FOREWORD On the left wall of the hallway on the Adminis- tration Building ' s main floor hangs a picture of Edward Creighton. Students race past this picture on their way to classes or to the library. They amble past it on their way to a leisurely cup of coffee at the Student Center. Undoubtedly all Creighton students know that it was through the benefaction of Edward Creigh- ton that the university we now attend was founded. But all are not aware that it was through his efforts that lines of communication now span the United States. The necessity of communication of knowledge was recognized by this man who left funds for the establishment of our university. But Ed Creighton also realized the necessity of national telegraph wires at the time of the Civil War. This year marks the 100th anniversary of Wires West. To celebrate the anniversary of this man ' s contribution to the progress of our country, this year ' s Blue Jay also wishes to acknowledge the progress of the university which he founded.
