TALBVICH Che Chem = ince its founding in 1839, the heart and center of all life at Loras col- lege has always been the college chapel. In the years which elapsed be- tween the building of the first crude chapel at what was then St. Raph- ael’s seminary and the construction in 1948 of the magnificent new Chapel of Christ the King, this heart of Loras has been found in many loca- tions. But the few students who made up the first class of the college and the seven hundred and fifty who are now enrolled, as well as all those who have attended in the intervening years, have always had in common the same Divine Inspiration and Guidance, derived from Him Who dwells within the sanctuary of all chapels, Christ the King. We feel that it is particularly appropriate, therefore, that the theme of this year’s Purgold be taken from the constant heart of Loras, the college chapel. When the Chapel of Christ the King was designed sev- eral years ago, no small amount of attention was paid to the topics to be portrayed by the stained glass windows. At length, it was decided to use scenes from the life of Christ which could be applied to the lives of students at Loras. Dominating the chapel, just as its subject dominates the lives of all Christians, is the huge window of the Rex Christus, seen on the opposite page. On either side of this window are the theology and poetry win- dows seen on the title page of this yzar's Purgold. Other windows of the chapel are used as division pages throughout the book, each hav- ing a theme apropos to the division it introduces. Finally, throughout the book will be seen small illustrations taken from the windows, which have application to the page on which they appear. There is an added note of symbolism in our selection of these win- dows as the theme for the 1952 Purgold. We feel that they in some measure represent the position of Loras and all other Catholic colleges as media through which the light of Christian knowledge can be trans- mitted to the dark, materialistic world surrounding them. The art work used in the book was executed by David G. Brom, a sophomore at Loras. The four color picture of the Rex Christus was prepared from a 4.x 5 Kodachrome transparency and the division pages and other illustrations are halftones made from pencil drawings by Brom.

The Student Senate shall coordinace the ac- tivities of student organizations under its juris- diction ard shall assist in direction when neces- sary.” Immediately after class elections in che fall the Student Eenate assembled for the first time and set to work on the pressing problem of Homecoming errangements. Every organization was assigned a prozect and a very successful Homecoming pro- gram was produced in spite of the early advent of old man winter. Student Senate mixers and movies were a high- light of the casual social events of the year and served to raise money as well as to entertain the student body. Behind the scenes the various officers and com- mittees of the Senate were ironing out schedules and dates for the functions of the different or- ganizations, smoothly working out those inevit- able problems of liason between the students and faculty, carefully guiding the school’s “foreign relations” with other schools and national or- ganizations such as the NFCCS, and unraveling = ¢ us interorganizational disputes. The advent of the second semester found a number of innovations being introduced into Senate procedure. A Freshman smoker, sponsored to arouse interest in class elections and_ class spirit, brought out a 70 per cent vote in that class’ elections. The Senate, by a constitutional change, provided for the elections of its officers in the spring to promote better continuity in the student government from year to year. A new procedure for completely controlling Senate finances through the business office was arranged and approved. A bulletin was published after each meeting to acquaint the student body with the activity of their student government. Arrangements were made to outline a complete social calendar with Clarke and Mercy for next year.

Thomas Finucan Junior Delegate—Bernard Kurtz Commission Chairman—Clement Burke, David Hynous, William Joffe, William Ambrose The past yecr was one of considerable progress for Loras co'lege as en active member of the National Federation of Catholic College Students. Since re- turning to active status in the Federation only last year, NFCCS has come to stand for a great deal more than a long title. The method of operation for NFCCS consists chiefly in the several national commisisons which are set up in almost every conceivable field of Catho- lic student interest, Student government, press, Mari- ology, liturgy, human relations, Catholic Action, etc. These commissions prepare yearly programs, and send out countless numbers of suggestions, program ideas, and activity schedules which are to be utilized by related campus groups.

The junior and senior delegates, plus the regional officers, have as their jobs the implementing of this complete national program, plus originating what- ever activities they feel can be of particular use to their campus. Here NFCCS serves as a sounding board and a meeting ground for the exchange of ideas between its hundreds of member colleges. Loras is a member of the Iowa region, with St. Ambrose, Clarke, Marycrest of Davenport, Mc. Mercy of Cedar Rapids, and Ottumwa Heights of Ottumwa. Regional projects included a Fall Con- gress at Davenport, the Press workshop at Mt. Mercy, and a Mariology study day here at Loras in Decem- ber. Clement Burke, of Loras, was regional chairman for the Mariology commission. Campus highlights of the NFCCS year were the third annual Charity Boxing bouts, which drew some 1100 people to the field house on April 22, and the Talent Show, which is yet to be presented at this writing, due to certain technical difficulties. Capping the year, Loras played host to delegates and observers from the entire region for che annual Spring congress, April 19-20. ‘2 2% PAR KEE AS tee A) He vi ‘o “ SMART RS 1 Ror Ammo 9s 53; S aie So PAROS pe aren sth pith tl Fr.

Mr. Vaughn Gayman, Band Director Someone once said that the Loras college band was one of the finest musical organizations in the Midwest. That statement would cause eyebrows to rise in some quarters. But be that as it may, one thing is sure, it wasn’t a band member who said so. All of which is one way of getting around to say- ing that the Loras band is not a pretentious, staid group. On the contrary, as an organization it prob- ably provides more real enjoyment for those who take Part in its activities than does any other group on the campus. Director Vaughn Gayman and his band are cele- brated for a unique mixture of hard work and real fun. Band practices combine serious rehearsal with portions of good natured ribbing and organized chaos. The uninitiated observer would hardly ex- pect much to result from such sessions. Here comes the band, left to right, first row: Director Vaughn Gayman, Ramsay, Henchel, Elbert, GU APren But the fact is that as a musical group, the band was a real credit this year as every other year. Their bright purple and gold uniforms were much in evi- dence throughout the year—the Homecoming pep rally, every home basketball game and all the home football games—they were always on hand for col- lege functions. Director Gayman as well as student director James Keefe and librarian Eugene Zimmer proved that they could take off on their own as well as provide background music for athletes, the band put on two fine concerts, at Christmas and again in the Spring, both of which packed the capacious field house to overflowing. Here again the band exemplified its thesis that music can be fun, with two ear-catching programs which ran the gamut from Tchaikowsky to the mambo, touching on jungle drums and John Philip Sousa in between.

Pictures here are the men responsible for these two aspects of the ‘’Spokeman’s’’ existance Gene Daniels, Dave Rock, and Bob Johnston. ; hoi Spokesman This is the literary quarterly of Loras college. Its main function is to print articles that are sub- mitted by the student body; making the stipulation that they have some literary worth to them. Most of the material is received through the auspices of the Short Story, Poetry and Essay Contests that are held annually. The Spokesman has been accustomed to printing the first three winners of each contest, plus supple- mentary material submitted to these various con- tests. In regard to the articles, of special interest were the three printed on St. Francis, St. Dominic and the Cure de Ars—The frist, third and fourth issues printed these works as special features of that par- ticular season, A tribute to Monsignor Their was written for the Winter Issue. The staff this year decided to publish an en- tirely different type of Spokesman; they reduced the size, changed the contour of the paper, included etchings and made many other favorable changes that has assisted in making the Spokesman, a maga- zine of some popularity!

Left to right, Wayne Welch, Ray Herrman, Dave Zaehringer, Dan Flynn, Ed Krolak and Charles Monckton. After opening with a shaky start, the Lorian, the Loras college bi-weekly newspaper, slowly developed into a sound and well balanced newspaper. In reality it was a new experiment for the staff of the Lorian. With only a handful of students at the start of the scholastic year with any journalistic experience, it was necessary to make the Lorian sort of a proving ground for the students so that they could learn the facts of newspaperdom and to be properly educated in the field of journalism which in turn netted them with a two-fold result. First, the students received a guided education under a new plan which brought John R. Talevich to the Loras campus as publicity director and instruc- tor of journalism. Under the direction of Mr. Tale- vich, the students received their first formal training in preparation for their journalistic futures. Secondly, ulvorsen, Zusy and Welch get together with the printer. the marked improvement in the education of the students coincided with a better newspaper for Loras college. The Lorian expanded in both quantity and quality during the past year. The paper went to eight columns mid-way during the year after starting as a seven column paper. The typography of the Lorian was changed to give it a new look for easier reader- ship. The feature page was vastly improved and the Lorian took a step forward in its editorial depart: ment. A small staff was greatly handicapped by its size but not in desire as they overcame their disadvantages to get the news of Loras to the students. A reshuf fling in the editorial department impaired progress on the staff during the first semester. Bob MckKillip, editor- in-chief, at the opening of the school year, resigned his position in November thus necessitating a new editorial staff. The college class of journalism took over the editorial chores for the remainder of the year. Jim Zusy, formerly news editor, moved into the top position, while Wayne Welch replaced Zusy as new. editor. Cliff Lorenz edited the feature page until semesters when Dave Zaehringer took over as feature editor. Dave Halvorsen was appointed sports editor at the start of the year and received aid from Ed Krolak as an intramural editorship was created. The two man staff handled virtually all Lorian sports during the year. Daniel Flynn was a very able business manager for the Lorian this year and Charles Monckton was cir- culation manager for the paper. Ted Scharle and Clyde McMahon shared the photography duties. Staff writers included: Raymond Herman, David Hintgten and Gerald Oberbroeckling. ==58= Editor Zusy, iS sr S¥Sare Serie es fe Fine Arts The Loras Fine Arts Guild is not an organization of ac- complished artisons but of st udents who want to find out more about and develop a better appreciation of the fine arts, especially of music, literature, and painting. The Guild has had the good fortune this past year to have had many fine guest speakers including: Msgr. Luby speaking on “The Fine Arts Seen on My European Tour,” Father James Dono- hue on “George Bernard Shaw, the Dramatist,” and Mr. Richard Kitz in a well presented, finely varied piano recital. Lecturers solicited from the guild membership included Charles Lowe on “Basic Colors in Painting,” John Farrell on Henry Steel Commager, William Mills on sculpture and Charles Hulne on musical comedy. Father William Most, the moderator of the Fine Arts Guild, was the last speaker of the year and gave a fine talk with pictorial slides on the art of ancient Egypt. President Charles Hulne has succeeded in making the club one of the most popular on the Loras campus and as a result of this many students are eager to join an organization which not only entertains but instruucts. tis Guiding the Fine Arts Guild during the past year have been these four devotees to the classics, Charles Lowe, Secretary; Charles Hulne, President; John D. Far- rell, Vice-President and David Brom, Treasurer. Te Throughout the year the Fine Arts Guild presents several guest speakers. Pictured here is Rev. James J.

One of the outstanding achievements by a single member was the enrolling of 160 new members by Richard Kitz in Angelic Warfare. The entire order spent many days and nights preparing homecoming decorations, thus helping to make it one of the biggest homecoming celebrations on record. —64— Upon the death of Father Craney an all night vigil was kept by the Brothers who recited the Office of the Dead in the chapel of Christ the King.

At this picnic new members are introduced to the old and graduating members say good bye to their friends.

At Loras college over one hundred and sixty joined the crusade, and many more took an active part in its functions, as a result of this the C.S.M.C. is one of the largest campus organizations. Besides promoting the welfare of the missions the CSMC was instrumental in providing one of the high spots on the Loras social calendar, that being the annual St. Patrick’s day misison auction.

For its members the mission proved one thing cer- tain, that it is better to give than to receive. Philosophy Club This fall something new was added on the cam- pus of Loras college. The Philosophy club under the guidance of Father Collins was founded. A com- mittee composed of James Barta, James Chapman and John Sullivan drew up the constitution of the club. The main purpose of the club is to present a medium for the presentation of topics of philosophi- cal interest, and a means of promoting enthusiasm for and devotedness to truth found anywhere, but especially as found on the level of philosophy. Special emphasis is given to the discussion follow- ing the topic presentation for it is felt that here in the give and take of discussion philosophy tends to become part of the individual, and not just another subject on the curriculum. Topics which have been discussed this year include the philosophy of William James, the father of Pragratism, the philosophy of John Dewey, the most influential of American philosophers and educators, the philosophy and his- tory of Communism, and the ethics and nature of spiritualism. The officers for this year were John Sullivan, President, Edward Pfeffer Ist Vice-President and Raymond Runder 2nd Vice-President, Secretary- Treasurer was Thomas Ralph. Rev.

No other group of students on the Loras college campus can say that it is more closely interwoven with the history of Loras than can the clerics. Loras has an excellent reputation for the high caliber of graduates it has trained for every field from law to commerce, from medicine to the priesthood. This reputation has been justly earned, based on the achievements of the graduates, rather than what others said about them. But without detracting from the achievements and inherent worth of the various departments of the school and without giving the false impression that the non-cleric element is foreign to this educa- tional institution, we should say that the main pur- pose for instituting Loras college those hundred and some years ago was the training of candidates for the Holy Priesthood. For several decades the work of the school went on with all or a majority of the students being clerics. The success of the work of Loras is seen in the success of the work of its graduate priests. An unprecedented number have been chosen to lead the Holy Church as descendents of the Apostles. Untold hundreds of these men, both in orders and in the secular clergy have done much for the fur- therance of the work of the Church in this country, especially in Iowa and surrounding states. Only in recent years have the clerical students become a minority at Loras. But they have con- tinued to show their qualities of leadership and energetic hard work by their participation in every campus activ ity and group. Clerics from the class of ‘52. Left to right: The training of students for the priesthood at Loras is probably unique. During their Freshman and Sophomore years there is little to tell a cleric from a non-cleric. They live together, take their classes together. When the pre-cleric becomes a Junior he moves to fourth floor of Keane Hall. His life becomes a little more closely regulated, a preparation for the life wihch will be his in sem- inary and throughout his life as a priest. He rises earlier than the others in the morning, makes his meditation with the other clerics and then attends Mass and receives Holy Communion with the other resident students. His day is filled with study and classes, a little more philosophy than the others, probably more Latin, such “clerical” courses as Ecclesiastical speceh, chant, scripture. But even in these last two years he studies with the First row: Meyer, Penchi, Hunt, Chapman, Franklin, Runde, Backer, Burke, Venne.

RICS other students as he takes cour ses in history or English or science or whatever other subject he may prefer as his major. As a cleric, he is to forego such things as movies, dances, he gets no nights out and his trips home are limited to the holidays and cases of emergency. On the positive side of his training, he benefits from the talks and conferences of the spiritual direc- tor, dean, and the Bishop, all aimed particularly at preparing him for the life of a Seminarian. Each cleric has his own spiritual adviser whom he feels free to visit at any time and talk over any prob!ems or difficulties he may have or to just spend a pleasant period of conversation if he so wishes. The result of such a program of training is a class of young men, well trained in any one of the numerous fields of study open to Loras men, well grounded in his faith, advancing along the road of his spiritual life. They mix well with people, know how to lead others and keep themselves in line. They’ve made numerous friends among the lay students, among those men who will be the doctors, lawyers, teachers, businessmen of their parishes later on. They’re developed among themselves a healthy group spirit and the personal friendship such as will not diminish even after several decades.

Sacristans One of the most honored organizations to which a student may belong is that of the Sactistans. Every year six clerics are chosen by the Rev. Ernest P. Ament, Loras Spiritual director. Their duties consist in serving about the Main Altar of the Chapel of Christ the King and in the Chapel of the Apostles, care of the altars, the sanctuary, and the sacred vessels and vestments; also the appoint- ment and the instruction of Mass servers and of- ficers for the ceremonies throughout the year. Perhaps no one really realizes how much actual work and sacrifice is tied up with the sacristans job. Each sacristan has several altars, which he attends every day.

Named after the Roman meeting house whose walls resounded with the words of brilliant orators, the Loras Curia, too, is dedicated to better speaking. This group limits its membership to thirty so that all will have an opportunity to air his talents during the year. They meet on Saturday night, every week if possible. At each meeting two members speak, and three members give constructive criticisms of those same speeches. Topics have varied everywhere from Religion to politics. Topics of current national interest are often the subject for a debate. This year the Curia chose as its officers Don Washburn as president, Bill Joffee as vice-president and Dave Pepper as secretary-treasurer. Rev.

It is an organization composed of stu- dents interested in teaching as a profession. At the present time, there is a total membership of thirty- seven members. The IFTA holds monthly meetings and devotes most of its time to the development of the profes- sion of teaching as a career. During the school year regional meetings are held whereby delegates from the various schools in the Northeast regions are invited to discuss various problems that arise or will arise in the teaching profession. These meetings are held at various schools such as Wartburg college, Iowa State Teachers college, University of Dubuque, Clarke college, Ellsworth Junior college, Mason City Junior college and Loras. The organization has for its officers James Muehl, president, Joseph McGuill vice-president, Roman Gales, secretary, Clifford Lorenz, treasurer and Mr. Anton Slechticky, faculty moderator. Donald Ament is the Northeast Region vice-president. “o It is interesting to note that all members of the Loras chapter are also state members of IFTA and, as a result, receive a monthly magazine and a month- ly pamphlet stating the different items of news that would be of interest to future teachers of this state, and of the Northeast region. Throughout the school year speakers are brought in to talk to the future teachers, sometimes these speakers are parents telling the would be teacher what to expect from the point of view of the mother and father, othertimes it may be a business man speaking for the community and again it may be a student from one of the local high schools telling us what to expect from the average high school student. All is not work and play with the IFTA, social functions and school activities, such as the creating of homecoming decorations, are carried out in the school year. It is an organization that, as President Muehl states: “Keeps us informed on the items that are new in the educational world so that as a result, we, the future teachers of Iowa, can make a better educational system for our state and our country.” The Loras chapter of IFTA and their moderator.

Labor Club A comparatively young organization on the Loras campus, but yet one which does a lot of good work, is the Labor club. Formed only three years ago, this small, but active group, has accomplished much in the meantime. The purpose of the group is to develop intelligent, active Catholics who can and will take a hand in public affairs, especially those on the labor front.

The social com- mittee does its best to answer that demand.

Chicago Club When a substantial fraction of a school’s student body and alumni come from any one city or area it is only natural that in due course of time someone form a club for these people. Such is the case at Loras where, especially in re- cent years, many of the students have come from Chicago, and correspondingly a Chicago-Loras club has been founded. This is one organization whose activities are not limited to the campus, in fact most of them occur miles away, inasmuch as most of its activities take =9h== the form of dances, smokers and parties whose pur- pose is to get the Chicago men together. In the past, most of these functions have taken place in the great city of Chicago. However, the group is not defunct on campus. Its main activity this year was the spring picnic. The Chicago-Loras club shows great possibilities for contributing in an organized way to the work and welfare of the school. Big guns in the group this year are Dick Bonin, Bill Ambrose, Ralph Reetz and Jack O'Malley.

Yes, a familiar statement in any camera club, especially in the Loras Camera club. This group at Loras is composed of the shutter and lens enthusiasts who are found on any college campus. However, not only the camera and _ its operations are their interests but the many other aspects of photography as well. Father William Most, the moderator of the club, sponsors the group and with his aid help furthers the science, art and knowledze of the mysterious little black box called, by Mr. Eastman, a Kodak. Meetings were held monthly under the guiding hand of the club’s president, Richard Hess. At these meetings lectures were given by the members on such topics as the camera and its operation, enlarging, printing, types of film, print paper, and other aspects of photography. The club has its own darkroom and equipment which is open for use to the members. Moderator—Fr.

By all odds, this is the noisiest bunch at Loras. But no one ever complains, they aren't put on the Dean’s list because of it for noise is their business. Everyone knows that many games are won or lost by one point, by the success or failure of one play. And every varsity athlete will emphatically tell you that those single points come much more easily, and those plays are made successfully more often when there is a large and particularly vociferous crowd behind them. The job of the cheerleaders was even more import- ant this year in view of the fact that Lady Fortune didn’t always smile on our teams. Tt’s impossible to say just what part of the suc- cess of a team is do to the cheering but whatever is said, some part of the credit must be reserved to the cheerleaders. = 7g) Joe Schueman—studies in comfort.

For in 10 years of coaching in college ranks, the genial basketball skipper had not once floored a losing team until this year’s squad finished on the short end of the score 21 times. After dominating both the Midlands and the Iowa conference championships in 1949-50 and 1950-51, Loras found itself ambushed on the conference trails at almost every turn this season. In the five team Mid- lands league the Duhawks finished in fourth place in the standings with two wins and six losses. St. Norbert and St. Ambrose, both finishing with 6-2 league records, shared the championship. The Iowa conference also caught up with the Hilltop Head Coach Vince Dowd cagers, wresting seven of 10 contests from the defending titlists. Wartburg college took the top spot in the north- ern division of the loop and defeated Parsons c ollege, southern division champs, in the conference playoff con- test. A losing streak, which began early in December and lasted until January 10, sent the Duhawks skidding far below the respectable .500 mark. At the outset of the losing jinx, Loras was ahead in the win column with a 3-2 mark, but nine games later the record had tail- spinned to 3 wins, 11 losses. After that disastrous span, Coach Dowd’s squad never managed to put another pair of victories back to back. Sophomore Leo Schlueter was the leading scorer for the Lorasmen. The lanky guard tallied a total of 261 points for an average of 9.6 points per game.

There’s one good reason why the Loras college basketball team came up with the losingest season in the school’s history this year . . . the Duhawks won but one game on foreign courts. Add the one victory away from home to the half dozen picked up in the friendly confines of the Loras fieldhouse, and the season total reads: 7 wins, 21 defeats. The Duhawks opened its season without one veteran in the starting lineup. bur managed to squeak past an Alumni squad by a 58-50 score. The lack of experience was evident in the second game of the season as Loras lost an 80-72 decision to Platteville State college on the Wisconsin court. With its season count at 1-1, Loras opened defense of its Midlands conference championship with a two game eastern swing. The Purple and Gold built a big lead and then staved off a late rally to defeat Lewis college, 58-53, the first night our. However, a veteran St. Joseph quint dumped the Duhawks, 56-38, the next afternoon. Loras came home and surprised local fans with a smooth 74-63 victory over a much taller Quincy basketball club. Nel Ganshirt’s 19 points highlighted the Duhawks’ brilliant effort. However. this was the last time the Duhawks were to sniff at the roses of victory fo r a month and a half. Lewis college gained revenge for its previous loss and started Loras on its long losing streak with 59-52 triumph here on the Hilltop court. That left the Duhawks’ record at 3-3. Western Ililnois State college put another mark in the Hilltoppers’ deficit column, grinding out a methodical 61-38 romp. The Leather- necks from Macomb were superior in every department and proved it in fine fashion. The Loras cagers traveled to Davenport next and here absorbed a 75-68 de- feat from St. Ambrose. The Bees’ ended their basketball frustration at the hands of Loras after six straight setbacks, three of them by one point. ; St. No rbert college from West De Pere, Wis., entertained Loras with a 68-55 defeat, the Duhawks fourth straight setback in Midlands conference play and their fourth straight loss in a losing streak which still had a long way to go. A well-balanced St. Mary’s basketball ream from Winona, Minn., introduced the Duhawks to a fellow named Pat Costello and then carried off a 66-58 victory. Costello harassed the Lorasmen with 21 points. This closed the pre-holiday cage slat for Loras. Coach Dowd took his team to the Coe college invitational basketball tourna- ment during the holiday season. In the first game the Hilltoppers lost to Luther by a 59-54 count after trailing by 16 points at half time. In the consolation finals the second night, Coe soundly defeated the Duhawks, 68-63. However, Loras played without its regular center, Nel Ganshirt, who was injured the Pee night against Luther.

Loras swung out west and absorbed a pair of defeats at the hands of Buena Vista and Westmar colleges by respective scores of 65-48 and 59-53. The double defeat completely eliminated Loras from the championship picture. Luther defeated Loras for the third time this season, 75-68, at Decorah. Loras added its seventh victory of the season to its record by defeating Westmar, 54-49 Wartburg clinched the northern division title, stopping Loras at Waverly, 68-53.

For the Duhawk trackmen, masters of the cinder classic for the past three seasons, saw their cross-town rivals Dubuque University step out in front of the Conference’s thinclads and win going away. The league track meet was almost an exclusive intra-city contest be- tween Loras and Dubuque. However, Dubuque’s depth and a fellow named Bob Williams proved the difference.

A dropped baton going into the second lap put the Duhawks a good 35 yards behind and seemingly out of the running. Loras’ second man, Bill Treacy, picked up a little ground, burt it was Bob Voorhees in the third lap and anchorman Warner who really brought the crowd to its feet. Voorhees cut the trailing dist- ance in half, and then Warner went all out to bring Loras home second, a few strides shy of a first place finish, If Warner had not been “boxed in” on the far turn of the track, he would have come home first. Warner also won the 440-yard dash, setting a new Loras college record of :50.8. The 440 and Lahart’s 220 hurdle victory were the only firsts garnered by Loras. a a oo a Loras college’s track team, lacking the depth of former years, still managed to finish strong in several meets throughout the course of the 31 season. In dual meets with St. Ambrose college, the Duhawks thinclads were far superior, defeating the Bee runners twice by respective scores of 105- 30 and 102-34, Loras ran second in a quadrangular meet at Iowa State Teachers col- lege, but it was a rather dismal second as the host school can up 73 points while the Duhawks managed 35. Upper Iowa and Wartburg followed respectively with eight and six points. Joe Lahart established a new Loras record, skimming the 220 low hurdles in :24.6, while leading the Duhawks to a respectable fourth in the strong St. Thomas Relays at St. Paul. Loras runners also participated in the Iowa Teachers college relays and Drake relays, but failed to score against the tougher competition. . In the Iowa conference divisional meet, Loras won easily, scoring 691; Points in the process. Lahart was the top individual scorer for the season with a total of 895, points. “Versatile Joe” ran both hurdle races, the 100-yard dash, a leg on the 880-yard relay team and competed in the pole vault. Fresh- man Carl Warner was second in the point-making department with 5934 while weightman Jerry Witry scored 42.

Here are the trophies won by Lorasmen at the 1952 Midlands conference extramural meet. For the vast majority of Lorasmen, Participation in col- lege athletics does not mean competition as a member of one of the Duhawk varsity intercollegiate squads. Rather, it means a spot on one of the dozen or more teams which Participate in each of the sports which make up Loras’ ex- cellent intramural program. While these athletes may lack some of the skill which their intercollegiate varsity brothers Possess, they are not lacking in spirit and the will to play and win. In fact, it is rumored that there are those ‘murals- men who would rather play basketball than eat and those who would rather stay and sink a few than go home on vacation. Exaggerated though this may appear, it does in some sense capture the spirit of the college intramural pro- gram. For, from the crack of dawn until Doc throws the switch at night, the fieldhouse echoes to the steady bouncing of balls, be they volley or basket types. No less enthusiastic than their upstairs partners are the Lorasmen of the cellar, the bowling and handball teams. For Pure exertion, you have to hand it to the handballers. A brow covered with sweat seems to be the uniform for this sport. Doug Venne, the Hilltop’s No. 1 all-around athlete, won the handball singles this year and Jim Stein and Jim Trankina were the doubles winners. Unfortunately for the Purgold and for posterity these gentlemen are not photo- genic and we are not able to include their pictures in our champs? section this year. We would be remiss in our task of chronicling the year’s activities if we failed to mention the outdoor ‘murals pro- gram. In the fall Keane field echoes to the thunder of size twelve brogans as touch football competition is in full swing, In the spring, there is the crack of the bat and the moan of the spectator as the right fielder muffs a fly ball in the softball competition. Also in the spring when Msgr. Gan- non’s varsity is not on the courts, men can be found under the blazing sun swatting at a small, round, fuzzy spheroid with a racquet strung with the insides of a cat. Where does this frenzy of athletic activity end? Well, in addition to its body-building and physical benefits it earns for winning individual participants handsome trophies and for top teams the glittering array of trophies seen above. Every year the Midlands conference sponsors an Extramural tournament in one of the cities in the league in which the best in intramurals of every team in the conference play for the coveted trophy symbolic of first place and acknowledge- ment as the best in Midlands intramurals. The Midlands tournament has been held for five years and four times in succession, including the past season, the Loras representa- tives have brought home the trophy gold to the Hilltop campus. This year’s tournament was held in Davenport, Iowa with St. Ambrose college the host school. Competition was held in five of intramural sports, ping pong singles and doubles, basketball, bowling and volleyball. Loras won the tournament decisively scoring a total of twenty-one points, St. Ambrose was second with fourteen, St. Norbert third with five, while St. Joseph and Lewis col- leges failed to score. Loras picked up its winning total by garnering three first places and two seconds. The results in the Midlands Tourneys are perhaps the best indication of the fine intramural setup here at Loras and they are certainly a glowing tribute to the abilities of the plain “Campus Joes” who carry the Purple and Gold to victory in this annual event. — 103 — S RDOORW CERCZ aRHZH4 = Sey ees oa — Pa iets aa a 1952 Intramural BASKETBALL Doc’s Boys, a sphomore-studded intramural basketball team, was the talk of the campus in March as it fought its way to the college intramural cage champ- ionship in the double elimination play-off tournament. The youthful courtmen refused zo take a back seat from the upperclass teams during the regular seacon easily winning a play-off berth. In the playoffs, the eventual champions absorbed one setback, 2 22-20 loss to the Meatballs, but resumed their winning ways and knocked off the highly-touted Undecided Ten in the semi-finals to get a second crack at the Meatballs who were still unbeaten in tourney play. a i The Meatballs absorbed their initial defeat in the first final game, and were ousted from the tourna- ment the following day as Doc ’s Bovs won the champ- ionship and the trip to the Midlands tournament. At the Midlands tourney, the Loras reps took a first round decision from St. Joseph and then received a bye in the semi-finals. Doc’s Boys met the Barracks 8 squad from St. Ambrose in the finals and lost a heartbreaking, 60-59, decision. A long, two-handed set shot in the final minute of play provided the winning basket for the Ambrosians. 4 15 je Six members of Doc’s Boys, Loras college’s inre-Tnural basketball champions, pose for the cameraman In ce above photo.

The Cats’ championship ended the domination pe the volleyball program by a team recognized as one Nite Owls. The Nite Oowls, broken up largely by graduation, had won the school championship for the past three seasons. Championship Winners FOOTBALL Claiming honors as one of the finest intramural touch football teams ever to cavort on the Loras col- lege campus are the 1951 champions, the 1000 Aces. Coached by Ed (Colonel) McNulty and quarter- backed by Tommy (Czar) Hunt, the 100 Aces com- pleted its regular season play undefeated, untied and unscored upon. No team in the league could match the Aces’ blazing speed nor penetrate their subborn defense. In the annual play-offs for the college championship, “Pops” McNulty’s boys pulled through undefeated and untied, but were forced to relinquish their unscored upon record in the semi-finals against the defending champion Celtics. The Celtics scored a pair of safeties against the Aces, bur wound up on the short end of a 7-4 score. In the finals the 100 Aces dropped the freshmen league champions, the Rebels, by a 13-0 count. That com- pleted the Aces’ perfect season with a record of 10 straight wins. The Aces, unlike most intramural! teams, owned a definite pattern of plays and needed only a number in their huddle from Quarterback Hunt to know the next play. Hunt, a great mural competitor. also handled most of the passing for the champions. The 1000 Aces, Coach ‘’Colonel’’ Ed McNulty’s out- standing touch football team are: (back row) left to right, Coach McNulty, Tom Hunt, Jack Steinberg, Tom ee ie Alex Casper; (front row) Dan Overack, Dick The Joliets, intramural bowling champions, won a first aley, Ray Runde and Jim (Bohunk) Chapman. place at the annual Midlands extramural. tournament this March.

BOWLING For awhile this winter it appeared as though Doc Kammer’s_ renovation job on the Loras bowling lanes would go for naught as the mural bowling program en- countered difficulties in getting started. Flowever, the keglers soon took the situation in hand and formed a league in which the maples flew as com- Petition got hot and heavy.

Tennis kings John (Tink) Conley and Nel Ganshirt PING-PONG Dick Voellinger, freshman from Waterloo, Ta., was king of the campus ping-pong players during the past year. Voellinger showed his superiority at the game of table tennis, de- eating all comers to win the fall champion- ship. Voellinger represented Loras at the Mid- lands tourney and won the singles champion- ship of the Midlands conference and teamed with John Conley to win the doubles title in ping pong at the extramural meet. — 106 — TENNIS John (Tink) Conley and Lionel (Nel) Ganshirt were the top mural tennis players during the fall season. The two aetmen won the doubles championship and Ganshirt also gained the singles title.

Be more than breastplate of a youth's desire To foil the adversaries’ telling spears: Be shield against my own heart’s knifing fire That challenges these eucharistic years. Christ-hing, advance and overpower me: Who falls to You shall rise immortally. REV.
