ecfzkatzbn As we seniors have passed through our four years of high school here at Marquette, many of us have been con- gratulated for achievements accomp- lished or awards won. Now it is for us to reverse the process,to honor some particular man who, in our estimation, has contributed much to the success of our high school days, not only as a teacher and counsellor, but as a companion and friend. Such a man is Father Ward. We first met him as freshmen, when he directed the first hesitating steps in our high school educatknr both in and out of the dassroonr Even then we began to apprecwte him, not only as an outstanding teacher and close friend, but also as a fervent priest of C2od. .As ww advanced beyond our fnst year, Father Ward remained behind with the next freshman class, and yet, in a sense, he did not remain behind. For that moralizing quip, that hearty chuckle, that vvarnr broad smile, all so characteristic of Father Ward, were constantly pres- entin our nnnd. Though cmtmahy ill a few years ago, his determina- tion and undying fight turned back the foe and once nune he reynned us to lead, guide, and inspire us aH on towards our ultimate objectives. It is therefore that we, the senior class of 1955, dedicate this record of our four years here at h4arquette,to a rnan vvho has been a teacher and counsellor to some, to a man who has been a friend and inspiration to us all-Father Vincent J. Ward, S.J. Page 5

Page 6 The Very Rev. L. J. Burns, S.. and The Rev. R. D. McGloin, S.J PROVINCIAL AND PRESIDENT The man shown being welcomed to Marquette University High School by Father McGloin is the first pro- vincial of the Wisconsin Region of the Society of Jesus, the Very Rev. Leo J. Burns, S.J., of Rochester, Minnesota. Father Burns brings to his new post the experience of seven years as assistant provincial of the Missouri Province of the Society. Had We been present at the even- ing meal in any of the numerous Jesuit houses in the Middle West on June 25, 1954, we would have heard an historic announcement read in the dining room. After the black-clad scholastic finished the scripture reading for the day, he raised the letter from the Jesuit provincial of Missouri and read the official notice which brought into being a new division of the four hundred and fourteen year old light cavalry of the Catholic Church-the Wisconsin Region of the Society of Jesus. The new unit was formed because the extensive Missouri Province had increased in membership and work to the point where more efficient control could be had in two inde- pendent units, each functioning with half the tasks formerly assigned to the Missouri Province. Milwaukee has been designated as headquarters since it has been the chief center of Jesuit activity in the north-central states for the past cen- tury. A5 the largest city of Wis- consin and of the five states directly to the west which comprise the area of the new unit, it is a locale rich with apostolic opportunity. In such a commonwealth the Society of Jesus is assured it can, with God's grace and blessing, direct works for His Greater Honor and Glory.
