Before the birth of the United States as a nation in 1776, the Jesuits were making history at Prairie du Chien. For in the year 1673, one hundred and sixteen years pre- vious to the drafting of the Constitution, Father Marquette discovered at Prairie du Chien the Mississippi River, the Father of Waters. This great American explorer and Jesuit missionary had sailed down the Wisconsin River with his companion, Louis Joliet, in search of more souls to save for Christ. Coming to the present site of Campion ' s campus — Pere Marquette, Loyola ' s son, Made history with discovery Where two mighty rivers run. Camp on History in the Making 1945 The United States is cele- brating its one-hundred and sixty-nintli birthday. Still the Jesuits are making history. Still they are at Prairie du Chien instructing the Catholic youth of America. Here at Campion the leaders of tomorrow are being taught the truths of Christ and the knowledge of the classics and science. The Knight receives the bulk of his ed- ucation in the classroom. He is taught to be discriminating, facile, clear, and refined. The curriculum of Latin, Greek, Spanish, and French develops discrimination in the student; algebra, geometry, and trigonome- try inculcate facility and clarity; while English implants a wholesome refinement of tastes and thoughts in his character. Of extreme importance at Campion is tlie immortal soul of every Knight. The con- ference room is the oasis of spiritual help and guidance. Three days of each year are set aside to help the Knigiit realize the why and where- fore of this life — tiiree days of silence in which the Knight thinks over his past life, meditates on his present actions, and plans for the future in imitation of the life of liis Lord and Master. It is then with Jesuit instruction and assistance that the Knight understands his true value in relation to his Creator. On the held of pliysical competition many of the rules of life are learned, never to be forgotten. ' arsity and intramural sports are conducted for the benefit of every stu- dent. These competitive sports practiced at Campion instill in every Knight that will-to- win spirit, no matter what the odds may be. An athlete ' s heart is acquired by every Campion boy. Football, basketball, baseball, track, golf, tennis, handball, and many more are num- bered among a Knight ' s extra-curricular activities throughout the entire year. L ' nder the capable training of Mr. William S. Hoff- man, who has for years produced Campion teams of extraordinary prowess, varsity men compete with the outstanding teams of western Wisconsin. From his speaking experience on the ros- trum, the Knight ' s mind is molded to quick comprehension, decision, and precision. Public speaking renders to the Knights of Campion a positive portion of that poise which is indespensible to a successful man. Through debating the student sharpens his acumen and secures an agile mind and wit. In botiv, in mind, and In soul each Cam- pion graduate is prepared to make the Amer- ican history of the future. K An Introduction to Campion Nestling in the broad valley above the juncture of the Mississippi and Wisconsin Rivers, Campion stands, a bulwark of Catholic education. Campion comprises seven buildings situated to form a C design, an infirmary, a central heating plant and a spacious campus encircled by a nine-hole golf course. The Knight begins his day with Mass and Holy Communion in the beautiful chapel Our Lady of the Angels. Mass is followed by breakfast in the newly constructed and equipped Loyola Hall. Classes are held in Marquette, Campion, or Kostka hall, while indoor recreation is provided In either of Campions ' s large gymnasiums. The evenings are spent in study either in the study halls of the underclassmen or in the private rooms of Marquette Hall. Outdoor recreation is virtually unlimited. Each division has at its disposal three football fields, six baseball diamonds, and two ice-skating rinks. The golf links are used by both Senior and Junior Divisions. Hikes off campus to the scenic bluffs which surround Campion help pass the time of a Wednesday or Saturday afternoon. Marqette Hall ■ ' m. A Campion and Loyola Halls . . . . . .

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the earth ' s sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. JOYCE KILMER adopted Campion as his alma mater because of his close associations with it faculty and student body and his admiration for the Jesuit system of education. It was at Campion that he learned to know the Catholic educational system. He wrote in a letter to Rever- end James J. Daly, S.J. : I do not say that every gradu- ate of a Catholic college is a scholar and a gentleman. But I do say that it is easier to get a real education and lead a decent life at a Catholic college than at a secular college. Indeed, I do believe that the young man who is not harmed morally, intellectually, and physically by four years at secular college, has most cruelly overworked his Guardian Angel. t«- -i- f r • ■-, '  i -f ♦ .

During his summer vacations at Campion zvhile visiting his warm friend and literary critic, Reverend James J. Daly, S. J., Kilmer meditated many of the thoughts -n-hich later flozcered into his beautiful verse. - 1 Reverexd Tikjmas J. Stemper, S. J., Campion ' s president for the past three years, is shown at right seated in his office. Father Stemper ' s wise guidance of the school ' s progress during these emergency years of wartime has won for him the deep respect and admiration of every student. i fiK :. M. B.

Below are pictured the officers who assisted in train- ing the Campion R. O. T. C. unit. Pass in Review was the command that made the band swing into one ot its best mihtary airs. Flie band, under the leadership of Mr. S. S. deRanitz and Cadet Capt. Arthur Wagener, proved one of Campion ' s finest. Drilling snappily to the terse commands of Cadet Lt. Col. Weisen- berger, the drill team of ' 45 presented a show of military discipline not equalled by many army units. The Companies . . . - d I h . ' •V • t- ' i. ' J ss xna Campion s Patron Campion is proud of its patron, Blessed Edmund Campion. Student, teacher, martyr, and gentleman were combined in this man to give us a model worthy of imitation. While attending school, Campion developed as well from his extra- curricular activities as from his studies many of the qualities that were to aid him in his future life. He was a brilliant student; and upon the comple- tion of his studies he was retained by Oxford as a master. In 1573 Campion joined the Jesuit order at Rome. After several years of teaching, he was sent as a missionary to his native England to minister to the needs of the persecuted Catholics. Campion loved danger — danger for the sake of God. Fearlessly he carried out his duties in England, but soon the inevi- table happened. He was seized and thrown into prison. After inhuman torture he was led through the streets of London to Tyburn Hill. Hanged and quartered, he died a hero of Christ on December 1, 1581. One of the finest students of his day, a gentleman to his finger-tips, cultured and refined, he will live in memory forever as a man who had unconquerable courage — courage to do what is right, though it meant his life. The extra-curricular activities at Campion help the Campion Knight of today imitate his model of yesterday. Sodalist in Action Ad Jesum per Mariam!

Reveling in the marvels of the matrial world, the Knight goes deeply into the laws and theories that gov- ern the universe. Electri- city, radio, telegraphy, and sound are all topics for experimental work in the laboratory. Laboratory technique is stressed to prepare the student for college work. Hobbies in Junior Divis- ion were under the expert guidance of the Rev. Leo A. Smith. Much new school- owned equipment w a s added to provide diversion during the long winter hours. Although some gas models were built, solid models took precedence witli the airplane bugs . .Teeps. guns, and other liandicraft were built in the spacious workroom. i«-   r— •- 13 1 KDTH 7 e Voice.

In B«u? - Tfie Campionette Ably edited by John R. Murray and William J. Miller, The Cam- pionette reported the current news of the school for the benefit of the students and parents. Faced with many obstacles such as the training of a new staff, Rev. Edward A. Thro, S.J., moderator, produced a publica- tion worthy of journalistic honors. Photographer Mockler and staff- artist Conmay enlivened the publica- tion with their high caliber workman- ship. Sports editor Edwin J. Daly was an indispensable cog in the monthly publication of the paper. Over two thousand copies ' are mailed each month to the Campionette ' s sub- scribers. This task falls to the circulation depart- ment under the direction of Edmond F. Furey. Seen at left in the fore- ground are: Cichon, Keen- ey, J. Sweeney, Crowe, Kearney, McJohn, and Halloran; in the rear: Ho- gan, Daly, Kupfer, Mul- hern, Belanger, Hyland, Somerville, and French. The Knight After a lapse of four years in pub- lication due to wartime restrictions, The Campion Knight once again makes its appearance at Campion. Moderated by Mr. William K. Schwienlier, S.J., the staff had many difficulties that had to be solved dur- ing the course of the year. Lack of film, scarcity of paper and general wartime conditions presented problems that were almost insur- mountable. The planning, editing and publishing of this book is a tribute to the complete cooperation of the staff. The staff wishes to extend its sin- cerest thanks to all those without whose help this book would have been impossible.

One picture is worth 10,000 words — so says the Chinese proverb. Campion ' s visual educa- tion under the direction of Mr. S. S. deRanitz, reached an all-time high this year in showing 80,000 feet of sound Him covering two hundred separate film topics, all strictly correlated with class work in eight different subjects. Many of the films were followed by written examinations given by the teachers. The success of the visual aid program is due to the untiring efforts of Mr. deRanitz, who is a pioneer in the field, having taught the first course in visual education at Marquette University during the summer session of 1939.

I his trophy represents the sincere gratitude for his work in building a very successful 45 team. - ' «i. - M VnflHi TY McMAHON — full- back — our fighting captain was the brains behind the team. 1 4 BOB BUSH — halfback — his punts and speed were a deciding factor towards victory. JERRY BORER— tackle — a tough, hard-hitting lineman. Lenny was feared by all opponents. GEORGE BANNAX- TINE — center — always looking forward, the grip was the hub of the attack. Captain MrMahon skirts the ends. ' ' Big Bill Kelly, power machine of the line, was always ready to stop an opponent ' s play. Many o f Campion ' s touchdowns were due to tlie accurate passing of Bob Bergey CAMPION 25 — WATERTOWN Aided by the knowledge gained in the previous defeat, the Campion eleven showed their true strength and fighting spirit by whipping a team having three wins and no losses to their credit. Beating the gun by a few seconds, the climax occurred when Bill Fitzgerald, a native of Watertown, snagged a pass in the end zone for Campion ' s last score. CAIVIPIOX 12 — EDGEWOOD 13 Backed by two glorious victories, the Redman confidently lined up for the fray, opposed by an equally confident Edge- wood team. Although the Varsity outplayed their visitors, both conversions, along with a last minute drive, failed; and thus Campion quitted the field beaten by a single point. This heart-breaking defeat proved to be the last of the year. CAMPION 7 — CENTRAL 28 Taking the field for the first time, the Hoffmen revealed their lack of experience, but also their dogged persistence and neverdie spirit. Although the defeat was decisive, the Red and Black learned their weaknesses which were soon to be obliterated by skillful coaching. Central ' s tricky aerial attack was responsible for their touchdowns, while Campion ' s lone tally was the result of a last-quarter ground- gaining blitzkrieg. CAMPION 33 — Mcdonald o Unsatisfied with the sound beating administered to Watertown. the Knights, chalked up five touchdowns, rolled over a scrappy McDonald eleven for their second win of the season. The highlight of the contest was an interception by 220 lb. Jack Mooney, who surely, but oh how slowly, carried the pigskin across. IrrrJ t .J-  CAMPION 47 — LOGAN The team, recovering from its defeat administeredd by Edgewood, and with a close margin victory at Platteville, gained full strength to face Logan of La Crosse. Supposedly a powerful team, Logan was soon dynamited by the ex- plosive Campion aerial attack. Ray Schlaff and Joe Fabick used their glue fingers to good advavntage by catching and intercepting passes for touchdowns CAMPION 7 — LORAS 6 Snow disrupted Campion ' s great passing attack in the final contest staged before a Thanksgiving Day crowd, and the third quarter found the Redmen scoreless, trailing Loras by six points. Fighting harder than ever before, the team steadily plunged down the gridiron. Hitting the line with tremendous power. Bob Bush struck pay dirt . With equal ferocity, Ray Schlaflf broke through left tackle to clinch the final victory in a very successful season. % f • •f First String Bottom row: Second row: Third row: Top row: Kraman. Ciidahy.

MOSQUITOES Attacking with a deceptive combination of box and T-formation plays, the 1944 Mosquitoes became a championship team! Victory was due to teamwork, eager love of the game, and to the excellent job on the part of Jack Becker and George French, assistant coaches. MIDGETS Under the capable coaching of Fr. J. Murphy, the Midgets put in a successful season. Captain Rose led the offensive at- tacks and was the passing genius of the team. Brains of the squad were supplied by Hessburg at quarterback, and Tom Bush held up center. Intramurals . . . Mr. Kochanski, shown at left, presenting trophies to intramural captains of winning teams: Gene Kelly, Earl Matre, and Dick Coppin. Name a sport and we played it here at Campion. The intramural program this year was more active and successful than in any previous year because of careful organization of the teams according to weight and ability. Mr. Kochanski, the moderator and organizer, deserves much credit for liis untiring efforts in making the recreational program include every student in senior division. Credit likewise is due to the individual captains wiio kept the cogs of the machinery moving. Reading clockwise from bottom: Copt. Skpll, Bergey, Gorman, Snyd ' ers, and i: Rose.

' ' 1 «| V% % f «| f. if Varsity Basketeers Coach Hoffman faced a doubtful future on the basketball court this season, returning from the previous year with only one letter man, Dick Ennen. In a few pre-Christmas contests, all of which were successful for Campion, the Coach carefully picked his best five men who are pictured above in huddle. Russ Skall, a Cee Jay veteran of two years, attained the coveted position of captain, and his deceptive passing, plus his spakling defensive play, proved invaluable to the team. Gene Rose, also a new first- stringer, handled both forward and guard positions with great dexterity. He also acquired the habit of saving games in the last few seconds of play. Bob Bergey ' s expert dribbling and ball handling placed him as a regular from the first day of practice. His aggressiveness and spirit were a valu- able asset to the team. The important pivot man was lanky Ed Gorman whose tricky passing could fool any team. Snyders and Meganck, shotmakers supreme , shared the left forward spot throughout the season. Other lettermen were Bob Azar, Dick Ennen, and Joe Stoeckinger, all of whom contributed much toward the team ' s victories. ■ ■■■ ■ I w Campion Cagers . • m The winning ■point ' . . . .

Games were begun as soon as the Knights returned from their winter vacation and were carried through until the latter part of March. Following the completion of the season, a school tournament was held to determine the best five players of Campion. Interest in the schedule of games was held high due to the fact that no teams were separated by a margin of more than two games. The leagues were under the direction of Mr. C. T. Shinners, S. J. Gold trophies were awarded to the winning captains while each of the players on his team was presented with a gold key-chain basketball.

Backed by the enthusiasm of returning members of the ' 44 team, Campion speedsters inaugurated a season which showed traditional Cam- pion might and prowess. Bob Bush, Phil Welsenberger, John McMahon, and Stan Grigsby formed a dash group and relay team which was difficult to defeat. Dave Doyle, Bob Majewski, John Rhomberg, and Tom Power used their talent to balance the strength of the team.
