MAYER From deep in the heart of the College of Nobles, in Naples, Italy, through the old Colo- rado-New Mexico Mission, by the stages of Holy Family school, Las Vegas College, Morrison Col- lege, and from the old College of the Sacred Heart has emerged the greater Regis College of today. Regis College is proud of its glorious past and is looking forward to an even more glorious future. The story of Regis is one of tribute to the per- severance of the Jesuits in their desire for a truly outstanding college. The urgent need for priests prompted Bishop Lamy ' s request for aid from the Jesuits in the year 1866. They accepted the invitation and the first Jesuits arrived at Santa Fe in 1867. Immediately their desires for a school of higher learning were manifested. The result was the first school to come out of the Colorado-New Mexico Mission, Holy Family School founded by Fr. Gasparri in 1873 at Albuquerque, New Mexico. The school was not successful, being abandoned before 1877 to the Sisters of Charity. It was evident from the be- Page 6 The Story oi Fifty Years ginning that a successful Catholic college could not be founded in Albuquerque. Its foundation is now, however, mute testimony to the over ' whelming desire of the people and the Jesuits for the establishment of a Catholic college. In the year 1874, the townspeople themselves of Las Vegas, New Mexico, requested that the proposed college be erected there. Their plans materialized, with the educators 1 consent, and in 1877 Las Vegas College was founded with Fr. Salvador Persone as first president. Before a new school building could be completed, classes were held in a private home donated by a devoted Span- iard. The short history of Las Vegas College can be well summed-up as — hardships patiently borne, Page 7 but not in vain. Fr. Pantanella, upon his acces- sion to the presidency of the institution, was con- vinced that Las Vegas held little future for the project. He then began searching for a more suit- able site for the proposed University of the West. At first, Rome would not grant the per- mission, but a conference with Bishop Machebeuf and a trip to Europe produced the desired results. Fr. Pantanella arrived from Europe, August 4 1884, and two weeks later set out for Morrison, Colorado, to prepare for the formal opening of the College of the Sacred Heart. Most instrumental in the Catholic college be- ginnings in Colorado was the Most Rev. Bishop Machebeuf, Bishop of Colorado. And it was in Late afternoon shadows cross the approach to the Administration Building. W--4 W , ' . , ' IW ' - m - ■£ . • ■■£ hi k ; ■ '  , ,i « m m ' Carroll Hall at high noon. This west side faces the mountains. the foundation of S. H. C. at Morrison and later at Denver that the good Bishop was to see the real ' iz,ation of his dream college. It was through his work and that of Fr. Marra, then head of the en- tire mission, that Sacred Heart College was suc- cessfully founded in 1888 upon the firm basis of thoroughly Catholic principles of education. In 1883 Bishop Machebeuf bought the Swiss Cot- tage, or the Evergreen Hotel , at Morrison, Colo- rado, as it is sometimes referred to, and turned the entire property over to the Jesuits for the contem- plated college. Fr. Pantanella was named the first and, and as time proved, the only rector of S.H.C. at Morrison, Colorado. The enrollment of the College increased from thirty-one the second year of its existence to fifty-four the last year. In con- trast to the Spanish enrollment of Las Vegas, Mor- rison proved to be overwhelmingly Irish. The short history of the College is not with- out details of human interest. Noteworthy among these is the incident relating that in order to se- cure a few unearned holidays, one of the boys was almost successful in his attempt to burn down the school. Whether Morrison was haunted or not is a matter for conflicting opinions. In the spring of the year 1888, it became ap- parent that Morrison was not the site for the pros- pective college. Not only its distance from the city but also the lack of facilities brought about the end of its existence at Morrison. Morrison was formally closed on June 27, 1888. In 1886 it was decided to close Las Vegas College; it was necessary, therefore, to find a lo ' cation for a combination of the two schools. Fr. Page 8 The Story of Fifty Years Page 9 Pantanella was greatly impressed with the possi- bilities of Colorado Springs harboring a large col- lege, and some even say that the property was already purchased, though the records give no such indication. Finally upon the insistence of Bishop Machebeuf, Regis was destined to adorn North Denver. Mr. J. Bnsben Walker generously offered forty acres of land northwest of the city. After some discussion the land upon which the College now stands was selected. Rocky Moun- tain Lake was permitted the students for their private use; and in addition to the foregoing dona- tion Mr. L. K. Perrin generously offered the Col- lege ten more acres. On September 13, 1887, ground was broken and the cornerstone of the new College of the Sacred Heart was laid by Fr. Marra, then superior of the New Mexico-Colorado Mission. Work progressed on the building very rapidly and the building was completed in one hundred days. The College of the Sacred Heart was not con- sidered a new institution but merely a continua- tion of the Morrison and Las Vegas Colleges. Fr. Persone was appointed to act as the first president of the College upon its opening on September 5, 1888. The curriculum was made up of a classical and a commercial course. By an act of the Colo- rado State Legislature, the College was empow- ered to confer degrees. It is in the first year of its existence that the College saw its first publica- tion appear — The Highlander. The paper was discontinued in 1893 and the school was wi thout a publication until 1918 when the first issue of the Brown and Gold attracted the attention of the Carroll Hall is the Regis collegians ' residence. s 7 Fj£ kft; ' : -- ' ---s:i:. ■-.;,.; ■ : '   w . ?

The result of the first year assured the Jesuits that their efforts had not been wasted; the College was firmly established. Just two years later, the first graduates of the College gained their well-earned diplomas. In that first year graduating class were exactly ten men, sturdy and true, who had survived t he hard- ships of preparation and now were prepared to steer their ships of state. That year saw, too, the first dramatic venture of the College prove highly successful when it was presented in the old Tabor Theater before a capacity crowd. The statue, which today decorates our beautiful campus, was erected through the donations of Mr. and Mrs. Walker (parents of the College ' s first benefactor) and Mr. Robert Johnson of Milwaukee, Wiscon- sin, at a total cost of over $1,500.00. The statue was blessed and the school consecrated to the Sacred Heart on the feast of St. Peter Claver. Later in the year the first priest was ordained in the College chapel, and the first free scholarship was offered in this year as well. The year 1891 was a most interesting one for it was in this year that Brother Ben, 11 as he is known to all Regis men, took possession of the Grotto. 11 The grotto had been previously built at a cost of $300.00 and was in serious danger of being torn down until the good brother came to its rescue. That grotto is today indeed an inspir- ation to all that are drawn to its beauty. In ad- dition to the one little shrine which decorated the hollow then, there are now seven beautiful objects of worship. Not only Brother Ben, but every Page 10 The Story oi Fifty Years Page 1 1 Regis man has taken a keen interest in the growth of the grotto and the inspiration that it affords. It now stands as one of the greatest attractions of the enire campus with its beautiful tribute in stat- ues and shrines to Sts. Aloysius, Joseph, Xavier, Isaac Jogues, and Patrick, as well as to the Little Flower. This same year the Holy Family Parish was founded at the College and was moved to its present location only in 1904. Tragedy stalked the campus in the following year, 1892. Two boys were trapped in a fallen cave which today would be located just south of Carroll Hall. The first boy brought out was al- ready dead and the hopes for the second were greatly diminished, but happily upon the second boy ' s revival the fear of a greater tragedy was erased from the minds of the anxious onlookers. The financial panic which followed in the next year almost succeeded in closing the school, but the Jesuits had founded the school amid hardships and were not to be deterred from their ideals by a few inconveniences. The College weathered the troubled times safely. From 189 ' ) to 1919 the story of Sacred Heart College is one of beginnings; for it was during these years that most of the present campus activi- ties were developed. In 189?, athletics first ap- peared on the campus as an organized form of ac- tivity. A philosophate for the Jesuits of the Colo- rado-New Mexico Mission was formed in 1896, The Grotto and garden of our Lady of Lourdes. . • ' .:-.- ' ' ' % ? mm t r ! fm W tS mrvx ' ' wife K?

Looking Westward. Mount Evans, snow-clad, is in the distance. hut was abandoned within the next two years. 1897 saw the first plays produced written by the students, and in the following year came the first of the typhoid epidemics, which we might say in passing was not nearly as serious as the epidemic of 1908. The Alumni Association was formed and held its first meeting in the College refectory in 1900 with twenty graduates present. Our famous seismograph, one of the twelve or thirteen then in the United States, brought over from Eu- rope, was put into operation in the year 1909. That this machine has never stopped operating since is a great testimony to the patience of our own Fr. Forstall. The present gymnasium was built in 1912, and in that year the first laymen ' s re- treat was held, a practice that has been continued for twenty-five years and has served two thousand six hundred Catholic men. A bold breach of discipline and the resultant expulsion of the Famous Forty 11 makes the year 1919 memorable. Every man who participated in the strike for a free day by going to town and to a theater without permission was dismissed the fol- lowing morning. At first it was looked upon as disastrous to the best interests of the College, but the next year the attendance reached a new peak. It was in this year, too, that the College was in- corporated into the Missouri province in the break- ing-up of the Colorado-New Mexico Mission. The early Nineteen-twenties saw the Jesuits attaining some of their original aims. The name of the College was changed from Sacred Heart to Regis in 1920 and a building campaign was launched with the result that in the next year a new wing was added to the Administration Build- ing. In 1922 beautiful Carroll Hall was erected to house resident students and to act as a class room building. After a two-year interim the Regis stadium was constructed to accommodate the foot- ball teams that earned renown for the Regis Rangers. In the half decade (1925-30) Regis blossomed into the institution it was hoped it would be. Dramatics came to the fore during this period and it was not uncommon to have 4,000 at a perform- ance. One play, presented in 1926, 11,000 at- tended in four performances at the City Audito- rium and were greatly impressed with the talents manifested on the stage. It was in these years that Regis football scaled the heights of the Rocky Mountain Conference, only suffering one major defeat and that to an unscheduled opponent — the Depression. The Regis library was established by Page 12 The Story of Fifty Years Page 13 Fr. Sandoval in 1927 with 27,000 volumes; but in the past few years has progressed to a major place on the campus, now containing approximately 35,- 000 volumes. The library stands today as a tribute to Fr. Sandoval ' s perseverance in his cour- ageous work. Night courses were inaugurated into the Col- lege in 1930 for a short time. The Institute of Catholic Learning was organized in the same year to give or sponsor lectures twice a month on cur- rent Catholic subjects. In this year Regis reigned supreme in the oldest sport of the College when during the entire baseball season she was defeated only once and that time by the professional team of Pueblo of the Western League. The Depression necessitated a financial cam- paign in 1932. A gift of Mr. J. O ' Connell to the College was timely and generous. The Mothers 1 club, the Regis Guild, and the Parents 1 Association must be applauded for their splendid efforts for Regis. The College ' s tradi- tional superiority in dramatics was affirmed in the triumph in the Little Theatre contest (1934) and the permanent possession of the Donovan trophy. In 1937 a fine religious play, entitled Within These Walls 11 , was presented to a capacity crowd. Today Regis faces the future after a most suc- cessful year: a year in which the decision to pre- pare once more for inter-collegiate football on a new scale was made; a year which produced the splendid play Let No Man 11 , and one of the most successful Junior Promenades ever held in the his- tory of the school; and finally a year which was embellished by the appearance of this very book. The story of Regis has indeed been an inter- esting one. The institution that has grown out of the work of sturdy pioneers of education stands today as a fitting accomplishment of their labors. Regis College has successfully weathered many storms and its influence has been strongly felt over the entire Rocky Mountain Area. In every Regis man there exists a strong feeling of pride in his historic school of higher learning; yet at the same time a secure assurance exists in the practical train- ing Regis gives its men. The future of Regis lies perhaps in the ambi- tion to be shaded in the Rocky Mountain Region only by the majestic Rockies themselves. The faculty and men of P egis College can see only fu- ture glory for this western Jesuit College, resulting in the attainment of all the aims of its founders and a pinnacle of achievements for Regis College On the Crest of the West. 11 Looking Northward: an exceptional view of the Regis campus and surrounding terrair . -. , ■ .... ,„ • ' -„ 4 p % t ' •w • T i % Jr 1 .

The Council certainly did its share this year to encourage student interest in Regis aifairs. To be- gin the year they sponsored a Student Body dance in honor of the Freshmen. All Frosh activities were handled by the Council. One of the more difficult tasks of this group was the provision of interesting assembly programs for each week in the year. This year a mixture of comedy, discussion and educational programs filled the year. For the first semester Jack Mays was the acting President of the organisation. Harold Clark then took over the office. On May 4 George J. Reinert was selected to act as President for th e following year. Page 42 Valencich, Reinert, Kimmett, Gray, Marranzino, Carr.

Features John Aasterud, Donald McMahon Sports Robert Carroll, John Connors, Alvin Roberts The aim of the Brown and Gold has been to offer its readers some idea of the daily student life at Regis College. In order to make the picture as comprehensive and balanced as possible, the format was somewhat enlarged this year. News items concerning all departments and all activities were wel- comed. The range of features was widened to include essays, stories, and poems of a more literary quality; historical and alumni notes; pen etchings of campus personalities; editorial comment on events in the world of sport and general life as they interest college men; humor, gossip, and bits of society; and exchange items from other college papers through the country.

Playhouse Club Thet Playhouse Cluh of Regis College realizing what a powerful factor the legitimate stage is in shaping the ideals and morals of our people and ever mindful of the purpose of the Catholic Dramatic Movement to make the Catholic Stage a vital force in the field of Catholic Action , fittingly chose for its final production Dorothy Kneeland ' s Catholic Action Play, Let No Man. With the generous cooperation of the selective tal- ent from Loretto Heights College, the Playhouse Cluh of Regis College gave the performance of this modern three-act drama at the Denver West High School Audi- torium on April the 29th before an appreciative and well- satisfied audience. John Marshall Society The John Marshal Pre-Legal Society was organized at Regis in 1937. The purposes of this organization are threefold: to prepare the members for more successful study in the profession of law: to develop the powers of the mind and heart to accept Catholic ideas and ideals; and to cooperate in creating and maintaining a sound public opinion and high idealism.

Each year they put special effort into one large function for the benefit of Regis, and in January of 1938 they again gave us a wonderfully successful party; financially, so- cially profitable to all. It was a gathering of leading Catholic workers of Denver, the loyal supporters of Catholic Education. Regis High Dances During this year the Gymnasium was the setting for three splendid social functions that were most enjoyable. Probably the largest and most successful was the opening party of last Fall, the Sodality Dance given in October. About a month later the Home Com- ing party brought many of the Alumni back to the old haunts. Op April 29 a third func- tion brought the season to a high climax.

FOOTBALL THE SEASON By JOHN CONNORS While students and alumni hoped for a 1937 edition of Regis football, comparable to the days when Columbia and Loyola fell before the Rangers, the result was disap- pointing. The proteges of Coaches Mai Fiese and Dave Kelley won none, lost five, and tied two games m the past season. The year opened with the Doane Teachers beating the Rangers, 52-0. Then, the Denverites journeyed into foreign fields, as they played the Kearney Teachers in Nebraska. The result was a 66-0 shellacking for the Regis team. Adams State eked out a close 14-8 win over the Brown and Gold. Then followed the Fort Lewis game, which ended in a scoreless tie. A passing attack, centered on two tall ends, caused the downfall of the Rangers m the Spear- fish Normal contest, the Dakotans winning 12-0. Armistice Day found the Regis footballers at Las Vegas. New Mexico, where they held a favored Las Vegas Normal School to a scoreless game. November 20 was Homecoming, but try as they would, the Rangers could not check the East New Mexico Teachers squad and lost 43-12. Despite their poor showing in the 1937 season, many of the Regis football men gave promise of a better future for the sport at Regis by their work in the past season. The freshmen members of the 1937 squad were unusually auspicious, especially John McGee of Milwaukee, Wiscon- sin. Jim Carroll and Vernon Gau were other standouts of the past year. BASKETBALL Coach Dave Kelley, who wielded champions at Sonora High, California, before coming to Regis, piloted the Regis Rangers to a very successful basketball season in 1938. With Paul Cella and Joe Schmitz as forwards, Gerald Galligan and Joe Sunderland at center, and T. J. MeMahon, Stan Hall, George Remert. and Jack Hyland at the guard posts, Coach Kelley whipped his charges into an aggressive, well-balanced five. The Orediggers of the Colorado School of Mines be- came the first victim of the Rangers on January 30 as they lost 35-31. The Regis quintet then engaged the powerful New Mexico Normal basketeers in two games, both played m New Mexico. The result was two triumphs for the New Mexico boys by scores of 43-3 5 and 46-3 5. On February 11, the Rangers defeated the Pueblo Junior College 30-28 in a game played m Pueblo. The Miners then got their pound of flesh as they beat the Kel- ley-men 31-19 in a return game at the Regis gym. On Feb- ruary 2 5 and 26, the Adams State Teachers College team, later entrants in the National A. A. LI. Basketball Tourna- ment, was in town. Playing the best brand of ball they exhibited during the entire year, the Rangers repelled the Aalomosans successfully by scores of 45-39 and 43-36. A week later the Regis cagesters ended their year with a 46-41 win over the Pueblo Junior College. Paul Cella, whose antics on the basketball floor are rivaled only by his exploits with a tennis racket, led the Regis basketeers in scoring with 87 points. Schmitz had 5 7 tallies and Galligan, 50.
