UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON
ALUMNUS A magazine which oeeks to promote the interest of the University of Dayton and to foster among the Alumni a sentiment of regard for one another and attachment to their Alma Mater.
VOLUME IV
OCTOBER, 1931
NUMBER 1
U of D Class Organization EALIZING that in all alumni organizations the class is the most important unit with the class secretary acting as the executive office and that, as our U of D Alumni Association under the re-organization dates back only to 1928, most of our U of D classes have not been organized, the Board of Directors of the Alumni Association has appointed the class secretaries and assistants named on Page 2 of this issue, to hold office until the class is brought together for a Commencement Reunion meeting at which time the election of class officers can be held. The class represents the natural nucleus about which general university and alumni interest grows. Unified in time and organization, the class group is widely distributed geograph-. ically, financially, and professionally. It is the alumni body in the miniature. At most universities the class secretary is the executive officer of this unit. He is responsible for the organized life of the class. Although it is an extremely important office, as the strength of the class organization depends upon the secretary, it need not necessarily be burdensome. Active, direct participation and cooperation on the part of the other classmates is essential. You may perhaps be inclined to ask the question: Just who should be carried on your class rolls? The answer is: Every man who has ~ver been a member of the class as an undergraduate regardless of his graduation with the class or not, unless he specifically requests to be enrolled with some other class of U of D, with which he has also be~n connected, or has graduated from some other college. Graduates of the Prepara.tory Class of four years previous are considered members of the class. The assistant class secretary has been chosen from this Prep Class. To. the class secretary first are referred questions involving special class action or affecting class policy. The class secretary performs the duties of the executive officer in a highly autocratic organization. The class secretary's special function, as his title implies, is to gather, to compile, and to forward to the Alumni Office copies of all information about a classmate that comes from any source whatever, no matter how trivial-letters, notes, newspaper clippings (be sure to date them), announcements of marriages, births, d~aths, business cards, etc. The secretary mus arrange for class reunions, held at least every five years after graduation, or as often as desired.
It is usually well for the secretary of the class to send out at least two general letters every year, both asking for and imparting information. Of course, in years when a class is holding reunions, a special series of reunion notices is mailed in addition to the general class bulletins. The Alumnus should be kept supplied with class notes. No part of the a lumni magazine is more eagerly read, and nothing gives the impression of inefficiency so much as the absence of class notes. The Alumni Office at the University is open the year 'round. It is the official depository of all University official alumni records and biographical archives; it publishes all official biographical and other compilations; it maintains a list of all graduates and non-graduates. The Office maintains a card index up to date, alphabetical and by classes, of all living graduates and non-graduates with their addresses. The Alumni Office is always ready to help class secretaries in any way its services may be useful. The first result of good organization in a representative college class is the helpful, enriching bond which is thus provided for the class members themselves. Any organization which fosters these natural bonds of friendship and companionship is, by that very fact, accomplishing a purpose well worth while. A graduate class organization is of value in binding a group of p ersons together for their own good and their own pleasure. It also serves to bind these persons to their alma mater, the institution from which the class was born. In keeping alive the personal interest in the university of several thousand living graduates and former students, a prime question concerns the points of contact, the units by which the general loyalty is to be built up. The class is one of the most natural and most effective of such alumni units. It is not necessary to develop here at length the value to a university of alumni support. This value, financial and moral, probably seems so evident that it may be taken as an axiom. You are urged to cooperate at all times with your class secretary, helping him to extend the possibilities of the best fellowship and friendship, and in building up the loyalty and support to your University of Dayt<ffi, which, in turn. through the graduates an,a/'t heir influence, will make it an outstanding force in the continued progress and preservation of our nation.

Catnpus News Digest By Mason C. Benner, '32 Operating under a new theory of more cordially welcoming freshmen to the University this year, Freshman Day proven to be a genuine success. After a stirring tug of war, which the Sophs won in two pulls out of three, the Frosh were compelled to dig up a grave, made previous to the start of school, containing a list of penalties to be enacted during the course of the year. Also some of the more fresh freshmen were put through some laugh-provoking antics and were made to apologize profusely for their lack of etiquette. The night previous to the Dayton-Hanover game they were to parade f rom the down-town section of the city to the stadium, but rain seriou sly hampered this proceeding. However, between halves they put on a very creditable performance, singing songs and going through a drill routine . As an anti-climax the Freshman Welcome Ball took place on Tuesday evening October 20, at the Paramount Plaza Club. Under the able guidance of Lou Tschudi and his Soph committee, the dance was a huge su ccess. FRESHMAN DAY

The annual retreat for Catholic students at the University was h eld recently. Rev. Martin Mulligan, C. S .S. R., was the retreat master this year. He is from Lima, Ohio.

formerly presided over by Dr. Haas, namely, Physical Chemistry. Dr. Beck needs no introduction as he has been in the University faculty for many years. Father Francis Friedel, director of religious activities, called a "get-together" meeting of the three sodalities groups in the gymnasium. He reviewed briefly some of the enterprises planned for the coming year. He emphasized in particular his plans to interest Catholic students of the city of Dayton who are attending public high schools. In connection with the lectures to be given socials are to be arranged in which socialists will also take part. SODALISTS
The Dickman Rifles, the honorary military society for basic students, held its first meeting this year. About twenty of the sophomore class are members of the organization. Ten of last year's freshman class, who were members of the society, failed to return to school this year. It is planned to elect about twenty new members in the near future to bring the society up to minimum strength as required by the constitution. The society discussed briefly the plans for attending the competitive Pershing Rifles drill meet which will be held at Illinois University next spring. All members are enthusiastic about entering the Pershing contest again this year. This Dickman society took third place at the meet at Ohio State last spring. DICKMAN RIFLES
SOPHS The freshmen of Alumni Hall saw their ENTERTAIN first glimpse of social life when they were entertained by the Sophomore Class at the Hall. The purpose of the meeting was to create a more friendly relation between the two classes. Lou Tschudi, president of the Sophomore Class, addressed the freshmen and expressed his gratitude for the manner in which they accepted the initi·a tion and urged that the same program be administered to the new students next year. Entertainment was offered in the shape of songs and dances by the various upperclassmen. In order to diversify the evening several tables of bridge and euchre were · started and refreshments were served.
Since the beginning of the school year, several new faces have come into prominence on the campus and changes have been made in the administration of the halls. In Alumni Hall, Bro. Andrew Schratz is assisting "D'oc" Molz, the prefect, while Bro. Herman Brendel and Bro. John Perz take care of the upper floors. Bro. Andrew was principal of the commercial school at St. John the Baptist in New York before putitng in his appearance here. No elaboration is necessary upon the previous occupation of Bro. Brendel. Bro. Perz just ·arrived from Catholic University where he completed his doctorate. Across the campus in St. Joe's Hall, Bro. Fred has some new members. Bro. Tom Price is taking the place of Bro. Matt Haas until he returns from Pittsburgh University where he is finishing his doctorate. Bro. Andrew Weber, on e of last year's inhabitants, is taking charge of the third floor. Bro. John O'Grady, a recent importation from Purcell High School, will reign over the fourth floor. Bro. William Bellmer left for Catholic University in Washington where he is taking a post-graduate course in mathematics. Bro. Tom Jones was sent to St. Mary's High School in Pittsburgh, while Bro. Albert Wehrle is taking his place among the physics professors at Sioux City. DIRECTION CHANGES

U of D Represented at Convention
Rev. James R. O'Neill of St. Ignatius Parish, Chicago, Illinois, returned on September 19, 1931, from Belize, British Honduras, where he witnessed the terrific hurricans that killed more than a thousand persons. Father O'Neill relates how he met Brother John Jacoby, '08, leading fifty boys, students at St. John's College, ranging in age from twelve to seventeen years, through water ankle deep. Brother Jacoby asked the help of Father O'Neill and a Father Burns. By that time the water from the sea was above the knees and rising steadily. Nearby was a large burial vault used at the time of the yellow fever plague twenty years ago, sixty feet long and ten feet high, upon which Brother Jacoby and the two priests hoisted the boys, out of danger from the oncoming tidal wave. Brother Jacoby and Father O'Neill just got onto the vault when the wave struck. Father Burns was swept away but caught a bent palm tree and escaped drowning. After blowing terrifically for an hour, the second blow and the tidal wave died down and they led the boys into the city of Belize.
'l;:he Eighty-second Meeting of the American Chemical Society held at Buffalo, New York, August 31-September 4, 1931, was attended by Dr. William Wohlleben, S.M., who met the following graduate chemical engineers of the University of Dayton at the Convention: Ralph J. Wirshing, ' 16, representing the General Motors Research Laboratories, Detroit; John L. Crowley, '18, superintendent of the Thompson & Company,• paint and varnish manufacturers, Oakmont, Pennsylvania; Joseph J. Schaefer, ' 19, plant manager of the Rockford Varnish Company, Rockford, Illinois ; Emil H. Kessler, ' 20, director of Research and Standards Division of the Thresher Varnish Company, Dayton, Ohio; Leo F . Collins, '24, connected with the Detroit Edison Company; and Michael Moran, '29, research chemist with the Thresher Varnish Company. Mr. Wirshing presented a paper before the Paint and Varnish Division on "Automobile Coatings." Mr. Collins also presented a paper, illustrated with Ianterm slides, on "Determining Carbonate and H ydroxide in Boiler Waters." At a luncheon meeting held at the Statler Hotel, much cordiality prevailed and many of the incidents of campus and lab were revived. Some of the "dirt" which came to the surface for the first time (so it was thought, anyway) bordered on the sensational. The elder Crowley pronounced this the best feature of the entire convention. Greetings were extended by all to the absent members of the Chemistry Department.
