persistent  back-checking.  When  the  team 
was  short-handed,  this  pair  went  over  the 
boards  to  hold  the  enemy.  Ted  McLean  and 
Pal  Powers,  playing  almost  without  rest,  made 
up  the  best  two-way  defence  in  the  group.  They 
were  a  pair  of  battlers.  They  got  a  piece  of 
every  opponent  who  ventured  near  them;  they 
got  the  puck  from  every  scramble  in  the  corner. 
In  addition,  they  led  many  a  rush  into  enemy 
territory,  and  banged  in  many  important  goals. 
Ray  Midghall  and  Mario  Pellizzari  assisted 
them  capably  when  called  upon.  The  stick- 
handling  wizard  of  the  team  was  Paul  Kane, 
Bus  Sadler,  his  left-winger,  battled  for  every 
loose  puck  and  got  his  reward  in  two  timely 
goals  in  the  victory  over  U.T.S.  Jack  Geary 
and  Doug  McGillivray,  snipers  of  no  mean 
ability,  were  in  the  scoring  summary  of  almost 
every  game.  Pete  D'Agostino  worried  the 
goalies  with  his  whistling  back-hand  shot   and 


kept  the  (larden's  attendants  busy  repairing 
the  screen.  Iti  goal  John  Hennett  and  Steve 
(^oates  took  turns  at  st.irring,  turning  hack 
many  a  dangerous  enemy  thrust.  It  was  a  line 
team,  and  congratulations  are  in  order  to  their 
coach,  I'ather  Whelan,  and  to  the  Buzzers,  a 
game,  scrappy  outfit  which  carried  on  splendidly 
the  best   traditions  of  the   I'ighting   Irish.

good.  He  thinks  ClifT  Midghall  has  the  speed 
of  Ernie  and  the  scrap  of  Jerry,  and  predicts  a 
great  future  for  him  and  the  Champions  on  the 
Minor-Bantams  and  the  King  Clancy  Bantams. 
The  St.  Michael's  Fan  was  sorry  to  see  the  year 
come  to  an  end,  but  when  he  drops  into  the 
yard  in  the  afternoon  to  see  the  ball  games,  he 
has  been  overheard  saying,  "It  sure  was  a  great 
year,  but  I  think  next  year  will  be  even  better." 


THE    SENIOR    SODALITY. 

(Continued   from   page    106) 
Sodality,   Mary   will  be  his  constant  protectress, 
not  only  during  his  school  years  but  especially 
during   the  difficult  years   that   follow  his   gra- 
duation. 

It  is  the  fervent  prayer  of  the  directors  and 
officers  of  the  Blessed  Virgin's  Sodality  that 
every  student  will,  during  the  time  he  spends 
at  St.  Michael's,  be  a  faithful  member  of  that 
Sodality,  so  that  the  devotion  he  has  culti- 
vated to  the  Mother  of  God  will  go  on  increas- 
ing throughout  the  years.  If  he  has  been  faith- 
ful, then  in  every  trial  and  temptation  that 
besets  him  he  will  turn  with  loving  trust  to 
Mary  with  the  prayer  so  fond  to  her:  "Mary, 
conceived  without  sin,  pray  for  us  who  have 
recourse  to  Thee." 


JUNIOR    SODALITY. 

(Continued  from  page  109) 
students.  Is  it  any  wonder  that  our  teachers, 
knowing  the  trials  and  pitfalls  we  will  en- 
counter later  in  life,  place  so  much  emphasis 
on  the  formation  of  our  character.'  Are  they 
expecting  too  much,  in  looking  to  us  as  models 
and  ideals  of  Christian  manhood,  a  few  years 
hence.' 

This  was  the  theme  of  the  weekly  instruc- 
tions given  by  our  prefect.  Father  Regan, 
throughout  the  year,  as  well  as  by  the  guest 
speakers,  Fr.  Brezik,  Fr.  Dwyer  and  Fr. 
Shook. 

May  our  devotion  to  Mary  which  has  been 
thus  fostered  and  cultivated,  form  a  daily  part 
of  our  lives  and  bear  abundant  fruit  when  the 
occasion   presents   itself.

THK  CLASS  OF  1942 
(Continued  from  page  110) 
( Acron;nitii';iI  Knpinccrinj;  at  the  Notre  Dame 
C'ollegc).  I'ornier  Cadet  OtTiter  Dave  Roche 
is  a  sergeant  in  the  C.O.T.C.  He  is  also  at 
S.P.S.  Jack  Lingeman  is  studying  industrial 
chemistry  at  Western  Tech.  Terry  McDon- 
oiigh,  one  of  Varsity's  "rasslers"  is  studying  to 
be  a  dentist.    Is  there  any  connection? 

John  Boland  is  at  Osgoode  Hall.  He  was  the 
editor  of  the  l'M2  Year  Book.  Leonard  Casciato 
and  Wally  Finley,  the  two  leaders  of  the  Class 
of  M2  entered  Math,  and  Physics,  and  ('ivil 
Engineering,  respectively.  George  Rebstock, 
who  played  for  Ostranders  in  hockey  during  the 
past  season  is  taking  Commerce  and  Finance. 
Sammy  Rich  is  now  at  .\ssumption  College. 
Jack  Phoenix  (S.M.C.)  has  his  eye  on  the 
Navy.  Some  day  it  will  be  Dr.  Paul  McRae. 
He  is  preparing  himself  now  with  a  pre-med. 
course  at  S.M.C.  If  it  is  your  teeth  that  are  act- 
ing up,  then  Dr.  VVm.  Metcalfe  will  be  your 
■lan. 

The  Class  of  1942  was  an  especially  talented 
one,  but  more  like  it  are  on  their  way  towards 
that  goal.  To  The  Basilian  Fathers  of  Saint 
Michael's  College  School,  we  respectively  offer 
our  sincere  thanks  with  a  prayer  in  our  hearts 
that  they  will  ever  continue  to  do  for  others 
v\hat  they  have  done  for  us.  They  have  given 
us  the  spirit  and  the  courage  to  carry  on  to  the 
great  heights  that  former  grads  of  St.  Mike's 
have    attained. 

THE  ARCHERY  CLUB. 
(Continued  from  page  120) 
of  course,  you  arc  too  lazy  to  make  your  equip- 
ment. The  very  best  material  for  an  arrow 
costs  fifteen  cents — or  less — and  you  need  only 
six  of  them.  A  bow  stave  and  string  take 
another  dollar.  Sacking  will  do  for  a  target, 
scraps  of  cast-off  leather  for  arm  guards,  finger- 
tabs  and  quivers.  Now  where  can  you  find 
a  sport  requiring  individual  equipment  costing 
only  two  dollars,  equipment  which,  with  the 
odd  feather  replacement,  will  last  a  lifetime. 
All  the  tools  necessary  are  a  few  files,  a  scraper, 
and  a  saw.  At  the  school  we  are  working  in 
a  class-room  with  just  those.  We  are  not  crafts- 
men by  any  means,  but  we  are  making  good 
arrows — as  anyone  can  who  has  a  little  patience. 
No  sport  puts  the  athlete  and  the  invalid, 
the  oldster  and  youngster,  on  an  even  basis  in 
competition  as  does  archery.  The  spectator  may 
shout  with  amazement  as  the  arrow  from  the 
brawny  giant's  sixty-pound  bow  blasts  an  un- 
swerving course  to  the  target,  but  he  will  gasp 
with  admiration  at  the  beautiful  arc  of  the 
lighter  bow's  shaft,  as  it  sails  smoothly  along 
snuggle  in  the  gold.  Each  bow  suits  the  own- 
er's  physique;    with     it    he     can   make   perfect 


scores.  .\  trained  athlete  finds  the  York,  or 
even  the  American,  round  a  real  effort.  To 
the  non-athletic  type  archery  is  a  God-send,  for 
he  can  go  at  it  as  hard  or  as  easily  as  he  likes — 
talk  or  run,  retrieve  his  own  arrows  or  not,  draw 
heavy  bows  or  light  ones. 

Everyday,  too,  is  perfect  for  archery;  even 
if  it  is  raining,  there  are  feathers  to  be  ground 
and  staves  to  be  sanded  for  that  "perfect  set." 
Even  when  a  boy  is  confined  to  the  house  or 
even  to  bed  by  those  hundred  and  one  diseases, 
he  manages  to  contract,  mother  will  find  that, 
far  from  being  a  nuisance,  he  will  be  com- 
pletely engrossed  if  he  has  his  archery  tackle  to 
make.  The  business  man,  too,  finds  this  craft 
and  sport  a  perfect  relaxation  after  a  strenuous 
day  of  work  and  worry.  If  you  like  company, 
then  you  shoot  with  the  gang.  If  you  prefer 
solitude,  you  can  always  strive  to  raise  your 
own  score  or,  better  still,  stalk  through  the 
woods  for  small  game.  Even  if  you  ever  be- 
come bored  with  target  shooting  of  the  dozen 
different  kinds  of  "rounds,"  you  can  try  mov- 
ing-target, clout,  wand,  butt,  or  Hight  shooting, 
field  shooting  at  various  distances  or  heights, 
roving,  archery  golf,  and,  of  course,  big  game 
hunting.  Yes,  we  hope  to  try  all  of  these 
eventually.

together.  Both  teams  played  their  hearts  out 
and,  when  the  dust  had  settled  after  the  battle, 
the  star-studded  line-up  of  the  Wellingtons 
were  victors  by  the  thin  margin  of  one  point. 
The  final  score  was   21-20. 

The  Wellingtons  were  equipped  with  some 
fine  players,  especially  the  backfield  of  Chap- 
man, Cyr,  O'Hearn,  MacDonald  and  Chiara- 
monte.  This  team  featured  an  exceptional 
blocking  type  of  play  which  bafTled  the  op- 
position time  after  time.  Those  who  made 
this  type  of  play  (X)ssible  were  Lawrence, 
Quesnelle,  Proudlove,  O'Connor,  Creig,  and 
Higgins.  Rounding  out  this  all-Star  aggrega- 
tion  were  De  Falco,   Cudmore   and   Anderson.
