Pledge Marter IRA WHEATLEY Sergeant at Arm; The Cave Dwellers, who take their name from that chosen for themselves by old families of distinction in Washington, is composed of students residing 0g the campus. 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. Pint Row: Ramler, Rexach, Anselmo, Giovannetti, Lix, Dugan, Hemelt. Second Row: Phelan, Law, Wyble, Weedon, Ferguson, Johnson, Middleton, Fr. Strahan.
