' 1 1-- ' I Q 5 5 ILJ 1: ' I 'X 4, .4 ., v. x Not so long ago. yes, it seems only yes- terday, a group of awe-striken young men started on their high school career at our beloved Loras Academy. Cn a beautiful autumn morning. September 15th, to be exact, high school life became a reality for the Freshman Class of 1943. We felt strangely alone and in' a completely different world. llut these 101 Catholic youths mak- ing up our class soon overcame their shyness and started on a course of prep studies which would place this class among the best to walk these halls. 'llhroughout the year our youthful class not only placed one outstanding player, Gene ternes, on the basketball squad and Jack New, Dick Ellis, and Bill Conrardy, on the gridiron team which won the City Champion- ship, but also gave a good showing of itself among the select few on the Honor Roll. Also our intramural football team copped the championship in its league. Likewise in all other functions, such as the literary contests and Crest staff, delegates of the class were sure to be found. After a much needed summer vacation our group-with some new faces--returned to these hallowed halls and took on the role of Sophisticated Sophs. But something new was in store for us at the beginning of this, our second Academic year. Yes, without too much ado, we donned the khaki uniforms and stepped into the ranks of the R.O.T.C. for the first time. Responding to the chal- lenge of more difficult studies, our class as a whole really dug in and climbed right up that ladder of success, the Honor Roll. Again the list of achievements grew. This year witnessed the inauguration of our enter- taining and educational auditorium program. NVhen our predecessors came into the role of Seniors, we Juniors first realized how fast time was Hying. Sensing our po- sitions as upper classmen, we went right to work to preserve the traditions of the Junior Classes before us, and, if possible, to rise to new heights. During our third Academic year, we as a class took part in all sports activities. lfVe placed many outstanding men on the football, basketball, track, boxing, golf, and rifie teams, who contributed much to the successful season each sport had. But one accomplishment of our junior class of '46 stands out as unique-we were the first to select and order our class rings. By the process of elimination it was decided that a beautiful gold ring with a rose gold setting and the traditional coat of arms of Loras Academy with crossed sabres would best suit the desires of the class of '47. Due to the size of the student body at old L. A., it has been the custom for only juniors and Seniors to make the annual re- treat. So on March 6, our cares were put aside and the next three days saw us all en- folded in silence and meditation. This re- treat, our first as a class, was conducted by Rev. Francis Brady, from it numerous bene- fits were reaped by all. 3 QHLSS of Various other events seemed to hurry the passing days. Soon june and the gradu- ation of the '46 class terminated our high school days as Juniors. Responsibility and hard work boomed for our Senior year. Extra-curricular activities played such a part in our lives as Seniors that much diligence had to be shown to keep up with our studies. VVe had a good football team in spite of the records and our versatile center Jack New captained the team through the rugged sea- son. The basketball genius of our class, Gene Ternes, by name, led the cagers through their schedule and put on an excellent show- ing. While the '47 track team of Loras Academy, pounding the cinders under the guidance of Bill Conrardy and Bill Rigney, also represented the school colors well. As usual this year the retreat began Lent for the Juniors and Seniors and our own Father Luby was excellent in his role as re- treat master. Doubtless this spiritual stimu- lant was of the greatest benefit to all. As our eighth academic semester rolled around, it was found that six of our seniors had placed on the Honor Roll at each of those half years. Including john Friedell, Don Dupont, Gene Ternes, Louis Bray, Nick Schrup, and Ed De Fontaine, this group will surely go far to uphold the laurels of the Class of '47, One of the biggest events on this roster was the annual Military Ball. This delightful dance was held on January 17 , and proved to be a red letter day for all. It was presided over by Don Dupont, the Battalion Com- mander. The music was furnished by a very popular band, George Olsen and the final strains of the National Anthem terminated the last social event of the R.O.T.C. As winter passed and was replaced by spring, the Log of '47 was rapidly taking shape. VVork was begun after the Christmas holidays, and under the competent direction of Father Guter, the staff, headed by Charlie Serene and John Friedell, made great pro- gress in obtaining pictures, writing copy, planning the book. and, last but not least, in procuring financial backing. Now as we near commencement, the graduates of '47 realize only too well that our cherished days at Loras Academy are numbered. The class of '48 we ask to Strive for the high ideals so characteristic of the student bodies of Loras. We the class of '47 carry these traits with us into life, and we hope our successors will do an even better job of fashioning their lives into true Loras Men. Now, during the last few days, as we look back over our years at Loras, for the Hrst time it is realized that soon we must depart from our old Alma Mater with its spacious campus, its lofty spire, and its roll- ing hills. Though the actual days be over, fond remembrances will linger always. 'S r f- ,O Wh0,S WMU in ?47 There are many silent inHuences that help shape the pleasant atmosphere Of school life and among these is the ex- ample given hy Our classmates. Often these virtues are noticed hut unmentioned Or unrewarcled, and SO the Log has taken a poll among the students and the faculty to End the seniors that rank high in study and Other virtues. lfvliyiwl JOHN FRIEnEl,r, ' DONALD DUPONT JOSEPH BEHR Erigflfxlz MAURICE MAYER QUENTIN CASE NICK SCHRUP lfcuzzmzliuv COLE M1Kl'Df7NAI,Il JOSEPH O'1 r Lows BRAY jHtIffIl'lIItIfll'A' GENE TERNES QUENTIN CASE PAT CRIMES Latin JOHN FRII2IlIiI,l.

VVith an early start to its credit the team was organized under the guidance of Rev. justin A. Driscoll. The subject which the team has been laboring under is Socialized Medicine. This is the topic assigned all high schools by the National Forensic League for this school year. The first team is composed of james Chap- man, Don Holscher, john McCoy and Roger Ott. Rounding out the squad as reserves are the following: John Mclntyre, Edward J. DeFontaine, Ed NVelu, James Maloney, john Guise, and XVilliam Gorski. These men have done well in formulating their arguments both pro and con to defend our school in the field of debate. The first test was made on lfebruary 13, when the affirmative team met up with tlie Senior High squad at Senior. Although no de- cision was given, the team did very well. On March 8, the team participated in the distrfct meet at Manchester and came out on topg they then advanced to the State meet at Iowa City on April 10, where they competed with the 19 best teams in the State. Other debates on the schedule incfude a return match with Senior . 0 . . lzl-1-gh, and fwo matches with Campion.

VVith the expert advice and cooper- ation of the engraver and printer many technical difficulties were conquered and the work forged rapidly ahead. The covers were finished by the middle of April, and the presses began to roll about the first of May. Special credit should go to the Art Staff under the direction of Vernon Casey. whose designs and illustrations made a vast improvement in the book. Also recognition must be given the Business Staff headed by joe Behr, without whose initiative and salesmanship publication of the Log would not have been possible. 'lille staff would like to thank too, Monsignor Gannon and Father lliskup for their advice and cooperation in the business affairs and in the art work, liather Striegel for his assistance in photography, and Father Weimer for his aid in composition.

JUST OFF THE PRESS MIDNIGHT SESSION The Crest The Crest, student-published chronicle and newspaper, started off the year with an entirely new staff that was headed by Patrick Redclin, a junior. Though he had not a veteran journalist to work with, Father Joseph Kirk, faculty moderator, came through with a respectable organization that kept the student body and alumni well informed on the many phases of school life at Loras Academy. Mr. Editor Reddin supervised assignments, the make-up work, and the business end of the publication, also writing the front page and all editorial work. Don Hess, james Bridgeman and Cole McDonald were those all- important feature writers who add the human interest to a paper, while the sports section was very creditably handled by .lim Chapman and john McCoy. Presiding over all of course, was Father Kirk who supplied the technical and editorial knowledge that the enthusiastic but green staff at first lacked. Once again the Crest proved itself a solid training and testing ground for aspirant journalists, and simultaneously provided the Academy with a first-hand report on all school functions and activities.

For the benefit of the readers of the Log we shall now give a brief sketch of The Propagation of the Faith Socic-ty at l.oras .Xcademy. In September, 1946, Monsignor john Vtlolfe, the Diocesan Director, appointed Father Robert Saunders to succeed liather L'rbau Churchill as the head of the Loras Academy Board of Strategy for Propagation of the lfaith activities. Paid-up memberships, supervised and motivated by the teachers of re- ligion in their classes, is the principle source of accumulating funds. Venders of refreshments at football games, of Sunday papers, and oc- casional ratlies offer added contributions. 'l'he over-all amount aggregated from September, 1946 to April 20, 1947, is 321,043.26 Of this amount 58214.43 was ticketed for the Bishops Relief. liather Saunder's tive classes alone gave 3109.24 to the Bishops Relief. 'llhe Senior religion classes turned in 3156.75 in membership dues, thus setting a pace that, they hope, the other classes will follow. No detailed account of the prayers offered by the members is available, but the numerous sacrifices, rosaries, and Masses of the students, no doubt, have given spiritual assistance to zealous workers in the mission fields. 4-A RELIGION Top Row: DeLuca, Earle, Friedell, Hogan, Dempsey, DcFontaine.

It is the opportunity we students have of strengthen- ing ourselves spiritually and morally. The retreat was conducted by the Rev. Sylvester R. Luby of the College faculty. Father Luby was already familiar to many of the students as he has been associated with the Academ ' and Colleffe for the rast nineteen 'ears as 5 The retreat be0'an on Ash VVednesda ' eveninff, Februar ' 19, at 7 130 P.

During the course of the retreat there were thirteen conferences in all, on various phases of our religious life and it's relation to our social life, also there were three Masses, three Bene- dictions, a way of the Cross, and Confessions. All these activities were very heartil ' Jartici rated in b ' our uniors and Seniors and even a few Freshmen 3 1 5 and Sophomores. Pamphlets and books on religious subjects were placed at the disposal of the students in the Library and Study Hall by Father Striegel. These were read between conferences and before and after school by all the students. All indications seem to show that this year's junior-Senior Retreat was a great success both spiritually and socially as was in keeping with the spirit of the Academy.

Glee Clluli Among the many new activities and organizations instigated this year, the one that has the most to offer in cultural development and lasting personal value and satisfaction is the Glee Club. For it proved to be a well-organized group that reveled in good fellowship, expressed in song and effort, and its effects. no doubt, will be felt and remembered by the twenty-six participants for years to come. The Reverend Albert Carman organized the group at the beginning of the second semester, original work being along the line of Gregorian chant. ,Xs the chorus developed ten members were selected to represent the Academy in the :Xll-State Catholic Choir and Chorus which held a two-day festival in Des Moines late in April. 'llhe vocalizers also sang at various chapel functions later in the term. Ground work was being laid in May for a program to be presented next year that will center around the works of Herbert and other ,Xmerican composers. It is hoped that this group will be the beginning of an organization that will have a hallowed spot in Loras life in years to come.

Over fifty students responded eagerly and chose jim Chapman as president, Roger Qtt as vice-president, Tom Schwinn as secretary, and Don llolscher as treasurer. It was decided that all the ofhcers selected would be chosen from the Junior class and remain in office throughout the next year. The purpose of the club is to promote and encourage all phases of photography at the Academy. 'llhis includes teaching the member how to take good pictures, how to develop and print them, how to do enlarging and tinting. and how to Find the answers to the myriad questions that loom in the mind of an amateur photographer.

Chaperones for the evening included: Capt. and Mrs. Dwight Bonham, Mr. and Mrs. Gailen '1'homas, Mr. and Mrs. Mel Nicks, Mr. and Mrs. XVillian1 Rahe, Miss Lucille Hanssmith and 'lohn O'Connell.

Varsity lifoottlhallll The lyoras Academy Ouhs of 1946 may he considered, hy those who look only at the won and lost side of a schedule as having heen a poor team. Hut that isn't the thought of any- one at Loras Academy, coaches, players or students. The Guhs should he a team to he proud of this year and here are a few reasons Why. HOXV DOES IT LOOK COACH? The '46 Guhs met five or six of the most powerful teams in this part of the country. A numher of spectators did not realize, that, of the eight teams that the Golden Gubs met this year, seven of them were undefeated when they took the field against the Purple and Gold. Heading the list of our undefeated op- ponents this year was Fort Dodge, 1945, power- house of Iowa: Edgewood of Madison, called hy one sports editor, one of the most powerful high school teams in the country. Edgewood, at the time of their encounter with the Academy was undefeated, not only for the 1946 season, hut for the 1945 season, and the 1944 season and part of the 1943 season. The next of the Gubs worthy opponents was Aquinas of La Crosse, which had one of the hest teams in the schools history. Campion Academy, of Prairie Du Chien, was the host to Loras in their next game. Campion, always a hitter rival, was undefeated over two seasons, hut, in this game the Gubs showed their true form and came from behind in the last quarter to defeat their highly favored opponent, 13 to 6. ln this game the Gubs were sparked by the steady play of Serene and Gal- lardo in the hackfield and the superb! offensive and defensive play of john Grathwol and Bill Rigney in the line. Page Sf I'!'l1fj' JUST PRACTICING Another of the harder games was fought on Loras' gridiron, under a hot sun, when the Golden Gubs met the Cadets of St. john Mili- tary Academy of Delafield, Wisconsin. The Cadets continued their jinx over Loras Aca- demy football teams by taking a heart breaker 13 to 12 when the Gubs missed two extra point conversions. At this time the centennial celebration of Iowa was well celebrated by Dubuque football fans as the Golden Gubs handed the Clinton Lions their first and only defeat of the sea- son to the tune of 19 to 14. Jack Riley and Dick Ellis played great defensive football for the Academy, while Charley Crazy Legs Serene, living up to his name as the scat-back, ran Clinton ragged all afternoon, scoring one touchdown and setting up Gallardo's plunge for another. Against St. Ambrose, an ancient rival who was driving hard for the lowa Catholic High School crown, the Gubs played a better brand of ball than the Knights all the way, but, in the end, with time and luck on their side. Ambrose wound up on the right end of a 12 to 7 count. john Schlueter and the Gubs stellar tackle, Dick Christiansen, made the afternoon very exciting for the St. Ambrose fans. Graduation will take most of the Gubs regu- lar linemen, but with such promising men as Dick Christiansen, Tom Conrardy, Ronald W61l1C1'. Coach Thomas will End other ma- terial to build a good line for returning backs like Fred Gallardo, jolm Schlueter, Tom Ryder, Bob Bertsch, Tom Schlueter, Louis Iuzzolino, Jack Burgmeier, john Hayes. p THE GUBS TRY AN OFF - TACKLE- SMASH Page St Z'f'IIfj'-UHF E YOL' CJXN'T TRAP GALLARIJO T H AT VV A Y SCHLUETER ALMOST GOT AVVAY DONT XYORRY NTI u V li GOT ENOUGH M ICN l,lI-flt' TO STOP HIM .S L'-:wily-Iwo Top Row- Leahigh, Blaser, XYi11clez's.

Basketball, 194 C6 5 19417 The Loras Cubs 1946-47 basketball season, after close examination, could be termed quite successful, Coach Mel Nicks' initial problem was one that 'only time can cure-the problem of experience. A look at the squad roster will bear out this fact, as it shows that Ollly four seniors were carried on the squad, while the remainder of the squad was composed of under- classmen. Add to this, the plague of injuries which struck at crucial times, and one can see the handicap which befell the squad. The opening game found a jittery purple and gold tive traveling to Platteville, where the combination of playing away from home and opening game tension was too much, and the Cubs dropped a 36 - 27 decision. But with the tension off, the junior Purgold came back to cop three consecutive wins, the hrst of these being a 37- 17 victory over Independence, a win which avenged a defeat of the year before at the hands of the same Independence five. This was followed up by a victory over St. Thomas of Rockford by a 43 - 36 count. The last of the trio of victories came when the Cubs hung a 3.2 - 24 loss on the St. Mary's of Iowa City record. lion Xl .llz CH ICICR LIQAIDICRS Janus liirlgunall .Xlt in ttunan Capt. Fernes and Coach X icks MIDGIE CHALKS UP TXVO MORE POINTS Next up were the Clinton Riverkings, one of the cage powerhouses of the state, and it was here that the Cubs showed their spirit and fight, before going down 50-49. The Cubs then journeyed to Cedar lialls where they en- gaged in a terrific overtime battle, but once more they were unsuccessful and came out on the short end of the count, the final score read- ing: Cedar Falls 53, l,oras -lo. Playing at Rockford, the purple and gold came through to repeat their early season victory over St. Thomas, this time by a ten point margin, 43-36. The next game found the Cubs in a momentary lapse, and the result was a crushing 57-34 defeat at the hands of lidgewood. But St. Ambrose was to feel the sting of that defeat. for the Gubs now stormed back to drop their downstate rivals by a 49 - -ll count. Next to do battle with the purple and gold was Aquinas, whom the Cubs had defeated twice the previous year. One of the closest and most exciting tilts of the year resulted, with Aquinas finally coming out on top 45-44. Then came the invasion of the Campion Knights, but with enthusiasm running high, the Junior Pur- gold was able to beat off the challenge and fight through for a close 28 - 24 win. The Gubs took to the road once more, traveling to Davenport, where they did battle with St. Ambrose. Here the Junior Purgold suderezl another heartbreaking loss, this time by a 36 - 34 count. It was a desperation bucket in the final few seconds that spelled defeat for the purple and gold in this contest. The next obstacle in the Cubs' path was St. Mary's of Iowa City, and with the averages still holding against them, the Junior Purgold once more came out on the short end of the final count, the score being -43 - 42. it was the fifth defeat of the close kind that the Gubs had suffered thus far. 'But once again they showed their real stuff, as they bounced back to avenge their early season defeat and down Platteville 50 - 39, in a game that was never in doubt after the opening minutes. They followed this up with a convincing 54 - 39 win over a highly regarded Cedar Falls live in a game which marked the end of the Gubs home season. The next game found the Cubs cold, and the result was a 51-38 defeat at the hands of Aquinas. The Junior l urgold ended the regular season on a rather sour note, when they traveled to Prairie du Chien, and there dropped another stinging one point game, this time to the Campion Knights, the final score reading 34 - 33. Tournament time was next, and in their initial tilt the Cubs swamped Decorah to the time of 61-30. They then copped District honors by downing a stubborn and hard iight- ing l'ostville five, 32-.27 and added a new trophy to the silent sentinels of the Acaclemy's past glory. Their Erst assignment in the Sub- state tournament was West VVaterloo, ranked among the first live strongest teams in the state: but the Gubs showed no sign of being aware of this fact as they went to battle. The result was a gruelling, sharp contest which was not decided until the final whistle, the final score Pngr' .S'1'r'r'11Iy-fnilr' 'eddie takes 'llernes breaks for the basket being 38 - 3-l, Vlvest XVaterloo's favor.

Other veterans returning this year were Gene Siegert, a speedy hurdler, and Dick Christiansen and Carl Burback in discus and shot put. These veterans are backed up by stars in their own departments. Leo McQuestion and Fred Gallardo are very capable pole vaulters, and there are few to compare with Jack Schwartz in the high jump. Jerry Dempsey and Tom Conrardy round out the roster of the distance runners and Vince Wellen- dorf is one of the fastest dash men in the State. Along with Rigney, Bob I,eto, Welleiidorf, and Jack Rodi, compromise a very speedy relay team. The first meet this year was the State Indoor held at Iowa City, and the Gubs gave a very favorable showing. Bill Conrardy is the State Indoor half-mile Champ and Bill Rigney ran the fastest heat in the hurdles. Conrardy also finished second in the mile run in which a new record was set. The next meet was with St. Ambrose, whom the Thinclads very handily defeated 78 - 34. The following week, the Gubs engaged in a dual meet with neighboring Dubuque Senior High and were handed a 65 -45 defeat. The sting of defeat was softened when Bill Conrardy captured the mile and half- mile events, setting a new record for the Senior track as he ran the mile in the time of 4:38. Vince VVellendorf outraced a very fast field to garner the 100 and the 220 dash laurels. Lack of balance caused by the newness of the sport was the major factor in this loss. The Gubs then participated in the Gateway Classics at Davenport, where amid speedy competition they placed fifth. In the district meet at Marion, the Academy qualihed three, Rigney, Conrardy and Christiansen for the State Meet to be held in Ames, May 24th. The highlight of the District meet was the new record of 4 329 set by Conrardy in the mile run. With Rigney winning the high hurdles in 15.5, the Gubs defeated a powerful rival, Platteville, in a dual meet. A dual meet with a powerful Campion team, and the State meet complete the season for the Cub track team. Their performance this year is definite proof that this sport of the cinders, which was re-established last year, has become a permanent and successful major sport in the Academy.

In view of the fact that Father Watters, last years coach, is at the Catholic University of Washington, the golf team was under the THE BIG FOUR RYDER TEES OFF Stand:'i1y- Van Scoik, Dolter, Ryder, Locher, May, Jordan, Schumacher, Fr.

Among the veterans returning from the squad of '46 are Clarence May, Richard Schumacher, Robert Jordan, and Tom Ryder. In its first season at the Academy last year the sport caught on rather successfully, The team was entered in three meets, and despite its limited background and experience, managed to come out on top on one of them, third in a second, and in the state district meet at Davenport, failed to qualify for the finals by one stroke, when the team was nosed out by the veterans of neighboring Senior High. With such a large group of veterans, along with Richard Strub, Dave Dolter, John Guise, James Weis, Wilbur Van Scoik, Barry Hart- ness, Richard Mullen, and Richard Locher to form a nucleus, a great team is almost a cer- tainty. In their play this year they were vic- torious in a practice match with Senior High School, they took all honors, match, team and medal, in a quadrangular match with St. Am- brose, S. Columbkille's, and Senior High. At Davenport they won a match from St. Am- brose, and they will return there for the state tournament on May 17th.

Tlll6 i1i..40I'EI1S ACJACMHY Tennis TRAIN This year saw the inauguration of a varsity tennis team at Loras Academy. On April 8, the group of tennis hopefuls numbering 26 to be exact, first met and started their instruction and practice under the guidance of Msgr. Gannon and Rev. Charles Laliarge. With practice held every even- ing after school, the team shaped up well and has the makings of a ine tennis squad. As the practices progressed and elimination was made, it was found that the most promising netmen included Dick Ludwig, Rob Kramer, Tom Lehner, Paul Beitzel, Bill Tegeler, Leo McQuestion, Dan Haas, and Tom Ryder. The hopefuls who placed on the reserve list are Roger Ott, Jim Chap- man. Frank Weiizel, and Tom Christ. Out of these prospects a well rounded team will surely appear to defend L.A. on the tennis courts. Although the season was rather shorl, matches were scheduled with Senior High School and St. Ambrose Academy. In their first match, a jittery Gub team played good but spotty tennis and lost to Senior high. After a weeks work in correcting their mistakes, they journied to St. Ambrose and won their match with the Knights. They will travel to Cedar Rapids for the State Tournament on May 17, and play a return match with Senior High and St. Ambrose to complete their play for this year.

SOPHOMORE FOOTBALL The Soph liootball Team was led through its schedule under the expert coaching of Fr. Outer, Their record is three wins against two losses. The Sophs defeated St. ,Xmbrose 6 - O and romped over Nlaquoketa 10 - 6 and 39 - O. Their only defeats were handed to them by the neighboring Sophs of Senior lligh, going down in defeat to the tunes of 27 A O and 7 - O. The team possessed such outstanding per- formers as -lack liurgmeier, Hob llertsch, Dick Christiansen, and Tom Conrardy. These along with others will be demonstrating their ability in Varsity uniforms before too many Football seasons have passed. SOPHOMORE BASKETBALL The Soph Basketball team was coached by Gailen Thomas. They ended the season with a .500 average, winning five and losing five. The Sophs were defeated twice by Dyersville, twice by St. Ambrose, and once by Cascade. They conquered Sacred Heart of Monticello twice. Their first encounter was a 1'eal thrillerg the margin ot' victory being a single point in a sudden death overtime. These cagers also routed Platteville, Tennyson and Cascade. The team boasted such potential varsity stars as Tom Conrardy, Bob Jacquinot, Bob Iiertsch, and Vince VVellendorf1 all of whom should be wearing the purple and gold of the Varsity in the next few years.

The league was organized by Father Friedman and directed by Bill Rabe. There were six teams entered in the league, a boarder and day student team from each of the three upper classes. Each team elected their own captain, who acted as coach. The outstanding team of the league was the Junior Boarders, which had a record of four wins and one defeat. Their one defeat came in a hard-fought game with the Seniors Board- ers, the Hnal score reading 12-6. The only undefeated team in the league was the Senior Day Students, whom powered their way to victory in their only contest. Due to lack of equipment the full schedule could not be com- pleted, hence no league champion was named. Among the outstanding players of the league were: Mike DeLuca, Roy Enderlin, Bete Ferrie, Bob Nelson, Bill Shanahan, Gene Siegert, Midge, Delaney, and Pat Tuohy. Get out of the way, Louie!

The softball competition seemed to arouse the most enthusiasm and in the noon league no less than 13 teams were entered. As play progressed the Speed Merchants with George Winders at the helm showed promise of being the team to beat. Composed of Senior Day Students this team has had little difficulty downing all competition. Qther noteworthy squads entered are the North Enders under Delaneyg the f'Meat Ballsl' captained by Jacqninotg and the Krauts of Tom Conrardy. Volleyball also has brought out keen interest and the league comprises seven teams, playing regular scheduled noon matches. Here Bill Rigney's Big Guns and the uBL11'gOI1lZ:1St6l'SH under jack Burgmeier will most likely battle it out for top honors. These volleyball teams have 6 men to a team, and the best 2 out of 3 games decides the winners each noon. ln addition leagues have been formed in handball and singles and doubles in tennis to bolster the spring intramural program.

Within These Wvalills 1 think that I shall never see A test like that in history, A test that makes one scratch and squirm. . . And wonder if he'll pass the term.
