Text from Pages 1 - 140 of the 1959 volume:

Nineteen Hundred and Fifty- Nine Quincy College Catholic • Franciscan • Co-Educational Quincy, Illinois Foreword The 1959 Gyrfalcon is published with the purpose of capturing this important year between its covers. Just a century ago the Franciscan friars came to the midwest and shortly thereafter founded our college. Since that time, progress has been the keynote. The school year just finished has brought its share of events which we will likely re- member for many years to come. May this volume bridge the past and frequently recall those activities already stored in our memory. Contents . . .

The Very Rev. Pius Barth, O.F.M., Ph.D., Minister Provincial College education is a privilege — not a right. A leader can ' t be satisfied only to acquire informa- tion and develop superficial skills, but he must acquire wisdom to carry out his basic principles and ideas and use his skills for a worthy purpose. — address to students at opening of the 1958-59 school year 6 President . . . I am thoroughly convinced that here at Quincy College we have the kind of education that this country needs badly because we center our education around the very funda- mentals of life. That is why we try so hard to bring in faculty members with the proper ideals and enthusiasm who will be real companions to the stu- dents to help them keep an interest in the finer things of life. — Talk to students at the annual senior banquet THE REV.

In the physical make-up of the senate, there are combined representative groups of students so that a cross-section of student opinion may be gleaned. The representatives are composed of the presidents and senators from each class. Thus, the representatives in the senate are elected by the students. Among the major functions of the senate may be num bered the cooperative effort with the faculty at homecoming, the compilation of statistics for Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities, and the supervision of parents ' week-end in the spring of the year. 52 I THE GREEK COUNCIL SEATED, Left to Right: Alan Underbrink, Louis Feibel, James Heinze,, Charles McMi- chael.

The psychologist who really wishes to seek only the welfare of his patient will be all the more careful to respect the limitations placed upon his actions by morals, since one can say that he holds in his hands the psychic faculties of a man, his capacity of acting freely, of attaining the highest values of his personal destiny and of his social vocation.

It is a distinctive privilege to congratulate each of the graduates of Quincy College. Here is the consecrated culmination of consuming years of continuous academic labors. You have purchased this at a tremendous price. Success does not come easily. This academic achievement is a distinction of the high- est character. Acknowledgement of this accomplishment is rightfully recognized in the granting of your certifi- cates of graduation. This outstanding tribute is further attested by the personal signatures of its illustrious Pres- ident and the highly respected Deans of the Faculty concerned. 06 Bob Hope accepts an honorary Doctor of Letters degree The richly embossed Seal of Quincy College on each graduation parchment is the sacred signet indelibly identifying the distin- guished graduate as a competing champion for the high honors so conspicuously conferred.

The first annual liturgical music workshop was held at the college June 16 — 20 under the direction of Dr. Laverne Wagner and Father Tarsicius Fischer, O.F.M. The busy days were climaxed with a beautiful Mass rendered by the workshop students. For the second summer, Father Elric War- wick, O.F.M., drama instructor, and Mr. Hugh Fitzgerald, of the department of Fine Arts, mentored the dramatic workshop. It was held for two weeks this year and at- tracted members of religious orders from many different sections of the country. Again the students helped in the actual construc- tion of the sets used for the dramatic per- formance and acted in cuttings of several well known dramas.

Franciscan Centennial Observance . . . The solemn commemoration of the 100th anni- versary of the coming of the brown-robed Franciscans to the Middlewest was celebrated at Quincy College on October fourth, fifth, and sixth, 1958. His Excellency, the Most Rev. Albert R. Zuro- weste, Bishop of Belleville, Illinois diocese and a Quincy College alumnus, offered the centennial Pon- tifical High Mass on Oct. 5, 1958, for the local clergy and religious. In a dinner address later in the day, Bishop Zuroweste touchingly commented that some of the tenderest and most blessed memories of my life go back to my days at St. Francis Solanus College where I first came as a boy of 13 in 1914. The times have changed but the spirit of the friars hasn ' t changed. The Most Rev. Augustine Sepinski, O.F.M., Minister Gen- eral of the entire Franciscan Order greets the Very Rev. Pius Barth, O.F.M., Minister Provincial of the St. Louis- Chicago Province in Rome, where they discussed centennial plans. In answer to an appeal for priests from Bishop Damian Juncker of Alton, Illinois, Father Provincial Gregory Janknecht of Warendorf, Germany, sent nine friars who landed at New York harbor on September 14, 1858. It was the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. By December, 1858, the pioneer friars moved into a newly built friary at Teutopolis, Illinois, situated a hundred miles east of St. Louis. Two years later a novitiate house was built, and by 1862 the fathers opened St. Joseph College at Teutopolis, though the Civil War made such a college seem inoppor- tune. Almost immediately after arriving from Germany the fathers opened St. Francis Solanus College (now Quincy College) in 1860 — the oldest Catholic Col- lege in Illinois. 95 Father Owen Blum, O.F.M., professor o f History reviewed the accomplishments of the Franciscans in the last century during a solemn High Mass cele- brated by the Most Reverend Pius Barth, O.F.M., in St. Francis Church. He told a crowded congregation that in the sec- ond century we must spread our efforts to even higher horizons. No prophet could have seen how the small labor of a few pioneers would have grown to apos- tolic labor in twenty-one dioceses and fourteen states. The essential blessing that we have received from the friars is a gem of great price, our Faith, but the inheritance that we received one hundred years ago can be squandered — so our greater task is to the generations yet to come. Father Paul Reinert, S.J., president of St. Louis Univer- sity was guest speaker for the first fall faculty meeting and commented on the centennial observance. In 1873 Quincy College received a legal charter from the state of Illinois, permitting it to confer aca- demic degrees. The college was later officially recog- nized by the University of Illinois, affiliated to the Catholic University of America, and fully accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Father Julian Woods, O.F.M., president, receives the 1959 Illinois license plates from State Secretary Charles Carpen- tier. State representative, Henry Ihnen may be seen in the center.

Roaring Twenties Dance . . . The students of Quincy College had the op- portunity to witness one of the most spectacular events ever to appear on the college scene on December 8, 1958. Wing C of the New Men ' s dormitory took the students and faculty back to the days of the Fabulous ' 20 ' s where the black derby, the chemise and the Charleston were in vosrue. Jim Cuniffe, Edward Murphy and Tom Ochs iron matters out about the functions of the old Model T. Edward Murphy and Sari Shrum received first prize for their memorable outfits. Judy Perko, Sari Shrum, Karen Underbrink and Mary Kane represent the flappers of the period as Tom Ochs looks on from the rear. 97 Wearing his official robe of office for the first time, Judge John T. Reardon extends congratulations to Joseph Anthony upon the receiving of his American citizenship. Joseph Anthony and his recent bride, Norma, utilize the refreshment table, hosted by Celia Aull, presidential sec- retary, and Joyce McElyea, secretary to the registrar, during the evening social. New Citizen . . . On December ninth, Joseph Anthony, freshman and author of the recently written book, The Boy From Korea received his American citizenship. A reception of friends and fellow-students took place in the evening at the college. On the happy occasion, the honorable John T. Rear- don, Judge of the Circuit Court of Adams County, sol- emnly stated, in part, that America offers you much out of her abundant resources, and from her profound belief in the worth and dignity of every man, she offers to you freedom and opportunity, and a full share in all the rights and privileges of self-government. She guaran- tees to each of her citizens that if he wills it, then both materially and spiritually his life can be gloriously fulfilled. In return however, America asks and expects per- sonal character. If we be strong, America will be strong. As we live our lives, so will America live. America expects of you, effort. Work in America is the key to opportunity. One ' s pride is in his own strength and courage, and his will to serve family, community and nation. Joining in the congratulations are, Left to Right, Father Donald Werr, O.F.M., assistant to the president, Mrs. Frank Middendorf, Judge John T. Reardon of the Circuit Court, Father Julian Woods, O.F.M., president, Joseph and Norma Anthony, Chaplain (Lt. Col.) William Powers, deputy staff chaplain of the Alaskan Air Command, Mrs. John Reardon, Mr. and Mrs. Otto Schemming and Mrs. Margaret Norris. The Rev. Gervase Brinkman, O.F.M., retreat master, taught for eleven years at St. Joseph Seminary, Westmont, Illinois; was as- sistant retreat master at Mayslake retreat house for four years, and has served as Catholic Chaplain of Joliet-Stateville Penitentiary since 1947. He is the older brother of Father Gabriel, college chaplain. Student Retreat . . . The annual spiritual retreat for Quincy Col- lege students opened on the eve of Ash Wednes- day and continued for three days. The retreat master was aided by various priest faculty members in the conducting of the spir- itual exercises. A Retreat Is Many Things . A chance to think through problems quietly. Like an army in retreat, an opportunity to check casualties, estimate supplies and compute strength. A getting away from it all for two days to spend time with God. A periodic check-up of the values that really matter. If our car needs it, if our teeth need it, does not also our soul? A refreshening in our mind of the prin- cipal truths of Faith. An aid to the forming of the man or woman that conscience tells us we should be. 99 The decision isn ' t easy. Twelve Angry People . This is a play about twelve people who are angry because their ordinary little lives have been disturbed. They have been sum- moned to jury duty to decide whether a nine- teen year old boy has murdered his father. This play was the. premier production of Progressive Playhouse, a new cultural organi- zation whose theory it is that theater should be welcome as a year-round part of our lives. The drama was directed by Father Elric Warwick, O.F.M., instructor in speech and drama and presented in the college ' s Theatre Intime on January 25, 26, and 27. The sec- ond production, The Desperate Hours was staged successfully in April for three succes- sive nights. ' Now let ' s review the farts of the case once more. 100 ' I say he ' s guilty.

On the evening of Sunday, February 8, the social hall was the scene of the honoring of two Quincy College alumni, the dean, and nine senior students by inducting them into Delta Epsilon Sigma, na- tional scholastic honor society. Professor Marshall Smelser, Ph.D., professor of history of the University of Notre Dame and Profes- sor Paul Jacoby, Ph.D., chairman of the department of philosophy at Seton Hill College, received alumni membership into the society. In the society ' s open presidential address, Father Owen Blum, O.F.M., Ph.D., told the purposes of the organization, saying, Our country is desperately in need of high quality in its academic life to under- stand our past, interpret the present, and prepare for our ultimate goals in the future. The presidential address. Delta Epsilon Sigma was founded in 1939 and its 77th chapter was established at Quincy College in 1956. Standing faculty membership in Gamma Eta Chap- ter of Delta Epsilon Sigma, voted by the faculty of Quincy College, is held by the Rev. Francis B. Steck, O.F.M., Ph.D., Rev. Owen J. Blum, O.F.M., Ph.D., president, Rev. Pacific L. Hug, O.F.M., Ph.D., vice president, and Rev. Titus Ludes, O.F.M., Ph.D., secre- tary. Dr. Paul Jacoby ' 37, is received into the society by presi- dent, Father Owen Blum, O.F.M. 102 Student membership in Delta Epsilon Sigma is voted to outstanding members of the senior class. Winners of this award must have maintained a 3.3 cumulative average during three years of residence at Quincy. The group inducted presented an inter- esting cross-section of student academic achievement, in that the nine seniors hold- ing the required scholastic average repre- sented nine distinct fields of concentration. Father Titus, Father Owen and Father Pacific listen as Dr. Mar- shall Smelser ' 35, reads his research paper on the founding of the American Navy.

Honors During the fall semester, a group of Honors Courses was introduced to the students of Quincy College. Students with a 3.0 or better scholastic av- erage were invited to participate in the new endeavor by its inaugurator, Father Victor Hermann, O.F.M. Students without the 3.0 average were also allowed to participate if they showed serious interest. Mr. Hugh Fitzgerald awaits an answer to a thought-provoking question. The Honors class of Father Owen Blum, O.F.M., gets a laugh from one of the lecture notes. 104 Courses Waiting for an answer, Fr. Joachim Daleiden, O.F.M., fidgets with a piece of paper in his freshman- sophomore colloquium. Such courses as The Great Books Colloquium, Religion and Cul- ture, The Meaning of Freedom, The Man in Medieval Society, and discussions of Sorokin ' s Crisis of Our Age and Four Great Novels were studied. Each course was worth one semester hour of credit. Leading the various discussions were Father Gabriel Brinkman, O.F.M., Father Joachim Daleiden, O.F.M., Father Owen Blum, O.F.M., Father Pacific Hug, O.F.M., Father Titus Ludes, O.F.M., Father Thomas Brown, O.F.M., and Mr. Hugh Fitzgerald. A popular studying place for all Quincy College students, whether or not participants in the Honors Courses, is the library. 105 Marie McMullen takes over the third grade at Madison School as majors began their pedagogic experience by her supervisor, Miss Marguerite Recker, pauses to talk to the Q.C. participating in the practice-teaching pro- Education Department head, Fr. Titus. gram under the auspices of the Quincy Col- lege education department and the Quincy Board of Education. All students in the field of education eventually have the opportunity to partici- pate in the practice-teaching program. The student usually expresses an interest in a particular grade and is then appointed on the basis of aptitude and subject matter be- ing taught. Before actually teaching, student practice- teachers have a brief period of observation in which they note procedures and tech- niques of the supervising teacher. After re- ceiving classroom responsibility, the practice- teacher is free to follow the supervisor ' s methods of instruction, or to launch into a method of his or her own as long as it meets with the approval of the college and the classroom supervisors. The aim of this program and experience is the observation and gradual introduction to full-time duties of classroom procedure. Kathy McLean observes the teaching technique of her supervisor at Quincy High School, Mr. Fred Bloss. 106 One of his English students receives personal attention from Al Foehring at Quincy High School.

Under the direc- tion of the Rev. Elric Warwick, O.F.M., instructor in speech and drama, the production was presented November 5 through November 9 in the Quincy College Theatre — Intime. Basically a romantic comedy, the plot centers around a shipwreck which occurs upon the shores of an enchanted isle that is ruled by an exiled Duke. Dramatic and hu- morous complications set in when it becomes apparent that the shipwrecked crew included the Duke ' s enemy and his son. Dancing and an original musical score composed by Paul SafTran, Quincy College student, highlighted the play. Final scene ot play as hero. Prospcro, prepares to leave. 112 Ye Elves of hills . . .

The Fine Arts Department of Quincy College pre- sented T. S. Eliot ' s Murder in the Cathedral in the college Theatre Intime Feb. 25 through Feb. 28. Poet Laureate Eliot ' s play is a searching examina- tion into one of Christian history ' s most sacrilegious murders — the martyrdom of Archbishop Thomas Becket in his cathedral on Dec. 29, 1170. It is a mys- tery but not in the twentieth century mode: a man is murdered and the criminals are known — only the reason forms the play ' s argument. Eliot bor- rowed the direct theatricality of Shakespeare and the Greeks in composing his modern classic. This in- cludes the use of the Grecian chorus to aid the tale in its telling. This production of the famous Canterbury Festi- val play was directed by Mr. Hugh Fitzgerald, in- structor in drama. Father Elric Warwick, O.F.M., designed and constructed a single unit set which ac- centuated the dramatic power of the play by its simplicity and symbolism.

The band was composed of one hundred and twenty-five select high school musicians. A unique feature of this year ' s festival was that the par- ticipating students had not seen the music they played until the day of the festival.

Tennessee State Tigers won over the Western Illinois Leathernecks in a record breaking scoring contest, 114 — 54. Each of the three nights, the teams played to a capacity crowd of 2800 in the Quincy College Memorial gymnasium. As was to be expected the court action was fast and spectacular and local promoters beat the drums for the event as the nation ' s outstanding small col- lege tournament. No fan who attended the games would have accused the sponsors of false advertising. The fifth playing of the tournament included all new teams except the host, Quincy College. Each year the tournament has had a different champion. The Mart Heinen Club under the tourney chair- manship of Elvin Tappe, .former Quincy College Hawk star and now coach of the Chicago Cubs, rep- resents a cross-section of Quincy sports fans who ar- ranged for the complete enjoyment of the more than one hundred players, coaches, and school representa- tives in Quincy for the four days. Two special features of the tournament were the smoker in the American Legion hall, and the press and coaches breakfast at the Lincoln-Douglas hotel. At the press and coaches breakfast, Al Duer, execu- tive secretary of the National Association of Inter- collegiate Athletics, was the featured speaker. Duer stressed the theory that athletics are a great unifying force and that the efforts of civic groups and the backing of fans in the various cities make the events successful. All-tournament players received miniature basketballs from the Rev. Julian Woods, Quincy College president.

A. flavor as three former presidents of national organization got together between games with A.O. (Al) Duer, N.A.I.A. executive secretary. Pictured (Left to Right) are Joe Hutton, Hamline athletic director and coach; Ray Hanson, Western Illinois athletic director; Duer, who was formerly athletic director at Pepper- dine College in California, and Bill Herington, Culver-Stockton athletic di- rector and coach. Dick Barnett, Tennessee State ' s 6 ' 2 senior, was a unanimous choice as the Quincy Col- lege basketball tournament ' s most valuable player. Dick lived up to his rating as one of the nations finest as he averaged more than 34 points a game. The choice was made by a seven-man committee which included press and radio representatives. Dual meet start against Illinois Normal. Quincy runners seen are Don Kabbes, Jerry Beenders and Bob Cull. Track and Cross-Country . . . Quincy College participated in seven cross- country meets this year; four of them being home meets and three away. The largest meet was at Homecoming when the first Quincy In- vitational Cross-Country meet was established. Letter winners of the season were Bob Cull, junior; Gary McBride, sophomore; Captain elect for ' 59) Jim Ribbe, sophomore; and the season ' s record was 4 Wins and 10 Losses. The track squad, perhaps the most under- rated team in our athletic system, had a suc- cessful season. Quincy Johnson received the lion ' s share of the plaudits, but Mike Gelven pushed him in the 100, 220, and the broad jump. John Zuzevich was consistent in the pole vault and weight events and occasionally endangered the high jumper ' s peace of mind with 5 ' 8 leaps. Track is possibly the most demanding of all sports both in physical labor and mental strain, and Coach Ortwerth led his men so that they were equal to the challenge.

Tennis . . . The 1958 tennis squad was the first inter-collegiate activity in that sport for the college an d the racketeers did a reasonably good job, turning in a season ' s record of six wins and five losses. The lettermen included Bob Pfyl, Chuck Kerker- ing, Frank Frawley, Larry Brinkman, Ron Altstadt, and Roger Frankenhoff. The only senior letterman was Frank Frawley. The 1959 season has looked bright, although with the start of the second semester Ron Altstadt and Larry Brinkman were the only two net-men returnees. However, Kent Stickler, an outstanding Quincy High net-man ' has taken up a good deal of the slack for the Hawks. Matches this spring included Western Illinois, Culver-Stockton, Carthage, Washington University, MacMurray, and St. Louis University.

Golf Under the tutorship of Larry Moller, Quincy College began its intercollegiate golf activities in 1958. The team ' s record, excluding the southern trip, was seven wins and five losses — a fairly successful season! The golf team takes a breather in Hammond, Louisiana during last year ' s spring trip tour South. Around the golf course the easy way. Quincy College will be host for the N.A.I. A. golf championship to be held here starting June 16, with between 90 and 120 top college golfers expected to take part. The four day tourney will consist of 72 holes of medal play, with entrants from a majority of the 32 N.A.I. A. districts. The choice of Quincy as the tournament site can be looked upon as both an honor and an opportunity for the college and the city. 128 _ Baseball . . . The 1958 edition of the Quincy College Hawks was the first team in Hawk history to make a south- ern trip to Dixie. The team played in Nashville, Biloxi, and New Orleans among their stops in the South. The nine won and 15 lost rec- ord was a considerable improve- ment over the 1 — 6 record of the previous year. Highlights were victories in two of three from arch-rival Western Illinois and a victory over Arkan- sas State, who had just beaten NCAA runner-up, Missouri. Individual leaders were paced by Captain elect Ken Niebrugge who connected for a solid .344 batting average, and led the team in total hits and stolen bases. Niebrugge was selected by his mates as the team ' s most valuable player. Also in the select group of .300 hitters, was Don Kabbes, sopho- more shortstop, who batted .305. Leading the extra George Schleuter touches home plate as Stan Schaeffer f ollows closely behind in a varsity game against Kiesler Air Force Base at Biloxi, Mississippi. base hit parade was Jerry Beenders with six doubles, three triples and two homers. Leroy Seiffert paced the Hawks in RBI ' s with .27. Pitching leadership was shared by senior Paul Klockenkemper and freshman Rich Stephan, both racking up three victories. 1958 BASEBALL SQUAD, FIRST ROW, Left to Right: Tom Risch, manager, Jim Eisenbath, Warren Putnam, Rodney Birk, Jim Ribbe, Jim Wise, Bob Mihlbachler and Ken Niebrugge.

Scene of one of the ball games against Southeastern Louisiana University was this famous stadium in Hammond, Louisiana. In the rough at Evansville, Indiana. On the ferry at New Orleans. Stopping for a breather at Jonesboro, Arkansas. A moment of leisure for the teams down South. 132 I AMERICAN YEARBOOK COMPANY
