X yr '.VA na ,Q PROLOGUE The St. Vincent College student body has re- cently become well-known for its controversial discussions and actions. ln keeping with this rather newly formed tradition, the 'I963 edition of the TOWER yearbook has given rise to a multitude of discussions. This attitude of probing, searching, and questioning every important de- cision, whether it originates in local, state-wide, or national politics, St. Vincent College Admin- istration, or the student body itself, should not, however, be looked upon as a claim to infamy. Let it, rather, act as a signpost to the world that the student body of St. Vincent College is coming of age-shouldering its share of the world's re- sponsibility to God and man. The purpose, then, of the T963 TOWER is to reflect, through pictures, the growing pains, and pleasures, experienced during the academic year 1962-1963, and to provide an accurate record of this school year which will enable each stu- dent, in years to come, to look back at his time here, and remember.

He is the nucleus of the Saint Vincent Archabbey and the symbol of Benedictine stability. Although he is seldom seen by the student body, his presence is felt in the administrative and spiritual policies which he directs. Right Reverend D nis Omer Strittmatter was born in Hastings, P nnsylvania on August 18, 1896. He first entere a parochial school in Hast- ings and then came o Saint Vincent Preparatory School. He enrolled in Saint Vincent College and at the completion of his sophomore year was ad- mitted to the novitiate of the Archabbey. On July 2, 1917, he professed his temporary vows and three years later was solemnly professed. ln the following three years the Archabbot received the subdeaconate and deaconate. He was ordained into the priesthood by Bishop Hugh C. Boyle D.D., Bishop of Pittsburgh, in the Saint Vincent Arch- abbey, on July 24, 1923. He was previously assigned to manage the Archabbey Press, but after entering the priesthood, he became a member of the Saint Vincent faculty and later served in parishes in Youngwood, Ligo- nier, and Wilpen. ln 1928 he was sent to Belmead, Rock Castle, Virginia where he served as assistant director of Saint Emma's Industrial and Agricul- tural Institute. He became head of the Rock Castle school and remained in this position until 1947. Reverend Strittmatter was then recalled to Saint Vincent where he was to supervise the maintenance of the institution and direct an extensive reno- vation. With permission of the Holy See for the election of a Coadiutor Archabbot, Reverend Strittmatter became the new superior of the Archabbey with right of succession to Right Reverend Alfred Koch O.S.B., S.T.D. The election was attended by 186 electors, the largest ever gathered for the election of an abbot in the United States. Upon the death of Right Reverend Koch, Reverend Strittmatter assumed full iurisdiction of the Saint Vincent Arch- abbey and College. The formal blessing took place in the Archabbey Church on November 25, 1949. Most Reverend John F. Dearden, Coadiutor Bishop of the Pittsburgh diocese, conferred the Solemn Abbatial Blessing on the Archabbot. The Chancellor is a member of the Pope's Coun- cil of Four Abbots and is president of the American Cassinese Congregation. Widely traveled, the Archabbot has had the honor of being one of the two American archabbots in attendance at the Ecumenical Council in Rome. V W The President's Message to the Class of T963 Gentlemen of the Class of 1963: You now leave the formal classrooms of your college life to go out into the world to face reality: You carry with you the positive values and working principles which your instructors so wisely and so generously imparted to you. But you will also find false values and practices that are at variance with them. Christ's teachings are simple, direct, and clear. Thou shall love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mincl . . . Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets. CMatt. xxii 37-AOD. But the good seed of love sown by Christ has been oversown with cockle by an enemy who knows well how to distort, disfigure and destroy the love and goodness in the minds and hearts of men. Everyone recognizes the beauty of love, but the times have never quite taught us the folly of hate. More often than not the hater accomplishes nothing save the shrinking of his own soul, This may be why Dickens depicts hate in the figure of a dwarf, the odious Daniel Quilp of The Old Curiosity Shop. Quilp is the pure embodiment of hate. He hates his wife, his friends, his business associates. He makes wax images of his victims and melts them. The point does not lie in the plot so much as it does in the fact that when Dickens, with his matchless insight into human nature, sought to represent hate, he did so in a form so stunted and Ioathsome. You were trained here at St. Vincent to go out as champions of truth and goodness and love. You must never ignore your responsibilities but rather you must learn to thrill to the privilege and opportunity that are yours in accepting and fulfilling them. Selt- respect cannot be purchased. lt is never for sale. lt comes to us when we are alone, in quiet moments, in quiet places, when suddenly we realize that, knowing the good, we have done it, knowing the beautiful, we have served it, knowing the truth, we have spoken it. God bless you ever, I ' Maximilian G. Duman, O.S.B. President 1 Y of his Arctic Ends in the biology lab.

Professor of Music To the faculty and administration of St. Vincent College goes the highest possible commendation that can be attributed to such dedicated men cmd women that we are so fortunate to possess. They have taken upon themselves the enormous task of moulding the raw material of incoming freshmen into astute, aca- demic minds. They have, in a mere academic year pushed, prodded, led, and guided their scholastic charges through a myriad of facts and figures, ideas and processes. The administration, always behind the scenes and rarely thanked, plan the workings of this institution of higher learning with minute detail. Because of this labor, the academic year becomes as a smooth road, which we the students, travel with comparative ease. Working in conjunction with the various student or- ganizations such as the Student Senate, the admin- istration provides a complete list of the activities for the coming year. Throughout the year then, it is the task of the administration to see that these plans are carried out with ease and punctuality. It is also the administration's task to direct the faculty in its en- deavors to provide for the academic hunger of the student body. The faculty of St. Vincent contains some of the most competent professors in this area. The faculty list contains many Ph.D.'s and many outstanding men who publish in their fields. The members of the facul- ty who spend long hours, not only in their regular class work, but in other activities such as office con- sultation, prefecting, play directing, and acting in the capacity of club and class moderators. To each and every faculty and administration mem- ber should go the heartfelt thanks of the student body for their endeavors in our behalf.

Upon arrival, incoming shmen and their families were greeted by members of the ientation Committee. These gentlemen, all upperclassmen high academic standing, immediately welcomed the class 1966 and helped its members with luggage. The Orienta- n Committee served in the capacity of guides as well as rters and official greeters, showing parents and students rooms and campus. During the next three days, the orientation period for fresh- n, the committee members aided the freshmen in adjust- to campus life, and, supporting the faculty and adminis- tion, explained the many duties and opportunities of the w Vincentians. The last day of orientation before the upperclassmen re- rt back is token up with registration. The new class, aided ain by the Orientation Committee under the very able dership of Bill Duffy, reported to Sportsman's Hall and reg- ered for the oncoming year.

At this time, last year's high school heroes are awakened to the tact that they are mere mortals and are sub- jected to the all powerful commands of the dictating Orientation Committee. However, all is not negative for the new students, They are introduced to school traditions and policies, taught school songs and cheers, and made to feel that they are an integral part of the school. They also engage in many profitable activities which the Orientation Committee plans with much diligence and labor. Some ot these activities include picnics and dances with neighboring girls' schools, student- faculty meetings, study periods, and daily Mass. By the end ot orientation the overall results are ready to be reaped. The freshmen meet many upper- classmen, have the traditions and the spirit of the school instilled in them, and, most importantly, ad- iust to a collegiate environment. Working as a group, the newcomers provide the student body with bon- tires, half-time skits and other entertainment. Through this group participation they meet many of their classmates. 5 :wg , 1 li , 5 ' ' .. -ws ,J , A, 1 - ,. J n W I tai l at 2 H 5 f 5 it Q N if ! Q. X AQ Q5 Walt spikes one.

An integral part of any football game is the pre-game fes- tivities, the pep-rallies, and the bonfires. Much of the spirit of any game is built up before the game. Tensions and hopes ride high with the rising flames of the mountainous bonfire. Participating in the rallies were S.V.C. and S.l-l.C. students, parents, and spectators. With school cheers and songs they give the team the moral support, so important for any victory.

COACH E. Albert DeLuca, better known in football circles as Al, has now completed his fif- teenth season as head football coach of St. Vincent College. During these years, DeLuca, a former Duquesne University star halfback, has led SVC to 59 wins, 48 losses, and nine ties. He holds the distinction of being the only grid coach at SVC to guide a team to an unbeaten, untied season and so to a bowl. After graduating from Duquesne, DeLuca served as football coach at Johnstown Cath- olic High and Blairsville High. Then he ac- cepted an assistant coach position at Du- quesne where he remained for several years before he came to St. Vincent College. FOOTBALL - 1963 The 1962 football season at St. Vincent must be considered as one of the worst in the history of the college. The Bearcats' troubles began on opening day when a powerful Slippery Rock team crushed the home forces 48-O. The next three con- tests proved equally fruitless as the Bearcats dropped all three encounters by 28-O, 40-6, 34-T4 scores respectively, to Ge- neva, California State, and Waynesburg. The high point of the season took place when the Bearcats came from behind in the last minute of play to beat stubborn Carnegie Tech 25-21. The season terminated on a sour note as the Bearcats dropped their final two decisions to Westminster T9-T3 and Kings Col- lege 28-21. Throughout the season the Bearcats were hampered with iniuries to key personnel, but there were some bright spots to be found in iron men Steve Ulishney, Dave Slatniski, and Denny Ufnar. Senior standouts who will be missed by veteran coach Al Deluca are co-captains Denny Cramer and Jan Es- way along with Jerry Guz, Jerry Slavonia and Al Francani. Coach DeLuca ponders next move.

Carmine Molinaro, President of the St, Vincent College Student Government. STUDENT SENATE Everyone living in a free nation knows the importance of good government. At. St. Vincent College, the administration and students both, therefore, permit and encourage students to govern themselves. It is felt that the more initiative and more responsibility given to students, the better Christian gentlemen they will become. These are only a few of the rea- sons for the existence of a student government at St. Vincent, but even these are enough. The functions of the Student Senate are varied and many. Perhaps one of the most important functions, though probably the littlest known, is the performance of liaison between the student body and the administration. Another important ac- tivity of the Student Senate is the creation of a working social calendar. The Senate also allocates money to various clubs on campus, all, incidentally, formed under the auspices of the Student Senate, for their particular duties. Within the first three months of this year, the Senate, under the leadership of President Carmine Molinaro, acquired a new student lounge for the college in general, and formed a com- mittee of dayhop representatives, besides their usual duties. 45 HOMECOMING, I962 4-f .JN 5 4 -0' 23 -0 Div wi fra - V . sf if FLOATS AND ACTIVITIES From top to bottom: The stage guild's archway and bear- cat, one oi the best constructed decorations on campus: The lens and shutter club's giant model of a Graflex camera.

Early in the week the various clubs on campus began to prepare their colorful decorations as Homecoming, 1962 be- gan to draw near. At last the floats were finished and the day was here. From all over the world graduates from St. Vincent College began to gather at their old campus especially the twenty-five year men the Class of 1937. Early in the afternoon usually after a trip around the school the graduates gathered in Sportsman s Hall for cock- tails and to meet with some of their old professors. Later the Homecoming football game began, and at halftime the fresh- men, who had been chafing under upperclassman rule in connection with the Orientation program were freed from their green dinks and backsigns, the freedom usually ac- companied by lndian-like war whoops. Also at halftime Miss Sally Lyon chosen Homecoming Queen at the dance the night before and her court were presented to the football audience in a parade. Halftime activities also included a drum and bugle corps from the area. After the game a dinner was held in honor of the St. Vin- cent Graduates.

CHEMISTRY CLUB The obiects of the Chemistry Club, cli- rected by Mr. Montiar, are to secure the in- tellectual stimulation that arises from pro- fessional association, to foster a professional spirit among members, and to provide a means for the students of Chemistry to be- come better acquainted. This year the Club sponsored the departmental publication, The Alchemist. Another ambitious under- taking is the Freshmen Counseling Commit- tee. The committee works in conjunction with the Chemistry department and conducts problem sessions before maior tests in Gen- eral Chemistry. Among the traditional activ- ities are tours of chemical works, sponsorship of speakers and films, and a student-faculty banquet. Members also participate as guides to the alumni and guests at the Chemistry Symposium, held during Homecoming Week- end. McGunnigIe, J. Pekarthy, T. Pangia, H. Null, L. Per- ietti, E. Schwartzel, T.

STENSON CLUB The Stenson Club, made up of above average students, and the moderator Father Joel, is dedicated to the purposes of stimulating biological investigation and developing a facility and fluency with biological ideas in order that they might pursue their pros- pective careers in a more intelligent manner. The club accomplishes this purpose in a number of ways: guest lecturers are invited to address the members of the organization and other interested students, members attend the pre-medical convention in Philadelphia, as well as tours in that locality, movies on career opportunities and biological subiects are sponsored by the club. The club, believing in the development of a well rounded individual, also sponsors a number of dances throughout the year. But if you're Ernest, then who is he? Would you like to take a walk through the woods to my new parsonage, m'dear? . LA THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING ERNEST It was a cool October evening and the steps to Sportsman's Hall were crowded with students and faculty of St. Vincent College and Seminary. In the auditorium, a delightful, playful song was being played over the loud- speakers. The house lights dimmed, then went out. What followed was a delight to the entire audience of col- legians and seminarians. The play, The Importance of Being Ernest, an eighteenth century comedy was pre- sented by a professional group of thespians, the Cleveland Players. The group, which plays in theaters all across the country, used such staid de- vices as character mix-ups, but with a new twist and perfection which macle the evening a delight to all who at- tended. STUDENTS But how do you spend all that time at St. Vincent? is a question frequently asked of stu- dents. ln this page, and the page following, are shown just a few of the answers to that question. Studying takes up an enormous part ot each student's day, since there is no laundry hamper handy, students frequently do their own washing, ironing, and sewing, the pro- verbial bull sessions also take up quite a bit of every student's time. Then, ot course, after studies are done, clothes hung up to dry, and everything talked about, students are likely to wander to Sportsman's Hall for a frosty Coke, a hamburger, or an evening of hustling in the pool hall-bowling alley. Such are just a few of the activities which make up a day in the lite of Harry Vincent. Frank Pompanella studies for an exam im Kalmer, otherwise known as the ustIer practices for an up-coming eet.

METROPOLITAN CLUB The Metropolitan Club of St. Vincent College is composed of members who live in and around the New York City area. Its purpose is to foster and promote fellowship and school spirit among its mem- bers. This is achieved by hold- ing social affairs in New York during vacation periods. These affairs enable present members to renew friendships with alum- ni of the club and advance the name of St. Vincent College in the Metropolitan area of New York. Among the other activi- ties sponsored by the club are beach parties, a Christmas dance, and social activities sponsored while at school. Father Edmund is the modera- tor. Left to Right: Standing: R.

Long before actors have memorized their lines, the Stage Guild is busy making and painting props, gathering costumes, and setting up lighting and sound effects. Members of this club are also on hand at every func- tion which employs the stage seeing to curtains, lights, sound, and doors. '44 DRUMMER'S BALL The first formal social affair of 1963 for Seton Hill College was their annual Drummer's Ball. The Ball, climaxing their recent development campaign, was held in Sullivan Hall on the campus of the sister school of SVC. Time flew swiftly as the Setonians, in their full length gowns, and their escorts danced to the soft music of the Doug Cahill quartet. The apex of the evening was reached with the crowning of the Queen of the Drummer's Ball, Tricia Carol.

Nick DiCuccio's fine, and even some- times funny, M.C.'ing was noticed ancl appreciated by all attending. The variety of acts was great. Guitarists, folksingers, pops singers, and dancers all displayed talent. Some ofthe high- lights of the evening were DiCuccio's School for Young Boys, Fidel the gar- bage man, Latin folksingers, the Frig- id Ridge Strippers Ca dancing groupj, and the West Side Story's Officer Krupke scene. .

UNDERCLASS RETREAT Real living without presupposes life within. The annual retreat, which opened this year on the 3'lst ot October and closed November 2nd, aims at the activation of the inner life. It is a three day pause in the academic and social life which provides ample leisure for every col- legian to strengthen and renew the orientation of his life. Rev. John Kelly, C.S.P. conducted confer- ences for the Juniors and Sophomores. Rev. Raymond Lorentz, C.S.P. took charge of the Freshmen. ln addition to their stimulating con- ferences and liturgical participation, personal guidance was urged for all. Every collegian who participates sincerely in such a retreat emerges a better Catholic and a more integral man. Refreshed by the retreat, he is ready to articulate better the obligations of college lite. Internally strengthened, his tur- ther development as a christian in society is assured. l Students in Student Chapel during retreat. if?

BECKET PLAY Marty Bennison, left, as Thomas a Becket, and Walter Lamandola as Henry II. 60 Wally Lamandola and Honora Rively QGwendoIenJ seated beneath the only props used for this play-the coats of arms ol Becket and Henry IV. The story of Thomas a Becket is, for Christianity, at once historical and legendary. Several years ago, T. S. Eliot's investigation into the tragic assasination of Henry IV's little archbishop was presented at St. Vincent by the Tower Players in Murder in the Cathedral. This year that case was reopened with the presentation of Jean Anouilh's in- terpretation of the story, entitled simply Becket. While the approaches to the man him- self are different on the surface, both dramatists find, from their own chosen perspectives, the real Becket, the man of God for the honor of God, who dies for duty, following, even in fear, the dictates of conscience. Adding yet another perspective, though neces- sarily of a different nature, the Tower Players underwent the task of preparing the Anouilh version for a Reader's Theater presentation. This was done under the able di- rection of Fr. Omer Kline. The task was a strange, if not entirely fantastic, one. The drama had to be read, re-read, studied, and finally abridged so that portions of scenes too dependent upon their visual impact could be either omitted or sketched in by the nar- rator. In the end, the actors were seated on stools behind lecturns and had their scripts in front of them. There was no scenery, only the words and their proper interpretive de- livery. For this type of play to succeed at all, it must do so through the power of skill- fully combining elements of the verbal image as inherent in the written word, the will- ing suspension of disbelief by the audience, and a convincing and provoking delivery by the actors. lt was apparent that these elements were present. Though the reading was somewhat long, the audience was captivated and completely held for the duration of the performance. 61 I . 'vmxlxe -. Q.

A publication has been born, therefore, which allows and encourages self expression by both students and faculty. The staff of Generation collects and edits stories, poems, art work, and photography of students and publishes it for the enjoyment and editication of all students. A comparatively new publication on campus, Genera- tion has proceeded with vigor and is among the fore- most of student publications. RICHARD HIMLER Latrobe, Pa. Psychology Forum 1,2,3,4. WILLIAM J .

FROSH MIXER The first social event following the Christmas recess was a mixer sponsored by the Freshman Class. The dance, held in the Roof Garden of the Penn Albert Hotel in Greensburg, brought together the students of SVC, Seton Hill, and La- trobe School of Nursing. Getting off to a slow start, an apparent failure blossomed into a swinging evening. Old friends were reacquaintedp new ones made for '63. One of the last socializing opportunities before the semester exams began, the event pro- vided a chance to round off the holiday merrymaking, and unwind before set- tling down for a long week of exams. Entertainment was furnished by the Sentimentals, a group of five SVC freshmen. The quintet, composed of Tom Bertuccini, lead on guitar, Joe Smith, baritone saxophone, Joe Rogalski, alto saxophone, Frank Vukmanic, accordion, and Carl Masch, drums, provided both the old sentimentals and the latest twists for the dancing pleasure of the people present. :qv 4 .41 D ., Qfii, 3.6 1 Q' 1 v... - .

These pictures were taken, for the most part, in crowds at school activities and small portions ol any one picture were picked out, so anyone who has attended any school activity might find a picture of themselves in this section. f ',f il -'r V NNN xx N ' K XT A ee .

COACH Oland fDodol Canterna, former University ot Pittsburgh basketball star, has completed his tenth season as head coach of the SVC Bearcat hoopsters. Prior to his arrival before the 1953-54 season, basketball was at a low ebb at SVC. During his first rebuilding year 1953-54, the Bearcats were winless in 15 out- ings. The following year the Bearcats won 4 out of 19 contests. However, in 1955-56, personable Canterna came up with the best won-lost record in the history of the school, and the 16-3 record was enough to gain Saint Vincent the George Mikan award which signifies the most improved basketball team in the United States. Canterna continued to guide the Bearcats in their winning ways in 1956-57 and 1957-58 posting 13-8 and 13-7 records respectively. The last four years have showed the Bearcats playing a rugged schedule and finishing below the .500 mark. Prior to the 1962-63 season, Cantera's overall coaching record shows 74 victories against 104 losses. rin Dodo Canterna and the three SVC co-captains-D. Berk- myre, J. Wirth, and R. Simasek Ctop to bottomb. This year's St. Vincent basketball squad provided the fans with much interest and excitement through- out the long, hard, twenty-one game schedule. Team strength rested in its only seniors: tri-captains Jim Wirth, Dave Berkmyre, and Rege Simasek. Although hampered by a definite height disadvantage in al- most every contest, the team employed speed and hustle to try to offset this lack of inches. First year men on the team were freshman, Wally Hobart and sophomore Ken Sweder. Sophomore, Butch Tomasic and iunior, Tom Goetz provided re- serve strength when needed under the boards. .lun- iors, Paul Benko, Barry Gardner, .lim Kane, and Frank Datillo also saw a great deal of action in reserve. Like most other sports, basketball is a game of inches, and as long os SVC basketball teams lack these inches they will have to keep on relying on speed, hustle, and prayer. 91 5.

These purposes are accomplished by a planned pro- gram of speakers, trips to psychi- atric hospitals and institutions, and movies. Among the speakers are psychiatrists, criminologists, ancl professors of psychology in different colleges. SOCIOLOGY FORUM The Sociology Forum aims to de- velop skills and attitudes in the stu- dent interested in the many social problems of today. This aim is ac- complished by seminars, attitude questionnaires, field trips, and films illustrating current social problems. Because the organization stimulates and awakens social awareness and responsibility, this society is bene- ficial not only to Sociology maiors, but to all interested students as well. .Jv- am., rt,,,,, .-V ., .1 1 a sc. .1 Sitting, left to right: M.

I 5 X 'T X XX X PLAY OF DANIEL Evolving from earlier liturgical drama, the Play of Daniel Ccirca 1225 A.D.l tells of the biblical prophet Daniel, recounting within a dramatically telescoped time period the kingships of Nabuchodonoser and Darius, the writing on the wall, and the deliverance of Daniel from the lions. The presentation of this rarely-presented play by a locally re- cruited cast this past Fall in the Archabbey Basilica is already considered a high point in the history of our community. That Saint Vincent's own Father Rembert Weakland transcribed the play from microfilms of the one extant MS, preserved in London, is in it- self a general justification for interest. But add to this the details of his stanza by stanza metering of the Latin text and his translation of esoteric pitch notations to useable values and what resulted was a musical text which, under the dramatic direction of Father Maynard Brennan and the musical supervision of Dr. Richard Karp, was exciting to hear and interesting to behold in dramatic presentation. The Play of Daniel calls for many stances and expressions. Cn this page are a few of the shots taken both dur- ing play rehearsal and the actual play. The background is the main altar of the Archabbey Basilica. I l t W DAVE MCMUNN Murrysville, Pa. Stensen Club 1,2,3,4g Alpine Club 15 Varsity Wrestling lg In- tramurals 1,2,3,4. JOSEPH R.

Boister- ous smalltalk ranging from local scuttlebut, through vollying cut sessions, to necessari- ly abbreviated discussions of bi-party poli- tics gradually raises the noise level to that of a small riot. The administrative table be- gins to fill slowly, then with haste. Archabbot Strittmatter, in one of his rare appearances before his entire family, moves surely and smilingly through acres of tables to his place at the head table and, after a measure of silence has been commended by the rapping of silver on glass, asks God's blessing on all present. The Christmas dinner formally be- gins. Before this evening is complete, all in- volved will have eaten, joined in the carol- ing, clapping, and iokes, received a final blessing from Father Archabbot, been de- lighted by Father Arthur's choral contata, seen a movie especially chosen to comple- ment the mood, and, finally, spent the re- mainder of an evening of comradship just clowning around, making good use of those final hours before the long trip home for Christmas.

Among its most noteworthy ac- tivities are weekly visits to the Latrobe Hos- pital, Old Folks Home and the Childrens Home in Greensburg. The older members teach catechism in Avonmore. The club also holds a Christmas party and picnics for the children in the Home. By work and sacrifice the members, under the moderator, Father Leo, bring a little share of warmth and hap- piness into the hearts of the unfortunate and needy. Left to Right: D. Rhea, R. Zorn, E.

To assure peak performance, many long hours must be spent in running, calisthenics, and sweating oFF pounds while learning the many holds, both the fundamental and the more complicated. But the most grueling time a wrestler spends is the nine minutes of a match. The 1962-63 edition of the SVC wrestling team consists of a group of men who were well drilled, confident, and the most promising contingent of grapplers ever to step onto the mats at St. Vincent. The experienced wrestlers, Tim McCormick, Tom Skolda, Peter Abt, and captain, Frank Fulcher were all big winners during the long season. Coach Jerry Hughes was surprised and pleased with the addition of Tommy Gnesda, Jim Wasicki, Jack Spicuzza, Duffy Regan, Andy Anderson, Fred Klepp, and Bob Stov- ken. These wrestlers refused to give up and brought many exciting moments to college students in Sports- man's Hall. Much credit is due this team because they proved to SVC students and to themselves that they can and will win many matches in the near future, and that wrestling, as a varsity sport, has come to St. Vincent to stay. at .

The man behind these activities is Jerome F. Hughes, wrestling coach. Mr. Hughes holds a bache- lor's degree from Lock Haven College and a master's degree in educational counseling from Penn State University. Wrestling started as a varsity sport at St. Vincent in 1959 at which time Mr. Hughes formed the first St. Vincent wrestling team. He is highly thought of by his team though he requires perfection from every man. Jerry Hughes is also the newly appointed Assistant to the Registrar and has acted as an assistant line coach this past fall for the football team. MICHAEL W. MICKINAK Latrobe, Pa.

Firemen arrived at St. Vincent at approxi- mately eight forty-five. By this time, the Ere had broken out through the roof and flames were visible. Thus began the de- struction of a great part of St. Vincent Archabbey. Because of frozen water lines, firemen were unable to con- tain the flames. Starting as it did in the iunction of three con- nected buildings, the fire spread rapidly. Students from St. Vincent Prep were routed from their rooms along with scholas- ticates and monks. Priests, brothers, students and seminarians began to rescue furniture, books, paintings, and clothes from rooms throughout the monastery. The fire continued out of con- trol because of lack of water and fire companies from all over Westmoreland County were called to the scene. Through re- lays of pumper trucks, water was lifted from a reservoir and efforts were made to stem the all-engulfing flames. By this time the fire had almost completely razed the old student's chapel and the top floor of the prep building. The student's chapel, the oldest building at St. Vincent, was completely gutted. The fire had started into two more buildings, those which housed the maiority of the priests. These too were gutted. The fire raged on. The next building to go was the most famous landmark of St. Vincent Archabbey, the bell tower after which this yearbook is named. The tall brick structure with its wooden floors acted as a chimney through which flames and smoke rose unchecked. The famous bells, long heard throughout the country-side as they pealed the hours and called the monks to prayer, fell with gonging crashes when their wooden supports burned out, and were heard no more. On the roof of the tower lead slates melted and began to droop over the side. The cross which surmounted the tower hung to one side, held up by its copper lightning arrestor. Meanwhile, another St. Vincent landmark, the Basilica Church was in danger. Firemen, hampered by the dense and choking smoke, donned air packs and gas masks and tried vainly to find a way into the loft over the back of the Basilica. They knew flames were about to enter the loft but could find no entrance to fight them. The building was saved, however, when Fr. Marcian pointed out a small fire door to firemen and they, with the aid of a ladder, were able to open it and halt the flames. Throughout the entire day of February fifth, and long into the night, fire kept breaking out. The thousands of gallons of water poured onto the flames became another serious prob- lem. The basement of the Basilica was flooded and efforts were made to keep the water from freezing so that it would not crack the foundation. In other places, sweeps were arranged by college students to push the water along hallways and down steps. In the prep building, the water problem got so bad that a hole had to be cut in the floor to drain water off. Here, the water dropped directly on the hot oven used to make the famous Bearcat bread and ruined it. When the fire was completely out, the toll it had taken was staggering. Buildings and property in excess of one million dol- lars had been destroyed. lrreplacable records, biology equip- ment, plant and animal specimens, and manuscripts had been lost. Because of swift action, however, no lives were lost and only minor iniuries were sustained. By Wednesday morning, glittering, ice-encased walls stood as mute examples around JOHN R.

Here, the entire biology lab is in flames and the fire is beginning its march across the roof of the old students' chapel. lf-' ' , , Here the famous bell tower is seen as flames ravage it. Shortly after this picture was taken the bells fell. i As the fire gained headway it burned down into the biology lab. Here, the roof is seen falling into the lab. Part of the roof to the old students' chapel had fallen in when this shot was taken. The tower is now in danger. s l r. H ' - ,1 . 1' i' E3- 4 ' N -4-,Z I-.IQ .

Perhaps the greatest loss was the loss of traditional landmarks. The famous bell tower, after which this book is named, was gutted completely. The old students' chapel, oldest building at St. Vincent, was likewise destroyed. But the spirit of St. Vincent and St. Benedicate dictate that the archabbey re- build itself, out of its own ashes. 1 illlllli llEllllS EE? lllll .1 .

THOMAS MORE ACOLYTE SOCIETY The St. Thomas More Society is prob- ably best known by the personally awarding function its members perform by assisting at daily Mass. The purpose of this society, moderated by Father Maurinus, is to acquaint the members with the privileges and nature of cm acolyte's duties. The members serve at various religious functions in the college chapel and the Archabbey Church. The club gives every collegian, who knows how to serve Mass, the opportunity to do so. Members also instruct those col- legians who do not know how to serve Mass but desire to learn. Left to right: J. Bucciere, M. Chin, J. Kujovsky, F. Pompanella, A. D- Shingle, B. Citrone, T.

This pro- gram is designed for those athletes, and even non-athletes, who, perhaps, do not have the time or do not have the inclination to participate in varsity sports. The intra- mural field becomes an arena in which stu- dents can relieve the boredom of sitting at a desk all day.

The Assembly Committee ofthe Student Senate has acted, this year, to give St. Vincent College the opportunity to investigate ideas and opinions of every walk of life through its assembly speakers. The high caliber of this program is best seen, per- haps, through a list of the more notable speakers: Percy Sutton, President of the New York N.A.A.C.P., Ralph Durgan, Presidential Advisor, the Dean of Latin American History, Dexter Perkins, James Vaus, President of Youth Development Incorporated, Larry Dennis, former Associate Director of the Peace Corps, Senator Eugene McCarthy, Father Dismas Clark, S.J., the famed Hoodlum Priest, and President Edward Litchfield of Pitt University. Much thanks should also be given Father Maxi- milian Duman, President of the college for his pa- tience and assistance in contacting and suggesting interesting speakers.

'J The 1962 Bearcat baseball squad was studded with under- classmen but the St. Vincent rooters were treated to much fine baseball. Outfielders, Gene Dolecki, Jack Manfrecli, John Kostyo and Jim Wasicki turned many a potential triple into iust another out. To the intielders and pitchers too must go credit for their fine performances. But the real mainstay of the team, the one who actually led St. Vincent to its 6-7 record, was Dodo CCoachJ Canterna. Forcing long hours of practice on the never dry diamond, Dodo coached the St. Vincent nine through a difficult season.
