THE ADMINISTRATION

HAVE 'NE ARRIVED? By ELMER C. LACKNER, S.M. Vice President for Public Relations

T

HE MANY visitors and guests who have been coming on to the campus in recent years have uniformly marvelled at the great physical transformation and appearance of the University. Alumni, even more so than others, because of the contrast with conditions, five, ten and more years ago when they were students, are able to appreciate more fully the extent of the changes that have occurred. It is not at all surprising that the transformation should be so evident and so striking when some simple facts are borne in mind. The enrollment in 1946 (even then inflated by GI's) was approximately 2,000 ; today this figure is close to 7,000! Twenty years ago also, the physical valuation of the plant and buildings amounted to perhaps $4,000,000; today the books show an appraisal of $38,000,000! It is estimated that on an ordinary school day during the first and second terms of this year, fifteen thousand (15,000) students, faculty, staff, and visitors entered the Kennedy Memorial Union ; there was no such facility in 1946. Not nearly so eye-catching are the changes and upgrading that have taken place in other areas of the University's life. Today, the University operates on a three-term plan in place of the old two-semester program with which most of our Alumni are familiar ; the calibre of the student body has been upgraded through higher admission requirements resulting in a drop in the freshman mortality rate from 32% to 18 % in the last 5 years; faculty improvement has kept pace with the general uplifting of standards through encouragement of further studies, research, publications and the constant addition of well qualified and degreed personnel; more sophisticated equipment and library build-up and additions have aided in the development of a rising intellectual atmosphere ; lively discussions and the broadening of, communications between faculty, administration, students and the general public are an ever-increasing part of a healthy development that really has no limits. Yes, and the costs of the movement have also gone up from a rate of $9 per credit hour in 1946 to an equivalent of nearly $30 per credit hour today! The spiritual panel in this picture of development certainly has not been neglected. The opportunities for an intelligent appreciation of the meaning of their religion to faculty and students are perhaps most evident in the daily schedule of 5 Masses available for their convenience. Contrast this with the one Mass per week, other than Sunday, which all Catholic students were expected to attend! The theology department, the Religion in Life Series, and numerous occasions for dialogue with Catholic, Protestant and Jewish master visitors have all contributed to an understanding of the ecumenism fostered by the Church and to a strong desire to participate in the resulting aggiornamento. What has been said to this point tells us in a nut-shell where we are at the moment. Amid all the wonderment of Alumni and friends at the current picture, there inevitably arises the question "Where are we going?" With the local

developments in higher education in recent years involving the establishment of Wright State University and the projected community college, our own sights need refocusing to adjust to the changing conditions. Actually the adjustment has been in process for some years now and various plans are under consideration to enable us to realize the major concepts that have developed. In the first place, we believe that our efforts should more and more be directed to make the University a quality institution, with a well-rounded program based essentially on our present curricula. This envisions the strengthening of our masters degrees program now in operation and a gradual progression into the doctorate field in those areas where we can develop the necessary strengths in faculty and equipment. It certainly also includes continuing improvement of every undergraduate department now existing and does not exclude the creation of new departments within this framework. Hopefully, at least some of our departments will develop to a point where they will be in excellence as synonymous with the University of Dayton as the "piety and basketball," facetiously written, some years ago. If the emphasis is to be on quality, there must necessarily be restrictions on numbers of students to be serviced. In this direction, the University for several years now has limited the admission of freshmen students to 2,000 and plans to hold to this policy for at least a reasonable period into the future . This policy has naturally resulted in the acquisition of a higher average level of freshmen because of the selection from the great numbers of applicants. The rapid growth in numbers since 1946 required the rapid multiplication of facilities that brought on the striking changes in the appearance of the campus. But the physical provisions noted above, as significant as they have been, have not kept up with the needs to service a community that numbers approximately 10,000 people. We see and feel the need for more student and some faculty housing, for greater library accommodations, for concentrated and expanded research and engineering space, for cultural and recreational developments and outlets, for religious services, and for a number of supporting facilities (not the least of which is more land itself) to service the entire campus. On a conservative basis, the realization of the needs outlined will require another $20-25 million dollars! Eventual use or disposition of our West Campus (former VA hospital), the possible use of part of our East Campus (Mt. St. John) , the development and location of a freshman college perhaps separated from the main campus, expanded facilities for intercollegiate sports-all are merely a few of the problems confronting the Administration at the present time. Answers will be found eventually and , in the meantime, we urge you who have, been helping to continue your encouragement and support and you who have not, to begin helping us and your fellow-Alumni to make the University a better place for the rising generation.

Ohio Governor James M. Cox wrote: "To Miriam F ORMER Rosenthal: An institution- the real public value of which will only be properly appraised in the calm judgement of time, August 15, 1937." The inscription on the plaque in the University of Dayton's Miriam Hall, named after the late Miss Rosenthal, read by Rev. George Barrett, University Vice President: "As a lasting memorial to her friendship, her inspiration, her counsel, and her generous assistance in the development of the University of Dayton. Her leadership and devotion to the cause of the University for more than ten years made possible the complex of four buildings in this area of the campus. "Her influence in behalf of the University was most evident in her fine relations with the business leaders of the greater Dayton area. In honoring her, the University salutes and expresses appreciation to them." The March dedication dinner, held in the John F. Kennedy

the editor

Joe Mclaughlin

When Brother Lackner, Gene Schill, and I discussed the trading of jobs last March only two thoughts came to my mind. How would I handle general news, I thought, after most of my recent 30 years had been spent in sports? There were excursions into the general field from a news story standpoint and certainly I had the qualifications from the standpoint of publicity. There shouldn't be any trouble in this respect. But, my mind raced on, there are many aspects of the general publicity job which were almost totally foreign to me. How would I learn to handle these phases of the position after settling in one area, sports, for so long a period. Then I thought of my wonderful mother. "God gave you a brain, use it," she would have said. Besides, I had discussed all phases of the University with Dick Beach, Schill, Brother Lackner and many others during my nine years as Director of Sports Publicity. I even had written some of the academic or general stories for my publications. Certainly I have made many friends throughout the University and they should be willing to help. So what are you concerned over, McLaughlin? This brought me to my health. Much had been made of it when the announcement of the job switching had become known in the newspapers and on radio and television locally. Certainly this was a consideration when Brother Lackner discussed the move with Gene and me. I'm guilty of making much of it also. But really McLaughlin, I thought, you accomplished your work through all the pressures of recent football and basketball seasons, and while the long hours and constant traveling made you weary, you got your job done. You wanted to stop traveling after 24 consecutive years of it so look at the situation realistically. There'll be little traveling in the new job. There will be game pressures only if you choose to make them so and certainly there should be more weekends to yourself and with your family. Who could ask for more. So to work it is for me. I look forward to the challenges of general publicity. Father Roesch and Brother Lackner will keep me ad-

vised of the University's big stories and its policies (when they want me to know). Father Barrett will be a great asset on the cultural and student extracurricular activities. Father Lees will brief me on the academic progress of your school. There will be many others who can give me the necessary assistance. I hesitate to mention any more names for fear I will miss one or two. It always happens. I hope to write this Editor's column as often as I can for the Alumnus. I feel it is a way you can get to know me and I can reach you with some new information and even bring some fond memories to you. If you asked me today what form this column would take, if any, I can't tell you. Perhaps, some letters from you can help me write an occasional column. Certainly many events, and believe me there are many, around the University will serve as good material for a column by the Editor. Or I hope to go back into the old Exponents, Flyer News, Daytonians and other publications to revive some of the wonderful happenings of a school which has existed for 116 years. There is no point, for the most part, to go back 116 years but certainly little tidbits from the past 60 years or so might interest you. I've done much research on the University's athletic program, particularly football and basketball, but now it's time to see what the students were doing in other areas of University life. If you want to do a little reminiscing maybe I can lend part of the column to you. It would be a lazy man's way of writing a piece. If you have something of length to relate we have established a column called: "Be Our Guest". We're not sure what we'll do in that area but certainly it will be something of interest to our alumni. Keep that in mind. I wanted one of yours, Mason Benner, to write the first Be Our Guest epistle. He had graduated from UD in 1932. But, as you know, God took him unto himself last April. I had looked forward to adjoining offices with Mason. I enjoyed his company. He wrote many fine articles for my sports publications. I always thought of Mason as the man with the quiet temper. He seemed almost embarrassed when he was an(Continued on Page 11)

Our University secretaries did it for the second year in a row. They staged Bosses Night. They fed us well but, facetiously, the food on the buffet table (for bosses only) was thrown (literally) together. It was a little neater on the tables for secretaries and special guests. Wives were invited. The Sees didn't want scandal. Ye Sees also forced, again, some bosses to appear in the Variety (?) Show. (See Pictures). There were laughs galore . For instance, Jack Riley as Father Burns: "We're putting in a drive-in confessional and will call it 'Toot and Tell' ." OR, Riley again: "We're going to have some Chug, Chug Girls. You know, that's Go Go Girls over 40." And so it went. There was a serious side although it was hard to find . Maggie Fitzgibbons, Women's Editor and columnist of the Dayton Daily News, and Mrs. Charles Burke, president of the American Business Women's Association, Beta Chapter, were judges of the Boss of the Year award . Robert Paulick, '50, now of the UD Research Institute, was chosen for the Boss honor after his secretary's letter was judged as the best among the entries. Mary Tuite (know her?) was named the campus' V.I.P. of '66 by the Bosses Night committee.

STATE OF THE UNION IN ATHLETICS By THOMAS J. FRERICKS Director of Athletics

Many questions, pertinent to our athletics, are asked the personnel of our department from time to time by our many loyal followers. The purpose of this article is to serve as a report to you of the direction we are pursuing in the athletic program. Much work is being done by the coaches, other departmental personnel and the players themselves to stabilize the strengths, remove the weaknesses and enlarge the total athletic program. The most important product of the various competitive teams is the student-athlete himself. The coaches are very concerned with recruiting young men who have good academic as well as athletic qualifications. The National Collegiate Athletic Association has a new minimum academic requirement ruling that a young man must pass, before we can offer him student aid. High school class rank and the results of the college board scores are used to determine his academic potential. A young man who ranks in the top fifty percent of his graduating class and scores over 800 on the boards would satisfy the minimum requirements. Coaches Don Donoher and John McVay have recruited young men whose average class rank is in the top forty percent and who average 960 on the tests. Statistics compiled from the past seven years indicate that seven of every ten recruited football players never graduated and as a result had only terminal experience with the team. Stability of player personnel is extremely important, as the coaches develop the experiences and depth that are so essential for successful teams. Once a student-athlete arrives on campus, much work is done to counsel, guide and direct him to his maximum academic and athletic achievement. Study tables and tutors are utilized to help prepare him for the academic requirements in his course of study. This program has been in effect since January 1965 and the results to date have been very gratifying. Only five of one hundred and eighteen athletes have been lost to the teams for competition in the 1966-67 school year. The maximum benefits of this guidance program will not be realized until after four years of successful recruiting and personal attention. As we attempt to develop future scheduling for all seven of the intercollegiate teams, we are guided by the intention of competing against teams of comparable means. The two biggest factors to be considered are the size of the opponents' coaching staff and the type and size of their scholarship program. There is much interest in seeing our teams compete on a league basis. There are two fine leagues in competition in the midwest in our caliber of play - the Mid-American and Missouri Valley conferences. At present we find many advantages for our style of program in playing as an independent. We enjoy though, the competition against many of these fine teams, without the league affiliations. In fooball we will play five of the Mid-American Conference schools Miami, Bowling Green. Ohio University, Kent

6

State and Toledo. Games against Xavier, Louisville and Cincinnati supplement these five games. All of these teams have developed fine programs and are within reasonable travel distances. The remaining two games afford us a chance to bring in other teams and travel to various sections of the country. An exchange of games with Temple University and Southern Illinois has been worked into the 1967 and 1968 schedules. Coach McVay and his staff will engage in their second campaign this fall. In the short time they have been at the University they have clearly started developing those basic ingredients so essential in any successful program. Young men with a purpose and physically ready to play this demanding game are showing up in numbers. The recruited freshmen class for next fall comes with impressive credentials. In basketball we try to maintain a fifteen-at-home and elevenaway schedule of the twenty-six allotted games. Because of our interest in having a real representative home schedule, from now on we will play in a holiday tournament on the road, only every other year. This will allow us to play teams on the road in the odd years, that will return games to the fieldhouse the following year. The University of Cincinnati will make a Fieldhouse appearance in the 1966-67 season and St. Louis University will play in Dayton in the 1967-68 year. The other fine teams - Xavier, DePaul, Louisville, Miami, Loyola of Chicago, Memphis State, Detroit, and St. Joseph's, that have been such a big part of our basketball history, will continue on our schedules. The basketball team in the past two years has enjoyed great success. Its forty-five and thirteen won and lost record, along with first round wins in the NCAA tournament, speaks quite well for the players and their coaches, Donoher and Grigsby. This past season saw the baseball, golf, tennis, soccer, and ice hockey teams compile a forty-two won and twenty-eight loss record for a 60% average. These teams compete without the benefit of scholarship programs, except in an instance or two when aid is donated. The young men who make up the personnel of these teams come from a wide variety of backgrounds and interest. We believe that intercollegiate athletics provide many benefits to those who participate and cannot be achieved anywhere else. It is a continual struggle to put forth one's best, within the framework of set rules and regulations. For this reason we would like to see additional sports such as wrestling, cross country, track and swimming added to the program and therefore an even greater number of young men will be exposed to the advantages of intercollegiate athletics. Over two hundred and twenty-five athletes now represent their (Continued on Page 15)

All A's All The Way

NUN TOP OF CLASS OF UD GRADUATES By Mary Ellen Wolfe Dayton Journal Herald Staff Writer A little redhead who was Queen of the May in kindergarten and went on to ballet lessons will graduate at the top of her class at the University of Dayton tomorrow. Only now her red hair doesn't show. And there are no more pirouettes and posturing. The little girl is now a nun- 23-year-old Sister Constance Marie Clark, effervescent extrovert who switched majors from science and math to philosophy midway through college. She is the only one of the 759 graduates to make all A's all the way.

*

*

Did being a young nun on a campus which is predominantly male cause any problems? "I didn't know what to expect," says Sister Constance Marie. "There are non-Catholic students here. One even asked me for a date. He was from a small town and didn't know he shouldn't. I explained things to him. "All in all, the students have been really wonderful. I have felt very much at ease with them. A real comradeship developed. "Many had been taught by sisters in school and were very respectful. I have had doors opened for me although we were all going the same place. Some go out of their way to open doors ... but we open plenty of doors ourselves." Sister Constance Marie's biggest problem- and it was a problem for the whole Sisters of Notre Dame convent- was this: How does a nun wear an academic hood over her veil and habit?

*

Sister Constance Marie Clark, right, was 4 .0 for four years. .. . Sister Michaella (left) I guess I'll just think," she said. For Sister Constance Marie's family, the commencement ceremony will be of double significance as rules of the order allow the young nun to see her family only once a year ordinarily. "We always said she was born talking," reminisced her mother, Mrs. James F. Clark of 1324 Laurelwood. "She was always a very conscientious student . . . at Holy Angels school and then at Julienne high school."

*

*

At Julienne, teenaged Connie had all A's but one- a B in typing - and wound up second in the class. She also won distinction as a violinist, as a ballet dancer, and as a swimmer. "Now I'm going back there on a little mission -to observe classes," says Sister Constance Marie. "Only my violin teacher is still there. But I've always wanted to go back." Next fall she'll go back to U.D. as a graduate assistant in philosophy and wi11 work for a master's degree. "I study a lot. I'm not the kind of person who can walk in and grasp something immediately," says Sister Constance Marie. "But I am really enthusiastic about my studies."

For now we would like you to see, in part, what the school's FM radio station has done over the period of a year. Guided by George Biersack, Chairman of the Communication Arts Department, and Joe Burns, the Program Director, the station continues to grow spiritually, materially and culturally.

A LIBERTY BELL FOR A ROSE Brother Albert H . Rose, S.M., '37, was accorded a unique honor in May. The longtime UD political science professor was the recipient of the Liberty Bell Award by the Dayton Bar Association. This honor goes to a non-lawyer for outstanding public service. Presented at the 45th annual meeting of the DBA, Brother Rose was cited for promoting a better understanding of our form of government. Strong factors in his selection were his constant encouragement of greater respect for law and the courts and his contribution to the effective functioning of our institutions of government. Brother Rose has been very active with the DBA, cooperating with the courts and the association in helping to start an honor release bail bond reform program locally. They were impressed with his ability to place senior students in Jaw offices where they could earn money toward their education and also receive college credit for the work. The full pre-Jaw program at the University was another project developed by Brother Rose. He has been active in

They chose the special football season ticket thankyou party April 30 to exchange office keys. As McLaughlin, the MC who also was honored with gifts by the Athletic Department that night put it: "Gene and I couldn't think of anything real dramatic. We have to settle for this occasion to publicly exchange office keys to dramatize our 'momentous' change in positions." The two men started in their new jobs on Monday, May 2.

Frank, who was president of the 路senior class and student council in the 1942-43 school year, accepted the post despite his many duties as assistant vice president of Winters National Bank and Trust Company. Cy Laughter, president of the Laughter Company, turned the reins over to Doorley after heading the 1965 campaign. His drive last summer was the most successful in UD history. The workers sold 4,390 season tickets. Laughter, at a special dinner in April, facetiously challenged Doorley and his crew to top the record. Jack Brown, the school's Finance Director of Athletics, pointed to the 5,611 seats which could be sold on a season-ticket basis in the North and South stands. Doorley was chairman of the 1961 annual UD Support Campaign and served on the 1962 combined colleges drive for UD and Wright State. Door ley has been preceded by R. William Patterson, UD '29, in 1958; John Chaney, '53, in 1959; Pete Thaler in 1960; Bob Butler, '42, in 1961 and 1962; Dave and Sam Hall , 1963 ; Vic Cassano in 1964 and Mr. Laughter.

It only came out as a last resort to relieve his tensions. They've laid him to rest on a little hill overlooking the University. Mason would have liked that. He loved his alma mater. He had traveled to many places, savored success in those locales and had an interesting life. He was glad to get home to the University and city of Dayton in 1955. Then he felt a compulsion to try something new. He still had some of the adventurous spirit. He left the city for a short time again. He was so happy to return in 1965.

In a sense Mason came home to die. He didn't know it. None of us did. He has left us. many a legacy, some of which were his wonderful personality, his zest and ability for work, and, lastly, his efforts on the C . H. Gosiger Health Center, now being constructed on the campus. I'll miss him. I had hoped to benefit from his vast knowledge of our fields. It may sound corny, but I really feel he is looking over us from that little hillside. He was a wonderful person - a fine "old grad". With that thought I leave you for the summer. Have a good one. I'll see what I can do for you in the fall. Your help can make the Alumnus better. Drop us a line.

HAVE JOINED YOU ... The Alumni Association pays tribute to the honors st,udents at the University's 116th commencement exercises in the Fieldhouse on Sunday , April 24. There were 47 graduating seniors who carried these honors into the world beyond the University of Dayton. We also introduce the President's Mace used for the first time in graduaN"on exercises. Here is the description of the Mace as it appeared in tJ1e commencement program:

THE PRESIDENT'S MACE In the Middle Ages the mace was carried by a knight into battle, but, originally, it was a dignitary's staff and the ensign of his authority. The mace of a University has this original significance, namely, the symbol of authority, and it is carried before the President in academic processions. The mace of the University of Dayton, employed for the first time in these Spring commencement exercises of 1966, was designed and executed by Assistant Professor Louis A. Weber, S.M., of the Department of Fine Arts. The University's coat of arms, sand-blasted on a piece of stained glass, is framed in strap iron covered with puddled brass. The tubing is aluminum and the color is anodized. The red and blue ribbons, the University's colors. give a tone of festivity to the commencement exercises.

AVERAGED 60% WINS ... Spring sports teams had their greatest year since the early 1950's. All three teams, golf, tennis and baseball, finished above 50 per cent. Golf and tennis made it with 11-10 and 7-6 marks but baseball, behind Jim Hoover's coaching, emerged with a 12-2 slate. The diamond team was heading for a record winning season but rain stopped the run. The 1904 team won 14 games and no team has gone that far since. Hoover's squad had 12 victories in the record and five games remaining. All five were rained out. Baseball got fine hurling out of several pitchers. Mike Spehar, Jack Nickell, Jim Schaeffer, Dick Andruskiewicz, Fred Prince and Jim Schoen were the key ones. Terry Elliott, a sophomore, finished the season with a .500 batting average which led the nation's college hitters at the time. John Vascek did his usual fine job as catcher while Tom Murphy hit six homers over the right fie ld fence and was voted the most impro\(ed player. Elliott was the MVP. Golf started in a flash with six wins and three losses but No. 1 man, Mike Zimmerman, hurt his knee playing pick-up basketball and the team was in trouble the rest of the year. Zimmerman eventually had an operation but has two years left. His play stamps him as a future golfing star. Barry Reed was voted the most valuable player and Phil McKenzie the most improved at the second spring sports banquet. Shaw Em mons, in his seventh season, had a young team with only two vets in Ron Scheper and Bob Mashiotf. T hey were joined by youngsters Bob Krebs, Mike Dahm, Rich Hale and Dave Hawkins in the singles. Dahm, a Vinnie Westendorf Scholarship netter like Scheper, had a good year in singles -with an 8-4 record while surprising Krebs came up·with a 9-3 mark. Scheper had a bad ankle part of the season but did a good job in doubles with Dahm. They were 6-1. All these men are back next spring. Dahm was the MVP and Krebs the most improved. The team had a six-match winning streak, two short of the record.

Sports Corner ... (Continued from Page 6)

University in the seven intercollegiate sports and are given instruction from coaches who are dedicated to putting the finest teams possible in competition. The intramural program is designed to provide a recreational, as well as a physical benefit to the members of the general student body. Participation is held in basketball, touch football , softball, golf, and tennis. Over one thousand students participated in the basketball phase alone. Expanded facilities, someday, will allow for an even more far reaching program. This project has merited much discussion and planning within the department, for what we hope will become an eventual reality. Finances dictate, to a great extent, the growth possibilities of the overall program. Our biggest source of revenue is the sale of tickets to the football and basketball games. The support that you, our fans have given, has been most encouraging over the years and we are indebted to you for this financial help. Our operational expenses continue to mount. Since 1959, they have gone up one hundred and forty-five thousand dollars while the revenue has increased only about two thirds as much. Ticket price increases, charges for parking, etc. are held off until it becomes an absolute necessity to offset operational expense搂. We trust you will understand and continue to support our teams. May I close this short resume of althletics at the University by saying that everyone from top administration through coaches and players is doing his utmost to present an athletic program of which every alumnus will be extremely proud. It will take time to put all the parts together and your financial and moral support is always greatly appreciated. Please let us hear from you in regard to any phase of our operation which merits constructive criticism or where you directly or indirectly might lend a helping hand.

DIOCESE OF E V ANS VI L L E EVANSVILLE, INDIANA

219 N.W. THIRD STREET

47708 CHANCERY OFFICE

May 22, 1966 MR. JosEPH McLAUGHLIN

Director, General Publicity University of Dayton Dayton, Ohio 45409

Dear Mr. McLaughlin: A very hackneyed expression that was used in -practically all the congratulatory notes I received from my fellow priests in the Archdiocese, "I go with mixed emotions." After working part time. in the Diocese of Evansville for six months, I have come to know something of its solid Catholic fiber and with that a love for the Church of Evansville has developed and deepened. But nothing can ever break or weaken the deep love for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati which has provided me with everything good I have en joyed and might be. The recitation of these blessings could form an endless litany but to dare mention a few - my exemplary Catholic parents and birth in the Gem City; baptism at Holy Trinity, Catholic Education through the grades, High School and College all under the direction of the Society of Mary; my priestly ordination and episcopal consecration for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, the privilege to serve the Church in Cincinnati for over a quarter of a century in the Diocesan Curia and a busy city parish. A half century centered in one area forges ties that are not easily broken. I must truthfully admit I fully understand what it means to be the Shepherd of a Diocese, but I never aspired to this office. I felt a sense of perfect fulfillment and satisfaction in the offices I was called to fill in Cincinnati. Thus the mantel of full and ultimate responsibility in a Diocese truthfully gives me a feeling of fear, made more powerful by my years of working so intimately in Diocesan Administration. But this fear is overcome by a strong faith in the power of the prayers of all those whose mutual love I have enjoyed through the years. This coupled with the certain knowledge that it is but the fulfillment of God's will that impels me to respond to Peter's call to Evansville - and Christ provides whatever is needed to implement His Divine plan for souls. One might ask, in so far as it is possible, what one thing stands out most powerfully in your life as worthy of particular mention; my response without hesitation would be- the always happy relationship with the wonderful clergy, diocesan and religious of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. This has been a golden thread through the years of work here and never do I expect to find anything to equal it anywhere. I recognize this clergy as the special blessing of all the faithful of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. Sincerely yours in Christ,

QJÂŁ1:Bishop-elect of Evansville
