Text from Pages 1 - 168 of the 1956 volume:

1956 “The worth of that is that which it contains And that is this, and this with thee remains. Shakespeare, Sonnet 74 'PcdUitAed 6-y tAe iteacitited Students Whither you may go — please pause to remember that . . . ... You arc now the living expression of Seattle University’s endowment to the Soul of human affairs. That endowment embodies the highest ideals, the most wholesome of principles and the wisdom of tradition. Yours is a cherished role among men. In your studies, you have derived direction and perspective from the truths of reason and supernatural revelation and you have explored the futility in the experiences of man when living in ignorance of them. ... It is the prayerful wish of your faculty and administration that whosoever shall come to meet you and to know you shall find in you and in your deeds the charity of love, the virtuous fortitude of purpose, and the character, culture and competence envisaged for you as Christian educated men and women. ... We ask God’s Blessings on you always. A. A. Lcmicux, S.J. President Seattle University ... To one who this year completes a golden half century of service in the Society of Jesus to God and his fellowman ... the 1956 AEGIS is respectfully dedicated. [ ‘DedieaticM •I THE REV. FRANCIS JOSEPH McGARRIGLE, S.J., was bom August 8, 1888, at Vancouver, 15. C, Canada, the son of Elizabeth Sharp and Edward James McGarrigle. Father McGarrigle received his higher education at Seattle College from 1903 to 1905 and at Gonzaga University, from which he was graduated in 1906. He entered the Jesuit novitiate at Los Gatos, California, on July 30, 1906, and remained there until the completion of his classical studies in 1911. Until 1914 he made his philosophical studies at Gonzaga University, and from 1914 to 1919 taught at the University of San Francisco and at Santa Clara. On July 30, 1921, Father McGarrigle was ordained at Ona, Spain, completing his theological studies at Valkenberg, Holland, in 1923. Graduate work in theology was done until 1925 at the Gregorian University in Rome, from where he went to Florennes, Belgium, for a year of Ascetical Theology. Father McGarrigle pronounced his last vows at Mt. St. Michael’s, Spokane, Washington, in 1926. The next eleven years were full ones for Father, during which he taught at Mt. St. Michael's, became librarian of Oriental Theology at St. Mary’s Thcologate, Kansas, was Dean of Studies of the Oregon Province, and filled the post of Assistant to the Provincial of the Province. Four of these busy years, from 1928 to 1932, were spent building and organizing the Library of the Pontifical Oriental Institute in Rome. It was at this time, also, that Father was sent by the Vatican on a diplomatic mission to Lithuania. Since 1937, Father McGarrigle has taught philosophy at Seattle University. Besides his teaching duties, he writes scholarly articles on philosophy and theology which are published regularly in professional magazines. In 1944, Father published a book called “My Father’s Will’’ which is considered a classic treatment of its subject. In use for the first time at the beginning of winter quarter was a newly-revised version of Seattle University’s official seal. The Rev. Harold O. Small, with the Rev. Vincent M. Conway, worked many months to reconstruct the lower half of the new seal while striving to maintain the spirit of the old. The traditional devices of the House of Loyola, comprising the upper half of the seal, have been retained. In the lower center of the revised seal is an evergreen tree, suggesting the great Northwest. The tree, as a recognized sign of Christ, of man, and of knowledge, signifies the aim of Seattle University: “To develop the full Christian man.” At lower left, the crescent represents the Immaculate Conception, under whose patronage the school was established. Included in this symbolism is the fact that the Church of the Immaculate Conception was for years located in what is now the Science Building. Representing Chief Seattle and the development of the Northwest is the tepee on the lower right of the seal. Thus, the revised seal symbolizes, in beautiful and correct heraldic manner, the country, the Society, the aim, and the location of a great Christian educational center- -Seattle University. laMe (faitwtA, President's Message (Foreword)..........................................3 Dedication..............................................................4 Faculty.................................................................8 Administration.....................................................10 Deans of Schools...................................................12 Faculty............................................................13 ROTC Faculty.......................................................19 Graduates..............................................................21 Gasses.................................................................47 Juniors............................................................48 Sophomores.........................................................54 Freshmen...........................................................60 Organizations..........................................................69 Student Government.................................................70 Sodality...........................................................76 Communications.....................................................78 Service Organizations, Honorarics and Clubs........................82 Activities............................................................114 Homecoming........................................................132 Sports................................................................136 Finis.................................................................160 « “The ... time is quiet, when one considers, first, for what man is born—namely, to praise God our Lord and save his soul — and desiring this chooses as means a life or state within the limits of the Church, in order that he may be helped in the service of his Lord and the salvation of his soul.” The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola Very Reverend Albert A.

A Phi 0 ‘‘Chieftains” identify themselves before Julius Caesar. “Sport, rightly understood, is an occupation of the whole man and, while perfecting the body, it also makes the mind a more refined instrument for the search and communication of truth.” Pope Pius XII Athletic Staff Rev. Robert Rebhahn, S.J. Director of Athletics Varsity Golf Coach Rev. John J. Kelley, S.J. Chairman, Faculty Athletic Board Rev. Edward J. Flajole, S.J. Member, Faculty Athletic Board Capt. Marvin Fletcher Tennis Coach H. Albert Brightman Basketball, Baseball Coach Andy Berg Baseball Manager Eddie O'Brien Frosh Basketball Coach Success in athletics at Seattle U. has been coupled with an insistence that sports be kept subordinate to the academic welfare of the students and the school. Holding the traditional concept that moderate participation in athletics makes a contribution to intellectual life, Seattle University believes that the sportsmanship, discipline and spirit involved in team play are valuable lessons for all students. In recognition of this fact the University maintains a well-regulated program of intercollegiate and intramural athletics available to both men and women students. Its record in varsity basketball and baseball competition has established SU as one of the top independent competitors in the country. Each year the Chieftains meet top teams from all parts of the U.S. in these sports. Other school sports are golf and tennis. Also encouraged are bowling, sailing, and skiing.
