The enrollment at St. Peters includes boys from forty towns in New Jersey. There was a time when the students at the Prep were from the immediate vicinity of the school, but the spread of its reputation and the increased facilities of railroad and bus trans­portation have brought more and more from greater and greater distances. The influence of St. Peter's is constantly broadening, and this to the credit of its present students and those that have gone before them. VERONA

DEDICATION

F TM. O U R hundred years is a long time for

a system of education to survive. Many educators of the past and even the present have nursed educational theories, placed them to thrive in the sun and wind and rain of the world, only to find, them dried up or blown away or drowned by the exacting demands of the times. Not so the Jesuit System of Education, now reaching through the dawn of its Fifth Century as bright and constant as the rising sun.

It is only fitting, therefore, that this book be dedicated to one of the members of that body of educators—a priest of the Society of Jesus.

Because we feel that he embodies the principles of Jesuit Education in a high degree, and because we have been the beneficiaries of his labor, justice, kindness, patience and charity—in a word, his Christlike treatment—

W E, THE GRADUATING CLASS OF ST. PETER’S,

DEDICATE THE 1 9 4 1 PETREAN

TO ONE WHOM W E W ILL LONG AND GRATEFULLY REMEMBER,

OUR PREFECT OF DISCIPLINE AND ATHLETICS,

AND OUR FRIEND—

Father Thomas P. Murray, S.J.

Into a Challenging Future at the Dawn of the Fifth Jesuit Century

REACHING the end of high school days, the Graduates of 1941 prepare to take up their young careers in the face of a world crisis. That crisis, which began in the moral area of human affairs, has inevitably spread through the social, political, and economic areas. The Classmen of 1941, on graduation day, go forward into a challenging future! They will find it harder than did their fathers to lead morally good lives in a world where the restraint of God’s law has been rejected — where the dignity of the individual has been lost with the forgotten Fatherhood of God. Perhaps they will rejoice if they are able to eke out even a modest living under a system which, because it denies the Brotherhood of Men, lacks the charitable wisdom to master unemployment. These boys may find inspiration, however, in the coincidence of their graduation with the dawn-year of the Fifth Jesuit Century. Four hundred and one years ago, Ignatius Loyola and the young men who formed the little Company of Jesus also faced a major crisis in Christian Civilization — the onset of the so-called reformation. In the plan of life which Ignatius fashioned under the very shadow of that crisis — the pattern to which were formed so many leaders, secular and religious — the Graduates of 1941 may find the way to happy and successful living.

T he Class o f 1941 w ill always cherish the memory o f their Jesuit teachers who have con­fidently pointed out, through a ll the confusing complexities o f modern life, the way that leads without deviation to the fee t o f the Son o f God.

LeadersO n e of the remarkable attributes of St. Ignatius Loyola was his genius for surrounding himself with brilliant, coura­geous, and saintly men. Rarely in history occurs so gifted a group as those first members of the Company of Jesus: Xavier, Bobadilla, Lainez, Rodriguez, Salmeron, and Faber. In a few short years, these men and their early companions carried the battle against heresy across the entire face of Europe. Before his death, Ignatius had attracted to the Society many others who were to become leaders or saints. The first two Jesuit Centuries saw such great names as Borgia, Canisius, Bellarmine, Campion, Suarez, Bourda- loue, de Brebeuf, Jogues, and many others. Throughout its history, the Society of Jesus attracted men who were exceptionally qualified as leaders in carrying on God’s work. So it is today. The Classmen of 1941 revere the Jesuits they have known as worthy successors to the Jesuit leaders of the past, and, in this spirit, present

RELIGIONTJELIGION is the foundation upon which is built

the edifice of a Jesuit Education. The world to­day with its surging paganism and godlessness is only too ready to hurl the waves of moral destruction upon a house built on the sands of free-thinking, self-grati­fication, and selfishness. Unless we are firmly cemented to the stones of Revelation, self-denial, and the obliga­tions of love and duty to God and man, how can we even dare hope to withstand the tide of the times? Without Religion the study of Literature, History, and Science becomes a devotion of the energies of mind and body to human and material valueis alone, rather than being, at the same time, a stimulation for the super­natural, a discovery in what we study of a faint reflec­tion of the Divine Model of all life, action, and knowl­edge. W ith Religion we never lose sight of God as our Creator, Christ as our Model, and ourselves as creatures with obligations.

Fr. Butler, S.J., conducts a class in Christian Doctrine.

LITERATURE- y p j A T w ill the study of L iterature do for a person?

This is a question very frequently asked in these days when matter, manifesting itself so eloquently in the clangor of material progress, is trying desperately to out-shout what it can never silence—the plea of the mind. No one w ill deny that the body must have its food, clothing, shelter. W hy deny the mind its needs of reflection, reasoning, information, enjoyment, appre­ciation, formation, perfection? Literature, we think, is one of the best means of giving us what we all desire a picture of life, a deeper knowledge and finer apprecia- |tion of what man is, what he has thought and desired, k

1what he has done. Latin, Greek, German, French, Eng- 3 lish satisfy that desire, and with that satisfaction comes the realization of proper values, deeper and richer liv­ing, refinement of manners, dignity of character, power of self-expression.

HISTORYTS THE study of History merely the reaping of a

harvest of useless information consisting of names, dates, and actions? If it is, then History has no place in the field of Jesuit education. History does not con­sist in mere description of the past, but in explanation of the past. Dates are helps, as names are, in this effort to understand the man of yesterday. We of today can­not isolate ourselves from the men of the past because we are vitally connected with them in the progress of human civilization and culture. We study History to know more about its chief actor, man—what he did, how he did it, when he did it, why he did it. History keeps us in touch with human thoughts, ideals, and accomplishments, and in that contact we see their social importance not only to the world and to the nation of yesterday, but also to the world and to the nation of today. History, too, gives us an understanding of the national life of which each of us is a part.

Mr. O'Brien, S.J., localizes the day’s History lesson.

SCIENCECIENCE holds a high place in the Jesuit system of

education. Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and ■ Physics are co-workers with Latin, Greek, English, ' French and German in the progression of studies that are intended to develop the faculties of the memory, the imagination, and the power of reasoning during the high school course. Besides this psychological value of developing human faculties, Science has the practical value of preparing us for any future lifework along scientific lines. From a cultural viewpoint, Science leads our minds through the wonder-world of the mystery of life in liv ing things, the magical mazes and marvels of nature’s chemical forces, and the amazing actions of matter’s endless energy. And just as Literature reveals the heart of humanity in its most exquisite and expres- i sive mood, so Science reveals the heart of the material universe, both the beautiful handiwork of God’s cre­ative power.

Forth from Jesuit Schools, Joining the Chivalry of Christ,

the Ranks of Youth EmergeAs OUR Graduates of 1941 go forth into

higher education and the responsibilities of adult life, they are joined by columns of graduates from many other Jesuit schools. It is a trained, formidable army of youth, but its allegiance is to a Kingdom that is not of this world. Its members are joined in serried, marching ranks in the Mystical Body of Christ. Those ranks are indestructible. They have marched endlessly, following their Leader, waging His wars, winning hard victories, earning the one reward that satisfies the heart of man. Individuals may fall by the way; but the ranks march on and will march on through all human crises, tragedies, and triumphs. This army does not join the children of the world in their despairing search for a godlike man; it has no part in isms, panaceas, or utopias. Its greatest objective and its deepest joy are loyalty to its divine Leader and the benison of His love. As St. Ignatius began the work, which has lasted four centuries, in the grotto of Manresa, alone; so, every Graduate of 1941, as a member of this prevailing spiritual army, knows his arena is the grotto of his own immortal soul. He knows that once he has attained, through grace, to an ardent love of the Son of God, "all these other things will be added.”

come Jesu it Graduates from a ll over America. They go their various ways in life, but their ranks are joined under the leadership o f the Son o f God. Starting in the dawn o f the Fifth Jesuit Century, they fa ce the future confidently.

YouthT h E future always belongs to youth; and youth is endowed with a charming, God-given enthusiasm for its heritage. Down the centuries, whether their dawn was brilliant with peace and promise or shrouded in threatening clouds and heavy gloom, the youth have always peered into the spreading light with brave, eager, searching eyes. The particular heritage of the Class of 1941 brings them face to face with a future menaced by forces alien to their tra­ditions and to their aspirations. For them, more than for most generations of youth, truly to live will be to contest and conquer. With a solemn though buoyant awareness of the rigors of the way that lies ahead, they whisper the prayer: "Lord, if Thou art with us, who can be against us?” They dedicate themselves to the leadership of the Son of God, and march forth resolutely into a disorderly, dis­consolate world. It is in the spirit of this dedication that they present

SENIOR COUNCILA MONG the keynotes of character are the ability to

select suitable representatives and the faculty of properly handling authority and responsibility. Here, at St. Peter’s the administration gives to its Senior Class the opportunity to exercise both of these functions. EachSenior Class elects three councilors who must be sodal- ARTHUR G. m a d d e nists and honor students. Upon their shoulders rests the Faculty Advisertask of providing leadership in the various activities of the Prep. How well they have fared is evidenced by the list of their achievements. From their first meeting their influence was felt in every activity.

In November, the Council acted as ushers at “Treasure Island”. They again volunteered their services for “The Strange Death of Cardinal Xavier”. Senior Night was a great success mainly through their efforts. In Febru­ary they arranged and sponsored a Senior Dance which was enjoyed by all present. As the P e t r e a n nears publi­cation they are laying plans for a prom to be held in June.

The Class of ’4 1 thanks the Senior Council for their endeavors which aided them no end in the fulfillment of their many obligations and undertakings during senior year.

THE SENIOR CLASS\W7ITH genuine reluctance the “Class of ’4 1 ” bids fare- " well to the Prep, for our years there have filled a

huge treasure-chest of memories to overflowing. Our recollection of a happy high school course, replete with pleasant associations, will be our constant companion on our journey through the years ahead. The sparkling humor which pervaded our daily routine, the steady flow of true. comradeship which exists among loyal Prepsters and the glimmer of those little sadnesses which have prepared us for worldly attacks, all these will light our future with the splendor of the summer sun.

Little did we suppose in 1937 when we first assembled that the humble title of “Frosh” could instill such pride in a fellow. But the tutelage of real men, and grand fel­lows all, combined with the inevitable result of Jesuit training, soon formed us real Prep men. We struggled with Algebra, fought the Roman wars and mastered phrases and clauses. Long afternoons of recreation in the school-yard provided the relaxation needed. We faced our first Province Examination and proved we had combined study arid play to the best advantage—we passed with flying colors.

Eager faces waited to greet their classmates as we con­vened for our second session. “Sophomores”, the magic word elated us. A choice between Greek and Science, resulting in the partitioning of classes, served to broaden our acquaintances and secure former friendships. At once we were plunged into the maelstrom of studies and before we realized it, midyear had passed, exams were over and we were in repetitions and May devotions. Once again the coming exams hung ominously over the school and the pace quickened until we cleared the hurdles and landed in Junior year.

The portals of the Senior Sanctum swung wide to re­ceive us and we advanced eagerly into our final year. Our haunt became the noisy Senior Room, whose friendly atmosphere more than compensated for the phy­sical inconvenience resulting from the “aromatic” to­baccos so popular among the “men”. For a long time we had been looking forward to this year and it was all we expected and more. In our classes the accumulated knowledge of preceding years served us well, for we were able to study the classics and appreciate the thought con­tained, we could read a modern language with compara­tive ease and work out a problem in a truly scientific manner. In the clubs and various sports we were the leaders bearing the responsibility and rejoicing the more in our accomplishments.

In this, our yearbook, we have attempted to make permanent our friendships and achievements at the Prep. We have covered the majority of them, but we cannot begin to recount the innumerable little instances which made each day different and enjoyable. These too, al­though not mentioned, are the treasure of the Class of ’4 1 which we hold in common to recall and relive when we think of the Prep.

HOWARD L. GELSTONOn the morning of June 10, 1938,

Howard Gelston passed his last scho­lastic examination with flying colors. On the evening of the same day How­ard passed with equal success, we feel sure, the great Final Examination of Life for which we are all preparing. Although it was God’s will that How­ard should complete only the Fresh­man Year with us we will always cherish fondly the recollection of his good nature, his fine Prep spirit and his earnest efforts for success in studies and athletics. On graduation night we know that Howard will be with us in spirit, still our classmate and friend.

Four years ago Father William J. Walter, S.J. came to the Prep to assume the joint duties of Prefect of Discipline and Director of Athletics. Even in as­suming the unpleasant task of maintain­ing discipline Father’s true, kind char­acter always shone through and one could hardly look upon him as a Prefect, but rather esteemed him as a guide and friend. Through his expert guidance the athletic program at the Prep took great strides forward, with each student taking his place in one of the various branches. Six-Man-Football was Father’s plan to offer football to all the students. And so as time went on, this enterprising priest found a deeper spot in the heart of every Prepster.

Fr. W alter in his office at St. Peter’s.

John Burke presents the Mass kit.

Early this year a call went out for chaplains to serve the increased personnel of the army. Naturally Father Walter was one of the first to volunteer, for he was always ready to go wherever the quest for souls might direct him. As a Jesuit priest he had always been a true soldier of Christ. Now he was to become a soldier of his country as well. When it became known that Father was to leave us Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen voluntarily collected money for a parting gift. Nothing could be more suitable than a Mass-kit for use at camp. It was a sorrowful moment when Father spoke a few parting words and gave us his blessing. But it is a great consolation to know that the men at Camp McClellan have this ideal priest to guide and befriend them.

"M/TY NAME isn’t important. In fact, I have no name.You see I’m the spirit of the Class of ’42. Although

I came into being in September 1938, I am now for the first time committing myself to writing.

The Class of ’42 inaugurated this past year with the cry, “Gosh, next year we’ll be Seniors”. The dreams of ambition, the hopes of youth, how they crumble before Cicero, Euclid and Shakespeare! After the blood spilt in the Mid-year and Province Examinations has been scrubbed away, there remains a group of serious-coun- tenanced boys, who alternately gasp and exult. These are the survivors.

To prevent useless reminiscences and unprofitable Worries, let us turn to the more enjoyable activities of the Junior Class, which I assure you are many and varied.

Gaze with me into the dim, distant past. As the mists slowly clear before our discerning eyes, look. Look hard! There in the chapel you can see Juniors as Knights of the Blessed Sacrament reverently assisting at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and receiving Holy Communion. Then later they gather to pay homage to the Blessed Vir­gin Mary in the number of her devoted Sodalists.

THE JUNIOR CLASS

The scene abruptly changes to a crisp, chilly Saturday morning in October. The strains of “Our Pride and Our Glory” fill a huge stadium, as those same Juniors stand at attention. Then, with a roll of drums, the Prep foot­ball team comes charging out. At once these Juniors be­gin to cheer their respective heads off for their classmates, Buckley, Burde, Croasdale and Curran, Eagen, Keegan, Hartnett and Heck, McGovern, Monprode, Noll and O’Neil, Roero, Sullivan, Wishbow and Woods. For they admire courage and determination, especially when shown in their classmates.

The football season fades and you can see the crowded I school auditorium. There again, with thundering ap- I plause, they register their approval of the Dramatic Club’s presentation, “Treasure Island”, and particularly of the ability shown by their classmates, Curtin, Leavy j and Rose.

We swiftly pass over December, the long Christmas I holiday, repetition, the Mid-year exams, and come to a j day in late January. The scene is the Collins Gym, and I the Juniors spiritedly encourage Ullman and Woods of I | the Varsity Basketball team and Edwards, Hill, McCann, I McCarthy, McGowan, Meyer and Wilson of the “J ay- I vees”.

Time has slipped by, the days are becoming longer and Spring is in the air. Look and you will see a huge athletic field. It seems a track meet is in progress. And they are there too, gazing intently as the Prep team goes through its paces. They cheer mightily for those runners —Bardel, Curtin, Deering and Henry, Fitzpatrick, Keller, Morgan and Sutton. Look over there! It is a tennis court and a match is going on. Juniors, as all Prepsters, are justly proud of their tennis team and they shout lustily whenever Carroll, Fitzpatrick, Nevin or Waldron take the court.

Coming back to the Prep, we see them engaging in many interesting pastimes. In the debating hall a lively debate is beine: conducted, while a number of chess games are under way in the library. The photographic addicts are up in the dark room, developing, printing and enlarging.

The last scene begins to fade, details are becoming in­distinct, faces are blurred, and the mists once more gather together as the past slips back,—back into the abyss of time.

I am now taking a deep breath, and looking toward tomorrow. I wonder what it has in store for the class of ’42.

SOPHOMORE CLASSrj^HE scene is a second year classroom at the Prep. It I

is a sunny day in early June. A sophomore, seated I at his desk, carefully lays down his pen, having finished I his final examination. He draws a long, deep breath. A I satisfied smile crosses his face, as he realizes that he has I at last completed his second year. He closes his eyes and I begins to review that marvelous year.

Imagine, if you are able, some strange and wonderful 1 machine, with which you can probe into this boy’s very I consciousness and view with him the cavalcade of events. I The figures are at first indistinct, but they gradually I come into focus. There is the schoolyard, bustling with I activity, and there is our friend busily renewing friend- I ships as he begins his first day as a sophomore. In rapid I succession, a business-like class room, the quiet library, I the solemn debating hall, the boisterous cafeteria, all I flash on the screen. In the chapel we see our friend with I his buddies attending a meeting of the Sodality, and I again, visiting the Communion rail as a Knight of the I Blessed Sacrament.

Suddenly our eyes are dazzled by a bright autumn sun, and our ears are deafened by the thunder of the Prep band mingled with the roar of the Prep rooters. We find ourselves watching a gallant Prep football team play its heart out. Packing the stands are Sophomores, lending the team as much moral and vocal support as their lungs permit. Out on the field, keenly appreciating their classmates’ active interest, are Bannon, and De Turro, Judge, Maloney and Welter, while Amrien, Kane, and Livey, McGowan, Price and Spellman play in the band.

Another abrupt change, and we see our friend sitting in the overflow crowd at the school auditorium, enthusi­astically receiving the Dramatic Club’s triumphant pre­sentation, “Treasure Island”. Then it fades and in its place the Collins Gym appears. A furious basketball game is being waged. Ray Maloney and Jack Welter are the Sophomores on the team. Doherty and Lieve, Lynch, McGovern and Franny Maloney, all on the Jayvees, pa­tiently watch the game, hoping for their chance on the varsity next year.

Then in rapid flashes we see the Sophomore in jug, bemoaning his fate; we see him at the baseball park, thoroughly enjoying himself as the team scores another victory, Lynch and the Maloney brothers helping along; we see him in a serious mood, as he attends a meeting of the Camera Club; and finally we see him having the time of his life on the annual outing. Without warning our screen goes blank, as our Sophomore friend jumps with a start back to reality and begins to worry whether or not he’ll pass the exam he has just taken.

FRESHMAN CLASST AST September, the “Prep” was just a school about

which we had heard a great deal from friends and elder brothers. At the time, we thought we were big for we had just graduated from grammar school, but now we know we were very small—that is, compared with what we are now. We are the Class of St. Peter’s ’44.

We like to look back on those first days at the Prep. That first week passed all too quickly and before we knew it the retreat was over, the outing to Keyser Island was a wonderful day that we hoped would come every year and we were approaching the school in buses now literally overflowing with smiling boys. The upperclass­men were strangers that first morning and for some time afterwards, but soon they came to know us and we be­gan to feel the bond that existed between us. It was the “Prep”.

The months flew by and at the end of each we had the “reckoning”. Reading of Marks was a very enjoyable procedure for most of us, since it was the occasion to receive public commendation for our success in the studies which we had engaged. Latin and Algebra really made us think, but with teachers sympathetic towards our limitations and unselfishly interested in our advance­ment we progressed wonderfully. Now we are pointing to the June examinations to show what the Class of ’44 can do.

Look over the extra-curricular activities of the past year and you will find the class participating in all of them; working in the Sodality, filling leading roles in the dramatic presentations, having its own de­bating team and a basketball team with a record equal to that of the varsity. We can mention no more, but advise you to watch the Class of ’44. We are aiming high and have the will to accomplish.

St. Ignatius Loyola Met a Challenging Future

with Prayer, Discipline, LoveS t . IGNATIUS LOYOLA, through his early maturity,

had been a man of the world. He had been numbered among the noble­men of a frivolous royal court. As a soldier, he had seen the license and misery of camp and campaign. He knew the spirit of the world through revealing contact with it. Thus, he was well qualified to guide those who, like our Graduates of 1941, though living in the world, would rise above its standards. It is significant that Ignatius, once he had decided to enlist in the service of the Kingdom of God, first strove to establish the supremacy of God in his own personality. So, long before he sought to influence others, Ignatius took up the arduous, prayerful work of forming his character after the model of Jesus Christ. He aspired to challenge the spirit of the world only after years of self-discipline, aided by grace, had set his heart aflame with personal love for the Son of God. That work, that discipline, that love, crystallized into "The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius,” became a master-plan by which hundreds of thousands of Jesuits shaped their lives for sanctity and leadership, and a chart by which un­numbered others found their way through the anxieties, trials, and crises of this world to the peace which surpasses understanding.

T he shot which felled Ignatius Loyola at the defense o f Pamplona was the instrument o f God, changing a cavalier to a saint, g iv in g to the youth o f every land one o f the most dynamic personalities o f a ll history as exemplar and guide.

Equipment

H i g h school days have been a splendid training ground for the Graduates of 1941 who, at the same time, face adult­hood and a changing world. They have received the best in preparatory education, not only measuring up to the stand­

ards of the leading educational associations, but skillfully de­signed to train both the intellect and the will. In addition, they have had the opportunity to develop worthwhile lei­sure-time interests, to mingle with graciousness and ease among their fellow men, and to make practical application of the arts of speaking and writing. Most important, through their work in the Sodality and their attendance at Holy Mass and the Sacraments, they are well started on the task of molding their characters to the divine Ideal. It is with deep appreciation of these advantages that the Class of 1941 presents its

DEBATEAT THE initial meeting of the Senior Debating Club

last November some thirty-five students of third and fourth year were enrolled. The following meetings were devoted to debates on topics of everyday interest.After the mid-year examinations tryouts were held for the interscholastic debating teams and twelve men were selected. On March eleventh six of the debaters enter­tained the members of the Democratic Club of North Bergen with a debate on Western Hemisphere Defense.We also debated Regis High School on the same topic.A debate with Brooklyn Prep was held on April twenty- sixth. The society maintains a speaker’s bureau, the members of which visited various parishes to present the Catholic contribution to a solution of the labor problem.

Junior debating teams have well represented the Prep in contests with St. Anastasia of Teaneck, Brooklyn,Regis and St. Benedict’s of Newark. These teams, made up of members of the freshman class, ably discussed both sides of the question of socialized medicine.

The society looks forward to continuing the work so successfully undertaken in providing young men withthe ability to address an audience fluently, clearly and "courageously, an asset in all fields of endeavor but par­ticularly in that of Catholic Action.

SENIOR SODALITY

Blessed V irgin ’s statue in the

Students’ Chapel

Every Monday afternoon the Seniors and Juniors of the Prep gather to honor Mary, God’s Mother and Our Mother. Here under the able direction of Fr. Butler we find Catholic Action at its best, with every sodalist learning to shield Mary from the slanderous blows aimed at her and her Divine Son. At this weekly meeting we receive the weapon of Catholic literature so necessary in the daily battle against Communism and other radical groups. Thus we are fortified to weather the torrents of error and disbelief which flood the world today.

The Sodalists are constantly reminded of the twofold duty incumbent upon them. Before all, they must sanctify themselves by increased devotion to Mary and grow in a greater likeness of her Son. Then there must be a burning desire to spread His Kingdom upon earth. To the fulfillment of this exalted vocation, the Sodality directs all its activity.

Chief among the sodality’s countless efforts in the cause of Catholic action are its baskets of happiness brought to the hospital wards at Christmas, its Mission Raffle which helps maintain those needy outposts of Christianity, and its marvelous spiritual unity in remembering the intentions of all Sodalists.

Probably the most important work of the Sodality has been the teaching of Catechism to the youngsters of neighboring parishes. It is a work most dear to the heart of Our Holy Father in these days especially, when youth is being so zealously sought after by the powers of evil. And therefore our catechists have considered it a privilege to do our little share in this most apostolic labor. It has been difficult at times. Young boys of eight or nine can be very lively. They can be inattentive and insubordinate. They can even be unintelligent. But the inspiration of the work far more than made up for this.

We, the graduating members of the Sodal­ity, will sorely miss these weekly meetings but by now the principles of living “Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam” have been indeliby imprinted on our minds. In the past four years the spark of devotion has been en­kindled in our souls. May we fan 'it to a bright flame which in later life may guide our own footsteps and shed its warmth as a force for good on all those about us. The Sodality has given us a start in the work of the lay apostolate. It is up to each one of us, in his own way, to continue that work and one day be worthy of an apostle’s reward.

JUNIOR SODALITYCpHE Junior Sodality began the scholastic year with

a tribute to Our Lady, by joining the Senior Group in sponsoring a Rosary drive for October. Each sodalist promised to recite the beads daily during the month, and many arranged to have their families say the Rosary in common.

The weekly hospital visits began with the first meet­ing and reached their climax in the annual Christmas visit. Each class made its donation and Christmas gifts were bought for over two hundred ward patients. The officers and consul tors of both sodalities, working in rec­ord time, wrapped the gifts in brightly-colored paper. Mr. Grady, S.J., in the meantime prepared a choir of twelve to sing carols along the hospital corridors and in the wards. The choir and the small gifts made a deep impression on all. The stamp group was also active, faithfully sorting a large quantity of stamps to be sold for the benefit of the Jesuit missions in the Philippines.

The weekly sermons kept before our eyes the funda­mental truths of our religion and the Catholic devo­tions, particularly those to Our Lady, which should te a part of every sodalist’s life.Sodalists Egan, T urro and Fanning

INSIGNES CLUBTNSIGNES is the plural form of insignis, a word taken

from the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius and means one who is outstanding in personal devotion and loyalty to Christ, our King. The aim of the Insignes Club is therefore to cultivate in its members personal devotion to Christ the King, in the Blessed Sacrament, and through this devotion to make its members enthusiastic leaders in furthering His cause. This aim is to be attained by fre­quent reception of the Holy Eucharist, by daily visits to the Blessed Sacrament and by the avoidance of all serious sin. Furthermore through the wholeheartedness of their devotion to Christ, the members look to Him for very definite help and guidance in discovering the way of life that He wishes for each one of them.

Membership in the club is for those who wish to bevigorous followers of the Kins; and who are determined to ° . . . Sacred Heart Statuegive Him a full and manly service. A certain honor is con- The students’ Chapelferred upon one by membership, yet realization of this honor must bring humility, as well as gratitude that the individual member has an opportunity to prove his devo­tion to Our Lord in a Man’s way.

THE PREP ACTORS

Present

“TREASURE ISLAND”

rjiRADITION requires that at least once in each year the thespians of St. Peter’s

Prep don the mask and buskin. This tradition was not only observed, but honored in a series of performances of “Treasure Island”. The success of the talented cast was inevitable. Did it not enjoy the skilled, polished and withal intense dramatic training of the distinquished actor and coach, Mr. Marr? Coupled with this distinguished advantage was the inspira­tion derived from the appeals to school spirit delivered during intermissions by Mr. Thomas M. Harvey, S.J., and the awe consequent upon his threats of dire boding for those who missed rehearsals.

Here was the result of six weeks of careful and critical direction by the master, and six weeks of sincere and attentive effort by the students. Whose is the glory of this achieve­ment? The cast collectively and severally. Jim Hawkins, as portrayed by Joseph P. Curtin and Patrick J. McGann, was superb. John J. Gilligan, ’41, was an excellent Mrs. Hawkins from coiffure to sandal top and toe. Gordon H. Loud, ’41, gave a Dr. Livesey who was at all times the cool dispassionate diagnostician with all the offended dignity of an irate magis­trate. Squire Trefawney, a dignified, confiding and too self-reliant adventurer, was a truly superb portrayal by John Leavy, ’42.

Long John Silver and his pirates look over the treasure map.

John M. Grabler, ’41, was a Black Dog with a ready growl and a passion for piracy. Richard D. Donoghue, ’41, Pew the Blind Man, was truly a pirate while substituting dissimilation for brute force. Billy Bones, a pirate playing the lone hand in the search for hidden treasure, with a pirate’s taste for rum and a flare for a dead man’s chest, was depicted with full abandon by Daniel F. Burns, ’41. William F. Rose, ’42, as Captain Smollet gave a performance that had in it the tang of the sea. John Curtin, ’42, as Long John Silver, was as real and terrible a pirate as ever murdered, or scuttled a ship. William P. Dolan, ’41, as Ben Gun, the derelict of Treasure Island, was superb in both action and voice with the touch of the comedian that blended perfectly into the characterization.

The supporting cast which gave fullness and finish to the per­formance was composed of Loyal Sailors: John J. Tymon, ’41, E. Jacques Downing, ’41, and Clifford P. Quinn, ’41. The pirate crew consisted of Raymond Delfino, Finian C. Greene, Francis X. McEntee and John J. Walsh of senior year, Francis X. Dennehy, Clifford J. Turley and James F. Young of the Sopho­more year, and Frederick F. Flach of Freshman.

The scenery, which was artistic perfection in scope and detail and the stage effects of light and sound, were the work of Brother Burke, S.J. and his able assistants. To them our grate­ful acknowledgment and sincere thanks.

“THE STRANGE DEATHOF

CARDINAL XAVIER”

FRIDAY, March s i , and Sunday March 23, the thespians at the Prep joyous over the gratifying response to “Treasure Island” presented “The

Strange Death of Cardinal Xavier.” This play, written by John M. Frances, S.J. and Michael P. Kammer, S.J., was particularly appropriate for Lenten entertain­ment.

Leo T. Stapleton, as Francis Xavier, was excellent and showed his remarkableversatility in the drastic change from the Vagabond of “The Tavern” to thisportrayal of the great patron of the missions. W illiam P. Dolan, ’41, played thepart of Ignatius of Loyola and demonstrated that he too could shift from onecharacter to another with ease and ability. W illiam J. McGovern, ’41, made hisfirst appearance in Prep dramatics and justly merited long applause on his por-

Leo Stapleton in , • , Jthe leading role as trayal of Peter Faber. The other leading roles were taken by Daniel F. Burns, ’41,

as Xavier’s secretary; Harold S. Ford, ’41, in the part of Simon Rodriguez andGordon W. Loud, ’41, as the aged Master Pena.

FRENCH CLUB/"WNCE a week throughout the second semester the French

Club met under the able direction of Mr. Paone, S.J. Here Mr. Paone, with the assistance of Bernard Champon of fourth year, endeavored to supply that knowledge and appreciation of the French language which time would not permit us to obtain in class. Through conversation in French, reading contemporary French periodicals and listening to one of our members speak in his native tongue, we gradually acquired what Mr. Paone terms a “French ear”, that is to say we were able to understand spoken French. Beyond this mastery of the language itself we devoted a good portion of our time to the appreciation of French culture and characteristics. Through this study we have learned how much our own culture depends upon that of France. We have profited greatly by these weekly meetings and are now able to comprehend the immortal words of Thomas Jefferson; “Every man has two countries, his own and France”.

Associate Editors Robert DeBaun and John Carroll with the assistance of Business Manager Thomas Gallagher present their plans for the 1941 P e t r e a n .

THE 1941 PETREAN“I7VR.OM the day the Moderator of the P e t r e a n , Mr. McGinty, S.J., first assembled

the staff and explained the functions of their offices to the inexperienced members, the yearbook office has been the scene of many long and strenuous hours of labor. By the Moderator’s painstaking and self-sacrificing example the staff was soon roused to a fever pitch which carried our plans along right on schedule. The patience and perseverance of editors John Carroll and Bob De­Baun, the untiring efforts of Business Manager Tom Gallagher, aided by the gen­erous cooperation of the rest of the Staff, made the burdens seem lighter, brought the goal ever nearer, and in every way assured the success of our yearbook.

But ours was no simple task, nevertheless. From October to May the office was seldom empty. First a “dummy” was assiduously prepared, then torn apart and rearranged till the original was hardly recognizable.Copy poured in, to be edited and re-edited, “cut” and “mangled”. Lists were checked and rechecked. “Brain-Ostorms” were brought forth, considered and very often abandoned. The Business Staff spent long and weary afternoons soliciting ads. Even the Easter Holidays found the office a center of activity as last-minute copy came in and the deadly proof-reading began. But through it all we had a single purpose, that this year­book, our yearbook, might reflect the sentiments and expectations of the Senior Class.

Now as the book is ready to go to press, our satisfac­tion is not unmixed with sorrow that it is all over. For it has been a happy year after all, filled with pleasant associations, hearty laughs and the satisfaction that comes from a job well done. The friendships we have formed in the P e t r e a n office are lasting ones, and the lessons we have learned there will stand by us all our lives. Yes, the time we spent on the yearbook will always stand out as a pleasant highlight in our course at St.Peter’s.

To any we may have slighted in this book, our sincere regrets; to all who have helped us, go our heartfelt thanks; and to next year’s staff, our best wishes for all the success and enjoyment we have found.

ITHE PREP LIBRARY I

TT IS the boast of the Prep Library that the shelves are usually only half filled.This in spite of the fact that we have books in great quantity on almost

every conceivable subject and that new ones are constantly being added. Prep- sters study, read or just browse in the comfortable atmosphere of this hall of learning, supervised by the Librarian, Mr. Johnston. An attractive and very instructive feature of the library is the display program arranged by the Librarian.During the year there have been many of these displays, but by far the most interesting was that on printing and engraving. In arranging these attractions and checking the withdrawals and returns, the librarian was assisted by the library staff composed of students.

BAND

IT WAS an afternoon in early September that Mr.Flynn, S.J., made the first call for candidates for the

Prep Band. The rehearsal immediately following com­menced as a weird bedlam of noises but which in time was reduced to an off-key version of “Our Pride and Our Glory”. But that was the first practice. By dint of labor and much patience on the part of the instructor, Mr.Walters, the Prep musicians developed rapidly and by the beginning of the football season were one of the finest units in the city.

Throughout the whole football season the band was the team’s most ardent rooter, playing its very best on MR. WALTERevery occasion and each member cheering his loudest Instructorwhen the instruments were laid aside. Again this year the band presented its annual radio concert and made a fine impression on all listeners by their rendition of the Prep songs. At all four performances of the play,“Treasure Island”, the Prep band was in the pit enter­taining the guests between the acts. After the last cur­tain call the members regretfully put aside their uniforms until another year.

CAMERA CLUB

At the beginning of the school year Mr. McCarthy, S.}. organized the Prep Camera Club to stimulate interest in photography. The enthusiasm of the Prep boys in such a club was clearly manifested by the large atterr- dance at the first meeting. At the weekly sessions there­after the members were instructed in the fundamentals of photography, developing, enlarging and printing. In his demonstrations Mr. McCarthy was assisted by the officers who, having wide experience in photography, were able to give interesting lectures on the various techniques.

CHESS CLUB

Last year, our moderator looked over some very prom­ising talent and remarked, “Watch our smoke in 1941”. How'true! At the present writing the Prep Chess team has captured the city title and has beaten Regis, Dickin­son and the St. Peter’s College Freshmen in addition to twice defeating the defending county champions, Lin­coln.

Most of the credit must go to our astute captain, William Barber, ’42, and to Joseph Boyle, also ’42, the man in the Number One spot. Between them, these young wizards of the chess board have taken twelve games. Not far behind come Matthew Reilly, ’43, with a record for drawn games and Albert Molano, ’43, with his irregular openings and surprising endings. Francis Fellmer, ’43, John Conniff, ’42, and Casimer Rojeski, ’41, also attained splendid records. The last named is the only one we lose through graduation, so the prospects for next year are even better.

But the Chess Club is equally a hobby club, a very sociable gathering, where enthusiastic beginners study the intricate maneuvers of the various systems of play, for they realize that chess fascinates the mind as well at seventeen as at seventy.

The Graduates of 1941 Are Lineal Inheritors of

The Master-Plan of St. IgnatiusF o r four years, the Graduates of 1941 have

enjoyed the privilege of daily contact with the way of life St. Ignatius charted. The prospect is that they will find in this master-plan a degree of wisdom and practicality of which even yet they have not dreamed. It is possible that, before they have gone far, they may be impelled by the very realities of living to choose one or the other of these two paths: The path o f self-discipline and union with Our Lord, which leads to realization of the love that makes all burdens light; or, The path o f fevered striving, down which the children of the world surge, seeking "a lasting city” built by man. The necessity of such choice seems to be asserting itself with ever greater urgency. In Belgium, in France, across Europe, thousands of Catholic youths went through the full downward spiral of the search for hope and security in the rational, the earthly. Only in the extremity of almost utter personal defeat did they plumb the depth of the words: "I am the Vine; you are the branches” — and there find new hope, new courage, a new life. Our Country, our youth, have yet to near the end of the descending spiral. There is hope that the descent may be arrested. Some of the seeds of that hope are Jesuit foundations, planted all over America.

InspirationI n * 'The Spiritual Exercises o f St. Ignatius,” the founder o f

the Society o f Jesus attaches importance to the joy that

comes to those who through self-mastery and grace have

attained to sincere love o f God. He speaks o f how their

every act, far though it may seem from formal worship,

comes to have a real spiritual significance and value.

Similarly, under the direction o f their Jesuit teachers, the

Graduates o f 1941 discovered that even their sports could

be made an important part o f their training for life. So,

without enjoying it the less, they played with a purpose.

On the gridiron, the court, and the diamond, they drilled

themselves in endurance, courage, skill, co-operation, and

leadership. The inspiration o f loyalty to their school called

forth their finest efforts and gained them many a victory.

All this is treasure stored up for the future. It is with these

VARSITY FOOTBALLWhile Prep’s 1940 football season certainly

will not go down in the record books as a suc­cess with regard to the won and lost columns, no one can deny the undying spirit and clean sportsmanship which the team displayed. To win only one game in eight is not enviable, but a swing of one touchdown to the Prep side would have brought six more victories. Hard luck haunted the team throughout, with in­juries, fumbles and inexperience all having a hand in the final count.

The team got a jump on their rivals when they journeyed to Camp Notre Dame, Lake Spofford, New Hampshire, for its pre-season training. Up at camp, the squad met Tim Stapleton from George Washington Univer­sity who replaced John Canella as line coach.Prospects were bright as the Prep, after a short rest took up their chores at Montgomery An­nex. Wise heads, however, pointed to their inexperience and waited to be shown.

PREP’S STARTIN G TEAM On the line, left to right, McDonough, Elmiger, Croasdale, Lee, Treanor,

Gannon and Beaman. In the backfield, W olfe, Flynn, H artnett and W eller.

The opening game was played in the hot, dusty atmosphere of Mont­gomery Annex. Lincoln took the poor opening kick-off at mid-field and drove straight down the field to a quick touchdown. The Prep defense immediately stiffened and the rest of the half was waged back and forth across the mid-field stripe. Early in the fourth quarter Prep’s golden opportunity came. Jack Flynn snatched a fumble and galloped 53 yards down the side­line to Lincoln’s 29 yard marker. Two drives at the line netted four yards and an intercepted pass killed St. Peter’s only big scoring chance. Prep went home with some good, but hard gained, experience.

Final Score—Prep o, Lincoln 6

In the second game a badly out­weighed Prep team dropped a de­cision to Memorial of West New York. The big Memorial aggrega­tion, checked on the ground by a charging Petrean line was forced to adopt a passing attack. In the second period, two touchdowns be­hind, Prep came to life, marched straight down the field on five con­secutive first downs and scored on a pass from Buckley to Burke. Wolfe’s placement was blocked. Later Prep drove into enemy terri­tory but lost the ball on a fumble. Here Bill McDonough broke through to block Mirabelli’s kick and Bob Gannon pounced on it for a touchdown. Final Score- Prep 13, Memorial 28

Bill McDonough grabs a high pass.

Shaking off the lethargy of a three game losing streak, the Prep- sters gave the best exhibition of the season in trouncing Snyder High School 19-6. Late in the first period Jack Burke pulled down a Snyder pass and the Prep offense began to click. Johnny Welter’s short pass to Billy Woods resulted in a score. In the last period, Johnny Beaman pounced on a Snyder fumble and the Petreans struck quickly. The score was registered on Welter’s short plunge. A few minutes later Bob Gannon blocked a punt on the 25 yard line and Walter Lee scooped it up and scampered over for another score. Wolfe’s accurate placement added the extra point.

Final score—Prep 19, Snyder 6

Prep’s third encounter was with Emerson High School of Union City and again the Petreans met de­feat. Suffering a let-down from the previous week’s bruising battle, the team spent the entire first half staving off Emerson’s offense, and the first two periods were scoreless. Early in the third period, the Blue­bells put across a touchdown. Then the Prep offense came to life and, aided by the fine blocking of Joe Croasdale and Dick Blum, made two long drives but couldn’t quite find the spark to score. In the last minutes of play, Wally Wolfe caught a pass and was in the clear. The Emerson safety, however, caught him.

Final Score—Prep o, Emerson 6

Joe Buckley gains around in the Union Hill game.

In the fifth game of the season Prep encountered Union Hill. In this game the Maroon and White again met the old nemesis—a 6-0 defeat. Prep completely took the p l a y away from Union Hill throughout the first half and yet did not have the punch to score. Starting from their own 25 yard line, the Petreans smoothly worked the ball on four consecutive first downs to the opposition’s 7 yard line, Burke and Buckley carrying the ball. Here the attack, which counted much on Heck’s pass re­ceiving, stalled and Union Hill took the ball on the four yard line. Discouraged, the Petreans failed to show anything after that and offered feeble resistance as Union Hill drove down the field to score in the third period. The remainder of the game was a series of short advances made by both teams but never was there any sustained drive. Alex Arasimowicz, Joe Croasdale and Bill McDonough were the out­standing players for the Prep. Final Score—Prep o, Union Hill 6

On Election Day the Prep played a neighboring Jesuit school from across the river, Xavier Military Academy. This was a well played and exciting tussle throughout. The speedy Xavier team got the jump on the Prep and started a march down the field. A series of line bucks, a pass and Xavier was in scoring position. With the score 6-0 against them, the Prep fought back bitterly and after an exchange of punts moved up the field for three first downs. At mid-field the drive was momentarily halted, then Bob Monprode shot a seventeen yard pass to Bill McDonough who, outracing his pursuers, scampered thirty-three yards for a touchdown. Xavier came back and scored on a sensational sixty-two yard run early in the third period. Still fighting the Prep spent the rest of the sec­ond half pushing the opposition down the field but in every case just missing a score. The game ended with Prep on Xavier’s eleven yard stripe.

Final Score—Prep 6, Xavier 12

Dick Blum and Bill Holleran help W ally W olfe make a sub­stantial gain against Xavier.

In its seventh game, St. Peter’s met the County Champions from Bayonne. B o lstered by some changes made by Coach Tommy Myers, the Petreans clearly out­played their rivals throughout the entire fray. Bayonne took the open­ing kickoff and returned the ball sensationally to the Prep 38 yard line before the runner was dragged down from behind. But the keyed- up Petrean line stopped the Garnet runners and aided by a fifteen yard penalty, drove them back thirty yards in three downs. Their kick was very poor, rolling out of bounds on the 12 yard line. Prep was in a position to score. Repeat­edly the Petreans drove at the line but Bayonne always held when it was necessary. In the second half, Bayonne started early and ad­vanced down the field by short gains to score over the hard-fighting Prep team. The Prep staged a counter attack and until the final whistle they kept banging away in the hope of that touchdown play.

Final Score—Prep o, Bayonne 6

Prep’s final game was played on Thanksgiving against its tradi­tional r i v a l , Dickinson High School. Eight thousand enthusiastic rooters witnessed this game. After a slow first period Prep got its big o p p o r t u n i t y when Dickinson fumbled in its own territory and Billy Woods recovered on the seven yard line. Johnny Welter dropped back and passed to Wally Wolfe on the 2 yard line who stumbled across for the score and later con­verted the extra point. Prep then clung tenaciously to its lead in a gallant defensive battle. Dickin­son scored in the second quarter but failed to convert and again the Prep was defending its slim lead, with Johnny Welter doing a superb kicking job. Late in the fourth period, the Hilltoppers passed their way to another touchdown and vic­tory.Final Score—Prep 7, Dickinson 12

Commenting on the season, the Jersey Journal had: “Tommy My­ers’ boys never failed to distinguish themselves, winning or losing in the same gracious manner.”

SIX MAN FOOTBALLA'NYONE who happened through Lincoln Park last

Fall came upon a large group of Prep Freshmen and Sophomores lugging the pigskin in great fashion. Attired in complete football equipment, playing a three man line and three man backfield, these future varsity war­riors gave an exhibition of running and passing as inter­esting as anything in a varsity game.

The experienced Mr. Duffy was head coach, super­vising instruction and directing the championships. He was ably assisted by Joe Halleron, the star of last year’s

MR. DUFFY Prep-Hilltop fracas, and Ed Buckley of Senior year whoDirector demonstrated technique and gave sterling example of

Prep sportsmanship. As Moderator, Mr. McCarthy, S.J.took a keen interest in each player and frequently acted as referee in the games.

The class championships were held after the Freshmen had been drilled in their plays and the Sophomores had built on their experience of the previous season. The honors of the Sophomore division went to 2-B, while i-D and i-E tied for the Freshman championship.

Mr. McCarthy, S.J. works out a play fo r the championship team of 2B.

THE burning ambition of every Prep basketball team

is to bring the Jesuit Tourna­ment trophy into its possession.Last year the present varsity sat on the bench and watched the trophy snatched from Prep’s hands in the final minutes of play.

Determined to avenge that de­feat, the Petreans vanquished Brooklyn Prep in the first round and advanced to the finals against Regis High School of New York. The two evenly matched quintets struggled fierce­ly through the whole first half,but Regis managed to pile up an Bil1 McDonougheight point lead before the inter­mission. By a stunning reversal of form, the Prep held a two point lead at the end of the third quarter. Amid the constant cheering of every rooter, the two teams fought on, there never be­ing more than two points be­tween them. With a few minutes to play the Prep shook loose Bill McDonough and Joe Coyle for lay-up shots that put the Prep ahead. A last minute Regis field goal was in vain for the final gun set the score definitely at Prep 30, Regis 29. May the trophy long remain in our possession.

Coach O’Brien

BASKETBALL

rriH E start of the 1940-41 season saw St. Peter’s with a new basketball coach, Mr. Tom O’Brien, who with a nucleus of six varsity players, looked forward

to building a strong combination—and the pre-season drills strengthened his convictions.

The opening game gave proof to his belief when, led by Joe Coyle and Jack Burke, Prep easily downed the Don Bosco squad from Ramsey. Working in the same fashion, the team overwhelmed Holy Family of Bayonne with a fifteen point margin. The alumni proved a tough nut to crack but the Maroon and White varsity pulled through victorious when in the closing minutes Bill Mc­Donough sank two successive lay-up shots to furnish a 29-26 defeat for the grad­uates. This contest served as a splendid warm-up session for the coming game with the potent Regis quintet who visited Jersey with an undefeated record. The two teams, destined to meet twice more, played perhaps the most exciting game of the season. Battling courageously, the first half found the Prep over­coming the height advantage of Regis and leading by a 13-6 score. However, in the next period Regis, setting up a zone defense, fought back to within four points of a tie with one quarter remaining. Scoring ceased until two quick bas­kets by Regis tied the score at 23 all with a minute to go. Then with twenty seconds left of play, a set-shot by Jack Alexander nestled in the cords for the winning two points. A1 Cereghino’s spot-shots brought him high scoring honors with eight points.

Two more were added to the winning column when Prep defeated St. Anne’s

Catholic Club in Buffalo and St. Mary’s High at Niagara Falls. But a defeat was also added and that at the hands of the tall and powerful Canisius College Freshmen. A week after the Prep’s return home, the team traveled to Montclair and there overwhelmed Immaculate Conception by the score of 30-23. Then mov­ing across the Hudson, the Petreans outfought a powerful Xavier High team by the low score of 25-19.

Local schools provided the competition in the next few games with the Prep easily overcoming St. Aloysius’ and St. Michael’s. In this pair of games Billy Woods and Danny Ullman turned in exceptionally good work. Prep then suffered its second defeat, this time on the narrow court of Regis. The ten point margin tells nothing of the spirited effort the Prep made in the final quar­ter. The Petreans bounced back into the winning column, coming from behind to down a stubborn Holy Trinity team from Brooklyn and then went on to their twelfth win of the season at the expense of St. Michael’s.

After copping the Jesuit Tournament the Petreans kept up the string of victories, taking Don Bosco, Immaculate Conception and St. Aloysius, with the second team “reindeers” playing the major portion of these contests.

All teams, it seems, must have at least one bad game and in this the Prep team was no exception. An inspired Holy Family team took the measure of the Prep in a 23 to 19 upset. It was a severe blow and would have disheartened many a team. But the Prep team proved its mettle in the game with the heavily favored Newark Academy. In this contest, the team played at its best, completely sub­duing the Newark boys in a final gesture of its power. Thus ended the 1940-41 season, a sterling page in Prep’s basketball story showing eighteen wins and three losses.

JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALLA T THE opening of the basketball season, Coach Jim McCabe found

himself with an unusually fine turnout of material. Strangely enough the sophomores soon dominated the first team positions and with the ex­ception of juniors Neil Edwards and Jack McCarthy, saw the most service. Most promising among the sophomores were Franny Maloney, Bill Lieve, Nick Pagnozzi, John Doherty, Joe Lynch, Vinnie Krasnica and Gene Ban- non. All of these playing fine ball made it difficult for their mentor to single out a starting five. Special praise must be given to Franny Maloney who proved the steady and competent playmaker throughout the season.

A wealth of opponents were encountered and though not conquering all, the team certainly produced a handsome record. In sixteen starts they suffered but two defeats.

We can honestly say that the Varsity coach may expect a group of seasoned competitors next year, for the Jayvees will see to this.

FRESHMAN BASKETBALLTHE Freshman Basketball team started inauspiciously, losing two games,

but ended in a burst of glory. The two losses were to Xavier High School Frosh and the Paul Revere Club. Barry, Cochran, Fritz, Walfe, Campbell, and Captain Bernhardt were the starters, while McKigney, Warlikowski, Cullinane, Wry, Dualsky, Buckley and Horgan formed a capable group of substitutes. The fine record of nineteen won and only two lost that the Frosh team achieved under the expert tutelage of Coach Myers augurs well for next year’s Junior Varsity and the Varsity as well.

BASEBALLOPRING is here at last and with it has come an abundance ^ of soaring horsehides and aching muscles, sure signs that the Prep has begun to play baseball with a vengeance. When the first call for practice was sounded two hundred eager hope­fuls responded and, as we go to press, after three weeks of strenuous labor Mr. McCabe has his squad picked and ready for competition.

Last year’s season was very successful as the Prep won fifteen games while losing only four. With the close of the season thePetreans were crowned champions of the city and at the same Bobr Gannon gets the man at home and

r ' . tries for another at third.time gained second place in the Hudson County standings. All the season’s statistics in, W ally Wolfe, our batter extraordinary, was unanimously awarded the third base spot on the All-State and All Metropolitan teams as a just tribute to his brilliant and versatile play.

Hopes are high for an even more impressive record this year as the Prep will field a team composed entirely of veteran ma­terial. In fact, the same team that won the title will again take the field. Joe Caulfield on first, Captain Bill McDonough at second, Joe Coyle at short, and Wally Wolfe on third form the infield. The battery situation is well taken care of by Bob Gan­non and Ray Maloney receiving the offerings of A1 Cereghino and Mike Connolly on the hill. Relief pitchers Joe Rafferty and Franny Maloney are the ever-ready firemen. Walt Lee, Johnny Rutkowski, Billy Woods and A1 Jacobson patrol the outer pastures.

TRACKAST year despite a slow start, the Prep track team ended its season

with a finish strong enough to take third place in the county cham­pionship meet. On the whole, it was an unlucky season with injuries and mishaps dogging the footsteps of the team continually. Phil McGovern, Joe Sweeny, Joe Halleron, Maurry Fitzpatrick, Nich Keller, Rene Bardel, all were at some time or other lost to the team through injuries. A typical example of the hard luck was Joe Sweeny’s breaking the county record for the half-mile, but beaten in the same race by a St. Michael’s man who walked off with the record honors. Likewise, George Jahn, after winning both the shotput and the discus throw, went home with the high-scorer trophy, only to be forced to return it when a check-up revealed a Bayonne freshman had beaten him by one point.

This season, however, began very auspiciously. The County Indoor Meet on March twelfth was really a preview of the team. Rene Bardel, Maurice Fitzpatrick and Charles Gilligan shone in the sprints, while Harry Murphy did likewise in the middle-distance runs. Although the Prep team lacks numbers, there is a great deal of quality that is apparent in the various meets throughout the season.

It has ever been the contention of the track coach that many of Prep’s finest runners never see a track uniform. To remedy this condition, an interclass track meet was held at the Montgomery Annex. Class 3-E won in the Junior division with 10 4̂ points, 2-E in the Sophomore with 8 points, and i-D took first honors in the Freshman events with its 9 points. A1 Francescon of Class i-D was the individual star among the Freshmen with his two firsts in the 50 and 220 yard races. He was also the lead-off man in the Frosh 880 relay which his class won.

TENNISr I ''HREE county championships in a row. That’s the proud boast of Prep’s

tennis forces. The 1940 squad, led by Captain Bill Sweeney, came through in magnificent fashion to gain the County Championship for the third consecutive year and retire the trophy. Their power was displayed in the fact that they lost but one dual match, which is exceptionally good for any outfit.

The present team, hit hard by graduation, is again the target of every team in the County. However, not too many tears are being shed and Coach Tom Egan’s boys are ready to give a good account of themselves. Jack Burke, number two man last year, capably steps into Sweeney’s shoes as Captain and number one man. George Nelson who gained some experi­ence last year is expected to take over the number two spot. Up from last year’s reserves are Bob Sillery, Jack Downing, Jim Orlando, Bob Kaltenbach, John Nevin and a few others who will fight ft out for the remaining berth. Although the prospects are not exceptionally cheerful, the team’s spirit is high and can be counted on to rank with the leaders, if not at the top, of this year’s title race which promises to be a wide open scramble.

ORDINANDIrpHE greatest glory of a Catholic school is to be found in its “ordinandi”, its

sons who have been lifted from the ranks of ordinary men and have by the sacred ceremony of ordination been vested with powers divine. It is to them that we dedicate these pages, to the former students and teachers of St. Peter’s who this year for the first time are to “go unto the altar of God”. Though we have never met many of them, we feel a strange kinship for them in that we are all sons of the Prep. We feel a satisfaction in the thought that where we are now, they once were, and where they are today, some of us may one day stand. We at St. Peter’s will not forget them on their ordination day, and may we not be forgotten by them as they offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

The enrollment at St. Peter's includes boys from forty towns in New Jersey. There was a time when the students at the Prep were from the immediate vicinity of the school, but the spread of its reputation and the increased facilities of railroad and bus trans­portation have brought more and more from greater and greater distances. The influence of St. Peter's is constantly broadening, and this to the credit of its present students and those that have gone before them.
