LOl’IS J. HITLER, LL.B. The head of the business law department has the distinction of being one of the first two lay members of the faculty, having joined the staff in 1940. Combining a suc- cessful law practice in New Rochelle with his teaching duties at the College, the versatile Mr. Hitler has won the respect and admiration of all who have known him. BRO. WILLIAM B. CORNELIA, Ph D. A familiar figure around the campus is the indomitable founder and first president of Iona College. With grace and compe- tence he will move into classes in the sciences, modern language, history and re- ligion. while after school hours he may be seen in the midst of a skeptical group of students pointing out to them the merits of the New York Giants. BRO. RICHARD B. POWER, M.S. A happy combination of intellectual and athletic prowess have earned for Brother Power the twofold distinction of professor of biology and athletic director at Iona College. Whether in the classroom or on the athletic field he supplements these talents with that “sine qua non” of the good teacher—an ever-ready sense of humor. DANIEL J. O’CONNELL, B.A. Daniel J. O'Connell, Iona’s competent Instructor in History received his B.A. Degree at St. Josephs' in New York. Having completed two years Post Gradu- ate work at St. Josephs', he took his first teaching position at La Salle Academy, New York City. He joined Iona’s staff in February 1946 and is now completing work on his Master's Degree in History at Ford- ham University. BRO. WILLIAM H. BARNES. D.Litt. Fortunate, indeed, has Iona College been in winning the services of Brother Barnes. His extensive teaching experience in the Brothers’ schools in Ireland and Rome, to- gether with his degrees from the National University in Ireland and the Royal Uni- versity in Rome have equipped him admir- ably to assume the headship of our English department last fall. HENRY M. RYAN, C.P.A. An enviable wealth of practical experience in the fields of business and government service, years of classroom in- structing. ability to organize, and the capacity to make friends within and with- out the school make Mr. Ryan an invalu- able asset to the faculty and student body of the college. Our prospective C.P.A.'s can credit him for bringing their objective nearer to realization.

 rfctivitied. , , , The various clubs and organizations afford an outlet for student expression. Most students manage to hook up with at least one or- ganization. Some hold back, however, either through indifference or the necessity of earning money to stay in school. There are some students, though, and these are generally the leaders, who manage to become involved in three or more activities in the belief that this phase of college life offers as much as actual classwork.
