Senior Class Y various routes the fifteen members of the Class of 1948 have arrived at the threshold of graduation day. Hailing from points as far East as Boston, as far West as San Francisco, but mostly from Montana, the graduates found their college life and training interrupted by such things as service in the Army, Navy, and even the Army Nursing Corps. But now that their senior year has been completed, the graduates plan their work along very definite lines. Most of them will enter Medical schools or schools for other graduate work, while several members of the class will enter the Major Seminary to continue their studies for the holy priesthood. The past year has been a busy one for the graduates. Now. however, the Class of 1948 can breathe sighs of relief, for another milestone in their lives has been passed, and they can look with confidence upon the larger fields to conquer which the future holds out to them.

Student Council ' Representing the largest civilian enrollment in the history of the college, the Carroll Student Council completed a busy year in promoting social, recreational and other extra-curricular activities. Among the achievements of the council in 1947-48 were several successful formal and informal dances: the insuring of the varsity basketball squad; the sponsoring of a series of entertaining assemblies; the procuring of several motion pictures, and the purchase of medals for excellence in the intramural tourneys in various sports. Under the direction of its Moderator, Father James R. DeGroat, council members assisted in the programs of the National Federation of Catholic College Students. Two relief collections for students of war-stricken areas were taken up and twenty-one CARE packages were sent to needy families in Europe. Dr. Penrose Radley addresses Pre-Mcd meeting at K. of C. Hall Father Murray speaks at the Pre-Med Banquet. Science will rejoice iC ITH its roster showing almost 100 students elgible for membership because of their pre-medical or pre-dental courses, or their Chemistry and Bacteriology majors, the Pre-Med Club continues to be the largest campus organization. At meetings this year educational films were brought before the club members. Dr. Radley. Helena dentist and Carroll alumnus, spoke to the club on the matter of choosing and entering professional schools. The annual Pre-Med Banquet and Ball was again this year one of the most outstanding events of the Spring social season. First Row: Rev. Patrick Murray, moderator; Anthony Schenone, Dominic Ferrando.

Mackin. in the Borromeo Club. Weekly meetings and monthly holy hours gave the members the opportunity to take time out from their other college affairs to think and to pray about the vocation they hope to follow. Highpoint in the year's activities was a visit from His Excellency, the Most Reverend Joseph M. Gilmore. Bishop of Helena. The annual Spring picnic on Ascension Thursday topped off a year which saw the club members prominent, as usual, in extra-curricular activities.

The debaters took part in several intramural debates in the College Auditorium and participated in tournaments with the State University, Montana State College, and the School of Mines. Highlights of the season's meets were an Invitational Tourney held at Carroll in March, in which the schools mentioned above took part, and the Northwest Invitational Tournament in Missoula in which twenty-two colleges and universities participated. The club's activities came to a close with a radio debate against the University of Montana on May 8, over the facilities of the Z Net.

Some go for letters VJ HE ranks of the Monogram Club were increased this year as seventeen men were awarded letters for football, and eight were given letters for basketball. Presentation of football sweaters was made during the half-time of the North Montana basketball game in the Carroll Gymnasium on January 10. The sweaters were presented by the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Emmet J. Riley, president of the college. Basketball lettermen were announced in early Spring and presentation of basketball sweaters took place late in the school year. Of the twenty-five lettermen for 1947-48, only five were holders of letters from previous years. The sophomore class has the largest number of students in this year's monogram group, with nine representatives. Seniors hold a close second with seven, while juniors and freshmen claim three and six letters respectively. In conection with the Monogram Club mention should be made of the banquet sponsored by the Carroll alumni in Butte for the entire varsity football squad on the occasion of the Carroll-Mines football game in Butt© last Fall. O'lS Its name implies, the Beaux Arts Society is an organization for those students who are interested in extra-curricular discusion of the fine arts. For its theme this year, the Society selected world literature. Each member presented a paper on some author or work of his own choice which met with the approval of the other members of the Society. Among the topics discussed were: The Poetry of Father Charles L. O'Donnell. C.S.C.. Boethius. Plautus.” The Evolution of the Modern Detective Story. Belloc. and The Works of Francis Thompson. Two discussion meetings were set aside for talks on Painting and the Old Masters. and Art and Art Criticism. Father R.V. Kavanagh, moderator for the Society, has done much to supplement the re search of club members with comments and additions from his own notes. This has been the first year of activity for the Beaux Arts Society since the war, but the year has been a busy and successful one for club members, who hope for a greater membership next year. . . . others for the arts Members of the Beaux Arts Society examine un Illustrated manuscript.

NCE again this year, musically-minded students did much to contribute to the life of the college. The Glee Club, under the direction of Father Edward Moran, continued its record of fine musical entertainment at assembly time and during the program following the Christmas Banquet. The Glee Club also took part in a special program of entertainment presented during an Easter Season party for Catholic young people in the Cathedral auditorium. The College Band, organized this year under the direction of Father James R. DeGroat and the leadership of James Ryan, provided music at most of the basketball games and livened things up considerably with its peppy reper- tjiMint- (illlii'H acoomiuuilcK Audrey Wilbur In n mtlcction. toire. In addition to supplying members for the Band, the Nursing students organized a septet. They sang at assemblies and at half-times during the football season.

Hold that pose! SjjHE Camera Club was organized rather late in the year, due to the lack of darkroom facilities, but a new darkroom on the fourth floor was opened in March and the Camera Club got under way. Emmett O'Leary, senior student and experienced photographer, addressed the club members on two occassions on photographic techniques and demonstrated just how they could get the best service from their equipment. The darkroom facilities were put to heavy use by the yearbook photographers, but the club members were able to get in the dark a little themselves. In fact, during May, the club sponsored a picture contest to encourage students in the more effective use of their cameras. Photographer waiting for aomethlng to develop. HE Astronomy Club, allhough organized rather late in the year, has achieved quite a bit in its few short weeks of activity. Members have scanned the heavens and shot star after star, and listened to talks on Astronomy and astronomical instruments.

An assembly period on Friday morning was set aside when the weekly schedule was drawn up and it was frequently filled with entertaining and instructive programs. On the lighter side, the girls from Im-maculata Hall, the Pre-Med Club, and Jack (Homer) Howes and the Cheer Leaders worked hard to provide laughs. Several other students pitched in to present demonstrations of magic, harmonious and original singing, and various other programs that served as welcome diversions. • Magic going to town.

That old time tradition 0N November 4, the College took time off to honor its patron. St. Charles Borromeo, in a style traditional at Carroll, but which had been interrupted during the years of war. The day began with Solemn Mass coram Episcopo in the Cathedral of Saint Helena, at which Fr. Joseph Oblinger, Chancellor of the diocese and Carroll alumnus, traced the life and achievements of St. Charles. The afternoon saw a revival of the traditional Upperclass-Lowerclass Football Game which ended in a six to nothing win for the old men of the Upperclasses. The day ended with an extra-special meal in revival, as far as crowded conditions would allow, of the St. Charles’ Day Banquets of old. ••NN KRCLASS TEAM: Front « rthur l ce. Tom McMahon. ......

The day was topped off by a come-as-you-are dance in the Gym, at which the gyrations of the Student Body gave little or no indication that the day had been tiring, or anything but highly invigorating.

November 9. when their most bitter conference rivals, the Montana School of Mines, sent them down to a 6-0 defeat on a blizzard-swept turf at Naranche stadium in Butte. Carroll outgained and outcharged the Miners, but a second quarter touchdown, their first of the season, gave the Orediggers their only victory and shoved them into a tie for the conference basement with the Saints. Again it was the Saints’ old trouble of failing to capitalize on opportunities that sent them to defeat. The Hilltoppors had a 3-to-l edge in yardage gained, but five times failed to cross the payoff stripe after getting inside their opponents’ ten-yard line.

Coach Russ Freel's outfit started the season slowly, but rose to supreme heights late in the season, reaching their high point with a pair of decisive wins over their most bitter conference rivals, the Montana School of Mines. Their only sojurn outside of the conference brought the Saints three victories in four tries against the Great Falls College of Education, their other non-conference loss being a mid-season defeat at the hands of the School of Mines.

HOW MONTANA GREW UP Montana’s history may be divided into three distinct periods — fur trapping and trading era, gold mining era, and the modern era which welded all the early beginnings of industry, trade and commerce into the complex structure that now characterizes the Treasure State and its assets. The fur trading era which introduced the early settlement of Montana lasted from 1808 to 1850 when trappers and traders roamed the wild country, securing valuable pelts and furs and bartered with the Indians. The gold mining era had its beginning at Gold Creek. 20 miles west of Deer Lodge in 1852, when gold was found by a Scotch half-breed named Francois Finley. In 1858 James and Granville Stuart arrived at Gold Creek to start practical development of the state’s gold resources and from then on names such as Grasshopper Creek. Bannack. Alder Gulch, Virginia City, Last Chance Gulch (Helena), Butte and others figured in the mining history. By the 1860’s, mining—and the commercial enterprises it was bound to induce had started Montana’s flight to a place in the Union, and the state's growth, commercially and industrially, was substantiality aided by a good start in livestock in the ’70’s, with the coming of the railroads in the ’80’s, followed by wide-spread use of lands for agricultural purposes. All were factors in establishing the modern era.
