The third annual magazine drive at Fairfield University, which
recently came to a close, has been classified as a success. More
than two thousand dollars worth of magazines were sold during
this campaign. Of this amount the total profit realized was over
eight-hundred dollars. The following data manifests the total sales
and profits received by the individual classes.

At the end of the lecture Mr.
Fahy and Mr. Walsh will answer
any and all questions from the
audience. The co-speakers have
lectured on communism for the
past five years in leading col­leges
and universities in the East
and Middle-West as well as to
civic, veterans' and fraternal
groups, exposing the fallacies of
those who follow the Red doc­trine.
Francis X. Fahy and Maurice A. Walsh, Jr., will
present an anti-communist forum in the second Bellar­mine
Lecture today during the sixth period. The pur­pose
of the forum is to point out the dangers of com­munism
and its Godless way of life, and to awaken the
audience to its insidious doctrines.

At the first comnlete student
assembly of the school year, the
Rev. Joseph R. Fitzgerald, S.J.
awarded Honor Society and Stu­dent
Council Keys to qualifying
members of the Student Body.
The assembly, held Wednesday
morning, December 12, in Berch­mans
Hall, was opened by the
Rev. Lawrence C. Langguth,
S.J., who addressed the student
body. In addition to Father Fitz­gerald
and Father Langguth,
two members of the senior class,
John J. Relihan and Harold F.
Mullen, spoke to the Student
Body.
Common Practice
Contacted earlier in the week,
Relihan, who is Senior Delegate
to the NFCCS, explained tha this
purpose in speaking was to ac­quaint
the students of Fairfield
with the aims, advantages and
divisions of the NFCCS. This ex­planation,
he added, is given, in
one manner or another, to all
the freshmen in the Catholic
College::. whicr. are member
schools, but because of the rela­tive
newness of the NFCCS to
Fairfield, it was felt that the
entire student body would profit
by a formal introduction to the
National Federation of Catholic
College Students.

Debating Society
Inaugurates New
Forensic Season
By JOHN H. WELCH
The Rev. Lawrence C. Langguth, S.J., Dean of the
College of Arts and Sciences, has released the names of
eight members of the Senior Class who have qual'ified
for, and been accepted into, the F1aiI'field Universit
Honor Society. The Honor Society Keys, emblematic
of high scholastic standing and outstanding extra-cur·
ricular participation, were presented to the new mem­bers,
Wednesday morning, by the Rev. Joseph D. Fitz­Gerald,
S.J., Rector of the University.
Awards were given to the fol- .------------
lowing seniors: Dominic A. Au­tuori,
Charles E. Black, Robert
T. Conroy, James D. Eplett, John
P. Fray, Jr., Harold F. Mullen,
Jr., John J. Walsh and Francis
E. Woods.
Qualifications
To qualify for the Honor So­ciety,
these men have maintain­ed
at least an eighty-five per
cent average during the past
three years, as well as acquiring
an accumulation of twelve points
for participation in extra-cur­ricular
activities. The Honor So­ciety
was established last year
in order to give an added in­ducement
to scholastic achieve­ment
and to encourage partici­pation
in extra-curricular activ­ities.
The Society is also a means
whereby public recognition is
tendered to the men who have
been outstanding in these L\</ ••,
fields of endeavor.

The Junior-Senior Bellarmine
Debating Society journeyed to
Albertus Magnus College in New
Haven last Thursday afternoon,
December 6, where the second
inter-college debate of the sen­ior
members of the. Bellarmine
Societies was held, The topic was
the new national topic, namely,
"Resolved: That The Federal
Government Should Adopt A
Permanent Program of Wage
and Price Controls." Glen Haw­man
and Eugene Magner repre­sented
Fairfield University and
for the negative. Miss Phyllis
Aldous and Miss Helen Wellman
represented Albertus Magnus
and upheld the affirmative.
The debate was very evenly
matched with the Albertus rep­resentatives
winning the debate
by the narrow margin of two
points, 84-82. There was consid­erable
interest in the debate on
the 9art of the Albertus students
as many attended the affaiir.
On Wednesday afternoon, De­cember
12, Glen Hawman and
Eugene Magner once again took
the negative on the national
topic as they opposed rona Col­lege,

THE JESUIT COLLEGES
Commencing in this issue, THE STAG presents a
new series of feature articles on the Jesuit Colleges in
the United States. !tis our hope that these articles,
written by Charles E. Black, will afford the faculty and
students of Fairfield University with an opportunity to
become better acquainted with the facilities of the vari­'
Ous Jesuit colleges in the United States..
We wish at this time to express our thanks to all
those officials at the many colleges who have graciously
come forward with the material necessary for an un­dertaking
such as this.
Tomorrow, Friday, Decem­ber
14, the local representa­tive
of Dieges and Clust will
be here to make delivery on
the Class Rings which were
ordered during the second
week in October. He will be
stationed near the cafeteria

As the old year is preparing
to leave us I find it very easy
to understand how the "Old
Man" acquired in 365 days, a
weary expression, a bent back
,and an amazing growth of whis­kers.
There isn't too much we
can do for the "Old Year" since
he won't be coming this way
again. However, I feel that we
should g'ive a little thought to
what made "him" so old and
weary by looking over some of
the issues facing 1952.
What is going to happen to
the nomination of Gen. Mark
Clark as diplomatic represnta­tive
to the Vatican State? Mr.
Truman created quite a contro­versy
over this situation. The
main issue will be settled by
Congress when it convenes in
'52. . .. It looks as though our
8th Army will be spending an­other
full winter in Korea . . .
or does it? An opinion in either
direction is well founded. Will
we see peace in Korea or will
World War III arise from this
infamous Police Action? ... Let
us not forget the N.A.T.O. which
is taking shape as a formidable
adversary to Communism in
Europe. Under the capable and
guiding hands of Gen. Eisen­hower
the U.S. should receive
from the European members of
this organization full coopera­tion
both in manpower and
money. . . . In "52" we shall
see if the U.S. has learned a les­son
from the burdensome part
America plays in the United
Nation's struggle against Com­munism
in Korea. I feel assured
that "Ike" won't forget, that is
if he remains in Europe as head
of the N.A.T.O. ! ! .. .' That
brings us to the presidential
election to be held in 1952. We
hear and read of many names:
Kefauver, Warren, Taft, Eisen­hower
and others. We'll just
have to wait and see!
America is approaching the
one millionth death due to auto­mobile
accidents. It seems inev­itable

According to information

that this ruling was part of
the new tax law, and may not
be generally known by the

New Rochelle had the negative.
The moderator and faculty ad­visor
of the Junior-Senior De­bating
Society is Father Clan­cey,
S.J. Although the club has
been restricted in its number of
debates during the past semes­ter,
the society intends to in­crease
its program by holding
debates with Georgetown Uni­versity;

Once again the Christmas season is upon us. The
season of bright lights, hustling crowds and gay spirits;
the season of games and toys and Santa C~aus; the
season of happiness and gaiety and peace.
The Christmas season - a navy recruiting poster
bears the caption "Peace on earth". On bright Christ­mas
cards an inscription is scrolled, "P~ace on earth,
good will to men." Radio and television repeat it, news­papers
and magazines reprint it; and unfortunately,
many believe it.
Unfortunately, for here is ,one of the greatest mis­quotations
in the history of man. In Luke I, 14 we read:
"Glory be to God in the highest, and on earth peace to
men of good will."
Little glory is given to God, He is forgotten, this
phrase is dropped from the Christmas messages, for the
glory to God would only detract from the glory of the
commercial Santa Claus. And so men seek peace with­out
acknowledging the Giver of Peace, the King of
Peace; and without realizing the type of peace he
promised.
As the Jews rejected Christ because they sought
an earthly king, so men today misinterpret the word of
God, for they seek an earthly peace, a material peace.
Certainly the early Christians were men of good will.
How did they find peace in being hunted, sought out"
tortured and put to death? In all ages men of good willi
have been trampled on, downtrodden, beaten, have for­feited
their goods and their lives to the more ruthless.
Of what did their peace consist?
Yet men of good will were promised peace on earth.
From the Giver of Peace, Whose kingdom is spiritual,
should we not expect a spiritual peace? Some men have
attained it - it is an internal peace, a spiritual peace,
a peace of soul.
In the materialistic atmosphere of the world today,
men of good will are few, and peace, whether it be
spiritual or temporal, is rare. But if all men were of
good will, if all could attain peace of soul, would not an
earthly. peace, a peace between nations soon follow?
In seeking this world peace men have rejected the
means of finding it. We have the means, it is to be
found in that message given on the first Christmas ...
"Glory be to God in the Highest, and on earth peace to
men of good will."

A Pint Of Life
Steve ~aranyar donates his blood.
Camera, Club
On Tuesday, November 6, two
great things happened here at
Fairfield, one was elections, an
expression of our democracy and
the other was the donation of
blood for our brothers in Korea,
an expression of generosity and
sacrifice on the part of the
American p e 0 pIe. The quota
hoped for by the Fairfield Chap­ter
of the Red Cross was 200
pints of blood, what they re­ceived
was 237 pints of life. We
of Fairfield may feel justly proud
for 27 pints of· that blood were
ours.
Perhaps some dub i 0 u s lad
reading this may say, "Ugh,
vampires, bloodsuckers, why
should I and my beloved cor­puscles
be separated, besides ...
IT HURTS." Well gather round
little chillun a,nd daddy will tell
you all about the big bad wolf,
because daddy knows all about
him ... he gave.
All these ghoulish stories
about shrinking bodies and irri­tated
livers are just for ghouls,
it just does not happen (I hope).
But to proceed: It was a bright
and glorious day, that Tuesday
of November 6, and I, in perfect
communion with nature, skipped
gaily into St. Paul's parish house
with my pudgy little bloodfilled
arms wrapped lovingly around
my most precious possessions,
my books. Immediately a four
eyed green monster called a
nurse grabbed me, she was so
abrupt, my poor little digits were
shaking as she led me into a
small room where four other lit­tle
monsters were rushing about
jabbing thermometers between
quivering lips. After being se­curely
strapped to a chair, (I
wasn't frightened, just nervous)
I, too, was was put through that
gruelling torture of having my
temperature taken. In all humil­ity
let me say that I passed this
rigorous examination with a 94.6
Centigrade (please, no flattery).
Following this display of my
true worth as a courageous in­dividual,
I was then carried by
six bone crushing bruisers (I
wasn't frightened, just appre­hensive)
into a large room where
inanimate bodies were sprawled
on cold white morgue tables. One
table was unoccupied (curses),
and that was where I was so
rudely dumped. From out of the
mist of frightened tears an an­gelic
vision with brown eyes and
shimmering locks appeared; she
was an angel with a southern
drawl, "Don't be frightened,
honey lamb, it just cain't hurt
you all." The problem arose, was

"We grant that the two pow­ers,
the ecclesiastical and the
civil are distinct," declared the
Reverend Gerald Kinsella, S.J.,
Professor of History at Fairfield
when he discussed the topic:
"Church and state" over the
WICC network.
"If we say," he stated, "and
many in this beloved land of
ours are saying precisely this,
that the seDaration between the
two Dowers is such that the po­litical
government must com­pletely
ignore religion, even re­pudiate
religion and discrimin­ate
against its adherents, then
we are equivalently saying that I
Hitler was right and Stalin is
right and the forces attempting
to enslave mankind are right.
Those who hold that the State
has no obligations to religion are
implicitly affirming the proposi­tion
that the poitical power is
not only sovereign in its own
domain, but its sovereignty has
no limitations, it is absolute and
universal."
"This is a fatal error to fall
into-one that destroys the very
basis of our priceless liberty.
Man is not destined for the state,
but for God. His end is not any
temporal good, but the Eternal
Good itself. Because of this end
man is free. The state can in
no way interfere in man's pro­gress
to this higher and superior
destiny. Not only is the state
obligated to this policy of non­interference,
but because its
power ultimately is derived from
God and therefore subject to the
eternal will, the State must co­operate,
insofar as it can, with
the efforts of its subjects to at­tain
their ultimate destiny."
"Hence the power of the
State," said Father Kinsella, "al­though
distinct from the Eccles­iastical
and supreme in its own
domain, is clearly on a subordin­ate
level. In matters of religion
and moralitv the State must fol­low
not decide, must promote not
ignore."
"The State," concluded Father
Kinsella, "owes no obedience to
the Church in purely temporal,
political or economic affairs that
do not touch upon the salvation
of its subjects. Political elections,
economic arrangements, meas­urements
for defense, military
strategy, etc. as such are no
concern of bishops or priests ex­cept
in their capacity as private
citizens. As a matter of fact the
Church warns them to be strict­ly
impartial so as not to preju­dice
their positions as spiritual
guides. If, however, a measure
were to be proposed harmful to
the spiritual interests of their
flocks, it is their solemn duty to
warn the faithful."
"Relations Between The United
States and Spain"
This was the title of a talk
delivered by :the Rev. Francis
Deevy, S.J., Professor of Span­ish
and dean of language teach­ers
at Fairfield College Prepara­tory
School on a radio broadcast
on December 3rd. .
In reply to a statement that in
the recent controversy about
Spain, Catholics have been con­sidered
pro-Spanish and even
pro-Franco and as a result have
made themselves open to the ac­cusation
of being pro-fascist,
Father Deevy replied as follows:
"That is the general opinion.
However, it should be made
abundantly clear that no Catho­lic,
American or Spanish, is un-
Continued on Page 8
at Albertus Magnus to no cuts
at Regis. Fairfield's system of
making a cut worth two absenc­es
when the man is known to be
on campus was universally con­sidered
the most novel.
A point system concerning
participation in extracurricular
activities engendered quite a
discussion. This system is based
on the belief that limiting the
number of activities in which a
student may join is beneficial
both to the student and to the
clubs and organizations in a
school. By assigning a certain
number of points to each activ­ity,
based on the demands each
activity made on the student's
time, and awarding each student
a reasonable number of extra­curricular
points proportional to
his scholastic average, the stu­dent
must then carefully choose
the clubs he wishes to join. Thus,
activities would benefit by hav­ing
men in them who were both
interested in specific groups and
would eliminate men joining
clubs to which their studies pre­vented
active participation. Fair­field,
by ;the way, is one of the
few colleges in New 'England
that does not practise this sys­tem
in some form or other.
Dayhop-resident relations pro­vided
the third discussion and
appear to present more of a
problem to the boarding colleges
than to Fairfield. At other col­leges
there is a distinct separa­tion
between these two factions
which causes excessive friction
within clubs and in social activ­ities.
All seemed to miss the
solution found here that an ack­nowledgement
of the need for
day-hops to join the clubs and
go to the dances was essential
to their success, that without
their interest these functions
could not be successful. We
pointed out that an invitation for
day-hop participation l' a the l'
than toleration might solve the
matter.
Finally, the question of inte­gration
problems between stu­dents
and faculty and adminis­tration
was raised. It was admit­ted
that all had a common

Delegates Attend Workshop
At Alb,ertus Magnus Colleg,e
By HAROLD F. MULLEN
On Saturday, 12/1/51, the Student Government
Commission of the N.F.C.C.S. conducted a workshop for
Student Council Presidents at Albertus Magnus Col­lege
in New Haven. Representatives from all but three
of the New England Catholic colleges participated in

absent. Fairfield's delegation on the other
hand was conspicuous by its size, sendbg ten men.
Following the formalities of
registration, the assembly was
welcomed by Sister Francis de­Sales,
Dean of Albertus Magnus.
The main speaker for the morn­ing,
Miss Josephine Bree, Ad­visor
to the Albertus Magnus
Student Government, addressed
the workshop on "The Scope of
the Students' Responsibility in
ColI e g e Government. Miss
Bree's ready knowledge of stu­dent
problems, her ability to see
both sides of the student govern­ment
situation, and her discern­ing
comments on stud.ent charac­ter
in general made 1t apparent
why the Student Government
Commission centered at Alber­tus
Magnus. Particularly, Miss
Bree noted that student interests
vary greatly over the years and
for that reason they cannot be
given excessive power in making
regulations, as in an unrestncted
student government. However,
it was pointed out that college
students accept regulations more
readily if allowed to have a hand
in the making of them and fur­thermore
are quick ,to benefit by
their own mistakes. She stated
that student rule in a moderate
degree affords those involved in
it the opportunity to develope
initiative by seeking rules for
the benefit of the student, to
gain confidence in their own de­cisions
and to learn either to
compromise or disagree agree­ably.
These latter abilities, she
thought, were frequently ig­nored
by many students when
they became elected to some p?­sition
of authoriity over the1r
fellow classmates.
Following Benediction an en­joyable
lunch was served buffet
style in Nilan Hall dining room.
Needless to say, eating off china
in a quiet atmosphere and hav­ing
your coffee poured by: a stu­dent
waitress was an enjoyable
change from Fairfield's combin­ed
automat and ping-pong stad­ium.
The afternoon session consist­ed
of informal discussions on
the results of a poll taken by
N.F.C.C.S. concerning honor sys­tems
at colleges, cut and point
systems, dayhop-resident rela­tions
and integration problems
between the students and the
faculty and administration. In
the discussion of honor systems,
Fairfield remained silent feeling
that the system of: "Please occu­py
alternate rows" with which
we were acquainted might be
looked upon as out-moded and
reactionary. Therefore, we al­lowed
the womens' colleges to
proudly state their success with
honor svstems and the other
mens' colleges to ridicule it by
stating how it was outwitted by
their students. Thus, we accom­plished
two ends: keeping our
own secrets intact and learning
a few new methods. A gentle­man
from St. Anselm's summed
up the honor system by stating
:that "The faculty has the honor
and the students have the sys­tem!"
The various cut systems
ran the gamut of unlimited cuts

Chicago's Loyola U. Spared Flames Of Great Fire
"The young men Loyola University turns out today have been steeped in the
way of thinking that made the American Constitution possible, and made, too,

Damen vowed that if his church
and school wer€ spaTed he
would keep seven lights burn­ing
constantly before the statue
of "Our Mother of Perpetual
Help." As a result of the salva­tion
of his school he fulfllled
his vow, and to this day seven
lights may be seen burning con­stantly
in ,the Holy F'amily
church.
When in 1906 the Jesuits
sought room for expansion, a
25 acre site was purchased on
Chicago's north side, and with
this purchase the emergence of
Loyola University was begun.
In 1908 the Lincoln College of
Law was founded, and in 1909
a new charter was obtained
under the name ·of Loyola Uni­versity.
Also in 1909, a medical de­partment
was formed in the
school.
Move to Lake Shore
As the north-side campus
grew, the old site of St. Igna­tius
College dwindled and by
1922 the entire Arts College was
moved .to the new campus. One
building, the Cudahy Science
Hall, had been donated by
Michael Cudahy and his son,
and was completed in 1911.
Then in 1922 the Lake Shore
Campus Administration Build­ing
was completed, and two
years laetr a 500,000 Alumni
Gymnasium was ready for use.
In 1930 the campus boasted of
a stadium and an athletic field,
and in ·that same year it was
enhanced by its beautiful li­brary,
a memorial donated by
Edward A. Cudahy.
Madonna Della Strada Chapel
One ·of the most beautiful
buildings on the grounds is the
Madonna Della Strada Chapel
on the lake front of the campus.
This chapel was begun in 1938
as a result of a personal fund
campaign initiated by the head
of the classics department. The
building, which cost approxi­mately
$450,000, has been in use
since 1940. It has been ".an ob­j€
ctof study and admiration by
artists ,and architects" because
of its beautiful and majestic
structure.
Another significant contribu­tion
to Loyola was made in 1946
when the Lewis Towers was
donated by its owner to the
school. This enabled the Uni­versity
to cope with the in­crease
in its enrollment 'after
the w,ar, and was made at a
time when it was needed most.
Schools at Loyola
Loyola fulfills a responsibility
and renders a service to Chi­cago
by means of its various
schools, institutes, and service
agencies. In one year, for ex­ample,
its free Medical Clinic
treated approximately 38,000
patients, 'and its Dental Clinic
8,500 patients!
The University has schools of
Medicine, Law, Social Work,
Commerce, Nursing, and a Cen-tel'
for Child Guidance. It also
has a Graduate Sollool, a School
of Divinity (conducted for the
instruction of Jesuit seminari­ans
only), an Institute of Social
Administration, and a Research
Institute of Jesuit History. All
these are in addition to its Col­lege
of Arts and Sciences.
The Medical School
The School of Medicine, ap­proved
by the Am€rican Medi­cal
Association, is nationally
kno·wn and recognized for its
wartime service, Its Medical
Unit (the 108th General Hos­pital)
has served its country
well in two wars.
Today one out of every four
practicing physicians in Chi­cago
holds Loyol,a as his Alma
Mater. The Medical School
Alumni numbers over 4,000.
Most of this University's re­search
work is in medicine and
dentistry. The Lewis Maternity
Hospital, which is affiliated
with the University Medical
School, has pioneered in new
obstetrical and gynecological
procedures. '11his hospital is di­rected
by Dr. Herbert E.
Schmitz, the head of these de­partments
at the Medical School,
a man who is recognized as one
of the bes.t in his field in the
country.
Other Contributions
The School of Law has gradu­ated
over 1,200 lawyers and
jurists since its formation, and
the School of Dentistry has
assumed a commanding position
among the dental schools of the
world. This school has more
than 7,000 graduates to its
credit.
The School of Commerce
leads all other schools reg'aJrding
medal winners in the Illinois
Certified Public Accountant Ex­aminations,
while the Center
for Child Guidance serves about
400 applicants each year, in­cluding
unhappy, retarded, or
maladjusted children, parents
with family problems, and
adults who seek personal and
vocational data.
To list all the ·outstanding
alumni of Loyola would be im­possible,
so recognition of but
a few mus.t suffice to show the
significance of this University.
Included among its gJraduates
is Major..JGeneral Joseph Car­roll
(Law, '40) the present di­rector
of the security program
for the U.S. Air Force, on leave
of absence from the FBI.
Also included are Honorable
William F. Waugh, judge of the
Probate Court of Chicago, and
Federal Judge William Camp­bell.
These, as' well as' several
faculty member graduat€s
prominent in medicine and den­tistry,
give a slight inkling of
Loyola's contributions to so­ciety.
To 'augment this, more­over,
it should be mentioned
that Loyola University gradu­ates
constitute 46% of Ohicago's
dentists, and 25% of the city's
physicians!
The Man is Innocent
(Editor's note: This is the first
in a feature series dedicated to
Jesuit Education in America,
and is written by Charles Black,
'52. It is hoped that with the
completion of this series Fair­field
students, members of one
of the youngest institutions in
the large "family" of Jesuit uni­versities
and colleges in Ameri­ca,
will be aware of the tradition
and education which they share
with thousands of other students
throughout the country.
The editors wish to express
their appreciation to those var­ious
institutions for their kind
attention. interest, and response,
and in particular to the individ­uals
at each university through
whose efforts the material for
this series was compiled.)
The Creightonian ~aculty is
also famous in its own right. The
present University President,
Very Rev. Carl M. Reinert, S.J.,
is one of the youngest college
presidents in the nation. His
brother, the Very Rev. Paul C.
Reinert, S.J., is President of St.
Louis University, while another
brother, James, is now studying
for ordination into the Jesuit
Order.
Another famous Jesuit at
Creighton was Rev. William F.
Rigge, S.J., who died in 1927.
Father Rigge is famous for his
invention, the Creighton Har­monic
Motion Machine, and was
a man with great astronomical
knowledge. He was director of
the University astronomical ob­servatory
and put his knowledge
to good use when he cleared an
attempted murder suspect of the
crime of which he was accus­ed.
Father Rigge determined the
innocence of the man by show­ing
that a shadow in a picture
of a witness, taken on the day
of the crime, proved that this
witness who supposedly saw the
suspect was having her picture
taking at the time the murder
attempt was made!
TV at Creighton
President's Personal
Physician
General Graham grad­uated
from Creighton's
School of Medicine in
1936. In World War II he
took part in the Battle of
Normandy, st. Lo, the
Bulge, and in the cross­ing
of the Rhine.
Television is the latest en­deavor
at Creighton and since
its beginning in 1946, Creighton­ians
have participated in the de­velopment
of this medium of
communication.
Alert to the possibilities of this
new medium, Creighton Univer­sity
was eager to have her stu­dents
and faculty become train­ed
and adept in its operational
techniques. A Creigton alumnus,
John J. Gillin, provided the op­portunity.
As President of Radio
Station WOW, Inc., he persuad­ed
the board of directors to
purchase $50,000 worth of tele­vision
equipment and to train
a staff for its operation. The only
problem was the lack of space
for the new equipment, and here
Creighton stepped in. The Uni­versity
offered the station
the use of its Auditorium
fadities. Thus WOW-TV
came into being, and
Creightonians had an on­the
- campus opportunity
to study and operate tele­vision
techniques and
equipment.
Creighton lists among
its better than 13,000
alumni s u c h prominent
names Francis P. Mat­thews

to Ireland), Brig.
General Wallace H. Gra­ham

to President Harry S.
Truman), and Wyoming's

Today 55 Jesuit teachers
and 383 lay teachers prepare the
youth of America in the fields of
medicine, law, dentistry, pharm­acy,
journalism, nursing, busi­ness,
education, social service,
and technical and other occu­pations.
Because of its vast ex­pansion,
the school 110 longer
offers free education, but now
has to require tuitions of its
students.
The Creighton University cam­pus
is virtually a city in itself
with 25 buildings in all, and
even boasts of a TV station
within its limits.
Extracurricular activities are
numerous, and include the cam­pus
radio station KOCU which
broadcasts daily, and a bi­monthly
television production.

Many may wonder where or
how these brothers accumulated
their fortune which they so gen­erously
bestowed upon the Uni­versity.
Edward, John and James
Creighton had come to Omaha
in 1856 and within 15 years had
shown their influence in such
fields as the construction of tele­graph
lines, wagon-express busi­nesses,
stock investments, and in
founding important banking es­tablishments.
An integral part of
the motion picture "Western
Union" centered about John's
and Edward's efforts and trials
in linking Omaha with the Pa­cific
coast by telegraph wires,
thus completing the coast-to­coast
link-up.
Edward Creighton had long
cherished the idea of founding a
free school for boys, but died
without seeing his dream ful­filled.
His widow, however,
brought the dream into actuality
by willing $50,000 for the con­struction
of her husband's free
college, as well as $147,000 as
the initial endowment!
Edward's younger brother,
Count John A. Creighton, enter­ed
the picture and with addi­tional
contributions helped build
the University. Classes were
held in the new school in Sep­tember,
1878.
Gift after Gift
John Creighton piled gift
upon gift on the University until
by 1907, when he died, he had
added the Colleges of Medicine,
Law, Dentistry, and Pharmacy
to the original school.
But he didn't stop there. As
influenltial in death as in life,
Count John Creighton willed, as
his last donation to the school
bearing his family's name, $1,­250,000
for the endowment fund.
This fund today totals about
$2,500,000, of which more than
two million dollars has been do­nated
by Creighton families.
Creighton Family Leaves Fabulous Endowment To University; TV Big Campus Activity
What is the best way in
which to make one's influ­ence
felt both during life
and long after death? Prob­ably
the best choice would
be in the realm of ideas,
not in the world of things,
for things become outmod­ed.
It has been said that
"Ideas, .if basically sound,
never go out of date." Most
likely Edward and John
Creighton shared this opin­ion,
for through their en­deavors
and endowments,
Creighton University in
Omaha, Nebraska came in­to
existence.

Back in the fall of 1949 Fairfield University organ­ized
its first intramural sports events, under the direc­tion
of the Reverend Gerald Kinsella, S.J. It was at
this time that I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Rice.
It seems that Bill was trying to get up an intramural
football team to enter the newly formed league, -and it
was my good luck that he asked me to play with his
team which was called "Rice's Raiders."

second half, tied the score, went
again into the lead, and then
lost it. The rest of the quarter
saw the lead change hands sev­eral
times, with no more than
two points separating each time.
Each team appeared to be slug­gish
and frequently threw the
ball away via poor passes. At
the end of the third period, Fair­field
took a three point lead,
40-37.
The fourth quarter started
slowly, as if each team were
waiting for the other to make
the first mistake. Rider, thanks
to some fancy shooting on the
part of J4n Postal, after tieing
the score, shot into the lead with
less than four minutes to go.
Here, apparently, Fairfield ran
out of "gas," as the Stags were
unable to garner a basket. With
Rider leading 48-44, baskets by
Denner, plus a foul conversion
by Goeke, put Rider ahead by
nine points, and the best that
the Stags could offer was a three
point play by Bobby Gerwein
with seconds left to play.
Gerwein led the Stags with 14
points, ably assisted by Suchen­ski
with 13. John Ward and Jim
Postal were the offensive guns
for Rider with 13 and 11 tallies
respectively,
Delivering an impressive per­formance
in their opening test,
the Fairfield Jayvees outlasted
the Graduate School, 50-48, in a
nip and tuck contest at the
Bridgeport Armory last Wednes­day
night. The cagers of Coach
Ken Kunsch had the edge in
the batte of zone defenses.
After a slow start by the Grad
School, in which the Jayvees
were able to take a decisive lead
on the accurate shooting of Fred­dy
Lane and George Boser,
Frank Pelligrino and Babe Ris­ley
found the range to knot mat­ters.
The score continued to
sway to both sides with the Gra­duate
School finally leaving the
court at the half with a 20-18
leild.
The second half saw the older
crew pull ahead on the spirited
playmaking and shooting of var­sity
coach, Jim Hanrahan and
Jack Mullady, but the Stag un­derstudies
were not to be easily
pushed aside. Aided by the pass­ing
of Lane and the rebounding
of Bob O'Keefe and Jim Staple­ton,
the Jayvee squad again
edged ahead and outlasted their
older foe to take a close two­point
decision.
High scorer for the night was
the rangy Pellegrino with 24
points, while Risley swished the
nets for 11. Though the game
did not reveal an individual
scoring threat for the Jayvees, it
was easily a team victory with
the points being well divided
among the players. Fred Lane
led the scoring with 11, while
Boser followed with 10.
On Friday, the Jayvees won
their second game of the young
campaign, defeating Quinnipiac
College, 64-54. This game was
also played at the Armory.

and ten men added at least one

Inaccuracy from the foul line
and a defense which fell apart
on occasion seemed to be the
major faults of the team which,
offensively, looks like the best
in the area.
Rider 53. Fairfield 47
More than 700 fans, many of
them from the 1951 graduating
class, sat in on the proceedings
against Rider. However, the
Stags failed to cooperate in pro­ducing
a win for the Alumni,
although they gave a good ac­count
of themselves. The old
"bugaboo" that plagues' many a
team, inability to hit from the
foul lines, wreaked havoc on the
Men in Red, as they were woe­fully
weak, being able to cash in
on only thirteen of thirty-one
attempts.
The Stags started out in great
fashion and quickly ran up an
early 9-2 lead. Rider, with some
good outside shooting, managed

Fairfield University's Red Stags split a pair of home
games last week, losing to Rider College last Friday,
53-47, on the first Alumni night in the school's history,
after they had drubbed Willimantic State Teachers Col­lege,
83-61 two days earlier.
Tomorrow night, Kings Point Merchant Marine
Academy will supply the opposition at the Armory.
This will be the Stags' final game before the holiday
recess.
Stags 83-Willimantic 61
The Redmen had too much
height and depth for the upstate
Educators and led from the open­ing
whistle. The Stags led 29-17
at the end of the first period,
50-33 at the half, and 67-46 at
the start of the final stanza.
Jimmy Homa and Stan Su­chenski
led the scorers with 17
and 16 points respectively, but
had to share the spotlight with
two freshmen, Tom Flynn and
Fred Lane, who played sensa­tional
ball while they were in
action. Lane caged 14 points on
some great shooting while Flynn
scored 13 and played a good
game under both boards.

Walt McNally was the shining
light for the Blue and White
lineup garnering 16 points and

Although Bill didn't partici­pate
in the actual playing of any
games, it was his coaching along
with players like Jack Doheny,
Larry Fagan, Norbert Fahey,
Jim Grosso and John Bigley, not
to mention the inspiring ball that
was played by the two co-cap­tains,
Barrett and Lane that
made them champions.
It was on November 29, 1951,
two years later than originally
scheduled, that Rices Raiders,
now called Phuir's Filosophers,
met and defeated the Schafters
12-6.
The Filosopher's Doheny, with
two successive passes, one to
Fagan, and the other to Fahey,
put the Filosophers out in
front and kept them there. It
was the fine defensive playing of
Lane, Groosso, and Bigley that
kept the Filosophers in posses­sion
of the ball through most
of the game. The Schafters
fought back well, and on a pass
from Joe Milewski to Ed Galla,
they scored their only TD.

in the past. They rolled up vic­tory
after victory and became
the undefeated champions in
1950.
This year the Schafters re­entered
competition with their
fine record of eight straight wins,
and felt sure of another unde­feated
year. They went all out
on a publicity campaign, pub­licizing
their record and daring
other teams in the school to
come out and meet them on the
gridiron.
It was old man destiny again
who brought Bill Rice back to
school in time to reorganize his
team to meet the Schafters' chal­lenge.
It seems that this year
Bill had a little trouble locating
all the members of the old Raid­ers
for there were only three or
four left. It seems that marriage
and the armed forces had con­sumed
the whole line of the
team. Bill, determined to meet
the challenge of the Schafters,
began reorganizing the team.
While organizing this new team,
he ran into Chris Barrett and
Bob Lane who had the same in­tent
in mind, namely to meet the
challenge of the Schafters and
defeat them if they could. It was
suggested by Barrett, as long as
the team was to be changed,
that the name should also be
changed for luck. That they did,

Second Chance
A second opportunity to apply

first week of the second semes­ter.
This opportunity is provided
primarily for those whose three
year average fell short of the
required 85% by some small
margin. Grades earned during
the first semester of Senior Year
will contribute to the general
average and may improve the
standing of some men so that
they will be able to qualify for
membership. Since this group

be an increase of three points in
the amount of extra-curricular
credits necessary for qualifica­tion.

It's the festive season! It's
time to be merry! It's the day
before Christmas! It's a day on
which half of America spends
shopping in a frenzy and the
other half spends shaking in
tense anticipation. We find an­ether
figure trembling on this
day in a hospital bed, but the
cause is fear since he is about
to lose a leg in another hour.
He's a young marine, wounded
in Korea.
He stares blankly at the ceil­ing
and his mind seeks some
consolation in curses and oaths,
for he's bitter and on the verge
of despair. He scoffs at the cru­cifix
on the wall and ironically
thanks it for a fine Christmas
gift. His face becomes distorted
with rage and he shouts a classi­cal
phrase at the wall, "Why,
why did it have to happen to
me?" He repeats it again and
again, less audibly each time as
if searching for the answer with­in
himself.
Then his glance catches a
small, carefully wrapped Christ­mas
present which his mother
had sent him. He opens it des­pondently,
thinking of the thrill
he used to have as a kid, tearing
the presents apart on Chris·tmas
morning. Having opened it he
draws out an expensive pair of
black rosary beads. On the card
beneath a painting of the Christ
Child, his mother had written,
"Merry Christmas son, from
One, Who like you, had to give
so much! ... "
The soldier's body relaxed and
he whispered, looking again at
the cross, "Thanks, thanks for
the strength and understanding." 1.---------------
The amputation was perform­ed
later that dav. As the doctor
left his room the'following morn­ing
he said ito the nurse, "I'm
afraid the operation was' too
much for his heart, he's not like­ly
to pull through - what's that
he keeps mumbling about?"
"Well, doctor, it sounds to me
something like-the greatest gift
of all."
"The greatest gift of all - the
greatest gift of all, hum, that's a
twist. Strange though, very
strange.... "

sphere-the campus-and that it
was the purpose of an effic~ent
council to act as an intermedIate
between the groups. We were
slightly amused at the proble~s
faced by many of the councIls
(i.e. proctoring in the library,
selling class rings) and as the
discussion progressed found that
our councilar efforts were far
more important and effective
than those of the other schools.
Mainly it was discovered that
Fairfield's Administration was
much more willing to allow us
to handle matters that other col­leges
confined to Administrative
decision. Further, most councils
were allowed a narrow limit of
jurisdiction in which to operate
plus the fact that a majority of
them were required to include
four or five faculty members in
their number. This would pre­sent
a problem to any councV
plus the power of the council
moderator to veto any action of
which he disapproves. I might
add that our Moderator has this
power but in five years has nev­er
exercised it. Other colleges
are not so blessed or perhaps fail
to realize the Administrative
position. Albertus Magnus was
unique in this regard, in that
their council president had the
power of over-riding the moder­ator's
veto! In financial matters,
however, all other councils had
a distinct advantage over Fair­field.
All control the student ac­tivities
fee at their schools and
portion out expenses to the var­ious
activities in their schools
according to a bUdg~t which is
presented by each club president
to them. Although it would seem
to place unusual power in a
council's hands it was almost a
unanimous policy. In Fairfield's
circumstances this would appear
somewhat extreme but a modifi­cation
of it would undoubtably
eliminate many of the financial
problems facing council here.
In retrospect, Fairfield's dele­gation
attended in the hope that
much would be learned from the
experiences of other councils.
Much was learned but the most
impressive factor was that our
council acts on matters which
other schools leave in Adminis­trCitive
hands. It is a sign that
the University officers here place
far most trust in the students'
hands and are willing to allow
us to decide important policies
affecting ourselves.

On The Serious Side
As of the first day of the sec­ond
semester, there will be a
general assessment of $1.00 per
year, per student, and it will be
payable' during the first week of
the first semester.
The money will be used to
fortify the Student Fund, the
purpose of which is to finance
any and all student obligations,
such as activities, etc. It will
also enable the school to become
a member of various intercolleg­iate
organizations, which will, in
turn, increase the stature of
Fairfield in the national collegi­ate
picture.
This assessment plan had been
discussed at great length, but
was finally duly presented and
passed at the meeting of Dec. 11,
1951.
Personally, I think that it is
about time. The Student Council
has been hanging by its financial
teeth long enough and it had to
take a stand on income some·
where. After all, it is a student's
organization, its members being
elected bv the student body, and
therefore: if anyone should sup­port
it, it should be the students.
Amen.
