The first of these two affairs, the Junior Prom, is still over two months Editor off, but committees are already being selected and arrangements being made by the EDMUND L. BRUNINI, ’31 chairmen. So even at this early date it is not amiss to repeat several suggestions ERIK KJELLSTROM, ’30 JOSEPH O’REILLY, ’31 that were made last year, which suggestions resulted from the experience of Class ’30 JOHN HAZARD, ’31 RICHARD WILSON, ’31 in the management of its Junior Prom. This prom was probably the best attended of any given by a college class, and yet the profits turned over to the class treasury were WILLIAM SOISSON, ’32 proportionately insignificant. That affair is past history but each succeeding class BUSINESS STAFF should profit by the experience of the present Senior Class. Business Manager The following brief suggestions are reprinted from an editorial in THE HOYA of THOMAS J. MCGEARY, ’30 May 9 of this year: “1. No prom or tea-clance committee should consist of over six members. 2. Each prom or tea-dance chairman should be required to submit a detailed Circulation Manager report to the Student Council. This report should include the activity of every mem¬ THOMAS V. GRIFFIN, ’30 ber of the committee. In this way prom and tea-dance chairmen would be relieved Asst. Cir. Managers from the stigma of unwarranted suspicions, and the class as a whole would feel better satisfied.” No great amount of argumentation is necessary to prove that these JOHN FRAWLEY, ’31 JOSEPH HALPIN, ’31 suggestions, if adhered to, would protect not only the interests of the class, but the St ARTHUR SCHWARTZ, ’32 FRANK B.

He was found dead early last Friday morning, resting verv naturally on his bed, where he had evidently thrown himself due to exhaus¬ tion from a heart attack. It is thought that he had previously arisen rather early, as was his custom, but had found himself unequal to the task of saying Mass. On the chair beside him was found a recently published brochure on seismology, and underneath his pillow his glasses, indicating that up to the last moment he had devoted himself to the study that had absorbed so many of the best years of his career. It was agreed at the moment of the discovery of his body that he had died but a short time before, and as a consequence the last rites of the Church were immediately ad¬ ministered by the Rev. Arthur O'Leary, S.J., professor of Senior Philosophy at the College.
