LITERARY THE DIAL ANNUAL In 1922 came the birth of a Dial Annual. Formerly St. Mary's College had been without a year book and a school of this size without one seemed incomplete. A year book was both desired and feasible. Did not the success of the former special numbers of the Dial show that? It was through the diligence and insistence of John J. Boland, A. B., '22, that the Annual was born. Under his leadership and with the help of Fr. J. A. Berens, S. J., plans were formed and the Annual was started. At first it was planned to have the Annual separate from the Dial proper, but lack of time and material prevented this. The result was that the Annual was combined with the fourth issue of the Dial and a DIAL ANNUAL was published. The work was a great success and all who have seen that publication will agree that it was a creation to be admired. Things in and about the school and buildings, familiar scenes, classes, societies, snapshots and other pictures of varying character filled its pages. The success of last year’s Annual is the foundation of this year’s work. Guided by Paul H. Jacks. A. B., ’23. and supervised by Fr. J. A. Berens. S. J., the Annual shows the work of skilled hands. The present work is the realization of the plans of last year. It has been made a separate publication, with its own staff. Credit is due cspeciallv to the men in charge of the departments. Marion Batson. William Ramacciotti. Francis Carroll. Frank Morris, Winfred Roleke. Joseph Wade, Joseph Schlegel and Frank Huck. Our artists deserve the highest praise for their self-sacrificing efforts to enhance the appearance of the book. Joseph Schlegel designed the introductory pages, the first page of the College Views section and the ornamental border. William Ramacciotti gave unsparingly of his time to ensure an adequate historical record. The Staff wishes to acknowledge its indebtedness to Father Scott for innumerable photographs and to Mr. Frank Willard for the photographic studies which appear in the College Views section. These have been copyrighted. The Staff also wishes to take this opportunity to thank all those who have assisted in the production of the Dial Annual, particularlv our advertisers, whose support deserves recognition on the part of the readers of this year book.
