Dedication “ . . . the theater is a scale whereon are weighed not only the interpreters of ideas, but the very ideas themselves—the values in printed patterns of behavior, the hidden experiences, the sug- gested designs for living, the worth of hidden notions . . . Out of all this raw material must be manufactured a product which spectators can bear away with them for their present diversion and their future good.” FRANK J. WIESS AM. I f the University, in the words of our President, is “. the arena in which the willing student meets the able teacher in appropriate surroundings Professor Frank J. Wiess has made of his classroom an intellectual theater in which he weighs and interprets the ideas of man, scrutinizing his foibles, mocking his pretensions, applauding his eminences. In composition or in literature, in poetry or in drama, his saber- swift, stiletto-sharp analyses of the written word have a single, unswerving purpose: the formation of students with sharpened rhetorical skills, sensitized literary appetites, refined artistic tastes. Chiding sometimes, whimsical often, patient always, he surrounds his students with diversion for their present encouragement, en- lightenment for their future good. For twenty-three years Professor Wiess has commuted to Carroll from his home in Parma. In all that time “Senator” Wiess, as his colleagues call him, never has lost his temper, never has lifted his voice in expostulation or argument, never has lost the scholarly The two deans of the Department of English, professors Aloysius A. Bungart and Frank J. Wiess, exchange remi- niscences. Colleagues and comrades for more than two decades, the two expect to continue their companionship despite Professor Bungart’s retirement in June after 40 years in John Carroll classrooms. —Frank J. Wiess “The Vitalizing Force in the Theater” dignity which fits him like a toga. Indeed he is so soft-spoken that his words tiptoe on down-shod feet. Shelley had in mind such a man as Professor Wiess when he wrote: “ that content surpassing wealth The sage in contemplation found, and walked with inner glory crowned . . . »? A charter member of the Ohio Catholic Poetry Society, Professor Wiess is a poet in his own right, singing, like the lover in Twelfth Night, high or low as occasion offers. In the precious moments he can steal from his beloved books, Professor Wiess is a horticulturist, raising flowers, vegetables, and herbs. In the last he is a national authority. From anise to woodruff he knows their culinary virtues and uses them to create a hundred mouth-watering salads and dishes. The staff is extremely proud to dedicate the 1959 edition of the Carillon to Professor Frank J. Wiess: bard, gentleman, scholar. ars ————————————S
