The latter has, there- fore, a twofold purpose: To allow during odd and leisure moments of future days recollections and memories of the various events and friendships and, secondly, to have such moulded into permanent and lasting history. But in the 1930 Blue-Jay it is the aim that this retrospect be more extensive even though the unified theme of the book is Progress. .V Back into those crude but romantic, hazardous yet adventurous days before the time of our wonderful school and when this surround- ing country was undeveloped we turn for the seat and inspiration of our theme, to the advent and activity of the Creightons. Every step that these empire builders took is intimately woven into this, our school, which bears their name. Considerable illus- tration throughout the book is all symbolic of events concerning their achievements. It is with the hope, therefore, that the his- tory of the current year shall be only inci- dental and that some new reason may be found for knowing and loving better the founders and builders of Creighton and that a greater University may result, that we have selected as the motif of the 1930 Blue-Jay, Progress.

J 00 k I coadministration - -- -- -- -- -- -- - (5VaRIOUS activities oc- cupied the earlier years of the hves of Edward and John Creighton — there were the covered wagon days, river- boating and overland freight- ing — but it was the construc- tion and introduction into the new and recently devel- oped lands of the infant in- vention of the times, the tele- graph, which ultimately pro- vided their entry into other activities. In seeking the new country these pioneers had their share of trou- ble with the hostile Indians. In their freighting and likewise in the construction of their various telegraph lines the two Creigh- ton brothers found the Redmen to be a considerable menace. 13 V ▼ ▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼T HI |[c  i g i€ii r abT«fiUTt.s,T.jy Iwy i y iny T ;soT« s T m i REVEREND WILLIAM H.

It pictures to you ( O the development that has been continual from the days of the Covered Wagon to the advent of the Airplane. You also have made progress during the years you have spent at Creighton. You have made this progress because you have availed yourselves of the opportunities and facilities which have been made possible for you of the present generation by those valiant men, educators and mission- aries, self-sacrificing heroes who braved the toils and difficulties of the Covered Wagon Era to bring civilization and culture to the West. Creighton has been for you a cherishing mother who has striven by means of her curriculum, her teachers, her student organizations and all extra-curricular activities, to instill into your hearts an ardent love of God, of Country, of Church, of your Fellow Man. She has en- deavored to prepare you for the service of mankind. She has watched you develop into learned, high-minded and honorable men and citizens. In her moral and religious training she has aimed always at building your conscience for the ri,ght fulfilment of your civil, social and re- ligious duties, and to this end she has given you instruction in the prin- ciples of religion which form the only solid basis of virtue and moral- ity. Seniors, it is not without a feeling of pride that we send you forth to take your places in the world of business, education, and the pro- fessions. You have merited well, and your Alma Mater honors you in your graduation. Go forth, bearing your responsibilities. May you carry peace and happiness and success into the lives of all those whom you shall serve, and may God ' s blessings be upon you always.

This Board is representative of the backing that the University has among the outsiders of the school. It is composed of some of the most prominent and success- ful business men of Omaha and the mid-west and as a consequence they remain a potent factor in the success of Creighton. They are ambassadors for the school to the outside world. This group, though always busy in their own personal capacities, are willing and painstaking in their efforts to establish the name of Creighton more firmly in the citizens ' mind. Through their various business connections they have added much to the University ' s progress as a growing institution. The roster of the Board includes: The Rev. William H. Agnew, S. J., Presi- dent of the University; William J. Coad, president, Omaha Flour Mills Company; Frank J. Burkley, president, Burkley Envelope and Printing Company; Fred Hamil- ton, vice president, Omaha National Bank; Charles T. Kountze, vice president, First National Bank. Fred Hamilton Frank J.

These men, long tested through actual service to Creighton, are the real powers of the institution. The future and present success is vested in these individuals and not once have they failed to raise the name of Creighton higher among the great schools and colleges of the country. They represent all the different departments of the school and a perfect harmony has been established as the result of their many and varied efforts. Headed by the Rev. William H. Agnew, S.

Their scope of activity embraces the student welfare and conduc- tion of all affairs of the Univrsity, from the Athletic Department to the University Library. As representative of the student body, the Rev. J. A. Herbers, S. J., Dean of Men, is the most influential factor of the group, with the interests of the student forever at heart. Known by everyone, the advice and counsel of Father Herbers is always heeded and welcomed. The Rev. A. F. X. Esterman, S.

FLYNN, S. J. T ean HE close of this scholastic term marks the end of the fifty-first year of continuous service of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. It would be a hazard to indulge in a re- trospect of those years. To do so would draw a merited complaint from many an Alumnus who could justly instance more than one important omission. Rather, let us accept the glorious herit- age, and possessed of its spirit, look to the future for a larger expansion of the herit- age with its privileges and its prestige. Fifty years ago, the esteemed Founders, Edward and Mary, John and Emily Creighton, planned that the students of the College should be recruited from all ranks of society. The students came. And who will not say that through these students, Creighton established itself as a potent factor in the development of the West. Then, and in the succeeding years, it invited the sons of the pioneers to the uplands of learning and the pride in its achievement is surely pardonable. The bachelors ' degree is no longer an adequate testimony of completed work. By it the lower levels of scholarship have been attained, but the heights are calling to the ambitious. Graduate study with its specialization and research beckons the under- graduate onward and upward. The sons of Creighton must become the leaders of American thought and the directors of the Greater America. They must contribute their share to raise the intelligence of the people, produce a few of the great leaders of tomorrow and add their quota to the sum of human knowledge. Rev. Joseph C. Flynn, S.

Considered as the heart of the University, the Arts College, which was the first of the many benefactions of the Creigh- tcn family, was established in 1878. The original Arts College building at Twenty-fifth and Califor- nia streets is still standing and comprises the mid- dle section of the present College of Arts and Sciences. It contains the Offices of Administration, the home of the Jesuit Faculty, the Creighton Uni- versity High School, and the Arts College. In ad- dition to its numerous recitation rooms the building contains modernly equipped laboratories for the Departments of Chemistry and Physics as well as spacious reading and reference room in connection with the University Library which contains about 50,000 volumes available for student use. One of the landmarks of the Creighton campus is the Astronomical Observatory which is located most advantageously to command an unusually extensive sky. Equipped with a five-inch equatorial, a three-inch transit, a micrometer, and an ex- tensive library, the Observatory is truly the rendezvous where planets are brought to the portals of inquiring minds. Perhaps the fastest growing department of the Arts College is the Graduate School, which has control of all graduate work carried on in the University. It aims to offer advanced courses and apportunities for reseach in the various departments of the University and its development has been essential in the building of a greater Creighton. The Graduate School is under the direction of Acting Dean H. F. Fore, who came to Creighton in the fall of 1928. HARRY F. FORE oActing T ean of the Graduate School Hugh M. P. Higgins Seniors Fred P.

WALSH T ean HE keynote of present day American busi- 2 sounded in the recent report of the President ' s Commission on Recent Economic Changes. Especially emphasized was the point that there have been no basic recent eco- nomic changes, but that business today is charact- erized by an increased tempo all along the line. Never was there greater need for enlightened leadership than at the present time. Keen competition makes demands upon every organization for greater econ- omics, greater efficiency and more effective management in every phase of business, whether merchandising, operating, or financial. The larger business organizations grow, the more dependent they necessarily become on accounting and statistical in- formation to guide them in formulating policies and handling their affairs. The young man entering business today needs as never before a broad training in the fundamental principles of economics and business administration, and at the same time a thorough working knowledge of the practical application of these prin- ciples to the various branches of industry, commerce and finance. Second only in importance to enlightened leadership in business, is the necessity for an enlightened public. This can only be assured when newspaper workers are trained in the fundamentals of journalism, super-imposed on a sound economic and social background. Floyd E.

This college is the youngest of the University group. The four-year course offered comprises two natural divisions, the first two years being devoted to the attainment of a broad cultural background and to furnish such training in the fundamental principles of business as will prepare and fit the student for the intensive analysis re- quired by the highly specialized commerce courses pursued during his final two years. The advantages of location of the school in a large industrial and commercial center makes for close contacts with actual business affairs and it is these contacts that materially assist the student in determining his particular field in the realm of modern business. The Rev. Thomas A. Egan, S. J., is Regent, and Floyd E. Walsh, A. M., B. S. C. is Dean of the College. REV. THOMAS A. EGAN, S. J. I egent Raymond Van Overschelde F. E.

HUGH HIPPLE •Dean The College of Dentistry ELIEVING that dentistry is an important branch of health service, the Q _J Dental College aims to prepare its students to practice their profession in accordance with modern ideas regarding the prevention and treatment of disease. Without overlooking the necessity for thorough training in the various technical procedures that are called for in the practice of dentistry, an ever increasing emphasis is being placed upon the teaching of the medical sciences as a foundation for specializing in oral work. Teaching facilities are being increased from time to time by the purchase of new equipment, and in every way the College is endeavoring to keep abreast of the times in dental education. A. H. HiPPLE, Dean. [20] e I G OCSOCSDCSDC OCSOCSOCSOCS9CSDCSOr7SOC CSOCSOC Located in the newest building on the campus, which unbiased opinions state is the best arranged and equipped for its size in the nation, and main- taining within its walls the finest of school spirit and ideals of service as well as the oldest of tradi- tions, the Creighton University is proud to num- ber among its departments the College of Dentistry. More than six hundred graduates have gone out into the professional world since the organization of the College in 1905 (when it replaced the Omaha Dental Colloge) and the progress of the majority of Creighton dentists reflects the excellence of the training received during their collge years. Creigh- ton has consistently turned o ut dentists to whose work and conduct she can point with pride. The spirit of Creighton is well exemplified by many of the professors of the College of Dentistry who have given years of their lives in service to the University and students. Dean A. Hugh Hippie ' s record is one of thirty-four years of con- tinuous service. He held the chair of oral surgery at the Medical School from 1895 to 1905 and then came to the newly organized College of Dentistry to occupy the chair of operative dentistry. It was in 1908 that he was appointed Dean. Dr. Charles F. Crowley, A. M., M. D., Ph. C, LL. D., who has been with the Dental College since its organization, has among his notable achievements the per- formance of the first X-ray in Nebraska, in 1896 — perhaps the first in the middle west. He is professor of Chemistry and Metallurgy, as well as chemist for the City of Omaha, and is a nationally recognized scientist. REV. T. H. AHEARN, S. J. Leo J. Ripp Seniors D. J. Kennedy Juniors J.

TE POEL T ean The School of Law ' HE pride of the Creighton Law School is its Ubrary, which numbers some 35,000 carefully chosen volumes. It is a well- balanced collection, with the emphasis placed on the up-to-the-minute books which make accessible the law of today. The historical aspect, however, has not been overlooked, for a large part of one floor in the stack section is devoted to ancient books and documents which carry the research student back to medieval England — back to the days when the great system of Common Law was taking root. Beginning with the Yearbook of 1307 in the reign of Edward II, the books on Creighton ' s shelves trace the progress of the Common Law through the centuries down to the decisions at current terms of court in English speaking jurisdictions the world over. There are some larger law libraries than that of Creighton, but very few which offer a greater degree of usefulness to the student, for the Creighton Law library has 250 volumes for each student enrolled, a ratio which not many law school libraries exceed. The Creighton ideal of service is not limited to its student body alone. Members of the bar whose private libraries fail to yield the desired authorities on legal prob- lems are always welcome at the Creighton law library. L. J. TePoel, Dean. ltca TW  T«cuT. i i«c i iX T gu! .aoi. s uT gfaT T«iH r m [22] m itc«i TKsibi« T abT T«c T T aui s T iS Mi ;y y« g I ftbI M Twenty-six years have now elapsed since the Col- lege of Law was founded, with temporary head- quarters at the Medical School, and, despite this humble beginning, constant progress has marked its endeavor until today it is housed in a magnificent and well equipped edifice and keeps pace with the best of the nation ' s law colleges. It is rated Class A by the American Bar Association and is a mem- ber in the Association of American Law Schools. Graduates of the Creighton College of Law are ad- mitted to the Nebraska bar without examination. It may be truly said that every member of the Law teaching staff is outstanding in his particular field of endeavor. Particularly does this apply to Dean TePoel, who is recognized throughout the country as an authority upon equity, constitutional law, and municipal corporations, and who has not only served the city with his legal talents but also has rendered aid to the Federal government at various times. Creighton is one of the pioneers in the development of the practical side of legal training through the introduction of courses in moot court and legal bibliography. Although best known for its Law Library, which is ranked by many as being with- out a peer in the United States, the Law College possesses an outstanding feature in its Moot Court Room. It is here that all forms are pleaded by students, with seniors as attorneys, juniors as witnesses, and freshmen as jurors. Faculty members preside as judges and it is in this way that the students are familiarized with the proper method of conducting jury trials and develop an acquaintance with the various enigmatical phrases of litigation.

SCHULTE ' T)ean The School of Medicine f }-{E outstanding event of the session of (9 1929-1930 at the Medical School is the admission of a freshman class of ninety-six students. This signalizes the initiation of a policy of expansion which when completed will nearly double the size of the school. In anticipation, nec- essary changes in the buildings were made to in- crease the capacity of the laboratories, increased equipment for the first year was provided and the supply and service divisions were reorganized and increased in efficiency. The library was moved to more commodious quarters on the third floor of the south building taking the place of the old amphitheater long disused but vacantly reminiscent of out-moded methods of mass instruction. Notable also are the improvements in the dispensary. To improve laboratory instruction and stimulate a scientific attitude the system of student assistant ships has been introduced with a view to increasing the oppor- tunity of especially well qualified students to improve their fundamental education by a year spent in the work of a scientific department before advancing to the clinical work of the third year. It is felt that Creighton can grow into a large school, strengthening and improv- ing its instruction and afi-ording increased advantages and stimulation to its students without losing the intimate contact and co-operation between faculty and students which has characterized its traditions and expressed itself in those intangible but valued attitudes and sentiments which in the past have been essential elements of the Creigh- ton spirit.

The history of the Creighton College of Medi- cine is one of pride and progress. It was in the spring of 1892 that the Board of Trustees of the Creighton University, at the suggestion of John A. Creighton, who offered the funds for its mainten- ance, voted to open the school and a course requir- ing three years was offered. This was thirty-seven years ago. There were thirty-four matriculants and the faculty list contained twenty names. Classes were conducted in the Creighton Memorial St. Joseph ' s Hospital, the first units of which were com- pleted in that year at Tenth and Castelar streets, and the teaching facilities of the institution (found- ed in 1888 by Mrs. Sarah Emily Creighton) were permanently placed at the service of the faculty of the Medical School. The course was then the conventional one of the time requiring three years of eight calendar months; but in the second bulletin of the school we find a fourth year recommended and this, thereafter, became the requirement for graduation. In 1898 the present building was completed at Fourteenth and Davenport streets and the Col- lege has progressed from this beginning to the institution we know today — a tribute to the lives of those who have served it and worked in it either as student or teacher, investigator or executive. The school has ever striven to inculcate in its students a spirit of inquiry and search for new truths and improved methods. It endeavors to prepare them for the demands of general practice and to keep bright in them the human traditions of the profession in order that its motives of service might not be lost in the pursuit of learn- ing and the a cquisition of technical skill.

NEWTON ' Dean HIS is a period of great progress in the 2y practice of the profession of pharmacy. Probably none of the other ancient and honorable professions is progressing so rapidly. The educational requirements for admission to the pro- fession are being increased while the field of activity of its members is being constantly broadened. The alert college of today sends forth its graduates with a thorough training in the fundamental sciences of chemistry and biology as well as in the applied science of pharmacy. The more modern colleges of pharmacy recognize the commercial phases of the profession and equip their students with a knowledge of the scientific principles of business so that they may more readily become successful when, as graduates, they administer to the welfare of the public. This intensive scientific training received by the modern pharmacy student pre- sents opportunities for service that were denied to the pharmacist of several years ago. A recent survey conducted by a prominent professional journal discloses the fact that there are now over sixty different kinds of positions requiring the training obtained in the colleges of pharmacy and that these positions are being filled by the graduates of these colleges. The Creighton University College of Pharmacy, one of the larger colleges of pharmacy of the Middle West, is proud that it has been among the foremost in adopt- ing many of the newer ideas in formulating its curriculum and believes that the success of its graduates is due, in part, to this progressive attitude. Howard C. Newton, Dean. [26]. m ltKml SM i M.SM iMK TK§sJ S§ T 5  l X0 M Under the able leadership of its Dean, Howard C. Newton, Ph. G., the College of Pharmacy has made rapid progress in the last fifteen years. It is a member of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy, an organization the membership of which is limited to the institutions of the highest class as determined by their requirements for en- trance and graduation. The history of the College of Pharmacy dates back to 1905 when the Omaha College of Pharmacy was annexed to the Creighton University. Since that year a steady increase in enrollment has been enjoyed and the College has among its student- body representatives from nearly every state in the Union. In 1916, having been recognized as a Class A college, the Creighton College of Pharmacy became a member of the American Conference of Pharmaceutical Faculties and is also registered in the New York De- partment of Education and by the Boards of Pharmacy of Ohio and other states where registration books are maintained. In 1925, to retain its Class A rating, the course was extended from two to three years. The ideal location of the College, adjointing the School of Medicine, has made possible a mutually valuable contact between the students and faculties of both schools. The drug-dispensing room, working in conjunction of the Medical Clinic, compounds annually about ten thousand prescriptions — filled by students under faculty super- vision. The faculty, composed of leading doctors and pharmacists, actively engaged in Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Chemistry, maintains the traditional friendly rela- tionship between student and instructor.

The first small and un- pretentious building, located at Twelfth and Mason streets, was the home of the Sisters and there they cared for the sick. Although space pro- vided for about one hundred patients the Sisters carried on their meritorious duties in those inadequate quarters until the attention of Mrs. Sarah Emily Creighton was attracted to their needs. This beloved woman, who died in 1888, made a bequest of 50,000, thus providing part of the funds requis- ite for the erection of a new building, and an additional sum was advanced by her husband, John A. Creighton. It was in 1890 that the cornerstone of the present building was laid and when completed in 1892 there were accommodations for two hundred patients. The capac- ity was doubled in 1908 and a wing providing complete operating rooms and a clinical amphitheater for teaching purposes was added. The construction of an annex, in 1923, provided thirty additional beds and all modern equipment for the exclusive care and treatment of nervous and mental diseases. Today St. Joseph ' s Hospital is by far the largst hospital in the middle western states. Four hundred beds are available and this number can be increased when neces- sity demands. The institution is ideally situated and overlooks the Missouri river to the eastward where it commands a distance view of the business district to the north and the residential district to the west. m |r 5frT.aMrca rc; T i TW !€ Tgu!, i.

The combined resources of both the Hos- pital and the University were then available and student nurses have since been matriculated by the University. NURSES HOME The course offered is one of three years ' duration and, when completed, a Cer- tificate in Nursing is granted. In addition to the course of training ordinarily given in other schools of nursing, practical instruction in Physical Culture, Anesthesia, Laboratory, Roentgenology and Pharmacy is given, and should the nurse desire to specialize after graduation the experience gained during her formative period will play no small part in the selection of her specialty. The candidate may receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing in addition to her Certificate should she successfully complete two added years of work. The Nurses Home, erected in 1923, is a modern structure comfortably equipped to accommodate one hundred and fifty nurses, and contains parlors, lecture rooms and a spacious gymnasium.

It will enter upon a new era with the cele- bration of its Golden Jubilee by the dedica- tion of the splendid new building now be- ing erected on the campus at Thirty-sixth and Burt streets. In 1881 the first Religious of the Sacred Heart, under the leadership of Mother Dunne, answered the call of Right Reverend Bishop O ' Connor and came from New York to establish the school in Omaha. The work prospered and gained at once a high reputation for excellent scholar- ship and solid character building. Time has not dimmed that reputation. The new college building will carry on the old traditions. Madeleine Sophie Barat, the sainted foundress of the Society of the Sacred Heart, bequeathed to it the principle that, while holding to all that is best in the past, it must keep abreast of the progressive and sound educational movements of the present. The Society must adapt itself to the needs and demands of the various countries and localities in which it is established.

Increasing demands for space necessitated the addition of the first wing, which was completed in 1916, and nine years later construction work on the entire Hospital was finished. The Nurses Home and Gymnasium, however, were not built until the following year, 1926. The School of Nursing at Saint Catherine ' s Hospital became affiliated with the Creighton University when an agreement between the two institutions was reached and effected in January, 1929. With completion of the standard three years of train- ing a Certificate of Nursing is granted. The candidate, however, may receive the Degree of Bachelor of Science from the University after finishing two added years. ST.

On May 1st, 1929, however, affiliation with the Creighton University be- came effective when an agreement was reached whereby the College of Saint Mary was in- corporated into its educational system. Emphasizing the educational standards which have characterized it since its organi- zation in 1923 the College of Saint Mary accepts and retains only those undergrad- uates whose ability and intellectual earnestness are manifest. The College ardent- ly adheres to tested and approved methods of instruction and the contact between teacher and student is enhanced by extra-class room contacts which are both encour- aged and stressed. Student activities are sponsored to provide an outlet for physical, intellectual and artistic talent. A successful year has closed for the College of Saint Mary, a year showing a progressive growth both in enrollment and scholastic achievement — a tribute indeed to the Sisters of Mercy, the first religious order to teach in the State of Nebraska. They came to Omaha in 1864.

All male students enter- ing Creighton are required to enroll as its mem- bers, and on the whole they receive benefits that would be unknown to them as individuals. The organization was established in 1922 to meet the need of student government and has progressed to the extent that it is the controlling power behind most student activities. The body operates as a non-profit sharing corporation under Nebraska law, with the agreement that an annual report must be made to the Secretary of State. It employs a full time manager held under a 5,000 surety bond and a part time adver- tising manager for publications, resting under a bond of 1,000. Among the publications sponsored and supervised by the Union, are the Cregh- tonian, student newspaper; the Blue- Jay, annual year-book; the Shadows, literary magazine; the Student Directory, and the Creighton Handbook. This list embraces all of the publications under the name of Creighton. As a result of the manage- ment by the Union all of these publications have proven successful not only from a literary standpoint but also from a financial angle. An employment bureau by which over two hundred men receive part or full time work is also directed by the group. Approximately four hundred applications are received yearly from attending students who desire to help themselves through school. A systematic carded file system assures each applicant of a position on the Ferrari rombough Mullen Offutt DWYER Cavanaugh HI |cc«. TWSJbicj r.s .T aui c T i ac,T a T«floi.,aui,fibi, IB) [34 1 m [dSmT0 l€il T.SflMlwiMK T0i 7 S l S l0iM SM iM M EDWARD D. MURHPY Manager list, which is taken in numerical order. Likewise, the rooming house service provides students with suitable rooms at reasonable prices. Complete in- spections are made by Union officials every year, and as a consequence the list handed to each student upon demand, is authentic and insures the roomer of a well furnished, desirable home for the school year. The offices of the Union are in close contact with all of the foregoing publications and the ath- letic office, insuring a compactness that makes a complete co-operation between all departments. The Union office also keeps a complete file of the different cuts and mats of University activities cata- logued in order, for the service of the publications, athletic and publicity departments. Also maintained under Union supervision are the club rooms, which embrace reading rooms, musical entertainment over radio and phonograph, cards and billiard tables as well as a general meeting place for members. The club room store provides lunches and candies at a reasonable price that gives the organization little profit. These rooms, open from 11 o ' clock in the morning until 10 o ' clock at night, have proven very beneficial to members during their spare moments. Among other activities of the Union, may be found the five all-University dances given yearly, climaxed by the Junior-Senior Prom in April. These dances are also given without profit in mind. Four plays are presented during the school year by the Creighton Players, and thus provides students with drama of a high character with- out admission charge except the Union card. The Bluejay Follies, funfest of the school year, is also presented by the Union. The Knights of the Bluejay, cheer- ing organization, may be found under the Union name.

In the background of all Union successes are the Union manager, the faculty moderator, and the Union Board of Governors. The board comprises two students from each department of the Univer- sity who are elected every two years by a popular student vote. Chosen for their outstanding per- formances and worth to the school, these men direct all matters of school importance, with the interest cf the student first in their minds. The body meets every first and third Mondays of the month in the office of the Union manager. Besides their duties as supervistors and directors, the group is responsi- ble for the appointment of the editors and adver- tising managers of most of the publications. By virtue of these Governors, the stu- dent body in reality selects their own editors and managers. The Union has never held an attitude of superiority over its members, in fact, if they did it would be direct conflict, as the Union is the students themselves. Salaries totalling over 4,500 are paid yearly by the Union to students, a sum that not only keeps many worth-while and conscientious students in school but puts a premium on the various publications and activities. The Creighton Union is one of the pioneers in the field of student government. Other universities and colleges, such as Marquette and Iowa State College, are also using this idea to forward their student life and give members a greater benefit from their college years. Though it is but eight years old, Creighton has become proud of their Union and are looking forward to even greater accomplishments in the future. REV. J. A. HERBERS, S. J.

GILLESPIE ' president Alumni rjy Vih Creighton University Alumni Associa- tion is an organization for the purpose of promoting good fellowship and co-opera- tion among the almuni, to increase the influence and to assist in the material development of the Uni- versity. Its membership is made up of all alumni cf Creighton, whether graduates or non-graduates, and all faculty members. The first Alumni Association at Creighton was formed in 1914,. and operated successfully for the two succeeding years. It then became inactive, and each depart- ment of the University had its own alumni society. However, on November 16, 1926, Mr. Robert Burkley, president of the Arts alumni, invited delegates from all of the departments to a meeting, out of which came the second and present Pan-Alumni organization. Since that time the Associa- tion has functioned successfully, and has aided materially in many projects for the advancement and betterment of Creighton. Prof. Hugh F. Gillespie, B. A. ' 05, M. A. ' 11, LL. B. ' 15, professor of law and librarian in the Creighton School of Law, is president of the Alumni Council which is now in office. This council, composed of two representatives of each of the de- partments, is the governing board of the Association. Assisting Prof. Gillespie are Dr. Robert Shemel, D. D. S. ' 17, vice president, and Frank E. Pellegrin, B. S. C. ' 31, secretary-treasurer. Dr. W. E. Ash James Shanahan E. S. Murphy Dr. W. L.

The official organ of the Association is The Creighton Alumnus, a monthly magazine edited by the secretary. All members of the Association who have paid their annual almuni dues receive copies of the magazine. Some of the functions of the permanent alumni office, located in Omaha, are to maintain an accurate and up-to-date file of all living alumni, together with such information as may later prove valuable; to keep in direct touch with the alumni from time to time; to arrange for the annual Homecoming; to promote and care for scholar- ship and other drives, and generally to carry out the purpose of the Association. The alumni secretary is assisted by a part-time secretary and with additional stenographic and office assistance whenever necessary. In addition to the general Alumni Association, many alumni clubs have been started in various parts of the country, wherever a group of Creighton graduates have banded together. It is the purpose of these groups to keep alive the Creighton spirit after graduation, and to promote good fellowship and to provide mutual aid for those who claim Creighton as their Alma Mater.

The largest and most active group is the Los Angeles Association of Creighton Alumni, whose president is Gordon X. Richmond. The outstanding alumni activity of the past year was the annual Homecoming, at which several thousand former Creighton students were present. Coming from states as far distant as California, these alumni returned to the scene of their college days to renew old ties and form new friendships. The work of arranging the day ' s program was ef- fectively carried out by the Alumni Council, under the general direction of last year ' s president, Dr. Louis Bushman. Features of the day were the election of alumni officers and Coun- cil representatives for the present year; a barbecue -dinner -dance for alumni and their families and friends; class and fraternity reunions, and the Homecoming foot ball game between Creighton and the Haskell Indians. The Homecoming was re- garded as one of the largest and most active in Creighton history, and as that day is the only one on which the general members of the Association meet, it is regarded as evidence that the Creighton Alumni Association will continue to advance and prosper during the coming year, as it has in the past.

After many ex- periences and adventures he opened a general store in one of the mining districts of Nevada.

He knew the country and its conditions and he and his brother had experience in construction work, therefore he was well equipped to build the line which linked togeth- er the east and the far west. Before building the line Edward Creighton, alone, made a survey and mapped out the course of the line. A few years later the first transcontinental railroad followed this course. 1 Bt ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼▼▼▼▼ ' TT B -f CHESTER A.

Several incidents during this unusual season made history for the Bluejay gridiron. One of the first was the introduction of night football, played ' neath powerful electric lights. This was added stimuli for the spectators who, before, had never been able to before leave their work in the afternoons to watch the Hilltoppers in action. An- other was the heroic defeat of the powerful, ancient rival, Marquette, for the third successive time. One less notable was the record scoring of North Dakota State over a helpless Bluejay outfit, 54 to 0.

Johnny Scott ' s dart- ing slashes through the tackles and around the ends kept that crowd in an uproar. The game was more or less of a walk-away after Johnny Scott ' s 32-yard run for a touchdown shortly after the starting whistle. The Kansas boys were sent home on the short end of an 18 to count. The following week Chet Wynne entrained for Norman, Oklahoma, with twenty-two eager grid- ders. But there, in that southern clime, the Blue- jays were considerably mauled and cuffed into a 26 to defeat. Rombough kept the Jay spirit rumbling, by crashing through the greatest line of Sooner history, by spilling such speedy backs as Crider, Mayhew and Mills for losses. LUCAS, Guard J.

It was an atonement for the 35 to blasting that the Creightonians had given them in Omaha in 1928. The Bluejays made it tough enough for the Southerners, keeping them to a bitter and hard- fought tie at the end of the first half, 13 to 13. But the boys withered under the strain in the second half, largely through lack of reserves, and were trampled on during the last thirty minutes.

It was pronounced by 14,000 fans to be the season ' s thriller. A little Buck ploughed up the new sod in the stadium on the opening kickoff, and amid the sharp cries of his follow warriors, sprinted and dodged for 105 yards to a touchdown! The Blue- jays never gave up the fight and before the half ended, had evened the count, 13 to 13. The entire game was one wild dash after another, the honors being divided between Buster Charles, fleet In- dian back, Willie Worthing, Charles Weller and Johnny Scott. It was the Charles lad who broke loose in the last few minutes for a 45-yard run that finished the evening for the Bluejays.

A special train on the noon of November 2nd carried hundreds of Bluejay rooters to the Drake stadium in Des Moines, where the boys were again beaten, 34 to 12. But the Bulldogs of Drake knew that they had been in a football game of a most severe nature. The Blue jays made 16 first downs, while the men of Iowa piled up 17; the Jays made 182 yards in scrimmage, and the lowans garnered 277. It was the same story this night as it had been two weeks previous at Stillwater — insufficient re- serve material, and a long list of the boys on the casualty roll. Rombough was disabled at the half, and Scott left the field in the fourth period with a limp right arm.

While Johnny Scott was able, he kept the Drake rooters in a restless turmoil with his brilliant runs through and around the Drake line. At this stage of the season the Bluejay fans were quite discouraged. On the 7th of November, Chet Wynne loaded twenty-three of his gridders on an eastbound train for Milwaukee. The boys were silent, grim and desperate looking. Sports writers over the country were still commenting upon the magnificent manner in which the Golden Avalanche of Marquette had battled the powerful Detroit University to a 6 to 6 tie the week before. Advance dope on the Bluejays by the football authorities gave them nothing in the way of even a scoring chance with the mighty men of the Avalanche. But, lo and behold!

Sisk, Corbett, Brousseau and other Marquette threats, made little impression on the infuriated Jays. The more remarkable was their vic- tory of 13 to 6 without Johnny Scott in the backfield, with Flip Rombough crashing the line repeatedly with one injured knee; Jack Furay taking a terrific beating about the head from the constant stream of fresh linemen sent in to oppose him; Bill Le- Feber, despite several ailments, never leaving the game for one minute; Larry Lucas being responsible for one of the touchdowns by breaking through and blocking a kick. Hunt, McConville, Burger, Tesar, Rettenmaier and Somers added their gigantic bits in the one glorious spot on Creightcn ' s schedule. It was their third successive victory over Marquette in as many seasons, with the last two games being played in Milwaukee. Over 18,000 fans sat in that electically- lighted stadium and watched the Jays make seven first downs, to Marquette ' s eight; 118 yards in scrimmage to the Ava- lanche ' s 113. But the next Saturday night showed the results of the Jays ' terrific fight against their ancient enemy. Coach Jack West brought down from North Dakota his powerful Flicker- tail contingent. It was too much for the Bluejays, who had apparently spent their strength the Saturday night previous, and succumbed on a sloppy field before just an average crowd of shivering fans, 54 to 0. Johnny Scott was on the sidelines with injuries received in the Drake game, and Larry Lucas was removed shortly after the opening whistle. Before the half ended, Worthing, Rombough and LeFeber were removed to the sidelines and North Dakota ran rampant. Thanksgiving day found Chet Wynne ' s men in better PT luPR p A Mr shape than they had been in the previous three weeks, though Assistant Coach some were Still limping.

But it wasn ' t in the cards for the Bluejays to upset the dope and the gruelling battle turned slowly into a victory for the lowans late in the second half, 12 to 0. Don Somers ' educated toe, which had proved such a factor in the successful 1927 season, made its final bid for fame with several long boots deep into Grinnell territory. Seven Bluejays were given their farewell calls from the stands that afternoon. Johnny Scott, Floyd Rombough, Larry Lucas, Don Somers, Merle Hunt, Charles Butterwick and Russell Sweeney made their final bows. Concurrently at the time the Blue-Jay went to press, the University was sur- prised and astonished to learn of the resignation of Chet Wynne as head coach of football and track. A few days later another surprise, which was most agreeable to all, came with the announcement of Arthur R. Stark and Lon R. Graf as the new Blue jay football and track coaches for the seasons of 1930-31. The former signed as head football coach and the latter will be the new assistant in football and the head coach for the track team. The same announcement stated that the freshman gridiron squad will be in charge of Elmer P. Lang, who was Wynne ' s chief assistant during the past season. Wynne departed from the Hilltop fold to take charge of a larger team in the South. The football men, students of the University, alumni and followers of the Bluejays regret to see Wynne leave after a splendid record of eight years at Creigh- ton, but are pleased to learn that he is bettering his position in the football world. Prior to the announcement of his resignation Coach Wynne conducted one of the most satisfactory and successful spring football sessions ever staged by the Blue- jays. This fact, coupled with the new personnel, indicates a good season for 1930. The Blue-Jay takes this opportunity to welcome the new coaches and to wish Chet Wynne good luck in his new venture.

Hatless Sammy had been named the season before by Lawrence Perry as one of the 1928 season ' s outstanding guards, and by Knute Rockne for All- American honorable mention. Fifty frosh were issued their leathers and cleats when the first call went out for candidates. A record was set with the number of famed high school stars found on the new roster. Some of the more huge lads were, Clarence Hartman, 220-pound tackle; Francis Cooney, 215 pounds, an all-Pacific Coast selection for two seasons; Lou Weiner, an all-Nebraska high star for two seasons; Carl Smith, also an all-Nebraska selection for left end, and some forty others with con- siderable notoriety for smashing opposing linesmen, or running wild over broken and unbroken gridirons. The yearlings, for their conscientousness in taking daily drubbings from the Varsity, were rewarded for their pains with a trip to Manhattan, Kansas, to do battle with the Kansas Aggies frosh, on November 16. Both squads were at a disadvanage owing to the soggy and extremely muddy field. For three quarters the Jay frost held their own, man- aging to keep the Kaggies from crossing their goal line. But a series of passes late in the last period sent the first Kansas man across the line. An intercepted Bluejay pass brought about the second touchdown, and the final score read: Kansas Aggies 12, Creighton 0. Richard Sklenar, who was elected captain of the frosh squad at the end of the season, did outstanding work in the Kansas game, as did Jelen, Hickey, Cashman and Smith. This ended the frosh season.

Schabinger supervising, and apparently pleased at the appearance which his athletes made as they leaped and cavorted gingerly about the gym. Coach Schabie was not only pleased with their appearance but also with their seeming eagle eyes for the hoop and their accuracy and swiftness of passing and floor work, at this early stage of the sea- son. There was little reason to be surprised at this, as Captain Louis Trautman, Brud Jensen, Bart Cor- coran, Fred Melchiors, Maurice Van Ackeren, and several of the lesser lights, Parker, Davis, James Logan and Jim Sheridan, had been training on the court since early Sep- tember. Immediately follow- ing the football season, Wee Willie Worthing was given an honorable discharge by Coach I j - Chet Wynne from his V quarterback po- F sition to become Coach M Schabie ' s threat- H ening understudy for ' ' ■ Captain Louis Traut- man. As the team lined up for their premier showing, Friday, December 20, against a rejuvenated group of Farmers from the Stillwater, Oklahoma, Agricultural college, Corcoran and Melchiors were at guards, Jensen at center, Van Ackeren and Trautman were in the for- ward positions. The tension of having the curtain raised and the ballyhoo of a strong Aggie team made the Jays uncertain at the start. They finally swung into action, and with the insertion of Worthing, they spurted to a quick victory, 30 to 14. The next evening, with a cheerfu l town and audience to watch them, the Bluejays disported themselves in rare style, completely stifling the Southerners under a barrage of some of the plainest and fanciest basket shooting seen in these parts since the days of the famous ' ' Chuck H |rc« TWSJbTws r.iafar« T s T , T«a Tws i.iawa! rii8] 11 |rcg T«abT«i r abT gbT«c T iy i g i«fi Iny j goT«cfaT«flb! m Kearney. The massacre ended with the Bluejays having piled up the biggest score of the season, 55 to 26. As had been early predicted, Maurice Van Ackeren would be the toast of the town and his fellow collegiates, even though only a sophomore. A four-day layoff was permitted the boys to allow them to get into their share of plum pudding and other Christ- mas edibles. They were immediately summoned back to duty to prepare for what some thought the season ' s most strenuous series of conflicts, that with Syracuse Uni- versity. It was quite apparent as practice hours went on that much of Creighton ' s success for this season would depend on Bounding Bart Corcoran and Van Ackeren. Louis Trautman was finding it extremely dif- ficult to keep up the pace with such speedy youngsters as Willie Worthing and Van and even the ponderous Jensen appeared to be slowing up. On January 3, Syracuse made its appearance, and Creighton and Omaha left the gym that night quite agreed that they had never sat in on quite such thrilling basketball be- fore. The Bluejays eked out a victory, 31 to 27, and managed to learn MELCHIORS, Guard and Captain-Elect CORCORAN, Guard JENSEN, Center some new tricks on clever floor work and de- ceptive passes. The next night, with the crowd seated in every seat and en every available promontory jutting out from the walls, including windows and rafters, the Syracusans reversed the finale and squeezed out a 27 to 25 decision. On the 7th of January the boys packed up for a tour that was to take them as far as Lexington, Kentucky. On their way east they dropped off in St. Louis to entangle with the Washington Bears for the prize rung of the Missouri Valley Conference ladder. They were soundly drubbed for their pains, 45 to 33. Van Ackeren managed to run a terrific 11 [lt«i i.tf i«i;sitfi abT s 7«ci TniGT.a [H [119] ll __ M [dU l iS y T S: l iMKM0i T, TK TW  l,S l,iU number of points, leaving him in the lead for high scorers in the Conference. Meyers, lanky Bear, proved to be the Bluejay ' s Nemesis, and at that time was only a few points short of tying Maurice ' s scoring record. The next night the Bluejays were introduced to a sHghtly different style of basketball as played by the Blue Grass mountaineers of Lexington. Judging from the raves that the sports scriveners of Kentucky handed out, our boys must have been quite a surprise to them, too. Willie Worthing shocked the good citizens and incidentally the players of Kentucky also by drawing a deadly bead on the hoop. Saturday night it seemed doubtful whether or not the gym wouldn ' t burst with the overflow crowd that attempted to squeeze in to have a peek at these heah Catholics who shoot baskets at any time from any angle. An estimated crowd of 9,500 were almost dis- appointed with the showing their lads made for three quar- ters, when the Bluejays had the game in the bag. The latter fool- ishly started to stall, and the men of Ken- tucky made good sever- al breaks that always fall to the lot of the team that is being stall- ed and won, 25 to 21. DAVIS, Guard LOGAN, Guard SHERIDAN, Center NV. Another trip the succeeding week found the boys being entertained with an easy victory over Drake at Des Moines. Van Ackeren and Jensen were largely responsible for the top-heavy 40 to 27 score. Van made 12 points and Jensen did the same. Worthing was not to be outdone by the performance of his mates and straightway thrilled the Iowa audience with two powerfully long shots. Ever a good night for a basketball game is Satur- day night, and especially in Milwaukee, when the Blue- jays come to town. The crowds were willingly delayed that night for two extra periods. It has never been ex- plained why the Bluejays were kept down to such a small score, but it was nevertheless authentically re- ported that the final tabulation read 19 to 17 in their [120] HI |rcifl T gbiwssr.iabT auT«c T. sfaT.a T abiwsbi«)y ii| i«g m L. WARIN, Forward favor. Corcoran, of course, had to be the one to finally decide the affair with four points in the last few minutes of the engagement. Freddy Melchiors was making his presence felt more keenly as the season progressed, and especially in the Marquette fracas when he slipped in five points that were much appreciated in the low point game that it was. During the next week Coach Schabie lessened his workouts on the boys, as they were to spend the next three games of the schedule on the home court. On January 22, Grinnell was showered under with some fine basket shooting on the part of Willie Worthing, Van Ackeren and Jensen. The score, Creighton 45, Grinnell 17. There were times during the mid-season when the latter showed some of his 1928-29 season form. Three nights later the Bluejays were hosts to Iowa State and, to put it frankly, a goodly crowd was there, with one upper section filled with Iowa fans. The Jays were in constant danger in the second half after what seemed a very safe start with a ten point lead. The local critics accused the boys of losing their vitality and acting indifferent. At any rate, they finally pulled out of danger with a 40 to 34 victory. Jensen seemed the most consistent, tossing six goals, while Worthing gave a steady performance from the foul line, dropping four free throws in a row. Van Ackeren, playing with a bruised hand, nevertheless contributed some fine floor work and two important baskets when they were needed. 1 One of the most anticipated games of the season was the Missouri-Bluejay fray. And Creighton fans have yet to see the Bluejays trim the Missourians. The great Missouri combine of Craig and Collins, both guards, proved too much for the Jays, who lost out in another of those last second thrillers, 32 to 30. This game marked the introduction of the new style of play, starting the ball from the end zone instead of carrying it to center for the jump. In the first ten minutes of play, the Bluejays seemed about as torrid a group of lads that was ever assembled on one court. Van Ackeren, Worthing and Corcoran sank some of the longest shots yet seen on the Hill- E. WARIN, Guard °P court.

Then Corcoran turned his ankle and he was re- lieved by Davis. The half ended, Missouri 17, Creighton 16. Missouri kept the lead the entire next half with the exception of the last few minutes when Freddy Melchiors tied the count at 30 all. An attempted Schabinger strategy to have a quick substitution to give the boys respite, never materialized owing to the terrific din caused by the fans and in turn causing the referee to miss hearing the whistle at the scoring table. In the remaining seconds. Captain Craig of the Bengals sank the heartrending goal and the game ended there. Another three game trip was in store for the Bluejays, beginning February 7, at Grinnell. The Grinnell trip was almost disastrous owing to the hampering influence of a low ceiling and the cracker-box size of the gymnasium. Van Ackeren led the offensive and was in a sense the winner for the Jays when the final gun sounded and the latter were leading, 21 to 20. Parker Davis made an impressive debut in the middle of the game by sinking two much needed field goals. The next night the Bluejays were in Iowa City to avenge a one- point beating that they had acquired the season before from the Tall Corn boys. This was a real dope upsetter as the lowans promptly set the boys down, holding Van Ackeren scoreless, but letting Big Boy Jensen garner eight goals for himself, the final count reading Iowa 33, Creighton 28. Columbia, Missouri, saw the Bluejays dismount from the train on the morning of February 11, trimmed them roughly, 29 to 21 that evening, and sent them on home to prepare for the big conference tilt with the Washington Bears. St. Valentine ' s night found the gym again loaded with fans, most of them doubt- ing the Bluejays ' ability to stop the Bears in their conference fight. The Bears con- centrated on watching Van Ackeren, and Willie Worthing fooled them by sinking five goals and two free throws, followed by Jensen with four goals, and Corcoran with [122] M i:c)! i g i«fif i fi i tf itfc i )S T.abT,flOTwsMTw m THE VARSITY SQUAD three. Even the carefully guarded Van scored two. It was an assault that resulted in Creighton 40, Washington 23. The title seemed all but won. Marquette, with its highly touted quintet, arrived on the 17th of February, and were beaten out in the last thirty seconds of play by a carefully poised shot by Van Ackeren. Van was invincible all evening and Corcoran kept things hot on his end of the court. The final count, Creighton 28, Marquette 26. At this stage of the season Creighton was leading the Missouri Valley Confer- ence with six games won and one in the lost column. Washington was in second place with four won and two lost and with a doubleheader scheduled with the weak Okla- homa Aggies who hadn ' t won a Conference game as yet. Creighton had one game left on their Conference schedule, and that with Drake, who had succumbed to the Bluejays earlier in the season on their own floor by the heavy count of 40 to 27. Every- thing looked favorable for the first Conference title. It looked like another repetition of the first Drake game the way the Jays started on the Bulldogs, the night of February 25, in the home gym.

That strange let-down that had come over the boys in several of the season ' s earlier games seemed to take hold again on this night. Barnes and Bowes of Drake collaborated to bring the Bulldogs ' total up to 16. At the half the count stood 20 to 16 and Creighton not looking any too good. From there to the end of the game, the lead shifted and see-sawed. With two minutes to go Drake led 31 to 27. Then Corcoran converted King ' s personal and Jensen slipped in a short field goal. With one minute to go, Bart sent a happy chill through the crowd with a long looping counter from the center of the floor. An attempted stalling game played havoc with the Bluejays, the ball went to Monahan, Drake guard, and as the Creightonian graphically described it, Last second shot crushes Jay hopes. Score: Drake 33, Creighton 32. The next week Washington trimmed the Oklamoha Aggies in a doubleheader, leaving the Bluejays sharing the top honors with the Bears, The Kansas Jayhawks, six times winners of the old Missouri Valley Conference and champs of the Big Six, were the next and final foes of the Bluejays for February 28. Sports writers of the Big Six loop were a bit uneasy over their pets having to meet the powerful , s ,:- Bluejays. The Blues defeated the highly touted upper Conference 1 r .. boys, 44 to 20. Maurice Van Ackeren sent the boys off to a good S • . start with 13 markers before any of the other nine men on the floor ' 4 ' were able to find the hoop. Bart Corcoran, making his farewell ap- pearance on the Creighton court, played his usual magnificent game and was given a tremendous ovation when h e left the floor. . w ■ The Conference standing of the Missouri Valley stood as follows: ' W.

While the schedule is not as heavy as that of last season, yet Creigh- ton has hopes of attaining some good results in the final meets. In the early indoor meets, the team was handicapped by lack of material to construct a win- ning team. However, everything con- sidered, they did well. The opening meet was held at Kansas City on February 8. Turner and Co- CO-CAPTAIN BINDER Distances McGARGILL Hurdles, Sprints CRAWFORD Sprints captains Barron and Binder were the only Bluejays com- peting, and they in special events only. Turner was en- tered in the 440-yard dash, Barron in the 50-yard dash, and Binder in the mile run. While they failed to share any of the first honors, yet they finished well up in the final rank- ing. In the Missouri Valley Indoor Meet, held on March 1, at Des Moines, Creighton was represented by Barron, Bin- der, Turner, Gaughen, Allison, and Paben. In this meet Barron finished a close third in the 50-yard dash, and was m idet r0SMK : S9 l M ' iM ' iM ' : ' f l ' iS l ' i M [126] m f igaagfi T abT afaT«juT«iSfaTW5UT. abi..aMI y H barely nosed out in the 50-yard low hurdles for first place. The judges, after considerable consultation, gave him third place. Binder was able to squeeze out a fourth place in the mile run, and Turner and Gaughen gave a good account of themselves in the 440, but failed to place. The mile relay, composed of Barron, Allison, Binder and Turner, ran an exciting race, being nosed out of first place by Grinnell. At the time of publication the squad still has the Drake relays and the Missouri Valley outside meet to look forward to, the latter to be held at the Creighton field. The team expects to make a good showing in the Conference meet. Barron, at the present writing, is considered a favorite in the 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, and low hurdles. In preparation for the Missouri Valley Conference champion- ship track and field meet scheduled to occur late in May in the ' -1 - McGUIRE 440 CO-CAPTAIN BARRON Sprints, Hurdles DUGAN Pole Vault Bluejay stadium, the athletic department of the local school went to considerable expense in rebuilding the track. The old track was torn up completely and the old cinders and dirt hauled away and were replaced by three grades of new material, first with a heavy grade on the track bed, an intermediate quality in between, and then the softest and finest grade cinder on the top. The completion of this new running oval has given to Creighton and the Bluejays undoubtedly one of the very best tracks in the country. The fact that a championship meet will be the first encounter staged on the new track should be the means Lca !wsfaiwstor a !

However, the construction of the new track had a drawback inasmuch as it hampered considerably the practice of the trackmen. They were forced to run on the grass turf of the football gridiron. The resignation of Coach Chet Wynne in mid-season proved to be another handicap. He was with the team dur- ing thei ndoor season, but in the spring devoted some of his time to the spring football practice before leaving for the school which he is to coach next season. In the past few years he has developed a number of good trackmen, and TURNER 440 BLUECHEL Broad Jump ALLISON Sprints two of these stars, Co-captains Barron and Binder, have been conducting the squad during his absence.

Kubat, one of the best prospects to ever matriu- late at Creighton, and Ben Foley, both distance stars, have exhibited talent that promises to be of value for the future Jay track teams.

In spite of the fact that there was an absence of formidable material with which to consctruct a winning team, yet great credit is due Coach Peter G. Wendell and the assistance given by Captain S. Kirkpatrick, for the astounding results obtained while working under such a handicap. Upon the initial call for candidates for the team, the coach was confronted with a group of fifteen earnest would-be tankers, the majority of which had had absolutely no experience in this sport. However, they worked hard and diligently for several months, and in the initial meet staged at Des Moines against Drake University, the de- . , . fending Missouri Valley champs, the Bluejay splashers were able to garner 21 points, against 54 for the veterans. Well pleased with their re- sults, they continued to work hard, and against Grinnell, in the local tank, they put up a strong bid for honors, and were able to acquire 28 points to 47 for the opponents. While the score would show very little im- provement, the records made (Continued on Page 246) SEVERNIUS KIRKPATRICK Captain PETER WENDELL Coach m irc«t T gbiwt r.auT sbT c T iSGT afaT aGiw  i y iog m [132] e I C OCSDGSDCSOC OCSOCXOCSOCSDCSDCSDC O( ;OCSDCSOCSO Intra-mural Basketball tj HE basketball championship of the University is decided each year by an intra-mural tournament which continues throughout the winter months, climaxed by a championship game sometime in the spring. The tournament this year was unusually successful from the point of the number and quality of the teams entered and the enthusiasm shown by the various teams in the play. Practi- cally every class in every department of the University was represented by a team. Classes were divided into two leagues, the White and the Blue. Under the direc- tion of Elmer Lang, assistant football coach and director of intra-mural athletics, each league played a series of games to decide the winner of the league. The win- ners of each league, based on a percentage basis, met in a post-season game to decide the championship of the University. The Senior Pharmacy quintet won the title in the White division and the Junior Commerce players were victorious in the Blue division. In a close game that rivaled the best varsity competition, the Pill Rollers from the Pharmacy school, cinched the University title by taking the Commerce team to the tune of 29 to 20. The intra-mural play is always watched closely by Head Basketball Coach A. A. Schabinger, for any material that might have varsity prospects. This year ' s play de- veloped some outstanding players who gave promise of varsity utility next year. An all-intra-mural team selected by the Creighonian included: Forwards, Blumette, Junior Commerce; McDermott, Sophomore, Arts; Strawhecker, Senior Commerce. Centers, Paben, Junior Pharmacy; Somers, Senior Commerce. Guards, Butterwick, Senior Pharmacy; Scott, Senior Commerce; Rettenmaier, Senior Pharmacy.

Stalmaster also collaborated with Maurice Blacker to win the doubles crown. The victory of Stalmaster came as a distinct surprise. Sam Epstein, a commerce junior, was heavily favored to annex the title, in the pre-tourney speculation.

Sturek, Loyal Martin, Herbert luechel, Ray Palmer, John Hagerty, John Bluemette, Harold Crawford, Hal Roddy, Ed Campion, William Kelly and Fred Melchiors. Manasil, the 1929 champion, is a favorite to retain his title, although he will find considerable comptition from such stars as Fred Mlchiors, Hal Roddy, Robert Collins and Ray Palmer. The latter is a former champion, winning the title two successive years. Ed Campion, a Medic from Ross, Cal., has turned in some low scores during the early season play.

To achieve these aims, to promote health consciousness and deve lop health hab- its, to further ideals of sportsmanship and school spirit, the Athletic Asso- ciation was organized in October, 1928. It is similar to the Associations established in the representative girls ' colleges throughout the United States. The Association, becoming really active in 1929-30, includes practically the whole student body. Its activities are of a nature calculated not only to promote health and the play spirit, but also to develop leadership and initiative in students. For this reason it deals not alone with athletics, but Duchesne College r ¥{E Physical Education De- y partment of Duchesne Col- lege strives to achieve the aims and ideals in women ' s athletics as expressed in the statements and policy of the American Physical Edu- cation Association.

In harmony with the work done in the Physical Education department, the Athletic Association has sponsor- ed numerous tournaments through- out the year, granting suitable awards to winning groups. Tennis opened the athletic schedule at the beginning of the year 1920-30, to be followed in immediate succession by archery, volleyball, basketball, Nebraska ball, golf, and baseball, each in season. For these group games the Duchesne Association has adopted the national slogan: A game for every girl, and every girl in a game. It stresses participation rather than outstanding skill, mass activity rather than spec- tacular individual achievement.

Those who are not skilled in highly organized games have found less strenuous games that they can play with pleas- ure and profit. Yet the technique of the highly organized game has not been neglected in the training process, nor do excellent players fail to ap- pear, facts that were self-evident in the various tournaments. The Association strives chiefly to stimplate interest in healthful activi- ties that can be carried on after the students leave school. These are the individual sports — tennis, golf, arch- ery, swimming, skating, skiing, horse- back riding, and walking — that can be indulged in even late in life.

It aims to foster a spirit of true sportsmanship among the students participating in athletics. Tennis, volleyball, skating, and hik- ing have been the most popular sports among the members. The point system of merit was employed in the determination of awards. BASKETBALL During the 1930 season a series of basketball games in the nature of a tourna- ment were played with the Co-Ath Club as the sponsor. Competition for the most part was restricted between the two classes, and later the winning team competed against the St. Mary ' s High School.

The best game of the season was played against the Omaha University, the latter winning by 14-11. The poorest form was displayed when the Training School was defeated by Omaha Letter Shop, 28-8. Four of the regulars were lost by graduation.

O. T. C. Band rose from an unstable organiza- tion to the best equipped and most active band ever produced at the University. The band was in evidence at all of the football games of the season, where they not only furnished the music but staged stunts and formations during the intermission. One of the out- standing achievements for the year was the trip to Drake for the Creighton-Drake football contest with the entire personnel of the band accompanying the team. The Creighton spirit and the school was advertised extensively not only at the Drake stadium but throughout the business district of Des Moines, as the parade of the band followed by the Creighton rooters attracted a great deal of attention. Much of the credit for the band ' s success is due to the efforts of Sargeant Slez- inger, who spent unlimited time on the development of the organization. Sergeant Slezinger is a retired U. S. Army band director. Members of the band were distinguished from other cadets by the white and blue braid hanging from the left shoulder. m [r c fl T «5Sfa I W  T iauT uT,Cjl ! . c T auT Jl I.lS TW OT«c I«c M [ 146 ] m [%Kiiir Sf l SMKM iMKM0SM.S Z l SM M JOHN A.

One international jflK Bjk and two intersectional debates headed the schedule. k H These were home debates. Two teams carried the I HJIJjjJI ■IIII H fame of Creighton debating far afield, one south to St. Louis and the other to the east as far as Detroit. Of twenty debates scheduled, eleven resulted in victories, three in defeats, and six were no decision encounters. Last year the squad was undefeated in eleven debates. This year the same number of victories were chalked up, though nine more contests were scheduled. This year eight different questions were discussed as compared with the three or four of previous seasons. The success of the season is attributable to the work of Faculty Moderator C. M. Ryan, S. J., Captain Ephraim L. Marks, Manager John L Dugan and Assistant Mana- gers Leo Smith, Bernard Martin and Sheridan Byrne. It was an extremely ambitious season and too much credit cannot be given to all of the squad and particularly to the officers for the splendid work. The squad was composed of twelve letter men, and eight candidates, of whom three received keys, Krell, Steinbaugh and Blaes. Gradua- tion this year claimed former Captain Louis Lipp, Gerald Vasak and Lawrence Krell. The Freshman debate squad this year contained some fine varsity prospects. James Fitzgerald, Law ' 32, of the varsity squad, served as coach for the season and sent his charges against the high school teams of the city in a number of debates.

Competition between the staffs of the various annuals becomes keener each year. Ideas must be new, varied and different. This necessitates an editorial plan without a previous pattern and yet which must be kept within the limit of the financial budget. In attaining this plan according to the budget the staff selected the very best printing, engraving, art work, and photography. Therefore, the 1930 Blue-Jay is released to the University as a whole that it may be accepted on a par with previous editions and at the same time compare favorably with the publications of other institutions. Production of this Blue-Jay began during the summer of 1929. The skeleton of the book was prepared by the time school opened in the fall. Photographic work be- gan immediately for the individual portrait sections and as time progressed and the various activities took form these likewise were recorded through the picture medium.

PELLEGRIN Sditor HE Creightonian, student newspaper, pub- lished weekly under the supervision of the Students Union, not only gives the student journalist actual practice, but helps to weld the dif- ferent colleges of the University into closer rela- tions. With four paid editors and an advertising director, the publication kept a perfect record, ap- pearing on schedule each week. The paper is pub- lished on Thursday morning, with dispatches being sent to all of the different colleges and affiliated institutions. A staff organization with representatives in each department insures the reader of a full coverage of campus news. Besides the regular staff of journalism students, members are found in the two hospitals, Duchesne, and the College of Saint Mary. Although the school has no privately owned production plant, practical printing and make-up experience is obtained through co-operation of a local printing estab- lishment.

It is published six times during the year. Its con- tents, with few exceptions, is entirely the work of students. Shadows for 1929-30 was marked for its un- usual covers, and for the fact that illustrations made by students were extensively used. The Christmas issue, the March issue, which had a St. Patrick ' s day theme, and the May issue, were outstanding. The finances of the magazine are controlled by the Students Union and its offices in the Union building. The editorial staff is appointed by the faculty moderator. The magazine is represented by selected students in each of the schools and colleges. During the year activities of the various colleges were described in articles in the magazine. Shadows this year won high praise for the excellence of its short-stories and its verse. Of these, some were of a caliber to be printed in professional magazines. The magazine sponsored a poetry and short-story contest following a custom laid down several years ago. Cash prizes totaling sixty dollars were awarded. Miss Agnes Replier, a noted writer, acted as judge of the verse, and Mr. Harvey Newbranch, editor of the Omaha World-Herald, as judge of the short-stories. The stories were Finnegan, McEveny, W.

In September, 1928, it became the Du- chesne Monthly. It features, in addition to col- lege news, short stories, essays, book reviews, an alumnae section, and poetry. The aim of the staff and student body in editing this publication is to reveal in its pages the principles for which the Religious of the Sacred Heart have always stood, and to stimulate interest among alumnae and students. Five hundred copies are printed each month, and they reach, besides students and alumnae, all the English- speaking houses of the Society throughout the world, including those in England, Australia, Scotland, Ireland, New Zealand, Japan, and China.

The circula- tion of the magazine has greatly increased since its inception in 1926 when but 500 copies were printed. From this small beginning it has grown to a circula- tion of 2,000 during the past year. The students of the English department of the school are the main contributors to the magazine. From this department come most of the poetry, short stories, essays, and book reviews to be found in its contents. In addition, the Golden Record con- tains current news of each month. The April issue, in the form of a special number, featured the pageant, The Return of the Play Spirit to America. The elaborate art work of this number was one of the outstanding features. The drawings and plates were reproduced from prize winning drawings of students of the college and other schools of the Sisters of Mercy. 1 1 ' IM m rm,m : B s ;1 fei ■ - jB MP ' ' IkS P - - . .

PELLEGRIN Editor ' HE Creighton Alumnus, official publica- tion of the Creighton University Alumni Association, is issued once each month during the school year by the central office of the Association, located in Omaha, and edited by Frank E. Pellegrin, secretary-treasurer of the Alumni Council. The purpose of the magazine is to bind the thou- sands of Creighton alumni more closely together by presenting currently the outstanding events in alumni and campus activity, and to keep each alumnus conversant with significant trends in Creighton progress. The Creighton Alumnus is mailed to each member of the Alumni Association in good standing, and to other colleges and universities throughout the country. Thus it aids in bearing the name and ideals of Creighton not only into the homes of graduates and former students, but also into the offices of other institutions of higher learning, wherever it may be of assistance or inspiration. The magazine was given honorable mention in the Annual Report of the Six- teenth Confernce of the American Alumni Council, which commented specifically on a set of editorials with a refreshing crispness of style published in the Creighton Alumnus. An outstanding feature of the magazine during the past six months has been a monthly article by one of the members of the Alumni Council on some problem of particular interest to Alumni. H | rcag.aM«gb T,auT SGT« T«i y T T aMi.iS i M [164] y ilitary Hi id GEORGE R. HICKS S 4ajor Infantry ' ■Professor Military Science and Tactics ROTC T - HE Reserve Officers Training Corps is a y part of the Organized Reserves of the V I y United States Army, created by the Na- j||NL ,  r . ,_j|f tional Defense Act of 1916. Its purpose is to train students during the times of peace so that in times of national conflict they will be able to train and lead men in national defense. As the R. O. T. C. was not able to supply enough men during the World War, it was supplanted by the Students Army Training Corps, with all the colleges and universities in the country as mem- bers. Creighton was one of the many universities with such a unit, where many students were trained, then sent away as officers either overseas or to the various camps in the country to train recruits. After the war this organization was abandoned and in its place the R. O. T. C. was again established. The Corps at Creighton was started in January, 1919, under the direction of Major Corbet Hoffman, detailed by the gov- ernment to serve as professor of military science and tactics. At this time the enroll- ment was 136 members of the basic corps and one member in the advanced corps. Major Hoffman was assisted by one other officer and by two sergeants. In 1921 the first member of the advanced corps received his commission as a second lieutenant in the Organized Reserves of the United States Army. In 1923 Major Hoffman was relieved by Major Francis B. Brannon. Imme- diately Major Brannon put in a system of competition between the different units PASSING CITY HALL ON PARADE [166] m fk tfWS I«fl I«)R I ff I« S T )afaT«g TWSbIWSbTKS r« FRANK E. BROKAW Captain Infantry of the battalion. In 1923 and 1924 he furthered this spirit of competition by offering a target rifle to the student scoring the highest in rifle marks- manship, and a sabre to the member of the gradu- ating class that stood the highest in the class. He presented a guidon of the University colors, each month, to the company that stood highest in gen- eral efiiciency. Major George R. Hicks was sent to relieve Major Brannon in 1926, and since that time he has in- creased the spirit of competition to the highest pitch. He started field meets for the unit, then later, to insure more competition, he had the senior unit of the University compete against the junior unit of the High School. Awards were given to the winners of the individual contests and the winners of the platoon and company events. With the erection of the stadium the rifle range was moved from the squash courts in the gymnasium to a place under the stadium. Rifle teams were formed and awards were given to the winners. During the summer camps for the R. O. T. C. at Fort Crook the Creighton members have carried off many of the major awards. In 1927 a Creighton man won the highest honor of the camp, that of the most proficient and the best cadet in the camp. In 1928 Creighton sent two of the three members of the rifle team from the camp to the national rifle meet at Camp Perry, Ohio, and again last year they had a member on the team. Each year the members have brought back many awards from Camp Perry. Major Hicks has interested many Omaha business concerns and civic organiza- tions in the unit at Creighton, and as a result they sponsor the parades that are held during the summer. Many of the organizations give individual prizes for the best private and for the best officer.

BURNS Cadet Colonel his service. One of the most coveted awards is that one given for the company that shows the most efficiency. Major Hicks has also desired to give his cadets an idea of war, so each year the unit holds a sham battle. The use of tear gas and the smoke screen is demonstrated in order to make the battle more realistic. Sometime during the year the graduates of the advanced course hold a mock trial when they court-martial one of the members. This year, Major Hicks, in order to further the interest of the basic students in the advanced corps, organized a basic militaly society. This society has made application to become a member of the Pan-Hellenic Council. It is separate from the ad- vanced corps fraternity and the main purpose is to create interest in the advanced corps and to act as a special escort to the honorary colonel. The R. O. T. C. Band has had the greatest success in its career. It has appeared over one of the local broadcasting stations, and has given many concerts both on the stage of local theatres and on football trips. Since 1921, when only one member graduated from the advanced corps, today there are 133 members of the advanced corps who have received commissions as sec- ond lieutenants in the Organized Reserves. Today the total enrollment of the unit is 301 basic members and twenty-six advanced corps members, of which nine will re- ceive commissions as second lieutenants. Members of the unit find little time hanging heavily on their hands, as all of the drill periods are taken up with a series of continued activity throughout the year. In fact, activitiy seems to be the by-word of the group.

All men of the University must have two years train- ing to become eligible for graduation. Those al- ready having the required training before enter- ing Creighton are eligible for the advanced courses of instruction, of which many take advantage. As the first big activity of the year, came the Nebraska Diamond Jubilee parade last October, when the entire Creighton R. O. T. C. participated. The corps marched the whole parade length, a dis- tance of five miles, and from reports entering the headquarters later, provided an unusual spectacle of discipline and marching. The R. O. T. C. Band also took part in the march and added much to the appearance of the unit. Approximately five other outside parades were held by the combined companies before the inclement weather set in, with the unit marching to various points through- out the city for their exercises. After the bad weather set in the unit took up its drill headquarters in the gymnasium. Two of the three hours of drill were devoted to in- struction in scouting, patrolling, first-aid, musketry fire, automatic rifle drill and other such activities. The third hour was devoted to actual drill work with the squads, platoons and companies. After the close of the winter season the unit again returns out-of-doors and holds a series of long hikes to acquaint the men in the problem of long forced marches. An added attraction to the outside drills is the annual field meet during which athletes of each of the companies vie for honors of the field.

This year seventeen members will receive commissions as first lieutenants of the Dental Reserve Corps of the Army. The course of study as outlined in the Dental Unit is quite similar to that of the medical department of the army, and is chiefly concerned with questions of sani- tation and hygiene, especially to oral infections such as trench mouth. Besides these, a thorough understanding of chemical warfare, especially in regard to poison- ous gases and their effects, is included in the course, due to the frequency with which dentists in the service come in contact with such emergencies.

The choice of King Creighten VIII fell upon Robert J. Clarey, Commerce, and that of his Queen upon Mae Fisher, St. Joseph ' s nurse, represent- ing the School of Law. From all standpoints the 1930 edition of the Prom far excelled all previous dances of this nature. Among the outstanding features of this climaxing social event were the announcement of the King and Queen, the grand coronation march and the spe- cial ballet dance of thirty girls. Dancing began at 9:30 and continued until 2 a. m., interrupted only by the coronation and ballet ceremonies. ROBERT J.

The first dance of the Creighton social season was the Frosh FroHc, the school ' s official wel- come to all incoming students. First year men were admitted free of charge upon presentation of the traditional green freshman head-piece. The new men, as a result of the party, not only became better acquainted with their fellow stu- dents but were initiated into Creighton social life at the party. The Bluejay Ball came next on the social calender at the Knights of Columbus club, as a fete to the football team for their efforts on the gridiron for the 1929 season. This dance held a special significance this year because the football team was the sole group honored, where before all the athletic teams were guests. Members of the squad were introduced individually to the audience by the cheer leaders, who led a series of school yells for the team. Music for the evening was furnished by Randall ' s Royal orchestra, premier band of Omaha. All members of the football squads, both varsity and freshmen, were admitted free, as guests of the Union. Combining all of the ideas of former successes, the Union staged as the third party the annual Carnival Dance at the Knights of Columbus club on the evening of February 19. With Randall ' s orchestra again playing and an abundance of con- fetti and streamers available, this party proved to be the most successful of the Union dances, with exception to the Prom. EDWARD D.

S !fa [g The Creighton Press Club qHE Creighton Press Club, a progeny of the past school year, had its inception as a result of the growing demand for a campus society to embrace the com- mon interests of students engaging in the various fields of writing. Accordingly, after considerable work on the part of various individuals, the club was formed with sixteen men forming the charter members. The primary purpose of the club is to foster interest in school publications and journalism with the ultimate end to enter a national journalistic fraternity. Meetings of the group were taken over to round-table discussion of journalistic problems not only local but in other college newspapers, magazines and year books. Featuring some of the meetings were prominent speakers and authorities on journal- ism who explained from actual experience just what the young journalist must face upon graduation. Activities of the club were many, considering its infancy and number of mem- bers. A special assembly period was sponsored by the group during February at which Mr. J. H. Furay, vice president of the United Press, spoke on the task of a news- gatherer. A club banquet and a Press frolic were also given by the club as the first of promised annual affairs. As its first effort to standardize student publication style at Creighton the group published a style book in which all possible rules and regulations as to college style of news writing were assembled. With the organization growing and its real need evidenced by its progress on lifting the publications of the school to a higher plane it has become another step in Creighton progress. m |[ c«. T tgbTriS T«a T abt«C!bT.iSUT aUI«JUI i5MI b T« S !

The productions staged during the past year were under the direction of Laurence Welch, a junior in the Creighton Law School, and Mary-Madeleine Lanphier of Duchesne College. As the first efforts of the infant club, three one-act plays were produced during the year. Besides the entertainment furnished, the plays gave actual training to the players, who were chosen from the regular student nurses. The first play, The Rehearsal, was a play within a play, concerning the efforts of a cast of eight girls endeavoring to work out the details of an amateur production. It was presented on November 27th at the Nurses ' Home. The second play, staged en the evening of December 23td, was Her Aunt From California, with a cast of six students. It is the plan of the group to add to the number of productions during the next season. Members of the club are: Ida C. Borth, Marie Cunningham, Florence Darcy, Romana O. Denkinger, Mary A. Karney, Marie Kempker, Gertrude M. Longeway, Julia A. Newvirth, Thelma O ' Kief, Josephine Prendergast, Florence Rivard, Irene M. Sramek, Marguerite A. Schricker, Mary Smith, Helen M. Tushla, Mary C.

It was formed for all those interested in the various phases of play production, not for the purpose of training professionals, but to encourage the expression of art and increase interest in drama. Acting, directing, property, and make-up are studied by the club members. Three one-act plays, presented by the club in April, were selected and produced by the directors, Lucille McGrath, Virginia Cooper and Mary-Madeleine Lanphier, who have aimed at the study and reproduction of the best drama. The Man in the Bowler Hat, a comedy, was produced by Lucille McGrath. Members of the cast were Eleanor Welsh, Marie Mann, Edith McShane, Marion Kent, Lucile Barry, Therese Higgins and Ruth Nothomb. Virginia Cooper directed a phantasy, The Maker of Dreams, which required three players, Mary Alice Gillin, Jane Shirley and Wyliette Heald. The Last of the Lowries, a tragedy, was handled by Mary-Madeleine Lanphier. Catherine Gibbons, Mary Fogarty, Bernadine Hunker and Virginia Mancuso played in the production. An extensive course in dramatic art will be offered at Duchesne next year, with dramatic production and voice culture featured by the director in charge. H |[c«. TnSJbT,fijbT aGI gbI ,C!

It dates from the time of Saint Madeleine Barat, i. e., the early part of the nineteenth century, and is now widely extended, having a center in every convent of the Sacred Heart throughout the world. The sodality has its own statutes and rules and is enriched with almost as many spiritual favors as the great congregation of the Prima Primaria in Rome, to which it has been affiliated. All students of Duchesne College are eligible to membership in the Sodality of the Children of Mary. The medal that each receives, gives them entrance and welcome into every convent of the Sacred Heart, no matter in what part of the world they may be. Moreover, they form the nuclues of the Ladies ' Children of Mary, that part of the sodality which is made up of former students and other women whose object is not only their own spiritual progress but the advancement of every religious and civic activity within the sphere of their influence.

Among the different activities and devotions performed by the Sodality are the singing of hymns, the recitation of various religious devotions and the attendance of a special sermon every Sunday. Twice a year, on December 28 and at the close of the May devotions, the Sodality nominates and elects their officers for the next season. Officers now presiding are: First Prefect, Josephine Prendergast; Second Prefect, Marie Cunningham; Secretary, Anna Marie Waldman.

Membership is open to all Catholic students of the college. Reception of new members takes place annually on December 8th, the feast of the Immaculate Con- ception. During the present school year. Miss Lunora Kirkpatrick has fulfilled the office of prefect. Miss Frances Miller the office of secretary, and Miss Adelaide O ' Keefe the office of assistant. In accordance with the national sodality movement, the organiza- tion is composed of five committees, each under the direction of a chairman. The chairmen this year were the Misses Marie Oliverius, Patricia Harrahill, Mary Emilie Flynn, Lillian Chapek and Frances Wise. Meetings of the Children of Mary were held weekly throughout the year. The annual May Day event of the College is sponsored by the Children of Mary. Three representative members of the organization are chosen by vote to take part as queens in the crowning ceremonies of Our Lady. cc«i T a T«a r auT abT«c T i T«afaT floiws T ;y Iny lta l« m [222] m lldU ySi ' l rKl ' iMKM.i M.S l S l m Commandant ' s Hundred I yN December 7th, 1929, upon the suggestion of Major Hicks, eight representa- tive mihtary basic students were chosen from the four companies of the bat- tahon to form a mihtary club or fraternity for the members of the basic corps. The expressed purpose of the organization was to create a comprehensive body from which the Major could make his selections for officers in the advanced group. The eight students, who were duly elected as the officers when the club became a working organization, immediately set out upon securing a tentative constitution and ritual, and chartering members to the club. Some thirty members were chartered. They are: Joseph Benneker, Norbert Berens, Donald Boyd, Clement Byrnes, Robert Chris- tiansen, Joseph Claus, William Dalton, John C. Egan, James Flynn, Francis E. Hohman, Charles Kirchner, Zane J. Thompson, Donald Wilson, Wilbur Werner, iLeRoy Lamb, Robert Lett, Patrick Lynam, John McCormick, James F. O ' Neil, Charles E. Osberg, Paul Redinger, James Roach, H. J. Roddy, Robert Rohr, Hugh Schwab, James Shackelford, Edward E. Suchy, John F. Swift, Clarence Wittier, Clarence Bornhorst, Bernard Vinardi, Francis Monroe, Albert Klein, Edmund Fro- hardt. At this pubhcation considerable work is being done to turn the club into a fra- ternity, and it is planned to attain this aim before the end of the present semester. m [223] iH g;ocsdc ;ocsdcsocsocsx)csocs9csdc ocsocs csocsocsdc The Knights of the Bluejay IqHE loud speaker at all Creighton basketball games is a group of men com- posed of students from every department of the university. This organization is called the Knights of the Bluejay. The Knights, who have evolved from two similar organizations of the past, are sponsored by the Students Union in co-operation with the athletic department. Immediately preceding the Knights were the Roaring Sev- enty, which were preceded by the Blue Loons. The group was organized by William Beattie, who was its first president and who was re-elected last fall. The Knights initiated forty-five new members into the organization prior to the athletic season and the total membership is now 109. The only requirements de- manded of the new men are a strong pair of lungs, plenty of school spirit, enthusiasm and initiative. The mettle of each candidate for membership is tested by a gruesome probation week and a thorough initiation. In addition to furnishing the noise and school spirit at all games with various forms of entertainment, the Knights sponsor various activities on the campus. At homecoming the Knights served the barbecue dinner and acted as guides at all points of congestion throughout the day. The Knights of the Bluejay are to the university what an entertainment com- mittee is to every well organized club.

The Association is dedicated to the spoken work and its aims are to bring out and develop talent in oratory, debating, dramatics and extempore speaking as well as encourage these arts. The activities of the organization are varied. Each year it sponsors special assemblies at which members present a program of oratory. This year it also under- took to extend these programs to the affiliated schools of Creighton and entertain- ments were given at St. Joseph ' s hospital, St. Catherine ' s hospital and Duchesne College. An intra-mural debate tournament is another feature of the organization. Debate teams representing classes, fraternities and other organizations participate. Many of the debaters for these teams are secured from the Oratorical Society itself since its weekly meetings are featured with debates, interpretative readings, orations and short plays. The outstanding event sponsored by the Association each year is the all-univer- sity contest in oratory, the winner of which receives a gold medal and the right to represent Creighton in the National Intercollegiate Oratorical contest. Officers of the Society during the past year are: Emmet Blaes, president; Leo Smith, vice president, and Walter McEveny, secretary. The Rev. Charles M. Ryan, S. J., is faculty moderator. flPli m [w i jg i«jys r aoi«aui c T jg l g l jy ln T«g T« M [225] H Kc«t Io I«ig r abi gc i« TWs T auT i50iwsu i )5bi« s !« i m Le Cercle Francais qHE French Club was organized at Creighton in 1925 under the supervision of Dr. A. A. Klammer, professor of modern languages. Since its organization it has become one of the most active clubs on the campus. The purpose of the club, as carried out at its regular meetings, is to develop and increase interest in French life, language, customs, traditions and history, to improve the facility in speaking French fluently and to put to practical use the French learned in the classroom. With this aim in mind French is spoken exclusively at the meetings and an effort is made by the club to vitalize the study of French by bringing the student into contacts such as the singing of French songs, and dramatizations, which might be unsuited for classroom work. The regular meetings are featured by illustrated lectures on the beauties of France and on the buildings and parks of Paris. Programs of the club also feature the read- ing of French anecdotes aloud to the group, the presentation of French plays, pro- gressive conversation or continued story and the readings of French folk dances. French on the phonograph has been a novelty introduced this year. Present officers of the club are: Bernel Deslauriers, president; Thomas J. Nuckolls, vice president, and Harold Moore, secretary and treasurer. Dr. A. A. Klammer and Prof. M. Howard are the faculty moderators. m lfca T a iwt!bT«auT sbT« gbT.iStoT a T floi iaMT iy iog i [Bl [226] m lt)SmT SM€SM J JK J ;M,SM S!i l0S T 2 The Pasteur Club f ME Pasteur Club, the first established science club on the Creighton campus, fO was organized in the spring of 1929 by a group of students who harbored a special interest in biology. The Club is an organization of individuals whose purpose is to aim at a more than ordinary degree of interest in biology and to benefit both themselves and the science by meetings and discussions. The name of the organi- zation is in honor of Louis Pasteur, pioneer in the field of biology. Meetings are held once a month, during which members discuss problems of a biological nature, with authority thrown on the subjects by prominent scientists and doctors. Examples of subjects talked upon during the past year include Cells, The Scope of Bacteriology and Nervous Disorders. Much of the success of the Club can be accredited to Prof. Ivan D. Farnsworth, sponsor of the group. Members of the organization for the 1920-30 year are: John Eagan, president; Loren Collins, vice president; Loyola Kaiser, secretary and treasurer, and Clement Boehler, business manager.

During the five years of its existence the Club under the direction of F. J. Solis, assistant professor of Spanish and moderator of the group, has been active in arousing interest and appreciation of the Spanish language among the student body. The purpose of the Club is to give students of Spanish a more practical knowl- edge of the language than can be gained in the classroom. With this in view, dis- cussion at the bi-monthly meetings is directed by the moderator in the Spanish lang- uage. Reports and short speeches in Spanish together with historical discussions of Spain and the Spanish people, are the procedures of the meetings. The constitution of the Club is written in Spanish and the minutes of all meet- ings are kept in that language. Membership in the Club is limited to second and third year students of Spanish. First year students who show special ability or interest in the Spanish language are admitted. Present officers of the Club are: Wendell Dwyer, president; Edwin Lehnen, vice president; Mary Wall, secretary, and Raymond Finnegan, reporter. m |:c« TWSJbiwi!bT abT«suT« gb!w sT.a T.,aoi. I ;y liiS l m [228] Hi Societas Latina f 7 NDER the above name the Classical Club was reorganized this year and a new constitutiin adopted. The entire advanced Latin class signed as charter members in the first semester, but on account of the requirement that mem- bers maintain a grade of eighty-five per cent the number was cut to nine for the sec- ond semester. Societas Latina, unlike the other language clubs, is not open to all students of the University who study Latin, but admits only advanced students who will be bene- fited by work in accordance with its object, to give men interested in Latin an oppor- tunity to acquaint themselves with Roman history and authors generally not seen within two years of advanced Latin, points which have been successfully followed out in the first year of the Club ' s existence. With John Gorman as president, Fred Mackenbrock vice president, and Maurice Langdon secretary, the first semester was decidely satisfactory. Beginning with Dr. Jacks ' lecture on the value of classical studies, the programs featured papers and talks given by the members on Roman life, customs and amusements, the development of Roman architecture, and the history of Rome. The second semester brought to the members an opportunity to read Plautus ' comedy, Duo Captivi, which was a source of interest as well as acquaintance with this comparatively little known author. In addition, some attention was given to the technique of translation and a few of the finer points of Latin composition. The present members are: M. Van Ackern, president; B. Deslauriers, vice presi- dent; D. Boyd, secretary. F. Mackenbrock, W. Longeway, F. Miller, T. J. Mc- Carthy, C. Kirchner and L. Smith. Mr. George P. Prendergast is faculty modrator.

It was organized in the fall of 1929 under the sponsorship of Professor A. K. Bettinger, head of the mathematics department at Creighton. The purpose of the Club is twofold. First, it is for the benefit of the department of mathematics itself, as it brings together all students of advanced study of the subject and such under-classmen as may be interested. It stimulates interest and develops a respect and feeling as well as an understanding for mathematics. For the student member, aside from the scholastic benefits, the group has proven to be a connecting link between the theoretical mathematics of the classroom and the practical mathematics of the modern business world. Meetings are held bi-monthly, consisting of smokers and discussions between the members and the reading of papers from some prominent business or professional man. Among speakers for the past year were well known civil, electrical and chemical engineers, and doctors and statisticians. The Club operates under a constitution and a semi-permanent board of officers. The sixteen charter members and officers are: President, Wendell Dwyer; vice presi- dent, Harry Whitaker; treasurer, R. J. Myers. Ambrose Kilday, Henry Sterling, Joseph Flynn, Robert Keenan, John O ' Brien, John Gorman, Joe Claus, William Whitaker, Stephen Dieringer, Frank Marrow, Torrence Kay, A. K.

Its purposes are to encour- age and reward scholarship, leadership and accomplishment along the lines of busi- ness and journalistic activity among the students. Outside of these purposes it forms an effective working unit for the promotion and execution of such student activities as are conducive to the best interests of the Commerce school. The members of the Commerce faculty appoint the students to active membership in the Chamber. The selections are based on high scholarship, leadership, and on manifestation of interest in the activities of the college, combined with accomplish- ments. Four members are selected from each class and the remainder are chosen from the college at large, making a group of twenty-four members. The Chamber promotes yearly three functions for the benefit of the entire stu- dent body of the Commerce school. First, an all-Commerce banquet to promote a spirit of good-fellowship among the students. Second, a journalism luncheon, held for the benefit of all students interested in journalism, which helps to foster writing and form a closer contact to all. And thirdly, an all-Commerce dinner dance, a social function which is in the nature of a final farewell to the graduating class. Besides these activities the members of the Chamber sponsored the organization of the Accountant ' s Round Table last year as a subsidiary to the Chamber of Com- merce. This group, with the purpose of discussion of round-table accounting prob- lems, has proved valuable to all concerned.

All fO members of the Club are lettermen in either football, basketball, swimming, or track. The various men who receive athletic monograms in major sports are automatically placed on the nomination board to be voted upon by members for admittance. Each year the new men are voted upon and those receiving admittances go through a strenuous initiation to test their morale and grit. This year the Club embraces a roster of twenty-nine athletes. Besides the initiation the main function of the Club is to give the annual Hard Times Party with all University men invited to attend. The night is featured by the beggarly appearance of all attending, and the selection of the Hobo Queen of the year. The Hobo Queen is always an athelete and the winner of the prize for the most unique dress. This dance is one of the genuine fun-fests of the year and is looked forward to with pleasure by the whole student body. CLUB ROSTER Faculty representatives: Rev. W. J. Corboy, S. J., and Dr. W. L.

Members of the Council are chosen from all the colleges and schools of the Uni- versity. These members are assigned to committees, which are under the direction of chairmen, who form a central or directing committee. Committees formed in this Council are: Eucharistic, Publicity, Our Lady ' s, Mission, Speakers, Catholic Litera- ture, and Catholic Thought. Its purpose is to work for the personal worth and holiness of the Catholic stu- dents in the University and to train its members and all students, who agree to ally themselves to its principles, for Catholic social action throughout the entire world. No mission field on the uttermost confines of the globe is beyond its endeavors. S ince its formation it has functioned very efficiently, averaging in one year nearly two hundred letters or articles in the public press, on Catholic thought and principles. Each year clothes, toys and candy are collected and shipped to the Dakota Indians. It maintains a book rack of fifty booklets and religious magazines in the University library, and a similar one in the reading room of the Knights of Columbus club. It encourages all spiritual activities in the University and is constantly alert to increase and encourage practices that aid in developing better Christian character.

More and more the leaders in the profession are installing their own x-ray units. They find that making their own radio- graphs enables them to render better ser- vice, to make their timie more profitable. They soon become expert in interpretation. And this ownership of an x-ray unit proves to be not an expense, but an investment from which they get a steady yield. The Victor CDX Dental X ray Unit has been a great factor in creating this vogue for individual ownership. The Victor CDX hangs suspended from the wall. It is elec- trically safe. Both transformer and tube, in- sulated in oil, are enclosed in the tube head. There is no high tension current exposed anywhere. You and your patient can touch the CDX anywhere while it is in operation. There is no danger of shock.

The first social function was a supper-dance at the college, featured by dancing and special entertainment. The first Madi Gras Ball was the climax of the Association ' s social attempts. The identity of the queen was kept secret until the night of the ball. The queen, who was chosen by the student body, was attended by six students who were chosen in the same way. A sister organization to the Athletic Association is the ' ' D Club, which, though composed of a very limited number of girls who were awarded letters according to the point system for excellence in one or more sports, or for consistent activity in school athletics, is not in itself an athletic organization. Letter awards were formally made at the Athletic Association ' s spring banquet. The work of the Physical Education Department culminated in the Review of Sports of 1930, presented early in May. It included novel representations of the various physical activities of the year — of golf, skating, winter sports, horseback riding, tennis, archery, volleyball, basketball, baseball, gymnastics, and tap dancing. Each subject was treated in a decidedly original, unique way. [240] Dramatics (Continued from Page 143 ) performance in Sunup, and Damian Flynn, who is known at his early age as a vet- eran actor, convulsed a packed house with their interpretations of the prize fighter ' s manager and the young millionaire roles, respectively. They were aided with some spirited playing by Francis Maguire, Mary Alice Gillin, and a diminutive Prep lad, John Fogarty. This play was the high spot of the season and judging from the amount of outside inquiry, it seemed tha t the Creighton Players had created a demand for the Gleason comedy throughout the state. ' ' Is Zat So was presented at the Knights of Columbus auditorium December 18. Others in the cast were Lyle F. O ' Rourke, Gene Mari Vani, W. Edwin Davis, Cecil Snyder, Doris Adkins, Hymen Shrier, Ralph H. Gross, Irene Glazik, and Richard Homan. In February, Bayard Veiller ' s The Thirteenth Chair was selected as the closing pre-Lenten vehicle for the Creighton Players. This has been known for years as one of the successful and deathless mystery plays of the past decade. But it is a play that calls for deft and experienced players, even though it be put on by amateurs. The cast was particularly remarkable in the fact that it brought four members from the College of Saint Mary ' s into the ranks of the Creighton Players for the first time since that school ' s affiliation with the University in 1929. Marie Catherine Oliver ius, a St. Mary ' s senior, carried the fascinating role of the lovable old faking medium, Rosalie LaGrange. Lawrence Krell, vice president of the Players, made his final ap- pearance with the Creighton Players as the detective. Maurice Alperin was the mur- dered Edward Wales, and Mary Emilie Flynn, St. Mary ' s senior, the suspected Helen O ' Neill. Donald Holley acted the important role of Roscoe Crosby, in whose home the murder was committed and solved. The two other St. Mary ' s girls were Adelaide O ' Keefe and Vivian Heffernan. Catherine Gibbons, Duchesne senior, played Helen Trent, while William Edwin Davis played the villain, Philip Mason. Others in the cast were Walter McEveny, Wilbur Warner, Doris Vivian Adkins, Bernard A. Martin, Louis James Grant, Halbert Chestal Chase, and Mary Bernadine Reilly. The one-act play, Box and Cox, by James Morton Madison, was the piece de resistance entered by the Creighton Players in the Theatre Tournament at North- western University. The cast was composed of Damian Flynn as Cox, Lawrence Welch as Box, and Marie Oliverius as Mrs. Bouncer. The play was performed locally at St. Mary ' s, St. Catherine ' s hospital, St. Joseph ' s hospital, and the varsity auditorium all in one week before departing for Chicago. A packed house greeted the performance at the auditorium and judging from the hearty laughs it elicited over the quaint century-old lines, its burlesquing by the superb acting of Flynn and Welch, put it in the little hit class. When the Players playd it in the tournament at Evanston, it was apparent that it was net strong enough to compete with the better one-act plays, despite the fine cast that Father Herbers selected for it, and failed to rate a place. However, the superb playing of Flynn did net go unnoticed, as he was awarded the E. H. Sothern medal for the best individual acting in the entire tourney. This was the only major prize that the Players did not collect last year when they walked away with the con- test, taking the cups for the best directed play, the best all-around play, and the cash award of 150.

V. ' ' Duce Belford, should reveal considerable talent of such caliber that the Bluejays can be represented in the Missouri Valley Conference tennis circles in the future. Winners of the singles and doubles will receive gold medals, while those in the runner-up position will be entitled to silver medals. Among the entries are Louis Gruenther, one of the best young players in Omaha and for two successive years Nebraska Interscholastic singles champ. Leo Cassidy, team-mate of Gruenther at Prep, is another entrant. He is the municipal court cham- pion of 1929. Nate Cutler and Jimmy Gleason are other ranking junior stars of Omaha who shall strive for first honors. From Kansas City there is Howard Loschke and Charles Lavery. The former is the muny champion of his home town and to- gether this pair holds the Kansas state doubles title. Intra-mural Handball (Conutined from Page IH) in the semi-final match that was easily the feature game of the tournament. The scores of the Stalmaster-Epstein battle were 16-21, 21-15 and 21-12. The fray was bitterly contested and it was just a question of which one of the men would crack first. Stalmaster and Blacker defeated the Mahoney-McDermott combination in the finals of the doubles play, by scores of 21-14 and 21-9. A peculiar feature of the winning pair was the fact that they were both left-handed, a rather odd combination in handball. Mahoney is also a southpaw, thus making three portsiders on the court at one time. At the outset of the tournament Mahoney and McDermott were not given much consideration but as the meet progressed it became apparent that they would have to be seriously reckoned with.

THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS of the Omaha Council extend to the Creighton Graduates of 1930 their con- gratulations and best w ishes .... With these good wishes is carried the hope that The Spirit of Progress which encouraged Creighton ' s founders be ever kept alive and serve as an inspiration for all her Alumni in the years to come.

The third meet of the season was against Drake at Creighton, but the Champs proved equally strong to overshadow the steady improvement of the Jays, the score remaining the same as in the previous meet. The final meet was again held at Des Moines, the occasion being the annual Missouri Valley Conference meet in which five teams competed. Washington LJ. won first place, presenting a strong and well balanced team winning easily over all contestants. Creighton presented a formidable contingent of earnest and willing swimmers, and Coach Wendell expressed his satisfaction at their efforts, since the records they made were the lowest of the year. Thus ended the firts season of swimming for the Hilltoppers. They should be given great credit for their efforts. Combined with the experienced swimmers of this year that will report next year, and the strong freshman team that was dveloped this year, Creighton should be ranked near the top rung of the scoring ladder. Of this fact, Coach Wendell is certain, and is looking forward with great anticipation of the opening of the second season.

Guests at the Prom were pleased with the selection of the orchestra which came only after a thorough search of nationally known bands. As a result Kassell, who ranks second to but one orchestra in national popularity, was chosen. Approximately two hundred and fifty couples attended the dance, making the whole affair a modern silhouette of the upmost in Creighton society. Twenty-five patrons and patronesses were in evidence giving the dance an even more dignified and pompish touch. [2491 or health,,.

His eye fell on a column in a paper that struck him by its odd title. He read, drinking in every drop of the morsels of beautiful prose and then folded the paper and threw it in the fire.

Such an egotistical view might be excused inasmuch as it has been said that such is the editor ' s privilege. However, to obtain this vaulted opinion it has been necessary that the co- operation, advice, suggestion, aid and criticism of many persons be obtained. Such was received and given and our endless thanks and appreciation is hereby stated. The staff — their aid was indispensible. From the administration — the deans of the various departments of the Uni- versity and their secretaries, Mother Deming at Duchesne, Sister Lavina at Saint Joseph ' s Hospital, Sister Mary John at Saint Catherine ' s Hospital, Sister Constance and Sister Mary Mark at the College of Saint Mary; the presidents of all the classes in every department, the Misses Pauline Craney, Marie Bell, Gertrude Gross, Flor- ence and Margaret Sullivan, and the faculties of the University — aid and co-opera- tion of a most gracious nature was received, and we are heartily thankful. To the following artisans — Frank W. Mawicke of the Pontiac Engraving and Electrotype Company and his staff of artists who created the color work in the book, H. Matsuo of Matsuo Studio and his efficient staff, Nat L. Dewell, Samuel B. Babcock of the Weber-McCrea Company and his artist, Frank McGrath, who de- signed the cover, and Harry Burkley, Jr., of the Burkley Envelope and Printing Company and his large staff, all of whom worked so hard to print the best Blue-Jay possibl e, and especially among this number are the Messrs. Harry Burkley, Sr., Robert W. Burkley, Carl Cook, Charles Dagg, Carl Kornmesser and Ray Lawrence — we owe an everlasting debt of gratitude. Also to Matt Barr of the University of Southern California, Ted Carpenter of Marquette University, Albert J. Porporato, Charles McDonald, Robert Evans, F. E. Pellegrin, Helen Tegeder, Majors G. R. Hicks and H. Houghland, U. S. A., and members of the Board of Governors, we are indebted for invaluable assistance. And to Edward D, Murphy and the Reverend J. A. Herbers, S. J., we are ap- preciative for the help and advice and energies in carrying us through several gloomy and difficult situations. And then to the student body of the University and its representatives we are thankful for the faith they bestowed upon us. —THE EDITOR [271] hojM htultjjjt PONTIACI kit ' iJe JallawimJ amontJ x fJwok ihiit iinofjj and appreamh ihe value of haviniJ im md iDny wlmol eleeied PONTJAClo Ijevebm ewke, andEm ' cwe ihk Mm Book kk thh hemol what it ihinhs of i I r 1 y ' ' 11 ff fr - iaS [272] L4!feLMcML y ?t ince the foundation of Z Creighton, the interests of this University have always been uppermost with ....
