Villanova University - Belle Air Yearbook (Villanova, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 238 of the 1951 volume:

Four brief years ago when we entered Villanooa as enthusiastic freshmen, full of hope and expectancy, Father McGuire welcomed us with the promise that ours was to be the heritage of a Villanooa Education. In this book we shall endeavor to show just what a Villanooa Education is, and how it exemplifies our motto-. Veritas, Unitas. Caritas...Truth. Unity, Charity .” Now we invite you to take up and read. . . TOLLE LEGE. v E R I T A S • U N I T A S • c A R I T A S jf m eunaatm Who� is a Viilanova Education? Is 1� the student wearily grasping for the microscopic secrets of a living organism as the late winter afternoon shadows gather outside Mendel Hall? Is it the seminarian kneeling in meditation in the silent darkness of St. Mary's Chapel? Or is it the booming cheers which shake the Stadium as the rugged fullback crashes across the goal line, or could it be that light which burns late oach Thursday night in the basement of the C. F. building as the Villanovan is prepared for the presses? A Viilanova Education is all these things, and much more. It is the living embodiment of threo virtues urgently needed yet woefully lacking in modern society: Truth, Unity, Charity. The ideal of a Viilanova Education is the training of the whole in- tellect and will of the young man and the development of his whole soul through grace. Our traditions are not based upon massive buildings or effusive pedagogics, but upon the timeless achievements of men who, through the years, have endeavored to serve God and thoir fellowmen to the utmost of thoir ability. To these men and to all other men of Viilanova, past, present, and future, we reverently dedicate this 1951 Belle Air. UN itas Veritas TRUTH is an essential factor in every phase of a Villanova Education, but its presence is more notable in the academic field of endeavor. The truths of Catholic Faith and Scholastic Philosophy supply the fundamental basis upon which we establish the truths of all other branches of learning. UNITY of purpose and unity of action are necessary to the survival of every type of society, and collegiate society is no exception. The vital part played by unity in a Villan ova Education is best exemplified in the spirit of teamwork which pervades our varied program of var- sity and intramural athletics. CHARITY or love for God and love for our fellowmen are the most practice living for God and in harmony with their fellowmen in a variety of Religious and social extra-curricular activities. essential requisites for a happy and a holy life. Men of Villan ova 7Jrs- 6 THE MAIN ENTRANCE to Mendel Hall is passed by a high per- centage of Villanovans each day. Nerve center of the campus by reason of the administrative offices which it houses, Mendel Hall is also largo enough to accommodate the resident cafeteria, some dormitories, the science laboratories, and most of the en- gineering activity of the college. VILLANOVA IN 1856 was very small. To the left is the Monas- tery, in the center the Academy, now Alumni Hall, and at the right is a barn and residence combined. On the opposite page is the campus in 1872 and the college building completed in 1844 is to the right. In the center is St. Rita's Hall which had been the old Rudolph home, and to the left is the Cha pel and Gymnasium. of EDUCATION and RELIGION villanem is As so many other institutions whose existences cover an entire century or more, Villanova has been characterized by many changes. Were any of the first graduates alive today, it is scarcely imaginable that they would recognize their alma mater. The changes, so noticeable in additional buildings and increased enrollment, give testimony to a fascinating growth about Villanova on the Main Line. When Fr. Patrick Moriarty of the Order of the Her- mits of St. Augustine bought an estate from John Rudolph over one hundred years ago and formulated plans for a college, it is doubtful he ever imagined what would develop from such crude resources. Yet the Belle Air Estate of John Rudolph was destined to grow finally into a college embracing several departments and two thousand stu- dents. Though purchased in 1841, Villanova was not opened until two years later, when thirteen students were admitted. 'Jkrnqh the tjea is THE ABSTRACT IDEALS In the beginning the College had a curricu- lum much like that of the present School of Arts. Whether pupils pursue the general course of studies or confine themselves to par- ticular branches will be left to the option of Parents or Guardians. The particular branches refer to major courses such as Philosophy, Lan- guages and History. When the first catalogue was published in 1871, it listed a faculty of sixteen. Definite courses of study were offered including three years of preparatory work and a four-year college course in the Arts, with provision for more extensive work in scientific and commer- cial subjects. An outstanding link between the college in the 1870’s and Villanova today is Alumni Hall. Built in 1874, the new College Building housed the entire scholastic part of the school. Since then it has undergone many changes until to- day it is no longer the center of campus activity, but merely one of five student dormitories. In 1905 Villanova organized its engineering department. The courses offered at that time THE OLDEST of all the buildings on cam- pus, Alumni Hall, now serves as a dor- mitory. Situated near the center of campus. Alumni stands as a symbol of days gone by. FIRE broke out in the Monastery during the summer school in July, J932. Through the Grace of God there was no loss of life and the adjoining buildings were saved from the holocaust. DELUREY HALL, on the edge of the cam- pus at Spring Mill Road, was the year's winner of the Connelly Award, for their show of spirit prior to the Kentucky go mo. THE NEWEST building on the grounds, the Library, was completed in 1948. Complete in every respect, tho Library is equipped to handle up to 400,000 volumes affording the student every possible advantage in research and social study. OF INTELLECT AND SOUL... included Electrical, Civil, and Mechanical En- gineering. Later this was followed by the es- tablishment of the Pre-Medical course in 1915, whose main purpose was to meet the more stringent requirements for entrance into Medi- cal School. With the beginning of the School of Com- merce and Finance in 1921, Villanova had com- pleted the establishment of the three major departments of study. It had met the growing needs of the country with ever widening oppor- tunities for the education of Catholic men. 9 ALL NAVAL ACTIVITY on campus centers about Commodore John Barry Hall, the Naval R.O.T.C. building. The building is equipped with modern naval apparatus including a rifle range, and complete radar unit. Snuxh m THE FIELD HOUSE, situated at the eastern end of the campus facing Lancaster Pike, is the center about which numerous sports, social, and religious activities revolve. AUSTIN HALL, a student dormitory, located along the main walk, now has, in the former library wing, a student lounge complete with easy chairs and television set. IN A VILLANOVA EDUCATION... FEDICAN HALL, named after Father Fedigan, former President of Villanova, is located along Spring Mill Road. It is one of the larger dormitories and is reserved for upperclassmen. COMMERCE AND FINANCE BUILDING contains, along with its classrooms and executive offices, a modern thoator audi- torium sealing 595 which is used ex- tensively for lectures, departmental ex- aminations and debates. ARE REFLECTED SIMPSON HALL, a student dormitory, is the residence of the College Chaplain, who is always available for private counsel to any student. MIDDLETON HALL, the college infirmary, is where all minor aches and pains are cured. The infirmary staff includes the Father Infirmarian, doctor, male nurse and student aides. O'DWYER HALL, another resident dormitory, was named in honor of Father O’Dwyer, first President of Villanova. It was recently equipped with a television set purchased by the stu- dents who live there. THE CHEMICAL ENGINEERING BUILDING contains the most mod- ern chemical equipment available. It is one of the newer buildings, with a large outdoor spray acting as part of the cooling system. IN THE NOBILITY ST. RITA'S HALL, above, is another building used by the future members of the Augustinian Order. It is built on the silo of the Rudolph Mansion overlooking the main entrance to the campus. THE ST. THOMAS OF VILLANOVA MONASTERY, upper left, is one of the largest single structures on the cam- pus. It is the Mother House of the Augustinian Prov- ince of St. Thomas of Villanova and provides living quarters for our priest-teachers. ST. MARY'S HALL fCorr Hall), left, is the homy of the seminarians; the building also contains classrooms, reception rooms, and a chapel. After the preliminary schooling at Villanova the seminarians complete their studies and arc ordained in Washington, D. C. THE CHAPEL, with its twin spires dominating the land- scape, is the center of the student's spiritual life. The gothic workmanship of the inferior, with cherubs looking down on evening chapel service (see opposite page), matches the exterior symmetrical beauty. AND TRADITION... OF THESE BUILDINGS DEDICATED to St. Thomas of Villanova and under the patronage of Our Mother of Good Counsel, Villanova has grown from the original Rudolph mansion house and barn to the present 27 buildings on a 166 acre tract extending for about three-quarters of a mile along Lancaster Pike. VERY REV. JOSEPH M. DOUGHERTY, O.S.A. Father Dougherty was elected Provincial of the Eastern Province of the Order of St. Augustine last Summer. A former Prior of the Monastery and Professor of Biology, Father has had many years of experience with administrative problems. BOARD OF BOARD MEMBERS, Mr. Cyril J. Burke, a prominent C a t h o I i c layman, and Father Donnellon, Prior of the Monastery, relax with the college newspaper while waiting for the meeting to commence. For any college to function smoothly it must have some form of internal control. At Villanova College this group is the Board of Trustees. This body meets monthly to decide the policies of the college, to approve new faculty members, to regulate the finances of the school, decide upon new constructions, check all investments, and in general keep a watchful eye over the college. The Board consists of the Very Reverend Joseph M. Dougherty, O.S.A., Provincial of the Augustinian Order in the Eastern Province and Chairman of the Board; Very Reverend James M. Donellon, O.S.A., Vice-Chairman; Very Reverend Francis X. N. McGuire, O.S.A., President of Villanova College and Treasurer of the Board; Reverend Joseph C. Bartley, O.S.A., Dean of the Commerce and Finance School and Secretary of the Board; and Reverend John J. McMcn- amin, O.S.A., Procurator of Villanova College. The Board also has two prominent Catholic laymen members in Mr. William Simpson and Mr. Cyril J. Burke. The combination of clergy experienced in academic procedure and laymen with insight into the business field gives the Board well-balanced administration. The expansion of Villanova as we see it today is a result of the excellent foresight of these men. Ever mindful of the needs of the college, thoir program for expansion carries well into the future. Already it can be seen in the three new buildings and the forthcoming heating plant. A QUESTION about materials for the new heat- ing plant is placed on the agenda by Father President and Father McMenamin, Procurator of the college. BOARD OF TRUSTEES Mombers meeting in the President's office are: Mr. Cyril J. Burke; Rev. Joseph C. Bartley, O.S.A., Secretary; Very Rev. Francis X. N. McGuire, O.S.A., Treasurer; Very Rev. Joseph M. Dougherty, O.S.A., Chairman; Rev. John J. McMenamin, O.S.A.; Rev. James M. Donnellon, O.S.A., Vice-Chairman. Pictured at right is board member Mr. William Simpson. TRUSTEES President In the seven years since Father McGuire assumed the office of President of the college, Villanova has undergone some of the most pronounced changos in its history. The growth of Villanova College in the past few years, with its new buildings, laboratories and other facilities, coupled with the record-breaking enrollment of veteran and non-veteran students, and the erection of temporary units to care for the passing crest, are facts which attest to the administrativo genius of the Father President. Father's success as President is not surprising to those who know him, for his previous positions as Instructor, Counselor, Doan, and Vice- President have proven to be inspirational to both the faculty and stu- dent body. His work today continues to inspire all those members of the Villanova family who directly or indirectly come under his influence. Father McGuire's continued record of high achievement, combined with a calm and congenial manner, cannot but win the respect and esteem of both his colleagues and the students. The members of the Class of 1951, who in the past four years have witnessed and partici- pated in the expansion of Villanova, have full confidence in the leader- ship of Father McGuire. THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT passes upon a widely diversified range of situa- tions and decisions arising from the operation of Villanova. In the picture below, Father McGuire and Mr. Gallon are discussing with Freshman William Walker the course of study which his next throe years would follow, should Bill choose to study Civil Engineering. VERY REVEREND FRANCIS X. N. McGuire, o.s.a., d.d. President DEAN OF MEN, Father M Keo, holds a three-fold position on the Administrative Staff, which demands a quality of abil- ity far above the ordinary. ACADEMIC ADMINISTRATION is the chief concern of Father Edward M. Dwyer, but he manages as well to maintain student classroom contact by teaching his beloved philosophy courses. TJice- Pfiesiaeni Reverend Edward B. McKee, O.S.A., holds the positions of Vice-President of the College, Dean of Men, and Moderator of Athletics. As Dean of Men, it is his duty to direct tho housing of resident students and to act as disciplinarian. It is the function of the Vice-Presidont to be an assistant to the President in the formulating of school policies and to serve as a contact between the faculty and executive board of the college. In his capacity os Moderator of Athletics, Father McKoe spends a great deal of time in the preparation and execution of intercollegiate schedules. Father McKee has brought with him to his various positions a wealth of necossary experience needed to fulfill them. Since '31, and prior to his appoint- ment as Vice-President, ho has been an educator, a counselor, the Moderator of the Villanovan, and Director of Intramural Athletics. Doan of the College, though a very impressive title, signifies much more than first may be observed. Rev. Edward M. Dwyer, O.S.A., as Dean of Villanova College, must work very dosoly with the faculty and students to assure a smoothly working institution. The decisions concerning which subjects will be taught, at what hours, where, and by whom, must all be decided with care by the Doan. He must also give guiding counsel to students. Since its creation in 1944, the position of Dean has been filled by Father Dwyer. He was presented with the onormous problem of directing the smooth transition from a war-time to a peace-time college. This is one of the many jobs which he has successfully accomplished. Father is a graduate of Villanova, and has also studied at Wurzburg, Berlin, and Rome. He now complements his busy hours in the office with teaching hours in the fiold of Philosophy. p)ean ADMINISTERING Just as every business concern mus� have capable officers so must a college have efficient administra- tors. But the work of college officers is twofold since they solve not only business problems but student problems as well. For example, if you were a stu- dent this year. Father Boyle, the Assistant Dean, would have arranged the basic schedule for your curriculum. In addition to this he would be the man who solved your problems with the draft board. Father McMenamin, the Procurator, took charge of ordoring and purchasin 3 of the maintenance and operational equipment for the entire college. Order- ing your textbooks, buying the new equipment for your labs were just a small part of his job. When REV. DANIEL P. FALVEY, O.S.A. Librarian REV. EDWARD J. McCarthy, o.s.a. Dean of Extension Schools J. STANLEY MOREHOUSE Dean of Engineering REV. JOHN W. TUOHY, O.S.A. Dean of Freshmen REV. EDWIN T. GRIMES, O.S.A. Chaplain REV. JOHN J. McMENAMIN, O.S.A. Procurator REV. JOSEPH C. BARTLEY, O.S.A. Dean of Commerce and Finance ' yv, marKs arter each quarter last year they came from the efficient office of the Registrar, Father McDonnell, who conducted your entrance examina- tion when you first came � 0 college, and who will send your transcript to employers after you gradua- te. Handling the purse strings for any institution demands the service of a capable comptroller. You pay your tuition � 0 Mr. Dever, and he in turn expe- dites payment of the bills rendered for college oper- at,on and expansion. Every college student faces, at one time or other, life’s darkest moment. At such a moment Father Grimes' aid is invaluable. The Chaplain’s advice or consolation can solve the most difficult problem, helping to form a strong soul to complement the Villanovan’s sound mind and body. This year Father Bartley was able � 0 devote all his •nergy to his job as Dean of the Commerce and Finance school. He completed a re-appraisal of the C F curriculum to improve even more the largest of the college schools. ADROIT COUNSEL REV. GEORGE J. McLaughlin, o.s.a. Dean of Student Activities GEORGE A. HARRIS Placement Director REV. ROBERT M. SULLIVAN, O.S.A. Dean of Arts and Sciences . iff WILLIAM F. FRIEL, III Alumni Officer Borrowing a book from the library was a simple procedure for you as a student. But it was so only because of the efficient job done by Father Falvey and his staff of librarians. If you were an engineer, your studies fell into tightly planned and organized curricula. Dean Morehouse has done well his job of keeping Villanova among the top engineering schools. Appointed this year as new Dean of the Summer and Extension Schools, Father McCarthy has brought with him to his new office the efficiency and organiza- tion that characterized the Arts School when he was its Dean. As an arts student you would have deal- ings with your new Dean just appointed this year. Father Sullivan replaced Father McCarthy, and re- mains as the English department head. From the day when you get your blue dink to the time you gain Sophomore status, Father Tuohy, as your Dean of Freshmen, keeps you in line during the introduction to college life. Your student or- ganizations were not just haphazard and your stu- dent government unorganized with Father McLaugh- lin as the Dean of Student Activities. After you grad- uate Mr. Harris of the Placement Bureau will help to place you in a job suited to your college training. Mr. Fricl will enroll you then as a member of the Alumni Association so that you can keep in touch and recall your days under these administrative officers.

'...THOU GOOD AND FAITHFUL FATHER LUDWIG leaves the classroom building after a full day's work only to return at a later hour to prepare laboratory material to augment his loctures. Whether it was the stillness of an empty laboratory during student holidays or the serenity of a nearby brook, Father was always at work in his chosen field, to instruct, aid the student, and, above all, serve God. A profound loss to both the Augustinian Community and the students at Villanova College was the death of Father Francis J. Ludwig, O.S.A., noted scientist and professor of Biology. Father Ludwig was a native of Philadelphia and entered the Villanova Preparatory School in 1920. Four years later he became a novice in the Augustinian Order, gradu- ating from the College with the Class of 1928. In June, 1931, he was ordained a priest and one year later assigned to the faculty at Villanova. His post-graduate work started at the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, Massachusetts. Subsequently he received his Master of Science Oegree and Doctorate Degree at the University of Pennsylvania. Father Ludwig achieved an outstanding reputation for his work in micro- scopic organisms, and received wide recognition for his ability to draw and observe microscopic life. Death took Father Ludwig from us fol- lowing a short illness. People from all walks in life who had the opportunity of studying under Father Ludwig or knowing him, shall long remember his modest attitude and most valuable contributions to the field of Science. SERVANT In early Fall of 1950 death took from our midst one of the oldest graduates of Villanova and a member of the Board of Trustees. J. Stanley Smith was a native of Scranton, Pennsylvania, and settled in Philadelphia following his matriculation at Villanova. His graduate work took him to the University of Pennsylvania where he received his M.A., Ph.D. and LL.D. degrees. Mr. Smith had for many years been a trustee of the college and a past President of the National Alumni Association. He was a member of the Philadelphia Bar for more than fifty years. A past President of the Villanova Club of Philadelphia, ne was honored in 1933 as the second recipient of the coveted Loyalty Award presented to an outstanding alumnus each year. Among his other achieve- ments, Mr. Smith was a life member of the Philadelphia Country Club, a member of the Seaview Golf Club, and the Pennsylvania Athletic Association. He was a board member of the Overbrook Farms Club and, at the time of his death, he was President of the Kingsley Club. In his later years Mr. Smith took an interest in the correction of speech defects and formed chapters of the Kingsley Club in various cities. He also lectured extensively on speech correction in the United States and abroad. No longer will we have the honor of seeing his familiar person at events of a Villanova nature, however, his illustrious career will always remain an inspiration to all undergraduates. FATHER O'MAHONEY was the oldest Augustinian priest and Villanova alumnus up to the time of his death, almost two months prior to his ninoty-fifth birthday. He is shown at his favorite pastime, checkers, in the Monastery Community Room. Father's skilled playing gave him an undefeated record during his four years of retirement at Villanova. J. STANLEY SMITH was the second oldest alumnus of Villanova College. Throughout his life, Mr. Smith was extremely devoted to Alma Mater, for which he served several years as a member of the Board of Trustees. A prominent man in his profession and a familiar face about the campus, Mr. Smith was often seen at important college functions. He is shown above ringing the college bell at a ceremony marking a post-war phase of Vil- lanova expansion. “He was an inspiring speaker, whose strong, clear voice was enriched by the resonant qualities characteristic of Celtic influence. Nimble of brain and sharp of wit, he was happiest when engaged in conversation with his friends. Thus was part of the description of our revered and departed Father Daniel O'Mahoney, O.S.A., who at the time of his death, was the oldest alumnus of Villanova College and priest in the Order of Saint Augustine. Born in Islip, Long Island, New York, and early in his priesthood days assigned to Lawrence, Massachusetts, Father O’Mahoney became a prominent figure in the religious life. His affable manner afforded all who knew him a pleasure not easily for- gotten. Father O’Mahoney served many years as a parish priest, then as pastor of Saint Augustine’s Church in Andover, Massachusetts, also pastor of Saint Augustine's Church in Philadelphia, and earned an enviable record as a member of the Augustinian Mission Band and Retreat Master at Villanova College. Father O'Mahoney returned to Villanova where, at the age of ninety, he became an inspiration to the young priests of his order. His daily walks along the campus pathways were occasions for him to talk to students and faculty, who enjoyed his congenial manner and interesting stories of the past. Father O'Mahoney’s life was enriched with the blessings of his Creator which mani- fested themselves in the conduct of his priestly duties. His attainments in the religious life will endure as the epitome of objectives for those who follow in his footsteps. ttrrr SOUND MINDS COMPLETE RECORDS are kepi of all physical examinations and Irealments given in the infirmary. In the picture above. Father Francis Boyle, O.S.A. College Infirmarian, checks this infor- mation with Nurse Hanna. THE STETHESCOPE has become almost the symbol of modern medical treat- ment. Operating on hospital standards of treatment and procedure, Doctor Loefflad performs the daily check on one Villanova patient. DIETETICS is a vital part of the process of making sick people well. Here Doctor Loefflad and Nurse Hanna discuss the best diet for one of the “patients” at the Villanova hospital. NEED SOUND BODIES DR. PAUL LOEFFLAD, M.D. Ian cos on abscess for one of the students at the Villon ova infirm- ary. Such fobs are routine for the Doctor who protects the health of two thousand Villanovans. In accordance with time honored educational tra- ditions Villanova aims at forming sound minds in sound bodies. The College molds the former with its curriculum and student activities. Sound minds thus fashioned are complemented and given healthy environs by the sound bodies Villanova also helps to form. To keep this unit of body and mind operating smoothly is the particular task of the College Infirm- ary. Located in Middleton Hall, a separate building that is secluded among trees at the most quiet corner of the campus, the Infirmary presents more home than hospital-like appearance. Actually, Middleton Hall was once a private home converted for student use, as were several other dorms at the west end of the campus. Inside, the Infirmary shows itself to be an orderly, organized, junior-sizo hospital. Up-to-date medical equipment operates throughout the first floor, and upstairs there are several wards that contain 21 beds for ailing students. Father Francis Boyle supervises services of the In- firmary and attends confined students during the night. A male nurse is in attendance during the day, and Dr. Loefflad, school physician, calls daily. BLOOD TESTS to arrange donors of suitable type when transfusions are needed arc made through the infirmary. In this picture Nurse Francis Hanna adjusts the microscope as part of this operation. ; Thou boldest all things in thy Hand in truth, and all things! in so far as they haue a being are true, nor is there any falsehood! unless something is supposed to exist which does not exist —!

ATTAIN THEIR Traditional Dinks, name-buttons, and turned-up cuffs were the predominant picture on Ccmpus as the Freshman Class started its college career. Since that first day, in line at regis- tration, the Frosh have undergone a significant change, a change from home life to college life, from high school graduates to men of Villanova. They have earned the respect and admira- tion of upper-classmen through their cooperation during the orientation period and have given convincing evidence that theirs is a class of spirit and activity. The Frosh have gone through the orientation period just as all other classes have had to do, and they did this with vigorous determination. The outstanding fidelity of the Class of 1954 during this period may be traced to the fact that this group is composed almost entirely of recent high school graduates. It is a much younger group than those of previous years, and as such showed a re- markable ability in acclimating itself to the new surroundings. On the whole, the Frosh showed a genuine interest in any and all activities. They participated freely and with such a tre- mendous spirit that theirs is surely to be a great class, a class appreciative of and loyal to Villanova.

This huddle seemed to pay off because on the next play the Yearlings scored. But it was not enough to overcome the deficit; the Sophomores won the game ending the day’s activities.

The need was felt for a school separate from that of the Busi- ness Section of the Arts School. Since that date, the Commerce and Finance School has grown to the posi- tion of having a larger enrollment figure than any other school on campus. The need for men with special training along the lines of commerce has become more apparent with the passing years. At Villanova the C F student is given a choice of study in four major fields: Finance, Accounting, Marketing, and Pre-Law. Electives in the curriculum consist of such associated subjects as: Economics, Banking, Insurance, and Advertising. Cultural courses in Philosophy, Social Sciences, and Languages are offered to insure the student an op- portunity to obtain a well-balanced education. Since its inception, the Commerce and Finance School has been under the capable administrative hand of its Dean, the Reverend Joseph C. Bartley, O.S.A. Its uninterrupted survival through a depres- sion and World War, and its highly specialized pro- grams are a tribute to the management and astute planning of Father Bartley and the Administration. REGISTRATION in the field house is a necessary preliminary to each semester of study at Villanova. Here Father Bartley, Dean of the Commerce and Finance School, and Mr. Dover, the College Comptroller, help two C F stu- dents make necessary adjustments in their rosters. FATHER DUNNE draws a chuckle in his Financial History course, a not unusual achievement for him. This course is offered for the School of Commerce and Finance, though many Arts students Find time to take it as an elective. INSURANCE is the course of study in the picture at left. And there must be some- thing humorous on that exam paper which Mr. Henry is showing to John Farley. This course is conducted for marketing majors and pre-law students. FATHER McLAUGHLIN is covering ground in his Money and Banking course in the C F building, and everybody seems to be right with him. The Business School offers degrees in the economics field. MR. HENRY ANSWERS some questions raised after class. The students around him seem to be dead serious, but the two fellows on the right have found something amusing, judging from the expressions on their faces. SOPHOMORE CLASS Francis P. Dayton, Maj..

OF FUTURE... They ore no longer green, inexperienced Frosh, but neither are they full-fledged upperclassmen. The Sophomores are in a scholastic interlude between their Freshman and Junior years. It is a year of great decision wherein the student carefully chooses and enters his specific field of en- deavor. It is also a year of memorable occasions, the height of which is always the Sophomore Cotillion. Then, too, it is the year when the oriented become the orientors and show the “new boys the now- familiar paths they themselves had traveled just one year before. The second year men now know what is expected of them as students, leaders, and participators in the various activities. They arc fully aware of the re- sponsibilities resting on their capable shoulders. They, the Class of '53, must carry on where the Class of '52 leaves off. How well they will attain success as a unit is indicated by the record of the year just passed. One of the largest classes to enter Villanova, they ore fortunate in that they have tho guidance of the Roverend Joseph G. Kemme, O.S.A., as their Moder- ator. In the short span of two years, the Class of '53 has demonstrated an enthusiasm for Villanova unparalleled for its fervor and ardent spirit. John S. Earwaker, Jr., I Daniel P. Falvey, O.S.A., It.

BULL SESSIONS and out- door studying are favorite pastimes at Villanova. In warm weather they take place on the campus wher- ever there is a convenient shade tree. THE SO PH COTILLION provided an enjoyable evening for 600 such couples os pictured at left. A HAYMOW might have been the photographer's perch when this shot was taken at the Sophomore Cotillion. At any rate all the couples in view seem to be enjoying themselves. The Harvest Moon decorative fheme was well chosen and expertly carried out by the committee. THE HARVEST MOON smiles brightly down upon the dancing couples as the Villanovans drift into a second chorus of “Thinking of You.” SOPHOMORE COTILLION The Sophomore Class sponsored its first social function on campus with an overwhelming success. The yearlings conduct an informal dance during the first semester each year and play host to tho upperclassmen through this medium. This year's event was cast in a Harvest Moon theme with an original atmos- phere cleverly created in the Field House. The effective centerpiece consisted of cornstalks surrounded by a rustic fence under the shadows of a brilliant Harvest Moon glowing over the scene. An advanced sale for a capacity crowd assured the class of a financial suc- cess. The music of the college aggregation, The Villanovans, enhanced the autumn setting to the satisfaction of all in attendance. With this successful venture behind them, the Sophomores show greater promise for the future and thoir unified backing of subsequent events executed with the same spirit of the Cotillion will qualify them to meet the challenges that lie ahead. FATHER SULLIVAN enjoys a chat with Professor Driscoll and his wife. These three look right at home, and well they should, for they are among the most consistent backers of student functions at the college. NAVAL TRAINING COMMENCE FIRING! Whether he be in the small-arms mount, or tending the helm, the midshipman learns by doing. Thorough knowledge of Naval equipment and weapons is the goal of intensive training afforded every NROTC student. Rules which govern the behavior of a 22 pistol are the same for the anti- aircraft gun, and problems worked out on a mack bridge on dry land will someday make their value apparent aboard a Fighting was performed by the Unit's Staff and distinguished visitors following graduation ceremonies last June. Here Secretory of Navy Matthews casts an approving eye through the sights of the 5-inch gun as Captain Greytak and Captain McCormick, PNS, look on with pride. The Navy conducts “Open House frequently during the year, to acquaint visitors with the work done by the NROTC. THE LOUNGE or library is a frequent gathering place for naval students. The Lounge, which houses a well-stocked library of pertinent military information, is the center of informal classes, discus- siorts, recreational projects and all non- curriculum work. AT ITS BEST. Begun following the war, the Naval Reserve Offi- cers Training Corps, organized under the direction of the Holloway Bill, is aimed at the education of men for the active and reserve branches of the Naval Service. Villanova was one of fifty-two colleges chosen for this program. Housed in recently completed Barry Hall, in which there has been gathered over a million dollars worth of technical equipment, the Naval Science Department realized its largest enrollment this year since the in- ception of the new progrem. Three hundred and twenty students are listed under either the regular or contract status. The program provides not only an education and a commission but the closest knit organization on the campus. It boasts of a rifle team, a fancy drill team, and keen intra-battalion competition. Upon gradua- tion it is with a great deal of pride that these mid- shipmen take their gold bars and join their brothers from Annapolis in the service of their country. “ENEMY BEARING 025 DEGREES TRUE, barks the telephone talker in the “Mark 38 director, and an- other laboratory problem is ground out.

Junior Year is perhaps the happiest year of the average stu- dent's college career. He participates in more activities, strengthens bonds of friendship begun in his Freshman Year, and studies a little harder than he has ever studied in his scholastic life. His third college year is an almost perfect blend of severe study mixed with a full share of memorable extra- curricular activities. Two episodes stand out in the memory of the student of the Class of '52. The first is the occasion which stresses the charit- able facet of the Villanova student's personality, Operation Yule. No Junior can ever forget Junior Week when he is King of all he surveys. Under the guidance of the Class Moderator, the Reverend Dante L. Girolami, O.S.A., Mom gets a chance to see him in the environment of his second home while his best girl is treated to a round of dances and parties in the Villanova fashion. The Blazer Ball gives him a chance to sport his new jacket, complete with the shield of the College, and the Junior Prom and Dinner Dance bolster his ego with the full dress” look. But all is not play and the social whirl. Ecch Junior has buckled down to some serious, concentrated effort.

GOSH, FOR ME?” This wide-eyed tyke expresses a reaction of amazement typical with the 400 orphans who each received a gift from Santa at the party. Other boys wait with patience unusual for youngsters who had just displayed unrestrained energy visiting toyland. “AND LISTEN, SANTA, please don't forget . . . whispers one of the tykes credulously into Santa's ear. TOWARD ALL... Each year the entire student body participates in “Operation Yule. The function has become a tra- dition on the campus through the charitably efforts of two former Villanovans and has gained popularity with ooch year's visit to the Orphanage. The Junior Class is charged with the responsibility of executing the function and its first phase consists of a campus-wide collection of donations to finance a Christmas Party and the purchase of gifts for the orphans. In addition to the classroom collections this year, the committee sponsored a Hobo Hop in the Field House, which stipulated dungarees and plaid shirts as the uniform of the day to make the affair strictly informal and different from any other dance of its type on campus. The dance, coupled with the generous donations from the students and friends of the college, helped the committee reach their goal. A few days before the party, many Villanovans arranged to escort an orphan into Philadelphia and treat him to dinner. The outing lasted all day and involved a trip to toyland, visit to Santa Claus Head- quarters and the purchase of a gift. The annual party is held at the Orphanage the day before classes end for the Christmas Recess and in- cludes entertainment, refreshments, food, and an- other gift from Santa himself. With the new year come several letters of appre- ciation from the children and the Sisters who equally enjoy themselves at the party. Any Villanovan who has in even a minor way participated in the function will testify that it is a most worthy cause and looks forward to next year's heralding of Operation Yule.

Chemistry SELFISHNESS IN NONE In the year 1905 a Department of Engineering was opened at Villanova; it was the first such venture in a Catholic Eastern College. Since that time, a choos- ing of the best instructors, continuous and expensive additions and replacements of material equipment, and constant reorganization of curricula to parallel technological advance have established and main- tained its high reputation. Today degrees are offered in chemical, civil, elec- trical and mechanical engineering. The special do- main of the engineor includes: the chemical engineer- ing building; the basement of Mendel Hall with its maze of machinery; the modern, elaborate engineer- ing drawing room; and, in good weather, the cam- pus green, by now probably one of the world's most surveyed spots. The Freshman course for the engineer is the same for all four branches; specialization begins in the Sophomore year and becomes more intensive in the last two years. An extremely important part of the student's program is the thorough background of personal experience in technological practice which he receives from his lengthy periods of laboratory work. PROFESSOR GEORGI (below, left) is shown pointing out pertinent facts about the test paper he is return- ing to Anthony Oswald in a course in Reinforced Con- crete Design.

Philosophy NUNS from various religious communities are a fa- miliar sight on campus during the summer months. Their work is devoted almost entirely to the pursuit of gradualo degrees. THE PRE-CLASS CONFERENCE is just as much a part of the rou- tine in summer school as it is during the regular session. Here two teachers iron out diffi- culties met in an education course. SUMMER SCHOOL In addition to the regular, full-time day school, with which most Villanovans are well acquainted, the college also conducts a part-time division con- sisting of an Evening Division, a Saturday Session, and a Summer Session. The Rev. Edward J. Mc- Carthy, O.S.A., Ph.D., is Dean of this part-time divi- sion. The purpose of these sessions is to afford to those unable to attend the regular day school an oppor- tunity for advanced study'on either the undergradu- ate or graduate level. The courses are conducted at Hallahan Catholic High School in Philadelphia and on the Villanova campus. Study may lead to either the certificate or the degree. Regular day students desiring supplementary courses or making up academic deficiencies, and those who aspire to, or are members of, the teaching profession generally comprise the largest number at these sessions. All part-time courses are co-educational and are open to lay students and members of religious com- munities. During the summer, the natural beauty of the cam- pus is further enhanced by the religious attired in their various habits. J. Stanley Morehouse, M.E. Prof., Mechanical Eng. Michael J.

Down at the 30th Street Station of the Penn- sylvania Railroad, a group of young men boarded a train marked Pooli Local. It was the last leg of a journey that for some began in the farthest reaches of our country. Others came from the more imme- diate area surrounding Philadelphia. Together they converged on a quiet station about half way up the Main line on what might at one time have been just another trip. This time it was different. This time they were on their own. The station was on the cam- pus of Villanova College, and they were part of the Class of 1951. If anything was more removed from our minds as we went through the various phases of what later became known to us as registration and orientation, it was the thought that some day we would walk from this campus with a diploma in our hands. The dinks,” the name buttons, and the rolled pants leg all served to remind us that we were the lowest form of campus life. The men in the white hats never let us forget that we were responsible for what seemed at the time all the spirit yet left in the world. There were the long marches to rallies at dusk with our voicos singing the praise of Villanova, the torchlight parades to the railroad station when the team left for a big game, the thrill and excitement of a trip to West Point to see our school play mighty Army. DO YOU REMEMBER the night The Great Arno per- formed at a class meeting during Sophomore Year? His two assistants were Pete D'Alonxo, who later on sparked the Wildcat eleven at fullback, and Ed Bau- senwein. MOST RESPONSIBLE for the success which the Class of 1951 has enjoyed in all its activities over four years are the two men pictured below. Joe Rugo succeeded George Schuster as President this year after George's two terms in office. COUNT VILLAIN CATNAPPED by Georgetown rooters! That's how the headline in the Villanovan blared forth the awful truth in Freshman Year. Rushed into service as mascot for the game was the pussy cat pic- tured above. Careful, boys, he's dangerous.

Cut lists, student summonses to various adminis- trative offices, placement an- nouncements, social events, all find a place on the board. Here two students survey the listing of majors for students in the Arts School. The fun, the novelty, the many enduring friend- ships that were made in that first week soon gave way to a more awesome spectacle. We were con- fronted with our first college textbook, a massive treasure of learning with complicated pictures and high-fiown phrases, or so if seemed. If the books were bad, the first class was worse. A stern black- robed figure with a commanding voice outlined the fiendish schedule of procedure that seemed an impos- sible torture far removed from the modest require- ments of high school. All this, combined with the loneliness of that first time away from home for some, made the first weeks particularly challenging. But suddenly it changed. The books weren’t so massive if you read them; the profs were human if you did the work iwhich wasn’t too impossible after all). You found time to investigate that fabulous suburban utopia called the Main Line. You scouted MOTHER'S DAY is one of the most important items in a closely packed Junior Week schedule.

Philosophy WILL BE CHERISHED... for the first time that social ordeal laughingly referred to as a Tea Dance. You wielded a hammer and paint brush to make your hall come out on top in the decorations contest for the Georgetown game. You participated in the bull sessions, went to the dances, sweated out the examinations, made b wonderful retreat, ogled the beauty of the campus at Christmas, and did a million other things. Then a wonderful thing happened: June was here, and you were no longer a Freshman. Sophomore year saw us wearing the white hats and dishing it out just as wo had taken it twelvo months ago. Studies were o little harder, and some of the starters had dropped out, but the fun was more rewarding. The three piles of brick and steel that we had stumbled over and supervised a year ago were now three ultra-modern buildings to dress up the campus. The Sophomore Cotillion gave us our first chance to show our stuff as a class, and we came through in top form. The subject was Physics that year, and we all agreed that no better means of torture was over devised. The post war enrollment of veterans that had reached its peak the year before our matriculation was now tapering off considerably.

Classes were no longer scheduled from eight in the morning until eight at night. Mendel Hall received a face lifting, and many of the classrooms on the first floor that had walled our first efforts at college learning disappeared in favor of modern offices for the administration. The new library was the big attraction of the sec- ond semester. Anyone who had ever set foot in the old library in Austin Hall had a double appreciation of the advantages of this new giant of streamlined culture. It was a big year for sports, too. A great football team accepted a Harbor Bowl invitation to trounce Novada. All together the team won 8, lost 2 and tied 1. The season ended with a major change in the coaching staff, when Jim Leonard replaced Jordan Olivar. Basketball season was more than re- warding when a series of great games in the College Field House culminated in the representation of Dis- trict 2 in the N.C.A.A. playoff games at Madison Square Garden. Junior year was the one for which we had been waiting. We were now officially upperclassmen, entitled to all the privileges and activities that go with the distinction. We weren't disappointed. The first big item on the list was the class ring. It was the emblem of our arrival into the big time, and we were proud to flash it around campus. Then came the Orphanage Christmas Party where the entire school was given the chance to show that it had a heart and proved conclusively that it did. The big event of the year, of course, was Junior Week. The spirit of success was in the air from start to finish. Mother's Day, the Blazer Ball, the Prom, and the Dinner Dance were more than enthusiastically re- ceived. It seemed as though the year had ended before it really began, but we had stored up enough memories to last a lifetime and more besides. It was here at last: the year that most of us never thought to see on that sunny day when it all began. But it was different than we had expected it to be. Some of us didn't return to finish. Most of us were wondering whether we would be here to grasp that diploma, and some were forced to leave with victory in sight. The vibrant memories of this triumphant year are recorded on these pages. They are im- printed far more indelibly in our minds and hearts. It is not a particularly inviting world into which we depart, but the background of four short years at Villanova is all that we could want with which to face it. COMMENCEMENT opened a bright future for Bill Ceroid, who prepared himself with degree, commission, and smile from his pretty fiancee as she pins his well-earned stripes to his shoulder. „ SECRETARY OF THE NAVY, Francis P. Aioffhews, who delivered the principal address at commencement exercises, received Villanova's honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters. Father McGuire, College President (above, left), congratulates the Secretary after the presentation of the degree. The two officials are standing on the patio of the Library building used for the first time last year as the site of graduation exercises. YEARS OF TRUDGING to classes back and forth across the campus were climaxed by the academic procession on the Library green. Like each day during the school year, each step of the march brought students closer to their goal, graduation. Wearing academic robes, each graduate carries on his arm the hood that bears colors signifying his college and degree. BEHIND THE SCENES: Father Crawford, Chairman of the Physics Department, is explaining a point in the science cur- riculum to Father Sullivan, recently ap- pointed Dean of Arts and Sciences. Programs of study are constantly re- vitalized. THIS FASCINATING APPARATUS which Father Jenkins is observing may be found in the hydrogenation laboratory. It is a fractioning column and it is used for distilling various liquids and for breaking the liquids into their different components.

HENRY ROFINOT'S COURSE in United States History, below, is a required course for Education students. The hu- morous sidelines and little known facts of history provided by Dr. Rofinot make ARTS AND SCIENCES One of the oldest departments of Villanova College is the School of Arts and Science, which prepares men for the great professions of today’s changing world. Since 1946 the School has broadened its scope to include major studies in English, History, Education, Sciences, Pre-Dental, and Pre-Medical. To say that the School of Arts and Science has pro- gressed is an understatement; it has gone forward with tremendous strides in recent years to envelope all fields of arts education. During this school year. Reverend Robert M. Sulli- van, O.S.A., has been appointed Dean of this school, succeeding Reverend Edward J. McCarthy, O.S.A. The School of Arts and Science has ably fulfilled its purpose by sending men out into the world with the educational background to cope morally with the modern trends of thought and action. FATHER McSHEA'S sharp wit and sparkling humor con- stantly commands the attention of his classes. A pithy comment by Father on some aspect of the modern drama evokes a smiling response from the students. John W. Tuohy, O.S.A., M.A. Asst. Prof., Education John J. Vrana, O.S.A., M.A. Prof., Eng.

IN MEMORIAM FRANK TRACY Frank Tracy was born August 3, 1929. He attended the Sacred Heart Parochial School and received his secondary edu- cation at the Lancaster Catholic High School, Lancaster, Penn- sylvania. He enrolled at Villanova in September of 1947 where he became an Accounting major in the School of Commerce and Finance. In addition to being an honor student, Frank was a member of the Accounting Society and Delta Pi Epsilon Fraternity. He was the victim of an automobile accident while at home during the Thanksgiving recess of his Junior year. As the Villanova De Profundis Bell knolls in memory of his absence, our prayers are offered for his eternal rest.

VILLANOVA 39—Duquesne 12— Miami 7—Tulsa 7—Kentucky 20—Georgetown 7—Detroit...... 29—Boston College 7—Louisiana State 13— St. Mary's THE MANY ELEMENTS AND TRAVEL HOURS... The inaugural game of the 1950 football season pitted the Duquesne Dukes against a new version of the Wildcats. Goodreau Stadium witnessed a sharp-clawed Villanova team battle its way uphill against the surprising Pittsburghers. The powerful Cat offensive more than made up for a spotty de- fense and went on to win, 39-28. Undoubtedly the outstanding performers on the field were Pete D’Alon- 20 and Bob Haner. D'Alonzo did everything but drive Duquesne out of the stadium, and what he left un- done his sophomore understudy, Haner, accom- plished. D'Alonzo brought the crowd to their feet when he returned the opening kick-off 79 yards. Pete not only scored two touchdowns, but he gained a total of 201 yards. Haner also scored twice and added two extra point kicks as well. Villanova's other two touchdowns were scored by right end Joe Rilo on a pass from quarterback Neil O'Boyle and a 25-yard end around play. Needless to say Duquesne kept the 'Cats on the alert all day but Villanova was the superior team. The victory was Villanova's fourth in the seven game series with the Dukes. MUDDY WILDCAT. John Bogan, right, grimaces as he is brought down by DelBello of Miami after snaring a pass. Miami handed the 'Cats their first defeat of the year, 18-12. Halfback Walt Zuber. below, falls behind his interference, John Bogan 1841 and Ted Oroski (61), at Franklin Field. Zuber was nailed by an unidentified Kentucky tackier. In quest of their second victory the Wildcats trav- elled South to play the Miami Hurricanes in the Orange Bowl before 36,000 fans. A three-day rain, however had turned tho field into a quagmire, and in a contest that bordered on the farcical, for it was played in an incessant rain, the 'Cats suffered their first loss of the year. The Mainliners scored first when D'Alonzo plunged over to climax a sustained drive. The Miamians coun- tered with a similar drive to knot tho score and then went ahead 12-6 after a poor Villanova punt. In the third quarter both teams staged long drives which resulted in scoros, D'Alonzo again countering for the 'Cats, and the score stood at 18 to 12 at the end of this period. PAYDIRT. Halfback John Geppi drives over the goal for the first i an ova tally as his teammates pile up University of Detroit players at the scrimmage line. Other Villanova players are: quarterback Neil O Boyle 114), game captain; tackle Ray Man- tone (71); and tackle Dick Connor (74). omL° jUOfJZ° f ' P e wos Edited willi ten touchdown! dole d.:T ‘«nT ,8 °W' fnd Smi'h r ',a '« hord b, o ho W u ■ 0nqUe,ed 27-7, in one or the Wildcats seven road games. DOUBLE-TEAM In the fourth quarter the Wildcats made a futile effort to tie the score only to be frustrated when D'Alonzo was stopped on the one-yard line. The game concluded with the Hurricanes one touchdown to the better. In testament to the playing conditions is the fact that not one extra point conversion attempt was successful. Trying to avenge their only defeat of 1949, the Mainliners, on October 14th, travelled to Tulsa, Okla- homa. A combination of a weak pass defense and a stalled offense led to a 27-7 Wildcat downfall. One of the oustanding performances for the Wild- cats was the hard running of Pete D'Alonzo, who gained 167 yards in 21 carries. Another bright spot was the last quarter touchdown pass from soph quarterback Bill Brannau to halfback Dick Bedesem. Long passes and hard running featured the Tulsa attack in the first half. Led by the passes and gen- eralship of Ron Morris, Tulsa held a 21-0 lead over the Wildcats at halftime. Early in the last period, Morris passed 34 yards for Tulsa's last score. The extra point attempt was blocked by Tony D'Alessio. Villanova's score was set up by a runback of a punt by halfback Joe Till which put the ball down on the 23-yard line. From this point, the Brannau to Bedesem pass was completed for tho touchdown. Haner's conversion was good. DEAD END. George- town’s Thompson is in for an abrupt stop by Joe Howanski. Mickey Frinzi played a vital role in the Mainliners' win by scampering for a touchdown with one of his three intercep- tions. COACHES. Kneeling: J. Ludlow Wray, Line Coach; James R.

Fullback Pete D'Alonzo, above left, heads toward the goal as Duquesne half- back Longmore tries to stop him. D'Alonzo scored two touchdowns as he ripped through the Dukes for 201 yards. VILLANOVA'S LONGEST. Outrunning a helpless Georgetown defender, Joe Rilo, left, stretches for an over-the-shoulder catch. This pass play, Villanova s longest, was worth 45 yards. THE MUD BOWL. Miami’s Frank Smith sloshes through the mud in the Orange Bowl for a gain as Coughlan (811 and Haner 130) head him off. The Hurricanes won, 18-12. The outstanding player on the field was Mickey Frinzi, who intercepted three of Georgetown's passes making one good for a 50-yard jaunt into pay-dirt. He was the thorn in Georgetown's side as he com- pletely stalled their attack by batting down two moro on his own goal in the closing moments of the game. ALL-AMERICAN CANDIDATES.

Paul Tomko’s face is hidden by a scene- stealing Boston College Eagle. Villanova conquered the Bostonians, 29-7, in the traditionally rough battle. AND WHITE SQUAD. Villanova's second home game, played at Frank- lin Field, saw Kentucky, ranked fourth nationally at the time, take the Main Line Wildcats with an early surge. Vito Parilli went to work with business-like effi- ciency setting up the first touchdown with a 30-yard pass, scoring a second T.D. by throwing a 50-yard pass and plunging one yard after a roughness pen- alty against the home team. From here, at 20-0, until the final quarter, the teams were evenly matched, and the expected duel of Parilli-by-air vs. D’Alonzo-by-ground began to materialize. But the final period opened with a Ken- tucky scoring plunge, and soon after a deflected O’Boyle pass was intercepted for the Rebels' final touchdown. Pete D’Alonzo drew blood for Villanova before the end as a token of Yankee opposition to a team against which only one touchdown had been scored in all of its five previous contests. The 'Cats found their way back to the winner s circle when they defeated their traditional rivals, the Georgetown Hoyas, 20-14, at Griffith Stadium, Wash- ington. The Wildcats’ offensive ground attack was stymied mostly because of an injury to star fullback, Pete D'Alonzo. Villanova’s main threat came from the air when quarterback Neil O’Boyle found the mark for nine completions of 16 attempts, one good for a 45-yard touchdown. A very great improvement in Villanova's previous weak pass defense proved to be the de- ciding factor in the game. 125 OF INDOM l TABLE SPIRIT I THE LAND OF SUNSHINE. Frank Smith 1 | of Miami churns and squirms across the ‘ I Villonova goal. Three inches of rain in I 24 hours made the Field a quagmire. | Villonova failed in a desperate attempt , ' in the final seconds of the game to tie I the score. O’ Alonzo tallied both Vil- L bnqva_touchdowns. ' The ever-travelling Wildcats again took to the trains, this time to play Detroit, whom they had beaten in five successive meetings. Luck was against our Wildcats, however, and Detroit won, 18-7. Villonova appeared set to continue its streak against the Titans as Walt Zuber made a fine 42-yard return of the opening kickoff and, after Pete D'Alonzo had driven 12 yards to the two, Geppi bulled over. Haner added the extra point, and the Wildcats led, 7-0. But from then on, a foe who capitalized on the breaks, rain, and 30-degree cold, beat the 'Cats. Frinzi's hurried punt into a stiff breeze from the 20 carried only to the Villonova 32. Here the Titans dis- played their only real power of the game, as Full- back Mike Goggins plowed his way across the goal in three tries, the last from the 9. The try for the extra point was missed, as were their other two, and the wildcats led, 7-6. Again, in the second quarter, Frinzi had to kick, this time from his 6. A high pass from center caused the momentary delay which enabled Lee Witman, Detroit tackle, to block the kick and send it bounding into the end zone, where Don McKenzie fell on it for EAGER TO BEGIN THE SEASON. This photograph, taken in early practices, shows a game but small varsity squad gathered around the coaches. The the second Titan touchdown. Although Villonova later threatened they couldn't score. Early in the third period, Goggins scored the final points of the game after Villonova fumbled on its own 8. The loss brought Villanova’s lifetime record with its oldest rival to 11 wins and 5 losses. Flashing a concerted and diversified offense coupled with a stout defense, the Wildcats pounded out a 29-7 victory over Boston College. Villonova opened the scoring with a safety and racked up seven more points on a 30-yard drive climaxed by D’Alon- zo’s buck from the two-yard line. The 'Cats rang the ell in the second quarter on a sustained 60-yard rive capped by another D'Alonzo plunge. The Eagles countered with a T.D. and the score was 15-7. With seconds to go in the first half, the Blue and Wh,� e scored on a picture” pass play, O’Boyle to 1 o.

The Bengals did all their scoring in the first half with quarterback Jim Barton passing to end Virget for one, and halfback Billy Baggett sweeping the ends for another to make the score 13-0. Led by Tony Marrallo and Bob Haner, the Wildcat defense halted a Tiger drive on the four-yard line. From that point Villanova marched 96 yards for its only score. Line thrusts by Geppi, Zuber, and Haner, together with end-around carries by Bogan and Rilo, moved the ball deep into L.S.U. territory. O’Boylc passed to Rilo for the touchdown and Haner con- verted. Once again climatic conditions were the deciding factors in the mud-pie play against the Galloping Gaels of St. Mary at Kezar Stadium, San Francisco. A driving rainstorm reduced the crowd to a few hundred stalwart seagulls and resolved the contest to a de- fensive foray in which the Wildcats, through a superior defense and the hard charging of Pete D'Alonzo, secured a 13-7 victory. D'Alonzo hammered off the left side and went fifty yards for the first Villanova score three and one-half minutes after the game started. The Gaels countered in the third period when fullback Jack Johnson scored the tying tally. In the last period, however, a recovered fumble set up the opportunity for this year’s outstanding player, Pete D'Alonzo, to score the season's final tally. After the game Ray Mantone was elected Captain for the football year of 1950. Mantone was also named to play in the Blue-Gray game. BRANNAU CARRIES.

The accuracy of Larry Hennessey, left, provided the margin of victory in many fight games, but more than anything else teamwork was the winning factor time and again on this predominantly sophomore club. The backboard work of Mooney, Brennan, and Gepp was unbeatable, while the all- around play of Maguire and Glassmire completed a perfectly-balanced team.

TENNESSEE WALTZ. Larry Hennessey recovers a loose ball during the Tennes- see game. N.C.A.A., BRADLEY, N. .T. TOURNAMENTS Al Severance began his 15th season as Head Coach of basketball at Villanova with the unenviable task of replacing the stellar squad of 1950. The loss of fen lettermen including never-to-be-forgotten Paul Arizin posed an uneasy problem for the basketball mentor. But Severance, whose teams had posted 249 wins against 95 defeats, molded another triumphant combination. With four sophomores, Nick Maguire (co-captain), Sam Glassmire, Larry Hennessey, Jim Mooney (co-captain), and junior Tom Brennan, Al Severance initiated the campaign with a win over luckless Iona, 77-59. Inaugurating the season's double-header program at the Palestra, Villanova was victorious over Tampa’s transplanted Pennsylvanians, 90-63. This time it was the sparkling shooting of Co-Captain Nick Maguire that led the Blue and White. Nick had 23, with Glassmire and Hennessey scoring 15 and 14 points respectively. Showing sporadic flashes of brilliance, Villanova romped to its third victory, 64-44. The 'Cats were not up to their two preceding performances but still had too much power for the Baltimore boys. The scoring was evenly distributed; Ben Stewart led the parade with 11 points. Villanova ran into its first top-flight opponent and squared an old account by beating Louisville, 79-69. The Colonels had visions of duplicating last year’s upset, but the Mainliners started fast, gained a lead and maintained it. Once again it was Hennessey who heading the scoring, but, as in all the other games, this was essentially a team triumph. The boys from Emittsburg, Maryland, found them- selves over-matched as the Blue and White walloped them, 92-61. Hennessey, Mooney and Maguire were the big guns as Villanova coasted to an easy victory. Villanova's sensational sophomores continued their winning ways with a 68-61 stunning victory over hitherto unbeaten North Carolina State. The scoring burden again fell on Hennessey who rang up 33 points. Equally as spectacular was the play of Sam Glassmire, who aided with numerous assists and allowed high-scoring Sam Ranzino only 11 tallies. In a game that saw the lead change sixteen times, the Titans of Detroit were bowled over, 67-58. With three minutes remaining, the 'Cats grabbed a 57-56 lead over tho more experienced Detroit team. Hen- nessy's scoring, the floorwork of Maguire and Glass- mire, and the rebounding of Mooney and Brennan amounted to another great team win. Though four starters left the game via the personal foul route, the 'Cats still possessed too much reserve power for Tennessee; the Vols lost, 91-72. The Southerners led by a score of 43-34 at half-time but withered before the barrage of Villanova baskets. Four starters had double figures with both Hen- nessey and Brennan in the twenties. The high-riding Wildcats met defeat as Fordham's Rams combined Bill Carlson's hook shots with a tight defense to win, 52-44. With the Rams effectively WILDCAT CAPERS.

Midway in the second half Villanova spurted to within one point, but an intercepted pass again gave Fordham a three-point edge, and they went on to upset the Mainliners. Villanova began another victorious streak at the expense of Scranton and Rider in two unimpressive games played in the Field House. Scranton's possession type game could not ruffle the 'Cats; the Severancemen were never headed. Larry Hennessey and Jim Mooney led the Villanova scoring as the Royals lost, 52-38. Rider came and went, but not before putting up a surprising struggle before finally succumbing, 62-48. The Villanova sharpshooters regained their na- tional ranking by tripping N. C. State, 66-64. For the second time in the season the Wolfpack was de- feated, both losses coming at the hands of Villanova. A capacity crowd of 8,700 at the Palestra witnessed Villanova prove that the first win was not by chance. Fifty-eight personal fouls were called in the tightly officiated contest. The Severance charges and N. C. State's veterans exchanged the lead several times before Steve Gepp's two foul shots in the last two minutes won the game. Sam Glassmire playod one of the finest defensive games of the year in holding State's Ranzino to four points, even fewer than their first meeting. Glassmire tossed in 10 points while doing a superlative guarding task. Larry Hennessey and Tom Brennan garnered 18 and 16 tallies respec- tively while Jim Mooney collected 19 rebounds. GOOD FOR TWO.

JIM MOONEY Texas Wesleyan had the misfortune of becoming the Wildcats' thirteenth victim at the Pennsylvania Palestra. Larry Hennessey's 20 points and Nick Maguire's 18 led the Severancemen to a 71-66 triumph. An all-time Palestra high was reached as Boston College was steam-rollered, 98-67. The incom- parable Hennessey missed only seven field goal attempts in bagging 37 markers for the Mainliners. Villanova ventured forth on its second road trip to meet and defeat both Ouquesne and Geneva. Larry Hennessey's foul conversion and Sam Glassmire's layup in the waning seconds gave the Wildcats a 68-65 decision over the Dukes. Tom Brennan netted 28 points to lead the scorers in the 82-61 conquest of Geneva. Connecting on nine consecutive shots in a swel- tering scoring splurge, Hennessey collected 26 points to pave the way for the Wildcats' 17th win of the season, a 67-43 rout of Muhlenberg. The Villanova Wildcats reached the zenith of their season's achievements after humbling King's College, 94-57. They now boasted an 18-1 record and were ranked eighth nationally. The inevitable recession set in, however, and in their next three contests the Mainliners were upset by Toledo, Seton Hall and Princeton consecutively. AFTER A TRIUMPHANT SEASON... ARIZIN?

LARRY HENNESSEY NICK MAGUIRE Despite 22 points by Larry Hennessey, the Toledo Rockets, paced by a well-balanced attack which had four men in double figures, snapped the Wildcat win- ning streak of nine with a 62-57 victory. Two days later, at South Orange, N. J., Seton Hall gave the Wildcats their worst beating of the year in registering a 71-54 victory. Instrumental in the Pirates' conquest was 6’ 11 Walter Dukes who poured 25 points through the basket. Princeton's 61-49 triumph was primarily a defensive achievement. So good was the Tiger defense, the high-scoring Hennessey was un- able to launch a shot, and the remainder of the squad, though battling valiantly, could not take up the slack. The three-game losing streak was terminated at West Point with a 65-44 victory over the Army. Hen- nessey resumed his scoring ways by chipping in 23 points and countered two nights later with a 29- point performance against St. Peter’s in the season's wind-up at the Field House. The score was 93-61. Seton Hall fell victim in a re-match to an irate 'Cat five by a 67-61 count. Larry Hennessey furthered the cause no little by dunking 30 points. Three days later the Main Line youngsters hit for exactly 50 percent of their shots, as ranking Duquesne was toppled, 88-71. Hennessoy's 35-point spree was followed by Sam Glassmire's 18. Taking on Geneva for the sec- ond time of the season, the Wildcats launched a 73-51 rout. This was followed by an over-time game in which St. Bonaventure squelched the Severance- men, 74-69. N. C.

TROUBLESOME 13 The only thing that the Wildcats and William and Mary had in common was that they were two of the three select teams that had beaten North Carolina State. Villanova successfully smothered the Indians, 87-59. Siena was the last team to venture into the Wildcats' lair and were clawed to the tune of 78-57. The Villanovans ended their season with the finesse of a tournament-bound team. And rightly so, after rejecting one bid from the N.I.T., Villanova was scheduled to face N. C. State, for the third time this year, in the N.C.A.A. Tournament. Further honors were showered upon the 'Cats by the Bradley Tour- nament as an invitation to meet Utah was accepted. MOONEY SETS.

Twice conquerors of the Wolfpack, Villanova failed in an attempt for a third victory by a 67-62 score. Minus three of its regulars the Southerners bottled the Mainline offensive with a four-man zone and a float- ing fifth man on Hennessey. Blue and White fol- lowers that witnessed the game were dismayed to see a defense appear which had effected disastrous results in previous games. Ben Stewart proved to be a reliable man under pressure as he tallied 19 counters. Voted “most valuable by his teammates, Larry Hennessey threw in another 16 points. Hoping to alone for this first post-season loss the quintet was squelched a second time; this loss came in the Bradley Campus Invitational Tournament.

The year 1951 saw all three eligible for varsity competition. Barry, as a freshman, had given promise of adding strength to Elliot's thin-dads. John Joe became the Indoor National Mile champion of 1950 the same night the sprint-medley team bettered its feat as champions the year before. The medley relay team composed of Jim McKenna, Jack Holmes, John Fur- linger, and Joe McCreary cracked the old world standard with a lightning 1:53.6. TAPEBREAKER.

Villanova's tracksters gained ninth place on the boards in the IC-4A championships through the tallies of Olympian Browning Ross, Jim McKenna, and the mile relay team. The diminutive Ross was shaded by Seton Hall's Thigpen in the 1000 yard run. Jim Mc- Kenna, a junior at the time, placed third in the 600 yard in a field so evonly-matched that only five yards separated the first and sixth place men. The com- bined efforts of Joe McCreary, Pete Simigan, Bob Cunjak, and John Furlinger as a mile quartet suc- ceeded for a third place behind Seton Hall and Colgate. The first cinder session, the Seton Hall Relays, marked the debut of James Reardon, former Irish Olympic team captain. Reardon's performance was largely responsible for the distance-medley mark of 10:32.7 set by Ross, Thompson, Cunjac, and himself. Villanova also scored thirds in the half-mile and mile relays while the two-mile relay accounted for a fourth place. Dual meets with Seton Hall, Manhattan, Army, and N.Y.U. were the oft-repcated story of lack of team depth. Villanova jerseys consistently placed in every running event; the Blue and White seldom had less than five tape-breakers but always in a futile cause. Villanova was hard-pressed to prevent sweeps in the field events. Cummin Clancy is expected to fill the void in the weight events in the 1951 spring session. WHEN COACHES MEET.

McKenna was credited with 9.8 and 21.2 seconds for the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Mc- Kenna, Jack Holmes, Joe McCreary regularly ex- ecuted the quarter-mile in less than 50 seconds. Three men, Ross, Thompson, and Reardon, posted half-mile clockings of 1:55 and better. Barry was one of five men in the select group of 1950 two- milers to run that distance in less than nine minutes. The board competition of our senior year found the varsity eligibility of Browning Ross, George Thompson, and Jack Holmes expired. But the Villanova banners were still carried vic- toriously in the Philadelphia Inquirer meet. The mile and two-mile relay teams duplicated last year's triumphant exploits and still hold the meet records. John Furlingcr, Bob Cunjac, Pete Simigan, and Jim McKenna formed the mile team while half-milers Joe McCreary, Art Klepper, Fred Dwyer, and Larry Paturzo joined in the two-mile relay. The achievements of Fred Dwyer on the two-mile relay team in Philadelphia and Boston earned him an invitation to the Millrose Games. Only a sopho- more, Dwyer finished third in the half-mile. The mile relay quartet, edged by Seton Hall, gained second place in the Millrose Games due largely to the spirited running of Jim McKenna. Villanova track men are expected to give a good account of themselves in the remaining indoor season and in the cinder meets of 1951. THE CENTURY. Below, tracksters spring from their starting holes.

Jake Austin tagged a 360-foot homer for the visitors, but it was a futile blow as the Wildcats rallied in the eighth. The following three games were heartbreakers for the Mainliners as they went down to defeat in the ninth inning at the hands of Penn, Equitable Life, and Georgetown, successively. The 'Cats travelled to New York for their next game only to lose to the Fordham Rams by one run, 3-2. Then a strong Rutgers nine trounced the Wildcats at New Brunswick, following which the Blue and White suffered their fourth road defeat of the year, losing to Loyola at Baltimore. Villanova avenged the earlier loss to Georgetown y winning their return game at Washington by the score of 3-1. Bob Sexton was on the mound for the Cats and put them back on the winning road.

The baseball Wildcats climaxed their season with victories over the Quantico Marines and Lehigh Uni- versity. Villanova downed the Engineers, 6-4, all Jix runs coming in the last four innings. Sophomore Bob Sexton went the route for the win. The mainstays of the pitching staff for the 1950 baseball team were John Maroney and Bob Sexton. Red Wright, Jack Jamison, and Tom Clavin carried the burden of the catching assignments. Mickey Frinzi, Shy Raiken, Jack Morris were the able and talented outfielders. The inner garden was patrolled by Larry Aiedinger, Moskal, Hartnett, Tom Jones, and Weglicki. (V2. wc.th help c4S MAPPING THE PLANS.

FOOTBALL The 1950 season opener was a dismal one for Villanova's Wildkittens. A strong, well-polished, Navy eleven handed the local lightweights a 49-12 setback at Goodreau Stadium. The Middies all but clinched the victory with three fast, first-period touchdowns. Frank Neary and Joe Billera tallied for the Kittens. Billera was outstanding both on offense and defense in a losing cause. Against Rutgers, Coach Jack McConville’s charges bounced back to a strong defense and a lightning- like offense with speedy Joe McCreary providing the scoring punch. The fleet fullback racked up three T.D.'s on dashes of 72 and 64 yards and a one-yard plunge. Joe Billera added the fourth score on a pass from Bob Heller. Frank Neary converted twice. The Little Wildcats defeated Cornell in their third tilt of the season, 7-0. Scoring early, the Kittens held the “Little Red scoreless for the entire contest, and at the same time showed a diversified system of offense. In gaining 218 yards, the workhorses behind the alert line were Bottino and Billera, the latter combining with Frank Neary for the Mainlincrs' winning seven points. In a battle for second place in the Eastern Intercol- legiate League, the lightweights of Princeton downed our Kittens, 31-26. Touchdowns were plentiful, four coming in the first ten minutes of play.

FRESH MAN SQUADS The unsung heroes of the gridiron are the members of the yearling football squad coached by Bernie Bradley and Jack Moran. Using opponents' plays the freshmen sharpen the claws of the varsity. Rugged frosh play indicated that they could capably fill the ranks of the varsity depleted by graduation. In the two scheduled games against Annapolis and West Point the first-year squad broke even. A 39-18 thumping of the middies was followed by a 12-26 loss to the plebes on the Hudson. “Maje McDonnell completed his second season as freshman basketball coach with a two-year record of 24 wins and 3 losses. The three losses were all received during the course of the 1950-51 season. Two losses to Seton Hall and one to St. Peter's com- prised the three deficits. Iona, Loyola, Muhlenberg, Rider, Brown Prep, and the University of Pennsyl- vania wore the victims of the Kittens, Pennsylvania going down to defeat twice.

The first half of the Class A resident league found the Alumni Toppers in the role of the conquerors of the program's strongest league. The Toppers were fol- lowed closely by the Fedigan Big Five with a 5 and 1 record. Consistent for the Toppers were Tom Flynn, Tom Falkowski, Bob Sexton and Jude O’Donnell, while the Big Five was paced by Tom Brennan, Bill Lemmer and Red Wright. In the B League another Alumni team, the Caps, with a perfect slate out-lasted a second-place Barracks I team. Alumni's Bob Brab- son sparked the Caps, and Dave McConny was largely responsible for the Barracks attaining a second place. The Swishers captured first-place laurels in the Class C League with a clean score of 5 wins. Noel Spillane and Jim Maffei spurred the team to its conquests. ALL MINE.

Thus it was that campus religious activities this year were marked with even greater than usual fervor. Students, in- secure victims of war tension, found their solace and comfort in the peaceful atmosphere of Chapel. Though Villanova students may have had addi- tional religious incentive this year, they never were strangers with God. Since the founding of the Col- lege, Religion has played a major role in its purpose of educating Catholic gentlemen in Christian prin- ciples. The annual student retreat is one example of the religious traditions through which Villanova has pros- pered. The one-hundred-eighth presentation of this three-day exercise took place this year during the holiday between semesters. It came at an opportune time, providing spiritual encouragement to many stu- dents who were not sure they would be able to complete their school year. More recent in origin, but providing additional needed spiritual activities was the 28th annual one- day retreat, conducted on the Thursday before the First Friday of October, at the beginning of the school year. “OUR LADY OF VILLANOVA'S SHRINE was obtained from student contributions to hang in the Field House during re- treat services. Students, left, kneel be- fore the American-style Virgin which rises above Villanova's campus com- memorating Papal promulgation of the Assumption dogma. CONFESSION, below left, is stressed as a vital part of successful retreats. Many students, like Denny Craig, below right, brought dates to traditional nocturnal adoration services held all night before conclusion of annual three-day retreat. PROVIDES INCENTIVE HIGH MASS, BENEDICTION and conferring of the Papal blessing brought to a close the one hundred-eighth annual retreat of the Villanova student body. Rev. Stephen Lanen, O.S.A., former College English professor now associated with the Augustinian Mission Band, was retreat master for the exercises held at the close of the fall semester. The altar from which he is giving the blessing was an addition this year, designed, like the new shrine, to increase religious atmosphere during Field House services. COLLEGE CHAPEL often provides a beautiful setting for students' marriage ceremonies. This year John McBratnic exchanged vows on its altar with his bride, Mary Jane Cox. SEEKING SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION, two men,below, make a quick visit to Our Lady's shrine along the path from the railroad station before beginning a class day. THREE PRIESTS who had special roles in student spiritual guidance this year are shown below: Left, Rev. James Sher- man, O.S.A., master for the one-day retreat at the beginning of the school year. Center, Rev. Edwin Grimes, O.S.A., College Chaplain, directed all religious activities. Right, Rev. Stephen Lanen, O.S.A., master of the annual three-day retreat. GENERAL RELIGIOUS SERVICES at which the entire student body convenes must be held in the Field House instead of the Chapel with its smaller ca- pacity. Chairs are set up, the stage is equipped as an altar and the shrine is hung at the rear of the audi- torium to give the building as much of a church-like atmosphere as possible. This was the third year for the Cana conference, a day of recollection for married students and their wives; and the second year for the Pre-Cana con- ferences for engaged couples. Both were held during the Spring semester, the latter, on Sunday afternoons during Lent. Whatever may be his immediate future, the Villa- nova-educatcd Catholic gentleman will at least be prepared to meet the challenge of a turbulent world. And with him will go the recollection of the peace ful hours spent with God in his College Chapel. FOR OUR DAILY EFFORTS. SANCTUARY SOCIETY ROW 1: J. McNulty. C. G r k , W. McNulty, 0. Sw« n y, C.

SANCTUARY SOCIETY THE SACRISTY is a familiar placo to members of the Sanc- tuary Society. In the picture at left George Gereke fills a cruet in preparation for the Holy Sac- rifice of the Mass. “To be Christ's page at the altar To serve Him freely there . . . In brief, this is the whole purpose of the Sanctuary Society which enlists services of students to assist at various religious functions conducted on campus during the school year. As the oldest student organization, formed the year Villanova was established, the Sanctuary Society has now completed its 108th year of service by and for students. Daily Mass, evening Benediction, First Fri- day devotions. College retreats, all were conducted with the aid of Sanctuary Society members. Seventy students were active this year in the group. Active is a correct description, since the Society admits only men who are interested in fulfilling its aims. Conditions of membership require a student to be a Catholic of high character. He must be in good stand- ing with the College, and familiar with, or willing to learn, the procedure of sacred ceremonies. So that no really interested student would be pre- vented from joining the group, the Society also con- ducts special classes for men who have to learn rubrics for an acolyte. This year marked the return of Rev. Edwin T. Grimes, College Chaplain to the post of Sanctuary Society Moderator. Fr. Grimes filled the position vacated by Rev. Thomas P. Purcell, who has been transferred to Staten Island, New York. Through its program of service the Sanctuary So- ciety encourages students to become better Catholics. It gives members an opportunity to gain special grace by assisting in the sanctuary, by becoming Christ's pages at the altar. An innovation in student religious activities this year was the organization of an all student choir known as the Schola Cantorum. This group is com- posed of thirty-eight men under the direction of James D. Mahoney, student organist for the evening chapel services. The liturgical choir sang at the regu- larly scheduled chapel exercises, the annual retreat, and other religious services throughout the year. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE of the Sanctuary Society is composed of the officers pictured above in the Chaplain's office: Charles Peters, Secretary; and Dave Anthony, President, seated. Dave Sweeney, Assistant Secretary; and Don Wilson, Vice-President, standing. SCHOLA CANTORUM SCHOIA CANTORUM ROW 1: R. Pellcrscn, M. Murphy, J. Hefele, J. O'Hara, J. Mahony, C. Russell, J. Fraser. P.

Jack Rowe, above, complies as Jim Clarkin, Bob Resnick, Armory Bru- noI, Jack Cray, and Bill Brenninghouse try for a look under the hallowed kilt. Lackie, above right, is stunned when first presented with the kilt as a birthday gift. A real challenge to its skill and ingenuity arose when Belle Masque decided to present Beaumont and Fletcher's Elizabethan comedy The Knight of the Burning Pestle last spring. Not only was the play difficult from an acting standpoint, with numerous incidents of audience participation, but the decision to copy the stage of London's Globe Theatre as an authentic setting for the play was not an easy one to execute. Belle Masque had experienced difficulties before, however, and does not choose its productions with simplicity as a keynote. No one was surprised then when The Knight turned out to be one of the society's biggest hits. The audiences immediately warmed to the hilarious story of a group of actors about to pre- sent a stuffy Elizabethan love story which is inter- “I FOUND OUT!” shouts Tommy. The secret of the kilts is revealed as Lackie grimaces while Kiwi and Blossom look on. YANK IS AMUSED by Sister Margaret, Mary Leavy, in her efforts to show Blossom how to use a thermometer. Kiwi in the background appears to be inter- ested. “I’VE QUID TEETH says Lackie above left as he proposes Io Sister Margaret, who is torn between her love lor him and the realization that he must die. Lackie wears his kilt, above, in full splendor as the boys line up for a farewell picture.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT of spying on Lackie, the boys are as yet un- aware of Colonel Jerry OLD MERRYTHOUGHT, Jack Kelly, carries on an amusingly intimate conversation with his audience in this scene from the Elizabethan comedy. THE CLASH OF STEEL resounds again, left as Jasper Merrythought (Ted Doylel and the assassin (Al Scar- ce ) battle to the death.

Jack Kelly and Ellen Solodow look on with profes- sional disgust at this interruption. rupted by a bored citizen and his wife. The inter- lopers complain about the quality of the drama and insist that their doltish apprentice, Ralph, could do a better job. Ralph is given his chance and stumbles in and out of the regular plot with incomparably amusing results. Score another triumph for the sons of St. Gcnesius. Characterization was the keynote this year as the society chose both fall and spring plays emphasizing the individual rather than the plot. John Patrick's The Hasty Heart received plaudits for excellent acting and technical superiority. The embittered Scat with six weeks to live who finds faith in humanity will long be a memorable figure to Belle Masque de- votees. The Great Big Doorstep represented another de- parture from the norm with an amusing and colorful picturization of life among the Cajuns of Louisiana. The surface adventures of the Crochet family provided a basic commentary on the foibles of human nature in a laughable and tender manner. Activities of the Society’s Lambda Pi chapter of Alpha Psi Omega plus participation in presentations of neighboring colleges rounded out a full schedule for the always active thespians.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the mediating body between the administration and students on all phases of campus problems. Its members are student leaders of their respective classes chosen each year at the student elections. The bi-monthly meetings arc held in Mendel Hall and open to all students interested in attending. A typical agenda includes petitions by campus organizations regarding their social routine, proposals by student groups to correct or improve certain procedures, plans for student rallies during the football season, and discussions of general topics affecting student life on campus. Other functions of the Student Council include as- sisting the office staff in the field house at the time of registration each semester, and the orientation program conducted in September for the benefit of all Freshmen. STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS Paul Davis, Shane Creamer and Jake Moran prepare the agenda for the meetings. Paul, the chairman during the first semester, was succeeded in February by Shane. Jake is the Secretary-Treasurer of the organization. STUDENT COUNCIL Row 1: Harry Range, Joseph Rugo, John Moran, Paul Davis, Shane Creamer, George Sc busier. Jack Gib- bons.

N.F.C.C.S. Since 1947, the National Federation of Catholic College Students, a world-wide organization, has aided foreign college students to continue their studies despite the ravaged conditions existing as a result of World War II. The local chapter at Villanova is the largest organization on campus, since its mem- bership is comprised of the entire student body. Re- gional meetings arc held monthly at which time plans are formulated for periodic book and clothing drives, dances, and other fund raising events, the proceeds of which are used to aid students in foreign coun- tries physically, spiritually, and intellectually. Last year one of the organization's major functions was providing the student body with information concern- ing the Holy Year pilgrimages to Rome, an activity necessarily curtailed this year by the suspension of student pilgrimages because of uncertain world conditions. LE ROY KENDALL, Regional Chairman, Courtney Fleming , Senior Delegate at Villanova, and Tom Abrahams, Junior Delegate and Regional Publicity Director, talk over some important club business. COUNSELOR WELCOMES speaker as Father Lozano, Spanish Club moderator, greets Dr. Charles Cadwal- lader upon his arrival in the Commerce and Finance Auditorium for the Spanish Night festivities. Dr. Cad- wallader is President of the Pan-America Association of Philadelphia. The largest student club on campus is the Spanish Club. Through constant effort by Father Lozano, moderator, this organization now claims over three hundred members. The activities of the club are both social and cultural. Culturally the club tries to familiarize its members with the customs and traditions of the Spanish lan- guage as spoken in its natural environment. To de- velop the student's writing ability in the language a literary contest is held each spring. Awards are given by Columbia University for the best essay and poem on the Spanish author, Miguel Di Cervantes. The social activities of the club center around two important occasions. In the fall the combined Span- ish clubs of Villanova and Rosemont hold their an- nual Spanish Night. At this time a Spanish play is given, Spanish songs are sung, and Spanish movies shown. In the spring the most pretentious social activity of the club takes place. This is the celebration of Cervantes Day. Each year the club holds a dinner- dance during which the literary prizes are awarded and the activities of the year are ended. During its many years of activity this club has afforded students many opportunities to gain knowl- edge and to have recreation in the true Spanish tradition. NOCHE ESPANOLA, the culmination of weeks of planning by officers Leon Kaz- mierezak. Treasurer; Tom Flynn, Vice- President; John Roesgen, President; and Lou Lamanna, Secretary, was obviously the success expected if one can judge from the expressions on their faces as they enjoy a coke.

It accom- plishes its purpose by allowing its members further conversational work and varied readings of the German classics. Monthly meetings and social func- tions permit the neighboring colleges to participate in a series of interesting lectures, plays, and to wit- ness foreign films. Under the capablo leadership of its moderator, Father Lunney, the club has progressed in the study of the German language. The Mathematics Club has as its purpose the dis- cussion of those topics which are beyond the scope of the classroom. Under the direction of Mr. Emil Amelotti, club members deal both with practical applications of mathematics and with the pure theory of this science. As speakers the Club has both members and guests. The guests are usually successful engineers from the Philadelphia area. These men speak on the practical side of mathematics while the member speakers tend to a discussion of the abstract theories.

A PROBLEM IS ATTACKED in the browsing room of the library by Interracial Club officers. From left, Wilson Anderson, Treasurer; Tony Calati, President; John Notsch, Vice-President; and Dick Cashman, Sec- retary. The Interracial Club has as its guiding principle the promulgation of the Divine Law that “all men are created equal. Under the supervision of Rev. Wil- liam Lunney, O.S.A., this organization has labored to obliterate the racial prejudice which is so greatly evidenced in this world of chaos. Its praiseworthy members aspire to inculcate into the hearts of man- kind love for their fellow man, regardless of race. Until the world comes to the realization that its con- stituents are all Christ-like brothers in the eyes of God, this hoble goal will be unattainable. The Debating Society has had a very successful year under the capable guidance of Mr. Joseph T. Jonas. With an average of fifteen debates per month each of the members has had ample opportunity to obtain the necessary experience. Most of our debates have beon on the National Question, a problem of current interest which is chosen by a committee repre- senting all colleges and universities. This year. Beta Gamma has instituted a new award for all worthy members of the Society. The award is presented to all debaters who have the required number of points. These points are acquired by par- ticipation in varsity tournaments and debates. Above: Mr. Jonas, Moderator, and Wil- liam Creamer, P r e s i- dent. MR. JOSEPH JONAS, Moder- ator of the Beta Gamma de- bating society, illustrates a program of future contests to the members. The debating club offers practical training in the art of public speaking. DEBATING CLUB INTERNATIONAL The International Relations Club, with the aid and untiring guidance of Mr. Leo Donn, Moderator, strives to attain as its primary purpose, the aiding of Stu- dents in developing a better understanding and ap- preciation of peoples in foreign nations by creating interest in international associations of the world powers. This is accomplished by discussion of topics of an international nature at Club meetings and by open forums. The forums, held in conjunction with local colleges, have been a very special help in fur- thering the Club's purpose and increasing the stu- dent's background of world affairs. The club desires before all else to be a means of scattering abroad the Christian principles which they feel are so badly lacking in the discussions and decisions having to do with international affairs. MOST ACTIVE members of the International Relations Club take time out from classes for an informal dis- cussion in the Villanovon office. They are Joe Tysz- kiewicz, LeRoy Kendall, Joe Mao, and Charlie Butler. RELATIONS CLUB Perhaps this organization is one of the smallest on the campus, but it can in no way be considered the least important. It forms at Villanova the nucleus of a group which will be our contribution to that dy- namic sphere of activity we call modern science. Its bi-weekly discussion meetings, punctuated with plant trips and lecture sessions, give our Villanova physi- cists insight into the latest developments in the field, as well as something of the fellowship and sense of teamwork whicn will be indispensable to them in their later careers. FOUNDER and President of the Chess Club, Frank deLuca, right, engages in a tight game with Rudy Jones in Austin Lounge as members McClellan, Rodriquez, and Murphy look on. CHESS CLUB The Chess Club was formed by a group of enterprising students this year to meet the demand for such an organization. The club's purpose is to foster an increased interest in the game and membership merely requires an interest and willingness to learn. The group meets bi-monthly in Austin Hall where intra-group chess matches are held. It offers a challenge to the men who are familiar with the game and encourages those learning the intricacies of chess. 177 KAPPA PHI KAPPA —ri— � nwiivnoi education rraiernny which brings together young men of high profes- sional promise who are preparing to teach. The Beta Lambda chapter was founded at Villa- nova under the leadership of Doctor Francis Dono- hue, head of the Education Department, and Mr. Raymond Radawski, Class of 1950, and was spon- sored by the Lambda chapter of the University of Pennsylvania. The charter night ceremony was held on April 19, 1950, at Pennsylvania's Houston Hall, a which time twelve education students were ini- tiated. Membership is open to all education students who ave completed at least six credit hours of work in e ucation and can meet a prescribed scholastic av- erage. Requiring that a certain scholastic average e maintained has as its purpose the setting up of some definite goal to which prospective members niay aim and whose subsequent achievement of that goal can be recognized through their acceptance for membership in the fraternity. The chapter programs arc designed to aid the prospective teachers in a practical way by their dis- cussion of the very latest methods and techniques in the field of education and by the guest appearances of leading educators who speak to the membership on practical, every-day problems encountered on the various levels of education.

The activities of the fraternity were directed this past year by its president, Alan Jacobs, in such a way as to afford the Engineering student, who must spend long hours each day in the laboratory, a better opportunity to enjoy more fully a collegiate social life. The fraternity has been enthusiastic in its par- ticipation in all of the social activities of the College as well as its own smokers, motion pictures and forums. The annual Inter-fraternity Ball is co-spon- “VOLTO PETTERSEN can't figure how the bulbs are lighted without electrical connections. For that mat- ter, neither can we!

At the conclusion of the school year, the Humphries Award, which is given to the most promising fresh- man student from the School of Engineering, is pre- sented by Phi Kappa Pi. The moderator this year, as in years past, was Rev. John S. O'Leary, O.S.A. Father O'Leary has con- sistently been successful in his endeavor to fulfill the objective for which the P.K.P. was organized: the promotion of an enthusiastic, lasting interest in all fields of engineering on the Villanova campus.

AII M TEN PLEDGES who have just finished the tortures of initiation sing their praises of the Delta Pi Mu. Throughout the ordeal, the pledges reacted with true Villon ova spirit: Wait till next year! THE SWITCH IS THROWN! Ten million volts surge through the electric chair and another unsuspecting pledge leaps from the shock. The initiators, O'Con- nell and Keiss, seem only mildly amused. Delta Pi Mu has received a great share of promi- nence at Villanova during the past year. This fra- ternity, comprised of students in the Arts and Educa- tion departments, has expanded to almost double its normal membership. Under the capable Mod- eratorship of Rev. John E. Bresnahan, O.S.A., a plan was devised this year for a greater number of meet- ings and a larger range of cultural activities. The unexpected influx of a large number of pledges has given a strong impetus to both old and new members to accomplish greater aims in the name of the Fra- ternity. In a series of lectures, the moderator has stressed the importance of a Liberal Arts background in the present world. Trips to museums and art centers have strengthened this idea in the minds of the members- 82 DELTA PI MU JACK R. MURATORI President ofthe Fra- ternity. ARTS FRATERNITY ROW 1: C. Guarth, D.

Even this indignity failed to dampen the en- thusiasm of this spirited group of pledges. Frat brothers are urged to take advantage of the proximity of the legitimate theaters located in the Philadelphia area, and frequently tickets for desirable plays are raffled off at meetings. The activities of the Delta Pi Mu are not limited, however, to the extent of neglecting the secondary purpose of its organization. An active participation in the Inter-Frat Ball is one of the highlights connected with the social aspect of the Frat. A new policy of initiations has also commenced with the reactivated spirit of the organization this year. The indoctrination was received with great enthusiasm by the pledges, and further fortified their belief in the ideals and spirit of the D.P.M. Delta Pi Epsilon, the business school fraternity, through its sponsorship of educational and social events, has done much to promote good will and a sense of brotherhood among the faculty and student body. During the school year the brothers participate in such activities as frat dances, forums, smokers, and movies. The monthly meetings include an address by one of Philadelphia's prominent business men in which some particular section of the business world is discussed. The Inter-fraternity Ball, sponsored, as its name implies, by the six fraternities on campus, owes its annual success to a great degree to the support given to it by Delta Pi Epsilon. Another annual effort, per- haps the most energetic and most taxing to the membership, is the yearly initiation of the sophomore pledges. This year, in addition to its many other accom- plishments, the fraternity compiled a directory of all D.P.E. brothers, past and present, dating back to 1922, the year of its founding. Basing all endeavor on the sound principles of student fellowship contained in the original consti- tution and under the leadership of its president, William Knechf, Delta Pi Epsilon has continued to uphold the ideals embodied in its motto— Honor, Duty, and Justice. DELTA PI EPSILON DELTA PI EPSILON members are anxious to make returns on their sale of Inter-Frat Ball tickets as Herb Walters accepts money from Gerry Cosfen and Monte Maschietto. C. ond F.

The Villanova Chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers is composed of mostly Juniors and Seniors, since it is in the latter part of their col- lege career that these men choose the specific field of engineering they wish to pursue. This year a ma- jority of the students attended the Annual Conven- tion of the A.S.M.E. held in the Statler Hotel in New York. In addition to monthly meetings where tech- nical Aims, guest speakers, and members of the Engineering Faculty deliver important addresses, the organization has sponsored several field trips to nearby industries which included the Westinghouse Turbine Plant at Lester, Pennsylvania. NO LABS SCHEDULED for today, so the A.S.M.E. offi- cers seize upon the opportunity to meet and lay the groundwork for one of the society’s future operations.

This year is a bright one for Villanova’s student branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engi- neering. Aside from the many field trips and lectures arranged by this society, the senior members were guests on December 11, 1950, of The Engineers’ Club of Philadelphia at a dinner followed by an interesting talk on ‘‘Training an Engineer That Industry Wants to Hire. It was announced at the November meeting of the local student group at which Mr. C. Y. Veinott, Vice-President of District 2 (A.I.E.E.), was the prin- cipal speaker, that the annual A.I.E.E. prize paper competition would be held at Villanova on April 27th and 28th. Students representing twenty-five colleges and universities competed by presenting technical papers. The activities of the society greatly aid the mem- bers in attaining the goal they seek, that of becoming well-rounded professional men. As part of the periodic meetings of the group, this objective is further met by the guest speakers, technical films, and timely discussions from authorities in the field. A.I.E.E. WHEN OFFICERS MEET: A.I.E.E. officers C. Devenny, Chairman; J. Currie, Vice Chairman; J. Kleschick, Secretary; and M.

The students of the Civil Engineering School of Villonova point with pride to their chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers. One of the most interesting facets of their endeavor lies in their em- phasis on practical, first-hand study of examples of civil engineering in the Philadelphia area. Talks by various experts in the profession, and field trips to local sites of Civil Engineering accomplish- ments are an integral part of the life of an ASCE member. A.S.C.E. GROUP II ROW 1: 0.

Founded only four years ago, the Accounting So- ciety has already become a highly active campus organization. To keep its accounting majors abreast of modern business trends, the club has not only established a library, but each of their regular monthly meetings features guest speakers from lead- ing industrial and accounting firms. The society also makes it possible for its seniors to take the American Institute of Accountants Exam- ination, the successful results of which assist them in securing worthwhile positions. The popularity of their annual banquet testifies to both the business and social success of this society. ACCOUNTING SOCIETY GROUP II ROW 1: E. Renchatii, D. MtConnay, A. Clay, Mr. limalota, V.

ELECTION RETURNS in and counted, the successful candidates for office in the newly-formed Marketing Club pose smilingly for a victory picture. First row arc Guy Matteo, Executive Chairman; Bert Sellier, President; Warren McDermott, Treasurer. Second row: are Dick Hartman, Vice-President, and Tony Tranelli, Secretary. The student Marketing Club on campus was organ- ized under the direction of the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Marketing Association. Due to the large increase of Marketing majors over the recent years, it was deemed feasible to incorporate such an organization in order that the men would be kept abreast of the latest developments in their prospec- tive field. As a function of the national organization, the student component is accorded the same privi- leges which accrue to the members of the Philadel- phia Chapter. Student members are able to keep informed on the latest news from the Marketing world as subscribers to the Marketing Journal. Guest speakers at monthly meetings are authorities in the Marketing field who impart timely information. Ca- reer advice and placement services are at the dis- posal of the student members together with a number of technical films pertinent to the business field. The club is under the guidance of Father Gordon, its Moderator, and was organized by the untiring efforts of its Student Executive Chairman, Guido Mattco. MARCHING BAND DRUM MAJOR of the Blue and White Band is Lou Havens. Perhaps the most popular of Villanova’s extra- curricular groups is the Marching Band, best remem- bered by most Villanovans for its neat half-time formations and the stirring tempo of its seventy-odd instruments. Last season the Band was on hand for the opening game with Duquesne and the Kentucky clash at Franklin Field. At the latter the band was part of a combined display of Villanova talent which utilized the precision of the NROTC’s drill team to draw strong applause from both stands. Besides the home games, however, the Band keeps busy with its road trips to any games not too far out of range. Avid fans who went to the Georgetown game will recall the unique maneuvering of the band there. At Boston, too, the band left an impression with its expanding and contracting B-C, and an expert rendition of the home squad's “For Boston. There is a lot more, however, to the Marching Band than any spectator sees on the football field. From the top brass (Father Handran, Moderator; Mr. Thiel, Conductor) down, through all the stages of conception and organization, ensemble, and march- ing drill, hours of thought and labor are poured into the finished product which appears at half-time. Before registration, and during every hour after- wards that can be gleaned from the demands of the studies, the band works feverishly, polishing the rough spots to the smooth brilliance which marks the Band as a unit of which any Villanovan may be proud. V FOR VICTORY: the band stands in formation and searches for the music while arrogant White-caps herd the frosh off the Field prior to Villanova’s win over Duquesne.

SITTING THIS ONE OUT, the Marching Band follows Father Handran as he leads them through a selection of Irish songs in honor of Ambassador Hearne, re- cipient of an honorary degree at a fall convocation. “SQUADS LEFT! commands the racoon-coated spec- tator who attempted to become band leader-for-a- day. Nevertheless, his orders were disregarded and the high-stepping men in blue marched straight ahead. HAPPY HARMONY forms the keynote for this duet with Morris Green, featured Glee Club soloist, and Joan Barrett, an Immaculata College girl who added her talents to the group during concert season. VILLANOVA'S MUSIC MAKERS double in brass on gridiron turf and mellower tones on concert stage boards. Members shown in the picture above form the major portion of both Marching Band, popular at football games, and the Concert Band of winter and spring renown. This was Father Handran's last public appearance with his group before leaving for Naval service. He arranged for spring concerts to be held as usual and appointed Tom Pasha to direct the Band and Bill Miller to take over his spot leading the Glee Club. FATHER HANDRAN led the Bond and Glee Club as Moderator before his return to the service at the end of the fall semester. He's now Lieutenant Commander Ralph Handran, United States Navy. COMBINED CONCERT BAND THE COMBINED CONCERT by Band and Glee Club highlighted the first semester's social calendar. The Glee Club faced the Band to add to the tonal quality of group performance for the student body. Music is on integral part of a culture, and the extent to which a culture's music is developed is very often an indication of the development of the culture itself. At Villanova, it is the function of the Sym- phonic Band and Glee Club to encourage and main- tain an interest in music on the campus, and it per- forms this function entertainingly through its annual schedule of concerts. This schedule has in past years taken the combined Band and Glee Club to various girls' colleges in the neighborhood and to distant points on occasional concert tours. Since there is no music department in the educa- tional curricula of the college, members of the con- cert band are required to have previous experience demonstrative of their musical ability. As for the Glee Club, the only requirements are a good voice and a lively interest. With this material it is the duty of the moderator, Rev. Ralph E. Handron to construct the integrated unit which appears under the title of the combined Band and Glee Club. LIFTING UP THEIR VOICES members of the Glee Club present songs from their repertoire of popular and semi-classical melodies. With the Concert Band, the Glee Club gives recitals at many colleges and par- ishes of the Philadelphia area. Though their trained voices send forth the best in any selection, the Glee Club excels in their rendition of a medley of College songs. They end each concert by singing the Villa- nova Alma Mater with feeling that has brought a tear to more than one listener's eye. AND GLEE CLUB bring the news and their views in the world of sports. “ALL RIGHT, LOUIE, drop the gunV' Fuzzy Ferraro tells the gang who's boss. The fellows following the lets BE SERIOUS. Chic!

ANOTHER TED HUSING? Tom Dick says a few words before playing a record on this informal record pro- gram. Bob Petlersen is the engineer. Radio has become, in the past thirty years, one of the larger mediums of presenting information and entertainment in this country. To meet the interest in this field, students, backed by tho administration, began building a radio station on campus. WVIL today sending programs out to campus listeners is a tribute to the men who have contributed to its growth. WVIL began as an idea in the fall of 1947. With the sanction of the administration, students of the Engineering Department constructed a transmitting set. The unit was set up in a tiny room in Austin Hall. There, engineers, announcers, and producers, working in cramped quarters, were able to broad- cast news, sports, plays, and musical programs. The results of that year were enough to convince the college of student interest. The next year WVIL blossomed out into three rooms: two studios, and a control room. New equipment added to the scope of programs. Weekly plays highlighted the numer- ous live shows that originated in the studios. However, the task was not easy. During the first semester this year, broadcasting was curtailed be- cause of the loss of necessary equipment. When the equipment arrived the “radio voice of Villanova College was back on the air. The technical department is only one side of the work. Writers and directors spend hours planning a full schedule of programs for WVIL. Announcers, actors, disc jockeys find that time is of the essence in radio as they dash to the station for their shows. The entire staff strives toward the goal they have set, to present “the best in campus listening. LET’S SPIN THIS Dorsey platter.” Announcers pick records from the selections offered in the station's library and write their scripts early each evening, preparing for another broadcasting night.

But those four issues repre- sent a continuous hustle” on the part of the editorial staff, and a steady hum of activity around the office in Mendel Hall basement. As one deadline ap- proaches, plans are laid to meet the next; as it passes, the stream of material to be read and re- written has already begun to come in. It takes sus- tained and intensive effort, but as each issue rolls off the presses, the feeling of the staff is universal: It was worth it. TOP BRASS of the Engineer, Father Vrana, Moder- ator, and Editor-in-chief Bob O'Flynn look over the newest issue. Below, the staff members check copy and pictures with extreme care on the eve of their quarterly deadline. LYNX THE MASTERPIECE in question seems to amuse Jim Griffin, Bob Quinn, and Jack Muratori although Al Edmundowicz, Editor Joe Daley, Skip Simmons, and Bob Beers doubt its literary value. Busy making plans for the next quarterly issue, Father McShea, Mod- erator, and Editor-in-Chief Joseph Daley take time to view the Shakespearean Stage model in the Library. With the tenacity common to its namesake, the Lynx has finally triumphed over the many difficulties which plague all aspiring young magazines. In just three years under the critical eyes of Father John J. McShea, it has grown from an ambitious dream to a most successful reality. Voicing the creative abilities of the students, this publication puts forth a quarterly resplendent with original stories, poems, and varied articles. Further enjoyment is afforded by the presence of many works of art, ranging from delicate etchings to modernistic extravaganzas. It is not difficult to sec why demand for the Lynx is constantly increasing. CIRCULATION MANAGERS Al Edmundowicz and Skip Simmons discuss ideas which should result in wider and faster distribution of the Lynx. Perhaps their latest plan will put the magazine on sale in the Pie Shop. PLAGIARISM seems possible as Bob Quinn, Smoky Beers, and Jim Griffin brouse through the professional periodicals. Finishing touches are added by Jack Muratori, to one of his short stories, lower right, as Joe Daley looks on critically. THE LEADING CAMPUS WEEKLY’ The Villanovan is the weekly campus publication and the product of a large staff of writers, reporters, and editors. Tuesday is circulation day when most of the stu- dents are seen clamoring for their copy of the paper full of its stories pertaining to campus life and activity. This herald of student affairs originates in the base- ment of the Commerce and Finance building, where each Thursday the staff is engaged in meeting dead- lines for the publisher. The paper offers a complete coverage of sports events, religious activities, ad- ministrative procedures, social events, and timely editorials of immediate interest to all Villanovans. The Editor and Managing Editor devise the paper's make-up each week, allowing for feature articles, advertising space, and special columns for last- minute announcements. It is then the task of re- porters to cover their designated assignments and submit their stories for the Copy Editor to read. All this work is coordinated with the activity of the photography staff, who take appropriate pictures for the specified articles and the paper in rough form is then delivered to the publisher to be set in type. The evening before it goes to press, the editors consoli- date their efforts wholeheartedly. JOURNALISTIC TRADITIONS demand that editors rise from the ranks of cub reporters to gain necessary experience. Frank Gobes, Villanovan Editor-in-Chief, is no exception to the rule. After proving his ability as a Freshman covering routine assignments, Frank became Managing Editor while a Sophomore, and in his Senior year filled the top staff position. A difficult editor to please, he mirrored high standards and willingness to experiment in a highly-rated Vil- lanovan this year. WHEELS ON THE STAFF donned coats and a variety of ties just for this occa- sion. Striking those standing poses are Piazzolia and Skowron, Circulation Managers; Cooney, Sports Editor; Grif- fin, Feature Editor; and Glavin, News Editor. Seated are Pasha, Copy Boy and Feature Writer; Editor - in - chief G o b e s ; Managing Editor Gallagher; Gallo, Sports Editor; and Copy Editor Muratori, who mistook this picture for a Chesterfield mildness test.

EVERYONE GETS INTO THE ACT on the yearbook staff. All the talent amassed for the picture above v ere the writers, photographers, artists, and business agents whose work is shown on the pages of this publication. On the day before final deadline As- sistant Editor Bill Lohr and Editor Ray MacWilliams, in white shirts, check over pictures for the approval of the staff who are looking over the editors' shoul- ders. The picture above, incidentally, received unani- mous approval from the group. ARTISTS NOT AT WORK—an unusual pose for Belle Air art staffers, top picture. But there's no mistaking Bill Shilling, Bob Beers, Dick Reinhart, and Bill Lohr, as the men whose creative ability designed divider pages and sketches for the book. YEARBOOK PHOTOGS relied on the man from Zam- sky's to take this staff shot. Photo Editor Jake Ervin, seated, and his lensmen, Bob Gorman, Don Cala- brese, Pete Coll, Harry Papaian, and Courtney Flem- ing were otherwise on-the-spot for Belle Air work. BELLE AIR 1951 The Belle Air Staff consists of the Editorial Board ond various related staffs under the guidance of the faculty moderators. Rev. Daniel P. Falvey, O.S.A., and Rev. Robert M. Sullivan, O.S.A. The Editor-in- Chief supervises and directs all yearbook activity with the assistance of nine other editors. The first step in the compilation of a yearbook is the selection of a suitable theme. Each year this task presents a new problem since the theme must lend itself to a balanced integration of academic activity and student life. Having deliberated on a variety of arrangements, the Editor, in conjunction with Father Falvey, chose as a theme the constituents of a Villanova Education: Veritas, Unitas, Caritas. Proceeding from this point, a tenative plan of each section of the book is proposed to the publishers around which they draw up a dummy during the summer preceeding publication. When school begins in September, the Belle Air office in Mendel Hall be- comes a veritable beehive of activity as the editors start a full-time program of yearbook production to conform with the deadlines stipulated by the pub- lisher. The Sports, Photography, and College Editors pre- pare and assign work to their staffs, as the Managing and Assistant Editors conduct research pertinent to the particular sections of the book. Writing assign- ments are made to members of the Sports and Col- RAY MAC WILLIAMS shows little of the strain from the pace-that-kills led by Belle Air Editor-in-Chief. Ray began a year ago, supervising long working hours, frustrating details, and new wor- ries that cropped up almost hourly and had to be overcome in producing this new edition of the Belle Air, right on schedule.

And the Art Staff begins to design and execute the divider pages. During the week following the Thanksgiving recess most of the written material for the first half of the book is completed, and the Copy Editor checks its content, making necessary corrections and revisions. The Copy Staff types the write-ups on manuscript paper after they have been approved by Father Sullivan. Photographs, body copy, and captions are processed by the Editor and sent to the publisher in time for the Pre-ChrisJmas deadline. Galley proof sheets begin to arrive early in January indicating that the yearbook is taking form. The sheets are edited and returned for final reproduction.

LARRY MURPHY APPEARS to be pleading with the Countess Gavotsky to believe that he loves Kitty. The Countess goes right on with her big plans to snare this valuable social and financial asset, however. Bob Resnick and Jim Clarkin have many other riotous encounters before the final curtain. THE LAST SCENE of the first act opened with the spec- tacular ballroom setting that left most of the specta- tors gasping. Colorful costumes and the lilting music of the Midnight Waltz sont partners whirling round the stage in a dazzling display to top Mrs. Murphy's society debut. Lavish is the word which best describes Piper Heidsieck '98, Turf and Tinsel’s production of last season. Presented with all the color and pageantry of a broadway extravaganza, the club's third annual production lived up to the advance reports of its abilities. Practically a one-man show, the book, music, and lyrics were the work of one talented man, Robert M. Whelan, co-mentor of the club. Together with George Wallace Noake, choreographer and production super- visor, Mr. Whelan turned out another memorable score which left the audience humming and the cam- pus whistling for the remaining weeks of the term. Laid at the turn of the last and very fashionable century, the plot concerned the efforts of one Mrs. Murphy, ex-Brooklynite, to establish a firm social footing on our own Main Line, which was just as tough a nut to ciack then as it is now. The doting lady’s efforts to marry her son to a supposedly wealthy countess are thwarted by the son’s love for madam’s new secretary. A trans-continental chase for the countess with matrimony for son Larry in Momma’s eye results in the exposure of the countess as a jewel thief, with Larry marrying the secretary, who turns out to be a real countess. This type of thing has oft been done before, but Turf and Tinsel's colorful and extravagant presenta- tion glossed over the whole in successful fashion. The breath-taking ballroom scene elicited sighs of approval from the audience, and there were several show-stoppers during the tune-filled evenings. Interest in this year’s production ran high with the announcement of the Salem witchcraft theme, and several scripts were submitted for Which Is Witch, THE THREE WIERD SIS- TERS, Loo, Soo, and Boo, are here seen in the persons of Paul Za- vodny, Joe Maiale, and Whitey LeBlanc. 06 S TINSEL THE MURPHYS POSE for a tintype. The family tree consists of son Larry, Jim Clarkin; Mrs. Murphy, Jack Kelly; and Mr. Murphy, Joe Dugan. THE WALTZ DUO from No Regrets, Richard Connors and Jack Redmond, were enthusiastically received by the audiences at every performance. LARRY AND KITTY are finally united, with Kitty show- ing up the phony Countess Gavotsky. Jim Clarkin and Herb Mathews portrayed the young lovers. PIPER HEIDSEICK ’98 THE GIRLS OF CHESTNUT HILL lend a helping hand to the girls of Villanova just before cur- tain time on opening night. AN OUTING AT THE BEACH doesn’t seem to please Kitty, Larry, and Murph as much as the Mrs. thought it would. THE SATISFIED FACES of the first nighters were the initial indication of another TNT hit. The marquee was an innovation for Piper-Heidsieck '98. A GLITTERING FINALE at the Cafe Le Paix in fabulous Paris provides an adequate setting for the dancing chorus. THE ALPINE OCTET: Leo Wolf, Phil Snyder, John Weglicki, Bud Kane, Brooks Ricca, Shy Raiken, Tom Clavin and Jim Caulfield. One of the most popular num- bers in the show, it was made up entirely of varsity athletes. the prospective title. In view of the unsettled man- power situation, however, the directors of the show shelved Which Is Witch in favor of a musical revue entitled Pardon the Expression. Given the usual elab- orate presentation, the original songs and dances were augmented by hilarious satires of this and that in the complicated, evcr-laughable world in which we live. Turf and Tinsel's worthy efforts to provide a schol- arship fund have been temporarily abandoned due to the rising costs of production and the ever-chang- ing world situation. It is hoped that these plans may be resumed as soon as possible, and the off-stage organization still flourishes with this objective in mind. Plans call for the establishment of a basic costume wardrobe starting with the current show. OOO LA LA! say the girls of the cancan chorus, one of the most difficult routines in the show.

Earliest in the season is that highlight of every second year man's life, the Sophomore Cotillion. The Hobo Hop, held just before the Christmas Holidays, was an innovation this year. No coats or ties were permitted and most of the Villanovans came in true hobo attire, with their dates arrayed in Ozarkian garb. The Post-Lenten season opened socially with the annual Inter-Frat Ball. All the fraternities on campus cooperated in making this affair the attractive success it was. The final informal affair of the year came right in the middle of hectic Junior Week. It was the Blazer Ball, and the Juniors got their big chance to sport their new “Blazers en masse. REDS COLETTA and his dale relax al an informal dance. THE ENGINEER'S OWL, opposite page, top, stares silently down upon two couples relaxing between dances at the Owl Hop. In contrast to this, opposite page, below, are several scenes from one of the first old-clothes dances given at Villanova. Under the Chairmanship of Joe Hall, the Hobo Hop outlawed the use of jackets or ties, and among other novel innovations, jailed those people who were caught sitting-out square dances. PRISONERS OF LOVE perhaps, but the lovely ladies below are being brought to jail for violations of various rules imposed by the Hobo Hop Sheriffs. AUTUMN, including corn stalks, a har- vest moon, and the Villanovans' soft music served as a theme which pleased everyone at the very successful Sopho- more Cotillion. JUST A FEW HOBOS who crowded into the Field House to prove the popularity of a very informal dance. Proceeds went towards Operation Yule's Christ- mas Party. JUNIOR WEEK The various Junior Week activities were planned and executed with an enthusiasm, energy, and suc- cess by the Class of 1951 that may well be emulated by future classes. Mother's Day, the first event on the program, broke all traditions in that the sun was actually soon on that usually stormy day. The mothers enjoyed themselves thoroughly and com- plained only of the shortness of their stay. The Band Concert, the Blazer Ball, and the newly initiated intramural track meet occupied the middle of the week in their respective order. All events were very well attended and considered successful by the participants and the audience. The Junior Prom, which is open to the entire school, was a gala affair which saw the Field House trans- formed into a luxurious Southern mansion complete with formal gardens, butlers and majestic columns. The music as provided by Tony Pastor, and his or- chestra, was acclaimed by everyone present. The Dinner Dance, held in the Benjamin Franklin Hotel, was a fitting climax to one of the most spectac- ular and enjoyable Junior Weeks ever to be pre- sented at Villanova. This was the largest project ever attempted by this class and its success was well attested by the commendation of the results by the many faculty members present at the Dinner Dance. MOTHER'S DAY SERVICES marked the beginning of Junior Week. The Juniors and their Mothers are shown entering the chapel for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and address of welcome by the College President, Very Rev. Father Maguire. BRUNCH was served in the monastery refectory and student dining room following opening services in the chapel. The traditional “tree planting” ceremony was another highlight of the day's activity. m ■ FATHER THOMAS P. PURCELL, our Class Moderator, is shown at the Communion rail with Class President George Shus- ter, as we received the Holy Eucharist with our Mothers. A capacity turnout for Mother's Day Mass set a precedent for the First function of Junior Week. THE CRYSTAL BALLROOM of the Ben- jamin Franklin Hotel was the locale of a very successful Dinner-Dance. Mem- bers of the College Administration and clerical faculty were guests of the Junior Class at the head table. A HAPPY ENDING to the week's activ- ity was experienced by those attending the Dinner-Dance. Shown at the center section of the head table are: Father Purcell, Father Krupa, Father Grimes, Father Kropp, Father Sullivan, and Din- ner-Dance Chairman Frank Pitocchelli, Junior Week Chairman George Keenley, and Mother's Day Chairman Jay Mur- phy. THE ELABORATE ENTRANCE and decorated lobby pro- vided an effective pathway to the plantation scene within tho Field House, where the lilting music of Blue Barron provided a gay setting for the entire evening. YEARBOOK EDITOR Raphael MacWilliams will not talk shop, as he ovoids questions on yearbook produc- tion by George Keenly, Junior Week Chairman. Father McKee, College Vice-President, and Father Purcell, Class Moderator, sympathize with his stand in the JUNIOR CLASS PRESIDENT George Schuster and Presi- dent-elect of the Senior Class Joseph Rugo and dates, pause at the punch table with Frank J. Pitocchelli, Stu- dent Representative of the Alumni Board of Governors. M SS AND MRS. PHILADELPHIA together with Blue Barron and Oscar Neufeld constituted a panel of judges to select the Prom Queen. A contest was conducted in the Villanovan several weeks before the dance and final selection was made by this board. One of the contend- ers is shown below and the winner, Ann Touey, appears at the right. PROM CHAIRMAN Herb Mathews takes time out to relax during a busy evening at the dance. Jay Murphy, Mother’s Day Chairman, remarks about the successful affair. Barry Gibbons, Yearbook and Newspaper Business Manager, is seen at left during the last dance which ended a memorable evening at the Prom. THE JUNIOR PROM Color was the keynote; gaiety filled the air. As the Promgoers entered the Field House a spectacle previously unequalled at Villanova dances greeted them. From the formal gardens in the Lobby to the kaleidoscopic fountain in the center of the dance floor, Springtime in Dixie created an appropriate scene for the smooth music of Blue Baron's Orchestra, which was silhouetted against the facade of a stately colonial mansion. A record attendance of over six hundred couples enjoyed the climactic evening of Junior Week in an atmosphere reminiscent of an Ante-Bellum Ball. THE LAUGHING JACK-IN-THE-BOX centerpiece caught the gaiety of the Mardi Gras theme. THE BELLE AIR BALL brings both seniors and their tuxes out of moth balls each year for the official senior promenade. The usually drab Field House took on all the magic and merriment of the Mardi Gras for this Senior Dance. Among those in attend- ance from the yearbook staff were Jack Gibbons, Circulation Manager; John Ervin, Photography Editor; and Paul Jannuzzo, Sports Editor, befow. MARDI CRAS bound are those couples in front of the Field House. A slight pause in the lobby to sign program books and on to the dance. THE BELLE Tony Pastor's music echoed throughout the Field House at the Belle Air Ball, the first formal dance of the 1950 fall season. The usually drab interior of the colossal auditorium was transformed into a colorful setting for a Mardi Gras Ball. Rex and Regina, King and Queen of the Mardi Gras, presided over the soiree. Thousands of streamers cascaded from three chandeliers attached to the ceiling. Amusing floats lined the walls of the gym, and a gigantic Jack-in- the Box nodded his approval of the festivities from his box in the center of the dance floor. Frank Teti and his Blue Notes played during intermissions in the enjoyable manner so that the merrymakers might dance on and on till the strains of Good Night, Sweetheart signalled the end of a memorable evening. SITTING ONE OUT, a few couples stop to renew old acquaintances and plan to get together later on. Neighboring girls’ colleges are well represented as usual, with the girls' lovely gowns adding a touch of elegance to the Ballroom. “TICKETS, PLEASE, calls the Major-domo in charge of admission to the Mardi Gras. The young lady gets a souvenir program and her date is stamped for future recognition. This is the first step towards a grand evening. LASTING MEMORIES FATHER O'LEARY, of the Engineering Depart- ment, takes time out to attend the Senior Prom. His subtle remarks and his soft brogue seem to provoke a smile of pleasure from the listeners. DEADLINES FORGOTTEN for the evening, Belle Air Edilor-in-Chief Ray MacWilliams with Frances Harl, College Editor Frank Pitocchelli with Janet Pcrotta, and Business Manager Barry Gibbons with Ruth McShano take time out from the dance to pose for the photog- rapher. IN THE “BLUE ROOM pretzels, potato chips, and soft drinks are served as the soft music of Tony Pastor swirls in the background. This is the pause that re- freshes as the couples leave the crowded dance floor to the more crowded “Blue Room. the belle air staff Raphael J. MacWilliams D.
