Director of O ' Connell Hall and superintendent of build- ings and grounds, the REV. WILLIAM H. STEINER, S.J., served his regency at Regis High School from 1946 to 1949 and, immediately after ordination, was once again sent to Regis. Father holds a Rachelor ' s degree in the classics and a Master ' s in history, both from St. Louis University, and was minister of the community for three years before becoming superintendent three years ago. Chairman of the Department of Science and Mathe- matics, REV. FRED DALY, S.J., is one of the most active and personable faculty members on the Regis faculty roster. In the classroom his witty and eloquent lectures brighten and ease the study of mathematics. His tireless devotion as chairman of the Athletic Board has contributed considerably to the high caliber of RANGER basketball in recent years. Last year, Father Daly was also the guiding force in the building of Regis ' two new buildings. As treasurer of Regis College, REV. WILLIAM F. HOUSER, S.J., holds a position envied by few of his associates. His duties demand that he be not only well versed in the intricacies of financial operations but also capable as an administrator. Every dollar connected with the operation and development of the college must pass through Fr. Houser ' s office. Fr. Houser must also determine the financial capabilities of students when he functions as a member on the committee on Student Aid and Scholarships. Presently Father is one of the Board of Trustees of the College. Since 1930, the Director of the resident students of the college has been the REV. BERNARD KARST, S.J., whose responsibilities were doubled in the past several years with the construction of O ' Connell Hall. Fr. Karst holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in the classics and a M.A. in Latin from St. Louis University. During the fall and spring semesters, Father teaches Latin, and during the summer sessions, is an assistant professor of education.

Very few positions can be found in the business world that demand the talents of an administrator, an educa- tor, and a disciplinarian. This is the position of the Dean of Studies in every Jesuit College; and at Regis, this po- sition is most capably filled by the REV. LOUIS G. MATTIONE, S.J. During his years as Dean, Fr. Mat- tione has been very active and moreover very successful in raising the academic level of the College. It has been mainly through his efforts that Regis has become able to compete academically with any other college of the nation. As Father Minister of the Jesuit community, the REV. ARTHUR O. VERDIECK, S.J., fulfills one of the most important jobs connected with the operation of the college and the high school. Fr. Verdieck received a Bachelor ' s and a Master ' s degree from St. Louis Uni- versity and now in his second year as minister is also chaplain at St. Vincent ' s Home. He is the former ath- letic director of Regis High School as well as past president of the Denver Parochial League. Dean of Men at Regis for seven years, the REV. FRAN- CIS J. MALACEK, S.J., is a member of the philosophy department and faculty representative to the Student Senate. Holding degrees in the classics, philosophy, and Sacred Theology from St. Louis University, Father taught at Rockhurst College in Kansas City and was connected with the Institute of Social Order there. Ac- tive in teacher training, Father Malacek is a member of several metropolitan councils for education and research in human relations. Assistant to the Dean, professor of business administra- tion, and head of that department, MR. JOHN V. COYNE holds an A.B. in economics from the University of Notre Dame and a Master ' s degree in business ad- ministration. Previous to coming to Denver 14 years ago, Mr. Coyne taught at Santa Maria Junior College, California, and in 1956 co-authored the book, Principles of Retailing. He is former director of the evening di- vision and a former athletic director. Pase 22

In the world of complex business it rests on the shoulders of such instructors as MR. PETER A. ROTAR, Assistant Professor in Rusiness Administration, and REV. EDWARD H. WINTERGALEN, S.J., Associate Professor of Economics, to develop the competent busi- nessmen needed. Mr. Rotar, a native of Yugoslavia, ac- quired his master ' s degree from the Harvard School of Rusiness and has previously taught at Creighton University and St. Thomas College. The Rev. Winter- galen, in addition to his demanding position as head of the Department of Economics, also very capably mod- erates the Regis RROWN GOLD. Photography and outdoor sports are Father Wintergalen ' s other prime interests on which he spends any spare moments. An understanding of the mind and a means of convey- ing understanding are the respective goals of Assistant Professor of Psychology, MR. JOHN A. FLANAGAN and Instructor in Education MR. GLEN O. STOCKING. Mr. Flanagan besides his position as Head of the Psy- chology Department is very active in lecturing to vari- ous organizations and civic groups in the Denver area. He is also associated with the placement office and is a former athletic director. Mr. Stocking, the Director of the Department of Education, is another member of the Regis faculty well known regionally for his lectures. Refore coming to Regis, Mr. Stocking taught at the Uni- versity of Denver and the United States Navy School of Music. Assistant professors JAMES RELTON and DONALD KLENE have become well-established figures in the English departm ent at Regis since their inauguration as faculty members. Among the students they have be- come quickly known for their thorough and energetic lecturing techniques in the classroom and for their con- geniality out of it. Refore coming to Regis, Mr. Relton ' s experience included the Carnegie Institute of Technolo- gy and St. Louis University. Mr. Klene served a gradu- ate fellowship at Notre Dame University where he attained his A.R. and M.A. in the field of English Litera- ture. Recently he has received his law degree from the University of Denver. One of the region ' s most renowned Jesuits, REV. DOC- TOR LUCUIS CERVANTES, S.J. is probably best known to the Regis students for his friendly smile. Resides his capacity as Professor of Sociology, he has achieved fame in the literary field with such well-known volumes as That You May Live and Marriage and the Family. As an outstanding spokesman, Fr. Cervantes has appeared on numerous radio and TV discussions. Finally as an authority on social problems, he is serving as the president of the Rocky Mountain Council on Family Relations. Page 24
