UBLIC RELATIONS Kevin O ' Brien, Publicity Director Public Relatitms Office Staff 26 Arthur J. Schaefer, Director of Public Relations The job of selling De Paul to Chicago is the primary object of the Public Relations Office, and with this in mind it was felt that a location on the fifth floor of the downtown campus would facilitate the duties of this department. So in mid- January the entire staff left the Administration Building on the North Side Campus and began operations at 64 E. Lake Street. This year has seen a wider distribution of the publication De Paul — the University News Magazine. Current students were added to the list of recipients which formerly included only alumni and interested subscribers. Under the capable supervision of Arthur J. Schaefer, Direc- tor of Public Relations, the office has been able to fill its assign- ments which fall under the headings of general and sports publicity, student recruitment, advertising and other promo- tional literature, alumni-fund assistance and miscellaneous services. Publicity director Kevin O ' Brien has taken on a new assistant, Tobert Cassurella. Josephine Boyle is continuing in her job as secretary. With the combined efforts of a small public relations staff, De Paul University is becoming better known to not only Clii- cagoans, but to people from coast to coast.

w r . ■ Officers of De Paul University ' s Alumni Association THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION With the encouragement received from alumni last year, the Alumni Association this year was able to set even higher goals in obtaining funds for the erection of a fieldhouse. The alumni office, now located on the fifth floor of the downtown building, was the point from which all student and alumni fund-raising drives were directed. Serving in his second year as alumni coordinator is the Rev. Thomas A. Mahoncy, CM. He was assisted in all efforts by his staff, Kay Crowley and Mary Canino. Serving in their second year on the alumni board of governors are John [■ Sullivan (Law ' 36) , Walter J. Madigan (Com. ' 28) vice-president; Oliva Cox (Arts ' 26) treasurer; and Helen Nichin Murray (Arts ' 35) secretary. Another important function of this office is to send to all alumni at graduation and periodically thereafter, question- naires which give an indication of the progress made by DePaulites after leaving school. Thus, when the student re- ceives his degree he knows that De Paid does not lose interest in him. Reverend Thomas A. Mahoney, CM., Alumni Coordinator 27
