lllllllliillllf honors these three men for Iheil Rev. Paul J. Murphy, S.J. Witty, generous, charitable Father Murphy can point to a varied, interesting lite. Born Jan. 14, 1899 at St. Louis, Mo., he served as a Sgt. Maior in France in Campion and the '60 Knight are happy to memorialize the ioyful anniversary of two fac- ulty members and to offer them the heartiest congratulations: Father Murphy for 25 years of service to Campion as Treas- urer, and Diamond Jubilarian Father Siebauer for his 60 years as a Jesuit, 29 of which were spent at Campion as teacher, historian, and guest-master. May God reward these men richly and grant them many more years of healthful, happy, pro- ductive service to Campion. V Rev. Augustine F. Siebauer, S..I World War I. Atter the War, he attended night school at St. Louis University College ot Commerce and Finance for three years while working during the day. Deciding to be a Jesuit, he crammed a four-year Latin course into a year and a halt and entered the Society of Jesus Sept. 2, 1923 at Florissant, Mo. As a scholas- tic, he taught at St. Mary's College, the Kansas board- ing school made famous in the novels ot Father Finn. He was ordained a Jesuit priest in 1934 and came to Campion in 1935. Besides his demanding work as Treasurer, he does the great service of arranging train and plane tickets and schedules for every student at Christmas, Easter, and May. This iovial community man is both an avid sports tan and a golfer, bowler, and duck hunter of considerable ability. Probably one ot the best known and most respected Jesuits in the Midwest is Father Siebauer. His warm personality and glowing smile have won many lasting friends. So began the Campionette article on his Diamond Jubilee, Father was born in Mankato, Minn., Oct. 18, 1880. By private tutoring he learned Math- ematics and Latin and Greek. He became a Jesuit in Cleveland Sept. 4, 1899. Then began a full career. He studied philosophy at Campion from 1903-1906, taught in Toledo till 1911, studied theology in St. Louis till 1915, and was ordained there June 26, 1914. From 1916-1927 he taught at Marquette High in Mil- waukee, then at St. Ignatius High, Cleveland, for two years, and at St. Louis U. High tor another two till coming to Campion in 1931 to teach history. He stop- ped teaching in 1955 but keeps busy as tutor, archivist, and campus-tour director. His keen memory and friend- liness have endeared him to thousands ot students. 16 Mutual congratulations to two worthy sons of St. Ignatius

excellent achievement Five years ago Father Corrigan arrived from St. Louis Un'versity High where he was principal to become the l6th President of Campion. In those five years, two of which were spent both as president and principal, he has left a remarkable record of achievement. This achievement is especially in the academic, financial, physical, and athletic phases of Campion life. ln the academic area, Father inaugurated a more strict ad- mission policy and created The Bl, Edmund Campion Scholarships worth Sl,50O and Sl,0OO to be awarded the two top eighth graders scoring in the entrance exam. ln the necessary financial sphere, he took the initiative to raise funds for Lucey Hall, started the Dollar a Month Club at the Mothers' Club suggestion, and created a progressive program of giving for campus improvements. Father's influence, however, is most noticeable in the physical appearance of the campus. He drew up a long-range campus plan, whose first phase was modern Lucey Hall with its trim roadway and the powerhouse addition for heating future build- ings. Phase Two is Hoffman Athletic Field, the new varsity football and baseball fields recently graded south of the golf course. Next Fall varsity track and intramural fields will be completed here. Phase Three is a swimming pool and locker-room building for which plans are being drawn now. Other improvements were the plastering and redecorating of the Students' Chapel, installation of a PA system, and construction of a large ski-run at the bluffs. Father aided athletics by providing new football, basketball, and track uniforms and com- petition for golf and tennis teams. That he has so ably accomplished his goal, the Campion of the future, deserves the gratitude of faculty, students, and parents and this special honor the Knight here bestows. May 3, 1958: Fr. Corrigan breaks ground for new hall. The Rev. James B. Corrigan, S.J., President of Campion A year and a new name later - the happy result 17
