VISITINGthe chapters with Alumni Secretary MARY SHAY
A wonderful vacation trip to Hawaii behind me and Homecoming, "The Age of Aquarius," ahead of us! What a five-month period I've had, and will have, through October. I can't express in words my pleasure over the reception I received in our beautiful 50th state, Hawaii . I want to thank alumni all over the world for this vacation which came from our alumni association. I want to express my thanks publicly to those who planned my 25th anniversary party, to those who sent many cards, letters , telegrams and gifts at the time of the celebration, and to those who made the Hawaiian visit such a memorable occasion. The hospitality of the " Islanders" during those two weeks made this "Mainlander" so happy. It will be a long time, if ever, that I forget this experience. A tremendous Mahala and Aloha to each and every one of you.

This was the Inn of the Sixth Happiness. This was Hawaii in June, 1969. The group gathered there for the dual purpose of holding a meeting of Hawaiian alumni and meet Mary Shay, celebrating 25 years as your alumni secretary. Many were her old friends whom she hadn't seen in years. Perhaps, some of these "old" grads are "old" friends of yours. Can you find any of them? I understand from Mary that they all send: "Aloha" to classmates. - Joe Mclaughlin, Editor.

cause few men have lived with the great capacities this man had: The capacity to love people and animals. H e didn't care much about things. The capacity to see humor in life. Not manufactured humor that spews from professional comedians, but true humor that surrounds us if we would but look. The capacity to make friends and be a frie nd. If there were more Jack R yans more people would be friends.
The following verse was submitted to the office by an alumnus and a very close friend of Jack Ryan '49 who was called to his eternal reward April 11, 1969. It was thought some of Jack's friends would be interested in the following typical description! The only time he was on time was the occasion of his own funeral. You had to shout when you were around him because he was never out of earshot of a blaring radio, juke box or party of some kind. You could be having a serious conversation with him and he would leave in the middle of it because someone else wanted to talk less seriously. Driving with him was an experience few ever forgot. It was best 'to feign tiredness and close your eyes. Being with him was an experience few ever forgot be-
'Bye now. See you at Homecoming.
LETTERS TO CHUCK Your ALUMNUS Editor has an idea. Charles (Chuck) Noll, '53, is taking on the greatest challenge of his young life. Your fellow alumnus has taken over the head coaching job of the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League and, in 36 years, the club has never won a championship and, + on top of that, usually has losing seasons. Chuck accepted this situation with a positive attitude and now the time is drawing near for him to start the 1969 campaign. We'd like to suggest that ALL alumni sit down and pen Chuck a note wishing him good luck. We know many of us accept challenges but here is a chance to give one of our best known alumnus a "good luck" wish on the eve of his first season. Just send your note to Charles (Chuck) Noll, Pittsburgh Steeler Football Club, 139 Sixth Street, Pittsburgh, Pa. 15222. How about it! Let's inundate Chuck with mail.
College students from Tunisia are interviewed and photographed by news media during their two week stay on the University of Dayton campus in July. The students, who came from the University of Tunis, were part of a touring group sponsored by the Experiment in International Living program in Putney, Vermont and the State Department in Washington, D.C. Ten s路tudents and an American advisor made the trip to Dayton. Later they went to Massachusetts to live in private homes and then on to Niagara Falls, New York City and Washington to absorb more Americana. 3

tiona! or professional ones. 2. For this same reason I would recommend that the wives and families not be included for this type of gettogether. I feel Homecoming activities are of a social nature and could be used to bring families together. 3. As you know, Joe, .I have coordinated many technical meetings. I feel that the objectives of the University and the alumni would best be served if this were the approach. Two or three days of intensive lecture and discussion in a controlled environment (Bergamo) would be most advantageous to the alumni. Jn essence what he will be looking for is a "retread" not a party. We are all too busy to take time out .for that. (The party is, however, a valid secondary objective of after hours.) 4. Classes should not be separated - think of grouping four or five years together and all business graduates. Plan to operate with groups of 100 not seven or eight. Have some top notch speakers, some faculty, and where qualified, the alumni themselves. 5. I think the University will gain not through any formal assistance from the alumni but rather through the informal discussion and questions of the alumni and faculty. The faculty should be able to translate these concerns into a proper orientation of the curriculum. Very few al umni would be in a position to make concrete suggestions as to curriculum content, but they are in a position to voice their real life problems.
We Get Letters ... In the June edition of the ALUMNUS, Charles Grismer, '59, related his experiences during a reunion day of the Accounting Clas.s of 1959. The reunion was held last October at Homecoming time. We're sure you all read Grismer's story. The letter in this space concerns the same reunion and it has a different message which we feel alumni should read. It comes from Marty Miller, '59, who is Assistant to the Director of UD's Research Institute. It reads: MEMO FROM: Marty Miller RE: 1959 Accounting Class Homecoming Dear Joe: First I would like to thank you and your staff along with Charlie Grismer, Dean Hoben, and the Department Chairmen for making our two-day Homecoming across the campus very enjoyable. J will attempt to be objective in my recommendations although I may be too close to the University to do so. Here they are for what they are worth. I. Due to the fact that for the most part our relationship (as classmates) was on an educational basis and not one of a social nature, I would recommend that such reunions not be scheduled with Homecoming events but at some other time of the year. At Homecoming one intends to renew social acq uaintances rather than educa-

Jack DeVelbiss, left, observes his World of dance, drama, music, sculpturing, art and creative writing.
The World of Jack DeVelbiss, '54, is kids - elementary and secondary school kids with creative talent. Kids who find happiness and contentment in freely expressing themselves on the drawing board, the sculpturing table, the stage, or through creative writing, dance and music. More specifically, Jack DeVelbiss' World is the Living Arts Center, Linden Avenue, Dayton, Ohio. He bubbles over when he speaks of it. Conceived by George Zimmerman, supervisor of music in the Dayton Public System in 1967 and sponsored by the Dayton Board of Education through Federal funds, the Living Arts Center is more than just the World of Jack DeVelbiss. It has been the World of hundreds of adults and more than 2,000 youngsters from all Dayton schools, public and private alike. "It was originally conceived as a Performing Arts Center," says DeVelbiss, "But the concept was soon changed to an a rt center without the pressures of performance. This is a place to enhance the total artistic

growth and development of each student. It is an effort to enmesh their artistic leanings into their every day life." The Living Arts brochure explains it this way: "The Living Arts Program is an operational Project to Advance Creativity in Education (PACE] . . . The purposes of the Living Arts Program are to identify, nurture, and evaluate the creative potential of youngsters whose interests lie in the Fine Arts- creative writing, dance, drama, music and the visual arts . . . "The Living Arts Program is a supplementary service and is designed to enhance not to supplant the educational opportunities inherent in the schools of Dayton. Only yesterday A lone bird flew to me And yesterday's gone . . . John Hoops
Mr. Chi and the dance.
With this varied experience, how did he turn to school teaching and music. It all started seriously when, at 23 years of age, he entered the University of Dayton and came under the influence of Professor Maurice Reichard and Dr. Betty Thomas of the Music Department. '.'No two people outside my family have had more influence on my life than Maurie and Betty," he says reverently. "Maurie has to be considered my idol and father confessor. He has been a great asset to my growth. Betty used to live near me when I went to UD. I lived in West Milton and she in Ludlow Falls. We 'd ride to school together every day and those long talks to and from Dayton have never left me. "Despite all that I must admit," Jack continued, "that my wife has to take the credit for keeping me in school. I felt like quitting many times . After all, I was older than the average student. I was 27 when I graduated and in those previous years, Cy, (the former Phyllis Cissner] had to make many sacrifices. "I'd see my friends and their wives going out to dinner and I couldn 't afford this luxury. But she'd never let me think of it too long. I'm glad now that she had all the strength." But what of the Living Arts Center. This is DeVelbissland and an important part of this story.
I walked out of my safe house into the palms of innocent death - streets. . . . Don Cobb
"The ultimate aim of the Living Arts Program is to make students aware of the world around them and to use this cognizance as a source for expressing themselves through the arts." But, despite all the high-sounding words, a place of creation for multi-personalities, such as the Arts Center, must have a soul. Breathing life into that soul must be, first, the leader and, secondly, the apostles. DeVelbiss, from our observations, breaths that life into the atmosphere, it is caught and carried on by his apostles , who in turn breath this excitement and gentleness into the children. It is this gentleness which catches one's senses as he moves from room to room, work bench to work bench. It has to come from understanding and that understanding must be a dominant trait of the leader. Perhaps, a look at Jack 's first 27 years will bring these traits of understanding and gentleness into focus . He was born June 7, 1927 in Columbus Grove, Ohio. He moved from there to Lima, Ohio, then to Troy and Tipp City, Ohio , during his school years. He's always had to work. As a youth, he was a grocery clerk, pin boy, paper boy, stock boy, soda jerk and defense worker. As a U.S . Navy man, he was antiaircraft gunner, cook, movie projectionist, musician, disc jockey and radio announcer. As an adult and a civilian again, he was at various times, a professional musician, electrician apprentice, construction worker, truck driver, U.S. mail carrier, presser and route man in a dry cleaning business, supervisor for a drama and music educational program, a researcher for a frozen food corporation and a group and float leader for the Montgomery County Juvenile Detention. Being careful to walk on the safe side of the river he never reached the other side . . . John Hoops

"We try to create a non-classroom atmosphere," Jack related during a full afternoon of talking, touring, and picture-taking. "We have no bells, no restricted seating. There is a small ratio of students per instructor. We don't like to even refer to our teachers as instructors but you must have some term of reference. We find it is better to consider it as an individual-toindividual relationship - one learning from the other. Much creative freedom is permitted, and encouraged, at the Center. For this reason, our Center often helps open up a shy, or disturbed, student and they eventually become involved in their own school activities.
Bing Davis lends helping hand.
Armand Martino, '55, free expression
But never do you see an idle hand. There is always someone moulding with clay, creating with a brush, banging with a hammer, or chipping on wood. Wood, boxes, metal, clay, tree stumps, wire, cardboard, brush, machine parts all serve as tools for creative hands and imaginative minds. While the other areas of music, dance, creative writing and drama call for more rudimentary training, freedom of expression always appears in some form and encouraged by the instructor. It is a joy to watch the rapport between the adults, whose minds and bodies have lived with this creation over many years, and the youngsters, who are absorbing this creation
The play's the thing
when did it all start I wonder now but it doesn't really matter just as long as it never ends but how could it I've never been a person for finishing things and even though I may never have the answer I'll always have the reason . . . . Pat Wood
It isn't unusual for a student to disappear from our
lI
midst. When . we check on this sudden departure we find that the person has settled into an active program in their elementary or secondary school program. This is good." She laughed and shook the rafters with a deafening thunder People stared and she felt their hideous gazeswhat was so earth-shattering? .. Kathy Brinkman
I
It is obvious from a tour of the Living Arts Center that freedom of expression is the rule of order. And it is no more apparent than in the fine arts area. All sorts of creation abounds in this rather large room. Some of it is depicted on these pages.

and learning to apply it to their daily living. Why a story like this? First of all, Jack DeVelbiss is an alumnus. Secondly, through the personality of DeVelbiss, through the gentle voice of Bing Davis, the body movements of Mr. Chi, the musical know-how of Mr. Walls , the writing aplomb of Miss Benham, the drama direction of Mr. Payne, the overall direction of Mr. Ray, and the understanding and talents of other Center adults, many young people are off the streets,
learning to find themselves and turning into happy youngsters . What more could we ask for from adults in this turbulent world today when so many young people are upset and don't know where to turn. More than 2,000 have turned to the Living Arts Center. And a UD graduate is that idol and father confessor so many need. What better tribute to the University of Dayton and it's alumni association.
G. B. Shaw, an inspiration for creative writing.

STUDENT INVOLVEMENT
THE ~~wHY'' OF IT AT U.D. By GARY MOLINSKY, '68
We, in the Public Relations Department, are often questioned, sometimes apprehensively; sometimes belligerently; about the role of students and faculty on a modern day campus. There is a complete lack of understanding on all sides too frequently. It is hard to pinpoint all the reasons for the student movement because even students can't always agree on what they are going after. However, we feel that an open discussion of the history of the student movement on the University of Dayton campus should be part of our publication policy. For this reason , we asked Gary Molinsky , '68 Vice President for Public R elations of th e 1967-68. Student Government, if he would undertake this task. He had been in on th e changing times from the start and still maintains a close interest in those who have succeeded him. This is his activity as an alumnus who cares about his university. In order to stay close to the situation, Mr. Molinsky asked Paul Foreman, '70, if he would aid in the writing of the article. This he did.
The campus in the headlines today features accounts of violence, burning, and even death. The state of higher education across the nation seems headed toward a period of change - militant change. However, a recent article in Fortune Magazine states: Hidden behind the eruptions of a few dozen unruly univ ersities like Columbia and Be rkel ey, th ere exist in relative peace sixteen hundred other institutions of highe r education containing the overwh elming majority of the country's college students. They are places where p are nts can still send th eir offspring with some confidence 路that they will not end up m a joring in rebellion and minoring in pot. Their students come to college primarily to study and to prepare for their careers in the mainstrea m of American life.
The University of Dayton includes itself among the sixteen hundred universities that are dedicated to study and the preparation of students for their future contributions to the American society. Specific reasons why the students have not had a more violent reaction to the issues at the University of Dayton must be left for the sociologists to discover. Part of the answer lies, we believe, with the environmental factors connected with the student predominantly the middle class affluent-American set; and the geographical location of the University itself. Geographically speaking, the University is an island unto itself. To the North lies the Dayton East Side, an area of lower white income housing; to the South, the prosperous Dayton suburb of Oakwood; to the
West, the vast complex of the National Cash Register Corporation; and finally, the East, occupied by the Dayton State Mental institution. Their residences are within a very narrowly defined area and whatever problems they create, they will have to live with. The students, because of their background and location, have turned toward responsible criticism of the only institution which they have had to criticize -the University. With sincerity, the criticism has been aimed at improving this institution and its entire educational program. When this particular shift toward education began within the Student Body is difficult to pinpoint. But, perhaps, it began in March, 1966, when a Student Council member had proposed an amendment to the Constitution which met with defeat
and then emphatically said, "We must stop conceding to the present." Others, that day, had agreed. In fact, another member stated that the campus had changed over the past few years, but the Council had failed to keep pace with that change. He suggested that a Constitutional Convention be called to consider a new organization for the Student Government of the University. The idea was approved by students and the following semester a Constitutional Convention gathered. CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION October 1, 1967, the fifty-six Convention delegates assumed the responsibility of the task at hand. The Convention's keynote address, which set its spirit, was delivered by a former University Provost, who said,
Father Roesch, UD President, makes a point.

. . . Students are the reason for the existence of colleges and Universities . . . Certainly they are the reason for the existence of this one. Not research, not prestige, not financial gain, not a 'sharp' campus of new buildings, not to sell anything or to preserve anything. Purely and simply, the University is for you - the students.
More specifically, the Provost addressed himself to the student task: This brings us immediately to your job of rewriting the constitution of the Student Council. Whatever you come up with must be an effective vehicle for the establishment of a strong student perspective on our campus. If you fail to build it so, you fail in your whole task. Your vehicle will certainly fail if it fails to provide two indispensables: the establishment and strengthening of channels of communication through which the undergraduates can and will make themselves heard, and a power structure or organizational environment favorable to the exercise of good leadership.
To insure that the Student Government would assume as much respon~ibility as possible and to guarantee autonomy in the implementation of its programs and projects, the new Constitution stipulated that a Student Government tax would be assessed in the sum of $2 per semester per full-time undergraduate student. Estimated yearly revenue generated by this tax was placed at $28,000. When the Constitution came before the Student Body for ratification, 80.9% of the 1,214 students who voted cast their ballots in the affirmative. Later, both the University's Student Welfare Council and

Father Barrett-Rapport with students.
His closing remarks warned: ... You are not going to succeed in what you have set out to do unless you initiate a movement toward drastic change and rebuilding of the University of Dayton . . . Without this element all you will do is build a better mousetrap for real leadership and that would be really unfortunate.
After four months the Convention presented to the Student Body a constitution that embodied totally dynamic concepts of student responsibility, power and participation on the campus of the University of Dayton. The new constitution created a decentralized, tri-partite form of government in which an Executive Branch was charged with initiating and administering programs and projects in the areas of Academics, Public Relations, Student Activities, and Finance; the Legislative Branch, which was designated as a Student Congress, possessed the power to act as "the ultimate student legislative authority in University affairs" and "to enact legislation deemed necessary to further the welfare of the individual student and the University as a collective whole;" and the Judicial Branch which exercised jurisdiction both in those cases referred to it by the Dean of Students, and arising from violation of student regulations or Student Congress legislation.
Administrative Council gave their approvals. A new Student Government at the University of Dayton had become a reality. Since the establishment of the Student Government, two significant trends have been noticeable. First, an increased joint participation by the students, faculty, and administration in all phases of University affairs; and second, a definite educationally-oriented phase of student activism. STUDENT ACTIVISM
To characterize student activism at the University of Dayton as within the mainstream of nation-wide campus turmoil would be fallacious. To call it a non-violent determination would be closer to the truth. The essential thrust of student activism on this campus has been focused on improvin~ the educational atmosphere at the University. A brief review of the main campus issues - those that have generated University-wide interest and participation - could provide some substance for this conclusion. 12
Of the seven major demand issues on campus within the past three years, two were the Philosophy controversy and the Grant case which primarily involved faculty and administration. The remaining five: voluntary ROTC; suspension of 12 students; Black Action Through Unity demands; the hunger strike and the Student Bill of Rights in valved students and administration. The hunger strike which had occurred in St. Mary's Hall last February exemplified the reasons why the other demand issues had come to the surface. The strike had been based "solidly on the theory of nonviolence," participants stated. It had been called to emphasize "the violation of our most basic right to intelligently determine our educational environment." The strike terminated when both the strikers and the administration agreed to discuss the point raised by the strike at an informal "sensitivity session" at Bergamo. Prominent members of the administration, faculty and the student body met in intense informal discussion about the very nature of education within this University. The outcome of the session will eventually reach every part of the University. STUDENT PARTICIPATION
For years, student participation in determining the direction of University affairs had been relegated to an informal consultative basis. The only exception being the Vertical Communications Committee, composed of students, faculty, staff and administrators, which had as one of its purposes "to serve as an idea group which would discuss present campus problems as well as the future development of the University Community." However, a break with this traditional student role occurred in 路 February, 1967, when the Student Council spoke out in the "Philosophy Controversy" through its Resolution "Improving our Faculty." This Resolution resolved in part ... the establishment of the Archbishop's 'fact-finding board' is in direct opposition to the principles of freedom of action in academic affairs, in an overextension of antiquated Canons 1372, 1381, and 335-337 of the Canon Law of the Church, and constitutes an obstruction to the free pursuit of truth and the proper operation of
Father Lees can draw a laugh or a frown.
an institution of higher learning. After chastising the local Dayton clergy for their attempted intrusion into the University's heresy issue, the Resolution condemned outright the Archbishop's course of action stating . . . the Student Council hereby requests that all parties involved in the current philosophy dispute assess the establishment and operation of the Archbishop's investigatory committee as an unwarranted seizure of authority and an undesirable precedent for future intrusion. Further, we ask that these parties discourage any adherence to compliance with the reports or rulings of this superfluous body with recommendation that, if necessary, higher authority be sought . . . The Resolution further suggested that: ... the administration undertake a serious and open study of its policy in screening and hiring practices for the incoming faculty, so that we can hope to attract more young and challenging instructors, keeping in mind that young men and women of high calibre have stirred a new interest in academic achievement. More specifically, the Student Council respectfully requests that every possible step be taken to upgrade and define University standards and practices for the hiring and the promotion of our faculty. Particularly, we request that special attention be given to providing practical inducements for the return of all of our young and-exciting professors who leave for further graduate study, with regard for the additional academic prowess which they can contribute to the University ...
Faculty and administration reaction to the student Resolution had been varied. To many, it was amusing, others regarded it as a meaningful breakthrough by students into the real problems that face the University. The Student Government had made its debut in substantial University affairs and apparently prophesied at the same time forthcoming public student opinion on the issues that would face the University as a whole. In March, 1967, the Student Council called for a complete overhaul of the class cut system which finally resulted in un-limited class cuts for all students other than freshmen. Student initiative in offering recommendations to concerned parties within the University suddenly knew few limitations . When the local chapter of the American Federation of Teachers announced its initial formation on campus, the Student Government conducted a special investigation of the new faculty union and its nine professed objectives which had included the establishment of a minimum salary for faculty members; the promotion of a "just tenure policy;" and the election of department chairmen by faculty members on the department level. Completing its investigation, the Student Government, in resolution stated, " . . . Student Congress applauds and encourages the efforts of the University of Dayton American Federation of Teachers in reaching these nine goals .. ." and had further besought the administration to formally recognize the union and its principle objectives. The Stu-
13
dent Government asked for and received a revision of the advisory system following the case of the 12 suspended students; and a voice in selecting the University Chaplain when the office became vacant. Among the most vigorous of recent proposals from the Student Government has included the quite successful Experimental College financed fully and promoted by the Student Government. On a volunteer basis students, faculty and administration may draw up a course syllabus to offer new data and innovations for academic discussion in an effort to discover legitimate and worthy subjects of study for a formalized education. A variety of topics were first offered to the public-at-large in the Spring semester of 1969. Included were courses on " man's leisure time;" the role of the sexes ;" "motivations and frustrations in attempting wisdom," sponsored by undergraduate students; "meta-extentialism" taught by graduate students in philosophy, and "problems of an administrator and administrative problems" team sponsored by various members of the University administration. Its contribution to educational environment at the University of Dayton cannot be properly assessed at the time of this writing since the results are incomplete. The trend toward joint faculty-

student decision-making on critical affairs has taken another important step following a recent proposal by the Student Government to incorporate an active student voice in the form of an advisory committee on the hiring of faculty members within the department. The student resolution had arisen as a result of a large student protest which followed the separation of a history professor by the University. 'The proposal had envisaged the creation of advisory bodies with each department partly composed of students on a 1 to 3 ratio. At this writing, th e department of Political Science has actively sought limited student participation in selecting a n ew department chairman. Further expansion of this unique concept shall b e governed by department chairmen, all of which shall face this important decision to allow students to sit with faculty members in council. The Chairman of Fine Arts commented upon the idea: "We have invited students to come to our faculty meetings, the students have their own meetings to which the faculty are invited. It's a beautiful thing. However, we could set up a committee without much trouble. I farsee the day when students would want to hang on to a teacher, and they would then have a voice . . . We have it easier than some of the departments, since we are small and by very nature must deal on a very personal, individual level with our students." In response to the same student Government Resolution, a member of the History department felt that
" Students should be involved to the same degree that they are effective and to the degree that they have competence. I trust students on whether a man is a good teacher. I don't trust them on whether a teacher works well within his department." And further, the English Department Chairman said to the Student Government proposal "There is no problem whatsoever in h aving an advisory committee the intent of the resolution is good. W e are giving thought to a variety of ways of getting student feedback above and beyond highly formalized ways ... Even faculty involvement has been very recent. Students will probably need a period af adjustment just as it took the faculty
about a year to adjust. The committee system is cumbersome at best and that is why we are looking for additional means of letting students express their voice ... Also, communication is needed between students and faculty more than between students and chairmen." Said the Theology Chairman, "Students have the right to express their opinions ... but .. . I would be leery of having students on the executive committees. Maybe next year I will have changed my mind." Finally, the Vice President said openly, "I agree with the spirit of the whole thing. The resolution is good ... I am favorably disposed to the resolution because I believe that intelligent participation in the government of the academic affairs in the University should be open to the student. The University can benefit by using the full potential we have." It would be pure vanity on the students' part to say that their establishment of a new Student Government h as been THE CAUSE of change on the campus of the University of Dayton over the past three years . Undoubtedly, it has played a very active role in promoting it, but overall, the role would have to be classified as a catalytic one. For at the same time that the students began exerting pressure for change, certain members of the Faculty and Administration were either doing the same in their respective areas or were sympathetic to the logic of the students' ideas.

Defensive End Jim Rudzinski
Tackle Jim Stangle
It is an old axiom in football that few coaches walk into a season with the ingredients of a good football team. These component parts are generally considered to be size, speed, experience, cohesiveness, toughness, football intelligence and spirit. Coach John McVay cannot boast of all these elements at one time since he came to the University of Dayton in 1965. It is true that Pete Ankney left him with some good individual players and that, in the intervening four years, McVay and his staff have built from that base. John's last three years of 8-2, 6-3-1 and 5-5 are proof of this building process. But it is a continuing process and this is particularly true as the Flyers prepare for the 1969 campaign. John probably had one of the finest offensive teams in UD history last year but he was shorn of key defensive personnel particularly in the secondary and this cost him more than one of those five losses. It wasn't until the final four games - coming off a 42-12 walloping by undefeated Ohio University that John could see that cohesiveness developing. His charges lost 27-25 to Xavier in the last 30 seconds as a result of penalties, dropped a tight 14-0 decision to a fine Miami eleven and then knocked off Toledo, 10-3, and Temple, 35-17. But this is another 路 year and that fine backfield of quarterback Jerry Biebuyck, fullback Mike Wilson and record-breaking halfbacks Bernie Kress and Bob Madden is gone. Men with little or no experience must replace this quartet which accounted for 2362 of the team's 3179 net yards, 24 of 30 touchdowns and at
least three fourths of the 222 points scored. John, who screens his true feelings neatly from the inquisitive, will hopefully tell you that the new running backs of Terry Miller, Gary Kosins, Tony Mora , Kevin Ryan, and Pete Powers may have more speed, generally speaking, than last year's crop. He'll quickly tell you only Miller had appreciable game experience and point to the good spring experienced by Vitale and Kosins. He'll go further on Kosins and quietly say: "He has the moves of Madden and the aggressiveness of Kress." But there he leaves it. When he speaks of the offensive line he is on more solid ground. Tackles Dan Andrick and Jim Stangle, guards Bill Thompson and Mark Ellison and tight end Bill Tant are proven workmen. John talks of the investment in time spent with these young men, their blocking skills and their recognition of changing defenses . You get the feeling that he's thinking that this front wall can hold a block and finese the defense while waiting for these speedy, but inexperienced, backs to develop cohesiveness. You can feel offensive line coach Joe Eaglowski shudder when John gets too aesthetic about this group who average 234 pounds. It comes across, too, that John has faith in new center, 235-pound junior Lee Dillon, and converted end-toguard, Dennis Sidebottom, who is a "mere" 210. Converted back and speedster, Willie Handley, and clever Bob Christopfel are the split end candidates in this offensive line. But what about the all-important quarterback spot 15
Halfback Terry Miller
However, if John's football team can entertain the fans as it has done in the past three years, UD football will remain where John has brought it- entertaining and exciting.
where Biebuyck held forth so successfully for three years with 19 victories, 10 losses and a tie? It's rather frightening when John quietly talks of any one of three quarterbacks, John Haynes, Dennis Schaffer or Ron Krechting, starting. Haynes was a sometimes successful, helter-skelter freshman quarterback two years ago. Schaffer has never really been able to show his wares and Krechting displayed some brilliance as a frosh last fall. The latter is listed in the pre-season brochure as the starter but one can't help but feel that, perhaps, this was due to spring injuries to the other two. However, let it be said that Krechting is not lacking in confidence. Now about that defense. We hesitate to write of it because, while John did comment extensively, one had the feeling that he was "iffy" all the way through. Those young men who had so much early-season trouble in the secondary, AI Brown, Tom Goodwin, Mike Nelson, and Don Simpson, and a sophomore with an instinct for the ball, Sonny Allen, are the keys to a successful pass defense this fall. Add linebackers Jim Tierney, Joe Tyler and Rich Wiegand, who have experience, and one should feel that this phase of the game may be in safe hands. However, only time and the first three games at Kent State, and then home against Miami and Bowling Green, will tell. Half of the defensive forward wall are lettermen. Middle guard Bob Palcic, tackle Fred Borgert, and end Jim Rudzinski are the letter winners. Ends Dan Quinn and Dave Schroeder, another letterman, will battle for the other end spot and Gary Hambell and Fest Cotton fight for the other tackle position. That group averages 227 pounds which is a respectable average but are they up to the usual offensive pyrotechnics of a Kent State, Miami and Bowling Green so early in the season. It is the toughest start for a Flyer eleven in many a year. And John can't get it out of his head that he has lost the skill people - those people "who could handle the ball so well - the center, quarterback and halfbacks ." "We've made some adjustments in our offense to compensate," he says, "but then we did some of these wide open things last year so maybe we won't be so different?"

receptive to questions addressed to the magazine . In cooperation with Miss Mary Shay, Alumni Secretary, we will be further researching the role of mutual coordination between Alumni and the Office of Admissions . Very soon now, our representatives will again be on the road looking forward to meeting and talking with many of you. Please do not hesitate to notify us regarding any services which we may render when in your area. There is much to discuss, and much yet to be done. We hope many of you will be able to visit us here on campus and avail yourself of a tour and a chance to chat with our students and faculty over a cup of coffee. We always look forward to meeting old frie nds and making new acquaintances.
ADMISSIONS CORNER (Like many universities, th e University of Dayton Admissions Office has been enlisting the aid of alumni in their student recruitm ent program. It is a way to bring alumni close to one phase of old alma mater. For this reason, we will have occasional letters from the Admissions Office to you in the ALUMNUS magazine.)
Dear Alumni: We are approaching that time of year when, in the midst of active and busy preparation for the fall season, we must look back and evaluate; look forward and plan. For six years now, w e have been actively recruiting: sending qualified representatives to high schools throughout the Eastern United States. (For a report on the "recruitment program" see the summer issue of FOCUS magazine .) Their job has been a two -fold re sponsibility : to communicate to the guidance counselors, students and parents at the high schools just what is "happening" at the University of Dayton - new programs, new projects, new potentialities, not to mention the traditions which have made the University what it is today; and also to find out what has been happening at the high schools since our last visit-how well we have served them in the past and how we may better serve them in the future. Our recruiters last year did a fine job, as evidenced by the feedback which continuously flows into this office. Indications are that this will be a continuously expanding part of our operations. Without final tabulations, it now appears that the quality of our incoming freshman class will be the best ever. The students we're now interviewing for the incoming class of 1970-71 are definitely superior. More and more students and parents are coming in for interviews convinced from discussions with people "back home" of the high-quality of education available to them at UD. In order to continue to improve upon the success of the past, we must continuously evaluate and improve our methods of operation. Recruitment, essentially is public relations: communications intersprinkled with service and hard work. Because of the rapidity with which our University is progressing, it becomes both a service and a necessity to communicate to those outside the campus, both within and outside of the Dayton Community, just what this progress entails. Fifty percent of our students are now coming from out of state. We are continually implementing new areas of communication and cooperation and working more closely with groups outside our office: faculty, students, parents, and alumni - es pecially alumni. This year, for the first time on a large scale, we are actively soliciting the aid of alumni in our pub lic relations effort. Letters will be going out to Alumni groups all over the country requesting their participation, ideas, suggestions and cooperation regarding our expanding communications program. In cooperation with Mr. Joe McLaughlin, Director of General Publicity, we will be reporting more of our activities through the ALUMNUS magazine, making ourselves

BISHOP PAULL LEIBOLD Bishop Paul L. Leibold, '36, Bishop of Evansville, Indiana , for three years, will become the Archbishop of the Cincinnati Archdiocese this month, succeeding Archbishop Karl Alter, who retired after 19 years of spiritual service to the Catholics of southwestern Ohio. The joint announcement was made late in July at the Archbishop's residence . Upon revealing his retirement, Archbishop Alter said he was happy "a younger man with dynamic energy and creative initiative should assume the responsibilities of my office ." Bishop Leibold, who is a self-described "middle-ofthe-roader" in the changing climate of the Roman Catholic Chuch, told newsmen at the time, "I want to go into this as openly, as honestly as possible. I'm more than willing to listen -- with openne~s - to anything that anybody should want to say." In a Dayton Journal Herald story, staff writer William W . Barringer wrote : "Bishop Leibold in known as a man of simple tastes in Evansville. He lives in a modest home near a neighborhood church on the city's east side and performs regular pastoral duties there, insisting he be given no special consideration as a bishop. "Friends there say he has told them, 'I have only two hobbies . . . my work and garden,' and Evansville residents often see Bishop Leibold - in civies
-
pulling weeds on his front lawn. " ... 'I hope to be an ecumenical bishop in the spirit of the Second Vatican Council,' and his years were ones of marked change in the diocese. "Under this direction, a priests' senate was established, laymen's councils were formed in 70 parishes of the diocese and a special synod of clerics and laity was elected by the church members to vote on policy documents to guide the diocese for the next 10 years. "When one of the documents prepared by the bishop's office was rejected by the synod as 'too hawkish' on the Vietnam War and 'not enough involved' in civil rights, Bishop Leibold had the document rewritten. " 'It's much harder to be a bishop in the democratic process,' he said later, 'but it's my way of doing things, it does take more time.'" When, upon being named Bishop of Evansville, three years ago, the Editor of the UD ALUMNUS magazine asked Bishop Leibold to write some memoirs of his early Dayton days, including UD, and of years as a priest, His Grace typed the answering letter and signed it hims elf. He explained that his secretary was busy. We, at his alma mater, welcome him back to southwestern Ohio and offer him our prayers for a long and spiritually productive tenure .

A letter in the Dayton Daily News said it best of the man: "I have just learned of the death of Rabbi Selwyn Ruslander" Gertrude Marti of Edwardsville, Illinois, wrote. "I find myself saying, 'I am sorry. I am so sorry,' and I must let the people of Dayton know. "Why? One doesn't write letters of sympathy to the people of a city. The answer is in Rabbi Ruslander himself, for only a man so personally interested in people, so compassionately understanding of them and so actively involved with them could leave such a void. Only a man of great faith and knowledge could become the conscience of a large community." After such a tribute one can only list the many services Rabbi Ruslander rendered to his community and fellow men. From broad service in the armed services to devotion to the Dayton Human Relations Council, Rabbi Ruslander's magnetic spiritual appeal spread across the world. His service to the University of Dayton, a Catholic University, was deep and meaningful. He lectured at the University and he developed the Judaic Studies Program here. This was a true step in ecumenism. It was typical of him to greet all mankind as one. He was positive. He was cheerful. When he received his honorary doctor of humanities degree from the University in August, 1968, he was ill. Yet, that smile; that cheerfulness never left him from the time he stepped into the special luncheon in his honor until four hours later when he received his degree. He left us at the University of Dayton with that smile, that cheerfulness. We will carry it with us always .
