As a diocesan 9 hie | а гемо, � е cheerfully lived at the seminary and submitted to much of its routine. In his bishopric, even at the high patriarchal post of Venice. he was zealous for his students and his seminary, To the greater bishopric of the papacy. so many were his reforms and improvements that it is almost easy to forget his common human affection for priests and his living words which breathed new spirit into the houses which prepared and. trained. them. This was the pope who uttered one sentence which above all else is appropriate in this dedi cation, “Your priests will be Just as you have educated them.” (Enevelical Pieni L Anima. 1906 +. Loras College today, as it has for more than a century, makes every effort to furnish the best education possible to her future Ambassadors of Christ. : Loras College has on its campus an institution which is found on. few other campuses in the country. The newest building at Loras houses what might well be called a “collegiate” seminary. St. Pius N Seminary ful- fills in every respect all the connotations of cach of these terms, so lot us deal with them one at a time. | The residents of North Hall are no less students of oras College than are the students who live in Keane. in Smyth, or off campus. The Nerth Hall student is encouraged to participate in all the college activities Which are not closed to him because of the second as- pect of his dual role, that of a seminarian. There are seminarians on every one of the college athletic teams, in the Loras Players. in such organizations as the Curia, the Sodality, Alpha Phi Omega and the Choir. The North Hall resident seeks the proper balance between recreation and study and learns to realize that it is as contrary t� � the letter and spirit of the rule to be in chapel saying his rosary during rec period as it is to speak during Grand Silence. It is through these activities that the North Hall resident prepares himself to be a well-educated. well-rounded, gentleman priest. The seminarian’s class schedule corresponds with that of any Liberal Arts student, directed toward the AB. degree. Tach graduation class includes clerics majoring in such subjects as English. History. Latin and Math or other sciences, while at the same time he has had the 30 hours of philosophy required of the pre-theology student. j . There is a certain intangible spirit of purpose which permeates the corridors and rooms of North Hall. It is perhaps a slightly higher and stronger bond than that which joins the residents of the ordinary college. resi- dence hall. It is a spirit which causes the students to say, one to another. You are striving to make yourself worthy to approach the altar for ordination, and I. as vour fellow seminarian. will do everything in my power to help you along this path chosen for you by God. John Paul Jones and James Duster pray and meditate in the Chapel which plays an important part in the life of those living in North Hall. The rule of North Hall include privations not required of other has as its purpose the drawing of greater love of God and a fuller realization of the sig- s chapel exercises and college students. It the student to a nificance and beauty of the liturgy o one day be so integral a part. It hel; for that sanctity so well summed up by Pius X in Haerent Animo: “There should be as much difference between the priest and good layman. as there is between heaven and earth, and therefore the priest's life should be free not only of the graver defects. but even of the least.” f which he will lps the student strive .

He attended Loras Academy and graduated from Loras College in 1905, From 1905 until 1908, he attended Propaganda University, Rome, Italy from which he received his bachelor of sacred theology degree and which culminated in his ordination on June 13, 1908, in St. John Lateran. basilica. J д Monsignor Semper was appointed to the Loras English faculty upon his return from Rome, and he founded the Loras drama department in 1910; however, it was in the field of Shakespeare and Dante that he gained his greatest recognition. He was elected to member- ship in the Dante Society last year and had been notified of his election to the Shakespeare Society shortly before his death. A frequent contributor to several leading periodicals, Mon- signor Semper wrote three plays as well as many other published writings in his literary field. Many of the present day students here at Loras never saw or knew Monsignor Semper. but those who did and the faculty, many of whom were taught by him, realize the tremendous loss suffered by the college by his death. We have a standing heritage in the work that Mon- signor Semper has so unselfishly contributed to Loras, and it remains as a high tribute to the great man that he was. seventeen LORAS CONFERS AN HONORARY DEGREE lak isa a — — | | — 4 ee Above.

Greco, star performer as well as choreographer and director of the group, led the thirty dancers and instrumentalists in a program consisting of 19 distinct and colorful dances. Jose Greco and his dancers made their initial American appearance at the Shubert theatre in New York in 1951. and immediately drew the plaudits of the critics. Success in New York was followed by an extensive cross country tour, which proved so popular, that transcontinental tours have been made each succeeding season. After this tour the group returns to Europe to fulfill commitments there. The Greco troupe was a distinctive change in the type of entertainment offered at Loras. and all those who attended the exciting show agreed that they had witnessed dancing at its best. їс Beo in one of the colorful leaps that typify the ү ons i à native Spain, e and his troupe give to the rhythms of their aet Pecan] Above.

Robert Kaliban and Thomas Ryan were fea- tured in the contrasting roles of Iago and Othel- lo respectively. A great part of the play con- cerns the interactions of these two characters as the subtle villain, Iago, works with cunning and craft upon the more noble but less worldly-wise barbarian, Othello. The role of Desdemona, Othello's faithful and demure wife, was played by Kathie Burke. John Wright played Cassio. Othellos Lieutenant. Jeannine Wadoz played lago's wife, Emilia. Daniel Flynn was Roderigo. Other players in the cast were: Joseph Dragon ette as Montano, Yvonne McElroy as Bianca, Thomas Hig; at Lodivico, James Duncan as Gratiano, Lucian Buscaglia, Daniel Vandercar. and Gerald Drahozal as the three gentlemen. and Carl Oeschger as Othello's Servant. | The non-speaking roles of the townspeople i Kathye Burke as Desdemona and Thomas Ryan as Othello. and soldiers were filled bv Ron Ameche, Michael Collins, Richard Kauth, John Paul Jones, Vic i Ramaeker, David Zlevor, John Beno, Thomas Braak, Bernard Gottner, and Richard Brunkan.

THE LORAS PLAYERS IN The Loras Players opened their forty-fourth season by presenting Christopher Frys verse comedy, “The Lady's Not for Burning The play was performed on the evenings of October 17th, 1Sth and 19th. The cast was headed by Peter Miller as the hero, Thomas Mendip, and Barbara Gusich as the heroine, Jennet Jourde- mayne, Other principals were: James Jensen as Richard, Victoria Sbrocco as Alizon Eliot, Bernadette Dreyer as Margaret Devise, and Robert Kaliban as Hebble Tyson. Other mem- bers of a very good cast were: John Wright and David Zlevor as the quarrelsome brothers, Nich- olas and Humphrey Devise, Richard Kauth as the Chaplain, Joseph Dragonette as Tippercoom, the justice, and Peter Cross as Matthew Skipps. The story of the play concerns the heros desire to be hung and thus rid himself of this world as counterbalanced by his attraction for Jennet, a woman accused of witcheraft. This rather fantastic plot serves as a setting for a number of wittily extravagant speeches, a meas- ure of clowning, and a good deal of philosophiz- ing by the author. A fine play, well done, it made a good season's opener. STRONG ARE THE LONELY As their annual, Lenten, religious play The Loras Players this year presented “The Strong Are Lonely” by Fritz Hochwaelder, which dealt with the Jesuit Reductions in Paraguay, a little used theme, whose novelty aided in making the presentation very enjoyable. Gerald Hartz, in the complicated and diffi- cuit role of the Father Provincial, made a fine debut in his first performance on the Loras Stage. John Jones playing De Miura, the Span- ish Ambassador, was by turns threatening and just to the Jesuits, as his desire for fairness struggled with his dislike of the Jesuit state. The play centers to a great degree around these two characters in the struggle of the one to de- stroy and the other to preserve the idealized state, which these missionaries established in Paraguay. Others in the cast were John Hudecek., Stan- ley Hayek, James Duster, Victor Ramacker, John Beno, Richard Brunkan, John Kremer, Robert Hogan. Bernard Gottner. William McLaughlin. Roger Nilles.

NATIONAL FEDERATION OF CATHOLIC COLLEGE STUDENTS This year saw the operation of the National Feder- ation of Catholic College Students highlighted by such activities on the Loras campus as the Regional Work- shop, the Regional Congress, a student talent show, and several mixers. Ably guided by its new Senior Dele- gate, Bob Moddes, and Junior Delegate, Mike Mitchell, the organization seemed to spread new life and en- thusiasm among the student body. The primary purpose of the NFCCS is to impress upon Catholic college students that they are members of a huge community—the Catholic Collegiate Com- munity, Members of the NFCCS gain practical knowl- edge through contact with the student bodies of the 189 school membership. They find out what other schools do socially, intellectually and in all other as- pects of collegiate life. Members become acquainted with other college students through Workshops, Couneil Meetings, Congr es. and through continuous corre- spondence not only with other colleges, but with the regional and national headquarters as well. The individual school benefits by vi rtue of this or- ganization because the practi I application of NFCCS is the improvement of campus life in general and extra- curricular life in particular. No problem is a new prob- lem to NFCCS. It has been met and effectively handled on scores of other campuses and this wealth of informa- tion is available to each school. The federation operates NFCCS executive committee members consider a proposal. | SE s ien ; ашагы Жш г Standing left to right. George A.

In its seventh successful year of operation on the campus, the Student Senate has again achieve:l the aims for which it was designed, namely the regu- lation of student activities and the enactment of legis- lation representative of the student body. Harmony and understanding within the unit itself has made pos- sible efficient operation, and under the leadership of an outstanding president, Carroll Theobald the com- mittees and their leaders have provided for the stu- dents of Loras College and its two sister colleges, Clarke and Mercy School of Nursing, a well balanced year of activities. How effectively the aims of the body were ac- complished is manifested primarily in the well planned social calendar which was made available to the stu- dents at the beginning of the year. Such activities, as the Homecoming and Spring Prom highlighted the year. followed by a goodly number of mixers, socials, and TV parties, Culminating the industrious work of the members and officers in an attempt to provide a pleasant college The officers of the Student Senate and committee chairman before a Senate meeting.

The Loras chapter was organized this year and has been quite active. The purpose of the Society is the “sanctification of the members’ souls,” and it is manifested through extensive works of char- ity performed by the members. Among the many charitable activities which the organization performed this year were visits to St. Mary’s home to entertain the orphan chil- dren, trips to the County Poor Farm to give small gifts of cigarettes and tobacco as well as encouragement, and visits to the various hos- pitals and nursing homes in Dubuque. John Wright was chosen president of the Loras chapter, and Thomas Braig was elected vice- president. Miles Conway was named secretary- treasurer. The St. Vincent de Paul Society, an unsung charitable organization is looking for- ward to many successful years to come on the Loras campus. THE GROTTO With the opening of the school year, students found a beautiful new grotto built on the north side of the campus, at the head of the ravine in the oaks north of Hennessy Hall and west of North Hall. The grotto is constructed of weathered and native stone and has been built to take advantage of the terrain in the area. It is encircled by an antique iron railing and contains two cast iron kneelers. There are lite size statues of the Blessed Virgin and of Berna- dette, Inside the Grotto is a votive light stand, which visitors may light if they wish. The grotto affords an ideal place to hold outdoor religious activities, and it is especially appropriate for Marian events. In addition to these uses, the grotto provides an inspirational place for stu- dents to go for quiet meditation. The grotto represents a very striking re production of the famous shrine in Lourdes, France, where Mary appeared to Bernadette, a simple peasant girl. Bernadette, her older sister, and a neighbor girl were gathering firewood in the vicinity of the now famous grotto when the first apparition occurred. This was followed by seventeen suc- cessive appearances by Mary. AN The Sodality dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary at the grotto patterned after the famed shrine at Lourdes.

The Loras College Sodality, a group apostolate, through ardent devotion and fervent love for the Blessed Virgin Mary, instills in its lay members zeal in the quest of Christian perfection for self, neighbor, and world in accordance with the Pontifical mandate of the Apostolic Constitution, BIS SAECULARE. To achieve these aims, Sodalists make a perpetual consecration to Mary of striving to seek self-perfection which overflows into Apostolic labor cnergized by the leadership of the Church. The activity of the Sodality depends upon the work of the smaller committees. The committees during the past year were very active, and excellent results were obtained in the promotion ol Catholic newspapers, the sale of Catholic Christmas cards, the evening Rosary, and First Friday Adoration. The Sodality also sponsored the annual Christmas party at the orphanage. Every Sodalist participates in a pro- gram of self-development for the role of lay leader in the Christian mode of perfection. This vears Sodality was moderated by Rev. Wilfred Johannes and Rev. Robert Vogl. Jerome Degan served as Prefect, Bernard Gottner as Vice-Prefect. Charles O'Brien as Secretary. and Tom Pfeffer as Treasurer The Sodality turns out in a group to demonstrate its devotion to Our Lady at the Blessing of the Grotto. seventy-nine CATHOLIC STUDENTS MISSION meee EIS.

This event ad- vanced the worthy mission cause with $915, and was holding its lead position as one of the highlights of campus life at the same time. Matilda, the sculptural being of feminine pulchritude, left records by the wayside as North Hall bought her for $290. The statue of the Patron Saint had to take a slow second selling for $64. A shirt with a shamrock pierced by an orange dagger worn by Gasper Guggino was torn from his back by an Irish faction for $42. The bargains left over brought $215 at St. Hermenegild’s auction, April 13.

Robert L. Palen betwee Pauses for the photographer n conferences at North Hall. аьа — ' Y The Retreat Master in Christ the King Chapel at the annual lay-student retreat was Fr. Charles Clark, S.J. eighty twe The annual retreat at Loras was held as usual from Ash Wednesday, Feb. 23, to the first Saturday in Lent, Feb. 26. Yet it was an unique retreat in that cach hall on campus had its own retreat-master. Father Robert L. Palen was the retreat-master for the North Hall stu- dents; Father Charles Clark, S.J. for Keane Hall and off-campus students; and Father Cyril A. Geary, OP for the Smyth Hall students. Each priest attempted to bring to his group of students the special spiritual ideals, encouragements, and warnings as regards each group in the choice of their vocations. The annual Loras College retreat is one of the many ways by which the faculty of the college gives. to the students a chance to educate themselves more fully in the truths and duties ef the divine life of grace. To the students the special days of retreat are no more than an extraordinary exemplification of their daily lives as Catholic men. During these special days, the student attempts to revivify in himself the spirit of love for God, the spirit of remorse and repentence for sin. There is a chance to evaluate oneself during these days of quiet to see if one has approached closer to the final goal of life; for this is the purpose of the retreat, to become more aware of God, our Beginning and our End. The Retreat Master for the Dominican students, Fr. Cyril A. Geary, O.P., prepares for his next con- ference. PRAYER LEADERS AND SACRISTANS Very few of us realize when we attend morn- ing Mass that there must be someone who is responsible for having the altar ready, setting out the priests vestments, seeing that there are enough candles on the altar or even making sure that there is someone to light the candles and serve Mass. Although it might sound like a few simple tasks, it demands much time and effort on the part of the group known as the Sacristans. Their duties include the care of the altars in Christ the King Chapel, North Hall Chapels and for the numerous altars in the Chapel of the Twelve Apostles. The position of Head Sacristan in Keane Hall was competently handled by Carroll Theobald this year. He was assisted, and very capably. by the following: William Herkes, Jim Tretter, Jerry Beauvais, Edward Fleege, Leo Ruggle and Bernie Hayek. In North Hall, Tom Braak served with equal diligence the position of Head Sacris- tan, assisted by: Richard Kielbasa, Roger Augus- tine, Larry Beeson, Gaspar Guggino and Karl : Glovik.

Loras College was host to the Reverend Harold C. Gardiner, S.J.. Ph.D. Father Gardiner is the famed literary editor of America magazine and has written extensively in the field of literary criticism. The subject of Father Gardiners lec- ture was limited to the topie, “Significant Books of the Past Decade.” The lecture was delivered. in St. Joseph's Hall before a v appreciative audience, who appar- ently were aware of the qualifications of the man before them. The lecture mentioned and discussed briefly those books, both fiction and non-fiction, which the speaker believed to be the most important written in the past decade. During the course of the enlightening lec- ture, Father Gardiner gave his full audience an oppor- tunity to ask questions. Some of those asked pertained to the appraisal the speaker had given particular books during the evening, while others sought information re- garding books or authors of the twentieth century which Father Gardiner had not mentioned as part of his pre- pared lecture. The fact that Father Gardiner was un- doubtedly equipped to answer these questions finds ample evidence in his own literary accomplishments, which, besides being literary editor of America, include: since 1940, editorial chairman of The Catholic Book Club; and author of numerous books, including, Mys- teries End, and Norms for the Novel. Father Gardiner has edited The Great Books: A Christian Appraisal and Fifty Years of the American Novel, indicating his au- thority on his chosen topic. 1 E A а ЕГ Е m Editor David V.

There were three major trips for the squad this year. The first meet was held in Novem- ber at Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois. This was the initial showing at the Bradley tourney for the Loras team, but their record in their debut proved it wouldnt be the last. The ten speakers received three superior and nine excellent ratings. In this tourney, fifty-four schools from eight states participated. March proved to be a busy month for the group when two trips were taken. The first was to the Iowa University campus in Towa City, where the speakers were not again to be denied. At this Iowa Intercollegiate Forensic Tournament, Loras competed against such schools as Iowa University, the University of Ilinois, and Northwestern.

The Lorian, a biweekly student. publication, is Loras’ answer to this student need. The Lorian offers the student body reviews of college plays and special events on the campus, complete intra- mural coverage, sports news and an occasional “scoop” on such things as class election results and student ap- pointments. The past year has witnessed several changes in the Lorian publication and makeup. The Lorian has con- sistantly been a laboratory for the journalism students at Loras. To give the journalism students a wider variety of experience, the Lorian editorship this year was passed among the students of the Journalism class, each student editing two issues. The plan was surprisingly success- ful and the Lorian continued to bring the same complete coverage to the students that had formerly distinguished it among small college newspapers. Lorian readers enjoyed the addi tion of several new columns this year. The “Lorian Line-Up” e a chrono- logical listing of campus activities, the “ CCS Report- er” brought national, regional, and campus news of this organization to the students. and the column “Its in the Books” offered a brief review of the most recent books in the Loras library. Lorian this year took turns managing each edition.

Friedman conducted the first session at Loras speaking on “Childhood and the Foundations of Love.” Fr. F. P. Friedl. Ph.D., lectured in the Clarke audi- torium on “Adolescence and the Growth of Love.” The Merey Hospital nursing students hostessed the third meeting at which Msgr. Gannon explained “The Mean- ing of Adult Love.” “What Makes Hubby Run?” was answered (to the dismay of the Loras men and the d isfaction of the Clarke women) by Dr. John J. Kane at the final session at Clarke. Chairman of the Sociology Department at Notre Dame, Dr. Kane is a noted authority on marital problems. All sessions included a lecture, intermission period with refreshments, and stimulating question. period. A valuable innovation on our campus. the Forum holds great promise after its second highly successful season. Clarke College girls serve refreshments during the intermission of the marriage forum at Loras. = (CLARKE TH E CURIA One of the most active and entl Ше кы сш aa on the campus is the Loras Coliewe 7 à ee ization takes its name from the Roman senat 1 im pe mm Curia, and is dedicated to place orators i u USES the eloquent as the ancient Romans. s in the world as The Curia is conscious of the fact that in our present day American society every man needs a ce tai PE n public speaking to communicate with this tell ei 4 i i effectively, To achieve this purpose che Ек bi-monthly and holds informal discussions and speeches Speeches are given by cither three or four coa constructive criticism concerning both — and de livery of cach speech is given by thie tudsec ES 985 of a literary ог educational nature nre dins xi Eid ий ranged from the psychological effects of tie A — a behind the scenes description of the Loras Curia meets Meetings are conducted according to parliamentary procedure and a parliamentarian is in ше� ге t е� . sure the proper enforcement of the rules О� е most notable achievements of the past year was th ; à plete revision of the constitution to meet th : exi zendies of changing times. == Membership is limited to thirty members in order t assure everyone a chance of speaking at le: a 4 : ing the year and to give him the opportunity F1 ing judged by his fellow members.

Albert Carmen, was started in 1909 by the Rey. Alphonse Dress and since then it has sung at the Sunday High Mass as well as on special occa- sions which call for liturgical music. This organization spent more time in preparation than any other organization on campus.

This spirited aggregation boasts 27 select mem- bers and is under the talented direction of Rev. J. F. Blackburn. Emphasizing semi-classical and modern songs, this group has impressed all who have heard it perform. Glee Club activities were numerous. The group gave a concert February 27, in the Loras Auditorium which was well received by a large audience. Among the selections were Schubert's “La Pasterella” and “Widerpruch”; choruses from “The Yeomen of the Guard” by Gilbert and Sullivan; along with such perennial favorites as “Down in the Valley,” “Wunderbar” and “Don- key Serenade.” Members also collaborated with the vocal students of Clarke College in staging two comic operas on March 30, On two very special occa- sions the group enjoyed singing for the faculty. These privileges included a selection of carols ` ‚ en E rendered during the annual Faculty Christmas ега ВЕРЬ 3 Banquet and the distinguished honor of singing The Rev. Gerald F.

The band may not be quite as loud as Sauter-Finnegan, but it must be remembered that we have only one di- reetor instead of two. The Loras Band is a popular attraction to the public not only at football and basket- ball games, but particularly at the Christmas and spring concerts. The concerts offer a variety of styles of music, ranging from light opera to hillbilly tunes. The Loras band is run on a strictly voluntary basis, which is responsible for having an interested band. Bandmen play for enjoyment, and only the time close to concert could be considered “work.” The director, Mr. Vaughn Gayman, is the man be- hind the scenes whom all band men, past. present. and to come, will remember. Whatever the season, whatever the occasion. Mr. Gayman's band men can accommo- — senna the — ans traveler from Little date, with fresh, enjoyable music, and enjoy every min- sw: i i i : ае е те eet and mellow music straight from ute of it as much, or more, than even the most appre- E ciative audience. ane hundred “Joy reigned supreme,” aptly describes this year's Homecoming, for lovely Miss Joy Conlon, Clarke College senior, reigned as Homecoming Queen. Joy was selected from a group of five candidates by Mr. Arch Ward, prominent Loras alumnus and sports editor of the Chicago Tribune. Crowned at the Homecoming dance by Miss Pat Smith, last years Homecoming Queen, Joy and her court which consisted of Miss Janet Lucy, and Miss Benita Kane, both of Clarke College, and Miss Lois O'Brien and Miss Marilyn Herber both of Mercy School of Nursing, presided at the dance and the football game. A wonderful spirit was exhibited by the stu- dents of Loras as they contributed heavily of their time and effort in decorating the various sites on campus. The boys from St. Pius X Hall took top honors in the outdoor decoration con- test with a “land. sea, and air” motif, which consisted of a gaily decorated covered wagon, a boat and an airplane in a tailspin. “Down the Lewis Flyers” was the slogan and general theme that permeated all the decorations. The Delta Sigma, fraternity for off-campus students, erected on the front of the fieldhouse a huge cardboard placard on which was painted a young couple coming to the Homecoming Dance. The Dominican students over at Smyth Hall used the airplane motif with a dummy Loras football player shooting the plane down with a cannon. The front of Keane Hall was decorated by the Alpha Phi Omega, National Service Fraternity, It featured “Dewey the Duhawk” snaring the Lewis Flyer. = Quenn Joy Conlon of Clark College reigned over the Loras homecoming festivities and with her wonderful smile and per- sonality became a queen to all Lorasmen. Again it was the artistic hand of Rev. Edward Sullivan and his co-workers who converted the interior of the fieldhouse into a beautiful dance- land. Using a huge dummy football player as a centerpiece, Father Sullivan and his crew, created their decorations in a football motif. As a backdrop for the orchestra, Father Sullivan painted the various campus buildings in fluo cent color on a light green pasteboard back- ground, Ray Beam and his orchestra furnished the music at the dance which was attended bv many alumni as well as Lorasmen and their dates. Everybody, including the weatherman who furnished a beautiful autumn day, cooperated to make Homecoming a success—everybody. that is. except the Lewis Flyers, who trounced our Duhawks.

THE LORAS CHEERLEADERS Once again this past year, the Cheerleaders did their part to lift the morale of the various Loras athletic teams, To the fans and students of Loras, this year’s group appeared as an almost completely new contin- gent; for only sophomore John G. Burke returned as an experienced cheerer. Four new men, all freshmen, filled the remaining cheerleader roles. They were John R. Daily, John A. Kalata, John W. McReynolds, and James J. Kapp. During the year, the cheerleaders’ task was not an easy one. They were plagued by a losing season in football, and it took more than a little cajoling to raise the spirit of some of the more phlegmatic fans. Yet, the boys were out there whooping it up, even though they would be unable to talk for a couple of days after each game, They had a somewhat better time of it during basketball season when the fans were a closer, more compact unit, and more easily stirred up. In the basket- ball game against St. Ambrose, they were ably assisted by several Lorasmen who dressed up in clowning array and proceeded to warm up the crowd with their antics. special vote of appreciation should go to the cheer- leaders, for they are particularly essential in firing up n the fans to back the team, and they did a commendable The men who more than once stirred the crowd to job of it. support of our Loras teams.

This har d-working group exemplifies the true spirit of cooperation of Loras men and should be rated high in the service rendered column. Rev. Donald Hutchinson is the moderator for the Ushers Club. PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM The Public Address Club, in its fifteenth year of operation, is under the direction of its founder, the Rt. Rev. Monsignor George N. Schulte, chairman of the chemistry department. The club, under the leadership of Monsignor Schultes assistant, Mr. Richard J. Hess performed an invaluable service to the college with its efficient work at social, cultural and athletic events on the campus. The club was also responsible for public address coverage of Loras Academy football and bas- ketball games. The staff this year was comprised of two announcers and a student engineer. William. O'Meara, senior pre- law Economics major from Waukegan, Minois handled the announcing duties as he has for the past three vears. Assisting him at college functions and responsible for Loras Academy events this year was the job of Richard Kunnert, freshman pre-clerical student from Dubuque. Joseph O'Hara, freshman pre-clerical student from Mar- shalltown, Towa, served as Mr. Hess’ assistant in the engineering department, DELTA SIGMA FRATERNITY Each year the Delta Sigma, off-campus fraternity, presents a significant trophy to the most valuable team player of the basketball team. This player is selected by a vote of the team members, and the award is thus a highly coveted one, for it not only demands basketball prowess on the part of the winner, but also the ability to get along well with his teammates. This vear the trophy was awarded to Ed Lang, star center of the Duhawks, who was selected for his leadership in the scoring column and his competitive spirit in firing up the scrappy Duhawks. | The Delta Sigma feels that this award, which was presented for the first time last year, gives the team a secondary incentive for working together as well as shows the appreciation of this fraternity for the efforts displayed by the basketball team during the season. It gives the team members something to shoot for over and above the natural incentive to win, plus a wonder- ful remembrance of his Duhawk days for the winner. It is for these reasons that the Delta Sigma has decided to make the trophy a traditional award. This years presentation was made during the half- time of the Loras-Ambrose game by Bob Frommelt president of the Delta Sigma. i The Rev. William C. Kunsch, moderator of the Delta Sigma Fraternity, looks on as Robert J. From- melt, fraternity president, presents the trophy awarded annually to the outstanding team player to Edward J. Lang. The Sweetheart. Ball The Sweetheart Ball, a big event on the Delta Sigma social calendar, was held in the Loras College fieldhouse on the evening of February 1I. Music was provided by Eddie Allen and his orchestra for what proved to be a very enter- taining and enjoyable evening. The fieldhouse was gaily decorated in a Valentine's Day theme under the able direction of Don Gilbert, chair- man of the decoration. committee.

Inexperience Rules _ Coach Ed Murphy and his youthful Duhawks headed for Macomb, Ill. and their season opener against the Western Tllinois Leathernecks. A veteran Western squad moved the ball at will and ran up a 38-6 count. Time and time again Western backs tore loose and ripped huge holes in the Loras line. Not to be discouraged by this loss to the powerful Leathernecks, the underdog Duhawks moved up to West De Pere, Wis., to do battle with the Green Knights from St. Norbert. Loras had only beaten the Knights on their home field once in the 11-game series and had not beaten them anywhere in the last seven encounters. The fired-up Duhawks, paced by veteran tackle Bob Frommelt, who pounced on two fumbles to set up scores, and senior halfback Bernie Parrington, who scored both TD's. upset the Knights in a real thriller, 14-7. Key to that tilt was the stubborn Loras defense which held the Norbert team to only 39 yards rushing. In the annual argument with St. Ambrose over the possession of the Victory Bell the roof again caved-in on the Duhawks. Hampered by wet grounds. loose offici- ating. and penalties, the men from Loras succumbed to the Bees, 26-0, and lost the bell for the first time in four vears.

The annual award is given to the Duhawk and Spartan athletes who best exemplify the qualities of sportsmanship for their schools. Both were seniors. Season Bob Frommelt, aptly tagged “The Bear” at Loras, was unanimously named to the All-Catholic Midwest squad for the second straight year. He was hampered throughout most of the ‘54 season with a leg injury, but saw action in seven of the eight games. He was out for the St. Ambrose contest. At 6-2, 224 pounds, he has been the starting right tackle for the Duhawks for the past three seasons.

Maybe their final record for the year wasnt one to crow about (11-5), but any Loras fan who braved the snow and cold to watch Coach Vince Dowd's edition play some of the toughest small college. opposition in Iowa and her sister states, saw, on occasion, the hardest fought and best basketball in quite a while. It seemed a year of hot and cold nights; at times, the young crew looked great. and then again they couldn't come near the bucket. As often as not it was just a matter of height. Averaging only a hair over six feet, the Duhawks were simply out of their class when it came to the six-and-a-half footers tossing the ball around up in the girders. Then a matter of experience came into play, for only three of the sophs had broken into the varsity lineup the year before. But what they lacked in size and experience, they made up for in speed and alertness. Little Joe Ottavi was a magician with the ball and it was often his back- handed pass or swift dribble that set up a basket. And this was the year that Ed Lang, the only senior on the team, made a big name for himself. His season total of 445 points gave him a three year mark of 1027 tallies. placing him in the fourth spot on the all-time Loras scoring team. “Steady Eds” biggest night was a 35- pointer in the first game of the season. Fred May and Dick Wright were two classy per- formers. especially under the boards. Cy Potts, Ed Me- Mahon and Mike Toohey played a fast, hard brand of ball at the guard spots. Balance seemed the keynote of Coach Dowd's cagers, for they could all run, pass and shoot with nearly equal skill. Statistics show that all five regulars finished with an 11 point-plus average The season's opener on November 30 when the Du- hawks met Platteville in the fieldhouse turned out to be a fracas loaded with fireworks and all the trim mings as Loras swept to its first victory of the vear. 93-88.

St. Thomas was too tall and, even though the Dowdmen fought for all they had, the end was a close 81-78 de- feat. Again, two days later, Iowa State Teachers came to Dubuque, à powerhouse packed with enough to send its grimly battling host to their worst defeat of the sea- son, 100-76. In the fourth episode of the year, St. Mary's of Winona dropped in on the Duhawks, and, after an even-up first half, gradually sneaked away during the second to win, 64-54, ` i Fhe Duhawk’s darkest hours, came during the next two days. as they took their first jaunt away from the fieldhouse.

The overtime hours were quite apparent when the brown and beige Ford hardtop was parked out in front of the gym night after night and was seen pulling up every morning between 7:15 and E ew in The revised program was the result of much of his extra work as well as the fulltime job that he devoted to it.
