PnCtUlSljOU, o word of Anglo-Saxon origin meaning the royal book of knowledge or literally the king's wise book ' was chosen as an appropri-ate nome for the University of Denver annual in 1899.

Many feel thot the present chancellor, Chester M. Alter, will be listed among the top few who have especially contributed to the intellectual and material growth of the University. Now completing his first year at the helm of DU, Chancellor Alter has already demonstrated the popularity of his open door policy and his intense interest in every aspect of university life from athletics to curriculum, from social activities to building expansion. While all the works and accomplishments of Chancellor Alter may never be set down in future Kynew sboks, DU itself will undoubtedly tell the story of his successful Chancellorship. 8 Chancellor and Mm Alter and their ton.

Or could it be that the crazy mited up kid is out lor frock instead oI bosketboll? BASKETBALL was a sore spot in Denver University sports talk during the 1953-54 season with the Pioneers taking nearly two-thirds of the season to get warmed up before winning o gome. During the first 18 games the Hilltoppcrs were able to win but two contests. The season started out with a big question mark hanging over the Hilltop, and os the season progressed and the cagcrs repeatedly dropped very close contests the question mark faded away and was replaced by a dark cloud of gloom and despair. Plaguing Coach Hoyt Browner was the lack of a sharp-shooting and consistent post man. With DU coming out on the short end of a five or ten point gome it was quite apparent to nearly everyone thot this weak spot would hove to undergo rapid repair or the team would spend the rest of the season in the cellar. Browner had four men listed on the roster to fill the center slot, but none seemed able to come thru with a good, consistent gome. Keith Patton and Tom Rhone were the mainstays for the quintet and not only accounted for the majority of the Pioneer's tallies, but also provided what little backboard control that could be mustered. Patton took scoring honors for the season with 321 and became the third top scorer in DU sports annals with a three-season total of 837 points. Rhone, who lost year edged out Patton for top honors, settled for a second place this year with 230. Glenn Buse missed the last eight games due to a severe foot injury, but accounted for 167 tallies. If laurels had been passed out for the most hustle and all-around good play, without a doubt it would have gone to Dick Hclzcr, who totaled 155 points. 248 THE TROUBLE MAKER lor oil opposition wos the consistent, occurate shooting oI Potton.

Defeated in pre-season worm up games by UCLA, Creighton, University of Wisconsin, Ohio and Kentucky Wesleyan, the DU squad was tired before the conference opener and defeat with BYU. Five more losses were suffered before the Hilltoppcrs broke loose and clobbered four upper division teams. Everyone took notice as DU went on the rampage against Utah State and Montana. Wyoming suffered its first home defeat in three years os the crimson ond gold cagers rode high on the crest of victory. They downed Regis again before taps again sounded for the marked cagers os the final six games all ended in defeat for the Hilltoppcrs and a last place berth. Ah, but there is next ycor ond the availability of the most promising freshman squad to dribble on the Hilltop hardwood in many seasons. Towering Dick Brott is expected to supply the Pioneer squad with the necessary height at the center slot. The 6'7 center was the mainstay for the frosh squad as he averaged 16 points per game. Paul Plath and Jerry Hulstrom are the other two outstanding Pioneerings who will be counted on to partiolly fill the vacant shoes of departing seniors. A word of warning is hereby given to all opponents for the 1954-55 season. 249 STEP 'N FETCH IT Pattern h blocked and Rhone b penned in at a Cow poke Ml t hit w or towards the boll.

They nerer did find it at the Rioneert blotted three pooh patt the haplett rititon. IT'S o toss-up as to how onyone would rate the 1953-54 hockey season since the Pioneers ended up this season nearly exactly the same os lost year. Fourth place wouldn't be considered too bad in the tough Midwest hockey league, but some of the experts had predicted that the puck chasers from Denver would give the top teams some hard, rough scraps and might possibly come out near the top when the final whistle blew. After clipping the Tigers from Colorado Springs in the first league contest, the band wagon was really loaded with championship-minded fans cheering for the Denver team. But then the strong North Dakota icers invaded the Hilltop ond left it in shambles as they shellacked the Pioneers in both contests. Denver had little difficulty in blasting the non-confcr-cncc teams and the scores seemed to indicate that DU would make mincemeat of the big names such as Michigan and Minnesota. No doubt the Pioneers would hove received an A for effort as they tackled the two powerhouses of the eost, but the final score is what goes down in the book, not the spirit and drive, and although Denver had on abundance of the psychological qualities they weren't able to cope with the scoring punch that Michigan and Minnesota packed in their sticks. DU suffered four defeats at the hands of these two teams. The final league game of the season was played on Hilltop ice with the CC Bcngals and as the result of the 252 I Pioneer victory DU went into o fourth place tic with the Tigers. British Columbia became the Pioneers' lost victim of the season and the Hilltoppcrs wound up the season with a 17-9 record. Jack Smith was crowned king of the DU scorers with 60 points. He had 21 goals and 39 assists for a new team record in both assists and total points. Joe Kilbey set a new record with 32 goals and seven hat tricks for the year. Barrie Middleton saw action in all 26 games, but spent only two minutes in the penalty box — but Bruce Dickson sat out 90 long minutes in the box and broke the league record of 86. Bill Abbott, who has another year of eligibility, raised his career totol to 122 points to top the previous high of 104 held by Peanuts O'Leary. As in basketball, the hockey team has some very promising freshmen joining its ranks for next year. And next year promises to be even better than this year in the fastest growing winter sport at the Hilltop. GftIM FACED GOALIE Bill Begg and Bill Abbott hold oil o pressing Minnesota attack.

The Colorado University slatmcn edged out the Pioneers in a cross country relay meet at the first of the year, but this only served to stimulate the DU slat riders in their quest for the national championship trophy — which is, at this very moment, sitting on top of the Hilltop. The eleven men under the expert guidance of Coach Willie Schocfflcr had little mercy on any team dfter the CU upset. They were championship bound! Coach Schaeffler, in his six short years in Pioncerland, hos built one of the toughest tcoms in the notion. He taught them everything he knew about skiing — and that's quite a bit — and did everything that a good coach could do to make a winning team. He must hove done it perfectly, because he had a perfect team. The Denver slatmen worked hord over the years to win the championship. Last year Washington State edged out Denver in the National Intercollegiate Championships ot Snow Basin, Utah. Denver had held the title for two years previously. ONE WING AND A PRAYER—Dole Thompson, who alto etcdled in the cron country, tokei oil on o Hying jump ot the Winter Pork cornirol. 256 ) THE GREATEST was a title bestowed upon Marvin Crawford by Mentor Willie $chaeffler after the team had captured the Notional Championship at Reno. Crawford found time to fly to Furope for the FIS meet, ski for DU and become o lather all in the tome month. f SOPHOMORE SLALOM SPECIALIST and downh.ll. too. was Gerry McClellan.

Crawford went to Europe for the FIS competition ond surprised everyone with his outstanding showing. Olson was an alternate jumper for the FIS and competed over all the nation in jumping events — his poorest showing was o second place. Coach Schaeffler didn't promise that his team would bring home the national championship, but ha assured the Hilltop that the slatmen would be one of the three top teams in the nation. But after the Aspen Invitational it appeared that the DU squad was well on its way to the title os the runnerup to Denver was 101.4 points behind. Other meets that the Hilltoppcrs completely dominated included the CU-Wyoming invitation, DU Winter Ski Carnival, Steamboat Springs Carnival and the Regional Championship meet at Beaver Volley, Utah. 257 THE THREE PHASES oi o trots.country rocc ore sho � here with Ole Gotoot (top) polled (oi the stort, ot he dipt in hit poles.

He took first place in nearly erery jumping etent he entered. 259 WRESTLING THE wrestling team from the Hilltop had a mediocre season finishing the season with a fifth place in the Skyline championships at Ft. Collins. During the season they managed a 2-4 record in team competition. Coach Lou Young will undoubtedly feel the loss of Allan Jackson, Charles Martinez, Gene Roberts and Lcs Stansbcry. Jackson fought his way to the semifinals of the championship matches, but was unseated and had to settle for a second place. Next year the Skyline title bout will take place at Utah university in Salt Lake City. Although four of Young's stellar performers will not return next season, he is expecting new matmen to fill the graduation gaps without too much difficulty. Wes Duchemin, an All-State from South high will be out for the coming season as will Jim Keating, an up-and-coming freshman. Keating took a third in the AAU meet which was an excellent showing for a freshman. Ike Trice will do some chores in the hcovy division. The big boy is an All-Stotc from the windy city of Chicago. Elwood Bcrge has completed his first year of wrestling and his performance has startled the DU mentor. Richard Conklin is also expected to be called upon to see some action. Holdovers include Gene Zeigler, Ted Nakazo, John Sulages and Carl Squires. 260 GYMNASTICS Balonted pertonoliliet THE University of Denver's gymnastic team failed to win a single meet during the 1954 season and finished third in the Rocky Mountain AAU championships behind Colorodo University ond Colorado State. The gym-nosts do not have a regular conference and therefore take on various teams in other conferences. This seoson it wos the Bears from Colorado State and the Rams from A M. Neither team let the Pioneers get oway with a win as four stroight defeats were recorded for the Hilltoppers. Lyle Kanekcbcrg managed to win a first place in the AAU meet when he topped all in the rope climb. He is expected to be one of the best parallel bar performers in the district next year. Senior Pete Byers will be leaving the Hilltop, but several incoming sophomores are expected to make next season a little more bright. Duane Stromer is singled out as one of the incoming sophomores who Coach Lou Young will depend upon to pull the team up into Hilltop prominence. Earl Heston, who also works out on the diving boards for the Skyline champion swimmers, is another glittering prospect for the coming year at the Hilltop. All in all Coach Young expects one of his best bolanced teams to give DU a big play in the Rocky Mountain gymnastic circles. Below, left to right Lyle Konedeberg, fori Heiton. Rutty Crook.

But it wasn't done minus stiff competition. For some unknown rcoson the Colorado Aggies were poison for the Pioneers of the A M pool and the Hilltoppcrs hod to meet the Fort Collins team twice under these circumstances. Once the Roms were able to tie the DU team, but the next encounter was disasterous for the Aggies. With the exception of the one tic with the Aggies the DU mermen were able to clip all comers on their way to the conference crown. The Skyline meet for the title was held at Brigham City, Utah, and again the Aggies from up state gave the Pioneers a rough go all the way, but in the final round the DU powerhouse broke loose and left the Rams swamped in the wake of the Denver victory. To mention only a few names would be unfair to the rest of the championship team since everyone contributed vitally to the success of Coach Tom Murphy's record-shattering tankers. However, the loss of senior aces Norm Bishop, Glenn McCartney, Barry Trader and Hal Zicr will moke the swimmers work a little harder to retain the crown next year. LOOK MA—NO HANDS! And record breaking Don Brown could bore token oil comen without ony hondt. He broke erery backstroke record os be led the teom to the Skyline title. WM TRACK LOOK MA. Pm a dire bomber. A Pioneer fokci a fifing leap over the high jump her Happy landing� ’ THE cinder oral was the scene of one of the largest track turnouts in the history of the Hilltop and Coach John Musick had plenty of tolcnt to draw upon when the time arose. Eleven freshmen donned the uniforms of the thinclads and it is only a matter of time before Musick will be able to tell just what part they will be able to ploy in the success of the team this year and in the seasons to come. The Pioneers entered the first two pre-season meets for the primary purpose of giving the team an opportunity to warm up against competition. Musick didn't expect to win or even pull any upsets for the main reason that the team was undermanned at the time. Four men from the winning ski team played an important port in the team once they took to the outdoor meets. Skiers Russell Crook, Dave Show, Dale Thompson and Paul Wogcman were not at the first two meets and this no doubt was a contributing factor in the DU showing. The only runners to return to the Hilltop oval were Fred Tcsonc and Larry Llewelyn. The field men that Musick depended upon included John McCarthy , discus; John Noriega, javelin; Walt Tomsic, shot and discus; Tom Maurics, high jump; and Blaine Robinson 263 SPIKES A-FIYING and a chit play at second thowt Rich Appoglise trying to boat the throw to iecond ut ker Ken Furman. THE diomond men under the new tutorship of Tom Murphy will undoubtedly be out to better lost year's mark of 3-8, but until a few games hove been tucked away under their belts and the greenness wears off, the team is likely to be riding on rocky ground. High scoring occurred in mony Pioneer games due to the lack of depth in pitching. But the scale was balanced with heavy timber which was evident in early contests. The Hilltop nine opened the season with a pair of losses to New Mexico, but returned to Denver and found their batting eye thru the courtesy of the Regis Rangers at City Park. Sharp boll playing was the rule with the Pioneers as they took the first contest 20 4. Fifteen stolen bases were run off by the hustling Denver squad. The second game was called at the end of seven with the Pioneers way out in front 25-11. The pitching chores rested with Bill Visscr, Dick Kenney, Rich Appuglisc and Bill Zinck. All are sophomores with the exception of Appuglise, who is a senior. Returning lettermen included Tom Carline, Joe DiPaolo and Andy Napolitane. Tom Rhone was slated to do some outfield work, but o class conflict came up early in the season and the team was without his services for the rest of the season. A lack of a full-time practice field put the crimp in the Pioneers' practice sessions. There was still no home field this year so the majority of the home games were ployed at City Park.

No team has yet been able to stop them. Two of last year's letter men departed by the graduation route, but Skid Pirtlc, Ron Moore and Tom Romolo were back to bolster the Skyline champs. Hylc Ottcn and Clarence Peltz, two outstanding club-swingers, were out to compete with a half dozen other candidates who were battling it out for positions on the six-man squad. Ron Moore, a senior from Grand Island, Nebroska, took medalist honors in the opening contest with New Mexico and tied with Pirtle and Peltz for the second day honors. The Skyline championship tourney wos held in Denver, May 28-29. 265 TENNIS LAST year the Pioneer tennis team ended the season in a second place tie with Brigham Young in the chom pionship playoffs. Coach Dick Tomlinson's squad copped every Skyline doubles meet with 10 consecutive wins. Clayton Bcnham and Irwin Hoffman contributed hcovily to the Pioneers' effort and their obscncc this year wos a great loss to the netfers. Alvic Willis, who shored the doubles title with Bcnham lost year, carried a big burden as the No. 1 man this post season. He also held the second place honor in the singles lost ycor. Other returning D holders were James Noonan, Jim Smith and Ed Young. These stellar performers were hard pressed for their varsity berths by newcomers Bill Oakes and Jack Young. Oakes is an all-city from East high and Young has an all-city rating from South high. The first motch of the season was at New Mciico and it didn't serve to bolster the DU morale as the Pioneers dropped both decisions by a 5-4 count. Returning to Denver the Hilltoppers took on local talent and trounced Colorado Mines at Golden 8 0. A change in scenery didn't help the Miners os Denver continued its winning way on the Hilltop courts 9-0. e J newcomer to woruty rank� tkii yco, 221 422 ° C V,f 6‘ fe fo success of (W I a e 8 8 8 8 .8 3 S- , 2 _2S_fc S -'Sz -S-Vo. 2 o' ■ o. « ! 2 s .•■ ■ 2 liJ.ipdJjJ.ffi JW ! c' S .cSiHgSS«tS J e- « S SJiifftill 1 I ililH I 5 2 SB . � :■ 5 - B - si $ Ri ;. ;. s c§ . :.£ - =3 s =:-U “8:-,L!-gs’:si« 1 III 11 j j 11|3'jj | j 1 j | i W p js 1 i 1 lie !1 ji il! 1 • oe a ta ■ o «s a a� A 4 to £ to ■ U UUU U U UUU UUUUUUUU a . - 3, I 3tf- 2R?-f .ft s,,,- ii!!j!iliiJ| | ill!!
