St Josephs College - Phase Yearbook (Rensselaer, IN)

Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1953 volume:

This is you entering St. Joseph’s Col¬ lege for the first time. Remember how you felt as you approached the big doors of the Administration Building? Kind of scared? Were you wondering what this new phase of life was to be like, how you would do, what kind of friends you’d make? Well, you’re all done now. Four years of your life have sped by on the wings of time. You’re older now—more educated —a little wiser. And you’re pretty glad you chose St. Joe as your alma mater. You wanted knowledge; you’ve gained it. Not mere textbook knowledge do you have, though that is important too, but knowledge of your religious duties to God and man; knowledge of your major field and a smattering of many others; know¬ ledge of social conduct and how you are to handle yourself when you’re with others; and knowledge of the benefits of athletics in producing a sound body for a sound mind. You came here to be trained on all four fronts—religious, academic, social, and athletic. You came to be wholly educated, and not in just a few fields. And you have been satisfied. For St. Joseph’s educates the whole man. CUV DcLuadocL mcuv ST. JOSEPH’S CULTIVATES THE SOUL OF MAN The identifying characteristic of any Catholic college is the care it spends in instructing the religious side of the student. Putting first things first, the Catholic institution will provide the usual education in the secular subjects, but will subordinate these to the more important truths of religion. St. Joseph’s does this too. The atmosphere of Catholi¬ cism surrounds all school activities and permeates their very essence. All school events occur against a background of service to God, just as the twin towers of the college chapel symbolically jut into the heavens and overlook all other campus buildings and the activities therein. The towers of the chapel are a constant reminder of the Occupant whose presence they manifest. It is no wonder then, that the traditional symbol of St. Joseph’s has al¬ ways been these two landmarks, which represent the prin¬ cipal teachings of St. Joseph’s—those of the Catholic re¬ ligion.

JOSEPH’S CULTIVATES THE INTELLECT OF MAN Realizing that a man needs not only the essentials for proper performance of his religious duties, but also secular knowledge for his future career in life, St. Joseph’s full- fills the age-old conception of the purpose of a college— to instruct men in the arts and sciences. A whole man requires a balanced education. St. Joseph’s has long been recognized as a leader in the academic field: it ranked in the highest classification of the North Central Association this year. The teacher-student ratio is purposely kept low, so as to provide the best possible attention to the needs of the individual student. Most of the teaching personnel comes from the ranks of the Society of the Precious Blood, whose members donate their time and effort in instruction. These priests are versed in most of the commonly taught college courses, and, supplemented by members of the lay fac¬ ulty, offer instruction in many fields of knowledge from which the student may choose his favorite.

Throughout his entire life, man has dealings with others of the human race. To aid in these transactions and con¬ tacts, man obeys social convention and the norms of social conduct. These norms are learned, not as an academic subject is learned—through books—but through practice and proper use of opportunities for contact with others. To cultivate these in the student, St. Joseph’s fosters and encourages participation in clubs, organizations, and activities held on campus either under administration or student aus¬ pices. Toward this goal, also, the college gives enthusiastic backing to student efforts in the social field to help the undergraduate in broadening his social and cultural abil¬ ities. . . .

JOSEPH’S CULTIVATES THE PHYSICAL FAC¬ ULTIES OF MAN. If the fruits of a college education are to be enjoyed by a graduate, it is necessary that there be a sound physical constitution to maintain the body while these fruits are being applied. St. Joseph’s, mindful of the all-work and no play” maxim and its consequent effects on Jack, provides a wide program of sports and athletic activities to enable the student to enlarge his physical prowess. Besides building the body, athletics provides that sense of competition and of unified spirit that only sport can bring about. A healthy school spirit” is one benefit de¬ rived from athletic contests with fellow colleges. Especially stressed at St. Joseph’s is the intramural pro¬ gram, wherein all students are encouraged to compete, particularly those who lack the necessary qualities for varsity participation. INTO THE FRAY . . . . . . AMID THE CHEERS 9 ihdiqjum. Religion is the undercurrent of all activity at St. Joseph’s. Although it may not be there specifically, underneath all, religious principles apply to the basic operations. From the moment he arises to the moment he tucks the blanket under his already-nodding head, the student at St. Joe has ample opportunity to practice and observe his religion. Mass in the morning—more than forty are offered each day on St. Joseph’s twenty altars—is a good opener. These begin before 6:00 A. M. and continue uninterruptedly until 8:30. Holy Communion is distributed at every Mass at the high altar every day. This Most Precious of gifts is a daily possibility for everyone, for no residence hall is more than five minutes’ walk to one of the three chapels on the campus. After classes, or between them, or during the noon hour, the student may want to visit the chapel, which is open at all hours. In the evening after dinner. Benediction and other services appropriate to the season are held in the main chapel. T hese are always followed by an opportunity for Con¬ fession. Sometimes the every-day services are not enough. On special occasions— during Lent, October, or Forty Hours—devotions of a more particularized sort are held at separate times of the day. Each year the student body par¬ ticipates in a retreat with a director from the Mission Band of the Society of the Precious Blood. During the past year, one highlight of the religious facet of St. Joe life was the appearance of the Pilgrim Statue of Our Lady of Fatima. Its local visit was the first on its regular itinerary since it was specially blessed by the Pope. St. Joseph’s is staffed by many priests, brothers, and sisters of the Society of the Precious Blood. Priests make up the greater part of the faculty; the brothers work in the local shops and handle many of the farm duties on the large Collegeville acreage; and the sisters prepare and serve the meals to students. The campus’ Xavier Hall houses some sixty priesthood students, whose presence adds a special seminary flavor to the religious atmosphere of the whole. Page thirteen BISHOP THE MOST REV. JOHN B.

(Brother Henry Olberding is missing.) BROTHERS A mighty mainstay of the Collegeville community is the brother. Assuming tasks, often highly skilled, that no one else on the campus would care or dare to undertake, these stalwarts of the Precious Blood order devote themselves day in and day out, on farm, in shop and office, behind wheel and soda fountain, and over sick-bed, to furthering the aims of St. Joseph’s College. Though relatively few in number, they make their presence felt in vital spots and situations all over the campus. Discussing the problems are: Father Herber, Brothers David, Paulinus, Conrad, and John Bruney. Causing a disturbance are: Brothers Gerard, Joe, Louis, Camillus. Looking over the situation is Father Herber. Page sixteen Seated: Sisters Joachim, Baptista, Theodota, Francisca (superior).

SISTERS Nearly 2000 meals a day for over 200 days of the year adds up to nearly half a million meals—and good ones too. That’s the task which faces the twelve Precious Blood sisters at St. Joseph’s each school year. It breaks down to nearly 40,000 servings that each sister must prepare during the course of two semesters. How the sisters and their small staff manage this feat, perhaps only they themselves will ever know. What all Collegeville knows is this—if the sisters were not constantly on duty with pan and oven, skillet and ladle, 600 people would miss them very, very much, and 600 mouths would be very, very hungry. � j ...

The backbone of any college or institution of higher learning is the aca¬ demic instruction it affords. Without this, it scarcely deserves the collegiate title. Despite the good-timers,” the main reason any average person pursues his education beyond the high school stage is to acquire additional knowledge. Students have a wide variety of tastes in selecting their chosen field of academic effort. It is difficult, if not impossible, to fulfill all the possibilities to which the thirst for knowledge may lead. Taking into consideration its size, situation, and amount of teaching personnel, St. Joseph’s endeavors to produce as complete a curriculum as possible. The past year saw increased efforts in this matter as the three-two” plan was effected in certain engineering fields. This involves a five-year overall attendance at St. Joseph’s and at one of three other schools, at the conclusion of which time, both a B. S. in Engineering and an A.B. in the Arts will be awarded. Another development in St. Joseph’s educational growth was the further expansion of the Calumet Center extension, which began flexing its muscles more firmly in this, its second year of existence. When one thinks of the educational facilities of a college, one of its most important adjuncts—the student—pops into mind. And St. Joe has them— all_ sorts, sizes, and shapes, it has them. Some 450-odd men in varying stages of maturity and intellectual development crowd themselves within the walls of Collegeville’s seven residence halls, and make their presence felt in class¬ room, library, and laboratory. Each class governs itself; it has the usual four class officers and sponsors the usual class projects, always aiming for a better class of ’53 or ’54 or ’5 5, or whatever the class in question may be. The previously mentioned residence halls form the home base of operations for the 450-odd. Although not strictly segregated, certain halls attract certain classes as a matter of course, and for a time are stamped with the characteristics of the predominant group.

Gracefully situated amid groves of fragrant evergreens on the sunrise side of the campus, Drexel owns a tradition separate from that of all its fellows. It is the only privileged hall at St. Joe, and its occupants receive liberties not granted the minions of the other side.” Three floors tall it towers, and all three house a fascinating collection of upperclassmen. Page thirty-four Senior Class Officers: President Ken Zawodny, Vice-President Tom Schnieders, Secretary-Treasurer John Haffner. SENIORS In the senior, all the efforts that the college has expended in educating a whole man are at their peak. In him is accumulated the work of literally hundreds of teachers, fellow students, confessors, common laborers around the campus—anyone who has ever made contact with him here at St. Joe. They have all left their indelible impression on him; the totality of these impressions is the net effect of the attempt to build up the whole man. The college hopes that the senior, as he struggles along in the arduous strain of life and labor, will apply his well-rounded education to his toils and develop a philosophy of life that will do himself and his alma mater great credit. St. Joseph’s has done its share; it is the graduating senior who must bring to fruition the time and effort used to educate him. He has been schooled in the art of being a whole man; his Final Examination will be a long one. For only by observing the graduate as he wends his way through life will anyone be able to claim good or bad results from the schooling. And when the Final Grades are in, only then will anyone be able to judge whether the attempt to create a whole man was successful. Page thirty-five mm SENIORS ’53 ROBERT C.

SENIOR SPOTLIGHT They first saw the light of day on the St. Joe campus way back on September 12, 1949. They were 197 strong then— the class of ’53 was, and they were rearin’ to go. And rear they did. During initia¬ tion, they took a pond wetting in stride, and to prove their good sportsmanship, threw the sophomore president in, too. Don Gault was their chosen leader during the first year; Ed Cavanagh was vice- president; and Cotter Tharin was secre¬ tary-treasurer. High on the orientation test was Tom Suess, with Dick Vossler second. Others in the top ten were Bob O’Connor, Gene Rueve, and Don Nowicki. Among the Puma cheerleaders was Don Netols. Vladimir Pregelj, Svyatoslav Borys, Wilkie Chung, and Gregory Yuen were the new St. Joe men from abroad; freshmen Dan Deneau and Gene Ziemba made the Dean’s List. Jack Krusenklaus was named class president for the sophomore year—until he fell into the clutches of the U. S. Marines. Jack stayed long enough to give his successor. Bob Underwood, helpful hints on frosh initiation. Tom Schnieders copped the intramural tennis finals. Goose” Gausselin and Bill Dietz won the pinochle tourney in a close decision. A sad note was the Korean death of former ’53-er Harry Rochon on April 20, 1951. Later, in 1952, came the news of Denny Donahue’s death on the same field. The junior year of the class of ’53 was spearheaded by the old warhorse, Don Nowicki, chosen president. Rudy Volz spearheaded the cheerleaders; Joe Konkel spearheaded the Columbian Players in two plays. Miro Pregelj was named NFCCS senior delegate, which post he resigned later to take up the regional presidency. Jack Dwyer was chosen most valuable player on the basketball squad. The new Student Union constitution went into effect that year, but George Riggs was the only member of the class of ’53 to win a position in the balloting. Tom Saxelby was the winning candidate for this year’s Chicago Club presidency, but he lost out to Uncle Sam in another close contest. The Prom had An Evening in Paris” theme; Dick Carlton supplied the music. Chair¬ man of the event was Ken Zawodny, who later was elected senior president. He, too, eventually lost out to the Army mid¬ way in his senior year. September, 1952—three years since the first time, some ninety seniors reentered St. Joe for the last time. Don Gorman was the new Monogram Club head, and he boomed a successful Homecoming. John Pastrick took over the Student Council vice-presidency. Samuel Cardinal Stritch was named as Commencement speaker for the June ceremonies. Eleven seniors made Who’s Who; seventeen, the Student Lead¬ ers. At the semester mark Tom Schnieders took over as president and guided the oldsters toward their final four months of college work. Page forty-five Noll Hall, the Crossroads of Collegeville, is the main traffic artery between class and chow, as well as the domicile of many of the juniors and sophs, the latter overrunning the upper floor and a wing of the lower. Centrally located, it is traditionally the noisiest and most used of all the halls and serves as a temporary camping grounds for itinerant Drexelities while the latter visit the other side.” NOLL HALL Page forty-six Seated: President Paul Stegmeyer, Vice-President Edward Linskey, Secretary Vincent Agnew, Treasurer George Smolar. •ill JUNIORS A junior is a person who, though he has undergone most of the collegiate rigors, still needs a few finishing touches to become a whole man. The basic understandings are there, but some polishing of the rough edges is necessary before his education is complete. He has proved the excellence of what he has thus far absorbed by his handling of such responsible matters as a Junior Prom, in addition to the many club and activity positions juniors are called upon to assume. During his third year, he begins work on his major field and initiates somewhat in¬ tensive study on that phase of life which he has chosen to pursue. In his senior year, he will continue this study and embark upon preparations for his graduation requirements. The junior is approaching graduation, but he is not so close that he does not take things a little easier and less seriously than his senior compatriot. Com- prehensives are a name in the background, something to think about, but still nothing to get worried over. During his junior year, the average college student reaches legal majority —his twenty-first birthday. The added responsibilities of this milestone in life serve to test his mettle as well as the instruction that has been implanted in him. Page forty-seven JUNIORS Buel T. Adams A.

Zander William J. Zimmer JUNIOR HIGHLIGHTS St. Joseph’s entered its sixtieth year as the class of ’54 entered. The two have got along pretty well ever since. One hundred and fifty-six of the greenest freshies imaginable were the class of ’54’s gift to collegiate life back there in September, 1950. John Navarra, Bob Arlington, and Bob O’Connor were among the heroes of the frosh day then. Dick Kott, George Kuhn, and Jack Dennis were the first of the class to be in a Columbian Players’ production—their first semester here. Bill Staley’s extra point de¬ cided a 7-6 pigskin tilt against the Indiana State reserves in the frosh’s favor. Frank Ryan won the class presidency; his brother, Des, was vice-president; Paul Steigmeyer, treasurer; and Elmer Molchan, secretary. Ten freshmen entered at semester time; the frosh cage team swept to four victories in six games, far better than the varsity. The frosh speech title went to George Kuhn. As sophs, the class of ’54 chose Ray Pfriem, president, with Bill Zimmer, Bob Gallagher, and Pat Evard assisting him. Buel Adams assumed his duties as editor of Stuff, while the whole class began the annual torture of the lowly frosh—a class three times as large as the persecutors. The initiators combined with the initiated in February to sponsor the first annual” under¬ classman dance in the rec hall. The big triumph of the ’54-ers came when Hugh McAvoy and Pat Evard, both sophs, won the two top posts in the Student Council eletcions. For their junior year, Paul Steigmeyer was leader, with Ed Linskey, George Smolar, and Vince Agnew as fellow officers. Early work on the Prom began under George Kuhn, in preparation for the big social event of the year. Dick Kotheimer starred in a CP production, with Buel Adams and Joe Walinchus also acting in the plays. The Prom plans progressed as the second semester opened with the object being the biggest, best, and brightest Prom ever. Page fifty-one SEIFERT HALL One hall, two divisions—that’s Seifert. Honoring the name of St. Joseph’s first president, this underclassman hall is located on the far west end of the campus. Two segments hold forth in this edifice—the East Seifert and the West Seifert side. East is predominantly sophomore-infested, but a liberal sprinkling of freshmen dot the building in a few secluded spots. West is the freshman’s big hall; here the sophs are in a minority. Seifert is one of the newest campus residence halls, and the one most desired by the incoming frosh. Page fifty-two Sophomore officers are: President James Zid, Secretary Harold Pennington, Treasurer Samuel Governale, and Vice-President John Donnelly, SOPHOMORES Halfway between his baby days and adulthood, the sophomore is a puzzling sight. His education has barely started; the impishness of his initial year has ended; he realizes that he will have a long and difficult row to hoe, but he cannot yet reconcile himself to a life of intense preparation. He pre¬ fers to to take one last fling. The sophomore year is a most decisive one. If he perseveres and weathers its stormy course, he has an excellent chance of becoming a college graduate, for in the following year the sophomore enters upon his chosen major field. In the light of his education as a whole man, the soph is in the midst of a learning process. Most of the fundamentals have been drilled into him, and it is more or less the refinements of a whole man that have yet to be instilled. He will learn these throughout the course of his final two years in college. A period of awakening is the sophomore year. His future duties and ob¬ ligations begin to become apparent; the copious amount of work required for some tasks, once believed simple, now is evident. He sees that there is more to his job of preparing to earn a living than he had previously thought. His ideals are beginning to come alive.

When they had all been properly herded and counted, their number reach¬ ed an aggregate of 260-plus. Considering that there were but sixty sophomores that year, initiation was comparatively easy for the new collegiates. Chuck Lenertz celebrated the new life by waxing his room with apple cider in a bottle mix-up; early-bird actors were Dallas Kelsey, Emerson Strace, Don Schlader, John Kelly, John Good, Terry MacCarthy, and Gerry Gladu. The freshmen staged an eight-week presidential campaign, with John Gor¬ man eventually struggling to the title, defeating Tiger McCabe, Don Merki, Vince Colletti, Ron Favorite, John Donnelly, and Jim Sloan. Frosh cheer¬ leaders were Dan Mungo van, Ray Sarlitto, and Bob Nall. Starring on the academic rolls were Dean’s Listmen, Bill Barrett, Dick Bender, Ed Byrne, Bill Feely, John Madell, and Al Lazur. About forty of the class of ’5 5 took the Selective Service Qualification Test during their first year in an attempt to obtain a deferment. Playing varsity basketball their first year were Don Merki, Chet Pilat, Willie Kellogg, and Bob Houk. Ed Kafka and Bob Shanley were half of St. Joe’s Glee Club quartet. The saddest moment for the class was probably that late April morning when their fellow freshman, Chet Tokarz, drowned while boating in the gravel pits on the southwest side of the college grounds; he had just that day completed a retreat along with fifty high school seniors and juniors. He was the only St. Joe man to have done so. Just before tearing home for their first summer vacation, the frosh nom¬ inated Jim Zid as their president-to-be. Sam Governale, Harold Pennington, and John Donnelly also won posts. Ed Byrne won another honor (and fifty dollars) by copping the Pursley Memorial literary award. The next year, the initiated turned initiator and poured on the punish¬ ment. New names on the Dean’s List were Bob Jones, Ed Joyce, and Gerry Walke. Ron Gambia donned the president’s mantle in the College Band, with Bruce Woods, Gerry Rammel, and Jerry Blaesing acting on the advisory board. John Donnelly in his second year won the football most valuable player” award. Frank Holzer took over as NFCCS Science Commission chair¬ man. And Willie Kellogg, in a brilliant final quarter, literally snatched a 75-73 win from Valparaiso to boost the Puma basketeers into an ICC first-place tie. Page sixty-one CASPAR HALL Its age and venerableness often desecrated by the shouts of unminding freshman, Caspar Hall stands as a symbol of the early foundations of St. Joseph’s. One of the oldest buildings in Collegeville, the hall has been home for many a St. Joe man, faculty member and student alike. L ast year, a complete renovation of the edifice enhanced its internal beauty. The modern infringement of oak paneling and bright wallpaper upon its sturdy walls might well represent old Caspar’s attempt to keep pace with its youthful occupants. Page sixty-two Freshman Class Officers are: Secretary Charles Wiles, Treasurer Ronald Aygarn, President Joseph Maher, Vice-President Edward O’Rourke. FRESHMEN The newcomer to college life—a fantastic type of existence—is the fresh¬ man. On his own for the first time in his life, the frosh is both bewildered and exhilarated by his new-found independence. Now his life is his to handle; he is his own manager. Or so he thinks, until the rude facts of ex¬ perience begin to stare him in the face. Then comes the test. The strong- willed frosh who has true control over himself will adjust his desires to fit those of society; the weak-willed will continue to go against the grain and will succumb. The education of a freshman is largely a mass production activity. Certain basic principles must be inculcated in him before any attempt is made to educate him more thoroughly. True, he is given tastes of the other aspects of education, but these smatterings do not begin to match the intense efforts which will later be applied to him. The freshman year is primarily a year of weeding out the suitable from the unsuitable. Most of this occurs as a natural event. The misfits will automatically drop out of the college sphere, leaving only those who can take it still as members. And so it is that the frosh enters St. Joseph’s, wide-eyed with expectation, into a strange new world of activity, a proving ground for abilities as a pros¬ pective whole man.

FRESHMAN FILES Two hundred freshmen were among those present as the ’52-’53 college year began. The initiation story was usual except that this year’s frosh ended it two days earlier by nipping a green beanie off a greased pole, much to the consternation of a group of gentlemen known as sophomores. Early nominees in the presidential race were Joe Maher and Ron Aygarn. Soon to follow them were Mike Churosh, Tony Lombardo, Dick Obergfell, and John White. Maher won by a close margin. Aiding him on the class officer list were Ed O’Rourke, Chuck Wiles, and Aygarn. The new interhall committee boasted two frosh—Leo Nurrenbern and Tim Stivers. First of the class on the Dean’s List were Marv Hackman, Joe Barnett, Gerry Caron, Ben Gulassa, and Roger Decker. Aiding the popular swing band were Joe Maher, Fred Stucker, and Gordon Harvey. Taking part in CP plays were frosh Roger Peterka, Dick Para, and Jack Carlson, while classmates Tim O’Brien, Marv Hackman, Ed O’Rourke, Bernie Horn, Bob Daley, and Bill Mitchell starred on the basketball court. Page sixty-nine Page seventy During the summer of 1951, announce¬ ment was made in churches throughout the Calumet region of the opening of an extension by St. Joseph’s in Hammond. This extension, the Calumet Center, threw open, its doors that September to ninety- eight students and has continued in its growth ever since. Located in the new wing of Bishop Noll High School in Hammond, the extension began with a twelve-course schedule. Since then, the number of offerings has doubled. Classes are held in the high school every evening Monday through Friday and on Saturday mornings. Upper picture: Camera catches students as they leave Saturday morning classes. Lower picture: The Basic Oil Painting class in session. CALUMET CENTER Teaching the extension courses are mem¬ bers of the local faculty as well as outstand¬ ing Catholic laymen in the Gary-Ham- mond-Chicago region. Approximately thir¬ ty instructors are included on the exten¬ sion’s teaching staff. The present director of the Calumet Center is the Rev. James I. Birkley, form¬ erly an instructor in English at St. Joseph’s. Father Birkley succeeded the or¬ iginal director, the Rev. Henry J. Martin. Director Rev. James Birkley, confers with mem¬ bers of the faculty. Fathers Edwin Kaiser and Ernest Lucas. Spanish class holds Christmas Party in St. John’s Panel Room, Whiting, Indiana EXTENSION Calumet Center holds first student mixer Page seventy-one m mm f m The social aspect of a college education is a much maligned thing. Many overemphasize it and attend college for the sole purpose of conducting one big party; others look upon it with scorn and sneeringly remark that social life has no place on a serious-minded campus. St. Joseph’s tries to strike the well-known happy medium. Social events are definitely encouraged, but never so much as to interfere with the higher ideals of a Catholic education. Most active in social activities on campus is the Student Council, which sponsors many dances, mixers, and other events to ease somewhat the tedium of book-learning chores. Every year, some ten or twelve dances are held at Collegeville with nearby girls’ colleges, with return engagements as a general rule. These reciprocal agreements solve the social problems of two colleges. Puma athletic teams are followed literally as well as figuratively. Numerous student trips to sports meets away from home are scheduled by the Council in its attempt at an all-over social program. Funds for these events and activ¬ ities are provided by a Student Union assessment of five dollars a student per semester. The Council is a self-financing group and draws all its financial requirements out of this fund. Other than these strictly social events, the many clubs and their activities provide ample opportunity for the student to work in conjunction with others in promoting projects and in staging student productions. Serving as a club officer provides vital experience in the handling of responsibility. The club system at St. Joseph’s embraces virtually all fields of study and many extracurricular ventures. To the student who desires a deeper know¬ ledge of his major field, or added experience in dramatics, music, or journal¬ ism, the clubs hold out unlimited opportunities. Certain social events are traditional at St. Joseph’s. These include the two biggest dances—Junior Prom and Homecoming—Parents’ Day and, of course. Graduation Day. During these times, the college takes on a festive air appropriate to the day itself. The basic body of social life on campus is the Student Union—literally, the entire student body. Governed by the Student Council, it expands through several committees, clubs, halls, and classes down to its smallest unit, the individual student, to whom special attention is directed in educating the social side of the whole man.

BAND Music for college athletic events and two concerts throughout the year are the contribtution of the college band. The red and white provide the spark of victory in many cases. Their repertoire ranges from classical overtures to marches and modern novelties. A segment of the band has consolidated itself as the college swing band and provides the music for many of the local social mixers. Page eighty-eight GLEE CLUB HK Perhaps the campus organization known most widely in the immediate vicinity and throughout the area they have visited, is the college Glee Club. Building from virtually nothing two years ago, the organization now has reached such a peak that it is spoken of in the same breath as similar clubs at such schools as Notre Dame. Performance constantly bring requests for return engagements, and the club is always happy to ob¬ lige. Much of the group’s prosperity can be given its mod¬ erator, Father Lawrence Heiman, who has nurtured the glee- men and contributed unlimited amounts of his energy and time.

WM:i THE BIG WEEK END In the fjill, a young college student’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of flying pigskins and runners whizzing past gridiron stripes. King Football reigns throughout the whole season, but is especially honored at Homecoming time. During the week end of October 10-12, 1952, Puma fans saw their favorites tangle with the Indiana State Sycamores, only to bow in defeat. All was not sad, however, as the Homecoming Dance, sponsored by the Monogram Club and led by queen Connie Colletti, attracted a majority of the football-minded College- ville metropolis. The winning float The Homecoming Dance with Tim O’Brien and Miro Pregelj in the foreground. Prior to the game, a parade through Rensselaer featured floats by each hall. Xavier’s Fatima float won the award plaque. HOMECOMING CAMPUS MIXERS Social activity on the Collegeville scene received a shot in the arm from the Student Council elected in April, 1952. Running on a platform of in¬ creased dances and other promised goodies, the winners, aided by a Student Union fee approved by the administration, inaugurated a twice- a-month dance schedule, with the enthusiastic approval of the under¬ graduates. Bingo give-aways were also in¬ stituted as the Council began devising clever schemes to give the money back to the student in the form of cash, portable typewriters, and en¬ tertainment.

Page mnety-five An Evening in Paris” without leaving the Indiana prairies was accomplished by the class of ’5 3 last May when they sponsored the annual Prom. Dick Carlton waved his baton while the orchestra bear¬ ing his name played for the 175 couples who thronged the rejuvenated fieldhouse. Formal dress was the order of the day, and the floor was covered with swirling tuxedos and billowing gowns. Some of the fun of that memorable evening is pictured here through the magic of the camera. Waiters for the evening were, kneeling: Don Gorman, Bill Ferguson, John O’Hara, Don Nilles. Standing: Roland Meinert, Don Nowicki, Gerald Wenzel, Bill Run. IN PARIS Father Kroeckel, Wilkie Chung, Jim Brennan (top left), George Kuhn (top right), Robert Hummel (lower left), and Gene Ziemba (lower right) show science exhibits to Parents’ Day visitors. PARENTS’ DAY After all the effort the parents of St. Joe students expend in sending their pride and joy to Collegeville, it is only fitting that the Dads and Moms take over the campus at least one day each year to prove to themselves that their money is being spent for something worthy. This day is Parents’ Day—the first Sunday in May. At this time, St. Joe dons its finery, the college band polishes its instruments, and the Glee Club brings out the atomizers once again to fete the most deserving set of parents anyone has ever seen— their own. Page ninety-six GRADUATION This is you again.. And you’re trodding St. Joe ground, just as you did four years ago. Only now there’s a difference. Now you’re about to leave; your college days are over; you’re on your way into the world. This is graduation. Page ninety-seven FOOTBALL BASEBALL Football at St. Joseph’s College plays an important part in the fall .curriculum of the student. A Saturday or Sunday afternoon will most likely find Puma followers watching their favorites play ball. Win or lose, the spirit and loyalty of the student body is always present. Trips to nearby cities are sponsored by the Student Council so that the team will have backing for their games. The Pumas are members of both the Indiana Collegiate Conference and the Midlands Con¬ ference, facing members in both football and basketball. The current year, however, saw St. Joseph’s deciding to withdraw from the Midlands Conference at the conclusion of the 1953-54 season, the better to concentrate upon the ICC. The latter promises plenty of competition in the future with the probable addition of DePauw and Wabash. BASKETBALL Indiana has long been known as the center of the nation as far as basketball enthusiasm goes, and St. Joe fits well into this picture. The emergence of this year’s team to the top of the tough Indiana Collegiate Conference had the entire student body out in force as they cheered the Pumas on to many a close victory. The Indiana Collegiate Conference, one of the toughest small college groups in the midwest, offers such formidable foes as Butler, Indiana State, Valparaiso, Ball State and Evansville. The Midlands Conference also affords rugged com¬ petition with such teams as St. Ambrose, St. Norbert, Loras, and Lewis. Student interest in the cage sport reached a new high this year as some 275 participants played some sort of basketball. This includes the varsity, junior varsity, and intramurals. With the coming of spring, the baseball diamond becomes the center of sports activity on the campus. Varsity baseball competition is continued with Indiana Conference foes, but not with the Midlands. The schedule usually includes about 20 games. INTRAMURALS The intramural program at St. Joe is one of the finest and most diversified in the Midwest. Offerings in the fall include tennis, an elimina¬ tion round of softball, volleyball and touch football. In the winter, basketball takes over. Also a bowling league has been organized, with the Maple Lanes, located at the north end of the campus, being the center of activity. In the spring, softball, volleyball, and tennis round out the program. The intramural softball program offers op¬ portunities in both the 12 and 16 leagues. The best players in the 12 league are picked as the school’s representatives for a Newman Club tournament held at Turkey Run State Park. The feature of the IM program is the annual extramural meet, which brings together the champions from the five Midlands Conference schools. Competition is held in basketball, volleyball, ping-pong, and bowling. In addition, the best weekly bowlers in the leagu e may participate in extramural bowling with teams from DePaul, Loyola, Notre Dame, and Valparaiso. This series is held every week end. Page nmety-nine BRAINS AND BRAWN Head Coach Gene Fetter began his third season as mentor of St. Joseph’s Pumas in the fall of 1952. His backfield assistant was Mr. Richard F. Scharf, who served as head coach for four years before Mr. Fetter’s arrival. On hand to assist the linemen was Gerald Wenzel, who earned three letters at center before com¬ pleting his eligibility. The Rev. Edward M. Roof, former Puma athlete and present tennis coach, has been athletic di¬ rector at St. Joseph’s since 1937.

The 1952 St. Joe football team limped through its rugged schedule on nine successive week ends without attaining a victory, although they managed a tie in the last game of the season against Lewis. Injuries played a major role to help account for such a disastrous season. Eighteen varsity players missed one or more games because of injuries. Of these, eight were lettermen from the 1951 squad. Things did not look so bad at the start of the season when head Coach Gene Fetter welcomed back fifteen lettermen. A lot more had vital game ex¬ perience behind them, and after landing second place in the Indiana Col¬ legiate Conference the previous season, the Pumas had high hopes for this year too. But as the season progressed, it became apparent that this wasn’t St. Joe’s year. The players fought hard through every game, only to lose to foes that seemed to have everything go right for them. One of the chief reasons for the victory-less season, along with injuries, was the failure of St. Joe to generate a ground attack. It was never a threat at any time, and the Pumas had to go through the air to gain yardage. A charging Puma and a sprawl¬ ing teammate gang up to stop a St. Ambrose Bee just short of a goal line in the second game of the season. The referee seems to think it’s time to get out of the way. Hold that Bulldog,” seems to be Captain George Riggs’s battle cry, as he just manages to trip up this Butler runner in a last-ditch lunge. THE BRIGHTER SIDE . . . MUST BE A WAY! Among the concerned are: cheerleaders Donald Prusak, and George Kuhn; Coach Gene Fetter is about to call upon the educated toe of Tom Schnieders.

St. Joe opened the season by absorbing a 56-0 pasting at the hands of the Loras Duhawks. Playing before a large Dubuque crowd, the Duhawks got more than a little re¬ venge for their one-point setback at the hands of the Pumas the year before, as they scored two touchdowns in every quarter to achieve their lop-sided victory. Five of the scores came via the air. Injuries to end Joe Pindell, tackle Fred Handler, and halfback Bob Lavender added to the Pumas’ woes. The following Sunday, St. Joe showed marked improve¬ ment, although they dropped a 24-6 decision to St. Am¬ brose. The addition of Jim Righeimer, Hal Pennington and John Thorpe helped, but the Bees rolled to victory with a ground attack that netted a total of 423 yards. St. Joe gain¬ ed 145 yards passing and scored their lone touchdown on a 79-yard pass from Zimmer to Pindell. At Valparaiso, St. Joe trailed the Crusaders by only six points at halftime. The Pumas had scored on a pass from Paonessa to end Frank Socha late in the second period. But as the third quarter wore on, the Valpo ground attack and inopportune penalties swelled the score to 32-7 before St. Joe dented the scoring column again. This occurred in the closing minutes when fullback Don Gorman plunged over from the 3-yard line. Valpo had won its twenty-sixth straight game. Page one hundred three The sparks that light the fire: Maureen Sullivan, Ronald Bomba, Margaret O’Neill, Donald Prusak, Marlene Mushaw, Tim Stivers, Virginia Kinny. The girls are from St. Mary-of-the-Woods College. GAME BY GAME . . . In the traditional Homecoming battle, St. Joe got off to a 3-0 lead over Indiana State, as sophomore Jerry Walke booted a 24-yard field goal in the first quarter. The Sycamores, however, took over and completely dominated the last three quarters. Two second-period scores, one on a 60-yard run, gave Indiana State a 14-3 lead. This was increased to the final 21-3 on a six-yard pass play in the last period. Afterwards Roland Meinert was awarded the annual Lincoln trophy as the most valuable player in the Home¬ coming game. Butler Bulldogs were next to take it out on the Pumas, the score being 3 3-0. Butler got off to a good start as their safetyman took Schnieder’s first punt and raced 78 yards untouched to put the Bulldogs on the trail. A devastating ground attack produced the rest of the scores as the boys from Indianapolis ground out 393 yards. Ball State’s Cardinals had a rough time the first three quarters as the Pumas trailed only 7-6 entering the last period. St. Joe scored their touchdown in the third quarter on a pass from Bill Zimmer to Clayton Klein, but Walke’s kick was partially blocked. The fatal last quarter saw the Cardinals score once on the ground and again on a 19-yard pass play. The Evansville Aces built up a 27-0 first quarter lead and then coasted to a 41-20 victory over St. Joe. The Puma scores came on two Zimmer-to-Effing passes and a one-yard plunge by Gorman that climaxed an 82-yard drive. St. Joe played fine ball in the last half, but the 34-6 halftime lead was too much to overcome. In the final home game for the Pumas, St. Norbert’s climaxed a perfect season as they rolled over St. Joe to the tune of 26-0. The victory also gave the Green Knights the Midlands Conference championship. The 14-14 tie with Lewis in the final game was a battle all the way, St. Joe took a 14-7 lead when Gorman scored on a short smash over the middle and Paonessa passed 3 8 yards to Ram¬ irez. The Flyers came back strong in the final period to tie the count and were denied victory in the closing seconds only when Louie Schager made a leaping inter¬ ception near the Puma end zone. Tom Van Acker, heap no fire! Page one hundred four MOST VALUABLE PLAYER John Donnelly, sophomore linebacker from Lancaster, Pa., was named the most val¬ uable player on the 1952 St. Joseph’s squad, according to a vote of his teammates. Donnelly, who won a let¬ ter in his freshman year as a guard and linebacker, play¬ ed almost entirely on defense during the past season as a linebacker. However, he was called upon to play offensive center in the last game of the season against Lewis, and he turned in a brilliant 60- minute performance. John was one of the few Pumas who came through the season without suffering any injury. This is remarkable in itself PUNTING SPECIALIST Tom Schnieders, as punt specialist for the Pumas during his three years on the varsity squad, was called upon to pull St. Joe out of many a tight spot. Tom usually responded with a kick sailing far downfield. It seemed he was best when the going got the roughest, something which occurred quite often during the 1952 season. Tom’s best year was his last, when he booted 60 times for a total of 2304 yards. During his three years he kicked for a total of 5648 yards. His best day was against Indiana State during the past season when he was called upon to kick nine times and responded with a 44-yard plus average. I Besides achieving a high ranking as a punter in the Mid¬ lands and Indiana Collegiate Conferences, Schnieders was also used effectively as an offensive end by Coach Gene Fetter. JOHN DONNELLY considering the time he played and the fact that he stands only 5 ' 11 ' ' and weighs but 170 pounds. His number 30” was a familiar sight at the bottom of St. Joe tackles, primarily because of his unusual ability to diagnose plays and stop those coming in his direction. TOM SCHNIEDERS -JT; PLAY BY PLAY Making the stop on this St. Norbert’s halfback are Clayton Klein and Tom Paonessa, who is hanging on to a foot from his position on the ground. Captain George Riggs (40) and Dave Krigbaum (20) stay on the prowl just in case. Aw come on fellows, cut it out!” pleads the hemmed-in Evansville Ace. But Jerry Cou¬ ture (53), Pete Fenlon (39), and Dave Krigbaum (20) won’t listen. John White (33) and Tom Mahoney (52)haul in more beef. Merle Effing finds himself all alone in the Evansville end zone as he takes a touchdown heave from Bill Zimmer. Hey, quit shovin’! I saw it first! - Pete Fanlon looks to stand a fair chance of outracing all four Ball Staters for this stray pig. PLAY BY PLAY You hit ’im high, an’ I’ll hit ’im low,” says 76 to 23; and St. Joe’s hard-running full¬ back Don Gorman bites the dust in the Homecoming tilt against Indiana State. A Ball State defender barely manages to tip a touchdown pass from the eager arms of Merle Effing, who would have taken this scoring flip sitting down. Clayton Klein goes high in the air to make this over-the- shoulder catch as three Ball State defenders make a frantic leap to knock down the perfect¬ ly aimed aerial. Dave Krigbaum is also downfield for the play and is about to catch a State player in his lap. Where do we go from here, Don? Those three determined Bees seem to know—down. Maybe Donnelly (30) could help if you want to turn around and go the other way. COACH AND SENIORS Coach Dick Scharf, in his third year as Puma coach, faced a tough 24-game sched¬ ule. On hand, he had seven lettermen and a fine group of freshmen from which to choose his varsity members. By season’s end he had molded them into a winning unit with a season’s mark of 14-10. Chosen Captain and most valuable player for the second straight year. Jack Dwyer re¬ tires from the hardwood floor after break¬ ing the all-time scoring record at St. Joe by tallying 1078 points in four years. Jack, the first player to go over a thousand points in Puma history, was at his best when the going got the roughest and was the steading factor on the squad all year. He was chosen All- Catholic All-American in the district. Boyd Reutebuch appeared to be having his greatest year with the varsity until he suffered a broken arm in the home game against Loras. He did not get back into action. Coach Scharf had counted on his services, and his loss was felt as the season progressed. Butch” was appointed honorary co-captain for the final game with Valpo. Bill Elbert, senior from Jack Dwyer Boyd Reutebuch Coach Richard Scharf Goodland, Ind., had his best season in his last year as he scored 268 points. His finest game was against Butler at home as he led the Pumas to their greatest victory of the season. In this encounter, he poured 21 points through the hoop, most of them in the last half. Bill was also a fine rebounder, ranking high in the ICC figures.

The 6 ' 4 center-forward had his best night against Wabash as he hit for 27, tops for Puma scorers for the season. In addition, Don had the best shooting average from the field as he connected on 124 shots out of 265 for a mark of .462. Merk,” only in his second year, was especially hard to handle under the boards, always rebounding well. Willie Kellogg, the pint-sized guard who also played his second year on the start¬ ing five, was known primarily for his work on defense until the final game. Then Willie came into his own as a scorer, breaking the backs of Valpo’s Crusaders by registering 12 of his 21-point total in the last quarter to bring the ICC crown to St. Joe. He finished the year with 212 points. Bill Gehring is another Puma sopho¬ more who played fine ball for St. Joe this year. A good rebounder. Bill saw service in 17 games and was certainly one of the most improved members on the varsity. Bernie Boff, Coach Scharf’s sixth” man, came in at various points in the season to give the Pumas the extra lift they needed to achieve victory. Able to hook with either hand and hard to move out when it came to rebounding, Bernie pulled the Pumas within striking distance in the Wabash home game as he hooked Bill Gehring Bernie Boff Don Merki Willie Kellogg successfully in the final seconds to send the game into overtime. He was also the spark in the Lewis game, scoring 16 points. Tim O’Brien took over where Butch” Reutebuch left off and teamed up with Kellogg to give the Pumas a real outside” scoring threat. But O’Brien’s most im¬ portant shot all year did not come from out. It was a driving lay-in that occurred in the final seconds of the Evansville game to give St. Joe a thrilling 85-84 win. Tim is only a freshman and should im¬ prove over a fine first year. Although Chet Pilat played only the second semester, he turned in creditable performances whenever he got his chance. Another second year man, Chet should have a good year next season. Tim O’Brien Chet Pilat FRONT UNB HOOP HIGHLIGHTS From the viewpoint of the spectators the season was made to order. Of the thirteen games on the home court, the Pumas dropped only two—both by one point. Of the total twenty-four games, nine were decided by four points or less, to say nothing of the spine-tingling double overtime with Wabash. St. Joe came from behind time after time with last-minute rallies that left Puma followers hoarse from yelling, and in two instances the irrepressible student body carried their victorious team and coach off the floor on their shoulders. Indeed, it was the type of season that was as heartening to watch as it must have been to play. The outstanding game of the year was undoubtedly the one against Butler, a team whom St. Joe had never beaten and who had recorded victories earlier in the year over three of six Big Ten opponents. Trailing 36-25 at halftime and off the mark in their shooting, the Pumas came back with a second-half surge that is sure to go down in the annals of St. Joe athletic history as one of the greatest. Don Merki and Bill Elbert started to hit every¬ thing they threw basket-ward and quickly the gap closed. With two minutes left in the third quarter, Willie Kellogg sent a shot through the hoop and St. Joe was ahead 48-46. This lead they never re¬ linquished. The final count rose to 72-57 as the coach and team were carried off the floor amid bedlam seldom before seen or heard at St. Joe. The last game of the year, played against Valpo at Collegeville will also linger in the minds of many for a long time. With a hard-fought 66-64 win over the Crusaders four days before, and the coveted title within their grasp, it looked as though everything was lost as Valpo led 71-64 with about two min¬ utes to go. But the Pumas fought as they had never fought before with Willie Kel¬ logg taking charge by accounting for the last seven points in a rally that nudged their arch-rivals 75-73. Again the players and coach were hoisted to the shoulders of their delirious followers. After their ICC win over Butler the Pumas had seemed due for a letdown, but their very next game saw them catch fire and overtake a fighting band of Wabash Cavemen just at the end of the regulation time with a hooksho t by Bernie Boff that knotted the count at 64-all. In the first overtime both teams scored ten points, but St. Joe took charge in the next five minutes, final score being 94-81.

Jack Dwyer lays one up against Butler. The Loras Duhawks broke a four-game winning streak for the Pumas early in the season by edging the Scharfmen 71-70 in the final seconds after St. Joe had led all the way. It was in this game that Senior Boyd Reutebuch met with an ac¬ cident that was to bench him for the rest of the season. Up until this time it had looked like Butch’s season,” judging from his performances in practice and in the first three encounters. The only other loss the Pumas suffered at home was another one-point decision, this time to a Great Lakes team that had come to the fieldhouse supporting a 22-1 record. It took them a tremendous last quarter surge to conquer St. Joe 70-69. They were sparked by Carl McNulty, ex-Purdue All-American. But Collegeville fans still had something to yell about. It was in this game that Jack Dwyer scored his 1000th point, the first Puma ever to reach that mark. Left Picture: Play with Lewis is about to resume.

Page one hundred thirteen Bill Elbert takes a shot against St. Nor- bert as Jack Dwyer and Tim O’Brien watch and wait for the ball to come off the board. Along the trail to their Indiana Con¬ ference crown St. Joe split with Butler, Indiana State, and Evansville. The win they achieved over Evansille’s Aces can be awarded to the efforts of Tim O’Brien. With four minutes to go, St. Joe was trail¬ ing 77-71; with less than a minute l eft, it was 84-83. Then came O’Brien’s heroics. As the clock ticked off the waning sec¬ onds, he drove through a maze of players for the winning basket and an 8 5-84 vic¬ tory. Another second-half push gave the Pumas a win at Ball State. They trailed 45-36 after two periods of play but caught fire in the third period and closed in on the Cardinals, largely on the shoot¬ ing and rebounding of Don Merki. The game was nip and tuck in the last period, with St. Joe finally winning 78-72. The return engagement provided even more thrills as the two teams came down to the wire tied at 75-all with 90 seconds re¬ maining. The Pumas then scored five straight points, three by Willie Kellogg, which proved to be just enough. Left Picture: Willie Kellogg takes one of his spectacular jump shots at Wabash. Middle Picture: Bill Gehring autographs Boyd Reutebuch’s cast as Bill Elbert awaits his turn. Right Picture: Now where did I put that ball? In Midlands competition St. Joe fin¬ ished with a 3-5 record dropping two decisions to Loras, and one each to St. Ambrose, St. Norbert, and Lewis. In the loss to St. Norbert’s 91-77, Don Merki scored 2 5 points to surpass the one-season scoring record of 364 set by Neal Mosser in 1941. The 59-52 win achieved over St. Am¬ brose was the lowest team total for the Pumas all year as they amassed 1746 points to break the previous high of 1452 points in one season. The third game of the season for St. Joe found them up against St. Norbert. Bill Elbert played one of his finest games in this tilt as he gar¬ nered 20 points and sparkled on defense as St. Joe nipped the Green Knights 70-68. Their subsequent 74-66 conquest of Lewis gave them a momentary 3-1 Midlands Conference record, but the Pumas drop¬ ped their remaining four games in con¬ ference play, all on the road, to finish in the Midlands’ cellar. But nobody seemed to care about that —the Pumas of 1953 were co-champs of the ICC, one of the toughest small-col¬ lege leagues in the Midwest.

Page one hundred fifteen BASEBALL Coach Jim Beane in his first year at the helm of the St. Joe baseball nine found his proposed 14-game schedule cut to only seven games as the rains came. Of the games played, the Pumas had one win, five losses, and a tie. Highlights of the abrupt season were the fine pitching of Wally Rattay and the power hitting of Ralph Meyer (.423), Bob Wasni (.375), and George Smolar (.348). Even though the Pumas did not win an Indiana Collegiate Conference game, they managed to walk off with the batting championship. Jim Beane’s crew started their season with a 9-1 victory over Chicago Uni¬ versity as Wally Rattay spun a beautiful three-hitter. The second game was an 8-8 tie with Wabash that was halted because of darkness after ten innings. Then came a 15-10 slugfest with Valpo on Prom day as both teams had their hitting clothes on. After that St. Joe went on the road and took their worst beating of the season as Indiana State whipped them 7-1. Valpo rallied in the late innings to nudge the Pumas 5-4 on the Valpo dia¬ mond. The final game went to Chicago as the Maroons came up with five runs in the last half of the ninth. 1953 Puma Baseball Roster: Don Normandt, Bill Daly, Maurice Garvey, Bill Schulte, Bob Lavender, Ralph Meyer, Boyd Reutebuch, Bob Wasni, George Smolar, Joe Pin- dell, Jim Couture, Don Merki, and Coach James Beane.

Father Edward Roof, Coach A youthful St. Joe tennis team struggled through a rain-soaked season, unable to crash the victory column. The closest they came to a win was a 4-3 setback at the hands of Indiana State. In this match freshmen George Craft and Leo Hornett each won their single matches and then combined to whip the Sycamore doubles team. The Puma netters earned entrance points in the Indiana Collegiate Confer- ance meet held at Butler, but they failed to win any matches.

Coach Gene Fetter attempted to revive a track team at St. Joe after an absence of many years, and although enthusiasm was shown by the team, the best they could do was to score four points in a triangular meet with Valparaiso and Ball State. In their other meet of the season they failed to score against Valpo and Butler. The Pumas did not enter either the Indiana Collegiate Conference track meet or the Little State meet. TRACK I In five tries in 1952 the Puma golf team failed to win a match, but they showed promise as the season went on. First, they finished third in a triangular meet with Indiana State and Valpo, and then scored but 5 V 2 points to Chicago University’s 9V2 in their second match. In their third outing, the linksters finished second with 12V points in a tri¬ angular meet with Indiana State and Indiana Central. State won the meet with a score of 18. The Pumas then dropped an 11-1 match to Valpo and finished eleventh in a field of thirteen in the Little State with a score of 693.

The Gaels, led by Captain Pat Carr, won the first round handily but were eliminated in the second round by the Brewers, who in turn were nudged by the Indians 6-0. During the entire season, only one team failed to win at least one game.

BOWLING SOFTBALL AND OTHERS INTRAMURALS The softball champions in the 12 league last.year were the Clovers, captain¬ ed by Bill Kun. They fin¬ ished the season with a 7-0 record. In the 16 league, most of the games were washed out, with the result that four teams tied for first place. Players in this intramural softball game are: Harry Kapalczynski Chester Tokarz, Joe Miller, and Robert L. O’Connor. A team largely composed of members from the Clovers won the Newman Club trophy in the tournament held at Turkey Run. St. Joe beat Ball State, Indiana State, and Purdue in the final game for the championship. Largely responsible for the Puma triumph was the fine pitching of freshman John Clark. Al Gallo acted as captain. A shuffleboard tournament, ping-pong singles and doubles, and volleyball playoffs are also included in the intramural pro¬ gram.
