IL A WV g C IH D D The CARDINAL I936 74 The School Of Law TJE OPENING OF THE 1935-36 academic year marked the beginning of the fortieth year of the Law Schools existence. The Law School is a member of the Association of American Law Schools, and has the approVal of the American Bar Association. This affiliation determines largely the standards to be maintained by the administration and faculty of the school. The small classes in the Law School furnish the student with ample opportunity for personal contact with his professors which is a desirable factor in the process of education. The work of the full-time professors and faculty members is supplemented by part-time specialists. The training and experience of these men give them a rating which places the School of Law in the front rank of Law Schools throughout the country. The subjects of Labor Law, Administrative Law, Constitutional Law, Air Law and others, are taught in the light of changing conditions in modern society and improved legal procedures. Legal ethics and jurisprudence are given special emphasis. With the installation at the University several years ago of a Chapter of Gamma Eta Gamma, a National Honorary Legal Fraternity, further im- petus to study, contact with leaders in the field of law, and the creation of that itlegal atmosphere at social gatherings were effected. Law clubs for the preparation and trying of selected cases were organized last year, and are the means of giving the students valuable experience in this phase of legal education.

It is, indeed, hard to say which has benefitted more since its advent, Catholic University, or the Class. Originality, initiative and School Spirit upar excel- lence are characteristic of the Class and have gained for ,37 its lofty reputation. School spirit is by far the outstanding Virtue of the group. The very first year saw this Class of ,37, in the despised role of Freshmen, break down a hitherto sacred Tradition when they decisively drubbed the Sophomores in the annual Tugvolwar. That event inaugurated the new C.U. spirit. Next, the aspiring Yearlings in January of 1934 entertained the Trin- ity Lassies of 137 at a Tea Dance held in the foyer of the Library. Not satisfied with achievement in athletic and social fields, the class set about the business of electing Freshmen Presidents for the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of En- gineering, which resulted in a display of rare dis- cernment and foresight. Ed Egan and Charlie john- son were elected in their respective groups. Politics, however, crept into class matters. It played its part in the Sophomore elections, but the sting and bitterness which so often accompany it were happily absent. Neil Murphy and Joe Parkhill sup- planted Egan and Johnson in office. Peace and hate mony was uninterrupted. The athletes who had exhibited great promise in the Freshmen year, blos- somed forth and the football, boxing and basket- ball teams of the University enjoyed phenomenal success. The scholars of the Class, headed by Spitzig, Dugan, Baker and a host of others, clearly demon- strated their merit. Election time rolled around again. Neil Murphy received the honor a second time, guid- ing the Arts and Science group while the Engineer- ing Division reappointed Charlie Johnson, their Freshmen president, to pilot them during the Jun- ior Year. Thus the Class of '37 approaches the end of its Junior Year. The words Catholic University have become part of its members. They love it, they are proud of it, and they intend to leave no stone un- turned in their efforts in behalf of its best interests. TiNext yearts another year, loaded with possibilities and the Class of 1937 plans to TiCarry On. SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES NEIL F. MURPHY ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Prexidem ROBERT A. MAKOFSKE ..........

With udinks on our heads and trunks in our hands, we, members of the class of 1938, were a very bewildered group shortly after matriculation at the university. In December we were ohicially recog- nized and held our first class elections. In the Arts and Science group, Fred Mix was elected President, and John P. Walsh was made head in the Engineer- ing division. Seventeen members of the class were pledged to Phi Eta Sigma, 21 national scholastic honorary society of which Francis Guinan was elected Presi- dent. Social activities of the university found us ac- tive participants, to say nothing of the activities sponsored by our friends around the bend. Now we of 1938 are sophisticated sophomores. We have tasted the bitter and sweet of college life. On the athletic held many Sophomores have im- portant positions on varsity teams. Carroll and Walk- Treatmer EUGENE DRALEY er ran wild in the backfield of C. U,s. Orange Bowl Champs, while Chludenski, Rydzewski, Sochon and Katalinas played an important part in the forward wall. Among the leather pushers, the members of the class of 1938 formed the backbone of the squad with Greco, Mix, Katalinas Rydzewski and Guinan holding down regular posts. Walker and Gottredi were active participants in collegiate track meets and scored many points for C. U. The class revived the traditional Sophomore Tea Dance and added to tradition a Sophomore victory over the Frosh in the annual tug-o-war. Our history is but two years old. Already we have achieved many things and gained much fame. Our future remains to be seen, but When our commence- ment day arrives we are sure that it will be said of the men of 1938, that they were one of the greatest classes to leave the portals of Catholic University.

Leaders were in abundance and we quickly assumed the proportions of a well organized groupethe class of 1959. The upper-classmen say that we are boisterous, but they are prejudiced. Of course we make noise, but it is all good fun. Already we have had many enjoyable times that shall ever be among our most cherished memories.

Here, again, good clean fun pre- vailed although somewhat muddy. Our history is in the making. We have the work- ers and the material. The hnished product can only be one of greatness.

MCDONALD ............................Claaimzmz Under the leadership of John H. McDonald, the Student Council has plowed its way through another scholastic year. Adhering to the traditions and policies of the University it fulfilled its important functions with as little of the spectacular as pos- sible. The inauguration of a homecoming dance to replace the annual bonfire was its contributiOn to university traditions. If there has been anything more than usual success as regards the functions which came under its supervision, such added success is due to the splendid spirit of cooperation of its members. In all matters which have come before it and in discharging its every duty, the welfare of the student-body and the university has been the first consideration of the Council. The CARDINAL I936 Student Spiritual Council JAMES P. REING ................................ Chairman Selecting its members from students living in the various dormitories, the Spiritual Council has worked in conjunction with the University Chaplin, Rev. Dr. George B. Stratemeir, O. P. Keeping in mind that it was to be practical, the Council devoted its efforts to the promotion of those religious exercises which appealed most to the students of the University. The work was apportioned among a number of committees, each of which had a chairman and a secretary. Outstanding work was done by the group which acted as the agents of the Saint Vincent DePaul Society. In what was, perhaps, the largest undertaking of the year, the COuncil sponsored the annual May Day Celebration which brought together all the Catholic Students of the District of Columbia to pay homage to Mary, Queen of Heaven.

The Class of 1936 set a precedent and elected two General Co-chairmen. These men are directly responsible for the carrying out of the duties of the various committees. Under their direction are the chairmen and committeemen of each individual Com- mittee. Thereby work is divided and no one man is called on to do more than his share. 94 The CARDINAL I936 Inter-Club Council JAMES E. TOOMEY . . . . . . ........... . .............. Serretm'y At the first meeting of the Inter-Club Council the members elected James Toomey to the ofiice of Secretary. After the election theyplans for the year were outlined. They consisted of regulating the different problems arising among the clubs on the campus. The bidding of new members to each club is regulated by this organization. A new form of regulating flnancialtmatters was introduced and approved by the members. In one of the later meetings plans for an Inter - Club Dance were discussed. The dance is an annual affair which is sponsored by the Council. This function is usually held during the month of May. ' ' i Pint Row: Keeley, Boyland, Bresnahan, Morrisey, Johnson.

Approved by the authorities of the University and recognized by the Inter-club Council, the organization was formed. The Right Reverend Rector appointed Rev. Speer Strahan as Moderator, and at a meeting early in 1935 the men through whose efforts the idea had become a reality, were unanimously elected to the major offices, namely: Henry C. Rexach, President; William L. Hechmer, Vice-President; Joseph A. Dugan, Secretary; and Joseph D. Lix, Treasurer. The Cave Dwellers have merited the confidence placed in them. Represented on The Tower, The CARDINAL, and in various other extra-curricu- lar activities such as the Glee Club and the University Band, they have shown a public- spirited interest in the Catholic University affairs.

Omega Chapter was for- merly the Dod Noon Club which was admitted into the Phi Kappa Fraternity upon obtaining a house on the campus. Phi Kappa was founded at Brown University in 1889 and since then twenty-four active chapters and eighteen alumni chapters have been added, making it the most powerful Catholic fraternity in the country. At present there are thirty-one members in Phi Kappa, ten seniors, eleven juniors and ten sophomores. Of these thirty-one, twenty-one are residents of the house, the requirement being that a member must be a junior or senior in order to live in the house. The members of Omega Chapter are prominent in all fields of extra curricular activity at the University. The CARDINAL I936 Senators Club VERY REV. EDWARD G. FITZGERALD, O.P., PH.D.

Recording Secretary In the year 1923, the day-students of the city of Washington attending the uni- versity were inspired by the various other clubs then in existence on the campus to undertake something of the sort for themselveseto organize the day-students into a stronger and more active body. With this in mind, the founders drew up plans for the creation of the club. The first meeting was held in September, 1924. Upon installa- tion of the oHicers the club adopted the name of Senators Club. Each year the club gives many social functions, the most noteworthy being its annual Thanksgiving Day Dance, its Tea Dance, its Smoker, and its Installation Banquet in June. These functions, as well as all others, have always been huge successes. The true spirit of its first members has been continuous and to-day we have the Senators Club, a body of fine students, flne fellows, and flne university men. Fin; Row.

The charter membership con- sisted of twenty-five members. The club is rich in tradition. These traditions include the annual Utopian Ball, the Senior Banquet and a democratic spirit which was not restricted to the club itself but rather extended to the University at large. The Utopian ideals and aims are summed up in the two ideas, namely, Loyalty and Service. Since the Clubis inauguration, its members have taken a deep interest in extra curricular activities and they have taken prominent parts in every phase of University life. The promotion of the best interests of the University and of the student body has always been the unselfish motive behind their activities.

Secretary At the beginning of the scholastic year the members of the dramatic organization fully realized the diihcult task that lay before them if they were to succeed in staging a production that would measure up to the standard set by uJourney's End and uThe Three Wise Fools . After several months of procrastination and disorganization the club fmally swung into action under President Zeke Brown. For the first time in the history of dramatics at the University, the Harlequins recruited the talented services of several members of the Dramatic Club of Trinity College and in May presented George Kellys three act comedy The Show Off . The play was well directed, well acted, and well received by a most appreciative audience. The initial production under the combined efforts of the two schools seems to have laid a solid foundation for great dramatic productions of the future. First Row: Angers, Brown, Thralls.

Dave James set Out to change the heretofore mathematical exactness of umake up. Succeeding in this, he then turned' his efforts to the substantive side of campus journalism. Great stress was placed upon the interest of the readers. Numerous compliments were showered upon the editorial style in which a diver- sity of campus affairs was discussed. Appreciation was also expressed for the intro- duction of Music of the Tower , uBridge and several current events columns. Scoops became a habit rather than oddities as a result of breaks made in the football schedule and, in particular, the Orange Bowl game. The Tower scooped the down town papers on the Bowl game by several hours. The extra edition was issued on a Thursday evening while the news was not published in the Washington papers until the following morning. 'Home-coming was marked by a six page edition featur- ing reprints of outstanding articles printed in the Towers of former years. Perhaps the greatest tribute that has been paid to this student undertaking was made by a well known professor when he said, On Thursday evening the C.

The members of the society have the opportunity of meeting engineers in the fields of their interest, and through them have the chance to establish contact which is of value to the young engineer. In the spring of the year, sectional meetings are held at colleges throughout the country. At these meetings representatives from about fourteen or fifteen colleges deliver papers on engineering subjects and compete for prizes.

This year has been one of particular activity for the organization. Besides con- tributing the regular design projects to the Beaux-Arts Institute of Design in New York City, the Architectural students prepared the United States portion of the world- wide exhibition of the Catholic Press to be held in the Vatican City during the summer of 1936. By this commission the school is especially honoured because in nearly every other country in the world the work has been entrusted to registered architects only. The Alumni of the Society sponsored two dances in the past year both of which were welcomed by the undergraduates and proved to be most enjoyable anairs. Fin!

Besides its usual intercollegiate activity, the Shahan Debating Society inaugurated a plan whereby young and inexperienced speakers were afforded an opportunity of speaking before an audience, by conducting round-table discussions of the topics of current interest. This plan furnished an opportunity for self-expression and supplied many clever arguments which were later used in varsity debates. The suc- cess of this dual plan of activity was evidenced by a greatly increased interest and attendance in meetings of the society as well as in intercollegiate contests. The traditional schedule, Loyola, Dayton, Manhattan, West Virginia, besides many notable new opponents, such as Yale, Emory and Henry, and Upsala furnished the opportunity whereby the Shahan intercollegiate pleaders maintained the high standard of accomplishment set by the Catholic U.

BERGMAN Director of Athletic: Catholic University,s greatest athletic achievement was attained during the past year when its football team was signaled out by the city of Miami to represent the North in the annual New Year,s Day Orange Bowl Classic; and the subsequent victory in Miami culminated the most successful season which the University has known since it first recog- nized the substantial contribution of inter collegiate competition in athletics towards the moral, mental and physical development of the young men of America. The success of the football team set a stand- ard for the boxing and basketball teams, which, though it was very high, was more than lived up to. The growing popularity of these latter sports is'ia hdirect result of the suc- cess of their respective teams. The re-instate- ment of baseball as a minor sport at the Uni- versity, and the unprecedented popularity of the intramural leagues during the past year are the two final factors which have gone into the making of a banner year for the Athletic Department. No little credit should be given to the coaching personnel and the other assistants connected with the Athletic Department. The spirit of these men along with that shown by the players themselves and the entire student body, and their cooperation in supporting both intramural and intercollegiate athletics have been, more than anything else, responsi- ble for the success of the work undertaken by the department this year. Second only to the development of the stu- dents, the most desired for result of any ath- letic program is the development of a power- ful and influential body of Alumni. We have spared no effort during the past year in work- ing for this end in the firm belief that the alumni of our institution, if properly organ- ized and fully active, will be an important factor in the future development of the Uni- versity. One of the ways to insure their organiza- tion and support is through a successfully arranged and executed athletic program. DOC. CLARKE DORSEY GRIFFITH EDDIE LA FOND His biggest job is teaching boxers the fine points of the game. The success of his teams over well known schools has aroused the interest of Washington fans and was instrumental in legalizing boxing in the District two years a o. gHe spends the test of his time in coaching the frosh football team and in supervising the branch of student athletics known as intramurals. DOC. CLARKE Smiling Jacki, Clarke is probably C.U.is most ardent rooter for the restoration of varsity baseball at the Univer- sity. Watch him smile when his frosh basketball team is winning. He is a hard taskmaster teaching basketball fundamentals to the first year men but his course is rich in dividends. Watch his llproteges on the varsity team perform. We pay tribute to Jack's unsung ability. DORSEY GRIFFITH A champion for a great cause. You'll find him a famil- iar figure on the track, smoking a stump of a cigar, call- ing out to his tracksters to pump those arms. He won his letter in track when C.U.'s fame and renown on the cinder tracks was at its height. His experience is now directing C.U. to its former heights on the track and field.

VINNIE FRAATZ Equally valuable as an assistant coach was Vinnie Fraatz. A great end himself, he devoted his time in tutoring the CU. ends.

A Tribute to the Cheering Section Organized cheering is something distinctive in school sports. Professional athletics cannot give it to the spectators. And the spectators have learned to look for it in inter- collegiate games of all kinds. They thrill to it as it rolls into them either through their radios or across the fields or halls where they actually view the sports. They are dis- appointed when they do not find organized cheering. They criticize the campus life and the school that fails to produce it. Organized cheering helps the school. It creates school spirit, hard to define but very essential to the success of educational institutions. It arouses enthusiasm for the development of athletics, a vital factor in all collegiate and university life. It keeps school unity by arousing in each student a sense of responsibility to the common in- terests of the campus. It keeps school unity by mobilizing the boys on the teams, student spectators and the teaching personnel around a cause which all understand and it gives them a language which all can speak and comprehend. It is an important factor for the creation, on the campus, of the democratic spirit which education in this nation must produce. Organized cheering helps the individual student who gives himself heart and soul to this duty. I call it a student duty, an obligation based on honor and humanity. Who, that is honorable and humane can enjoy idleness when others slave and toil. Who, that is honorable and humane can lock up his encouragement, his support and his en- thusiasm when his fellow students are pouring their bodies and souls in an effort for the glory of the school. Organized cheering coordinates the student spectators and professors with the student athletes and merges all in a comman drive for Alma Mater. It disciplines enthusiasm by subjecting it to cheer leaders. It organizes loyalty by focus- ing it on moments of the game when the team needs help most. It suppresses ill will by demanding applause for friend and foe. It teaches the spectator how to lose with grace and to support heroic effort even though it result in defeat. These are valuable lessons which a student at college must learn if college education is worth while. They are lessons which the cheering section is always teaching and which the class room frequently must pass by. This organized cheering can help to send our students out with the happy memory that at least on some occasion, at some games, they gave their all for thevcause. Organized cheering helps the teams. It is more than an extra player on the squad. It is an invisible force, an intangible power, a compelling plea from the roaring and organized fellowmen in the stands imploring the boys on the team to do just a little more, praying that they will rise to heroic effort, assuring them that even in defeat their trying is appreciated and their sorrow is shared. Organized cheering from the fans reacts on each man. Consciously or subconsciously each player is aware of its power. It sharpens his mind to think more quickly and to sense chances for victory more read- ily. It fires his soul with a will to try. It tells him of the expectations and hopes of the stands and he whips himself into real effort. He unleashes the reserve power that makes heroes out of men that seem to be ordinary, and which makes crashing, crunching chariots of victory out of cripples cringing on the verge of defeat. For the man on the squad who has given his all for his school, even in defeat the sting of failure is eased by the realization that his grief is shared by the cheering crowds who stood with him. The modest and honest team knows that in its triumphs it has not only given to but has received power from the organized cheering student body.

A brilliant season counting seven victories and one defeat came to a glorious climax when the Redbirds were chosen to represent the North in the annaul New Years Day Orange Bowl game in Miami, Florida to meet the strong Mississippi University team. It was in this game that Catholic University ushered in a new era in its athletic history when it swept to a thrilling 20-19 victory over the Ole Miss pigskin forces. Twelve thousand spectators thrilled to the scintillating battle that saw the Northern eleven not only conquer Ole Miss but also beat a blazing tropical sun that threatentd to turn the tide of battle to the South- erners in the late stages of the game. The Cardinals had piled up an early lead and were comfortably in advance for three periods of the contest. However, as the final quarter progressed the hot Miami sun left the CU. forwards and secondary gasping for breath and literally out on their feet, while the Ole Miss lads were coming back with a renewed Vigor that came very near felling the Washingtonians. Catholic University scored three touchdowns during the contest and all on entirely different methods of play. A slashing ground drive, a per- fectly executed forward pass and a blocked kick which Ferdie Rydzewski scooped up and scampered over the goal line, were the avenues of scor- ing employed by the Cardinals. However, in addition to the three touch- downs marked up by the CU. men there were also two points after that were scored by the talented toes of George Mulligan and Bob Makofske and it was this pair of pOints that gave the Red and Black its well-deserved margin of victory. Among the teams that fell before the onslaught of the Redbird machine during the regular season are listed those that represent the finest in their sections of the country. Those elevens were La Salle, Du- quesne, Detroit, St. Marys of Texas, West Virginia Wesleyan, Western Maryland, and North Carolina State. The lone defeat came at the hands of the Blue Demons of De Paul in Chicago, when flve C.U. regulars CAPT. EDWIN KARPOWICH l2l The CARDINAL I936 were shelved with injuries and, as a result, the Demons came out on top by a score of 9-6. Before going into each game individually, it is fitting that tribute be paid to the unheralded five of football, the linesmen. The backs and even the ends are regularly glorined by the sports writers, but sel- dom are these forward wall workers applauded. They are the ones who pave the way for touchdowns by opening holes and removing would-be tacklers. Last year C.U. lost Captain llTruck Conter, All-District tackle and Danny Payne, star guard. Their positions were more than ably tilled by Colonel Clements of the Virginia Clements, and Smokey Joe Antonavage, All-District guard this season. The other members of the forward wall were Willie Lajousky of whom little was written but who did much in his position; Cap- tain Karpowich, another All-District selection, who inspired his team to the heights they reached; and Joe Yanchulis, who for two years has served his center job faultlessly. Naturally, stress is placed on those . who have formed the first team but it would be unfair to pass by those ready and eager to step in when reserves were needed. Every man on the squad, whether first string or not, gave his best when called on; that is all that can be asked of anyone. We salute the CU. line-a veritable Rock of Gibraltar. The first team to fall before the Flying Cardinals was La Salle. Com- ing to the Capital with a team boasting of 13 consecutive victories, the last defeat being administered two years previously by the Cardinals, the La Salle outfit saw goal after goal made upon them and, in addi- tion, 5 extra points out of six attempts, to boost the score of 41-7. Thus C.U. inaugurated its history-making football year. The following Friday evening found the Brooklanders in Duquesne wallowing in a field of mud under skies that dripped with rain and snow. With Bill Adamaitis the spearhead of the attack, C.U. ran and passed seventy yards in nine plays to score the only points of the game which ended 6-0. Makofske's great kicks from behind the goal line more than PETER DRANGINIS once repelled the threats of the Pittsburghers. The CARDINAL I936. The subsequent week iiDutch Bergman's charges met the powerful Titans 'of Detroit University out in the Auto city in a game that packed more thrills than any story book ever written. The Brookland lads scored two touchdowns in two minutes of closing play to change what appeared certain defeat into glorious VictoryeIS t0 7. It was in this game that Mulligants brilliant play gave him nomination for All- American. It was in this game that Schmarr uttered those famous three little words, Gimme the ball, which signalled the lateral pass from Mulligan to co mplete the touchdown play that left the spectators gasping at the suddenness of Detroitis defeat. Next came St. Mary's of San Antonio, Texas, who came up and gave the CU. eleven a tough battle down in Griffith Stadium. Led by Jumping Doug Locke, the Rattlers kept the Cardinals in hot water most of the second half and it was due to the supre me work of the forward wall which stemmed a late rally on the five yard line, that the game was saved from ending in a ' possible tie. As it was, the 7-0 victory was to prove a costly one, for five regulars were banged up so badly that they were on the shelf for the game with De Paul. Going to Chicago, to play a supposedly breather gamef the Cardi- nals faced a small but fighting team of Blue Demons from De Paul. With the possible glory of defeating the highly rated and undefeated C.U. team, the Chicagoans never let up and fmally turned in a 9-6 Vic- tory over a handicapped Redbird squad. Though toppled from the ranks of the nations undefeated, C. U. was destined to rise again to heights of football glory in the closing games of the season. Meeting West Virginia Wesleyan in Griffith Stadium, C.U. entered the fourth quarter in a 6 t0 6 deadlock. Suddenly coming to life, the Cardinals became touchdown-minded and in eight plays featured by a 29-yard run by Carroll, the score was boosted to 13-6. For good measure Makofske and Munhall reeled off a couple of long runs to tally a final score that sent the Bobcats home with their tails bobbed a little shorter y and whimpering t0 the tune of a 19-6 defeat. : WILLIAM LAJOUSKY l23 The CARDINAL I936 Seven days later the Flying Cardinals once again went into action, this time against the strong Green Terror eleven from W'estern Maryland College. It was the Homecoming game for Catholic U. and a crowd of 8,000 spectators, composed mostly of alumni, saw the Bergmamcoached outfit triumph by a 20-6 score. A 62-yard touchdown dash by Irish Carroll and the sensational punting of C.U.ls sophomore quarter- back, Spec Foley, were the features of this contest. Bill Adamaitis also shone for the Cardinals by chalk- ing up two six-pointers with his great line plunging. However, the best played game in which the Catholic U. eleven saw action was the Turkey Day scrap with the Wolfpack of North Carolina State. Coached by Hunk Anderson, former Notre Dame mentor, the Southerners brought to town one of the strongest teams in their section of the land. For the entire first half of the contest, which was played on a rain-soaked field that resembled a swamp more than a gridiron, the Flying Cardinals withstood the offensives of the Carolinians. It was the great punting of the C.U.'s fullback, Bob Makofske, that turned away the Wolfpack in the first two periods of the game. A blocked punt by Joe Yanchulis that rolled past the end zone for an automatic safety and a 41-yard sprint over the N .C. state goal line gave the Cardinals their 8-0 upset. The s'ound of the final gun down in Miami not only signalled the close of the Orange Bowl game but also the Close of the gridiron careers of five of the greatest athletes in Catholic Universityls football his- tory. The men who wound up their collegiate football careers on the first day of nineteen thirty-six were Captain Ed Karpowich, George Mulligan, Hal McGann, Bill Lajousky, and Pete Dranginis. To Ed Karpowich must go the lions share of the credit for the great scores the Cardinal football forces compiled this past season. Captain a Popeye, a big lumbering 210-pound tackle, was the type of leader HAROLD McGANN who by his courage and hard play inspired his teammates on to greater achievements in the face of insurmountable odds. l24 The CARDINAL I936 George Mulligan, the greatest of Catholic Universityts Hankmen, was the same sort of player. CU. football followers will never forget his sensational playing in the final moments of the Detroit game when the mighty Irishman grabbed forward passes seemingly from nowhere and raced on to score the points that gave the boys from Brookland one of their gra ndest victories 0f the year. Mulligan was awarded All-American and sectional honors for his play in this game and the other contests on the C. U. schedule. Hal MCGann was another Cardinal wingman who distinguished himself with his sparkling pigskin performances. He was well schooled in football fu ndamentals. His hard clean blocking and tackling were features of every contest in which he participated. For his entire four years at this institution Hal was the personification of a true gentleman, scholar, and athlete. The unsung hero of Catholic U.,s football success was Bill Lajousky. Bill, a 200-pound Lithuanian-born giant, was a veritable wall of strength in the Catholic U. forward line. Although one of the most vital factors in the success of the CU. line for the past three years, he did not receive the praise and the publicity for his work which were rightfully his. Before the seasons inaugural the Redbird eleven were conceded by the critics to be a potentially good football team with but a single weak spot. That weak spot was at quarterback. However, after these same critics had seen Peter Dranginis call the plays for the Catholic U., this point was promptly corrected. The diminutive signal barker turned out. to be the most improved back on the Redbird eleven. Particularly in the last few games did Peter show this superiority. Against Mississippi and North Carolina State his performances were Hawless. GEORGE MULLIGAN The CARDINAL I936 Joseph D. Yanchulis The Most Valuable Player on the finest eleven ever to represent Catholic University is Joseph Yanchulis. This is the tribute paid to a man Who has time and again placed team above self, whose every act on the gridiron is calculated to make the football coach under Whom he plays repeat this commendation of praise. While playing center on the Freshman and Varsity teams during the past three years, uYani, has improved With every game. Although he was the lightest man on the line, his stamina enabled him to play more minutes of football than any other player. Seemingly unhurtable, Joe has repeatedly demonstrated an un- canny ability to diagnose plays, roving into holes split by oppOsing linesmen just in time to bowl over interferers and make hard and clean tackles. The number of plays, both offensive and defensive, in which Cardinal rooters have Watched Joe Yanchulis act as the key man cannot be adequately comprehended unless one has had the pleasure of watch- ing; Joe play. But an attempt to gild thelily always. fails. So the CARDINAL of 1936 contents itself with being proud to acclaim Joseph Yanchulis as the outstanding Cardinal football player of the year 1B A 8 1K IE I ll3 A IL IL The CARDINAL I936 Adamaitis, Pagano, Yanchulis, Lieb, Cotton, Schmarr, Brown, Carroll.

Captain Bernie Lieb and Hermie Schmarr were the bright lights of the Red and Black quintet. In fact so great was their play that they both received All-District honors at the close of the season, the former being placed at guard while the latter was presented With a position at forward. Schmarr also earned more honors for himself and his university by capturing the collegiate individual point scoring crown for the District of Columbia. Zeke Brown, captain-elect of next years court five, also performed brilliantly on more than one occasion for the Cardinal cause. uZeke teamed up With a newcomer, Sam Pagano, at the guard posi- tions to give Catholic U. one of the strongest defensive teams in this section. Irish Carroll proved to be just as adept at the court game as he was at toting a pigskin up and down the football gridiron last fall. He and Hermie Schmarr were the forwards of the Brookland five. Although he was placed at guard on the All-District basketball team, Captain Bernie Lieb played center for the CU. courtmen. Joe Yanchulis and Bill Adamaitis completed the Cardinal court roster. Though they were cast in the role of substitutes, both men saw consider- able action and often turned in beautiful basketball performances. A great deal of credit for the splendid exhibitions of the Cardinal five should go to Coach Fod Cotton. The Orange Bowl game in Miami took a horrible toll of his basketeers. Bernie Lieb was the lone C.U. player who was not a member of the football squad. Consequently, due to the lavish preparations for the New Years Day battle, little time was left for Fods, stalwarts to obtain their court practice. So it was . . BERNARD LIEB The CARDINAL I936 that the Card mentor had to put a practically drill-less team on the floor for the entire first half of the season. Despite this handicap the Cotton-coached Cards scored victories over Maryland, Davis-Elkins, West- ern Maryland, Roanoke, Maryland State Normal, Mt. St. Marys twice, St. Thomas, La Salle, John Mar- shall and Emory and Henry. On the other hand, Duke, the outstanding basketball team of the Southern Conference, Long Island University, one of the greatest combinations in the country, St. Josephs, Geneva, an Olympic contender, were the alien fives who scored victories over Catholic University. The remaining four games were played with St. Thomas and La Salle. Losing to both teams early in the season, the Fly- ing Cards improved sufhciently to trounce both teams later in the season. HERMAN SCHMARR Perhaps the most thrilling victory scored by the CU. team this year was the triumph over Maryland University. The Redbirds went into the fray as distinct underdogs, and for three periods trailed the College Parkers. However, in the dying moments of the tussle the Cottonmen came through with one of the most spirited rallies ever seen on a basket- ball court. The entire team collaborated in scoring over 15 points in the space of 5 minutes and to ultimately earn a 40-29 decision over the Terrapins. Only one member of this seasonis Cardinal court squad Will be lost for next year. But this loss will be tremendously felt by the CU. team as it will be its captain, Bernie Lieb. For the past three seasons Lieb has received All-District recognition and he will always be remembered at Catholic University as the greatest team player to ever wear the Red and Black. He never hesitated to forego personal glory for the sake of the team. The CARDINAL I936 La Fond, Guinan, La Salle, Bunsa, Rydzewski, Katalinas, White, Greco, Dranginis, Misenhelter, Lentz.

His only consolation was that Fred Mix, iiSally Greco and Ferd Rydzewski had seen action in the non-Southern Conference bouts of the previous year. After a week's practice, scarcely enough to get the kinks out of their muscles, the Cards faced North Carolina State in their first encounter of the year. Avenging their football defeat, the Wolfpack scored a 5-3 victory. Greco and Rydzewski scored wins and a forfeit was made to Chludenski in the heavy weight Class. La Fond was made no happier by this set back, especially in view of the impending match with the highly touted Marylanders the following weekend. On black and white the Redbirds were as good as salted away by the Terrapins. Maryland, with practically the same team that had taken the Cards into camp to the tune of SVZ-ZVZ, came to Brookland confident of a victory. But what happened will be re membered for many a year to come. The first two bouts went to Maryland. Captain La Salle was then awarded a decision and hopes for at least a creditable showing began to rise. With superlative boxing skill, Mix gained the nod over the hard hitting Webb to knot the count at two-all. But here, the iiin-the-know boys shrugged their shoulders and relaxed to watch Ivan The Terrible, Nedomatsky make short work of young Sally Greco. Facing the unbeatable Southern Confer- ence Champ, Sally caught a stiff right to the whiskers and took the count of nine in the first round. Rushing in for the kill, Ivan was sur- prised to find Greco eagerly waiting for him with a right that rocked him to his heels. Then followed two rounds of whirlwind fighting, at the end of which the onlookers, who thought Greco's strong comeback had earned him the decision, was disappointed to learn that a draw had been called. CU. forfeited in the 165 pound class. But Rydzewski evened the score at 315-3V2 by administering the primitive potion to John Gormley in the third round of their encounter. Then Leo Katalinas entered the ring for CU. for the first time, and, in perhaps the most CAPT. CARMEN LASALLE The CARDINAL I936 vicious and thrill-provoking battle ever fought in the spacious gym, decisioned the tough John Birkland with a wide margin. The hopes of Victory which had been growing all evening, were finally realized- C.U. was victorious by the close score of 415-515. Next came the cream of the Eastern Intercollegiate Conference, Carnegie Tech. They were sent back hopelessly outclassed, 7-1. Freshmen Bunsa and Misenhelter proved their worth as prospective varsity bat- lers. Bunsa thrilled the crowd by doing something that Ripley writes aboutehe knocked out his oppo- nent twice and the referee once, all in the same round. The latter was the result of a round-house left which caught the official Hush on the chin as he was about to step in to catch the Tech man before he fell. Leaving Brookland for their first and only match away, the Cardinal l'leather pushers entrained for North Carolina where they encountered the exceptionally strong Duke University team. Rydzewski as usual, and Katalinas scored the only C.U. Victories. The match was far from being a one sided affair. The Duke Victories were earned by narrow margins after highly con- tested bouts. Returning to their native fields, the CU. mittmen gained two glor- ious victories over Pittsburgh and Cornell. Twinkletoes Guinan after three fast and aggressive rounds against a Pitt panther was awarded a well deserved decision. This marked his first intercollegiate victory and followed upon many disappointing losses in which his Lady Luck was conspicuously absent. Against Cornell the squad reached the heights of perfection. Losing but one bout the Cardinal Sluggers completely outclassed the lads from Ithaca. As the bell rung at the end of the third round of the last bout and as Katalinas lumbered out of the ring a winner, the curtain fell upon another year of intercollegiate boxinge a year ushered in with dismal predictions, but ending with applause and praise from all sides. To Eddie La Fond, Captain Carmen La Salle and to each and every member on the squad we extend our wholehearted congratulations. FERDINAND RYDZEWSKY Their splendid exhibition of the true C.U. spirit and Will to win had car- ried the cardinal and black colors to many hard earned, yet sweet, triumphs.

Lieb Street Egan McCormick Vidnovic Gemlo McCulloch Walker GofTredi Weedon The CARDINAL I936 Baseball The re-instatement of baseball as a minor sport at CU. is the masterstroke which changes 1935- 36 from a fine year into the finest year in the athletic history of the University. Regardless of the success of the team this first year, or how the schedule shapes up at the end of the season, this first step is an all-important one towards the goal of placing the University on a par with sim- ilar institutions in offering every facility to satis- fy the desires of its students for physical develop- ment. This first year will necessarily be a slow one for the Cardinal baseball team due to lack of equipment, material and a first class schedule. Yet, these very factors will be the ones to shape C.U. into the baseball school which it once was, and place it far up on the list of baseball ratings; for if, in spite of these handicaps, the grand old sport takes with the students it will Fanjul be because there is enOugh genuine interest and spirit in the student body to place it where it belongs. ' These first few years are delinitely trial ones for baseball, and its fate depends entirely upon the students. To date, indications prove that its reinstatement was no mistake. The tentative schedule includes Maryland, Georgetown, Navy, Mt. St. Marys and Western Maryland, and the squad which is working out under Dutch Berg- man and Doc Clarke is beginning to take on the appearance of a real baseball team. At the time this book is going to press, the interest of the students in general, the spirit and work of the candidates who make up the squad, and the work of the coaches in providing a schedule and shap- ing a team from the material at hand, are all factors which point toward a rosy future for C.U.,s baby sportebaseball. Carley 1 The CARDINAL I936 I38 Intramurals The Intramural Department of Catholic University reports another successful season of play for the year of 1935-36. During the months of October and November two leagues of Touchball played a full schedule with the winners of each league playing off for the Campus Championship. This team in turn played with Maryland and George- town Universities in an Extra-Mural Tournament. Although Catholic University did not win this tournament, much pleasure was derived from playing against outside schools. Tennis and handball tourna- ments were also conducted with a fair representation in each sport. The winter season was mostly taken up in the playing of basket- ball with three leagues competing with a total of a hundred and twenty-two participating. Two leagues of four teams each were also organized among the seminaries with a total of eighty men playing. This means that two hundred have Played in organized basketball. During the month of March, tournaments in Volley Ball, Foul Throwing, Boxing, and Swimming met with a fair amount of success. The Spring season was regarded as the best of the year with base- ball being the outstanding sport. Eight teams, representing two leagues, played through a very close and exciting schedule. Next in impor- tance was the tennis tournament. Handball and play-ground ball also had a fair turn-out. It has been the aim of the Intramural Department to conduct its program for the benefit of the student body. Included in the pro- gram are games with superior carryover values. Further improvements and increased facilities for this program are included in the future plans of this Department. Catholic U. Catholic U. Catholic U. Catholic U.

Too long and too stupidly have the students of C.U. excoriated the scientific man- ner in which you have chosen to perform your daily tasks. Too long have you been berated for your high-minded interest in the potentialities of labor-saving devices. You have been what is popp- ularly known as put on the spot! The more thoughtful of the students sympa- thize with your dilemma. It seems such a pity that there is not a haven on the campus where the prying eyes of TOWER reporters will be unable to strip you of every privacy you rightly deserve and seek. For you are not merely the Busy Bees. Ah, no! In your humble forms lies the germ of a great movement tor lack of movementy You are men not only of thought, but also of decision. Your decisiveness in furnishing us with an object les- son in how to deal with the unemployment situ- ation stirs our souls. For you know that if you can stand in one spot, leaning on your honest shovels for hours upon hours, someone else will have to be hired to clear away the snow, thus relieving part of the unemployment situation, as well as providing you with time for philosophic meditation which the world cannot go on without. You know that if you lie on the roof of Gibbons Hall for weeks at a time, lllocating a leak, some- one will, at last, have to be drafted from the army of the workless to find and repair the leak, thus partly putting an end to the spectre of lab- orers without hire, as well as providing your own muscular forms with the bronze hue which is regarded as so modish for the manly man. But why multiply examples of the notable work you are performing? Yours is the labor of love, not seeking vain and empty publicity, but preferring to be satisfied with the knowledge of a good job unfinished. Busy BeeseOur hearts are yours. You comprise the last group at CU. of that vanishing group of men Whose watchword is llWe seen our duty and havent done it!

ORAN HVNI 5 The CARDINAL I936 l50 Fire Fighters There are firemen and firemen, we are told, and, after four years at college, we begin to re- gard this profound and subtle remark in the light almost of an aphorism. No prophecy from the Delphian Oracle ever was more true throughout the years than these wordsethere are firemen and firemen. Now the ordinary type of fireman functions of course at the ordinary type of fire, or the ordinary type of false alarm, or the ordinary type of poker game. On him and his drab and commonplace life we do not intend to expatiate. It is rather, the extraordinary type, or, if you are a biologist, the mutation, whom we intend to treat at this time. This fireman belongs to a very definite and pe- culiarly well-marked class of individuals. These in- dividuals always live in the third or fourth floors of red brick or grey stone buildings. Their llecto. derm is usually a sweater of a reddish substance, not unallied to the wool which humans wear. They play bridge and sleep all day, and are downtown all night, that is. when their duties as lireman allow them this leisure time. They look with dis- dain on the heavy fire hose; they cast aside the prosaic hrefighteris celluloid hat and heavy boots; their steeds are not heavy-hoofed lire horses, not are they the cumbersome fire trucks. Their arma- ment is much more subtle, for the fires that they fight must be searched out with great acument not to say marksmanship. Their favorite conveyances are small cars, usually Fords, of as ancient vin- tage a will llrun. For the crass fire hose, they say llpoofl'! All that seems to be necessary for the complete performance of their duties is a paper bag, pound size, a third or fourth floor window and some uninitiate, temperamentally alight with the fires of emotion, who is so unwary as to stand within the radius of their deadly and unswerving aim. It is to these hardy and vigilant firemen that we pledge our toast! Theirs is never a false alarm ethey always hit the mark! The result of their work through the years cannot be encompassed by a mere totalling of campus tailoring bills. Their reward in the great beyond will be a fiery halo- the prize for each campus social light whom they quenched, the emblem of their untiring effort to send the cohorts of Catholic University into Brook- land with the wariness which must be the man's who is to meet the wiles and ambushes of that wilderness of femininity with an iron spirit and a careful demeanor.
