Page 2 To the Reverend Francis J. O ' Hern, S.L for his many years of devoted serv- ice to the students and alumni of the University; for his wise and sympathetic counsel; for his unheralded benefactions which have made higher education pos- sible for many; for his sage guidance of the Conclave and the Department of Athletics, we respectfully and gratefully dedicate this the nineteen forty-eight Archive. Father O ' Hern ' s office is always open to students. The 1948 Archive is an attempt to present an over- view of the activities of the past school year. It at- tempts to survey the classroom, athletic field, and extra- curricular activities of the University and its students in this the University ' s biggest year.

William Louis Dubourg was consecrated Bishop of Upper and Lower Louisiana, which included the present state of Missouri, and in January, 1818, he began a temporary residence in St. Louis, then a strug- gling frontier town. In November, of that year, Fr. Dubourg opened a Latin Academy connected with his humble Cathedral Church, which be- came St. Louis College in 1820. It was conducted by the secular clergy. Their clerical duties, however, absorbed so much of their time, that the College was finally discontinued in 1827. In 1823, Bishop Dubourg had visited Wash- ington and the secretary of war, John C. Cal- houn, in a project for educating the children of Indian tribes roaming through his vast diocese. Mr. Calhoun suggested that the Jesuit Fathers of Georgetown College, District of Columbia, be invited to furnish some of their faculty to settle in Missouri and found missions and schools among the Indians. As a result, a band of 12 Jesuits, 2 priests, 7 scholastics, and 3 lay broth- ers set out from Whitemarsh in Maryland. A day or two later they established themselves in three log cabins situated on a farm donated by Bishop Dubourg near the present town of Florissant. After four years of teaching the children of the Indians, even the white families began send- ing their children to the Indian Seminary, for want of better school accommodations. The courtyard entrance to Clemens Hall, the new Dormitory te2 ' fa ? ' i About the same time a desire was generally- expressed among the people of St. Louis, and throughout the state that the Jesuit fathers should not confine their efforts to the Indians, among whom little permanent good was likely to be effected, but should open a college in St. Louis. Bishop Rosati, who had succeeded Bishop Dubourg, concurring in this view, trans- ferred to the Jesuits a lot on Ninth street and Christy (now Lucas) Avenue, which had been donated by a Catholic gentleman. The new building was not quite completed when its doors were opened and classes begun in it on November 2, 1829. The general assembly of Missouri, in 1832, granted the new institution a rather unliberal charter, and its name was changed to the St. Louis University, to replace the former title of the Indian Seminary. The first president, and actual founder of the University, was the Rev. P. J. Verhaegen, S.J., who had a principal part in planning the institu- tion and arranging its system of studies. As he continued in office until 1836, the division of classes and studies made by him, as also his theory of collegiate education, were firmly estab- lished before the close of his term. When he was elevated to a higher position in 1836, being appointed superior of the Jesuit Mission in Mis- souri, he still continued to exercise a directive and controlling influence over the University, and it thus happened that he left his impression upon the University, which was discernible long after he ceased to exercise any positive duties.

Elet, S.J., subsequently vice-pro- vincial of the Jesuits in Missouri; and the Rev. J. F. Van Assche, S.J. In 183 1, the faculty was re-enforced by the very scholarly Rev. James Van de Velde, S.J., who, at a later date, became Bishop of Natchez, Miss. The original College Church and Saint Louis Academy. Page 1 As stated previously, classes were begun at the College on November 2, 1829, and during that month 30 boarders and 120 day pupils were registered. Thenceforth the number of students, especially boarders, steadily increased, and when the institution became known in the South, the sons of rich planters especially in Louisiana, and of wealthy families in New Orleans, largely increased the number of students. Early in th e school year of 1831, it became apparent that additional room was needed and consequently the east wing was begun and completed in the summer of 1832. The west wing was begun in 1833 and was finished in 1834. In 1832, the Asiatic cholera broke out in St. Louis, returning in a still more virulent type in 1833. During the period of its greatest violence the students were removed to St. Stanislaus Seminary near Florissant. A typical street scene in earlier St. Louis Davis-Shaughnessy Flail.

Historically Speaking In May of 1837, the trustees set forth the requirements for receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts from the University. After a great deal of deliberation, the report was finally adopted, and it speci- fied that The classical course shall com- prehend a complete knowledge of the Greek, Latin, and English languages; of geography, use of globes, ancient and modern history, logic and principles of moral philosophy, including ethics and metaphysics; of rhetoric and mathe- matics, including arithmetic, algebra, plane and solid geometry, trigonometry, surveying, mensuration, conic sections, and the principles of natural philoso- phy. Degrees of graduation were first con- ferred by the University at the annual commencement of 1834, and the first graduates were John Servary, A.M., P. A. F. Bouffay, A.B., and Peter A. Walsh, A.B. Students at work in the Institute of Technology. Notre Dame was a pushover com pared with this. Page 10 Clemens Hall, dormitory for male students. In 1835, Father Verhaegen held a consultation with the Medical Society of St. Louis relative to the establishing of a medical faculty. It was not until October, 1836, that they finally came to an agree- ment. A constitution was drawn up, and sanctioned by both parties. Although all the plans were laid, the first course of lectures was not inaugurated until 1S42, when classes were held in a building erected for the purpose on Washington Avenue west of Tenth Street.

In the early years of the University, its buildings were among the most prominent sights of the city, and the institution exercised a great moral influence over society. Distinguished visitors who came to the city usually were given a reception at the College, at the request of prominent citizens. Thus, in 1836, Daniel Webster was given a formal reception at the University, and on that occasion made an eloquent speech. Vice-President Richard M. Johnson was also accorded the same honor as Mr. Webster. In 1842, Charles Dickens visited the University, and is reported to have ' been embarrassed and unhappy in his remarks. During that same year, former President Van Buren, accompanied by J. K. Paulding and other distinguished gentlemen, was received at the University. The forerunner of OUT preient-day R. 0. T. C. Page 12 Yesterday and Today As the University was growing, the city was also expanding greatly. In May of 1867, the University purchased the property on Grand Avenue between Lindell and West Pine Boulevards for a reported price of 52,600. In June, 1 881, the University closed its boarding school. The graduate school of philosophy and science was added to the curriculum in 1889. From its simple beginnings as an Indian Seminary with approximately 150 students, the University has grown to become one of the largest Catholic Uni- versities in America with a present en- rollment of over ten thousand students. Revelations — all student production. It also maintains a reputation for firsts in the field of education, the Uni- versity itself being the oldest University- west of the Mississippi; radio station WEW was the first radio station west of the Mississippi; Parks College of Aeronautical Technology is the first school of its kind to become associated with a university. The University looks forward to a bright future with the same spirit with which she confronted the past, and takes pride and comfort in the many eminent sons and daughters whose careers are a noble monument to her faith, sacrifices, and endeavors.

President Page 14 The President At the time of his appointment as Presi- dent of the University in June of 1943, the Very Reverend Patrick J. Holloran, S.J. was the youngest president in the school ' s one hundred thirty year history. During the five years of his presidency, despite the conditions caused by World War II, the University has made marked progress in all of its varied functions. The opening of the Institute of Geophysical Technology and the Institute of Social Sci- ences; the re-opening of the School of Law; the establishment of a Retirement Plan for lay faculty members; the organization of a full-time Public Relations Office and Place- ment Bureau for students and alumni; and the revival of the Honors Course in the College of Arts and Science are some of the important events of the period since Father Holloran ' s appointment as President. The scholastic year of 1947-48 marked the opening of the new classroom building, Des Peres Hall; the Student Union House, Chouteau House; and the new dormitory for male students, Clemens Hall. Father Holloran entered the Society of Jesus in 1922, and received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Gonzaga University, Spokane, Washington in 1929, and his Licen- tiate in Sacred Theology from St. Mary ' s College, Kansas where he was ordained in June, 1935. He received his degrees of Doctor of Philosophy and Magister Aggregatus from the Gregorian University in Rome in 1939. Senator R. E. Flanders, William Rand, and the Very Rev. Patrick J.

Will du Bourg. The Saint Louis Academy grew into Saint Louis College, and finally into the present University which was chartered ;n 1832. The enrollment of the College of Arts and Science has kept pace with the rest of the University. It now has a student body of 1,233. Father Francis T. Severin, S.J. Assistant Dean Page 20 Father Paul C. Reinert, S.J. Dean As its primary objective the Liberal Arts College strives for the formation of the true and perfect Christian . Its special objective as an agent of the Church is to create and evolve not only an educated man but a man of broad knowledge, a well-trained mind, and an efficient Christian philosophy of life. As part of this objective, the college has formed its principal goals: First: To impart knowledge considered essential to a liberally educated man which constitutes a mastery of permanent tools for later use. Second: To provide experience and com- mand of the great religious truths which cultivate the intellect, will and emotions. Third: To give the fundamental prin- ciples, technique and habits of a rational approach to the whole ambit of human life and living. Fourth: To impart a broad view of knowledge which will serve as a center for attitudes and techniques in future work. Arts and Science Superior students of the College are eligible to par- ticipate in an Honors curriculum which has attracted wide attention. Since 1944 the College of Ar ts and Science has been under the capable deanship of the Rev. Paul C. Reinert, S.J. He received his education at the Jesuit novitiate, the University, St. Mary ' s College, and the University of Chicago where he received a doctorate in the field of administration.

Fourth: The completion of a minor of twelve upper division hours in an unre- lated department. Fifth: The completion of eighteen semester hours of credit in philosophy, which may or may not be a part of the field of concentration. Sixth: A written thesis approved by the concentration adviser and the dean of the College and presented about one month before the date on which the degree is to be conferred. Some departments require oral and written comprehensive examinations instead of a thesis. Any resemblance to human beings is purely coincidental.

Bill of Rights. Although at present the College has trebled its normal enrollment before the war, every effort is being made to guide students towards the same high intellectual and moral goals for which the College has always stood. To this end, the faculty has been aug- mented by the addition of many well-qualified teachers, and its facilities have been enhanced by doubling its available classroom space. ill | IH ■ 1 IIIIMII IH N.I.T. champs, here vie come!

Crowley, Gilday, Isom Page 31 School of Commerce The School of Commerce and Finance was estab- lished in 1910; one of the first of its kind west of the Mississippi River, it has grown and developed until now it constitutes the largest school in the University. The enrollment of the Commerce School, both night and day sections, is over 3,000 students. The Day Section boasts of over 1,700 students; the Night Section, approximately 1,300 students. Father Bernard W. Dempsey, S.J. Regent R. Murray Cantwell Dean The urgent need for such a professional school as this was recognized by a farsighted few who realized the importance of instructing the future businessman in liberal disciplines as well as in the technical and practical knowledge suited to his field. This idea was developed by the Reverend Joseph L. Davis, S.J., who was at the time a teacher of rhetoric, and Mr. Francis A. Thornton, who taught history and economics at the College of Arts and Science. Since there were, at that time, only six universities in the United States that included in their curriculum advanced courses in commerce and finance, Father Davis and Mr. Thornton displayed a truly daring and pioneering spirit. Several leading businessmen mani- fested a growing interest in this enterprise and their cooperation was willingly and unsparingly given. Charlie and Co. crooning Page 32 Lommerce Men prominent in this undertaking to create a School of Commerce and Finance were: Festus Wade, president of the Mercantile Trust Company; Elias Michael of Rice-Stix Dry Goods Company; John Schepley of the Saint Louis Union Trust Company, and George Wade Wilson, vice-president of the Mer- cantile Trust Company. It was, to a great extent, due to their interest and aid that the School was founded. Justin L. Albers Assistant to the Dean Commerce School — Lin- dell Bhd. entrance. Dams-Shaughnessy Hall. School of Commerce The Reverend John P. Frieden, S.J., who was at that time President of the University, understanding the importance of such an enterprise, sent Father Davis to observe and study other collegiate schools of business already established in this country. As a result of this study and on the advice of men actively en- gaged in various types of b usiness, Father Davis decided on a curriculum for the new school. From the very beginning of the school, a modern and consistent curriculum was adopted as gen- eral policy. Page 34 Charles E. Wuller Assistant Dean Forest R. Noffsinger Acting Dean One of the first problems of the new school was the selection of a faculty; it was not an easy task. Prominent among the ideas of that time was the old notion that success in the business world depended almost exclusively on various secrets and tricks of each trade. Of course, most businessmen were reluctant to divulge their secrets, but with the help of George Wade Wilson, Henry L. Hunt and others, a faculty was finally secured. The faculty chosen in 1910 were men with operative knowledge of actual business practice which they had acquired from a close contact with business conditions. They were men with the necessary experience who were willing to teach the future businessman what they knew, and, thereby, to aid him towards a successful career. Mr. Henry L. Hunt, Mr. John Scheirman, Mr. H. Chouteau Dyer, Mr. Edwin H. Wagner, and Mr. George Wade Wilson were early pro- fessors. Dr. Taeusch addressing January graduates. C. and F. Fashion Show.

Father Davis, who was one of the first to recognize the need for such a school, was selected regent, and Mr. Thornton was appointed secretary and professor of economics. The first dean was George Wade Wilson. It was at this time that the School of Commerce and Finance of the University was given full collegiate standing. After the death of Father Davis in 1939, the Reverend Thomas M. Knapp, S.J. was appointed to succeed him as regent. Four years later, due to illness and his advanced age, Mr. Wilson became dean emeritus and in his place was ap- pointed Robert M urray Cantwell. Mr. Cantwell had been associated with the department of accounting since 1926. Also, in 1943, Henry L. Hunt was chosen associate dean, but he died after one year in the post. In February of this year, Dr. Forest R. Noffsinger was appointed acting dean of the School of Commerce and Finance. Associated with the University for the past two years, Dr. Noffsinger held the posts of associate professor of business administration and assistant dean of the School of Commerce and Finance in charge of the Evening Division. Dr. Noffsinger was for many years connected with the educational program of the American Automobile Co., and he came to the University from Anheuser- Busch, Inc. Bills take over Chicagi Page 60 Classes - - Day Father Davis, a St. Louisan, attended St. Louis University in 1889. He returned to the University in 1893 where he was a student in the School of Phil- osophy and Science. Father Davis taught at Xavier College in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1904 Father Davis was ordained. Soon after his ordina- tion, Father Davis joined the faculty of the Uni- versity, where he taught rhetoric and history. • . Sin!;,- up the band.

He was one of the first Saint Louis men who took an active interest in the establishing of such a collegiate business school. After his appointment as dean in 1910, he willingly donated his time and efforts to the administration of the School. When Mr. Wilson, because of his advanced age and illness, retired dean emeritus in 1943, the School retained his friendship until he died two years later. His death meant a great loss for the School. Mr. Wilson had served as administrator, friend, consultant, and spokesman for many years Grab, Bags!

Thornton, who was one of the first men to develop the idea of establishing the School of Commerce and Finance, received his Bachelor of Arts from the College of Arts and Science in 1894. Shortly afterwards, he was awarded his Master of Arts degree and then re- ceived his bachelor ' s degree in law. The idea of a collegiate business school in St. Louis interested Mr. Thornton because he saw the need for giving young men the opportunity of acquiring a knowledge of business methods and the training needed for a successful career. Before the establishment of the School, he was teaching mathematics, history and economics at the University. After con- sulting with other faculty members in- cluding Mr. Hunt, Father Davis and Father Frieden, he provided the teaching staff for the new School. The School of Commerce and Finance today boasts many men who have been faculty members for many years. One of the men in the first graduating class of the School, Mr. Gustave K. Klausner, has served on the faculty with distinction for more that thirty years. Other men accomplished in their professions, who have been instructors at the School for over twenty years are: Mr. Erwin Schow- engerdt, Mr. Joseph J. Hassett, Mr. Boaz Watkins, Mr. John Lang, Mr. Gus V. Keller, Mr. Walter F. Gast, and Dr. Harry J. O ' Neill. And after! Page 66 Classes - - Night The Reverend Bernard W. Dempsey, S.J., associate professor and director of the department of economics, is regent of the School of Commerce and Finance. Father Dempsey, who returned to the University in 1940, belongs to several economic organizations and he was, until recently, president of the Saint Louis Chapter of the American Marketing Association and of the Catholic Economic Association.

In 1899, he, Festus Wade and other businessmen organized the Mercantile Trust Company, of which he became vice-president in 1903 and president in 1927. Two years later, Mr. Wilson was elected chairman of the Board of Directors of the newly consolidated Mercantile-Commerce National Bank and Trust Company. Aquinas — ties.

These veterans ' classes continued for four years and during this period, 600 disabled veteran students were enrolled in the school. The School enjoyed a continued increase in students, and the School became so crowded in 1930, that the urgent need for a new location was expressed. The present building on Lindell boulevard was begun in 193 1 and now provides facilities for the large number of students enrolled in the School. Food ' s wonderful — wish you were here.

Mr. Cantwell, who, during his twenty-two years at the University taught mathematics and accounting, and was associate professor of accounting, is active in various professional accounting organizations. After five years ' service as dean, he returned to active work as associate professor of accounting because of the definite need for his ability in that department. Mr. Charles E.

One of the chief functions of this loyal and ever-increasing body is the support of the student aid fund. The School of Commerce and Finance, as an integral unit of the University, has definite aims: first, to develope the minds and personalities of its students by training them to cultivate keen observa- tion and clear thinking; second, to encourage the moral and intellectual habits which will serve as a guide in their business and social life; third, to provide the knowledge, skill and understanding which constitutes a professional college training.

The School of Commerce and Finance gives special attention to the protec- tion of the moral and religious interests of its students. There is nothing per- mitted in its regular curriculum, in its environment, or in its extracurricular activities which is inconsistent with these high standards. Such required courses as those in ethics and religion are further evidence of the School ' s efforts towards safe-guarding the higher in- terests of its students. Several required courses, as well as a substantial number of elective courses are offered by the School, and are fur- nished by University departments of English, geography, history, mathe- matics, philosophy, physical educa- tion, psychology, religion, sociology and speech. Page 7i Who dal hehin de paper? Classes - - Night Not only does the Commerce School offer courses of a purely technical nature, but it also is equipped to furnish its students with traditional or cultural studies. Although, in the regular curriculum, ap- proximately sixty per cent of the courses are classi- fied as technically commercial and forty per cent as cultural, these traditional or cultural studies are not emphasized only to be forgotten when the others are to be concentrated upon. Instead, a proportionate measure of each is studied simultaneously and thus, they compliment each other, and are instrumental in affording the student a well-balanced education.

When, in 1901, this institu- tion was consolidated with the Beaumont Hospital Medical College, the Saint Louis College of Dentistry was incorporated as the Marion-Sims Dental College. In the beginning the school was privately owned. In 1903, however, the initial steps were taken to place it under University control. In that year, the Uni- versity acquired the Marion-Sims Medical College, and affiliation of the Dental School with the University was established at the same time. The new reception desk. School of Dentistry In 1905, the University leased the Dental School from the stockholders, and three years later it acquired the title by purchase, thus making the Dental School an integral part of the University. The University School of Dentistry, which is rated as a class A dental school by the Dental Educa- tional Council of America, is proud of the able leader- ship of its faculty and officials. The Rev. Francis J. O ' Reilly, S.J., is regent of the School, and Dr. Lee Roy Main, a graduate of the School, is dean. Vice-dean and superintendent of the clinic is Dr. Otto S. Freitag.

Located in the Dental School building is the scientific exhibit of oral surgery and exodontia, presented to the School by the late Dr. George B. Winters. It is one of the most complete in the world. Recently added to the School ' s educa- tional facilities is a laboratory fully equipped for research in dental pathology. It maintains active contact with the other laboratories in the School of Dentistry and in the School of Medicine. A museum, containing the collection of dental instruments and equipment which the School has accumulated over a number of years is maintained within the School. One of the many labs. The newly-equipped Dental Clinic. Page 96 The School ' s operative clinic, which has the largest annual attendance of any dental school in the world, affords space for one hundred chairs. Patients ' waiting rooms, examination rooms, x-ray rooms, and ex- tracting rooms are maintained in conjunction with the clinic. The School of Dentistry is particularly fortunate in its clinical patronage. Students gain practical experince in the operative clinic and in a number of out-clinics and hospitals. During the past three years the School has been responsible for services rendered in many institutions. Two special den- tal clinics are maintained in the University ' s Firmin Desloge Hospital. Under adequate super- vision, students also spend some time in clinic service in the following institutions: Convent of the Good Shepherd, Gravois; Missouri Baptist Children ' s Home, Pattonville, Missouri; Saint Stanislaus Jesuit Sem- inary, Florissant; Saint in- cent ' s Orphan Home, Nor- mandy; and The Epworth School For Girls, Webster Groves. Omicron Kappa Upsilon, Scholastic Honor Society for Dental students, had its origin with the class of 1914 at North- western University. In 1934 the Eta Eta Chapter was or- ganized at the University. The society ' s purpose is to encourage dental students to rec- ognize and honor those students who distinguish themselves by a high quality of scholarship and also to develop a spirit of competition among dental stu- dents.

The progressive conception of den- tistry has been making taxing demands upon dental education, which is a dis- tinctive health service and a field of science. The School of Dentistry delights in confirming her whole-hearted cooperation in the movement sponsored by the Council on Dental Education of the American Dental Association, which is conducting a truly scientific study of dental education. Today the dentist must be a profes- sional man dedicating himself to the serv- ice of humanity through his interest and evaluating of the total health of his patients. With this concept in mind, the School of Dentistry is adhering closely to the theory that a professional man must have an education broader than mere utilitarian designs. Thus two years of college is required as a minimum before admission to the School, and even more advanced preparation is encouraged. Stress is placed on the interdependence of professional success and sound character. Theta Kappa Phi ' ers and their ladies.

Knafp I Immaculata Chapel, St. Mary ' s College School of Divinity The School of Divinity is the oldest graduate faculty of the University. Although it appeared for the first time in the University Catalogue of 1837, there is unquestionable evidence that this school was functioning as early as 1835, only two years after the University received its charter. At first, the School was located in Saint Louis, but in i860, the clerical students were transferred to the Jesuit college in Boston. A complete course in theology was resumed at the University in 1899, when the students and professors occupied the Philos- ophy and Science building. Page 108 School of Divinity However, in 193 1, the School of Divinity was moved to Saint Mary ' s College in Kansas, which had been cl osed shortly before to lay undergraduate students. Although the School of Di- vinity is at present located in another state, it still retains its status as an inte- gral unit of the University. The present dean of the School is the Rev. Cyril Vollert, S.J., appointed in 1940. The Rev. Thomas A. O ' Connor, S.J., is rector. The many years of training of the young Jesuit reach their climax in the School of Divinity. He has spent four years at Saint Stanislaus Seminary in Florissant, Missouri, three years in the School of Philosophy and Science, and three more teaching in one of the Jesuit high schools or colleges. He is ordained at the end of his third year in the School of Divinity. Father Thomas A. O ' Connor, SJ. Rector At Saint Mary ' s, the students of Divinity are trained in the rubrics of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The cur- riculum also includes the study of dog- matic, moral, and ascetical theology; canon law; Biblical; Greek; liturgy; and ecclesiastical history. Immaculata Chapel and Bellarmine Hall.

Walsh, Eatough, Hebert, Vaske Students of Theology engage in many activities. They assist in the direction of affairs of the Kansas Sodality Union; they work in the office of the Jesuit Seminary Aid Association, one of their largest organizations. All students of Theology are required to attend the classes in sacred oratory, and opportunity for practice preaching under experienced direction is offered in and outside those classes. The students combine their theological knowledge with a complete understanding of the current social problems. To further this, there is offered annually a series of lectures by experts, and study clubs and open forum discussions are conducted. Only students who have attained a Master ' s degree or its equivalent in Scholastic Philosophy are admitted to courses leading to graduate degrees in Theology. The easy use of Latin as a medium of communication is an essential without which it would be impossible to follow the courses in dogmatic and moral theology which are regularly given in Latin. At least an elementary knowl- edge of ancient Greek is also required, and a reading knowledge of French and German is strongly recommended. The degree of Doctor in Sacred Theol- ogy requires a further program of courses and research under the direction of a special committee of professors, as well as a doctoral dissertation.

Page 110 Divinity The School of Divinity was given the status of a Pon- tifical Institute of the Holy See in 1934 and was empowered to grant canonical degrees. Registration is limited to members of the Society of Jesus who are preparing for the priesthood. Students having attained a sufficiently high level of scholarship in the various subjects, after submitting a satisfactory thesis, and successfully passing a compre- hensive examination in the whole field of theology, are awarded the degree of Licentiate in Sacred Theology.

Graduate School The Graduate School, the fourth largest of the Schools of University, is the second oldest school. In the year, 1932, the University received its charter and the Graduate School was founded. Its administration is entrusted to a self-governing Board of Graduate Students and a separate dean. The Rev. Thurber Montgomery Smith, S.J., has been dean since 1933. Graduate students, who are either candidates for degrees, unclassified students or auditors, receive thorough grounding in a special field of knowledge. They are also trained in methods of research and the presentation of results. Page 116 Mass at St. Raymond ' s. Off Moments Bet xou can ' t guess what it is! Campion Conflagration.

The Institute, organized to meet the require- ments of present day students, accomplishes its objective with a twofold purpose in mind. First, to instruct the prospective engineer in the fundamentals of the basic sciences and, secondly, to allow him special- ization within a circumscribed technical field. The curricula deviate from the conven- tional engineering type not only in subject matter, but also in the kind of emphasis placed upon the courses provided. While practical application is not ignored, strong emphasis is placed upon the basic sciences. The conviction prevails that a modern en- gineer should not only be familiar with particular application of instruments and techniques but more important, have a thorough understanding of the funda- mentals. Following such trends of thought, the undergraduate program is organized on two levels. The lower division is comprised of freshmen and sophomores, and the upper division consists of juniors and seniors. On a third level, in cooperation with the graduate school, a program of studies and research is conducted for college-trained students desiring advanced instruction lead- ing to higher academic degrees. First and second year students are con- fronted with courses in basic engineering: English , philosophy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, religion, technical drawing, ma- chine tool laboratory, surveying and other related subjects. Included in the general engineering are special courses in geology, meteorology, or basic electrical engineering which are taken by students in preparation for their specialized work in junior and sen- ior years.

Although the Institute of Technology was inaugurated as an autonomous school of the University in September, 1944, the department of geophysics has been in existence since 1925. The Reverend James B. Macelwane, S.J., organized the depart- ment, the first in the Western Hemisphere, and has been its dir- ector since its inception. Engineered by Students.

Stille, Cavanaugh Until the Institute was founded, the geophysics department was a part of the College of Arts and Science. It is now a part of the Institute of which Father Macelwane is the dean and the Reverend Victor J. Blum, S.J., the assistant dean. The Institute commenced with a modest enrollment of thirty-eight students all bent upon the task of seeking scientific and technical knowledge. Simultaneously the school has become one of the finest in the country in the teaching of the earths sciences. The School, in the pure and applied study of the earth sciences, maintains seis- mological, gravity, geomagnetic and geo- electrical laboratories. Other facilities which assist scholars in the pursuit of technical knowledge are the electrical and radio communications engineering, and machine tool, geological and petrographic laboratories. The laboratories contain a variety of testing, gauging, and electronics equip- ment, as well as gravimeters, torsion bal- ances, and magnetometers for both the vertical and horizontal components of the earth ' s magnetic field. The Institute, in addition to the labora- tories, maintains a meteorological and five separate seismological observatories. Top: What are we offered? Bottom: One or two lumps? Page 120 Technology - - Classes In the meteorological observatory, weather maps are plotted by students in meteorology. Data for these maps are supplied not only by the University observa- tory but also by the teletype machines which bring in weather reports from all parts of the United States and Canada. The seismograph stations are operated continuously throughout the year. Their location at Little Rock, Arkansas; Cape Girardeau, Florissant, and Saint Louis, Missouri, makes it possible to study not only distant earthquakes, but also the local disturbances. Such a network of stations together with the amount of solid research carried on in seismology gives the University international importance. Likewise the Institute is the central station of the Jesuit Seismological Association. That ' s a good pose. Bill. SOPHOMORES: Top Picture: Back Row left to right: Cobb, Schillinger, Flick, Sheehan.

In order to supply the students with information and data relative to their technical studies, the Institute maintains and is continually expanding an extensive library. The shelves of the library con- tain some 14,000 books, journals, pamph- lets, and reprints. Assisting the students in their quest for knowledge is an ever increasing stock of scientific equipment. During the past year, the Institute added numerous items to its inventory. Among the new addi- tions is a vertical component recording magnetometer and a direct reading vertical component field magnetometer which are used for the measuring changes in the earth ' s magnetic field; a radio field strength recorder which is a unit measuring varying strength of radio signals; and sensitive ca- pacitance and inductance bridges, valuable assets in radio and electronic fields. The most recent addition is a power panel which has been installed in the electrical engineering laboratory. Unique in the field of research, the In- stitute is now carrying on original investi- gations by means of a newly designed seis- mograph constructed under a United States Navy grant. The seismograph is the end result of cooperative research on the part of several departments in the Institute. Top: Are those the apples of polishing fame? Bottom: Any doubt about who ' s winning?

To do this the School imparts high ethical ideals united with a comprehensive technical training in the principles and rules, the standards and techniques of law as a means to the attainment of justice in a society subject to constantly changing social and economic conditions. The program of instructions and of study have been so designed that a student will be equipped to practice law wherever the Anglo-American system of law prevails. Father Louis G. Fitzsimmons, S.J. Regent Page 124 ■ Paul E. Fitzsimmons Acting Dean The present school year, 1947-48 saw the largest student body enrolled in the Law School in all the forty-two years of its history. 348 students were registered, 252 in the day school, and 96 in the evening division. The Law faculty has been increased in proportion to the ever-increasing number of students in the School. The full-time faculty consists of: The Reverend Louis G. Fitzsimmons, S.J., regent; Paul E. Fitzsimmons, dean; James Higgins; Thomas Quinn; Joseph Sinclitico; Walter Williams; Joseph Simeone, and Walter Rafalko. In addition to the full-time faculty, the following practicing attorneys present courses in the Law School: John Martin, Rene Lusser, Milton Greenfield, Frank Motherway, Omar Poos, the late John L. Sullivan, Joseph Burcham, Dr. Van Taay, and David McMullen. Local lawyers regather to rehash old times. School of Law Law, unlike medicine, does not have public institutions such as hospitals where the graduate may gain practical experience and apply his newly-acquired skills. In an effort to supply the students with a legal internship, Dean Fitzsimmons has inaugurated an extensive plan: Courses in legal draftsmanship and trial practice have been introduced. In addition to in- tensive moot court training, the senior class annually visits the various Missouri courts when they are in session. Registration ritual.

In conjunction with the Saint Louis Bar Association, the senior lawyers under the direction of attorneys who are members of the Bill of Rights Committee make in- vestigations to ascertain whether or not the constitutional rights of any individual are being infringed upon in this commu- nity. During the past year the students were called upon to obtain information for a survey of the Criminal Courts in Saint Louis with respect to the right of the ac- cused to a speedy trial and the right to the assistance of counsel. These various activities provide the law students with an internship which gives them self-confidence and renders the ad- justment to actual practice much smoother because it eliminates a period of trial and error. The objectives of the School of Law are to give a thorough grounding in pro- cedural and substantive law, and to instill a consciousness of the lawyer ' s responsi- bility to alleviate the distress of his fellow- man. The School of Law confers the degree of Bachelor of Laws. Every candidate for the degree must pass all required courses; complete a minimum of 80 semester hours of work; obtain a 2.0 credit-point average in courses taken, and show evidence of good moral character.

Dean Paul Fitz- simmons felt that since one of the objec- tives of the Law School is to render a public service, there is no reason why the School should cease to perform this duty when the student graduates. With this in mind, the Law School in conjunction with the Saint Louis Bar Association presented a course in Federal Income and Estate Taxation for practicing attorneys, business men and interested citizens. This course was presented on sixteen successive Thursday evenings from Jan- uary 8 to April 22, 1948. The lectures were given by a panel composed of mem- bers of the Law School faculty and out- standing tax specialists from Saint Louis and Washington, D C. The lecturers were the following: Howe P. Cochran, Abraham Lowenhaupt, R. Frederick Koeh- ler, Walter A. Rafalko, Peter H. Husch, Philip V. Meagher, T. Hartley Pollock, and Davis Haskin. The course was well received. The demand for such a course was evidenced by the fact that one hundred and sixty persons registered for the course and seventy-five applicants were turned away because of the lack of space. Because of the enthusiastic reception given this course, Dean Fitzsimmons plans to offer additional courses annually upon subjects that will be of interest to practicing attorneys and other members of the community.

The School was dis- continued as a part of the University in 1855, but in 1901 the University assumed control of the Marion Sims-Beaumont College of Medicine and in 1903 it became an integrated part of the University. The School of Medicine is located in the Medical School building on 1402 South Grand boulevard. This building was built in 1927. The professor is a gay dog, but only at the Faculty Frolic. FR. ALPHONSE M. SCHWITALLA, S.J. Dean The School of Medicine furthers within its students a knowledge of the prevention and treat- ment of diseases based on the studies of the organs, structures and functions of the human body; attempt- ing to prepare its students for the competent general practice of medicine and to develope within them a realization of the Christian ethical duties enjoined upon them by their study of medicine. Men and Machines. Page 133 Just what the doctor ordered! School of Medicine The administration of the School of Medicine en- courages the development of personal relations between the students and the faculty members so as to further develop those character traits so necessary to the suc- cessful practitioner of medicine who seriously exercises his duties and assumes his moral, social and humanitarian responsibilities. Since 1927, the Rev. Alphonse M. Schwitalla, S.J., has been dean of the School of Medicine. Father Schwitalla has attained the distinction of being one of the outstanding medical educa- tors in the United States, and has this past year accepted the position of Presi- dent Emeritus of the Catholic Hospital Association, after nineteen years of active direction of this organization. His widespread influence in the field of medicine and of education has been given ample testimony by his member- ship on numerous social and scientific committees, both of the government and of various associations connected with medicine. Dr. Armand Brcdeur Assistant to the Dean Father Schwitalla received his Bachelor of Arts at the University in 1907, and his Master of Arts degree here in 1908. He received honorary doctorate degrees from Johns Hopkins University in 1921, Tulane University in 1938, and Lawrence College in 1939. Father Schwitalla, besides teaching at St. Louis University, has taught at Xavier and Rockhurst Colleges. Page 1. The purpose of the School of Medicine of the University is to prepare its students for the future practice of medicine. To do this, the School must necessarily contribute to the advancement of the science and of the art of medicine. The School, however, cannot view its purpose within too narrow a limitation. It seeks to extend the influence of biological and medical science among others than students of medicine: first, among the other students and faculty members of the University, particularly in such schools as those of Dentistry, Nursing, Social Service, Education, and the College of Arts and Science; and then also among other members of the metropolitan, and even larger communities, particularly through its relation with local and national welfare agencies. In pursuance of the same purpose, the University School of Medicine consistently encourages contribu- tions to scientific and broadly educational literature, particularly in the fields of basic biological sciences, of medicine and of hygiene; and participation in the pro- grams of local, regional, and national scientific societies. It strives, therefore, to instill into its students an appreciation of the position which the practice of medicine occupies, and will occupy in human society. It seeks, moreover, to exemplify its teaching by its own program, and by its official attitude of cooperative understand- ing towards organized medicine, towards the professional, medical, and scientific associations, and towards the health and welfare agencies. Finally, through the development of facilities on a graduate level, both in the fundamental biological as well as in the clinical sciences, and through the award of fellowships, the school desires not only to stimulate the student ' s ambition for achievement in specialization, but also seeks to contribute towards the advance- ment of medicine. Because, finally, the School of Med- icine is a Catholic University and a University under Jesuit control, its objective can be achieved only through that basic philosophy and religious faith which guarantee energetic, persistant, and effective adherence to the most exacting ideals in medical practice.

The building, which is under construction, will contain on completion vastly extended facilities for research in the various medical fields and enlarged administrative housing. Other proposed rooms include a chapel, a museum of medical history and a students ' recreation room. This Christmas, the students participated in the annual Christmas Party held in the new school building. A humorous letter written by one of the students sum- mons both students and faculty to the party sponsored by the sophomore class.

Dr. Neilson received his Bachelor ' s and Master ' s degrees at Ohio Wesleyan University, his Doctorate at Chicago University, and his Doctor of Medicine at Rush Medical College. He taught at Ohio Wesleyan Univer- sity and at the University of Chicago before he came to the University. The faculty of the Medical School is composed of men who have won distinc- tion for their professional skill and for their scientific and medical advancements. Among the most recent to receive acclaim is Dr. Edward A. Doisy, director of the department of biochemistry, who received the 1943 Nobel Prize for physiology and medicine for his discovery of the chemical nature of Vitamin K. It is used for the prevention of hemorrhages, especially in new born babies. The University confers only one degree for the entire undergraduate curriculum administered by the School of Medicine, the degree of Doctor of Medicine.

School of Nursing The instructional facilities of the School of Nursing, which was opened to lay nurses in 1928, are centered around the University Hospitals; dormitories, classroom, demonstration room facilities and laboratories are avail- able, together with libraries. Use is likewise made of facilities in other schools of the University. Sister Mary Geraldine Kulleck, S.S.M. Dean Page 146 Nursing The School of Nursing was established in 1928 as a distinct but integral unit of the University. It had its remote beginning long before that, however. Following the modern trend in nursing, those in charge of St. Mary ' s Infirmary, where nursing service had been performed since 1874, established a training school in October of 1907. Twenty-one Sisters who had already been nursing entered upon a definite theoretical course in nursing with the view of becoming registered. A three-year course in nursing was maintained from the beginning. The school was conducted exclusively for the Sisters of St. Mary of the Third Order of St. Francis, who celebrated the Diamond Jubilee of the founding of their Order in November of 1947. In 191 5 the goal of accreditation by the Missouri State Board of Nurse Examiners was achieved. k Tea for two — and twenty. Nurses star at Starlight Roof. Ohhhh!! Henrv!!

When Firmin Desloge Hospital was built in 1933, St. Mary ' s Infirmary was dedicated to the service of Negro patients, and Firmin Desloge Hospital along with St. Mary ' s and Mount St. Rose were united to form the University Hospital Group. The School of Nursing is an active member of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Nursing on the basis of its program in nursing and nursing educa- tion and of the National Organization for Public Health Nursing for its program in public health nursing. It holds membership likewise in national organizations representing the interests of the various curricula in the Health and Hospital Services. Seen at the Nurses ' prom.

At the present time, the School offers to properly qualified students the following curricula: through the division of Nurs- ing and Nursing Education, the combined academic and basic professional curric- ulum leading to the Certificate in Nursing and the Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing, Nursing Education or Public Health Nursing; and the combined aca- demic and advanced professional curric- ulum leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in the same three fields. Through the division of Health and Hospital Services it offers curricula in Dietetics, Hospital Administration, Medical Tech- nology, Medical Record Library Science, Physical Therapy Technology and Radio- logic Technology. The Rev. John J. Mclnerny, S.J., was appointed regent of the School ofJNursing immediately preceding the first semester of this school year. Father Mclnerny, who also serves as an instructor in the department of religion, succeeds the Rev. Raphael C. McCarthy, S.J., in the capacity of regent. Sister Mary Geraldine Kulleck, S.S.M., is dean of the School. Top: Wish we could do that. Bottom: Huh? Page 156 N ursmg --CI asses In the basic educational philosophy of the School of Nursing, the complete development of the student is regarded as paramount. Not only what the stu- dent knows and does, but what the student is, must be regarded as the controlling viewpoint in the educational process. To this end, the development of the individual rather than the acquisition of pro- fessional knowledge and technical skill is the impor- tant objective. Professional knowledge and technical skill are regarded as deriving their real significance in life only from the broad culture achieved by the student. The student is given full opportunity to avail himself of the rich opportunities afforded by the University for guidance and assistance in the development of a basic philosophy of life.

Its members include everyone registered in the School The purpose of the organization is primarily social and to this end it sponsers worthwhile leisure time activities, which include all-University parties in addition to its other activities. The Basic Student Nurses ' Association admits only those students enrolled in the academic and pro- fessional curriculum. This organization sponsers and directs social activities, fosters a closer relation- ship between the students and the faculty, and promotes a better mutual understanding of school problems.

Parks College of Parks College of Aeronautical Technology, the oldest federally-approved aviation college in the United States, became the twentieth college of the University, the oldest university west of the Mississippi River, in August, 1946. This union was ideal because it brought the prestige and cultural background of a large uni- versity to a college already outstanding in the specialized field of aeronautics. Oliver L. Parks, a Knight of Saint Gregory and a Knight of Malta, founded Parks College, as a private institution in August, 1927. It began as a small flight school offering short courses in flying from a base at the Municipal Airport in St. Louis. Oliver L. Parks Dean Page 160 Aeronautical Technology Soon Parks College had grown to the point where it needed its own airport and living accom- modations. For that reason the College acquired more than ioo acres in Illinois, within fifteen minutes of downtown St. Louis. An airport was laid out and a dormitory, hangar, and other buildings were erected across the highway from the historic village of Cahokia, the oldest white settlement in Illinois, founded in 1699. Parks students incognito. Father George Bischofberger, S.J., Regent Now the College has 113 acres, a tree-shaded campus with flowers, and shrubs on what was once an alfalfa field. There are twenty-three buildings including brick dormi- tories and classrooms, a modern cafeteria, library, chapel, hangars, laboratories, and shops. A large new gymnasium used for sports and used as headquarters of the College ' s Air R. O. T. C. program was completed late in 1947. Seventy-five per cent of the eligible students at Parks are enrolled in the voluntary military training course. Upon successful completion of the course, they are com- missioned as second lieutenants in the Air Reserve. J.B.G. prepares for Homecoming parade. Page 161 Parks Class Bacon, Donald D.

C. program was another step in a long series of progressive moves by Parks College, beginning in July, 1928 when the Certificate of Approval as a ground and flight school was awarded the College by the federal agency which preceded the present Civil Aeronautics Administration. The College has the distinction of holding the No. 1 Certificate of Approval in the United States, being the nation ' s oldest aviation school in point of approval. The history of Parks closely parallels that of aviation itself because the College taught and developed many of the leaders who set the pace in the industry. Hundreds of suc- cessful Parks ' graduates a re ample evidence of the high caliber of its technical training. Possessing the finest facilities and personnel, Parks College, with its own private airport and twenty-three modern buildings, is qualified to give the stu- dents the best education in the field of aviation.

Stultz Current enrollment at Parks is 503 students who come to the campus from forty-three states, Canada, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Alaska, attracted by the College ' s world-wide reputation for avia- tion education. Parks graduates are awarded a Bachelor of Science degree from the University. There are three main courses at Parks College: (1) Aviation Operations Engineering,, preparing students for careers as dealers in the sale and service of aircraft; for employment with airlines as aeronautical meteorologists, or in the operations or traffic departments. (2) Aviation Maintenance Engineering, preparing students for positions as. field service representatives of aircraft and aircraft accessory companies, and for positions in the aircraft maintenance departments of airlines. (3) Aeronautical Engineering preparing,, students for positions in the planning and design of aircraft in aircraft com- panies. Under the guidance of the Uni- versity, the College hopes to develop still more the perfection of its teaching and valuable equipment. At Parks the school year is divided into four terms of twelve weeks each, making a total of forty-eight school weeks in the year. There are two two- week vacation periods, one in the sum- mer and another between Christmas and New Year ' s. Top: Mass in Park ' s Chapel. Bottom: Could it be television? Page 172 Aeronautical Technology Parks College aims to provide aeronautical training so thorough, to maintain performance standards so high, and at the same time, to em- phasize the development of integrity, complete de- pendability, and all-around good citizenship to such an extent that the aviation industry in the future, as in the past, will whole-heartedly welcome all our graduates. This statement of Oliver L. Parks, founder and dean of the College, is as true in 1948 as it was when the School was founded over twenty years ago. The primary objective of the College is to pro- vide the best possible preparation for a career in aviation. Fundamental, too, is the necessity to develop desirable personality characteris tics.

Within the Scholasticate Building reside young members of the Society of Jesus. These young men, together with the faculty, form the School of Phi- losophy and Science. The purpose of the School is to present to the scholastics that knowledge of philosphy and science and that general training which will best prepare them for the apostolic and educational work awaiting them in the future. Training in philosophy and the sciences is invaluable in that it organizes human knowledge into a harmonious unit. Philosophy training is also a pre- requisite for the intelligent study of theology. Page 174 and Science Young clerics are equipped with a thorough understanding of philosophy from a systematic and historical view- point, liberally educated in a cur- riculum embodying further studies in education, sociology, classical and mod- ern literature, and history. They are prepared for a teaching career and helped in their specialized scholarly interests. The scholastics are also en- couraged to participate in missionary work, the sodality, social work, cate- chetical and oratorical training, and literary production. Young scholastics are busily engaged in various extracurricular activities. They assist in editing and managing The Modern Schoolman, raise their voices in musical harmony in the Scholastic Choir at University functions, and teach religion classes in a number of schools throughout Saint Louis. The Missouri Province Missions gain finan- cial aid from the Stamp Bureau which functions under scholastic guidance. Through these activities, the Phil- osophy and Science students contribute to the good of the University as a whole. Father Robert J. Henle, S.J. Dean Fr. Francis Jansky, S.J.

Robert J. Henle, S.J., dean of the School of Philosophy and Science. The Rev. Robert M. Kelley, S.J., is the superior, assisted by the Rev. Francis J. Jansky, S.J. The three years spent at the School are crowded and busy. Philosophy reigns supreme, but around it gather all the sciences and arts of the University. Through a busy round of activities and work, the Society of Jesus trains its future members practically and spiritually. The studies in the School of Philosophy and Science are, however, correlated with those in the College of Arts and Science and in the Graduate School. The students receive their undergraduate degrees some time within the first two years. After the completion of their undergraduate work, they are registered in the Graduate School. The School confers the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science in common with the College of Arts and Science. In addition, those who meet the Papal requirements set down in the Stat- uta receive the canonical degree of Licen- tiate in Philosophy. The classes are conducted as lectures, discussions, and seminars. The students of each year meet approximately twice a week to carry on philosophical discussions and argumentations under the direction of a professor. Three times a year disputa- tions, formal debates, on philosophical questions are held before the student body and faculty. ifcrsi born « a« J capped lS!lpmsM55lin olhcs.«fi4 laiUiminaman er.

Bottom: A product of scholastic labor. Page 178 As seriously as they take their studies, work and extracurricular activities, the scholastics also participate in activities of a lighter nature. Some assume roles in plays which they direct and produce throughout the year. Others content themselves with their weekly holiday or sports. All fall, the Quadrangle assumes the role of a foot- ball field for the late afternoon games of the scholastics- In winter, regardless of rain or snow, the clerics can be seen in the Quadrangle, indulging in a basketball game with somewhat less than philosophical calm. Spring corkball and baseball games of the scholastics cause many students attending classes to gaze longingly out the windows at the joyous recreation in the Quadrangle.

Husslein, S.J., and in 1933 it was admitted to the American Association of Schools of Social Work. During the first six years of its existence, social work was a department of the School of Sociology. Since 1936, however, the School of Social Service is a unit of the Graduate School and offers pro- fessional training on a graduate level exclusively, to men and women who qualify for its program leading to the degree of Master of Science in Social Work. At the present time it is one of the forty-six accredited Schools of Social Work in the country, six of which are conducted under Catholic auspices. Page ISO Social Service Since 1940 the Rev. A. H. Scheller, S.J., has been the director of the School of Social Service. The School offers educational oppor- tunities for professional social work. Complex social problems of today call for more than zeal and good will in persons devoting their lives and talents to bring about desired solutions of these problems. The purpose of the School is to give students of high moral principles the essential knowledge of the field of social work which will equip them to render constructive services to others. It does this by a further study of social problems, by the development of skill in dealing with others, by planned curricula of courses based on sound philosophical, moral and religious principles and by a continuous supervision of each student accepted for training. There were 127 graduate students of social work in the School during the academic year 1947-48. These students represented seventy-seven different col- leges, universities and seminaries from all corners of the country. The training itself consists of acade- mic courses and supervised field work. The courses aim to give the students Father Aloysius H. Scheller, S.J. Dean certain skills in case work relationships and to deepen their understanding of social problems. Field work consists in the student ' s spending two days a week at a social agency under the supervision of selected teachers.

Brown, who became dean at that time, one of the influential units of the University. The development of advanced work in the field of physical edu- cation, which is administered through University College, has tended to make the college, previously largely a school for women definitely co-educational in its enrollment. It is however, closely allied to the College of Arts and Science, which as the oldest college in the University, has tended to encourage the growth of the newer division. Dr. William C. Korfmacher Acting Dean, Evening Division Sodality Hall. Page 1S4 Caroling and Coking Alumnae come home. University College is the teacher-training in- stitution for all of the men and women of the University. In addition it is the College of Arts and Science for all women who do not desire a specialized curriculum such as is offered in nursing and business. Particular attention is given to the general education of women in preparation for specialized graduate work in the field of Social Service. The University College student can receive the following degrees after completing four years: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts in Education and Bachelor of Science in Education. Queue up, and have cards ready, please. ' No small part of the general growth of Uni- versity College has been in the Evening Division under the direction of Dr. William C. Korfmacher. This section offers not only college work for the qualified student who cannot attend day sessions, but also gives opportunity for advanced work of a general nature for the adult who wishes to advance culturally but does not desire college credit. There is reason to believe that this popular phase of university education is in its infancy, and that enrollment in this division will increase materially in the future. A wide selection of courses in many fields are offered in the curriculum of the Evening Division of the University College. Dr. Edwin J. Brown Dean Past 185 U. C.

However, in 1925, it was moved from Carondelet to Wydown and Big Bend boulevards, its present site, where it is organized in five buildings. In the fall of that year, an agreement with the University was signed, whereby Fontbonne College be- came the youngest corporate college of the University. This institution for the higher education of young women helps to prepare its students to meet the ever- increasing problem of our modern civilization by instilling in them high standards of honesty and integrity, and a well-trained intelligence. Also towards this goal, the College enables its students to excell in their selected careers by offering specialized knowledge in their chosen fields. Page 193 Maryville College Maryville College of the Sacred Heart is a member of a world-wide organization which, for over a century and a half, has been educating girls under the direction of the Religious of the Sacred Heart. Since its estab- lishment in 1872, Maryville has had as its specific purpose the development of morally upright, cultured Christian women. Maryville offers a four-year course in liberal arts and science leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science. In 1926 it became a Corporate College of the University, and is at present accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Second- ary Schools. Located in south St. Louis on twenty-four acres of campus, Maryville is home to its students in a very real sense. The purpose of the School is to assist the young woman to acquire and refine a sense of values, moral, religious, and intellectual. Page 194 Webster College ....

Finn, S.J., the Arts Sodality this year was divided into groups of approximately fifteen members each. Meetings of the individual groups were held every two weeks at periods convenient for the Sodalists in the respective groups. Since each Sodalist was allowed to choose a period which would fit harmon- iously into his class schedule, meetings were attended with less inconvenience to the individual Sodalist. It ' s always fair weather, when Once a month the members of the Advisory Board held a meeting. Each month, too, the entire Sodality met for a general session. As in the past the candidates held their meetings apart from the active Sodalists once a week for a period of two and one-half months during which time the rules of the Sodality were fully explained. A definite order of procedure was adhered to at each group meeting. The mental prayer which opened the meeting was followed by a reading of the Gospel for the coming Sunday. A commentary on this Gospel was read and discussed. This part of the meeting closed with the reading and explanation of various rules of the Sodality. Business pertaining to the individual group was next taken up. In the final portion of the meeting each Sodalist was assigned a task which he had to carry out before the next meeting and report on. These tasks look especially to the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy. Page 212 Sodality Meetings were conducted entirely by the group leaders. Secretaries took minutes of each meeting. The two officers (Leader and Secretary) of each group were elected by the members of that particular group. The men thus elected from all the groups together with those elected to represent the Arts Sodality in the Sodality Union constituted the Advisor)- Board or Council. From the members of the Council the officers of the entire Sodality were chosen by vote. Those elected were: Robert G. Eveld, Prefect; Rod Knop, Vice- prefect; James Muller, Secretary; Eugene Buckley, Treasurer. Though the Arts Sodality sponsored few activities of its own, it did cooperate with the Sodality Union in all its activities as well as with the various Sodalities of the University in their activities. This year Miss Jean Finnegan, a sophomore in the University College, was chosen candidate for Queen of the Sodality Union Fall Festival. Robert McLaughlin, an Arts Sodalist, was President of the Sodality Union this year. For the past four years Sodality meetings had been held in various classrooms. This year meetings were held in the Sodality Office which is situated on the second floor of Chouteau House. On Holy Thursday May Crowning court. the Second Annual Pilgrimage to the churches of Fer- guson and Florissant took place. For the fifth year, many Sodalists gave some time during the week to the teaching of Catechism.

Page 214 Commerce Sociality The Commerce and Finance Sodality has a two- fold objective — personal sanctification of its members and participation in effective Catholic Action. A Mass and Communion Breakfast and a Holy Hour were held each month; the recitation of the Rosary was held daily; catechists were supplied to various parishes and various social activities were conducted with a purpose of bringing the Catholic men and women of this University together in such a way that they might find their recreation under the auspices of the University. An earnest effort was made to arouse interest in the missions and to supply the missionaries with the necessary financial help. The sodality was able to collect $1,500.00 for the missions this year. The officers for 1947-1948 were: Joseph Jedlicka, Prefect; Cletus Ahrens, Vice-Prefect; Don Burnes, Recording Secretary; Bob Winkler, Corresponding Secretary; and Clyde Croy, Treasurer.

The Rev. Louis G. Fitzsim- mons, S.J., is moderator. Membership has increased this year by fifty per cent. The organization now numbers seventy-five members, thirty- five of whom were recently received at the general reception on December 8. The Sodality ' s program for the year included talks by Father Fitzsimmons which encompassed the nature, his- tory, purpose and manifestations of the Rosary. Among the other speakers were the Rev. Stephen Foley, S.J., and Msgr. Fulton J. Sheen. One of the most impressive accomplishments of the Sodality has been the recitation of the Rosary every Tuesday. Other activities sponsored by the Sodality were monthly meetings at which a series of addresses were made by prom- inent Catholic jurists, lawyers and priests on the attitude of a Catholic lawyer toward pertinent issues of the day. Officers for this year were: James Cullen, Prefect; Frank Dorsey, Vice-Prefect; Robert Dowd, Secretary; George Hendricks, Treasurer; and Carl Gaertner, Sodality Union Representative.

The purpose of this sodality is to assist members of these two professions to better integrate their Catholicism and professional life by means of information and inspira- tion. The Sodalists met on one Sunday each month for a Communion breakfast. A special feature of the meeting which fol- lowed was the appearance of a guest speaker. Among those who addressed the sodalists at these meetings were the Rev. F. J. Corley, S.J., and the Rev. E. A. Conway, S.J.

Archi ive The 1948 Archive, University yearbook, com- memorates the One Hundred Thirtieth anniversary of the founding of St. Louis University. It is fitting that when the school itself is at a peak in its long history, its student annual should be the greatest ever published. Work on the yearbook was begun under the direction of Marybeth McNamara, University Col- lege senior, in September. The Reverend Edward A. Conway, S.J., new moderator of publications, appointed Jack Schweitzer, Arts College senior, as co-editor in October. Creating The Archive editors, striving for an outstanding pictorial review of the year ' s activities, have selected three thousand photographs of campus personalities and scenes for publication. There are approximately 350 pages in the book, the work of a student staff. This issue of the Archive is presented with the hope that it will be the history of a banner year re- corded in an artistic and entertaining manner.

Moderator The University Nezvs is published each week by the students of the University. In line with the increased enrollment this year, the size of the staff was greatly increased. For the first semester of this year, the News received the Associated Collegiate Press rating of All-American. The Reverend Edward A. Conway, S.J., was ap- pointed moderator in August of 1947, succeeding the Reverend Hubert H. McKemie, S.J. The U. News was there; they cover everything. Madman Jordan and Friend. Receiving an added impetus from the record-shattering influx of students, the University News, student weekly, ex- perienced a year of further expansion, improvement and inno- vation. The ACP Ail-American rating which the News re- ceived for last year ' s work provided a goal to seek and a stand- ard to maintain. An expanded reportorial staff and an almost complete turnover in editorial positions afforded the News a fresh start in launching a year ' s service to a growing student community. The staff played a prominent role in the organization of the St. Louis Intercollegiate Press Association this fall fol- lowing the convention of the Associated Collegiate Press. Major News officers during I947 4 8 were: Co-Editors, John J.

The St. Louis University Alumni Federation was formed in 1947 as a realistic combination of independent school associa- tions operating in unity. By increasing the power, prestige and activity of its member associations — and by direct help to individual alumni — it aims to build the cooperation, friendships and loyalty among St. Louis University alumni. In turn, this will increase the honor and standing in the community and in the nation of St. Louis University and its graduates. The Federation initiates and aids activities of the alumni associations of the various schools, coordinating their functions whenever possible. The Alumni Council, with representatives from all schools, and the Rev. Francis J O ' Hern, S.J., as faculty representative, forms the overall policies of the Federation. Every graduate of any school of the University is a member of the Alumni Federation. It is estimated that the organization represents over ten thousand living alumni and alumnae.

Koetting, Executive Secretary of the Federation, directs the activities of the Place- ment Service and the publication of the Alumni News. The Alumni Placement plan is a service offered by the Federation to assist graduates of the University in securing better positions or new jobs when they need them. A full- time placement director aids seniors and alumni of all schools when they are seeking employment and informs local and national firms of available University graduates. It also pro- vides an easy and efficient system through which alumni can pass information about openings in the business world to other alumni and new graduates. The Alumni News, quarterly magazine of interest to graduates of the U., returned in 1947 to the Alumni Federation offices. It had been published since the war by the University ' s Public Relations Office. The magazine features news of the University as it now operates, but it gives especially items of interest to graduates concerning the activities of their class- mates and of the Alumni associations.

Finn, S.J., again acted as moderator of the Acolytes Association. He is also moderator of Uni- versity Chapel Exercises. Gary Wheeler was Chief Acolyte. In general, the Society acted on its own, the mem- bers organizing and assigning duties among themselves. The University Acolytes Association continued during 1947-48 to function as it has in a long and vener- able past. Like other organizations of the School, this Society has increased its activities to keep abreast of the enlarged curriculum and student program. The duties of the members of the Acolytes Associa- tion were to serve Mass and assist the celebrant of stu- dent religious functions. Reorganized in 1946-47, the Association is respon- sible for seeing that in the spiritual activities of the stu- dents, which require the presence and assistance of Catholic acolytes, such young men are supplied. The primary purpose, however, of the University Acolyte Association is to give a few selected male stu- dents from the University ' s various schools an unusual opportunity for a closer participation in the spiritual functions of the institution. As such, the Society imposes both an honor and a sacred duty upon its members. The events in which the acolytes participate are almost synonymous with those of the University Ushers Society. They include the Friday morning Student Masses, the Sodality Reception on December 8, and the May Day Coronation of the Blessed Virgin in the spring. Members of the Association assisted in the activ- ities on the day of the Mass of the Holy Ghost and on the occasion of the Annual Memorial Mass. In December of 1947 the members of the Acolyte Association joined with the members of the Ushers Society for an annual dinner. This year it was held at the Edgewater Club. Miller gets the bag. Page 230 Ushers Society In view of the greatly increased enrollment of the post-war University, the University Ushers Society has expanded its membership to facilitate the handling of student chapel exercises. Ushers assisted principally at the weekly University Mass, of obligation to all North Campus Catholic students with classes on Friday morning. The presence of ushers at all the important student religious services obviated the difficulties arising from the overcrowded conditions caused by the increased in- flux of students. The conscientious efforts of the students who efficiently maintained order in the Friday exercises in the Arts Chapel, and the Upper and Lower Churchs deserve more than passing mention. Every week these young men we re on hand to seat the students, distribute and collect Missa Recitata booklets and attendance cards, take up the contributions for the missions, and direct the congregation to the proper exits after Mass. At functions which the entire undergraduate student body attended, such as the Mass of the Holy Ghost and the President ' s Convocation, the ushers were again pressed into service and proved themselves capable of handling the tremendous number of students. Until this year ushers were appointed by the deans of their various schools to serve in the society for one year terms. This year, however, membership was made on a voluntary basis to enable the organization to ade- quately handle student religious functions. Wheels! The members of the Ushers Society joined with the members of the University Acolytes Association in December for a joint banquet. Other than this annual party, the two groups are unrewarded for their efforts. The Rev. Edward E. Finn, S.J., moderator of Chapel Exercises, is also moderator of the Ushers Society. Jack Schweitzer was chief usher this year. Back Row, left to right: Jedlicka, Schweitzer, Beaslev, Kick, F., Pautler, Hoff, Rogers Front Row: Augsburger.

Harriman, Doris Curran; Staff Writer, Vincent Fox; Moderator, the Rev. Maurice B. McNamee, S.J. Not so eager, Sis Along with the post-war expansion in other lines of University endeavor, 1947-48 witnessed the revival of the undergraduate literary magazine, The Fleur de Lis, under the sponsorship of the department of English. With the Reverend Maurice B. McNamee, S.J., acting as moderator, a staff composed of students interested in creative writing, published four issues of the new Fleur de Lis. With the initial publication in November, a vener- able tradition was renewed. The idea of a literary magazine was first expressed by the Reverend Joseph A. Murphy, S.J., in 1899. A year later, Father Murphy left the University, eventually to become the Bishop of Belize, British Honduras. The Fleur de Lis was originally published in 1901. It was discontinued in May, 1942. The editorial mission of the present staff remains the same as that of the first members: To infiltrate Christian principles into all modes of local activity and to bring about the establishment of Christian attitudes. During 1947-48, the magazine depended heavily upon contributions from veteran-students, whose impres- sions and opinions of foreign lands and peoples proved both enlightening and entertaining. In keeping with its policy to seek and maintain proper balance, The Fleur de Lis sought both serious and humorous material, always attempting to keep its readers in touch with cur- rent modes of thinking, feeling and acting. Page 232 The Modern Schoolman The Modem Schoolman, ' a quarterly philo- sophical journal produced by the School of Philosophy and Science and the department of philosophy, brings the tenets of Thomism to scholars, teachers, students and the educated public throughout the world. Now in its twenty-fourth year of publica- tion, it is a recognized organ of Catholic philosophy and an important contributor to the Thomistic movement. Editors of The Modem Schoolman ' are mem- the School of Philosophy and Science or of the Uni- versity ' s department of philosophy or both. They are assisted by the student philosophers of the School. The magazine aims at defending, developing, and spreading philosophical truth, and at applying it to the problems of today. It gives special prominence to articles on fundamental Thomistic theory but also stresses articles on American and foreign philosophy. The Modem Schoolman ' s foreign correspond- ents — in the British Isles, Belgium and France, Latin America, and India — keep its readers acquainted with the state of philosophy all over the world. The journal, itself, by means of its subscriptions and ex- changes, has a world-wide circulation. In working to forward philosophical truth and apply it to contemporary problems while making it accessible to great numbers, The Modem School- man has helped to maintain the standards in phil- osophy and has assisted in publicizing the University favorably throughout the world.

Coonan, Dr. Weinschel The Historical Bulletin, international pub- lication of the University ' s department of his- tory, has grown in its quarter-century of exist- ence from a small mimeographed paper of a few pages, appearing irregularly several times a year, to an outstanding Catholic historical quarterly. Since the Bulletin leans rather jto exact scholar- ship than to popular appeal, permanent; value in an article is preferred to mere felicity of phrase or a flashy style. Yet it has not been necessary to sacrifice read- ability to erudition. The Historical Bulletin draws favorable comment from readers in both the student and faculty spheres. 1947-48 was the 26th year of publication of the Historical Bulletin. The high scholarly standards set by the late Rev. Raymond A. Corrigan, S.J., for many years head of the department of history and editor of the magazine, have been consistently maintained by his successor, the Rev. John F. Bannon, S.J. The popular Historical Outline Series is published in conjunction with the Bulletin. The magazine has at present a wide circulation among secondary schools, colleges, and private scholars. It has subscribers in nearly every state of the union, Canada, England, South America and Australia. The Historical Bulletin intends to develop scholar- ship in the teacher and student of history rather than to present a popular appeal. Its list of contributors in- cludes names of scholars of high standing in the field of history in Europe as well as in the United States. Learned articles from professors in the University de- partment of history and those of other schools are featured in the magazine, which also reviews current his- torical books.

Page 234 Who ' s Who Twenty-six outstanding student leaders were selected this year for inclusion in the 1947-48 edition of Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Col- leges, a comprehensive index of the foremost students in the nation. Nineteen seniors and seven juniors were impartially chosen by the deans of the various schools for the list because of their outstanding character, scholarship, leadership and potentiality for future usefulness to busi- ness and society. The University recipients of the honor are: School of Dentistry seniors: Quentin M. Ringen- berg, Carleton G. Weisner. School of Law seniors: Thomas M. Hayes, Jr.; John C. Ashton. School of Nursing senior: Laverne Knapp. Parks College of Aeronautical Technology senior: Leo J. Mueller. Col- lege of Arts and Science seniors: John H. Schweitzer, J. Thomas Carroll. University College seniors: Mary- beth McNamara, Jo Frances Goeke, Roderick Knop. School of Medicine seniors: Francis T. Rafferty, Jr.; Francis J. Waickman. School of Social Service seniors: Schuyler B. Henehan, Rosemary Robinson. School of Commerce and Finance seniors: Daniel T. Miller, Law- rence W. Wismann, Virgil V. Fick, Patricia Pfeffer. School of Dentistry junior: Daniel B. Cotner. College of Arts and Science juniors: John J. Stanton, John J. McCarthy. School of Commerce and Finance juniors: Thomas J. Ziegenfuss, A. Robert Belscher. Institute of Technology junior: Glennon J. James. University College junior: Mary Lou Simon. Inclusion in Who ' s Who is an outstanding honor for a deserving student, a means of compensation for many hours of grueling, but necessary work. You don ' t savi Who ' s Who was first published for the year of 1934-35 after being heartily endorsed by numerous colleges and business executives, stu- dents, and undergraduate organizations who recognized it as an incentive for students to obtain the best results from their college ex- perience. The volume also acts as an authori- tative source for businessmen seeking employees with collegiate training. Back Row, left to right: Ringenberg, Weisner, McCarthy, James.

Moderator is Dr. William C. Korfmacher. Truly an all-University organization, the Classical Club completed in 1947-48 its nineteenth consecutive year of existence. Established in 1929, it draws its membership from the following units: The University proper, Maryville College, Webster College, and Font- bonne College. In successive order the officers come from these four institutions, and by rotation of offices every four years each member-school holds the presi- dency. In the same way, each institution contributes to the several programs held every year. The Classical Club has constantly stiven to maintain its place as a medium for rousing interest in the classical languages and antiquities of Greece and Rome. During the past year it has been engaged in a popular study of Greek and Roman Drama. Dr. K. makes a few classic remarks. Page 236 Le Cercle ercie rrancais During the past school year, Le Cercle Francais, the undergraduate French society of the University, open to all interested students, has endeavored to create in its members a des ire for knowledge of the French language and French customs. Revived during the scholastic year 1946-47, after a wartime lapse of several years, the language club has flourished under the stimulus of the large influx of veteran-students into the University. They have brought to the organization fresh opinions and points of view received while they were in service abroad. Monthly meetings of Le Cercle Francais have pro- vided both educational activities and entertainment for club members and their guests. The program com- mittee has achieved this through the presentation of French plays and motion pictures, lectures about noted French writers and painters, discussions about places actually visited by club members abroad, skits and community singing. Le Cercle Francais also partici- pated in the joint tea sponsored in April by the modern language groups of the University, the first event of this nature to be given here. Le Cercle Francais has achieved its primary goal during 1947-48 of instilling in the student an under- standing and appreciation for the cultural and social contributions of the French people to world progress. In addition, it has brought to his attention the important part these contributions have played in the founding of St. Louis University. Joe Drabelle sounds the attack at basketball gam ' .

Povard, Vila, Mr. Vargas, Sherman, Finnegan, Moline La Union Panamericana, University Span- ish Club, was first organized in November, 1939, by a group of students who desired a greater knowledge of the Spanish language, customs, and culture, under the direction of Dr. Joseph F. Privatera of the department of modern languages. Within a few short years, it has grown tremendously and en- larged both its interests and influence by becoming an affiliate of the Pan-American League. Temporarily abandoned during the war years, La LJnion Panamericana was reor- ganized in September, 1945 by Mr. Homero Castillo, also a member of the department of modern languages. Succeeding years have been witness to enormous expansion of the club ' s membership roll and a diversification of its activities. During 1947-48 the or- ganization was under the direction of Mr. Estaban Vargas, instructor in Spanish. Approximately fifty members attended the monthly meetings of La Union Panamer- icana, although the society includes many others unable to make each meeting. As in past years, travelogues and educational motion pictures were prominent features of these meetings. Talks on the South Amer- ican and Central American nations had a prominent place on the programs. A unique party was sponsored by the Spanish Club on November 22. Entitled a Mexican Hayride, it was held at Green Valley Ranch and combined a hayride with a dance. Student entertainments livened up meet- ings of La Union Panamericana. Especially successful was an I.Q. Contest, conducted in Spanish. Members also participated in a radio program on Pan American relations, and at the International Tea sponsored by the University language clubs. Getting all that, Rodger? One good skate to another.

The International Relations Club, open to all students, seeks to stimulate student interest in world affairs through investigation into the why and wherefore of present inter- national problems. Like many other international relations organizations on campuses throughout the country, the Club here is affiliated with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Meetings of the IRC are held every other week. The year ' s program is purposely flex- ible to allow the introduction of new or un- expected international developments. Lec- tures by students are stressed, though ad- dresses are frequently given by noted guests, experienced in the fields of history, economics, government and politics. Through the past school year the Uni- versity society participated in the annua! Webster College Student Panel Discussion, sent an observer to the state-wide meeting of the Intercollegiate United Nations Asso- ciation and also sent several delegates to the regional convention of the United Nations Association. Founded in 1933 by Dr. Paul G. Stein- bicker of the department of history and government, the International Relations Club, holds a place of unique importance among the extra-curricular organizations at St. Louis University. Its value takes on increased stature considered in the light of the in- creasingly complex foreign situations of our times. As a member of the International Rela- tions Club, one gains not only insight into world affairs but lasting friendships as well. First semester officers of the IRC were Joseph Lueke, Etienne Celier, John Fulks, and Patricia Luce. The Reverend Gregory Huger, S.J., is the present moderator of the or- ganization.  . Page 240 Sociology Club The purpose of the Sociology Club, open to all interested persons, has long been one of service and fulfillment of needs of students of social conditions. During 1947-48 it has sought the application of social thought in concrete experience; it has promoted student activity by directing the interests and abilities of its 168 members, and it has broadened student attitudes and en- couraged original thinking. It has done all this through a varied program of interesting activities. Monthly meetings of the Club featured novelty programs or guest speakers. The group held panel discussions and saw films with sociological implications. Members made field trips to various civic institutions. Social events were integrated with regular meetings, culminating in the annual Club picnic. This year new equipment was purchased by the Club; and major activities, such as the Club Journal, were inaugurated. Officers: President, Vincent Fox; Vice-President, James Salvatore; Recording Secretary, Florence Mulhall; Corresponding Secretary, Jack Curtis. Moderator of the Sociology Club was Dr. Clement S.

To achieve this admittedly difficult goal, it sponsors worthwhile leisure time ac- tivities. Two students from each branch of nursing represent their group on the governing board of the society. Officers are rotated from the various groups to insure general interest in the organiza- tion. This year nursing students spon- sored several successful social events including a Tacky Party in the Fall, Winter and Spring Formal Dances, and a Senior Banquet. The club also pre- sented a Leap Year Dance to which the entire University was invited. Largely responsible for the success of such activities were the fifteen officers and board members of NSO.

It was originally revived in 1946 by the Rev- erend Francis J. O ' Hern, S.J., then dean of men. History repeats itself. The navy blue uniforms of the sixty-odd members of the musical organization have become a familiar and welcome sight at Billiken events to the thousands of students and friends of the University. Mr. Libero Monachesi, now completing his second year as bandmaster, has enlarged the society to its present strength, sounding a call for members several times during the year. In his endeavor to make the University Band one of the finest collegiate aggrega- tions in the United States, the energetic director has been solidly backed by the Reverend Neil P. McManus, S.J., who assumed the office of band moderator when he succeeded Father O ' Hern as dean of men. Mr. Monachesi is a graduate of the University of Illinois, where he received his master ' s degree. In addition to his work at the University, he has conducted the band and orchestra at Southwest High School in Saint Louis for the past ten years. It is largely through his efforts that the Band has achieved its present enviable position among collegiate musical organizations. During the scholastic year, the University Band had the distinction of appearing at all the home games of the Blue and White football and basketball squads, and was often accorded the accolade of being a chief factor in the rejuvenated school spirit shown at these contests. The Band, marching in trim uniforms, were an impressive addition to the city-wide parades staged by University students at Homecoming time and when the Bills returned from New York, victors of the National Invitational Basketball Tournament. Page 244 Band The tradition of an all-student group of musicians is an ancient and honorable one at the University. For many years, long before women were admitted to the school, a University Band or Orchestra was a recognized and respected extra-curricular organization. But for almost a decade students were without a student music society. With the influx of veterans following the war, the feat of re-establishing a University Band became a not impossible if difficult achievement. In large meas- ure, the enthusiasm of the Reverend Patrick J. Holloran, S.J., President of the University, is responsible for the initial attempt to revive a time honored organization. Up from the ranks of the Band have come several talented individual performers who have successfully formed a dance orchestra made up of University students. The Band endeavors to pay its way wherever it goes by sponsoring an annual concert to defray the ex- penses incurred by the purchase of new uniforms and instruments. This year, the program was presented during April before an enthusiastic audience of students and friends. An indication of the Band ' s versatility, the repetory ranged fro m classical and semi-classical compositions, through spirited marches, to popular dance melodies and novelty tunes. Two appearances at which the Band scored a dis- tinct hit were the Fall and Spring Jamborees. But, in general, this popular organization will be best remem- bered for pepping up rallies at Union Station and whip- ping up spirit at chilly football games and tense basket- ball contests.

Its officers were those of the Mixed Chorus, and its functions were closely allied to those of that organization. The Men ' s Glee Club aims to foster good fellowship and appreciation of music throughout the University. Membership- is open to all male students of any school. Under the direction of Mr. Charles Galloway, who also directs the vocal activ- ities of the Mixed Chorus, the Men ' s Glee Club has successfully lived up to the high standards set by the society in previous years. The tradition of an exclusively male singing group in the University ' s extracurricular activity program is an ancient one. It was at the first concert given by the Club in the University Library that the beloved Varsity Song was intro- duced, later to become an official Uni- versity song. During the scholastic year 1947-48, the Men ' s Glee Club worked jointly with the University Mixed Chrous, most of its members belonging to both groups. The group concentrated during the year on music of the lighter variety, specializing- in sea chanties and rousing spirituals. The Glee Club scored a direct hit in its appearance with the Chorus at the Winter Concert and in its performance at the Sodality May Crowning. Top: For meritorious service Bottom: Just dancing. Page 246 Mixed Chorus An enlarged choral organization, again under the direction of Mr. Charles Galloway, enjoyed a successful year during 1947-48. In its 27th season the Mixed Chorus presented two concerts, participated in several all-University functions, aided in the collection of Tuberculosis funds, and practiced strenuously every week. At the annual Winter Concert on January 15, the Chrous stressed music in the lighter vein. Its most impressive program, however, was the inspiring Mozart Twelfth Mass given at the Spring Concert. The rousing numbers at the Fall and Spring Jamborees were en- thusiastically received. Officers of this society, open to all students, were: President, Harry Clark; Vice President, Mary Van Sant; Secretary, George Cline; Treasurer, Anna Mae Petersen; Librarian, Bob Kelley.

The University Playhouse Club presents unusual and varied opportunities for experimental work to those students interested in all phases of the legitimate theater. Under expert direction they are offered actual practice in directing, acting, costuming, stage lighting and setting, makeup, business and publicity. Fifty-six members were accepted for work in the Club during 1947-48 after the intitial organizational meeting late in September. The society decided to meet on the first and third Thursdays of each month. In accord with a policy established several years ago, the Playhouse Club again specialized in workshop productions. The Slave With Two Faces , the first presentation of the season was given in arena style and was followed by such short plays as The Master ' s Touch, an original drama by Al Dunkin, a member of the Club; Miracle On The Danube , and The Trojan Women, an adaptation from the original of Euripedes. These productions were the work of student casts and crews. A full-length major production was presented for the public in December. A three act, award-winning show, Lynn Riggs ' Green Grow the Lilacs had fourteen major characters and six settings. It called for singing as well as dramatic ability. Members of the Playhouse Club and its directors took part in the Conclave-sponsored variety show, Rev- elations of 1948 during April. Early in May the department of speech announced the establishment of a local chapter of Alpha Psi Omega, national dramatic fraternity, membership in which indicates both ability and service in the field of the theater. Several Playhouse Club veterans became the charter members of Kappa Omega chapter, and thus brought to a brilliant conclusion another successful dramatic season at the University. Page 248 League of Women Voters The St. Louis University branch of the Missouri League of Women Voters, open to all interested Uni- versity women students, is completing its first full year. Originally inaugurated in the late spring of 1947- by a group of undergraduates with the aid of Mrs. Samuel Johnson, wife of Dr. Samuel Johnson of the department of history, this young organization has endeavored to keep Catholic college women abreast of current national and international affairs. At the same time, it has kept in mind the primary purpose behind the foundation of the League following World War I; that is, to instill in women a desire to actively and intelligently participate in local and general elections. Guest speakers from the University faculty and from the offices of the senior branches of the League led and enlivened discussions in such topics as The Marshall Plan and The United Nations Economic, Scientific and Cultural Organization. Meetings were held in the evening to which all interested students were invited. College-level groups in the League are a recent in- novation, but they are proving so successful that several colleges in the surrounding area have formed branches. These organizations were appealed to by LTniversity members when they conducted a two weeks drive this spring, urging college students and faculty members to write their senators and congressmen in support of an adequate Displaced Persons Bill. Oh You Kid! 23 Skidoo! The following girls served as officers of the League of Women Voters during 1947-48: President, Mary Esther Finnegan; Secretary, Mary Alice Lee; Treasurer, Patricia Ford. The organization has two moderators, one from the League, one from the University faculty. They are, respectively, Mrs. Tommie Tobin Carlin, and Dr. Paul G. Steinbicker, of the department of government. Back Row, left to right: Povard, Darmody, Finnegan, J. M , Finnegan. J. A . Nawrocki, S.ierman Front Row: Balanag, Roche, Finnegan, M. E., McNamara.

It offers those who are interested in radio and broadcasting an opportunity for experimental train- ing in an ever-expanding field. Under the direction of Mr. Alex Buchan of the department of speech, members of the Work- shop discuss and learn the various techniques of radio writing, producing, acting, announcing and engineering. Original programs, managed by the students, are transcribed, simulating all the con- ditions of actual broadcast. Radio Workshop The thirty-odd members of the Radio Work- shop meet ever}- Saturday morning in the rooms they occupy on the fourth floor of the School of Law building. Here are located the studio and control room, used by the members in their recordings of broadcasts and play-back sessions. Auditions for roles in the student productions and meetings of the organization are also held here. Members of the Workshop have been offered a great deal of actual radio work on programs and series broadcast by the University radio stations, WEW and WEW-FM. With the increasing importance of radio and its allied industries becoming more noticeable daily, the University is expanding its facilities to accommodate radio-minded students. It is hoped that soon Radio Workshop members will be awarded scholastic credit for participation in this, extracurricular activity.

Fitzsimmons, Muller, J., Moore, Browning Debate Club With a year of valuable post-war experience behind it, the re-vamped Debate Club began 1947- 48 with its membership more than doubled. The society immediately set up a comprehensive pro- gram. Its moderator, the Reverend Louis G. Fitzsimmons, S.J., regent of the School of Law, offered three semester hours of credit for extensive debating activity to qualified students. Non- credit members spent two hours a week in October and November presenting and discussing papers on Communism. The University debaters acquitted themselves well in the Kirksville tournament held in Decem- ber, scoring a tie for first place in the second men ' s division as well as several other wins in the other divisions. But activity really got under way in February, when club members presented an average of two debates a w eek before local audiences. Highlight- ing the several tournaments during the year were the junket to Indiana University and the Pi Kappa Delta provincial meet. After weighing the merits of joining a national honorary forensic fraternity, the Debate Club made formal application for the establishment of a local chapter of Pi Kappa Delta. The new chapter was inaugurated in ceremonies on February 29. Such an ambitious program meant work for the Debate Club members, but they found time to re- lax at the several parties sponsored by the society during the year. Officers for 1947-48 were: Man- ager, James L. Muller; Publicity, Richard Federer; Secretary, Nellie Browning; Librarian, Thomas Langan; Moderator, the Rev. Louis G. Fitzsim- mons, S.J. ' Make mine on rye. ' Page 251 The Mayors — Present, Past, Future? The following officers directed the activities of the Public Health Nurses Club during 1947-48 Chairman, Muriel Ruddy; Vice-Chairman, Jane Startgman; Recording Secretary, Gloria Pierce; Corresponding Secretary, Minnie Felippone; Treasurer, Jeanne Council. Miss Helen Kinney acted as moderator. Publi IC Health Nurses Club The Public Health Nurses Club, inaugurated at the University in 1946-47, functioned very successfully during its second year. The new group boosted its membership to thirty-five and was formally recognized early in the fall semester by the University adminis- tration. The primary purpose of the new organization is to acquaint socially those who are interested in the ex- panding field of public health nursing. To achieve this aim the club holds dinners and gives parties, on an informal and friendly basis rather than a strictly business level. For instance, during 1947-48, the Public Health Nurses toured St. Louis to introduce their out-of-town members to the city. They also visited the famous Goldenrod Showboat, mecca for those seeking the fun- filled atmosphere of old time mellerdrama. But to augment the knowledge of its members, the Public Health Nurses Club has its more serious moments. At its monthly business meetings this year, the club sponsored lectures by experts in fields related to the broad one of public health nursing. It was hoped that through this means those associated in a social way might enlarge their scope of knowledge for their relation- ships on a professional basis. Page 252 Parks Camera Club The Camera Club of Parks Air College, organized during the fall term of 1945, has a twofold purpose. It is designed, first of all, to enable amateur photographers to continue their hobby and, secondly, to aid in teaching beginners the fundamentals of photography. Member- ship is open to any interested Parks student. A fully equipped dark room is maintained on the school campus, accessible to the members of the club at any time. Advanced students do photographic work for the College, including publicity, record and aerial photography. Meetings, held once a month, give members an opportunity to present their experiences in new tech- niques and pass on helpful ideas. Short, informative talks, delivered by members who are specialists in cer- tain fields, aid the beginners. Professional photogra- phers are invited to lecture on some subject of com- mercial importance. Contests are held regularly by the club to encourage each member to improve the quality of his work. Members compete with each other, exhibiting their photographs, the best of which are awarded prizes. Thus, the Parks Camera Club provides a well rounded program for an extracurricular activity. It furthers the student ' s interest in his hobby through the education and fun it provides. At the same time it gives club members an opportunity to realize a small income from this chosen hobby. That the Camera Club supplies a definite need in the life of Parks students is evident from the fact of its steady growth in it s short span of existence. Can that be a mistletoe?

In the fall of 1946, a group of Aeronautical Engineer- ing students at Parks College formed a student branch of the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences, a national scientific society, for the purpose of advancing and disseminating knowledge of the theory and practice of the aeronautical sciences. They also aimed to provide an opportunity to become acquainted with the personnel and activities of the Institute and to encourage pro- fessional consciousness and fellowship. The new group was officially approved in January, 1947, and has rapidly attained a membership of 56. Only students enrolled in Aeronautical Engineering who have completed three terms of prescribed work are eligible for membership in the Parks IAS. The new organization holds business meetings, technical meet- ings, field trips and social affairs. Technical meetings feature speakers from the aviation industry, technical papers, or the showing of technical aeronautical films. Members of IAS have the privilege of borrowing books from the various libraries of the Institute and have access to its other services. One of the main events in the student branch is the presentation of the awards offered annually by the Institute and the local group- One is made to a senior student member for attaining the best scholastic record in aeronautical engineering during his junior and senior years. Another is presented to the senior student member who gives the best lecture at a regular meeting of the branch. IAS, over 6,000 strong, is recognized by the air- craft industry as its representative engineering and scientific society. Society of Automotive Engineers Feeling the need of a society to further the advance- ment and dissemination of knowledge pertaining to aviation and its related fields, instructors and students of the University ' s Parks College of Aeronautical Tech- nology have organized on its campus a branch of a national engineering club, the Society of Automotive Engineers. Begun in January of 1947, the local Society has in one year attained a membership of 104, making it the fourth largest group in any college or university in the United States. Much of the credit for the success of the club and its phenomenal growth is due to Mr. Frank Meyers, first moderator, Richard J. Mylin, first president, and to the charter members of the 8 rou P- . . The SAE, in order to acquaint its members with present conditions and problems of the aviation industry, holds monthly meetings at which guest experts in the field present the current situation in aeronautics. A mutual benefit is gained under this system: through it both the student and school are favorably presented to industry, and various phases of aviation unfamiliar to the student are brought to his attention. A thorough knowledge of aviation and its related fields and acquaintance with the activities of the in- dustry are of utmost importance to the Parks student, for industry today demands that its employees have a broad, accurate knowledge of the field they are to enter. The Society of Automotive Engineers aims to help the student attain this goal. One more year of similar growth should find the University branch of the Society leading the nation on the collegiate level, surpassing even the amazing achievements of 1947-48. Ercoupe Coming in at II o ' clock. The officers of the Society of Automotive Engineers for the scholastic year 1947-48 are: president, Melvin W. Peter; vice-president, Daniel J. Hamernik; secretary, Brian E. Boyle; and treasurer, Maynard J. VVege. Mr. John T. Harrington of the Parks faculty has suc- ceeded Mr. Frank Meyers as moderator of the group.

The comradeship existing between the men of the United States Air Forces could not be forgotten after the end of World War II by those who flew and those who kept them flying. Out of this notion came the Air Force Association, born in January, 1945. The idea spread rapidly, groups and squadrons of veterans or- ganizing throughout the nation, until the society reached Parks College of Aeronautical Technology, where a chapter of AFA was formed in May, 1947. The organizers of the Parks squadron were Daniel E. Rutkovitz, student, and Woosley M. Kane, instructor, first commander and vice-commander respectively of the new group. Within a few weeks after the initial meeting in May, the organization had grown and its charter was sent to national headquarters of AFA. Today the membership list of the local chapter is still increasing, although the organization had only twenty- five charter members. It aims to enfold all ex-Air Force men at Parks into the squadron. The purposes of AFA are few but of strong meaning. They are to foster and perpetuate the comradeship that had risen out of the Air Forces; to help maintain and support the Air Forces Aid Society which helps disabled and other veterans of the Air Forces; and, above all, to bring back to America the leading position it pos- sessed at the end of the war. The slogan used and re- peated over and over by the members of the Air Force Association is Air Power Is Peace Power. The endeavors of an earnest group of peace-minded citizens, especially former servicemen, cannot be dis- counted in these years of crisis. Parks Varsity Club The Varsity Club of Parks College of Aeronautical Technology was first organized during the scholastic year of 1943, after the successful completion of a season in intercollegiate athletic competition. The nine men who were recipients of varsity letter awards composed the original constitution of the Parks College Varsity Club. Unfortunately, shortly after this auspicious beginning, the society was disbanded because of the dis- continuance of intercollegiate athletics during war time. In 1946, Parks revived an intramural program. The termination of the first post-war athletic season found ten aspiring young men sporting the Parks monogram. On March 12, 1946, these men with the assistance of Coach Robert Walsh reorganized the inactive Varsity Club. The motto of the organization was selected by these ten members, who hoped it would express the aims and desires of the entire Club. It is Julius Caesar ' s famous remark, Veni, Vidi, Yici ... I came, I saw, I con- quered. The primary purpose of the Club is to promote inter- collegiate athletics at the College. It attempts to stimulate an interest in athletics throughout the student body. This aim is accomplished by obtaining films of outstanding sports events and presenting them before the students. Social activities consist of the entire membership attending local sports events. In addition, an annual dance is held in honor of the men who that year have been awarded Varsity monograms. That ' s how to get a letter. The officers who directed the activities of the Varsity Club of Parks College of Aero- nautical Technology during 1947-48 are: Presi- dent, David Gherlone; Vice President, Willard Wright; Secretary, Richard Cheny; Treasurer, Malcolm Bean.

Closely associated with the Classical Club in its program activities is the local Chapter of the National Honorary Classical Fraternity, Eta Sigma Phi. Beta Zeta Chapter was erected at the University on June 25, 1941. Since that date the chapter has displayed an enviable record of activity. It has numerous social activities, and it has sponsored an annual high school Latin Contest for the Catholic secondary schools of Saint Louis and the vicinity, and an annual freshman Latin Contest for the schools of the Univer- sity. In addition, members of the chapter have served as Grand National Secretary and Grand National President. At the present time the office of the Faculty Execu- tive Secretary of the Fraternity and Editor of the Nuntius, national organ of the Fraternity, is at the University. The National Convention of Eta Sigma Phi was held in St. Louis April 5 and 6. Members of the University and Washington University Chapters were co-hosts. Pi G amma Mu The Lambda Chapter of Pi Gamma Mu, the National Social Science Honor Society, was established at the University on January 14, 1948, through the instrumentality of Dr. Clement S. Mihanovich of the department of sociology. Thirty-two members were elected to this chapter according to their scholastic achievements which must have been twenty semester hours of social science with an average grade therein of not less than B or 85%. The purpose of the chapter is The inculcation of ideals of scholarship and social service in the study of social problems. It aims to instill in the mind of the individual a scientific attitude toward all social questions. It strives for more cooperation among students of the several branches of social science, all of which must make contributions of knowledge if social problems are to be solved. At the initiation banquet held on February 29, Father Mallon of the department of history congratu- lated the group on their achievements and called for the extension and activation of the chapter.

The mother chapter is at Loyola University, Chicago. Beta of ADG sponsored a picnic- dance last summer, an annual Christmas formal at Hotel DeSoto and a spring formal at Glen Echo Country Club. Several informal parties, an open house for Kappa Beta Gamma sorority members and pledges, and ADG alumni stag were other social highlights. The fraternity made a group retreat at White House during the Christmas holi- days. It entered a float in the homecom- ing parade, presented a skit at the Spring Jamboree in the gymnasium, and com- peted in intramural athletics. Top: What a howl — huh, Jeanne?

Although the fraternity is primarily a social or- ganization, its secondary purpose is the promotion of the religious and scholastic welfare of its members. Fr.

Delta Sigma Pi, an international professional fra- ternity in the field of commerce and business admin- istration, was founded at New York University in 1907. Since that time it has grown to its present strength of 65 undergraduate chapters in the major universities and colleges throughout the United States and Canada. Beta Sigma chapter at the University, with a membership of 523 is the second largest chapter of the international group. Activities for the year have been centered around the promotion of closer relations between the commercial world and students of commerce by the sponsoring of a series of professional meetings with speakers who are recognized as authorities in their respec- tive commercial fields. Delta Theta Phi Delta Theta Phi, which is the oldest professional legal fraternity in America, was founded in 1902. Its membership is numbered in excess of twenty thousand -with chapters, known as senates, in seventy-five law schools in the country. The Bakewell Senate of the University was established in 1922. Its activity- was suspended during the war when the Law School was temporarily closed. This senate was revived in the fall of 1 246. As the fraternity is professional in character, it does not have the extensive social program of regular college fraternities. The primary purpose of Delta Theta Phi is to promote the study of law, and the majority of its functions are devoted toward this aim. However, the social side of the fraternity is not com- pletely neglected, as is evidenced by the annual Spring Formal. In January the Master of the Rolls added twenty- six names to the roster of Bakewell Senate as an initiation was held in the Civil Courts Building. This addition increased the total membership at the University to -fifty-eight. j Dean Vice-Dean . Clerk of Rolls Clerk of Exchequer Master of Ritual Fire One!

Two dances, a camping trip, an annual outing and various public functions were attended en masse by the fraternity brothers. Selections for these public functions were taken from the schedules of the Forest Park Theatre, the American Theatre and Kiel Auditorium. Besides these social gatherings the fraternity has cooperated wholeheartedly by assisting in the functions the Student Council sponsored on the Parks campus or the Student Conclave sponsored for the University.

The Alpha Chapter of Phi Alpha Chi, founded at Parks College of Aeronautical Technology on October 18, 1941, is run on a cooperative basis with fellowship and brotherhood as predominant aims. The active membership of the fraternity is limited to forty members who must have completed five full terms at Parks College. Pledging is performed each term of the school year. Prior to the initiation cere- monies the prospective members are observed for those qualities that are necessary for membership. Phi Beta Pi The Lambda Chapter of Phi Beta Phi Fraternity held its annual John Auer Lectureship in November at the St. Louis Medical Society Auditorium. The speaker was Dr. Reginald Smithwick of Massachusetts Memorial Hospital, Boston. This lectureship honors Dr. John Auer who was professor of pharmacology at the Uni- versity. The Annual Spring Formal was held at the Sheraton Hotel. At this time the alumni of the fraternity were honored by the active members. House parties are given monthly, at which time school is forgotten for awhile and much needed relaxation is obtained. Seminars are held bi-weekly for the freshmen pledges. These consist of informal gatherings of the men with some member of the faculty. Problems in the particular field under discussion are brought up and clarified for the benefit of the members. This is indeed a great help for the students and accomplishes one of the main aims of the fraternity, namely, to aid the members in their scholastic training as well as to implant in them the feel- ing of mutual comradeship among the medical profession.

The Delta Delta Chapter was chartered at the University School of Dentistry in 1944, and it is the only chapter of Alpha Phi Omega to be located in a professional school. Delta Delta Chapter has been active in the American Red Cross, March of Dimes and Cum- munitv Chest drives.

Psi Omega is an international dental fraternity which was established at the Baltimore College of Surgery in 1893. The Beta Zeta chapter was founded at the University in 1902. The aims of Psi Omega are to cultivate the social qualities of the members, to assist the members in their studies, and to advance the methods of teach- ing, of practice, and of jurisprudence in the dental profession. The Beta Zeta chapter depends upon loyal alumni for help in solving the difficulties of the members in respect to school work and fraternity regulations. On the social side, several informal parties were given for members and their guests. Page 278 Delta Sigma Delta Delta Sigma Delta, an international dental fra- ternity, was founded at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry in 1882. The University chapter, Omicron, was established on February 15, 1901. Meetings are held semi-monthly. Guidance and assistance are rendered by Dr. Virgil Kimmey, Deputy Supreme Grand Master, and by Dr. Douglas Lyon, Assistant Deputy Supreme Grand Master. The purpose of the fraternity is to maintain the high standards of dentistry by inculcating in the minds of dental students and practitioners a spirit of fraternal cooperation toward scientific, ethical, and professional progress. To assist in attaining these ideals, alumni and technical representatives of commercial concerns de- voted to dental research give lectures and demonstrations on various aspects of dentistry at regular intervals.

The main purpose of this dental fraternity is to provide a better foundation upon which to prepare for a successful professional life, and to develop lasting friend- ships with associated colleagues. Curriculum for the year was well planned. The Annual Zip Hay Ride was the first function of the year. This was followed by the annual get-together with fraternity brothers of Washington University. Others were the yearly Big Brothers Days, the Inter- Fraternity Spring Dance and the Senior Party. Alumni faculty members of Alpha Omega Chapter are: Dr. William H. Bauer, B.S., M.D., D.D.S.; Dr. J.

Each of the fraternities nominates two delegates to the council which meets at the school at two-week intervals. The purpose of the organization, which is unique, in that it is the only interfraternity council on the campus, is to discuss mutual problems and to plan activities in which the four fraternities participate.

McManus, S.J., was again in charge of the Athletic Board. Since assuming his position, following the resignation of the Reverend Francis J. O ' Hern, S.J., in 1947, Father McManus has been zealously performing his various and unending duties, often accompanying the teams on their trips. He has encountered many difficulties in his first complete year. Among the many problems facing him were the tasks of obtaining a new head football coach and staff, as well as serving on a Missouri Valley Con- ference Board which examined the petitions of Detroit University and Bradley University, both seeking and later gaining admission to the Conference. The Reverend Neil P. McManus, S.J. Chairman of the Athletic Board Page 2S4 Athletic Council — New Coach After weeks of earnest endeavor, the Athletic Board under the guidance of The Reverend Neil P. McManus, S.J., announced the appointment of Joseph V. Maniaci, who will replace W. J. Dukes Duford as head football coach at the University. Assisting Maniaci will be Phil Ragazzo and Ed Brominski, while Al Caniglia has been appointed as head freshman football coach. The 34-year-old Fordham University graduate brings with him an impressive record, having never coached a losing eleven. He led the Bainbridge, Md., team to nineteen consecutive victories and last season coached the Paterson N. J., professional team to the Eastern Division title in the American League. Aiding the Reverend Neil P. McManus, S.J., on the Athletic Board are Alfred F. McKenzie, Secretary; Edward G. Marsh, Dr. Thomas M. Martin, Fr. Francis J. O ' Reilly, S.J., and Frank L. Ramciotti. These men are deserving of great credit for the immense job which they handled so capably, many times slighting their business and social lives in the face of so many difficulties, for this was a year pro- vided with many headaches, which culminated in the grateful accept- ance of the National Invitational bid to the University basketball team. Warne Boecklen was director of sports publicity, Bill Durney acted as business manager of athletics and Bob Bauman again served as trainer. All of these men have more than capably accomplished their duties and deserve all the recognition which they have received. Joe Maniaci, New Football Coach.

Dukes Duford, after eight years as athletic director and head foot- ball coach at the University, resigned this past year after completing a somewhat dismal football season, replete with mixed success and failure. The remainder of the staff, Dick Weber, Bob Klenck, Carl Mulleneaux and Joe Drabelle, joined Duford in tendering their resignations. The 1947 football team finished the season with a four won and six lost record. Duford ' s teams at St. Louis University compiled a record of 24 won, 32 lost and 2 tied. Duford began his athletic career at Marquette University, where he was a star on both the football and basketball teams for three years. Before coming here, he led the St. Ambrose eleven to a modern record of 31 straight victories. Page 2S6 Football Billikens, - Missouri, 19 The opening game of the 1947 football season saw the Billikens badly stymied by the free-wheeling Tiger backfield. The game, attended by rivalry and 17,000 fans at Memorial Stadium in Columbia, Missouri, gave Mizzou a chance to show off their new talent in holding the Bills scoreless in a 19-0 show. Although threatening repeatedly in the opening quarter and early in the second, it wasn ' t until only three minutes remained in the first half that the Tigers hit pay-dirt. This first touchdown came by way of a 67- yard march by Missouri, Braznell winging to Hulse for a 33-y ar d touchdown play. Mizzou ' s Bill Da}- con- verted, giving the Bengals a 7-0 lead. Freddy Broeg, receiving the second-half kick-off skirted up the sidelines to bring the ball to his own 47. From there the Bills drove on to the Tigers ' 27, where their effort was stopped by Mizzou ' s interception of a pass on its own 10-yard line. The rest of the third quarter was relatively d ull until the Bills fumbled on their own 30 with a minute of the stanza left. The Bengals promptly took possession of the pigskin and utilized four plays, two in the third and two in the fourth quarter, to tote the ball for six more points. Day carrying. The final counter came late in the last quarter as a result of a Billiken fumble and a punt return to the Bill Jack Rooney and Tom Hemp combine their efforts to bring down Rolla ball carrier. forty. Within five plays the Tigers were on the six- yard line, and Ed Quirk, former SLU High star, bulled his way for the final marker.

Before five minutes of play had elapsed, Pete Wismann crossed the Miners ' goal line to start a parade which lasted throughout the contest. From then on the question was how high the score would go. Coach Duford used all available substitutes, even to the extreme of using a guard at the end post, in order to hold down the score, but the Billikens weren ' t to be stopped. Even the linemen got into the act when Center Dick Goggins went over in the fourth quarter. From the very first kick-off, which sailed 60 yards, anyone could see the improvement in the Blue-White team. At Columbia they tackled high in what seemed to be a futile attempt to play rough, but against Rolla, low, hard tackles felled the runner every time. The pass was the most devastating weapon used. Two passes totaling 23 yards set up the first touchdown, and succeeding aerials con- tinued to tear apart the Miners ' defense. Ground play, however, functioned well enough to score eight of the nine touchdowns, Lee Alberts scoring on 15-yard and 40-yard runs. Tom Shea was automatic in kicking points after touchdowns, making 7 of 9.

Billikens, 23 - Marquette, 27 The Billikens stunned and outclassed the visiting Golden Avalanche of Marquette for two periods, but the enemy ' s aerial game was too good for the host Blue- and-White at Walsh Stadium before 10,000 fans. The first time St. Louis put the ball in play, Jack Rooney romped 53 yards for a six-pointer. Lou Jack- stadt ' s recovery of his own team ' s kick-off set up Tom Shea ' s 19-yard run which gave St. Louis another marker. Shea ' s perfect conversion gave the Bill ' s a thirteen-point lead after five minutes of play. In the second period, Marquette ' s first tally was matched by Al Mundwiller, who went over for the third time after two previous tallies had been called back. The Blue-and-White cooled off in the second half and Marquette roared back to gain a 20-20 tie in the final stanza. Shea revived St. Louis hopes with a field goal, but a pay-dirt pass by Robarge in the closing min- utes slid the Hilltoppers to a 27-23 victory.

C. The Hoyas spread formation was never able to function while the Bills, led by Jack Rooney, were a constant threat. With Tom Shea and Eddie Donohue carrying, and Carl Weisner with Harry Sortal receiving Rooney ' s passes, the Blue and White climaxed a 65-yard march as Sortal snagged a pass in the end zone for the first tally. Tom Shea converted to make the score 7-0. Vic Banonis donated two more points by sending a wild center into the end zone for a safety in the second period. The final marker of the evening was tallied by Roland Otto, who broke through to block a punt, scoop up the ball and race 33 yards to pay-dirt. Tom Shea again converted for the final point. Billikens, 41 - Drake, 12 A Homecoming crowd of 12,300 rabid fans was not only treated to an extremely rough-and-tough battle but also to a 41-12 win. Never threatened after the first period, the Bills rambled over the final chalkmark six times, Tom Hemp leading the parade with three six-pointers. Outstanding plays were at no minimum in the contest marred by seventeen penalties, seven by Drake, totaling one-hundred-five yards. The Bills were moved back for a total of ninety yards. Freddy Broeg and Jack Rooney combined their efforts to toss three touch- down passes and Jack Wuestling, Lee Alberts and Bill Dolan accounted for the three remaining markers scored by the Billikens. The Bulldog tallies were made by Metzger and Clark, the latter handing the crowd a thrill with a sensational 80-yard return of a Billiken punt.

Y. Coach Duford ' s men, though battered constantly by a big, hard-charging Brown Indian backfield, trailed by but one point at the halftime, then faded as the Bonaventure attack really started to function, rolling over the Bills at random. The Bills tallied in quick fashion, Lou Jackstadt recover- ing a fumble in the open- ing minutes; three plays later, Rooney tossed to End Harry Sortal for the first score of the game. Ed Donohue converted from placement. The score was tied quickly by Coach Hugh Devore ' s men. End Ed Shortal blocked a punt and Augie Garcia fell on the ball in the end zone for a short-lived lead.

Leading after every per- iod but the big, final stanza, which pays-off, the Bills were simply overpowered by the ram- paging Wolf Pack. Fred Broeg commenced the goalward parade in the first period, with a 31-yard heave to Dee Alberts, who went the remaining 16 yards for the touch- down. Jack Rooney climaxed a 78-yard drive by diving the final yard for another marker. Zeno and Kondel kept Nevada in the game with touchdowns. The Wolf Pack took the lead in the third period as Zeno coun- tered for the third score, his second of the day. Harry Sortal took care of the final Bill tally, recovering a Wolf Pack fumble and then taking a Rooney aerial on the one and falling into the end zone for the score.

The 38-6 final score came as no accident for statistics proved Wichita ' s superiority. Wichita amassed 337 yards to the Billikens ' 99 on the ground, while St. Louis completed eight of twenty-one aerials for a total of 105 yards to 60 yards by Wichita hurlers in only six attempts with three completions. The Blue-and-White did manage to score first. Taking a 6-0 lead and holding it for one quarter was probably the only consolation gained. It wasn ' t long until Wichita began to roll, capitalizing on Billiken miscues. The Billikens went over as the result of a Jack Rooney pass to Harry Sortal after six minutes of play. That was all for anyone but Wichita fans for Hodges hit Mike Knopick with a pass to knot the score, and the Shockers were off with Hodges, Houlik, Sexton, Hamil- ton and Kriwiel scoring in that fashion. Page 204 Billikens, 6 - Detroit, 37 Playing in knee-deep mud and a misting snow before a homecoming crowd of 5,000 fans at Detroit, the Billikens met a powerful Titan squad and were crushed 37-6. The only bright spots in the debacle were the punting of Ross Nagel and Bob Astroth ' s touchdown fling to Carl Weisner. The Billikens were never in the game as the Titans, leading in national offense and rushing, were scoring freely and had rolled to a thirty point lead before Astroth came up with his face-saving throw.

Duford ' s men got the jump on the Dukes when Stan James blocked a Du- quesne punt on their 27-yard line, deflect- ing it into the end zone where Augie Garcia fell on it for the initial touchdown. A few minutes later Ed Signaigo recovered a Duke fumble on their 19, and Broeg ' s toss to Garcia went for the second score. Shea converted each time to make it 14-0. In the second half, Duquesne ran an intercepted pass from our 35 to our 2. The Dukes tallied, then converted. By an aerial attack the visitors scored again in the last minute of the game.

Prospects Although next year ' s football preparations are as yet in the early stages, the new head foot- ball coach, Joe Maniaci, and his staff are eagerly looking forward to the coming season. Plans are already being mapped for the coming campaign. Five regulars have been lost by graduation and all will be difficult to replace, but Coach Maniaci is already working on the problem of adequate replacements. The men lost are Roland Otto, Bob Sweeney, Jack Rooney, Harry Sortal and the place-kicking specialist Tom Shea. The forward wall will be braced by the return of such men as Wuestling, Pappas, Jackstadt, Campbell, Signaigo, Garcia, Young and a host of others. Filling out this group is the All-Catholic tackle Ross Nagel. Returning to handle the aerial duty will be Broeg, Astroth and Baumeister. To fill out the other backfield positions will be Hemp, Dee and Lee Alberts, Obermeyer, Kiely, Don- ohue, Mundwiller, and Dolan. With this array of talent along with many new men coming up from the B squad, the new staff has a right to look ahead to great things. Perhaps ' 48 will be the big year. Captain Pete Wismann shakes hanc Rolla captain before opening home Page 299 Basketball Ed Hickey Basketball Coach Coach Eddie Hickey could not have been happier when that final whistle blew and the Billikens were con- querors, having defeated New York University for the National Invitational Championship. Yet it was a long, hard road to acquire that title which had been so elusive with respect to the Billiken mentor. Beginning his career in 1930 at Creighton Prep, Coach Hickey posted a brilliant record capturing fifty- six victories in fifty-eight games. Moving into college circles in 1935 at Creighton University, he continued his enviable record by capturing two Valley titles and once sharing the crown with the omnipresent Oklahoma Aggies. His tenure at Creighton was interrupted while serving three years as a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy and following his return to Creighton for the 1946-47 season, he moved on to St. Louis University. Having fallen short three times in striving for a national title, his fourth attempt was not to be a dis- appointment. Of all his great teams, this year ' s edition of the Billikens gave him the title he so desired. Coach Hickey predicted a great year and it was. Who knows, next year may be greater. Ed Macauley, sensational Billiken center, climaxed his third year of college basketball by gaining almost every available award for the 1947-48 season. It was Easy Ed ' s sensational play both offensively and defensively which led the Billikens to the greatest year in St. Louis basketball history. It was his brilliant all-around play that brought him the many deserved awards. He was the choice by all publications for the center post on their Ail- American quintets. He also was selected by a poll of both Coaches and by the fans for their All-American team, and for the second consecutive year has been named as Player of the Year by the Helms Athletic Foundation. This was only a beginning of the honors for Easy Ed as he was voted the outstanding player to appear in Madison Square Garden by the Metropolitan Basketball Writers ' Association. This is certainly one of the highest honors as every good team in the country appears here. To climax this surge to glory he was named Outstand- ing Player in the National Invitational Tournament. The most comforting thought is that Easy Ed will be around again for another season. All-American Ed Macauley Page 300 Missouri Valley Play Despite the many accomplishments of the Billiken basketball team, they were not successful in their attempt to retain the Valley crown which they captured for the first time in 1947. The Billikens were denied a repeat performance by one team, the Oklahoma Aggies, who twice upset the Billikens by narrow margins. The remainder of the Valley opponents found the Billikens an impregnable fortress, but the Aggies were not to be denied as they cleaned their slate and the Bills had to be content with second place. Wichita and Tulsa came closest to achieving the coveted upset desired by the underdog as both main- tained a narrow lead until the final moments when the tide was turned and the future Invitational Champions rambled to victory. Drake and Creighton did not prove dangerous though both managed to hold the score to decent proportions. Following the Aggies and Billikens in the standings were Drake, Tulsa, Creighton, and Wichita.

' Bill Durney, athletics ' business manager Ed Macauley and Joel Kaufman fight far the ball in tournament finale. National Tournament The St. Louis University Billikens are the National Invitational Tournament Champions. The charges of Coach Eddie Hickey could not have been more superb. Playing with the smooth-passing, fast-running attack they had exhibited during the regular season, the Billikens went around, over and through their fine oppo- nents. Eight teams were selected for the big meet. They represented the finest teams from every section of the country. Chosen for the tourna- ment were LaSalle, Western Kentucky, North Carolina State, Bowling Green, DePaul, New York U., Texas, and the Billikens. The drawings found the Bills facing the big team of the tournament in the opener, Bowling Green. It was a battle of height and backboard control against speed and finesse. The game was close for about ten minutes of the first half and then it was off to the races as the Bills turned on the heat and pulled away to a 36-21 halftime lead. The Falcons couldn ' t slow the Billikens down in the second half as every man on the squad got into the action. The result was a decisive 69-53 conquest of Bowling Green. Leading the Blue-White parade were Captain Danny Miller and Marv Schatz- man, each garnering twelve tallies. Following closely were D. C. Wilcutt and Bob Schmidt with eleven and ten points, respectively. Ail- American Ed Macauley counted only four points but he was invaluable defensively. Other quarterfinal results found DePaul up- setting North Carolina State, N. Y. U. edging Texas, and Western Kentucky trouncing La- Salle. For their semi-final match, the Bills were opposed by the Mountaineers of Western Ken- tucky. This was probably the toughest game of the year for the fighting Billikens as they had to be supreme to top the first-seeded Western Kentucky five. Not their fast break alone but their deter- mined drive and ability to come from behind gained for Eddie Hickey ' s popular quintet a Page 302 Invitation Champions deserved 60-53 semi-final victory over the rug- ged Mountaineers. Control was a major factor in the conquest, as St. Louis passed and stalled with amazing accuracy when it gained the upper hand. The Billikens continued their deadly aim under the basket as an average of .343 for field goal attempts was turned in for the evening ' s play. Western Kentucky elected to run with the Billikens and broke away to an early 16-6 lead, but aggressiveness paid off for the battlin ' Bills fought back to a 25-25 halftime tie. Early in the second half, the lead changed hands five times within a minute and ten seconds, but the Bills continued their sensa- tional play and pulled away to victory as Macauley rimmed nineteen points, Lehman thirteen, Schatzman ten, and Wilcutt nine. In the other semi-final match New York University easily disposed of DePaul with a 72-59 rout to join the Billikens in the Tourna- ment finals. The title clash saw the Billikens prove to be far superior to the Violets of N.Y.U. as they romped to an easy 65-52 decision. N.Y.U. enjoyed only one lead, that coming after two minutes of play as Ray Lumpp, N.Y.U. south- paw, dumped in a free throw for a 1-0 lead which Bob Schmidt matched immediately. After five minutes of play it was evident that the Bills were not to be denied, sweeping to a 25-18 half- time margin. After twenty-eight minutes the Bills had enlarged the margin to 41-24 and Ail- American Ed Macauley had already tallied his total of twenty-four points. it h but minutes remaining Coach Hickey began removing his regulars, each receiving a tremendous ovation as he left the court. A few minutes later the Billikens were real champions. Following Macauley ' s sensational display of shooting were Wilcutt with sixteen points, Ossola and Schmidt with five points each and Miller with four. The Bills could not have been better. Albert B.

Billikens, 90 - Arkansas State, 38 In the opening game of the season, the Billikens forewarned their fans of the great achievements they were to gain by demolishing a game but far inferior Arkansas State aggregation by the score of 90-38 at the University Gymnasium. With four players counting over ten markers each, with All-American Ed Macauley pacing the team with fifteen points, the new Billikens broke the University scoring record, in their initial game of the 1947-48 season, as well as hitting for the most points ever scored by a Hickey-coached team. Billikens, 50 - Minnesota, 42 The Bills met their first test of the season when they played the Minnesota five at Kiel Auditorium; and 10,000 fans watched our men as they outplaved, outran, outshot, and outfought their opponents to take a 5 0_ 4 2 victory. Midway in the first half found Minnesota very much in the ball game, as they held an 1 1-9 advantage over the home team, but two quick baskets dropped in by Easy Ed Macauley gave the Billikens a lead which they never relinquished.

Billikens, 65 - Baylor, 38 The fast-stepping Billiken cagers continued on their victory path by racing past the Southwestern Conference Champions, the Baylor Bears, 65-38. The Texans succeeded in holding the Bills in place for about three minutes, then it was off to the races for the smooth- running Blue-White machine. With Joe Ossola stealing high point honors with 14 points and Ed Macauley ' s fine rebound work, the Billikens sped through the Baylor defense time after time as the game was sewed up in the first half. Billikens, 54, - Missouri, 34 The St. Louis University Billikens extended their victory streak to four straight, and at the same time stopped Missouri ' s winning ways at three in a row, by taming the Bengals, 54-34, in their own den. With fast breaking and excellent teamwork, the Bills gained a 19-3 lead during the first eleven minutes of the game, sweeping the Mizzou cagers off their feet. The Hickeymen continued in command for the remainder of the game to account for their decisive victory.

Billikens, 63 - Georgetown, 58 The Billikens received their first big test of the season and came through with a hard-fought 63-58 victory over the red-hot Georgetown Hoyas. It was a nip-and-tuck battle all the way, with accuracy at the charity line providing the margin of victory for the Billikens. Easy Ed Macauley carried the brunt of the Billiken attack, as he led the way with 23 tallies while also doing an outstanding job defensively. D. C. Wilcutt and Lou Lehman countered 10 and 12 points respectively, while Bob Schmidt played an oustanding floor game. Billikens, 61 - Holy Cross, 46 A capacity crowd of 11,216 spectators, at Kiel Auditorium, looked on amazedly as the Blue-White of St. Louis U. administered a shock- ing 61-46 defeat to the Crusaders of Holy Cross. Playing without the services of Lou Lehman and Carl Weisner seemed in no way to affect the Bills as they captured their seventh straight win. Never trailing and tied only in the very early stages of the game, the men of Coach Eddie Hickey proved their rating as one of the finest teams in the nation. Captain Danny Miller and Easy Ed Macauley gave a sensational ac- count of themselves with outstanding floor games. Two All-Americans, Ed Macauley and Jim Mclntyre, under the Minnesota basket. Billikens, 67 - Rice, 47 Meeting their second Southwestern Con- ference foe, the rampaging Bills won their fifth straight victory of the still young season by- trouncing the Owls 67-47. Every player on the roster broke into the line-up during the course of the evening. D. C. Wilcutt was in rare form as he poured in 17 markers from all angles of the court. The Bills had complete control of the backboards as Ed Macaul ey and Joe Ossola combined to clean the backboards and also drop in their share of points. Page 306 Billikens, 30-Oklahoma A M, 33 The Billikens met their first defeat of the season at the hands of Hank Iba ' s Oklahoma Aggies before 11,000 fans at Kiel Auditorium, as the latter team edged the Bills, 3VjO. Though taking a brief 5-2 lead, and sparked by Ed Macauley ' s n-point drive, the Bills failed to hold the upperhand. Their fast break, which had allowed them to run through seven consecutive foes, was foiled by Oklahoma ' s maginot-line defense. The Aggies, first Mis- souri Valley foe of the season, put a dimmer on the Bills ' hopes for the Conference crown. Billikens, 68, - Long Island, 57 The Billikens made their season ' s debut at Madison Square Garden by handing Long Island University a thorough trouncing, 68-57, in one of the most brilliant displays of r acehorse basketball that New York had yet seen this season. A crowd of 18,741 Eastern fans was awed by the Billiken razzle-dazzle, as the exhibition of astounding speed, bewildering passing and uncanny shooting prompted New York reporters unanimously to name St. Louis the best team to play at the Garden this year. Easy Ed Macauley continued his Ail- American bid by pacing the Billikens with 16 points, followed closely by Captain Danny Miller with 15 points. Fortunately for the home team Eddie Hickey inserted the reserves in the second half to hold down the score. Billikens, 42 - Notre Dame, 40 Rough tactics and sensational ballhandling were only a few of the thrills handed out as the Billikens captured their first victory at the expense of a Notre Dame five. It was Ail- American Ed Macauley who led the up-hill battle by tallying 20 points to overcome the stellar play of Kevin O ' Shea and Company. The Bills trailed from the early stages of the game until the final four minutes of play when Lou Lehman knotted the score at 35-35, then following a score by Paul Gordon, Ed Macauley hit a charity toss and D. C. Wilcutt a basket to give the Bills their first lead of the half. Macauley then matched Notre Dame as he dropped in four points to Notre Dame ' s three.

Billikens, 71 - St. Ambrose, 51 The St. Ambrose Owls fell easily before the Billiken attack in a 71-51 game in the University gymnasium. Lehman led the barrage of baskets, when he entered the game as a sub to tally six- teen points. With a 57-40 lead in the second half, coach Ed Hickey emptied the bench to give all the boys a chance to play. Billikens, 63 - Drake, 34 The Hickey shift yielded big dividends for the Bills against the Drake Bulldogs in the season ' s first western game. Putting Macauley in outcourt drew Drake ' s 6 ' c ' Pritchard from under the basket, and D. C. Wilcutt went through the opened center to rack up 16 points. After eight mi nutes of the second half, Hickey sent in the subs with a 45-16 lead. Billikens, 38 - Creighton, 25 A home-court winning skein started by the Creighton Blue Jays last year under the direc- tion of Ed Hickey in the Creighton-SLU game was broken this year by the same mentor as he coached the opposite team. The Blue Jays tried the Aggie tactic, a slow, deliberate game, and succeeded in holding the Bills down, but not enough so. Easy Ed headed the Blue-White scoring while Danny Miller led the few fast breaks in the 38-25 game. Billikens, 49 - Missouri, 36 The Missouri University basketball game was nip and tuck all the way, with the Bills surviving the battle by a 49-36 count before 10,000 fans at Kiel Auditorium. The game took somewhat the semblance of a football game, as Missouri ' s tactics sent one starter to the bench and assessed the other four with four fouls apiece. Big Ed Macauley sparked the team with an 18 point drive, while Jumpin ' Joe Ossola found the range for 14 markers. Billikens, 52 - Wichita, 41 Playing the role of underdog the Wichita Shockers astounded their followers by leading the Billikens until the final minutes of play when the Blue-White machine finally stopped sputtering and pulled away. Again it was big Ed Macauley who proved the margin of victory by dropping in 16 big markers, despite Wichita ' s ganging-up attempt to bottle Easy Ed.

Everyone took a hand in the victory, halting a Notre Dame home-court winning streak at thirty-eight straight victories, which started in December, 1943. But this game left no doubt in the minds of those who were looking on, the Billikens were right, and no team in the nation could have stopped them on this particular night. Leading the Billikens was All-American Ed Macauley who tallied 21 points, but equally sensational was big Marv Shatzman who rimmed 10 points in the first-half and a total of 11 points. Billikens, 48 - Tulsa, 39 A Billiken team, anxious to take it easy in preparation for the Aggie game the following night, was given no oppor- tunity to let up until the final whistle had blown as a primed Tulsa team forced play all the way before going down, 48-39. It was the smooth, free-wheeling D. C. Wilcutt who turned in one of his greatest exhibitions of shotmaking and tricky ball- handling that gave the Blue- White their victory as he caged 19 points. Bob Schmidt and Lou Lehman followed him in the scor- ing column with 7 points each. Easy Ed Macauley garnered only 6 points, his season ' s ebb, but nevertheless did a beautiful job of clearing the backboard and setting up his teammates- MizzoU corner a rebound from the two Billiken backboard ace:.

The Billikens battled hard all the way but in the end it was Oklahoma ' s skillful ball-control tactics which gave the Ibamen their second victory over the Blue-White. Ed Macauley and Lou Lehman tallied 10 points to lead the scoring parade but it wasn ' t enough as the Aggies turned in a .418 shot percentage. Billikens, 58 - DePaul, 56 Over 10,000 people were on hand to witness the Billi- kens ' overtime victory over the Blue Demons of DePaul, in a 58-56 contest at Kiel Auditorium. DePaul led at the half, 30-29, despite the fast breaking of Danny Miller, Joe Ossola, and D. C. Wilcutt, and boosted their lead to 43-34 with ten minutes remaining in the game. But Marv Shatzman entered the contest at this point, sinking three quick baskets and a charity toss to spark the team to a 52-52 tie at the whistle. Ed Macauley was top scorer for the night with five field goals and seven free throws, at the same time holding Big Ed Mikan to seven tallies.

Page 310 Billikens, 40 - Creighton, 27 In one of the slowest games of the season, the Blue- White of St. Louis University outlasted the Creighton Bluejays, 40-27, at the University Gymnasium. Halftime found the Bills leading 15-11 and after ten minutes of the second-half, the Bills pulled away to a 30-13 lead. Coach Ed Hickey then poured in the re- serves for the remainder of the game. Scoring was evenly divided with Easy Ed Macauley topping the scorers with nine points. Joe Ossola and Marv Schatzman both tallied seven points. Billikens, 45 - Drake, 41 Playing with unassumed ease, the Bills defeated the Drake Bulldogs and in so doing clinched second place in the Missouri Valley Conference. The 45-41 score was not indicative of the superiority of the Billikens, who exerted no unnecessary effort. Joe Ossola ' s 16 points were enough to make him high point man for the evening, while the all-around good floor play of Bob Schmidt, Ed Macauley and D. C. Wilcutt paved the way to the easy victory.

All-American Ed Macauley ' s fifteen points kept the Bills in the game until midway in the second half when DePaul pulled away to clinch the game. Billikens, 68 - Tulsa, 48 By defeating Tulsa, 68-48, the Billikens gained undisputed possession of second place in the Mis- souri Valley Conference as they regained their mid- season form. It was more of an evening of experi- mentation for Coach Ed Hickey as he tried several different combinations on the floor, allowing every- one to break into the line-up. Macauley led the scoring parade with fifteen points, while Bob Schmidt and Joe Ossola followed with eleven each. Billikens, 63 - Wichita, 44 Closing out the most successful campaign in St. Louis University basketball history, the Blue and White crushed a hapless Wichita University five for their twenty-first triumph in twenty-four contests, as they prepared for the big date at Madison Square Garden. The Bills breezed by the Shockers as they built a 38-15 lead at the intermission. They continued this pace, increasing the margin to 44-17 within four minutes of the second half and the reserves took over. This game marked the final appearance on the Billiken court for Captain Danny Miller and Henry Raymonds.

However, there have been great losses which will undoubtedly create major problems next season. Only three men have departed from among the players that were on the squad that captured the Invitational Championship, but they are three important men. Lost through graduation were Captain Danny Miller and Henry Raymonds. The loss of Miller means the loss of a great defensive guard. The loss of Ray- monds is also costly for he was an experienced player who had been under fire. The third man lost to the squad is D. C. Wilcutt who has been declared ineligible by the Conference Board. It will be a terrific task to fill his shoes. Five of the seven regulars will return to the court next year which is encouraging. The task of obtaining capable reserve strength will be up to the promising players remaining on last year ' s team and the many fine prospects moving up from the junior varsity cage team. The return of Ail-American Ed Macauley, Joe Ossola, Bob Schmidt, Lou Lehman and Marv Schatzman makes the picture an extremely bright one. Among the players being counted upon to take their places among the starting five are Jack Wrape, John Cordia, Joe Schmidt and Clay Cary, all of whom displayed the ability last year.

In the initial contest, the Bills set four new records for our own pool as they downed Rolla, 46-29.

Away from home, the Blue-White dunked Bradley U., 46-29, McKenna and Quinlivan scoring n| points apiece; and swam past Indiana State, 43-31, with McKenna taking scoring honors. In the latter meet, the medley team and Quinlivan set records in their respective events. At Rolla, the Helmersmen dropped a 28-47 decision to the Miners, A ' IcKenna leading the scoring. At the Valley meet, where the Bills became co- champs, McKenna, Helmers, and Irv Roselman were 1, 2, 3 in Conference scoring honors. These three also paced the team throughout the season, winning automatically in the breast stroke, distance, and fancy diving events, respectively; and consistently scoring in other events. Where frosh were permitted, Quinlivan made the sprints a sure win. Page 316 Baseball Jack Rooney gets a solid bingle to right as Missouri crushed the Bills, ci-o. Track and Wrestling Varsity track coach, Walter C. Eberhardt, has readied his squad for the new season which will find the Billikens participating in six meets. Coach Eberhardt would not make any predictions as to the final outcome of the squad but was firmly convinced that his tracksters would be a strong contender at the Conference Meet which will be held at Creighton University this year. The Blue and White thinclads will face strong opposi- tion in the meets scheduled for this season, opening against Southern Illinois Normal and then moving on to the Drake Relays which is one of the big track events of the year and always draws the strongest opposition available. After a brief rest they continue activities against Concordia Seminary and Rolla before moving to Wood River for the Invitational Relay and then close their season May 15-16, taking part in the Conference Meet at Omaha. Williams, Witte, Walsh and Everetts have given good account of themselves in the dash events. Boverie, Weaver and Kraft have been handling the hurdles duties while Alberts and Nagel are being used in the discus and shot. Spring again means baseball season, for the St. Louis U. baseball team again took the field in earnest preparation for the coming season which promises to be a rugged one, but with every possibility of being a good one. Assistant Coach Harry Sortal, acting in the absence of Coach Ed Hickey still preoccupied by basketball commitments, was faced with a real problem in attempt- ing to select a squad from among the fifty-five hopeful candidates that turned out for pre-season practice. Coach Sortal, having trouble locating a capable catch- ing staff, has formed the nucleus of his squad around the seven returning lettermen and adding several new pros- pects who should prove valuable in this and future seasons. Among the opponents listed for the 1948 season are the Missouri Tigers, a powerful Bradley U. nine, James Milliken, Concordia, Parks Air College, and Harris Teachers College. In their opening two contests the Billikens found the going rough as they were held to a 4-4 deadlock by Harris and were dumped very rudely by the Missouri Tigers, 9-0. The opening line-up was composed of Schatzman, Winter, Weber and Bob Schmidt in the infield, and Joe Schmidt, Lawton, and Raymonds in the outfield, with Ulses behind the plate. The pitching staff was composed of Block, Cordia, Jasper, Snyder and Groll. Wrestling Coach, Joe Savan, gives the team some pointers during a practice session. Page 317 Mr. W. C. Eberhardt, director cf the d epartment oj physical education, interviews two students. Intramurals One of the largest of the many organizations that compose the University is the intramural department, under the direction of Walter C. Eberhardt. Intramurals consist of basketball, volleyball and softball as major sports. Included in minor sports are golf, swimming, tennis and bowling. Assisting Mr. Eberhardt in the direction of intramural policy are two intramural mana- gers, Jim Short and Jack LeMoine. The only sport completed at this time is basket- ball, which provided the largest turn-out in the history of the intramural program. The championship contest between the Delcers and Questions was played off as the curtain-raiser for the Creighton-Billiken game, with the Delcers coming out on top, 52-41. Again this year, a complete program has been pro- vided for the women students. Among the sports open to participation are volleyball, bowling and basketball. The program is conducted similarly to that of the men. The intramural department sponsored the Danish Gym Team exhibit : on at the University Gymnasium on November 17. This team, consisting of top Danish athletes performed before a packed gymnasium and received a tremendous ovation from the awed spec- tators. Physical Education The Department of Physical Education has com- pleted another successful year in its effort to provide an adequate required program for the student. The purpose of this program is first, to condition the student entering the University and at the same time correct any mal- adjustments which the new student may have developed. The student is provided with many conditioning exercises as well as apparatus work, tumbling and wres- tling. Many sports activities are also included as softball, basketball and touch football. All students must pass a swimming test and if they so desire, they may also take the advanced swimming test presented by the Red Cross. This required program is presented on a national basis, the necessity of which was demonstrated by the Army tests which showed the lack of conditioning of the American youth. It consists of one year ' s training, with two classes per week. All students in the University College must take a two-year program in order to qualify for a teacher ' s certificate. Assisting Mr. W. C. Eberhardt in carrying out this program are Jim McKenna, Henry Stroer, Carl Johnson Leonard Helmers, and Frank Dafillio. Another department under the direction of Mr. Eberhardt is the physical education minor course, which was instituted two years ago. As yet, there are not many students enrolled in this course but it is still in its embry- onic stage. Its purpose is to prepare the student for teaching physical education and coaching. It consists of a twenty-four hour program of practice and theory in coaching activities. A major is carried in some other field and this program meets the requirements of every state in the United States. Assisting the director of staff, Mr. W. C. Eberhardt, are Mr. Hickey, basketball coach, and Mr. Bauman. All are highly qualified men and feel this department of physical education will become an important depart- ment in the education program. Another important part of the department is the evening classes in physical education open to all women. Instituted in 1932, it is the largest such organization in the country and the University is the only Catholic Uni- versity with this community social program. An average of 1400 per year are enrolled and an average of 200 per evening class has been maintained. Page 318 The physical education program includes calesthenics and such methods of physical development as rope-climbing. Like instructor, like student. Physical Education instructor, Henry Stroer, teaches them how it is done and the students show him what they have learned. jm ■■ taw ▼ 1 i 88 : n ■■ h ■■ ■ w fife ■W, t ftW iViWiHHHMiiVHI BiHNHiiVIBi s BBiff ' ss i i ItlihiU ' 4 M ft Ringpi ' the rafters Campus Capers Theta Kappa Phi starts a football tradition.
