p ★ BEtLE AIR No one pretends that college life during this war is anything like what college life was before the world upheaval. The first concern of any college boy today is the defense of his country, and it has been that since December. 1941. But the inroads of defense demands were not immediately felt at the college level until some time after Pearl Harbor. The first change was the acceleration of the scholastic schedule, which enabled a youth to get a maximum amount of college training before being called to the colors. Just when the civilian student body began to dwindle away. Villanova was favored by being chosen to train V-12 candidates for the Navy and Marine Corps. The first quota came aboard in July. 1943. and since that time, the old Villa- nova life has been reduced to a minimum, though it still exists in token numbers. The chief interests of the student at the college now are an iniense curriculum, morning reveille and calisthenics, physical education, inspections, reviews, week-end liberty, and the Thursday night Merit list. Some of the activities remain unchanged; sports, both intramural and intercollegiate, dances. Iraierruiy ac- tivity, publications. It is from a desire of recording this mixture of the new and the old that this 1944 edition of the Belle Air is published.

As the College exists today, there is little left except the terrain to remind one of tho fact that it was originally a farm. A series of disasters, as well as the natural expansion due to growth in time, have combined to change the face of old Belle Air. What was the original home of the Rudolph family from whom the Augustinians acquired tho estate, burned down in 1914. Ono wing of old Alumni dates back to 1849. Of the old collego building orected in 1902 only the back wing of Mendel Hall remains, fire having consumed the rest in 1928. But fire and age have done nothing to keep Villanova from pressing always onward and upward. 7 I' t' Jkft UUlanova QampuA No more ideal location for an educational institution can be found than Villanova's. Six miles west of the city boundary of Philadelphia on the Lincoln highway, the College combines all the advantages of healthy country life, while having at hand the immediate advantages of city convenience. Acquired by the Augustinians in 1842, its 160 acres are now one of the show places of Philadelphia's famous Main Line long the epitome of landscaped beauty. None of the noise or hubbub or the consequent annoyances of a manufacturing world disturbs the industrious student as he prepares himself here to enter the world. Location is not the least factor in the success story of Villanova. She is by rail or bus just one half hour from the center of Philadelphia. The Pennsylvania Railroad's main line runs through her campus and the well known Paoli Local has a station stop on her grounds. From the 69th Street Terminal in the city, runs the Philadelphia and Western cars, every ten minutes; and they, too, stop on the campus. A bus line, routed over U. S. 30 (Lancaster Pike), affords half hour service to her door. In normal days, Villanova's full time students are almost one-half non-resident. The locality is named after the college, for the college was founded long before the Main Line was anything but a sparsely settled farm district. The college takes its name from its patron Saint, Thomas of Villanova, himself an Augustinian and a patron of learning. The original Villanova is a town in Spain, Villanueva, the college name being a Latinized form. 8 9n th S tou i $ OjuA founiny • • • Administration . . . Classrooms . . . Mess Hall . . .

The war has brought no unusual changes in the personnel of the Administration of the Faculty o( Villanova or in the Villanova teaching tradition. The loyalty of its staff- clerical and lay members—has been Villanova's proudest boast for years. That loyalty manifests itself in these war yoars more than even before. The stress of the speeded up courses has not lessened the effectiveness of instruction, the continued enthusiasm, or the intimate bond between student and teacher. If anything these characteristics have been intensified, and have brought teacher and student in a closer bond of unity toward a goal which is more than ever a common one. because it involves the safety of our motherland. I? Jhsi (pJwviwdcd Vory Reverend Mortimer A. Sullivan, O.S.A.. S.T.L.. cloctod to tho Provincialate a third time in Juno 1944. The Provincial of the Augustinian Province of Saint Thomas, as head of the legally corporate body of the Her- mits of Saint Augustine, is by his of- fice chairman of the Board of Trustees of the College. The Board is comprised of five priest members and two laymen. Father Mortimer Sullivan, the re- cently elected Provincial, is no stranger to his position as Chairman of the Board of Trustees. He served six years in that capacity as a former Provincial from 1932 to 1938. Previous to that—in 1926—he had been President of the College under the Provincialate of Father Vasey. Vory Rcvorond John T. Sheehan. O.S.A.. J.C D., Provincial and President of the Board of Trustees ex-officio from 1938 to 1944. Father John Sheehan preceded Father Sullivan as Provincial and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, holding that office from 1938 to 1944. It was under his guidance that the Centennial celebration was planned for far in advance and, as a result of the planning, so successfully carried out. Also under his chairmanship the college with Father Stanford in charge successfully weathered the onslaught of war-time turmoil. PRESIDENT FATHER McGUIRE A graduate of Villanova, Class of 1932, be- comes President of the College in 1944. As an in- structor, a student counsellor, and, for the last three years, as Dean of Men and Moderator of Athletics, Father McGuire has been part of Vil- lanova's administrative life only since 1939, when he returned from years of study in the Eternal City. Much respected by recent graduates and cur- rently enrolled students, well known in intercol- legiate athletic circles of the East, admired by Alumni who came to know him during his term as Vice-President of the College, his popularity is second only to his capability. Those who called him to Office are relying on that capability for the carrying forward of the Villanova standard ably borne by so many worthy predecessors. PRESIDENT FATHER STANFORD Long years of association with Villanova closed this June for Father Stanford. A graduate of the Class of 1918, he had been connected in a vital way with the work of the College since that time as instructor in engineering drawing, teacher of Religion, Chaplain, and, finally, as long-term President. The monument to his success remains around us in Villanova of today. Building upon the foun- dations laid by his brothers in religion who pre- ceded him, he led the College forward and up- ward until now when he can look back upon his achievements with a sense of satisfaction echoed in the applause of the educational world and of his fellow religious in the words: Well Done.

M.A. Vice-President Jh (Sice (phsidddjwi FATHER McKEE Villanova's new Vice-President is a man thoroughly con- versant with the ideals and methods of the College. Since 1931, he has been teacher and student counsellor. He is best known to recent students as the continually enthusiastic moderator of Intramural athletics, and of the weekly paper, The Villanovan. His promotion up the administrative ladder, we are sure, was regarded by him as a matter of sacrifice, for it involved his separating himself from these two beloved projects. However, the same complete sincerity which marked his devotion to these activities will likewise characterize his ad- ministration in his now position, and will surely bring him the same and greater success. FATHER DWYER Father Dwyer succeeds to the office of College Dean and Military Liaison Officer, with a broad background of European education and a long acquaintance with things Villanovan. At Villanova as a student from 1920 till 1928, through high school and college, he went abroad to Germany, where he obtained his doctorate at Wurzburg, and pursued further stud- ies at Berlin, until 1933. In Rome from '33 till '37 at the Mother house of all Augustinians, he returned to Villanova in 1937 and was assigned to the faculty of Philosophy, from which, as Associate Professor, he was appointed by the President to his present position. FATHER McQUADE The change-over of the College curricula from a peace- time to a war-time basis entailed many baffling problems. The solution of the problems was the task of Father McQuade. A tireless worker, he has devoted all his time for the last eighteen months to the job of unknotting the intricacies of schedule as- signments for student and teacher until, at his own request, he was released regretfully by the President, to devote all his time to his loved sociologic studies.

USNR In command of tho Naval V-12 Unit The second man to head Villanova's V-12 unit is Lieutenant Commander Edward J. Hannah, USNR, who came aboard last April. He has be- hind him a long and successful naval career, which began when he did his first hitch in 1917. He completed that service as a Chief Radioman, and returned to the University of California to complete his studies, which had been interrupted by the war. In 1921 he graduated from his Alma Mater as an Electrical Engineer. Love of the Navy prompted him to reenlist in the Reserve and in 1926 he was commissioned Ensign. He held his reserve commission until he was called to immediate and active duty in Sep- tember, 1940, and assigned as an instructor. From May of '42 until February, '43, he was Ex- ecutive Officer of the Harvard Communications School. From that post he was sent to sea for one year's duty before being assigned to Villa- nova. His tenure here has been marked by the same efficiency and capability which marked the ad- ministration of his predecessor. Consideration for the problems of the Apprentice Seamen students is his first concern; tact and courtesy characterize his maintenance of discipline; and cooperative sympathy has been the keynote of all his deal- ings with the college powers.

USMCR In command of Marine Detachment With this edition of the Belle Air, the V-12 program at Villanova will have completed its fourth semester since its inception on July 1st, 1943. In numbers at least it will have reached its peak, barring unforeseen eventualities in this protracted war. The purpose of the program is to afford the prospective officer that broad intellectual back- ground necessary for his future commission. Mathematics, English, History are stressed in the first two basic semesters; then if he has proven himself, the candidate may go on for further training in Engineering, Pre-medicine, Supply, or a general training for Deck. Practically all courses, except Naval Organization, are conducted by the Villanova faculty. Discipline is maintained by the Naval staff. Screening of candidates for fitness and aptitude is effected by joint committees of LIEUTENANT JAMES J. McCLINTOCK. USNR Executive Officer Navy and Faculty personnel. There are no courses in merely technical subjects having to do with seamanship, ordnance, gunnery; these come im- mediately after completion of the V-12 course, when the candidate is at Midshipman or pre- Midshipman school, just prior to his being com- missioned. That the Navy is satisfied with the success of the program stands proven by the very fact that it will continue as an integral source toward sup- plying a reservoir for future Navy and Marine Officers. Wisely begun by military authorities as a means of utilizing the extremely valuable assets of the colleges of the nation, and wisely entered into by the colleges as a means of doing their part and at the same time continuing full time operation, the V-12 stands almost unique among the phases of v ar effort as a peculiarly American and really democratic achievement.

JhQ fojUA M a Siuudij The one serious effect of the war on the Col- lege courses of study has been the necessity for rearrangement of the curriculum, so that the col- lege year formerly made up of two semesters spread from September to June could be com- pacted to make room for a third semester within the same twelve-month period. A student had to be enabled to complete a full college course in as small a period of time as possible. The rearrange- ment made it possible to finish eight full semes- ters in the space of three years. This is accomplished, not by shortening or eliminating courses of study, but by drastically reducing vacation periods to a very minimum. The accelerated program makes full use of the additional semester extending over the former Summer vacation. The scholastic year now em- braces three sixteen-week terms, which allows four weeks out of fifty-two for catching breath. Civilian students draft exempt are not asked to follow the course willy nilly, in fact, no student is obliged to do so unless he imposes the obliga- tion on himself as a means of getting a degree before being called to the colors. Naval students, however, must follow the three semester year as part of the V-12 policy, there being no time for rest against an unresting enemy. Course content has not been reduced, nor have the objectives of any course been changed. The rearrangement has been accomplished by offering the student fewer subjects to study in one semester and completing the subjects within that Tho timo-consuming element in tho life of tho Engineering student is work in tho laboratory. Tho graduato engineer is no mere mechanic more highly skilled. He is a theorist with much practical knowledge. Theory comes in class, practico in the lab. Grease-stained ovoralls aro as much a part of Engineering equipment as the highly mystifying textbook. Below: Tho uniform of tho day in tho hot summor time was the ‘T' shirt and trousers.

But what with vitamins, the sulfa drugs, and things like the new ponicillin. it's well worth the training. Microphotographic technique is something comparatively recont in the engineering field. It is employed a good bit in the work of the metallurgist and has contributed much to the study of Haws developing under strain. semester. Thus, where a boy would take Fresh- man Religion, let us say two hours a week for two semesters, he now takes the same for four hours a week one semester. The same holds for other subjects. Because the student body is now predomi- nantly Naval the whole program is integrated with the Navy College Training Program. This has the advantage of enabling any young stu- dent transferring from civilian life to the Navy or Marines to accomplish the change with no dis- ruption of educational life. The Navy Training Program in no way interferes with the regular work of the College, nor does it hamper the civil- ian student. Apprentice seamen and Marine privates are assigned to the College Unit to take advantage of the courses offered by the College. Certain dormi- tories have been assigned to Navy use as bar- racks; other dorms are reserved for civilian stu- dents. For the most part classes are held in com- mon, and all participate without any distinction in the extra-curricular activities peculiar to col- lege life. The Dining Room and Pie Shop are shared in common, too. All teaching is done as usual by the regularly employed college Faculty. In the Naval Program greatest stress is laid on Pre-Medical and Engineering as advanced studies, both of which are preceded by a two- semester Basic course, corresponding to any gen- eral Freshman course, and embracing English, Mathematics, History, Science. Upon completion of these two basic semesters, the student goes on to the higher and more specialized studies. Today it is meroly school . . . tomorrow it may be an airfield in India or a malarial control station in the iar Pacific. The daily Station Memo from the Exec, koeps the boys abreast of things. 3ha S tnineUuf Reverend John I. Anderson, O.S.A., Father McCabe. Prior of St Mary s. M.A.. Master of Professed Clerics. Home of the Augustinian Scholastics, Saint Mary's Hall is an essential part of Villanova. Within her walls, the college faculty of tomorrow receives its training. The Professed, so called because he professes to live according to the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, must be prepared for his future life and work as a parish Priest, missioner, or educator. Every day in his life must tend to fit him for this three-fold goal. Naturally, the very center of the seminarian's daily existence is prayer. The day which is begun with the Sacrifice of the Mass is sanctified by the chanting of the praises of God in the Divine Office, and is brought to a close in the prayerful Magnum Silentium. Besides fulfilling his spiritual exercises, the young seminarian must also prepare himself to teach others. He must, in his four years at Villa- nova, meet all the requirements for attaining a Bachelor of Arts degree. The core of this cur- riculum is Philosophy, wherein he learns to dis- cover what is true and to practice what is good. Essentially, the life of the Professed is a cheer- ful one. It is a well-balanced mixture of prayer. First row from loft to right: Sandmann. Murray. Cahir. McIntyre. Syvinski. Cleary, Hartman. Keller. Toscanni. Kuczynski, Verstynen, McGettigan. Simpson.

Seclusion from the hub-bub ol regular college life makes possible a greater concentration on books than is expectod ol the ordinary college man. study, and recreation. With the changing seasons, he plays baseball, tennis, and touch football, and goes skating or swimming. A college diploma does not have the same meaning for the seminarian as it has for the lay graduate. To the seminarian, it means that he will now be able to take up higher and more specialized studies, which will lead ultimately to Ordination. His formal education is far from being ended upon graduation. For upon the shoulders of the seminarian rests the future administration of his Alma Mater, and the more he excels in learning, so much the greater becomes the pres- tige of the institution which developed his intel- lectual capabilities. The picturos shown horo ol the Seminarians in somber black really do not givo the lull impression ol seminary life. The boys in Saint Mary's have their lighter mo- ments. as any Villanovan can tell when ho hears those ball games going or the piano tinkling behind the ivy covered towers ol Corr Hall. 35 JPl£ lAndoAcloAAeA COMPANY A SECOND PLATOON COMPANY A FIRST PLATOON First Row: Piersol, Noll, Koamey.

FRESHMEN (JULY 1944) 1944 GRADUATES The men pictured on tho following pages are of the CLASS OF 1S44 only in the sonse that they all graduated in that year. In the pro-war senso of the phrase, there was no such thing as tho Class of '44. Tho necessities of national servico precluded the possibility of tho old collogo life. Mon who finished in February and in June havo by this time seon battle on land and sea; and thoso who wind up their collegiate caroors in October will bo comrades in arms with thorn soon. Villanova is extremely proud of all her 2000 sons who aro serving our Nation, and she presents those three groups as worthy to carry on in tho high tradition established by tho Alumni who have gone before them. 49 J'obhJLaAi} (19M) hadwodsiA JOHN LOUIS ALLEN.

(V-12 Studont transferred from State College of Washington) 71 fommswxjLmswi In keeping with the acceleration of the scho- lastic program, a new program of Cemmencement had to be introduced at Villanova. Commence- ments are now held at the end of every semester; in October; in February; in June. The ceremony of graduation itself is reduced to a single event which combines degree confer- ring with the essential baccalaureate Mass, fol- lowed by the customary luncheon to the parents of the graduates in the dining room. The simplicity and comparative brevity of the event emphasizes the seriousness of war-time commencement, which in these days signalizes the beginning of the brand new phase of active Military Service for nine out of ten of the gradu- ates. OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM Extra-curricular life at Villanova did not com© to an end with tho advent oi ‘war. Villanova is still in essence a civilian school lending its lull time strength and facilities to the Naval branch ol the Armed Forces. It is the desire of the Navy authorities that college lile continue as normally as can bo expected undor the circumstances; and that especially, the men whom sho entrusts to Villanova be given all tho advantages which would be available to the ordinary collogo student. Not the least ol the benefits ol life ut collogo is the opportunity to develop leadership and initiative from participation in extra curricular affairs. For this reason Villanova has kept alive during the V-12 period as many of her non-curricular activities as sho possibly can. SANCTUARY SOCIETY First Row: DoLago. Vorsagi, McQuade. Fr.

It conflicts with no other form of service which a man owes either to himself, his fellow-man, or to his country. To teach young men the relation of these duties to each other is Villanova's first purpose and all- inclusive ideal. The ideal finds a special expression in the ac- tivities of the Sanctuary Society and the Choir Group, membership in which brings the ordinary college man—serviceman or civilian—into the closest possible relationship with Divine things either immediately assisting the priest at the altar, or singing at liturgical functions. Membership in each organization is entirely voluntary, and activity is guided by a moderator: Father Klekotka having the Sanctuary Society; Father Burke, the Choir. Both Moderators have done an untiring job keeping alive the spirit of devotion to task and stimulating continued inter- est on the part of the boys. Attendance this year has been unusually faithful as the atmosphere of war turns the minds of the boys ever more and more to the affairs of the soul. The sacrifice of early rising on the part of Mass servers in the morning is a heartening feature of Villanova's spiritual life. CHOIR First Row: Fr. Burko, DoLago, Orlando. Vorsagi.

THE VILLANOVAN When the campus retooled for war a cut in the size of the college's weekly newspaper be- came necessary, but wartime conditions have liot affected the enthusiasm with 'which the VILLA- NOVAN is received throughout the campus each Tuesday afternoon. Its thorough coverage of gen- eral college news and sports, together with its brilliant treatment of feature material and cur- rent editorial topics, makes the publication a weekly must” for every student and fatuity member. Jh UULanovan A unique event in the 1943-44 history of the VILLANOVAN was the appointment of what was practically an all-engineering staff, with a sopho- more engineer as editor-in-chief. Although for- merly run by arts and business upperclassmen who had less severe curricula and more time to devote to such extra-curricular activity, the publi- cation suffered little in the transition. The engi- neers proved themselves capable of handling verbs and adjectives as well as sines and cosines, and typewriters as well as slide rules. The metamorphosis became complete when Rev. John A. Klekotka, O.S.A., a member of the engineering department staff, took over the posi- tion of moderator. He replaced Rev. Edward B. McKee, O.S.A., faculty supervisor for the past 12 years, who was elected to the vice presidency of the college and found himself unable to continue in his former capacity. The entire task of publishing the VILLA- NOVAN, except for the mechanical details of printing, is performed by the student members of the staff. On Monday of each week writers are assigned by the editors to canvass all possible sources of news for facts which might be of in- terest to the campus or alumni public. Before Thursday afternoon, the men who have been suc- cessful in obtaining usable information are re- quired to submit typed copies of their stories to the editors for approval. On Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons, the editorial staff gathers in Room 119 Mendel for the arduous jobs of copy- reading, headline-writing, and format design. Then on Monday afternoons, the editor-in-chief and sports editor go to the shop of a nearby printing company to supervise the mechanical integration of the myriad lead type slugs into the final layout as destined for the presses. By Tuesday afternoon everybody on the cam- pus has digested its contents. The labors of a competent circulation staff assure the quick de- livery of the VILLANQVAN to service camps and homes of alumni throughout the nation. ___ ml «aamnaiuKKZiSM mb STAFF Thomas P.

Action ytW in 3W ltftU STAFF Jh fcnqiMSiJi The Engineer is the publication which is put out by the students under the greatest difficulties. Engineers carry the toughest schedule of all men at the College, it is well known, and as a result they have the least time for extra-curricular work. Nevertheless, the Villanova Engineer still carries on even in this hectic wartime acceleration. That it does so is a great tribute to the interest and zeal of its staff and its moderator. One thing has helped its life: the increased curiosity about engineering things which has arisen out of this war. Problems in airplane de- Editor-in-Chief ......F. J.

But the exact purpose of the Villanova Engi- neer is just this: to give the undergraduate a chance to inform himself and other students of all the latest engineering problems and their ac- tual or possible solutions.

GRUSS This year's Belle Air was produced under dif- ficulties, chiefly arising from a curtailed budget which decreases with the smaller enrollment, and from the lack of available time which results from the intense, accelerated academic program. But the Moderators, acceding to the desire of the administration, deemed it better that the activity be not allowed to die under the pressure of war. Willing hands and heads were found among the students, especially those of John Fitzgibbons, Hector Martinez, Dick Somers and Frank Pema, all of whom had acquired experience in the edit- ing of the well received Centenial Edition. Many others also were found who, under the guidance of these three, were willing to add their not in- considerable bit toward getting out this edition. The editors feel that nothing has suffered be- Jhsi (Bsdk tiih cause of curtailment, except the quantity of ma- terial. College activity since the war began, has become essentially single purposed, and campus activity has on that account been greatly limited. But there has been no lessening among the staff of enthusiasm, ability, or cooperation. Publication date has been moved to October so that all the graduates for the year 1944, occur- ring as they do in three sections, February, June and October, could be included. All the incoming Freshmen, civilian and Naval, likewise are in- cluded at least in group shots. War time accelera- tion now demands three registration times instead of the customary one, in September, so that the college photographer was kept awfully busy try- ing to keep pace with the comings and goings of an ever-changing student body.

At no expense to the boys except that incidental to the bringing of a girl friend, a full night's show was provided, with high quality jive, dancing, specialties, and the added attraction of watching and being part of a national broadcast. But apart from this, it must be admitted that the old College Dances as former Villanovans knew them, are regretfully a war casualty. Dances were held throughout the year, all of them informal, sponsored by the Student Council, and the two active Fraternities, but war time circumstances, chiefly arising out of curtailed time for recrea- tion and the amount of competition offered by service organizations in town, kept this one very popular form of campus diversion at a lukewarm pitch. There was, however, no lack of hard work or enthusiasm on the part of the sponsoring com- mittees, nor can it be said that any affair was unsuccessful either from a social or financial standpoint. Beginning with the Student Council's Fall Dance on October 2nd, with Bobby Sherwood's music, there followed the Phi Kappa Pi's Harvest Hop, November 27th. Then came the Student Council's February Graduation Dance just prior to the winter commencement. On May 13th Delta Pi Epsilon gave their Spring Dance at which there was continuous music furnished by two bands. Finally on June 10th, Phi Kappa Pi offered again a graduation hop to Leo Zollo's music. All these affairs afforded sweet memories to the attendees. Not to be overlooked in the recount of the social life of the year, are the two performances of George Noakes' Yankee Doodle Club of Jenkin- town, an all-girl organization devoted, nicely, to brightening by song and dance, the otherwise drab lives of servicemen—not excluding the V-12ers.

Something new has beon added to Villanova life . . . drill, parade, and roview would bo very dull without those hard working marchers. JhQ CD hum and (Bugla The Drum and Bugle Corp is a new, featured activity at Villanova which ov es its origin to the V-12 program. It v as inaugurated at the request of Commander Milner to enliven the Saturday morning drill period and the reviews which fol- low inspections. A full band was felt to be impractical because of the number it would require to produce the desired effect. A drum and bugle corp v as de- cided upon as the best means of providing ade- quate martial music v ith a minimum of person- nel. Given in charge of Captain Morgan, it proved an immediate success, adding color and life to drills and parades. A good deal of the success has been due to the enthusiastic efforts of the three drum majors who have in turn headed the organization since its beginning: John Scola, George Beale and Don Rugen. Membership in the company is gained after tryout, and is limited to servicemen, who serve as a special detail which drills and marches apart from the regular battalion. Approximately thirty-two men comprise .the unit, which practices ‘on Friday nights before performing on Saturday. It has made no public appearances thus far, not even at the football games, though veteran members of the unit recall a lively private ap- pearance, greatly appreciated by performers and admirers, at a Bond Rally in the Gym of Rose- mont College one evening in the past winter. 82 Qnl teaU qicrtG Sj dA Jootball In retrospect, we open the curtain on the pre- 1943 season to view a picture much changed from that of the previous years. Gone from his familiar position as coach of the Wildcats is Clip- per Smith, now Captain Maurice Smith, USMCR. In his place we find a famous son of Villanova's football, an alumnus of great former ability and present knowledge, Iordan Olivar. The material looked good and played even better as the season progressed. MUHLENBERG 35-12 A few short weeks of hard practice, a lot of spirit, and everyone anxious to see what the Wild- cat team looked like, all showed up at the season opener as the Main Liners with a series of daz- zling running plays, crushed a highly touted Mule team that held Yale scoreless the week before, into the dirt, 35-12. A pass from AI Postus to former Duquesne end, Val Jansante, put the first scoring number on the Cat board. Just a few plays later found the Villanova players asking for a higher score. A kick blocked by Billy Sullivan and Jim Harkins set up a touchdown scoot through right tackle for the score. The second quarter found the Mules scoring twice but A1 Kasulin. former Miami U., galloped 57 yards to the two and then bucked over to quash a Mule rally. The second half found Pe- zelski and Lopez each adding a tally to jack up the score to its final total. ARMY 0-27 For almost the entire first half, an outweighed but not outplayed Villanova line threw back po- tent Army time and again, allowing no score. Battered and weary towards the end of the half, they slipped as an alert Cadet, Glenn Davis, cap- italized on a Pezelski fumble, galloping to the four. After three unsuccessful line thrusts, a lat- eral to Davis sent over the initial score. The point after touchdown was missed. Aroused, the Wildcats marched 50 yards into Army territory, only to have the whistle blow and end their threat. Weakened by the first half and with almost all the men on the squad injured, the Villanovans slowly succumbed to the many bril- liant substitutes, of whom there seemed to bo no end. Maxon and Troxoll combined to cover 66 yards and a touchdown. Shortly thereafter, Davis ran a punt back 32 yards, where Lombardo pitched one down the middle to Anderson for the third score and a 19 0 lead. The everpresent and brilliant Davis inter- cepted a Zamlynski pass and came to the fifteen, where Lombardo to Preston and a thrust by Daniel totaled the scoring at 17-0. Even in defeat the Cats were great. SAMPSON N. T. S. 7-17 It was Andy Stopper, former Villanova great, who led his team of former college and profes- sional stars to a hard fought win over the 'Cats.

Towards the close of the first quarter after the Villanova line had twice held them for four downs on their goal line, Principe, of Fordham and New York Giants' fame, crushed through from the one for the opening and only score of the first half. Following a beautiful 69-yard kick by Kasulin, the Wildcats roared back to the Sampson 35 on a runback by Koproski. Five more were added by Kasulin, but then an attempted pass by Postus was smothered eighteen yards back, effectually strangling the rally. A second half found Stopper starting off fast by heaving a very long pass to Tarantte for the second tally of the game. Back came the Blue and White with Postus hurling first to Koproski and then to Pezelski to haul them to the Sampson four. A quick one to Anderson in the end zone and a conversion by Konopka formed the only 'Cat points that day. BUCKNELL 12-8 Bucknell proved to be the morale factor in the schedule, as they fell in one of the closest games of the season, 12-8, to put the 'Cats back in the win column. In the first quarter, it was A1 Kasulin who bril- liantly broke through tackle and galloped 65 yards for the opening score. The following threats were useless and it was the Bison who scored next on the flying feet of Hubka as he ran and bulled his way to a tally. The second half was a repetition of the first, but after spotting Bucknell two points on a safety, the Blue and White made their final successful bid for victory as Postus heaved the winning pass to Billy Sullivan for the six points and game.

S. 27-14 A valiant but less experienced Lakehurst Na- val Air Station team was the next victim of the powerful Wildcats, 27-14. This game marked the last Villanova game for a great number of the players. Playing for their last time were Zig Zamlynski, Joe Pezelski, Billy Sullivan, Val Jansante, Jim Harkins and Bill Nealon. All were transferred elsewhere by orders from the Navy Department. Star of the game in this, his final exhibition, was Ziz Zamlynski, as he twice crossed the payoff stripe on spinner plays. The Blimps staged a token attack into Cat territory late in the game against a substitute team and, led by Marine paratrooper Earle Hassel. twice went across to bring the final tally to 27-14.

HOLY CROSS 7-12 New on the Wildcats' schedule and victorious in their meeting were the Crusaders of Holy Cross as ihey unkindly invited the Main Liners to Worcester to take a 12-7 beating. Just as the score indicates, it was a close game and could, some say should, have been a 'Cat win. It was the captain-elect of Holy Cross, George Titus, v ho administered the crowning blow when, on the first play after a kickoff in the third, he swept around end and away for 69 yards to score. This one run was the only offensive flash of the Purple all day, but it sufficed to take the game. Late in the fourth period. Postus ran the length of the field behind deadly blocking to score, only Lowor, an unidentified carrier submarines himself just enough to get across the line despito rugged opposition from dofonders. to have it nullified by a clipping penalty on one of his teammates. Brought back to the one, the final Wildcat rally was squelched. TEMPLE 34-7 Captain AI Postus became the first player, 'Cat or Owl, to ever score in three games of this bitter rivalry. Twice in victory and once in defeat did this stellar player cross the Templar payoff stripe. On the basis of this and his previous sea- son play did he rate an All Eastern berth. The team hammered out thirty-four points to top the old high of thirty-three. Highlights of the game show that in the final period Postus rambled 26 yards for his record and the opening score, quickly followed by Ka- sulin, who not only punched across a touchdown in this half but also got off a beautiful punt which went for seventy-nine yards. In the second, after Postus had gone across for another one, the Owls 86 Joe Pczolski on a quick breakaway to tho flank getting ready to repel converging de- fendere who ewarm to meet him.

The second half saw the Main Liners push across two more against a weakening Temple team, with the bright spot of this half being a twenty-two yard conversion after touchdown by Big John Siano. For this day, Siano had a per- fect record of four conversions, as the only miss was made by Konopka early in the game. So came to an end a highly laudable season for the new coach, Jordan Olivar, and for his un- known quantity team which certainly proved themselves beyond all expectations to be a most potent and well known quantity, GOOD. (BaAk JtbaU The 1942-44 Wildcats presented a heteroge- nous group of Navy, Marine, and civilian stu- dents with names unfamiliar to their loyal fol- lowers. Frank Frascella, Don Osterman, and AI Pos- tus formed the nucleus of the squad. Bill Feeney, Phil Jakeway, Bob Forrest, and Jack Ramsey were transplanted from other courts to bring high hopes to coach and students that last year's record would be surpassed.

Playing without the services of Frank Frascella, Jack Ramsey, and Don Osterman, a determined couple of boys won a 43-32 victory from the Navy Yard Marine Unit. In a mock football game, Princeton's closing rush left them on the short end of a 42-40 score as the game ended in a scramble of players un- der the Tiger basket. Muhlenberg overcame an early deficit and broke the flood gates in the last quarter to hand the 'Cats their first defeat, 53-38. Sampson Naval Training Station repeated the dose by pulling away from an outmanned home team, also in the final period, to gain a 51-36 victory. Teamplay came into its own as the F. and M. Diplomats were frozen out, 41-36, at Lancaster and walloped. 48-29, on the local court. Followers of the Bucknell Bisons were treated to the best game of the season as the Severancemen, led by Frascella and Feeney, overcame a 19-point defi- cit and won in two extra periods, 43-42. Frascel- la's steal and length-of-the-floor dribble for a lay- up tied the score and his foul in the second extra five won the game.

Rider was the second Jersey opponent for the lo- cals and a measure of revenge was gained with a 48-41 triumph. The Little Quakers gained sweet revenge by nipping the Wildcats, 41-38, at the Swarthmore field house. Meeting for the second time, Buck- nell proceeded to even its score by taking home a neat 49-39 victory. Cheered on by former stu- dents transferred here under the V-12 program, Loyola's improved freshmen team gave the locals a battle before succumbing, 55-50, in their effort to gain their first victory over Villanova in the ten game series. Opening the second half with a rush, the lo- cals closed a 10 point Middie lead into a 2 point advantage only to become the victim of a Navy counter-attack that resulted in a 35 27 victory for the Annapolis men. Sampson took up where the “future Admirals left off and administered a 56- 44 drubbing, much to the delight of the trainees who witnessed the game. Resorting to a weave, to counteract the lack of scoring punch, the locals were unable to regain the victory path, and Aberdeen Proving Ground walked off the court with a 31-25 victory. Dale Hall's 23 points topped the entire 'Cats produc- tion as Army's high scoring Cadets won a 34-22 verdict. With the exception of Navy, this was the second lowest margin of victory massed by the West Pointers. Muhlenberg won its second game from the lo- cals by a 46-32 score, despite Frascella's 20 points. Norfolk Naval Training Station put a fit- ting climcx to the worst season in Villanova his- tory by throwing in everything but the water- bucket in administering a 69-19 defeat in a game that started slowly and ended like a cyclone. The Tars hit the hoop for 51 points in the last half, with everything thrown going in for a basket.

This was the first time in the 101 years of the college's existence that it spon- sored a varsity club during the summer months. A1 Severance, basketball mentor, and Father Edward McCarthy were chosen to coach the team in place of George Doc Jacobs, who had been coaching since 1927. A fifteen game schedule was compiled and the first call for practice was called on March 16th. Fifty-four candidates responded, including six holdovers and many transfers from other colleges, via the V-12. The scheduled opener. Navy, was washed out and the season was inaugurated at West Point, where our hosts took the first ball game, 3-1. The Penn State game was cancelled and the Marines journeyed here from Philadelphia and journeyed back to that same city brooding over a 12-3 de- feat. Catching a taste of victory, the Wildcats paid a visit to Lancaster and trounced F. and M. by the score of 11-4. Next, Muhlenberg came here and the powerful Blue and White mowed them down, 11 -3, for the third straight victory. How- ever, three straight wasn't enough, as Bucknell made No. 4 as they took the count, 5-2. It was too good to last, though, for Swarthmore soon put an end to the streak, 10-3, followed by another loss, 3-1, to Ursinus. Villanova finally retaliated and took F. and M. in a return game, 4-3. Another loss, this time to Bucknell, 4-0, gave the team a .500 average with one game left to go. Penn was rained out, leaving only nine games played on the original fifteen game schedule. In the second edition many changes were ef- fected on both the lineup and schedule. Quite a few members of the team were transferred and many of the colleges didn't put out a team. Penn played here in the initial contest on July 12, defeating Villanova, 4-1. Traveling to nearby Swarthmore, the best the Cats could do was to tie them, 10-10. Meeting Penn on their home field, the luckless club finally annexed their first game. 9-8, followed by a humiliating 13-2 defeat from the Phila. Coast Guard. The Navy game at Annapolis highlighted the schedule, in which the Main Liners fell short, 8-7. Engaging a brand new team, they tied a strong Valley Forge nine in a 1-1 contest at home.

The star of the meet was George Guida, a re- cent graduate and star of last year's team and holder of the Junior National 220-meter race. George, now running for Shanahan C. C., took the 100-yd. dash in 10.1 sec. and also copped the 220 in 22.2 sec. to make a clean sweep of the sprints. Running for Villanova, Bob Reagan took third place in the mile, Dutch McCarthy came in fifth in the 440-yard event, while Ed Fitzgerald and Johnny Foreman came in fourth and fifth, re- spectively, in the half-mile grind. The next track venture was the Middle At- lantic A. A. U. meet held at Drexel Tech Field and sponsored by the Shanahan C. C. The team consisted of Ed Fitzgerald, John Foreman and Bob Reagan, who, together, won a sufficient number of events to garner an amazing third.

Ed Fitzgerald and Burton Cox placed a second and third, respec- tively, in the 440-yard dash. Ed also copped third in the 880, while Burt took second in the broad- jump. Bernie Borschke also attended, running in the 880-yard relay. Entering the Indoor Season, the Mile Relay Team consisting of Bob Reagan, Burton Cox, Harry Schmitt, and Ed Fitzgerald won their heat of the Millrose Games in the slow time of 3.33:2, yet leading Rhode Island by a good 30 yards. However, N. Y. U. took the event with a 3.24:5. The track team finished this season with a third in the quadrangular meet at West Point and a second in the N. Y. A. C. meet. A foul on Phil Golden lost the race in the N. A. A. U. event, but a fast 3.24:2 garnered second place in the IC-4A meet. VARSITY TRACK (INDOORS) First Row: Ensign Maniaci. Hunter, Rideout.

With the advent of the Navy V-12 unit on the campus came the necessity of providing some means of athletic recreation for the members. Fortunately, that means was already at hand in a long, well-organized intramural league under the direction of Father McKee. Immediately after the preliminaries of induction into the program were over, the summer softball schedule was drawn up and competition began. The first games were played on Tuesday eve- ning, July 13th, 1943, with six teams competing on the usual inter-hall system. There were two Marine outfits, three Navy teams from Mendel, Fedigan and Alumni, and a squad gathered from the civilians in the smaller dorms. From the beginning the Marines A team domi- nated the circuit and finished their schedule un- defeated for the first time in our Intramural his- tory. The team was composed of what later turned out to be the varsity football team: Postus, Bill Nealon, Kasulin, Dzitko, Zamlinski, Burns, Feeney, Konopka, Lopez, Koproski, Cardner. Coming in on the heels of these Commandos were the civilian residents v ith a record of 15 and 8. Then came the Mendel club, which by a late season spurt jumped from last place to third. In the play-off between all star teams picked by the captains of Marine, Navy and Residents, the Marines again demonstrated their capability by finishing on top, though they lost their first game to the Residents when Tom McQuade hit Second Row: Brahms.

May 8th. This time the Residents started off like wild horses and managed to win six straight before bowing to the Austin Hall or Marine “B team. The Residents continued to hold on to first place, however, until the last week of competition, when they hit a snag and lost three straight, while a determined Fedigan club, after getting a bad start, put on a drive which carried them into a tie for first place. In the play-offs of a tie scheduled game be- tween Fedigan and the Marine ”B teams, the Fedigan Navy outfit downed the Marines and so added the necessary number to their win column which enabled them to be crowned Spring soft- ball champs. There were no Spring all star games. Second Row: Mayer. Dumaa. Conway, J.. Quinn. Reagan. Boylo.

It was a five team league, with Alumni, Austin, Fedigan, Mendel, the Residents, and Non-residents competing. Alumni Hall, home of premedical Navy stu- dents, duplicated the achievement, if not the rec- ord, which the Marine team made in softball. Though they did not go undefeated in either half of their schedule, they did win both halves, and made any post-season play-off unnecessary. Wal- ters, Critides, Joe Boyle, Powers, and Harvey formed the first five for Alumni, and were the main reason for the success, though their substi- tutes played exceptionally well, too.

The umpire's job is no sinecure. only one game in each half. The outstanding feature of the season was the individual record established by Leatherneck Bill Nealon, who one night scored 47 points in a sin- gle game against the Residents. The previous high had been 35 points scored in 1935 by Whitey Kurchinsky. Fedigan Hall gained momentum in the second half to make things hot for the first and second place clubs. The main factor in their splurge was the consistent scoring of Ed Kolnaski, who fin- ished up as league high scorer. The Dayhop team with Newt Ward, Paul Simpson, and Jack Welch were a fast and dangerous aggregation when they were able to field a full strength lineup. Sickness, however, and injuries, plus the difficul- ties of war-time transportation, kept these scrappy Freshmen much lower in the standing than their ability deserved. The Residents and Mendel Hall brought up the rear of the league this season, exchanging positions in the second half. The All-star team, merely an honorary aggre- gation, consisted of the following: Walters, of Alumni, unanimous choice; Kolnaski, of Fedigan; Nealon, Kasulin, and Kasper, of Austin. These were the first five. The second quintet was made up of: Critides, Powers, Harvey, of Alumni; Dave Ward, Mendel; Goetz, of Austin, Simpson, of the Dayhops.

A1 Severance, varsity coach, thought enough of Simpson, Nealon, and Walters to have them come out for the team. cSwimming Two inter-hall swimming meets were held this year instead of the usual one, because of in- creased interest in the sport arising out of the Navy program. The first of the two meets was held just prior to the Christmas vacation, on De- cember 17th. A huge number of entries turned out and kept the officials busy . . . and wet. At the end of the night's competition Fedigan Hall was way out in front in number of points, chiefly because of the work of Charlie Dailey, who car- ried off honors in the sprints and bolstered up the relay events by swimming anchor. He is a former Maryland State interscholastic champion. Bill Ko- ness, a veteran intramural performer, was the star for Mendel Hall; Larry Schmidt took the breaststroke event for the Austin Marines; Bill O'Hare, Alumni sailor, won the backstroke. The second swimming night was held May 19th, and again a record crowd of entries turned out under the stimulus of Specialist Cover Brunt, the Navy swimming instructor. In this meet Men- del turned the tables on Fedigan and Charlie Dailey, 34 2-29' 2. in a very hotly contested series of events. The highlight of the evening was the 50-yard free style event in which Bill Koness al- most upset Dailey, holding the lead throughout, only to lose by a mere nose.

They piled up their score chiefly through second and third placings. There was a diving event in this second meet, won by Ripley of Fedigan, with Frank Habenicht of Austin second.

These were put on under the direction of the specialists, and proved a great source of interest, demon- strating the practical nature of naval aquatic instruction. tBoximj. Boxing, like swimming, was expanded this year because of the stress laid upon it by the Navy. Two series of bouts were held instead of the usual one under the guidance of Father Mc- Kee. The first night was held in January, the sec- ond in April. The naval personnel turned out en masse and the fighters were looked after by the Ship's doctor and a pharmacist's mate. Service rivalry between Sailors and Marines added extra zest to the night's bouts when occasionally the match-making moderator could arrange for a swabbie and a gyrene to trade punches.

There were a number of T.K.O.'s, bouts stopped by the referees, Tommy Loughran and A1 Severance, be- cause of some combatants' unwillingness to stop trying. Often the man with strength enough to land one or two solid blov s in the third round took the decision after both boys had thrown everything in the book during rounds one and two. The bout between Ben Paradee and Ice Mc- Govern was filled with hard and clever boxing, as was the set-to between Bill Lamb and George Burkhardt, all four boys being fairly adept. Unoffi- cially the feature bout of the evening brought to- gether Dick Breen and Roger Lattanza. It ended in a draw, but not until the house had rocked with yells and excitement as the boys stood up and traded blow for blow in friendly mayhem. Part of intramural swimming nights was given over to interesting exhibitions of mothods of soil preservation after disastor at sea. Ropo laddor climbing with Mao West is no easy feat.

A couple of comic bouts enlivened the pro- ceedings, with John Donahue and Greg D'Angelo putting on a wrestling burlesque, and Tom O'Connell and Red Nealon laying the boys in the aisles with a bout which began by O'Connell challenging the house and Nealon volunteering'' through the persuasion of four fellow Marines. In the second set of bouts there was a notice- able step up in results of the training period. The boys were in finer fettle because of Art Raimo's instructions, and better matching was possible because of the previous results. Frank Solis had a bigger reach, which Bill Lamb was unable to solve, though he was barely outpointed. Red Brahm jabbed Bucky Flynn into defeat, carefully avoiding a continuously danger- ous haymaker. The Reynolds-Schmunk bout was a humdinger slugfest, with Reynolds giving out enough punches in the third round to get the nod. Joe McGovern outpointed Bill Burke after it looked for a while as if Burke would come from behind to take the decision. The Tucker-Atkinson bout was a highlight—a Marine-Sailor affair in which Atkinson superior experience and speed were too much for the very willing leatherneck; both boys were greatly applauded. So successful were these bouts that it is planned by the athletic officer and the moderator to conduct a series of inter-collegiate bouts with other V-12 units in the neighborhood, if at all possible.
