Tragedy marked the beginning, tragedy and triumph marked the end of Cardinal Meyer's brief seven years in the Chicago Archdiocese. The disastrous fire at Our Lady of Angels called forth his sympathy and help to the bereaved. In the years that followed, his scholarship, vision, and leader- ship kept Chicago in the forefront of the social and liturgical renewals, Although a shy, reserved man, His Eminence was outspoken and forthright and impressed the Holy See. lm- portant appointments and honors came to him rapidly. Prominent among these were memberships in the Pontifical Commission for Biblical Studies, the Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith, Seminaries, and Universities, the Pontifical Commission for the Revision of the Code of Canon Law, and the Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office. During Vatican II, Cardinal Meyer came of age and was termed the American Voice at the Vatican Council. His scholarship, wisdom, and leadership impressed the Council Fathers and the world in general. ln February, l965, persistent pressure headaches neces- sitated the Cardinal's undergoing brain surgery for removal of what proved to be a malignant brain tumor. On April 9, l965, death came to Chicago's Shepherd of Souls.-R.l.P. 4 ,f i f T'-1 cry-gg,-'gp Q, ,o , H..-I 3 f ' ilfii rifle g lflf Ifflif X F757 i I U .ff iys f-2ii'? '2 .,

Women of Loyola Receiving line at the Anniversary Ball. Very Rev. James F. Maguire, S.J., assisted by Fathers Ralph Talkin, S, J. and Michael I. Gan- non, SJ., receive gift offerings for Mass pre- sented by Ellen Kane. 1 ' Fifty down and forever to go- Loyola's 4,000 coeds this year commemorated the day in l9l5 when three women from the School of Sociology received their bachelor's degrees from the University. February 7 was chosen for special celebrations, which began with a Mass at Madonna Della Strada, included a brunch, speeches and a fashion show, and was culminated in the evening's formal ball. lt's hard to imagine a Loyola without women, and just as hard for many of the coeds to imagine life without Loyola. Some of the school's most active student leaders and servants are female, not to mention 7,000 devoted members of the Alumnae Association, ln every type of ex- tracurricular activity, be it religious, athletic, musical, dramatic, honorary, co-curricular, or social in every branch of academic pursuit from the Stritch School of Medicine to the School of Business Administration, from en- tomology to English Literature, one finds the Loyola woman, striving to better herself and her environment. ,fr Ellen Kane, Connie Karas, Barbara Juskiewicz, Mary Cook, and Lori Didzerkis prepare for the gift procession at the Anniversary Mass. yi 5 4 , n Z!!!- X ff! ff 'l !
