Vice-President Within the past three years the University of Santa Clara has undergone a tremendous transition. She has abandoned her role as a small school, and has taken on the burdens of larger institu- tion of higher learning. This process of change was not accom- plished without considerable growing pains, and yet El Dorado ' s first born daughter underwent this transition gracefully and without fanfare. Such an achievement is a credit to those men who guide her course. If it is true that the spirit of a school is personified by the motivating force behind it, then the spirit of Santa Clara is Father William G. Gianera, S. J. Father Gianera came to Santa Clara as a student in 1903. He left in 1907 to join the Society of Jesus and in 1914 he returned to the University where he remained as a teacher until 1917. Finally after the long period of Jesuit training was completed, Father Gianera returned to the mission campus in 1926 to become Vice-President of the school; after holding this office for two years, he assumed the office of Dean of Faculties in 1928, and remained in this capacity until 1945 when he became president of his Alma Mater. Around him. Father President has gathered a staff of competent and able men to help him administer the University. The most prominent of these men is Reverend Edward M. Stretch, S. J., who holds the vital position of Vice-President. Like Father Gianera, Father Stretch also calls Santa Clara his Alma Mater, but unlike the President, Father Stretch returned to the mission campus only three years ago. Immediately prior to this date he served as a Chaplain in the Army. Handling a post which all too often requires long hours and which constantly demands a keen understanding of men. Father Stretch has merited the respect of faculty and students alike. His work as moderator of the Student Congress and of the Redwood has shown him an excellent administrator. When Father Ernest P. Watson, S. J. attended Santa Clara hack in 1908, he won the reputation of being one of the hest baseball players of the decade. Today Father Watson is a key man on Father liianera ' s advisory board, since he holds tlie position of treasurer of the University. His efficiency and difjiiitv have won him the respect of both students and parents. The important job of {gathering information on candidates for admission to the University for pres- entation to the Committee on Admissions is filled by Father James A. King, S. J. In addition to this position. Father King also acts as the Dean of Facidties, anil during the second semester of this school year, he replaced Rev. Charles S. Casassa, S. J., the newly appointed president of Loyola Uni- versity, as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Father King, who is regarded as an outstanding authority in the field of education, assumed his present position in 1945. This year two new men were added to the advisory board. The first of these was Reverend Charles F. Gunther, S. J. who has the difficult job of maintain- ing the buildings of the University and improving them to meet the demands of the increased student body. During his brief tenure of office, Father Gunther has made several important improvements around Santa Clara ' s campus. Reverend Karl Von der Ahe, S. J., who fills the post of Student Counsellor and Chaplain of the University, is also a new addition to the advisory board. Father Von der Ahe has shown himself to be considerate and competent in attending to spiritual aid of the students and encouraging the modeling of the Santa Clara man after the Man-God. JAMES A. KING, S.J Dean of Faculties ERNEST P. WATSON, S.J. Secretary-Treasurei CHARLES F. GUENTHER, S.J. Administrator STUDENT COIVGRESS JOHN V. DIEPENBROCK President The highest student group on the campus is the Santa Clara Student Congress. Meniliership in the Student Congress entails a responsiliility to pro- mote, coordinate and direct all university activities. The members of the 1948-49 group accepted this responsibility and handled it well. Led by Student Body President John V. Diepen- hrock, this year ' s Student Congress aimed for prac- tical achievement, and tried to leave the university something lietter than they found it. The fine com- munity spirit that they have built among the stu- dents attests to their success. During the year, four new organizations were recognized by the Congress. First was the Manana Soccer Club, for the foreign students who wished to continue playing the national sport of their home lands. Later the Congress recommended that soccer be made a minor sport. Then the Alpha Phi Omega fraternity was recognized. The active Ski Club, who ran the Santa Clara Ski Lodge at Soda Springs, was next to be given official status. In the second sem- ester, the newly formed constitution of the Student Managers ' Organization was presented. During football season, an agreement to dis- courage inter-campus pranks of a destructive nature was made with St. Mary ' s College and the Univer- sity of San Francisco. This resulted in an almost paint-less year for the Santa Clara campus. Early in the first semester, arrangements were made by the Congress for the sale and distribution of the newly printed song book. Containing arrange- ments of university favorites for piano and voice, MICHAEL J. ADZA Vice-President JAMES D. CANTY Secretary THOMAS J. KELLY Treasurer m ALFRED M. LEONETTI Serjeant-at-Arms JEROME C. EAHEY C.I.C Representative this hook was sold throujih tlie hall representatives, the Book Store and Co-op. Setting up the machinery lor the election of the National Student Association delegates was the first task of the spring semester. Then hegan the success- ful student relief drive. Tickets were handled hy the hall representatives under the direction of the Con- gress. This project took up almost three months of the second semester. Perhaps the most important action of the year, however, was the push given to student activities by the Congress. Three special meetings were held, the first to discuss the problems involved, the second to propose remedies, and the third to which were invited the leaders of all campus organizations. The conclusions reached at these meetings should have lasting effects towards the betterment of the uni- versity. Assisting Diepenbrock this year were the follow- ing student body officers: Michael J. Adza, vice- president; James Donald Canty, secretary; Thomas J. Kelly, treasurer, and Alfred M. Leonetti, sergeant- at-arms. The presidents and representatives of all four undergraduate classes, and delegates from cam- pus organizations comprise the remainder of the Congress. The annual President ' s Day program completed the 1948-49 agenda. Appreciation of the work of these men will only increase in future years as the fruits of their efforts become more and more ap- parent. STUDENT CONGRESS first row, left to right: D.

SULLIVAN Vice-President President Jim Arbios led the class of nineteen hundred and forty-nine in its last year at Santa Clara. This outstanding class leader, who has won the respect of all who have known him during his four years at Santa Clara, was elected president early in September, 1948. He was ably assisted by Don Sullivan, vice-president; Dick Bauer, secre- tary; Bob Boscacci, treasurer, and Bert Galligan, sergeant-at-arms. Senior Jack Diepenbrock was the president of the student body, while seniors Micky Adza and Tom Kelly served as the competent vice-president and treasurer. Faculty moderator of the Senior class was Rev. Joseph F. Rock, S.J. Leading the Business Administration in a re- markable year of activities was Jim Bowe, who was also this year ' s efficient editor of The Santa Clara. Prefect of the Sodality was Jerry Fahey, and Jim Arbios was the president of the Sanctu- ary Society. Seniors were also leaders in the Engineering Society where Henry Miller served as that organi- zation ' s president, and where Peter Engli, Dick Bauer, and Paul D. Smith acted as the presidents of the A.I.E.E., A.S.M.E., and the A.S.C.E. re- spectively Bill Donnelly was the invaluable head mana- ger of the football squad. He has been a football manager since his freshman year. His brother, Ted, was instrumental in organizing the Santa Clara Marching Band. In the field of sports such senior Varsity grid men as Mickey Adza, Bill Sheridan, Moe Chavez, Vern Hare, Tor Spindler, Al Martin, Bill Renna, and Les Tikvica will be long remembered as help- ing to make the 1948-49 football season one of the most successfvd in Santa Clara ' s history. Bill Renna, as in former years, demonstrated his athletic versatility by reappearing on the base- ball diamond during the spring season. With him was his hard hitting classmate, Tom Kelly. The able representative of the senior class this year in the boxing ring was wiry Tom Mclnerney. Highlights in the senior year of activities were the annual senior ball, which was a tremendous success, and the Senior Retreat which was held at El Retrio San Inigo, the Jesuit Retreat House at Los Altos, RICHARD L.

Ending with seven wins, two losses, and one tie, the Broncs proved to be one of the best clubs on the coast. The 1948 schedule was definitely the hardest that the Santa Clarans have seen for many a year. After losing their first encounter, 41-19, to the California Golden Bears, the winners of the Pacific Coast Conference, the Mission lads pulled one of their amazing upsets that earned them the name of Giant Killers. The Broncs, playing host to the Oklahoma Sooners, squeezed out a three- point win and with this victory won the distinction of being the only team to defeat the Sooners. In the Sugar Bowl con- test on New Year ' s day, the Oklahomans knocked over the highly touted gridders from North Carolina. In the following three weeks the Broncs totaled 119 points as they rambled through Fresno State, 45-7; Stan- ford, 27-14; and in Los Angeles, Loyola, 47-0. But in Dallas, Texas, the once beaten Southern Methodist Mustangs, with All-American Doak Walker leading the way, rolled over a tired Santa Clara aggregation, 33-0. The Broncs came back to Kezar Stadium to outpass the Dons of the University of San Francisco, 25-13. They then moved to Sacramento for the game of the year. In six pre- vious games the Nevada Wolfpack had amassed a total of 64 305 points and Stan Heath, their ace passer, was the leader of offense in the nation. But again the giant killers, playing hard-hitting football, shut out the Wolf pack, M-0. The Bront ' os received the scare of the season as they slipped hy Saint Mary ' s in the Little-Big game, 10-7. For the second time in two years the mission school retained possession of the hell which is a trophy between the rival colleges. Two weeks later the Broncos hosted highly touted Michigan State at Kezar Stadium, The Spartans, an- other one of the leading teams in national football, were lucky to tie the Broncs, 21-21. This was, from the viewpoint of action, the best game of the year. Playing their last ball game for S.C.U. were seven seniors, all of whom distinguished themselves in at least one game. Billy Sheridan, excellent in the Stanford and U.S.F. games; Al Martin, who over shadowed Stan Heath in the Nevada contest; and Moe Chavez, the boy who by his field goal won the Little-Big game for the Broncs, are all senior quar- terbacks who will receive their diplomas in June. The center spot will be vacated by the alternate first stringers. Bill Renna and Mickey Adza; both of these lads, who also played in the East-West Shrine game on New Year ' s day, did wonderful jobs all season. At right half, Vern Hare, captain for the 1948 campaign, will have completed his four years in June. Tor Spindler, a steady tackle, also played his last game for the Bronco varsity. LEN CASANOVA Len Casanova, football head man on the Santa Clara campus for the last three years, has just com- 1 • ' « ' . m 1 li CAPTAIN VERN HARE pleted his most successful campaign as mentor of the varsity. With expert aid from his assistants, Casa- nova utilized his men with a maximum of efficiency and a minimum of loss. Coaching high school ball from 1928-1936, Cas received an offer from Buck Shaw to be assistant coach at the mission. Upon returning from the Navy, Casanova took over the job of leading the Santa Clara varsity. As long as coast football fans gather to talk their favorite sport, the mighty boot of Len Casanova in the 1923 Little-Big game will be remembered. The 98-yard masterpiece is still in the record book and appears to be safe for some time to come. Casanova was honored when he was named Champion of Champions by 365 sports enthusi- asts early this year. The coach looks forward to a successful 1949 season and hopes that his team is filled with as much spirit as it had this past season. Lejt to right: Len Casanova.

CAL WINS OPENER The 1948 football campaign opene l with a bang as the University of California grid machine came through with a rousing 41-19 victory over the strong but relatively light Bronco eleven before 45,000 fans at Cal ' s Memorial Stadium. The contest featured a scoring duel between All-American Jackie Jensen and Hall Haynes. Jen- sen scored twice while averaging sixteen yards |)er carry. On the other hand Haynes. averaging 12.2 yards, accounted for 18 of the Bronco ' s 19 points. Pappy Waldorf ' s (rolden Bears, who ended their regular season undefeated and fourth in the nation, rocked the Bron ' s as Jensen raced 64 yards on the first play from scrimmage. With seven minutes gone in the second period and Cal coasting on a 14-poinl lead. Ilall Haynes sliced through his own right tackle and raced H8 yards to pay dirt. The Bears scored once more in the period and led 21-6 at the intermission. With only a few minutes gone in the sei-ond half, after a few exchanges of downs, Mr. Ha nr again scored, this time on a 51-yard jauni. The third Bronco T.D. came when Haynes bulled his way from the one-yard line. As the final gun blasted, the Bron«-« supporters were pessimistic of the coming seas( n, but this was one of onlv two Bronco defeats.

BRONCS TIP OKLAHOMA Recovering from a defeat at the hands of the Bears tlie preceding Saturday, the hattling Brones came from hehind in the final quarter to upset a favored Oklahoma Sooner eleven, 20-17 before a small crowd at Kezar Stadium. The victory could have been a treat to the citizens of the Bay Area , hut they failed to take advantage of a good hall game. J ' .

Trailing by a 10-0 score midway in the second quarter. Sheridan passed 19 yards to end Monty Os- born for the first of three Santa Clara counters. Moe Chavez ' conversion reduced the Sooners ' lead to three digits. On the first play following the kickoff (ieorge Thomas took a lateral and raced 82 yards to the second Oklahoma touchdown. The conversion com- pleted their scoring for the afternoon. Their 17-7 lead held at the half time intermission. In the third period the Brones looked like a new outfit. Al Martin passed 40 yards to end Ellery Wil- liams who made one of his sensational catches be- tween two Sooner defenders. On the next play Sheri- dan, inserted for Martin, caught the Oklahoma team out of position as he bootlegged his way around right end untouched for 19 yard.s. Chavez again con- verted and the Brones were in striking distance of victory. With nine minutes remaining in the contest Sheri- dan struck again. He passed 26 yards to Hall Haynes who nagged the ball on the Sooner 30, faked the safety man out of [)osition. and raced with ease into the end zone. Clunez mi sc(l on the conversion try, but the margin wa ciiough for victory. It nuist be noted that the defeat from the Brones was the only one suffered by the Oklahomans. They plaved and defeated North Carolina in the Sugar Bowl. f%i- : BRONCS SMOTHER FRESNO STATE The Broncs traveled to Fresno to engage in their first night game and left Ratcliffe stadium with an impressive and easy 45-7 victory before 25,000 fans. The score could probably have been doubled had Coach Len Casanova decided that he wanted it that way. But the story was different; the bench was cleared as even the third and fourth stringers shone. Sparking the fast Bronco attack were Big Jerry Hennessy in the line and Len Napolitano, sopho- more quarterback, who played his first game for the Bronco varsity. Hennessy scored two touchdowns himself and set up a third. But it was not so much what he did; it was how he did it.

Napolitano showed surprising accu- racy with his passes that averaged over thirty yards. The Fresno lone score carne as a result of a blocked kick and a pass from the hand of Bill Mont- gomery. Although the play of Hennessy and Napolitano was outstanding, it did not completely overshadow the performances of others. Torn Payne, Jim Buck- ley, Vern Sterling, Bill Sheridan, and Bud Dowling played their usual good games. This Bronco victory gives them a record of six wins and a single loss against the Bulldogs. Next year the Broncs will resume the series in the toughest schedule the Santa Clarans have handled since the war. Paul Conn applies finishing touch.

The second half proved to be ' rucial for the In- dians as the Missionites put the game on ice. Again versatile Billy Sheridan, on the fir.-.t pla of the third period tossed to Jerry Ilennessy for the score; then again, after the Broncs had rec( v« ' red another fumble, Sheridan pitched one to W illiams to com- plete the Bronco scoring for the day. This striking victory for the Broncos was primar- ily due to the fast and furious play of the Santa ( llara line headed by All-Ameriean Vern Sterling.

In shutting out the Lions, the Broncs started slow hut in the second quarter scored 27 of their 17 point total. The end of the first period saw the Missionites with the ball on the host ' s one- ard stripe and in the first play of the second period quarterback Al Mar- tin, acting captain, sneaked over for the score. Fol- lowing this, touchdowns came fast and furious. Bill Sheridan tossed 55 yards to Ellery Williams who raced an additional 20 yards for the T.D.

Led hy All-American Doak Walker, the Mustang eleven seeme l lo ha c no trouhle at all in j)utting the hall over the goal whenever they pleased. After alker had engineered three scoring drives. Coach Matty Bell pulled out most of the first string- ers and let the suhstitutes drive over the other scores. Santa Clara penetrated Mustang territory only twice, once in the o})ening minutes when Hall Haynes almost got away at the kickof f hut w as tagged hy Walker on the S.M.U. 49. The next Bronco chance came late in the first half when quarterhack Al Martin completed a 22-yard jump-pass to Jerry Hennessy. who carried to the Mustang 39, only to have the play canceled hy an offensive penalty. These two chances were the only ones given the Mis- sion squad during the game. It was Southern Meth- odist all the way. Although the Broncs looked worse than they did all season, they did siiffer a few had hreaks, penal- ties wiping out some of their infrequent good gains. Jim Canelo hlocked one of Kyle Rote ' s punts and the ball spun forward to be recovered by a Texan. The Broncs did succeed in ruining the .750 passing average of S.M.L. lta ' k Gil Ji)hnson. who at- tempted six tosses: of which two were intercepted, three incomplete, and one complete for an eight- yard loss. It should be noted that the Broncs entered the Cot- ton Bowl a tired group of ball players. They spent the previous three days in travel on a slow train and arrived in Dallas just a few hours before game time. This was a definite factor in the decisive loss. It was the worst of the season and worse than any loss in the last decade. % wV Williams na s another. franeiseo DONS STOPPED After the disastrous defeat at the hands of S.M.U.. the Broncos came back to tlie Bay Area to defeat the IJ.S.F. Dons 25-13, in their annual tilt at Kezar Stadium. Eighteen thousand fans were treated to a wide- open contest that saw all the scoring come as a re- sult of forward passes. The Dons scored twice on passes, whereas the Broncs scored three via the same route and added an extra by virtue of an interce| - tion. The Hilltoppers began the scoring parade in the first quarter on a short pass from the arm of Jim Ryan to end John Krsak. Don Panciera converted to give the Dons a 7-0 lead which they held through- out the entire first quarter. Santa Clara came onto the offensi e late in the initial period, and on the first play of the second quarter crossed the goal line for the first time. Quar- terback Billy Sheridan tossed a long pass to end El- lery Williams, who gathered the pigskin in on the 10-yard line and went across for the tally. Moses Chavez failed to kick the extra point. Seven plays later the Broncs took the lead. On the jnost spectacular play of the game, Billy The Kid Sheridan heaved forty yards to Williams. Wil- liams, who outran the U.S.F. safety man, Joe Mocha, took the pass on the five and added six more points to the Mission school ' s side of the scoreboard. Chavez added the extra point and at halftime Santa Clara led 13-7. The Dons, however, came back in the third quar- ter to tie the game. Quarterback Jim Ryan again shot the touchdown pass, this time to Fred Klem- enock. The play covered 40 yards. Center Mickey Adza blocked Panciera ' s try for point. Back into the game came Ellery Williams, And for the third time that afternoon Williams got be- hind Mocha to snag Al Martin ' s rifle pass on the Don nine and scooted into the end zone. The conversion attempt was no good. In the late minutes of the game, the Dons trying desperately to score, fired a pass that bounced off the hands of Bronc defender, Marte Formico, and into the arms of halfback Gene DeFilipis. who ran untouched to the final score of the game. Henncss ;ind Rvan (23) WOLFPACK BLANKED Even Stan Heatli, perhaps the most |)ul)litized player in the 1948 foothall season, conid not prevent the Nevada team from going down to defeat. 14-0. hefore the magnificent team play of the Broncos. The Broncs reached an all-time high for the sea- son in spite of the S-1 odds against them hefore game time. Time after ' lime the Missionites in the forward wall crashed through to stop Mr. Heath hefore he could get his tosses away. The hard driving suhsti- tute halfhack. Gene DeFilipis. and quarterhack A Martin ' s signal calling c(uitrihuted nuich in burst- ing the Nevada huhhle. Scoring once in the first quarter antl again in the seccmd, and maintaining game command throughout the entire contest the Broncs convinced the 24,876 fans at Hughes Stadium in Sacramento that they were the hetter team. Illustrative of the Broncs ' superiority are the statistics: the Santa Clarans made 16 first downs against Nevada ' s 13. The Broncs ran up a total of 312 yards, all from rushing, while their opponents racked up 123 yards from rushing and 113 in the air for a total of 236 yards. What makes the victory so nnich more impres- sive is that the Broncs played without the services of All-American Vern Sterling and halfback Hall Haynes. After the game the players carried coaches Ca.sa- n« va, Meister. Roche, and Forrest off the field in jubilance. In front of the locker rooms a continual roar made the stadium vibrate. In fairness to Heath and his friends who were out- played from kickoff to final gun. a whipping north wind blew down the field all afternoon, making passes difficult to throw and more difficult to re- ceive. The Wolfpack ended their regular season with only the loss to the Mission lads. But in the New Year ' s Harbor Bowl thev fell victims to Villanova. - Bijj Bull Henna tackles. Sherman Howard (451.

Page Seventy-jour BRONCS SUP BY GAELS, 10-7 The Bronco grid marhitif ran into a tough and stubhorn opponent in the St. Marys (iaels , liut man- aged to edge i)a.st tlie Moragans l y a 10 to 7 count. It was a cloudy Sunday afternoon in Kezar sta- dium, but 40,000 spectators turned out to watch the traditional foes fight for possession of the ' Bell. The Broncos retained the Litth -Big game trophy, hut by a much closer margin than the 14 points they were quoted before the opening whi tle. All 10 of the Bronco points were the results of footwork, and the 49.6 punting average of Hall Haynes showed the importance the kicking art played in the Santa Clara defensive gaine also. The Mission squad opened the scoring ledger in the late seconds of the first half. They were in pos- session of the ball on the Gael 17. fourth down and two. with 15 seconds left in the period. Moe Chavez, senior quarterback and place-kick specialist, trotted onto the field and calmly split the uprights for three points. The field goal eventually spelled victory for the Broncos. Hall Haynes scored the only Santa Clara touch- down of the afternoon. Late in the thinl quarter the Gaels were forced to boot from their own LS-yard stripe. Gerald Hamilton was back for the Gaels, and as the ball was passed from center he momentarily juggled it. The delay allowed Jerry Hennessy to penetrate the hackfield and block Hamilton ' s kick. Haynes dashed up from his left half position and scooped up the free ball. A ten-yard run brought his across the white line and into tlu ' end one for the l( ne Bronco touchdown. (Jiavez made the con- version good, and Santa Clara enjoved a ten-point lea l. The Moragans. however, were not to be denied and they came back strongly after the kick  lf. ISiiH plays from scrimmage carried them to the Bronco twenty-six. Sophomore Dick Jarvis dropped back from his (piarterback position looking for a receiver. Halfback iAcn Bell, stationed out on tlie flank, cut across the Bronco defense and took the pas on the goal line. A step into the end zone gave the (raels their lone tally. Lou Bradvicka converted to end the scoring. The fine punting of Haynes was climax ' (l bv a seventy-five-yard beauty that was reminiscent of Bronco coach Leu Casanova ' s ninety-cight-yard ))unt in another Little-Big game. With the ball on their own twenty, the Broncos called for a quick kick. Hall stepped back and lofted a high s| iral that ended up on the St. Marys four-yard line. ill Sherman picked up the ball, but could oidy make it back to the nine before he was stopped. This big advantage plus a short St. Mary ' s kick set the stage for Chavez ' s field goal. The Broncos backed up their scoring margin with leads in the statistical dejiartment also. Santa Clara gained 204 yards from scrimmage to St. Mary ' s 193. The Broncs made 14 first downs while the Gaels made only eight. SPARTANS AND BRONCS IN DEADLOCK, 21-21 Topping off an outstanding season, the Broncos of Santa Clara kept 22,000 fans at Kezar thrilled for sixty full minutes hy tieing mighty Michigan State 21-21 in the finale for 1948. Although definite favorites, the Spartans felt lucky to settle for a tie against the high spirited Broncos, whom they rated as comparahle to Notre Dame and. Penn State. A 7-0 Michigan State lead is what was needed to spark the Broncs. After an exchange of punts Moe Chavez packed a State punt hack to the Spartan 33. From this setup Bill Sheridan shot a pass to El Wil- liams who snagged it and raced into the end zone. Chavez ' s educated toe tied it up at 7-7. The Broncos were sizzling now, and with one minute remaining in the second period, Marte Formico intercepted a long Spartan pass on the Bronco 40 and raced it back 19 yards. A toss from Al Martin to Formico was good for 11, but there were only 16 seconds remaining to the gun. From the 30 Martin threw to Hall Haynes who hooked it on the IS and side-stepped his way to pay dirt. Chavez split the uprights again and the Broncs led 14-7 at the intermission. The Spartans, featuring a 46-yard dash by George Guerre, tied the game up, but not for long. From the kickoff the Broncs brought the ball back 81 yards in six plays. The drive was climaxed by Sheridan ' s pass to Williams in the end zone. Again Chavez con- verted, again the Broncs had a seven-point lead. But now the Staters came back fighting. A pass from Glick to Sobczack was good for 49 yards and six points. Although the scoring was complete, the excite- ment remained until die final gun. The Broncs, des- perate for another score, took to the air. Gilman of the Spartans intercepted one of Martin ' s passes and the Staters took to the offensive. With seconds remaining, John Duzanica duplicated Gilman ' s feat and traveled to the Spartan 18. The Broncs, unable to start another play, had to be content with a tie and a record of seven wins, two losses, and a tie for the season. ' ihed VERN STERLING Vern had the honor of making third team Ail- American in the standing of Grantland Rice and tlic Associated Press. On the United Press team Sterling was honorably mentioned. On top of these honors the Redwood City Junior was heaped with Pacific Coast laurels. By the Internationa! News Service Sterling made first string All-Coast, and hy tht Touchdown Club in San Francisco the hig guard was named tae second best lineman in northern Cali- fornia. Had it not been for a recurring back ailment that caused Sterling to miss a few games, he probably would have been much higher in the All-American standings. The strong 195-pounder was three years All- P.A.L. while playing high school ball at Sequoia. The marine vet is married and has a son named Gary. When he graduates he intends to take up coaching. HALL HAYNES T ' e 180-pound halfback from Pasadena, Cali fonr.a, besides being one of the Broncos top scorers v on the distinction of being the only one in two years to score three T.D. ' s against the California Bears. As a matter of fact, not one team scored thre« ' touch- downs against Cal in their regular season. Only in the Rose Bowl game did a team, Northwestern, im- prove on the 18-point effort of the shifty Bronco back. But this is not all ; in the punting department. Hall with a 42.4-yard average came out second only to Charlie Justice. As a matter of fact the average of Haynes ' eclipsed the old record that stood until 1948. l was Hall ' s punting and running that earned him a second string berth on the Associated Press ' All-Coast aggregation. ELLERY WHXIAMS Ellery Williams,, top notch end from Altadena. California, developed a big name in coast football during the 1948 campaign. He was nominated first string on the A.P. and LN.S. All-Coast elevens and received honorable mention on the A.P. mythical squad of the nation. The Touchdown Club vote l him as the top lineman of tlie year in the Bay Area. He, along with Hall Haynes, was the top scorer on the Bronco team during the past season. He per- sonally accounted for nine touchdowns for a total of 54 points. Ellery, a 181-pound, six-foot end, was famous in the Bay Area for outracintr defensive safeties and easily snagging passes untouched. FRONT ROW, left to right: L. Williams, B. Brown, J, Pasco, J.

FRESHMAX FOOTBALL Following an unfortunate start against Santa Rosa J.C, Santa Clara ' s freshman gridders rolled through their remaining four games without a set- back and climaxed their season with a thrilling 13-6 triumph over a strong St. Mary ' s frosh eleven. Labeled the Centennial Kids at the start of the season, the 1948 yearlings are counted on to lead the Broncs to another Sugar Bowl in their senior year, which will be the university ' s centennial year. Under the colorful and ebullient Eddie Forrest, COACH EDDIE FORREST F making his debut in the coaching profession, the Colts picked up momentum with each succeeding game until at the season ' s close they were rated among the top freshman elevens on the Pacific Coast. The opener against Santa Rosa J.C. found Santa Clara outgaining its opponents by a wide margin only to lose, 12-0, when the Bear Cats cashed in on a fumble and a pass interference penalty for two tallies. Fumbles and pass interceptions ruined pos- sible scoring opportunities for Santa Clara. The yearlings hit the victory trail the following week, however, in a rough-and-tumble contest with the U.S.F. Frosh. Quarterback Johnny Pasco pitched two touchdown passes and Abe Dung, the sensational left half from Honolulu, tossed another to lead S.C. to a 19-0 win. The Fresno State Frosh were the next victims, coming out on the short end of a 41-27 count in a wild-scoring battle which saw the Colls come from behind after trailing, 14-7, in the first period. Santa Clara led, 2 1-14, at the halfway mark and pulled away in the second half to win easily. In their most impressive showing of the campaign, the yearlings hammered Stockton J.C, 48-12, for their third straight win. Stockton, rated one of the hest junior coUege elevens in northern California, held a temporary 7-6 edge when quarterhaek Jerry Griffin returned an intercepted pass 99 yards, hut the Missionites eanie roaring hack with a vengeance to completely swamp the junior college eleven. High- light of the game was an 8S-yard touchdown sprint hy fullhack Hank Burget. Fran Hare hooted six out of seven conversions for Santa Clara. The final game of the fresh season pitted the Colts against the unbeaten St. Mary ' s Frosh. With only a tie with the Cal Frosh to mar their record, the Moraga yearlings were rated high, and in the first half, they displayed a powerful offense which vir- tually swept the locals off their feet. Santa Clara was fortunate to escape at the intermission trailing only 6-0. The second half was a different story. The fired-up Santa Clarans, playing inspired football, drove back in the third quarter with Dung cracking over from the five after a 33-yard pass from Pasco to end Dick Wiborn and a five-yard buck by fullback Bruno Vial had placed the Colts in scoring position. The trusty toe of Fran Hare gave the Red and White a 7-6 lead, which they increased to 13-6 on a tally by right half Del Rasmussen. The second six-pointer was set up on a Pasco-to-Rasmussen pass play which found Del picking up 53 yards on an excellent sprint after snagging the short pass. For the yearlings, individual stars were nuuier- ous. In the backfield Abe Dung, the swivel-hipped Hawaiian star, played brilliant football in every game at his left half post. Johnny Pasco, ace passer from Chicago, and his understiuly, Ralph Richley, handled the quarterback duties capably, and both Fran Hare, the conversion expert, and Del Rasmus- sen starred at right half. The fvdlback spot was ably manned by Bruno Vial and Hank Burget. In the line big Ed Rotticci, the 215-pound center from Modesto, was a tower of strength throughout the season. Flanking him were two top-notch guards in chunky Don Bordenave and scrappy Ben Brown, captain in the St. Mary ' s frosh game. Frank Clark and Stan Simich also played good ball at guards. The tackles were handled in capable fashion l)y Bill Sans, a slashing blocker and tackier, and Gene Pisenti, who improved rapidly during the season to merit a starting berth. Dick Wiborn, the speedster from Santa Barbara, held down one picket in com- petent manner with Jerry Scheid and Larry Wil- liams seeing plenty of game action on the other end. To Coach Eddie Forrest and his hardworking assistants, Armand Bones Ferrante and Guy Gia- copuzzi, should go much credit for a successful sea- son. BOB KEIFER CHEER LEADERS No football season would be complete without an organized cheering section. Santa Clara, always a small college, has necessarily had cheering sections that were small in number. But what it lacked in size was com- pensated for by a stirring spirit. As in the past, this year the Bronco rooting section gave its teams the utmost support, not only at the games, but at the rallies, sendoffs, and welcomes. The section gave in a vocal way to the athletes the support at all the games. Win or lose, the cheering section let the players know that they were being supported. An excellent example of this is seen as the Bronco gridders came back from Dallas, Texas, where they had been drubbed in the worst defeat of the season. At the train depot 200 howling fans greeted the gridders as if they were vic- torious. The success of the rooting section depends for the most part upon the yell leaders conducting the yells. In the 1948 football season the larg- est cheering section was in the complete control of three yell leaders. At the games, at the rallies, at the sendoffs it was Bob Keifer, Angelo Sira- cusa, and Dave Geoffrion who organized the section into a continual chat- ter. The three leaders were proud of their team and they showed this by inspiring yells and chants that they led. Left to righl: D. Geoffrion, R. Keifer, A, Siracusa. RALLY COMMITTEE The rally coininittee this year was headed hy the energetic Tom Kaney, who, with his cohorts. Cliff Bettinger, Lou Rudolph, Kip Latno, Dan Liefgreen, Boh McAnaw, Al Baccari, Tom Gilshannon, and Boh Kilhurg cond)ined their talents to present some of the finest rallies in many a pigskin season. Pre-game rallies were staged before the (California, Stanford, Nevada, and St. Mary ' s games; also spirited sendoff gatherings were organized for the Loyola and Southern Methodist encounters. The highlight of the committee activities was the very impressive St. Mary ' s bonfire and rally. In departure from the custom of the past, Kaney used a predominance of campus talent and student organized skits at the rallies. However, for the St. Mary ' s rally, held in the Ship, Kaney brought in Bill Baldwin, of radio and television fame. At the games themselves the rally committee was especially active. Prior to game time Kaney and his men took charge of the seating arrange- ment and general order of the rooting section. At a few of the contests the Committee put on some very impressive and beautiful halftime card stunts. TOM KANEY FIRST ROW, left lo right: D. LieUreen, R. McAnaw, T. Gilshannon. SECOND ROW: I,.

BASKETBALL Competing against the top teams on the Pacific Coast, the Santa Clara varsity hoopsters rang down the curtain on their 1948-49 cage campaign with seven wins and fifteen losses. The luckless Broncos, a good first half hall club, compiled 1077 points in their twenty-two game slate.

There were two main factors that contributed to many of the Bronco losses in the mediocre season: first, the mission five, averaging six feet, was one of the smallest, if not the smallest, hoop squad on the West coast. Inconsistent rebounding by the Bronco players had its effect on the final score; secondly. Bob McKillop, 1947 all-Cow Palace selection and Bronco star forward, sat most of the games out due to an injured knee. Joe Greenbach, stalwart guard on last year ' s five, also had the same trouble and missed many games. In spite of these hindrances, the Broncs were able to capture their annual rivalry series against St. Mary ' s. A third game would have been played had the two teams each won a previous encounter against the other ; but the Broncs, playing inspired ball, took care of the potentially strong Gaels in two straight contests. The first one, at San Francisco ' s Cow Palace, saw the Moragans fall 46-37 before 2,000 fans. In the second meeting at the San Jose Civic Auditorium, the Broncs racked up a 61-52 victory. Leading tlie Bronco hoopsters during the past sea- son was Andy Collins, sharp-eyed sophomore for- ward. Coming to the first string ranks the hard way, Collins definitely proved that he was of great value 84 1 to Ray Pesco ' s team. Scoring 189 points in 19 con- tests, Collins topped the scoring average with ten connters per game. On the defensive side Joe Green- bach, George Stein, and Boh Sunderland all held potentially high scoring Bronco opponents down to few points. The 1948-49 hoop campaign finds the end of the college careers of two of the Bronco hoopsters. Joe Crowley, a consistent scorer and second in the point parade with 165 points, graduates along with George Nichols, whose stellar relief play was very instru- mental in bringing home victories. Bronco followers look with optimism to the 1949- 1950 season when the mission school should once again regain its standing as one of the top flight coast squads. With the return of hard rebounding Joe Green- bach and Bob McKillop, the Bronco five should greatly improve. The experience alone of the two hoopsters should prove to be a great asset to Santa Clara. Along with McKillop and Greenbach, other returning varsity lettermen are Andy Collins, George Stein. Bob Sunderland, Tom Guerin, Frank Faraone, Paul Holm and Jack Holmes. With these men forming the nucleus of the 1949- 1950 basketball squad, Ray Pesco will be able to mold the strong, smooth functioning team which will enable Santa Clara to attain the prestige it has held in years past.

Ind f e DONS WIN TWO The l niversity of San Francisco Dons, winners of the National Invitational Tournament, completed their rivalry with independent schools without a de- feat as they doul led wins over the Broncs in Cow Palace and Civic Auditorium contests. The Dons, proud possessors of a seasonal average of a 29.5, lost four of their games to Pacific Coast Conference op- ponents. Against the Broncs, St. Mary ' s, and Loyola, the hilltoppers made a clean sweep. In the first contest the Dons had to overcome a 26-15 halftime lead held by the Broncs. The Bay Area lads took their 54-47 game thanks to the record- breaking performance of center Joe McNamee who in the second half alone broke the Cow Palace scor- ing record as he garnered 30 points. His 38 for the game still stands as the tops in the San Francisco arena. The Broncs were without the services of forward Bob McKillop, and star guard Joe Greenbach saw very little action. Andy Collins swished eight field goals and a free throw to lead the Bronco scoring. In the second encounter George Stein sparked a Bronco rally that nearly led to the downfall of the Dons. With four minutes remaining and the Dons leading by 16, Stein and his teammates connected for 1 1 consecutive points, but a Don-charity toss gave the visitors a 49-43 lead as the buzzer sounded. denf- BRONCS SPLIT WITH LOYOLA Playing once in Los Angeles and once in the San Jose Civic the Bronco baskethallers earned a split with one of the independent powerhonses of the Sonth. Each team, winning their home game, defi- nitely proved their snj)eriority over each other. The Lions held the Broncs to their lowest score as they won 45-37. With McKillop, Crowley, and Holm pacing the attack the Bronco jumped to a lead that was quickly relinquished, and after six minutes the Southerners took a lead that they never gave up. The Broncs. hehind only by four points at the inter- mission. com|)letely folded in the second half as little Johnny Donavon poured thirteen through the hoop. The second contest was a different story. The Mis- sionites showing completely reverse form scored an unbelievable 30 points in the last eight minutes to win 6.3-5L The second half splurge was aided by fif- teen digits by Bob Sunderland who hit from every angle. Andy Collins, playing his usual good game, shared high-point honors with Sumlerland as he scored six goals from the field and three charity tosses. Andy (Collins ( 10) leaps high to score ajjainst Trojans. C.O.R, BRONCOS SPLIT Under the guidance of Frosh coach Paul Claudon the Broncs took the first game of two against the Tigers of Pacific 59-48, but in the final encounter of the ' 49 season the Missionites had an extremely cold night in losing 60-52. Again without Greenbach and McKillop in either of the contests the Broncs were playing with a great handicap. In the first tilt the Santa Clarans showed surpris- ing backboard control that was the main factor in the win. The Broncs, leading 33-21 at half, played the Tigers on even terms in the second period as they, notched their fourth win of the season. In the final contest of the year the Broncs fell to a quick barrage of Tiger buckets and were never able to take the lead. At one point in the second half, the Broncs were behind by 18 points. Bronco guard Tom Guerin led the Santa Clarans in the total points with 14. Joe Crowley, high in the first game with 14, totaled 11 in the second encoun- ter. BRONCS WIN LITTLE-BIG SERIES The Santa Clara hoopsters had one consolation in their 1948-49 campaign. In two straight games the Broncos won their annual rivalry series from the Saint Mary ' s Gaels. At the Cow Palace 2,000 fans watched the Broncs slowly and deliberately down the Gaels 48-37. It was only after 30 minutes of the game had gone by that the bucket brigade came. The first half saw the Broncs take the lead and never lose it. They left the floor at the intermission with a 24-12 advantage. After Frank Kudelka had brought the Moragans to within a few points of the lead the Missionites got hot. With Crowley, Collins, and Guerin hitting, the Broncs pulled away and were not again threatened. Joe Crowley won high point honors for the Broncs with 11 digits. Kudelka sc red 12 for the Gaels. In the second contest at the San Jose Civic Audi- torium the tempo was much quicker. With both teams fairly hot, buckets came fast and furious and the Broncs held a 35-28 intermission advantage. Fourteen of the Bronco points came in the last three minutes at which time they trailed the Moragans 26-21. Early in the second period the Gaels pulled ahead 39-38 but their lead was short lived. After the Broncs had knotted the score at 43 all, they proceeded to hit from all angles and to control both boards. They slowly increased their lead and won going away. Scoring for Santa Clara was distributed four ways. George Stein connected for 15 while Andy Collins combined five field goals and two charity tosses for 12. Joe Crowley and Paul Holm each hit 10 points. enC ' BRUINS ROUT SANTA CLARA The U.C.L.A, Bruins scored their sixth consecu- tive victory as they smashed the Broncs in Los Angeles 61-43. The winners of the Southern Division title of the Coast Conference took a commanding lead early in the game as they scored seven field goals before the Broncs could hit a single point. The Mis- sionites never recovered from the 14-point handi- cap and they were out of the running from then on. Ahead 32-22 at half, the Bruins steadily increased their lead until they were completely out of range. From then on the reserves took over until the final buzzer. Chuck Clustka scored 21 points while for the Broncs Bob McKillop and Joe Greenbach garnered 16 and 10 respectively. TROJANS SMASH MISSIONITES Playing on almost even terms with the Trojans of Southern California for the first half, the Broncos completely fell apart in the final twenty minutes as they were routed 71-50. The Broncs were held to 13 points in the final period while the Southerners hit for 39. Runners-up in the southern division of the Pa- cific Coast Conference, the Trojans could attribute their victory to two main factors: 1 — They meshed 21 out of 23 free throws, and 2 — Their defense was impenetrable; thus most of the Bronco shots were of the 20 and 30-foot variety. Bill Sharman, all-coast forward, was high with 23 points; 15 of these he scored in the first half. For the Broncs Andy Collins played his usual good game as he scored 15. INDIANS SWEEP SERIES In their second game of the season at the Cow Palace on December 4, a sparked Bronco team took control of the game early in the first half against a slow moving Stanford squad and chalked up a 26-15 lead by the end of the first period. But the Cards, led by their high-point man, George Yardley, came back in the second half and rallied to within two points of the Santa Clara lead. The Bronco five paced by Joe Crowley and Bob McKillop spurted to a six- point lead, but the Stanfordites pushed right back in a razzle-dazzle rally and managed to drop the win- ning basket through with just 30 seconds to spare to win 49-47. •• Stein (8) and Crowley (24) reboundini? uv.

T r .« BRONCS SLIP BY FIRST INTERSECTIONAL FOE A much improved Bronco five fought a forty- minute uphill battle to trim the Kansas State Jay- hawks 59-56 in the Broncs first intersectional con- test of 1948. The nip and tuck contest saw the Broncs jump to an early 9-1 lead, the largest lead of the g me; hut the Staters fought to a 9-9 deadlock then fought to take a 26-23 lead at the intermission. In the opening minutes the Jayhawks jiuiiped to a five-point lead which they held to the final mo- ments when a free throw hy Boh McKillop and two successive two-pointers hy Joe Greenhach gave the Missionites a 55-52 edge. Again the Staters took com- mand on two field goals, hut a short-lived command. McKillop potted one from 15 feet out, then Tom Guerin sank a lay-up shot to give the Broncs a three- point victory. High-point honors for the Broncs were split evenly as four Santa Clara cagers went into double numbers. Tom Guerin, high scorer for the evening, hit five goals from the field and four charity tosses for 14; 26 points were evenly distributed between Bob McKillop and Joe Greenhach who each hit six field goals and a free throw. Jack Stretch Holmes, who played a marvelous defensive game, hit for 11 digits. WOLVERINES SMOTHER BRONCS Before 5,000 fans at the Cow Palace the Wol- verines of Michigan University earned a split in their western series as they knocked over the Bron- cos 53-37. On the previous night the Michigan cagers were beaten by Stanford. In the first half of l)lay the lead changed five times with the leader having a margin of no more than three points until the final four minutes. A series of two handed set shots gave the hoopsters from the Big 9 a six-point half-time lead as they left the floor on the long end of a 22-16 count. In the second period the Wolverines changed their tactics and immediately increased their lead. As the tempo of the Michigan attack increased, so did their score, and within three minutes of the sec- ond half the visitors held a 30-18 lead. The Broncs never again threatened as their shooting average was quite poor. Leading the Bronco scorers were Joe Green- bach and Joe Crowley who hit for 12 and 10 respec- tively. BLACKBIRDS WIN 70-62 Showing pht ' iiomenal aocuracy from the field, tlie Long Ishind Bhickhirds fought all lh ' way to notch a 70-62 win over the luckless Broncs in the final intersectional contest for the Bronc cagers. The Long Islanders hit from every angle as they scored on 43 1 2 per cent of their field shots; this average is good in any league. But more phenomenal was the individual shoot- ing of Bronco forward Andy Collins. Collins took 15 tries and made nine for a .600 average; the first four of his tries netted him eight points and the Broncs an early 8-2 lead. The Blackbirds with three men over 6 foot 4 took quick control of both hoards when the Broncs started to miss and the visitors walked off the floor with a 36-32 lead. The Broncs came within a single point of the lead as Collins hit three for three hut then Sherman White and Jack French broke loose as the Black- birds ' lead stretched to ten points. The Broncs made a short-lived bid for the lead but time prevented any rallies as the Long Island hoopsters had an eight-point margin. HAMLINE WINS SIXTH STRAI(;HT The Hamline Pipers from St. Paul, Minnesota, were victorious for the sixth straight time in the 1948-49 campaign as they knocked over the Broncs 60-53 at the Cow Palace in a Decendier 23 encoun- ter. With six-foot seven-inch Vern Mikkelson using his superior height to score 25 points, the Broncs were helpless as the control of both boards went t( the Pipers. The Broncs, definitely an improved ball club, showed surprising strength in the first lialf as they held the Minnesota cagers to a 33-27 lead at the buzzer. Bob McKillop, who scored 12 of his 16 points in the first half, pulled the Broncs to within three points of Hamline. but a recurring knee injury forced him to the sidelines as the Pipers moved away. Besides McKillop ' s eight field goals, Joe Green- bach hit for eleven points. FRONT KOW, lejt lo right: P. Claudon, R. Henderson, R. Morris, P. Hayes, E. Chaver, G. Paul. BACK ROW: F. Castro, J.

FRESHMAX BASKETBALL The Santa Clara freshman hoopsters, featuring a mid-season win streak of nine consecutive wins, ended their 1948-49 campaign with nine wins and three losses. Piling up 526 points for a 43.8 average, the Bronco frosh allowed their opponents 473 points with not one of the opposing teams scoring fifty points. The season was highlighted hy little Eddie Chavez ' 158 points in eleven games. The tricky forward, averaging 14.4 points, also was a whiz on de- fense and on setting up plays. The Broncs, after dropping their first game to Sacred Heart High, 43-40, jumped quickly into the win column, with victories against Poly- technic, 56-47; Monterey Peninsula College, 49-34; Gallileo, 37-28; Pacific Grove, 46-32; Lincoln, 47-38; and Saint Ignatius, 35-25. In the annual rivalry series against U.S.F. and St. Mary ' s the Broncs won three out of four. Against the Don frosh in the first game, the Broncs, 92 paced by Eddie Chavez ' ' 16 points, won 47-38. Meeting in a seeond encounter at the Civic Audi- torium, the Dons completely subdued the Bronco Yearlings, 43-23. Chavez in this contest was held to three points while Willie Wong, Don sensation, hit for 15. In the Little-Big rivalry, the Broncs took two games from St. Mary ' s frosh, both in overtime. The Missionites took the first one, 50-48, and the second one, which was tied at the final whistle by a sensational 40-footer. was won by the Broncs, 55-48. Chavez scored 41 points in the two games. Members of the team were Gen e Faid, Charles Hawkins. Phil Hayes, Eddie Chavez, Stan Haack, and Fred Castro at forwards; Don Whalen, Bob Sullivan, and Bob Mitchell at center; Bob Cody, Stan Morris, Steve Nyland, Joe Kearley, and Bob Henderson at guard. Paul Claudon from San Mateo High coached the frosh for the first year and did a fine job with them. On a few occasions, Claudon substituted for varsity coach Ray Pesco and brought home varsity winners. Varsity Coach Pesco, Eddie Cliavez, Frosh Coach Claudon. Denny Sullivan lays one in.

BASEBALL If hustle and hard work will bring a California Intercollegiate Baseball Association title to a school, then the 1949 model Santa Clara diamond machine may turn the trick. In the first two encounters of the season the Broncs faced strong foes. In defeating the San Francisco Police, 9-8, and in losing to the state semipro cham- pion Moffet-Manteca nine, 11-10, the Broncs have shown one definite trait. The mission lads can pound the horsehide. Four homers in two games are en- couraging, especially against ex-AAA moundsmen like Manny Vargas, Bob Jensen and George Hughes. But there is one factor that must also be taken into consideration. Hitting nuist be combined with good fielding and pitching; and, although the eight Bronco pitchers are potentially the best in the league, the first five games have not brought out their power. Besides the games with the Policemen and Mof- fet-Manteca, the Broncs traveled to Boyes Springs to meet the strong San Francisco Seals. The Seals, with the combined pitching of Jack Brewer and Al Lein, two of the best in the Pacific Coast League, shut out the Santa Clara nine, 5-0. The Broncs were held to one hit, a single by Hal Toso. Against College of Pacific, three Bronco mounds- men fell apart in allowing the Tigers eight runs in the second frame. After the second frame Pacific was held to a single run, but the lead was too strong as the Broncs went down to their third defeat, 9-3. Against U.S.F. the Bronco batsmen went wild as they won, 8-6. Of the eight runs, five came as homers. Big Bill Renna pounded out two ; Joe Nally, Buzz Harrington, and Tom Kelly each slashed out one. The Santa Clara lineup runs as follows: Lou Ber- beret, big sophomore catcher, has shown a powerful bat. For the Frosh in 1948 Lou hit .428 and drove in runs in 18 out of 19 games. 96 At the initial sack for Patty Cottrell is lefty Hal Toso, one of the twin hrothers who have proved to be assets to the Broneo teams for the last two years. Hal, who also pitches, won four games in five starts as a tosser in 1948. Early in the season he was the only Broneo to eonneet for a hit against the San Francisco Seals. Alternating at second hase are Buzz Harrington and Bob Nard. Harrington, a sophonu)re, and Nard, a junior, have proven to be hitter-fielder combina- tions. Last season Nard started at the keystone sack for the Broncs. At the hot corner is reliable Bob Ferrari. Not too effective a hitter. Ferrari proved to be one of the best third sackers in the C.I.B.A. in 1948. Against Cal last year Bob tied a league record when he handled twelve tries flawlessly. Harvey Toso, snappy Bronco shortstop, has in his two years of varsity play earned two All-C.I.B. A. honors. In 1948 Harv smacked a solid .339 average, and is maintaining the same pace in 1949. Roaming the pastures is probably the best out- field cond)ination in college baseball. Strong on both offense and defense the Bronco outfielders can be very instrumental in making a championship team. At left field is tall Tom Kelly, who finished with a .313 in conference batting. A senior, Kelly bats left handed, throws right, and on occasion plays first base. In center is Bill Renna, the most powerful of the Bronco sluggers. In the first five games Renna smashed out four round trippers. In the first con- test against the San Francisco Police, Big Bill slashed out a homer, a triple, and two doubles. Joe Nally, right-handed junior, covers the right field patch. A strong arm and a sharp eye has earned Joe his first string berth. On the pitching staff are Dave Smith, who in 1948 was the only undefeated pitcher in the C.I.B.A., Gale Norquist, Tom Byrd, Don Absey, Don Keith, Bart Bartholemy, Gordon Palm, and Hal Toso. Rounding out the Bronco nine are Chuck Bedolla, a very steady outfielder, and Dan Buckley, relief catcher for coach Patty Cottrell. BRONCO PITCHING STAFF, left to right: T. Byrd, D. Smith, D.

FRESHMAN BASEBALL Most of the Bronco Yearlings have had considerable baseball season- ing in high school, American Legion, or semipro competition. Some of the frosh campaigners show definite signs of taking over a varsity post on Patty Cottrell ' s squad of 1950. Others have ample talent to letter as a fresh- man with the poise to stick in C.I.B.A. campaigning. On the basis of early season showing Coach John Schirle ' s lineup is as follows (according to batting order) : At second there is Don Callejon from Bellarmine Prep, where he played a year of varsity ball. Dick Columbini, a center fielder from Tacoma, Washington, earned all-state honors while playing for Lincoln High. At left field and batting third is Marcel Fiore, who played in the Ex- aminer All-Star game in 1948. Fiore played for Lincoln High in San Fran- cisco. In the cleanup position is Millard Fore, a catcher from Lodi. The back- stop earned a trip to Chicago in 1948 for his work in the 1948 American Legion All-Star game. At the initial sack is Joe Retallick, who played ball for Bellarmine Prep, in Tacoma, Washington. 100 In the number six position eovering the right fiehl pasture is Dick Wihorn. Dirk played two years of varsity hall at Santa Barhara Catholic High School. At shortstop and batting in the number eight spot is Jerry Meyers, a three-year man from Christian Brothers High in Sacramento. The pitching staff, although limited in number, is quite effective. The three hurlers who alternate at the mound position are lefty Phil Hayes, Eddie Chavez, and Bob Doyle. Hayes, a four-year man at Santa Clara High, pitched a shutout for the Red- woods, the Santa Clara Winter League team made up of university baseball players. Chavez tossed for Saint Vincent ' s High in Vallejo. Besides pitching, Eddie plays in the infield. Doyle, the big right- hander from Cathedral High in Denver, played four years of prep ball. One of the few undergraduate coaches in college baseball, John Schirle has been hustling his squad through daily drill. In the first three contests of the year, the Bronco Yearlings went undefeated. In the first two the Broncs eked out wins over San Mateo J.C., 6-5, and San Francisco Frosh, 5-4; against San Jose High the yearlings smashed out a 12-3 victory.

TENNIS The Santa Clara varsity tennis team, coached by Sam Delia Maggiore, started building this year for the future. The sport, which has been a major sport for the last two years, starts almost from scratch this season. Delia Maggiore, in his first year as the Bronco mentor, has a team green and inexperienced, but able and willing to build for 1950 and 1951. The squad is composed of four seniors and seven sophomores. Of the four seniors, two saw very little action. The ladder, as it stood on March 31, has Roy Oakes, a senior playing in the number one posi- tion. The lanky right-hander, playing number two under Al Martin on last year ' s squad, shows a ter- rific ground game. Second in the ranking is Steve Herle, also a senior and a veteran of last season when he played behind Oakes. The southpaw ' s outstand- ing point is his slashing serve. John Yamate, a sophomore transfer from Hartnell College, plays number three. New to varsity tennis, Yamate played and figured strongly on Hartnell ' s team. Playing number four is tall Jack Nalty, who has a good all- around game. On last year ' s unofficial frosh squad Nalty played number two. Fifth is another soph, Ben Moran, who is completely new to the Santa Clara tennis ranks. Moran has a very strong forehand shot while the rest of his game has little fault. In number six and seven spots are Paul and Vasco Leitao re- spectively. Paul, a lefty, plays an outstanding net game while his right-handed brother specializes in a swift and sharp service. Henry Schneider plays number eight and Al Cacho, potentially one of the best at Santa Clara, is number nine. Ranking ten and eleven are Chuck Bartell and Lloyd Scott. Against the Cal Aggies in the first meet of the 1949 season, the Broncs played without their number one and two men, Oakes and Herle; thus seven of the nine men were sophomores and were green to varsity competition. The other two are playing their first year for the Bronco varsity. The inexperienced team probably lost more men for its size than any other aggregation competing in Santa Clara athletics. Not returning to this year ' s team were Al Martin, number one of the 1948 club; Bob McKillop, an excellent net man; Tom Burns, who possessed probably the fastest serve on the team; Bob Smith, who specialized in twisting the ball, and George Greenfeld, a good ground player. An early season prospect, Neil Moran, was declared ineligible ; thus, the loss of these men, plus the fact that Oakes and Herle could play only infrequently decreased the strength of the team considerably. With the potentialities of this team, Delia Mag- giore assured Santa Clara enthusiasts that the teams of 1950 and onward will be comparable to the teams that now dominate West Coast tennis. 104 Sam Delia Maggiore, tennis boss.

BOXING AIVD WRESTLING The Santa Clara boxing team, coached by Bob Webber, and featuring the heavyweight boxing of Pat Walsh completed a six-match season on March 23 with one win and five losses. Losing their first two matches to Stanford and San Francisco State, the Bronco mittmen bounced back to edge out a six to five win over Chico State. In the last three encoun- ters the Broncs fell to San Francisco City College twice, and Cal Aggies. The highlight of the season came as the Bronc ' s heavyweight, Patty Walsh, traveled to Idaho to cap- ture the Idaho Invitational Tournament. The members of the team were : Don Schultz, 125 ; Ben Cassinerio, 135; Tom Mclnerny, 145; Bill Sul- livan, 145; Bill Schanbacher, 155; Fran Hare, 155; Bob Feurbach, 165; Paul Conn, 165; Dave Vanden- berg, 165; Bob Toquinto, 175; Bob Delorme, 175; Jim Buckley, 175; Pat Walsh, heavyweight. The wrestling in two meets could not earn a vic- tory. The grapplers, coached by Sam Delia Maggiore, were beaten by Stanford, 28-71 2, and the Olympic Club of San Francisco, 25-15. Members of the team were Ray Miser, captain; John Hock, Joe Rechenmacher, Neil O ' Keefe, Jim Doyle, Joe Revello, Don Schultz, Bones Ferranti, Don Bordenave, Keith Pritchard, and Bob Bolton. Representing the Broncs in the Far Western Tournament in Oakland were Big John Hock and Ray Miser. VARSITY CINDERMEN— FRONT ROW, left to right: B. Silveira, M. Braten. J. l.indskog, G. Giannotti, W.

In its second official year as a minor sport at the mission school, the field sport has grown ter- rifically since last year when the Broncs boasted of a good squad. Tom Mollard has been quite impressive in the 100 and 220-yard events. Against the Aggies, Mollard took second in the century and a first in the 220. Running the 440 and half-mile is Tony Villafranca, who has shown much potentiality in those two events. The all-around men on the squad are Roger Redig and John Lindskog. Redig has good times in the 100 and 220. He also does the pole vault and broad jump. Lindskog does the high hurdles and the javelin. Other outstanding members of the team are: 100 yards, Paul Conn, Pete Fitzpatrick, and Gene Gian- notti; 220, Paul Conn and Gene Giannotti; 440, John Scherrer, Bill Doolittle, Lou Lang; 880, Bob Silvera, Al DeMartini, Leighton Hatch; mile, John O ' Brien, Eugene Sullivan; two-mile.

Winning the first eight meets in nine starts the Bronco mermen lost only to the Cal Aggies hy two points. In losing the meet the Broncs were without the services of Jerry Tinling, who was undefeated, and his brother. Ted. Jerry, swimming the 440, 220, and relay, has not only gone undefeated but also has broken ( unof- ficially) the far western record for the 220. Ron Hansen, a freshman backstroke artist, also is unbeaten. Another frosh, Don Cunnnings, and sophomore Jose Apellaniz have both taken wins in the 200 breaststroke. Cummings also swims the medley relay. Leigh Josephson and Tom Kerwin have looked good in the 50 and 100-yard freestyle events. The diving combination of Ted Tinling and Lou Cooper has been a steady combination of first and second places in most of the contests. Also on the team are Donald Jones and John Metheny, 440 and 220 men. Harry Williams spe- cializes in the 50-yard freestyle. Frank Heffernan has been consistent in the backstroke events. Under the watchful eye of Coach Herm Meister, the Bronc mermen started in a successful fashion the first official swimming team in Santa Clara his- tory. Although swimming is a minor sport, in a few years Santa Clara is expected to have one of the powerhouses of the coast. GOLF GOLF TEAM— FRONT ROW, tejl to right: J. Herb, R. Wehner, J. Aubrey, D.

THE SANTA CLARA Heralded as the leading publication of the Mis- sion campus is the weekly newspaper, The Santa Clara. For two score years the campus organ has acted as the maj tr link between the active campus students and the alumni and friends of the Univer- sity. Directing in the publishing of twenty-three issues during the 1948-49 school year was editor-in-chief Jim Bowe. Editor Bowe is also the president of the BAA, and through his untiring efforts, and his ex- ceptional loyalty to the University, the school paper has maintained its high objective: that of being one of the best student weeklies in the nation. Bearing the burden in The Santa Clara ' s publi- cation have been veteran reporters Bill Macomber and Joe Boyd, news editors; Bud Fullmer, feature editor, and Sam Winklebeck, sports editor. Bob Bos- cacci. business manager, was ably assisted by Jim De Lorimier, John Dustin, and Bill McFall. Reviving an old custom this year, The Santa Clara worked in conjunction with the University journalism class. This project enabled the staff to accomplish one of the publication ' s major objectives: the training of students in the art of news writing. The staff for each page of The Santa Clara was large this past year, but the most outstanding re- porters were: Jim Binckley, Don Canty, and Charles Polzer. Joe Borges, Tom Gallagher, Mike Monahan, and Ernest O ' Banion assisted the hard-working feature editor, Budd Fullmer; while the able Sam Winklebeck had Bob Gilkey, Angelo Siracusa, and Mickey Laxalt as his assistants. Watt Clinch, Jim Fitzpatrick, Tom O ' Leary, and Tom Kerwin lent their hands at arranging the front page and rewrit- ing articles. Fritz Gemperle was the photographer; George Faugsted, cartoonist, and Tom Schilling, circulation manager. Faculty advisor. Rev. Robert E. McMahon, S.J. ; and moderator, Edward Warren, S.J., also gave generously of their time and effort to the publica- tion of The Santa Clara weekly. THE REDWOOD STAFF— FRONT ROW. left to right: R.

THE REDWOOD A seemingly lethargic student body almost saw the end of a long tradition as far as the Redwood was concerned. But under the conscientious and capable guidance of editor-in-chief Jack Sequist and his assistants sufficient funds were raised to insure the yearbook ' s publication. Business managers Herb Clark and Ned Hagan had charge of financial matters. Unassisted Fritz Gemperle handled the photographic work with ability and dispatch, while Tom Doyle and Joe Borges undertook the thankless and difficult task of securing subscriptions and advertisements. Profes- sor Robert Perillat took charge of sports cartooning, and a true friend of Santa Clara, Rev. Raymond J. Kelley, S.J., of Alma College, lent his talent gener- ously by creating several other cartoons. The athletic section stands as a tribute to the abil- ity of sophomore Angelo Siracusa and his assistants. Literary editor Mike Buckley, who was assisted by Kieth Varni, Basil Allaire, and Charles Polzer, is re- sponsible for the literary material in this year ' s an- nual. Finally, Bob Bounds takes credit for the excel- lent layout and story of the law section. But it was only through the cooperation of Rev. Edward Stretch, S.J., that Editor Seiquist was able to achieve his objective in making the nineteen forty- nine annual an investment which will increase in value from year to year. Thanks are also due to the untiring aid rendered by the Tom Collins photogra- phic studio for the splendid work accomplished in photographing the members of the student body and organizations; to the staff of our old reliable friends of the California Art and Engraving Company, and to those at Lederer, Street Zeus Co., Inc., for whose continuous advice and helpful suggestions we are in- deed grateful.

THE CLAY M. GREECE After a period of inactivity during the war years, the Clay M. Greene Society has this year become one of the most active organizations of the campus. This organization, named in deference to the memory of the noted playwright, is the dramatic organization on the campus. Through the tireless labors of its countless alumni, outstanding dramatic productions fill the theatrical history of Santa Clara. In keeping with its past tradition of excellent amateur acting, the Clay M. Greene Players pro- duced for their fall presentation the successful comedy, Arsenic and Old Lace. By revising the script of this Broadway hit to include an all-male cast, many agree that Mr. Donald Ranney, the group ' s excellent director, actually improved on the original showing. Congratulations for an outstand- ing performance go to a hard-working stage crew and to actors Jim O ' Neill, Al Thompson, Bob Lam- bert, James Aversente, George Murphy, Edwin Mc- Mahon, Ted Tinling, Pierre Scotty Macbeth, John Metheny, John Walsh, Tom Kerwin, and Clare Canelo. Early in the fall semester the society elected the following officers: Bob Lambert, president; Joe O ' Neill, vice-president, and Joe Borges, secretary- treasurer. This year ' s activities of the Clay M. Greene Society have been heavy with responsibility, since the members of the society were the sole exponents of stagecraft, and performed without the help of students outside the group. The players accepted the challenge and in the end won the applause and wholehearted support of the student body. FRONT ROW, lejt to right: T. Gallagher, R. Stoffel, R. Gosselin, D. Sullivan. E.

Under the direction of the Reverend Karl Von der Ahe, S.J., this organization has for its primary end the personal sanctification of its members. To accomplish such an objective. Father Von der Ahe stressed the need of a deep devotion to Mary and a manifesta- tion of this devotion by practicing charity and other virtues. This Sodality activity was evidenced in almost every spiritual exercise held for the students. The well-attended October and May Rosary devo- tions were under Sodality supervision, as was the program to increase interest in Our Lady of Fatima devotions. Furthermore, the pre-Christ- mas novena and the popular Christmas spiritual bouquet cards were both Sodality projects. Undoubtedly, however, the most important of Sodality activities is the teaching of Catechism by the members of the Missions Committee. This year over eighty children received instructions from this group headed by Harry Boyle. Rounding out the list of committees were the Marian Committee fos- tering devotion to Mary; the Eucharist Committee, engaged in spreading love of the Sacred Heart, and finally the Literature and Publicity Com- mittees. The former read and discussed Catholic books, while the latter was at the disposal of all the committees for their activities. On the feast of the Immaculate Conception, thirty-five probationers were admitted to the Sodality as members. Lastly, much of the Sodality ' s success can be credited to its hard- working prefect, Jerry Fahey. Sharing the credit with Fahey were Tom Gallagher, vice-prefect; Bill Ronchelli, secretary; and Bob Sunderland, treasurer. 118 SANCTUARY SOCIETY FRONT ROW, left to right: R. MacDonald, R. Gosselin, J.

Torre. mi BVSIXESS ADMIXISTRATIOIV ASSOCIATION Nineteen hundred and forty-nine saw the Busi- ness Administration Association, one of the most active of all campus organizations, follow a policy which it has maintained since its prewar reorganiza- tion. The B.A.A., which serves as an organization for future businessmen, was established for the pur- pose of providing business training in contemporary problems. Such practical instruction complements the ex- cellent classroom training and enables the student JAMES F. BOWE President of the College of Business Administration to keep pace with the development and growth of business. The society is fortunate in having for its modera- tor the Dean of the College of Business Administra- tion, Charles J. Dirkson, whose ability and efforts have assured the continuance of the organization ' s objectives. Through Dean Dirkson and this year ' s president, Jim Bowe, lectures by prominent speak- ers, proficient in every field of business enterprise, have been a monthly occurrence. Besides being outstanding in academic achieve- ments, however, the society was first to welcome in this season ' s social season by the traditional informal dance following the Stanford football game. The society also sponsored a picnic in the latter part of May, but the first annual senior dinner was the sparkling affair which culminated the B. A.A. activi- ties for the academic year. Officers elected at the conclusion of the 1947 Spring semester were seniors Jim Bowe and Bill Donnelly, who served as president and vice- president, respectively; Joe Nally, secretary; Bob Houseman, treasurer; and Ralph Borghetto was the association ' s sergeant-at-arms. Intelligence and activity were the bywords of the Business Administration for the year. The challenge of unprecedented numbers was affectively met by the energy and ingenuity of its members under President Jim Bowe ' s spirited leadership. EXGIXEERIXG SOCIETY f V ' 5 Again this year the Engineering Society has proved to be one of the largest and hardest-working organizations on the campus. The function of this society is threefold: to acquaint engineering stu- dents with the various phases of their chosen profes- sion by means of lectures given by men prominent in several fields of engineering, to afford the engi- neering students the opportunity of viewing engi- neering practice through field trips, and to promote social activities within the organization. Outstanding as the society ' s president this year was Henry Miller, who brought credit to the organi- zation by reviving the traditional ' ' Open House Day which was held in early spring on the Mission campus. This activity and the regular functions of the organization, supplemented by a number of special services to the student body, were carried out with great vigor and success. Two social functions held previous to the Open House Day keynoted the organization ' s activity. The first affair was the annual fall picnic which was given at Alum Rock, near San Jose, for the purpose of enabling students of the Engineering College to become better acquainted. The second was a very successful formal dance held at the Fairmont hotel in San Francisco. ' HENRY MILLER President During the 1948-49 year the Engineering Society built by far the largest bonfire in the history of Santa Clara to commemorate the traditional Saint Mary ' s- Santa Clara football game. The society held its an- nual presummer banquet in the latter part of the spring semester, at which time the traditional keys of the society were given to each senior engineering student by Dean Sullivan. Officers for this year included Henry Miller, presi- dent; Philip Gallagher, vice-president; Carl Schnei- der, secretary ; and John Frazer, treasurer. FRONT ROW, left to right: J. Conrado, F.

Boasting one of the largest enrollments in its history, the Santa Clara field artillery Reserve Officers ' Training Corps unit completed another suc- cessful year of military activity. In order to take care of the influx of cadets, two more hatteries were added to this year ' s battalion. The five hatteries now comprising the R.O.T.C. unit are Headquarters, Service, A, B, and C. The R.O.T.C. instruction is divided into two distinct courses. The ele- mentary course, which is given to the student cadet during his first two years of college, consists of formal instruction for a minimum period of three hours a week. It is not directed toward specialization in any definite branch of the service. Its purpose is, rather, to acquaint the student with the entire field of military service. The advanced course, for juniors and seniors, consists of formal in- structions for a minimum of five hours weekly. Only those students taking college courses and having completed the elementary course or its equiva- lent in the military service are eligible for the advanced course. Here in- tensive training is given in the strategy and tactics of the field artillery and allied units. Having completed the junior year, advanced course students 130 must attend a siiininer camp at an army base for six weeks. This is to give a practical as well as a theoretical training to the future officers. Officer in charge of the University ' s R.O.T.C. unit is Col. Lester A. Daugherty, professor of military science and tactics. He is assisted by Lt. Col. James D. Hand, Maj. Tacklind, and Capt. Blount. A number of non- commissioned officers complete the staff. Never before in the history of Santa Clara has there been so much interest in and respect for the R.O.T.C. Veterans who have returned to the campus realize the importance of military instruction on a college level, while the non-veteran students, cognizant that the R.O.T.C. offers them not only an excellent training but a challenge to serve God and Country well, have applied in encouraging numbers for the advanced courses in military training. This year the following students were given an additional six weeks training period at Fort Lewis, Washington: John Kilty, Bob Kilburg, Hal Beatty, Don White, Jack Todd, Bob Kemper, Dan Kraemer, Neil Boyle, George Lagomarsino, Frank Britton, Paul Conn, Bob Sunderland, John Kane, Ray Dempsey, John Doyle, Phil Lynch, Bob Smith, Leighton Hatch, Joe Greco, Bill Doolittle, Vin DiTomaso, Phil Helfrich, Ed, Farrell, Scotty Macbeth, Ray Harbert, Bill Macomber.

HUGHES Vice-President « Under the leadership of Ed Farrell, the Junior Class reached new heights in class enthusiasm and accomplishments. The fine showing on the part of many members in sponsoring some of the best dances on the campus, in the fields of academic endeavor, and in extracurricular activi- ties stamp the juniors as one of the best organized groups on the campus. Also responsible for this successful year were Ralph Hughes, vice-presi- dent; Pat Walsh, secretary; Vin Maloney, treasurer; and Jim Dowling, sergeant-at-arms. Rev. Joseph L. Martin, S.J., chairman of the department of religion, acted as class moderator. Don Canty held the honorable position of student body treasurer, while Al Leonetti served as sergeant-at-arms. The student body elected George Faugsted and Philip Patton, two capable juniors, to represent them at the N.S.A. meeting which will be held this summer in Champaigne, 111., at the University of Illinois. The presence of the class of nineteen hundred and fifty was also felt in athletics as is evidenced from the following: Hall Haynes, Bob McKil- lop, Paul Conn, Joe Nally, Gene Defillipis, Chuck Bedolla, the Fitzpat- ricks, Galen Norquist, Don White, Dan and Jim Buckley, Ellery Williams, Vern Sterling, the Tosos, Don Keck, John Duzanica, Tom Payne, Jim Canelo, Gene Yore, Jim Dowling, Jim Doyle, Pat Walsh, and George Stein. Acting as feature editor of The Santa Clara, Bud Fullmer showed his versatility at handling a very difficult job well. This year ' s Owl was fortunate in having for its editor, Jim O ' Neill, who is one of the most tal- ented students on the campus. Jim surrounded himself with a highly gifted and hard-working staff which included Philip Patton, Donald A. Sulli- van, and Bob Schindler. The Mendel Society drew its strength from the pres- ence of such noteworthy juniors as Joseph Barkett and James Buckley. Norman Sanguinetti, Alfred Leonetti, James Wallace, and (rcorge Lagomarsino headed the newly estahlished International Relations Cluh and were instrumental in making that organization one of the most active on the campus, while Paul Smith, Dick Caletti, and James Binckley were prominent in arrang- ing an excellent presentation of engineering achieve- ment during the Engineering Society ' s successful Open House. Joseph Nally, Herhert Clark, Ned Hagan and Rohert Gosselin were prominent junior business men and participated in man y campus activi- ties. The well-attended Junior Prom held late in April brought the activities of the academic year to a suc- cessful conclusion. PATRICK H. WALSH, JK. Secretary JAMES v. MALONEY Treasurer JAMES M.

LATNO, .IR. Vice-President The Sophomore Class of 1949, which will he the centennial graduat- ing class of Santa Clara TTniversity, was one of the most active groups on the campus. George Keenan, president; Arthur Latno, vice-president; Fred Farrell, secretary; Roderick Read, treasurer; and Louis Berberet, sergeant-at- arms, served as officers for the class. Albert Thompson, as Shylock, brought laurels to the class of 1951, when he won the annual Dramatic Arts Contest of the University. His presentation and interpretation of Scene 3, Act 1, of Shakespeare ' s The Merchant of Venice was a feat which won the star performer of Arsenic and Old Lace a reputation of being a new promising actor. The sophomores well represented Santa Clara in the major sports: on the football field Leonard Napolitano, Saxon Wraith, Marte Formico, John Justice, Gus Hakeem, and Louis Berberet were a few outstanding players who made up the successful 1948-49 Bronco grid machine. An- drew Buzz Harrington ' s high batting average guaranteed Santa Clara a high place on the coast league, while Sophomore Louis Berberet proved himself to be as versatile working behind the plate as on the gridiron. The backbone of the varsity tennis team consisted primarily of sophomores Vasco and Paul Leitao, Jack Nalty, Benny Moran, and Chuck Baufell. Neither were the minor sports denied of sophomore athletes. Jerry Tinling and Jose Apellaniz were ont- standing on the swimming team, while Bill Sullivan maintained his title as the school ' s numher one light- weight. Harry Boyle was the business manager on the Owl while Samuel Winklebleck headed the sports page of The Santa Clara. Patrick McNamara and Patrick Wallace lent their talents to the newly organized Santa Clara Marching Band. Peter Coniglio and Angelo Siracusa helped to guide the course of the Nobili Club. Both Siracusa and Joseph Borges were members of The Redwood staff. Charles Ries, William McFall, Frank Volpe, Anthony Oliver and Richard Peat were instrumental in organizing and administering the newly established Eta Alpha Chapter of the Alpha Phi Omega. With such an adequate representation in all major activities, the sophomore class of the University of Santa Clara looks forward to another successful year in 1950. FREDL. FARRELL, JR.

Whalen, M. Laxalt, A. Martin. FRESHMAN CLASS PETER D. MICKEY LAXALT President The freshman class of 1948-49, much like prewar freshman classes because of its singular lack of veterans, experienced a banner year. Its members attracted the attention of the University becavise of their unceas- ing enthusiasm in all fields of campus activity. Molding themselves into a friendly, well-organized group, the freshmen exhibited budding signs of the spirit of the future at Santa Clara. Hardly a campus activity was not whole-heartedly endorsed and supported by the newcomers to the mission school, and scholastically, as well as athletically, the first-termers noticeably excelled. In early fall elections, four capable officers were selected to hold the reins of the freshman government, and these students aided in planning class functions and stimulating freshman activity. Peter D. Mickey Laxalt made a capable and enthusiastic president for the class, and able assistance came from Donald F. Whalen, vice-president; Alfred R. Martin, secretary; and Donald Maddock, treasurer. With the unselfish advisory guidance of Father Robert McMahon, S.J., Freshman Prefect, this group brought the freshmen to the fore as a class organization. Throughout the year campus activity felt the intense pressure of fresh- man interest. Campus publications, especially, were bolstered by indus- trious freshman staff members who handled the chores like veterans. The Santa Clara was incalculably aided all year by the work of two second- semester freshman editors, sports editor Bob Gilkey and news editor Charles Polzer, together with a large group of freshman reporters. Polzer, Basil Allaire, Leo Bailey, Ed McMahon, and Charles Sacconaghi were in- strumental in the labor of completing this edition of The Redwood. Musi- cally, the freshmen accepted the brunt of the work in the choir and glee club. Campus debating societies and the dramatic field, especially the Clay M. Greene productions, found more than their share of willing freshman supi)orters. Outstanding athletic success was perhaps the shining glory of the freshman class. Losses were few, and a host of potential great stood in the limelight of distinction. A potent freshman football squad, appropriately hd)bed the Centennial Kids ' by Coach Ed Forrest, exhil)ited a polished style in their first crack at a four-season road to crowning aspiration — a Bowl game in ' 52! Studded with versatile gridders from far and near, the frosh im- pressively rolled to an excellent 4-1 season, and jiros- pects for varsity play were many. The frosh basketball squad, paced by watch-charm guard Eddie Chavez, drew plaudits for its successful record of ten wins to three losses. The first-year hoopsters surprised every- one with a well-balanced, smoothly-operating aggrega- tion. A powerful baseball nine also sparkled in inter- collegiate freshman competition. Classy fielding and heavy power at the plate soon set up the Bronc club as a team to beat in frosh collegiate circles. The newly- born Santa Clara swimming team also was composed of a majority of frosh members, and with this nucleus the members should continue in their winning, record- breaking ways for seasons to come. Track found a goodly number of aspiring freshman cinder men in action, rounding out a brilliant exhibi- tion of frosh athletic prowess. Frosh skier Ed Vranizan brought distinction to the school when he captured a fourth spot in the hotly contested Pacific Intercollegi- ate championships slalom race. Socially, the freshmen wrote an interesting, well- attended slate. At the opening of the fall semester, a beautifully decorated Freshman Reception Dance was staged for the incoming students by the Catala Club, and the class members, themselves, assisted in the prep- arations necessary to make the affair an enjoyable suc- cess. A riotous, unforgettable watch over the tradi- tional St. Mary ' s bonfire was a highlight of the entire year, as the frosh responded in large numbers to sleep- ily rout any would-be arsonists from Moraga. After the semester recess, a novel Mardi Gras talent show at Sei- fert Lounge brought an evening of relaxation, refresh- ments, clever entertainment, and freshman football films. The event attracted campus-wide comment, and additional activities were put on the calendar for the enterprising class members. With a colorful year behind them, the Class of ' 52 can eagerly look to their future, and Santa Clara ' s, with confidence in an earnest desire to excel in every field. DONALD F.

MAAS President On May 7, 1948, the students of the College of Law adopted a constitu- tion creating a Student Bar Association and elected its first officers. In less than one year this organization became one of the strongest and most active groups on the campus of the University of Santa Clara. One hundred and eighteen members, every student enrolled in the College of Law, were paid up members for the first full semester of activity. With the development of the most advanced program of activities un- dertaken by law students on the Pacific coast came national and statewide recognition. Hailed as the first association of law students west of the Mis- sissippi to be patterned after the State Bar Association, the organization was invited to join the National Conference on Legal Education. In Febru- ary of 1949 the group was invited by the American Bar Association to be- come a charter member in a proposed American Law Student Association. Representatives of the California State Bar Association announced that the SBA of the University of Santa Clara was being studied as a model for similar organizations to be sponsored throughout the state. The reason for this rapid development lay in ideas and leadership. Fol- lowing the cessation of hostilities in the recent world conflict came the re- turn of a host of veterans to resume their education. Postwar enrollment in the College of Law broke all records. The student body was larger, and it was different than in prewar days. Students were older, many were married, some had children. Gradually problems of readjustment to academic life were overcome. Soon students were feeling a necessity for satisfying a variety of new needs. Student social activities were rare. There was no organ for the expres- sion of student ideas; no organization to represent the group. Organized conununication between stu- dents and practicing attorneys and alumni was ab- sent. Opportunities for self expression, for the development of a community responsibility were lacking. And as ever, the great gap between the law graduate and the practicing attorney yawned as an obstacle to a well-rounded training. But to some students a golden opportunity shone brightly. An organization representing the entire student body could connnand access to the personal attention of members of the entire legal profession. This organization could narrow the gap between scholar and practitioner. A student bar association could bring alumni closer to the classrooms, could add to the growing recognition of a superior institution of learning, and could aid in opening doors through which graduates might pass to em- ployment. Beyond these possibilities lay more than oppor- tunity, for upon the members of the legal profes- sion, more than any other group in our society, lies the obligation of community leadership. The neces- sity of developing realization and acceptance of this responsibility was recognized as vital to a well bal- anced legal training. No means were more plainly adapted to this end than the organization of a strong student bar association. With these high objectives in mind, then, the Student Bar Association was founded. At first only a few students saw beyond the possibility of increased social activities to the larger goals. At the outset, student leaders called a general meeting to plan for a banquet to which a prominent speaker would be invited. A committee was elected for this purpose and Ronald Maas named chairman. Dur- ing this banquet Dean Owens encouraged the stu- dents to continue similar activities. In the meantime, the banquet committee had named itself the In- terim Committee, and immediately after the ban- quet announced the appointment of a sub commit- tee to draft a constit ution. Under the leadership of Garvin Hale, studies were made of student organiza- tions at various Bay Area law schools and a first draft was prepared. JOHN KLARICH Vice-President JOHN KENNEDY Treasurer JAMES McKENNA Senior Representative ' - ' j l 165 On the morning of May 7, 1948, a meeting of the students of the College of Law was called to order by Maas. James Wright outlined the purpose of the new organization and presented the proposed constitu- tion to the students. After minor changes this con- sitution was adopted and Wright was unanimously elected president. Ronald Maas was elected vice- president; Thomas Arata, treasurer, and Garvin Hale, secretary. With less than four weeks remaining before sum- mer vacation, the Board of Governors commenced planning for the fall semester, and negotiations with Dean Owens resulted in obtaining a Dead Week before final examinations. The semester ' s activities were closed with a student-faculty barbecue. The fall semester of 1948 found student commit- tees anxious to resume their part in the association. Dues were collected on the day of registration. After a few weeks, officers were elected to guide the new association. Ronald Maas, one of the original organizers, was elected president ; John Klarich, who had organized the highly successful fall outing, was named vice- president. John Kennedy became treasurer, and William McDonald, secretary. Neil McAllister and James McKenna were elected representatives from the third year class; William Clark from the second, and William Sullivan from the first. These men, comprising the Board of Governors, now undertook to plan the year ' s program, and to build an organi- zation to administer it. The bulk of pioneering in achieving the goals of the new association was given to the Liaison Com- mittee. Chairmaned by Garvin Hale, veteran pro- moter of the association, the members began work- ing on projects which would open up new oppor- tunities for students. In addition many special committees balanced out the program, which provided for social activi- ties, moot court proceedings, and special projects for student welfare. One committee was devoted exclusively to investigation. Another group made an exhaustive study of legal clinics throughout the na- tion in order to determine the feasibility of a legal clinic at Santa Clara. Finally, a third group gathered information on employment opportunities with the Federal, State and Municipal governments. From its inception, the Student Bar Association has been impressed with the possibilities afforded by an open discussion meeting between law students and practicing attorneys. With this in mind, an in- vitation was extended to County District Attorney Menard to attend an informal luncheon with a small group of students. At this luncheon, the students were able to ask many questions concerning criminal practice. Mr. Menard, because of his years of experi- ence, was able to bring to the discussion a wide variety of viewpoints and attitudes which instilled his listeners with added interest for the field of criminal law. For an hour and a half, student and practitioner were brought together. This particular experiment proved to be most successful, and soon after other luncheon engagements were planned. The group of students attending these luncheons vas kept small, always less than ten. Throughout this year, the honored guests were Judge John Foley, Jr., Judge Marsino Del Mutolo, Attorneys James Boccardo, Elmer Jensen and Al Ruffo. All these prominent men gave freely and gladly their valuable time for the advancement of legal education at Santa Clara. Having realized such great success with their luncheon program, the Student Bar decided to hold a series of evening lectures in the Moot Court of the Law Building. Here again the Association was most fortunate in being able to present Judge Raymond Peters, presiding judge of the First Appellate Dis- trict, District Court of Appeals, San Francisco ; Dr. Sidney Simpson, National Bar Association repre- sentative and noted lecturer, teacher and author; and Special Agent Kimball of the F.B.L office in San Francisco. These gentlemen were able to bring a variety of topics to the assembled students of the law school. The result, again, was favorable since they served in broadening the students ' academic knowledge. The Association ' s first annual banquet was held at Dinah ' s Shack. Because of the distinguished guest speaker and the small group of prominent local at- tornies and honored guests, the evening was well re- warding because of the opportunities for discussion. 166 ■ ' ' ■ r ' ' 69 -mi, 45 ' ' jl lentB i Tnier uae Judge Peters, now an old friend of SBA, introduced as the chief guest speaker Associate Justice Jesse Carter of the Supreme Court of California, who spoke on the Function of the Lawyer and the Legis- lature. Perhaps the most noteworthy of all student proj- ects was the job training program, which helped to place students in local law offices as observers. These students would take onto themselves the initial work of a young attorney. Such tasks include filing papers, looking up citations, sitting in on the taking of depositions, generally learning their way around the courthouse and familiarizing them- selves with office routine. This idea was successfid because of the Student Bar ' s cooperation with sev- eral local attorneys. As a result of the project, stu- dents were placed for a few hours every week in such distinguished offices as Cambell, Hays and Custer; Rankin, O ' Neil and Luckhardt; Callaghan and Giannini; Ruffo, Gallagher and Gomez. This project, of course, was undoubtedly the greatest contribution that the Student Bar has yet afforded the law students. With the assistance and opportunity given by the local attorneys, the proj- ect is intended to become a permanent part of the Student Bar activities. To date contacts have been made with many at- torneys, not only in the San Jose area, but through- out the state as well. Then, as the year progressed, and the number of contacts grew, it became evident that Santa Clara University has contributed more than her share to the successful and worthwhile men who comprise the California legal profession. Since alumni appeared in practically every county in the state, it was natural that the next step was to discuss the possibility of a Law School Alumni Banquet. Letters were dispatched and soon many enthusiastic replies were received. This banquet, which was held in the Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco, proved to be the largest and most impressive event of its kind in the history of the law school. Not only were the alumni gathered in reunion, but the graduating class of 1949 was also feted. Special awards were presented to students who excelled in scholarship, and who demonstrated outstanding qualities of community leadership. On a strictly social plane, the SBA has endeavored to give the hard-working future lawyer sufficient relaxation to enable him to keep a relatively bal- anced viewpoint. Beginning with a student lounge, on the second floor of the Law Building, the Associa- tion obtained plush chairs from the University, in- stalled a telephone booth, and coke, cigarette and candy vending machines. It is indeed difficult to estimate the value of these seemingly small gestures. The student lounge was not the only effort made to relieve the strain of study. Two annual barbecues were given, one each semester. The first served as a get-acquainted affair and was staged principally for incoming freshmen ; while the second was a very informal going-away party for the graduating class. A third out-door affair was given for the stu- dents, their wives, and guests. The annual dinner dance was held at the Officers ' Club at Moffet Field. This affair and the semiannual golf tournament and bridge party rounded out the year ' s social program. All these activities have been financed from the organization ' s own treasury. The work of students with no other motive than one of assistance to their fellow students is primarily responsible. The stu- dents, in the process, have become an asset to the LIniversity and to the community as well. To men- tion particular names within the organization as having been outstanding would be impossible. It would amount to naming nearly every student in the law school. Finally, the Student Bar Association looks ahead to the future with this end in view : to keep the law school of the University of Santa Clara not only one of the outstanding schools in the nation scholasti- cally, but also to make it one of the most active as well. 168 %7erM - ' luncheon u i h JuJpe Pel Mutolo fable M ' l ' l omeshe e sffond Bc i the [f riei Secner LAW G R il THOMAS J.

San Diego, California RALPH R. HARLAN, LL.B. Sacramento, California Having completed a prescribed course in undergraduate work, the student who enters the University ' s college of law must assume scholastic burdens considerably in excess of those borne during his undergraduate days as an English, Political Science, Philosophy or Economics major. For this reason, the en- trance re quirements are sufficiently rigid to insure the matriculation of those stvidents only whose records indicate that they are capable of surviving the rigorovis three-year course. The efficacious work of Dean Edwin J. Owens and the legal faculty relative to estab- lishing the college of law among the top- ranking institutions on the Pacific Coast was manifested when the results of the Califor- nia State Bar examinations of last year showed that the graduates of the college of law upheld the fine traditions of previous classes. The college of law is also a member of the Association of American Law Schools. It is the desire of the faculty and adminis- tration that by means of individual instruc- tion, which a small enrollment permits, as well as through the channels of the law school conferences and sponsorship of law students by practicing attorneys, the student at Santa Clara shall receive that degree and quality of mental discipline which will best qualify him to pursue his profession com- petently and efficiently. 170 D IJ A T E S ROBERT (;.

Among these were 17 lettermen from the previous season. This gioup was in turn joined by up and coming sophomores from last year ' s frosh squad and a number of junior college transfers. The main objective of the coaching staff in early September was to round the squad into tip-top physical condition. Sheldon Harden, line coach, assumed this responsibility and did a perfect job. In the backfield a change was made in the formation used, which necessitated a shift in personnel. Pavelko adopted a wing ' ' T ' formation using hard-hitting J. D. Phillips at the fullback slot with Vernon ' Pinky ' Bebemes moving to left half and taking over the passing chores.

DAVE MARTINEZ End CHUCK HAYNES Tackle WAIT KOIAR JOHN KUNKLE End Guard The Opener THE MUSTANGS traveled north to Stockton, California, to meet the Tigers of the College of the Pacific in the opening game of the grid season for both squads. The Bengals, headed by Little Ail- American and All-Pacific Coast quarterback Eddie LeBaron, fielded practically the same team that copped the conference crown and the Raisin Bowl last year. Shortly after the opening kick-off, the Mustangs drew first blood when LeBaron attempted to get the Tiger running game in high gear. The result was a Tiger fumble on the 17 yard line. The Mustangs could not capitalize on this break and shortly after, the Tigers scored on a pass from LeBaron to Rohde. The first half was a tight ball game with the Tigers sparkling and scoring twice for a 13-0 halftime lead. Coming out for the second half the Tigers were contented with the score for the major part of the third quarter. Making use of the platoon system late in the period the Tigers wore down a stout Mustang forward wall and punched over two quick tallies to take a 26-0 lead. At this time Pinky Bebernes unlimbered his passing arm and flipped a T.D. toss to Weber on the Pacific 20 where he out- distanced the Tiger safety to the goal line. The Tigers retaliated with a 60 yard drive for another CO. P. score. Taking the kick-off, the Mustangs drove up the field on Bebernes ' passes and j. D. Phillips ' running. Getting down into Tiger territory, ' Pinky ' un- corked three quick tosses with Walt Kolar taking the last one over for the final score of the game. CO. P. 33. Cal Poly 13. The Mustangs returned home to play host to a non-conference opponent. Cal Tech. The Techmen had little success in stoppin-r the Mustang ground and air attacks. Leading the Mustang attack was ' Pitching Pinky Bebernes who was both on the throwing and the receiving end of the ball. On the ground J. D. Phillips blasted his way through, over and around the hapless Techmen. On the defensive side of the ledger, the Mustang forward wall performed with precision. The Beavers were held to a mere 65 yards on the ground and 65 in the air.

PHILLIPS Fullback JOE GRIFFIN Guard HAL WINSIOW End THE MUSTANGS tried their luck for the second time in the season ' s conference competition to whip the Bulldogs of Fresno State college. Fresno the week before dropped a ball game to Santa Clara and the Mustangs took Cal Tech into camp. Lining up for the game the Mustangs were an underdog club with Fresno slated to win by seven points. The first quarter of play was even up, and it wasn ' t until the second quarter that Al Gomes broke the ice with a 69 yard punt return down the sidelines with some beautiful blocking by his squad mates. In the second period Charlie Weber recovered a wild pitchout by Bill Montgomery, Bull- dog quarterback, on the Fresno 47 yard line. After two incompleted passes, Gomes ripped up the center of the line for 23 yards. Bebernes then took over and tossed one to Weber who lateraled to Jespersen for a gain to the Fresno 14. It was the ' old faithful ' again as Bebernes flipped one to Weber in the end zone for the score as the half ended with the Mustangs leading 14-0. Coming out for the second half, it was the same story all over again as the Mustangs marched up and down the field. The Mustangs pushed over two more touchdowns in the last half for their total of 26 points for the evening. The following week found the Mustangs facing the 21 point favored San Jose State Spartans. The Spartans were loaded for bear, had no particular liking for the Mustangs and shot the works in the ball game from the sound of the opening whistle. Breaking over tackle for nine yards on the first play, the Spartans never stopped. It was just a case of being outplayed, outsmarted, and outgunned. Two sustained marches and a recovered fumble set up a 21-0 half time lead which the Spartans never lost. The Mustangs ' lone score came on a pass from Bebernes in the fourth period. The Spartans racked up 13 points in both the third and fourth quarters and the ball game ended 47-7 for the Spartans.

WITH TWO WEEKS rest after taking it on the chin from San Jose, the Mustangs entertained the Poets of Whittier College and played a ball game that kept the crowd roaring from the opening kickoff until the final gun. It was the old argument of air attack versus ground attack. Both attacks in this case were rather spotty with the Poets not being able to mix things up in the air and the Mustangs floundering on the ground. Bebernes connected with Weber for two T.D.s which was the limit of the Mustang scoring, although the team gained 251 yards in the air to the Poets ' o. On the ground it was different with the Poets running off a single wing and outgaining the Mustangs by 1 75 yards. The ball game was a good one to watch but the Mustangs should have run the Poets out of the park. The Poets on the other hand came up expecting to be beaten and returned to the southland with a few bruises and an unexpected victory. At this point of the season things began to take a topsy-turvy look. The next foe on the Mustangs ' list was San Francisco State which had soundly whipped Whittier 18-7. When the Polymen went North for the game things were at a low ebb. What was potentially a good sound ball club was in a strange state of mind. Such a mental attitude should happen more often because the Mustangs kicked the barn doors down at ' Frisco and ran wild. SFS which later in the season received a Bowl bid, was thrashed 40-0 by an outfit that just wouldn ' t quit. The Mustangs gained 503 yards in the air and on the ground against the Gators. Three touchdowns came via the aerial route and three by ground attack. The Mustangs never let up throughout the ball game and Pavelko cleared the bench in walking off with a 40-0 win.

FOOTBALL, 1948, at Cal Poly was one of the most topsy-turvy seasons in the history- of the college. With some first class material, the Mustangs roared out at the beginning and after playing some good ball faded in the stretch. While having only a fair season in percentages, the team had some highly skilled players. Charlie Weber, Poly wingman, was the season ' s high scorer, racking up 48 points while catch- ing 31 passes for a total of 710 yards gained. He ranked fifth in the nation among small col- leges and led the conference in the pass re- ceiving department. He also made honorable mention on All-Coast and Little All-Coast, and second team on All-Conference. Vernon ' Pinky ' Bebernes, Mustang passing ace was another choice for honors. Bebernes tossed T49 passes, completed 61 for 1097 yards and 17 touchdowns. He ranked tenth in the nation among small colleges for total offense, eighth for passing, and seventh in punting. Pinky led the conference in total offense, was a first selection on the AII-2C2A team, and a second on AP ' s Little All-Coast. J. D. Phillips, Mustang pile-driving fullback, rated honorable mention on Little All-Coast and a second string berth on AII-2C2A. To top-off the topsy-turvy season the Poly Mustangs have the doubtful distinction of be- ing SECOND IN THE NATION among small colleges for total passing offense. ' Jarrin ' J. D. Phillips rambles into the Fresno State secondary for a long gain on an off-tackle smash. Page Two Hundred Fourteen COMING TO THE CLOSE of the ' 48 season, the Mustangs went south to take on the underdog Gauchos of Santa Barbara in an Armistice day clash. The opening kick-off resulted in a Gaucho fumble and a Poly recovery. The first play from scrimmage was a Mustang score as the Bebernes arm located Stewart in the end zone. The game, a bitterly contested battle, was marred by fumbles, intercepted passes, and penalties as both teams played for keeps. The final stanza particularly was a wild and woolly affair with neither team letting down. The last play of the back-breaking fourth quarter featured Poly s Weber as he literally ran all over the field in an attempt to score. However, he ran out of gas and all but collaspsed on the Gaucho one yard stripe as the game ended 35-19 for the Gauchos. The Mustangs returned home with a three win and four loss record to face a big, rough ag- gregation from San Diego State. The Aztecs pre- sented a wide open running attack which netted them 13 points in the first half, and a pass by .• ztec quarterback Simcox in the third quarter which gave them a 21 point lead. In the final period the Mustang passing offensive got under- way and Bebernes found Weber and Jespersen in the end zone for scores. However the Aztec ruiming and passing combination gave the San Diego men a 28-14 victory which closed the Mustang ' 48 season.

The squad was rounded into first class condition for the opener with the Santa Barbara Junior Gauchos which the Colts took by a score of 30-0. This victory was followed in c]uick fashion by three more decisive wins. In the first four games the Colts racked up 92 points to a mere 18 for the op- position. Included amons; these victories was a 21-12 triumph over a favored San Jose State frosh team. At this point of the season the Colts ran out of gas and were hampered by injuries to several key ball players and wound up the season with a 4 win and a 3 loss record. The Colts had big guns at all positions and were a well-rounded football squad. Outstanding man on the .squad and captain was Jack Frost, a transfer from Loyola U. Close seconds to Frost w ere . l Cadena, guard ; Harold ShifTrar, bruising center ; and Joe McDonald and Bob Thomsen, a pair of fine ends. All of these plus a few more of the Colts are slated to see action in the ' big time with the Mustangs next fall. In the backficld the Colts have several fine ball players of tested ability. Doss Sims, Enard Johnson, Bob Lawson, and Stu Brown should produce some of the speed and talent that will be needed in the Mustang backfield next fall. RESULTS C.P.

Basketball ALTHOUGH THE 1949 season wasn ' t the most successful a Poly team has enjoyed from the won and lost standpoint, the 1949 Mustangs were undoubtedly one of the best cage teams to ever wear the green and gold colors. Playing hard and fast all the way, the Mustangs had to make up in determination what they lacked in material and experience. It looked like a great year for the Polymen when JC stars Ward Coburn, Jack McMurdie, and Doss Sims joined Coach Ed Jorgensen ' s roster at the beginning of the season. These newcomers coupled with returning lettermen Hank Moroski, Frank Ross, Jim Ellis, Bob Babich, Bob Coghlan, John Gerry, and Bud Guttierez promised to give the Poly backers a strong conference contender. The addition of Ken Ball and Paul Simpson from the Frosh also gave the Mustangs some much needed depth. Crowning point of the season came when Hank Moroski was elected to the All- 2C2A conference five for the third straight season. Thus the little drive-in artist from Brooklyn became the first player to ever inake the honored five for three years running. Hank also added the 2C2A scoring title to his growing list of laurels.

Showing the same fight and determina- tion which has led them in past seasons, the Mustangs were often outscored but never out- played. By winning two while losing eight, the Polymen ended the season with a .200 average in conference competition. Without a doubt the most talked about game of the season was won by the Jorgensen clan at the expense of the San Diego State Aztecs on the local high school courts. The Mustangs trailed by six points with just a little over a minute remain- ing in the game when the walls came tumbling down. Showing no small amount of determina- tion, the Poly cagers knotted the count at 42 all in the next 60 seconds. With only three seconds remaining the stage was set for guard Frank Ross who fired a desperation shot from half court which swished through the mesh without touching the rim and gave the Mustangs a 44-42 victory, thiir second and last conference win of the season.

High point of the year came when the green and gold clad cagers invaded the West- wood retreat of the UCLA Bruins. The Mustangs held the Bruins for the entire first half and led by a 25-24 margin at the intermission, but the second half found Coach John Wooden ' s race horse antics catching the Mustangs on the short end of a 68-48 final score. For the first time in the history of the Mustang institution, a Poly team was invited to the annual Redlands Invita- tional Tournament. The Mustangs reached the semi- finals by gaining wins over Occidental and Pasadena Nazarene, but lost to Redlands University in the next to final round when they were forced to play their second game in the day.

Starting out fast the Colts lost but two of their first eleven tilts, but after reaching their peak in the middle of the season, the Poly juniors slowed down after the halfway mark. Highlight of the season for the Colts was their impressive 61-57 win over Cal Poly at San Dimas. Also highly rated on their list of victories was their 45-40 win over the Santa Barbara frosh in their initial meeting of the year.

I -i- ferr;.- - - i mam ' Ctam WHEN SPRING rolls around at the Polytechnic the same reaction sets in that is prevalent all over the country. People go baseball happy. The reaction varies in different localities depending on the outlook for the season. At Poly this spring the Mustangs were loaded for bear and are at this writing going strong. The Spartans of San Jose State let it be known around conference circles that the Mustangs would be the team to beat this year. Coming from the Spartans that is most unusual. Last year the Mustangs finished near the top of the heap and with the entire crew returning things couldn ' t help but look good. Starting off the season, the Mustangs toured south meeting a number of good ball clubs among which were the Hollywood Stars of the PCL. The Stars were dumped 8-7 in a close ball game. Pepperdine which gen- erally fields a good club in any sport just couldn ' t stand the gafT and folded 18-1. The Mustangs dropped two games on the trip, one to Loyola and the other to Occi- dental and returned with a four-won and a two-lost rec- ord for the trip. Everybody wants to get into the act when it concerns the Santa Barbara Gauchos. Bobby Coghlan, Mustang short- stop, crosses for a counter while ' Peewee ' Fraser sweats out the catcher.

The series opened with Don Garman on the mound who was replaced by Russ Fireman Christensen in the late innings of the first game. Two days previous Russ stepped into a similar breach in the Stanford ball game and walked off with the season ' s first relief win. This seemed to become a habit for in addition to taking the opener from Santa Barbara, 7-6, he also walked off the diamond after the second game with an 8-7 victory. Credit for the Mustangs ' successful season to date should be given to the entire ball club, but a few players are outstanding. Ray Brocker, catcher, seems to have a sixth sense in judging batters.

Page Two Hundred Twenty-eight Baseball THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, boastins vnr of the finer teams in the PCC this spring, played host to the Mustangs and dropped the locals in a close 3-2 ball game. On this northern trip the Mustangs took four out of seven games, which included wins over Moffett Field, Hamilton Field, Camp Stoneman, and St. Mar ' s. The Stanford Indians took their return match 6-5 and San Quentin dropped the Mustangs 6-3. Returning home the Mustangs chased the Pcpperdinc Waves all over the home park and won 14-3. After Pcppcrdine the Polymcn trumped the El Toro Marines 10-4 and ran into trouble with the Santa Barbara Dodgers of the California professional league. The Mustangs, journeying to Fresno to take on the Bulldogs of Fresno State college, were in for a hot stay. The Bulldog wouldn ' t hold still long enough to get his teeth pulled and Fresno walked away with two out of three. The Bulldogs took the first two lo-ii and 8-14 while the Mustangs took the nightcap 5-4 behind the tight pitching of Ralph Ricci. With nine conference games yet to be played at this writ- ing, the Mustangs are very much in the middle of the race and the odds are that they will come out on top.

THE MUSTANG MITTMEN came up for the 1949 boxing season prepared to square off on a five card program that included a home and home meet with UCLA and a trip to Stanford. Filhng out the rest of the fistic program were San Francisco State and the CCAA Finals which were held on home grounds. With the preliminary workouts being held in the high school gym because of the remodeling underway on the local arena, the Mustangs prepared for the opening clash with UCLA. The Bruins with some fine talent took the Mustangs to task with a 51 2-1 2 win. The CCAA Finals were held in the Poly gym with the only other representative of the CCAA being San Jose State, last year ' s defending champs. The Mustangs came out of the matches with two conference crowns, Cornelius, light heavyweight, and Kister, middleweight, while dropping si.x other close bouts.

Wrestling THE 1948-9 WRESTLING season started off with a thud and ended up with a bang as Sheldon Harden ' s grapplers walked off with 42 wins and 3 draws against 9 losses up to the CCAA finals. During the regular season the Mustangs won all meets but one. The opener with UCLA was dropped 30-5. The Green and Gold matmen roared back and disposed of all comers by one-sided scores. Victories were registered over such teams as San Francisco State, Stanford, and the highly touted but not so muscle-bound Spartans of San Jose. In competition this year, the most outstanding man on the squad was Webber Lawson who ended the season with the SPAAU and Far Western 128 pound crowns. In the conference finals Lawson took second place while handicapped with an injured knee. Jack Darling, Mustang grid star, represented the heavy- weight division and walked off with the 191 crown in the Far Western and took a second in the Conference finals. In the 155 pound class, Jim Dowe took a second in the SPAAU and the CCAA 155 pound crown. Looking forward to the coming season, the squad, sparked by such men as Darling. Cadena, Lawson, and Dowe, will not lose any members by graduation and should rank as the top contender for Conference honors in all weights. ROW 1: Adams, Dowe, Tillotson, Lawson, Hutchinson.

UNDER THE TUTELAGE of Dick Anderson the Mustang mermen have enjoyed one of their best seasons of competition. In the heated rivalry with San Jose ' s Spartans found the Poly tank men winning the second of their home and home meets 39 - 36 after San Jose had taken the Mustangs by the same score a month earlier. A close one was dropped to Santa Clara, 38 2 - 35 ' 2- Also dropped was a contest with UCLA in which the Mustangs were considerably outclassed. The Poly mermen split a pair with Davis and carried away a match with San Francisco State ' s Gators. Roy Dang, Poly sprinter, took both the 50 and 100 yard freestyle events in this meet. John Aitken also turned in a creditable 349.9 points in the three meter diving event with the Gators. Page Two Hundred Forty Water Polo ROW 1: Brunner, Billingsly, Filipponi, J.

THE MUSTANGS FINISHED their sec- ond season of water polo with a fair rec- ord, but with high hopes for the next sea- son. With two years ' experience behind tJiem the Poly mermen should do well in the coming seasons. Especially helpful will be the fact that Jim Davis, captain, and Bob Frye, voted the most outstanding play- er, will be back for at least one more season of competition. Beaten by the Cal Aggies early in the sea- son, the Mustangs rallied at the local pool to down the Aggies in a return match to the tune of 14-7. This was the best exhibition of water polo put on for the home fans through the course of the season. Spectators at the November 3 and 4 tournament saw some exciting water polo at its best between some of the top teams on the coast. The Mustang broke even coming up with wins against Muir J. C. and Occidental college. Two matches were dropped, these to Fuller- ton J. C. and Loyola University. George of Cal Poly steals the boll from one of the water dogs of San Jose State college. Page Tzco Hiindnd Forty-one T ennis TENNIS ON THE Mustang sports program has shown steady improvement during the last three years under the guidance of Gene Smith, Poly mentor. Last year the team took third in the conference meet, and there were indica- tions that as good a record would be chalked up at the end of the 1949 season. Perhaps the sweetest pill taken during the season was the victory over Fresno State. The Mustangs dumped the Staters in a 9-0 match and looked forward to the conference finals in Santa Barbara May 6 and 7. Glancing at the coming year, things are bright. Smith has been building for the past three years and next year all team members are expected back. The squad should be the strongest ever to represent Poly. Bill Curtiss was a singles artist of the Poly net team and a top performer. Redden and Carlson were two of the Mustang ' s top performers. During matches these two paired up in doubles and gave the opposition plenty of trouble. Their best win in 1949 was over Cobbe and Wright of Santa Barbara, second best in the 2C2A during 1948. Page Two Hundred Forty-two A typical Poly i acketman is Ronald Johns, a three-year ten- nis veteran. Jensen Won, promising Poly freshman, picks up a hard drive.

When the game was first taken up in the old country it took the canny Scots a few years to take the kinks out of the link game and to pick up some of the fine points. From the look of the Mustang record to date Cal Poly is running into some of the same difficulties as they. Getting the ball down the fairway to the green with the minimum of effort and strokes seems to present the biggest problem for the locals. The explanation of this lies in the fact that Coach AVatts is working with a green team with the exception of one man. Practice makes perfect and Watts is looking forward to the coming year when he will field a team that has one year of competition behind it and at the same time the squad will be working twice as hard to make the grade for the Green and Gold. To date the Wattsmen have had home and home meets with Santa Barbara and San Francisco State. All four of these meets were dropped. Coming up May 6-7 is the CCAA finals to be held this year in Stockton, California, home of College of the Pacific. The Mustangs don ' t figure to pull any upset in any form or fashion but there are a couple of teams in the conference that will be in for a surprise. ?r fi - ROW I: Root, Hoff, lolt, Coach Watts.

Arizona, March 5 and 6, the Mustangs walked ofT with top honors in a field of seven western colleges. Paced by hard-riding Cotton Rosser the cowboys rode rough- shod over all entries with a total of 2 1 points. Colorado A M, their nearest competitor, came up second trailing the Mustangs In 8 points. Coming up for the final inter-collegiate event of the year held at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, April g, 10 and 1 1, the Mustangs sent a team of three ropers and three riders to com- pete against 14 colleges from Texas to the Pacific. Going into the last day the Poly riders and ropers were leading the field by a wide margin of 210 points. Cotton Rosser, Mustang rider, was top performer with an all round high for individual honors with 90 points. On the third and final day the bulls decided to run instead of buck, the broncs knew the Mustangs had them whipped and it all came out on the score board. The Mustangs were lucked out by Sull Ross State College of Alpine, Texas. The Texas college came out on top with a total of 345 points tollowed by Cal Poly with an even 300 points. Gymnastics THE MUSTANG gymnastic team under the tutoring of Coach James Jensen went to the 2C2A finals at San Diego State College with a reputation as one of the top contend- ers for the conference crown. The Mustangs took second place in the finals last year and this year were defending four firsts earned at the 1948 meet in San Diego. John Mayer tied his own conference record in the rope climb to take a first in 4.7 seconds. Eddie Strait success- fully defended his tumbling title to gain a first for Poly in a repeat performance. Paul Wild a newcomer to the gymnastics team this year, took a first on the side horse. From here on in the Spartans of San Jose State dominated the meet and took the conference gymnastic crown for all events. San Diego was runner-up, followed by Cal Poly and C.O.P. John Mayer, Mustang rope climber and defending 2C2A champion, does a climb in 4.7 seconds to tie his own record. ROW 1: Mayer, Strait, Boland, Wild.

We feel that we have become an integral part, not only in the manufacture of your past two yearbooks, but also in the school which it so capably depicts. As you know, to produce a well-planned, successful college annual requires the services of experienced and expert crafts- men, trained in every detail of the process of creating, planning layout and design, typesetting, printing and binding to work with a competent staff. We are satisfied that after twenty-six years of serving schools and colleges we have integrated all our know-how into the production of your yearbook. We appreciate the opportunity of again being chosen as your printer and binder and again extend to you, your staff and Cal-Poly ' s student body a grateful thank you and congratula- tions on a job-well-done. Very truly yours, MURRAY GEE, Inc. PJ JP Page Two Hundred Eighty-six Acknowledgments May I, 1949 FA ' ER ' YEAR, tho loniplction of Poly Royal means a rush by the El Rodeo stafi to meet final deadlines and get pictures to the engravers and copy to the printers. To do this has been a ten- month task for phAtographi-rs. di isi()ii editoi-s and reporters. These men have worked long and deserve a great deal of credit. First, I want to thank Boyd Haight, advisor, for the hard work and late hours spent in checking copy and captions on both dummies and page proofs, and for the constructive criticism that led the staff to do a job well done. His ability and versatility have been proven by his stepping into the position inexperienced in yearbook production, and doing a superlative job. Honors also go to Don Johnson, associate editor. Without his valuable experience in publications. El Rodeo would have struggled to meet deadlines. Don ' s consistent cheerfulness brought harmony in the staff during strained, late hours. I want to thank Dean Van Zant, photo editor, who took the responsibility of keeping straight the negatives and photo prints, and who worked as the middle man between tin- |jhotographers and division editors. Each division was handled by a special editor, whose job it was to make picture schedules, write co[)y and picture captions. Thanks go to Tony Solferino who edited Administration ; Oscar Betten- dorH who edited Classes with the aid of Loren K idd; Organizations Editor Guy Thomas and Walter Atwood who kept Clubs in line; Paul Tritenbach who edited Activities; Editor Ed Mattson and Ed Emmerson who handled I ormitories; and Joe Griffin, Sports editor. Helping Griffin was Russ Pyle, who wrote Basketball, and Dave Pitts, who handled Track, Water Polo, and Golf. I would also like to thank Deane Aboudara, who handled the layouts for the printer ' s and engraver ' s dununies and who kept track of the engraver ' s proofs in the master dummy, and my wdfe Jean who aided in picture cropping and moral support in allowing El Rodeo to come first. Without Merv Chamberlain, the yearbook could not have been published. As Business Manager, it was up to him to see that the book paid for itself. He also supervised advertising sales and edited the ad division. Working with Chamberlain were Bob Dooley, assistant business manager; Aron Abrahamsen and Dan Acosta, who did the dummying; Frank White and John Colombini who sold advertising; Bill Potter who handled dorm picture sales and John Preston who arranged pic- ture schedules; Elinor BarfT who typed these schedules; and Joe Gates, Ray Picard, Frank LaSalle. Howard Mitchell and Keith Southard, who provided transportation for advertising pictures. . great deal of credit goes to Mr. John Reibel ' s advanced letter writing class for help in writing ad copy. A story in pictures was the main theme of the ' 49 EI Rodeo. Capable photographers wen- on hand to cover all Poly events. Headed by Chief Photographer Ed Nitenson, and John Askins. Art Cram, John Klopp, Charles Chapman, Jack Anderson, Harry Jones, Fred Adams, Bob Applcton, Walter Miller, Jack Heller, Bob Williamson, Dick Ehrlich, Cas Szukalski, and Dick Pittman, the pictorial review was handled in top form. The credit for the celluloid covering of the year ' s events go to these men. Many thanks go to Warren Lewis, of the Angclus Engraving Company, and Pio Ventunlli of Murray and Gee, Inc., Printers and Publishers. Through the cooperation of Mr. Lewis all cuts were made and an artist provided who worked out the division pages. The job of getting th e book to Poly before graduation, after bcins; delayed by Poly Royal, was handled capably In Mr. Pio Vcnturelli and his assistant . ' I ' hrough till- ell ' orts nf tlusc people, the ' 49 El Rodeo was possible. I siiicerelv thank them. ART CANDY Editor, 1949 El Rodeo. Page Tivo Hundred Eighty-seven fiutcffaph
