Saphnmnre Class Arts and Sciences First row: Camozzi, Conner, W. Feeney, Grenfell, Hall, Jacobs. Second row: A. Kelly, McDonald, Prejean, Prentice, Ravaglia, Traditionally it has been the junior class members who shoulder the burden of extra-cur- ricular activities and, after the departure of the graduating seniors, accept executive posi- tions in various campus organizations. The sophomore year has usually been a time of de- cision for lower classmen who must by their membership specify the organizations in which they will participate as upperclassmen. But because of the lack of manpower in the junior roster, this last year found the sophomore class taking the lead in maintaining and direc- ing the functions peculiar to each society. Elections early in September selected George Murphy as President: Charles Peck as Class Representative; Bob Jacobs as Vice-president; and Dave Bacigalupo as Secretary-treasurer. In that same month the class, led by dance chairman, Joe Riccomi, sponsored the Soph Hop, first on-campus social of the year for sophomores, upperclassmen, and veterans. Sophomores were especially active in the staging of dramatic shows and in publication of the Santa Clara. Charles Peck, with two years of sound acting experience behind him. Jack Wadsworth, capable stage manager for the Players, and Ray Hall, veteran and tal- ented newcomer to the footlights, gave indica- tion of a promising future with the dramatists. Equally noteworthy was the contribution of this class to the campus newspaper. George Murphy, who served as Sports Editor before leaving for the army in eDcember, Dave Baci- galupo, competent News Editor, Jack Wads- worth, clever staff artist, and Bill McDonald and Robert Prentice, dependable feature writers, were in great part responsible for the continued success of The Santa Clara, single university organ published regularly through- out the war. The participation of Jack Conner in varsity baseball as an agile shortstop and Glen Harris as a rugged guard in basketball rounded out the sphere of activitiy which was the testing and proving ground for so many second-year men.

The first year in College is usually a time for adjustment to neAAr surroundings and new methods. The freshman is allowed to become acclimated to his new home before any extra- curricular responsibilities are thrust upon him. Such was the case in the past. But because the freshman class this year represented one- half the student body, it was necessary that their aid be enlisted if the many university organizations were to continue to exist. As a class the freshmen entered wholeheart- edly into the swing of things and managed to provide the manpower needed to maintain each group. The Santa Clara staff was well- padded with first-year men among whom were William Lyons, camera-wise photographer, James Bowe, energetic business manager who garnered enough advertising to more than cover the cost of publication, and Richard Blickle, who as circulation manager piled up hours of hard, behind-the-scenes work mailing the paper. Drama, too, became a chosen field of en- deavor for the class of ' 49. Alessandro Baccari, Leonard Jones, and John Banister gave ample indication of a bright future on the stage of the Ship. The class was perhaps best represented in sports with Frank Faraone, Andy Collins, Tom Guerin, and George Nichols playing consist- ently enough to earn their blocks for var- sity basketball. Big Tom Kelly and Jerry Gliebe in baseball and Mickey Adza in football gave the first year men a place in all major sports at the university. Chosen in September to lead the class were Tom Guerin, President; Tom O ' Connor, Vice- president; James Bowe, Class Representative; Thomas Rosewall, Secretary; Jack Regan,, Sergeont-at-Arms. Notable, too, was the participation of the forty-niners in the intramural sports. The frosh from the upperclassmen in a three game play- off.
