The executive board, Council, is composed of sixteen members who administrate student ' affairs through the rights and duties expressed in our constitution. This complex structure of governmental activity, although it acts within its exclusive sphere, forms a liason between the Administration and Undergraduate Association. STUDENT GOVERNMENT 54 • i 1 ' .

The students and their mothers gather around the tea table as Chairman Louise Cavallaro pours. Judy Sheridan and her parents pray in the Chapel. COMMITTEE The religious program at Saint Joseph ' s College is rooted and founded in the principle that the devotional life of the individual is, by nature, essentially voluntary. Because of this basic premise, attendance is compulsory at religious functions only three times during the academic year: the Mass of the Holy Ghost, the annual Holy Week retreat, and the Missa Cantata on Baccalaureate Sunday. The Bridge Committee takes a minute out from their chores to Ime up for the cameraman. Nonetheless, the religious life of the College is rich and varied. Each morning. Mass is said in the Chapel ; at noon, Holy Hour is conducted ; every First Friday, an Evening with Christ is held; and a Dies Orientales is designated. Of course, the Fashion Show was a feature attrac- tion at the .mnual Bridge. 57 These few pictures aptly represent the liturgical cycle as reflected in the religious activities through- out the school year. The cycle, beginning in Advent, is symbolized by the Crib which is set up in the Chapel. We have our annual retreat, appropriately enough, amid the moving solemnity of Holy Week. The first Monday in May witnesses the outdoor May crowning ceremony on the campus. In addition, the Committee arranges for the celebration of a Mass in the Eastern rite — the Dies Orientales. These extensive functions, and more, are im- plemented by the services of the Religion Com- mittee, composed of those undergraduates who freely and willingly choose to spend time and effort not only in assisting the liturgy, but also in facilitating the entire religious program. In addi- tion to this responsibility, the Religion Committee is also an active social force since they sponsor the popular Bridge and Fashion Show and the annual program presented at General Assembly. Highly respected in the life of the College, the Religion Committee is a realization of the abiding truth of the College motto: Esse non videre. On Holy Thursday, during the annual retreat, the parlor is transformed into a repository altar for the Blessed Sacrament. 59 y ' X The Chapel Players is one of the oldest and most active extra- curricular organizations in the Collsge. It was formed along the lines of the Little Theatre movement as a dramatic laboratory. The first group came together, drawn by their common interest m every phase of drama. That tradition has come down to the present group of Chapel Players so that in each production they try to express faith- fully the author ' s intention. The members familiarize themselves with all phases of the theatre; acting, costuming, make-up, direct- ing and stage-managmg. Versatility is shown at various programs throughout the year but the crowning achievement is the major production which is given each spring. Florence Pyne, Lucille Lullo, and Peggy Collins were the supporting players m Our Htjris Wire Youtig and G.ty. CHAPEL PLAYERS Connie Johnson. Carol Clark, and Peggy Kruse figure ir. one of the important scenes from last year ' s major production. ■ ?5 . S H-., ' - MODERN DANCE The Modern Dance Club has come of age in the last two years. The proof of this statement lies in a consideration of the recent achi£vements of the Club, In addition to the annual Dance Concert, the group performs for the parents, N.F.C.C.S., and also during Freshman Orientation Week. The March issue of Jubilee Magazine carried a spread on the dance group right here in our own backyard. The selections chosen for execution have a wide range — from the classical Greek Iphigenia to the twentieth century Jazz Suite. Their pro- gram varies from American folk dances to medieval ballads and satire. Modern Dance itself is a creative activity by which external actions reveal the inner feelings of the performer. This creative process is completed only with the reaction that takes place in the audience. Members of the group study formal techniques to facilitate the actual expression in the dance movement. The net result of individual experimentation is a feeling of enjoyment and, particularly, of accomplishment. Through the studied application of time and energy, the members seek to fulfill the aim of the art of Modern Dances — to communicate a reality too dec-p tor words. 61 THE CHOIR The Choir is one of the exponents of our rehgious life at our College. Through the beautiful medium of Gregorian Chant, they sing the Mass each First Friday in the chapel. Among their other notable activities, the Choir enhances the solemnity of Holy Week by chanting the Easter liturgy. During the week preceding Christmas, they participate in the Christmas assembly and visit a nearby hospital to sing carols. At the close of the Spring term, the Choir sings the Mass on Baccalaureate Sunday and assists at Holy Hour on the evening of graduation. These major functions, as well as their many and varied lesser activities, make the Choir a vital and integral part of our extracurricular life. It is a working force in combining the academic and religious phases by tuning us in, from time to time, through the chant, with the . . . still, sweet music of humanity. 62 GLEE CLUB The Glee Club, open to everyone, is charac- terized by a feeling of solidarity. Weekly practices produce this united spirit. One of the- most active organizations in the college, its major efforts for the year are directed toward the Spring Concert. Incidental programs are offered at various times, such as on Parents ' Day and during Orientation Week. At Christmastime, the girls visit a nearby hospital to sing Christmas Carols. 1— J. Costa, P.

Elaine and Doris Jacklitsch mirror their happy feelings. One of the popular facets of the college social life is the dance program scheduled on the yearly calendar: the fall Sports ' Hop, the U.A. Dance, and frequent Sunday afternoon Tea Dances. The evening dances are major projects, complete with lavish decorations, refreshments, and a band. At the afternoon socials, we trip the light fantastic to the music of the nation ' s top bands — via records. Despite the source of the musical background a pleasant atmosphere, conducive to complete enjoyment, always exists. INFORMAL DANCES Above, Jean Handai and her escort stop at the boxotfice. Right, the couples waltz to the strains of Bill McCarthy ' s orchestra at the Harvest FroLc. A saxophone and a lindy combine at the Sports Hop. The refreshment table makes a picturesque still life study. SPANISH CLUB Passing the room in the basement of the library, you may stop for a moment, slightly bewildered, and listen. If the conversation is unmistakably Spanish, then, surely, Hupanij is meeting. The discussion at a meeting of the Spanish Club varies from Spanish art, literature, and traditions to the latest in Spanish musical trends. Slides and films often supplement the discussions. Once a year, the members are concerned with pre- paring for a Modern Language G.A. At this time, they communicate their interests to the student body through a faithful rendition of folk music and dancing or by colorful films. FRENCH CLUB Anyone interested in learning more about the colorful customs, dances, or folk songs of France has only to attend a meeting of the local authorities on the subject. Le Cercle Moliere. The members have a varied slate of activities: enthusiastic discus- sions on French drama and art and excursions to French restaurants and motion pictures. Of course, meetings of the Club also provide an opportunity for speaking French. This language proficiency will probably prove useful both to future students and prospective Continental tourists. CHILD STUDY The Child Study Club analyzes the piublcms facing the mcidern child and attempts to offer a solution to these problems ' by suggestions from the group which are based on tested principles. Authorities on child psychology arc- invited to discuss topics of special con- sideration. MATHEMATICS The Mathematics Club offers a practical application of formal classroom learning. Members of the group report on subjects of general interest and current events in the field. In addition, they propose practical aids to prospective math teachers in secondary schools. 69 I.R.C. 70 The International Relations Club is a history study club conducted under stu- dent auspices. Each semester, a chosen . theme is carried through by a series of related discussions. The members con- sider such vital topics as the contro- versial Arab-Israeli situation or the Red China co-existence problem. I.R.C. is not restricted to majors or minors in the field, but is open to all students who display an interest in current world affairs. DEBATE The Debate Club is a small, but active group which seeks to resolve issues of national importance. The members choose a broad topic of current con- sideration and, through readings and research, present the conflicting theories and attitudes. They take a mature and serious approach to the material and carefully weigh both sides before pro- posing their stand. The Club engages in debates with groups from a number of colleges and universities, including: Saint John ' s, Fordham, and Hofstra, N.S.A. The National Student Association is a recent addition to Saint Joseph ' s inter- collegiate activities. N.S.A. is a national union of colleges and universities, both Catholic and secular, which offers varied services to its member schools. ' Working through the Student Government, N.S.A. provides contact and comparison of col- legiate views on a national scale. SOCIAL SERVICE During the Christmas season, the Social Service Club provides for the welfare of underprivileged families by collecting food, clothes, and toys. The j irls package the gifts attractively and distribute tliem directly to the families. QUID NOVI Quid Novi concerns itself primarily with discus- sions on current events — what ' s new . . . The Club stresses the necessity of keeping attuned to world affairs in order that the individual student will emerge with a well-rounded, unbiased ,icquainlance with world society. N. F. C. C. S. The National Federation of Catholic College Stu- dents differs from N.S.A. in that it operates, not through Student Government, but through the campus groups in the College. Through conven- tions, regional meetings, and school services, N.F.C.C.S. evaluates and channels suggestions for improvements and additions to campus activities. 71 H.

The Literary Society is an enthusiastic group of new- critics who seek to extend their knowledge of the vast bulk of literary material — past and contemporary. Then- approach and attitude is of a serious tone, but the meet- ings are held, circle-wise, in the informality of the Rec Room. The girls read specific material for each meeting and consider and interpret it in open discussions. Reading is stressed for its sheer enjoyment since understanding literature adds depth and breadth to the pleasure derived. This year, the group decided, by unanimous consent, on the general topic of humor. They subdivided the broad topic with a consideration of selected humorists. The high point was the Society ' s December G. A. presentation of an adaptation of James Thurbers fantasy, The Thirteen Clocks. In addition, they swerved from the humorous vein by devoting one meeting to Dylan Thomas recordings. The Society permits all those interested to turn their attentions to special areas and consider certain literature m a fashion beyond the scope of the classroom. It serves to broaden the literary horizon and encourage an apprecia- tion of that great art accessible to all of us. LITERARY SOCIETY 72 ART CLUB The Art Club provides an outlet for the creative their individual tastes. In addition to this personal tendencies of the students. Their work is executed activity, the Art Club also provides a representa- in all media: oils, charcoal, water-colors, crayon, tive sampling of advertismg posters for school and tempera. Meetings are held once a week and functions, thus assurmg a high artistic standard the members are free to develop their talents to in all displays. RELIGION COMMITTEE 73 r A was recalled by popular GENERAL ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE The General Assembly Committee supervises the Monday afternoon programs offered to the student body by setting up a schedule at the beginning of the school year. The girls who direct the bi- monthly assemblies are: Chairman M. Bennett, L. Cardone, M. Shea, E. McGuire, S. Manning, and M. Collins. At Christmas, the Chapel Players staged an excerpt from Paul Claudel ' s Tidings Brought to Mury. 74 WHO ' S WHO IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES Several seniors are chosen each year to represent the college in Who ' s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. Perhaps these names are a preview of a future Who ' s Who in America. Nommated for their scholarship, cooperation, and leadership in college activities were: Margaret Kruse, Catherine Scorcia, Margaret Buckley, Ann Smith, Angela Crociata, and Mary Shea. DELTA EPSILON SIGMA Each year, after Parents ' Day, several new gold and white shields identify the seniors who have been chosen to become members of Delta Epsilon Sigma, the National Catholic Honor Society. Those chosen this year for their outstanding character and high scholastic achievement were: Margaret Buckley, Diane Milde, Margaret Kruse, Ann Fallert, and Mary Shea. MERCIER CIRCLE Saint Joseph ' s philosophy program finds fultillment in Mercier Circle, the phil- osophical society of the college. Mercier Circle is open to seniors with a high philosophy average. A topic is chosen and developed throughout the year. Each month difficult philosophical ideas are discussed by; Diane Milde, Marie Therese Pomares, Mary Rose Novellino, Dolores Burke, Clara Haber, Ann Fallert, Margaret Kruse, Suzanne Todd, and Mary Shea. 76 GLEE CLUB CHAPEL PLAYERS 76 r ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Athletic Association seems to be the most popular attraction for the incoming freshmen. The group is threefold in interest: basketball, bowling, and Softball. Included in the scope of the A. A. are the varsity team and the sponsorship of the annual Sports Hop in the fall semester. All of these subdivisions are directed toward the basic principle of the A. A.: to bring the undergraduates together in • an informal atmosphere of mild competition. 77 -4 I,- ' i% o S ;.r, .n a Miss Ward, P. Gill, M. Wing. P.- Kearney, C. McKinley, P. Ansbro, J. Marino, C.

The Varsity, ably coached by Miss Ward and spurred on by the cheerleaders, serves to unite the student body in a spirit of competition. Their record of victories is impressive but, win or lose, the primary end IS achieved by formint; inter-coUegiate contacts which are governed by the rules of sportsmanship. The Cheerleaders are the color guard of the Varsity: they con- tribute active and vocal incentive to the team. As a small representative segment, they symbolize student participation in backing the Varsity.

TOPAZ Topaz, the school newspaper, is a relatively new phase of the extracurricular activity in the college. It is still largely in the experimental stage: new formats and journalistic approaches are being con- sidered, and the paper, as a whole, is growing and developing through the experience of its staff. Topaz covers school functions, class news, Stu- dent Council bulletins, vacation and holiday notes, and also includes feature items and editorial com- ments. As the organ of student opinion, Topaz is an integral part of that whole which is college life. M. Kearney, A. Porter, J. M.irtin, J. Scanlun, K. Sullivan, M. Johnson, J. Martin, M. Maguire, J. Woods, B. Mor- rison, J. Handal, C. Marline, E. Murray, P. Gibbons, and M. Mangan. Co-editor Jean Martin supervises Topaz production. Loiia. which takes its name from Bishop Molloy ' s titular see, provides a medium for creative expression in the fields of fiction, poetry, essay and illustration. The college literary magazine, pub- lished three times a year, reflects student ideas on current events and gives each student an oppor- tunity to try her hand at an imaginative tale, a critical essay, a poem or an illustration. The editor welcomes all manuscripts that promote the ex- change of ideas and views and create better under- standing in the student body. Since it is on the exchange list of many other colleges, Loiia serves to make Saint Joseph ' s better known and appre- ciated in the collegiate world.

The production of a yearbook is a complex process stretching over an entire year. It involves the necessary ' preliminaries of choosing a theme and setting up the dummies, gathering the photographic and copy material, and, finally, the hectic rush to meet the deadline. However, all these external necessities do not add up to a yearbook. The tradition of Footprints is rooted far deeper than the mere mechanics of sending a manuscript to press. Its embryonic beginnings stem back to the college literary magazine, Loria. In years past, Loria published a supplementary annual which recorded the year ' s activities: it was called, symbolically. Footprints. Despite our failings and inadequacies, we intend to record, upon the sands of time, a record of Saint Joseph ' s College 1954-1955. Moreover, we hope that Footprints will succeed in being a lasting memento for our particular subjects — the Class of 1955. 82 -■r«cz.:3 i td J :- ( ■ UNDERGRADUATES CLASS OF lANUARY 1956 CLASS OF lUNE 1956 87 CLASS OF JANUARY 1937 CLASS Ol- JUNE 1937 89 CLASS OI- JUNE 1958 90 CLASS OF JANUARY 1958 (right) CLASS OF JANUARY 1959 (below) 91 I . .

Rather, the congeniality and unity they have enjoyed as undergraduates shall be brought to full maturity as Alumnae. The Class of 1930, pictured above on their Formal Class Day, is representative of the extension, through the instrument of the Alumnae, of those ideals which motivate our College. It is as a consequence of this basic spirit of loyalty that the Class of 1930, in the tradition rendered to the members of the Alumnae celebrating their twenty-fifth anniversary, is welcomed back on Commencement Day to serve as an Honor Guard to His Excellency, the Most Reverend Thomas E.
