BRO. LOUIS FAERBER, dean of education at the University and "chief investigator" during the historic self-survey recently completed, gives a special report on the findings of the study in a story on pages 6 and 7. We think you'll find it most interesting. The faculty meeting at which the huge project was officially completed created a heartwarming enthusiasm among UD staffers. Fr. Seebold announced immediately he would appoint a standing committee charged with the responsibility of determining the extent to which the recommendations of the study were being carried out. This committee will report its findings to the faculty annually for five years. Obviously much impressed with the study, he said the committee would be "a guardian of this treasure .. _.. The complete self-survey report appears in three different volumes covering 900 pages .... Formation of the new advisory board to the Alumni Association promises to put new vitality into alumni activities across the country. Members of this board are pictured on page 13 .... Traditional "major" sports on the campus are going to have to move over and give some room for another sport-soccer -which is gaining in stature each year. Sports Editor Joe McLaughlin tells the story of Coach Pat Smith's boys on page 8. Joe also proudly presents on page 9 our first full-fledged All-American football player, End Fred Dugan .... By the way, for you photography bugs, the night shots of the campus (pages 3-5) by Gene Schill were taken with Kodak Royal X film, most of them with an opening of 4.5 at a speed of one second ... . Also, by the same way, lest we forget, here's a sincere wish to all UD alumni everywhere that you have an extremely enjoyable Christmas holiday and a most prosperous new year.

CLOSE OF SELF-SURVEY USHERS IN A NEW ERA AT THE UNIVERSITY N AN EPOCH-MAKING MEETING held on Friday, Oct. 18, the University of Dayton set its sights on the future as the results of the self-survey were officially released and a program of self-improvement was launched. The meeting was climaxed by the reading of the general recommendations and by the formal presentation of the first copy of the UD SELFSURVEY FINAL REPORT to Fr. Andrew L. Seebold, SM, president. "This was an historic meeting in the sense that it marked a turning point in the modern development of our University," commented Bro. Joseph J. Panzer, SM, cochairman of the self-survey and new dean of the University. The "turning point" hinged on the new perception gained from realizing the importance of keeping the distinctive mission of UD in clear focus and of making this mission operative in all the policies and practices of the institution. It was recognized that if the University is to be true to itself it must guide all of its operations in the light of its professed purposes. In order to make the University more efficient in the attainment of its purposes, more than two-hundred major recommendations were made by the fifty-seven committees engaged in the self-survey. These recommendations serve to spell out a definite action program incumbent upon all the University personnel charged with responsibilities in any of the areas covered in the self-survey. Responsibility for the coverage, integrity and publication of the final report was in the hands of the board of critical review composed of the following members: Bro. Faerber, chairman;
I
a special report to alumni by Bro Bro. Panzer, co-chairman; Dean Maurice Graney; Fr. Raymond Roesch; Prof. Wilfred Steiner, and Prof. Edward Huth. SOME OF THE MORE general of these recommendations, as drawn up by the board of critical review and read at the meeting by Bro. Panzer, include the following : 1. Promotion of a more vigorous intellectual life on the campus. This recommendation called for the creation and preservation of a genuine atmosphere of scholarship. It included such aids to scholarship as: academic convocations, honors courses, comprehensive examinations, lectures by outstanding scholars, improved library facilities, stimulation of interest in the better current trends in higher education such as the role of general education in the college curriculum. It was also recommended that the planning for the inauguration of graduate work be continued. 2. Fostering a concept of administration that employs the techniques for maintaining desirable rapport between the administration and the faculty. T his was deemed important particularly in order to promote the kind of cooperative and productive planning the University needs in its program of development. It was also aimed at promoting more extensive staff participation in administration. The board of critical review recommended that at least two new faculty groups be organized as soon as possible: a faculty senate and a student welfare council. 3. Strengthening existing lines of communication and establishing new ones wherever necessary. Various committees of the self-survey found that many administrative problems stemmed from a lack of communication. It was stated that: "The lines of communication in a University represent a fine network extending from the top levels of administration through the total faculty and staff and encompassing the entire student body. When kept alive, such lines of communication permit authority to be wholesomely diffused throughout the University; when not properly utilized, authority easily becomes dispersed, or perhaps completely removed, leaving ample room for confusion and dissension." Bro. Faerber with his Boa rd of Critica l Review. Le ft to rig ht are Dr. Stei ner, Fr. Roesch, Bro. Pa nzer, Dr. Graney and Dr. Huth.
4. Continuing and extending efforts to make UD's resources available to the community and at the same time learning to utilize more fully the resources of .the commu11ity itself. It was recommended that appropriate measures be taken to explore further ways and means of strengthening the University's ties with the community and of augmenting its services, particularly to Catholic and public education, to government, business, industry and labor. At the same time, the University ought not to ignore the unique resources of the community, utilizing them whenever possible for the enrichment of its own educational program. It was urged that in religious, educational and cultural activities particularly, the University would do well to exercise a more vigorous leadership in the community. In recognition of current accomplishments in this field, the board of critical review observed: "Perhaps one of the outstanding achievements of the University during the past decade
Louis J. Faerber, SM Bro. Faerber, dean of education at the University, was general chairman of the Self-Survey project.
has been the cognizance of its responsibility and its active program of service to the Dayton community. The creation of the Community Service Center has placed the University in the vanguard of advanced thinking and constructive action among the so-called independent colleges." 5. Re-examination of the whole character of the evening division with a view to determining its unique purposes and establishing and maintaining standards consistent with these purposes. "The evening division," the board stated, "is faced with a practical dilemma in its ambitious attempt to serve the needs both of adult education and of degree programs. Its problems are further complicated by uncertainties regarding its precise position in the University-for example, whether it is independent of, coordinate with, or subservient to the day school." IN OVERVIEWING THE EN TIRE self-survey many benefits, both of a direct and indirect nature, were seen to accrue to the University. The direct benefits may be identified as follows: 1. It provides a reliable sign-post pointing with accuracy to the directions of desirable future development. An institution does not stumble into progress; it needs to plan carefully and to go forward with certainty in the interest of economy of time and money, and, above all, in the interest of the priceless dedication of human lives particularly in the persons of our staff members. 2. It gives the University an action program for follow-up each year. By it the University will be in position to examine each year the extent to which the institution fulfills its real mission from the apostolic, educational and other points of view. 3. It guarantees continuity of policies and programs thus making it easy, for example, for new administrators and new staff members to step into their respective areas of responsibility. 4. It promotes development from within. It enables the University to rediscover its reason for being and helps it to do
better what it is supposed to do. It stimulates progressive selffulfillment. 5. It places the "mission" of the University in clear focus . UD looked into the mirror and saw itself just as it is and came to know exactly what should be done for improvement. 6. It yields the satisfaction of achievement. It allows staff members to realize that the University is getting somewhere; that their individual efforts are bearing fruit through the achievement of the University's real purposes. It bolsters the importance of each one's role in terms of the total work to be done. SOME OF THE IN DIRECT benefits include the following: 1. The older an institution is and the older the individual members might be the greater is the tendency toward ultraconservatism which often turns into a harmful negativism. Our frank and searching self-survey tended to explode the barriers of negativism as it opened up new avenues of progress. 2. It created a new academic fermen t on the campus. 3. It provided one of the most efficacious means whereby members could grow professionally under the most favorable circumstances. 4. It served as a powerful means in bringing about an effective cooperative spirit among all our members. The experience of the staff, both religious and lay, in discussing their findings in committee meetings resulted in a greater esprit de corps. 5. It provided ideal training in the dynamics of g roup relations. 6. It helped no end having both the administration and staff realize that they needed to pull together in going forward in the same direction toward the same high goals. 7. It produced a more sensitive profess ional conscience and a fa r richer professional life among our members.
DR. HUTH SUMS IT UP " This (self-survey) may be considered as a guide or beacon for charting the future progress of the University. Uts) true value and real significance . . . will appear in future months and years, during which the ideas expressed herein will be further scrutinized, weighed and tested. All of the constructive ideas expessed should become the basis for progressive changes toward a more perfect University of Dayton. The data presented should serve to point out the dimensions of the task ahead for the University. The challenging problems stretch out far beyond present horizons. " . . . The University of Dayton is ready and inspired to embark upon a program of selfimprovement and progressive educational advancement." IThese statements are taken #ram the foreword to the University of Dayton Self-Survey Final Report wh ich Dr. Huth, secretary of the board of critical review, edited.I

From Merrie England
He Came, He Saw, He Conquered T
HERE WAS THIS EN GLISHMAN and his wife who had relatives in Dayton. So this Englishman and his family came to Dayton. What has all this to do with the University of Dayton? Simply this. The Englishman is Pat, or maybe it's Phil, Smith and he is soccer coach at U.D. Now this soccer coach took his team to Ohio State early this fall and do you know what happened? Why, his Flyers with the international flavor licked those Buckeyes, 3-1. And then what did they do? They beat Indiana University, 6-4, and Ohio University, 2-1. See now why you're reading this in your favorite magazine. Of course, you do. And you should be reading more about these kickers coached by the man from Burmingham, Warwickshire. As this is written, the team has posted a 5-1 record including an exhibition conquest of the Edelweiss team in Dayton. And many of these young men will be back in the fold next fall. Where do these boys come from? Well, 8
The UD ALUMNUS
you've got one kicker, Ali Tovar, who was voted the outstand ing player in Venezuela in 195 5, and then there are eight boys from Mexico, three from Peru, one from Bolivia and others from the states of Ohio, Indiana and New Jersey. Quite a wide spread to their hometowns, wouldn't you say? Quite true. It is quite true also that there is a difference in the style of play in those various sections but Smitty, using a little license with his name, says: "This group has become a cohesive unit and we should have some good material for the next couple years." When Pat talks of individuals he points to Tovar. "He controls the whole field," says Pat. Now that takes quite a bit of doing when you consider a soccer field can be 100 to 130 yards long and 40 to 100 yards wide. One would get leg weary. "Not Ali, " says Pat. "He can go all over and directs a team nicely." But there are others, too, like Anibal Urteaga from Lima, Peru, who, Smitty
says, could be a great soccer player. Pat also praises Charles Raymond from Trenton , N.J ., who learned the game at Trenton Catholic. Franco Giraudi from Wyckoff, N .J. , and Jose Ponce of Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, are two others who covered themselves with glory during the fall. Other squad members are Tony Scalia, Staten Island, N.Y. ; Luis Mario Claure, LaPaz, Bolivia; Fred Pelayo, Irapuato, Mexico; Arturo Cordova, Reyes, Mexico; Fernando Ponce, Merida, Yucatan, Mexico; Silvano Pantezzi, Bronx, N .Y.; Daniel Becerra, Lima, Peru ; James Mulvaney, Dayton, 0 .; George Menendez, Merida, Yucatan, Mexico ; Carlos Mendizabal, San Luis Potosi, Mexico; Hans Kuppers, Lima, Peru ; Bernard Drerup, Auburn, Ind.; Alberto Diaz, Guanajuato, Mexico; and Alonso Gasque, Merida, Yucatan, Mexico. And there you are. Perhaps, we'll be able to write something about track, another new sport, next spring.

Hi! Back for a second time. Just goes to show the permanency of the public relations business. Your editor had to hustle me for this column. You know homecoming, Nov. 9, at which we licked North Dakota State 40-6; the all-important clash with Miami of Ohio, Nov. 16 and the tub-thumping for our All-American end, Fred Dugan, had me hustlin'. Might tell you that Homecoming was a roarin', and I mean roarin', success. The parade was great, there were 10,000 in the stands at the game and the Alumni dinner and student dance were successful. Don 't know whether our "howlin' " for Dugan will pay off or whether we have success against Miami since this is being written Nov. 13. Deadlines, you know. Before I leave football for the year may I tell you to look for Dugan with the San Francisco Forty-Niners next fall and keep a close eye on your alma mater for quarterback Mel Smolik, linemen Steve Palenchar, Emil Karas, Cliff Harestad, Bill Korutz and Tony Latell and fullback-end Vince Palyan. We got the Governor's Cup back this year with that exciting 24-13 victory over Xavier Oct. 26 and you see here Charles
The University of Dayton presents its first bonafide All-American football player. He's Fred Dugan, 6-2, 200-pound senior end from Stamford, Conn., who made the Look Magazine All-American list as selected by the Football Writers of America. During part of the season Fred was the leading pass receiver in the nation's major colleges. Here are a few game photos showing just a few of his outstanding abilities on the field.
W . Whalen, state representative, presenting it in the name of the Governor to Coach Bud Kerr. Tom Blackburn was getting more optimistic as the basketball practice season wore on. He was telling us that this could be the best outside shooting club he's had at Dayton and that it will be a club which must be substituted carefully. He might come up with two good units and don't be surprised if the starting lineup changes frequently this winter as those four sophs, Terry Bockhorn, Frank Case, Joe Kennelly and Hank Josefczyk, battle the juniors and seniors for opening roles.

On the National Scene . • •
H
OMECOMING saw, among other things, the election and installation of three new members to the alumni association's board of directors and two to the athletic board. Re-elected a director was Lloyd Rensel, '43, head man of the University's Guidance Center. Lloyd has served a number of years on the board. Newly elected were Robert Seiter, '44, and Paul Wagner, '39. Bob is with the Ray Cox Insurance Agency in Xenia, is one of five Ohio Junior Chamber of Commerce "Young Men of the Year" and also is a member of the newly-constituted alumni advisory board. Paul is office manager of Motorite Electric Co . in Dayton. Retiring from the national board was Dr. fohn Duchak, '31. James Finke, '48, president of Pharm-0Spot, Inc., in Dayton, was renamed to the athletic board, and Paul Heckman, '38, was elected to the board to succeed L eo Schmidt, '47. Paul is sales engineer at Master Electric Co. THE enthusiasm shown at the first joint meeting of the National Board and the new advisory board promises a renewed vigor in alumni organization and activities across the country. Alumni in the areas represented on the advisory board may look for a call from their representative who will be interested in getting a local chapter organized (if there is none at present) or putting chapter activities on a more active basis. If the enthusiasm of the advisory board can be passed on to alumni of each

area, there will soon be chapters in every major "UD area" in the country.
Cleveland . . . }T might be noted that many of the ideas discussed at the joint meeting of the National Board and the Advisory Board were contributed by the Cleveland chapter, one of the most active in the entire alumni association. Dr. Albert Hart, representing advisory board member Dan FitzSimons, gave a complete description of the organization and activities of the chapter. New chapters will undoubtedly be modeled on the highly successful Cleveland plan.

"Alice in Wonderland" and the Chemical Society's "Dumbo." Fairy tales was the theme for the floats. CHAPTER Secretary-Treasurer Dee McAnespie reported as THE ALUMNUS went to press that she had received $1 ,018 .5 0 in membership dues for 195758. This indicates there are still a few members whose dues are outstanding. SET aside the morning of Mar. 23 for the chapter's first Communion breakfast. Feeling alumni would prefer to get together on a more informal basis, co-chairmen George Humm and Ed Zweisler have decided there will be no speaker for the occasion - Mass, Communion, sermon and breakfast only. This religious activity will be held on the campus.

Montgomery County Chapter Awards First Scholarship FIRST W INNER of the University of Dayton Montgomery County Chapter Alumni Scholarship is Gerald W. Hartke, freshman in mechanical engineering. The scholarship, worth $250 for Hartke's freshman year, is the first to be awarded through the chapter's program announced last summer. A graduate of Chaminade high school in June, Hartke carried an approximate "B" average for his four years there. The
18-year-old winner, one of five sons of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Hartke of Dayton, was chosen as recipient of the award by the University's scholarship committee and approved by the chapter's board of directors. The Montgomery County group placed $500 into the scholarship fund-$250 into a permanent fund, and $250 into the first scholarship. Members of the chapter are being encouraged to contribute to the fund.
the anniversary classes respond to a questionnaire
T
HREE of this year's anniversary classes-'32, '47 and '52-have responded to a questionnaire addressed them by the University alumni office. The results of the questionnaire are of sufficient interest to report them to the alumni at large. Of the '32ers, 26 of a possible 100 class members responded, just more than 25 per cent. Thirty-one of the 150 members of the class of '47 responded and 71 of the 450 in the class of '52 took part. Here are some of the high points (all figures are based on the number of respondents to individual questions) : Are There Special Features You'd Like to See in The ALUMNUS? The class of '47 seemed satisfied with the status quo. From '32 and '5 2 came these ideas: "letters to the editor"; "section reports of alumni activities"; "how the different departments are changing"; "yearly list of faculty members" ; "outstanding accomplishments of UD grads"; "more information on present school activities"; "a section on heads of departments and their teachers"; "more news of alumni." The questionnaire also asked if any had attended homecoming dinners since graduation. Many said they had. Many more said they had not, with distance from Dayton being one of the most frequent reasons. One alumnus ('52) added a bright touch to his answer to this question. At the beginning of the form, he had listed his 14

children: "Steve, Linda, Tim, and Mary." His reason for not attending homecoming banquets: "Steve, Linda, Tim and Mary." Marital Status and Size of Family 1932 : The 24 who are married have 66 children among them. 1947: The 24 married have 69 children. 1952: The 52 married have 76 children. Have You Followed Developments At the University Since Graduation? 1932 : All, at least somewhat. 1947: All again, at least to some degree. 1952: All but four, at least to a degree. Have You Been Back to the Campus Since Graduation? 1932: All. 1947 : All but two. 1952: All but nine. Have You Maintained Contact With Any Faculty Member? 1932 : More than half have. 1947 : Few have. 1952 : More than half have. Have You Taken Additional Courses Since Graduation? 1932 : Fifteen have. 1947 : Eighteen have. 1952 : Thirty-eight have. Do You Feel Your Time at the University Has Profited You in Your Work? 1932: Yes, 100 per cent. 1947: Yes ("Immeasurably," "absolutely," "very
much," "some," were among comments.) 1952: Only two of 71 said "No." Comments included "more than I'll ever be able to realize, " " do not feel I could perform my job without it," " pre-med studies at UD put me on par with the 130 students from all over the U. S. in med school," "also socially and spiritually." Do You Have Any Suggestions For Improvement of the University? Of those who answered this question, many offered ideas and suggestions . Among them were these : better health service; emphasis on discipline; help students attain better knowledge of "general subjects"; a course in labor-management relations ; post-graduate courses; improved physical facilities; stronger programs in a number of fields; more active alumni ; more philosophy for Catholic students ; more publicity; continued strengthening of liberal arts program; better registration procedures. Do You Think The ALUMNUS Serves Its Purpose? Comments here included these : "coverage seems rather limited with respect to alumni - the same few are repeatedly listed"; "could be issued more often"; "covers such a small percentage of the class"; "is centered around alumni living in Dayton-there's very little about those in other cities."
