The first white man to set foot upon the territory which Omaha now serves was the Spanish cavalier, Coronado, who, during the summer of 1540 with an expedition of several hundred men, explored the territory now known as the southwest, coming as far north as the Platte valley. In July, 1804, the Lewis and Clark expedition stopped to examine the curious collection of graves and mounds on a plateau on the west bank of the Missouri. They, perhaps, were the first white men to set foot on the spot where Omaha is now located. The first bona fide settlers of Douglas county arrived from the east and south in the spring of 1854. Most of them were of the industrial class, and all had but limited means with which to begin pioneer life. There were no habitations and the first houses consisted mostly of log cabins, sod houses and dug-outs. The early settlers were ambitious and proud of their city, which had been surveyed by one of them, A. D. Jones, and which consisted mostly of blue prints. The name they selected for the prospective metropolis was Omaha City. This name was bestowed in honor of the Omaha Indians, OMAHA AND CREIGHTON IN 1878 v ■q 10 who had ceded their lands in the vicinity of the new town. The word ' ' Omaha means: Above ail others on a stream. In confident expectancy of Omaha becoming the territorial capital, the citizens hastily erected a two-story brick statehouse on the west side of Ninth street, between Famam and Dodge streets. Governor Francis H. Burt of South Carolina arrived at Bellevue on Octo- ber 6, 1854, but died a few days later. Thomas B. Cuming, territorial sec- retary, automatically became acting governor and issued a proclamation for the election of members to the legislature and a delegate to congress. The legislature met in the state house January 16, 1855, and continued until March 17, most of the time being taken up with the fierce fight for the capital prize which was finally awarded to Omaha. The seat of government having been definitely fixed, the next step was the erection of an administration building on Capitol hill — now Central High School — in which sessions of the legislature were held from 1857 to 1867, the year in which Nebraska was admitted as a state. It was in this year that the capital was moved to Lincoln with little or no protest on the part of Omaha. In 1857 the population of Omaha was estimated to be between 1,500 and 1,800. Although the capital of the territory, it was still under a village form of government. The people now regarded this as an incongruity which should be eliminated and petitioned the legislature for a city charter. A bill to that effect was passed and approved on February 2. The financial breakdown in 1857 created a severe depression, which con- :|ll!: tinued through 1858. Business was brought to a standstill; despondency prevailing everywhere, and the growth of Omaha was halted. However, with the return of prosperity, in 1859, Omaha became an important outfitting point. On October 6, 1860, Omaha was connected by telegraph with the east by a line built from St. Louis by Edward Creighton, who, in the following year, also constructed the Pacific telegraph to Salt Lake, where it was hooked up with a line from California. On December 2, 1863, a memorable date in the history of Omaha, a dis- patch was received that President Lincoln had fixed the eastern terminus of the Union Pacific railroad at Council Bluffs. It was the turning point in the growth of Omaha, placing it indelibly upon the map of the nation as a great railway center. The people of Council Bluffs and Omaha hurriedly assembled and arranged a celebration on the Omaha side of the river and ground was broken for the inauguration of the great enterprise. The establishment of the Union Stockyards in 1884, and the consequent location of packing houses by leading packers have resulted in making Omaha the second largest live stock market and packing center in the world. The story of the Union Stockyards is the final chapter in the history of Omaha. The city ' s marvelous growth in seventy-five years would be incredi- ble if it were not proven by present conditions. Nor is there any doubt of its future progress provided its citizens follow the example of those who have gone before. They were men of high character, foresight, enterprise and loyalty. Jdook 1 ADMINISTRATION The First State House REV. PATRICK J. MAHAN, S. J The President ' s Message THE graduates of 1932 are going forth from Creighton to join the ranks of those who, by their ideals, their principles, their activities, are shaping the civilization and destinies of our country. They have acquired, it is true, a certain amount of practical knowledge and practical skill which fit them to earn a livelihood and even to gain a comfortable competence, but if this is all that they have gained, Creighton has failed in its sacred function of forming youth for worthy living and the graduates themselves are going forth with but a stone when they should have been given bread. It is the hope of Creighton, however, that her graduates are going forth with the con- viction that their most valuable possession is love for the social, moral, patriotic and religious ideals for which she stands, and that the true measure of success in their lives will be gauged by their loyalty to these ideals rather than by the amount of money they may be able to garner by reason of their knowledge, skill and industry. P. J. MAHAN, S. J. ..4:s ::|13 The oard of Regents IN the background of all of Creighton ' s accomplishments is the Board of Regents, composed of some of the most prominent and successful men of Omaha. These men through their executive ability, business connections and in- fluence are the impelling force of many Creighton projects. With its in- terest always at heart, they are ever on the alert to aid in establishing and maintaining the confidence and respect of the citizens of Omaha and the Middle West, in the University. Much of Creighton ' s prestige and prominence is due directly to these men. The good will that they have built up for the University is of immeasur- able value. The President of the University, the Rev. Patrick J. Mahan, S. J., is a member of the Board, in which capacity he represents directly the students and the faculty. The members of the present Board are: The Rev. Patrick J. Mahan, S. J., president of the University; William J. Coad, president of the Omaha Flour Mills Company; Fred Hamilton, vice-president of the Omaha National Bank, and Frank J. Burkley, president of the Burkley Envelope and Print- ing Company. Rev. P. J. Mahan, S. J. Fred Hamilton The oard of Trustees THE executive administration of the University rests in the hands of the Board of Trustees. This Board, composed of the president of the University and representative members of the faculty, directs and super- vises both the business and educational affairs of Creighton. They are the real powers of the institution. Much of the success and progress of the University is due directly to the work of this group. Representing every Creighton interest, these men guide the institution on its course, work out the problems of administration and make the plans for the future expansion of the various departments. Their constant endeavor and ability is proved by the rapid growth and expansion of all departments. As a result of their efforts, a perfect har- mony has been established between all branches. Heading the Board is the Rev. Patrick J. Mahan, S. J., president of the University. Other members are: The Rev. Thomas H. Murphy, S. J., treasurer of the University; the Rev. Eugene P. MuUaney, S. J., superin- tendent of grounds and buildings; the Rev. William J. Corboy, S. J., chair- man of the athletic board and dean of men; the Rev. Francis B. Cassilly, S. J., and Edward F. Leary, legal adviser of the Board. Rev. Mahan Rev. Murphy Rev. Corboy Rev. Cassilly R ev. Mullaney Edw. F. Leary S.J. S.J. S.J. S.J. S.J. A.B. Rev. Thomas H. Murphy, S. J The oAdministrative Officers THE Administrative Officers represent the entire scope of University activities from the athletic department to the library. Representative of every administrative department of the University, this group naturally has much to do with the welfare of each individual student. The Rev. W. J. Corboy, S. J., dean of men, represents the student body. Father Corboy, also chairman of the athletic board, retained his position as representative of the athletic department with A. A. Schabinger, director of athletics, when he succeeded the Rev. J. A. Herbers, S. J., as dean of men. The other Administrative Officers include the Rev. Thomas H. Murphy, S. J., treasurer, who represents the financial department; the Rev. Omer P. Sullivan, S. J., director of St. John ' s Hall; M. Isabelle Keyser, bursar; Clare McDermott, registrar, and Lucille Reynolds, head librarian. j Rev. O. P. Sullivan, S. J. A. A. Schabinger Clare McDermott Lucille Reynolds M. Isabelle Keyser The College of Commerce and Journalism THOUGH established only eleven years, the College of Commerce and Journalism ranks as one of the foremost departments of the University. Its pur- pose is to provide the graduate with a thorough knowledge of the theoretical and practical angles of present-day American business problems. The location of the department in a university in a large industrial and com- mercial center is advantageous. It provides close contacts with the actual affairs of business and makes it possible for the student to meet the leaders in the various branches of the modern business world. The college grants the degree of Bachelor of Science in Commerce to those successfully completing the four-year course. A Certificate in Jour- nalism is given in conjunction with the degree to journalism students. The course offered is divided into two divisions, the work of the first two years being devoted to required subjects with emphasis on a broad cultural Floyd E. Walsh ' Dean background, and that of the third and fourth years to highly speciahzed commerce courses. The journaUsm course is practi- cally the same, with stress being placed on journalism subjects the last two years. The Department of Journalism is locat- ed in this college because of the close al- liance of the modern newspaper with the business world. The department aims to give to the students a training in the fun- damentals of journalism, together with a sound economic and social background and a knowledge of the principles of business. The evening division of the College of Commerce and Journalism has become an important department. The en- rollment is steadily increasing and a majority of the faculty are now teaching night classes. Special emphasis is given to economics and accounting courses. The Chamber of Commerce, an honorary organization, was formed to en- courage and reward scholarship and leadership among the students along the lines of business and journalistic activity. The University Press Club, although not connected with the Chamber, is in active co-operation with it because of their parallel interests. Rev. John Danihy, S. J. liegent Bernard L. Johnson Gerald C.

This personality arises, not from things which are common, but from the elements in which one institution differs from others. The individual characteristic of the Col- lege of Arts and Sciences is to be found in the type of educational aim it has set for itself and in the means employed to obtain that end. In answer to the demand for cultural training which has largely been overthrown in this modern age of specialization in industry and education, the College of Arts has established a curriculum leading toward a general cultural education. The college attempts to train the students for citizen- ship and for an invigorating and thoughtful life. To this end, the curricula of the college are grouped around the disciplinary, cultural and informa- tional studies which we call the liberal arts. Education courses also are offered for those who desire to take up the profession of teaching. Rev. George A. Deglman. S. J. ' Dean W ' m f f f ? ♦   ■ r Rev. Thomas S. Bowdern, S. J. ' Dean of the graduate School In addition to the dissemination of gen- eral cultural education, the College of Arts and Sciences has another duty, that of pro- viding the general background for the stu- dents who go into the professional schools. The specialization of the medical, dental and legal units is built upon a general basic knowledge imparted by the College of Arts. Affiliated with the college is the Univer- sity College, a department formed for the first time this year. This department com- bines all of the extension courses and teach- ers courses. Students may be admitted to the University College without a high school diploma to study any special subjects they may desire. This new de- partment also provides an opportunity for girl students to receive any of the degrees offered by the College of Arts and Sciences. The Graduate School, also affiliated with the College of Arts, has control of all graduate work carried on in the University. It gives students, who have obtained their bachelor ' s degrees and who desire to work for a higher degree, opportunities for research in the various departments of the Uni- versity.

The School of Medicine THE School of Medicine works on the theory that a doctor needs more than a thorough knowledge of the medical sci- ences in order to be a successful practi- tioner and citizen. The doctors, as leaders in their communities, must be prepared to take the lead in its activities, and in order to do this must have a good cultural knowl- edge and moral stability. For this reason the faculty stresses the fact that the students must gain a general cultural background in addition to learn- ing the secrets of the laboratory. This training, however, is not allowed to intrude upon the teaching of the medical sciences. In addition to the class- room work under a large staff of competent doctors, there is a great deal of training received through clinical practice and instruction. The medical clinic is operated in co-operation with the pharmacy dis- pensary and the affiliated hospitals. It is here that the students have a chance for actual practice of medicine while still under the direction of in- structors. The clinic is open to the public and a large number of people mmw: j ' -f ?i !i n ' • . ■, V V A THE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE FACULTY unable to afford other medical attention are cared for by the student staff. The students working in the clinic pre- pare a diagnosis and prescribe treatment for the patients under the supervision of in- structors. Where prescriptions are needed, the student writes the prescription, which is checked by the supervisor and then is presented by the patient at the pharmacy dispensary to be filled. The student doctor ' s work is largely in specialized fields in the clinic. In addition to this he receives a knowledge of general practice when on call to visit the homes of persons too ill to report to the clinic. The School is now equipped with the most modern diagnostic instruments, and trained technicians are available to supplement the judgment of the physicians. There is a well-equipped laboratory, an X-ray department, and means of radiological treatment, for determining basal metabolism and electrocardiagram. In all cases requiring hospitalization, the facilities of St. Joseph ' s, St. Catherine ' s, St. Bernard ' s, Mercy and the County hospitals are at the dis- posal of the clinic. Rev. John J. McInerny, S. J. ' Regent Lawrence McNerthney Murl O. Anderson Emory J. Bourdeau George H. Arnold The College of dentistry BECAUSE dentistry is an important branch of the health service, the Dental College attempts to prepare its stu- dents to practice their profession in accord- ance with modern ideas regarding the pre- vention and treatment of disease. An ever- increasing emphasis is being laid on a gen- eral instruction in the medical scie nces as a foundation for specialization in oral work. Practical work in dentistry is used to supplement the theory taught in the class- room. The students work under the direc- tion of faculty supervisors in the clinic, which is equipped with facilities for eighty-six students to work at one time. Chairs of modern make equipped with fountain cuspidors and electric units of the most up-to-date type are at the disposal of the students. There is also a plentiful supply of gas, electric power and lamps, compressed air and hot and cold water. In ad- dition, the members of the senior class are provided with individual instru- ment cabinets. The clinic is in operation all twelve months of the year and is avail Dr. a. Hugh Hipple ■Deatt able to the public at all times. The four thousand patients registered annually are drawn not only from Omaha but from the surrounding territory in Nebraska and Iowa. The students are afforded a great variety of practice in all phases of oral work. They are taught to meet and handle patients and to diagnose new cases under supervision. By means of a methodical record, which contains every step from registration to completion of the operation, a reference is kept on hand for all work done by the student. This system provides that at the end of the year it can be readily determined whether the skill and experience of each student entitles him to pass in the practical work. Prospective patients are given a complete oral examination and diagnosis by the student under the supervision of a doctor. All the work is inspected and corrected by faculty advisers. It is in the clinic that the technical skill and the theory of the classroom are developed through actual work. It is here that the student lays sure foundations of careful, accurate and finished workmanship. Rev. John J. McInernYj S. J. ' Regent Charles M. Stebner Cecil G. Muller Roger V. Chastain Herluf C. Juul The School of Law N furtherance of the opinion that actual practice is as much an essential to a thorough education in law as is the theory gained in the classrooms and from text bocks, the faculty of the School of Law has planned the curriculum so as to give a well-balanced education in law. On the base provided by competent in- structors, an attempt is made to instill a practical knowledge of the workings of the courts and legislative bodies. As a means to this end, the Moot Court and the Model House, a model legislative house, were instituted. The Moot Court provides actual court practice for the embryo lawyers and trials, based on and following as closely as possible the actual court procedure, are carried out by the students. A faculty member presides as judge over all these trials wherein the senior students serve as lawyers, the juniors as witnesses and the freshmen as jurors. By following the Moot Court through the three years of the course, the student gains at least an elemenary knowledge of actual trial procedure. In addition, the faculty carries out the classroom theory on lawmaking by giving the students a chance to study the activi- ties of a parliamentary group by means of the Model House. The House is com- posed of the entire student body of the School of Law under the direction of a student Speaker of the House. The stu- dents serve on the various committees and carry through the acts of presenting, dis- cussing, passing and ratifying bills. The students thus are given some realization of the methods used by the various legisla- tive bodies. The pride of the Law School is its library, which contains some 30,000 volumes and which cover the field of law in all its ramifications as exten- sively and intensively as the greatest libraries in the country. Beginning with the Yearbook of 1307 in the reign of Edward II, the books on the shelves trace the progress of the Common Law through the centuries down to the decisions of the current terms of court in English speaking jurisdic- tions the world over. The library has 250 volume for each student enrolled, a ratio not exceeded by many law school libraries. Rev. John Danihy. S. J. %egent Howard C. Newton ean The College of Pharmacy THERE has been great progress in the practice of the profession of phar- macy in recent years. The educational requirements for admission are being in- creased while the field of activity of its members is being constantly broadened. Pharmacy college graduates today are sent forth with a thorough training in the fun- damental principles of chemistry and biol- ogy as well as in the applied science of pharmacy. The commercial side of the profession is coming in for increasing stress in order that the students may be better equipped to carry on in the world of business into which the majority of pharmacists must enter. The student pharmacist ' s practical training is received in the dispensary. Since the pharmacist is the doctor ' s chief assistant in his work for humanity in post-college life, the student pharmacist ' s training for this work is begun in aiding the student doctors by operating the dispensary. Work in the dispensary, which is located in the Medical building, is done by pharmacy students under the direction of a faculty supervisor. The stu- ' ,, ' : % . : 1Z dent doctor writes and signs prescriptions which must be approved by a faculty di- rector. The prescription is presented at the dispensary by the patient. The num- ber of the prescription is entered in a book by the student, who signs his name to it to show his responsibiUty. He then makes up the drug, and has it checked by a regis- tered pharmacist. When the patient re- ceives the medicine, he is charged from fifteen to forty cents, unless he is able to present a certificate from the social worker connected with the medicial clinic, which proves that he is unable to pay. Most of the prescriptions are non-proprietory, that is, originated for each case by specialists. If filled at drug stores at regular rates they would aver- age ninety cents. A large quantity of medicine is given away in this man- ner each year. The Creighton University College of Pharmacy has maintained a Class A rating since 1916. The success of its graduates is due, in part, to the progressive attitude which has kept the college among the foremost in adopt- ing newer ideas in formulating its curriculum. Rev. John J. McInerny, S. J. _- fl ' 1. u « Zs: Duchesne College DUCHESNE College, conducted by the Religious of the Sacred Heart, is the only Catholic College for women in Nebraska that offers a four- year course of higher education. In 1931, the golden jubilee of the Institu- tion, a new building was erected, and dedicated by Bishop Joseph F. Rummel to the work of Catholic education. From the date of its foundation to the present time there has been a program of constant improvement. Looked at from a different angle, however, it will be seen that there has been no change at Duchesne; the system of education remains the same. The Religious of the Sacred Heart base their whole system of education on the great underlying principles laid down by their sainted foundress. Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat. Buildings may change and new plans of study may be introduced, but everything converges to give to each student worth of character, strength of principle and anchorage in the faith. Besides laying a firm foundaton with regard to principle and duty, the college offers facility, because of its gymnasium, auditorium and library, for every activity of athletic, dramatic and literary nature. Thus, in line with the program of advancement at Creighton University, Duchesne College is continually building up in its students an understand- ing of Catholic principles and an appreciation of true culture. The College of St, SMary THE College of Saint Mary was organized in 1923 by the Sisters of Mercy, the first Religious Order in the state of Nebraska, who, since 1864, have been building up a large system of parochial and secondary schools in Omaha and other sections of Nebraska. The School has progressed rapidly from its beginning and has shown considerable growth. The Institution has continued to emphasize the educational standards which were laid down at the time of its organization. It adheres ardently to tested and approved methods of instruction and sponsors its own activities for the outlet of physical, intellectual and artistic talent. Improved and modem courses in education have b een emphasized and a commercial course was added to the curriculum in the fall of 1930. An en- tirely new course in physical education was added this year. Every member of the faculty is outstanding in his or her particular field. Many of them have been teaching since the organization of the School and have been devoted in their efforts for its improvement and growth. Its program has been in harmony with that of Creighton University and the College continually has been building up its student body and scholastic principles. Creighton Memorial Saint Joseph ' s Hospital SAINT Joseph ' s Hospital was established by the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in the autumn of 1880. The first small and un- pretentious building was located at Tenth and Mason streets and had ac- commodations for about one hundred patients. The present modem Insti- tution was made possible by Mrs. Sarah Emily Creighton who, attracted by the meritorious work of the Sisters, made a bequest of 50,000 for the erection of a new building, and additional funds were advanced by her hus- band, John A. Creighton, who was as much interested as his wife. The new building was completed in 1892 with accommodations for two hundred patients. The capacity was doubled in 1908 and a clinical amphi- theatre for teaching purposes was added. An annex, providing the neces- sary room and modem equipment for the care and treatment of nervous and mental diseases was added in 1923. The Nurses Home, also erected in 1923, is a modem structure equipped to accommodate one hundred fifty nurses. The School of Nursing was affiliated with Creighton University February 1, 1928, in order to give the student nurses a chance to realize university training and they since have been matriculated by the University. The course offered is of three years ' duration and, when completed, a Certificate in Nursing is granted. A degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing may be obtained with two additional years of work. ' j!: !iii-m Saint Catherine ' s Hospital SAINT Catherine ' s Hospital, organized by the Sisters of Mercy on the bequest of a home at 811 Forest Avenue by Mrs. Catherine Nash, was opened December 8, 1910, as a maternity hospital. However, it was soon apparent that there was not sufficient demand for a hospital devoted solely to maternity work at that time, in view of which fact it was later changed to a general hospital. Increasing demands and lack of room made a new wing necessary. Con- struction was begun in 1915 and completed the following year. Soon again the needs of the Hospital demanded more room, and another large addition was completed in 1925. The Hospital now has adequate capacity for one hundred sixty-five patients, and if necessity demands, the number can be increased. During the past year many improvements have been made, and new equipment in the surgical, obstetrical, X-ray and laboratory depart- ments has been added. The nurses ' home, a modern structure, was erected in 1926. In January, 1929, the School of Nursing became affiliated with Creighton University and since then the students have been matriculated by the latter Institution. A three-year course is offered at the completion of which a Certificate in Nursing is granted. A degree of Bachelor of Science in Nurs- ing may be obtained with two additional years of work. cMercy and Saint Bernard ' s Hospitals THE affiliation of Mercy and Saint Bernard ' s Hospitals of Council Bluffs November 1, 1931, with the Creighton University School of Medicine has been the greatest achievement, during the past year, in con- nection with the University ' s program of expansion. The addition of these two hospitals ranks the School of Medicine among the leading medical schools west of the Mississippi and classes it as one of the best equipped for clinical purposes. Increased enrollment, requiring additional clinical facilities, necessitated the association which was made to accommodate the extra students. It also affords an opportunity for medical graduates to serve internships there. A teaching staff in medicine and surgery was formed at Mercy Hospital and its members were elected as extra-mural members of the medical faculty. Clinical classes for seniors are held each morning except Saturdays and Sun- days. The classes are being given in connection with those conducted at Saint Joseph ' s, Saint Catherine ' s and the County Hospitals. The affiliation of Saint Bernard ' s Hospital also enlarges the excellent facilities of the Medical School, particularly in the study of nervous and mental cases. Mercy Hospital has a capacity of one hundred fifty beds and Saint Bernard ' s has a capacity of two hundred thirty-five, and, if necessary, the number of both can be increased.

Under the direction of this council and the preceding one, the year 1931-32 has been the most active and progressive in the history of the association. Some of the work was: Alumnae of the affiliated departments for women were admitted to membership; the first annual University-Alumni spring convocation was held during commencement week; the Creighton Univer- sity of the Air was successfully sponsored; membership dues were abolished and the Creighton Alumni Loyalty Fund substituted in their place; one of the largest Homecomings in history was held October 17; facilities of the alumni office were expanded and improvements were made in The Creighton Alumnus. In addition several social functions were held under the auspices of the association. L. O. Mather Judge Fitzgerald O. T. Doerr Dr. W. L. Sucha Hugh A. Fogerty W. P. Kelly AM ::|37i:: ' l - - Heading an ambitious program outlined for the coming year are plans to inaugur- ate an Alumni University during com- mencement week of 1932 or 1933, to which alumni may return for short but extensive courses in which they may be interested. The organization of local Creighton alumni clubs in cities throughout the country, and a campaign to secure new students for the University with the aid of the alumni is also being stressed. Members of the 1932 graduating classes will be received into the Association at the University - Alumni convocation during Commencement week, to take their places with the other 4,500 members of the association. They will be expected to step to the front of alumni activity, as other graduating classes have done, and to bring glory to their association and to the University by fulfilling President Mahan ' s assertion that the Alumni are the University. By means of The Creighton Alumnus they will keep in touch with latest developments of the University and the Association. Facilities of the alumni office will be placed at their disposal in securing pro- fessional or business locations, in locating their classmates, and other services. Frank E. Pellegrin Secretary X.- ,— THE HOMECOMING BARBECUE IN THE GYM HP The Students Union STUDENT government at Creighton, since its inception in 1922, has been a successful and popular venture. It has proven to be a vital factor in moulding the interests of the student body together and in promoting a wide range of campus activity. Including in its membership every male student of the University, The Students Union has steadily enlarged its scope until now it controls practically every major activity on the campus. Two students from each department of the University, elected by the student body, com- pose the governing body of the Union. The Dean of Men serves as the faculty moderator of the Board and a manager who is a full time employee acts as supervisor over all the workings and represents the Union Board of Governors in official capacity. Club rooms in the gymnasium building serve as a means of recreation for members. The rooms are open from 1 1 o ' clock in the morning until 9 o ' clock at night. Billiard and card tables, a lunch room, reading room, candy cage, Rev. W. J. CoRBOY, S. J Faculty ' Representative G. McCabe R. Dickason B.Foley J, O ' Connor R. McNally P.Burns ping pong table and a radio are some of the conveniences provided in these club rooms. Chief among the activities of the Union is the maintenance of a student employ- ment bureau. This bureau was exception- ally helpful this year in placing students in part time positions. A canvass of busi- ness houses was made this year in Omaha by the Union Manager in an effort to find positions that deserving students might fill. The Union ' s rooming house service en- ables students to find comfortable and de- sirable rooms when school opens in the fall. During the summer a list of desirable rooms is compiled and this is given to any student asking for it. Other activities include the sponsoring of four all-University dances each year, climaxed by the Junior-Senior Prom and a spring carnival dance. The Union is also the publisher and sponsor of all University publica- tions, including The Creightonian, weekly newspaper; Shadows, literary magazine; The Blue- J ay, Creighton year-book, and the Student and Faculty Directory. All advertising in these publications is under the direct super- George M. McCabe T ' resident tr %.t wm R. Glassmaker G. Rubatt R. McGargill G. O ' Neil T. Wilhelm E. Jelen vision of the Union Manager who heads the newly formed advertising bureau con- sisting of three advertising solicitors. The Creighton Players, dramatic organi- _ zation of the University, is still another E 1 T- M activity sponsored by the Union. These numerous activities of the Stu- dents Union are controlled directly by the Union Board of Governors, the Union Manager and the Faculty Moderator. This body meets the first and third Monday of each month to discuss matters important to the welfare of the various organizations under its supervision. Besides their duties as supervisors and directors, the group also is responsible for the appoint- ment of the editors and advertising managers of most of the publications. The annual pay roll of the Union, totaling over 4,500, is additional evi- dence that this organization is of major importance on the campus. Only students are employed and many are helped through school in this way. Through its increased activity this year the Students Union has continued to serve as a unifying and binding factor for the student body. In it is re- flected the spirit of all University activity. Edward D. Murphy M ' H2f l ::|42 Publicity ORGANIZED in 1924, the Creighton University News Bureau has for its purpose the dissemination of news concern- ing the educational, rehgious, cultural and civic activity of the University. The chief duty of the director of the News Bureau is to carry on public relations work for the University. Each week news letters, containing information concerning all the various activities, are sent out to over seven hundred newspapers scattered throughout the country, and to national news, feature and picture agencies. Con- nections are also maintained with eastern and western cable stations. The director also aids in the supervision of the Creighton University of the Air, which is broadcast daily over a local radio station from a remote con- trol studio in the Administration Building. The Bureau also maintains its own picture developing department. In order to keep abreast of current de- velopments, the News Bureau maintains a membership in the American Col- lege Publicity Association, made up of members from the leading universi- ties throughout the United States.

The first showing of the team to the public by Coach Art Stark brought out a parade of good sophomore backs, a fast, hard charging line and a co- ordination between the two that was surprising for such an early game. The outstanding performance of the game was turned in by Jack Garland, sophomore halfback, who made a 56 yard jaunt through the Baker team and JOHNSON GUARD 112 made possible the fourth touchdown. Through a cleri- cal error, Garland was later declared ineligible. Mildly confident because of their initial victory, the Bluejays lined up the next Saturday against a cock- sure Wyoming University eleven and after a game replete with thrilling work on the part of both teams the Creighton eleven, due to a placement kick by Captain Billy Worthing, won by a score of 3 to 0. The invading Cowboys boasted a passing combina- tion in Ross and King that kept the Omahans constant- ly worried. Time after time these two collaborated to carry the ball deep into Creighton territory, and on one occasion the westerners were inside of the Creigh- ton five-yard line. The work of Creighton ' s line in holding on this drive was commendable, and Sklenar, Balderson, Pickett and Lindvahl were outstanding. 113]:: 1 -rrrini COLLIN HALFBACK CAMPBELL HALFBACK Worthing ' s beautiful place kick, sailing squarely between the uprights with only three minutes to play, was the outstanding play of the afternoon. The sweet taste of victory did not remain with the Bluejays for long, however, for on the following week- end the Drake University team, which went on to win the Missouri Valley conference championship, handed the Creighton team its first setback. A completed pass, an intercepted pass, and a sus- tained drive combined to give the Bulldog forces three touchdowns and their victory. Billy Goodwin, Drake ' s star quarterback, intercepted a pass and ran 45 yards for one of the touchdowns on the most sensational play of the day. Eldon Lindstrom, a sophomore half- back, and Lloyd Lansrud, pole vault star of the Drake track team, combined to carry the ball down the field on a concerted drive, and Captain John Briiey received a pass that put the ball in position for the third score. Creighton scored on straight football, and although the defeat put the team out of the running for the Missouri Valley championship, several individual stars shone brightly. Sklenar, Collin, Gordon, Almgren and Pickett are but a few of these men. Homecoming and its attendant ceremonies occu- pied the minds of Creighton students on the follow- ing week-end, and as a climax to a day of great activ- ity the Creighton football team gave the old grads and students a 40 to victory over Washington Uni- versity to cheer about. Every department of play clicked in machine-like fashion as the Bluejays piled up their biggest score since 1920. Cornie Collin, sophomore backfield star, again dis- SKLENAR — TACKLE TILLOTSON FULLBACK SKODA h CENTER tinguished himself with an 80 yard sprint through the entire Washington team for a touchdown. Col- lin ' s spectacular run was the longest reeled off in the Creighton stadium all season. Another touchdown and two successful place kicks gave Collin leading scoring honors of the game. The play of the entire squad was so high that to single out a single star is im- possible. Sklenar and Collin shared highest honors. Tulsa University handed the Jays their second de- feat of the season on the following week-end when, crippled by the loss of several regulars through in- eligibilities and injuries and placed at a disadvantage by terrific heat, the Omahans wilted in the final per- iods and the Hurricane team piled up a 28 to score. Captain Ishmael Pilkington, Howard, Volok and Boehm starred as the southerners tallied a touchdown 4 1. A N fit ' 116 per period. For Creighton, Pickett, Dorwart, Worth- ing and Sklenar were outstanding. Louis Weller, the sHppery red-skin, who thrilled Homecomers two years ago with a sensational 105 yard sprint through the Creighton team, put the In- dian sign on them on the next week-end, when, after entering the game late in the second quarter, he ran through the team for a touchdown on a pun t return. From this point on the Omahans were constantly chasing Weller all over the field, and meeting with little success in their efforts to catch him. Aiding Weller in his outclassing of the Creighton forces was Great Manitou Walter Johnson, Haskell fullback. Creighton ' s team was still hampered by injuries, but the line made a remarkable showing. Dorwart, Pick- ett, Archer and Sklenar were outstanding players. ::I117I:: KEHOLM TACKLE Back into the state of Oklahoma on the following week-end, the Bluejays again met a heat wave, and the Oklahoma Aggies won a share of the Missouri Valley conference crown with a 20 to victory over the Omahans. Trigg and Barhan, veterans of several seasons of campaigning and highly capable backs, led the way as the Oklahomans ran through the Jays, who, heat-struck, lost their power and punch after an early drive into Oklahoma territory, Creighton ' s line was almost shot to pieces by injuries and a lack of reserve power told heavily. Oates, Nemecek, and Dotter, stars of the Aggie line, opened wide gaps through which the Aggies scamp- ered, and were the stars of the game. Creighton ' s best bets were Sklenar, Pickett, Gordon, Moran, Jelen and Worthing. Another Merriwellian climax gave Creighton its fourth and final victory of the season on the follow- ing week-end when in a deep quagmire on Creighton field, Sylvester Pawol, a reserve end, leaped on a free ball over the goal line to secure a touchdown which provided the major impetus for an 8 to win over Grinnell College. The drizzle which fell all through the afternoon almost completely crippled the Pioneer attack which was built around Hank Thomas, a specialist in speed plays and passes. Thomas ' attempt to encircle the Creighton ends were ineffectual because of the slip- pery footing and his passes were erratic. He showed, however, that he was one of the most capable men in the Missouri Valley conference and Creighton follow- ers had reason to believe that on a dry day his passes KOSTORYZ END would have meant scores for the invaders. The Creigh- ton attack was also somewhat crippled by the weather conditions but succeeded in functioning well enough to put the ball in scoring position. Comie Collin lugged the oval across the goal but fumbled and Pawol, who was making his first appearance in the Creighton lineup since being forced out by injuries in an early game, leaped on the ball to score. The other Creighton points were scored shortly afterwards when a horde of Blue jay linemen found Hank Thomas trying to run with the ball from be- hind his own goal line on a fake punt. Thomas and Duncan were the stars for the Grin- nell eleven while Pawol, Collin, Gordon, Sklenar and Lindvahl stood out for Creighton. Marquette University tacked the fifth defeat of the KEARNEV END year on the Creighton record in the final game of the season in Milwaukee when the Golden Avalanche pushed over a touchdown in the last few moments of the struggle to win 7 to 0. Throughout the afternoon a supposedly inferior Creighton team had effectually bottled up the great stars of a fine Marquette team. John Sislc, the Big Train of the Milwaukee Hilltop, had failed to break loose and Ronzani and others had also been stopped with little or no gain. Time after time the long spirals of Cornie Collin kept the Creighton eleven out of tight places. The Creighton line had held up remarkably, and Keholm, Sklenar, Dorwart and Pickett had shone brilliantly. But for a brief moment in that fourth quarter the Creighton eleven, weary from the great battle it had PAWOL END _uaLi(kj fought, stepped back and on a reverse, John Sisk ran eight yards and scored. The man whom Creighton had been playing for all afternoon and whom they had stopped on nearly every occasion was Sisk, and yet it was he who dashed across with the winning score. Art Stark is going to pick up where he left off. Creighton played its best game of the year against Marquette, and the sting of defeat failed to remove any of the brilliancy from the play of the team. A fine crop of freshman linemen, a number of in- eligibles of last season who have returned and will be eligible next fall and the return of 19 of the 20 letter- men brightens the outlook considerably. Heading the Creighton team of next season will be Dick Sklenar, elected as captain by a near unanimous choice of his mates on last year ' s squad. Sklenar has GUARD GORDON HALFBACK been the bright spot of the Creighton line for the past two seasons and he has taken care of his tackle post in great shape. Along with Sklenar on the all-conference selections last fall was Cornie Collin, brilliant sophomore back, whose offensive ability was the feature of the Creigh- ton backfield play throughout the year. Collin is a triple-threat back who punts, passes and carries the ball with equal skill. His punting was the outstand- ing bit of kicking in the conference and his ball carry- ing in several games bordered on the meteoric. Captain Worthing, Pickett, Dorwart, Kearney and Rose were generally accorded second ratings. Rose, however, was the only Creighton man on the all-mid- western selections of Clyde McBride. He was placed at fullback on the second team. «.. « im. • mm . .MM : .1 1 - l H ) i l. - LON , WILLIE AND ART TALK THINGS OVER Freshman Football A STRING of victories, which had extended over a period of three years, - came to an end last fall in the final game of the season when the freshmen of Drake University scored a 6 to victory over the Creighton University freshmen team on the Creighton field Thanksgiving day. That defeat, although it broke the Creighton victory string and avenged a victory by Creighton the year before, failed to dim the brilliancy of Creighton ' s freshman team, which won its other two games of the season and developed a galaxy of stars who will fit into the 1932 varsity eleven. In the first game of the sea- son the yearlings scored a de- cisive 20 to victory over Nor- folk Junior College on the af- ternoon of Homecoming Day, Joseph C. Serpe Captain J. V. Belford Coach THE FRESHMAN SQUAD October 17. In this game they showed a surprisingly strong line and sev- eral capable backs. On November 7 they won a 7 to victory over Kearney Normal in a hard fought game on the Ke arney field. The outstaters proved to be an unexpectedly stellar foe and it was until late in the game that the touch- down was made. A driving rain, which near- ly caused postponement of the game, proved fatal to the Jay yearlings in the Drake game. A muddy field crippled the of- fensive thrusts of both teams and the game turned into a punting duel. Late in the finil period a Drake lineman broke through to block a Creighton kick and score the winning touchdown. Walter J. Holden Coach Dr. S. a. Caniglia Coach 128 . ltlGHry ANOTHER season of - triumphs has been added to Creigh- ton University basketball history with sev- enteen victories and four defeats chalked up as the record of the 1931-32 Bluejay cage five. Differentiating the past season from other great seasons in Creighton bas- ketball is the relative strength of opponents during the past season and other seasons of great triumphs by Creighton teams. Thirteen schools made up the twenty-one game schedule which Head Coach A. A. Schabinger, Captain Maurice Van Ackeren, and the Bluejay squad romped through with victory after victory. The leading universities of the country were placed on the card which was, at the beginning of the season, termed as suicidal as a Notre Dame football schedule. The schedule proved to be just as suicidal as a Notre Dame football schedule, for, just as Notre A. Schabinger CoacI}., Binder, Paben, T. Wiesner, Skoda, F. Wiesner, Kockrow, Collin, Van Ackeren J. V. Belford, Kiely, Miller, Schmidt, Joe Schabinger, Davis, Worthing, A. A. Schabinger r- A. KOCKROW FORWARD Dame football teams romp victoriously through the most severe tests the nation can offer, so did the Creighton basketball team successfully compete against the strongest basketball teams in the nation. The mighty Trojan horde from the University of Southern California invaded Omaha for the initial game of the season and the Pacific coast representa- tives were harshly dealt with as the Blues opened their card with a 25 to 17 victory. From the opening whistle to the final gun the Creighton team, with three sopho- mores in the lineup during most of the game, swept through the westerners ' defense for short shots, showing a surprising accuracy. Art Kiely led the Creighton squad in scoring with nine points. The second game of the season brought Elwood Woody Romney, brilliant all-around basketball player, to Omaha as a member of the Brigham Young University basketball team. Rcmney was hurt with a badly sprained ankle but he took his place in the Brigham Young lineup and gave one of the most remarkable individual exhibitions of the year. How- ever, even the stalwart efforts of this brilliant Brigham Young star could not offset the scintillating first half play of Comic Collin. The final score gave Creighton a 41 to 35 advantage. Romney was slightly ahead of Collin in scoring with 16 points. Collin tallied 15. The Creighton squad then broke up until after Christmas holidays. When it returned to the wars on January 7 it met Missouri University in Columbia and after a thrilling battle eked out a 35 to 34 win. Art Kiely, brilliant Jay guard, tallied a goal in the last seconds of the game to bring Creighton the victory. VAN ACK£R£N FORWARD ! PIEPER CENIkR The following evening Kiely missed few shots, if any, as the Creighton team ran up its fourth straight victory, this time over Washington University by a 35 to 28 score. Washington stopped Collin and Cap- tain Van Ackeren, Creighton ' s star forwards, but Kiely tallied 16 points to lead the Jays to another win. The Jays were given a rousing welcome when they returned to their home floor to meet the Oklahoma Aggies and they stepped into the lead immediately in one of their greatest performances of the season and with Cornie Collin leading the way with 20 points, they scored a 65 to 23 triumph. The sixth Creighton victory was chalked up in the next tilt against Drake when the Bluejays scored a 43 to 17 decision. Again it was Collin who led the Creighton five in scoring when he made 14 points. MILLER — GUARD The seventh and last of Creighton ' s early season consecutive victory string was rung up at Grinnell when the Bluejays completed the first half of their swing around the Missouri Valley conference unde- feated with a 41 to 28 victory. Willard Schmidt scored 15 points to cop high point honors. Defeat finally caught up with the Creighton five when the Golden Avalanche of Marquette University scored a 30 to 24 victory over a road-weary Creighton team. In a fatal first half the Creighton defense, which had been so stellar in previous games, finally came to the long overdue cracking point, and the Mil- waulceeans ran through for a ten point lead. Creigh- ton ' s last half rally fell short of its mark, and the Bluejay victory string had come to its end. The Creighton five returned home to engage Mis- FWIESNER CENTER souri University in a return game and the Tigers scored a 26 to 23 victory in one of the most hard fought games of the season. The Tiger five required an extra period to avenge their early season defeat, and Coach Schabinger lost the first extra period game of his coaching career when Cooper made 5 points. Creighton regained its winning ways temporarily in the return game with the Oklahoma Aggies at Still- water. Captain Van Ackeren regained his scoring eye as he led the Jays, with 17 points, to a 33 to 25 win. The Syracuse quintet, representing the strongest kind of competition the East could offer, came to Creighton for a pair of games on February 5 and 6 and in the first scored a 25 to 19 win over the B luejays. The following evening, however, the process was reversed and the Omahans held the easterners to a WORTHING -GUARD ::Il34 single field goal, that in the last few minutes of the game, to score a 30 to 7 victory. Captain Van Ackeren and Cornie Collin shared scoring honors with nine points each. Art Kiely and Bob Miller, a sophomore who had just won himself a place in the starting line- up, bottled up the Syracuse offense so effectively that throughout the first thirty-six minutes of play the easterners could not get a field goal. Less than a week later the Creighton five practically sewed up the championship of the Missouri Valley conference when it outscored Washington University 26 to 21. The Bluejays had lost a great deal of the power they had displayed in the second game with Syracuse but rallied in the last half, and with Kiely and Miller holding Washington to but six points in the last period the Jays easily won. SCHMIDT - CENTER Drake University came to Omaha for a return game on February 16. The Bulldogs scored 24 points during the game but Creighton, with Captain Van Ackeren, Collin and Schmidt leading the way, tallied 48. Van Ackeren led the scoring with 17 points. The Creighton team then invaded the East to meet three of the leading teams of the Atlantic seaboard region. The first stop of the trip was in Pittsburgh and the Panthers avenged a defeat of the 1930-31 season when they scored in the last minute to win bv 21 to 19. This was the only defeat of the trip. On Washington ' s two-hundredth birth anniversary the Creighton five met a band of rugged Moun taineers from West Virginia University and won a hairline victory by a 27 to 26 score. Cornie Collin, Creighton forward, led the team in scoring with 10 points. The greatest triumph a Creighton basketball team has ever won was scored two days later when the U. S. Military Academy at West Point, with a vet- eran team of star players, bowed to the Creighton five, 39 to 32. Maurice Van Ackeren, brilliant Creighton captain, kept pace with Ray Stecker, Army three sport star, to tie for high scoring honors with 12 points. The Creighton team followed their stirring eastern victories with a sound win over Marquette University, 5 1 to 22, Captain Van Ackeren turned in his most brilliant individual performance of the season with 18 points. In the final game of the regular season the Creighton five kept its record in Missouri Valley conference competition clean with a 38 to 27 victory over Grinnell College. The Pioneers pressed the Bluejays hard all the way and led most of the first half. The Jays forged into a 16 to 13 lead at the half and in the final period ran up their total with little difficulty. In two extra games with Nebraska University, the Creighton five added two more victories to its record when it defeated the Huskers by 47 to 18 in the game in Omaha and 29 to 26 in the game at Lincoln. Freshman basketball THE only undefeated Creighton team of the year was Coach J. V. Bel- ford ' s Bluejay freshman basketball quintet which in its only two starts, both against Norfolk Junior College, won sound victories. In the first game which was played on the outstater ' s court, the Jay year- lings found difficulty in finding the range until late in the game and it was not until all but two minutes of the game had been played that they knotted the count at 34-all, Here two more goals were dropped to give the Bluejays a 38 to 34 victory. After a long layoff Belford ' s proteges again proved that they were superior to the outstaters, especially in the last half when , , , they increased their halftime ,.■ lead of 16 to 10 to gain a final victory of 45 to 18. . ' 4 Joseph H. Gibbons Captam ! ' M. .. ; , r ? . i ' x - ■■ c- h ' JI An - The 1932 Season THREE dual meets, the Hastings Relays, the Drake Relays and the Missouri Valley Confer- ence Meet make up the Creighton University track schedule through which Coach Lon R. Graf and his Bluejay cinder artists are now going. The opening meet of the season brought the Peru Normal trackmen to Omaha for their second annual dual meet with the Jays. A well balanced squad with great strength in the two mile, the sprints and the field events gave Peru a victory by a score of S Vz to 45y2. Starring brilliantly in spite of the Creighton defeat was the work of Bob Lanyon, Amil Kubat, Basil Olson and Clint Dorwart. Lanyon scampered home — LANYON lf ' - ::| 140 first in the 120-yard high hurdles in : 16.5 seconds. The mark was a new meet record as was his time of :26.6 seconds in the 220-yard low hurdles. Lanyon also competed in the relay and his 220-yard stretch was one of the fastest turned in by the Creighton quartet, which was beaten by Peru in the fast time of 1:37.5. Kubat turned in a mile time of 4:43.5, respectable time for the first outdoor meet of the season. This was the only event in which the former Tech star competed, since he had spent most of the preceding week on a sick bed. Olson broke the tape in the 440-yard dash in :53.6 seconds after having competed in the 220-yard dash. Dorwart won Creighton ' s only other first place of the meet when he threw the discus 110 feet, 10 inches for first place. John Moran, Wymore red head, com- peted in street clothes, but was only two feet behind Dorwart and won second place. In the sprints Peru came through for 17 out of 18 points when Perdue, Littrel and Bruce swept to the tape ahead of Creighton men in the 100-yard dash and Bruce and Littrel won first and second in the 220- yard dash. Dick Raschke, who had not yet rounded into form, was third in the 220-yard event. Jim Kostoryz won third in the 440-yard dash; Ver- gil Anderson finished just behind Carl Ludington of Peru and just ahead of Bill Ludington of Peru to cop second in the half mile run; Whers Lindvall copped third in the javelin throw; Harold Crawford finished second in the low hurdles; Don Murphy tied for third in the high jump, and Ronald Skoda placed second in the pole vault to win Creighton ' s other points. — KUBAT — On the week-end of April 16 the Jays were repre- sented in the Hastings Relay carnival by a two-mile team. The members of this team were Basil Olson, Vergil Anderson, Amil Kubat and Vincent Dimig. The results were obtained too late to be included in the Blue-Jay. At this writing Coach Graf had not yet decided whether or not he would send representatives to the Kansas Relays at Lawrence on April 23. He had definitely settled, however, to take men to the Drake Relay carnival in Des Moines on April 27, 28, 29 and 30. On May 7 the Bluejay trackmen will be host to a squad from Kansas State, strong contenders for hon- ors in the Big Six. The team from Manhattan is doped to defeat the Jays by a wide margin with EhrUch, great high jumper, the star of the K- Aggie team. Grinnell College comes to Omaha for a dual meet with the Jays on May 14. The Pioneers will be led by Thomas, brilliant quarter-miler, and Phil- brow, veteran two mile performer. Member schools of the Missouri Valley Conference will gather in the Creighton stadium on May 20 and 21 for the annual conference meet. Such stars as Blancic, Drake shot putter; Glass, brilliant Oklahoma Aggie sprint- er, and others, will compete in the meet besides Grinnell ' s stars, already men- tioned. These men will attack a set of records established by nationally known stars of former years. These marks are of a high caliber as evidenced by the hurdles marks of Bob Simpson of Iowa State set in 1912. The Cyclone flyer holds the 120-yard high hurdles record with a mark of : 14.6 seconds and the 220-yard low hurdles mark at :23.4 seconds. Roland Locke ' s record of :30.7 seconds for the 220-yard dash is another example of the high class marks which this year ' s stars must attack. Olson, Pruss, Kostoryz, Kockrow, Lanyon, LoUich, Kirchner Anderson, Dimig, L. R. Graf, Kubat, Nielsen, Murphy, Raschke The 1931-32 Season ' HE Creighton swimming season opened with the freshman-varsity dual meet in December. The varsity won 46 to 38 but the freshmen broke four University records. Freeland broke the 50-yard and 100-yard free style marks and Blackburn the 200-yard backstroke and 220-yard free style records. Coach Wendell took six varsity and four freshmen to the pre-Olympic try- outs at Iowa City, January 15 and 16. Freeland set a new middle western A. A. U. record in the 50-yard free style over a straightaway course and placed in the 100-yard free style. Creighton took William N. Bergin third in the 400-yard relay and the 300- yard medley relay. Iowa State downed the Bluejays ,53 to 21, and Grinnell bested them 48 to 36. Creighton tallied ten points to finish fourth in the Missouri Valley Conference meet. m m-m ' ? ut WciiK The 1931-32 Season T ' ' HE first active University rifle team in several years was sponsor- ed this year by the mihtary department. The squad fired telegraphic matches against a large number of the leading schools of the country. The large schedule opened against Culver Military Academy. The first match resulted in a defeat. However, Georgetown and Connecticut Universi- ties bowed before the squad a short time later. Kansas State, Iowa State, Georgia State, Louisiana State, Clinton, Michi- gan, Florida, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Oregon, Depauw and Akron Universi- ties also were defeated by the Bluejays. In addition, the team fired in the Hearst Trophy Seventh Corps Area matches. The National Intercollegiate Matches were fired at the same time. Hugh M. Schwaab Captain JU ., Dee, Higgins, Swanson, Dunphy, Markel, Captain Fraser Shea, Walker, Ericson, Schwaab, Earl, Melcher, Jackson - The 1931 - 32 Season nn HE depression which has so stigmatized American business during the - past year made its deepest inroads at Creighton in the field of intra- mural athletics in which, though the Athletic Department was anxious to promote several tournaments so that all students in the University would gain an opportunity to participate in some form of athletics, there was little interest among the students, and the tournaments, begun in the early part of the winter, have not yet been completed, with but a single exception. The only intramural champions crowned to date are Morris Franklin and Ben Rosen who succeeded in retaining their crown in the handball doubles tournament. Franklin and Rosen, who have competed together for several seasons in tournaments in Omaha clubs and at Creighton, encountered little difficulty in advancing to the semi-final round in which they met Merle McDermott and Jerry Mahoney, disposing of them only after a hard fought struggle by scores of 18-21, 21-9 and 21-10. Again in the final match the champions did not hit their stride until the first match was well started, and Harry Rich and Morris Blacker, represent- U« ing the Medical School, extended them to the limit before succumbing in the first game by a score of 21-18. Just as in the semi-finals, however, the champions came on fast in the second game and won the game, the match, and the title by a decisive 21-10 score. The singles handball tournament has not yet been completed, but the elimination has finally simmered down to several outstanding candidates for the crown. Of these Harry Rich, high ranking star in Omaha tournaments, seems the most likely to crash through to the title, and his most serious competition is likely to come from Merle McDermott, Abe Faier, Ricklin, Rosner and Condon. What was billed as the red-letter event of the intramural year, the basket- ball tournaments in which fraternities and class teams competed, did not gain the attention this year that it has in the past. Outstanding among all of the twenty-six teams that participated in the two basketball tourneys was the Delta Kappa Delta fraternity league team. Although no playoff for the title has been arranged as the Blue-Jay goes to press, the DKD five is considered a cinch f or the crown should a championship game be arranged. They are the defending inter-fraternity champions, and in the only game during the entire year in which they were seriously threatened they repulsed the Delta Sigma Pi five by a score of 8 to 7. Class basketball games were not played off as scheduled, and as a result no really outstanding teams emerged from the tourneys. Another new sport made its debut in the Creighton intramural program during the fall and winter. While not exactly an intramural activity, it nevertheless attracted wide interest among the students. This sport was box- ing. Creighton freshmen football players entered several A. A. U. tourna- ments and met with singular success. Creighton boxers won no less than seven amateur championships during the course of the year. Dick Tomlin- son and Pete Marchetti were the outstanding Creighton boxers. Tom Nokes, a teamm ate on the freshman squad also ranked high, as did Glen Keholm, Creighton varsity gridder. Other intramural tournaments are planned for the spring season. Tennis and golf head the program. Fred Melchiors won the title two years ago but was nosed out last year by Bill Manasil, who graduated last spring. Jimmy Gleason, Nate Cutler, Louis Gruenther, Leo Cassidy and Kyran Hynes, a newcomer, are favorites in the tennis tourney. e.h:tWan4 THE U CLUB V. Gruenther, M. Fitzgerald, M. Fogarty, D Neble H.

It sponsors affairs of a social as well as an athletic character. The D Club, a branch organ- ization of the Athletic Associa- tion, is composed of those stu- dents who merit an award for in- dividual excellence or consistant participation in athletic activities. It is not in itself an athletic or- ganization. Letters are formally awarded in May at the annual spring banquet of the Association. The student body is divided into seven teams of fifteen mem- bers each, which together form a Duchesne College r UCHESNE COLLEGE, - — through its Physical Edu- cation Department, aims to de- velop not only proficiency in ath- letic games and contests, but also to build rational and wholesome sentiments, habits and traditions among the students. In order to achieve these aims, to promote health consciousness and to further ideals of sports- manship and school spirit, the Athletic Association was organ- ized in 1928. Its membership now so-called League of Nations. These teams take an active part in the games of volleyball, basket- ball, tennis, golf and hiking as the season for each comes around. The Physical Education De- partment stresses participation rather than skill, mass activity rather than individual achieve- ment. Under this policy a larger percentage of the students have taken part in athletics than ever before. Those who are not skilled in the highly organized games have found less strenuous games that they can play with pleasure and profit. However, the tech- VOLLEYBALL TEAM L. Riorden, P. McCarthy, B.

The annual program of the Physical Education Department culminates in the presentation of the Sports Review which is pre- sented early in May. It is then that the attainments of the year are displayed. Novel representa- tions of the various physical activi- ties are given. The officers of the Athletic Association this year were: Presi- dent, Edith McShane; Vice-Presi- dent, Mary Fogarty; Secretary and Treasurer, Marie Fitzgerald; Director, Joyce Kent.

The Department has a special prepar- ed curriculum leading to the de- gree of Bachelor of Science in Ed- ucation. The Co-Ath Club, the athletic association of the College, was or- ganized in 1929. It aims to foster a spirit of true sportsmanship among the students participating in athletics, which are now of an intramural nature. Field hockey, bowling, basketball, volleyball, baseball, track and tennis were the most popular sports among the College of Saint Mary THIS year the College of Saint Mary has expanded its Physi- cal Education Department in rec- ognition of the ever increasing need for teachers and leaders to assist in city and school play- grounds, to manage physical edu- cation programs particularly in grade and high schools and to co- operate intelligently with supervis- ors in schools.

Miss Marjorie Van Ac- keren, ' 31, was physical education director and coach of all sports. In athletic activities field hockey again proved to be the most popu- lar sport. During the entire sea- son two games were played each week at the field in the Western League Ball Park. The inter-class tournament was won by the sopho- more class and again for the sec- ond consecutive year the school title was given to them. Bowling again proved very pop- ular with a great number of the students participating. BASKETBALL K. Kowski, M. Josten, G. Savidge, E. Moriarty M. Van Ackeren, M. Kavanaugh, G. Mitchell, D.

The teams played several inter-class games. Baseball, track and tennis were enthusiastically enjoyed in their respective seasons. The all-popu- lar ping pong was a favorite of all who learned this indoor sport. Plans are bing made to intro- duce archery as a leading sport during the next school year. Saint Joseph s Hospital SINCE the organization of the first basketball team of Saint Joseph ' s Nurses Training School in 1929, the Saint Joseph team has proven itself to be one of the outstan ding women ' s teams in the city. Basketball took the foreground from the first and has steadily developed as the leading sport of the School. As representatives of their School, the teams have always made a name for themselves in basketball circles. The team finished a successful season this year after playing a long schedule. They were not entered in the Women ' s City League this year but played many of the teams that were entered. They also played a number of teams who also were not entered in the league. In addition to furnishing an exhibition of fine team work, the season also produced some outstanding individual players. The most outstanding, per- haps, was Marguerite Simanek, captain. She was ably assisted by such stellar players as Wilma Kotab, Mary McGill, Adrian Lyons and Bessie Dryak. As captain of the team Miss Simanek was a most important factor in its success because of her able direction. The members of the team were Marguerite Simanek, captain, Wilma Kotab, Bessie Dryak, Adrian Lyons, Agnes Gilmore, Mary McGill, Gladys Artz and Loretta Leppert. ._ B. Dryak, A. Lyons, W. Kotab, M. Simanek, G. Artz, L. Leppert, A. Gilmore, M. McGill Saint Catherine ' s Hospital WINNING second place in the Women ' s City Basketball League, the Saint Catherine ' s Training School basketball team completed a most successful season. The team had a long schedule this year. In addition to the league games, they met many teams that were not entered in the league. Although other athletics are not slighted, basketball is the major athletic activity at Saint Catherine ' s and is, therefore, given a great deal of attention. The teams have proven themselves of exceptional talent and ability in the past few years and they have always won an important place in the city ' s women basketball circles. A number of individual stars were developed during the season, the most outsanding of whom were Olga Pucelik, Agnes Brady and Sophie Hambek. They were ably assisted by the other members of the team. Much of the success of the season was due to the direction of Miss Ham- bek, the captain, and the coaching work of Dr. Joseph Comine. The members of the team were Sophie Hambek, captain, Margaret Phelps, Olga Pucelik, Mary Murphy, Agnes Brady, Elizabeth Thompson, Mary Krautkremer, Mary Kennedy and Lucille Gallagher. M. Phelps, L.

Teams have been formed in basketball, swimming and rifle marksmanship. No games were played with outside groups by either the basketball or swimming groups, but practice games between different teams in the group was kept up throughout the year. The women ' s rifle squad is the best organized of the groups. During the season the team practiced under the direction of Captain J. J. Fraser, U. S. Army, and took part in a number of matches with men ' s intramural teams in the University and with teams from other colleges. The group was very successful, winning all but two of its matches. The entire athletic program is under the direction of Miss Lucille Kendall, dean of women. The rifle squad is made up of Marcella Lindberg, captain, Lillian Koom, Monica O ' Keefe, Loretto Brosnahan, Virginia Mancuso and Rose Cangelosi. The girls making up the basketball and swimming teams were Olga Dyba, Viola Zikmund, Monica O ' Keefe, Anna Marie Peeper, Lena Pratt, Eunice Kildare, Bess Alexander, Rose Cangelosi, Lillian Koom, Virginia Mancuso, Josephine Sesto, Marjorie Hermansky, Helen McFarland and Kathryn Downing.

Kendall Book IV ACTIVITIES i cA ance on the eck of a iverboat dramatics PROGRESS in dramatics at Creighton dates from the spring of 1922, when the Rev. William J. Grace, S. J., dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and later president of the University, and Charles Costello organized the Mask and Wig Club. At first this was an exclusive group of only ten members. It was thought that it would be easier to handle a small compact organization than a large, unwieldy one, and so the work proceeded along this plan. During Holy Week in the second year of the club ' s existence the Passion Play was presented at the Brandeis Theatre. The cast was made up of club members, alumni and a few outsiders. The small organization was forsaken in 1927, however, when the Rev. Louis F. Doyle, S. J., was named director. A new organization known as the Creighton Dramatic Club was formed and all those interested in dra- matics were allowed to participate in the work. Rev. J. A. Herbers, S. J. ' ' Director THE CREIGHTON PLAYERS Kellogg, Grant, T. Golfer, Walsh, Schmidt, W. Golfer, Bolus, Barron Davis, A. Langley, M. Martin, Kanouff, B. Martin, Murdock, M. Josten, M. Lindberg In 1928 the club assumed the name The Creighton Players. The players won first prize in the Northwestern University Thea- tre tournament in April, presenting A Night at an Inn, the one-act fantasy by Lord Dunsay. The play was so well liked that it was presented at the local Orpheum Theatre for one week following the tour- nament. Father Doyle directed the play. Miss Anita Mae Marsh was the director during the 1928 and 1929 seasons. She pro- duced many successful plays. In 1930 the Rev. J. A. Herbers, S. J., dean of men, became director of dra- matics. Father Herbers, during that year, directed and produced a number of popular plays. The players opened the 1931-32 season with two one-act plays and a one-act operetta, which were presented in December. The plays were Paradise, a comedy by Sally Shute, and Confessional, by Percival Wilde. Cox and Box, the operetta, was based on a play of the same name by Arthur Sullivan. During the Christmas holidays Father Herbers was sent to Regis College Bernard A. Martin ' ' resident Creighton Players f y i fV ! 11 i THE CAST OF PARADISE Tcrnus, Leary, R. Brennan, Colfer as president of that institution. Milton Rieck, who has been prominent in Omaha dramatics for several years, was named director to succeed Father Herbers. Early in March Mr. Rieck began work on his first production, The Bluejay Revue, which was presented April 13 and 14 in the new Central High School Auditorium. The Revue consisted of two acts in nineteen scenes. Miss Adelaide Fogg aided Mr. Rieck in the direction of the dance numbers. Every Friday night at 10 o ' clock the players present a one-act play over radio station WOW. Lawrence Welch, LLB ' 31, directs these skits, which have proved to be very popular. THE CAST OF COX AND BOX ' Martin, Barrotij Walsh - • ehalfcnf ' V i The University of the oAir To give some of the cultural and edu- cational advantages to people of the Middle West who are unable to attend schools of higher learning, has been the aim of the Creighton University of the Air since its inception October 22, 1931. A fifteen minute program is broadcast daily with the exception of Sunday, from the remote control studio located on the fifth floor of the Administration building. Broadcasts are at 4:45 p. m. daily with an extra period at 9:45 p. m. on Saturday. Each daily program consists of a lecture by a faculty member. A series of these lectures is usually given, each consisting of from three to seven talks on corresponding days of the week. Programs are sponsored by the Creigh- ton Alumni Association under the direction of the Rev. Leo H. Mullany, S. J., and Frank E. Pellegrin, assistant director. The studio is one of the most modernly equipped in the Middle West. It is affiliated with radio station KOIL, which operates on a federally author- ized frequency of 1260 kilocycles or 238 meters. Rev. Leo H. Mullany T irector wlmf - ft ' ' ; spiritual Life WITH the appointment of the Rev. Charles McDonnell, S. J., as stu- dent spiritu al counsellor the University, for the first time, placed all of the student spiritual activities under one supervisor. Father McDonnell was given an office in each of the six colleges of the University in order that he might interview all of the students. One of the large rooms on the first floor of the Dental building was remodeled into a new chapel and special Masses for the students were said there each Sunday. Chapel exercises were held twice a month in St. John ' s Church for the students of the Arts and Commerce Colleges at the time of the regular Re- ligion classes. The annual retreat was held from Thursday, January 28, to Sunday, January 31, in St. John ' s Church. Rev. Charles McDonnell, S. J. Spiritual Counsellor The lue-Jay I j H -L- the Diamond Jubilee of the City of Omaha as well as to record the activities of Creighton, the 1932 Blue-Jay presents not only a picture of the events of the school year just completed, but also weaves into its pages an historical element, which chronicles the city ' s seventy-five years of growth from a few scattered houses to a modem metropolis. During the months of work on the edi- tion, the staff kept one ideal in mind, namely, the presentation of an accurate picture of the past year at Creigh- ton and a true record of the growth of Omaha. Production began early last summer. The theme was selected, the sec- tions planned and laid out, finally being assembled into a skeleton of the completed book. From that time until the final dead-line the staff made every effort to present a book that would come up to the standards set by previous editions and at the same time compare favorably with the publica- tions of other institutions.

McCarthy The editors and staff were required to do a considerable amount of research work for the historical data. Efforts were made at all times to incorporate into the pages of the book as much as possible of the early history of Omaha. Due to the fact that photography was premature in those days, pictures were limited. However, an en- deavor was made to give as complete a pic- ture as possible in the art work of the open- ing section and other pages of the book. The Staff: Editor, Edwin E.

Leo J. Reynolds ' Business Manager Raymond F. Finnegan Editor First Semester The Creightonian THE Creightonian, official weekly news- paper of the University, now in its tenth year of publication, made notable progress during the past year. For the third consecutive time it received major honors at the North Central Press Associa tion convention. The paper received awards for being the best all around paper in the conference and for having the best editorials. Other achievements included the publication of several six-page papers, the sponsoring of various student polls and the instigation of several minor sport tournaments. Besides maintaining its membership in the North Central Press Associa- tion, The Creightonian also became a member of the Intercollegiate Press Association, the National Scholastic Press Association, and the Catholic School Press Association this year. The continued use of a universal copy desk in the office of the paper and the inauguration of various efficiency contests for members of the staff, gave Sullivan, Gaines, C.

Shadows SHADOWS, student literary publica- tion, is published six times during the scholastic year. In it are featured short stories, articles, poetry and art work pro- duced by students of the University. With the exception of a few articles contributed by the faculty and almuni, the selection of material is limited to the literary work of the student body. An attempt is made to encourage new students to contribute to the magazine by accepting short stories, poetry, articles and book reviews that they have prepared for English classes. Any student who is interested in art work is given a chance to present his work. During the past year the editors placed stress on more and better illustra- tions, encouraging student art work, and concentrated on the production of better cover designs. The make-up has been kept new and varied and the art staff has been spurred on to achieve new effects. Material published in the magazine this year won high praise for its ex- cellence. Many of the short stories were of professional caliber, as also was Thomas F. Reynolds Editor First Semester ■• ::| 174 1:: much of the poetry. The art work appear- ing in the magazine also received favorable comment from critics. The magazine is financed through the Creighton Students Union The First Semester Staff: Editor, Thomas F.

Timlin Editor Second Semester 1 The Duchesne Monthly THE Duchesne Monthly, published by the students of Duchesne College, is a literary magazine issued each month of the scholastic year, as its name implies. The aim of the staff and student body is to reveal, in the publication, the princi- ples for which the institution stands. It has a three-fold purpose, namely, to en- courage the students in the production of literary work, to train prospective teachers in the management of a school paper, and to keep alumnae informed of the current activities of the College. The magazine has been in existence since 1925. It was first published under the name Pukwana but in September, 1928, the name was changed to The Duchesne Monthly. The magazine features news of the College, short stories, essays, book re- views, poetry and an alumnae section. This year the February issue was written exclusively by the Freshmen, the March issue by the Sophomores, the April issue by the Juniors and the June issue by the Seniors. All issues, how- ever, were edited by the regular staff. Mary Ellen Leary Editor M. O ' KeefFe, T. Higgins, M. Goodrich, J. Iwersen, E. Sedlar, P. Dixon M. Hague, M. Ready, M. Leary, M. Burke, A.

Since 1931, however, it has been converted into a bi-monthly col- lege publication. The magazine is made up of feature arti- cles, short stories, book reviews and inter- views. This year a poetry section was added. Contributions are, for the most part, from the students themselves, with an occasional article from an alumnae member. The general management and advertising is taken care of by the business staff having at its head Tina Petello. Other members are Frances Roza, Genevieve Sirois and Faye Janecek, The Editorial Staff: Marian Pollack, editor; Marianne Josten, poetry editor; Mary Martin, sophomore editor; and Ann Langley, freshman editor. V ' (! ' r t - d The Creighton oAlumnus As the official publication of the Creighton University Alumni Asso- ciation, The Creighton oAlumnus is the connecting Hnk between the University and its alumni. It is a monthly magazine dis- tributed through the Alumni office to all paid-up members of the Association. Since its beginning five years ago, it has expanded both in circulation and size. It is now a twelve-page magazine and is cir- culated in almost every state in the Union, the Hawaiian and Philippine Islands and in thirteen foreign countries. Articles by alumni and faculty members, news of alumni and the faculty and of the athletic activities of the University are regular features. The cover is printed in the University colors, blue and white, and carries a photograph depicting an outstanding news event connected with the Uni- versity or alumni. Engravings are used profusely to illustrate the magazine. Outstanding among the activities of The Creighton oAliimnus this year was its assistance in the organization of Creighton Alumni Clubs throughout the country. In addition the magazine helped to promote the annual home- coming, drives for scholarship and the Agnew Student Loan Fund. Frank E. Pellegrin Editor 178 The oAdrertising bureau THE University Advertising Bureau, made up of three students appointed by the Students Union Board of Gover- nors for a term of one year serving under the direction of the Union Manager, was instituted in the fall of 1931. The Bureau solicits the advertising for all of the stu- dent publications: The Creightonian, the Blue-Jay, Shadows, the Student Directory, and the Student Handbook. The idea of a central advertising bu- reau is an innovation at Creighton and has proven highly successful since its inception. Each member of the Bureau is assigned a certain number of local business concerns from which he may solicit advertising material, and no other member of the Bureau may en- croach upon his territory. All advertisements are turned into the Union Manager. National advertising is handled directly by the Manager. The centralization of the handling of advertising material does away with the solicitation of a certain kind of advertising by each man as under the in- dividual manager system. Edward D. Murphy Manager •• ' i c ' ifl-il. ' f-c ' V ' ' ' •-t§= University ROTC and Daniel Slezinger ' Director UNDER the able direction of Daniel Slezinger, a Band was organized at Creighton this year that was a real credit to the University. Throughout the year it was one of the most active groups on the campus. Its appearance at all Univer- sity functions and city celebrations and its regular radio programs made it one of the best known musical organizations in Omaha and the surrounding territory. Although the Band is primarily a mili- tary organization its activity extends beyond the work of providing music for drills and parades of the ROTC unit. Its appearance at the University programs and at various city func- tions has made it an All-University Band in scope. This year the Band played at all of the home football games, furnishing not only music of an excellent nature, but executed various intricate drills and formations between the halves at all of the contests. Its appearance at rallies, assemblies, convocations, parades and special University celebrations, both on and off the campus, did much to kindle enthusiasm and school spirit. 182 The University Orchestra AFTER being dormant for three years, - the Creighton University Orchestra was reorganized this year largely through the efforts of the Rev. J. A. Herbers, S. J., and Harold Pace and Henry Mendelson, who were later appointed director and man- ager, respectively. When it was assured that a sufficient number of students were interested, try- outs were held and within a short time they were assembled into a well-balanced organi- zation. It was seen, however, that there was need for further work in musical training and a separate class in harmony and orchestral conduction was started as an extra-curricular activity with Pace as instructor. The Orchestra has a large library of light classical and operatic works and popular music, which was largely furnished through the co-operation of the Rev. W. J. Corboy, S. J., dean of men. The organization has made appearances at plays, lectures, convocations, the benefit style revue and the 1932 Bluejay Revue. Harold E. Pace director 1 THE UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRA c- M The 1932 luejay %eyue Milton Rieck ' ■Director A SWIFT moving, well rounded bill made up the eighteen scenes of the two acts of the 1932 Blue jay Revue present- ed April 13 and 14 at Central High School auditorium. The show was directed and staged by Milton Rieclc, newly appointed dramatic director of the University. Themes of production ranged from bur- lesque introduced by fantastic dances of a chorus of athletes in street cleaner and bal- let costumes to strinlcingly-costumed dance acts and comedy skits. Over 150 students from all of the colleges and affiliated schools of th e University took part in the extravaganza. Brilliant costuming against artistic backgrounds featured many of the scenes. Costumes in Singing in the Rain, Crinoline Days, Louisa, Soldier and the China Doll and Limehouse numbers were unique. The comedy skits, ' If Men Played Bridge as Women Do, Second Thoughts and Off the Lines produced many laughs. Domestic Opera Comique, the harmonious efforts of the Amalgamated Boilermakers ' and Hod Carriers ' Glee Club, and Freddie the Freshman were also well re- ceived by the audience. Amateur Night, a burlesque, was featured by the remarks of Roger McGargill, the gallery king, who drove the aspiring amateurs to the wings with his comments of their merits. The Circus, featuring clowns, bareback riders, a ballet, balloon man, two acrobatic roller-skaters and a ringmaster was a good imitation of a bona- fide big top show. Lazar Kaplan did some lively stepping in a tap dance entitled Danse Rythimque. Cuban Nights featured the Campus Club Orchestra, the Adelaide Fogg Dancers and King and Queen Creighton X and the princes and princesses of the 1932 Prom. Tell Me Pretty Maiden displayed the Floradora beauties and their beau brummels in a song and dance. Dancing in the Dark ending with The White and the Blue brought down the curtain for the end of the production. Music for the show was furnished by the Creighton Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Harold Pace. ' Freddie the Freshman. A scene from Louisa. White Wings. A scene from Limehouse.

Clayton, Catania, Martin -Hr The 1931-32 Season COMPRISING a season of twenty- two debates and one intercollegiate tournament, the debate squad finished the most extensive season in its history this year. The main debate trip was to the East on February 15 to 19. There were five de- bates on this trip. Gleason and Fitzgerald made up the team. St. Joseph ' s College, Philadelphia; New York University, Yonkers, N. Y.; Colum- bia University, College of the City of New York, and Fordham University, New York City, were met on the trip. On the return trip, Gleason and Fitzgerald stopped at St. Paul, Minnesota, to take part in the intercollegiate debate tournament. Marks and Johnson made up the other team representing Creighton at the tournament. Another important debate of the year was one held with a team represent- ing Istanbul, Turkey, held in the Creighton auditorium on October 29. For the first time in the history of the school, a girl ' s team was formed to represent Creighton in intercollegiate debating. The team composed of Rev. O. p. Sullivan, S. J. Coach 188 1:: Frances Datesman and Ida Hoffman met girl ' s teams from Nebraska Wesleyan and Missouri State Teacher ' s College in two debates. The Rev. O. P. Sullivan, S. J., professor of classics and director of debate, was in general charge of activities for the year. He conducted one of the most ambitious forensic programs ever scheduled at Creigh- ton. In addition to the regular program and the new girl ' s team the intramural de- bate tournament was carried on as in for- mer years. A freshman team made up of Smith, Roach, Neenan and Rebuclc, took part in two debates. Smith and Roach met the freshmen of Cotner College on March 18 and Neenan and Rebuck debated the same school on March 22. James Fitzgerald was captain and played a large part in directing the team through a successful season. James Brown was manager and looked after the many details connected with conducting the squad. The members of the varsity squad were: James Fitzgerald, captain, James Gleason, Ephraim Marks, Stanfield Johnson, George Springborg, John Stein- James M.

Sweeney fSMajor Iitfanlry organization of the unit in January, 1919, the Creighton Reserved Officers Training Corps has made a continual ad- vancement. The Corps was established to train students during time of peace to lead men and to furnish reserve military strength should the need arise during the times of national conflict. The Creighton Corps is made up of four companies under the direction of a cadet lieutenant-colonel and a cadet major. The officers of the unit are selected from among the second year advanced stu- dents and the sergeants are chosen from the first year advanced students. The rank and file of the corps is composed of basic students, the corporals being selected from the second year basic class. The battalion, companies, platoons and squads are thus under the direc- tion of student leaders who learn the qualities of an officer by commanding their units. The work of the student officers and non-commissioned officers is, however, supervised and supplemented by the instruction staff of the mili- taty department. An instructor serves as tactical officer for each of the companies. In addition to the mihtary drill periods under the cadet officers, the students are taught the theory of drill under the faculty instructors. The military faculty is com- posed of Major Hardin C. Sweeney, U. S. Infantry, commander and professor of military science and tactics; Captain Fred- eric Von M. Dyer, U. S. Infantry, assist- ant professor of military science and tac- tics, and Captain J. J. Fraser, U. S. Infantry, assistant professor of military science and tactics. The purpose of the course is two-fold. First, to train men for commissions in the officers ' reserves, and second, to furnish some of the rudiments of mili- tary training for use in time of danger to the United States. The commission in the reserve corps is awarded after the students have finished four years of training including one year at summer camp. At the end of the two-year basic course, a certificate is awarded to the student, who may then continue with the advanced course if he so desires. The corps also sponsors the University rifle team and keeps up the rifle Frederic V. M. Dyer Captain Infantry range. In addition, the coed rifle team is backed by the mihtary department. The individual companies of the battalion are represented by company rifle teams which compete with each other for the corps title. A number of individual awards are given to students and other awards are made to the units proving themselves most efficient. The best cadet officer, the best military cadet and the best first year basic cadet are chosen each year and are given medals for their proficiency in military drill and tactics. The best rifleman in the battalion is also given an award as is the man who writes the best essay on the National Defense Act. The Military faculty also gives a prize to the outstanding coed rifle markswoman. The Omaha Chamber of Commerce flag is given annually to the company deemed the most outstanding in all branches of drill. Ribbons are also awarded at the annual field day for the company, platoons and squads win- ning in the various military competitions of the day. Instruction is given in various subjects, including first aid, rifle marks- J. J. Fraser Captain Infantry manship, musketry, scouting, patrolling, military law, automatic rifle, machine gun, military history, military engineering, map making, trench mortar and howitzer and in general military attack. The instruc- tion culminates in the late spring when the officer in charge of ROTC work in the Seventh Corps area conducts a complete inspection of the parades and drill events in which the cadets participate. The standing of the unit with respect to the other training units in the Seventh Corps area is determined by the results of the inspection. The inspecting officer tests the cadets in each of the four classes in the various courses in which they have been instructed during the year. He also inspects the work of the units in the annual field day events. The corps is rated poor, good or superior as a result of these tests. In order to qualify for their commission the members of the advanced classes must attend a six weeks ROTC camp at Fort Crook, Nebraska, each summer. Cadets from ROTC units at the Universities of Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota and Creighton assemble at the camp for practical experience James J. Gleason Cadet Colonel COMPANY B M% ' l: -- - ' .. 195]:: ' .J i tm m. in military drill and tactics. The battalion at camp is also commanded by student officers under the supervision of a staff of army officers. At the camp the cadets and the companies and other units figure in com- petition in military subjects, rifle marksmanship and athletics. There is also competition between the representatives of each university in these subjects. Creighton students have always taken leading parts both in military and in athletics. The cadets also fire on the army range at Plattsmouth and representatives are sent from the camp to the national rifle and pistol matches at Camp Perry each year. 196 h The Junior -Senior ront WELCOMED by all loyal sub- jects, King Creighton X and his Queen were formally crowned at the Junior- Senior Prom, Creighton ' s out- standing social event of the year, on the night of April 1, in the Granada Ball- room of the Knights of Columbus Club. The King and Queen were chosen from among the twelve princes and princesses who represented every de- partment of the University. Leonard H. Powers, Pharmacy senior, was se- lected King Creighton X and Mary Fcchtman, Medic senior, his Queen. The ceremonies began at 10:30 when Lord High Chancellor George M. Mc- Cabe, Commerce senior, issued the edict to the reigning governors. Immediately afterwards the princes entered and placed themselves on either side of the throne. This was followed by the singling out and crowning of Powers as King. The princesses of the court Leonard H. Powers King Creighton X B .

Lane Mi _ then entered and took their places be- side the princes. Next came the Queen, Miss Fochtman, who took her seat next to the King amid the plaudits of the crowd of loyal subjects. Princes of the royal court were Sam- uel M. 0 ' Cc nnor, Horace A. Wald, Walter P. Stiegelmar, Leonard H. Pow- ers, Maurice E. Van Ackeren, Clar- ence J. Wittier, Raymond F. Finnegan, Charles L. Newstrom, Philip J. Kirwan, Lawrence J. Tierney, James J. Logan and Glenn B. Widner. Princesses were Irene Sramek, Mary Fochtman, Marguerite Bell, Marguerite Simanek, Helen Proulx, Elizabeth Lane, Ann Faherty, Angela Cunningham, Ava Clare Donahue, Edith McShane, Anne Keating, Ida Barth, Frances Dimig and Clara Nadolney. The 1932 Prom, from every angle, was an outstanding affair in Creigh- ton social history. It was featured by the music of Milt Taggart and his nationally famous Eleven Vagabonds of the Air and the addition of a Mary Fochtman Queen i .V Powers, Stiegelmar, Kirwan, Widner, Wald, O ' Connor H. Proulx, C. Nadolney, A. Cunningham, E. McShane, M. Simanek, M. Bell, I. Barth Asw ; i.., J i tl 4l_ :: 199 :: I number of new ceremonies to the coronation. Dancing began at 10 o ' clock and continued until 2 a. m. interrupted only by the coronation and ballet ceremonies. The Royal Court and the attendants wore costumes of a new and unique design. Members of the ROTC Advanced Corps acted as a royal guard during the ceremony under the direction of Cadet Lieutenant-Colonel James Gleason and Philip Bums. Miss Fausteen Potts, Omaha dancing instructor, directed the children who acted as pages, trumpeters, train bearers and flower girls in the corona- tion ceremonies and also those who took part in the ballet number imme- diately preceding the coronation. The princes and princesses are chosen by the Students Union Board of Governors to represent the departments at the Royal Court. The choice is based on the selection made by the individual members of the Board, each of whom submit two names. The King and Queen are selected each year from among the princes and princesses at a special meeting of the Board of Governors a few days be- fore the Prom. The identity of the new rulers, however, is kept secret until the coronation ceremonies at the aff-air. Approximately six hundred students, alumni and patrons attended the affair. The an-Hellenic T)ance OPENING the All-University formal season this year, the annual Pan-Hellenic Dance was held at the Chermot Ballroom January 15. All of the eighteen member fraternities of the Pan-Hellenic Council were well represented at this annual formal gathering of the University Greek Letter men. The feature of the dance was the presentation of the gold keys, emblem- atic of membership in the Pan-Hellenic Council, to the representatives of the fraternities on the Council by the Rev. William J. Ccrboy, S. J., dean of men and faculty moderator of fraternities. Those receiving keys were James M. McNally, Ephraim L. Marks, Charles H. Miller, Charles L. Chamberlain, Hyman Alexander, William T. Monahan, Raymond C. Scan- nell, Carle W. Lyons, Marc F. LaVelle, Vincent W. Dimig, Albert Fox, Henry A. Glassmaker, Philip J. Bums, Robert J. Swanson, J. Joseph Claus, Charles A. Rutherford, John F. Brockhaus and Leo J. Reynolds. James M. McNally, president of the Pan-Hellenic Council, presented an honorary key to Father Corboy. Guests were limited to fraternity men and pledges. Paul Davis ' Orchestra of Chi cago furnished the music for dancing. The committee in charge of arrangements consisted of Philip J. Burns, William T. Monahan and Charles A. Rutherford. FATHER CORBOY PRESENTS THE PAN-HELLENIC KEYS The Military all A MID a flourish of drums and a trumpet fanfare Miss Margaret Cosgrave was presented as the fifth hon- orary colonel of the Creighton ROTC battalion on the stage of the Granada Ballroom of the Knights of Columbus Club to more than four hundred couples at the 1932 Military Ball on February 2. Following the presentation ceremonies the cadet officers formed an arch of sabers, beneath which, to the strains of ' The White and the Blue, Miss Cos- grave was escorted by Cadet Lieutenant Colonel James J. Gleason, followed by the retiring honorary colonel, Miss Alice Foye, and her escort. At the conclusion of the march, with the two lines facing her, Miss Cosgrave was presented with a bouquet and received the salute of the cadets to symbolize assumption of her new position. The Ball is spon- sored each year by Chi Delta Chi, local advanced Military fraternity.

The group is made up of students from all departments of the University. The emblem of the Knights is the white jersey with the Creighton Blue- jay. The junior division men, those new in the group, wear a nine-inch Blue- jay on their sweaters. The division, made up of second year and older men, is identified by the senior emblem, a small Bluejay perched on a block C on a purple background. In addition to furnishing noise, cheers and various forms of entertainment at all athletics, the Knights sponsor and help with various other activities on the campus. At the annual Homecoming celebration they served the barbecue, prepared the gym for the dance in the evening and acted as guides at various points on the campus throughout the day. Thirty-four new members were added to the organization this year. The only requirements demanded of the candidates are a strong pair of lungs and unbounded enthusiasm. The worthiness of each candidate is tested by a two week ' s probationary period ending with an informal initiation. The officers for this year were Benedict W. Foley, Arts junior, president; Frank W. Liebert, Arts junior, vice-president, and Soren Munkhof, Com- merce sophomore, secretary-treasurer. THE KNIGHTS FORM A CHEERING SECTION AT THE BASKETBALL GAMES The ress Club THE Creighton Press Club was established in the fall of 1929 and since that time has done commendable work in standardizing the publica- tions of the University and in bringing its members to a truer realization of journalism as it is in the world today. The Club began with fifteen members. This number was increased to twenty in the fall of 1930 a nd has remained practically stationery since. Freshmen are not admitted until they have completed one semester in the University, and also not until they have proved their worth by being active- ly engaged in some journalistic endeavor. During the course of the year the Club takes upon itself the task of ac- quainting its members with the work which they have chosen as their profes- sion. In order to do this effectively, persons prominent in some journalistic activity are selected to speak at meetings of the group. The Club sponsored a contest this year in which it selected the best short stories, poems, news stories, news features, sport stories, sport features and editorials contributed to The Creightonian and Shadows. The work of any Creighton student which was published in either of the publications was eligible for the contest. A testimonial dinner was given early in the fall by the Club honoring the Rev. John Danihey, S. J., the new regent of the College of Commerce and Journalism. Hartwell, Van Ackeren, heavy, Gaines, Wilson, Finnegan Sullivan, Kranda, Munkhof, Prof. J. N. McCabe, Newlon, O ' Connor, Johnson ' - _ ::|245!: The Chamber of Commerce IN 1925 the Commerce Club was first introduced into the College of Com- merce and Journalism as an organization for all students registered in the College. The Club was organized in 1928 into a smaller and more efficient unit and was renamed the Creighton University Chamber of Commerce. This organization was founded to foster the encouragement and reward of scholarship, leadership and accomplishment in business and journalistic activity among the students of the College and to promote student interest in commercial and journalistic problems, and to form an effective working unit for the promotion and execution of such student activities as are con- ductive to the best interests and welfare of the College. Membership in the organization is honorary and is based upon character, scholarship and interest in the College and its activities. The active mem- bership is limited to not more than twenty-four nor less than twenty mem- bers and one faculty member. Four members from each class are selected by the faculty each year with eight others chosen at large. The Chamber sponsored the All-Commerce dinner, held December 15 at the Knights of Columbus Club. The Commerce Bum Day and Last Lap, held May 11, were the group ' s outstanding activities during the second semester. The officers for the past year were Norbert G. Bausch, president; Leo J. Reynolds, vice-president, Edwin E. Van Ackeren, secretary, and Louis L. O ' Donnell, treasurer. The Caducean Society THE Caducean Society, the first cultural club to be organized in the Medical School, was formed last fall by a group of twenty students in order that they might center their attention more fully on research work in medical history and other cultural aspects of medicine. Dr. Charles M. Wilhelmj, professor of physiology, was the guiding stimu- lus in the founding of the Society. The charter members were chosen from the group of students attending the medical seminar, which was conducted weekly by Dr. Wilhelmj. Although the membership is not strictly honor- ary, it is limited to those showing an interest in medical history. Weekly papers, which deal with the history of medicine from its nebulous beginnings in folklore to modem times, are given by members of the organi- zation. The purpose of these studies is to give the members a deeper appre- ciation of their profession and enable them to profit by the trials and work of their predecessors. From time to time outside speakers are invited to address the group. There are only three similar clubs in the country. They are John Hop- kins, Mayo Clinic and the Michigan Medical School. The officers for the past year were A. E. AUegrini, president; Lloyd B. Shone, vice-president; Morris R. Blacker, secretary-treasurer, and John M. Nagle, corresponding secretary. Dr. Wilhelmj was chosen faculty advisor of the Society. The Odontological Society THE Senior Odontological Society was formed in November, 1930, for the purpose of gathering the senior students together for a study of dentistry and its related fields. The group attempts to acquaint the students with the various economical problems confronting those in actual dental practice. The Society is composed of all of the members of the senior class in the College of Dentistry. The organization meets every other Tuesday to dis- cus subjects related to the dental field but not fully developed in the class- room. At every meeting a prominent dentist or physician of Omaha or the middle west speaks on the practical aspects of the classroom theory and on interest- ing subjects from their own experience. Students are thus able to get the viewpoint of men already in the field for which they are training. Illustrations in dentistry and its related fields are given by the means of motion picture films shown before the club. Dr. Frank J. Viner, superintendent of the dental infirmary and professor of prosthetic dentistry, is the faculty sponsor. The officers this year were Leo J. Hughes, president; Leo F. Rogers, vice- president, and Max G. Hesly, secretary-treasurer. t % J ? f f ■ ' t t f Iff! f 1 ' a I) Walker, Trautman, Widner, Stebner, Chamberlain, Copps, Raker, Young, Logan Jaeke, Henderson, Bona, Herrig, Fellman, Glassmaker, Brockhaus, Schreiner, Farr, Slunicko, Sullivan _ _ RoweiJtiawkins,_Hesly Hughes Rogers, Epstein, Mittelstadt, Kestler The Oratorical Society THE Creighton Oratorical Society, organized for the promotion of student interest in debate and oratory, was exceptionally active this year in accomplishing its purpose. The Society holds weekly meetings at which debates are given by various members of the organization on subjects that have possibilities of being used in intercollegiate debates. By this means, men are trained for the varsity debate team and given valuable experience in debating and oratory. The majority of the men on the varsity debate team were selected this year from members of the Oratorical Society thus giving evidence of the valuable work done by this organization. The practice and experience gained by members of the debate team at these weekly meetings of the Oratorical Society was largely responsible for the successful debate season at Creighton. An important work done by the Society each year is the sponsoring of the oratorical contest. This year ' s contest was won by three members of the Society. Arthur Lollich, Arts sophomore, won first place; John Walsh, Law senior, won second, and George Springborg, Arts junior, won third. Officers of the society are James Gleason, president; Stanfield Johnson, vice-president, and William Rosenbladt, secretary. The Rev. O. P. Sullivan, S. J., is moderator of the society. Blumenthal, Hogan, Gleason, Hallgren, Lintzman Liebert, Solomonow, Wolfe, Keogh, Bolus i The C Club THE desire to form a binding nucleus among athletes, and to promote a feeling of fellowship among the wearers of the C was responsible for the organization of the C Club in 1924, by those men who represented Creighton on the gridiron, court and track. In order to become eligible for membership into this honorary athletic or- ganization each man must first win a monogram in a major sport, which now includes swimming. He then is automatically placed on the nomination list to be voted upon by members for admittance. The C Club provides the genuine fun-fest of the year by sponsoring the annual All-University Barn Dance. The dance this year was held in the University gymnasium, April 9, with a decorative scheme suggestive to farm life carried out. It is one of the few dances given by a campus organi- zation that is open to every member of the school. The only requirement is that, in order to attend, the rural costuming idea must be fulfilled. The entire proceeds of this dance are used for the Club ' s special loan fund, which is designed to help athletes of their preference through Creighton. The officers of the Club are Verner P. Jensen, president; Harry Traut- man, vice-president, and Maurice Van Ackeren, secretary-treasurer. The Rev. W. J. Corboy, S. J., and Dr. W. L. Sucha are the faculty representa- tives. The ROTC ' Dental Unit AS a part of the Reserve Officers Training Corps, there is a Dental Corps - V. Unit in the College of Dentistry. It is made up of students who are taking work under a miUtary instructor in addition to their regular class work. On completion of their work with the Unit the graduates receive com- missions as first lieutenants of the Dental Reserve Corps of the United States Army. The course is nearly the same as that required for the medical department of the army. It is chiefly concerned with dental work and with oral infec- tions prevalent in the army but also takes up questions of sanitation and hygiene. In addition, it takes up the study of modern chemical warfare and the treatment of its ill effects. The instruction includes lectures during the school year and in addition requires attendance at summer camp. The Dental Field Day, annual outing for the students and faculty of the College of Dentistry, is sponsored and directed by the Unit. They provide for contests and games between classes and individuals and help to promote a closer relationship between all of the members of the student body by the outing. The Creighton Unit is under the direction of Major Eugene Milbourne, D. C, D. O.

J. Solis, past professor of Spanish, formed the Spanish Club in 1925. It is now one of the largest and most successful language clubs on the campus. The Club has succeeded in drawing into its organization students who have more than an academic interest in the language. Discussions at the semi-monthly business meetings are directed by the moderator in the Span- ish language. Reports and short speeches in Spanish together with histor- ical discussions of Spain and the Spanish people follow the business meeting. The constitution of the Club is written in Spanish and the minutes of all meetings and all other records are kept in that language. Membership in the Club is limited to second and third year students of Spanish. However, first year students, who show special ability or interest in the Spanish language are admitted the second semester. Maurice Howard, instructor in modern languages, was faculty moderator of the group during the past year. The officers during the past year were Ben V. Smith, president; William J. Wooifson, vice-president, and Rose Cangelosi, secretary-treasurer. f « ' Tr V.

Simones, Garry ::|252 THE German Club, organized in 1923 by students studying the German language, is the oldest organization of its kind on the campus. While all students studying the German language are members of the Club, it, unlike other such organizations, allows all students of the Univer- sity who are interested in German to become members. Varied programs dealing with German history and traditions are given at the regular meetings of the group. The major accomplishment of the Club each year is the presentation of German Night. This program is given in one of the German halls of the city and is largely attended by German people. It consists of readings, musical numbers, recitations and a one-act play in German. The Club has always gained notable recognition for these programs and as a result is now affiliated with the group of German organi- zations throughout the city which are united under a central committee. It is represented at the monthly meetings of the central committee by the fac- ulty moderator, the president and one other active member. Officers for the year were Clarence J. Wittier, president; Paul L. Wolpert, vice-president, and Lawrence J. Kean, secretary-treasurer. Prof. Anton Grassel of the language department is faculty moderator of the Club. I ?

Klammer, professor of modern languages, the French Club has become one of the outstanding groups on the campus. It has advanced along both cultural and social lines and is today a mature and active organization. The Club was formed to develop and increase interest in French life, language, customs, traditions and history, and to put to practical use the French learned in the classrooms. With this aim in mind the French lan- guage is spoken exclusively at the meetings. Recitations, lectures, dialogues, songs and plays are also given in the French language. One of the features that makes the Club outstanding on the campus is the sponsoring of a party each semester. This social affair is open to all of the schools connected with the University. A program dealing with some phase of French life is presented at each of the social functions. This year the Club presented a French play at the annual Cosmopolitan Night. The cast was made up of Douglas Johnson, Edward Crossin and Frank Liebert. The officers of the Club for the past year were Bendict W. Foley, presi- dent; Bernice Martin, vice-president, and Frank W. Liebert, secretary-treas- urer. Dr. A. A. Klammer and Prof. E. J. Moreau were the faculty mod- erators of the Club. The Czech Club FORMED for the purpose of bringing together the Czech students of the University and to create a cultural interest in the Czech language and history, the Czech Club, one of the oldest language groups on the campus, has done much since its organization to bring about a better knowledge of the language and the traditions of the country. The Club has doubled its membership since its beginning and increased its activity greatly. Although there are not many students of Czech descent in the University, those that are here and students taking Czech have com- bined to learn the Czech art and culture. The group has done much to better the understanding between the Czech people and the American people. By study of Czech culture they have shown the public something about the country which they did not know. They have done much to establish a more friendly feeling between the two peoples and have done America a service through their contact with Czech people in Omaha. The group was directed this year by Stanley T. Kucera, president; George F. Mikish, vice-president; Edward L. Hulac, secretary, and James F. Sil- hasek, treasurer. Rev. V. E. Herman, instructor in Czech, was faculty mod- erator of the Club. The ' Polish Club THE Polish Club, the newest of the language clubs, was organized by a group of interested Polish students in the fall of 1930 for the purpose of studying Polish literature and culture as it exists today. The Club has progressed greatly since its inception and is now one of the outstanding groups on the campus. Some particular phase of Polish literature, culture or history which is of particular interest to members of the Club is taken up at the meetings. In- dividual members make a study of some aspect of the subject and report at one of the meetings and a general discussion then ensues. The group by the study of Polish culture and by intertwining American ideas with those of foreign origin and by using the resultant idea for further- ance of study are contributing valuable services to Amerian culture and ideals. This is further enhanced by their contact with Omaha Polish Clubs and with their countrymen to whom they pass on their ideas. Although there are relatively few students of Polish descent in the Uni- versity, they have banded themselves together and formed a working organi- zation which is of value to the University as a whole. Edward S. Koziol was president of the Club during the past year. Joseph E. Konon was vice-president and Sylvester E. Pawol was secretary-treasurer. Dr. A. A. Klammer, professor of modern languages, is faculty moderator. Bona, Lassek, Kowalsky Janecek, Kusik, Frodyma, Bednarz, Stanosheck, Stager, Lacoma Shuzinski, Pawol, Prof. A. A. Klammer, Koziol, Konon, Kula The Chemistry Club THE Creighton Chemistry Club was the last of the science clubs to be formed, having its inception in the fall of 1931, This organization supplied a long-desired want, presenting the students with an opportunity of doing research in chemistry and its allied sciences. Meetings are held once a month during which members discuss problems in chemistry. Various students read papers on different phases of the science and make reports on any experimental work that they might be do- ing. However, most of the research work done by members of the group is along the lines of library study. At each of the meetings the Club is addressed by a speaker from outside the University who is engaged in the profession of chemistry. Following the talk by the principal speaker several students give short talks expressing their viewpoint of the same subject. Upon the completion of these talks an open forum is held in which all of the members must take part. Much of the success which the club attained during the past year can be attributed to the Rev. John A. Krance, S. J., Prof. J. J. Smith and Dr, Christopher L. Kenny, faculty moderator of the Club. The officers of the past year were J. Joseph Claus, president; John A. Daum, vice-president, and John M. Dittrick, secretary-treasurer. The Pasteur Club THE Pasteur Club was the first science club organized on the Creighton campus. It was formed in the spring of 1929 by a group of students who were especially interested in biology and who wished to benefit them- selves by meetings and discussions. Meetings are held once a month during which the members discuss prob- lems pertinent to biology and related fields. From time to time scientists and doctors who are noted in this work are asked to address the group. Thus, the members are able to get the views of authorities on phases of the field of biology in which they are interested. The students attempt by the means of these meetings and discussions to acquaint themselves with phases of the science which the classroom cannot fully cover but in which the members are interested. They also learn the more practical side from the views of men who are working with their sub- ject in addition to the theory learned in the classroom. The organization was directed this year by Loyola Kaiser, president; Harry McCarthy, vice-president; John McClellan, secretary-treasurer, and Robert Booher, reporter. Gregor B. Pirsch and John F. Sheehan, of the biology de- partment faculty, served as faculty moderators. gfff f f ' ttt Murphy, Dearmin, Burbridge, Wolpert, Sutka Acton, Ryan, Curtis, Gross, Prof. J. F. Sheehan, Prof. G. B.

Bettinger, head of the mathematics department, has grown from a small group of sixteen charter members to one of the largest organizations on the campus. Its purpose was to benefit both the mathematics department and the student by bringing together all those interested in the science for a dis- cussion and the expression of views on modern mathematical problems. It also endeavors to create in the student a deeper interest and better under- standing of mathematics in general. A general discussion is held at the bi-monthly meetings and papers are read by members of the Club. Prominent civil, electrical and chemical engineers and other professional and business men are asked to address the Club regu- larly and give their views on pertinent topics of the science. Aside from the scholastic benefits which the member receives, the Club has proved to be a connecting link between the theoretical mathematics taught in the classroom and the practical mathematics of the business world. The officers during the past year were Paul E. Schneider, president; Joseph E. Solomonow, vice-president, and Olga Dyba, secretary-treasurer. Prof. Alvin K. Bettinger was the faculty moderator.

The Club was organized in 1930 as a result of a general interest of the students for dramatics. Candidates for admittance must take an active part in dramatics, either by appearence or production work in plays sponsored by the Club. The Club has both regular and provisional members, the status of ad- mittance of these being determined by the chairmen of the committees and the regular members. The new auditorium is an incentive to elaborate productions. That such undertakings may be finished in every detail, only two large plays are given each year — one at Christmas and the other at Easter. The Perfect Gift was presented at Christmas. Specially arranged music enhanced the effects of this production. The Upper Room, given at Easter, was distinguished for its artistic settings and able acting. Smaller plays, given throughout the year, are placed under the direction of a member of the Dramatic Club who assumes responsibility for rehears- als, settings and production. The officers this year were Mary Fogarty, president; Ava Claire Donahue, vice-president; Teresa Higgins, secretary, and Marie Fitzgerald, treasurer. M. Dunham, H. Laier, H. Schneider, M.

The Club was formed for all interested in the various phases of play pro- duction, not only for the purpose of training students in dramatic art, but also to encourage and increase interest in drama. All acting, property work, make-up and costuming were done entirely by the members. The produc- tions staged during the past year were under the direction of a faculty moderator. Members are admitted to the Club only after they have shown their in- terest in dramatics by appearance or production work of plays and programs sponsored by the Dramatic Club. Short programs and one-act plays were given from time to time in the College Lyceum for the entertainment of the students and the faculty. Many of these were also given at the various schools of the Sisters of Mercy throughout the city. A special program was given by the Club during the Christmas holidays at St. James Orphanage. The officers during the past year were Ann Langley, president, and Eileen Moriarty, secretary-treasurer. E. Moriarty, M. Harris, W. Krai, M. Anstey, C. Vail, G. Mitchell, M. Kalamaja, G. Savidge, C.

Clark Murdock, Law junior, directed all pro- ductions staged by the Club during the past year. The Club is fostered by the Hospital authorities. The members finance the organization by assessments levied monthly on all members. All work is under the direction of a faculty moderator, the officers and the director. Several one-act plays and special programs were given by the Club dur- ing the past year. All productions were presented in the auditorium in the Nurses ' home. Besides the entertainment furnished, the plays gave actual training to players, who were chosen from the members of the organization. The members do all of the property and make-up work and prepare the costumes for all of the productions. Members are admitted to the Club after they have appeared in one of the plays sponsored by the organization. A committee system was used during the past year in order that all interested in drama might take part in at least one production. The officers during the past year were Angela Cunningham, president; Nelva Riley, vice-president, and Madeline Kenney, secretary-treasurer. Sister Livina was the faculty moderator. V:.

All productions staged by the Club during the past year were directed by Ernest Ondracek, a junior in the Crieghton Law School. Admittance to the Club is gained after appearance or production work in one of the plays or programs sponsored by the group. The Club, this year, limited its work to short programs and one-act plays. However, plans are now being made to give several longer plays next year. The organization also sponsored several social events during the year. The productions were presented in the auditorium of the Nurses ' home. Besides the entertainment furnished the student nurses, the faculty and the shut-ins who were able to attend, the plays gave actual training to the play- ers, who were chosen from the members of the Club. Each member was given a chance to appear in at least one production during the year. The members of the Club did all of the property work, make-up and cos- tuming for all of the plays. The officers during the past year were Vina Foley, president; Ida Doll, vice-president, and Alice Halsey, secretary-treasurer. m f p. Duffy, M. Neary, M. Rupprecht, H. Valdez, C. Rochford M.

Doll Duchesne College Children of §Mary THE highest honor which a student of Duchesne College can attain is admission to the Sodahty of the Children of Mary. The student who receives the sodality medal is the real representative of the College. She is expected to be a concrete expression of its ideals in faith, in character and in spirit. The medal has a further significance. It is the passport that gives en- trance and welcome into every convent of the Sacred Heart the world over. After leaving college it makes possible admission into the Sodality of the Children of Mary of the World, a world-wide organization with its own statutes and rules, and enriched with almost as many spiritual favors as the great congregation of the Prima Primaria in Rome, with which it is affiliated. The members of this organization have been distinguished in the past for services rendered to the Church through the influence of their example in society, and through their willingness and eagerness to help everywhere and anywhere that a woman may be of service in the Church. By means of the teaching of Catechism in the Instruction League, by sewing for the Church and the poor and other activities in her own sodality, the Duchesne student is trained for the wider field of activity of the Sodality of the Children of Mary of the World. I The College of Saint SMary Sodality THE Sodality of the Blessed Virgin, the spiritual organization of Cath- olic students of the College of Saint Mary, was formed for the spirit- ual advancement of its members and the promotion of good works. Mem- bership is open to all Catholic students of the College and the reception of new members takes place annually on December 8. Meetings are held weekly and the principal devotions of these meetings are the recitation of the office of the Blessed Virgin and the litany. From time to time business sessions are held at which a general discussion of the activities of the society takes place. The Sodality has made marked progress throughout the year. All of the meetings were well attended and bulletin boards were cleverly and artistical- ly arranged. Several one-act plays both of a religious and comedious type were given during the year. Outside clergy addressed the students several times during the year. Illus- trated lectures sponsored by the Students ' Spiritual Council were also fea- tured at many of the meetings. The annual May Day is another of the activities sponsored by the organi- zation. Representative members of the group are chosen to take part in the ceremonies of the crowning of Our Lady at this event. i%% i.W.¥ . : A « I I « ' . M. Smith, H. Tyrdy, C. McDermott, M. Hruska, V.

J., of the Creighton faculty. In its tenth year, it has grown to the point where it comprises all of the Catholic students of the school and is the most important and influential organiza- tion in the school. The Sodality performs a number of activities and devotions including the singing of hymns, the recitation of various religious devotions and the at- tendance of a special sermon every Sunday. In addition, the group holds regular meetings which are directed by the student officers under the supervision of Father Reilly, who has been mod- erator since the founding of the club. The work of the Sodality is handled by the student officers and by com- mittees. The social com mittee was composed of Florence Darcy, Helen Fogarty and Mary Hajny. The committee on music was made up of Loretta Leppert, Dorothy List and Florence Kindig. The officers during the year were Anna M.

J., of the Creighton faculty, has become one of the outstanding organizations of the affiliated schools of the University. Meetings are held every Sunday morning from ten until ten-thirty o ' clock. These meetings are under the direction of the officers who are elected at the beginning of each scholastic year and the faculty moderator. Discussions on the activities of the group and different religious topics take place at each of the meetings. The Sodality engages in different religious devotions, such as the singing of hymns, and the attendance of special religious c eremonies in a body. The singing of the group is one of the features of the student nurses ' chapel services. A three day retreat is held by an outside member of the Jesuit order in May of each year. The officers of the Sodality this year were Clara Lodes, prefect, and Mar- garet Phelps and Elizabeth Baumert, assistant prefects. E. Baumert, C. Nadolney, M. Fassbinder, Rev. J. J. Keefe, S. J., A.

Its appearance marks the conclusion of a project begun some nine months ago and brings to an end the labors of a large group of students, faculty members, artisans and busi- ness men. We have tried to build into the book the stories and scenes on the campus during the past year. We have also, in a small measure, woven into the pages, in picture and prose, some of the highlights that make up Omaha ' s history. And so, if the book does attain your ideals and expectations the purpose of the 1932 Blue-Jay will have been fulfilled. Without the aid, advice, service and patience of the many connected with the production of this volume of the Blue- Jay, the publication of the an- nual would have been impossible. It is fitting, therefore, that before closing the book acknowledgement and appreciation be given to those who so will- ingly gave their aid. To the staff, who worked so diligently. To the heads of the departments of the University and the affiliated in- stitutions. To Mr. James A. Shanahan and Mr. N. J. Baker of the Baker Bros. Engraving Company and their staff of artisans especially among whom are the Messrs. R. E. Overton, H. R. Snyder, Wm. Sheetz, J. E. Novak and J. M. Paterna. To Mr. Harry Burkley, Jr., Mr. Harry Burkley, Sr., and Mr. Robert Burkley of the Burkley Envelope and Printing Company and their large staff especially among whom are the Messrs. William Davis, Carl Cook, Charles Dagg, Lester Baldwin, Carl Kornmesser and Ray Lawrence. To Mr. Sam Babcock of the Weber-McCrea Company, who furnished the covers. To Mr. R. Douglas Chalfont, the artist. To Mr. H. Matsuo and Mr. Nat Dewell, the photographers. To the Rev. J. A. Herbers, S. J., the Rev. W. J. Corboy, S. J., Mr. Ed- ward D. Murphy and Mr. Frank E. Pellegrin. To all others who aided in the production of this volume. And finally to the Students Union Board of Governors and the student body of the University for the faith they bestowed upon us.
