V You ' ll never see Its like again Come running. I have a year to show you. What if this year is a bit out at the pockets; what matter if it must smile through tears and is given to sudden rages? What matter if it rained in the fall and your stomach went acid before each test? What if you wore yourself out flitting I ike an impatient ghost around the borders of mixers? What if you marched for the causes too often and your grades slipped, or you let the causes go hang and felt guilty about it? Remember the people you met, the ideas you knocked your head against, the feeling that the world was moving and that you were moving with it? This is not such a bad year. Here . . . polish up this hangover a bit, smear a little glue between the ragged edges of the friendship, stick a prop under this term paper, touch up this boring Sunday with a bit of paint. And take it. For what it ' s worth. Take it as you will, you will never see its like again. IV. ;♦ Hit. I -« ' PI It ' s no use now to look and guess Who ' s the person in the back? It ' s no use now, to look at these photos, and guess which will some day decorate post office walls and which will be embla- zoned on magazine covers. They show the surface: John McGillicuddy, his earthly visage as seen on a certain day in October of the Year of Our Lord 1972. You will seek in vain here for the clue to John ' s character, his hopes and fears, the substance of his conversations with his roommate late at night. Wait a bit. The artist is not done with his carving. There is more ahead for these faces: under- done eggs, late nights in bars, automobile payments, the soft touches of love, com- mon colds, inner cries, sicknesses that shake the body, shame that shakes the soul, the salvation of sacrifice for others. After all this is done, there will be time enough to haul the old book out and giggle or weep over each picture in turn, and say, Who would have guessed it? Take this year for what it ' s worth 10 IMot only education is heard here today Every year the world seems to get older faster. And the ivory towers get shorter and need whitewash more often. Not many years ago, the univer- sity was a quiet place where the student could go and concentrate on getting an education. It was a place where the world ' s problems had to wipe their feet before coming In. No more. Now the measured, succinct argument of the philosopher must struggle to be heard against the cries of the oppressed, the moans of the human being as student, the clashing music of a confused age. For these, too, echo In the hallways of learning. The student can no longer concentrate on getting an educa- tion. He has the education thrust upon him, by headlines, by governmental letters, by the different person next to him. He may suffer more than yesterday ' s student. But true knowledge, like each human being. Is born In pain. 11 12 : -% « ' ?

They will often be recalled but not clearly enough. While sitting alone leafing through the old year- books, or while reminiscing with old friends who were young classmates, some details of that year long ago will come in blurs if they come at all. Other memories of this year will be among the sharpest you have. The night you fell in love, the day you walked in for an exam and walked out with the knot of failure in your stomach. You worked, you played, you laughed, you cried, you loved, you hated, you jumped into the world feet first — you got involved with people and felt the better for it. All this is today. It was yesterday. It will be tomor- row. It ' s student life and it ' s beautiful. Bill Quinlan takes command as he organizes the next event tor the Welcome Week sports day. 16 Mike Caughlin. Judy Simon and Darius Frierson enjoy just one more at one of the beer blasts. Ben Raitano. Tom Roubinel and Bob Olberding have prime starting positions for the Delta Upsilon bike race. The campus provides many spots to rest and visit with friends— a car on California street is as good as any. 17 Marty Vacant! finds that a pause in the clay ' s occupations helps to put things in perspective. Everyone needs a few minutes to be alone each day- either to study, to read or just to think. The sun deck on the roof of Swanson Hall provides a peaceful place to study and get a tan. 18 The student center isn ' t the best place to study, but Kevin McCarthy finds it good for a pre-class review. Student life— the work of study Mary Healy studies for one last time under a favorite tree felled by Dutch Elm disease. . ' .., - ' ' f :}. ' ' ' : y ' ' ' ' ' Battle of books: won or lost here The library is where the student and the book come together. Friends or antagonists — this is where they are alone. If they cannot form a working relationship here, all the strength of traditional education suffers. And this is a small but disheartening defeat not only for the stu- dent, not only for his teacher, but also for the medieval monk, wearing out his eyes in a dim monastery copying a manuscript, for the thinker crucified on the sharp edge of public doubt, for the builder of a society meant to be ruled by rational, informed thought. If the student does assimilate the book, his life and his society are the richer for it. And often it happens here, in the library, among the stacks of thoughts, of dreams, of wisdom and insight that form the legacy of dead men who live again, and live vibrantly, on this stiff cardboard and paper. The end of a long, quiet stack is tlie perfect place to con- front and assimilate a book. .1 -. t y f i Mike Amdor enjoys the weather and the company as he pauses for a moment on his way to the library. You can ' t study all the time— even in the library— maga- zines and papers provide a relaxing, informative break. Rick Feltes finds studying and term paper writing more conveniently done with sources nearby. 21 i Charlie Keenan finds the student center a perfect place to catch up on his reading between classes. Tom Johns is one among many inveterate card players who deal away the hours between classes. 22 1l8S! 3r Annette Gleason finds the benches in the quadrangle an opportune spot to talk and watch the action. The grass never grows tall on the east quadrangle—a seemingly endless ball game takes care of that. Cards, conversation dominate east quad For many the essence of college life is not cramming for an exam in English Lit, or the relentless tracking of a line of philosophical reasoning, or even the tense, frothy roar of applause at a basketball game. No — for some remember best the dropped pass in a game of catch on the trampled Quadrangle huddled between dormitories under the sullen moistness of a November sky. Or the marathon game of bridge, played out among coffee cups and empty Coke glasses in the Student Center, away from mental disciplines, away from the world. Are they lost, these irresponsibles? Do they falter on the fast track of the great game outside college walls? Or are they the realists who find that life, too, con- tains the miscue on a sodden field, the card dealt heed- lessly into a puddle of cold coffee? %. Ann Butkus enjoys the fine spring weather as she pre- pares to join the action around the beer keg. The pleasant surroundings of the Hill Haven beer blasts provided a good chance to meet people. Beer drinking, girl watching and a nice day. What more could you want on a Saturday afternoon? 24 Beer draws students to weekend blast While students petitioned university officials for a rathskeller to provide legal alcoholic beverages on- campus, the Student Board found an interim solution in a new Creighton institution, the beer blast . Whether they were held in an antiquated dow n- town meeting hall, a university dining room, or in an open field on a nearby farm, the blasts provided a w elcome relief from the academic blues. Numerous kegs of beer lubricated the activities. Bands provided music for the light afoot and the con- genial settings induced cozy conversation. The imposing number of kegs never proved to be a match for the indomitable Creighton students who stayed well into the night to insure that no dregs remained. Kent Ban and Ellen Graham mirror the amicable spirit that permeated the all-university picnics at Hill Haven. Getting through the suds and into the beer presents a problem— but there are ways of dealino with it.

John Tuerk flips a bundle of blankets up to Joe McMahon to complete the relay sending them off to New York. Blankets and fast give Pakistan aid Seven thousand blankets and $3,000. That was the result of Creighton ' s effort toward the relief of Pakistan ' s refugees. On Sunday, October 17, 75 Creighton students and 225 high school students canvassed the city to collect the blankets and $1,500 in cash. The blankets were later sent to the Catholic Relief Service in New York. The service pledged to match the number of blankets collected and forward them to the Catholic Relief Service in Calcutta, India for distribu- tion to Pakistan. The drive was co-sponsored by the Student Board of Governors and the Community Service Center. Monday, November 1, was declared a day of fast by the Board. Catering Management, Inc. agreed to remit money to the cause based on the number of stu- dents participating in the fast. Of 1,475 students covered by the food plan only 120 ate breakfast, 500 lunch and 500 dinner. The remission by the food service and donations of town students totaled $1,500. Chris Harlan takes a well deserved break as a new crew take over the folding duties for a while. 27 The upper Brandeis dining room held a capacity crowd anxious to hear the cheerleaders ' side of the story. John Scully, a member of Young Americans for Freedom, explains his opposition to the cheerleaders stand. Student Board President Joe Warm opens the meeting called to discuss the cheerleader controversy. 28 Sharon Watson pleads the case on behalf of the cheer- leaders at a meeting in the Brandeis student center. Cheerleaders seek individual rights The opening of basketball season brought the open- ing of a major campus controversy with the question of how the cheerleaders should react to the pre-game play- ing of the national anthem. Initially the black cheerleaders stayed on the floor and remained seated with the majority of other black students. When objections to this were voiced the entire squad elected to leave the floor for the playing of the anthem. Pressure from alumni and the general public grew and the administration issued an ultimatum — either the squad would remain on the floor and stand or they would resign. The university held that as representatives of the university the cheerleaders should reflect the views of the university. The squad called a public meeting to present their side of the story and circulated petitions calling for the reinstatement of the squad. 29 t Marching takes a big share of the recruit ' s life as these ROTC students find out early in the course.

Hedgpath makes a point in a classroom session. ROTC continues military tradition An ambiguous federal law depriving most freshmen of student deferments from military service had an indeterminable effect on Creighton ' s ROTC program. Enrollment in the program has decreased steadily since the university made participation voluntary in 1969. Only about 85 students were attending military science classes during the fall semester. Although enrollment figures dipped significantly, officer potential showed a marked increase over pre- vious years. Thirty-two seniors were to receive commis- sions upon graduation. Contract requirements call for the program to produce a minimum of twenty-five officers per year, but the department has had difficulty attaining that number in recent years. Col. lames Castrale, batallion commander, oversaw the annual inspection in the spring, an event required of all ROTC programs by federal law. The ROTC academic advisory council was author- ized to continue operation as a special committee in- definitely. The council advises the president of the university on matters affecting the ROTC program.

Nuncio has entertained Creighton students for years at his fashionable watering hole near campus 32 John Catalano tries his best to finish off his pitcher so he can start with a fresh one. The lure of brew still draws students Despite the winds of change sweeping colleges across the nation, carrying with them a whiff of mari- juana smoke, the college bar , sanctioned by law and socially useful as a meeting place, still attracts student hordes. Pseudo-revolutionaries may giggle over grass in darkened, weirdly-lit rooms, but the great mob of Creighton hearties, male and female alike, find their inhibitions submerge best in a foaming schooner of beer at the Golden Buda, or are ground to small par- ticles between the ice-cubes of a Scotch-and-water at Nuncio ' s Lounge. For those who would believe they are the dawn of another age, there is Farquhar ' s, a sort of halfway- house in the Old Market. Here, between suitable bare brick walls and under the onslaught of hard rock, long- hair and jock alike can seek the joys of liquor and the chase. But perhaps the real truth-seekers, the poets, those who are relentlessly true to the milieu, still find themselves slouching through the door of Jim ' s Bar. Here the Bluejay Special , the pitifully unsubtle offer of a free pitcher of beer for each three consumed, has the dignity of tradition behind it— the kind of weathered worth that must appeal to the sworn enemy of sham. Ann Olson enjoyed the refreshments and the conversa- tion after a hard day of classes. 33 Creighton initiated a program this year to fill in part of the long semester-Christmas vacation period. The interim program or mini-semester was designed specifically for women who dropped out of college to marry. The program ran from January 3-19 with classes held from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Luncheon lectures were held on topics of particular interest to contem- porary women. Four fully accredited courses were offered: Ameri- can Women in Politics, Child Care and Development, Legal Environment of Business and The Contemporary American Novel. Mrs. Eileen Lieben, Dean of Women, and Dr. Anne Scheerer, Dean of Summer Session and Special Pro- grams, coordinated the course. The mini-semester program allowed women who had been away from education to make a gradual re-entry. 34 .ii.-- . •-). - ■ End of semester introduces ' interim ' It all started on December 22, 1971. All they did was combine semester break with Christmas vacation and call it interim. New to Creighton, interim took on many forms for many people. A chance to get away from school for a month in mid-year, to relax and have fun. A chance to earn three hours of credit while touring Europe. A chance to work and get a head start on second semes- ter bills. Exams done, papers in, hit the road, catch a plane — get away. The hilltop took on an atypical month-long calm. Empty buildings, vacant parking lots, darkened student center. But for only a month. On January 24, 1972 all was back to normal. -i«L-_ -• 36 The coming of interim saw a month-long slowdown of campus activity: students left for home and once scarce parking spaces abounded.

At the close of the first semester it appeared that the entire squad would resign in protest over the issue. Over semester break it seemed that all but two of the cheerleaders had decided to honor the university ' s decision and stand for the anthem. However at a January 27 news conference four of the black cheerleaders announced that they would con- tinue not standing for the national anthem. Sharon Watson said that although the four expected to be suspended from the squad they would continue to appear nonetheless. The issue was finally resolved when the cheerlead- ing squad was disbanded. Ben Benford and Edgar Tidwell voiced their support of tlie ctieerleaders during the press conference. 38 Richard McGaugh and Sharon Watson (above) presented the cheerleader ' s side of the issue along with Earlene Baggett and Sonny Foster. 39 Issue resolved with end to squad Bob Todd (right) explains his position to Creightonian editor Jim Cleary (below) as cheerleaders Sharon Wat- son, and Earlene Baggett look on and reporter Maureen Shaughnessy takes notes. 40 41 Board calls boycott in tuition protest Perhaps the one Creighton tradition that neither time nor the Student Board can ever do away with is the hallowed annual tuition hike. This year ' s hike produced a call from the Student Board of Governors to boycott all classes on March 1, and to attend a rally in the upper level of Brandeis Student Center that morning. While most classes were held as usual with at least 50 per cent attendance, the rally drew about 1,000 students to hear the Rev. Joseph Labaj, university presi- dent, and Walter Jahn, vice-president for finance, explain the reasons behind the increase and to answer questions. Tuition was hiked by $150 in the undergraduate colleges, in the Schools of Law and Pharmacy and by $250 in the schools of Medicine and Dentistry. This brought the rate to $1,850 per year in under- graduate programs. i Mike Hickey contemplates the financial aspects of ttie tuition hike as explained by Walter Jahn.

Joseph Labaj, S.J., saying the request w as denied because he did not believe the appearance would be in the best interests of the uni- versity or that Rubin would contribute to the intellec- tual climate of Creighton. After receiving word of the president ' s decision, the Board called itself into special session. The six hour meeting ran through the afternoon and into the evening of March 10. Two motions to defy the president ' s decision were made — one was withdrawn and the other died for lack of a second. Other proposals were that the entire board resign in protest and that the issue be dropped. Both of these motions were withdrawn before they came to a vote. After continued debate on the issue the Board adjourned without taking any action. 46 Kmvmwmvw Gary Batenhorst, Tim Sullivan and Tim Lannon listen to Bill Cook ' s explanation of the Rubin matter.

Fire alarms plague campus residents Fire alarms were a major concern during the second semester — and most of them were false. A rash of false alarms turned Swanson hall resi- dents out of the building at all hours of the day and night. Ironically, on February 21, when residents in Kiewit Hall smelted smoke coming from a trash chute on the sixth floor, the fire alarm failed to sound when activated. Residents were told over the intercom system to evacuate the building and seven fire trucks converged on the scene. Apparently debris had been smoldering in the chute and the danger ended when someone poured water down the chute. 48 Residents gathered outside the dorm while firemen checked the building and found no fire. =1 vV ' ■ , ' - Steve Lefler gallantly rescues a Kiewit Hall resident after the hall was evacuated. 49 Town Council gives self-service music The age of self-service and do-it-yourself is upon us in many areas, so why not entertainment? Make your own kind of music was the only kind heard wafting out of the fishbowl of the Brandeis Student Center on February 27. A Town Council sponsored jam session drew a large crowd of people bearing assorted instruments and different drums. When they were all put together they made dif- ferent kinds of music with one kind of result — entertainment.

On February 7, after one of those big tests , fresh- men in the School of Medicine decided to unwind in style. A laboratory was pressed into temporary service as a combination kitchen-dining room as sauce bubbled over Bunsen burners and wine gurgled into beakers. The menu included mostaccioli, salad, assorted wines, buttered Italian bread, antipasto and banana cake. Tom Ruma served as the head chef and presided over his domain with flair.

Everywhere but on the Creighton campus. In a year when junk was turning into junque to be recycled into fashionable home accessories, it remained junk at Creighton and was turned into landscape litter. The Creightonian spoke out in a strong editorial for a stop to the litter and the even more serious prob- lem of pedestrians being pelted with litter from high atop Swanson hall. In addition to the normal array of beer cans, wine bottles, paper cups and candy wrappers, there was the addition of firecrackers falling from dorm windows and shattering the early morning still of the East quad- rangle. KWS f . i ■- ' 54 55 What do athletes do on road trips? Creightonian sports editor Peggy Jansa travelled with the basketball team to the Lobo Invitational in Albuquer- que, N. M. Her report gives an insight on what happens when the team takes to the road. Being the only coed to accompany the team on the road trip to the Lobo Invitational in Albuquerque, N. M., was a unique, and to say the least, interesting experience. What do athletes do on road trips? The Bluejays do all sorts of funny things. They play a best of seven series in honeymoon bridge on the plane, and have all kinds of contests in every airport. Some lucky young lady from Dallas was proclaimed the girl of the day, by unanimous decision. A typical day before a game while you ' re on the road consists of eating, sleeping, practicing, eating, eating and eating. Road trips are not all the glamour, relaxation and excitement I had imagined them to be, however. Granted, there is an element of adventure when traveling to a far-away place to play big time basket- ball, but there are also long hours of traveling, many times with two and three hour layovers in crowded air- ports. There are strange hotels, early morning prac- tice sessions, pre-game jitters and strange crowds. Most of all there is that lonely trip back to the dressing room dragging your third straight loss. But there is also the ecstasy of pulling an upset victory before a crowd of 17,550 and thus establishing a new tournament record. Both happened at the Lobo Invitational. The Jays fell to defeat at the hands of powerful St. John ' s University. Their disappointment was coupled with personal dissatisfaction at team performance, all of which made for a quiet trip back to the hotel and a 12:30 curfew. But disappointment breeds determination as the Jays proved the following night when they met the Aggies of Texas A M in consolation play. The Jays, again the underdogs, raced past the Texans and estab- lished a new tournament scoring record. Young autograph seekers topped off the Jays ' first big victory after three straight defeats. It ' s amazing what such a victory does for an athlete ' s disposition. The Jays scribbled notes to small admirers and, to be sure, the pleasure was mutual. The Jays spent one afternoon Christmas shopping in downtown Albuquerque before boarding planes and heading for their home towns — a three day vacation from basketball and a merry Christmas with their families.

Creighton Groups gather 8,500 cans 60 The Community Action Committee offered a $100 incentive to the group bringing in the most cans of food during its food drive on March 26. The committee, headed by Mary Higgins, organized campus groups and divided the city into areas to facih- tate the collection efforts. A central collection point was set up in the fish- bowl of the Brandeis Student Center. As the drive got under way the prize money took second place to the desire to help. All the food collected was donated to four Omaha food pantries for distribu- tion to the needy in the city. Over 8,500 cans were collected with a coalition of Delta Zeta, Delta Chi and Phi Kappa Psi taking first place. ; uni Nunzlato struggles to get the load of cans her group gathered in to be counted.

The formation of Adam ' s Rib gave the women a chance to organize for action, and action they took. After the group advocated that the option of abor- tion be open to w omen, the Rev. Joseph Labaj, S.J., university president, issued a strong statement present- ing the university ' s position on the issue. The group also sought an end to the tradition of the Homecoming Queen. A student referendum was called through the efforts of the group, but students overwhelmingly supported the tradition.

Events were planned to immediately involve people in the academic, social and recreational activities on campus. One orientation luncheon featured a panel dis- cussion on Student Rights and Responsibilities. A black student orientation session introduced black faculty members and explained the Afro-American courses available. Numerous conferences familiarized the student with the available academic options and gave him a chance to gather information on possible majors. Casino night, soul night, sports day, a picnic, a mixer and other activities provided entertainment and recreation. ,.- ' .

Lines and forms — that ' s registration Need it be said? Registration shaped up again as fine basic training for recruits for the population explo- sion. No cattle prods were in evidence, but all the other stockyards elements were there: the brawling and pushing, the confusion, the dumb desperation of animals being led to that undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveler returns — in this case the wasteland of cancelled courses, closed sections, etc. Years of evaluation of these antiquated procedures have produced many neat stacks of reports, and hopes of a streamlined version for the second semester. While Creighton did not have efficient registration — despite pre-registration of first semester freshmen by mail — it did have a slight increase in attendance. National enrollment figures declined or remained the same, but Creighton pushed ahead, with enrollment boosts reflected most prominently in the School of Law and the undergraduate freshman class. So you probably saw more strangers at registration than usual. Did you moo them a friendly greeting? Once you have those treasured IBM cards in your hands It ' s downhill all the way— no more fear of closed courses. 82 Jan Eberl demonstrates proper registration form as she fills out the last of the huge stack required for the process. All students must rapidly develop a talent for standing in lines— that ' s how most of registration day is spent. 83 m £ A pronounced absence of students at convocation left an even more pronounced number of empty seats. Dr. Louis Mayhew, professor of education at Stanford University, speaks on Private Education in America. 84 F. Josepti Warin, president of the Student Board of Gov- ernors, delivers ttie introductory remarks. University President, the Rev. Joseph Labaj, S.J., delivers the convocation address. Dr. Klein receives convocation honor Each year, as the autumn advances into winter, there is the dropping of the first brown leaf, the first really cold night, and the first snowfall. And there is convocation. The first three events are attended with very little pomp and circumstance; the last, with a great deal. On September 30 of this school year, Creighton ' s faculty and administration gathered in the gymnasium, with considerable flashing of rainbow-hued academic robes. They heard the Rev. Joseph Labaj, S.}., univer- sity president, deliver the convocation address. They heard Dr. Louis Mayhew, professor of educa- tion at Stanford University, speak on Private Education in America. They saw Dr. Francis Klein, assistant professor of chemistry, receive — as the result of student vote — the second annual Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Award for Teaching Achievement. A few interested students were also in attendance. Dr. Francis Klein receives the second annual Robert F. Kennedy teaching award as Mrs. Klein looks on. 85 Fall Frolics drive sets blood record Fall Frolics this year turned out an overwhelming success. A record breaking blood drive elected an ugly Mr. Ugly and a cute Miss Cutie to preside over a rollick- ing, frolicking, good-time dance at Peony Park. Michelle Manatt, representing Alpha Sigma Gamma sorority and Ted Boesen, representing Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, earned the Cutie-Ugly titles from votes based on blood donations. The lively A Band Called Horse kept the even livelier crowd of over 900 on the dance floor most of the night. The blood drive, headed by Tom McCormick, set two records — a regional mark for collections in one day (335 pints) and a Creighton total donation record of 675 pints. Michelle Manatt and Ted Boesen congratulate each other after being named Miss Cutie and Mr. Ugly. A Red Cross worker determines the blood type of a stu- dent preparing to donate blood. 86 A constant flow of students into tfie donation center enabled the Red Cross to collect record amounts. Denny Loeffelhole seems sorry he volunteered as the moment to donate draws nearer. Frank Krifels grins with relief as he finds out giving blood doesn ' t hurt as much as he anticipated. 87 John Roode kept the Fall Frolics activities rolling as he announced the Miss Cutie and Mr. Ugly winners.

A Band Called Horse provided plenty of music to keep this couple dancing all night. 89 Homecoming sees tradition carry on Homecoming 1971 overcame attacks from women ' s liberation and student apathy to achieve success. Adam ' s Rib, a w omen ' s liberation group on campus, claimed the Homecoming Queen tradition w as demean- ing to wfomen and forced a referendum seeking its abolishment. Tradition prevailed by a 904-209 vote. Afternoon classes w ere cancelled on December 1 for the Homecoming carnival. The carnival overcame a poor initial response to draw an enthusiastic crowd. The December 3 Homecoming game provided an exciting victory as the Bluejays outclassed a taller team of Montana State Bobcats 101-78. Halftime activities of the game saw the crowning of Mary Bowman as Homecoming Queen, with Jeanette Parks and Connie Cavel as first and second attendants. Jane Schumacher contributes to the carnival atmos- phere, distributing festive balloons.

The rock group Mason Proffit (above and below) shared the stage with Bill Withers for the December 2 concert. 94 Withers and Proffit concert successful What at first sounded like a strange combination turned out to be a winner. The Homecoming concert presented soul singer Bill Withers and the rock group Mason Proffit. The double bill of a soul artist and a semi country-rock group seemed unusual to some but the performers proved to be compatible. The Bill Withers-Mason Proffit concert was a last minute change to the Homecoming proceedings. Solo singer Mary Travers had originally been scheduled to appear but cancelled her performance after her accom- panist quit. 95 Mary Bowman reigns over Homecoming events Queen candidate Mary Bowman is on the auction block as she is sold into slavery at the Homecoming carnival.

The August 29 concert, featured in the rock group Grass Roots and solo ballad singer Denny Brooks drew the largest crowd ever for a Creighton concert — 2,350. Technical difficulties and the Civic Auditorium Music Hall ' s notorious bad acoustics served to down- grade an already rough performance by the Grass Roots. However Denny Brooks, formerly of the Back Porch Majority, single handedly saved the show with his performance. While the Grass Roots merited only mild applause. Brooks drew a standing ovation and calls for an encore. Soloist Denny Brooks proved to be the high point of Creighton s first all-university concert this year. 99 The Grass Roots and Denny Brooks 100 101 To be Young, Gifted and Black A standing room only crowd filled the Rigge Lecture Hall for the Creighton performance of To Be Young, Gifted and Black, a play by Lorraine Hansberry. The overflow crowd at the October 26 presentation was directed to the Eppley Lecture Hall where they viewed on a closed circuit television system. The play, excellently presented by a national touring company, documented events in the playwright ' s life. A cast of seven portrayed Miss Hansberry, the people who affected her life and the characters she created. The play was woven together from her letters, diaries, notebooks and portions of her plays by her hus- bandRobertNemiroff afterherdeath from cancer in 1965.

Turnabout gives winter some life For the second consecutive year, Creighton ' s answer to the activities gap between Homecoming in late fall and Prom in late spring was a turnabout dance, sponsored by the Arts Senate and staged in early February. The semi-formal event drew a good crowd to the Omaha Hilton where coeds, in true turnabout fashion, led their dates from table to bar to dance floor; a rock band called Crackin ' provided the music. With the end of the dance the evening was over, but the morning was only beginning as several lively parties capped Creighton ' s winter weekend. I II Post dance parties abounded.

The series was designed to inform people on current problem areas in the field of mass communications. The first one, held at Creighton, dealt with the prob- lems involved in covering civil disturbances. Forum number two featured a discussion of prior restraint led by Dr. Richard Shugrue, associate pro- fessor of law at Creighton. The third program investigated the area of cable television. A number of Omaha broadcasters turned out to question Steve Schoen, a representative of a Den- ver based cable-TV firm. Newsman Dave Hamer tells of his personal experiences covering civil disturbances. Steve Schoen, of the Telecommunications Corporation of Denver, explains benefits of cable television. 106 Frank Scott, president of the Nebraska Association of Broadcasters presents his side of the cable TV Issue.

Kerry, national chairman of Vietnam Veterans Against the War, has been active in trying to get anti- Vietnam war candidates elected to offices nationwide. It ' s difficult to put a finger on what ' s happening in our country but it ' s evident that the American Dream is crumbling. There are things in America we don ' t understand and we are blinding ourselves to them, he said. Kerry noted that there will be 25 million new voters in the 1972 elections and urged the audience to do something constructive with the vote. Quoting the late Robert Kennedy he said that change comes through little ripples in the system. Kerry con- cluded by asking the audience to build not just ripples but waves, to make this place what we want it to be. John Kerry 109 gi Buckminster Fuller 110 Fuller ' s concern is future possibilities H. Buckminster Fuller, scientist, mathematician, architect, cartographer, engineer and poet, spoke October 8 in the Brandeis Student Center. Fuller ' s books and lectures deal with the possible marvelous future man can have if he learns to control technology. Fuller founded the dymaxion principle and designed a dymaxion house which could be produced and sold at very low cost. The 76 year old designer for the future was one of a series of lectures sponsored by the University Committee on Lectures, Films and Concerts and the Student Board of Governors. Ill Saul Alinsky, a dumpy little man with a pot belly, moved in on Creighton February 16, his wavy hair ruffled and tangled in back as if by the tailwind of his turbulent journey through American society. The man who organized the poor, the outcasts, the little men and showed them how to beat the corpor- ations, the vested interests and the big men, jammed his hands down into his rumpled trousers and told it his way. The community organizer must be completely. real- istic and see the world as it is. He knows people only get involved with issues that are important to their self- interest. He knows the right things are invariably done for the wrong reasons. Students across the country are getting interested in Alinsky ' s plodding pragmatic method — organize, cut issues, work from power and come down from the vague idealism of movements, he said. A movement without organization is going to wind up a bowel movement, intoned Alinsky. Bluntness, irreverence, scorn for integrity and morality ( Forget it ) — these are Saul Alinsky, a man who hasn ' t got the power but knows damn well where to get it. Bluntness, irreverence —these are Saul Alinsky 112 Saul Allnsky held the close attention of the audience as he related his organizational methods. 113 •Ml ' . Margaret Mead drew a capacity crowd to hear tier speecti and later met informally with students. 114 Margaret Mead Margaret Mead visits Creighton Dr. Margaret Mead, anthropologist, spoke to a near capacity crowd at Creighton on February 23. Her lec- ture was entitled Contributions from the Periphery. There is a tremendous break in the opinions of those born before World War II and those born after, Dr. Mead said, and this applies to all civilizations of the world. Some people call it the generation gap, she said, but it is not a matter of being young or old. Wars used to unite everybody, but since the bomb no one could ever win a war today. Wars are too dangerous. What is needed, she said, is a new life style that could be shared around the world, a life style that would make humans more human. t«-- 3L;.,. .;iffl 115 IMew methods smooth registration woes Second semester registration was the first test of a newly revised system aimed at simplifying the ordeal. With the new plan students set up a schedule when they pre-register and the pre-registration is binding. A charge is made for any changes at the time of regis- tration so most course conflicts, closings and changes can be worked out well in advance of registration day. The new methods proved to be at least some improvement. The closed course board was devoid of the usual mess of numbered cards which spelled doom for so many beautiful schedules in the past. All is not lost however, there will always be the lines and the stacks of forms to be filled out in triplicate. It isn ' t too hard to find tine funny side of registration - Mike Peccianti relates it to his friends. 116 w Mike Hickey and Fred Longo take one more registration in stride after figuring ttieir sctiedules.

Delta Chi, this year ' s winner, portrayed Creighton as the end of the rainbow in their Wizzard of Oz skit. The end of the rainbow? Hardly. Theta Phi Alpha and Delta Zeta took second and third places in the annual make fun of Creighton night. Some 500 students took out three hours on March 24 to watch the festivities. Seven organizations mustered their talent to make the 1972 Creighton Capers a satirical success. 118 Theta Phi Alphas give the version of life on California Street during their Capers skit. 119 Capers cast shows no mercy The crowd packed Rigge Lecture Hall to see the annual campus cut ups cut down Creighton. 120 Alpha Sigma Gammas Michelle Manatt, Maureen McCann, Joette Pelster and Mary Ann Hilger give their version of the campus.

The event was held at the Offutt Air Force Base Officer ' s Club to recognize outstanding cadets of the year. Awards for distinguished military students were presented and special awards for performances during summer training were presented. The Rev. Michael P. Sheridan, dean of students, spoke and a number of university officials including the Rev. Joseph Labaj, S.J., president and the Rev.

The staff worked to keep the high quality of news reporting while also covering the campus in depth with more twelve page issues than ever before. First semester saw the initial use of four color printing in the Creightonian with the December 3 issue. Second semester editor Mary Arouni also scored a first with her 16 page issue on March 24.

The Rev. Leland Lubbers, S.J., resigned as chair- man of the department due to an increased work load and some special projects he w as involved in. The Rev. Don Doll, S.J., v as named to coordinate a committee of all full time fine arts faculty which would be responsible for managing all fine arts affairs. Growing enrollment in the department and the addition of new courses and programs were also seen. A certificate program was developed to allow people interested in fine arts to continue their edu- cation for a lower cost. The program offered credits toward a fine arts certificate rather than college credit toward a diploma. The Rev. L. E.

In these words the Rev. Thomas McKenney, S.J., dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, summed up the attitude of the college as it was in the process of revamping the curriculum. The year was mainly dedicated to implementing the wide range of curriculum changes previously adopted. A less rigid set of basic requirements and the elimination of the requirement for a minor placed the emphasis on an elective system, allowing each student to pursue his own interestes to a greater degree. Efforts were also being made to improve the rela- tionship of the college administration with the faculty and the students. Revision of the committee system and the adoption of a new executive faculty concept were planned to expand faculty and student participation into all aspects of the administration of the college.

Formally titled the Creighton Oratorical Association, its members are trained in debate, extem- poraneous speaking, public speaking, and other types of speech. The Jaytalkers participated in the debate and speech activities of the Missouri Valley Forensic League and the Nebraska Intercollegiate Forensics Association. Thoy also traveled to invitational debate and speech tournaments throughout the United States. Closer to home, members of the organization helped staff the University Speaker ' s Bureau and judged high school speech contests. 159 Fasching highlights German Club events The German Club endeavored to cultivate an interest and appreciation of the German language and culture. Active membership was limited to Creighton students interesed in German. Monthly meetings were conducted at which students held informal sessions on topics of general interest. Social functions, films, lectures, and slides made up the varied program conducted by the students. Among the social events a Fasching Ball, a German cos- tume affair, and a scheduled spring party took precedence. A faculty member of the German Section of the Modern Languages Department moderated the German Club ' s attempts to facilitate an appreciation of the German culture.

Math Club event draws 600 students The focal point of the Math Club ' s activities each year is the Math field day. This annual event draws supporters and participants from the entire community. This year the event drew 600 high school students who competed for scholarships provided by the university. The field day was the main item of the group ' s busi- ness meetings as committees were set up to compile the tests, mail announcements and complete all necessary arrangements. Socially the club held a picnic, a Halloween party and an appreciation party for all those who helped organize the field day. 161 Physics Club sponsors varied events Creighton ' s chapter of the American Society of Physics Students was organized in 1967 to succeed the Physics Club. Membership was open to all students considering physics one of their primary interests. The chapter held bi-monthly meetings conducted by student officers, with a member of the Department of Physics serving as moderator. The chapter sponsored a physics college bowl on campus in which midwestern high school teams com- peted. Members participated in tutoring and under- graduate research, presenting their work at regional physics meetings, including the April session of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences held in Lincoln, Nebr. Other activities included lectures, field trips, social events, and projects coordinated with the American Institute of Physics. 1 Teaching fellow Ron Bruno discusses a fine point of Pfiysics with one of the students.

Improvement sought through SIMEA The Student National Education Association is composed of students who are majoring or minoring in education. It tries to help members become better teachers through various activities and to make students awrare of current educational issues. The group promotes an exchange of ideas and experiences among education students and sponsors teas for the student teachers and their cooper- ating teachers. Student teaching is an integral part of an education major ' s program.

The Council set up operable house governments within the two dorms in the West Quadrangle to facili- tate the operation of the residence hall governments. The West Quadrangle Judiciary System was revised and reorganized. The Council co-sponsored a leader- ship conference with the East Quadrangle Council at Creighton ' s O ' Donnel Center for the various residence hall governors. The Council also initiated a proposal to revamp the system for selecting resident advisers. Besides running the student government within the dorms, the Council managed such things as the purchasing of dorm athletic equipment, oversaw the residence hall recreational facilities, and sponsored films and movies for the dorm students. Toni Wieland points out some problems to be discussed at ttie next meeting of the group. West Quadrangle Council, (bottom) Nora English, trolly Maher. Jane Sullivan (treasurer). Mark Kleithfield.

The group sponsors tours of laboratories in local hospitals, and attempts to promote professionalism by bringing guest speakers to campus, holding panel dis- cussions and through other activities. 167 History honorary sponsors seminars Phi Alpha Theta, the International Honor Society in History, had an active year on the Creighton campus. The group sponsored four informal seminars on current history. For each seminar a member of the his- tory faculty would give background information and then lead an open discussion. The seminars covered India — Pakistan, Chile, U.S. Policy After Vietnam and Northern Ireland. Future plans included more seminars, a fund rais- ing project and a dinner with election of new officers. The society is open to students who have com- pleted 12 hours of history with a 3.1 average in those courses. Phi Alpha Theta. (bottom) Carol Wiegand.

Careful now; make sure each individual is unique, yet able to surrender his individuality to a higher cause — group fun. Now send members of the group cavorting through intramural sports, social events, and, most especially, in local taverns. A formal title seems almost contradictory, but such a group existed on the hilltop, and it called itself Kahuna. Members of Kahuna ' s mythical heirarchy were quick to point out that their group knew not the mean- ing of parody . Yet one of the group ' s founders had to suppress a giggle when mention was made of the Greek alphabet. Kahuna welcomed all comers, and co-founder Margaret Toomey seemed quite confident that her proteges would wreak good-spirited havoc for at least the year to come. Margaret Toomey and Peggy Polus prepare a sign as part of Kahunas efforts to promote school spirit. 170 College of Business Administration 171 College works for service to Omaha The College of Business Administration is trying to build a commitment for service to the Omaha com- munity as well as to the classroom enrollee, Dr. Charles Andrews, acting dean said in summing up the school year. And the college participated in programs toward that end. A course entitled Health Agency Manage- ment . . . For Results was a week long course for man- agers of health agencies which the Management Edu- cation Center of the college co-sponsored with the School of Medicine. The college also ran a program Improving Man- agement . . . Improving Profits. This course, directed by Dr. David Ambrose, was a series of programs and discussions of current minority management problems. It was designed specifically for minority businessmen and people considering opening a business. A new course offered in the Accounting depart- ment was designed to serve the entire university. Indi- vidual Federal Income Taxes, which was offered with no prerequisites, won good acceptance especially from the Health Science professions. Dr. William Litzinger was named to succeed Dr. George Hardbeck as dean of the college. Dr. Litzinger assumed the post during the second semester. ,, W7 --- ■■.•.• ' -I :;u.=5S ' Dr. William Litzinger Dean Dr. Charles Andrews Acting Dean 172 Program serves minority business The College of Business Administration, deter- mined to serve the city as well as the campus, provided an opportunity for Omaha ' s minority businessmen to improve their management skills. A ten week program, directed by Dr. David Am- brose, attracted some 41 persons from the community. Funding for the program was obtained by Acting Dean Dr. Charles Andrews through the Higher Education Act of 1965. After surveying the businessmen. Dr. Andrews constructed a program of topics they wanted to learn about. Sessions were planned to be independent of each other so that missing one week would not be a disadvantage the next week. Dr. Ambrose said the participation was serious and enthusiastic. The kinds of questions asked in later sessions indicated that the earlier sessions had made a practical impact, he said. Faculty members for the program were drawn from local businesses as well as from Creighton and UNO. Dr. David Ambrose, director of the minority business program, listens in at one of tfie sessions.

Administrators initiated an extensive examination of the school ' s curriculum to try to develop a new edu- cational program which would emphasize subjects relevant to a sound Health Science education. A Cur- riculum Committee was appointed in November to provide guidance in developing such a comprehensive program. The committee endeavored to prepare recommen- dations to reduce the time students must spend in established programs, increase academic mobility within the curricula, and more fully integrate minority groups into the Health Sciences. Extensive research was done to cut down the time needed for medical education and to allow earlier specialization. In addition to existing family clinics supported by the school and staffed by medical students, a new Mexican-American Health Center was opened in down- town Omaha to serve the needs of that community. The clinic was one of many projects designed to stim- ulate student interest not only in medicine, but also in the people of the community. 180 Doctors Dutta Seshachalam and Richard Ortez compare notes for microbiology classes. 181 ' 1 V 1 1 fc Freshmen Joe Sippel and Terry Fitzgibbons take a lunch break from a tough lab session. 182 L.

Dr. Robert Vining Acting Dean School of Dentistry adds honors course Dr. Raymond Shaddy. former dean, was appointed to the new post of associate vice president of health sciences. A major change in the School of Dentistry curricu- lum was the addition of a senior honors program. This program was designed to give second semester seniors a deeper understanding of dentistry in three ways. — A program of elective courses going beyond the normal curriculum. These courses being open to honors students only. — A private practice preceptorship which all seniors take part in. Under this program each senior is assigned to a private practice office for a two week period. — A comprehensive patient care program in which selected students are allowed to operate in the clinic on a simulated private practice basis. The students employ total patient care with a minimum of faculty supervision. The school also added a Treatment Planning Com- mittee which met with students two times a week to help them develop a total treatment plan for their patients. Ceramic laboratory capability was also added this year with the installation of a small facility and the addition of a ceramic laboratory technician to the staff. This work was previously done by outside com- mercial sources. 190 p 1 The Creighton Clinic provides ample opportunities for stu- dents.

Delta Sigma Delta Delta Sigma Delta, national pharmacy fraternity, attempted to mix varied dental projects with an active social schedule. Members of the fraternity helped staff an Indian dental clinic and conducted seminars for freshman students on various aspects of dentistry. Business meetings and banquets were held regularly. The meetings often included movies on current dental practice and the banquets usually featured a guest speaker. The chapter sent two of its members to each of three regional dental conferences; the members pre- sented papers on several topics and returned to share the information they had acquired with members of the chapter. Socially, the chapter held regular parties; in addi- tion, some of the major social events of the year included a steak banquet, a Halloween party, and a spring luau. Xi Psi Phi Though the smaller of the two dental social fra- ternities, Xi Psi Phi did not suffer from inactivity. The chapter initiated an attempt to establish an undergrad- uate pre-dental club. Members of the fraternity spon- sored clinics to acquaint dental freshmen with pro- cedures within the dental school. Regular business meetings were held, with several guest speakers engaged to lecture the chapter on varied topics. Also, representatives were sent to the fraternity ' s national convention to help in formulating national policy and participate in the election of national officers. Monthly parties were held to break the monotony of the students ' year-round study. The top social events of the year included the Druid Festival, the ZIP senior banquet, the Shakey ' s pizza party, and the summer sports day, staged at the beginning of the academic term, in August.

Interest in clinical pharmacy is rising among health science students, as evidenced by the continued increase in enrollment in the School of Pharmacy. Curriculum changes geared to prepare the student for modern pharmaceutical work were implemented by the school ' s administration. Juniors and seniors took a basic medical course with sophomore medical students. Pilot programs in clinical pharmaceutical study were initiated, with plans for all seniors to serve internships in area hospitals. The new curriculum emphasized therapeutics and effective application of drugs, enabling the pharmacist to serve as a drug consultant in the actual treatment of patients. Internship programs played an important role in the shift in emphasis to clinical pharmacy. Senior clerk- ships were proposed for the 1972-73 academic year which would enable students to spend twelve weeks in clinical training in hospitals, community clinics, and retail drug stores.

Frankino, the School of Law undertook a year long in depth study of what kind of legal education program would be best for Creighton University and the city of Omaha. The curriculum was restructured for the 1972-73 school year with changes in the first year program and movement toward a fully elective program in the second and third years. Expansion of the curriculum moved the school into the clinical field as 40 third year students participated in clinical programs with the Legal Aid Society and the city prosecuter ' s and city attorney ' s offices. More programs were being developed to find a means of integrating law students more closely with the legal profession — particularly the Omaha bar. The faculty was expanded with the addition of five new professors and the number of library service personnel and support people was doubled over the year with more expansion due next year. Enrollment at the school continued to grow in keep- ing with trends nationwide. Applications were up by 450 per cent over last year. Dean Frankino attributed this increase to the identification of law by graduates as a preferred profession in which they can work effec- tively in the system for social change.

IMursing department gains college status Creighton increased the number of divisions within the university to eight by elevating the Department of Nursing to college status this year. The nursing department was one of the largest divisions in the College of Arts and Sciences and admin- istrators felt the program ' s needs would be better served as a separate school. Dr. Robert Heaney, vice president for Health Sciences, felt the change was necessary for the nursing program to maintain equality with the other health care schools. An immediate enrollment increase was expected due to the closing of the school of nursing at St. Joseph ' s Hospital this year. Long range plans call for the development of a more versatile program which will eventually grant associate and masters degrees. Most immediate plans, according to acting dean Mrs. Abby Heydman, are the search for a dean and the identification of the students as a special group within the university.

Student nurses serve the city 223 All kinds of sports for all seasons Sports on the Creighton campus ranged from Blue- jay basketball to quadrangle frisbeeing and from rough, tough rugby to a nice, quiet game of bridge in the student center. Everybody got involved, male and female, gradu- ate and undergraduate, and they all had one thought in mind — get out and have a good time. The fun started in the fall v ith intramural foot- ball and cross country leading the way, with an occa- sional bike race or volleyball match thrown in. The freezing cold of winter sent students indoors and set them dancing to the beat of bouncing basket- balls. From December to March, basketball was king of the mountain, or rather Hilltop. The Creighton gym was filled with cagers round the clock, as everybody tried to get a piece of the action. Down at the Civic Auditorium, the varsity Bluejays hopped, skipped and jumped to a flashy 12-1 home record, that left people eagerly anticipating next year. With the end of basketball, came spring and its many sports. This year ' s agenda included golf, tennis and rugby. For tennis, it was welcome back after a one-year absence, and for rugby it was welcome aboard as it began its first year on the Bluejay campus. The great variety of sports gave nobody an excuse for being bored, much less out of shape. 226 jfcsi . . i-1 : 227 Brosnihan named to athletic post Some new faces were seen in the athletic depart- ment in 1971-72. New face No. 1 belonged to former Creighton Prep basketball coach Tom Brosnihan, who assumed the title of promotion director in charge of ticket sales. Along with this duty, Broz assisted Eddie Sutton and Tom Apke with the varsity basketball chores. Meanwhile, former Bluejay cagers Jocko Ilcisin, Mike Caruso and Dan Thornton replaced Bob Gottlieb as coaches of the freshman team and expertly guided the Baby Blues to a record-setting 17-1 record. Gottlieb found himself employment as an assistant coach at Kansas State. In another change, Dave Baker replaced Larry Cochell as head baseball coach, after Cochell took a similar position at California State in Los Angeles. Baker had formerly been Cochell ' s assistant at Creighton. Besides their basketball jobs, Caruso and Thornton also moonlighted as golf and track coaches, respec- tively. Caruso replaced the Rev. John Holbrook, S.J. as golf coach, and Thornton coached the new tennis team, which got together again after a year ' s lapse. The busy Thornton became a three-sport man by handling the cross country team. Dan Offenburger remained as sports information director, and Baker controlled intramurals with the assistance of Bus Ad senior George Winn.

Before the season even started, Sutton put the second guessers right to work by cutting Bluejay vet- erans Pat Bresnahan, Paul Fesco and Bill Manning. This manuever stripped the Bluejays to a 10-man team, wrhich included seven sophomores and three juniors. With a rugged 26-game schedule featuring eight rated teams looming ahead, things didn ' t look so good. Hovi ever, ' this team had one thing in abundance that the previous tw o Sutton teams didn ' t have — spirit. All these players were players Sutton himself had recruited, and they dedicated themselves to Sutton 100 per cent. The result was a suprising 15-11 record, and a future as bright as a Nebraska sunset. In the days of Cyril Baptiste, the Bluejays had employed a slow, deliberate style of basketball. This year they brought out the track shoes and did some running. With veteran Al Lewis and sophomore Ralph Bobik keying the fast break, the Bluejays cracked the 100- point mark six times. Meanwhile, sophomore sensa- tions. Gene Harmon and Ted Wuebben flexed their muscles underneath. The inexperienced 10 turned a rebuilding year into a year of promise and excitement. Ted Wuebben demonstrates some tough, belly button ' defense that characterized the Bluejays. Gene Harmon (above) drives through the lane for lay-up against Notre Dame.

After all superstar 6-9 Cyril Baptiste had quit school and gone home to Florida. Starters Mike Caruso, John Taylor and Dennis Bresnahan were lost to graduation, and all Eddie Sutton had left were 10 underclassmen with almost no experience. No doubt about it, 1971-72 would be a rebuilding year. A time for the youthful Bluejays to gain experi- ence and poise for future years. Creighton opened the season against Wisconsin State (Oshkosh) with a ho-hum 74-62 win, and few could have been impressed. Homecoming night, however, the Jays came out with guns a-blazin ' and socked Big Sky favorite Montana State, with a 101-78 punch. Gene EUefson was hottest of the hot with 24 points. The Jays made it three straight against Idaho State, but they had yet to leave the friendly town of Omaha. Next stop was Provo, Utah and the mighty Cougars of Brigham Young. The Jays were out of their class as Kresimir Cosic Co. humbled them, 96-68. Two days later, Manhattan, Kan., proved just as unfriendly as Kansas State thumped the Jays, 90-68.

IMew Mexico meet heats up Christmas Creighton ' s next four Rames were on the road, with the first two down in warm Albuquerque, N.M., in the New Mexico University Tournament. The Jays opened against highly-touted St. John ' s (N.Y.), and the Redmen lost none of their esteem as they dealt the Jays a 94-73 defeat. In the consolation game the Jays whipped Texas A M, and Ralph Bobik was named to the all-tourney team. Ohio was the next stop on the Jays itinerary. Oppo- sition was furnished by defending Big Ten champion and nationally-rated. Ohio State. The Buckeyes, led by Allan Hornyak, came from behind in the second half and bounced Creighton by a 94-76 count. In Cleveland three days later, the Jays ripped Cleveland State, 92-59, to break even on the road trip. Back home in frigid Omaha, the Bluejays over- powered San Diego University. Then, it was back to the road and back to the loss column. Southern Illinois and Tulsa did the honors this time. With students back from Christmas break, little- known MacMurray came to Omaha to take on the reel- ing Bluejays. Gene Harmon poured in 32 points and the Jays won big, 107-59. The Cowboys of Wyoming were on tab next, and they roughed up the Bluejays on their home range, 76-65. The road-weary Creighton team headed back to the Big O for a five-game home stand. Small colleges. Regis and St. Thomas, went down after tough fights, then North Texas State of the Missouri Valley Con- ference became the Jays ' biggest victim of the season in a low-scoring 58-49 affair. With three straight wins under their young belts, the Jays stood 11-7 and primed for big shot Jacksonville.

Gene Harmon and Marc Mirsky, with 17 points apiece, were leaders of the ambush. The Jays streaked to a 40-32 lead at half, then held off a second half Dolphin rally for an ego-boosting 71-66 win. It was Creighton ' s tenth straight win at home, and confidence was spreading like the Hong Kong flu. St. Bonaventure ' s Indians were on the docket to be home-victim No. 11, but somebody forgot to tell them. The Bonnies roared to a quick 15-6 lead, stretched it to 38-26 at the half, then put it in third and coasted home to an easy 88-73 victory. Unable to break the St. Bonaventure 3-2 zone defense with outside shooting, the Jays were never in the game. The Bluejays ' bubble had burst. Lurking ahead was another giant — Marquette, proud possessor of a 21-0 record and a No. 2 rating. Before the Warriors, however, the Jays polished off the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee in an 87-68 fashion, and the stage was set. The Warriors were minus their All-America center, 6-11 Jim Chones, who had just signed a pro contract, but it was their final home game and they were deter- mined to bow out winners. The Jays had other thoughts on the matter and sent Marquette sprawling to a 37-27 deficit with 1:12 left in the first half. It was too good to be true, however, as the Warriors hit six straight to make it 37-33 at halftime. The second half was all Marquette and the War- riors perfected their home season by a 70-61 margin. The loss left the Creighton record at 13-9, and the sea- son was rapidly coming to a close.

Neither team proved to be any prob- lem for the fast-improving Bluejays. In a game that didn ' t count on their record, the lays whalloped the AIA, 107-85. while the Fighting Irish were even easier, 104-77, in probably the Jays ' finest game of the year. Creighton ' s final road trip of the year took them to the East Coast to play South Carolina and St. Francis (Pa.). The Gamecocks of South Carolina boasted the No. 7 ranking in the country, and they made believers out of the Bluejays, 81-64. It was the same old story at St. Francis as the Frankies beat the Jays by 1 1 points to wind up Creigh- ton ' s road record at 3-10. In the grand finale, hard-working Ted Wuebben poured in 28 points and picked off 21 rebounds as the lays administered revenge on Southern Illinois, 100-88. The triumph climaxed a 15-1! season, including a 12-1 home record, and left you thinking the best was yet to come.

All eyes are on the ball as it heads out of bounds after a rebound skirmish. Freshmen compile best record ever There were five of ttiem on scholarship. They came from Indiana, New Jersey. Mississippi, Pennsyl- vania and Nebraska. Together they compiled the best freshman record ever at Creighton — 17-1. Head Frosh Coach Jocko Ilcisin, with the assist- ance of Mike Caruso and Dan Thornton, directed the Baby Jays to wins over frosh teams from Drake, Iowa, UNO and South Dakota. The only loss came on the road at Iowa State by one point. All five starters averaged in double figures, led by 6-8 Doug Brookins ' 20.1 clip. Wayne Groves came next with 17.3, followed by Dave Terek at 15.4, Charles Butler (14.3) and Tom Anderson (10.8). These five freshmen plus the 10 returning varsity cagers should add up to much future success for Eddie Sutton ' s Creighton Bluejays. 243 m i miasm r - m w  -- 38 games slated for baseball Jays Bluejay baseball was under the first year direction of Dave Baker, who took over from Larry Cochell after serving as Cochell ' s assistant last year. Baker ' s first edition included 16 lettermen, four freshmen and six junior college transfers, who will try to improve on last year ' s 24-21 record. The 38-game schedule included such teams as Kansas State, Oral Roberts, Texas Christian, Air Force and Iowa on the road, with St. Louis, Arkansas, Denver and Iowa State spicing the home schedule. The lays ' first game against John F. Kennedy Col- lege ended in a 3-3 tie after 11 innings when rain forced its postponement.

Tennis used to be a varsity sport, but was dropped last year for lack of interest. Interest returned this year, and so did the tennis team with Dan Thornton as its coach. In one of its top matches, the team was scheduled to play Tulsa University in Tulsa, Okla., over Easter vacation. Rugby made its debut as a club sport under the organization of Mark Thornhill. The rugged sport fea- tures hearty postgame drinking by members of both teams, as they try to forget all their bumps and bruises.

The Military Science Department supplied the coach and part of the equipment, while the Adminis- tration took care of the remaining finances. This year ' s team of both men and women was coached by Sgt. Lewis Larry. Top marksmen were Jeff Coen, Chuck Brooks, Dewey Conces, Pat Turner and Chris Berwanger. Highlight of the year was a seven-team invitational tournament held at Creighton in October. Sgt. Lewis Larry (left) and Sgt. Donald Clark shared the job of coaching the rifle team. f lrs.

Ahhough basketball and football predominated, new sports like paddle ball, wrestling, badminton and volleyball also drew many participants. The program was once again directed by Dave Baker, who was assisted this year by senior George Winn. Women were much more involved in intramurals this year as 12 sports were open to them, led by basket- ball and Softball.

IM football title captured by Dents Intramural football could be described as the roughest of Creighton intramural sports. From Septem- ber to November, 29 teams went to battle at Kellom and Gifford fields. When it was all over, the Dents, champions of the Professional League, emerged as all-university champ- ions. They did it by beating the season-long No. 1 team. Delta Sigma Pi, in the final. The score of the game was 28-27 with the Dents scoring the winning touchdown and extra point with only 29 seconds left in the game. Other top teams included And, SHC and Phi Psi I. For the first time ever, an all-star game between Undergraduate and Fraternity League players and Professional League players was held after the tournament. 256 Delta Sig ' s II Nick Boggy tries to drive baseline but is blocked by SAE ' s Kevin Scott. Basketball features 54 team entries Intramural basketball was the most popular intra- mural sport as 540 students took part in the action. Competition was divided into six leagues with 54 teams involved. An early-season victory over the SHC powered the Animal Crackers to the No. 1 spot in the university. As tournament time neared, Doederlein Flora, Tri-Smegs, Jive Five, Delta Sigma Pi, Animal Crackers and SAE I appeared headed for league titles.

The expansion of the board has helped to interpret the university to the community and the community to the university. The board acts much as w ould any large corporate board. It is primarily concerned w ith governing the financial operation of the school and leaves most opera- tional aspects to the president and vice presidents. Five committees of the board meet monthly and report at the monthly meetings of the full board. They are the Business and Finance Committee; Development and Community Relations Committee; Student Affairs Committee and the Health Affairs Committee. A. F.

The placement office is always a good place to start the search. The office acts as a clearing house for full and part time job opportunities available to Creighton students and graduates. Leo Pieper, placement director, and assistant Jerry Adamek line up interviews on campus each year and keep track of job opportunities submitted by prospec- tive employers. They also keep in touch with alumni and various friends of the university — many job opportunities come to light through these contacts. Although there are always many more applicants than available jobs the placement office personnel con- stantly work to provide a greater per centage with positions. Veronica Kenney has helped countless students and graduates find full and part time work. Thousands of booklets are available at the placement office which describe career and lob opportunities. Jerry Adamek, assistant director of student and graduate placement, keeps tabs on available jobs. I atliolo|ri!iit,7 mm., 1 THE R FIRST JOBS AFTER COLLEGE 100 7 l.r S.,.,,.taiy ' « | I iiT att -e Bernie Conway Alumni Director Chuck Maxwell visits with 1969 graduate Bob Portman in the course of one of his many visits to alumni chapters. 65 chapters serve to inform alumni Very few Creighton students ever visit one office on campus, but after they graduate this office will be the only contact many of them have with the university. The Alumni office, headed by Alumni Director Bernie Conway and assistant Chuck Maxwell, is service orientated. Its goal is to help Creighton graduates in any way possible. Sixty-five alumni chapters are organized through- out the country to serve the more than 20,000 Creighton alumni. A representative of the alumni office visits each of the chapters yearly to update alumni on their alma mater. Since approximately 35 per cent of Creighton ' s graduates are still in the Omaha area, the office plans a number of activities for them. Annual events include the alumni picnic, the homecoming party and the Thanksgiving Mass and breakfast. Alumni are represented by the Alumni Council which meets monthly to direct the activities of the Alumni Association. Each school and college elects its own representatives to the council. 295 Steve Letter gets a point across as ttie board discusses current campus racial tensions. Board undertakes varied activities The 1971-1972 edition of the Student Board of Gov- ernors got into a variety of activities and issues. A ques- tioning of budget procedures and a discussion of racial problems on campus were two of the headliners. Early in the year a group of board members headed by Rufus Whitley moved to stop all board spending until a formal budget was presented. Treasurer Pat Kennison stated that no figures had been received from the busi- ness office and that he could not present what he did not have. The issue was resolved at the next meeting with the presentation and eventual adoption of the budget. The regular Nov. 14 meeting was set aside for a dis- cussion of racial problems after a week of tension and minor incidents. Black students contended that all the university activities were geared excusively toward the white students with blacks forced to seek enter- tainment off campus. Student board treasurer Pat Kennison wants to present tiis side of thie budget issue. 296 At the Nov. 14 meeting board members heard a number of black students air their attitudes. Board members Tom Schwab debt] and Bill Cook care- fully examine the requests for funds. 297 Student Board of Governors Executive Board F.

You ' re just a bunch of ignorant kids full of the devil and you ' ve learned practically nothing to show for the four years you spent here. You can ' t fool me, because I once spent four years in just such a place. So said Clarence Darrow, the legendary trial lawryer to a 1918 high school graduating class. One student said it was the only good sense I have heard in months. Although more students will be graduated from Creighton this year, far few er will don the academic trappings and listen to less sensible rhetoric from Dar- row ' s successors on the commencement speaking circuit. The traditional mid-year and summer commence- ment ceremonies were dropped. Now only spring gradu- ates don the mortarboard for the old college send-off. Rev. Thomas McKenney, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, calls the names of the graduates. The sea of varied academic gowns provides an interest- ing backdrop to the graduation exercise. 302 Father Labaj, assisted by Jack Williams, university regis- trar, hands out the diplomas.

Down a hallway; behind a steering wheel; onto a bus, up a ramp. Down the highway : a way of life now. If you want to hold onto this time, what can you do? Pin it with a rational argument? Dissolve it in a rush of joy and bottle it? Don ' t even try. ' Ten years from now you ' ll be wearing a different kind of shirt and drinking or smok- ing a different Intoxicant and have more places and people behind you than you can list. You ' ll have to let it happen, no turning back. You ' ll be thinking, Boy, wasn ' t I dumb way back when ... And ten years later you ' ll be thinking, Boy, wasn ' t I dumb ten years ago. And on, and on. But don ' t be too sure that college friendships and parties and learning will disappear when everything you do seems a prelude to another leaving. There are some things you can ' t shuck off. The body replaces all its cells every few years and starts over, but the soul doesn ' t. Yellowing and tattered on the walls of that elusive life-spirit will hang the mem- ories of the young-time, the first time through, the basic training for that first leaving. 351 352 Some things you can ' t shuck off 353 354 You have to let it happen 355 Is there life after graduation? Leaving a place which has been both hell and a hell of a lot of fun leaves a certain feeling, like seeing the morning after stay- ing up all night. People stay awake all night doing a variety of things: playing poker, talking, get- ting lost in the realms of calculus, getting drunk, or whatever. A man named Marlow once told a story all night and by morning the main character had played out his string and been shot for a mistake in judgment. So it goes. In the movies, a sleepless night usually translates into a bedside vigil. In the morning the doctor comes in and says, The patient is breathing easier, or somesuch. In real life, the morning usually comes less dramatically. You look out the window and see the cars sleeping in rows along the streets; somebody has rubbed the air with a wet cloth and a few birds are twittering. All the panic and turmoil of the darkness is gone. The freshness of the day is ahead. Does life exist after graduation? Yes. 356 357 - ■■■e.-u index Abraham, Donna 304 Abraham, Marylynn 304 Adamek, Jerry 302 Ahern, Edward 206 Ailabouni. Souheil 304 Aimen, Jude 167 Alba, Carmen 268 Albers, Robert 304 Alexander.

A - ; 7 ?e memories for which these pages are the touchstone may be less than lasting in an age of mobility, turmoil and imperman- ence: your recollections may fade; faces that once delighted you with their kaleido- scope of moods may quickly become fuzzy and indistinct; quotations that first fired in you a confidence in human insight may fade into a tarnished quaintness; and this book may be left for the dust. This is the end of a book, the end of a year, the end of a certain kind of life. It is a leaving. And, God knows, there are many leavings ahead. In America, leaving is some- thing of a way of life. Books traditionally have a good record for remembrance. The people are here. Some of the pain and joy is here. There may be a time when the road ahead is not enough. And so, this book is a promise: you can always come back, if you wish. 4- J . t, r. .. -•■ r ...,-■•■ V ... • V. ' ., ' -v ■:• ' ••• . y. : If ' ; ' . ■ ' ' ■■ f ' . r - .-  ■ V ' , ' p ' t ' .
