His hair displays a certain lofty elation, which is commonly attributed to self-centered and egotistical people. However, he shows none of the characteristics of this class. On the contrary, we maintain that this is the result of his centered activities; namely, center on the football and basketball teams and center-field on the baseball team. It will suffice to say that a Senior president, who continually associates with lower classmen, who delivers journals to his neighbors before sunrise, and who runs marathon races for little or no remuneration, can not possibly have an exaggerated opinion of himself. No, [ohn is very democratic. President of the Senior Cla Sodality Football 1. 2. :• . 4 Basketball 4 ((. ipt.) Ranger Sta Youth Let ' s Go ' R Club Pagi Thirty-two Leo J. Rabtoay Denver. Colorado R AB is the gentleman who so actively and so ably carried the coveted number one upon his back during those hectic Saturday afternoons of last autumn. But Leo, like many another mighty warrior, has a glaring weakness. This weakness was made plainly apparent by his action in getting off a train in the middle of the night to send a telegram home , as he so originally explained it. Those, who always seem to know about such things, are giving odds that Leo will beat his fellows vo the altar by a distance equal to that between Thirty-seven street cars, which would be quite a beating to administer to any one. But this husky president of the Delta Sigmas must be resigned to his fate, for he seems to have lost none of the pep and cheerfulness, which have characterized him ever since he was a lowlv Freshman.

New Mexico LIVING in a room with south and west exposures would seem to be a sufficient reason why he should become popular with those students, who believe that common discussion is superior to individual application, as a means in the pursuit of an education. But we know that the learned gatherings in John ' s room were due more t6 the genial hospitality of that quondam golfer, than to the architectural plan of his domicile. It may be said, in passing, that his coffee is above the average, and flows as freely as the Spanish, with which he impresses the more gullible of the Freshmen. In one of her lighter moods Terpsichore smiled on our John, and, as a result, he is a shining example to his none too light-footed fellows. He is also quite a second- story man when the occasion demands. Witness the mosaic of foot-marks on the Carroll Hall porch.

But when the musician in question combines his lustiness with no little amount of skill, he ceases to be material for undergraduate attempts at humor and, instead, becomes a respected member of the community. Tommy has added to his respect by his efforts to rouse phlegmatic students to an interest in the missions. He has kept at his task with a characteristic intentness of purpose, which has helped establish the Mission Unit as a permanent fixture among Regis activities. We hope to see Tommy often in the days to come, but we sincerely pray that he never gets on our trail with one of out- unpaid bills in his hand.

It is also evident that he possesses a physiognomy, which, we feel, would he held in esteem by even the most exacting member of the critical sex. Between solving enemy formations, and bringing the ever-anxious Wolves to a realization of the difference between a punt and the water bucket, Joe found time to impart some of his knowledge to a hardy band of young Rangers who were a credit to their mentor on all occasions. It has been whispered among those who usually know, that Joe is susceptible to feminine charms. No wonder he is so conscientious about learning how to manipulate those accounting problems.

Perhaps the relative freedom of left-field when compared to one of Charley ' s daily rides gives him the incentive to cover so ably those far reaches for the Rangers.

As manager of the football team, he calmed wild-eyed underclassmen athletes, who seemed obsessed with the idea that the non-acquisition of a new pair of sw r eatsocks was the only thing which was keeping them off the All- American team. His tact and diplomacy were such, that he made to appear easy a task, which would have driven a less able person to parsing Latin verbs in his sleep. Rumor has it that Vince intends to flirt longer with the Muses with the intention of joining the ranks of the barristers.

However, our error may be excused in view of the tales, with which Jack continually regaled us, of the marvelous feats performed by the he-men of Wyoming. But by no means did the loquacious Jack confine himself to this theme, for he treated of a variety of subjects, holding us at cimes by the very eloquence of his words. But with us, mere males that we are. Jack has just been warming up, so it is said. According to reliable sources. Jack has saved his most choice thoughts and his most grandiose style for the members of the other sex. In order to fulfill his social obligations with the proper pomp and style, he bought a so-called automobile with which he has proceeded to nick every tree on the campus, causing a person to believe readily that he possesses a fondness, and a need, for the wide-open spaces.

Colorado WHEN .in inquiring student wishes to find out a bit of information about the history of Regis in years gone by, he is immediately referred to Lombardi, a gentleman who defends the ideals and traditions of another day against the cynicism of the rising generation. Tom has won more letters on Regis athletic teams than has any one in its history, but it would be unfair to him, besides giving a wrong impression of the trend of collegiate thought, to dilate upon his athletic prowess and to forget his other accomplishments. He attacks those problems about which the Delta Sigmas make so much fuss, with a sangfroid which is the envy of less gifted class-mates. Recently we saw some workmen removing some of our campus landmarks in the shape of a few old trees, and we thought of the passing of Lombardi. Make your own allegories, puns, or what have you.

Colorado FROM the distant halls of Holy Cross in Boston this unobtrusive young man came to us to complete his pedagogical preparations. Whether or not he selected our high school for his purpose of practice teaching because of the tractability of its students is not known, but he seems to have progressed very well with them. The fact that we did not feel his presence among us as much as if he were a common, toiling undergraduate does not lessen our feeling for him, but adds to the aura which we feel surrounds one who has completed a task whose end we have not yet reached. RSS Page ¥orty- SR Harold E. McCain Houlton. Maine HAILING from the famous rock-bound coast of Maine , Harold enjoys the somewhat dubious distinction of being our most distant student. Of course, we use this adjective as descriptive of the number of miles traveled in reaching our halls and not as characterization. The student who answers the phone and receives a call for Mr. McCain also will have something to say about this distant business, after he has climbed all the way up to three thirty-three. But, of course, the student always climbs the weary steps without a grumble, because he knows that the editor of The Brown and Gold could have none but important business to transact. We hope that Harold can borrow or beg his carfare home when his days among us come to an end in June, for we hear that he is skeptical of free rides ever since a famous box-car excursion took place.

With that old eyeshade pulled a little further down on his forehead, and with that familiar pipe going full blast (prob- ably to discourage prospective visitors) he cheerfully sits down to his task. We, his chroniclers, suddenly realized that this young man has no deep, dark past which we might throw up to the public gaze. So we hastened forth to unearth some forgotten secret, but at the end of an hour the only thing we found out was that he once asked Abreu for a chew, which act gives us an insight to the moral courage of the man. Besides explaining a few absences from class this clue leads us nowhere. Perhaps the reason for this strange silence might be Taos or points south. We will let the future unravel the mystery for us.

Especially is this so in the case of such a gallant as Leo, who has always taken it upon himself to entertain in no mean fashion the young ladies, who frequently take part in our theatricals. If our memory serves us aright, Leo was a little imp in one of those productions, but it did not take him long to get out of character — not more than a semester anyway. The yearly oratorical contest has afforded an outlet for Leo ' s masterful style of oratory. If he ever follows Blackstone, his services will be eagerly sought by those of the class who fall afoul of the statutes. i S ' Let ' s G l R Cornelius Murphy Butte, Montana CON st ity, al seems to bear the cares of life on his broad shoulders with classic equanim- dthough some of the linemen, who have apposed him, probably entertain no such memories of him. Though he came to us as a Junior, he made up for lost time bv quickly winning himself a high place in our esteem both bv his actions on the held and in the classroom. As becomes an upperclassman he is one of those quiet, dignified fellows whom we read about in books, but so very seldom see in actuality. He has established himself as undisputed champion for the number of phone calls received, proving again that these quiet fellows must be watched. Page Forty-fire William J.

But Bill exhibits none of the supposed eccentricities of his tribe; he lacks even the traditional hair-cut. He is actually as conventional as any student on the campus, which may or may not mean a great deal. We thought we had detected a trace of a slip on Bill ' s part, when we heard that he had tried to stick his hand through a brick wall, but later found out that it was just one of the trifling incidents which occurred during the War of the Winter of 926-1927, the year of the memorable indoor league. We hear that Murphy aspires to be a second Westbrook Pegler, or at least an Arthur Brisbane. Go to it. Bill, we need more lefthanded journalists. Sodality Youth Let ' s Go ' Baseball 1. 2, 3.

He was also responsible for bringing that diminutive, roaring, loud-colored imitation of an automobile on the campus. In the minds of some, this last named offense was sufficient to erase all the accomplishments of a hitherto model existence. However, fate intervened and when last heard of, his yellow-peril was discarded somewhere between Denver and Pueblo.

The first time we heard this outburst we thought it was a plan on the part of Eddie to get some saxophone practice during class hours, but we later found out that our Eddie is above any such deceit. He waits until at least hve of his nearest neighbors are enjoying their afternoon siesta before he brings his favorite instrument into action. Eddie has been known to descend to golf, but such lapses have been but momentary falls from the path of virtue, and we can still vouch for his integrity.

Wobido Denver, Colorado HAVING his name continually mispronounced seems to have no effect on the genial Leo, other than to cause him to peer over his shell-rimmed glasses with a look of temporary annoyance which is less due to the mistreatment of family name than to regret at being interrupted just at the moment when the hero is perform- ing an exceptional!} ' difficult rescue, in those books which Leo so diligently and so incessantly peruses. In spite of the atmosphere of cosmopolitanism which one would imagine to be surrounding so diligent a reader as Leo, he still smokes a cigarette as if it were a dangerous plaything, instead of an innocent roll of tobacco. His technique or rather lack of it in this respect has become classic, as also has his ability to hold his own in various discussions which are, as we all know, an integral part of student life. R!

Walsh, 0 Presidenl OFFICERS Joseph J. Walsh President William Early Vice-president R. Paul Horan Secretary Paul V. Dunn Treasurer THE realization of the ideals and the furtherance of the work of the alumni associa- tion of any small college is difficult, to say the least. A variety of circumstances present themselves to hinder the task which a diligent and enthusiastic few try to cany on. Scarcity of numbers is an ogre of despair which is banished only by a heart) spirit of goodwill and cooperation. The Alumni Association of Regis College has always demonstrated this spirit by backing every Regis activity for which their aid was enlisted. The Regis Athletic Association which has done marvelous work in promoting the welfare of Regis College finds much of its strength in the ranks of the Alumni Association. The bringing together of the Alumni at a banquet given by the school authorities last spring served to reawaken a spirit which had tended to lie dormant. The installation of new officers and the appointment of a new faculty director added the necessary stimulus for the formation of a more compact and useful organization. There fol- lowed a banquet welcoming the graduating class into the ranks of the Association — a procedure which, it is hoped, will be an annual affair. Pagt Si l Lilt) -tun It is the plan of the faculty director to bind the members of the separate classes into so many compact, vet facile, units. By a gradual welding process these units will be merged into a larger and better Alumni Association, the supposition being that once the individual classes are organized, the consequent consolidation into a single group will be to a great extent simplified. A long felt want has been the existence of . n official Alumni bulletin which would inform the members of the activities of their organization, afford a medium for the promotion of Alumni undertakings, and help to disseminate a knowledge of the ideals of the Association and of Regis College. It would serve as a reminder and as an oppor- tunity for keeping in touch with those known in the days when A system of establishing life memberships in the Association on the payment of a nominal sum would be a means of furnishing the necessary funds — that stumbling block of many good intentions. Regis spirit has a chance to show itself in this proposed undertaking. A phase of Alumni activity which we are glad to say has always been zealously undertaken by loyal members is the attraction of new students to Regis by making known to them the opportunities and advantages which are to be found at Regis. Having once been in a position to realize the benefits and pleasures of an education received in a college where the might of numbers has not turned the education of its students into a process akin to the work of an automaton, the Alumni of Regis have been, and we hope will continue to be, potent factors in the continued growth and success of Regis College.

Moderator THE Sodality of the Blessed Virgin Mary is almost as old as Jesuit education. It is, in fact, a school within a school, and has a two-fold objective, the sanctity of its members and the formation of spiritual leaders. Loyalty to Christ and the cause for which He died is its badge. Hence it is not strange that Christ ' s Mother is its Patroness and that much of the devotion it engenders is directed to Her. Whosoever comes to Mary cannot fail to come to Christ. Whosoever is taught of Mary will under- stand aright eternal values. Sodalists pledge weekly communion and faithful attendance at the weekly meetings. The former entails a struggle for cleanliness of soul and the latter calls for the sacrifice of precious spare moments, but sacrifice is the strong food of devotion. But the true sodalist does not stop here. His ambition is to serve, and so, when occasion offers, we see him giving unstintingly of his time and talent to instructing the ignorant, helping the needy, and assisting the missioner in his arduous duty of spreading Christ ' s Kingdom on earth.

The officers of the Regis Sodality together with one representative from each of the Sodalities of the Denver Unit form the Executive Council. The Spiritual Union is the result of the untiring work of Father Lord to unite the Catholic Youth of America in a closer and firmer bond, thus laying the foundation for a more perfect union of Catholic men and women in the succeeding years. The Sodality forms the individual school unit of the Union. Special Committees are formed to carry on the many duties of the Unit in an organized and efficient way. The Mission, Eucharistic, Our Lady ' s, and the Publicity Committees have been organized and have experienced a signal success. In order to stimulate the individual units, SPONTANEITY PLUS, a monthly bulletin composed of the reports of the activities of all the units, is issued bv the Regis Sodality. 22JI5R Page Eighty-two I!

Cell; OFFICERS Eugene Judge President Joseph Cell a Secretary Thomas Batt Treasurer THE Regis Mission Society is a unit of the Catholic Students ' Mission Crusade. Its purposes .ire to spread the Church among pagans; to interest the students in certain definite home and foreign missions; to help those missions with prayers and contributions, and to increase the apostolic zeal and generosity of the students. The methods by which these aims are accomplished are: cooperation with all mission organizations; adoption of a mission or missionary; mission bulletins; prayers and contributions; stamp collections, and a study of the missions through mission literature. This latter aim is based on the principle that to study the missions is to know them, to know them is to love them, and to love them is to serve them. The great number of Communicants at the altar rail each Wednesday, Mission Communion Day, was evidence that the collegians had the mission cause sincerely at heart, and realized the value of spiritual offerings for the success of God ' s own work. Mission literature has received attention throughout the year in order to spread the stories of the Fields Afar. Besides the collection of mission mites, money has been raised by saving stamps, which were sent to St. Louis and disposed of at a fine profit. It is our earnest prayer that God ' s cause, the conversion of the pagan, will receive from Regis students even greater cooperation than that displayed during the year 1927-1928.

The committee has attempted to attain its goal and give direction to the students by various methods. A record of the number of communicants receiving at the college Mass was ppsted daily, and it was hoped that by this means the interest of the student body would be aroused and that the number of daily communicants would be increased. Visits to the Chapel were urged both bv bulletin and personal appeal. The committee, though yet in its infancy, has given promise of a rosy future. The manner in which its first efforts have been received lends encouragement to its members and points the way to continued success. ;R ?agt Eighty- R: Our Lady ' s Committee j in. A. M. Chair McCari Secretar THIS branch of the Sodality was organized a short time after the Rev. Daniel A. Lord, S.J., conducted his school in Sodality organization at Regis. The purpose of the committee is to stimulate the sodalist ' s devotion to Our Lady, and to organize it so as to bring Her into the daily life of each socialist. One of the principal means employed is to have the sodalist ' s fervor and frequency, in reciting the office, the rosary, and the other prayers favorite to Mary, increased by the example and ideal set by the committee. Another means is to promote proper celebrations of Her feasts by processions and crownings, and to keep Her altar cared for especially on Her feast days and during the month of May. These last two means are quite important due to the fact that they produce a visible and telling effect upon outsiders and thereby increase the Sodality ' s prestige in college life. Sponsored by this committee, a plan was launched by all the sodalists of Denver to conduct a solemn crowning of the Blessed Virgin on Mother ' s Day, May 13. This united effort was the first of its kind to be attempted in this district. Publicity Committee 3 Is , i p M P || III 1. McCa Secretan Murphy T. Dc THIS group may be called the advertising agency of the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin. It is in charge of keeping Sodality news before the members, of creating and stimulating interest by spiritual advertising and of spreading Catholic truth by writing and public speaking. From the time of its organization the work of the committee has progressed rapidly. A bulletin board was placed in a prominent position and was kept up to date with various articles, clippings, pictures, and news items of interest to the sodalists, with the purpose of increasing their knowledge of the Church and the Sodality. Owing to the lateness of its organization, the committee has been pressed for time to fulfill all of its obligations. Page Eight) -eight RS League of the Sacred Heart Reverend J. F. Bergin. S. Director AMONG the religious activities at Regis College, the League of the Sacred Heart holds a prominent place as a means of promoting a strong, healthy. Catholic spirit, and encouraging private and public devotion. Although the organization meets but once a month, its influence is felt daily through the reminder of the morning offering by which the students dedicate all their thoughts, words, and actions of the day to the Sacred Heart. By this offering they supernaturalize their indifferent acts, and thus make them profitable for everlasting life. On the first Friday of each month all the students receive Holy Communion. On the same day they meet in the chapel for special devotions to the Sacred Heart. A short instruction by the director on the special intention of the month is followed by Benedic- tion. It is the aim of the director to keep before the students the benefits that are derived by membership in the League of the Sacred Heart. The new feature of the League Leaflets in proposing a special mission intention each month has been welcomed by the students, and its effect has been noticeable in the increased interest in foreign missions. Thus has the watchword of the League, Thy Kingdom Come, taken on a new significance for many Regis students. Page Eighty-nine Razzer Club THE Razzer Club, organized in September, 1923, is the oldest active pep and booster club of the school. The purposes of the organization are to promote the true Regis spirit among the students, to act as cheer leaders at all athletic games, and to interest all in Regis activities. The club membership is limited to fifty so that only those will be on the roll who can and will boost Regis enterprises by active attendance and cooperation. The candidates for admission into the club are chosen from the Freshmen at the begin- ning of each school year to fill the vacancies. A period of three months is set aside during which the candidates prove themselves worthy of membership by their attendance at Regis activities, scholastic, forensic, and athletic, and by their active cooperation in boosting the school. The uniform, consisting of white trousers, dark coat, and brown and gold fez, is the distinguishing feature of the members at all contests at which they appear in a body. Rallies, contests, and dances for the purpose of injecting pep and interest, have been sponsored by the club. From the time of their organization the members have gained a remarkable reputa- tion as the leaders and promoters of Regis spirit. OFFICERS William P. Maginnis President Thomas H.

During the past year the club fostered many activities such as dances, smokers, tournaments and the like. In the Intramural basketball tourney they won one game from the Regis Razzers but lost to the Freshman Class, the winners of the tournament. The publication each year of a handbook containing the Constitution and By-laws with a complete directory of the names and addresses of all Lambda Tau men, serves to keep the club in closer touch with the old members. The spirit of loyalty to the club and to the school has been the big factor in the development of the Lambda Tau. from a handful of serious workers the club has grown, in the short space of two years, to one of the strongest organizations on the campus. It has weathered the storms that tend to wreck such an enterprise, and with the history it has established for itself, it should develop synchronously with the develop- ment of Alma Mater. Cooperation has made the club what it is, and it can make it what each member wishes it to become, a greater club in a greater Regis. Harold E. McCain President Raymond J.

The desire for such a course on the part of the students was evidenced by the large initial enrollment. The suggestion of organizing a club for students of the new department was received with approval and plans were made for its inauguration. A Constitution with By-laws was drawn up and the name Delta Sigma was selected. On December 8th, 1926, a charter was granted to the Delta Sigma Commerce and Finance Club of Regis College. Thus came into existence the first charter club in the history of the school. The club has for its purpose the creation of a closer bond of friendship between the students, the fostering of business and social activities, and the promotion ot Commerce and Finance education. During the year the club invites men of well known business ability to give talks of interest on financial matters to the student body. It arranges inspection tours to th: various industrial plants of Denver and vicinity. It sponsors social entertainments such as smokers, banquets, and dances.

Semi-public debates followed by open-house discussions on subjects announced by the Moderator are held every two weeks. Under such a procedure the timid speaker finds his opportunity, and many a promising orator has been developed thereby.

Doyle THE thirty-ninth annual elocution contest marked one of the most novel and pleasant surprises of the year — a complete program of Shakespearian selections. This departure from the pathetic and sanguinary selections usually found on e locution programs was welcomed with gracious approval. James Doyle, with his clear ringing voice, his curved and graceful gestures, took first place, thereby receiving the gold medal presented by the Denver Council of the Knights of Columbus. Having Jacques ' speech from As You Like It as his selection, Austin Trolan, with consummate artistry, proved himself a true comedian and compelled the judges to award him second honors.

Neary THE annual oratorical contest was held Sunday, December eleventh, at the Regis auditorium. The event was met with the usual enthusiasm and the auditorium was filled with an eager crowd. The distinguished judges were Mr. John Lynch, Dr. A. J. Hart, and Mr. Godfrey Schirmer. J. Fred Schmelzer was the first to speak. His oration on The Atmosphere of Education was straight-forward and forceful. Albert E. Zarlengo ' s Education and Character was the second oration rendered. His manner and style were smooth, strong, and impressing. Thirteenth, Greatest of Centuries was given with great solemnity by Robert A. Neary. Elis well chosen expressions and descriptions actually brought back the atmosphere of the thirteenth century and vivified its greatness. Mr. Henry E. Zarlengo spoke on Americanism and Education. His oration stressed modern degeneracy and pointed to its solution. Thomas A. Doran climaxed the program with his Essence of Education. A polished manner, an emotional rendition, and real oratorical ability won for him the Rt. Rev. Bishop Tihen Medal, awarded for oratorical excellency. Robert A. Neary merited the J. Richard Stanko Memorial Medal for the lust oration on Catholic Education. 28 E Pagt One Hundred Four RS Glee Club HAND in hand with the orchestra, the Glee Club has served its purpose as a musical organization.

In previous years every one realized its need, and there was much speculation, but not until this year did a Regis Band become an actuality. Our teams have formerly gone to conquest without that universally recognized aid to undaunted fight, that inexplicable yet encouraging spirit which grips the hearts of heroes and urges them on to victory, that animation which banishes the least timidity and incites men to action — the strains of a spirited march or college song. Even at its initial appearance it played itself into favor with the student body and all Regis patrons and boosters. It has met with success, it has established for itself a notable reputation. But in sounding its praises let us not forget to mention the one through whose tireless energy and steady determination the potential has become actual, its organizer and director. With such a distinctive birth surelv the band must have a wonderful future. The impetus of this year ' s accomplishments alone would carry it far into the future, for an organization with such a remarkable beginning could scarcely become a thing of the past. We can rest assured that the college band will always be one of the main organiza- tions of this school. T. Batt C. O ' Malley T. Rosso N |. MOKASKY L. Burger D. CONNOLE BAND E. Fitzgerald C.

The Razzers chose as the place for their dance the College Gymnasium. Decorations were elaborately and attractively carried out in Brown and Gold, the drooping streamers swayed above the merr} makers while the hanging lights cast their shaded rays upon the swaying throng, as they danced to the mellow tunes of the Colorado Royals. The next success was an interfraternity pledge dance sponsored by the Lambda Tau and Delta Sigma. The Regis Hall was again selected as the place for the affair. The Purple and White streamers, the Delta Sigma colors, and the Blue and Red of the Lambda Tau, worn by the pledges, formed a striking contrast with the delicate shades used to beautify the scene. As the midnight hour approached, the strains of Home Sweet Home were heard, the Ten Kings ceased to play, the happy couples departed, and the hall in its splendor was deserted. The Lambda Tau Dance at the Cathedral Ball Room of the Albany Hotel next lured the collegians to don their finest and journey forth into the night, braving the wintry blasts, to call upon their ladies fair. The crystal chandeliers, twinkling, scin- tillating, were reflected in the mirrors which encircled the ball room. The variety of colors and designs of the decorations recalled the enchanted scenes of childhood tales. We were, as if by the magic of Aladdin ' s lamp, transformed from earthly searchers after knowledge, into gnomes, made to dwell in the land of the fairies. Then came Spring with all its beauties, carrying with it the irony of fate. It warned us that the end of the scholastic year was fast approaching and that the illustrious members of the class of ' 2 8 would soon depart, leaving behind them only their memories, and good wishes to those who would be called upon to carry on their work. It was in their honor that the Junior Prom, described in another place, was given. It will suffice to say that the dance was in keeping with the dignity of the distinguished class of ' 2 8, and added another jewel of success to the crown of the class of ' 29. The Freshmen were now awakening to the meaning of the word, college, other than defined by Webster, and came forth with the announcement that plans had been made for the Frosh Hop. The sophisticated upper-classmen looked askance at the bulletins reminding them of the affair, but the enthusiasm displayed by the Yearlings forced us to encourage them by our attendance. The hop was held at the Broadmoor Country Club on May 14, 1928. Judging from the number of couples present, and their smiling faces, one knew that the Freshmen had succeeded in their undertaking. They had tasted of the Cup of Knowledge and now were feasting on the glories of success. The dance is ended, but the melody lingers on. P i , i),:, Hmidrea i R5S T J-Hop COMMITTEE Adrian Maguire, Chairman Austin Trolan Raymond Connablt Eddie Mack Maurice Goldberg Joseph Sherman RADITION at Regis demanded that the Junior Class be the hosts to the Seniors, and though in previous years the Junior dance has been the outstanding social event of the year, the one to which the class of ' 2 8 were invited was the most borate affair in many moons. T Sparing nothing to make the dance worth) ' of its name, the Junior class had the Broadmoor Country Club attractively decorated in the school colors and with such a lighting effect as to lend an enhancing atmosphere to the natural beauty of the place. The Broadmoor orchestra outdid themselves in their efforts to furnish varieties of music- desired by the happy collegians. The strains of a beautiful waltz plus the attractive surroundings made dancing irresistable. Even the sedate Seniors who felt their im- portance at this occasion, were on the floor from the beginning of the evening until the last strains of melody died away. || The special dance for the Seniors and Juniors allowed these lucky individuals an opportunity to disport themselves and the ladies of their choice before the eyes of the lower classmen, who remained at their tables out of respect to age and position. Sitting at their tables, the under-classmen conjured up pictures of the day, not far off, when they would be in the same place looking at new faces and experiencing the real thrill of such an occasion. Mingling with the cheerful crowd were many of the alumni who set aside one night each year and become the carefree collegians, who only a short while ago were experienc- ing the thrill of their first Junior dance. The Junior class deserves all the praise that they have received for their wonderful success. Athletics take up their share of attention in the amusement of any college man, and all other forms of entertainment meet with enthusiasm, but there is nothing in the line of social entertainment that will linger in the minds of Regis men longer than the memory of the Junior dance of 1928.

Jr - Treasurer IN October, 1924, a small group of Denver business and professional men gathered together for the purpose of assisting Regis College. Surveying the situation and realizing the importance of athletics in college life, it was decided to concentrate their efforts upon athletics, and, as a result the Regis Athletic Association was formed. The organization came at an opportune time. Enrollment at the College was still suffering from the aftermaths of the war and the athletic situation was very unstable. Progress had been made, it is true, but Regis was still classed as an uncertain quantity, and its schedule in sports was indefinite. In football, for instance, a mixed program of games, some with College teams and some with F reshmen squads, had been played. No victor} ' had ever been scored over a Rocky Mountain Conference team. With whole- hearted enthusiasm the Association began its campaign, and the results have been beyond expectations. In three seasons the membership has grown to over 800, and undoubtedly will go over the 1,000 mark this year. From an obscure place, Regis has advanced athletically to the foremost position in the Rocky Mountain district, and its 1926 football team was picked by newspaper experts as the outstanding team of the region. Rocky Mountain Conference teams were played and defeated, the best of middle Western teams brought to Denver, and in 1927 the most pretentious schedule ever attempted by a Western institution was successfully carried out. Nationally known teams such as the Haskell Indians and South Dakota State College played the Rangers in Denver, and for the first time in Regis ' history, the 1927 eleven journeyed to Los Angeles, California, to defeat the Loyola University team, 20-18, in a thrilling contest. A convincing proof of the progress made and the advanced standing secured was the action of the Rocky Mountain Conference in admitting Regis College as an associate member to the Conference in December, 1927, and the rating of Regis as a Senior College in the March meeting of this year. JJIIL RS The slogan— REGIS, THE NOTRE DAME OF THE WEST — that seemed mere words in 1924, is now in truth a strong reality, and the Regis Athletic Association may well be congratulated that Regis has secured its place in the sun.

Murphy Tackle Football DURING the last two seasons Regis has won ten out of fourteen inter-sectional contests. The national fame which Regis has acquired through her football teams reflects honor and renown on Tom McNamara, Supervisor of Athletics and Mentor of Regis Football teams during the past three seasons. Tom McNamara came to Regis in 1924 and was well qualified to take over the coaching position. He was a member of the University of Pennsylvania coaching and scouting staff for four years. He was also advisory coach of the Frankfort Yellow Jackets and the Philadelphia Quakers, two of the leading professional football teams in the United States. He is well known in Eastern sport circles, and his lectures and syndicate articles have received national publicity. His lectures, broadcast over Station K O A, brought favorable comment from thirty-one states and two hundred and sixteen newspapers. The outstanding feature of the Regis teams during the past three seasons was their splendid hght in the second half; quoting one writer, Regis looks well even in defeat. One significant fact is that Regis has lost but five games in the past two years. The total points scored by the opponents in four of these five contests numbered but sixteen. The motto of the Rangers, Keep Punching, has marked the undaunted courage and fight which is outstanding in all the Brown and Gold contests. When harder schedules are played in the Rocky Mountain Region, Regis will play them. Pagi One Hundred Eighteen RI REGIS 20, NEBRASKA WESLEYAN THE Rangers started their successful season of 1927 by romping over the Wesleyan eleven, champions of their Nebraska division for the last two years. Though fighting doggedly, the Nebraskans were unable to withstand the smashing offensive of the Regis backs, and the Brown and Gold gridders rolled over three touchdowns. Deckreon scored the first touchdown of the season in the second quarter when he plunged off-tackle on a delayed cross-buck. The other scores came in the fourth quarter. A beautiful pass, Deckreon to Elarrigan, placed the ball over the goal line. Blackburn and LaGuardia alternated in a series of off-tackle plays and line bucks that placed the ball on the three yard line. Doherty then smashed through center for a touchdown. The entire Regis squad showed to advantage in their initial game. Rabtoay, pilot of the Rangers, set the pace for his eleven, while Manchester, left end for Nebraska, was a bulwark of strength for his team. Coach McNamara played thirty-one men in this contest which indicates the poten- tial strength and reserve he had available throughout the season ' s schedule. 1927 Squad 3 f -3 C — 3 C or — = 30 3 1 3 g= J fc- Pi-ige One Hundred Nineteen REGIS 19, WASHBURN AND again, on the following Saturday, the Rangers repeated. The smooth function- ing Regis eleven performed plays which the visitors were unable to solve. Calling deceptive formations, the Rangers under the generalship of John Miller, ran up a total of 260 yards from scrimmage while the Washburn team gained only 3 8 yards. Archie Douglas, fleet halfback of the Ranger eleven, got away on two of his famous 60-yard jaunts which made him a constant threat throughout the season. In the second quarter, Douglas started the scoring by galloping 5 5 yards through the Washburn defense. In the second half the Rangers got under way again. Douglas, catching a punt, raced 5 4 yards to the Washburn ' s 10-yard line. Ole Reardon bucked the line for 8 yards. Washburn recovered a fumble on their 2 -yard line, but Hanley, Regis guard, blocked an attempted punt. A pass Dekreon to Douglas, resulted in a touchdown. During the final period, the Regis backs pounded the Washburn line for repeated gains. Vegher made 20 yards on an off-tackle play and Dekreon crossed the goal on a cut-back. Hanley, Stubbs, and Austin were the outstanding linemen, while their team- mates gave them plenty of support. Pjge One Hundred Twenty i ■]) L REGIS 6, BETHANY 13 THEN came our new rivals, the Bethany Gridders, from Kansas, and with them came our first defeat. The Swedes, getting and taking advantage of the breaks at psychological moments, heaved two long passes from place-kick formation and each of these passes resulted in a touchdown. Although the Bethany eleven had a powerful offensive they were forced to rely on their forward passes, and had they failed at the aerial game, Regis, most likely would have registered another victory. Two long passes, Terrant to Charmichael, placed the ball on the Regis S -yard line. After two attempts at the line failed, Barclay crossed the Ranger line. Douglas, in the second period, decided to do some ball toting. Catching a punt on his 22-yard line, he dodged and weaved his way through the entire Bethany eleven for a touchdown. This dash was spectacular and it made things look gloomy for the Norsemen. The second half opened with the Rangers starting a determined offensive which culminated with Dekreon placing the ball on Bethany ' s 8 -yard line on an off-tackle smash, but again Bethany got the breaks and the ball was called back on an off-side ruling. The Swedes then held and Regis was forced to punt. With the ball in her possession, Bethany again started on one of her drives that resulted in victory. Terrant ran around the end for 40 yards and again on an off-tackle smash he gained 20 more yards. After the Bethany backfield was thwarted in further attempts to gain from line smashes, this same Terrant took the ball, ran back and hurled a beautiful pass over the goal to Charmichael for their second and winning score. Jack Harrigan, left-end for Regis, played the best football game of his career in this contest. His powerful defense made it impossible for the Swedes to make any gains around his end. 0L s !:; W iL A bit of action atjainst Beth ?age One Hundred Tin J. KlRLEY Guard J. Miller Quarterback J. Dekreon End REGIS 6, HASKELL INDIANS 7 PLAYING the most important game in the Rocky Mountain Region, the Rangers, on October 29, out-played, out-guessed and out-smashed the nationally famed Haskell Gridders. For sixty minutes, six thousand excited spectators watched the Brown and Gold team bewilder the highly touted Braves from Kansas. Sweeping down the grid- iron with powerful line drives and playing the Indians off their feet, the Ranger eleven completely out-played the Indians in every department of the game. After the din of the battle, the score was Regis 6, Haskell Indians 7. Although the Rangers lost the game, they gained a virtual victory along with the admiration of the fans who were present. Regis was the aggressor from the start. A 72 -yard run for a touchdown was registered for Regis when Douglas evaded the Warriors and dashed down the field and across their goal line. If the Rangers had made good their try for extra point, they would have held off defeat, but the kick was low. The Haskell score came pass, ran down the field 3 7 ; n the second period, when Brightman, after catching a irds for a touchdown. Satby added the winning point with a placement kick. During the remainder of the game, Regis was within scoring distance on several different occasions, but each time the powerful Indian line held the drives of the Rangers.

The game was ragged, but closely fought. The Rangers still tired from the pre- ceding Saturday, rather expected to have things their own way, but they found out much to their own regret that it was a team made up of old-fashioned boys who played old-fashioned football, and in doing so, gave the Rangers one of their toughest games of the year. Individual performances did not show much in this game. The whole team played good football. Douglas made the only touchdown registered by the Rangers. The score came early in the game when Charlie Stubbs fell on a Columbia fumble on their 1-yard line. On the first attempt, Douglas carried the ball over the line. Carey con- verted the goal. Columbia ' s score came about by the heady passing game of the Iowans. It was the second quarter. Three consecutive passes, Russell to Noanan and Russell to K. resulted in their only score. offense for the Columbians. It was these three men who starred both on defens ind The first downs for both teams were even, but Regis made seven of the eight from scrimmage, while Columbia made seven of their eight first downs from passes.

Every member of the squad is entitled to a great amount of praise for the deter- mined fight which they made, and no little credit belongs to Coach Tom McNamara, through whose efforts the Rangers were taught to play the hardest and smartest football of any team that ever represented our College. And what a game it was to watch! The score stood 1 8 to 6 in favor of Loyola with but six minutes to the final whistle, when Regis uncorked its running attack. In the space of five minutes two touchdowns were made bv the man mountain , as the Los Angeles papers called Douglas. He traveled the distances of 50 and 60 yards respectively with the aid of perfect interference from every member of the team. Ole Reardon converted both goals. Tunney and Hoebber were the Loyola stars and around them was built the passing attack that almost spelled defeat for the Rangers. The victory was not undeserved because the Rangers outclassed the Loyola team in every department of the game except in the crafty passing attack of the Los Angeles school.

The Dakotans wen given the surprise of their lives. They found their mighty offensive stopped ir its tracks and soon found that their defense was unable to cope with the smashing attack of the Rangers. But again our nemesis came in the form of two short passes, Schaete to Frandsen, which resulted in the State ' s only touchdown. The visitors drew first blood when they booted a field-goal, but their lead was soon overcome when Douglas broke loose and raced 60 yards for a touchdown. Against the Regis second string, at the start of the second half, the Staters found themselves unable to score, and the Dakota backs were held from making any noticeable gains, but Schaefer reached down into the bag of football tricks and brought forth two heaves to Frandsen which proved fatal to Regis. Coach McNamara rushed his regulars into the fracas, but the Dakotans were not to be denied their lead. The final gun found the Rangers fighting valiantly but unable to turn the tide of victory. r % • • if if Page One Hundred Twenty-fi; IR REGIS 14, DES MOINES U. DISPLAYING a versatile attack and out-playing their heavier opponents, the Regis Rangers rode rough-shod over Des Moines University in the Turkey-Day Classic at Regis Stadium. Captain Rabtoay, Murphy and Miller, playing their last game under the Brown and Gold Banner will always be remembered for their stellar perform- ances. They played as only veterans can, and their departure will be missed by the Rangers when they mobilize for next season ' s schedule. Working up a turkey-dinner appetite, the Ranger eleven swept through the Iowans for two touchdowns. Ole Reardon converted both attempts by place-kicks. Vegher was the star of the day. His onslaught with telling yardage, ripped the Des Moines team to ribbons. Starting the Regis offensive, Douglas, in a series of runs and line smashes, toted the ball from the 48-yard line for a touchdown. The second score resulted, when Vegher, taking the ball from midfield, slashed and ripped his way through Des Moines for runs of 10, 12 and 14 yards and ended his performance by crashing through tackle for a touchdown. Hanley, left guard for Regis, smothered the Iowa interference and threw the Des Moines backs for losses on their attempts to run his side of the line. The Rangers, without exception, finished the season with that dash of determination and glory that has brought Regis to the fore in footballdom. 1928 = = Puge One Hundred Twenty- RS Jill T g STHE REGIS RESERVES 13, MINES FROSH 7 HE Reserves as well as the Varsity showed up splendidly during the past season and proved to be a powerful aggregation, although they were seen in action on but two occasions, owing to the tact that no other games could be scheduled. On November 3rd, the Reserves journeyed to Golden where they met the School of Mines Frosh in an exciting contest. During the first quarter the Orediggers took advantage of the breaks, pushed over a touchdown, and were successful in their try for the extra point. In the second quarter the Reserves played alert football. After working the ball into the Frosh territory, quarterback Gene Reardon threw a pass across the goal line to Dooley for a touchdown. The attempt for the extra point failed. During the second half, the Miners were hopelessly outclassed. Jovick played the hidden ball trick and ran fifty yards to the Miners ten yard line, before being downed. Reardon scored the second touchdown for the Brown and Gold on the next play, when he smashed through center and crossed the goal line. The remainder of the game was played in the Frosh territory, but the Reserves were unable to score, owing to the dogged fight put up by the Frosh team. the Des Moines line 3 r =) c i g- 3 1 =3 i — 3g= 1)1 Page One Hundred ' 1 ' wenty-teren GER J.

Mellingeh Halfback REGIS RESERVES 7, COLORADO COLLEGE FROSH ON Armistice day while the Rangers were defeating Loyola College at Los Angeles, the Reserves were bombarding the Colorado College yearlings with everything that is contained in the football book. The offense of the Reserves smashed through the Frosh line at will. Several times the second string Rangers were within striking distance of the Frosh goal, but on each occasion a fumble proved costly- Jones, Phillips, and Curtin were the consistent ground gainers for the Brown and Gold while Dooley, McDevitt, and Schmidt performed well on the line. The only touchdown of the game came in the third quarter when Jones crossed the Frosh goal line after a series of line smashes. Phillips converted the extra point. Although the score does not indicate the powerful offense of the Reserves, they ran up large yardage throughout the contest. The yearlings were outclassed in every department of the game. The performance of the Reserves against the Mines and Colorado Freshman teams revealed some very promising players, and several of these men are banked on to fill the positions left vacant through graduation on next year ' s Varsity eleven. 1928 Page One Hundred Twenty-eight WHAT THE RANGERS WILL DO IN 1928 PROSPECTS are bright for the coming next year ' s team and we are looking forward to greater things in 1928. A new Coach had to be secured to replace Coach Tom McNamara, who so capably guided the destinies of the Rangers through the forma- tive years of 1924-1927, and whose success at Regis induced him to seek larger fields of endeavor. Norman Red Strader, St. Mary ' s College, California, graduate, all-Pacific Coast Fullback, in 1924-2 5, and rated all-American by Walter Camp in 1925, will replace him. Four years of playing under the renowned Slip Madigan, and two years as Madigan ' s assistant, has given Strader the needed experience and ability to instruct. The Regis Rangers of 1928 will undoubtedly flash that spectacular and effective type of Notre Dame football as developed by Madigan, which has made the Pacific Coast institution famous. The schedule maintains the high standard of previous years. Five home games with two trips away, are certain, and two other games with outstanding teams are pending. The Rangers open with McCook College at Regis Stadium September 22nd, after which on September 29th they travel to Stillwater, Oklahoma, to engage the Oklahoma Aggies, Missouri Valley Conference champions in 1926. The yearly rivals, Bethany College, then show their crashing eleven in Denver on October 12th, followed by the widely known Haskell Indians on October 27th. The 7-6 contest of last year will not readily be forgotten. Loyola of Los Angeles is the next visitor at the Stadium on November 10th, succeeded by Western State of the Rocky Mountain Conference on November 24th. Thanksgiving Day sees the Rangers closing the season with Chadron Normal at Alliance, Nebraska.

J) 11 w Basketball Review for 1928 COACH BUNTE, our new basketball mentor, was handicapped by the fact that he had only a few veterans from last year ' s team with which to form the nucleus for the 1928 basketball team. But ability and cooperation more than offset the disadvantage, and before the season had proceeded far, the Brown and Gold was repre- sented by a smooth functioning quintet that ranked high among the leading teams of this section. Regis, for unknown reasons, was able to negotiate games with but a few of the college teams in this region. Forced to schedule games with the leading independent quintets and occasionally meeting a college five, the Brown and Gold hoopsters won a large percentage of their contests. Practice followed the Christmas vacation and shortly after, Regis opened up her schedule with the Pratt Book Store five. The game was closely contested, but Pratts staged a rally in the last period to give them a win over the Ranger quintet. This game enabled Regis to strengthen her weak points in preparation for following contests. ■== K — J l i l - Page One Hundred Thirty-three ER = F. Mrak Forward McCabe Guard REGIS split a double-header with the School of Mines. Each team won the game played on its own floor. The first game, staged at Regis, ended with Regis on the long end of a 24-2 score. The contest was exciting from start to finish. Long shots featuring Phillips and Cella accounted for many of the Ranger scores, while the Regis guards, McGregor and Carey, broke up the Mines ' scoring machine at critical moments. Dickey was the stellar performer for the Orediggers. At Golden, the Miners and Rangers battled in a see-saw contest. The game ended with both teams striving to break a 3 2 to 5 2 tie. The Miners came back strong in the extra period, and Carr sank two baskets from mid-floor. Regis was unable to register any scores ' and the game ended with a 3 6 to 3 2 victory for Mines. Berger, Mrak and Phillips starred for the Ranger quintet. Danford and Carr were the heavy scorers for Mines. The basket tossers from the New Mexico Normal were unable to guard against the fast breaking attack of the Rangers. Both teams had a strong offensive and the score was close throughout the game, but the Brown and Gold quintet was determined to avenge last year ' s defeat. The lead was regained several times by each team, but during the last quarter the Regis defense tightened and Cella and Mrak flipped the ball through the hoop for the greater number of tallies. The gun found New Mexico fight- ing to overcome the 2-point lead of a 3 9-3 7 score. Regis next journeyed to Wyoming where they met the Fort Russell and the Univer- sity of Wyoming teams on successive nights. The game with Fort Russell proved to be a scoring bee for the Rangers. Cella, Berger, Magicrski, Phillips and Carey were on a scoring rampage and found the basket for S6 points. The soldiers were helpless against the Regis offense. Bailey and Nichols showed flashes of real basketball for the soldiers and accounted for most of the Fort ' s 3 3 markers. ==S= 1928 = Page Om Hundred Thirty-jour SR J. Berger (Cap.) Center R. McGregor Guard AND again on the next night after a tiresome journey, the Regis team met the Uni- versity of Wyoming cagers, Champions of the Rocky Mountain Conference. Little rest combined with Wyoming ' s trick floor were two disadvantages that the Rangers could not overcome. However, the Cowboys were forced during the entire contest. The game ended with Wyoming leading 41 to 3 2. Regis missed many close-in shots. McGregor and Magierski performed nicely in the guard positions while Phillips and Berger showed up well on the offense. Engstrom and Fadrizzi were the main cogs in Wyoming ' s smooth performing machine. The Rangers annexed another victory when they defeated the Teacher Cubs. The Carey-Berger combination was too deceptive for the Cub defense and each connected for several baskets. McCabe and Magierski played a tight guarding game. Solberg and Palmer were the big threats for the Yearlings. The Brown and Gold quintet showed better precision in handling and passing the ball than in former contests and enabled Regis to win 40 to 34. Playing the Colorado Teachers at Greeley, the Regis basket tossers met defeat through their inability to score baskets from close-up shots. During the first half the Rangers were held to four field goals. The second half found the Regis five hitting their stride. Phillips went on a scoring rampage and flipped in five baskets from all angles of the floor. The Teacher offense was smothered by Berger and Carey, but Reeis found herself too late and the Teachers won 29 to 23. R: Page One Hundred Thirty-five SSR IN a two-game series, the Rangers defeated the Cottrell Clothing five in both contests, 66 to 34 and 5 6 to 5 1. The first game was marked by the wonderful offense displayed by the Rangers. The Berger-Phillips combination bewildered the Cottrell guards with their accurate shooting and flashy floor work. Close dropped in several field goals for the Rangers. Dekreon and Kitto carried the brunt of the game for the clothiers. The Cottrell team appeared much improved in this second contest, but victory could not be denied the Rangers. Berger, Regis center, gave the spectators a real treat in accuracy by dropping in twelve field goals. His opponent, Barth, pushed him for scoring honors finding the cage on ten different occasions. The Ranger schedule of 1927-192 8 terminated when the Regis quintet met the (U) of Wyoming on the local floor. The Gymnasium was filled to capacity and the crowd witnessed one of the most sensational games played here this season. The passing. dribbling, and team-work of both fives featured the entire contest. Berger, playing his last collegiate game for the Brown and Gold, turned in a performance that will long be remembered by those who viewed the game. Cella and Phillips were in rare form and showed to advantage by sinking field goals with unerring accuracy. But the cowboys were not to be outshone. Led by Jacolletti and Thomas the entire Wyoming team broke into the scoring column. Their offensive and defensive work was of the highest caliber and their 54-45 victory was a well earned one.

Douglas Stevens was the big gun of the day, connecting with three hits out of four trips to the plate, while Torres continued his hitting streak by a long circuit clout. Several games have been scheduled with some of the city teams for the remainder of the season and, judging from the various appearances of the Rangers, this should be a successful year for the Brown and Gold. ISR Page One Hundred Forty-two MINOR SPORTS EDDIE MACK, one of the foremost contenders for the world ' s lightweight boxing title, has, for the past three years been a student at Regis. He has always taken a prominent part in school activities, and is one of the most popular students on the campus. Aside from representing Regis in the ring, Eddie acted as trainer for the Ranger football squad. His knowledge of calisthenics enabled the Regis eleven to com- plete a gruelling schedule without serious handicaps due to injuries. He was selected to edit the sports section of the Brown and Gold, and in the Regis Annual, the Ranger of 1928, he occupied the position of business manager. During his very successful boxing career, Eddie fought every lightweight contender the matchmakers could obtain, losing but one fight, that to Caponi, on an accidental foul. The climax of his boxing career was reached when he held Red Chapman, claimant of the world ' s lightweight title, to a draw. Eddie was the aggressor throughout this bout. An encounter with Sammy Mandell, present holder of the lightweight crown, was denied Eddie when the title holder, through illness, was unable to appear and defend his title. After a recent illness, Eddie staged a great come-back by winning decisively over Joe Coffee in a ten-round bout. On May 15th he lost a decision to Sid Terris of New York, who is considered one of the three best lightweights in the world. Eddie has a great future in the fistic realm, and Regis can look forward to the day when one of her loyal sons will be heralded as the world ' s champion of lightweights.

HE Regis Boxing Club was organized by Eddie Mack out of the thirty-five boxing enthusiasts who answered his call in January. Their pep was increased by the spirited talk which Eddie Mack gave concerning the importance of hard, steady No better instructor could be desired than our own Eddie Mack. Besides being a master at instructing the boxers in the fundamentals of the game, Mack took a personal interest in each and their progress proves his efficiency in handling them. Each member took to training seriously and in a short time all were in fine condi- tion. At the meetings Eddie gave instructions to each. After the first month ' s training, the boxers showed fine style and ability. The club meetings were made interesting by talks and bouts, in which each member took part. Not only was good boxing taught, but also the theory which effects good sportsmanship. RS Page One Hundred Forty-fivi Wrestling ■K R = ,,-. ,?L Being a wrestler of wide experience in the amateur field, and possessed of an exten- sive knowledge of physical training, Farrell had the necessary qualifications to stir up interest and develop a team that could represent Regis in intercollegiate contests. His ideas on wrestling were much akin to those of Eddie Mack on boxing, namely, that it is not the sport of low-brows and ignoramuses, but a fitting college activity, with the better class of our modern youth as the participants. The work that Farrell started so well has not been in vain. It has been delayed, but will be taken up again in the near future, and will move forward to the goal aimed at by the young coach. 1 |[ T NDER the directing influence of Coach Farrell, wrestling at Regis had become a y) very popular part of the athletic schedule during the 1926 and 1927 seasons. Prospects for a champion mat squad for this year were extra bright, until the serious injury received by Farrell in an exhibition wrestling match at a Lambda Tau smoker early in the season put a damper on the enthusiasm for the sport, and deprived the candidates of a coach who had set his heart on making wrestling an important part of Regis athletics. 5R Out Hundred Forty-sh RS Intramural Basketball Champions FRESHMEN McSwigan ( Capt. ) Forward Dekreon Forward Landauer Center Dillon Guard Jones , Guard Doyle Guard Phillips !

Our work is completed. We have attempted to make the Ranger an accurate retro- spect of the happenings of the College during the past year, so that it may aid you in the recollection of these events. To record all these activities, we have chosen what we thought would be the most attractive arrangement, and have spared no efforts to present them in the best manner possible. The undertaking was large, the time short, and prospects dark, but splendid cooperation on all sides has aided us to overcome all obstacles. We have performed the task to the best of our ability and believe we have been true to the trust placed in us. And now we wish to thank all those who in any way aided in the publication of this book. To the faculty adviser we are greatly indebted for his sympathetic con- sideration of the problems which have confronted the staff, and are truly grateful to Rev. J. M. Floyd, S.J. and Miss Mary R. Ryan for their kind assistance. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to the contracting firms for their excellent cooperation and unqualified attention. For the generous support given by r the advertisers and friends of Regis, the Business Manager also thanks them. The Editor. Va 3¥ Cf
