The chance to walk through the University grounds during an average school day, to sit in the Kennedy cafeteria and snack bar and talk with several students was worthy of the time spent. The students I met impressed me as level-headed, sincere adults who want an education, more control over their future, and the opportunity to meet people who will really listen and hear what they have to say. Faculty, administrators, and counselors who only repeat the "often repeated" and who fail to offer new ideas and challenges to the students' intelligence and imagination tend to alienate the student not only from the faculty but from the entire university. Radical elements in the student body are accepted by the students as part of the total scene but are not necessarily accepted as "de facto" spokesmen for their group. I define a radical student as one who, when viewed with the total student body, is extreme in their ideas but not an anarchist or one who is destructive of another's rights and property. A characteristic that impressed me deeply is the unbiased attitude of these students. They want to hear the other person's viewpoint to test their own. The student society appears to suffer in the same way as the total society, viz., apathy of the many and concern by the few. Many students, they admit, are at school to play and not to study. Even so, I am led to believe that students today, as compared to those of a single generation ago, are probably more concerned with today's real world problems and really want to do something about them. They will not automatically accept ideas, institutions or people simply because they are there as part of the establishment. Let's face it, past performance alone is no justification for continued existence.

To be a success in the eyes of today's students, a University apparently must be "the place" where the students can say to themselves, "the university is where I experienced increased maturity" and not "suffered continued adolescence." If the university accepts this challenge, and I hope they are sincerely attempting to do so, then the student should be given more opportunity to make meaningful decisions on those things that are directly influencing his environment. We were briefed on the Union Activities Organization and learned that it is a group of volunteer students who plan the activities in the Kennedy Union. Since its programs often include nationally, or internationally, known speakers, adults often attend the programs. We met with Kathy Bergman, a junior who handled the speakers bureau for the UAO. She was most impressive because of her mature and objective evaluation of current issues of the day. This girl was extremely cognizant of the educational value that all elements of society can, each in his own way, contribute to total society. The ability and maturity of Kathy and others to recognize those portions of the radicals ' arguments that have validity, or on the contrary, those which are not valid, was reassuring. Her program of bringing in controversial lecturers has b een accepted by the student body and by a strong portion of the UD community. The students' ability to take the good and reject the bad from these speakers should be adequate testimony to Kathy's ability and adultness. I also had a discussion with Sam Jackson, a black student with the UAO, regarding the suspension of two Negro Olympic team members for their "Black Power" symbolism during medal ceremonies at the games in Mexico. Although our viewpoints differed,

the discussion was open and candid. Kathy and Sam were equally impressive in their own right. A tour of and luncheon at Bergamo, the Christian Center for Renewal on the University's East Campus (Mt. St. John's), left me with several deep impressions. Here is a type of facility that can physically support and complement any aggressive program that has as its goal increased dialogue with all responsible elements of society. It is the kind of facility a University could utilize to complement its programs directed toward the community. I can envision a Bergamo, which has all the necessary eating, sleeping and meeting facilities, as a place for the University's alumni. Here they could have meaningful programs both related to the University and their field of business. I have the feeling that if the University displayed a sincere interest in such a facility, the alumni would help to support its operation once they realized its value. That value, in my mind,

represents versatility. Even families can be accommodated for special programs. Father John Kelley and Bill Wiggenhorn, both of Bergamo, seem to be extremely capable people. Their task of relating to the community what Bergamo has to offer will surely be successful if they receive any reasonable amount of support. Perhaps, the high point of the tour was a talk by Father Frank Maloney. His concepts of the moral man being the good organization man, and the "ethics of abundance " rather than " ethics of scarcity" as the relevent ethics of the day were thought provoking. He conveyed to us other interesting thoughts such as: -Business and its superior abilities to acquire any knowledge and its equal talent in organization are the best answers to today's world problems. -Karl Marx' theories have been substantially utilized and are currently accepted today under our " capitalistic society." (much overworked term) -Private ownership of property is gradually being abolished. -Management men should have an "equity right" in today's business; and a share in the security related to this vested right. -Marx erroneously envisioned an eventual twotiered society (the state and the people) in which the state would own all production property. He erred to the extent that society has b ecome threetiered (state, industrial corporations and the people with property ownership passing to corporations). -If "business" has not been able to recruit the better, more imaginative student, the underlying reason is probably because "business" has not carried the message (to the student) of the challenge that is at its doorstep . The sophisticated business management team of today, with its talent and ability, can be the answer to most of the world's problems. The student is not above the money but he's looking beyond it. Unless there is a tie-in to the world's social problems by the

3


business community, the student will go elsewhere. - Responsibility for making known the challenge that faces the business world also rests equally with the University. The University must present to the student the "avant garde" in business concepts along with a relevant business program of study that will stir the student's imagination and create the initial desire to meet the business community's world challenge. Dean Hoben, in commenting on another facet of this problem, stated that a need exists today to provide a means to enable the time-pressured executive to also participate in a reading program that offers new challenges in business ideas, concepts and theories not available in current periodicals. Dean Hoben envisions a University and business research-oriented program of selected readings that is constantly abreast of the latest developments to be found in our institutions of higher learning. The service to be provided would be a periodical from the University Press that would outline in capsule form the heart of noted texts, e.g. , "The American Challenge," by Cer Von Schribert, thus enabling the executive to be informed in a much broader business and nonbusiness spectrum. In my opinion this type of contact and dialogue between the University and the business community is the precise approach necessary to create the improved

image the University is continually seeking. In summary, my impressions of the University and the students of today are complimentary. The opportunity to come back to the University was impressive, educational and thought provoking. I feel this reunion has drawn me somewhat closer to the University. But how many alumni are able to avail themselves of this type of an experience? The "reunion" to me was an outstanding success b ecause I have received new ideas and concepts. But what about those alumni whose apathy or "image h angups" of the University kept them away? Have they lost out on a vital source of growth? When the alumni lose an opportunity to grow and develop, does the University suffer in the same way and to the same extent? Thus, in my opinion, the greatest challenge facing the University of Dayton today is the development of an effective alumni organization and related programs that will create the incentive to draw these people back to campus. It means a willingness to invest many dollars now without the immediate expectation of return. It means hiring capable professional people who will develop and coordinate, with the various academic disciplines, social, business and continuing educational programs. It means competing to achieve a position of influence and prominence in the life of the alumni who only think of the University as a small part of his, or her, past rather than a continuing integral part of their present and future.

Elmer Lackner, S.M., Vice President for Public Relations.


"BEST" FOR DONOHER

Dan Sadlier, Co-captain copped many honors.

" It is generally accepted, however, that 20 wins or not, Don Danaher has turned in his best coaching job this season." Thus wrote Jim Zofkie, '56, Dayton Journal Herald sports writer, when the 1968-69 University of Dayton basketball team completed its regular season last March with a 20-6 record. The subsequent first-round NCAA tournament loss to Colorado State did not minimize this accolade. Danaher, who has 111 victories and 35 losses for a five-year coaching percentage of 75, didn't possess what is generally referred to as a "blue chip player" in the recent season. Seven-foot Henry Finkel carried the attack for two seasons and Don May, who

played as a sophomore with Finkel, took up the burden as a junior and senior. Both received All-American mention. In contrast, Danaher had to develop balance on this squad. While forward Dan Sadlier turned into a take-charge player after the first month of the campaign, Danaher could never quite settle on a permanent starting lineup. He used such players a Ken May, Tom Crosswhite, Jack Keehan and George Schloemer in the other forward spot, Dan Obrovac, Ned Sharpenter, and George Janky at center, and the Gottschall twins, Jim and Jerry; and Steven Turnwald at guard. None was consistent. It took a juggling act, and probably some prayers, on the part of Danaher to develop victories on a per-game basis. It was a season in which even the kind critics had a chance to mentally dictate the moves of each player. "Obrovac and Janky didn't move quick enough . Their rebound timing was not good. May and Crosswhite

Jim Gottschall, basketball's top student.

were not taking the pressure off Sadlier. The guards aren't getting the ball into the front line with the split-second man euver of a Bobby Hooper." Yet Danaher could never say that this team didn't play over its talents. True they were bombed by Louisville (69-84) and Cincinnati (60-96) but they won games they had no business winning including the second match with Louisville (69-67) . They lost to Davidson in the final second (63-64) and beat Loyola of Chicago in the same manner (70-69 overtime). They h ad trouble against Rice (58-55) and Chattanooga (6158) but bombed Bowling Green (81-60), Miami (83-55) Providence (90-63) and Niagara (100-70). They squeaked by Detroit (64-62) and DePaul (86-83, 63-57) but faded against Western Kentucky (65-70) and Florida State (71-79). While this doesn 't cover the entire season it gives the tone of a very tough season for Da naher. He could have similar problems in the 1969-70 campaign.

FOOTBALL CLINIC John McVay and his UD football coaching staff conducted their fifth annual football coaching clinic in the Kennedy Union on April 19. The spring game was to follow the morning-long session but poor weather ruled out the tilt. However, 147 coaches from Dayton area high schools gave the clinic its largest attendance in history. Coach Lee Trussell of Baldwin Wallace talked of his Run and Shoot Offense while the UD staff covered the many fundamentals of football.

GRIDDER GRADS Former UD footballers were participants in the football clinic. These young men are coaching in the Dayton area. They are, left to right, Gary Preisser, '68, Fairmont West; Billy Mayo, '68, Roth; Pat Connor, '60, new head coach at Chaminade; Jim Spoerl, '57, Carroll; Tom Skowron, '67, Carroll; and Frank Chew, '66, Carroll.

25 FOR MARY

I•

Mary Shay, Alumni Secretary, has been 25 years with the University of Dayton. Since her graduation in 1944 Mary has remained with her alma mater, particularly devoted to its alumni. The National Alumni Association and its Greater Dayton Chapter recognized this fact on Sunday, May 18, when an anniversary mass was held in the Immaculate Conception Chapel and a luncheon in the John F. Kennedy Memorial Union. Mary was overjoyed when Jerry Westendorf, Alumni President, presented her with a gift of a two-week trip to Hawaii. She also received thousands of cards and letters from alumni around the world. A set of match luggage will accompany her on the trip. A Hawaiian lei came from David Tom in Hawaii, who was 1944 class president. A citation from the national alumni association was another honor. Jim Stanton, President of the Cleveland City Council, a UD grad, sent a Resolution of Congratulations signed

Mary near tears here.

Communion from Father Renneker. Aunt Mary is behind Mary.

Mary accepts lei from Mary Ann Finke Henz. Dave Tom sent it from Hawaii.

Packages and letters galore.

by Mayor Carl Stokes, representing the many alumni in that northern Ohio city. And finally Rev. George Renneker, S.M., UD President who hired Mary in 1944, started proceedings to have Mary accepted as an honorary affiliate of the Society of Mary. Final approval comes from Rome. The party was attended by invited guests from the national alumni board, its past presidents, Greater Dayton Chapter, a representative of each of the 25 classes and members of the UD Public Relations staff and administration.

Charley Graham busses Mary.

THE HONORARY DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF HUMANITIES TO LOUIS WOZ AR Education is a broad term and comprises a vast fie ld of persona l and collective endeavor . It may be strictly academic or broadly human . It may take place in a fo r mal classroom or i n the wide r the a tre of dally li ving . While this assembly has convened this morning to appl aud the achievements of the graduating class of 1969, it seems fitt i ng that there be p ause to cons ider the accompli shments of a member of th e Dayton Community in the broad school of life. President and General Manager of the Tait Manufac turing Company, well as Chairman of the Board of the Refined Water Corporation of America, the Brady Tank, Inc . , the Century Elect1·ic M otor Company, Mul ti - Flo, Inc . , t he A & C Pump C ompany, and Tait - KSB, Mr. Louis Woza r has, for almost two decades , lent his time and talent to the gene ral improvement of the City of Dayton. His activities in this connection have been diverse and manifold . The record of his public participation in the affia rs of Dayton looks like a formidable bibliography . It would be tedious and perhaps of no purpose at · this moment to read the long list of his activities , past and present. It i s doubtless be tte r to summa rize it afte r a fashion . Mr. Wo za r is currently the Pres ident of three large o r ganiza ti ons . Let us add in passing t hat he has also been President of the D ay ton Area Chambe r of Commerce, the Dayton Area Economic Council, the Water Systems Council, the United Fund , Inc ., the Rotary Club of Dayton, Junior Achievement of Dayton, and the Miami Valley Council of the Boy Scouts of America . At this moment, Mr. Woza r is also Chairman of the Board of six manufacturing companies, ten Social and Civic organi zations , a timely one of whi ch is the Urban Renewal Committee of the Area Progress Council. He holds an executive membershi p in eighteen governing boards, including the A i r Force Museum Foundation, the D a yton Council on World Affairs, the Mental Health Association of M ontgome r y County and the Montgomery County Socie t y for Cancer Control. M oreover , Mr . Wozar has been either direc tor or executi ve membe r of many civic organizations in the past, among them the U nited Neg r o College Fund, Resea r ch Council of Miami Valley Hospital , the Da yton Art Institute, Barney Children ' s Medical Cent er and the American M edical Research Foundation. In 1959, Management Methods M agazine ac clai med Mr. Wozar 1 s managerial style by selecting him as one of fifteen business executives in the country to receive its ''Outstanding M anagement Citati on. 11 The s tory of the Progress of Tait Manu fac t uri ng under his l eadership was the s ubj ect of the cover article of the magazi ne. He has been the recipient of s u ch o utsta nding awa rds a s the 11Good Human Helations Award" from Dale Carnegie Inter na tional, the " Outstanding M anagement C ita t ion, "from Management M ethods M aga zine, and the 1 1 Citi ze n s Legion of Honor Award 11 , fro m the Presidents' Club of Dayton. It is no less than a m azing that Mr . W ozar has accomplished so much and done it so well. A doer, not a t a l ker, he would seem to be a man close to the he art of the younger generation . l-Ie knows and app r eciates the meaning of service. Despite the fac t that he himself was educated in the school of experience, with an assis t from correspondence courses a nd evening cl asses , the record of Mr. Wozar speaks fo r itself and the message of his humanitaria n endeavors rings loud and clear.

THE HONORARY DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF HUMANITI ES

Mr . nnd M r s . Mead we r e blessed with six children, one of whom gave his life for his country in World War II. Twenty beloved grandchildren now help Mrs . Mead maintain that youthfulness of spirit wh i ch is one of her most strikin g characteristics . Throughout her life, ma ternal love has been a powerful principle dictating Mrs. Mcad 1 s r ejection of a life of ease that was he rs for the c h oosing in favo r of the difficult and challenging path of humanitarian service . I t was a mother's love that l ed Mrs . Mead to r ally a group of her fri.ends to help establish centers to provide m ilk for needy families d u ri.ng the years of the Great Depression. It was a mothcr 1 s love

that found Mrs. Mead making usc of her nurs es - a ide training to serve as interim grandmothe r for many infants as she joined o ther volunteers i n maternily nursing during Worl d War II. It was a mother's love that e n abl ed her to find solace for the hea rt - b r eaki ng grief of losing a son on Guadalcanal through the establishment of The Little Exchange Foundation. The Foundation sponsors a gift shop, staffed by volun teers , to afford an outle t for the creative enterpri se of home -bound c r aftsmen and needlewo r kers and to p r ovide a source of financial support for the health car e of children. It was a mother 1 s love tha t aroused Mrs. Mead ' s i n t erest in The Chil dren ' s Hospital Society and motivated her leadership as this group set out in 1959 to raise funds for the constructio n of a gene ral ChildrQn 1 s Hospital as the first phase of a comprehensive Children ' s M edical Center. It was thi s same mother 1 s love that provided the inspira tion for many of Mrs . M ead ' s associates as they overcame many ser i ous obstacles to the r eali zat ion of their dream. Th r o u gh the merge r of B a r ney Convalescent Hospital and the Children's Hospita l Society in 1963 -- through laborious cul tivation of community suppor t -- and through the opening of the doors of a new, four - story Chi ldren ' s Hospital additi on to the existing conval escent fac ili ty in ear ly 1967--it was Mrs. M ead 's sanguine outlook and conviction that buoyed the spirits of h e r co - workers and provided the he a rt and the courage to see the project t hrough to a successful concl usion. It i.s through this mother 1 s l ove, and the dete rmination and untiring efforts to which it gave birth, that competent, compre h ens ive and consi de r ate pediatric care i s provided annually for thousands of ch il dren of all ages a nd from every economic walk of life . During the year 1968, 35 ,000 c h i l dren received t reat ment i n the Center's twenty - three out - patient c li nics ; more than 3, 900 were adm itted and received in excess of 26,000 days of care ; and over 10,000 received eme r gency room treatment--all i n an environme nt t hat recognize s the sick and the suffe ring patient as a frightened little chil d. I t is a Medical Center with a he a rt--a heart t h at reflects a mother ' s love . The r ecord of the past, together with present plans for the further development of the Center, inclu d i ng the es t ablishment of a research fac ility to study the ori g ins of childhood d is ea s e , stand as a tr ibute to this outstanding mother. Advancing years have but enriched her l ife and the threat of age has been rendered powerless through dedicated service to c hil dren. Many other community organizations have provided additional outlets for Mr s. M cad 1 s humanitarian efforts . Her breadth of service is mo st deserving of our r ecognition. But, through a ll of her many avenues of service, the warmth of a mother ' s l ove stands out in bold relief.

TO MRS. ELSIE TALBOTT MEAD We are honored today by the presence of an out standing mother--a mother whos e love o v erflowed the confines of home and fami ly i n a ti de of t ender compassion for a ll suffe r ing childr en and for their a n guishe d parents . This outs t anding mother is Mrs . Els i e Talbott Mead , the widow of George H. M ead, one of our country ' s leading industrialists and a dedicated public servant.

It seems parti cularly app r opriate that an institution w ith the tradition and

ideal s of The Uni versity of Dayton should bestow speci a l r ecogn ition on one who so admirably reflects the power and the beauty of a mother ' s love. It is my honor therefore , Very Reverend President, to r ecommend that you bestow upon Mrs. Elsie Talbott Mead the degree, Doctor o£ Humanities, honoris causa .

PROFESSOR OF THE YEAR AWARD First Place

FREDERICK J. BUECHE As a teacher he is acknowledged by his peers and students alike as truly outstanding . His ability to engage a class acti.vely in the teaching process has to be seen to be believed, As a strong follow - up to the classroom he spends untold hours in working with individual students . He has developed a research facility in which students, both graduate and undergraduate , can easily participate . The fact that he has done meaningful research in limited space and with a limited budget, has served as a real model and has set the overall research tone for his enti.re department. The past year ' s scholarly activity shows three research papers, a translation into Spanish of his highly regarded text, "Principles of Physics, and the publication of an 899 page text, 11 lntroducti on to Physics for Scien tists and Engineer , " by McGraw - Hill.

IN MEMORIAM

~

Very Rev. James M. Darby, S.M. Family and friends paid homage to the Very Rev. James M. Darby, S.M., former Provincial of the Society of Mary's Cincinnati Province, at three Masses of the Resurrection in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and Dayton during the week of April 21. Father Darby, who was director of the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate, Washington, died suddenly Sunday, April 20, in the Leonard Neale House, Jesuit residence. He had been hospitalized in March with a heart condition but had been back at CARA for two weeks prior to his death.

46

Members of the Eastern Hierarchy of the Catholic Church and directors of religious orders attended the masses in Washington and Philadelphia. Services in Dayton were held Saturday, April 26, on the East Campus (Mt. St. John's) of the University of Dayton. More than 30 priests including many friends of Fath er Darby's from around the country, concelebrated the Dayton mass in the Queen of Apostles Chapel at the Marianist College. Rev. Charles Hofstetter, a classmate, gave the homily while Bishop Edward McCarthy, Auxiliary Bishop of Cincinnati, offered the final absolution at the Queen of Heaven Cemetery, also on the East Campus. Father Darby, who had been ordained a priest in 1945, had completed 10 years as Provincial in August and was appointed to the CARA post shortly thereafter. He had been a co路founder of the organization 3'/2 years ago with Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston. His appointment came from John Cardinal Krol of Philadelphia. The Center is designed for data gathering and problem solving for the Roman Catholic Church in America. Father Darby had pioneered three projects in his brief six months. They were a study on the Church's campus ministry in the United States, a m anpower analysis to study the deployment of American priests, and a research effort to determine the utilization of the layman in the Church. Father came to the University of Dayton in 1935. He took his firs t Marianist vows in 1936 and his final vows in 1940. He received degrees from UD, Ohio State a nd Harvard, the latter a doctorate in 1957. He served one year as Vice President of the University of Dayton before being named Provincial. He leaves one brother, Bro. John Darby, Superintendent of Schools, Nassau, Bahamas, and two sisters, Mrs. Francis Tozar of Philadelphia and Mrs. Thomas Lynch of Chicago.

FRIENDS ALWAYS Hugh Connolly, '64, died in a Kansas wheat field in April, victim of a military airplane accident. Thirty-two of his friends sat in the little chapel at Bergamo May '4- as Father Charles J. Brady offered a Memorial Mass. Not a Mass of sorrow, although certainly Hugh's death brought that grief, but a Mass of Resurrection. Who could think of fun-loving, daring Hugh in complete sorrow. As his friend, Jack Meagher, said in the homily: "I can't help but feel that Hugh died doing what he wanted to do. He wanted to go back to Vietnam.

Through that carefree exterior was a deep sense of duty and responsibility, and a love for his country." What was displayed here was not only a consideration of Hugh Connolly's untimely death but the comradeship of many men, joined by their wives, which developed w hile undergraduates at the University of Dayton and later as alumni, not only of UD, but Chi Sigma Alpha. We, at UD, can only hope that that comradeship, devotion and love for one another, had its roots at the University of Dayton.

Members of the University of Dayton administration, faculty and Board of Trustees have been involved over the past two years in developing a Statement of Purposes which would bring to the attention of the public the aims, goals and purposes of a Catholic University in today's modern world. The results of this long study are herewith printed for the benefit of our alumni. There are a limited number of books available in which

Rev. William Cole S.M., chief researcher in this long study, states in great detail his efforts over a 12-month period. They are available to alumni in the President's Office. This statement became available just before the ALUMNUS was released to the printer. This is the reason it is at the back of the book rather than on the front page.

The University of Dayton, by tradition, by legal charter, and by resolute intent, is a church-related institution of higher learning. As such, it seeks, in an environment of academic freedom, to foster principles and values consonant with Catholicism and with the living traditions of the Society of Mary. Operating in a pluralistic environment, it deliberately chooses the Christian world-view as its distinctive orientation in carrying out what it regards as four essential tasks: teaching, research, serving as a critic of society, and rendering public service. The University of Dayton has as its primary task to teach - that is, to transmit the heritage of the past, to direct attention to achievements of the present, and to alert students to the changes and challenges of the future. It regards teaching, however, as more than the mere imparting of knowledge; it attempts to develop in its students the ability to integrate knowledge gained from a variety of disciplines into a meaningful and viable synthesis. The University of Dayton holds that there is harmony and unity betw een rationally discovered and divinely revealed truths. Accordingly, it commits its entire academic community to the pursuit of such truths. It provides a milieu favorable to scholarly research in all academic disciplines, while giving priority to studies which deal with problems of a fundamentally human and Christian concern. It upholds the principle of responsible freedom of inquiry, offers appropriate assistance to its scholars, and endeavors to provide the proper media for the dissemination of their discoveries. The University of Dayton exercises its role as critic of society by creating an environment in which faculty and students are free to evaluate, in a scholarly manner, the strengths and weaknesses found in the institutions developed by man. While, as an organization, it remains politically neutral, objective and dispassionate, it encourages its members to judge for themselves how these institutions are performing their proper tasks; to expose deficiencies in their structure and operation; to propose and to actively promote improvements when these are deemed necessary. The University of Dayton recognizes its responsibility ta support, with means appropriate to its purposes, the legitimate goals and aspirations of the civic community and to cooperate with other agencies in striving to attain them. It assists in promoting the intellectual and cultural enrichment of the community ; it ma kes available not only the resources of knowledge that it possesses, but also the skills and techniques used in the accumulation and dissemination of knowledge; and, above all, it strives to inspire persons with a sense of community and to encourage men of vision who can and will participate effectively in the quest for a more perfect human society.

The Editor's Opinions Some of your friends among the University of Dayton alumni are now preparing to scan the qualifications of nominees for the three-year-old Distinguished Alumnus Award. This is the coveted award which has gone to Carroll Hochwalt, '20; Alphonse Mahrt, '12, and Edwin Becker, '14. The qualifications for this award, which is presented at the annual fall Homecoming dinner, are stated in Mary Shay's column in this issue. It is not my intent to restate them here. However, it is my intent to urge each and every alumnus to seriously consider the nomination of people for this award. It is an honor which your university takes extremely seriously. The UD community looks up to the award winners as people who have achieved the highest Christian goals in every phase of their life. The majority of our alumni are not just eligible to win this honor because one must be a graduate of at least 25 years. However, all 16,000-some alumni can participate in the selections by seriously considering the nominating of a person for this award. Just don't place a man or woman in nomination- give the person's background to Mary Shay. Some day you or your friends may be eligible for this award. If it is to have true meaning and prestige all alumni must take it seriously and participate in some way in the operation of the Distinguished Alumnus Award. One other suggestion now about the Athletic Hall of Fame. As one who was in on the ground floor of this program I have followed closely its progress since 1962. I'm proud of every man who has stepped into that Hall which is sponsored by the Greater Dayton Chapter of the Alumni Association. However, the Editor does have a pet peeve. Perhaps,

two pet peeves. One, many of the nominations are made in the nature of a popularity contest. This is not the intent of the Hall. A man must have excelled in a meaningful athletic way at UD and he must have graduated. We suggest when you make your nominations spell out some of the reasons why your choice should be in the Hall. In our humble opinion not enough research is accomplished by the selection committee and we are reaching the point in the selections where some serious comparisons must be made. The Editor feels, too, that you "oldtimers" should make some nominations . When I say "oldtimers" I'm talking about those young men who were at the university before 1920. We had some fine pioneering athletes in those days but only two, Harry Solimano, '07, and Al Mahrt, '12, are in the Hall. It is true that an oldtimers' category has been established but help is needed to convince some of "the young whippersnappers," those 45 or under, that the athletic pioneers belong in the Hall NOW. Some have questioned the schedules of those days, or the structure of the athletic teams. We say that the schedule and structures were the norms for those days. Therefore an outstanding man belongs in the Hall. How about helping the ALUMNUS Editor with names, facts and figures, if possible, on some oldtimers for the Athletic Hall of Fame. And remember, the opinions expressed here are those of the ALUMNUS Editor, Joe McLaughlin, and do not necessarily agree with those of the UD administration, or officers and board members of the National Alumni Association. -JOE McLAUGHLIN
