Much of the credit for the University's athletic program belongs to the University of San Diego's Boosters’ Club. Formed at the beginning of the 1955 fall semester, the club this year elected Murray D. Goodrich as President, John B. Sullivan as Vice-President, Russell Chartier as Secretary, and Joe Williams as Treasurer. Mr. Goodrich, who succeeded Mr. Al Schuss as the club's president, listed as among the Boosters’ goals the increase of their membership to approximately four hundred. Primarily concerned with encouraging athletics in the school, the Club includes thirty members who form a board of directors known as the Athletic Board of Control. This year the Board of Control was given the responsibility of hiring a full-time football coach who will also relieve Mr. Fon Johnson as Director of Athletics. No mention of the Boosters' Club would be complete without reference to the more recently founded Women’s Auxiliary, which has assumed the task of sponsoring University club activities and helping with publicity for the college. Chairman of the Auxiliary is Mrs. Marco Monteverdi, and Co-chairman is Mrs. Murray Goodrich.
