In these pages you will find the many and well-known clubs and various activities, each representing some phase in the development of a truly cultured Catholic college student. Many and great were the difficulties encountered by the staff, yet each obstacle was overcome by the renewed efforts of a few students fired with a spirit of true loyalty to Seattle College. Still, we feel no personal glory in producing this book but hope that in some manner it may add to the honor and glory of a truly great Seattle College. Ad Multos Amtos DtDICRTIOn To His Excellency, the Most Reverend Walter James Fitzgerald, S.J., D.D., titular Bishop of Timbrias; coadjutor to the Most Reverend Raphael J. Crimont, S.J., D.D.; Vicar Apostolic to Alaska and the Aleutian Islands; former Provincial to the Society of Jesus in the Province of Oregon, and erstwhile President of Seattle College, we respectfully and joyously dedicate this issue of the AEGIS. By this feeble effort we hope to manifest the love and esteem in which we hold our new Bishop. We will pray the Eternal Missioner to bless his every effort as he brings to the cold and dismal wastes of the Northland the burning love of Christ, Our King. D6Dicfmon There is one to whom we owe more than mere words will ever express; to whom Seattle College is and will be ever grateful; from whom the students, past and present, have drawn inspiration and strength; whose every effort has been for us— Reverend Howard F. Peronteau, S.J. To his reverence, as a lasting token of the esteem he has justly merited from all, we dedicate the spirit of love and friendship that colors these pages. Father Peronteau, we arc grateful! 3 FRANCIS E. CORKERY, S.J. President PETER J. HALPIN, S.J. Vice-President FRANCIS J. McGARRIGLE, S.J. Dean of the Graduate School Cs e2 6?, 4 37 JAMES B.

Fully aware of the importance of intellectual training, the members of the Society of Jesus have subordinated it, however, to moral and religious training, making this the whole foundation of their educational system. The soundness of such a foundation is unquestionable; surely any system having for its object the development of the whole man is strong and true. It should be remembered that education is mental and moral development and not mere instruction or assimilation of facts in the various branches of knowledge. In a college the successful scholar develops his mental faculties, hut unless this development is accompanied by moral training, he cannot be called truly educated. A positive result of a thorough mental and moral training is culture and refinement — these characteristics springing from the self-discipline which accompanies a real education. Now the essence of proper moral training is not to be overestimated, for adherence to moral principles is a dominant feature in the life of every strong character. Indeed such an individual’s life is composed of high, moral principles which in turn form superior ideals. This naturally tends to shape the most desirable type of person. The proper inculcation of maxims of conduct is one of the direct aims of the Jesuit system of education. To effect their moral training, the students are given example, supervision, ethical instruction and are aided by the all-important means provided by the Church. Moral education is subordinate to the basis of all education — religious training. To teach morality without religion manifests impossibility, for morality springs from religion. Religion, therefore, is not a mere ornament to education, but is, on the contrary, the most necessary and vital part of the student’s training. If the supernatural element were entirely omitted from the system, a weak, subjective, ineffective method of training would result. Such a condition has never been allowed to come about. Instead, the blending of the supernatural with the natural is the aim of the system, and the success of it is obvious. Religion, therefore, occupies a prominent position and lends, as a result, a cultured tone to the system. In such an environment students find themselves supported by principles that have never fallen, encouraged by the superior tone that only a religious atmosphere can produce. Here the religious, moral and intellectual training of the student is ably fostered. Since the object of the Jesuit educational system is the development of the whole man, what type of individual can be produced by such a system? Certainly the inculcation and acceptance of the principles of the system deign to form the true and perfect Christian, who is not only mindful of the duties of his state in life but possesses the integrity to fulfill them. Besides acquiring knowledge, he would, at the end of his training, lie capable of acting in a more rational manner; the qualities and virtues of charity, and justice towards others, honesty, faith, piety and chastity would manifest themselves in the student who assimilated the training instilled in him. Love of God, combined with a rational fear of God, would, of course, be his motive for ignoring evil and accepting the good. Intellectually, he would sympathize with progress and be alert to the world about him. The desired result of such training, the perfect Christian, could be depended upon to act nobly and truly at all times. Education at Seattle College is carried on in the manner described. The Society of Jesus has taught Catholicism four hundred years, maintaining at all times the highest standards of Catholic education. Seattle College is justly proud that her instructors are members of the Society of Jesus. Operating as a Jesuit institution of higher learning, Seattle College has grown from a college of forty students to a fully accredited school with a total enrollment of over 900 students in six years. Holding its first classes in St. Francis Hall, on Sixth and Spring Streets, Seattle College was founded by the Reverend Victor Garrand, S.J., and the Reverend Adrian Swcere, S.J., in the fall of 1891. Two years later the present building on Broadway and East Marion was started. Under the corporate title of Seattle College it received its charter from the State of Washington in 1898. The charter gave Seattle College the authority to confer academic degrees and honors that similar institutions of learning in the United States conferred. fflCULTV GERALD R. BEEZER, S.J., M.A., M.Sc.

SMITH, Vice-President MARY POWERS, Secretary LOUIS SAUVAIN, Treasurer WILLIAM KELLY. Sergeant-al-A rms OPERA TING as a well-organized and representative group, the Associated Students of Seattle College entered another highly successful year, both scholastically and socially. Governed by a constitution adopted in the spring of 1937, the ASSC has functioned in a democratic and orderly fashion handling all matters concerning the welfare of the students as a group. Under the leadership of James G. Scanlan, president, the past year has shown many improvements in matters concerning student government. Other officers elected to hold positions in the ASSC were: Addison C. Smith, vice-president; Louis Sauvain, treasurer; Mary Powers, secretary; William Kelly, sergeant-at-arms. Taking the lead in all activities during the year, these students were well deserving of the responsibility and the trust placed in their hands. Realizing the need of a weII-organized and well-rounded schedule of social activities, President Scanlan organized a group which was known as the Activities board. This group of students performed a task which had long been neglected. It was the duty of the Activities board to calendar all social events for the entire year and to insure the various organizations cooperation in every function undertaken. Membership is composed of all ASSC officers and the presidents of the various classes and organizations throughout the college. In this manner every group of students had equal representation. ADVISORY BOARD Paul Narigi, Bob Hiltenbrand, Louis Sauvain. Bernard Storey, John Downes. Addison Smith, chairman: Mary Powers, secretary; William Bates, Bob Simmons, William Kelly, Angelo Magnano, William Marx. ''“[I]—'HE ADVISORY BOARD., as provided in the constitution of the ASSC, decides what material is to be III presented to the students at the regular business meetings of the ASSC. It is also a duty of the Advisory 111 board to give final approval to appointments submitted by the president of the student body. This board may either accept or reject any appointment made by the president. The board also designates where an order of business may be discussed if it is not thought to be under the jurisdiction of the ASSC. The members of the Advisory board arc elected by the entire student body at the regular spring election. Each of the Senior, Junior and Sophomore classes are represented by three members and the Associated Students by the vice-president, secretary, treasurer and sergeant-at-arms. The board selects its own chairman. Members of the Advisory board for the year 1938-39 included Addison Smith, chairman; Louis Sauvain, Mary Powers and William Kelly, representing the ASSC; Angelo Magnano, William Marx and Robert Simmons, representing the Senior class; Robert Hiltenbrand, John Downes and Bernard Storey, representing the Junior class; Paul Narigi, William Bates and Donald Boettner representing the Freshman class. Appointments approved by the board for the year were: College Night chairman, Raphael Daigle; Fall Informal, Robert V. Masenga and Ruth Borbeck; Homecoming Dance, Robert Hiltenbrand and Ellen McHugh; Homecoming Banquet, William Bates; Spring Informal, Jeanne Testu and John Kearney; Graduation Committee, Robert Brandmcir and Margaret Lang. Another board which plays a prominent part in the government of the ASSC is the Judicial Board. Composed of three members, one from each of the Senior, Junior and Sophomore classes, this board is empowered to interpret the constitution. Members of this board are chosen by competitive examination based on their knowledge of the ASSC constitution. Members of this year’s Judicial Board were: Frank E. Hayes, Senior; Maurice O'Brien, Junior and chairman; Alfred Plachta, Sophomore. Regular student body meetings are held the first Friday of every month at which time the order of business as previously passed by the Advisory board is discussed and voted upon. These meetings arc interspersed with many entertainments and various speakers. One meeting was devoted to an amateur hour given by members of ACTIVITIES—JUDICIAL BOARDS ACTIVITIES BOARD — Seated: Frank Hayes, I.isle Macdonald, Janet Granger, James Sranlan, Mary Powers. Roseannc Flynn, Bill Bates. Standing: Addison Smith, Bud Bader, Angelo Magnano, Paul Narigi, Bob Hiltenbrand, Pro Magdacl, Louis Sauvain, Robert Simmons. William Marx. JUDICIAL BOARD — Frank Hayes, Maurice O'Brien, chairman: Alfred Plachta. the Glee Clubs. The ASSC was entertained also by members of the Men’s Quartet who rendered several selections which were well received by the student body. Rev. Francis E. Corkery, S.J., spoke on several occasions to the assembled students. Father Corkery stressed the need of cooperation if student government is to succeed. Rev. James B. McGoldrick, S.J., Dean of Studies, also addressed the students. Father McGoldrick pointed out the fact that no education is complete without the student participating in one of the various activities offered. Peter Maurin, co-editor of the Catholic Worker, spoke to the student body on the necessity of the ’'Rehabilitation of the Proletariat.” This was one of the outstanding talks of the year and was the cause of much discussion and debate by the students. 14 sorted j , „r 4 i 30 v -MV' Vl I W4t?% x 777y 27497 scmoRS ANGELO MAGNANO ROSEANNE FLYNN MARY MARTHA OBRIEN ROBERT SIMMONS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer A S SENIORS, the class of 1939 leave a school which has shown remarkable growth since they entered as Freshmen in 1935. For officers in their final year at Seattle College the graduates chose Angelo Magnano, president; Roseanne Flynn, vice-president; Mary Martha O’Brien, secretary, and Robert Simmons, treasurer. Always cooperative in spirit and activity, members of the Senior class of this year have been especially prominent in student affairs. Some of the outstanding members of the class holding offices in various organizations include: James G. Scanlan, president of the ASSC; Mary Powers, secretary of the ASSC; Janet Granger, president of the AWSSC; Lisle Macdonald, secretary of the AWSSC; Fred Conync, prefect of the Sodality and president of the Lettermen’s Club; Frank Hayes, president of the Gavel Club and Senior member of the Judicial Board; William Marx, president of the Knights of the Wigwam and manager of the basketball squad; Roseanne Flynn, secretary of the Sodality, and Robert V. Mascnga, treasurer of the same organization. Seniors who have been prominent in school activities are: Germaine Hoeschen, Homecoming Queen, who reigned over all the events of that celebration; Raphael Daigle, chairman of College Night; Robert Masenga, chairman of the Fall Informal; Ruth Borbeck, co-chairman of the Fall Informal and Senior princess in the Queen’s court at Homecoming; Jeanne Testu, co-chairman of the Spring Informal. Fred Conyne was a four-year letterman and the captain of the basketball squad in his Senior year. Roseanne Flynn and Angelo Magnano were prominent members of the Gavel Club during their college years. Phillip Harrold, Joseph Oakes and Lisle Macdonald were outstanding in the Drama Guild. William Marx was playing coach of the tennis team for the past two years. Robert Simmons, a talented Senior, wrote the play presented at College Night and was prominent on the Spectator staff and the Aegis. The Senior class has engaged in no organized class activities this year; however, their efforts have been lent in behalf of all activities of the entire college. Senior names have been outstanding on the Spectator staff and have been responsible for the great progress which the paper has attained this year. The Drama Guild, Gavel Club, and the Sodality all owe their success to the efforts of individual Seniors. The Senior class as individuals have been leaders in all school functions. The A.S.S.C., the A.W.S.S.C., the Judicial Board, and the Advisory Board owe their advancements to the efforts of this group. The success of the social functions of the school has been due to the high spirit of loyalty of this class towards their Alma Mater. The Senior Class of 1939 is greatly appreciated by the faculty and the entire student body for the influence and efforts which they expounded to make this an even greater Seattle College.

At the first class meeting of the year, Bernard Bud” Bader was III elected president; Helen McLendon, vice-president; Rosemary Weil, secretary; Tommy Ryan, treasurer, and Fred Runnels, sergeant-at-arms. Several Freshmen students were active in drama during the year, among whom were Robert Irvine, Donald Styer, Joan McHugh, Barbara Fallon, Monica Hoffman, Fred Runnels, and Betty Germcr. The Freshman class play, under the able direction of Bob Irvine, was an excellent production. Freshmen class representatives on the college basketball team were Tommy Ryan, star guard for the team, and Ed Waite. An excellent cheering section was organized by Hugo Bud” Staakc, which spurred the hoopsters on to victory. Twenty-three members of the Freshman class were on the Spectator staff, outstanding among whom were Robert Wilkinson and Ed Waite as the associate sports editors, and Mary Donaghy, copy editor. One of the major activities in which the Freshman class participated was the Freshman-Sophomore Bam Dance. Genevieve Mitchell was the Freshman chairman for the dance and helped to make it the great success which it was. Those who served on her committee were Fred Runnels, Jack Terhar, Helen McLendon, and Bob Wilkinson. Mary Cramer sang as member of the Girls’ Trio and helped to swell the popularity of the Glee Club, as did many other Freshman students. Collins Fives, also a Freshman, sang in the men’s quartet and also was a feature singer at the Homecoming Dance. I GROUP ONE First Row: Helen Scarim, Barbara Sexton.

RUNNELS First Vice-President MRS. LEO FALLON Second Vice-President MRS. JOHN GILL Recording Secretory MRS. JOHN McMANUS T reasurer TWl 'HE Seattle College Mothers' Club was first organized on April 27, 1924. Since this time it has grown III to be one of the most efficient organizations functioning for the benefit of the school. Membership is ..111 open to all mothers of college students who desire to take an active interest in the college and its function. The primary activity of the Mothers' Club is their Italian dinner. This year marked its third anniversary. It was held at the Casa Italiana on March 5 and it proved to be both a financial and a social success. All of the expenses for the dinner were defrayed by means of a series of vanishing parties, thus the proceeds in their entirety were presented to the faculty. Mrs. Arthur Sauvain, president of the Mothers’ Club, was also general chairman of the dinner. Mrs. William Smith was ticket chairman and Mrs. J. D. Runnels and Mrs. John Snecringcr were in charge of the dining room. The Mothers’ Club gave invaluable aid toward the redecoration of the girls’ room. Under the supervision of Mrs. J. D. Runnels, Mrs. John Snecringcr and Mrs. George Powers the girls’ lounge has been refurnished into a very attractive recreation room. Working with the faculty the club has been endeavoring to find a suitable residence for the women students. To date no successful scheme has evolved, but it is hoped that in view of the rapidly growing student body, the women students will soon have a satisfactory residence. Another annual event which the Mothers’ Club sponsors is the graduation breakfast. This is held in honor of the Seniors of Seattle College following their Baculaureate Mass and exercises. SODALITY ROSEANNE FLYNN FREDERICK CONYNE MARY BUCHANAN ROBERT MASENGA Secretary Prefed Vice-Prcfed T reaturer THE SODALITY of the Blessed Virgin was established in Seattle College on March 5, 1905. The object of the Sodality, the instillation of principles of Catholic Action into the minds of the students, is achieved by studying the social programs as well as by actual participation and active interest in parochial work. The Sodality, through devotion to the Blessed Virgin, endeavors to impress upon the hearts of its members the essence of Catholicism, personal sanctification. Bi-monthly meetings are held at Providence Auditorium. Rev. Howard Peronteau, S.J., moderator of the group, opens each meeting with the Mcmorare. This is followed by a brief meditation on some phase of the life of Christ, after which a decade of the Rosary is recited. Lectures, given by some prominent priest or layman; student discussions or quizzes complete the meeting proper. A social hour fills in the remainder of the evening. The principal topic for discussion throughout the past year has been Communism, the attitude of the world concerning it, the influence which it has had on governments both of other countries and our own. It has been firmly impressed upon the Sodalists that the task of wiping out Communism and replacing its diabolic philosophy with firm Catholic principles falls upon the shoulders of young Catholic men and women. Speakers with firsthand information concerning the situation in Spain, Mexico and Russia have stressed this point in their very valuable and interesting talks to the students. Stressing the admirable work of the Jocist, or the Catholic youth movement, which, originating in Belgium, has spread throughout Europe, Mr. William O’Connell, editor of the Catholic Northwest Progress, afforded one of the most interesting lectures on Catholic Action. He emphasized the good that this movement was doing in Europe and the crying need for a similar organization in this country. Taking the form of a scries of quizzes, a new plan of instruction was introduced into the meetings. The Mass, its Ordinary, and its various prayers furnished subject matter for the first of these quizzes. A process of elimination extending over a period of three meetings was survived by Ted Terry, who for his thorough knowledge of the Mass was presented with a handsome leather-bound missal. The Mass during the early days of the Church provided subject matter for the second of the scries of quizzes. Janet Granger was rewarded a rosary for her knowledge of the subject. 1 ♦ 34 ■ Group picture of one of the many Sodality meetings held at Providence Auditorium. Besides the usual social hours following business meetings, the Sodality staged a Hallowe’en party on October thirty-first at the Knights of Columbus Hall. Two Communion Breakfasts were sponsored during the year: the first on December the eighth, the feast of the Immaculate Conception; the second on Ascension Thursday, the eighteenth of May. The students attended Mass and received communion in a body at St. Joseph’s Church. After Mass all sojourned to the church hall where breakfast was served. The Associated Women took charge of the first breakfast; the men did a very fine job of handling the second. Sponsoring their annual Christmas basket drive the Sodality brought Christmas cheer into the hearts of many this year. This event was under the chairmanship of Louis Sauvain assisted by an able committee of Ruth Borbcck, Dorothy Bailey, Mary Murphy, Vincent Scallon, Bernard Bader, and James Scanlan. The offices in the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin during the year 1938-39 were held by Fred Conyne, as prefect; Mary Buchanan, vice-prefect; Rosannc Flynn, secretary, and Robert Masenga, treasurer. The counselors were Ruth Borbcck, Anne McKinnon, Ellen McHugh, Louis Sauvain, Bernard Bader, and Angelo Magnano.

FREDFRICK HARRISON, S.J. Faculty Advisor MARY DOHERTY Treasurer FRANK HAYES President PAUL NARIGI Secretary THE SEA I II. E COLLEGE GAVEL CLUB, debating society, completing its sixth year of existence, is known as one of the foremost activity” organizations in the College; a recognition founded on a proud career of progress and achievement. The purpose of the society, as outlined in its constitution, is to provide students with an opportunity to acquire self-confidence, poise, and speaking ability, as well as to impart a knowledge of debate methods and parliamentary law. Membership is therefore strictly regulated to secure the maximum benefit for the individual. More than thirty members now attend the weekly meetings of the club, held every Wednesday evening in the library. Each meeting is featured by a debate between four club members. By a process of rotation every member is given the opportunity to debate at least twice a year. A wide variety of subjects, some humorous, some serious, are proposed for these weekly debates. Several times during the year, the regular weekly debate was waived in favor of extemporaneous and ''after-dinner” speaking contests. In addition to this regular debating activity, the Gavel Club sponsored several important forensic tournaments. The first such promotional activity was the third annual Catholic High School Debate and Oratorical Contest held at the College on December 17. The topic discussed was, Resolved: That the United States and Great Britain should form a military alliance.” High schools participating in this meet included Seattle Preparatory, Gonzaga High, Bcllarminc of Tacoma, Marycliffe of Spokane, and St. Joseph's of Sprague. Marycliffe triumphed in the debate finals over Gonzaga, while Seattle Preparatory, represented by John Cannon, was awarded the championship cup in oratory. Paul Narigi and Mary Martha O’Brien were co-chairmen of the committee in charge of arranging the tournament. The Gavel Club also undertook the sponsorship of the third annual President's Cup Debate. The debate which this year centered around the topic, Resolved: That Craft Unionism is more beneficial to Labor and Society than Industrial Unionism,” is an intramural tournament open to the entire student body. Eliminations for this year’s contest began May 1, with more than twenty teams competing for final round positions. The finals, held the night of May 10 at the Providence Auditorium, pitted the two best affirmative speakers against the two best negatives, thus exhibiting the pick of Seattle Collge forensic talent on one platform. In an effort to finance the various debate activities of the 1938-1939 season, the Gavel Club sponsored a series of extra-club social affairs. Two skating parties were held; the first at Plavland in the fall quarter, and the second, the annual Gavel Glide,” at the Ridge Rink during the spring quarter. Anne McKinnon and Joseph 36 i I i A scene at one of the Gavel Club meetings held every Wednesday evening. Finalists of the Northwest Catholic High School Debate Tournament. MeMurray were co-chairmen for both events. Two mixers were also held; one at the beginning of the winter quarter and the other during the spring quarter. Both dances were tinder the co-chairmanship of- Roseanne Flynn and Martin Sloane. All of these activities were marked successes, both from a social and financial viewpoint. Separate from the Gavel Club, yet relying on the club for most of its membership and financial support, is the Inter-collegiate Forensic Division, familiarly known as the Debate Squad.” Senior division inter-collegiate debaters arc Frank Hayes, Angelo Magna no, and Roseanne Flynn. Junior division members of the squad arc Abner DeFelice, Charles Knowlton, Joseph MeMurray, Paul Narigi, Maurice O’Brien, Alfred Plachta, Martin Sloane, Helen Carey, and Anne McKinnon. The year 1938-1939 was truly one of singular achievement for the varsity debaters. Carrying the colors of Seattle College further afield than ever before, the Debate Squad traveled over 4000 miles up and down the Pacific Coast to engage some 35 western colleges in more than 100 debates. In the course of the season Seattle College debaters encounterd representatives of such schools as Gonzaga, Santa Clara, St. Mary’s, University of San Francisco, Stanford, Redlands, University of Oregon, Linfield, Washington State, and University of British Columbia. Mr. Harrison, S.J., served as Debate Coach, and under his able tutelage much progress was achieved both in intra-mural and intcr-collcgiatc debating. 37 flUJSSC Standing, — JANET GRANGER. President; LISLE MACDONALD. Vice-President-, ROSEMARY SMITH. Secretary Seated — MARIE LEONARD. Dean of Women THE ASSOCIATED WOMEN STUDENTS of Seattle College was founded in 1933. Since that time the organization has made rapid strides of progress until now it has become an extremely influential unit in the activities of Seattle College. To this year’s president, Janet Granger, is especially due the many achievements realized by the AWSSC. Most outstanding among the activities of the Girl’s Club was the Tolo. Under the able leadership of Anne McKinnon, Seattle College coeds and their lucky young men enjoyed an evening of Colonial Capers to the tunes of Center Case and his orchestra. Carrying out the colonial motif the dance was held February 3 at the D.A.R.. Clubhouse. Bustling hoop skirts, hair piled high, and nosegays were in evidence throughout the evening. Those assisting Miss McKinnon as her committee were Mary D. Sanderson, Mavis McCreery, Rose-anne Flynn, Mary Powers, Jeanne Ryan, Katherine Leonard. Lorrayne Eisen and Peggy McGowan. This year saw a renovation of the women’s lounge by the Associated Women. Plans were formulated and achieved by a committee headed by Mavis McCreery with the aid of the Seattle College Mothers’ Club. Mrs. G. D. Runnels, Mrs. John Sneeringer and Mrs. George Powers served as the committee representing the Mothers’ Club and Barbara Fallon, Ann Smith, Loretta Sneeringer, Barbara Sexton, Virginia Wclpton and Lois Eisen formed the committee of students under Miss McCreery. New draperies, couches, and a radio added to the attractiveness of the third floor recreation room. The AWSSC has successfully sponsored a year-round candy stand and occasional hot dog sales on the first floor of the building. Maxanna Keene was the chairman of the candy stand and Margaret Dillon was in charge of the weiners and buns. Both ventures proved highly successful and were greatly appreciated by all the students. Among other activities sponsored by the girls’ club were a mixer, two teas and a communion breakfast. The mixer was held early in the month of October and was for girls only. The purpose was that the girls might become better acquainted with one another. The affair was held in St. Teresa’s Social Hall, under the chairmanship of Rosemary Smith, Charlotte Jeker and Mary Martha O’Brien. The dance attracted a great many and helped to further the spirit of cooperation which was later manifested by the AWSSC. Ellen McHugh was chairman of the tea sponsored annually in honor of the Seattle College mothers. This formal tea was held on October 26. At that time mothers gathered in the autumn-leaf decorated hall at Saint Teresa’s to be the guests of the AWSSC for the afternoon. Assisting Miss McHugh on her committee were Margaret Dillon, Ida Fuchs, Charlotte Jeker, Esther Lamoureux, Margaret Liddane, Florence Gilbert, Eileen McBride, Peggy McGowan, Rosemary Smith, Theresa Croteau and Maxanna Keene.

In the spring of the year the girls’ club sponsored another tea in conjunction with the student drive committee. This also was held at Saint Teresa’s social hall. At this time girls from all of the various Catholic high schools throughout the Northwest were the guests of the coeds of Seattle College. Endeavoring to aid college students in the proper form of things to do and not to do, the girls’ club has formulated plans for the publication of an etiquette book. Mary Ellen Beyer has been appointed editor and is in charge of collecting the various do’s and don’t’s. As yet this is a comparatively new undertaking and as such, little progress has been shown. However, plans indicate that it will be published some time next fall. 39 DRflmn GUILD DRAMA OFFICERS Standing — Robert Hiltenbrand, Business Manager, Ellen McHugh, Secretary: Joseph Oakes, Business Manager. Seated — Mary Buchanan, President: Frederick Runnels, Publicity Manager; Lisle Macdonald, Production Manager. ■HI] 'HE Seattle College Drama Guild lias just completed its most successful year in the history of the school. III This rapid stride of progress in the guild for the year 1938-39 is due to the untiring efforts and whole-111 hearted interest of each and every member of the club. Various changes have taken place in the drama department in the last year. Early in the year Miss Catherine McDonnell, a graduate of the Cornish School of Drama, was appointed director. Great changes and improvements were immediately noted upon this appointment. With the introduction of a class in drama taught by Miss McDonnell an active rather than a passive interest in the subject was noted. Officers for the Drama Guild for the year 1938-39 were: Chuck Weil, president; Mary Buchanan, vice-president; Ellen McHugh, secretary-treasurer; Lisle Macdonald, production manager; Joseph Oakes, publicity manager, and Frederick Runnels and Robert Hiltenbrand, business managers. In the spring quarter of this year, due to Mr. Weil’s departure from school, Miss Buchanan took over the office of president for the remainder of the season. Mr. John Murphy, S.J., acted as faculty advisor. A new phase of drama has been introduced into the guild this year in the form of the writing of one-act plays. This was accomplished by Robert Simmons assisted by William Bates. The skits were presented at various times throughout the year, chief among them being College Night, Drama Guild meetings and various high schools throughout the city. A one-act play contest among the classes was inaugurated this year. The date of the contest was scheduled for April 27. Lisle Macdonald took over the direction of the skit for the Seniors; Ellen McHugh for the Juniors; Eileen McBride for the Sophomores, and Robert Irvine for the Freshmen. This proved very beneficial in giving all interested an opportunity to perform and also in uncovering new talent. The Drama Guild presents three major productions each year. The first of these was the three-act play, The Heathers at Home,” by William Kimball. This was given December 1 and 2 at Providence Auditorium. The leads were very ably carried by Nadine Gubbins, Betty Germer, Raphael Daigle and William Shearer, with a fine supporting cast including Virginia Gemmill, Dorothy Griffin. Frank Elliott, Vincent Scallon, Dominic Rosi, Phillip Harrold and Frederick Runnels.

Aklin has completed its fourth successful year. -11L Started in the fall quarter of 1955, the group has grown steadily in quality and quantity due to the untiring efforts of its supervisors, the enthusiasm of Glee Club members and the cooperation of the student body at large. The entire Glee Club is composed of forty members. The organization has gained fame as a harmonious and well organized group because of its excellent rendition of songs such as: A College Song, by Anon; Sanctus, by Schubert; I.and of Our Hearts, by Chadwick; Soldiers' Chorus, by Gaunad; March of the Guards, by Schubert-Wilson; and Rain and the River, by Fox. The large group is divided into the women’s glee club and the men’s glee club. Included in the repertoire of the women's division arc songs such as Moments Musical, by Schubert; and the Are Maria by Schubcrt-Ricggcr. Leslie Rein carried the tenor solo in the latter selection. The men’s glee club composed of 18 students presented interesting selections such as the Caisson Song, by Gruber; Three Chafers, by Truhn, and Vive I.'Amour, an old student song. Outstanding features of the Glee Club were the men’s quartet and the women’s trio. The men’s quartet was composed of Leslie Rein, first tenor; John Dillon, second tenor; Collins Fives, first bass, and bred Chouinard, second bass. This group become very popular for its excellent interpretation of its novelty numbers as well as their rendition of unusual selections. Among songs sung by the men’s quartet were Pale Moon, by Logan; Shortnin' Bread, by Wolfe, and johnny Schmocker. a German student song. The women’s trio was composed of Cecelia Cramer, first soprano; Mary Cramer, second soprano, and Elizabeth Sandmeyer, alto.

The Glee Club presented its initial concert at College Night, the annual celebration which takes place at the close of the fall quarter. The remainder of the concerts took place during the winter and spring quarter. These were given in the form of formal and informal concerts. The formal concerts took place during the winter quarter, having been presented in the evening at various halls throughout the city of Seattle and neighboring towns. Formal evening concerts were presented this year at St. Joseph’s, Sacred Heart, Immaculate Conception. St. Edward’s, Mt.

Those schools where concerts were presented include O’Dca High, Seattle Preparatory, Holy Names Academy, Forest Ridge Convent and the Immaculate High School. The Glee Club is organized as two separate groups — the men’s glee club and the women’s glee club, which function independently of each other. Heading the boys’ glee club as its president is Robert Simmons. The vice-presidency was held by Edward Harman. Ralph Morrison was librarian and John Dillon was transportation manager aided by William Miller. In the women’s glee club Elizabeth Sandmeir held the office of president; Mary Buchanan was vice-president; Eileen McBride, librarian, and Amelia Schoevers, transportation manager. Eileen McBride and Fred Runnels were appointed to assist in arranging the concerts. Mr. Walter Aklin, director of the Glee Club, deserves the heart-felt appreciation of the chorus, for it was through lus untiring efforts that the club achieved its perfection. Mr. Aklin is a noted teacher of pianoforte and the director of a German choral society here in Seattle. He is a graduate of the Zurich Conservatory of Music. To Reverend Daniel J. Reidy, S.J., is due similar appreciation. He brought to the College Glee Club experience gained in a similar post at Gonzaga, where he was instrumental in organizing and starting the glee club. 43 REGIS ADDISON SMITH Ed'.tor-in-Chief WILLIAM MILLER Advertising Manager ELLEN McHUGH Assistant Editor MARY MARTHA OBRIEN Class Editor WILLIAM KELLY A ssistant Editor FRANK ELLIOTT Activities Editor WILLIAM RUSSELL Business Manager WILLIAM BATES Sports Editor f nil 'HIS 1939 edition marks the third publication of the student’s year book — the AEGIS. Published I first in the year 1937, the AEGIS has made remarkable progress in giving personal satisfaction to the -111- students of Seattle College. The primary purpose of such a publication should naturally be to present student life as it is portrayed daily by those attending this institution of higher learning. The staff has endeavored to give an account of the many and well-known clubs and various activities in order that their accomplishments may not pass unnoticed. The task of publishing the AEGIS was started late in the winter quarter after many delays and numerous difficulties beyond the control of the students. Addison Smith was elected editor-in-chief with Ellen McHugh and William Kelly as associate editors. The editorial staff was completed with Mary Martha O'Brien, class editor; Frank Elliott, activities editor; William Bates, sports editor. Business matters were handled by William Russell, who held the position of business manager. Able assistants to the business manager were William Miller, advertising manager, and Roseanne Flynn, circulation manager. The difficulties encountered by the staff were chiefly of a financial nature and consequently the success or financial failure of this book rested upon the shoulders of these faithful few. Faced with a deficit from a former publication, the problem was doubly acute. After many hours of unselfish and tireless drudgery the business staff completed their financial drive and closed their books showing a slight profit after paving all former obligations. The staff will forever be indebted to Mr. John J. Murphy, S.J., faculty moderator, whose tireless efforts made possible the publication of the 1939 AEGIS.

With one quarter’s experience behind him, Charles Weil resumed the editorship with the following chosen as his staff: Lisle Macdonald and Robert Simmons, associate editors; William Bates, sports editor; and Robert Brandmcir, business manager. Weil, bushy-eyebrowed, abrupt, energetic, realized the goal of many former editors in a weekly publication. A policy of leadership in school activities was formulated and the new editor undertook the doubled task with characteristic drive” and optimism. Ten issues were published in the fall quarter, 1938, and the resumption of publication on January 12, 1939, saw a revised staff at work, including many underclassmen, evidencing the increased influence and pressure being exerted by the large Freshman and Sophomore classes. The new staff: Raphael Daigle, associate editor; Betty Kumhera, news editor; Margaret Scheubcrt, feature editor; William Storey, advertising manager; and William Bates, sports editor. The nine issues of the winter quarter of 1939 were marked by conflicts and issues occasioned by Editor Weil’s participation in school affairs. Determined to be a leading factor in school affairs, Weil aroused new vitality and interest in opposition if not in cooperation. With the end of the winter quarter came a surprise in the announcement of Weil’s resignation as editor. Following Frank Hayes, in resigning at the beginning of spring quarter, Weil resigned after a year as editor in favor of outside interests. Elected to serve as editor for the spring quarter was William Bates, sports editor and Sophomore. Bates, direct, blunt, and with definite ideas, chose as his staff Raphael Daigle, managing editor; William Kelly, news editor; Margaret Scheubcrt, feature editor; Robert Wilkinson, Ed Waite, associate sports editors; Dan Hill,, business manager; and Vincent Scallon, advertising manager.

Journalistic style and Catholic Action were selected by Bates as aims by which to model the nine issues he published, beginning with March 28, 1939. New features in the 1938-1939 Spectator were: Candid Comment, by Betty Kumhera; —And I Do Mean You, by Margaret Schcubert; and two sports columns, Chieftain Chatter, by William Bates; and Wigwam Wanderings, by Waite and Wilkinson. Features from the preceding year were The Student Observer, by William Marx; I he Sporting Thing, by Lisle Macdonald; Begged, Borrowed, or Stolen, Exchange; and For ’A That, by Robert Simmons. Many columns of varied themes were written by underclassmen and a wide range of styles and subjects were covered. Intercollegiate press items and news briefs were featured and news concerning people was stressed.

Bottom Row: Fr. Beczer. S.J., Faculty Advisor; Ernest Tardif. President; Margaret Neukum, Secretary. INGE its organization in 1934 the steady influx of members into the Mendel Club has aided numerous students in the attaining of their aims in the fields of Medicine, Nursing and Biology. The club owes its solid foundation and remarkable success to the untiring and inspiring efforts of Mr. Leo Schmidt, S.J. To his careful guidance and unquenchable zeal the club owes its growth from an original group of seven members to a flourishing organization of sixty-nine students. Twenty-eight of these are pre-medics, thirty-four are nursing students, and four are majoring in biology. The club is named in honor of Gregor Johann Mendel, the Augustinian monk, whose famous thesis formed the basis of modern genetics, which he commenced studying because of his love for the truth and his dissatisfaction of the theories of Darwin. During his fifteen years of teaching he was genuinely devoted to his work and he gained the reputation of being extremely successful in interesting his students in their work. On this admirable characteristic docs the Mendel Club base its doctrine and principles. The purpose of the club is to concern its members in their studies and instill into them an eager desire to go to the top in their chosen profession. At half of its bi-weekly meetings the club invites a doctor to give a lecture on some topic which is of interest to the group; after which the members arc free to ask the speaker any question they wish pertaining to the subject of dissertation. Some of the noteworthy lectures presented to the group during this scholastic year were those of Fr. James B. McGoldrick, S.J., Dr. Hunter McKay, Dr. Neuscme, and Dr. Frank Carroll. Fr. McGoldrick rendered an extremely educational lecture on psychiatry, and Dr. McKay spoke on acute appendicitis and clearly pointed out the grave dangers that result from an ignorant and improper treatment of this malady. Dr. Neusome, city epidermologist, proved the necessity of a quarantine against rabies. Dr. Carroll, city health commissioner, presented a most thorough outline of the functions of the Seattle Health Department and the wide range of its activities. 48 I A group meeting of the Mendel Club at which Dr. Frank Carroll, city health commissioner, spoke. A scene of the Bacteriology Laboratory of the pre-medical and pre-nursing departments of the college. During the other meetings any member who wishes may deliver a paper on any subject that is of interest to himself or to the members. At the completion he must answer all questions proposed to him by the assembly. Joe Lcgrand enlightened the members with his discussion of osteomyelitis. Another of the educational undertakings of the Mendel Gub was the visit to the Tumor Institute at the Swedish Hospital. The members were shown about the radium rooms and were told of the manner in which superficial and deep-seated cancers are treated with the radium emanations. Dr. Parker explained in detail the operation of the immense 800,000-volt X-ray machine which is not surpassed in efficiency by any machine of its nature in the world. Social activities arc not to be neglected by the Mendel Club. Each business meeting is followed by refreshments and informal seminars. This year the annual banquet was given at the Russian Samovar. At this affair, Ernest Tardif, president of the club, introduced Fr. Beezer, toastmaster, who told of the ever-increasing competition for entrance into medical school. Dr. McKay related some of his experiences while attending school prior to receiving his doctorate. Dr. Werby introduced and initiated the members of the newly-formed nursing honorary society. Alpha Nu. Clare Costello delivered a short history of the club, and John Power, an orderly, related the duties of orderlies in city hospitals. The Mendel Club elects its officers at the second to the last meeting of the year and they arc installed at the meeting. For the year 1938-1939 officers were Ernest Tardif, president; Dan Hogan, vice-president; Margaret Ncukum, secretary; and Joe Legrand. treasurer. Fr. Beezer, S.J., acts as faculty advisor. 49 PI SIGMA CHI James Cunningham, Secretary-Treasurer-, Fr. Beezer, S.

Largely through the efforts of Dr. Werby, the club saw its formation February 14. Pi Sigma Chi was started to fulfill the need of an organized interest in furthering the aims of the pre-medical students. The requirements set were sixty quarter-hours work, with a 5.0 grade average in the sciences and a 2.7 average in the general academic courses. ALP] A LPHA NU, women’s honorary sorority for students in the department of Nursing Education, was founded at Seattle College on February 7, 1959. At this time the first officers of the organization were chosen. Ruth HuettI was elected president; Ila Schandler, vice-president; Cnalee Campbell, secretary; Jeanette Doucet, treasurer; Catherine Campbell, publicity director; Dr. Helen Werby, faculty advisor. Membership is composed of women whose grade average is 5.0 or over, and at present is composed of twenty-two members. Alpha Nu has the distinction of being the first Greek letter society to be organized at the College. 50 MIGHTS Of TH6 UUIGUJflm KNIGHTS OF T HH WIGWAM — hirst to : Don Styer, Bernard Storey, Bob Simmon , Bill Marx.

''Ill 'HE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB of Seattle College is one of 1100 in colleges through- III out the world, 900 of which are in the United States. The clubs form a unit of the Carnegie Endowment 111 for International Peace, and aim to promote more harmonious relations through understanding and appreciation of other nations. Regular meetings are held once each month at which current international events are reported and discussed, foreign motion pictures shown, or outstanding authorities heard on international problems. An innovation this year was a scries of lectures presented between regular meetings by different foreign consuls residing in Seattle. Among the speakers who attended were A. Vanderspek, Northwest consul for the Dutch Netherlands, and Chester Chastek. consul for Czechoslovakia in Seattle. These were secured by the club moderator, Dr. Bernard Bicrman, J.U.D., to whom is due much of the credit for the increased activity and growth of the IRC at Seattle College. The International Relations Club presented a display at Homecoming, depicting its activities and displaying many of the books and pamphlets furnished by the endowment for use of all students, both members and non-members. Highlights of the year’s activity was the Regional IRC Conference held on March 24 and 25. The conclave was held at the Central Washington College of Education, at Ellensburg, Washington. The Seattle College IRC was represented with a delegation of ten students. These included Peggy Ann McGowan, Ann Smith, Lois Eisen, Mavis McCreery, Dan Hill, Robert Wilkinson, Edward Waite, Bill Russell and Jud Todd. Mr. Henry Borzo attended as advisor of the club. Approximately 250 delegates were present from colleges of four Northwest states and three provinces of Canada. Robert Wilkinson of the College was selected as secretary of the American Foreign Policy round table discussion. Jud Todd read a paper on the Jewish question, and its Relation to the International Security of Europe.” Officers of the IRC are elected twice yearly. Those who headed the group for the first half of the school year were Mary Martha O’Brien, president; Robert Brandmeir. secretary; and Barbara Fallon, treasurer. In January these officers were succeeded by Dan Hill, president; Judd Todd, secretary; and Phillip Harrold, treasurer. PHVSICS CLUB Mr. Lupcr, S.J.. Ralph Morrison, Fred Sexton.

Established in the winter quarter of 1957, it has speedily grown into an active organization deeply interested in its particular field of study. Chosen to lead the Seattle College Physics Club in the second year of its organization were Bernard Storey, president; Vernon Robinson, vice-president; and Ralph Morrison, treasurer. Mr. Paul Lugcr, S.J., professor of physics, has continued in his capacity as moderator and advisor of the society. Although composed of only a score of members the society has become very active. Its membership is made up of twenty students who are actively interested in various phases of physics, radio, photography, electricity and meteorology. Chief among the advancements manifested by the society arc the radio transmitter, which has been secured and installed in the physics laboratory under the direction of Matt Parkinnem, and the Photography Club which has advanced and become firmly established under the able leadership of Vernon Robinson and Fred Sexton. In connection with the field of photography the club has had several men who have specialized in that line speak on the subject of photography. Most interesting among these was a talk given by Mr. Horace Sykes on color photography. As an illustration Mr. Sykes showed colored slides of points of interest in Utah. The group has also made study tours to places of interest to the physicist. Outstanding among these was their tour of the telephone company. While here they were shown through the building, and the intricacies of the dial telephone and its operations were explained in detail. The various stages of growth of telephonic communication were traced by means of models and charts. The society also visited Swedish Hospital and was shown the electrical equipment by Mr. Parker, a noted English physicist. Mr. Parker demonstrated the methods of collecting the decomposition products of radium and described the uses of radium therapy. He also showed the group the new 850,000-volt X-ray machine, the Nelson Cloud Chamber, and a cosmic and alpha-ray counter. RLumm flssocifluon edwin McCullough helen Macdonald thomas duffy President Vice-President Treasurer REALIZING the need of a strong organization to work for the advancement of a greater Seattle College, the alumni association reorganized early in the year and elected the following officers: Edwin J. McCullough, president; Helen MacDonald, vice-president; Angela Young, secretary; and Thomas Duffy, treasurer. Miss MacDonald and Miss Young have the distinction of being the first women to hold office in the alumni association which for years has been essentially a men’s organization. Work of reorganization showed plainly as the year progressed and the alumni took part in the various activities sponsored by the College. For the first time in the history of the association the alumni took over several of the annual Homecoming activities. Chief among them was the banquet held in conjunction with the other events honoring the returning graduates. Joseph Ivcrs, young Seattle attorney, acted in the capacity of toastmaster, and Joseph A. Sweeney, another attorney, was the principal speaker of the evening. The primary purpose of the alumni association is the betterment and advancement of Catholic education in Seattle by means of the high ideals inculcated in the graduates while attending Seattle College. It is the desire of this association to foster good will between graduates and students and in this manner to maintain a constant contact with all graduates of Seattle College. With such high ideals, Seattle College will, in time, have one of the strongest and most active student-graduate combinations of any Catholic college in the nation. Meetings of the alumni association are held three times during the scholastic year at Seattle Prep School. Mass and communion are followed by a breakfast meeting in the refectory. Many prominent alumni speak at these meetings and any current business of the association is discussed. Rev. Howard Pcronteau, S.J., faculty moderator of the association, has been instrumental in the work of reorganization of the alumni. It is through his efforts and labor that the alumni are at last coming into their own. To Mr. McCullough, president of the association, is due much of the new life injected into the organization. The active participation of the alumni in all events given by the students of the College has been most gratifying. Their loyalty to their alma mater sets the pace for the present student, a pace which will be difficult to maintain. 54 4 55 56 BASK6TBALL JOSEPH BUDNICK, Couch Coach of the 1959 Chieftain squad; learned his. basketball under AI Schuss; specialized in screens and blocks; asked nothing of his players but obedience; an ex-Chicftain of two years back. FRED CONYNE.Captain Captain of this year’s basketball team: a driving player who went all the way in the ball game; ended his college basketball career in a blaze of glory. JOHN DOWNES Tall John ranges some six feet four inches; played his best basketball this year; a cool customer with a lot of fighting spirit; one of the best-liked men on the squad. JOHNNY KATICA First year at Seattle College; leading scorer of the Chieftain squad; has an uncanny one-hand push shot; one of the best men ever to play for the Chiefs. JOE MERRICK List year’s high point man; became a much steadier player this year; exceptionally accurate on his southpaw flip shots; usually assigned the toughest man to check. BOB WINDY REYNOLDS A wide-open casaba player; possesses the most unorthodox style of play in Seattle; always high in the scoring lists; alternated at guard or center. TOMMY RYAN A tiny forward who always plays head-up ball; a fast spirited player who provided the necessary spark for the Warriors; averaged about seven points a game. LOU SAUVAIN A rugged, driving player who plays his best when the going is tough; also possessed the doubtful honor of being the team card; forced to quit in mid-season; a valuable man to have back. ED WAITE Tall, unemotional Chieftain just breaking into the big time; will help a lot next year; kept on the bench most of the season; has the qualities needed in a good ball player. HAL WYMAN Transfer letterman from Gonzaga; played good ball for the Chiefs; played either forward or guard; fit in well with Coach Budnich’s style of play. JOHNNY McGARRY Manager of the Chieftain squad, in his second year at that post; well liked by all the team; worked hard and long hours for his boys’ ; is a past master at the art of keeping tempermental ball players coo! and collected. 57 BASKETBALL THEY won 5 and lost 12! That is the story of the 1938-39 edition of the Seattle College Chieftains. Playing in the Garrigan Gymnasium when at home, and meeting many of the best teams in the states of Washington and Oregon, the Chieftains took the breaks as they came, and most of the breaks were bad. A new coach was the first acquisition of the Braves. Joseph Budnick, a varsity player on the college team of two years back, was selected to fill the post left open by the unavoidable departure of Coach Bill Murphy. Coach Budnick is a man well versed in all the fundamentals of the hoop game, and he passed that knowledge on to his players in a workmanlike fashion. Possessed of a driving nature, Coach Budnick worked hard and long to thoroughly ground the new Warriors in his style of play. Captain Freddy Conync, the team’s only Senior, led his team into all of the frays with a determination and fighting spirit not often seen in collegiate basketball. Conync is a ficry-thatched man who has played four years of basketball under the various styles of play as taught by the different mentors at Seattle College, yet when Coach Budnick took over this year, Captain Conync aided greatly in getting the squad into Budnick’s style of play. As to the squad itself there were many new faces when the Braves took the floor for the first time in 1938. Those newcomers were Johnny Katica, Hal Wyman, Tommy Ryan, Mike Begley, Ed Waite, Dave Dunton and Woody Borg. The leading scorer for the season was Sophomore Johnny Katica. The tall underclassman netted a cool 187 for the season, thus eclipsing Joe Merrick’s last year record of 172. The players who had seen former duty on college teams were Joe Merrick, Windy Reynolds, Lou Sauvain, and Johnny Downes. With the exception of Sauvain, who had to drop from the team in mid-season, the veterans performed nobly on the Chieftain quintet. Merrick, last year’s high-point man, played exceptionally good ball, and improved one hundred per cent in his floor work. Windy Reynolds put on exhibitions of ball-hawking that amazed the fans game after game. Long John Downes turned in the best basketball of a glittering college career this season. A tall man, towering some six feet four inches into the ozone, Downes checked some of the best men in the state and did the job well. The new players showed up well throughout the entire season. As was mentioned before, the team’s leading scorer was Johnny Katica, a transfer from the University of Washington. Katica was not the star’’ type of player. He played team ball all the way through and his high total merely shows his uncanny ability on the court. Another newcomer who showed well was Tom Ryan. Ryan, a Freshman, played sixty-minute basketball every game. He was a starter on the Budnick machine, and one of the main cogs in the scoring department. Mike Begley, a Sophomore, won his first letter this year, and in so doing kept up the fine spirit that he showed for O'Dea High. Begley played forward for the Chiefs, and lie performed with class every time out. Hal Wyman, a Gonzaga transfer, played high class ball in every game and gave promise for greater things next year. Dave Dunton, Woody Borg and Ed Waite ail showed plenty of possibilities, but Coach Budnick decided to keep them out for another year of seasoning. As to the season, after the first few preliminary games, the Chiefs swept into their regular season of play. As the games went by, it became more and more apparent that the Warriors were slowly building to a potent hoop machine. Coach Budnick’s deceptive style of play had taken quite a while to catch on, but as the players became more used to it, the victories appeared with greater regularity. As always, the Big Game for the Warriors is the tilt with St. Martin’s. In a swift two out of three series, the college squad took the coveted Italian Club trophy away from the Rangers. Other games included those with Mount Angels, U.B.C., P.L.C. and Ellensburg. The season is over. Suits are put away, and the players have memories of hard-won victories and bitter defeats. The spirit of the Seattle College team of 1938-39 will never die. Playing to hostile crowds, or friendly crowds, the Chieftains never forgot that they represented Seattle College, a school with a reputation to uphold. I 59 Tennis Top row: William Marx, coach; Pat Murphy, Lou Sauvain, Bernard Bader Lower row: Dean Moran, Frank Ryan, William Bates, manager. [W—'HE year 1939 can be said to be a mighty successful year for the College’s new major sport, tennis. An III adequate budget, a wealth of playing material, an exceptionally capable coaching staff, and a surprising III amount of student interest and support were combined to give the college a winning team. Early in the winter quarter the Athletic Board announced the appointment of William Marx as coach for Varsity and Junior Varsity tennis teams. At the same time an appropriation sufficient to insure adequate intercollegiate competition was granted. William Bates and John McGarry were appointed manager and field manager respectively. After three weeks of intensive practice the Varsity played and won their first match with Gonzaga University, winning easily six matches to three. Picture portraits of Varsity squad regulars include: Pat Murphy—possibly the finest player on the squad; his crisp, clean stroking was a distinct pleasure to watch. Lou Sauvain—A three-year veteran, hard-hitting, dependable and the possessor of a sizzling service. Bill Marx—Player-coach, four-year veteran; always plays best when the going is rough, specialist in chop and drop shots. Has lost but one match in three years. Jack Adams—A newcomer won his first match against Gonzaga, a slim red-headed chap with a fine tennis future. Bernard Bader—A two-year letter winner possessor of a great competitive spirit plus a smooth flat drive, stroking and a puzzling kangaroo hop” service. Dean Moran—One of the hardest workers and smoothest stylists on the squad. A man to keep your eye on. Jim Stack—His first year as a Varsity regular; has a fine smash and a steady, dependable ground game. Clark McDonald—A fine shot-maker, plays craftily, has the facility of coming from behind to win. In the Junior Varsity squad the College has a group of fine players of whom it may well be proud. A schedule was arranged and they enjoyed a fine season. Squad members include: Frank Ryan, Frank Buty, Fred Herman, Joe Oakes, Francis Quilantang, Bill Swart, Joe Fritzpatrick, Bob Wilkinson and Ed Waite. The Chieftain tennis squad played the following colleges: Gonzaga, St. Martins, Ellensburg Normal, Pacific Lutheran, University of Portland, Willamette University and Bellingham Normal. 60 UlTRflmURflLS BADMINTON: Bill Pectinger, Gregor MacGregor, Ray Sneeringer, Lois Eisen, Bob Green, Cornelia Cloud, Bob Wilkinson, Lorraync Eisen. Jack Terhar, Dean Moran. Tom Roc. INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL WINNERS: Woody Borg, Joe Fitzpatrick. Stanley Conroy. Tom Taylor, Hugo Staake, Don Larson. INTRODUCTION OF BADMINTON this year brought a new sport to Seattle College. Coach Jimmy Whittaker labored vigorously with a comparatively green team to give the student body a group of rugged, hard-fighting shuttle men. At the start of the winter quarter a squad of eight regulars were ready for competition. Chief among the matches scheduled were those with the Plymouth Church and the Loyolon Club. Sparked by Dean Moran and Lorrayne Eisen, the team was well able to defeat the Plymouth players 3-2. Their first match with the Loyolan Club resulted in a narrow loss. In the second match, however, the Chieftains emerged victorious. Much is expected of this group of players during the next badminton season. ''“Ill—'HE INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL LEAGUE for the year 1939 gave to Seattle College six of the finest teams in its history. The teams: Larson's Lemons, The Pick-Ups, Seminarians, Chumps, B Schweitzers and the Italians, incited in the college a spirit of clean play and good sportsmanship. This spirit prevailed throughout the entire tournament even though the teams fought bitterly to gain a place in the playoffs. The two teams that finally achieved the coveted places were the Lemons and the Pick-Ups, the Lemons having swept away with the first half and the Pick-Ups after a surprising rally taking the second half. The final score in the playoff was the Pick-Ups 41 and Lemons 34. A great deal of thanks is deserved by the boys who participated in this intramural league for it has instilled into the college an undying spirit of cooperation for one another and the school. SKI CLUB Pictures of some of (he members of the Seattle College Shi Club taken on various trips to Paradise Valley. Nachcs Pass. Mount Baker and Snoqualmie Pass. RESULTING from a mutual interest in skiing manifested by students, the Ski Club was organized in the fall quarter of 1937. At the completion of its third year it has developed into one of the most active groups in the school; growing steadily in quality and quantity, and developing in students an active interest in the sport of skiing and in genuine friendship. Heading this club in its third year were Jack Kearny as president. Peggy Lang, vice-president, and James Walsh, secretary and treasurer. Under the guardianship of these three students this year’s Ski Club has progressed greatly due to the better and more complete organization of the club. Never before was there manifested such an interest in skiing as a group, nor cooperation and friendliness. The primary purpose of the club is the furthering of the interests of the students in skiing through group organization. This purpose is attained by means of books and literature which the club has purchased, instruction by the more experienced skiers of the group, and the greater facility of transportation and accommodations found in an organized group. Following this plan the club has realized several successful trips this year. The most outstanding among these was the one taken to Mount Baker early in the season. Three week-end trips were also made to Stampede Pass and several one-day trips, the Summit, Naches Pass, Paradise and the Ski Bowl being the ski territory visited. This year’s season has seen the greater improvement of veterans and an ever-increasing number of novices. Chief among the veterans of this year’s Ski Club were William Miller, who has held a prominent place in several Silver Ski races; Jack Kearny, Peggy Lang. Edward Terry, Raymond Richards and Robert Hiltenbrand. Among the novices in the club but veterans on the ski trail were Katherine Bengston, Barbara Fallon, Mary D. Sanderson. Tom Papke, Frederick Conync and Bill Russell. There were also a great many students who took up skiing for the first time this year and who give promise of becoming experts in the sport. Skiing has progressed rapidly within the last few years and with the ever-increasing facilities for the sport in the Northwest it gives promise of becoming one of the most active all-student sports at the college. L6TT6Rmen’S CLUB LETTERMEN’S CLUB OFFICERS: Bernard Bader, Frank Ryan, Bill Marx, Fred Conync, Tom Ryan, Louis Sauvain. [H 'HE Seattle College Lettermen’s Club is composed of all those who have earned a letter in one of the III two major sports, basketball or tennis. Under the leadership of President Fred Conync, captain and HI four-year letterman of the Chieftain basketeers, the club functions and performs the activities for which it exists, including the fostering of a spirit of good sportsmanship at collegiate contests and seeing that no other athletic award letters besides those of Seattle College arc worn by students. Besides Conync, other officers of the club include: John Downes, vice-president and veteran hoopstcr; William Marx, secretary and playing-manager of the college racquet wiclders.

Following the banquet all sojourned to the New Washington Hotel, dancing to Don Isham’s Orchestra. COLLEGE IIIGHT Standing: Mary Donaghy, Betty Kumhcra. Rosemary Weil, Maxanna Keene, Lisle Macdonald. Mary Powers. Seated: Robert Simmons, Raphael Daigle, Frank Hayes, Bernard Storey. FROM the ridiculous to the sublime — this versatility was demonstrated at this year’s Seattle College Night held December 16 at Providence Auditorium. Given primarily for the parents of the students in order that they might be entertained and at the same time learn more about the institution which their sons and daughters are attending, the program was arranged so as to give the audience somewhat of a representation of college life. Faculty members were on hand to meet the parents at a short social period which followed immediately after the entertainment program. The featured spot of the program was an original dramatic skit written by Robert Simmons, a college Senior, produced under the direction of Miss Lisle Macdonald, production manager of the Drama Guild. The cast of college men and women included: Addison Smith, William Bates, Charles Weil, Louis Sauvain, Jack Robinson, Dorothy Griffin, Martin Parkinor, Vernon Robinson, Angelo Magnano, Mary Buchanan, Helen McLendon, Virginia Gcmmill, Ralph Morrison, William Brown, John Cairns, Fred Conyne, Joseph McMurray, Bernard Storey, Eugene Galvin, Thomas Taylor, and Fred Sexton. Dealing with classroom activities and well-known personages around the College, the skit afforded much amusement to the audience. Featured speakers of the evening’s program were the Rev. Francis E. Corkcry, S.J., president of the college, and James Scanlan, student body prexy. The mixed glee club, under the direction of Mr. Walter Aklin, made its initial appearance of the year, rendering several Christmas numbers including the ever popular Silent Night.” The women’s chorus sang Gounod’s Avc Maria” with tenor solo by Leslie Rein. The final musical offering was the carol Jesu Bambino,” sung by the girls’ trio consisting of Barbara Jean Forthoffer, Theresa Croteau and Mary Buchanan. The Seattle College tap team, a new and novel group under the direction of Miss Helen Powers, made a most successful debut with a short rhythmical number. Scholastic honors won by students during the fall quarter were announced by the Rev. James R. McGoldrick, dean of Seattle College. The credit for the success of this fine evening’s entertainment goes to Raphael Daigle, chairman of College Night,” and his committee which was composed of Mary Donaghy, Betty Kumhera, Maxanna Keene, Mary Powers, Rosemary Weil, Maurice O'Brien, Frank Hayes, Thomas Gable, Bernard Storey and Robert Simmons.
