Greyhound Picks Up --For a While Under the capable editorship of Chuck Barrett, the Greyhound achieved new heights in bringing the news of Loyola to students, alumni and friends. With t lie creation of the new posts of News Editor and Associate Editors, the work was handled with much more dispatch, and the issue was usually ready for the printer by the un- heard-of early time, eleven o’clock of a Sunday evening. Compara- tively few items were left until the last minute; in fact, nearly every- thing was done by Friday except the Book Reviews, the Cold Spring Mnrmurings, the Political Column, the Feature Story, and six or seven news articles, and the Editorial was always in the hands of the printer by noon Tuesday. On Friday, everyone turned avidly to Jack Helfrich ' s column to find out the latest developments in his efforts to reform the Cafe but the crusade had little practical effect. 23

Sociologists Go To Prison , Insane Asylum On a bright Tuesday afternoon in M arch, thirty-six seniors ful- filled the prophecy oft-given by their elders that more than half of the Class of ’42 would wind up behind the bars sooner or later. But, un- fortunately for public peace and prosperity, all three dozen of the miscreants were at large again by nightfall, their release having been obtained through the intercession of Father Joseph J. Ayd on the plea that they all belonged to his Loyola Social Science Club. Later, this same group again manifested their belief in the naivete of the pub- lic officials by visiting Mount Hope Retreat. While all this cavorting was going on in the name of gaining a practical insight into social problems, these same problems were being tackled theoretically in a series of seminar lectures which included President Joseph B. Cro- ghan’s “Juvenile Delinquency,” Frank Ayd’s “Insanity” and Frank Hansen’s “Heredity.” SOCIAL SCIENCE CLUB : First row — Harmon, Gallagher, Walton, Reahl, Croghan (President), F. Ayd, Hansen, Weinberg, Owen. Second row — Lancaster, May, Fitzpatrick, Stedem, Waltjen, Price, Ventura, Conlon, Barlage, Christoffel, Crook, Corasaniti. Third row — Canter, Schmidt, Kaltenbach, Russell, Boone, Barrett. Top row — Bock, Plummer, Father Ayd (Moderator), Corcoran, Thobe. 22

EVERGREEN QUARTERLY: Kaltenbach, Thaler (Editor), Barrett, F. Ayd, Mr. Clarke (Moderator), G. Ayd, Pugh, Hemelt, Crook, Helfrich. New Quarterly a Success This year saw the start of a new publication, The Evergreen Quarterly, a literary magazine. Under the guiding genius of Mr. Clarke, S.J., and edited by Tim Thaler, the first issue caused a great deal of comment. Replete with short stories, poems, essays, and sun- dry short sketches, it was adjudged a success, and received commen- dation from II. L. Mencken in a letter written to the Moderator, and was publicly acclaimed in the newspaper columns of Louis Azrael, and Folger McKinsey. As was the case with the Greyhound the staff showed great cooperation, and the copy was always handed in at least three days after the deadline for which the editor and moderator were truly grateful. The following three issues were equally well re- ceived, and the success of the venture is assured. 24
