REFERENCE MATERIAL NOT TO BE REMOVED FROM LIBRARY c Butler Street Court Street The World has cycles in its course, when all That once has heen, is acted o’er again . . CARDINAL NEWMAN Remsen Street s Tk enior cl ass Presents... ST. FRANCIS COLLEGE Brooklyn, New York • 1961 Fore wor THE CYCLE OF LIFE is a never-ending cycle. Man is born, he learns and develops, he reproduces in his children the image of himself and his God. When he grows old and the cycle of his earthly life is spent, he dies . . . only to rise phoenix-like from his ashes to begin the new and final cycle of eternal life. In the cycle of life and of all existence there is no begin¬ ning but in God and no real resolution but in eternity. The seasons, the years, the ages roll on, and all death is but a rebirth. On the cover of the Franciscan appears the seal of St. Francis College of Brooklyn ... it is circular, and a fitting symbol for the cycles of St. Francis College. For over one hundred years, St. Francis College and the Franciscan Brothers have been part of the great cycle of life as it is manifest in the education of Catholic youth. Each school year for St. Francis, with the arrival of the new Freshman class and the graduation of the Seniors, forms a cycle of its own. So does the scholastic career of the individual student, as he passes through his four years of Franciscan education and progresses to the next in the series of cycles that comprise his life. One day his sons may return to become a part of the St. Francis cycle and begin his share in it anew. The 1961 Franciscan was conceived and executed as a lasting remembrance for the graduating Seniors, be¬ cause in a true sense they are both the end and the begin¬ ning of the cycle of life at St. Francis College. THE 1961 WILLIAM J. WALSH Editor-in-Chief FRANK AVENOSO RICHARD FLYNN Associate Editors Saint Francis College Brooklyn New York on Brother Alexander, O.S.F. THE CLASS OF 1961 has reached the fullness of its cycle here and moves on to the next. But another cycle which began with ours will con¬ tinue long after we have gone and will renew itself with each new class. Brother Alexander, O.S.F., became Registrar four years ago. Since then he has shown the true spirit of Franciscanism in all his dealings with the students. He has shown that a Franciscan Brother, dedicated to God and his fellow man, can fulfill a difficult and tedious job with effi¬ ciency, patience and understanding. For his friendship and his guidance, for his labors for us and for all those who will follow us, in whatever capacity he may serve, we respectfully dedicate all the work, all the time, and all the satisfaction that are embodied in the 1961 Franciscan to Brother Alexander, O.S.F. “THEOLOGY 301-2 IS DEFINITELY CLOSED!” . . . Serving in his capacity as Registrar, Brother Alexander expounds upon a well-known cliche of the registration cycle to a questioning Ronald Cianici. TRYING MOMENTS such as this are not excluded from the duties of the Registrar. Brother Alexander checks over the spring term registration schedule. Intricate schedules, long hours and information-seeking students made a night’s sleep much appreciated. 4 : : - s : : ; : V ’ V V V V I : : : Message EXPRESSION COUNTS . . . Brother Urban realizes this while speaking to the Seniors in the Lounge. Brother ' s wisdom, foresight and loyalty are truly evident in his very apropos message below. Dear Graduates: SINCERE CONGRATULATIONS to each of you on the success of the 1961 Franciscan. In selecting the theme The Cycle of Education at St. Francis College and having it permeate your yearbook, you have wrestled with a concept that has intrigued serious minds for centuries. IT WAS THE CYCLE of the inundation of the Nile River that offered the Egyptians the basis of a primitive calendar. Confucius speculated on the phenom¬ enon of the cycle of life. The regularity of the weather cycle inspired the first tillers of the soil. IN CHAPTER 8, verses 4 to 16, St. Luke illustrates how Jesus used the clear and well understood cycle of farming as the basis for one of His most beautiful parables—“The Sower of the Seed”, but the Divine Teacher notes that certain factors may interfere with the anticipated results. RESPECTFULLY, to paraphrase the Gospel, the faculty are the sowers of the seeds of knowledge. As in the parable, it happens that some seed falls by the wayside, some falls among the rocks, some among thorns and some on good ground. THE YOUNG MEN who were your classmates as undergraduates and are not your graduating companions may be represented as belonging to one of the first three groups. But even among you graduates, unfortunately, there may be a few in whom the seed of learning will not develop to its full potential. MEDITATING on the possibilities that Ch rist cites in the Holy Gospel, we can conceive that in some of you the seed of knowledge may not develop fully because it will be devoured by the birds of materialism; some others may be choked by the thorns of modern skepticism and cynicism; some may fail because of lack of the moisture of sustained spiritual, educational and intellectual development. IT IS THE FERVENT PRAYER of the sowers of the seeds of Franciscan Education, the Brothers and the lay faculty, that none of these unfortunate consequences will befall any of the class of 1961. MAY GOD GRANT His blessings to each of you and may the seed of knowl¬ edge grow to full fruition that you may live well in this world and participate in the beatitude of Heaven for all eternity. 5 Sincerely yours, Brother Urban, O.S.F. President Contents GRADUATES page 8 ADMINISTRATION FACULTY page 56 UNDERGRADUATES page 80 ACTIVITIES page 92 GRADUATES THE CYCLE OF THEIR COLLEGE YEARS COMPLETE, the graduating seniors on the following pages now move into the world to take their places as Catholic men in the wider and more extended cycle of adult life. Some may achieve fame, rise to high positions, amass great wealth or knowledge. Others . . . the majority, perhaps . . . will be contented to complete their earthly cycles as re¬ spected citizens of their communities, moderately successful businessmen, devoted husbands and the proud fathers of the fine Catholic families of the future. But one thing is certain. Wherever they go and whatever they do, these men will bear with them always the indelible imprint of their four year cycle at St. Francis College. They will be St. Francis graduates not only when they receive their diplomas, but for the rest of their lives. Under each portrait there is a capsule record of the Senior’s college career- awards, athletics, activities. But no such brief resume can ever present a clear picture of a college education. Whether or not the graduate has learned and absorbed, grown and developed here is something that will not be known until the final cycle is complete and the final judgment passed. No one can foresee the future. All that can be said is that the cycle of Franciscan education has laid the groundwork on which each must build for the larger and greater cycle of life itself. For the graduate, the die is cast. Everything the finest Catholic educa¬ tion could do for him has already been done. The rest is up to him. The future is his to do with it what he will. AS THE CYCLE NEARS ITS END, a group of graduating Seniors discusses plans for the Prom in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge. |W f r ii vifiEWi ' w ■ A JjL ml JOHN JOSEPH ADAMS B.B.A., Business Management St. Francis Preparatory Marketing Conference Delegate 3; Business Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Loyalty Fund Steward 3; Voice 4; Intramurals 1, 2, 3, 4; Gaelic Society 3, 4; Weightlifting Club 3, 4; Franciscan Senior Editor 4. THE LIFE OF THE SENIOR was a composite of many different sights, thoughts, problems, pressures and emo¬ tions. As he drew to the end of his cycle he looked forward towards the panorama of his life before him and backward on his college years. He feared the tests and the examinations for graduate school, but he let off steam at the dances and parties. He took more relish in cheering his teams on to victory because he knew if he ever came b ack it wouldn ' t be quite the same. He looked around and saw growing up under his very eyes a new St. Francis College—a bigger and better St. Francis than he had ever imagined when he first turned off Court and down Butler Street. In the last few weeks he experienced a strange feeling of nostalgia, but he didn ' t have time to think about it much. There was the Prom, there was Senior Week and finally—maybe he once thought it would never come—there was graduation. So he took his diploma and went out into the world. And when he did, the Juniors of this year became the Seniors of next. The Freshmen turned off Court and down Butler Street. And the cycles rolled on.

These men, the core of St. Francis College, participate in one capacity 7 or another in all the many cycles that combine to produce a Franciscan education. Each has his own cycle of students, classes, tests, examinations; each is the center of the cycle of learning his students go through in his classes. Each is a part of the cycle of his office or department, of his division, of the curriculum as a whole. Each participates in the cycles of the clubs he moderates, the facilities he supervises, the services he dispenses, the activities he supports. Finally, each is a segment, a portion of the arc that the student traverses toward the culmination of the full cycle in his graduation. The departing Senior can never ex¬ press, perhaps never even fully com¬ prehend, the debt of gratitude he owes the faculty and administration. For all of his days, all that he says, does or thinks, all that he acquires or accomplishes ... in short, the sum total of the cycle of life before him . . . will be influenced and tempered by these men. What he has taken from them he has made a part of himself. But what they have given they have not lost. This is the peculiar virtue of the educator ... in the very giving of knowledge he increases his capacity to give. And as each new class passes through the cycles of St. Francis and moves on, the educator shares in the personal fulfillment of every individ¬ ual Franciscan man he has helped to mold. Our clumsy words of thanks can never match the satisfaction these men will derive from knowing the gift they have given us . . . our education . . . will bear fruit. Our success and sal¬ vation is their greatest reward and the only reward they ask. We cannot hope to voice the praise that will be theirs from the lips of God if we prove their jobs well done.

Bishop of Brooklyn IF THE CHAIRMANSHIP of the Board of Trustees were a four year tenure as is the undegraduate college career, Bis¬ hop McEntegart would be considered a Senior. Consecrated Bishop of Brook¬ lyn Diocese in April 1957, he was elected to the Board the following Fall when this year’s graduates were Freshmen. During these four years, the Board, under the Bishop’s guidance, has ap¬ proved the greatest major expansion program in the college’s history. A new era is opening, a new cycle beginning. POSING INFORMALLY in the Moran Court are Jack Drum, Louis Mione, Bishop McEntegart, Brother Urban, Joe Ryan and Pat Sullivan. A Routel photog¬ rapher got the group together just after the Faculty Workshop early in September. 59 i ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY BROTHER URBAN, O.S.F., Ph.D. President EXECUTIVE EFFICIENCY during the year made for a smooth-flowing cycle. Brother Urban informally discusses plans for the highly successful Loyalty Drive with Brother Angelo (1.). BROTHER HENRY, O.S.F., Ph.D. Dean COOD NEWS. In his office Brother Henry flashes a bright smile when he learns of a basketball victory. In his dealings with students throughout the year, Brother combined strictness with justice, a truly difficult and laudable combination to achieve. 60 “MR. ST. FRANCIS” ... A symbol of Franciscan tradition, knowledge, warmth and love is Reverend Brother Columba. The title President Emeritus is one of honor and respect, and no man at St. Francis deserves it more. Here the camera catches Brother Columba in a party mood at Father Fleming’s farewell dinner. THE PERSON in charge of Personnel is Brother Philip, O.S.F. A dynamic and industrious worker, Brother Philip, in the last five years, has built the Student Per¬ sonnel Service to one of the best college bureaus of its kind in the country. Now, in his capacity as Executive Vice-President in Charge of Development, he enters a new and highly important cycle of endeavor. 61 ADMINISTRATION, Continued BROTHER ROGER, O.S.F., Ph.D. Treasurer EVIDENTLY PLEASED by the basketball team’s showing against Providence, Brother Roger flashes his well-known grin. As Treasurer, it is his difficult task to keep track of all monies received and spent by St. Francis in all its departments and operations. BROTHER ALEXANDER, O.S.F., B.S. Registrar “BROTHER ALEXANDER SPEAKING” . . . Brother answers one of the many calls from inquiring students. The multitude of phone calls often become annoying, but the presence of the handy black object on his neat desk made Brother’s job a bit easier. 62 PAUL DOLAN, M.A. Director of Admissions JOSEPH CASTRONOVO, M.B.A. Director of Evening Sessions SPOKESMAN FOR ST. FRANCIS and a former student himself, it is Mr. Drum’s responsibility to keep before the public eye the many strides being made by St. Francis in its Development program. NIGHT WORKER Mr. Joseph Castronovo goes over a list of evening students who are appliying for degree. Mr. Castronovo was always available to evening men for advice and private counsel. JOHN F. DRUM, B.A. Director of Public Relations 63 ADMINISTRATION, Continued EDWARD J. QUIGLEY, M.S. Director of Publicity A FINAL CHECK is necessary before Ed Quigley and Jim O’Connor, President of the Press Club, can send this copy to the metropolitan newspapers. This year, Mr. Quigley published the alumni newspaper, the Terrier , regularly and kept former students informed of their Alma Mater’s strides in education. “GENTLY, FRIEND, GENTLY . . Not above physical labor, Brother Angelo, with the aid of an unseen worker, sets up the Loyalty Fund payment booth in the Lounge. Two sheets of plywood, some two-by-fours, nails, brown stain and a little patience made a very practical booth ready for students’ use by mid-October. Personnel NATHANIEL J. PALLONE, M.A. Educational Consultation Center GEORGE LOUGHRAN, M.S. Guidance Counselor REV. EDWARD SALERNO, O.F.M. Chaplain MR. GEORGE LOUGHRAN, left, confers with Brother Philip concerning the developmental reading program for freshmen. The Guidance Center provides assist¬ ance to students who wish to improve their reading ability through developmental classes. JOSEPH VALENTINO, B.S. Director of Placement PATRICK TUFANO, M.S.S. Psychiatric Social Worker MISS ELIZABETH HALLOWELL, Psychometrist and vital member of the Personnel staff, administers and deciphers the testing program. 65 “NO, NO, THAT’S NON-FICTION!” Brother Anthelm’s ready smile and efficient direction helped the students master the intricacies of the Dewey Decimal System. The constant expansion of library facilities kept St. Francis’ favorite bibliophile more than busy, but he still found time to co-moderate the Troupers with Brother Giles. BROTHER ANTHELM O.S.F., M.L.S. L ibrarian ROBERT SCHWABACHER, M.L.S Assistant Librarian BROTHER DANIEL, O.S.F. Assistant in Library BROTHER JOSEPH O.S.F., B.S. Assistant in Library IN THE FOUR YEARS since Brother Anthelm began his tenure as Librarian at St. Francis College, the Seniors who began their scholastic careers when he assumed this position have seen the Li¬ brary double in size, staff and number of books. The entire second floor, save the Chemistry lab, is the site of a multi¬ thousand volume Library, staffed by seven faculty members, four faculty advisers and over five student assistants. We have seen a similarity in thought of dedication in the last two cycles. Franciscan 1956 , closing the last cycle, was dedicated to the late Brother Celestine; last year, the Library was renamed in his memory. MISS EVELYN CUFF was a friend in need to stu¬ dents in the periodical room. This Assistant Librarian had her hands full helping young scholars compile background and research materials for the perennial and inevitable term papers. 60 PUTTING HIS POINT ACROSS ... As Director of Student Activities, Mr. McGin- niss spoke both formally and informally to many students. The camera catches him as he emphasizes a strong need for organization to a group of Freshmen. An interesting speaker and an industrious worker, Mr. McGinniss efficiently performed the multitude of tasks delegated to his office. JAMES E. McGINNISS, LL.M. Director of Student Activities BEGINNING A NEW SERIES of cycles this year as Director of Student Activities, Mr. James E. McGinniss had the difficult task of reorganizing the functions of his office to cope with the expanding cycle of activities. In his thirteenth year as Director of Athletics, Mr. Dan Lynch, coach of the Terrier basket¬ ball squads, must plan and execute the varied athletic program of St. Francis. With the addition of Mr. Peter Fazio to assist in his work, Mr. Lynch saw to it that the sports cycle for the year functioned smoothly and well. DANIEL J. LYNCH, M.A. Director of Athletics LEANING ON THE FACTS . . . Dan Lynch takes a moment out to view the St. John’s game rally from the rear of the lounge. Quoted as “Affable Dan Lynch” in the Voice , Mr. Lynch has passed through many cycles in his years at St. Francis. A competent teacher and a winning basketball coach, “Dan” effectively combined all of his assets in his role as Athletic Director. Business Administration CHARLES L. SAVAGE J.S.D., C.P.A.

Assistant Professor of Business; recipient of LL.B. from Brooklyn Law School. THE BUSINESS WORLD, the world of management, economics and finance, has its cycles too. The division of Busi¬ ness Administration, by a constructive program which couples a firm founda¬ tion in practical knowledge with the solid background of Liberal Arts neces¬ sary for the imaginative application of this knowledge, prepares the St. Francis student to function and succeed in the cycles of business. The division has made a significant stride toward the achievement of its goals by the recent inauguration of an internship program that provides excellent practical experi¬ ence in accounting and acquaints the business student with the career for which his college training has so thor¬ oughly prepared him.

The heart of any college stressing the Liberal Arts, the inner cycle of its curriculum around which the other educa¬ tional cycles revolve, is its Humanities Division. At St. Francis, the student is taught first to THINK and then to KNOW. The thought must come first . . . and the student develops the capacity of his God-given intellect for thought by t he study of the greatest ideas of man as revealed in his language, literature and art.

Mathematics is a constant search for the eternal laws which control the tangible universe, while natural science probes these laws as they manifest in all the levels of being. A balance of theory and research under the tutelage of an eminently competent faculty prepares the St. Francis student to discern the static rules which guide the eternal cycles of the spheres. DR. JOHN BURKE, CHAIRMAN of the Science Department, was a stern task¬ master in the laboratories, but showed this bright side in his informal con¬ ferences with budding chemists and biologists.

THE PHILOSOPHY DEPARTMENT, the Division of Philosophy, Psychology and Theology, finds its goals coinciding in many respects with those of the Humanities Division. But the distinction is an important one. While Human¬ ities teach the student to think, the Philosophy Department must instill in him the moral and religious principles that will guide him to think PROP¬ ERLY . The student must learn to reach conclusions, but it is the responsibility of St. Francis College to do all in its power to insure that the conclusions reached in the cycle of thought are conclusions proper to a Franciscan Catholic man.

WITH FINALITY Brother Henry renders a judgment concerning all History and Sociology students. As chairman of the Social Science Division, Brother with his associates covered a range from “the causes of the Pelopponesian war”, to “the construction of a tourniquet.” SOCIAL SCIENCE IS THE STUDY OF MAN in his relation to his fellow man. Society moves in cycles in all its institutions—religious, political, social and econom¬ ic—and the conscientious study of the Social Sciences gears the student to evaluate the interaction of all the elements that compose the collective life of man. An experienced and progressive faculty assists the St Francis student as he delves into the history and makeup and ponders the problems of the social cycle. PONDERING THE PROBLEM of slums in the New York City area, Dr. Clement’s contacts with many social agencies made him an expert on such topics. 79 THE TERM “STUDENT BODY” is a phrase aptly coined. Just as the faculty might be likened to the heart of St. Francis College, and the Ad¬ ministration to the head, so the stu¬ dents embody the corporate entity of their school. But the student body is not a static physical thing. Its indi¬ vidual components are in a constant state of cyclical flux. The motion of the St. Francis cycle is initiated from within the student body as each young man progresses in knowledge and accreditation until such time as his annual cycle is complete and he too moves on to the next scholastic year. The undergraduate years are primarily a cycle of transformation. The ideal goal is the metamorphosis of the student, who enters St. Francis as an impressionable teenager and emerges after four years of Franciscan training as an educated young adult. It is to this end that all .the endeavors of St. Francis College are pointed . . . the successful fulfillment of one cycle and the inception of the next. The discerning reader, in surveying the undergraduate section of the 1961 Franciscan , will note the concrete evidence of this cycle of transform¬ ation in the development of the St. Francis student from his Freshman to his Junior year. The accomplishments and the character of each class and the individuals who comprise it reveal themselves in an obvious pattern of intellectual growth and spiritual de¬ velopment. Each year builds upon the last while looking forward to the next. When each of the four years has been traversed and all its lessons learned, the undergraduate cycle cul¬ minates in the graduate, and looks to the future for the verification of the Franciscan ideal of education. THE CYCLE OF THE SEASONS brings wann breezes to St. Francis College as these undergraduates gather on the benches of the Father Moran Court in the Spring of their academic cycle. Junior Class Members Have Favorable Year AVENOSO BY ACCLAMATION! Class member, Frank Avenoso, rear center, was named Editor-in-Chief of Franciscan 1962 by acclamation of the Junior Class. Frank’s triumph caps a year’s experience as Associate Editor of the annual. AS THE SENIORS DEPART, these Juniors prepare to move forward into their final annual cycle. They have weathered the trials and tribulations of the Freshman year and the difficult chores of the Sophomore. Now, as they enter their fourth and last scholastic year, they face the problems and projects that are peculiar to the Senior. The time is not long distant when their portraits will appear in the first section of the 1962 Franciscan, which will record their story more fully. But yet to be conquered is the last obstacle between them and their diplomas. The Junior year was difficult; the Senior year will be more so. The curriculum is judiciously plotted so that the work required of the student increases apace with his ability to perform it. By now, these men have indicated that they have the necessary qualities of intellect, character and ambition to bring their four-year cycle full turn. But until the last test is taken and the last book closed, they must continue to work and strive toward their goal.

Students arranged and ran the entire dance themselves. IN THE COURSE OF A CIRCLE, the point farthest from the beginning and farthest from the end is the midway point in the arc. While a circle is not a cycle because a cycle is born anew, still the analogy fits the Sophomore class too well to be discarded. Halfway through their four-year cycle at St. Francis, they have completed two inner annual cycles and have reached what navigators call ‘‘the point of no return.” For the Sophomores this has a special meaning. They have absorbed one half of a Franciscan education. This is theirs forever. But the next part of the arc is more important because without fullness this arc becomes an arbitrary and meaningless line. Because a cycle is not a circle they will never completely close the arc; the closing of one is the opening of the next. But because a cycle is like a circle they will find themselves doing many of the things in the next two years that they have done in the last two. The difference will lie in their constant growth in knowledge and the subsequent change in their perspective as they repeat the yearly pattern until the cycle closes to open once more.

Frank Avenoso wields the broom while Jim Hudson offers mild moral support. THE CYCLES OF ST. FRANCIS are not static . . . they are constantly in motion. In the photo¬ graphs on these pages, we have attempted to capture this motion as it flows throughout the year in the classrooms, the lounge, the entire campus. Here are our cycles in action. Next year and every year, the same cycles will be acted out. Only the faces will change. A BRIEF RESPITE from Phi Rho Pi doging finds Gene Feldhaus, as Cauliflower McPugg, reviewing notes in the yard for a short class quiz. THE WHITEST WINTER in many a year has Tony Miller, Richie Dreyer and Hank O’Lee treading their nimble way between puddles and snowbanks on their way to a morning class. Three big snowstorms blank¬ eted the city and played havoc with class schedules.

The Seniors have a closed retreat, usually between semesters. A GOOD HOOK . . . Hook shots, jump shots, pasing and rebound- ing—all are seen in the highly popular “3-man games” on campus. Between classes and during lunch hours, students remove ties and jackets to “choose up sides.” Some might just as well remove their 91 shirts, no? I I ! ACTIVITIES collective inner cycle of Franciscan education entrusted primarily to the students themselves. The Director of Student Activities and the individual moderators guide and counsel the plans and projects of each activity, but the main burden of work and credit for accomplishment falls to the student. Each activity functions for specific purposes and toward specific goals. While the particular purpose of each organization is peculiar to itself, still the ultimate objective of each and all is the practice of Franciscan prin¬ ciples and the incorporation of these principles into the life of the student. The Franciscan cycle of education consists in more than the merely in¬ tellectual pursuits, and it is in the field of activities that the student grows and matures socially as well as mentally. The activity cycle is planned so that each organization is allotted specific dates on which it is entitled to the use of school facilities for its own purposes, and these dates are compiled at the beginning of the school year in the Activities Calendar. Within the several activities cycles are also at work, as members progress from mere passive membership to positions of responsibility, prominence and eventually leadership. For those who seek to extend and enlarge class¬ room interests, there are organizations designed to coincide with the studies of each field of scholastic endeavor. And for those who wish to expand the scope of their knowledge, there are organizations which delve into areas not encompassed by the cur¬ riculum. By judicious selection of and participation in those activities best suited to his own capacities and as¬ pirations, the student takes an active part in determining the pattern and progress of his own educational cycle. THE ACTIVITY CYCLE was accelerated in this election year. Here Senator Barry Goldwater discusses national politics with campus leaders. B i L ij IN THE LINE OF DUTY, student group leaders stand behind their Freshman charges at the Mass of the Holy Ghost in September at St. Paul’s. The largest Freshman class in St. Francis’ history kept the group leaders busy helping them adjust to the college routine. From the left, Messrs. McCormick, Walker, Hennessy, Jewell and Reilly. Joseph Coppotelli Student Group Lead ,ers William Andersen THE OPENING OF A CYCLE is one of its most important phases. The direction the arc takes as it begins its curve determines the direction and ultimate success of the entire cycle. This is why the service that the Student Group Leaders perform is so essential. The Freshmen they guide, counsel and encourage are embarking on their first cycle; their course must be set firm and true. For this reason, Student Group Leaders are selected for the qualities of maturity and leadership they have demonstrated in their own scholastic careers. The men you see on these pages will appear again and again in the 1961 Franciscan , in their .capacities as leaders in sports, studies and extracurricular activities.

IN A RARE APPEARANCE before the Student Council, Brother Urban explains the plans and progress of the Expansion Program. The Council in¬ vited the President to this meeting to clarify the goals for St. Francis in the years to come. John McCormick Vice President HOLDING THE REINS of student government was the prime responsibility of the Student Council President, Joe Walker. The gist of this informal executive address is recorded by Council Secretary Dan Noonan. THE STUDENT COUNCIL is the voice of the students and the prime organ of communication between the student body and the Administration. Each year its members are elected by the clubs and classes of the school to represent them in the cycle of student government. Repre¬ sentatives are elected for their qualities of character, intelligence and plain common sense. The Student Council organizes and reg¬ ulates the activities of the student body as a whole, such as the St. Patrick ' s Day Parade, the Blood Drive and the Stag Dances held on Sundays in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge. It supervises all class and school elections and keeps the students informed about the social functions in the Metropolitan Area. It compiles the Activ¬ ities Calendar, assigning specific dates to the various organizations. It appoints committees to elect deserving students for the Franciscan Spirit and Who ' s Who awards and approves the nominations of these committees. It relays important an¬ nouncements from the upper echelons of the Administration to the students. In short, it is the cycle of the Student Coun¬ cil that knits the individual students and organizations into a cohesive and active student unit. And in the training it offers in the cycle of parliamentary procedure, it prepares its members for life in the business world. Richard Flynn Parliamentarian Joseph Walker President Daniel Noonan Secretary STUDENT COUNCIL. Continued INFORMAL DISCUSSION was one of the Council’s tools in building a strong policy. Bill Spencer smiles as Frank Macchiarola tries to influence John Scott. Connie Reitz is lost in thought. In the background, Dick Weston listens in while Jim Mannix and Mark Thomas confer on another issue. COMMITTEE WORK found new Council members deeply involved this year. Lou Mione, Franciscan representative, was active in committee work. VICE PRESIDENT John McCormick catches a few minutes between a late class and the Council meet¬ ing to prepare some new business for presentation. HARD AT WORK preparing the Activities Calendar, Joe Walker fulfills one of his many duties as President of the Student Council. The Calendar enumerates all scholastic, religious and social functions for the school year. Peter Cippoletti Treasurer FOLDING HIS BALLOT, Joe Crowley prepares to vote as Pete Cippoletti reaches for his blank ballot. The Student Council elections, voted by secret ballot, climaxed a short but vigorous campaign between Con Reitz and Frank Mac- chiarola. THE NEW FRATERNITY, Omega Delta Chi, was one of the key issues to face the Student Council. Here Harry Kranepool, Frank Fallon and Jim Nlannix look over the constitution of the new organization. THE LOOK OF ACCORD concerning the necessity of a blood drive stems from the Thanksgiving meeting’s minutes, as read to Joe Walker and George Boberg after adjournment. MANY DISCUSSIONS concerning student interest in the Council and activities this year highlighted bull sessions during Council meeting “breaks.” Parliamentarian Dick Flynn explains the problems encountered in presenting a Trouper play to George Boberg (seated). EXPLAINING PROCEDURE to Frosh representatives Morton and Rische, Dick Weston perpares fellow reps for the first meeting of the year. IN HIS DUAL ROLE as Director of Student Activities and Mod- erator of the Student Council, Mr. James McGinnis addresses the group to clarify its interpretation of the administrative policy, r MOUNTAINS OF PAPER WORK are all part of the job for the Student Council President. Here, Joe Walker enlists the aid of Joe Ponessa to get out the day’s mail. MOMENT OF CONTEMPLATION finds President Walker studying the activities calendar in search of possible openings for late club applicants. The most difficult student position, the Presidency of the Student Council is a full-time job, but must be relegated to second position behind studies. 100 STUDENT COUNCIL, Continued TAKING A BREAK in the course of a meeting gives these Council members a chance to discuss their viewpoints informally before going back to parliamentary procedure. Frank Ferguson and Pete Cippoletti listen to Dan Noonan while Carmine Allocco makes his point with Lou Mione and Richie Hennessey.

John Ward (left) and Dick often jQl checked to see if the announcements for the student activities’ week were current. THE COUNCIL TRIES to act as a liaison unit between the student body and the Administration. In this typical scene Harry Kranepool, Jim Mannix, Bill Walsh, Frank Ferguson and Bill Spencer weigh the problem at hand. “I THINK THIS MEASURE concerning the installment plan for the Loyalty Fund is what we need,” says Frank Macchiarola (center) to Bill Spencer (left) and George Boberg. “GENTLEMEN, GENTLEMEN . . . PLEASE!” Frank Macchiarola takes a little good-natured ribbing from Who’s Who members Bill Walsh and Tim Courtney. Every year, St. Francis puts its best face forward in this “blue book” of American college students. Who’s Who Amon Students in American Colleges and Universities IN THE CYCLE of yearly awards, the selection of a student for inclusion in the annual issue of Who’s Who Among Students in American Uni¬ versities and Colleges is a singular honor. This year, nineteen Franciscan students have merited this distinction. Selections were made on the basis of scholarship, participation and leadership in academic and extracurricular activities, cit¬ izenship, service to the school and promise of future achievements. TWO LEADERS SOCIALIZE ... Joe Walker and Frank Ferguson, both good friends, Pi Alpha men and Who’s Who Award winners, enjoy conversation -and cocktails at Father Fleming’s party in the Lounge.

It is as much a part of his education as the technical training he re-| ceives in his particular field of concentration. But spirit is by definition an amorphous and intangible element. While admittedly difficult to isolate, Franciscan Spirit is readily discernible in aciton; it is observable in its application if not in its essence. By their attitude, behavior and accomplishments, by their leadership, cooperation and industry, these men have proven that they possess the extra measure of devotion that qualifies a student for this award. The Franciscan Spirit that they exemplify must be pres¬ ent in each and every cycle of St. Francis. Without it, our plans are doomed to failure and our work has been for naught. Without it, the cycles would cease to exist. TIMOTHY COURTNEY GEORGE BOBERG THOMAS CURLEY JAMES CROSBY TAKING THE TALLY of the Junior elections, Bill Walsh writes down the list of candidates while Dick Flynn prepares to transfer them to the blackboard.

JOSEPH LYNCH ARTHUR BEYER MICHAEL HENNING ON HIS WAY to work, Bill McCormick pauses on the stairs to congrat¬ ulate new member Mike Henning on his election to the Duns Scotus Honor Society. Each member must have at least a “B” average. THE APOGEE of the intellectual cycle, the paramount student achievement at St. Francis College—this is the meaning of election to the Duns Scotus Honor Society. High standards of selectivity limit those named to the organization so that the primary significance of the dis¬ tinction is not compromised. Intellectual prowess and extracurricular participation are prime requisites for applicants, but the Student- Faculty Committee searches for something more —that certain, elusive, intangible quality that illuminates a collegiate cycle. There are five gold plates under “1961” in the main hall. 107 FRANCIS MACCHIAROLA Omicron Chi Epsilon William Kambach TWO CYCLES have been completed since the inception of the Iota Chapter of Omicron Chi Epsilon on this campus. The Economics Honor Fraternity has held fast to its stringent qualifi¬ cations of a 3.00 cumulative index and a 12 semester hours minimum in Economics with a B average. Interest in Economics is the motivation behind this organization; the assistance of promising young students and the recognition of students with high scholastic achievement are the im¬ mediate aims. The means to the end are dis¬ cussion groups, guest lecturers, student reports and active attendance at the fraternity’s annual national convention. FOUR MEMBERS are amused during an activity planning conference in the Student Lounge. Guest speakers from the business world explained the continuing cycles of buying trends in the economic set-up of the country. Members include (1. to r.) Vincent Tizio, Bill Kambach, Bob Franceschini and Dominic Molignano. Donald Pabst Vincent Tizio THE PRESIDENT of Omicron Chi Epsilon, Bill Kambach, addresses the member¬ ship at an informal meeting early in the year. The national honor fraternity has been at St. Francis for two years. Troupers EACH PLAY IS A CYCLE from the casting to the per¬ formance; a man ' s education in the theatre is a never- ending cycle. These are the two things the Troupers are concerned with. In order to build up new talent, the organization did not do major productions this year. Rather, they did workshop plays. This afforded the opportunity to see many new people on stage and to present the unusual or experimental to St. Francis College play-goers. Works by Oscar Wilde and Eugene O ' Neill, among others, highlighted this season ' s theatrical cycle of Trouper activity. DIRECTOR AND MODERATOR of the Troupers, Brother Giles’ versatility is attested by a mention of some authors whose works he directed: Eugene O’Neill and George S. Kauf¬ man, Philip Barry and William Inge, Oscar Wilde and Terrence Rattigan. BUILDING STAR MATERIAL has been Dick Flynn’s task as President. By doing only workshops this year, the Troupers brought twenty new actors before an au¬ dience. “When doing a major production,” Dick said, “workshop experience is invaluable to both director and actor.” YEARS OF EXPERIENCE as Light¬ ing Director mark Angelo Gatto’s Trouper biography. This year, he served as Secretary-Treasurer. Angelo trained lighting crews for South Pa¬ cific , Bus Stop , and Hotel Universe during the past four years. AS PRODUCTION COORDINATOR for the past five years, Brother Anthelm’s duties have ranged from tailoring to painting to emergency stagehand. “His assistance to the organization,” the members avow “has been invaluable.” NEW PROJECTS, NEW IDEAS . . . these are the meat of the work¬ shop. Four plays were presented; one of them, Eugene O’Neill’s Hughie , went “on the road” to other colleges. Here, Brother Giles and Dick Flynn discuss the lie benefit performance for the Formosan University Fund. 109 CLASS-BREAK SNACKS were dispensed by machines in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge. Here Mike Jewell (left) and Tom Sadler admire the effi¬ ciency of the coffee machine. THE STUDENT ACTIVITIES OFFICE housed the offices of the Student Council, the newspaper and the yearbook. All worked harmoniously to keep activities functioning smoothly while respecting the privacy of the other offices. WELL-INFORMED STUDENTS are chosen for the positions of leadership in the student government and publications. The Student Council President jV must speak for the entire student body; the VOICE Editor must be on the r alert for information of interest to the students; the Franciscan Editor must keep his eyes open for good yearbook photographs throughout the year. 110 THE SWEETHEART CONTEST was revived this year by the VOICE. This entrant was eliminated in the final judging. Business Club THE OFFICERS of the Business Club are (1st Row) Dominic Molignano, and Vincent Tizio; (Back Row) Bernard Morgan, Thomas Hassett and Timothy Courtney. BUSINESS CYCLES, buying trends, price scales, economic stability . . . these are the things the Business Club members are concerned with. They follow their interest through research into the hows and the whys of the New York Stock Exchange, through study of government-published statistics, through lectures by prominent businessmen and through reports on current averages and business publications. While the Business Club was plagued this year by problems of reorganization and mem¬ bership, still the members strove to utilize its possibilities to prepare themselves for their even¬ tual careers in the world of business by familiarizing themselves beforehand with the cycles in which it moves. COURTNEY BRIEFS MEMBERS concerning the officers plans for guest speakers and also gives details of the members trip to the New York Stock Exchange. TYPICAL SOPHOMOR1C HUMOR on the part of Joe Desidue draws reactions ranging from tolerant smiles (Vinny Emilio and John Adams in the first row) to quizzical disgust (Dave Boland on the left end of the last row). PONDERING THE WORTH of President Courtney’s remarks, Brother Cormack and Dominic Molignano wonder if cycle repetition in business is any criterion for positive conclusions. MEMBERS INCLUDE (1st Row) John Adams and Ronald Langell; (2nd Row) Ken Cummings and Vincent Chianese; (3rd Row) Gene Celia, Mike Gagliardi and John Aversa: (4th Row) Bill Callaghan, Joe Harte and Jim Hudson. Although the club has a large membership, cancellation and previous commitments by speakers has kept activity at a minimum. The Voice UNANIMOUS ELECTION by the Junior Class last year made Dick Flynn Editor-in- Chief of The Voice for 1960-1961. He immediately advertised widely for writers and staffmen for the paper and, although plagued by difficulties lasting over two months, he published at least one issue per month as prescribed by The Cord. A LIVELY INTERPRETATION of the news is one of the main virtues of Editor Flynn’s administration at the helm of The Voice. Memorable editorials drove many pertinent points home to the student body and Administration alike. Dick also revived the Miss Sweetheart of St. Francis Contest after a years absence. PROOFREADING AND FINAL PREPARATION for the printer are two important processes in the editing of a paper. News Editor Bill Walsh is revising a news special on the I.R.C. lecture by Roy Cohn; the Student Council Corner by John Lehner became a regular news feature on Bill’s pages this year. CLARIFYING A POINT, Mike Henning corrects a box score in Lou Mione’s sports article. Mione’s style brought out the important action in the games. CHECKING A FIRST PROOF, John Lehner and Jim Harte go over copy for corrections before printing at Echo Press, Brooklyn. STUDENT VIEWS ARE NECESSARY in a student paper. Sports Editor Mike Hen¬ ning discusses sports policies with Tom Dimler prior to writing a special sports editorial. Student interest in these editorials made them a regular feature on the sports page. HUMOR, REVIEWS AND PER¬ SONALITIES find their way to John McCormick’s Feature Pages. Different features in each issue provide student interest and varied subjects cover a larger number of readers. John chose George Bo- berg as his Associate Editor for a wider range in the cycle of features this year. The annual cycle of the Voice is made up of many cycles within the monthly cycle of the individual issue. Each of the forty staff members, in the compilation of his story, goes through a cycle rigidly prescribed by the standards of good journalism. Each section—news, Feature, Sports—is prepared and organized by the page Editor and checked for accuracy and style by the Editor- in-Chief. After the moderator has approved all copy, it is taken to the printer where it is set, printed and delivered for distribution to the students and faculty. To widen the scope of its cycles, the Voice this year sent representatives for the first time to the Associated Col¬ legiate Press Convention in Chicago and the Overseas Press Club Convention. In its own cycles, the Voice is the mirror of all the cycles of St. Francis College. NEW ANGLES ON STORIES were discussed fully by Voice staff members during the year. John Lehner and George Boberg plan their pages for a future issue as Ed Fox listens. 113 VOICE, Continued LAYOUT PROBLEMS beset Mike Henning, much to the amusement of Bill Walsh. Joe Coppotelli (standing) is completing his second year as Layout Editor of The Voice. Each issue during the year bore a new layout, different from the preceding one. BY ACCLAMATION AGAIN!! This was the second year in a row that the Junior Class named an Editor-in-Chief by acclamation. George Boberg served as a reporter for a year, then became Associate Feature Editor to John McCormick. He is planning the activity of the next cycle in his extra¬ curricular growth at St. Francis. TWO ASSOCIATE EDITORS . . . John JLehner, Associate News Editor, and George Boberg, Associate Feature Editor assist each other in making headlines and proofreading copy. The two men worked tirelessly in the never-ending Voice cycle. 114 THE VOICE St. Francis College 35 Butler St. EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MODERATOR Dick Flynn Dr. Thomas O ' Brien NEWS EDITOR: Bill Walsh; ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR: John Lehner; STAFF: Sal Ferraioli, Richie Russo, Jim Doyle, Joe Reilly, Connie Reitz, Charlie Hueston, Frank Avenoso, Marty O’Donnell, Jack Derby, Ken Olsen, Jerry Egan, Tom Burke, Frank Martingale, Bill Spencer.

Preplanned layouts with floating nameplates were prepared for each Page Editor by Layout Editor Joe Coppotelli. Joe is a three-year veteran of the Voice. “DO YOU REALLY MEAN THIS?” queries Editor Flynn. Flanked by Sal Ferraioli and Richie Russo, Dick scrutinizes all copy before it goes to the printer. In teaching the essentials of this year ' s writing style, Dick goes over copy with the author so that mistakes are corrected firsthand. JOHN LEHNER, ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR. Active on the Voice News staff in the fall semester and an invaluable aid to the News Editor during the Spring session, John was an easy choice for the above-mentioned position of respon¬ sibility. “NOW, I WONDER WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN RUN¬ NING through his mind?” murmurs John McCormick. Cryp¬ tic phrases in stories are the death of some editors; others simply decode or try to decode until some semblance of an idea is discovered. 115 Franciscan — 1961 FROM LAYOUTS TO EDITOR-IN-CHIEF . . . Bill Walsh was the Layout Editor of Franciscan 1960; critical reviews rated the layouts as excellent. The Junior Class unanimously named Bill Editor-in-Chief of the 1961 Franciscan , trusting him with the complete coordination of their annual, and final, yearbook. ASSOCIATE EDITOR Frank Avenoso’s third year in the four year cycle was capped by his unanimous election as Editor-in-Chief of Franciscan 1962. The many necessary, elemental details connected with the position of Associate Editor encompass the full year’s span. BILL WALSH CHOSE his staff after an exhaustive search for qualified men to fill the positions of responsibility. His journalistic background also includes two years as News Editor of The Voice. Staff cooperation is paramount in the publication of an annual. A DIFFICULT PERIOD for Franciscan senior editors was during mid-October. Rounding up the Senior class for pictures, long lists and back-breaking schedules were only a few of the tasks well-performed by these trouble shooters. John Ward checks a confusing picture schedule. 116 SENIOR EDITOR VINCENT EMILIO . . . Vinnie was one of the four Senior Class copy coordinators. He also helped the business staff by soliciting ads. PART OF THE YEARBOOK ' S COST is defrayed through an ambitious advertising campaign. Organized and run by John McCormick, the Business Manager, approximately one fourth of the cost of the printing is paid by this advertising campaign. YOU ARE NOW HOLDING the end of our cycle . . . the published 1961 Franciscan. Our cycle began with an idea—an idea which we wanted to get across to you. We have worked for a year on this book. It is a picture of your cycle, and it is a picture of our last cycle. As each separate element became a part of the cycle of the 1960-1961 school year, so too each integrated element —pictures, copy, advertisements—became necessary in the compilation of this mirror of your cycle. We have attended press conferences, have spoken with some of the famous journalists and teachers of journal¬ ism in the country; we have consulted layout manuals, style books and text books to give you the best yearbook technique; we have racked our imaginations and dis¬ carded anything we did not think was worthy of this book. That was our cycle. This book is a journalistic effort, but it is also a nostalgic effort because it pictures the things we would like to live over again. But the rule of the cycle states that the experience can never be repeated; we can only preserve it through this book. SENIOR EDITOR JOHN ADAMS . . . John, another Senior coordinator, also helped solicit ads. John was a good man with ideas and acted as an adviser to the Editor-in-Chief. “WHAT A PICTURE!! . . . Complete approval is registered by Editors Walsh, Avenoso and Flynn as they view one of the divider pictures. Choosing the best pictures for each page took much of the time of the Editors. COPY EDITING AND WRITING are two of the most important positions of employment on a publication. Associate Editor Dick Flynn processed most of the copy as soon as the copy block sizes were known. The Copy Editor must also be able to interweave fact with the theme of the book. AN INAPPROPRIATE PICTURE of Sal Allocco is caught by Bill Walsh in the Franciscan office as Sal ponders a new idea in layout. An Alumnus, Sal worked untiringly and unselfishly with the Editor to ready the book for delivery early in May. JOEL BRUSTEIN, PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR, contributed most of the unusual action and available light photography in the pages of the 1961 Franciscan. A BIG HELP to the Editor in the financing of the 1961 Franciscan was Joe Harte (rear), whose concentrated efforts resulted in $300 extra advertising. “YOU FORGOT TO PUT YOUR NAME ON THE AD!” . . . Senior Editor Bob Capano contacts an advertiser in the yearbook who was evidently ex¬ tremely busy when filling out the ad form. The student body tries to patronize the advertisers as much as possible. Other Senior Editors with Capano are John Adams and Vinny Emilio. 118 QUICK HUDDLES concerning the movement of advertising space and the typing of copy occurred between Bill Walsh (right) and his two Editors, Dick Flynn and John McCormick (center). TAGGING PICTURES for the printer, Lee Whitmann, who assisted as a photographer this year, makes sure the correct in-focus print goes in the book. SPORTS EDITOR MICHAEL HEN¬ NING . . . Collecting and editing sports copy, as well as directing photographers, was Mike’s major job. His work as basketball manager made his task of identifying opposing players much easier. SPORTS EDITOR TIMOTHY COURTNEY . . . Tim assisted Mike Henning with the editing of the sports copy as well as doing an excellent job captioning the baseball pictures. SENIOR EDITOR JOHN WARD . . . An amiable diplomat, John aided his fellow Senior Editors with adver¬ tisements and Senior copy material. SENIOR EDITOR ROBERT CAP- ANO ... A good telephone conver¬ sationalist, Bob had the task of “following up” many of the Francis¬ cans promised ads. “AND GET THOSE DONE!” Art Editor Joe Reilly stresses early layout returns to rookie staffmen. Joe’s painstaking efforts with the artwork on the opening pages enabled the Franciscan to economize on expensive professional work. 119 MANY OF THE PICTURES were taken by Henry Zaitz. The large number of photographers was neces¬ sary this year to keep up with the many activities of the organizations on campus. Rifle Team A GOOD COACH . . . John Lehner’s rifle training in the Naval Air Reserve proved an asset to his team. ON TARGET . . . Rifle Club fans will appreciate the action shown above as John Lehner fires on target in the Marine Corps Armory range on Chapel Street in Brooklyn. ‘‘THE BULLET GOES HERE . . .” explains coach Lehner (right) to Dan Rosier. John Richardson fires at the target while Richard Di Benedetto (left) and Dennis Kennedy (kneeling) watch for pointers. A NEW CYCLE began this year at St. Francis College. Rather when the old Rifle Club became the new Rifle Team. In its first year, two matches with Pace College highlighted the new activity’s schedule, and five stu¬ dents made up the team’s scoreboard. Skill and marksmanship are the aims of the organization; the care and proper use of the equipment of the sport are among the educational benefits acquired by members. An extensive schedule of practice and matches has brightened the hori¬ zon of a new cycle for the team. THE SHARP SHOOTERS . . . (1st Row) Paul Tureano, Dennis Kennedy, John Donohue, Stephen Keller and Bill O Connor. (Back Row) Carlo Griletto, Ray Miller, John Lehner, John Richardson, Daniel Rosier and Richard Di Benedetto. “NO BACK TALK!” Larry McDonald keeps John Clifford, as “The Conti¬ nental” right in his place. In the background, Frank Loughlin has the “Jolly Green Giant” Pete Callahan well in hand. Pi Alpha PI ALPHA FRATERNITY has been a part of the cycles of St. Francis College since 1906. The oldest of the three fraternities here, Pi Alpha strives by life¬ long bonds of friendship and loyalty to perpetuate the cycle that begins in the undergraduate years. Dedi¬ cated to God, school and country, it operates under a code of Christian brotherhood rooted in the teach¬ ings of St. Francis himself. Its members try to bring themselves closer to each other and to God through the various duties and activities of fraternal life. While primarily a social organization, Pi Alpha is aware of its responsibilities to the school and the community. The brothers are always available to aid the Administration on occasions such as Commence¬ ment and First Friday Masses, and regular contribu¬ tions to charity are taken from fraternity funds. In spite of its other concerns, a social fraternity acts primarily to enrich the social lives of its members, and the yearly cycle of parties, dances, trips and meetings serves a definite need in the life of the stu¬ dent to grow and develop socially in preparation for the cycle of life after graduation.

Plii Rho Pi THE STORY OF THE CYCLE traveled by a group of young men dedicated to a single ideal is the story of Phi Rho Pi Fra¬ ternity. This cycle has not been broken in the thirty-seven year history of the frat. The motto, “For God, country and St. Francis” governed the original group of five members; the same words guide the fifty-six men that comprise today’s organization. The cycle is filled with many varied activities. Communion break¬ fasts, toy drives for the needy children of the Brooklyn Diocese, dance and dogging play an important part in the life of the frat brother. The individual frat members may change, but the cycle that is Phi Rho Pi Fraternity continues the same. FRANCIS FALLON Praetor JAMES MURRAY V ice-Praetor SURROUNDED by vengeful dogs, Dave Lopez gets a taste of his own medicine during Fall pledging. Good-natured ribbing from both sides keeps dogging on the proper humorous level. 125 DANCING WITH HIS DATE at the Phi Rho Pi dance, Danny Bryan enjoys the social side of fraternity life. PHI RHO PI, Continued THE LUCKY NUMBER of the winning ticket is announced by Praetor Frank Fallon at the Phi Rho Pi dance. Connie Reitz and Frank and Connie’s dates eagerly await the news. EUGENE McCAUL Secretary CONRAD REITZ Treasurer “ALLEY-OOP!” Moderator, Mr. Connell Boyle of the Math Department, gets the old heave-ho at a Phi Rho Pi stag social. Mr. Boyle became a member of the fraternity when he was a student at St. Francis. GUARDING THEIR HORDE of props to be used as they pledge for the fraternity, John Kmmm and Bill Higgins await the arrival of frat brothers to begin the day’s rounds of entertaining. AT THE COMMUNION BREAKFAST, Moderator Boyle and Brother Alex¬ ander hear Dr. Flynn’s views on current events while Praetor Fallon surveys the scene on the other side of the dais. THE VOICE OF EXPERIENCE speaks as Dr. Flynn addresses the brothers of Phi Rho Pi at their annual Communion Breakfast in Torello’s Restaurant. He is flanked by Brother Alexander and Frank Fallon. A WEARY THREESOME, Hugh McMenamin, Nick Rencricca (Carrie Nation) and Danny Bryan (Cossack) near the homestretch at the end of their week of dogging. Their seemingly silly antics taught them important things about humility and brotherhood. REPRESENTATIVES of the Administration who appear at almost all the Communion breakfasts held at St. Francis, Brother Urban and Brother Henry occupy a position of honor on the dais. A SNEAK ATTACK on Guy DeMarco gives this harried dog an outlet for pent-up steam. It looks dangerous, but it ' s all in fun. 127 IV FRANCIS SCAHILL Historian GEORGE BOBERG Student Council Representative THE TICKET TAKERS at the Phi Rho Pi dance are Praetor Frank Fallon and Vice-Praetor Jim Murray. The Fall dance was one of the highlights of the social season at St. Francis. A DEDICATED RENDITION of the frat song is a part of every fraternity dance. Here, Bernie Morgan, Jim Jones, Sal Messineo, Jim Mannix and Jim Crosby sound off for Phi Rho Pi. THE LINE-UP. John Dalton puts the dogs through their paces by the handball court.

Phi Rho Pi’s successful dance was highlighted by a large crowd, fine dance music, and, of course, the drawing for the cheer. International Relations WITH A BACKGROUND of political conferences for members information, Presi¬ dent Frank Macchiarola discusses plans for the annual Political Symposium sponsored by the club. Candidates for major local offices present their platforms to the student body in an effort to win student support for their campaigns. A SPECTACULAR ADVANCE in the stature of the International Relations Club ' s annual cycle was made this year by the appearance on campus of Roy Cohn and Barry Goldwater as guest lecturers. Indeed, the demand for tickets for the lectures was so high that, at capacity, only a limited number of students could attend. Political conventions, a symposium, membership and activity in the nationwide Association of International Relations Clubs—these have spelled su ccess for what was perhaps the most extensive program in the organization’s history. Student membership and interest in the organization also grew to a new high. KEEPING ABREAST of modern political thought, Bill Spencer prepares himself with CONGRESSMAN FRANCIS DORN, Republican incum- debate material on a current topic. He distinguished himself this year by attaining bent, presents his platform to the student body at the three high positions: Regional President of the Association of International Relations Symposium.

FACULTY MODERATORS Professor Joseph Ellis and Mr. James Martin (seated) have injected much controversy into club debates concerning current politics and policies. PERHAPS ONE OF THE MOST ACTIVE MEN in the I.R.C. organization offers many occasions for student participation, is John Milewski. For four years, he has worked with the such as lectures by prominent politicians, high school conven- groups on all projects, serving many times as Chairman. The tions, and Political Symposia. Sci lence Club “WELL, I DON’T KNOW . . ” Dr. David Ballantine ponders a point of inquiry during the question period in a Science Club lecture. Many speakers of the stature of Dr. Ballantine addressed the members concerning scientific technique, careers in related fields and ad¬ vancements in discovery. THE CYCLE OF ACTIVITIES of a scientific nature continues with the Sci¬ ence Club’s annual affiliation with the Toy Drive, the Chemical Rubber Com¬ pany, which presents the yearly Chem¬ istry Achievement Award for Freshmen, and the American Chemical Society. Guest speakers and films enlarge the scope of the cycle, as do benefit dances and field trips. Members saw the sci¬ entist at work in visits to the Hoffman- LaRoche Pharmaceutical Company and Brookhaven National Labs. The cycle’s spiritual activity included a club Communion Breakfast. Bill Ortloff President AWARDS FOR PROGRESS. President Mike Bill Ortloff awards Freshman Joseph Mirabile a copy of The Handbook of Chemistry and Physics: 42nd Edition.

GET IT!” exhorts John McCormick as he passes out sand¬ wiches at the Freshman Luncheon, an annual part of the Orientation cycle. John was on hand throughout the year to assist just about everyone with just about everything. Student Group Leader Tom Curley seems amused at the ravenous Freshmans gaping jaws.

Lucky Joe! “NO, THIS ISN ' T THE A.S.P.C.A.” On the job as usual Charlie Hueston handles all incoming calls at the main switchboard and directs them to the various extensions throughout the school. Charlie’s cheery voice became the telephone trademark of St. Francis. FEEDING FRANCISCANS in the monastery and Camp Alvernia has been the responsibility of Gil Skeene for the past thirteen yearly cycles of Franciscan education. A native of Barbados, Gil’s familiar “Let ' s Eat!” is de¬ livered in a unique West Indies accent ... a touch of calypso on campus. COLLECTING FOR A CAMPUS for the Catholic University of Formosa, the NFCCS at St. Francis responded to the plea of Pope John XXIII and sponsored the fund drive on campus. Here members provide good example by making their own donations first. The VOICE also conducted the annual Sweetheart Contest for the bene¬ fit of this praiseworthy charity. 133 CYCLIGHTS, Continued ME CHIEF, YOU SQUAW!” Noble Redman Jim O’Kelly copped first prize at Pi Alpha’s Hallowe’en Costume Party for his elaborate interpretation of Big Chief Screaming Dissenter. The social cycle culminates for Senior O’Kelly at this year’s prom, which he arranged and supervised as Prom Chairman. 1 1 if aK 1 ■ m j THE CYCLES MOVE in a continuing flow, but in all motion in which the human element is involved, there are high points. These moments, when cap¬ tured by the camera, serve as a record of the cycles of the year. We believe the photographs in this section show such moments, but we make no claim that they tell the whole story. Missing from these pages are moments that no camera could capture and no picture explain. In the cycle of studies, the long, dark, silent hours spent at home before the big exam cannot be shown here. The classes themselves, where the students receive and digest the information and opinions of education, we could not presume to invade. Nor are the actual workings of the Administration depicted here; their time is too valuable for us to interrupt. In sports, the biggest moment . . . the winning basket, the home run pitch, the last goal . . . always seems to elude the camera. In activities, the bulk of the work is carried on behind the scenes where the lens cannot penetrate. The religious activities of the student outside school, the moments spent in meditation and quiet conversation with God, are his and his alone. While this section is an attempt to capture the high points of the year, it is and must remain only an attempt. The motion of the cycles is too deep and too basic to be recorded anywhere but in the mem¬ ories of those who made them live. FIERCE DETERMINATION to win for St. Francis is evident in the face of Soph A SMILING IRISHMAN vies for votes at the I.R.C. Political Jim Raftery as he battles a Pace opponent for a rebound.

Fogarty, Varsity, Raftery led the Terriers in scoring and drew raves from the metropolitan Republican candidate for State Senate, addresses the student p ress ’ 134 body at one of the highlights of the political cycle. ON THE MARCH FOR ERIN, the loyal sons of St. Francis parade their pride for the city to see. The yearly appearance in the St. Patrick ' s Day Parade is one of the best public examples of Franciscan solidarity. A BIG MOMENT for St. Francis College came when Senator Barry Goldwater addressed the Student Body in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge. Here the Senator answers questions concerning his views on the political scene. Arranged and mod¬ erated by the IRC, the Senator’s appearance received nationwide press and television coverage and enlarged the cycle of political activity at St. Francis. A BIT OF BLARNEY in the form of Irish songs by television personality Ray Heatherton enlivened the Annual Alumni Dinner at the Hotel St. George. It was at this dinner that Brother Urban delivered his much- publicized appraisal of state aid to college students. m “ARE YOU EIGHTEEN?” Senior Class President and Pi Alpha Archon Frank Ferguson checks a legal point at the Senior Social in St. Thomas Aquinas Hall.

The ties and beanies are traditional uniform for Orientation. A PENSIVE GROUP listens to the words of Roy Cohn at an I.R.C.-spon¬ sored appearance in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge. Once the site of the old gymnasium, the Lounge was the center of political and social cycles this year. DAIS DWELLERS at the Annual Alumni Dinner included prominent figures in the Church, education and politics. Seen applauding a speaker are Very Rev. Brother Bertrand, Superior General of the Franciscan Brothers, Very Rev. Brother Urban, President of St. Francis College, and His Excellency Bryan J. McEntegart, Bishop of Brooklyn. A WEARY WALKER regulates the discussion at a knockdown, drag- out Council meeting. Spirited debates sometimes stretched the running time of the bi-weekly meetings far into the night, and at this point Joe could use a cup of coffee.

Continued “THAT IS VERY NICE WRONG ANSWER.” Dr. Clement Jedrzejewski, the learned and beloved Chairman of the Sociology Department, delivers a good-natured reprimand in his own inimitable lighthearted manner. Dr. Clement’s presence and influence made possible a close liaison between St. Francis Sociology students and the important social agencies in the metropolitan area. CYCLIGHTS, Continued THE SOCIAL CYCLE IN FULL SWING brought these couples together at the Sophomore Social in St. Thomas Aquinas Hall. Music by the Campus Tones at St. Francis College was a feature of many of the year’s outside dances. IT’S STRICTLY BUSINESS (?) as John Ward discusses yearbook covers with two fellow representatives at the Associated Collegiate [V Press Convention in Chicago. Dick Flynn and Bill Walsh also attended to mark the first time St. Francis has ever been repre¬ sented at this annual critique of newspaper and yearbook pro¬ duction by noted authorities in the field of scholastic journalism. 138 UP FOR A JUMPER over the outstretched hands of a hapless defender, Dave Lopez lofts the ball skyward for two points. Dave’s long jump shots made rival coaches simmer and Dan Lynch smile. “WHERE’S THAT BALL?” Jim Raftery and three Fairfield opponents are “up in the air” over the whereabouts of an elusive rebound. But Jimmy pulled it down and put it back up for another two points for the Terriers. “WHY, YOU . . Frank Loughlin appears slightly perturbed and understandably so, at his frustrated attempt to crack the line during the intramural football playoffs. A comprehensive intramural pr ogram under the supervision of Mr. Fazio and Richie Dreyer gave everyone a chance to exhibit his athletic prowess if he so desired. THE BIGGEST STORY OF THE YEAR, so big that it will soon become a major cycle of its own, was the purchase by St. Francis of five new buildings on Remsen Street in Downtown Brooklyn from the Brooklyn Union Gas Company. Within a few years, these buildings will house all the Business and Liberal Arts classes, the Administrative offices and the student facilities of St. Francis, while the Butler Street location will be devoted exclusively to Science. The first major step in the Expansion Program, this purchase will allow for increasing diameter in the cycles of St. Francis. SOUNDING OFF on a topic of national concern, Roy Cohn, well-known attorney who became a national figure during the McCarthy Senate Hearings, addresses the student body. Mr. Cohn gave a brief but pithy talk and devoted most of his time to answering questions. FATHER FLEMING’S FAREWELL was a proud but a sad one for St. Francis College. A teacher here for two decades, Father John Fleming was summoned to Rome by His Holiness Pope John XXIII to serve as Spiritual Adviser of the North American College in the Holy City. Here Brother Henry presents him with a token of the love and esteem of all the Franciscans he served so long and so well. Students, faculty and alumni joined to wish him Godspeed at a farewell party in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge.

John Hamilton, who must have given before, casts a know¬ ing glance at the camera. The yearly Blood Drive provides St. Francis students and their rela tives with free plasma in case of medical emergencies. WHOOPING IT UP for St. Francis at one of the traditional rallies held every year during the basketball season are Jim Mannix, Lenny Palermo, Tom Mazzerana, Dick Di Benedetto, John Richardson and Joe Scalia. Shouldn’t Di Benedetto be wearing a tie? DEDICATED TO A DEDICATED MAN. Monsignor Peter Kelleher blesses the plaque in the Library which dedicates it to the late Brother Celestine, O.S.F. This was particularly fitting tribute to a man who dedicated himself so unselfishly to the students the Library will continue to serve through the cycles to come. “OH, YOU’RE JUST SAYING THAT!” Sal Messineo turns on the charm for an appreciative audience of one at Phi Rho Pi’s Fall Dance. Sal’s caustic wit kept his classmates in stitches, but it looks as though he’s changed his tactics for this occasion. THE BIG MOMENT comes for the Senior when he steps to the stage to receive his diploma. Professor Fiorenza (right) and Brother Pascal adjust this Senior’s hood, the color of which indicates the degree he will receive at this final step in his cycle at St. Francis. “SO I TOLD THOSE POLITICOS . . .” Dr. Flynn of the Social Science Division regales the brothers of Pho Rho Pi with witty tales at their annual Communion Breakfast.

Father Lambert, O.F.M., Capuchin Retreat Master at the Third Order Villa, addresses Seniors on retreat. This inspirational speaker began all his addresses with these significant words. SNOW SCENE at the Third Order Villa in Garrison, N. Y., finds Brother Michael discussing the progress of the Senior Retreat with Father Malachy, O.F.M.

Jerry Atkins and Jack Derby pray the Rosary under the aegis of St. Anthony. “YOU’RE RIGHT ... IT IS A LITTLE CHILLY,” states Tom Mason to Frank Kehoe. Despite sub-zero temper¬ atures, the annual Retreat to the Third Order Villa, Garrison, New York, was a success. 1 AS THE CYCLE TURNS toward a close and a new beginning, so must the spirit turn toward the Cyclist. A Retreat from the things of the world so that the mind, heart and soul may dwell on the miraculous interdepen¬ dence of the esse and the essence—this is a necessary thing for the Senior; soon he must enter the world of mortals that exist beyond the educational institution. The Third Order Retreat House in Garrison, New Y r ork, and the Mount Alverno Retreat House in Wappinger Falls, New York, provide the graduate with every oppor¬ tunity for a close contact with his Maker. A TIME TO THINK . . . Frank Fallon, Jerry Atkins, John Milewski and Richie Robinson find the hour of meditation a relaxing period of the day. 144 Com mencement TO WHAT DEGREE OF HAPPINESS . . . Bishop McEntegart smiles approvingly as a graduate kisses the ring of Bishopric. He has seen many men end the cycle of intellectual discipline to begin the professional life. ONE CYCLE ENDS; three more continue; one is about to start. This is the significance of Commencement. As the undergraduate career closes for the Franciscan man, he continues in life as a man, a Catholic and a student of everything life can teach him. He will now start his professional career. Also continuing are the undergraduate cycles of the Juniors, the Sophomores and the Freshmen; beginning is the college cycle for the incoming Freshman. The number of cycles involved between the first and last day in the undergraduate career is not computable, and yet they are all interwoven in one area . . . the continuing life cycle of man. The Senior Class has lived its full collegiate cycle and it has seen the growth and the progress of three underclass cycles as well as of three classes before them. For the rest of their lives they may view the cycles as Alumni. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION ARE PENSIVE as Mr. Ernest Kehr addresses the graduating class. Since 1858, the changing members of the faculty and administration have continued the cycle of molding students into the ideals of Franciscan spirit. ► THE END OF THE BEGINNING . . . Men of the ' 61 Class receive the Bishop’s blessing in the final phase of the life cycle’s collegiate portion. 145 CAMPUS DAY FESTIVITIES are made complete by several renditions by the Glee Club. Professor Fiorenza began the group two years ago; it has since given more than ten major performances of such works as Handel’s “Hellelujah Chorus” from The Messiah. Glee Club THE 1960-1961 MUSICAL CYCLE has added Pietro Yon’s Christ Triumphant, among other selections, to the Glee Club’s already large repertoire. These numbers were showcased at the Campus Day ceremonies and at Commencement. Six months of inactivity rested the members for a rigor¬ ous schedule of two rehearsals per week. Among the new additions to their repertoire in the coming cycle of performances will he highlights from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s South Pacific and other light and semi- classical works. John McCormick President PREPARATION FOR GRADUATION EXERCISES and the Campus Day performance necessitate two rehearsals per week. The Club sings a cappella (without accompaniment), the most difficult method 146 for chorus singing. What Professor Fiorenza strives for with this method is “the display of the beauty of the human voice, unhampered by mechanical instruments.” EACH CYCLE should present new things to an organiza¬ tion and to the people involved with it and this was a prime characteristic of the Sociology Club this year. In addition to this, 1960-1961 s cycle presented the Sociology Club with a new Moderator, Brother Jogues. Continued work with the Downtown Area Renewal Effort and the Family Life Commission opened new vistas of study for the members. Case study was per¬ haps the most important aspect of the organization’s work. Guest speakers, including Dr. Jedrzejewski, satiated the members’ thirst for information concerning careers in social work. DURING HIS FIRST YEAR on the faculty of St. Francis College, Brother Jogues was named Moderator of the Sociology Club. The beginning of his cycle was marked by a close association between the club and the Family Life Commission. AS SOCIOLOGY CLUB PRESIDENT, Richie Hcnnessy intro¬ duced new areas of study to the group. Close affiliation with the Downtown Area Renewal Effort, headed by Dr. Clement Jedrze- jewsla, Chairman of the Sociology Department, opened many interesting fields to the members. A BIT OF HUMOR is injected into a meeting as the members plan the letti, Jim Donohue, Joe Hempfling, Frank Musto, Joe Flood; (2nd Row) Commission’s annual symposium.

I’d be glad to take that into consideration!” John Milevvsld, the imperturbable President of the Humanities Club, reassures a worried member. Under John’s leadership, the Humanities Club joined with the I.R.C. to present the Famous Films Festival. John is also past President of the I.R.C. THE CONTINUING GOAL of the Humanities Club is to instill a sense of the aesthetic in the student body as a whole, while furthering the cultural development of the members. Each month’s activities present a cycle within the annual cycle; the schedule is comprised of a film festival, lectures, discussions, films, record concerts and excursions. The first annual film festival boasted such titles as The Brothers Karamazov, The Great Caruso and All at Sea. Members saw Renata Tebaldi in La Boheme by Puccini at the Metropolitan Opera House, exhibits at the Guggenheim Museum, the Jose Greco Dance Company at the Brooklyn Academy of Music and the New York City Ballet Company at City Center. Record concerts at the meetings have included works by Verdi, Beethoven, Tchaikowsky, Puccini, Wagner and Bizet. Lectures and discussions were geared to a wide audience by both faculty and student participation. Legitimate and Off-Broadway theatre parties have been sponsored by the Humanities Club during the past few cycles. “AND THIS IS A TREE.” George Miller explains an example of abstract art to club members. It doesn’t look like a tree . . . “WHAT IS IT?” These Humanities Club members are having a bit of difficulty analyzing a work of modern sculpture.

A LAST MINUTE CHECK of the information on the posters by these members was the final step in preparing the publicity campaign for the Film Festival. MUCH OF THE MATERIAL discussed during the Humanities Chib’s meetings during the year was drawn from the excellent Fine Arts lectures of Professor Fiorenza. Here he smiles his approval of a point made at one of the meetings. 149 Campus Tones Sal DiBianca President and Leader REHEARSAL IS A SERIOUS BUSINESS for a musician. The Campus Tones rehearse in the Student Lounge after classes in preparation for the num erous occasions on which they are called upon to play. THE INEVITABLE JAM SESSION takes place toward the end of the rehears¬ al when the band really ‘Vanned up.” The Campus Tones feature a wide repertoire of standards and jazz classics. OUTSIDE PERFORMANCES at various parish, church and club dances afford the Campus Tones a chance to display their talents. Here, they perform at the Senior Class Party at St. Thomas Aquinas Parish, Brooklyn. MUSICIANS HAVE AN OUTLET at St. Francis College in the Campus Tones. The work in this outlet is rather hectic, however. They rehearse in the Student Lounge ‘‘after hours,” and are con¬ stantly on call by the Administration for assemblies, rallies, convocations and other scholastic functions. The Sophomore and Junior classes recently availed themselves of the Campus Tones’ talents for their class parties. The musicians have their own in¬ struments; the organization purchases the arrange¬ ments. The annual cycle calls for constant rehearsal and performance. DENNY FRANCO AND JOE AGRO cut loose on the steel guitar and saxophone while Dick Flynn (drummer) and Ron Grassi (pianist) provide rhythmic accompaniment. ic Society IT’S ALL IN FUN as members Boberg, Fitz- k patrick, Kelly, Higgins and Dalton plot to blow up the Black and Tan Police Barracks in Belfast. TWO CYCLES after five men formed the “Cumann Na Gaelic,” the Gaelic Society marched in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade with the college thirty-five mem¬ bers strong. They are now linked to the Eastern Association of Gaelic Societies, consisting of fourteen universities and colleges in the New York area. The benefits available to St. Francis College’s Irish culture group are seen in its participation in a wide range of cultural activities, and its ability to use the Association’s Speakers’ Bureau. Such great advances in two cycles point up the fact that this is a young organization, and evidently a progressive one. IRELAND’S 32 COUNTIES were well represented in the St. Pat¬ rick’s Day Parade this year, thanks to the efforts of the Gaelic Societies throughout the colleges and universities in the New York Area. Here the laughing leprechauns of St. Francis discuss plans for the school’s line of maich in the annual trek up Fifth Avenue on March 17th.

MUSCLEMAN Tom Mazzerana demonstrates the proper technique for a lift. The Weightlifting Club plans to enter interscholastic competition in the near future. SHEER CONFIDENCE is evident on the face of John Hickey as he prepares to start a difficult behind-the-neck press. THE WEIGHTLIFTING CLUB, a relatively new organ¬ ization at St. Francis, is devoted to intense instruction in weightlifting and physical fitness. Another of the Club ' s activities is intramural competition and basic instruction for beginners in the techniques of the sport. The club, which has ample space and equipment for training, adheres closely to all rules of safety and health. In late May, the team will hold its annual intramurals day with students of all weight classes participating. The final end of the club which it hopes to attain next year is participation in the cycle of intercollegiate com¬ petition. POWER PLUS is the result of rigorous training. Club members from left to right in the top row are Ed i Kast, Gerry Olexson, Ken Kosier, George La Noce. From the left in the bottom row are Dennis Kast, Tom 152 Mazzerana, Ed Fox and John Hickey.

WHILE ENGENDERING STUDENT INTER- EST in modern philosophical tenets, the St. Bonaventure Society examines the classical and medieval cycles of thought for their influence on current trends in Philosophy. Frequent discussions of current literature, sup¬ plemented by referral to Dr. Carpino’s reserved books in the Library and an enlarged Philosophy curriculum, are the tools used in the metamor¬ phosis of the members’ personal philosophies from rough ore to refined gems. For the new student, the organzation offers a beginning—a first insight into the current cycle of Philosophy as inculcated by leaders of modem thought and into the ancients who formulated, elaborated and varied ideas as a basis for con¬ temporary interpretation of the human exper¬ ience. ONE PHILOSOPHER pauses to cogitate. Thomas Reid, a member of the Philosophy Club, contributed to this year’s discussion and debate. “I WAS RIGHT!” Tom Reid exults when his point is accepted by the moderator, and Joe Cangelosi shares his exuberance. 154 THE ORGANIZER and the first Chancellor of Omega Delta Chi Fraternity was Jack Oliver. Jack was also active in the Press Club this year. i A Beginning . . . FRATERNAL SPIRIT shows in this group shot of Vin Conlon, Spence Schubert, Bob Rooney and Mike Martini. I FOR THE FIRST TIME since 1922, a new social fraternity cycle begins at St. Francis College. The inception of Omega Delta Chi on campus at the close of our cycle inter¬ weaves subsidiary cycles in the continuing major one—the development of the well- rounded man. Obstacles in the path of any new venture must be circumvented to prove the tenacious power of the organization, for, surely, every cycle has pitfalls for those who embark on it. Omega Delta Chi is no excej)tion. The strength of this new social group is demon¬ strated by the additional adherents to the basic idea of a third fraternity. Now that the Student Council has approved the constitution of Omega Delta Chi, the first cycle begins with a building of mem¬ bership and treasury toward the goal of brotherhood, fraternal spirit and social en¬ joyment. The basic rules will follow the example of the other established fraternities on campus. “The cycle we are completing has brought us an enlarged campus and a numerical growth in the student body.” This is the idea behind the expansion of activities to include St. Francis ' third fraternity. THE NEW CHANCELLOR, Spence Schubert, poses before the entire group. In the rear are (1. to r.) Bob Rooney, Frank Musto, Jack Oliver and Vin Conlon. Front row standees from the left are Mike Martini, Louis Ragusa and Peter Michel. 155 CAREERS IN JOURNALISM are discussed by Mr. Joseph Valentino, the College Placement Director, at one of the chib’s meetings. Guest speakers from many news¬ papers, including the Daily Mirror , addressed members. Press Club TABLET REPORTER Ben Gould explains easy processing of news releases by student members to the metropolitan dailies and certain weekly papers. ALL COLLEGE NEWS that occurs during the yearly cycle reaches the metropolitan dailies as well as various weeklies in the city. It is channeled through the Public Relations Office, but much of it is first reported through the student staff. The Press Club consists of students who follow news leads. They write stories on personalities, events and celebrations that will place the name of St. Francis College before the public as one of the city’s major educational institutions. The students also collec t any items that appear in the newspapers on the college; the student body finds these clippings placed on a bulletin board in the main hall of the Butler St. building. After a period of time on display here, the clippings are placed in a publicity scrapbook which is kept for the archives of St. Francis cycles. TEN MEN who arc interested enough in journalism to prepare press releases for the college as members of the Press Club listen attentively as news leads are given out. I m 1 ' v? f f I 1 IN THE EVENING BY THE MOONLIGHT . . . The officers of the Association of Evening Business Students appear somewhat like a quintet ready to give out with a rendition of some old-time favorites. Actually, the five men are posing for photographer Don Harold at the Association’s annual Communion Breakfast. Left to right are Bill Dennis, Recording Secretary; George Bevntsey, Corresponding Secre¬ tary; Gene McCormack, Treasurer; Jim McNicholas, President; and Ed Fox, Student Council Representative. AS LONG AS THE QUALITY and quantity of the credit hours remains the same, the collegiate educational cycle does not change with varied length. The evening student receives the same education and has the same interests as the day student, but his is a six year cycle. The Association of Evening Business Students is his outlet. The program, consisting of dances, Communion breakfasts and parties, offers multiple activities of diverse sorts. The evening student, a working man and most often a family man, welcomes the chance for social intercourse with his fellow students. Most important, a common vocational interest brings the evening students together. The lectures, studies and reports on business world developments stimulate discussion, debate and investigation into their chosen fields. AFTER THE MEAL WAS OVER, breakfasters sat back to relax, smoke and talk. On the dais, Mr. Joseph Gunning (1.), chats with Brother Henry, as Father Quinn explains a few of the points he made in his talk to Brother Urban and Mr. Joseph Castronovo (r.). 157 A DOWN TO EARTH SPEAKER . . . Father Michael Quinn, of St. Saviour parish in Brooklyn, speaks to the evening business students and their guests at their Communion Breakfast at Howe’s in Bay Ridge. Father reminded the evening men of their responsibilities to home, school, work and themselves. Loyalty Lund IN THE INITIAL CYCLE of the Loyalty Fund (1959-1960), the student body of St. Francis College broke all existing records of a student response to such a request! The fund asked that each student give a sum—anything they chose— as a token of his loyalty to his Alma Mater. Ninety-eight point six per cent of the students at St. Francis did so, breaking Notre Dames previous record. The most important fact, how¬ ever, is that it was accomplished in the first drive on the campus! Completely student-organized, the Loyalty Fund used a variation of last years approach in con¬ nection with the college’s building fund. Stu¬ dents were asked to pledge a sum of money to be paid over two semesters. The figures are therefore not yet available, but will be at the close of this semester. The result of last years fund was immense stature for St. Francis’ name in educational circles; continuation of the record is 1960-1961’s goal. STUDENT LEADERS met at the beginning of the fall semester to plan a new aproach to the second annual Loyalty Fund. Joe Walker, Council President, served as Student President of the Loyalty Fund for 1960-1961. “YOUR GOAL?” asks Brother Angelo, Alumni Executive Secre¬ tary. The answer he received: to top last years record-breaking 96.8% response.! IN APPRAISING student suggestions for an approach to the stu¬ dent body, Mr. Joseph A. Mahoney stressed the point of making the Loyalty Fund a living thing—something the students would be interested in supporting. 158 Math Cluh THE MATH CLUB plays a major role is the cycle tha t is the math majors college life. The club’s chief premise: more than classroom in¬ struction is needed to acquaint the student with the intricacies of his major field of study. The student learns of the change in ' procedure that occur daily in this world of missiles and rockets. He is encouraged to do individual re¬ search in varied fields of study, so that he will eventually be able to choose the one for which he is best suited. Graduate students lecture the club members on the difficulties encountered by the mathematician upon his graduation from college. The members themselves are allowed to lecture at the clubs weekly meetings and a discussion period usually follows. This cycle of activity has produced leaders in many fields of mathematical endeavor. I “THEY SPELLED ST. FRANCIS WRONG!” . . . Fac¬ ulty member Mr. Joseph Lazzara casts what might be an English major’s eye at the Conference Awards. Approxi¬ mately one hundred students appeared on the testing day. Math Club members were extremely interested in learning of the advanced work now being taught in the high schools. IMITATION WOOD! . . . Jim Addiego, Jim Heverin and Dave Lopez examine the awards at the Annual High School Mathematics Conference, sponsored by St. Francis College. A Bishop Loughlin student won the award this year. A PROGRAMMING CAREER with I.B.M. is the subject of this discussion between Brother Leo, Math Club moderator, Ed Taylor and Carmine Allocco. Through the frequent lectures given by alumni, various math careers are pre¬ sented to club members for consideration. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION IN THE LIBRARY . . . Mr. Connell Boyle (1.), recent graduate of the college and now on the faculty teaching math, listens to Mr. Robert Schwabacher’s views on a recent novel. The RECORDAK microfilm machine in the background enabled the library staff to record prom¬ inent magazine articles. SENIORS AT EASE . . . Bill Karnbach, Jim Crosby, Bill Anderson, Frank Scahill and Tom Ward get together in the yard during April to discuss their Easter vacation plans. Beautiful weather in late March and early April made for a well-used yard, despite the large number of parked cars. SQUINTING SPECTATORS . . . Mike Ortiz, Joe Desidue and Jim Henning look through the bright sunlight at a group of stu¬ dents enjoying a “three-man” game of basketball. THE CYCLES NEVER STOP MOVING, but in their course they pass through the same locations every year. In the Library, in the Lounge, in the classrooms and on the courts, these scenes are repeated with every cycle. Each year the number of locales increases as the physi¬ cal plant grows to meet the needs of modern education. Every student seems to have his own favorite spot to relax. Some gather in the Library to pursue their studies. Others prefer informal sessions in the Lounge or, when the weather is mild, on the benches of the Father Moran Court. Because St. Francis believes the interests of education are best served by a small school with a maximum of personal contact, professors and instructors are often part of these gatherings, and their comments outside the classroom can be as informative as formal lectures. Because St. Francis is and will always be a small school, the students enjoy a closeness and familiarity that are lost in the complexities of a larger institution. The people who gather in these familiar campus spots know each other well. This is important, for the friendships formed in the college years are those we will keep and cherish through all the cycles of our lives. 160 VARIED INTERESTS . . . Two Freshmen busy themselves with Business Law cases (one seems distracted); Jim McMahon utters one of his sardonic taunts and Mrs. Mary McDermott doggedly attends to her daily tasks. All are a part of the cyclical activity seen in the lounge. SNOW IN THE CITY doesn ' t stay white long. The path through the yard between the back door of the Lounge and Baltic Street is well used by students coming to and from class es. A GOOD PLACE TO STUDY is the Library ' . Vinnie Sica concentrates on an upcoming quiz while Gene McCaul racks his memory ' for a math formula. In the background, Tony Pantano checks an old Times edition and Jim Henning whispers to a friend. DRESS-SHIRTED LEAPERS . . . Ken Murray (1.), Frosh Class Presi¬ dent, executes a jump shot against a closely guarding classmate. Quickly formed teams were a common sight in the yard during clement weather. CYCLOCALES, Continued AN EVERYDAY SCENE IN THE LIBRARY finds some students deeply en¬ grossed in study, others chuckling over a ridiculous math answer, and one staring at the camera. There’s a ham in every crowd. THE MID-DAY BUZZ . . . The Monsignor Kelly Lounge is the center of all social activity at the college. Here, students become better acquainted with one another; eating, studying, campaigning, rallying and the ever-popular “bull-session” in the Lounge were recurrent parts of the student’s daily life. BONING UP ... In his office on the third floor, Dr. John McLoughlin examines the last remains of an ancient biology specimen. Dr. McLoughlin is considered by many of his students and confreres as “a brain.” THE EYE BLINKS approximately twenty-three times per min¬ ute. Mario Favorito gives evidence of this fact while he and Charlie Butler (r.) listen to Dr. Flynn’s views on Communism at an Alumni meeting. 162 “HE WAS EXCELLENT IN THAT SCENE” ... Brother Giles comments on a performance by one of his Troupers. A telephoto lens did the trick with the “rarely-caught-by-the camera” Moderator of the Troupers. MEETINGS were a major part of class and club cycles, and for the most part, these were held in classrooms which weren’t being used at the time. (1. to r.), Bemie Alicks, Steve Keller, Jim Henning and Pete Michel listen to Frank Mac- chiarola at an IRC meeting in December. COMICAL DISGUST is registered by Editor Dick Flynn as he spots another printing error on the sports page of the Voice. At his desk in the Student Activities Office, Dick examines each new issue of the Voice as a proud father would examine his new-born. EASY, NOT TOO MUCH.” . . . Paul Luoto (center), cautions Gene Birmingham against using too much mercury in their homemade thermometer, while Dick Bomer adds extra al¬ cohol to an unidentifiable experiment. Weighing Philosophy texts? “TWAS EVER THUS ..”... Whether it be in the yard, the Lounge, Library, classroom or on a stairway, a student will always be found studying. Pete Moose- _ __ burgger reviews his class notes at the foot of the stairway in the main hallway, loi ATHLETICS m THE IDEAL PRODUCT of the cycles of St. Francis is a complete man in all the aspects of his being ... he is sound in body as he is in mind. The entire sports program at St. Francis is directed toward this goal. Each sport has its own specific pur¬ pose and develops its own particular skills, while all instill a sense of team¬ work and fair play. To wan is im¬ portant, but not essential. The benefits derived from sports he primarily in participation; triumph is secondary. The only possible danger that could exist in a collegiate sports program is that it might be permitted to inter¬ fere with intellectual endeavor, and here at St. Francis this possibility is carefully excluded. No athlete may participate in any interscholastic event unless he is a student in good scholas¬ tic standing. We point with pride to the excellent records of many of our finest athletes. Each sport has its own cycle of train¬ ing and competition, and the seasons are so arranged as to permit the student to join more than one of the interscholastic teams if he meets the qualifications of talent and desire. Since athletic prowess is not equally granted to all, a comprehensive • in¬ tramural program provides an excel¬ lent outlet for those who might wish to compete on an interscholastic level but fail to meet the rigid standards of the varsity teams. The soul of the Franciscan man must dwell in a fitting tabernacle, and it is the cycle of sports that adds this element of the whole man. THE ATHLETIC CYCLE is symbolized by the curve of the pitch and the arc of the bat in a St. Francis diamond triumph. ■teHl UP AND IN. Tom Kurowski, Bob Morton and Paul Buckley yell words of encouragement as Ken Powers drives through the entire LIU Frosh Team to score an important basket in 70-68 win. A fast squad with lots of scoring punch gave the Frosh a 13 and 5 record. The faces you see here will be repeated next year in the Varsity cycle. FROSH BASKETBALL SCORES S.F.C.

Although St. Francis was beaten by the Redmen, Dave Lopez received the Most Valuable Player trophy for his play in the game. THE WATER POLO CYCLE moves into high gear as finmen thrash the water in quest of the ball during a pre-game warmup. PRACTICE AND MORE PRACTICE all year long had its rewards for the Terrier Water Polo squad. Although the season lasts only two months, workouts stretched throughout the school year. Three nights a week found the players braving the waves at the Metropolitan Pool in Brooklyn under the watchful eye of Coach Schaem. As of this printing the team stands undefeated and is in readiness for the East Coast polo powers, namely Army and Wile. Traditionally, these meetings have been the criteria by which the aquamen have measured their own success. Senior Co-Captains Bill Anderson and Joe Walk¬ er have anchored the defense in allowing a scant 20 points in 4 games, while Charlie Harris, Frank Loughlin, Don McQuade, Ed Peters, Jerry Grescek, and Larry Lynch have provided the scoring punch for all of our 91 goals. f TERRIER TERRITORY . . . and once again the defense prepares to block the inevitable shot. Ray Bishop, in the foreground, gives chase to the ball, while Frank Avenoso guards his man closely. The defensive work held the swimmers from M.I.T. down to seven points. and k IN THE FOREGROUND, Charlie Harris and Don McQuade watch the ball in flight. As the leading scorers of the varsity squad, this duo combined speed and know how to stabilize the offense. “THAT’S THEIR GOAL,” chastises Coach Schaem. The Brooklyn Poly game was the first of the season, and served as a good beginning to iron out mistakes. The score was St. Francis 20, Poly 9. SENIOR BILL ANDERSEN dribbles the ball out from his defensive position. A three year veteran of aquatic antics, Willy had timely advice for all of the nine rookies who joined the squad this year. “THIS WILL MAKE FIVE,” Don McQuade appears to be ; indicating to Frank Loughlin, as he prepares for a shot. High scoring Don had a field day against Community College as he chalked up eleven goals. ONE OF OUR WATERCRAFT IS MISSING. All that it takes was off in a flash with the loose ball and on his way to another is a hand on the ball and consequences like this follow.

This has been in evidence last Fall and during the early part of the Spring Season for the Terrier baseball team. Every afternoon, except when playing scheduled games, you will find this spirited Terrier team working on their weaknesses at Red Hook field under the talented eye of Coach Pete Fazio. Last Fall, the Terriors won four and lost one, and participated in the Iona Tournament. They defeated St. Peter ' s twice, 6-4 and 8-7, Pace 11-0 and Pratt 7-1 while losing to Siena 8-7 in extra innings. Tom Keller, Artie Beyer, Ray Nash and Tim Courtney received credit for these victories. Strong batting by Richie Dreyer, Pete Callahan, Bi ll Barnewold, Ray Nash and Artie Beyer supplied the scoring punch in the victories. Despite an abbreviated number of practice sessions due to the lack of facilities, the Terriers opened the season by trouncing Brooklyn College 23-8. Four Terriers . . . Ray Nash, Richie Dreyer, Artie Beyer and Frank Kehoe . . . collected three hits apiece in leading the St. Francis 17-hit attack. The following week, after losing to Iona 10-4, the Terriers dealt Seton Hall its first defeat of the season, 3-1. Tom Keller displayed savvy and clutch-pitching in his six innings of work. From these early- season performances, the chances look good that the Terriers will b£ in the running for the Knickerbocker Conference title right down to the wire. A BARNEWOLD BINGLE . . .

Terrier rightfielder Bill Cardone smashes a single to center against Pace. The Terriers blanked Pace 11-0 in fall competition. CUTTING LOOSE . . . Tom Keller follows through after firing his patented fast ball by an Iona batter. Iona defeated St. Francis 10-4. NO PROBLEM . . . Centerfielder Richie Dreyer shades his eyes from the sun in making a catch during warmups at the MECCA tournament The cleanup hitter of the St. Francis nine, Dreyer, of basketball renown, delivered many clutch hits. BEYER BLASTS ONE . . . Shortstop Artie Beyer, the Terriers’ Captain and leading hitter, doubles home a pair of runs in the Brooklyn College triumph. St. Francis humbled Brooklyn in the opening game of the spring season, 23-8. AW COME ON, FELLAS, CAN’T I PLAY? Basball manager Jerry Atkins (65) quizzes Frank Kehoe (84) and Artie Beyer about his chances of playing in a game. 1 i “NOW, COACH?” Joe Reilly, Terrier relief pitcher, gets his arm in’shape during an early season workout. Joe and the four other Seniors will leave a hard gap to fill when they graduate in June. “ALAS! ! I MISSED THREE!” Ken Olson bemoans an off-center shot which gave him a mere seven points for the frame. The team used the Bowlmor Lanes as their home base during the season. FRANK TIERNEY, MIKE CASSATTA AND ARTIE BEYER were three of the high scorers of this year’s kegler team. An extremely competitive season is what the team seems to thrive on, as this year’s record showed. I TEAM PICTURES (1. to r.) Frank Tierney, Ken Olson, Mike Cassatta, Artie Beyer, Mike Nastri and Charlie Jaeger. IN GOOD FORM, Mike Nastri completes a toss which netted the team another strike. Keglers found many passers- by interested in their league games; Nastri provided them 184 with some excellent scores. AND IT’S A WIN FOR S.F.C.! A jubilant te am ch eers the final score. Mike Nastn, a Math major, proved a natural for the job of score keeper. THE BOWLING TEAM competes in the Eastern States Intercollegiate Bowling Conference, and is cur¬ rently in a tight race for second place with Hofstra and St. Johns. The keglers, paced by Co-Captain and Coach, Mike Nastri, have posted a 36-21 league record as of this writing. At one point during the season, the Terriers defeated Brooklyn Poly, 3-0, and Queens 2-1 in winning 11 out of 12 games. The remainder of the squad who aided in compiling this fine record are Frank Tierney, Mike Cassata, Ken Olsen, Art Beyer, Charlie Jaeger and Nick Facorelli. DEAD-EYE DICK seems to have a descendent in Mike Cassatta. Known for his deadly aim, Cassatta demonstrated a clear-eyed intensity in bowling which was the winning spark in many a frame. ANOTHER OFF-CENTER SHOT is hurled by Frank Tierney. This shot, added to Ken Olsons, nearly cost the Terriers the game, but an excellent last frame rescued the six-man team. WITH A WIDE ARC in his arm movement, Ken Olsen lets loose with a curve ball down the alley for the completion of a spare for the Terrier keglers.

Golf ON OCTOBER 13, 1960, the Golf Team, composed of Bob Bazzone, Captain, Artie Beyer, Brian McCartney and Joe Harte, began its cycle by participating in the Middle Eastern College Golf Tournament. Mostly because of inclement weather, the team took a fifth place, which was only four strokes behind St. Peters. The Terrier golfers pitted their skills against other for¬ midable foes, such as host college Siena, Kings College and LeMoyne.

Tennis THIS FALL, the Terrier Tennis Team competed in the Middle East¬ ern College Sports Festival. The festival was held in Albany, New York, on Thursday and Friday, October 13th and 14th. Since golf is a Fall and Spring sport, and with competition predominantly against metropolitan colleges, the lack of adequate practice facilities has ham¬ pered the ability of the Terriers to achieve success. While the team’s record during the ’60-’61 season is not an impressive one, the presence of five new and promising rookies gives the future of the Terrier team a bright outlook.

Mike’s efforts in the bowling intramurals netted him the highest totals, but since he is a member of the Varsity Bowling Team, the trophy went to Tony Veneziano, the next highest kegler.

THE INTRAMURAL CYCLE at St. Francis is one of the largest and most varied in New Y 7 ork City. Activities are offered in more than twenty sports including basketball, bowling, foul shooting, golf, handball, swimming and track. In the five-man basketball intramurals, held at P.S. 32, the “J T. Premiers,” a predominantly Fresh¬ man club, defeated the Ohio Staters” 72-70. The Premiers, led by Arroyo ' s 33 points and the able court work of Wallace and Toner, overcame a 15- point deficit in chalking up the win. In the track and field events held at Red Hook Stadium, John Clifford led all competitors to cap¬ ture the meet trophy. Top man in the bowling was Tony Veneziano, while Bill Higgins copped the foul-shooting trophy. The’ weather put a damper on some of the intra¬ murals this year. The severe snow storms which hit the New York area forced the postponement and eventual cancellation of the finals in touch football, three-man basketball and volleyball. The winners of the various intramural trophies receive their awards at the annual Athletic Awards Dinner held in the Monsignor Kelly Lounge in late May. 188 “YOUR MOVE, CHARLIE.” The chess intramurals hits a snag as Phil Tracey (left) momentarily stumps Charlie O Neill with a masterful maneuver.

Each year, the yearbook must supplement its budget by soliciting advertisements, and this work begins long before the first picture is snapped or the first caption penned. For their monetary aid we are grate¬ ful, but this is not our only reason for including the advertisers as a major section in the 1961 Franciscan. In any yearbook, the advertisements appear last, but seldom is their true significance or the reason for their position explained. We feel that this section is both a symbol and an affirmation. It is a symbol in that it represents the next cycle to which we now progress . . . the cycle of life in the world. Once beyond the academic 1 portals, this is the world in which we must live. These are the people and organizations with and for whom we must plan, work and produce. It is here that the iron of our education must be tempered in the fires of toil and travail to become the steel of our ultimate selves. The diversity of the advertisers prefigures the very diversity of life itself. The section is an affirmation in tha t all the individuals and groups herein represented have indicated their ap¬ proval of the goals and ideals of Franciscan education and their con¬ fidence in our ability to utilize what we have learned. Now we must prove we are worthy. Thus it is that the final section of the 1961 Franciscan signifies not an end but a beginning. The back cover does not seal this book because this section opens it to the future. Our cycle has ended . . . and our cycle begins. THE NEXT CYCLE is the cycle of the business world, whence we glean advertisers such as Barnes and Noble ' s college bookstore.

A YEARBOOK ACKNOWLEDGMENT is usually a formal statement of “thanks ” to people responsible for the annual’s publication. With this word, I would like to go a -little deeper than formality because there is something more than just layout, pictures and copy in the 1961 Franciscan . This “something” is entirely intangible and almost impossible to define. Call it what you may . . . work, worry, pride or prejudice ... it is there and will always remain so. In telling the story of this year’s cycle, my staff was invaluable; their talent and sacrifices are evident in these pages. There are some to whom my staff and I might have become “pests.” To Brother Alexander and his assistants in the Registrar s office, to Brother Angelo and his time-saving Address-o-Graph machines and to Brother Roger and his staff in the Treasurers Office, I extend my sincere and warm appreciation. Advice and consultation provided a necessary supplement to our knowledge of yearbook procedure. To Brother Michael, to Dr. Regis L. Boyle, to Mr. Wayne J. Wisdom, to Mr. Salvatore Allocco and to our Moderator, Mr. Nathaniel Pallone, go my heartfelt thanks. Professionals, such as Messrs. Frank and Fred Ball of New City Printing Company, Mr. George Routel and Miss Ethel Jones of Routel Studios, Inc., and Mr. Emil Schmidt of Craftco Covers Inc. were indispensable. To all of them, thanks and congratulations on a very fine job. And last, but by no means least, thanks to all of our Advertisers, Patrons, Sponsors and Boosters. With their help, the extra color in the 1961 Franciscan was made possible. At times, to some people, “thank-you” seems like a very trite phrase, but here it is a heartfelt one. When one works, helps or contributes to a particular cycle, he passes through a smaller one of his own. The words thank-you and the appreciation indicated therein are actually the completion of both cycles. The story of the 1961 Franciscan is complete and so are the individual cycles of those who helped complete it. Sincerely, IOclIsJL William J.
