Welsh Page 106 THE CLASS OF 1925 Medi icine The class started out sixty-five strong, up on the hill in the fall of 1919, under the spirited guidance of Dean Robert Kelley, and piloted by Paul W. Barnev, as president. Then, as now, chemistry was the storm center, causmg a few to sink, the rest to fervently pray for the good fortune of gettmg by. Many tried to go to sleep in Father Quinlan ' s philosophy class, but none really succeeded. The big indoor sport that year was dodging Father Kelley when late for Mass, while the big outdoor sport was to job the medical school for an excuse from drill. The next year Elmer McAleer was chosen president. From then on, the class made itself felt because of peculiar united effort. In common expression, we stuck together. It was a heavy year. Chemistry, biology, and physics were nightmares to many of us. Mr. Schaeffer, professor of biology, enthusiastically took us under his wing. With his vim, vigor and exemplifications, Bud Schaeffer did much to maintain and strengthen the spirit of unison. In the fall, we had a class smoker, and in the spring a class picnic. Each was a huge success. The picnic, held far out in the country, north of Flornece, was, we believe, the most complete and enjoyable picnic ever had by any class. Next year, we migrated to the medical school, thirty-six of the original bunch. Six outsiders joined us — and golly! one, a co-ed! Somewhat embarrased and bashful were we to welcome her, but happy have we been, ever since, to have her with us — indeed one of us. Cyril Scanlan was chosen president, and we freshies went through that year with colors flying. The features of the year were lectures by Dean Schulte. Important events that year were frat initiations, smokers, visiting the clinic, and oral quizzes by Dr. Lancer. The second year put Anaconda on the map. We elected Leo O ' Rourke president. It was a more serious year. There was physiology, pathology, and pharmacology, and we had to study medicine, as well as take it. Events: the most solemn was receiving our Bachelor of Science in Medicine degrees. Important ones were: handing in physiology experiments, buying our stethescopes and lectures on nutrition. The startling one was a final oral examination m pathology. Funny ones: diagnoses in gross pathology and Ax Dolan acting as dog catcher. The present year we started out with a jump, thirty-six on the roll. Being initialed into the clinic was the big feature — Quite a feeling of importance that was. Jean Trudeau was elected president, and the fair co-ed. Miss Magiera succeeded herself as secretary and Ed Christie was elected the new treasurer. A class smoker, dance and Junior Prom were the social events of the year. Various states are represented m the class: Nebraska, fifteen; Iowa, seven; Minne- sota, six; Kansas, two; one each from North Dakota, South Dakota, Illinois, Utah, Wash- ington, and one from Montana. The class is well represented in Varsity athletics: McAleer, captain football, 1923; Delaney and Scanlan, subs on the football team. Delaney had a most promising debut cut short this fall by a bad fracture of the left clavicle. He will be back in lineup next fall, however. Condon is a star distance man on the cinder path. Primasing, Homan and Reed are champions in pinochle, and Dolan represents the class in checkers.

M THE CLASS OF 1925 unior r rom HE JUNIOR PROM, undertaken this year - ■ for the first time, represents a development of pan-university social life at Creighton. In universities where the students boast of a lav- ish type of social activity, a Junior Prom is a sine qua non, and every attempt is made to render it the f ' t H annual classic. No expense is spared for this gala ■ H event. There was no reason why we should ig H be without our Junior Prom. and so representative m B l social leaders at Creighton took steps toward that ' end. Departmental representatives were chosen. These were: Jean Trdeau and Milton Beitenman, Medicine; Wallace Porth and Fred Mancuso, Law; Beatrice Sattler, Prom Queen Gene Leahy and R. A. Kopp, Pharmacy; John Kelly and Adolph Svoboda. Commerce; R. A. Penny and L. A. Lash. Dentistry. W. S. Porth was named chairman of this committee. The staging of Creighton ' s first Junior Prom was controlled by the idea that the event was to be elaborately gala, yet adjusted to meet Creighton ' s social traditions. It was fitting that this event, so widely heralded and promising so much, should be held in the gym — the scene of so many of those big University hops, which were the fore- runners of this more pretentious effort. A feature of the evening, which added a distinctive touch to the affair, was the choice of a Creighton co-ed as Prom Queen. Her identity was skilfully concealed and added an element of anticipation to the gaiety of the evening. Every one was agreeably sur- prisd to find that Beatrice Sattler, Senior Law. had been chosen. The Prom was largely attended, and it was estimated that more than three hundred couples feted terpsichore. amid unique and elegant decorations, and to the rhythm of superb music. The effect of the elaborate decorative theme was to change the old Gym into a luxurious ball room. The floor had been especially treated and rendered perfect for the dancing. Bon-bons for the ladies and distinctive cigarettes for the gentlemen were used as favors. This year ' s Prom marks a definite step forward in the Uni- versity life at Creighton. May it be hoped that soon the tradition of a Junior Prom, in honor of the Senior classes, will soon become firmly established. The evening of April 25 will long be remembered in Creigh- ton ' s social history. Wallace Porth.

Wipf The fall of the 1922-23 school year marked the entrance into the College of Den- tistry of one of the largest, most illustrious, distinguished, and ambitious Freshman classes that has ever adorned the college. Nearly two school terms have passed, and this class is nearing the completion of its Sophomore year, but the record it has made is one of brilliancy and achievement. Among other things, the Sophomores have the best poker player in the University. We have representatives on the various University publications. In the realm of Grand Opera, our University Four shines (not shoes). As for athletics. Dental College traditions have loyal champions in this class of ' 23. We have two members on the basketball squad. The track team boasts of four Sopho- more Dents, one of whom holds the Kansas state record m the quarter mile. In football, five letter men are members of this distinguished class. Our social standing may be judged by the fact that out of a class of fifty-eight men, forty-seven are fraternity members. The fact is, this most illustrious class of ' 26 is an adornment to the school, not only in the above mentioned qualities, but also in all activities of the school. We caution you, however, not to expect too much, since our extreme modesty allows us only to give bare facts. Notwithstanding this, we must mention the fact that Walter Camp picked one of our members on his famous All-American football squad. Last, but not least, our intellectual abilities are undoubtedly extraordinary, since no less an authority than Dr. C. F. Crowley has repeatedly informed the entire class that we are all bright young fellows. C cnn E. Slaley, ' 26. Huge IIQ fAT vV i ' L-c ' . V ' i. THE CLASS OF 1926 Law OFFICERS John J.

A band of hopeful entrants from near and wide — from prosaic Omaha to distant, ro- mantic Hawaii, from Nebraska farms to Dresden, the city of art in central Europe. But strangers soon become intimates. S even hours of association each day soon produces a feeling of good fellowship. Then, on a memorable day we met Dr. Hippie, our Dean. He surveyed the class a long time. He made his appraisal with as much care as an engineer estimating the merits and the value of a structure. The room was perfectly quiet. At last his voice. You ' re all right, he said. He spoke quietly, with sincerity and conviction. Again he said, You ' re all right. Then, for the remainder of the hour he talked to us, as a father to his own boys. From a rich fund of personal experience and close observation he told us of the problems that confront every college freshman. It was a fitting welcome and very kind. Our first favorable impression has proved to be well founded. We regard Dean Hippie as one of our staunchest friends. In those first words he set up a high st andard for us. We have much to live up to. But a well balanced school life is not all classroom work. We are in fact a versa- tile bunch. We are justly proud of our high standing in inter-class athletics. Without doubt, the demonstrations of our physical abilities has safeguarded our peace. We have been exempt from the numerous indignities usually inflicted upon the innocent freshman by the sophisticated sophomore. Just once was our integrity threatened. Four large sophomores looked covetously upon the long locks and artistic side-burns of one of our miniature classmates. We immediately came to his assistance. The ruffians fell back in disorder. A sound mind in a sound body is our aim. Sound has yet another appeal for us — an artistic urge. An appreciation of art is an admirable trait. Practically every member of our class possesses it. One afternoon we made a tremendous sacrifice for art ' s sake. It was in the middle of the opera season. After a prolonged period of earnest and intense discus- sion, the decision was made. We felt it our duly to forego the exhilarating pleasure of attending the class regularly devoted to the study of How to produce English composition full of passion and fire, that we might attend the opera. We went to a theatre on lower Douglas. Although small, it is strictly exclusive, and bears a regal name. The perform- ance moved many to the point of tears. All of our activities, however, are not so serious. The Molar club is a purely social Freshman Dental organization. It is not a dry, technical club as the name might indicate. Its members have staged some of the liveliest dances imaginable at Hanscom Park. Such episodes, then, constitute much of our amusement and entertainment. Yet, they actually represent a very minor part of college life in a professional school. We have come here with a high ideal before us. Our aspiration is to serve our fellow man to the best of our ability. To serve best, we must develop ourselves into capable, painstakingly thoiough and artistic practitioners of Dental Surgery. This requires much study and work. Hard work and study is the litany of the Dental Freshman. Dean Hippie told us we were all right. We, too, believe that we are all right. We have started climbing the up-grade, determined to maintain our standards, resolved to hold to our ideals through our college course and in our subsequent professional careers. In this way will we prove to the world that, We are all right. W. R. Naumann, ' 27. I ' ufic ni THE CLASS OF 1927 Medicine xt ' I •i « jSA R. M. Bell F. E. Brown J. H. Carr R. A. Carrow H. Closson F.

They all admit that. There seems to be a common bond of sympathy between them. Each one pities the other in his hour of distress, for the study of Medicine is certainly distressing, to say the least. Not that this illustrious group of embryonic doctors doesn ' t like to work. Oh my, no! Any one of them would rather write a treatise on diabetes or work out the intricacies of the brachial plexus than — say, go to the Orpheum. But let me grow specific. Now there is Hon. William J. Egan, our own Ten- nessee Shad, whose management of the office of class treasurer is worthy of utmost commendation. He has a line like the Atlantic Cable and hands which would have been the envy of Shylock. Why he ever took up the study of Medicine is an un- solved mystery, for surely, collecting agencies are in need of capable men. Another notable of the group is Rupert G. Raney. Now Rupert, better known as little Elmer, carved his initials in the hall of fame by executing a magnifi- cent drawing of the muscles of the head and neck. He executed it alright. One of the boys mistook it for a portrait of Asa Spades, the North Twenty-fourth street shiek, just emerging from a contest in Ethiopias ' national pastime called bury the razor. Elmer says the drawing is the only thing that he can think of that could possibly be the cause of not getting a ninety-five in Anatomy. The Philippine Islands are further made famous by Count Tolentino. The Count, however, leads a wild existence over here in these United States. Between dodging Egan and arguing for Filipino independence, he finds it rather difficult to grasp the profound facts of Histology and the other nightmares. Nevertheless we look to Tolly as a leading light in the medical endeavors of the Philippines. We would, however, advise General Wood against engaging him as his personal physician. Dr. Levine ' s laboratory is the Mecca of chemical research. With the services of such proficient young chemists as Glass, Gleason, Hubenka, Kline, Miss Flaherty, Greenberg, and Sternhill, we look forward to the day when all the intricacies of diet and nutrition will be solved. We shall rejoice with them, when they have com- pleted their tables and charts, for then life will be so simplified. Each baby, upon arriving in this great, wide, beautiful world, will be handed a can of vitamines and sent on his life ' s journey. This can will contain all the necessary sustenance to last .him his natural life of one hundred and fifty years. Simple. Besides this great service to humanity, the above mentioned classmates will derive other benefits, — ah, the other benefits. Last but not least among our fifty-four Freshmen, we have the honorable Mr. Mel Robbins. Lyons, Nebraska, may well be proud, for it is the home of the most popular man in the Freshmen class — our President. Ed Morris, ' 27. Pace 133 5 ±M IMIHHiHaitBHB ' ll summer oession IN opening its Summer Session on June 21, 1913, the University was actuated by a desire to extend the use of its facilities to that large class of ambitious persons who are eager for self-improvement and who, because of circumstances, wish to take advantage of the summer vacation to improve their intellectual equipment, and to give an opportunity as well to the more ambitious students to make more rapid progress by extra work. That the University acted wisely is proved by the above picture of the 555 students who attended the 1923 Session. Five hundred of these are teachers. Four hundred and forty-eight Sisters were among this number. Eighteen states were represented and forty-four religious communities; Benedictines from three motherhouses; Blessed Sacrament; Dominicans from two; Fran- ciscans from six; School Sisters of Notre Dame from two; Humility of Mary from two; Sisters of Mercy from seven; Presentation from two; Precious Blood from two; Sisters of St. Joseph from two; Ursulines from five; Servants of Mary, Religious of the Sacred Heart, Loretto Sisters, Holy Childhood, Holy Names of Jesus and Mary, Felician Sisters, School Charity from five motherhouses.

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is commonly regarded as the heart of the institution. There the students do not specialize in technical studies, but have as their object the general development of their talents and faculties, along humanistic and cultural lines. They prepare themselves to do more mtelligently, sympathetically and effectively the work which they will later undertake in the professions or in other avocations. The languages and literature, the social sciences, some mathematics and laboratory science, and philosophy — these constitute the material which makes up the Arts College curriculum. Generations of educators have agreed that this material supplies what best opens up and develops the human mind, broad- ens the sympathies, and renders fit for the most valuable service those who, being endowed with natural talent, seriously carry out the study program which they undertake. It is the hope of The Creighton College authorities that our efforts will always result in further and yet further progress towards the goal of ideal education College of Arts and Sciences WHILE Edward Creighton was carving a mighty empire out of the prairies of the West, he conceived an idea. He foresaw that even within the Hfetime of his children the land west of the Missouri river would change from an endless, tree- less wilderness mto a country of fruitful farms and industries. Realizing that even in that distant day it would be a new country and that the citizens of new countries are apt to tend toward materialism rather than toward religious idealism, he planned a monument to his success in the form of a Catholic college. Before he could accomplish his task, however, he died without leaving a will. His wife, Mary Lucretia Creighton, immedi- L The Library ately took up his work and a few years later a college for the higher education of boys was founded in Omaha. From the start it was a Catholic school, yet no boy was excluded because of his religious convictions. The college was opened in September, 1878. under the direction of the Right Rev- erend James O ' Connor, the first Bishop of the Omaha diocese. With an endowment of less than $150,000 the school offered free tuition to all students. I he year after the college was opened. Bishop O ' Connor found that the direction ol the college and the work of his diocese were too much, so he transferred the control and ihe execution of the Creighton will to the Society of Jesus. Page 140 -l ' 7m THE COLLEGE OF ARTS To Edward and Mary Lucretia Creighton is due the founding of the college, but the little school would probably have died without ever having experienced growing pains had not John A. Creighton inherited his brother ' s ideals. In the period between 1 890 and 1 900 a money famine swept the country. Business men called in their accounts, decreased their stocks, and did everything possible to get enough m oney to meet their bare expenses. Thousands could not do so and failed. Private schools, like other corpora- tions and individuals, were also affected and it has been said that more private schools were closed durmg this period than any other, save during the Civil war. To add to this money shortage, a wave of anti-Catholic bitterness made itself manifest in the United States. It did not fail to reach the west and for a time Omaha was the center of an organ- ization which was doing all it could to suppress Catholicism. Creighton College, always struggling, at last was threatened with being forced to close. The financial fight was overwhelming it. It was in this crisis that Count Creighton gave his greatest aid by donating a small fortune which he needed to help keep alive his many business ventures. But this was not the only time that John A. Creighton aided the college. Man y times he gave large sums for the improvement of the school which bore his name. After the Jesuits took control of the college, and especially after the opening of the twentieth century, it grew rapidly. Starting originally with a single academic course, the curriculum soon included more sciences, then more foreign languages, a larger number of i THE COLLEGE OF ARTS philosophy courses, improvements were made here and additions there until the one college became inadequate and other schools for the training of men to follow the professions were necessary. It was also found necessary to establish a school where boys might be fitted for college, and until 1 920 a preparatory school was conducted in connection with the college. At that time, however, the high school was separated from it and is now an independent unit of the University. In connection with the college is the astronomical observatory under the direction of Father William F. Rigge, S. J. This observatory is largely the gift of John A. McShane, who died in 1924. The library, until 1921, reserved for the use of the faculty, has grown to more than 31,000 volumes from a small collection of books transferred from the library of St. Jo- seph ' s college at Bardstown, Ky., when that college was closed. In 1921 the library was turned over to the college and the former students ' library was given to the high school department. The library contains many rare and valuable books, including a few in- cunabula. During the memory of many of the class of 1924 the college has grown enormously. The attendance has doubled in the past four years, and many improvements have been made. Ralph McCabe, ' 26. Ph})sics Laboratory) Page 142 ' simii A THE COLLEGE Of PHARMACY «r. The Dean A MAN single-handed can really do but little; he must work with others m order to accomplish. At the present time, probably more than ever before, the accomplishment of any worthwhile project neces- sarily requires aclive and inlelligenlly directed co-operative effort. By active and intelligently directed effort, I mean that type which is always accompanied by enthusiasm and keen appreciation of facts — not the blind, passive, acquiescent type that sometimes passes as co-operation merely because it IS not openly antagonistic. It is highly pleasing to me to observe the true spirit of co-operation among the students of all the departments of the Univer- sity, manifested in the publication of this first volume of the Bluejay. Pase 144 D , ' ; ;;s The College of Pharmacy It was on September 1st, 1905, that Creighton University, recognizing the need in this district of an institution where a thorough pharmaceutical train- ing could be obtained, took over the Omaha College of Pharmacy. That Creighton ' s venture in the field of pharmaceutical education was a wise one is proven by the healthy growth of the College of Pharmacy, from its very modest start to what is now generally considered one of the best of the larger colleges of pharmacy in the country. In 1916, the college became a member of the American Conference of Pharmaceutical Faculties, an organization whose membership is limited to the best colleges of pharmacy, as determined by the requirements for entrance and graduation. The college is also registered in the New York Department of Education and by the Boards of Pharmacy of Ohio and other states main- taining registration bureaus. Its diploma is recognized by the examining boards of all the states, and its credits are recognized by all first class colleges of Pharmacy. Creighton offers an appropriate place for holding State Board Examinations. Her laboratories and lecture rooms are volunteered to the jpi f r f  W 11 ii Oi l- ' tigc I!. ' ) pi THE COLLEGE OF PHARMACY state for this purpose. So each year, in May, this Board holds its meeting here in the College. The policy of the College of Pharmacy is to offer thorough, practical, and modern pharmaceutical education and to insure this by maintaining a faculty composed of men who are not only experienced as teachers, but who have been actually engaged in the practice of pharmacy and pharmaceutical chemistry. The benefit of this experience is gained by the student. Although the enrollment has increased rapidly until it is now as large as can be accom- modated, yet it is a very important part of the policy of the college to give individual attention to the needs of each student. One of the greatest advan- tages in practical work in dispensing is afforded by the prescription room maintained by the College of Pharmacy in connection with the medical clinics. This is equalled by but few pharmaceutical institutions. Here thousands of prescriptions are compounded by the pharmacy students for the patients of the clinics. This work, coupled with the intensive courses in the laboratories, serves to give the student more than the usual amount of skill and confidence in dispensing. 4 bH = . 0 iV Pniic in vyv :5i c THE COLLEGE OF PHARMACY While the professional and technical training is at all times emphasized dur- ing the years which a student spends in the College of Pharmacy, social activi- ties are also fostered. Boasting the only sorority in the University, it also has two very active chapters of national fraternities. Several times during the year, banquets and socials are held, where the whole student body has the oppor- tunity of meeting in a social way. These are in addition to the general func- tions of the University. In athletics, during the past dozen years, the college has contributed two captains of varsity football teams, many varsity football players, and prominent baseball and track stars. It is usually considered that the chief product of a college is its graduates, and it is a very pleasing fact that the graduates of Creighton College of Phar- macy are successful professionally and commercially. A very large percent- age of its alumni are proprietors of their own stores and are enjoying the sat- isfaction that comes with such proprietorship. With the above in mind, and the additional fact that the present enroll- ment is drawn from twelve states and one province, it will be realized what a real service is being rendered by the Creighton College of Pharmacy. E. M. Cahlli ' 24. Page 148 COMMERCE AND FINANCE T The Dean HE INCREASING DEMAND for a business education of college grade has led Creighton ' s trustees to establish a College of Commerce, Fmance and Journalism, with courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Commercial Science. Nothing can aid the young man or woman planning a business career more than a thorough, scientific and practical training in his or her chosen field. The new college will give the student complete training for the careers of accountancy, auditing and office, advertising, credit, traffic or sales manage- ment. Only the best texts obtainable will be used and the classes will be taught by business men who have proven themselves successful in their respective lines. The successful business man or woman needs the same careful basic training as does the man or woman in the professions. It is the plan of Creigh- ton to give this needed training so that it may do its part in advancing towards success the business men and women of tomorrow. (ifif :| The College of Commerce and Finance The College of Commerce, Accounts and Finance was opened by The Creigh- ton University on September 20th, 1920, under Father Wm. P. Quinlan, Dean, and is one of the many developments at the University, under Father McCormick ' s admi nistration. A complete professional busmess course is offered to all qualified students, the aim of which is to afford a sound knowledge of busmess prmciples with all possible practical training. The classes are all at night, and the courses are especially designed for those persons already engaged in business who desire to obtain a deeper insight into the problems of their respective vocations, as well as to broaden their knowledge of allied fields. Many students pursuing the Arts courses have carried some work in the College of Commerce for elective credits. The University confers the degree of Bachelor of Commercial Science (B. C. S.), on all regular students who have successfully completed the fours years ' schedule of classes, including all the prescribed courses, and additional electives. to make up eighty points. Students must write an original thesis upon some economic question and in addition satisfy the faculty that they have had at least two years ' successful experience m business, while at school. Upon graduation the student is qualified, after having completed three years ' work in the office of a practicing public accountant or in practice as a public ac- countant, to take the Nebraska state examinations for a Certified Public Accountant, and after five years of like experience, upon successfully passing a required exam- ination, a student may become a member of the American Institute of Accountants, which will entitle him to practice the profession anywhere in the United States. Plans are now being worked out to establish a full time College of Commerce, Finance and Journalism, effective with the opening of the 1924 Fall term. Mr. P. H. Bogardus has been appointed director. He has had a wide and varied experience m business. The courses in the day school will be designed to give the student a general cultural education and a sufficient knowledge of the fundamentals of business to enable him to advance in his chosen field faster and further than those who have not enjoyed this particular kind of training. It will be founded on the belief that in order to achieve the largest measure of success at the present time, the business man needs not only a college education, but a course of study adapted to his peculiar needs. The complexity of modern industrial and commercial processes has ren- dered the traditional college course inadequate to properly equip a young man for the most efficient work in these fields. Universities have been slow to realize the necessity of business education. Most of the Colleges of Business Administration of the larger and older universities have been organized during the past decade. Creighton University, with that sagacity for which it has been noted in the past, is setting the pace in Nebraska. This de- partment will develop and reflect credit upon Creighton, for already several young men have made much progress thru the knowledge attained during the past four years. He who has no future, has no life; he exists, but he does not live. — Dr. Brownson. John Dcgley, ' 24.

It should fit them to practice their profession, by giving them a liberal knowl- edge of the science and art of dentistry, and it should develop in them a true professional spirit, by ever keeping before them the idea that they are being prepared to render service to their fellow-man. Our college is endeavoring to fulfill its mission. m • i ' K} Page 152 The College of Dentistry THERE were numerous hardships and obstacles which had to be overcome before the doors of the Omaha Dental College opened to receive its first class of stu- dents. To the educational enthusiasts along dental lines, the public gave very little support at that time. To organize an institution for the education of young men who desired to follow the profession of dentistry was an enormous task. Every conceivable obstacle was encountered. Despite all this, the Omaha Dental College graduated many efficient men. It continued under this name until 1905, when Creighton Univer- sity, a growing institution, took it over. It was then transformed into one of the best equipped institutions of its kind in the Middle West. Creighton Dental College, endeavoring to maintain the highest standard of educa- tion, rigidly conforms to the stringent requirements of the Dental Educational Council of America, by which it is rated a Class A school. The class of 1919 was the last to be graduated under the old three-year course. In the fall of 1920, the requirements were raised to four years. Plans are already being formulated for the adoption, in 1926, of a five-year course. II II ' n l tfJJJ 5 ■«£ici ' m i. , M. ji?«i9W Bl ' ifSHN I '  ' ' ...

' INFIRMARY In 1921, the authorities of Creighton University realized that the College was out- growing its quarters, and accordingly the spacious and elaborate building at the corner of California and Twenty-sixth streets was erected. This new home of the Creighton Dental College ranks with any of the better class of Dental Colleges in the United States. Its magnitude and beauty can only be fully appreciated by actually visiting the building and viewing its spacious halls, well-equipped laboratories, lecture rooms, and splendid mfirmary, all of which impress the visitor with the idea that the structure is a masterpiece of modern architecture. The infirmary covers the entire third floor. It is 140 feet long and 61 feet wide. Every detail is the result of careful thought and attention. It will accommodate 83 stu- dents simultaneously. The operating chairs are of modern make, and fully equipped. The Dental Department may be proud, indeed, of its magnificent quarters. The policy of the College is to measure its success by the quality of its graduates, rather than by their number. Its success is largely due to its efficient faculty, which includes many of Omaha ' s most successful dentists, doctors, and instructors, as may be observed from the following: I ' M ' Page 155 THE COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY Dr. A. Hugh Hippie, D. D. S.. M. D. S., Dean of the College, is nationally recognized in his profession. He was chosen President of the American Institute of Dental Teachers in 1922. He is professor of Operative Dentistry and Dental Pathology. Dr. James S. Foote, A. B., M. D., formerly professor of Pathology and Histology, has devoted the past few years in research work m his laboratory, at the Dental School. Dr. Chas. Crowley, A. M., Ph. C, M. D., professor of Physics, Chemistry, and Metallurgy, is nationally recognized as a chemist of the highest ability. Dr. Chas. E. Woodbury, D. D. S., professor of Gold Foil Manipulation, is recog- nized as a leading authority on gold foil, in the Middle West. Last, yet one of the most promising additions to Creighton Dental College was the introduction of a Reserve Officers Training Corps. This affords military training, and qualifies students as reserve officers in the military forces of the United States. Lieutenant Colonel John A. McAlister, D. C, U. S. A., introduced it to Creighton Dental College. He was succeeded by Major Rush. CHEMISTRY LABORATORY £5 .- Page 156 iJ rj THE COLLEGE OF LAW The Dean IT IS AGREED by persons in a position to know, that a school of law, worthy of the name, can not be conducted and maintained on the tuition paid by students. Proper housing, an adequate library, and a competent faculty are essentials to a good school. From the funds of the university, Creighton Law College has been furnished a beautiful building; this solves the housing problem for many decades to come. The university also fur- nished the money to purchase and install an excellent law library; but a law- library loses much of its value unless it is kept up to date. To do this, no less than $5,000 to $7,000 a year is required. It is to be hoped that in the near future, through the generosity of some benefactor or benefactors, it will be possible to secure an endowed fund sufficiently large to yield an annual income to meet this demand, and so conditioned that the income can be used for no other purpose. This would insure the future of the school of law. P««e 758 THE COLLEGE OF LAW The College of Law Creighton College of Law is one of the six departments of Creighton Uni- versity. Like the other Colleges of the University, it owes its origin to the generosity of the Creighton family. The College began very humbly over twenty years ago, under the tute- lage of Dean T. J. Mahoney. It was opened in 1904 in temporary quarters furnished by the College of Medicine. We say the College began very humbly for the first year the total registration was only twenty-eight. The next year the Edward Creighton Institute building was erected on Eighteenth street, near the City Hall, for the Law and Dentistry Colleges. Gradual development followed. Graduates taking the State Bar exam- ination were unusually successful and began to make a name for themselves m practice. Alumni began practicing in Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota and the Dakotas particularly, and more or less over the whole country. This gradual and steady development soon brought results. In 1907, we were admitted to the Association of American Law Schools. It was in this year, also, that the State Legislature passed a bill providing for the admis- sion of Creighton graduates to the bar without passing a state examination. This meant that the quality of the work done at Creighton was recognized as being at least equal to that done in any similar school in the state. L Page }r,(} THE COLLEGE OF LAW As was stated above, Timothy J. Mahoney was the first Dean. He served well and honorably from 1 904 to 1910, and under his guidance the College was firmly established, and the foundation for its future growth was laid. In 1911 Paul L. Martin became Dean. Under his administration, which lasted nine years, the College saw a steady development in both num- bers and the quality of the work done. In 1919 the present Dean, L. J. TePoel took charge. This development which we have endeavored to trace resulted in the Law College, together with the College of Dentistry, receiving preference over « THE LAW LIBRARY the other Colleges in the movement for a bigger and belter Creighton In 1921 classes were opened m the splendid new building on the University campus. Here the increased facilities allowed a greater expansion. The faculties were increased. Today the law faculty numbers ten, while the student regis- tration is 227. Although the registration was thus so materially increased, the qualifi- cations of the registrants were not lowered. In fact the opposite was true. 1 wo years of pre-legal work have s:nce been required for entrance. Today a large proportion of the student body is composed of degree men from the Col- lege of Arts and Sciences. Page 160 TfTI -- - — - - — - — , — JOSEPH PATRICK EIBNER was born in New Ulm, Min- nesota, March 17. 1 90 1 , and died in Omaha, March 11,1 924. He received his High School education at St. Thomas College, St. Paul, Minnesota. He entered Creighton College of Law in the fall of 1921 and would have graduated with the Senior Class, which appears m this volume. He was a leader m his class, for three years a member of Creighton ' s basketball squad, the ranking officer in his fraternity, a man among his fellow men, respected and honored by all with whom he came in contact. The heartfelt sympathy of the faculty and entire student body goes out to his father, mother, sisters and brother who survive him. Although the hearty good fellowship and the inspiration of the daily life of Joseph Patrick Eibner have been taken from us, his memory will endure. ¥j THE COLLEGE OF LAW In fraternity life, the Law College has two national fraternities, the Delta Theta Phi, and the Gamma Eta Gamma. Creighton Law has been one of the pioneers and leaders in two very im- portant branches of practice work. Moot Court and Model House. The Moot Court is conducted entirely by students under faculty supervi- sion, with a member of the faculty presidmg as judge. Fictitious cases are tried by students before a student jury, and the entire proceedings are the same as in actual practice. This affords some knowledge of the practical side of the law. The Model House is designed after the Lower House of the State Legis- lature. It also is conducted by students, the officers being elected by the student body. It affords practice in the art of law making. One other feature must be mentioned in connection with the Law College — the Library. It includes 25,000 volumes, with no duplicates, and is prob- ably the largest and best law library west of Chicago. When we stop to consider the character of the faculty and of the students, the past records of the alumni, the equipment of the school and the thorough training given there, we can see no reason why the same high standard of work will not be maintained in the future as has been maintained in the past, and why Creighton graduates will not continue to make a name for themselves and for their school.

The long and arduous course of training required of the doctor is intended to fit him, not only to combat disease in the persons of the sick, but also to prevent its onslaughts, by sup- porting measures of public hygiene and directing the personal regimen of his patients to the betterment of their physical, mental and moral conditions. To attempt less is to fail of the highest service and greatest happiness that the pro- fession offers. The Creighton College of Medicine, in transmitting to its students the accumulations of medical knowledge and skill, strives also to create in them a vision of the enlarging field of helpfulness that is open to the modern physi- cian, who has the learning and the wisdom and the greatness of heart to enlist himself in the service of our great democracy as a teacher and a leader in its aspirations for the increased health and happiness of all its members. J+TX -xr i J, €A 4aXMj The College of Medicine THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE, the first of the University professional schools, began its career in the original St. Joseph ' s hospital on Twelfth and Mason streets, October the first, 1892. The faculty was selected from the leading clinicians of the Middle West, with Dr. P. S. Keogh as Dean. From 1894 until 1913 the school was brought to its majority and to its dommating position in western medical education under Dean Dewitt C. Bryant. The prevaihng course at that time in medical colleges of this country was three years, but in 1 894 the college extended its course to four years. Creighton was the first school west of the Missouri river to require four years of study as a requisite to a degree in Medicine. THE MEDICAL SCHOOL Dispensary and Laboratory Buildings In 1 893 Dr. J. S. Foote became connected with the school. His intense interest in his classes made an impression not easily effaced, and this explains the affectionate remem- brance of him by the alumni. By his scientific research he has contributed not a little to medical literature, notably an extensive work, The Comparative Histology of Femurs, which was published by the Smithsonian Institute. Two years later Dr. C. F. Crowley, then chief chemist of the Michigan School of Mines, joined the faculty. He has added much to the strength of that body and is now regarded as the Dean of Nebraska Chemists. During its comparatively short period of existence the college lost through death two notable figures — Dr. Charles C. Allison and Dr. A. L. Muirhead. Both excelled in their respective fields, one as a surgeon, the other as a pharmacologist. The latter pre- rufif It) ' -, VJ gg: WF7 ' k :i THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE scribed the treatment for his own ailment — Addison ' s Disease. The treatment is given in the Mayo CHnic and is known as Muirhead ' s Regime. The first home of the school is of itself of some historic significance. It was the old St. Joseph ' s Hospital. This institution first opened its doors for the reception of patients in September of 1870, under the direction of the Sisters of Mercy. Two years later the capacity of the building was doubled at an extra outlay of $14,000. In April of 1880 the management passed mto the hands of the Sisters of St. Francis. The Creighton Memorial Hospital was founded m 1 888 by Mrs. Sarah Emily Creighton, who bequeathed to the Franciscan Sisterhood $50,000 towards the construc- tion of a new building. After the death of Mrs. Creighton her husband continued the project and contributed very liberally to the financial needs of the hospital. The finished result was a worthy memorial to his wife, one of the very best in the West, on Tenth and Castellar streets. The corner stone was laid on November 23, 1890, with impressive ceremonies conducted by Bishop Scannel. The buildings were ready for occupation in June, 1 892. Additions have since been made, which give the property a value of more than a million dollars. The buildings and grounds comprise two city blocks square, and the bed capacity is four hundred, which number can be increased in time of need. A separate operating pavilion and laboratory, a general kitchen and b akery, as well as an annex for nervous cases and a palatial home for the nurses are the additions erected in the course of the years. The hospital is an important adjunct to the school ; all clinical ma- terial is reserved for the exclusive use of the faculty and the students of the College of Medicine. CREIGHTON MEMORIAL, ST. JOSEPH ' S HOSPITAL m THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE With the ever increasing number of students it soon became evident that the old hos- pital building used as a temporary medical school would have to be abandoned. A new building at Fourteenth and Davenport streets was erected and thrown open for students in the Fall of 1898. This, too, was found inadequate and the laboratory building to the north was built and ready for use in 1 909. It is connected with the original building on the second floor by a bridge crossing the alley between the two buildings. In 1904 Father W. P. Whelan came to the School as professor of Medical Juris- prudence. In 1907 he was appointed Regent of the School, and he has spent his best years and has thrown his best energies into the upbuilding of the school, and a large measure of its success is due to his untiring energy and to his ceaseless efforts in its behalf. For years he was also Regent of the Law and Dental Schools as well as of the Summer Session, but of late his efforts have been confined to the Colleges of Medicine and Pharmacy. The appointment in 1918 of Dr. Herman von W. Schulte as Dean has added much to the prestige of the School. He holds an eminent position in the scientific world and is an executive of marked ability. To the self-sacrificing devotion of both Dr. Geo. F. Simanek and Dr. B. M. Riley is largely due credit for the loyal and harmonious service rendered the Hospital by the staff members. The college is a charter member of the Association of American Medical Colleges, and is given full recognition by the Royal Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons of England. PARLORS, NEW NURSES HOME— ST. JOSEPH ' S HOSPITAI Page lf)H ' ' « mtwyr L f THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE Creighton Memorial Training School CREIGHTON MEMORIAL TRAINING SCHOOL FOR NURSES opened at St. Joseph ' s Hospital, on November 20th, 191 7, with Mary McMahon, R. N., as Superintendent of Nurses. Twelve candidates for training were admitted as probationers. The trammg school attracted considerable attention from the beginning, since candi- dates for training presented themselves from all parts of the country and particularly from the middle-western states. In 1919, Sister M. Levina became Superintendent of Nurses and, since that time, the school has been in charge of a Sister Superintendent. The first graduation class was in I 920, and numbered eighteen students. The grad- uating exercises were held with the classes graduating from the various colleges of Creigh- ton University Now in its eighth year of existence, the Training School is recognized as one of the greatest assets of Creighton Memorial St. Joseph ' s Hospital, and as one of the leading training schools for nurses in the West. In addition to the lectures given by instructors and professors of the Creighton L ni- versity College of Medicine, the student nurses have the advantages of practical instruc- tions in physical culture, anaesthesia, laboratory, roentgenology, and pharmacy, thus af- fording nurses an opportunity to specialize after graduation. !-  , f flf? rage I6Q a j« T, . ■ m T ii I irii THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE Candidates for admission to the School are required to have at least a High School education. They must be between the ages of eighteen and thirty, and in good health. Formal application presented personally is usually required. Two classes are formed yearly, in the spring and fall, in order to secure a systematic training for each class in spe- cial courses of 1 heoretical instruction. The course covers three years. The first three months are devoted to preparation and. during this period of probation, it is determined whether or not the student may continue her course. Since the year 1920. there has been a graduation class each year. In the year 1921 the graduates numbered twenty-six; in 1922, eighteen; in 1923, thirteen; and in 1924, twenty-seven. At the present lime, eighty-eight student nurses are enrolled in the Training School. The organization of the Alumnae was perfected in 1920. In March, 1924, a Sodality was formed for students and alumnae. An annual retreat is held for student nurses. 1 he crowning event in the history of the school was the dedication of the new Nurses ' Home on March 19th, 1924, exactly one year after the breaking of the ground. The cor- ner stone for the magnificent structure was laid on May 12th, 1923, by the Rt. Rev. Jeremiah Harty. The building was erected at a cost of $300,000. It consists of sleep- ing rooms, spacious parlors, well equipped gymnasium, large airy class rooms, and dining rooms for student and graduate nurses, which are being furnished by benefactors. The building is modern in every detail. It affords excellent and attractive accommodations for the students. The remarkable success of the Training School insures its continuance and growth. Pane 170 The Creighton University Students ' Union THE Creighton University Students ' Union v ' as the outgrowth of the belief that some agency should exist at Creighton, by which all student activities might be co- ordinated. Prior to 1922, there was no official student organization to fulfill the long-dreamed-of ambitions of a student body, aspiring to achievements similar to those which observation taught were possible at other universities. It was apparent that stu- dent government could be made the means of developing an energetic and self-reliant stu- dent body, which in turn would promote the best interests of the University at large. With the transfer of the Law and Dental Colleges to the Hilltop Campus, the determination to take advantage of this centralization grew, and repre sentative students decided that the time was ripe for a Creighton University Students ' Union. Class representatives met in January, 1922, and the work of drafting a constitution for a Students ' Union began. In doing this, a careful study was made of the constitutions under which similar organizations existed at other institutions. Chas. B. Morearty was chairman of this temporary organization. At last, the completed constitution was pre- sented to the students and alumni of the University, March 1 7, 1922, at a giant smoker held in the gym. The document was unanimously adopted, receiving the cordial endorse- ment of the faculty. According to the terms of this constitution, the government of the Union was to be vested in a Board of Governors, composed of one upper classman, elected in his Junior year, by each department of the University, two Alumni, chosen by the Alumni Association, and a faculty representative. A manager was to be employed by the Board to carry out its plans. It was provided that an annual fee be paid by each stu- dent of the university, and that this should entitle him to active membership. The Organization Committee functioned as a Board of Governors until May, 1922. On May 5th, of that year, the first Creighton University Union elections were held in all the departments. Marked interest was shown. Those elected were: Albert K. Stevens, Dentistry; Wm. P. Nolan, Law; Thos. Berry, Pharmacy; Julius J. Berger, Arts; Adolph Svoboda, Commerce; Ben Ewing, Medicine. At the first meeting of the new board, Albert K. Stevens was elected president; Wm. P. Nolan, vice-president; Julius Berger, secretary, and Adolph Svoboda, treasurer. Father Schuetz, S. J., was appointed faculty member of the board. Chas. B. Morearty was selected as manager. Ed. Leary and J. W. Ortman were appointed as Alumni representatives. The first year of the Students ' Union was one of achievement. Club rooms were opened in the gym. They were elaborately furnished, and an assistant manager was em- ployed to look after their conduct and management. A weekly college publication, named Page 171 ■9I5 ' THE STUDENTS ' UNION the Creightonian was begun. Four mammoth Union proms, including a Freshman dance and an Oriental ball, were staged. The epoch-making blue fez cap was intro- duced. The huge parade before the Marquette game, the numerous pep meetings, the students ' co-operation at Home-coming, all attested the organization which the Union had effected at Creighton. The creation of the diamond-shaped Union pin, and a three-day carnival were additional achievements of the first board. The second Board of Governors went mto office May 7, 1923. The following representatives were elected: Brendan F. Brown, Law; John J. Foley, Arts; C. Linae Anderson, Dentistry; John J. Kelly, Commerce; Grattan T. FitzGibbon, Medicine; Eugene M. Leahy, Pharmacy. Rev. R. S. Talmadge, S. J., was appointed faculty rep- resentative. Wm. Nolan was selected as manager. H. F. Gillespie and Dr. Frank Lovely were named Alumni representatives. At the first meeting of the board, Brendan F. Brown was elected president; John J. Foly, vice-president; C. Linae Anderson, sec- retary; and John J. Kelly, treasurer. The second Board of Governors has emulated the splendid record of its predeces- sor. Creighton ' s first annual picnic was successfully staged by the new board. The con- tinued maintenance of the Union club rooms and the complete elimination of $1,500 debt incurred by the first board were effected. The social activities of the first year of the Union were rivaled. A program of departmental socials was inaugurated. The Creightonian was materially enlarged and improved. Two student representatives were selected for positions on the Athletic Board. The creation of Governor ' s keys, supervi- sion of the Junior Prom, formation of a University Chess Club, and organization of the Creighton Good fellows were also accomplished. St. Joseph ' s Training School was included in University activities. The second Board of Governors is also to be credited with the publication of Creighton ' s first year book, the 1924 Bluejay. A great future evidently awaits the Creighton University Students ' Union. Within two years, it has done the unprecedented. As it emerges from its infancy and gains strength, its capacity for rendering service to the cause for which it stands will correspondingly increase. ' IN UNITY THERE IS STRENGTH. Brendan F.

THE BARBECUE— HOMECOMING DAY miiETK) ATHLETICS Progress of Athletics at Creighton ATHLETICS at Creighton, both inter-collegiate and intra-mural, have enjoyed a very successful year. Glancing back over the records of past years, one can read- ily see that athletics in our university have progressed marvelously. It is true that we have had in our past history, great teams, both in football and basketball, but never has there been a season so brilliantly successful in all branches of sports as the one just past. Let us glance over the Varsity activities for the year. In football, Chet Wynne developed a team which showed strength equal to any other camp in the Missouri Valley. The proof of our strength is that we lost to Kansas, who was tied for high honors with Nebraska in the Missouri Valley conference, by the narrow margin of 6-0. A similar defeat was suffered at the hands of the powerful Kansas Aggies and, lastly, our team closed the season by defeating Gnnnell, another strong Valley team, by the score of 14-0. Our basketball team, known and published all over the nation as being to basketball what Notre Dame was to football, was one of the greatest ever developed in the West. To Coach Schabinger goes the lion ' s share of the credit for the marvelous record made by our team. The season was probably the most successful in Creighton annals from the standpoint that such teams as Notre Dame, Iowa, Marquette, Indiana, Des Moines, South Dakota State, North Dakota Aggies, North Dakota University and the Haskell Indians bowed down to defeat before the terrific onslaught of our cage team. Not only that, but the Bluejays easily won the championship of the North Central Conference. The third branch of major sport at Creighton, namely, track, hitherto has been a negative quantity in our sport annals. Last year was our first attempt at track, but it was not successful as only one meet was entered and our squad failed to make a favorable showing. This year, however, under the adept leadership of Chet Wynne, a relay team was developed and sent to the Kansas City Athletic Club ' s indoor relay meet, and captured first honors in our class. Next was the North Central Conference indoor meet held at Creighton. This was the first indoor meet ever held in Omaha, and the first indoor track and field meet ever entered by Creighton, but as a result of the expert coaching of material by Chet, another Conference championship was captured. Such was the showing of our track squad that it is expected that another championship will be captured when the conference outdoor meet is held. Several things have helped towards Creighton ' s recognition in the ranks of the coun- try ' s best. They include the adoption of the freshman ruling which has been in effect for two years, the able leadership of W. J. Corboy, S. J., Chairman of the Athletic Board. A. A. Schabinger, athletic director and basketball coach, Chet Wynne, track and football coach, and L. W. McGahan, freshman coach. Intra-mural athletics have probably shown even more growth than the Varsity activ- ities. During the football season several class games were held and it is expected that next year will see a definite intra-mural football organization functioning. In intra-mural basketball, under the direction of Coach McGahan, a schedule of some 30 games was played, and every class in the entire university was represented. The playmg for the greater part of the tournament was close and ended in three teams, the Junior Dents, Sophomore Arts and Freshman Dents, being tied for first place. Addi- tional games were played between these two, which resulted in victory and championship for the Freshman Dents. Other new branches in intra-mural activities were a handball and bowling tourna- ment, which was held during the year, and attracted a great deal of interest. The spring athletics will include intra-mural track and baseball, and from early season interest, will probably be as successful as the other branches of sports. Page 178 q QAfe: Football Coaching Staff Head Coach Wynne Chet is an Ail-American man from Notre Dame and ad- vocates the famous system of that school. Wynne has ably demon- strated that he is a coach of rare ability. He taught his men the fundamentals, emphasizing conditioning, and instilled fight into them. Often the bystanders could hear him say, Tear in there with reckless abandon. Spring practice, an innovation at Creighton, was started and with such a basis to work on there is no doubt that Chet will turn out a championship team in 1924. Chet Wynne Assistant Coach Baldridge Mac made his Y at Yale and has coached at Creieh- ton for three years. He was unusually successful. He held the position of head coach in ' 21 and ' 22, and last year, due to his law practice, he was able to devote only a portion of his time to coaching. He aided Chet Wynne in coaching the line. Mac knows how to develop strong lines, as was evidenced by the lines which were produced during his three years at Creighton. Mac Baldridge Freshman Coach McCahan Mac was the high powered coach who whipped the yearlings into a first-class football combination. He produced a team which nightly scrimmaged against the Varsity and proved worthy competition, thus helping to build the Varsity into a great machine. Coach McGahan developed several men, who will give the letter men a hard fight for positions. His extraordinary ability in producing men and a good team can be traced to the enthusiasm which he has on the field and the punch that he gets into his men.

Mac played hard and clean and always went into the game with the best interests of the team and Creighton at heart. Walter Caver — Captain-elect A better man could not have been chosen to lead the 1924 Bluejays. Tiger, as he is known on the field, earned the name through the viciousness with which he tears and batters the opposing line. He broke up plays before they had a chance to form. Tiger was given honorable mention on Walter Camp ' s All-American team.

Clifford Nolan Cliff is a center of rare ability. He passes well and hits the line hard. His speed enables him to get down on punts and he has the knack of recovering fumbles at the most inopportune moment for the opposing team. He will remain with the squad. Arthur Logan Art played center on the Varsity during the last three seasons and will be lost to the team next year. Art was always on his toes and had all kinds of pep and fight.

He always got in and nailed his man and never was outplayed. Seven is fast and gets down on punts in great style. He will perform for grid fans again this fall. Stuart Neary Neary ' s size and speed caused the opponents no little amount of worry. When on defense, the opponents couldn ' t move him, and on offense he plowed holes in the opponents ' line through which a truck could be driven. Neary played at left guard and will be back again next year. Francis Benoll en Beno, playing his first year on the Varsity, alternated with Gayer and Van Ackeran at tackle. Due to blood poisoning in his arm, he was forced to the side lines several games. His ability as a tackle is beyond question, and will be in evidence during the coming year. Pafic !H3 FOOTBALL Mahone]), ' 26 Leupl(e, ' 26 Speicher, ' 25 Frank Mahone Ike played quarterback the first part of the season and end the remainder of the season. He played exceptionally well in both positions. Ike is noted for his ability to grab passes. He did the punting for the team. Mahoney was selected as end on the All-Conference team. Henr Leupf e Leup played at two positions and adapted himself admirably at both. At the beginning of the year he was placed at end and played there until the middle of the season, when he was shifted to halfback. His speed and ability to hit hard made him one of the most feared men on the team. Joseph Speicher Spike was a veritable speed merchant. He played halfback and accounted for a good many yards when they were needed. The opponents could not stop him when he was under way. He was good at grabbin g passes and was a reliable man on defense. f y -- -jj J, .?:; , .7,-. :M Page 184 FOOTBALL Hickey, ' 26 Lower, ' 26 FitzCibbon, ' 26 Edjvard Mickey Ed was the fighting diminutive quarterback who started the team on its winning streak. He is a good, heady player and has the abihty to find the opponents ' weakness. His generalship was especially noticeable in the Grinnell, Oklahoma Aggie and Michigan Aggie games. Ed ran 95 yards for a touchdown in the Michigan game. Ral) Loiver Heinie should have been named Speed. The opponents had no chance to stop him. His ability to run low, fast and hit hard was the cause of several touchdowns. Heinie played a great game agamst the Oklahoma Aggies. In this game he made both of Creighton ' s touchdowns. A real halfback, we say. Paul FitzCibbon Fitz was kept out of the first two games by a wrenched shoulder and was lost to the team after the South Dakota State game, in which he fractured his ankle. He played at halfback and was in enough games to demonstrate that he was great at going around end, passing and punting. :|r FOOTBALL Powers, ' 25 echoul, ' 25 Daniel Poivers Berioglio, ' 26 High Powers lives up to his name at guard. Whenever McAleer or Neary were out of the lineup, Dan showed the old fight that wins. Dan has played one year on the Varsity, and Wynne expects that Powers will star the next two seasons. Rudolph Yechout Rudy is a natural football player and plays fullback. His ability to pick holes in the opposing line is uncanny. He has a powerful drive, which resulted in many yards for the team. Rudy is also a good passer and will be up and at em again next season. John Berioglio Johnny was one of the hardest hitting backs on the team and the opponents found him a hard man to stop. Somewhat handicapped by a charley horse, Johnny, neverthe- less, put over the goods, and was given honorable mention on Walter Camp ' s All Amer- ican team. Pa e 186 R?r FOOTBALL Th e Season In Review Creighton, 13; Midland, 0. The opening game of the season was played al Fremont on a muddy field, and resulted in a 1 3-0 victory for the Bluejays. Although the 1 922 Ne- ' braska Conference champions fought gamely from start to finish, the superior weight and ability of Creighton swung the score in the right direction. Creighton, 0; Kansas University, 6. In their first battle against a Missouri Valley team in several years, Creighton fought its vvay to a glorious loss, 6-0. The game was played in a heavy rain and on a field ankle deep in mud. The only break went to the Jayhawkers when a Blue fumble on the two-yard line was converted into a Kansas touchdown after four smashes from the one- foot line. Creighton, 34; South Dakota University, 0. Another large score for the Hilltoppers piled up in a whirlwind fashion. One touchdown after another were the results of line smashes, end runs and passes. This game furnished Coach Wynne with his first opportunity to use all the substitutes, and he used the chance well. Creighton, 0; Kansas Aggies, 6. T he second invasion of Kansas brought forth another 6-0 score on an- other muddy field. Battling evenly through three-quarters of championship football, the Bluejays fell before a frantic Kag passing attack in the last minutes. The two Kansas games proved that Creighton was on a par with Missouri Valley teams. Creighton, 20; South Dakota State, 27. Three quarters of perfect football on a perfect , day and a fourth quarter rampage by the Jackrab- WrjlBlltl J bits tells the story of Creighton ' s first conference f ' game. The Bluejays were leading at the end of i«|g3ftf the third period, 20-7, when the Jackrabbits got an aerial spasm and ran across the goal line three times. FitzGibbon, Bluejay sensational halfback, was forced out the rest of the season with a broken ankle. . r,ti:,- mr Creighton, 6; Des Moines, 7. More rain and too much Little is all that can be said of the fifth game. Although Creighton scored first in the second quarter, they could not hold the advantage and the Tigers went across in the final period. The Bluejays, play- ing their first game at home, showed the same brand of play which they dis- played against Kansas, but Des Moines won on a missed goal kick. Creig-hton, 0; Haskell Indians, 26. Homecoming Day was celebrated before 8,000 old grads and rooters with the Redskins as the celebrants. John Levi, All-American fullback for the Indians, was the best that has appeared on the Hilltop field in a long time. The one bright spot in Creighton ' s play was the success of the new shift in lineup which Coach Wynne used for the first time. Creig hton, 27; Michigan Aggies, 6. While Nebraska was upsetting the dope in Lincoln at the expense of Notre Dame, the Bluejays upset the dope in East Lansing at the expense of the Michigan Aggies. Five thousand Homecomers saw Eddie Hickey dedi- cate the Aggies ' stadium with a 97-yard run for a touchdown. The new backfield worked to perfection and finally ended Creighton ' s string of defeats. Creighton, 13 ; Oklahoma A. M., 2. The story of a team which, fighting off train fatigue in the first half, swept its way to a brilliant finish in the final period. A flashing meteorite in the person of Heinie Lower went across the Aggie line twice in the fourth quarter on long runs. Another stadium dedication wrecked by the Bluejay prowess. Creighton, 14; Grinnell, 0. The third start of the season against a Missouri Valley team turned out a glorious victory for Creighton. The Thanksgiving throng which showed up for the season ' s final battle saw Captain McAleer, playing his last game in a Blue uniform, lead his mates in a continuous triumphant assault on the Pioneers. The game was the successful climax of a successful season. ww- w iy ' it MiMitBiiiiiifty FOOTBALL Freshman Football Beginning in the fall of 1922, Creighton adopted the Freshman ruling which is enforced in the Missouri Valley Conference and, in fact, in all of the larger Universities in the United States. Freshman football, under the able tutelage of Freshman Coach McGahan, began to take an active part in Creighton athletics this year. At the beginning of the season, there were upward of fifty freshmen out in uniform, and thirty-two of these men remained with the squad until the end of the season. There was a wealth of real material, both line and backfield, and the men showed a quality of loyalty and interest that is hard to beat. Night after night, no matter what the weather might be, these men were out in uniform, running signals, tackling the dummy, working on plays and developing a team, and at the same time look- ing forward to no other honor but a hard, gruelling scrimmage with the varsity. They gave to the varsity crew the opposition that is necessary to develop a power- ful gridiron squad and to enable the coaches to analyze and remedy the flaws and weaknesses of the varsity machine. During spring practice, these same freshmen were on the field an hour be- fore the time scheduled for practice, passing and punting the pigskin back and forth. They can be depended upon to give the veterans a mighty fight for a place on the eleven next fall. E. E. L man, ' 26.

Time out was called and in the brief pause that followed, before the timer ' s watch completed its last circuit of the great 1923-1924 season, the teammates of Captain Jim paid a glowing tribute to their leader. Ike Mahoney. fighting pal of Lovely throughout his illustrious Varsity court cam- paigns, was allowed to express the sentiment felt in every Creighton heart at Lovely ' s departure from Varsity ranks and to present to the sterling Blue pilot as a token of esteem from the team, a beautiful platinum watch. Emotion that has seldom surged through a Hilltop athletic gathering in a more tender appeal brought tears to the eyes of hundreds as Ike spoke the farewell words. Those hundreds knew that in Lovely ' s passing from the active list, Creighton and the West were losing one of their most glowing court stars. And Lovely — real tears, happy yet tinged with regret, flowing down his cheeks, was swept to the full realization that this was his last great fight for Creighton in the game that he had been born to love, that no more would he be a part of that great team that had thrilled with the cheers of court crowds in a score of states, and that this was his last ovation. It was an ovation that roared forth as Mahoney ' s presentation was completed. Not cheers, not applause, not noise alone made it the most inspiring bit of drama that ever was enacted in the Hilltop realm, but the soul of the crowd went forth in that prolonged amd mighty attestation of appreciation for a brilliant athletic career. Dear Old Gang of Mine floated from the lips of the Glee Club as Jimmy and his gang went back to finish the last two minutes of a wonderful season, in victory and glory. Gordon X. Richmond, ' 26. Page 196 Jimmy holds the distinction of being the only Creighton athlete to captain the Bluejays twice in succession. While he was pilot, two conference championships were annexed. Jimmy was unanimously chosen as an all-conference forward for the past two years and is classed as one of the best forwards in the country. Lovely was noted for his clever floor work and uncanny basket throwmg. Despite the fact that he was a marked man, he scored heavily in every game. Captain Lovely, ' 24 John Trauiman Johnny, Captain-elect, was unanimously chosen to pilot the Bluejays in 1924-25. Johnny has made a wonderful record at Creighton and well deserved the honor which his team-mates bestowed on him. He has been high point man for the last two seasons and was selected as all-conference for- ward for the same period. Trautman displayed unusual speed and accuracy. In the opening game with Indiana he scored seventeen points against Big Ten guards. Caplain-elecl Trauiman, ' 25 cge 197 BASKETBALL Frank Mahoney Ike is a great cage artist. He has held down the center position for the past three years and was selected as all-conference center for the past two seasons. Mahoney is fast and clever on the floor and is famed for his long dis- tance shots. He carries the fight to the opponents from the very tip-off and together with Lovely and Trautman he made up the greatest triumvirate that ever graced the hard wood court. Ike will be with us again next year. Mahoney, ' 26 John Koudele Jack showed more development during the season than any man on the squad. In the last game at Marquette, Jack demonstrated that he was capable of playing in fast company by his excellent guarding. From then on he played several full games and exhibited his ability to Creighton fans. He is unusually speedy, a good shot and guards his man closely. Jack will be fightin ' ' em hard for a place on the regular team next year. Koudele was given honorable mention on the all -conference team. Koudele, ' 27 Sydney Corenman Syd did not come out for the team until the middle of the season, but he was so good that the Coach immediately put him on the squad. Syd played in several games, but took the full re- sponsibility of a guard beginning with the Notre Dame game and continued as a regular to the end of the season. He held his men to low scores and tallied regularly himself. Syd was given honorable mention on the all-conference team. -m Corenman, ' 27 Pa lie rm i Frank is a forward and due to his clever work in the conference games he was given honorable mention on the all-conference selection. He has the old fight and IS especially good on defensive play besides possessing a dead eye for the basket. Frank no doubt will fill in at Lovely ' s place next season, and everyone is expecting that he will have a great season. Joseph Speicher Spike played guard on the team and was mentioned on several all-conference selections. He fought hard and opposing forwards found it very difficult to score from under the basket. Joe was exceptionally good in taking the ball off the backboard and getting it out of danger- ous territory. His dribbling and under-basket shots accounted for many points as well as start- ing many scoring sprees. Speicher, ' 25 Page I ' ) ' ) IHE most successful season ever had at Creighton, are words that well express the 1924 basketball campaign. Fifteen victories out of seventeen starts was the record piled up by the cage squad, and it is one that should stand for many a year. Wms over such teams as Iowa, Marquette, Des Moines, Notre Dame, Indiana, and a sufficient number of conference schools to entitle the Blue- jays to their second straight North Central Con- ference championship, carried the Bluejays far on the rocky trip to the peak of basketball success. Only two games were dropped throughout the long season. The first, which was lost to Nebraska by two baskets, was a decided upset in the dope. The second, to Marquette at Milwaukee, lost by two points, was amply avenged by three overwhelming victories for Creighton. For the team that represented the Blue this last season, no honor is too great. They were a squad, veterans all, who almost nightly credited Creighton with another victory. This same team will return next season intact, with the exception of jimmie Lovely, captain and forward for the past two seasons. A record to equal the past is practically assured for Coach Schabinger ' s squad. Creighton, 39; Indiana, 29. The lid was blown off the ' 23- ' 24 season when Creighton bumped the Indiana Hoosiers sky high. The Bluejays, remembering the first game of the season before, went in to win, and the final score tells only half of it. Indiana had played three games before the Creighton encounter but their practice was not enough. Creighton, 36; Iowa, 13. More Big Ten. Iowa, last season ' s Big Ten champs, succumbed to the fate of Indiana only a few nights later. The second half of that memorable night has gone down into the pages of history. 26-2 was the total score of the final period, in which Creighton gave an exhibition of the best teamwork and basket throwing ever witnessed in Omaha. Creighton, 21 ; Nebraska, 25. The only real drop of the season. The Huskers came with a team deter- mined to win at any cost, and they took home the ball. Nebraska, the jinx Page 200 BASKETBALL to Notre Dame in football, continued to be the champion dope spillers by defeating the Bluejays. Creig.hton, 33 ; Des Moines, 19. The game which cinched the second North Central championship was a thriller for the first few mmutes. Then Schabinger ' s steam roller started working, and another game was taken in. Creighton ' s sixth straight win was the Tigers ' first conference loss. Creig-htcn, 29-23; Notre Dame, 22-12. The flghtmg Irish from South Bend went back to Indiana a much sadder and wiser crew. Scintillating teamwork and uncanny basket shootmg brought victory, where brute force could not. Notre Dame ' s plays were a delight to watch. Creig-hton, 28-18-39-32; Marquette, 17-20-21-12. Our ancient rivals smothered in three out of four starts. Red Dunn showed Omaha how a guard should perform, but his work was not enough to take more than one victory. Captain Jimmie played his last game with the Hilltoppers, and as he left the floor, was given an ovation no other Creigh- ton man has ever received. The other games of the season — the Haskell Indians — were easily won. the best in the North Central Con- ference, and consequently seven men were mentioned on the official all- conference team. First Team F. — Lovely, Creighton. F. — Trautman, Creighton. C. — Mahoney, Creighton. G. — A. Rust, Des Moines. G. — Arnold, N. D. Aggies. Third Team F. — H. Rogers, Morningside. F. — Burkman, N. D.

Page 201 BASKETBALL The Freshman Squad FEW consider or realize, when watching a game of basketball, the magnitude of work which must be done to prepare the Vars:ty squad for the contest. The greater share of this work falls upon the heads of the freshman squad. Night after night they give to the Varsity crew the opposition against which a team must strive in order to perfect a winning five. To the freshmen much credit is due for their faithful work. They are the power behind the throne of Creighton ' s cage kings, and yet they are never seen and are known only as an invisible quantity. Of them, there are no praises sung, there are no cheers from the throats of thousands of fans urging them on to their best, there is no re- ward. But in the heart of every freshman, there is the feeling that he has done his best and performed his duty. When Freshman Coach McGahan issued the clarion call for all freshmen candi- dates at the beginning of last season, fifty men were out in their abbreviated costume the first night. After a week ' s practice the squad was cut in half and then at the end of another week, the final elimination reduced the squad to twelve. These twelve men were out regularly, and while they did not develop a system of signals and plays as did the Varsity, they were drilled on the fundamentals of basketball, and scrimmaged against the Varsity, gaining for themselves experience which will enable them to put up a mighty fight with the veterans for a place on the hoop squad next season. E. E. L];man, ' 26. Y?rP :i .r ' n BASKETBALL - -i Freshman Denis Intra-Mural Basketball INTRA-MURAL basketball was by far the most successful branch of intra-mural athletics. Twenty classes were represented by teams and nearly four hundred games were played. The interest was great because the outcome was in doubt until after the last game was played. The regular schedule ended with a triple tie among the Fresh- man Dents, Sophomore Arts and Junior Dents. It was necessary to have two post-season games to decide the championship. In the first game the Sophomore Arts defeated the Junior Dents by a 7 to 2 score. The Freshman Dents defeated the Sophomore Arts, 10 to 9, in the game which decided the championship. Gold medals were given to each member of the winning team.

Three years ago the first team to represent Creighton on the track was a very poor one. Two years ago there was some improve- ment, but track was still more or less of an experiment at the school. This year, however, track found a solid footmg on an equality with the other three major sports, chiefly be- cause of the efforts of Coach Wynne, to whom, of course, most of the credit for the cham- pionship is due. The indoor season consisted of but one meet, the conference meet. True, the team was running on its home grounds, but this cannot detract from the credit which they deserve for winning the meet after being given but a slight chance to place by the dopesters. The strength of the Bluejays was chiefly in the middle and distance runs. The mile relay team, composed of Stewart, Bendon, Lower and Schuler, easily took first place. Stewart copped the quarter, and Bendon registered a first in the half-mile event. Bliss- ard and Byrne had little trouble in taking first places in the mile and two-mile events, re- spectively. Lower took second place in the 45-yard dash, while Forsythe was counting the same number of points in the pole vault. Nolan boosted the count two points by putting the shot, and Lichtenberger added one and a half when he tied for third in the pole vault. Mahoney raised our total to 3 7 J 2 by placing in the high hurdles. Beginning March 24, the team started training outdoors in preparation for a season of five meets, in which the Bluejays should make a creditable showing. Page 208 WM mwmmmmk Minor Sports IN January, 1922, numerous golf enthusiasts of the University assembled at the office of the Athletic Director and laid plans for the first golf tournament in the history of athletics at Creighton. An intercollegiate match was arranged with the University of Nebraska for May 28, 1923. The State University, displaying an unusual brand of collegiate golf, took this match and was awarded the Bogardus cup, offered by P. H. Bogardus, prominent Omahan, and a devotee of the game. Golf was recognized by the Department of Athletics as a minor sport, and letters were granted to the following men: Edwards, Medicine, ' 25; Murphy, Arts, ' 24; McCarthy, Medicine, ' 24, and La Pierre, Medicine, ' 24; Fagan, Arts, ' 25, Manager.

SHADOWS, The Creighton University Magazine, made its first appearance on the campus in December, nineteen hundred and twenty-two. With that issue, it sup- planted the Creighton Chronicle, a literary magazine, which had appeared at monthly intervals for a number of years. It was generally felt by the students that a formal literary publication, such as the Chronicle purported to be, was no longer adequate. They desired something more inti- mate, something that would afford them a better opportunity to express their ideals, and something that would be of interest to the entire student body. After considering these things, the Chronicle staff determined to publish such a magazine, and at the same time to maintain a high standard of literary excellence. George W. Koehn was selected as the first Managing Editor, and Paul A. Koehn was appointed Business Manager. It was under the able leadership of George Koehn that Shadows became firmly established. He decided that the magazine should be made up largely of articles written by students from all departments of the University, together with Short-Stories, Poetry and Humor. The first number took the campus by storm. All departments were one in the opinion that it was the greatest thing of the year at Creighton. But he did not stop there. He realized that if the magazine was to live, there must be a competent staff to carry on the work which he had begun. From this staff, he chose J. Timothy Gannon for his assistant managing editor. Tim Gannon proved himself to be an excellent leader. Coming into power in September, nineteen twenty-three, he was confronted by the problem of piloting Shadows through the second, and perhaps the hardest year of its existence. Keeping in harmony with the ideals of its founder, and without hampering in any way his own individuality, he gave the student body a publication which it wiH be difficult to equal in the future. His untiring zeal in discovering latent talent throughout the University, the excellent judgment exercised by his assistant, Lambert A. Hoch, in the makeup of the magazine, together with the co-operative efforts of the entire staff, has won for Shadows th e good will of the entire University. With such precedents to follow, great things are expected from the Shadows ' staffs of the future. rwc 217 P U B L I C A T I O N S N. J. PlETRUS, Business Manager. G. E. Denbow, Alumni. V. D. Martin.

Page 218 P U B L I C A T O N S The Review THE REVIEW is a volume published annually by the students of Creighton College of Pharmacy. It features student life, both in pic- t ures and in print, as well as college activities, organizations and ac- complishments. The first volume of the Review was published in the spring of 1920, work having been begun the previous fall. Dr. John Ortman was the first editor and Mr. E. Reed Oakley was Business Manager. Dean New- ton acted as advisor and financial manager. The combined efforts of these three men, together with the aid of the student body, published a volume which was heralded as a remarkable achievement, not only because of what it portrayed but because it was to be the flame which kindled the spirit re- sponsible for this year ' s publication of the Bluejay, as well as other Univer- sity periodicals. Since 1920 the Review has been published successfully each year, the present issue being the fifth volume. Mr. Joseph L. Nikolai and Mr. Nor- bert J. Pietrus are editor and business manager. The primary object of the Review was to procure a collection of up-to- date photographs of the University, its buildings and campus. In this respect it was very valuable as all the pictures obtainable at that time were not true representations of the institution, but were old and did not portray the improve- ments which had taken place. Creighton College of Pharmacy, always being ready to join the onward march of progress and being ready to accomplish bigger and better things, will cease to edit the Review, concentrating its efforts on the more compre- hensive book, namely, the Bluejay, which is being published for the first time this year. The College of Pharmacy entertains a certain amount of pride in this work because it feels that in an indirect way it has furnished the inspira- tion for this book. Though The Review will never be edited again, certain ideals which this book has attained will ever reign at the College. It is with deep regret that we, as students, see the passing of an achievement which has been very effect- ive in creating university spirit and keeping college traditions. However, in the editing of the Bluejay the college experiences a new joy, which it is certain will do much to boost Creighton, not because Creighton is bigger, but because it is better. y. L. Nikolai, ' 24. } Page 2 9 P U B L I C A T I O N S The Bluejay THE publication of the Bluejay is essentially the product of an awakening of the Creighton student body. Two years ago, the Law and Dental departments were transferred to the Hilltop campus. It was the opportunity thus offered Creighton stu- dents of closer association which kindled the spirit of The New Creighton. The first tangible benefit of this awakening was the formation of the Students ' Union, which provided the necessary machinery for achieving the unprecedented undertaking of a univer- sity annual. Such is the background which must be kept in view in this history of the 1924 Bluejay. The students of Creighton University had long desired such a book. In the past, other efforts to achieve a university annual had been made, but they did not materialize, due to the absence of a unified student body. With the introduction of the Students ' Union at Creighton, a new era was entered upon. The spirit of The New Creighton function- ing through the mechanism of a well co-ordinated student body prompted the decisive step which made possible the Bluejay. The second Board of Governors is to be credited with this step. Numerous difficulties had to be met and overcome through the successive stages of the first Bluejay. Believing that it would be unwise to delegate the book ' s publication to some other organization, which would not be financially responsible, the Union Board, after careful deliberation, decided to retain the direct control of the book. It seemed more practical, in this first venture at least, to allow the Board to assume full responsibility, both financial and literary, since the project of publishing Creighton ' s first annual was an unfalh- omed experiment, and a suitable plan for an editorial staff not directly controlled by the Board, which would work in perfect co-ordination with the financially responsible Gov- ernors could not be devised on the spur of the moment. But this did not prevent the ap- pointment of numerous editors to build the different sections of the book. Every depart- ment of the University was represented in this selection. No precedent of former years could be followed as a guide. 1 he construction of an annual was a new undertaking for Creighton students. It was the spirit of co-operation which the student body displayed and the conviction that after the first year book had been produced successive volumes could be more easily built, with a tangible precedent to follow that spurred on those who were pio- neers in annual-building at Creighton. Those responsible for the 1924 Bluejay submit this volume in the hope that it may serve as a foundation for Bluejays that are to follow. It is not intended to represent a highly skilled piece of workmanship, such as might be produced, after several decades of year-book evolution, at other universities, where annuals have become a strongly entrenched tra- dition. If this volume but serves to inspire a similar tradition at Creighton, the publication of the 1924 Bluejay will have been worth-while. Brendan F. Brown, ' 24. Joseph Ball Asst. Business Mgr.

Those who have had the opportunity to watch the progress of the University musical organ- izations report that there has been more interest shown, and better work done, in music this year than at any time in the history of Creighton. This increase in musical activity and excellence is, in a very large measure, due to the energy and patience of Director Henry G. Cox. Mr. Cox ' s efforts have been devoted for several years to the task of raising musical standards at Creighton. Every fellow who has been connected with the University musical activities will testify that those efforts have been given in a fine spirit of solicitude and sacrifice. Mr. Cox has enjoyed the helpful co-operaton of Father Schmidt, Faculty Direclor of Music, and the industry of the best talent in the University, in his task of putting Creighton on the musical map. If this year ' s showing may be taken as an index, his efforts are in a fair way to meet success. THE ORCHESTRA. Henry G. Cox, Director. Albert Rettenmaier, President.

Formerly, every University man who wanted to sing and who could carry a tune was welcomed into the Club. This year, however, the Club is lim ' ted strictly to sixteen men. Mr. Cox believed, when he introduced the plan, that he could get better work done by refining the membership. At the same time he made provision for those men who want to sing but who are not quite as well favored with vocal talent as their neighbor. This plan has worked out extremely well. Those who heard the Club in their an- nual May concert at the Brandeis this year, pronounced the singing to be of a very high order, and a noticeable irrprovement over that of previous years. This concert was the The Camfius Chorus high point of a very busy year. The Club sung at various meetings of the different civic clubs of Omaha, at the Marquette game, and at other University functions. Two radio programs from Station WOAW helped to advertise Creighton and Creighton music. The formation of a Campus Chorus which would not be limited in its membership and which would sing the less difficult music, was an important part of Mr. Cox ' s plan to give Creighton more and better music. This organization met regularly every week and had a rousing sing. Several members of this year ' s Glee Club were picked from the Campus Chorus. It is expected that the Campus Chorus will serve in the future as a school for Glee Club material. ' 224 THE UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRA performed a very important function in school life this year. It shared honors with the Glee Club at the Brandeis Concert and on the radio programs. The Orchestra was always on hand at the various func- tions held in the University Auditorium, and was always a main cog in putting them over. The Band was on the job at every football and basketball game this year, and con- tributed its bit to the spirit of the occasion. Without the Band to give the college spirit, many a game could have become dull. Cornets : John Otte Sylvester Tihen Elmer SchwinKhamer James Coston Al Rettenmaier E. C.

Mr. Charles Costello, Professor of Expression, was appointed director of the Club. The membership of the organization was recruited from among those who had taken part in previous Uni- versity productions. Turn to the Right, by Winchell Smith was presented in the Uni- versity Auditorium for two nights, beginning December 19. The same play was given over the radio on February 6, and at Norfolk, Neb., for two nights beginning February 22. Three Wise Fools was presented in the University Auditorium late in May. The presentation of the Passion Play look the place of a third production the Club had planned. Charles Costello Director I ' aul FitzGibbon President S. A. Si)itzna rle Business Manager B. H.

FINE ARTS The Passion Play THE greatest thing ever achieved in Omaha dramatic circles, was the verdict given the University ' s production of the Passion Play, pre- sented at the Brandeis Theatre for four nights, be- ginning April I 6. The Play was written by Fa- ther Michael Gorman, S. J., of the University faculty. Mr. Charles Costello, Director of the Creighton University Dramatic Club, directed the presentation. His energy and ability were largely responsible for its success. The Play, which is in four acts and ten scenes, is mainly a faithful recital of the principal events of the Passion. The first two scenes serve as an introduction to the story of the Passion proper. The rest deals with the watch in the Garden, the betrayal of Judas, the flight of the Apostles, the bribery of Judas by Caiphas and the High Priests, the hanging of Judas, the mob before Pilate, and the march to Calvary. Three tableaux aid in the development of the story. The Play was received here with the same enthusiasm that was shown in Milwaukee and Denver, where it had previously been produced. Packed houses saw the Play on all four nights. The costuming and setting were particularly impressive. The Omaha Bee had the following to say of the Play: Father M. J. Gorman has shown excellent literary ability and the most commend- able of taste in the writing of ' The Passion Play. ' Members of the Creighton University Dramatic Club who gave intelligent and con- vincing life to the characters, and so put over the message of the author, are also worthy of highest praise for their efforts. Mr. J. Shannahan ' s Azarias, Mr. J. Hinchey ' s Josiah, and Mr. S. Neary ' s Pilate present the best sustained characters in the long list of speaking parts. Mr. C. Costello as John and Mr. R. Patton as Peter were also very effective in their presentation of these two; indeed, the group of disciples was generally excellent. Mr. L. D- Cavanaugh as Caiaphas and Mr. C. Docherty as Judas wrestled mightily with roles that would tax the powers of the ablest of actors, and for the whole of their effort deserve warmest commendation. Father Gorman has attempted in the dramatization of the Passion the most difficult, and at the same time, most worthwhile subject in the realm of drama That he has succeeded so well in telling the story in such an inter- esting fashion without offending tradition, is a remarkable achievement. Omaha is extremely fortunate for having seen this spectacle, and Creighton University doubly so for having had the opportunity of presenting it.

Following this enlargement of membership, came a demand for a varsity debating team. Consequently, on No- vember I 5 a team was picked from a field of thirty-five aspirants. The members of the team are: Fred White, Law, ' 24; Brendan Brown. Law. ' 24; Robert Patton. Law, ' 25 ; and Lester Palmer, Law. ' 26, alternate. Two debates were scheduled for the year, the first with Des Moines U and the second with South Dakota U, both of which Creighton won by unanimous decisions of the judges. The Creighton Oratorical Association, and Professor Thurber Smith, S. }.. who directed the work, are to be congratulated for turning out a team of such high caliber. It is an indication that there is a great future in the debating field for the members of the association. A. J. Morrissey ALBERT J. MORRISSEY, WINNER OF ORATORICAL CONTEST The annual Creighton Oratorical contest was won this year by Albert J. Morrissey. This is considered one of the highest honors in the University. The Oratorical contest is an old and established tradition. The winner of this contest is given a gold medal and also has the honor of representing Creighton in the state oratorical contest. Creighton orators have consistently placed in the contests held during the last ten years. Mr. Morrissey merited sec- ond place this year in the state contest which was held at Has- tings, Neb. Page 232 TWf Arts Debating Team Thomas Russell, ' 24. Francis Charvat, ' 24. CREIGHl ON was again represented in the Missouri Province Debating League by a strong Arts team. This league was organized two years ago for the purpose of encouraging debating in the colleges and universities in the province. It is made up of the twelve colleges and universities in the Missouri province. The province is divided into four sections of three schools each. The championship of each section is determined by elimination debates. The four district winners then debate in the semi-finals. The final debate is held between the two teams winning in the semi-finals. A silver cup is given the province champions. Only stu- dents in the department of Arts and Science are eligible for the teams in this league. In 1923, Creighton went into the finals after defeating St. Louis University and St. Mary ' s College. The contest for the championship of the province was lost to John Carrol University at Cleveland by a two-to-one decision. This year Creighton again won from St. Louis University by a unanimous decision. Our championship hopes were crushed in the second round by a defeat at the hands of the Loyola University team at Chicago by a decision of two to one. On the return trip from Chicago the team met the Iowa University team at Iowa City in a no-decision debate. The question debated in the Missouri Province League was: Resolved, That the United States should enter the World Court under the plan advocated by President Harding. Creighton upheld the affirmative of the question in all debates. The members of this year ' s team were Thomas Russell, Arts, ' 24; Francis Charvat, Arts, ' 24, and Francis Fogarty, Arts, ' 26, alternate. The team was coached by Professor Thurber Smith, S. J., to whom much credit is due for its splendid showing. STUDENT MANAGER OF DEBATING John J. Flanagan has been manager of debating for the last two years. Much credit must be given him for the devel- opment of inter-collegiate debating at Creighton in that time He has been an active member of the Oratorical Association for the last four years, and has always had the best interests of the society at heart. He served as treasurer of the association in 1922, and acted as its representative at the annual meeting of the Nebraska Inter-Collegiate Forensx Association in 1923. John J.

Gannon Secretary B. H. Jacobberger Treasurer AS its name implies, this association trains its members to readiness and fluency in speaking before an audience. The association was organized in 1884 and has steadily grown till at present it is one of the foremost organizations of the University. In 1899 it was admitted to the Nebraska Inter-Collegiate Association, the name of which was later changed to the Nebraska Inter-Collegiate Forensic Association, and has annually sent a representative to take part in the state contest in oratory. The Association not only fosters oratory, but debating as well, and each year teams of high caliber are put in the field of inter-collegiate debating. At each weekly meeting a debate is held, followed by an open discussion from the house. A noticeable feature in the development of the association this year was its expansion so as to take in all departments of the University. During the past year the Association has sent forth from the ranks of its members two debating teams which have engaged in five inter-collegiates. all sponsored by the Society. The big event of the year is the Annual Public Debate in May. Both teams for this debate are picked from the members of the Oratorical Association. MEMBER.S OK A.SSOCIATION M. Abrahams E. Deiter F.

The purpose of the club as announced by the constitution is to promote learning, to inculcate and perpetuate a true school spirit in the students of the law college, to advance the teachings and influence of our school, and to provide social entertainment for its members. This club puts up candidates for the annual election of Speaker of the Model House.

Since that time the members of the original club have scattered through the entire university and it now numbers Law, Arts and Medical students among its members. The club gives several dances for members and guests each year, and the annual Crustacea Club Banquet closes the activities at the end of each school year. Page 267 The Iowa Club OFFICERS Bob Carroll, Mason City President Ambrose Kerwin, Carroll Vice President Alvin Goeser. Westphalia Secretary Walter Holden, Scranton Treasurer THE largest state organization at Creighton is the Iowa Club, an association of stu- dents whose bona fide residences are in the state of Iowa. The organization, formed only last year, has filled a long felt desire on the part of the Hawlceyes for some in- strument through which they might assemble for social purposes and further bind the ties of friendship with their next door neighbors. The Iowa Club boasts of a roll call of 250 members, who represent practically every county in the state, many from counties bordering on the great Mississippi. Tne organization manifested its usefulness the past year when it combatted a pernicious measure in the Iowa Legislature which would have been detrimental to dental students attending Creighton University. The social calendar of the organization has always been well filled, and the success of its smokers, parties, and dances can be measured by the desire of the entire student body to attend. One of the Club ' s proudest possessions is the Iowa Corn Song, and the chest of every corn fed can be seen to swell as he sounds off with — We ' re from I-O-WAY, I-O-WAY; We ' ll have you understand It ' s the best state in the land. Oh. we ' re from I-O-WAY— That ' s where the tall corn grows. • -l O R C A N I Z A T I O N S 1 T y - CF: THIS is an organization of students from the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast section of our country. Its membership includes men from Montana, Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Washing- ton, and Cahfornia.

Officers William Barry Paul Kehoe James Walz Eugene St. Pierre THE purpose of the Sodality of Professional Students is to unite the Catholic stu- dents in the exercise of their common faith and by mutual encouragement to furnish a strong mcentive to its members to strive after and attain that strong piety so desir- able at the present time. It affords many excellent means for the perfecting of the Catholic professional man. No Catholic activity is considered foreign to its members. Mass is celebrated every Sunday morning at 9:15, at which a practical talk is given and the office of the Blessed Virgin is recited. St. Francis Xavier is secondary patron. Under the auspices of the Sodality a three-day retreat is given every year for all the Catholic students of the University. Piiiic 270 «- ' .!•- Sodality of Arts and Science Students Rev. C. E.

Dieter Sacristan William B. Flanagan Sacristan John J. Schoenfelder Sacristan J. V. Berther Sacristan The Sodality is an organization of Catholic students who propose to aim at a more than ordinary degree of earnest and practical Christian virtue. To attain this end, the principal means employed is devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, by study and imitation of her virtues, and by practices of piety in her honor: because the Mother of Christ, who was so intimately associated with Him during His earthly life, in the work of redemption, is still close to Him in Heaven and is intensely active and powerful for our sanctification. The purpose of the Sodality aims at instructing the members in methods of Christian zeal and charity, and stimulating them to the performance of social works. The result is to make them devout Christians and men of action such as the social needs of the present day demand. Mass is celebrated every Sunday morning at 8:15 in the College Chapel, and the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin is recited and instruction is given by the Director. V - 271 m Brendan Brown Medalist ORGANIZATIONS The Chess Club IN December, the Creighton Union Chess Club was or- ganized under the auspices of the Students ' Union. James Callahan, freshman Arts, was made president for the year. A tourney was held during January and February. The twenty- four contestants were divided into two brackets; sixteen players represented the Arts department, and eight men the Law. No entrants were received from Pharmacy, Medicine, or Dentistry. The Tournament — Gym Club Rooms In the Arts ' bracket, George Bang, freshman, was the champ, and Henry Leermakers, sophomore, was the conso- lation winner. From the Law bracket, emerged Brendan Brown, Sen- ior, and President of the Creighton Student Union. He defeated Bang, in a five-game match, thereby winning the gold medal and the first Creighton University Chess Cham- pionship. The tournament, which was a success from start to fin- ish, will be an annual activity. Jas. Callahan, Manager iS O R C A N I Z A T I O N S The Counsellors Club OFFICERS A. E.

IV ' f S) Exclusively Creighton is the by-word of this important cog in the ma- chinery of Creighton ' s social world. The organization is strictly social in its activities, oflermg to University students a series of dances throughout the school year at the fashionable Blackstone Hotel. To say that the dances are popular would be like saying that Niagara is a waterfall. You would cover the subject, but not very thoroughly. The ball- room at the Blackstone is large, but not large enough to accommodate the guests of the Counsellors. The place overflows. A girl ' s popularity among the stu- dents is judged solely by the number of Counsellors ' dances she attends. A man ' s social standing on the Hilltop is severely threatened if he does not attend regularly. In a word the dances given by the club are the affairs of the season. The floor is always good, the music excellent, the crowd happy. It is im- possible to go to a Counsellors ' dance and not have a good time. The organization is a Law College product. It originated with the class of ' 23 when they were in their Freshman year, as the Creighton Barristers ' club. The charter members met with great success and continued to hold the reins throughout their three years in the Law school. Upon graduation of the class of ' 23, the club was turned over to the incoming Senior class. It was reorgan- ized as The Counsellors ' Club and has upheld the high standards set by the charter members. Membership in the club is held bv the entire Senior class of the Law Col- lege, and the officers are appointed by the class president.

Page 276 RESERVE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS The Spirit of the R. O. T. C. Down through the ages, the mihtary has been in the foreground of every nation ' s history. It has ever been, and shall continue forever to be, the inspiring motive of the nation ' s greatest legends. It vs as the military which emancipated our nation in 1776; which preserved our nation in 1812; which prevented the dissolution of our union in 1 861 ; and which proved the United States to be one of the world ' s leading powers in 1917. In the winter of 1916, on the eve of our participation in the world war, the United States government passed the National Defense Act. Among the many provisions of this act was the stipulation that a Reserve Officers Training Corps should be created. The purpose of the R. O. T. C. is to train students during peace time for the leadership of men in the time of war. It creates a fund of reserve military strength, ever ready to defend our nation in times of danger. Creighton University is very proud of the Creighton R. O. T. C. This unit has caught the true spirit of the military, and is continually advancing toward perfection. Two years ago there was only one man m the advanced corps graduating class. This year twelve men become eligible for United States Reserve Lieutenancies. Within the next two or three years there will be an annual graduating class of ten thousand Reserve Offi- cers in the United States. The Regular Army and the National Guard are indispensable factors in our defense. For war, they put the first divisions in the field, but their total is a minor fraction of our first mobilization. The Reserve constitutes the great mass to mobilize behind the Regular Army and the National Guard. The Officers Reserve Corps is the life blood of the reserve system, and the R. O. T. C. is the great feeder of the O. R. C. The R. O. T. C. is sound in principle. It is indispensable to our defense plan. It develops mind, body, and character. It must succeed. •) Page 277 M - RESERVE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS A S A MEANS OF DEVELOPING mind, body and character, mili- tary traming merits earnest consideration. The development of the individual is, however, not the most important function of the R. O. T. C. The Army of the United States consists of the Regular Army, the National Guard and the Organized Reserves. The Regular Army and the National Guard form our first line of defense behind which, in the event of war with any great power, would be organized our great citizen armies. The Organized Reserves is necessarily a highly skeletonized organization. That element which gives life and vitality to this skeleton organization is the Officers Reserve Corps, composed almost entirely at the present time of veterans of the World War. The R. O. T. C. is the great feeder for the Officers Reserve Corps. It is the principal source from which future officers will be drawn to replace the veterans of the World War, who can not serve indefinitely. The vital importance of the R. O. T. C. in our scheme of national defense is obvious. This, then, is the primary purpose of the R. O. T. C. — preparedness against - yU. I JhUuc vu.

As a freshman, we are taught what this here dentistry means, and much to our dis- gust we find it is a pretty tough course, but decide tc stick (as long as the Drs. let us, anyway), most of the freshmen thinking, Gee, we are getting ' gyped, ' as skule gets four years of extracting, while the poor student gets but 1 , meaning, of course, that the skule does the extracting on our pocket-book annually, while we students wait till we reach the Senior year, and then the school, being kind of ashamed of wrestling with our already flattened pocket-book, lets us extract for experience — in the meantime — the emphasis be- ing on the mean in regard to such studies as Anatomy, Dissecting, and a few other easy (?) subjects. Of course, as long as the students come in as dense and spend four years becoming dents, and although these words sound alike, You ' d be sur- prised (for a dime) at what four years can do. I will now try to show you what a snap this dentistry business is. as for example, the Freshmen don ' t have to do much only try to be present every day and absorb all they can, and to buy gowns so as to see what they look like as Drs. and, of course, learn as to how fast plaster can get hard, and then try to carve teeth, so as to look anything but natural, also being asked would they please buy some instruments, which, by the way, are bought unseen and which really doesn ' t make any difference, as by the time the Freshman becomes an upper classman these instruments being not present, being due to maybe losing them out of their pockets or giving them away, etc. When you have put in The First Year, and which, by the way, is not to be associated vith marriage — meaning that the first year as a dent is not so strenuous. Next, we become Sophomores, the skule again being the operator, doing the extract- ing on our bank account; after this we try to show what good freshmen we were — some being good and others being different. About this time, we are exposed to Chemistry and are asked would we please lake it by Dr. Crowley — we. thinking it is easy, feel very proud at his kindness and thus are given some unknowns — meaning would we find out what does the bottle contain (we always know what some bottles contain), nobody saying anything that would help the other fellow, and Dr. Crowley loo king wise and saying nothing. Some of the boys thinking Gee-heck, what ' s this to do with dentistry? And after much time, most of the boys solving their unknown by the Navy Test — meaning that they have good eyes, being able to know different colors, when they .see them. Some of us being so hilarious as they would cause Dr. Crowley to say Ott-Paynter throw Yech-out, we not answering, of course. Well, the Sophomores plug on and on (mean- ing on books, etc.), as the real plugging comes in the clinic. At last the Junior year is upon us, and we are s ' posed to be at least half smart, although one of the boys. Garland O ' Connor is not half smart; for example, he asks me ■, + Because we know so little of the road ahead, it pays to save as we journey on. j Northwest i Corner MAHA LOAN BUILDING ASSOCIATION 15th and Dodge Sts.

In regard to the rest of ou: class they all seem normal except Paynter, who has to sleep late in the morning, and who has a pull with the Dean, this being proved when Floyd was asked would he stand up for one whole period and be recognized. Murphy also would have had this honor ih usl on him, but was not able to be present, as his occurred in the A. M., and Mu.phy is taking a rest cure, and one cannot let school interfere with health and pleasure. The only difference between a Jr. v. a Sr. is a year, and also there is this difference, a Jr. saying: Gee, I hope they have me come back next year, wh:!c the Sr. says ;us ' the opposite, which goes to show that a human being can never be satisfied. This also can be proved by showing that some people like to see games, etc., while others go to see Charlie Chaplin. We will now have a song entitled, My Budde, by his mother. Amick refuses to . J . -I J buy newspapers. Well, in fact, he IS very well re(a)d. We have just organized a couple of ball teams in the dentical school called the shirt and collar team, everybody expecting the game to come out a tie. Well, getting back to dentistry, which is always a grind and which, we hope, will be a crowning success for us all. There are many interest- ing points in dentistry — if you can talk the demonstrator out of them; for example, gold inlays, which is gold that is s ' posed to cast as you want it, but which is like cheap clothes, they both shrink, the only difference being, thai the clothes would be too short to wear any longer, and the gold too short to wear at all. Another fine point is taking the bite, which is s ' posed to be done by the student so as to put his patient back on the old grind, bul .vhich the student generally gels whe working on kids, showing thai some people have foo much bile, while others have not any.
