E DECLARE PRONOUNCE AND

DEFINE THAT THE MOST BLESSED VIRGIN MARY AT THE FIRST INSTANT OF HER CONCEPTION WAS PRESERVED IMMACULATE

FROM ALL STAIN OF ORIGINAL SIN 7



THE MARIAN YEAR The Blessed Virgin was preserved from the stain of original sin from the first moment of her conception. This doctrine is called the Immaculate Conception and it was proclaimed a doctrine of faith by Pius IX in 1854. This year we are celebrating the hundreth anniversary of this proclamation. All the children of Adam are born with this stain of sin, all except Mary, who was destined to be the Mother of God. It is quite fitting that this prerogative should be accorded to her because it is unthinkable that she who was chosen to be the Mother of the Conqueror of Satan should for a single moment be under the power of Satan. In the book of Genesis we read. "I will put enmity between thee (the serpent) and the woman ... she shall crush thy head." Basing themselves on Scripture and tradition theologians have reasoned to the truth of this dogma on which the Church has set the seal of infallibilty. Many masters such as Carducci, Falco, Montanes, Signorrelli, Holbein and others have represented the Immaculate Conception in art.

The City of Dayton

ll


Industry

Dayton is a city of industrial greatness. Some six hundred thirty-five plants distribute one thousand industrial products. The city has attained undisputed leadership in the production of many manufactured commodities and is the home of such notable industrial entities as the National Cash Register Company, rhe Frigidaire Division of General Motors Corporation, the Airtemp Division of Chrysler Corporation and many others. Dayton is known internationally as a center of precision industry. In no other city can more accurate work be clone, for thousands of highly skilled laborers make their homes in the metropolitan area. The city's advantageous location some fifty miles from the manufacturing center of the United States and fifty six miles from the nation's center of population gives it an outstanding commercial existence. Indeed, the city exports a larger proportion of its industrial wares tha n does Ohio as a whole.

Aviation Just over fifty years ago Orville and Wilbur Wright were drawn to the barren sand dunes of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, by reports of prevailing winds, which they hoped would keep their primitive heavier than air machine aloft. After much experimentation, they succeded in keeping the machine in flight for a few seconds at Kill Devil hill. In September of 1908, the brothers established a second record by remaining in the air for seventy-five minutes in an improved airplane. Thus the W rights authored " the supreme achievement of m an in the gaining of control over the natural conditions of his enviornment." Perhaps no other invention in histor y has so rapidly revolutionized life throughout the w orld. These men of unique initiative and genius resided in D ayton .

The people of Dayton have a cultural heritage in which they take warrantable pride. Among the finer community establishments is the Dayton Art Institute which exists for the pleasure of Daytonians and guests from the surrounding area. Each year there are some quarter million visitors to the Art Institute, each of whom shares in some measure the richness of its exhibits, the splendor of its structure and the stimulus of its varied activities. Those responsible for the administration of the Art Institute lend it a warm and friendly atmosphere which frequenters enjoy immeasurably.

Paul Lawrence Dunbar A m erican Po et

t re

Although the Art Institute represents the apogee of Dayton's cultural life, it does not represent its only aesthetic attainment. This is displayed by the existence of the popular Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, devoted to the presentation of the music of the masters, and the Leslie L. Diehl Municipal Shell for community band festivals. In addition, the fine Public Library and Museum attest to the high cultural interests of the city, whose citizens recognize that indeed "great art is an instant arrested in eternity."

A Few Words Concerning the City of Dayton from the Original Observation of the Place by a Frenchman Until the Year 1850

In 1751 a French officer ascended the Miami River and set down in his journal an account of buffalo feeding knee deep in waving grass along the river bottoms. The future Secretary of the Ohio Land Company passed through the area about the same time and in his letters to the East marveled at the wild beauty of the Miami Valley. Between 1754 and 1794 an occasional trapper or surveyor wandered along the banks of the Miami, but the land remained the domain of the fierce Indian tribe, who had given their name to the river. In 1794 General Anthony Wayne defeated a confederation of Indian princes at the Battle of Fallen Timbers and the power of the redman disappeared forever from the Ohio Country. Dayton was named in honor of General Johnathon Dayton, one of the prominent figures in the Ohio Land Company. The orginial settlement took place in the Spring of 1796. The town was established at the confluence of the Great Miami and two of its chief tributaries, the Stillwater and the Mad Rivers. It was hoped that the river would provide a source of power and an easy means of transportation. The first settlers moved up the Miami on barges, covering the sixty miles between Cincinnati and the site of their new homes in ten days. No sooner had they disembarked than several problems presented themselves. These included a quarrelsome colony of rattlesnakes, an equally unhospitable segment of the Indian population, and the natural obstinacy of the terrain. The last, the result of a certain amount of confusion on the part of the surveyors, who had designated three deep gullies as the main thoroughfares of the community.

Steele High School

j'.

However, by the time Ohio became a state in 1803 the Indians and rattlesnakes had departed and the gullies had been filled in. Dayton prospered as settlers poured into the new state and the founders' faith in the river was rewarded. It became the youthful settlement's greatest asset.

Old Train Station

Very few Americans received an extensive formal education before 1850 and Daytonians were no exception. Yet, literacy was high and there was great interest in current affairs. Newspapers were widely read. In 1850 Dayton was a prospering community of 50,000 served by two stable banks and a daily newspaper.

The progress of Dayton between 1810 and 1850 was dependent to a large extent on improvements in transportation. In 1818 conservative Daytonians were confident that there would never be enough travel between Dayton and Cincinnati to warrant the new weekly stagecoach. A generation later a similar thinkprocess kept the railroad out of Dayton. Wiser heads eventually prevailed and the railroad made a belated appearance in 1851.

Three names stand out in the early history of Dayton: Daniel Cooper, Benjamin Van Cleve, and Colonel Robert Patterson. Cooper played the role of entrepreneur and public benefactor. He erected no less than four mills, w hich served his business interests and at the same time facilitated the grinding of corn, one of the most arduous tasks of the pioneer household.

During the years between the first regular stagecoach run and the coming of the railroad, commerce was carried on largely by means of water transport. The river provided an easy means of transportation during the summer and autumn. But even so the river was unpredictable and by 1829 river traffic had been replaced by the newly constructed canal betw een D ayton and Newark.

. General Van Cleve represented the ideal FederaliSt. A cultured, intelligent individual, he had served as both soldier and scholar. In Dayton he taught s~hool and acted as postmaster and librarian. In addi~ton he found time to keep a valuable journal covermg a period of twenty-six years.

Today, over a century later, it is difficult for us to visualize the importance of canal traffic. Yet, in its day, the canal was considered a Herculean achievement in the development of transportation. It offered great advantages to those commuities it served.

. On~ of t he most impressive figures in Dayton's htstory ts that of the colorful Indian fighter, Colonel ~obert Patterson. Colonel Patterson settled in Dayton tn 1805 after a remarkable career as a frontier adventurer. He had suffered wounds in no less than ten engagements. The founder of Lexington, Kentucky, and one of the three original owners of Cincinnati, his p re~nce added to t he prestige of the young communxty.

Road travel had become quite agreeable in Ohio by 1830. Gravel was certainly an improvement over ordinary dirt and covered bridges provided a picturesque replacement for fords.

The girls that saw the Anderson Guards march out to join the Army of the Potomac had one eye on the soldiers and one on the spring styles. Their costumes were planned according to what RIKE AND PRUGH had to offer.

THE LAST WORDS of Marion Chester was to CHARGE! Under the circumstances it was perhaps good advice but the subscribers at 81 Jefferson Street DON'T CHARGE and those who buy from him get GOOD SHOES CHEAP Gentlemen's fine sewed and pegged boots to order. " ALLAN JEFFERS."

Dayton played a rather shamefaced role in the War of 1812, serving as the rallying point of a singularly unsuccessful military campaign. Indeed, the annals of the soldiery record few fiascos in arms the equal of Hull's invasion of Canada. The enigmatic figure of General Jonathan Hull has long puzzled historians. In the spring of 1813 volunteers poured into Dayton from every part of Ohio. They were to comprise one arm of a three pronged attack to be launched against the British in Canada. Six weeks of intensive training preceded the trek north, and (if we may inject supposition) in all likelihood, as the troops were billeted, some of the maneuvers carried them over the very ground on which the University of Dayton now stands. * On June fifth the First Ohio struck its tents. With flags unfurled, and to the accompaniment of fife and drum, the army, twenty-five hundred foot and horse, marched north, and alas, to ignominy. Near the Maumee River the Americans were confronted by a force of British and Indians of about half their number. At this point the aged Hull, who perhaps like the Spartan made his battle plans subject to the proper lunar conditions, promptly surrendered, before either side could loose a volley.

t路esident's Letter My dear Graduates : This past year, m y first year as President of the University of Dayton, has been all too short to satisfy the demands of my office and to meet each of you individually. I would have liked to do so. I cannot let this present opportunity p ass w it hou t writing a few words to you with the hope that it wi ll show my personal interest in each of you.

(Matthew XXXVIII : 19, 20). May I rather boldly paraphrase these words for you? Go teach all men; teach by example more than by word whatever you have learned at the U niversity of Dayton, not only academic, scientific or technical knowledge and skills, but the spiritual and the moral values of life so necessary for happiness here and hereafter, and behold your Alma Mater will be with you all days in spirit and in her p hilosophy of life and education even in the consummation of your lives. May the blessings of Almighty God follow you in every endeavor and in every situation of life; may His Heavenly Mother in this Marian Year which dedicates your graduation to Her, grant you that love for your fellowmen so necessary to bring peace and harmony in a divided world . May you tind mutual support and encouragement in each other so that your lives may be full of good deeds for time and eternity. Be true to and live your motto, Pm Deo et Patria - For God ttnd Country . Sincerely,

Steps were taken by the Council regarding the city civil defense needs and the group also had a hand in a drive to place a new lighting system in the stadium. Council members are for the most part directly elected to their positions, but all class presidents become associated with the group automatically. Jim Wilkerson was Council president. Bob Eilerman held the position of vice-president. The treasurer's and secretarial duties were handled by Pat Byrne and Katie Maroglou, respectively. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS

Life may as properly be called an art as any other, and the great incidents in it are no more to be considered as mere incidents than the severest members of a fine statue or a noble poem. Henry Fielding


As the creeping paralysis of standardization encroaches more and more upon our civilization, independent thinking becomes an increasingly rare commodity. The foremost responsibility of the University is to provide the intellectual leadership of the nation. To accomplish this, the mind must be logically directed toward truth. The goal of the Division of Liberal Arts is to produce the "Whole Man," a critical, thinking man; one able to evaluate facts and make his own decisions; a man who respects the law and is able to defend it; a man aware of his p ast, sensitive to his cultural and spiritual heritage, conscious of the problems of the present and capable of meeting the challenge of the future.

R ev. Edmund Rhodes, S.M. Dean of Arts

The Wisdom of Ancient Egypt Throughout history man has pondered the riddle his existence and the nature of his Creator. Denied the light of R ev elation, the Ancients groped toward the Truth as best they could. Their conception of the divine took the fo rm of many gods. Sometimes they enrolled wisdom among the ~ods. Although there is always a tendency in the. world to deify wisdom, the end of true wisdom is God.

tO/

Egypt was the cradle of civilization. A great culture flourished along the banks of the Nile five thousand years ag.o. An essentially religious people much concerned with the after-life, the Egyptians arrived at an ethical though primitive concept of God.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB

Delta Eta chapter of Phi Alpha Theta, national honorary history fraternity, maintains exceptionally high scholastic standards for membership eligibility. This select body has as its end the enrichment of interest in history. It is the belief of the group that only through the realization that the present is inextricably interwoven with the past and the recognition •of the "grey record" of history can the world pen the obituary of ultra-nationalism and other barriers to permanent world peace. Officers included Lawrence Hussman, president, Robert Wood, Berteli Shattock and Marge Hegedus.

Fostering greater affinity between America and the other nations of the globe is the manifest design of U.D.'s International Relations Club. Thus this year's group launched a series of lectures on world affairs designed to stay certain widespread prejudices. President of the club was Jim Wilkerson. John Caron, Joseph Oths and Marian Barrett were the other officers advised by Professor Erving E. Beauregard. The I.R.C. was founded by Father Charles Preisinger, S.M., in 1928 in conjunction with the Carnegie Institute for Peace. 39

Campus Gazette ... Personality Plus Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Ed Flynn, the bi-weekly U.D. News strove to present and interpret both campus and pertinent external news in a dynamic fashion. The purpose of the publication is to keep the student body informed in 路 regard to events of local, national, and international significance with a view towards improving the students' cognizance of vital issues. Secondly, the U.D. N ews featured wide sports coverage under the direction of Sport Editor John Hussong and columnist Larry Hussman. The sports staff, in conjunction with the Student Council, conducted a vigorous campaign to alleviate the student seating problem at basketball games in the Fieldhouse. The social season was captured in print by editor Marge Hegedus, Joanne Stueve, and a staff of capable assistants. Robert Wood and Bernard Westbrock contributed a comprehensive column, and Jack Rice served as director of the feature page. Once more in his capacity of moderator for the U .D. N ews was Brother George F. Kohles, S.M. associate professor of English and head of the journalism department.

It is indeed desirable that students of a Catholic university possess a deep religious consciousness. Today's quest for peace will be crowned with attainment only if such a spiritual awareness pervades all of society. On the U.D. campus exist three organizations dedicated to the development of an inspired Catholic citizenry.

The Mariology Club was formed by Father Lawrence Monheim, S.M., for the purpose of guiding interested students in their studies of the Blessed Virgin. Various aspects of the beliefs concerning Mary are discussed at regular meetings. This year's officers included Joseph Kearns, president; Dorothy Foley, vice-

president; Jacquelin Macbeth, treasurer; and Thomas Deger, secretary. The National Federation of Catholic College Students maintains a branch on campus. The N.F.C.C.S. strives for greater unity among Catholic students. Anne Lyons and Bill Thesing were this year's delegates. The Catholic Action Section was headed by Tony Krystofik and Jim Synk. The student government division was directed by Bob Schuhmann and Phillip Jones. Patricia Russell was regional secretary. The Catholic Students Mission Crusade, C.S.M.C., conducts periodic meetings for the purpose of aiding the missions through prayer, study, and work.

Journal Boasts Lon The oldest of campus publications is the Exponent, a literary magazine inaugurated in 1903. It is also one of the most popular. The venerable periodical provides a practical outlet for the budding literary artist and gives excellent creative experience. Variety is the Exponent keynote. It features essays, short stories, verse, editorials, society columns, an education section and humorous articles. Editor-in-chief for the year was Jack Austin Rice, known for his sanguinary war tales and his poignant political editorials. Elizabeth McAdam had charge of the poetry page, Anne Flynn edited Coed's Corner and Joe Oths and Katie Maroglou set forth Hill Top Chatter.

United and activated through a common interest in mental phenomona, U.D.'s Psychology Club holds regular assemblies, sponsors guest lecturers and conducts field trips to points of interest to the modern psychologist. Pertinent movies are shown at all of the meetings. The group constitutes one of the newer campus organizations, having been created in September of 1953 largely through the efforts of its moderator, Father Raymond Roesch, S.M. Chief project for the year was a Christmas visit to patients at the State Hospital. Barbara Armstrong served as the first president of the Psychology Club. Stephen Stewart was vicepresident. Other officers included Robert Annesser, treasurer, and Patricia Ransom, secretary.

Martial Society Ripe in Tradition Visible evidence of the enthusiastic military spirit on campus, the Pershing Rifles is an organization of students who wish to indulge their natural inclination towards things military. It is the aim of this distinguished group to acquaint its members with the ancient art of soldiery and to develop a proper respect for the martial profession. To foster this ideal the Pershing Rifles not only provides instruction but also requires intensive drill exercises to develop parade ground proficiency.

As a result, members are expert at dress parade maneuvers. One of the lesser known activities of this group is provision of squads for Homecoming Parades, flag raising and other formal city functions. Sponsorship of the annual Christmas Ball is another P. R. accomplishment. Company Commander was Cadet Captain George Van Schaik; administrative officer, Cadet 1st Lt. Richard Weidner; executive officer, Cadet 1st Lt. Ralph Ryan.

Blades Sharp on Drill Field, Gay tn Ballroom The designation of U.D.'s top military organization as the Scabbard and Blade is indeed anachronistic. Actually, the organization was founded to elevate the standards of modern military education in American colleges and to encourage the essential qualities of efficient junior officers for today's needs. The campus branch of the national society had its inception in 1949.

After initiation of junior members in November, the society engaged in several activities, chief among which was sponsorship of the yearly Military Ball in the spring. The group also sent representatives to the National Convention held in Cincinnati, Ohio. Officers for the year included Harold Okita, president; Howard Hee, vice president; George Van Shaik, secretary; and Richard Weidner, treasurer. Scabbard and Blade was moderated by Captain Theodore Llana.


Art Club Publicity chairman R. J. Schierloh has refuted the charge of some unthinking persons, to wit: that the Art Club was founded in order that its members might have their collective portrait appear in the Daytonian. About the middle of April we stopped by the Art Institute and looked Schierloh up. They told us we would find him meditating in the cloister. We did and he was. Considering our previous experience with artists, we thought Schierloh braved our interruption rather well. .. ''I'm glad you stopped around," he began gravely. "There's been a lot of talk going around about the Art Club, some of it pretty cockeyed. In the first place the Art Club is as much a part of the University as any organization on campus. The Mechanical Engineers are organized. There's a Society for the Advancement of Capital or something like that. Why not路 an Art Club?" It was hard to answer that kind of logic. Nor did he give us a chance. "The trouble is that very few people on campus are aware that there is a Fine Arts Department associated with the University; and (this emphatically) one of the most important functions of our organization is to let the rest of the student body know what we artists are doing and thinking. Artists are thinking these days, you know." We hadn't given it much thought but it gave us a warm feeling to hear him say so. "Come on along. We've got an exhibit here from Indiana University. T)le very latest thinking." With that he jumped up, waved us to follow, and started off with long strides. First Row: William Lauderman- Armand Martino- Kay De Vol -George Heir.

We soon found ourselves breathing hard in our efforts to match our guide's pace. The rapidity of our movement did not, however, prevent Schierloh from rattling on. "Sure we have parties. Who doesn't? But that isn't all we do. Just last week we went up to Toledo to see the Van Gogh Exhibition. Wonderful things! A genius, a rare spirit!" The Indiana University Exhibit proved Schierloh's point on "new thinking. " It made us feel small and sterile to be in the presence of so much thinking. The exhibit included water colors, oil paintings, pieces of sculpture, wood cuts, and two mobiles. Mobiles are our particular weakness. A patronizing smile played on Schierloh's face as he watched us exhaust our already overtaxed lungs in an effort to make one of them move. He soon set us straight. "It's the design that counts, you know." We avoided his eyes. "Now here's an interesting item, a painting on a burlap sack. Real burlap. You can feel it, if you like. Extraordinary thing! Some interesting water colors here too, don't you think?"

We felt we had better change the direction of the conversation while we could. For some minutes we had been conscious of distant music, which we had finally identified as Cavalleria Rusticana. We began to edge toward the Cavalleria feeling that at least in its presence the trend of thought would not be beyond us. The observant Schierloh perceived our intention. His smile broadened. "It's lunch hour, you know. We always listen to music during lunch hour." He led us into the main gallery. In one corner of the room a number of people were gathered around a record player. Schierloh seemed pleased and proceeded to pose another of his pointed and quite unanswerable questions. "How many music students look at paintings during their lunch hour? Yes indeed, we have a remarkable group out here. Some odd ducks too. One fellow paints nothing but horses. You know ... big ones, little ones, prancing horses, galloping horses. There are any number of situations in which you can use a horse. I imagine he's pretty fond of them." We thought he probably was.

At this point the music stopped for the inevitable six seconds b e t w e e n records. When it resumed the change in mood was striking. The hot blooded Cavalleria had given way to what sounded very much like a Bach trio. There was i m m e d i a t e confusion among the listeners. One swarthy, young fellow was on his feet shaking his fist. Schierloh looked pained. "I'm very much afraid that Mr. Raffel has slipped his Bach between sides three and four. Ah well, it's almost time to go back to work anyway."

We wandered on. The Bach, Mascagni clash had obviously unnerved our host. In an effort to restore his equanimity we decided to take the lead in the conversation. He was considered a good water color man? "Some say so," he began, brightening. "I paint what I know. I know landscapes. Funny thing about landscapes. You can dash some right off. Others just seem to escape you. For instance, last year Mr. Burroughs (Dean of the Institute) brought in a problem on the Garden of the Gods. That's Death Valley, you know. I've painted that thing thirteen times. The last effort looks as bad as the first. But I haven't given up. I'll get it, yet." We bet he will.

Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of our science. Emerson


Science stands for progress. Its method is that of theory and experimentation by which it attempts to explore the forces of nature, forces that may be used by man for his good or for his destruction. Science includes medicine with the doctors and nurses fighting diseases that cause human suffering. Science includes physics, chemistry, geology, biology and the queen of the sciences, mathematics. Science looks to the future by continually pushing back the barriers that separate man from the cure of such diseases as cancer and leukemia. The Division of Science is an integral part of the University of Dayton. It offers students an outstanding course in pre-medical work. A program in nursing is carried on in conjunction with St. Elizabeth HospitaLGeology, physics, chemistry constitute other major fields of study, while the division is rounded out by the science of home economics.

Chemists, Mathematicians Advance Theories A four-state convention highlighted the activities of U.D.'s Chemistry Society. The two day conclave was held in the auditorium of the Albert Emmanuel Library and consisted in student addresses and an exhibition furnished by Dayton industry. Some onehundred and fifty delegates participated. The group is affiliated with the American Chemistry Society. Officers for the year included president Dave Hoene; vice-president, Victor Herbert; treasurer Edward Wehner, and secretary, Renate Altwicker.

Webster defines mathematics as the science which treats of quantities and probabilities. To the members of the U.D.'s Math Club the term holds a much more romantic appeal. They regard math as a challenging and captivating adventure. It is precisely because of this outlook that the select charges of moderator Dr. K. C. Schraut are tops in their field. Officers were Harry J. Smith, president; Robert Shroyer, vice president; Theresa Fricke, secretary; and Alan Berens, treasurer.

Sigma Delta Pi, an honorary pre-medical society dedicated to the maintenance of interest in the field of medicine, was founded at U .D. in 1936 by Dr. Francis Molz. Dr. Molz served as moderator of the organization until his death in 1946. Dr. Louis Saletal, S.M., beloved dean of the Science Division, succeeded him and held the position until his death in 1953, whereupon Mr. Robert C. Wiechman took the post. Sigma Delta Pi leaders of the past have always felt that a dynamic interest in medicine could best be attained and cultivated through a positive program. This year's leader also entertained this belief. Under the guidance of it's president, William Fishbaugh, the group sponsored a series of speakers at their meetings. They discussed a wide field of medical subjects from dental school to the symptoms and care of cancer. Members also conducted a tour of the new Miami Valley Hospital. In the social realm, the club held a fall wiener roast, a Christmas party and a Spring Banquet. Vice president of Sigma Delta Pi was Richard Whitmer while Nancy Frueh served as secretary and William Leider controlled the treasury.

Subtle Science Training campus coeds in the methods of solving domestic problems is the charge of the Home Economics Club. In this way the club serves to prepare U.D. young women for their future as "ideal homemakers". Mastering the subtle science has manifold ramifications. The girls strive after everything from culinary proficiency to mastery of interior decoration. The club is dedicated to the proposition that a wife's place is in the home. But most of the members are not yet wives, hence they rationalize their activities which this year included sundry parties, a buffet dinner, a style show, a dance, a charm school, decoration of a luxurious Homecoming float and initiation of justifiably eager new members. 路 Madame president was Pat Falke. O thers included Pat Schorch, vice-president; Kathy Jardine, secretary; Janet Grentz, treasurer. Mrs. Ethel Rose, Mrs. Betty Payne and Mrs. Hope Self of the faculty strive to direct the girl's enthusiasm towards worthwhile pursuits.

PICK AND HAMMER

Nu Limited to majors in the geological sciences who have completed eight semester hours of course work in their chosen field and other B average students, membership in the Pick and Hammer is held by a small but active group. The dub holds semi-monthly get-togethers in addition to glacial field trips, mineral collecting trips, picnics and banquets.

Nu Epsilon Delta sorority has as its end the development of nursing leadership and the cultivation of personal, social and cultural ideals among nurses. Eligibility is limited to Registered Nurses working toward a degree and student nurses in the collegiate four year program.

The dub was organized in 1947 under the designation of the Geology Club but the more romantic present tide was substituted this year.

This year's membership held a lecture series dealing with important medical topics. The group also sponsored several parties and picnics and a fashion show.

Donald Supcoe served as president of the organization. Vice-President was Jerry Ford. Lael Ely had charge of the minutes and all correspondence. Pick and Hammer monetary affairs were capably administered by Joseph Brender. Mr. G. H. Springer served as advisor for the group.

President of the sorority was Mary Ann Spearim. Vice-president was Elizabeth Cannata. Carole Ann Niebauer held the secretarial post and Elsie Muska directed the dub treasury.

Faculty A democracy is dependent upon an enlightened electorate. It is as strong as the moral and intellectual fibre of its people. The future of the United States is in her youth, and the future of that youth is in the hands of its teachers. Tremendous indeed, is the reiponsibility of the University. The training with which she now imbues her students will be conveyed by them to their charges. The success of American education is vital to the well being of the nation. The Division of Education was established in 1935. Students may pursue a course of study directed toward a career in either primary or secondary education. The Department of Physical Education is also part of this division.

Bro. Louis Faerber, S.M. Dean of Education

The Wisdom of Ancient Greece Ancient Greece was the fountain head of Western Civilization. She has bequeathed to us a two-fold legacy of philosophy and democracy. Yet the genius of the philosophers did not work a great influence on the pt~oples of Greece. Greek religion includes a host of gods, and glorified humans subject to the appetites and frailities of the flesh. Not until the establishment of Christianity was the full meaning of Greek philosophy appreciated.

Chorus, Glee Club Blend Voices 1n Christmas Two choral groups exist on campus which offer excellent opportunities to those whose talents lie in the field of community singing. Their recognition as superior college vocal organizations is rapidly advancing. The groups are the University Chorus and the Men's Glee Club. The paramount presentation of the Chorus is the annual production of George Handel's Christmas Oratorio, "The Messiah." The group also presented a program at the Marian Award ceremonies and conducted a spring concert. Officers for the year included Ronald Ryan, president; Robert Walsh, vice-president; Joanne Faulkner, secretary; and Jack Kelly, accompanist. Mary Minic was business manager. Marge Hegedus held the position of librarian and Lillian Szabo was publicity director. Mr. Lawrence Tagg was faculty director of the Chorus replacing Mr. Nelson Harper. The Men's Glee Club combined with the Chorus to produce a special Christmas concert. The group also sang the High Mass for the opening of the Marian Year and the Baccalaureate Mass in Holy Angels church. Officers of the Glee Club were Robert Thompson, president; Robert Walsh, vice-president; Robert Schmid, secretary, and Jack Kelly, accompanist. John Hussong maintained the repertoire.

Doing Brown, treasurer. Andrew Brown served as club historian and Chris Frey, representative-at-large. Moderator of the F.T.A. is Brother Louis Faerber, S.M., dean of the Education Division.

The Fulton J. Sheen chapter of the Future Teachers of America attempts to acquaint its members with the goals and aspirations of a united teaching profession. Confident that the ultimate leaders in the teaching field will emerge from F.T.A. ranks, the group assures opportunity of exercising professional privileges early in the form of student-teaching assignments. The organization, previously formed on campus as the Education Club, is named for and dedicated to Bishop Fulton J. Sheen of New York whom the group regards as the zealous exemplar of the "Great Teacher" and the representative of the lofty spirit and high purpose of Christian education. Sponsorship of the sixth annual conference of Ohio F.T.A. groups by the U .D. chapter highlighted the year's projects which included the yearly Teacher Career Conference, assistance to Dayton high schools, and substitute teaching programs. The chapter lays claim to state leadership in assisting other colleges to organize F.T.A. branches. Certificates awarding degrees of merit and distinction were conferred upon certain members at the spring banquet.

Never man who fear t h e want of b . calling o qualifies himself usmess. A ' never fails of employment well for his . Thomas Jeff erson .


Social reform has highlighted the first half of the twentieth century. Under the pressure of organized labor and progressive legislators, industry has made numerous concessions. Today Big Business realizes that its existence depends upon a friendly public and a satisfactory employer-employee relationship. Add to this the increasing complexity of the business world and the need for college trained men becomes apparent. Management has turned increasingly to the University in order to supplement its ranks with men and women, who are not only highly trained in a specialized field, but also well grounded in the fundamentals of business organization. The Division of Business Administration had its humble beginnings in 1905 in the Commerce Department. Today it boasts the greatest enrollment of any college on campus. Major fields in Business include Accounting, Retailing, Personnel Management, Com · merce, Economics and Business Administration.

Retailers

Accountants .

The Retailing Club, founded back in 1950, was originally called the Sales-Retail Club. Recently several · changes have been made in the organization of the club, chief among which is the change of name. Although this new designation makes it appear that the retailers have severed all ties with past tradition, the essential nature of the society · remains constant. The aim of the group is to present an explanation of modern merchandising methods to its members.

The Accounting Club's avowed purpose is to acquaint its members with advanced technique through lectures and panel discussions of modern finance methods. This rather austere academic outlook was evidenced this year when the bookkeepers imported several qualified speakers from local business and industry. Members sought diversion by assembling an elaborate Homecoming float depicting the machine age and sponsoring a Christmas party for a group of orphans.

Owing to their devotion to modern specialization, this year's Retailers were not interested in programmed merriment, but rather devoted their collective efforts to organizing field trips, style shows and monthly lectures. Occasionally this sober schedule was disturbed by a picnic or party, but such frivolity was not characteristic.

Since enlightenment takes precedence over entertainment, the Accounting Club maintains no definite social program. However, this does not inhibit the social consciousness of the members. Many of them are seen at parties and dances despite their interest in accounting.

Bill Poeppelman wielded the group gavel. Bob Montgomery was vice-president, Howard Pang was secretary, and Winnie O'Neil was treasurer.

President of the organization was Richard Daum, moderator was Mr. J. Updyke.

Economists Although one might be inclined to believe that our complex American economic system discourages investigation, such is not the case. One group vitally interested in our economy is the campus entity known as the Economics Club. Members strive to gain an understanding of the functioning of the system.

The Economics club held several dinner meetings at which prominent guest speakers presided. Field trips to local banks and industrial plants were also held. John Braun was president of the organization. Other members included Joe Zummo, vice president; John Angerer, secretary; Armand Meachim, treasurer. All business and economics majors are members.

This concern for economics is not a recent phenomenon at U.D., for the club is one of the campus' oldest. It was founded in 1923 by Dr. O 'Leary, the present moderator.

Managers Ronald Wojcik was president of the society which held meetings dealing with such topics as Dun and Bradstreet and current labor-relations problems. This year's agenda also called for trips through local industrial plants, a Christmas party for a group of orphans, and a spring banquet. John Angerer served as vice-president of the group. Mary Kneese was secretary and treasurer was William Kinser. Dr. O'Leary of the of the faculty advised the group, comprised to a mark degree by business majors.

Perhaps the fastest growing organization on campus is the Society for the Advancement of Management. Membership has increased six-fold over the past two years. The society exists to stimulate interest in the social, psychological, and economic implications of modern capital-labor relations. Ultimately the S.A.M. hopes to advance still further the American standard of living through new scientific methods of business and industrial supervision.

To define it rudely but not inaptly, engineering is the art of doing well with one dollar that which any bungler can do with two after a fashion. Arthur M. Wellington


Faculty A nation's physical accomplishment is the product of the technical mind. The need for men to carry on this work is ever present. The University must provide the training for such individuals. The College of Engineering was established in 1910. The University of Dayton is justifiably proud of its Engineering School, which is regarded as one of the best in the Midwest. Students may specialize in one of several fields. These include Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering.

The Wisdom of the Far East Buddism, founded in the sixth century B. C. is based •On the teachings of Gnatama Siddhartha, who advocated a life of self denial and contemplation. It remains today the dominant religion of the Orient. In the course of its twenty-five hundred year existence it has undergone change. However, its precept of wisdom through contemplation remains worthwhile.

No Ivory Towered Philosophers These Organized to acquaint its members with the aims of the engineering profession, the U.D. branch of the Ohio Society of Professional Engineers was granted its charter in May of 1949. Secondarily, the group offers opportunities for leadership development and the cultivation of fraternalism. The extent of membership in the club has remained comparatively constant. Some 101 students were associated with the O.S.P.E. this year. The group sponsored the victorious Homecoming Queen candidate, Pat Falke and her freshman attendant, Judy Sachs. O.S.P.E. also entered an elegant parade float with "One Hundred Years Of Engineering Progress" as its theme. The group also attended the 76th annual O.S.P.E. convention in Akron, Ohio and held several successful social functions. The club gave effective support to the Christmas charity project insituted by the Student Senate.

The Daytonian staff was unable to identify this picture, however any of these fellows appear capable of doing with one dollar what any bungler might do with two. (see page 105)

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS The U .D . student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, founded on campus in November of 1951, has as its goal the broadening of the mechanical engineering students' concept of the practical side of their field; the developing of interest in engineering progress; and the promoting of initiative, public oratory and fraternal contact. The group held monthly meetings, arranged a student paper competition, and participated in the annual A.S.M.E. Student Conference at Wayne University in Detroit, Michigan. President of the organization was George Roth. Howard Campbell served as vice president, James Lorenz as secretary, and Paul Vergemini as treasurer. A. J. Westbrock held the position of Honorary chairman of the society.

AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS AND INSTITUTE OF RADIO ENGINEERS AlEE-IRE is not the sound of a vociferous Wagnerian soprano practicing for Saturday's performance of Tannhauser. Nor is it the vocal exercise which issued from Demosthenes as he roared back at the sea. It is, in fact, an abbreviation of the longest club title on campus-The Joint Student Branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Institute of Radio Engineers. The purpose of the organization is the dissemination of knowledge of the theory and practice of electronics, communication, power and other related fields of engineering and science. President of the club was Paul Blaeser. Vice president was George Perry, secretary was Bill Herndon, and treasurer was Jerry Kiener. Brother Louis Rose, S.M., was the moderator.

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERS Founded in the fall of 1926, the U.D. branch of the American Society of Chemical Engineers is the oldest campus club affiliated with a national organization. The time-honored society, open to all chemical engineers and students, has as its purpose the dissemination of pertinent information and the development of lofty professional ideals in its members. The A.S.C.E. held periodic meetings and initiated several eventful field trips. President of the group was Jack Kroger; vice president was Denis Foley; and secretary-treasurer was Joseph Herdy; Mr. E. J. Baldinger served as faculty moderator.

FLYERS' HANGAR

Party


l 'he Flyers' Hangar is the largest organization on campus. This is due in no small measure to the fact that it is dedicated to the one end which evokes universal favor among college students, namely, good fun. Hangar was first organized in 1945 by a group of World War veterans who realized the need for social supplement to purely academic pursuits.

Society is now one polished htorde Formed of two mighty tribes, the Bores and Bored. Byron

At mid-year Hangar merged with the former Spirit Committee, thus molding a campus social organization which could more effectively serve all of the students. Hangar again sponsored bi-weekly dances at the Loretto. These affairs were informal in nature and open to the general public. In addition not a few parties were held. These gay gatherings have always been particularly popular among Hilltop students, who view them as a welcome escape from humdrum erudition. An excursion to the Louisville basketball game was another Hangar project. This southern sojourn proved a huge success for most of the travelers. Animated participation in the Homecoming Parade was also added to the list of Flyer Hangar achievements.

Reconstruction Notwithstanding

Newest of the campus clubs is the Hoosier Club, organized last fall. Fostering a spirit of friendliness among all the students from Indiana is the preoccupation of it's members.

All U.D. students from the friendly neighboring state to the south, Kentucky, are joined in a social alliance called the Bluegrass Club.

Biggest event of the year for the Hoosiers was participation in the Homecoming Parade. The group outfitted an attractive float featuring a symbolistic racing car. Tom Bollinger served as president. Jerry McAvoy was vice-president and Ben Schwegman, treasurer. Sue Gilford kept clerical matters in check.

This year's group was an active one. Picnics and parties were the most popular projects, but the highlight of the year was the decoration of the prize winning Homecoming float. President of the group was Jerry Ford. Other ;r officers of the group were Jolly Hayden, vice-president; Bob Schuhmann, treasurer, and Connie Masten, secretary. The moderator of the group is also a southern gentleman. He is Brother Thomas Price who hails from Georgia.

New Yorkers Sedate Group

Promoting campus regard for their picturesque Pacific homeland is the paramount avocation of the members of Hui 0 Hawaii.

I t is quite natural that residents of the world's most capacious city have highly developed social concepts. Hilltop students from New York city are banded together in a sc cial enterprise known as the Knickerbocker Club. The organization was formed in 1950 and is a active one. Dances, parties, and picnic; were the order for the year. The Gotham group also sponsored a Homecoming candidate.

The club sponsored several parties and picnics, but the apical achievement was the decoration of a sumptuous Homecoming Parade float. This exotic creation was embellished with some 300 Hawaiian orchids. President of the delegation from the "49th State" was George Wong. Vice president was Donald Weiss. Edward Sasaki was recording secretary and Harold Okita corresponding secretary. Howard Pang was treasurer and Brother Edward Fick, S.M., moderator.

President was Edwin Hoebich; vice president Henry Kirsche; secretary Alice Curcillo; and treasurer Joseph Oths.

Words and Music. . In December the annual Christmas Ball, sponsored by the Pershing Rifles captured social interests. Held at the Idle Hour Nite Club, the event featured the bands of Karl Taylor and Earl Holderma11; Vivacious Connie Youngman performed the regal functions, with help from her attendant Lydia Powers. An appearance was also made by a ruddy faced Santa Claus, whose spirit of frivolity was matched by that of the huge crowd which filled two floors of the club. Again this season, the Christmas Ball proved a huge success. I

The glamour dance of the season at U. D. has always been the Junior Promenade. This year provided no break from tradition. Held at Lakeside Ballroom in February, the eagerly awaited event proved a splendid success. Junior Prom highlight was the crowning of beautiful Rita Kinsella as queen by Bob Daley, president of the junior class. Buddy Morrow and his band provided musical assistance for a large and lively crowd of couples. Add to this the xeitement of the Homecoming Queen election camp 1'ig~ the color of the football game and the ecstacy ' the evening dance and one recognizes the ingredien the perfect Homecoming. Lovely Pat Falke ret ~ as queen of the dance and the half-time ceremonie~llJ.~he game. Jerry Wald and his orchestra provided til usic at Lakeside Ballroom. The affair closed the . ntful day with an appropriate flourish.

Balmy April weather brought the coeds' fancy to thoughts of the annual Turnabout Tag dance sponsoreci by the Central Women's Organization which offers the girls a minor education in the art of date-making. A frantic week of campaigning resulted in the election of Don Donoher to rule as monarch of the evening. Karl Taylor provided the music for the Turnabout, which has become a very popular occurrence among the not-too-well-to-do campus males.


The month of May brought two traditional dances to the U. D. spotlight. The Military Ball, held at Lakeside Ballroom, is sponsored by the Scabbard and Blade society. A host of handsome campus cadets escorted their radiant dates to the ball and danced to the music of the Karl Taylor and Earl Holderman bands. The galaxy of braid-bedecked men and lovely coeds made this the most colorful U. D. social event. Janet Grentz was crowned queen and Lucretia Rhodes, attendant.

The grand climax of Hilltop highlife came near the end of May with the Senior Farewell dance held ;r at Lakeside Ballroom. The renowned Ray Anthony orchestra performed on the nostalgic evening. Pretty Katie Maraglou and handsome Larry Sorohan presided as king and queen. For the graduates the evening was one of sober reflection. For the Farewell represented the final fling of the U. D. senior elite. It recalled four years of previous social affairs "in the cause of good fellowship."

There is no frigate like a book To take us lands away, Nor any coursers like a page Of prancing poetry. This traverse may the poorest take Without oppress of toll; How frugal is the chariot That bears a human soul! Emily Dickenson

An integral part of any college is its residence halls. Here students from every state in the union and many foreign countries en;oy the feeling of close 路 union and good fellowship which college dorm life. affords in a unique manner. In few colleges is this kindredship among boarding students more fully developed than in U .D.'s Alumni Hall and St. Joseph Hall. It is especially exhibited in the study sessions, the card games and the decorating rivalry. You may see it in the reading rooms and in the club rooms. Four years of college dorm life provides an mvaluable foundation for future community living based on sound citizenship. Nearly without exception ~hose who have had a share in college dorm life are the better for their experience. Such is certainly the case at U.D.

Mrs. May Unger Supervisor, Student Union

Mundane Concerns Vanish in Haven

The life of the serious U . D. student would indeed become droll were it not for the existence of the familar frame structure dedicated to diversion and recreation, the Student Union building. Here campus scholars gather in gay clusters, intent upon dismissing their worries regarding exams, homework and all other traditional college bugaboos. Although all Union frequenters are consecrated to the same end, the method of gaining diversion differs from the chess advocate to the comparatively Philistinian pinnochle player or table-tennis devotee. Mrs. May Unger is supervisor of the Union and it is her function to see that the joviality is kept within proper bounds.

Bandsmen, Coeds Sprint Through Successful Season

146


Under the dynamic leadership of director Maurice R. Reichard, the University of Dayton marching band

enjoyed still another in its ever growing list of auspicious seasons. _ This year's aggregation excelled in the presentation of pre-game and half-time musical spectacles on the football field. Assisted by the renowned Marching Coeds led by Barbara Smith and the baton wizardry of drum major Fred Miller, the band executed its traditional office wth zest and precision typical of few small college musical contingents. The football season was officially closed with the "On Parade Show", an annual post-mortem of gridiron music conducted by the band in the fieldhouse. The band also sponsored a concert by the SauterFinegan orchestra which was nationally broadcast from the fieldhouse. The Jazz Band, an offshoot of the Marching Band also presented a concert program. Jack Develbiss led this successful venture. Next the eighty musicians provided melodious diversion for Flyer basketball fans .at certain home games while simultaneously practicing for the very successful silver anniversary Spring Concert which featured music composed by Mister Reichard. The band officers included Jack Develbiss, president; Roger Keith, vice-president; Mary Minic, secretary; and Bob Walsh, publicity director. John Caron edited a very popular band newspaper. The year's rigorous toil was rewarded with a Lucculan banquet in the spring.

Four Plays, Tableaux Highlight Dramatic Season

With the U.D. Players firmly established in their own little "Spotlight Theater," the eighth consecutive season of presenting dramatic productions for the benefit of area audiences proved an artistic triumph. Arena staging, begun as an experiment in 1952 has proved so popular that again extra performances were scheduled so that six to eight were given for each play of the recent season. John I. McGrath, associate professor of Speech and Dramatics, has acted as Director of the group since its inception in 1946. "Stage Door," the Player~s first production for the season played six nights to capacity crowds and underscored the talents of many new members including Denton Phillips, Emma Kramer, Claire Stevens and Pat Schenk. Kaufman and Ferber's captivating study of a boarding house for aspiring actresses provided an excellent outlet for a cast of some thirty members. The second endeavor of the campus thespians was the production of "Harvey," a whimsical lark concerning a mythical six foot rabbit and his articulate owner, Elwood P. Dowd. Tom Broderick, in the role of Dowd, drew high praise from Dayton's drama critics for his outstanding portrayal. Excellent support was offered by Jean Laubenfels, Pat Schenk, Ray Bedwell, Ed Feidner, Bob Tamaska, and Mary Lee Sherman. The final major production in the spring, "Ladies of the Jury" opened to a capacity house and ran for three weekends. Emma Kramer turned in an excellent portrayal in the leading role. Poignant character studies were presented by Otto Zolg, Peggy Haley, Chuck Scott, Lucretia Rhodes and many others. The play marked the final performance of Ray Bedwell, Mary Thesing, Pat Schenk and Ed Feidner, four year veterans with the University Players. The group also took part in many other activities. Industrial skits, television programs and a Christmas tableau in the fieldhouse all drew participants from the Players. Mary Thesing served as assistant director of the group.

Highlights In Retrospect XAVIER

JOHN CARROLL

The Flyers opened their season and the fifth home and home series with Xavier by bowing to the host Musketeers, 7-0.

Coach Joe Gavin's inexperienced crew scored their first points of the against John Carroll at Cleveland but Blue Streaks, 19-13, for defeat numbet

Muskie co-captain Bobby Judd's third period score proved the game's only offensive highlight as Gavin's charges got their first taste of "single platoon" football. The Dayton defense, sparked by Shafor and Fischer, showed well in the bruising battle of lines but the sophomore laden Flyers failed to generate the potent offense which had been a U.D. trademark in recent years, netting only 111 yards.

but improving lean campaign lost out to the three.

Carroll ripped the Flyer defensfs for all three of their touchdowns in the second period and then settled back to protect a 19-6 halftime lead. Quarterback Jim Spoerl became the first Flyer to score in '53, tallying on an eight yard optional play after Charlie Guida's 82 yard kickoff return. Paul Spakowski pitched a 48 yard pass to Jim Katcavage for Dayton's second six-pointer in the fourth quarter.

QUANTICO Quantico's talent laden Marines, paced by the sparkling passing of Johnny Fry, scored in every period to bury the Flyers 31-0 before 6400 disgruntled fans. Fry, with Notre Dame's John Pettibon his main target, hit on 13 of 25 tosses as his mates had complete control of the situation from the outset. The Leatherneck defense was never tested by the green, impotent Flyers but junior guard Jim Shafor stood out once agairi in a losing cause, playing a grueling 57 minutes.

154

LOUISVILLE Homecoming day saw the Flyers spot the Louisville Cardinals two first quarter touchdowns and then rally to score once in each of the last three stanzas, downing Johnny Unitas and company 20-13. Jelic, Martin and Guida accounted for the Red and Blue scores, vwo of which were set up by Shafor fumble recoveries. The Flyers seemingly won this game for head coach Joe Gavin, who resigned after the John Carroll loss as a result of outside pressure.


SEASON RECORD lost 5

Won 3 DAYTON DAYTON DAYTON DAYTON

Scrappy Moore's Chattanooga Moccasins fell victims of a mild upset as U.D. won its second straight game, 19-6, before 5000 happy Flyer rooters. Charlie Guida, fleet junior halfback, scampered 75 yards off tackle in the first quarter giving U.D. a lead that was never threatened. Another opportune fumble recovery by Jim Shafor set up the second Dayton touchdown, tallied by Jackie Martin. The Flyers grabbed an insurance marker late in the third period as fullback Ralph Jelic crossed the final stripe behind a wave of blockers from 15 yards out. CINCINNATI The autumnal sun shown brightly upon a Cincinnati homecoming throng of 20,000 fans and the Bearcat team responded with a 27-0 victory over a determined but outmanned Dayton crew. Four different men scored for Cincinnati which was sparked by the outstanding passing of Murphy and Hill. Gavin's gridders returned home beaten but not shamed as U .C. went on to receive national honors as the country's top rushing team.

ADDITIONAL VARSITY GAMES MIAMI Playing their finest game of the season, the Flyers harassed but failed to defeat a fine Miami Redskin team, losing out 20-7. U.D. steadfastly contained the Redskin attack except for the bull-like rushes of Tom Pagna. The powerful Miami halfback, playing despite a painful leg injury, riddled the Dayton defenses time and time again. On the other hand, the Flyer offense, sparked by Quarterback Jim Spoerl, constantly threatened the Redskin lead. Miami opened the scoring but U.D. quickly struck back with Don McHenry's eight yard run giving the Red and Blue a short lived 7-6 advantage. However, the Oxford crew countered with another tally and never relinquished their lead despite ever present Flyer threats. MARSHALL Sparked by Hal Gabel, a heretofore unpublicized fullback, Dayton romped to a precision-like 21-6 win over Marshall's inept "Thundering Herd". Gabel scored his first two varsity touchdowns and Chuck Guida caught a Paul Spakowski pass for the other as U.D. molded a crisp and functioning offense after being held scoreless the week before. This was the ninth straight Dayton victory over the West Virginia Herd and left the series 12-4 in favor of the Flyers.

Freshtnan Football Frosh grid coach, Tony Furst guided the Flyer fledgings to a respectable 2-2-1 season. A combined total of eight points separated the Furstmen from an undeafeated season. The young Hilltoppers opened with ~ 路 57-0 rout of Ohio Wesleyan's junior varsity. Halfback Bill Smith and fullback Don Weeks combined to score five touchdowns. The U.C. Bearkittens leveled the Flyer record a week later. tincinnati took a 13-7 d~cision. George Schmidt tossed to Don Weeks late in t,he second quarter for Dayton's lone tally. Furst's frosh journeyed next to Miami and forced John Pont's first year men to come from behind to gain a 7-7 tie. Jim DeFabio rambled 24 yards off tackle for the U.D. score. Xavier's junior Musketeers became the second Flyer victim as the Fledglings reached their season's peak, winning 25-12. The passing of George Schmidt was the most important factor in the U.D. triumph. Schmidt completed 7 of 15 throws for 161 yards. Halfback Billy Smith sparkled in a losing cause as the frosh dropped their second game to the Cincinnati Bearkittens, 14-12. Smith made a diving catch of a Jerry Bush pass for one U.D. tally and Jed a 96 yard drive for the other. :

Only seven years! That's all the time it has taken Leonard Thomas Blackburn to lift Hilltop basketball out of the doldrums and into the limelight of national recognition. His rise has been one of the swiftest in the history of the game.

This was to have been a rugged year for Tom Blackburn's Flyers. Faced with the toughest schedule in U.D. cage history - a rugged 30 game grind against the nations best - the stoical Dayton coach saw the Army grab one of his most dependable stars, Jim Paxson, and his immediate successor, Arlen Bockhorn. However a giant sophomore center from Ohio's hinterlands stepped into the court scene and, together with the four "iron men" of last season, led the Flyers to an impressive record and another N.I.T. berth.

Returning from National Invitational The Flyers are overlooked as the seeded teams are chosen and draw Manhattan for the first round. About 300 fans follow the team to Gotham for the opener. Dayton is unable to find the range in the first half and falls as many as 12 points behind. Spectacular shooting by the Jaspers' Ed O'Connor gives Manhattan a ten point bulge at _intermission. However the second half sees the visiting Gem City crew overcome the tournament jitters and roar back to win going away, 90-79. Uhl, Horan and Sallee each bag 17 points.

Any hopes of becoming the third straight Dayton team to enter the N.I.T. finals were shattered for the路 Flyers as they dropped a close 77-74 decision to Niagara's Purple Eagles. Paced by big Bill Uhl, U.D. outscored the winners from the floor but were beaten at the free throw line. Niagara's ability to cash in on the "last shot" plus the fact that Dayton missed four straight foul pitches toward the end of the game were the deciding factors in this crucial second round contest. Uhl was the game's high scorer with 33 points.

Freshman Basketball The 1953-54 version of the frosh basketball team upheld the traditions of Hne play set down by previous squads. Under the· ~ble leadership of Jim Douglass, who succeeded Junior Norris, the freshmen romped to 19 wins in 25 games. Only Louisville held a definite edge over the Flyers, winning both of their encounters. Al Sicking, center from Cincinnati, led all scorers with 332 points during the regular season. He received strong competition throughout the year from playmaking guards Carmen Riazzi, Bill Almashy, Dale

Fairchild and Jim Partin. Partin, from Englewood, Ohio, was the season's most pleasant surprise. Not on the first five at the beginning of the year, Jim finished as the team's top rebounder. Douglass' crew entered the state A.A.U. tourney but failed to repeat as winners, losing to Inland in the finals of the Dayton District Tournament and to Art's Iron Works of Toledo in the Regional. However Flyer fans will be sure to see more of Sicking and crew in years to come.

Founded by current athletic director Harry Baujan in 1930, U.D.'s Monogram Club restricts membership to those who have attained a varsity "D" in a major sport. The club is far from being merely honorary, however.

Monogram members served as ushers at all of the basketball games and during the Marian Year Celebration on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. A spring picnic and a dance were also given by the Flyer athletes.

Sponsorship of the annual Dad's Day during the football season is one of the many functions of the group. On this occasion, the fathers of the members of the football squad are honored guests, and sit on the players' bench during the grid contest. This year

Officers included: Bill Cabo, president; Don Don路 oher, vice president; Hal Gabel, secretary; Andi Zulli, treasurer. Robert B. O'Donnell served as faculty advisor for the select group.

Muscle Mastery No Masculine Monopoly! The Women's Athletic Association at U.D. offers a complete sports agenda to the coeds. Activities include intercollegiate hockey, interclass volleyball and intramural basketball. Softball and tennis also occupy much of the members time during the spring season. The group also sponsored various parties this year and provided other social diversions for its members, thus accomplishing the purpose of the organization, for its aim is to complement the athletic with the social. Officers include Becky Strominger, Sue Finke, and Jacque Macbeth.

The Phy~ical Education Majors Club was organized in 1951 to supplement the professional education of women students majoring in Health or Physical Education. All such students automatically become members of the club. The group sponsored speakers on related subjects at their meetings and held several sports clinics hoping to prove that athletics is not a masculine monopoly. Jo Emmons was president of the club. Becky Strominger served as vice-president. Secretary-treasurer was Jackie Macbeth. The faculty advisor to the coed athletes was Miss Pat Monnette.

Amid the afterglow of college memories which the graduate cherishes throughout his life stands one paramount occasion. Although the Graduation Day of a great university constitutes but a fraction of one's educational experience, it remains most unforgettable. It is a day of emotional conflict for the graduate. It is a day on which regret and pride gain a unique assimilation. The graduate regrets that the familiar scenes of his happiest days must be left behind and that many of hl.s most revered associations must necessarily be severed. Yet the graduate experiences an exhilarating sense of achievement wrought by four years of serious endeavor. He is justifiably proud ot his newlywon degree but he is aware that his laurels carry with them a corresponding duty to the Creator. For it is indeed a duty that one employ his education in the service of his God and his fellow man.

Honor Graduates

In this manner does the 1954 graduate of the University of Dayton recall his " big day." He recalls that these were his thoughts during the Baccalaureate services in the chapel, the academic procession, and the Commencement exercises at the National Cash Register Company Auditorium. For the U.D. graduate is an individual prepared to meet the challenge of the future with courage and conviction.

All men see the same objects; but do not eaua,wv derstand them. Intelligence is the tongue that at<:cP.1rtt< and tastes them.


The University of Dayton On March 19, 1850 the Society of Mary in the person of Father Leo Meyer negotiated the purchase of a one hundred and twenty-five acre tract of land southeast of Dayton. !,'ather Meyer was a newcomer to America having arrived in the United States only the preceding year. His order, the Marianists, founded in France in 1817 by Father William Joseph Chaminade, is dedicated to the work of Catholic education. In 1849, they had answered appeals from several sectors of the United States for Brothers to teach in the parochial schools. Father Meyer had been sent to the Cincinnati diocese. In Cincinnati, Bishop Purcell assigned him temporarily to Emmanual Church in Dayton. In the course of his ministry in Dayton Father Meyer made the acquaintance of Mr. John Stewart, a wealthy land owner. Mr. Stewart, a direct descendant of the ill fated ruling house of England and Scotland, confided to Father Meyer his desire to return to France, where he could better control his extensive holdings. When Stewart offered to sell his estate to the Society of Mary, Father Meyer envisioned the central house of the proposed American Province of the Society and obtained permission to purchase the property. In July, 1850 with the aid of two Brothers he opened the doors of the old Stewart Mansion to boarding students and Saint Mary's Institute was born.

1850 YEAR OF CHALLENGE The United States was a rapidly expanding nation in 1850. The lure of gold discovered in California the preceding year, attracted thousands across the wilderness. Whole communities were on the move. The nation soon grew accustomed to the rumbling miles of awkward Conestogas. But above the surging, creaking din of laboring wagons a more ominious sound could be heard. The bitter controversy, that would embroil the nation within a decade in the tragic Civil War, was a ready issue in 1850. Only compromises in Congress kept the Union whole. 1850 saw the passage of the Fugitive Slave Bill. The same year Harriet Beecher Stow published Uncle Tom's

Cabin. The uncertainty of the times represented a formidable challenge to scholarship. Yet, in other respects the time for launching an educational institution was never more auspicious. New trends in political thought demanded interpretation. The popular doctrine of Jacksonian Democracy had created a favorable atmosphere toward education. Americans were anxious to increase their capabilities for self government and to take advantage of the most recent advances in science. Furthermore the year 1850 was a significant one in the arts. The spirit of Romanticism dominated the two great modes of 19th century expression, literature


In 1882 the Institution was empowered to grant college degrees. The first of these was conferred in 1891. In 1912 the school was re-named St. Mary's College and in 1920 under a revised charter it becam路= the University of Dayton. An extensive building program again highlighted the University's growth throughout the 1920's. Many of the familiar campus buildings made their appearance during this period including the Albert Emanual Library, Alumni Hall, and the football stadium. In 1935 the University became co-educational and the present academic divisions were established. PRESENT POSITION The University today is divided into two colleges, Arts and Sciences and Engineering. The College of Arts and Sciences consists of four d1visions: Arts, Science, Education and Business Administration. ThL College of Engineering is divided into four departments; Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, and Civil Enginering. In 1950 the University's Fieldhouse was completed, and in 1952 a new R.O.T.C. building was erected. A 1953-54 addition to the campus is the Founders' Hall for men. Brick and mortar are a measure of accomplishment, yet not alone does the physical plant produce a university. It means much more. The purpose of the University of Dayton is the complete and harmonious development of all the capacities of man's nature-religious, moral, intellectual, aesthetic, social and physical. Moral instruction and adequate campus discipline emphasize the importance of personality development and character formation while comprehensive academic programs furnish ample fields of study. Thus college becomes not only a preparation for life but an integral part of life itself.

and music. Wordsworth died in 1850 and while the works of the Romantic Poets were largely completed, their influence wa~ "nly beginning to assert itself. Beethoven and Schubert were gone, but their innovations had shaped a century of music. In 1850 Franz Liszt presented the premier performance of Wagner's Tannhauser. The United States had produced her share of literary greatness. The works of Poe, Hawthorne, Whit-tier, Longfellow, Bryant and Irving were known and admired throughout Europe. GROWTH DESPITE SETBACKS The trials of St. Mary's Institute in those early days were discouraging. A disastrous fire in 1854, which razed the only two permanent buildings on the campus, represented a staggering setback. Only the dogged pioneering determination of the founders kept Father Meyer's dream alive. In 1857 the school was reopened. From that date forward St. Mary's Institute made steady progress. Between 1860-70, under the direction of Brother Maximin Zehler, the Institute launched and successfully completed an ambitious building program. Among the buildings erected during this period was St. Mary's Hall, a pretentious structure, which for many years was the largest building in the city.

Alu111ni Association The University of Dayton Alumni Association during the past year repeated the innovation originated the year before. The dinner for the alumni and their friends was held in the Fieldhouse in the evening after the Homecoming game. Preceding the dinner, Father Andrew Seebold, S.M., the new president of the University, acted as host at a reception in honor of the alumni. The Homecoming dinner, at which the annual business meeting was held, was attended by more than 750 persons, an increase of about 300 over the first dinner. The installation of the newly elected officers and board members took place at that time. Following the dinner a report was given on the Development Program which right now has for its specific purpose to raise funds for equipping the new dormitory. The officers of the University of Dayton Alumni Association are: Louis R. Mahrt, '26, President; Robert A. Schultz, '41, Vice President; and Paul Moorman, '30, Treasurer.

Mary Shay, Alumni Secretary

Members of the Alumni Board of Directors are: John Duckack, '31, M.D., Daniel J. Hobbs, '38, Hon. Robert J. McBride, '32, Paul Heckman, '38 Robert Renner, '27, and Elmer J. Will, '37.

Daytonian Staff This 1954 Daytonian is the gift of the staff to the student body of the University. Long hours of planning and labor went into the making of this book. The inexperienced and uninitiated have little conception of the amount of time and energy consumed in editing an opus of the size of a year book. The staff realized the pleasqre this book of memories will give to graduates in the years to come, a realization that encouraged them to car,ry on. We hope you will like the result of our efforts.

Paul Litkowski Business Manager

Tom Olson Sports Editor

Even if words were made of gold, yearbook copy would be in vein. Lawrence Hussman

During the past several years the late dean of science was the faculty adviser of the Daytonian. His unexpected death at the end of May in 1953 left the unfinished annual of that year in the hands of inexperienced faculty members. But with the generous cooperation of the staff and particularly of the printer we were able to bring out the 1953 edition in September of that year. We hoped that our experience with annuals was ended with pinch-hitting for the departed faculty adviser. But no such luck. Some time in October of 1953 a top ranking member of the administration approached us and sug-

gested the idea of carrying on where we left off a few weeks ago. Knowing how much this book will be thumbed by the men and women of 1954 we did not have the heart to say no. The first task was to select a staff. We heard about some seniors who had done a very creditable job on high school annuals. That was just the break we wanted. Accordingly we approached the editor, Dave Evans, and asked what he thought about accepting the editorship of the 1954 Daytonian, a position which ranks with the highest on the campus. Dave accepted very graciously. Now the load was lighter. But the task is too big for one man, consequently we suggested Dave's pal, Larry Hussman for copy editor. We knew of Larry's literary abilities from previous work done on the Exponent. All set. Here we were with the two big wheels. Now assemble the spokes. But wait a minute. There is another important wheel. Dave look about for a artist, and where should he go but to the Art Institute where he found Dick Schierloh whom he calls "the real brains of the outfit." Then we put up signs for meetings of those who wanted to join the staff. If you do not believe we were agreeably surprised just look at the pictures of the staff on page 186. Now for the organization of the staff. Interest and a spirit of cooperation were everywhere in evidence. Suggestions carrie from all corners of the

meeting room. To publish any book money is needed and money comes from subscriptions. Paul Litkowski accepted the post of business manager and he and his immediate aids, Bob Schnetzer and Don Cisek, plus the rest of the staff combed the student body for some 600 subscriptions. We thank all you who helped us by your subscriptions and we hope you will be with t1s next year, yes, you and many more of the U.D. men and women. Tom Olson did a fine job with sports, helped by Joe Sammons, John Hussong, Bill Thomas and Bob Dailey. The faculty was in the hands of Karen Munn and Joan Moore. Sally Payne tackled a big job in arranging and typing all that material on the large senior class. Society editor was Sue Connolly with her staff of Mary Thesing, Loisann Volz and Mary Jauch. Classes belonged to Madonna Michaels, organizations to Connie Masten and Don Cizek. George Wong assisted in the layout. A giant task in the publishing of any annual is photography. Here we were fortunate. Brother Vincent Wottle is hereby voted a big "thank you" for his work and for his direction of the photography department of the Daytonian. Ray Fiedler, Tom Horvath, and Tom Mahlmeister did yeoman service with their cameras. Our sincere thanks to all who helped to prodtice the 1954 Daytonian which we hope will prove a source of much happiness to its readers.

The Scholastic We feel it proper for us to devote a few lines to some of the events that made 1953-54 a memorable year both on campus and elsewhere. The scholastic year began in September. Enrollment figures revealed that the largest segment of the student population was pursuing courses in Business Administration. This must be significant, but as History and English majors ~;espectively, we find ourselves incapable of objective comment.

The social season was officially ushered in by the Freshman Welcome dance, which climaxed a week of initiations. By this time the ponderous machinery of the campus organizations had begun to function. Clubs and fraternities feverishly engaged in their annual pursuit of new blood. There were also occasional whispers regarding a prospective party.

The success of the Homecoming Parade hinged on perfect timing. This was accomplished with a degree of precision which ca路ri only be reflected as a tribute to the methodical, painstaking planning of the Parade Committee. Several weeks after their initial success this energetic group reported that plans were already under way for the 1954 Homecoming. This extravaganza, we are told, may include the first annual University of Dayton Homecoming Day Parade Premier, a festive pageant to proceed the even more spectacular actual parade. November was in general uneventful. One item, however, did command some campus interest. With the basketball season in the offing, the Sports columnist of the U.D. News, a campus newspaper with personality, recalling the privations of the student seating section, attacked the Student Council for its failure to alleviate the situation. That august body took the criticism with good graces, however, making a point to clarify its position. In a subsequent edition of the News, the new sports columnist commented that the seating allotment appeared adequate. December, the traditional month of carols and chorales descended upon the campus. During the month the nationally known Camel Caravan wended its way into the fieldhouse with Vaughn Monroe and

Enter October, that poignant mistress of color with her rhapsody of autumnal sights and sounds. They are there, all the familiar antecedents of fall: the healthy smack of foot meeting leather as some virile youth sends a pigskin soaring against the blue; the smell of charcoal and the taste of burnt marshmallows; the tang of hard apples; the first thin coat of ice spanning a mud puddle in the student parking lot. But autumn, 195 3, had a deeper meaning at the University, for October marked the occasion of the first annual University of Dayton Homecoming Parade. Nearly every campus organization was represented in this gigantic undertaking. No less than twenty floats were entered and competition for the float showing the most originality was of the keenest. In the end the realistic creation of the Bluegrass Club (see page 128) was judged as the outstanding contribution.

the Sauter-Finegan orchestra as principals. Also in December, the University Chorus and Glee Club blended their voices in their presentation of the Messiah, an oratorio by the renowned "English" composer, George Fredrick Handel. During the bleak winter months an occasional party relieved the pressure and routine of study. Several of these were unusually successful. In one instance it is reported that over one hundred and

Perambulator twenty undergraduates were entertained in a five room abode. The Cleveland boys and girls celebrated at the Towers. After Christmas the folks from the Blue Grass State threw an all-time great at the Knights of Columbus Club. Then the Flyers' Hangar travelled out to the Polish Club for an evening of fun and the Knickerbockers from the Empire State went into action at the Towers. The physical demands imposed upon the basketball spectator are scarcely less than those exacted of the participants. As a result it is little wonder that after the hubbub of the game some students were wont to retire to some peaceful spot where they might pass a relaxing hour. Perhaps the favorite such trysting place was Kramer's Carryout, where a hushed, correct atmosphere provided the perfect backdrop for conversations of a more than casual nature.

Operation Flyer Frolic kept the campus buzzing during the months of March and April. The purpose of this campaign was to provide for the restoration of lights for the football stadium. Carrying this scheme to its logical conclusion, we look forward to the first annual University of Dayton Torchlight Homecoming Parade. This was indeed a banner year from the standpoint of literary achievement. Campus publications outdid themselves. The editor of the Exponent spoke out on such diverse topics as the ethics of the Junior Senator from Wisconsin (whose name is omitted to prevent av investigation of the Daytonian) and the shortcomings of the student parking facilities. The crusading editor met with much the same success as the former Sports Editor of the U.D. News. The U.D. players had a banner year with three plays in their Spotlight theater: Stage Door, Harvey and Ladies of the Jury. Our hats off to them for their splendid acting. Then the U.D. band outdid past per-

formances with a classy performance at the spring concert. The boys in the spring sports do not get much attention from the student body. But we salute them for carrying the banner of U.D. high and lofty. The Turnabout Tag, held in April, offered coeds at the University an opportunity to express their preference in escorts. The original planning of this page had provided for more than adequate coverage of this affair. However, as the editorial board of the yearbook was universally ignored by the young women, we feel it our perogative to drop the whole distasteful business. In an effort to give the old Hilltop that sedate, eastern look, several students in May put in an appearance on campus in Bermuda shorts. It was not expected that this creative minority would immediately sway the crowd, but one or the other trouser manufacturer has fastened his eye this way. Where will our knees be in September? May also brought the traditional picnic once more to the campus. These casual outdoor treks provide students an opportunity for relaxation in the fresh air and for informal conversation. These discussions range from the relative merits of the latest surrealistic paintings to the thematic exposition of Sibelius' Second Symphony.

Ray Anthony made a belated appearance in Dayton in late May. Originally scheduled for the Junior Prom, he arrived in time for the Senior Farewell. Graduation took place on June tenth, 1954. And so to the world. Each graduate to his own calling. Some to become hewers of wood, others drawers of water, most, (we trust) successful as makers of money, and one or two perhaps, to become scribblers-happy, artless scribblers.
