'JF, s eniov students of the World, reaching the crest o[ the hill,
stand awhile and look back
in order to store in memory
those several personal images
which will serve as reminders
of the years spent at Alma Mater.
We Seniors, [irst salute the Administration,
and then watch fellow Graduates pass by.
Formal Occasions are seen in tinted sepia.
After glimpses of the various Classes,
we review Athletics at the Uniwersity
concluding with th run of Activities.
These, the substance of our collegiate life,
we wish to bind for life, within
"THE WINDHOVER" To Christ Our Lord
I caught this morning morning's minion, king dom of daylight's dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon in his riding Of the rolling level underneath steady air, and striding High there, how he rung upon the rein of a wimpling wing In his ecstasy! then off, off forth on swing. As a skate's heel seeps smooth on a bow-ben: the hurl and gliding
Rebuffed the big wind. My heart in hiding Stirred for a bird.^the achieve of, the mastery of the thing!
Brute beauty and valour and act, oh, air, pride, plume, here Buckle! And the lire that breaks from thee then, a billion Times told lovelier, more dangerous. O my chevalier!
No wonder of it: sheer plod makes plough down sillion Shine, and blue black embers, ah my dear. Fall, gall themselves, and gash gold-vermilion.
—Gerard Manley Hopkins, S.J. RELIGIO The lofty flight of the Windhover, reflecting the mastery of Christ, symbolizes the sublime aspira tions which have been nourished in us by the spirit of our education: the search for eternal values by following the Truth and the Life.
CULTURA Christ our Lord, the Chevalier, epitomizes the excellence each of us strives to achieve. His is the ideal Manhood that has been held up for us to emulate. Supremely inimitable, yet ever demand ing imitation. His "beauty and valor and act" are the glorious exemplar our eyes have been trained to see, our hearts to follow.
MORES By meek submission to suffering and death, the Divine Master displayed with faultless magnifi cence that supernatural humility without which no man can progress spiritually. Just as the grain of wheat must fall into the ground and die before it can realize its capacities, so too must we lowly "plowmen" accept sorrow and toil in a spirit of humble obedience as we work to cultivate true and noble Christian personalities.
-P.P.L. DEDICATION
JLn this memorable year of our own lives, We, the Senior Class, are happy to felicitate on the golden anniversary of his ordination. His Holiness, Pius XII.

REVIEW OF '48-'49 SEASON The Royals started off their 1948-49 season looking like world-beaters as they won their first three games handily enough, but the lack of height and experience and the caliber of the opposition on the schedule proved to be too much of a handicap to overcome. The season record showed nine victories and fifteen defeats, as well as a whale of a lot of near-misses. Coach James (Bucky) Freeman's charges were an unpredictable lot, suffering upsets at the hands of lightly- regarded foes and turning around to play brilliant ball against some of the nation's top teams.

Starting the campaign with only three regulars with previ Joe Bush, Captain ous varsity experience, the Royals won six of thirteen games In fast collegiate competition to give promise of great things to come on the diamond for the University in the near future. Captain Joe Bush in the outfield, and shortstop Jackie Mattes and second baseman Paul Datti were the only lettermen available for duty when the season started, but the Purple won their first four starts before losing to Albright. Losses on the road and crowded week-end home schedules proved to be too big a load for the inexperienced Royals, but they brought their record back up to the .500 mark before losing the final game of the season to La Salle at Philadelphia. Highlights of the season were the terrific slugging of the Purple and White diamond crew, especially that of Joe Lebida, who set a new University batting mark with a sizzling .480; the flashy fielding and brilliant hitting of Jackie Mattes; the emerg ence to stardom of pitcher Pat Lavelle; the home run hitting of Tony Treic, and the great third base play of frosh Lou Haydu. The only seniors on the squad were Joe Bush and Larry Ro- settl. Bush wound up a four-year collegiate baseball campaign with a .301 batting mark, and the tiny RosettI, a pitcher with In credibly bad luck, won two and lost one, for a four-season record of eight wins and six losses.

Encouraging signs of increasing interest in the teams have been displayed, but as yet Coach Emmett Jordan is still handicap^ ped by lack of material. Last Fall, the Harriers lost all of their meets, while the Trackmen fared little better during the Spring season, winning only once when they defeated Triple Cities College in the Anthracite Games. Individual performances provided a few bright spots in the otherwise drab season. The durability of such cross country stars as Don Kudrec and Joe Jennes; sprinter Don Betterly's jet-like speed which won for him a 100-yard dash rcord; and the sensational pole-vaulting of Holmes Ca- thrall lent strength to the teams.

SWIMMING Scranton University's swimming team, directed by Coach Bob "Muddy" Waters, and Captained by Bill Malone, enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in the annals of the water sport. The Royal natators compiled an 8-3 record, losing only to La Salle, Seton Hall Loyola. La Salle, a swimming power in the East, was captained by Joe Verdeur, A.A.U, breaststroke champion. A feature of the highly successful season was the performance of the freestyle relay squad, which chalked up 23 consecutive victories. Outstanding performances were turned in by Capt. Malone, who performed at the backstroke and the 30-yard record-breaking medley team; Joe Jennes, who broke a 10-year standing record in the backstroke, and Tom Cullen, who broke the freestyle record.

It endeavors to develop the literary talents of University men and at the same time to chronicle the happenings of the University itself. This past m>^ year has been an eventful one and Aquinasmen have had ample #' ;* opportunity to carry out both purposes. In putting out a student paper certain issues seem destined for acclaim by the students. The Aquinas is justly proud of its experiments with three-color print in its Christmas issue The purple-hued Easter issue and the April Fool edition were eagerly sought. The leading social event of The Aquinas year is the News paper Banquet at which campus life is lampooned and Golden Spluvka awards are presented to outstanding University men.

The constitution of the Art Club of the University defines its purpose as one aiming toward an under standing and appreciation of the fine arts, noting par ticularly the manner in which the thought and civiliza tion of the age manifested itself in this art. Subservient to this is the club's secondary objective, the study of the techniques and development of art. Up to the present the Art Club has considered the art of the Byzantine period and the civilization of an cient Greece, and the masters of the Renaissance pe riod. Germanic art too occupied a considerable por tion of the club's activity. The Art Club, as yet in the embryonic stages of its development, has taken its place among the import ant activities of the University and is looking forward to a successful future. 7<^ ^^^tct ESf—---•• ME***'* _. - . .

It was in the Fall of 1948 that the musicians gathered to reorganize the former University Band. Uniforms were pro cured and officers chosen at that time. Mr. Robert Weibel be came Drum Major. From a nucleus of seven men, The Band has steadily grown until now its members number over forty. Crowning achievement of The Band came with the presenta tion of a full-scale concert at Temple Auditorium which was received with much acclaim. This year, for the first time in University history.

Ti ; V i.'Cr hMti Newest among the organizations here is the University of Scranton Chapter, Student Affiliates, American Chemical So ciety. Although this club was chartered in April, 1949, it was really the outgrowth of 20 years' development. Originally it was founded in the late 1920's as the Pi Mu Alpha Honorary Chemical Society through the efforts of the late Rev. Brother Flamian, FSC. In 1939 the group merged with the Biology Club, the Tri Sigma. Early in September, with the increased enrollment in the Chemistry field, it was evident that a separate organization should be formed to aid the students in keeping abreast of the latest developments and discoveries in the field of Chemistry. Plans were made and the entire department worked feverishly to complete the charter before the end of the year. In April the charter was granted and the University became affiliated with the American Chemical Society. The objectives of the organization are to encourage in the broadest and most liberal manner the advancement of Chemis try in all branches.

Neary iHyga THE CANA SOCIETY Since many of the veterans who returned to college after World War II were married, they decided to band together and form a group for married men and their wives. Appropri ately, the name chosen was the Cana Society. Thus, in the Fall of 1946 the first meetings of the group were held. Specialists in all fields were invited to address the men and their wives, and attendance increased steadily. In September, '48, the first elections were held, for the group had become so large that special committees had to be set up in order to handle invitations, speakers and refreshments. During the past year monthly meetings have been held at which doctors, lawyers, psychologists, pediatricians and econo mists addressed the gatherings, Cana membership reached its all-time high this semester.

From meager beginnings in September, the Debating Club has risen to new heights of prestige as a result of the debaters' untiring efforts and success. Bill Sullivan, Bob Connerton and Guy Petroziello, in de bates with Marywood and St. Joseph's College (Philadelphia), emerged victorious. Not content with these honors, the group fqrmed a radio forum (below), where they discussed pertinent topics over radio station WQAN-FM. A federation of the regional colleges—Kings, Marywood, Misericordia and U. of S.^was formed through the efforts of the Scranton Debaters. Bob Connerton was chosen to head the four-college group. On June 6 the organization sponsored an oratorical contest on the subject: The Papacy and Communism. Arthur A. North was awarded the medal for the best presentation. 4>r\M.

The German Club exists at the Uni versity to promote the use of the Ger man language in conversation and at the same time to awaken interest in German culture. The club also strives to prepare its members for correct so cial bearing and to give them self-re liance. The outstanding German Club social event of the school year is a dance which is held in observance of the Feast of St. Nicholas. In addition there is an annual Social at which the Freshmen are welcomed into the or ganization. Within the club is a special commit tee on music which was headed this year by Forrest Speicher, '50.

The influx of returning war veterans, particularly those who had been in France, tended to reactivate the organization and to return it to its former status. Last year the mem bers drew up a new and liberalized consti tution. Elections resulted in the selection of William Badger as the first president. Discussions were held in the French language. Members learned and sang French folktunes; they analyzed and com pared the literature of France with that of other European nations under the influence of the Romance Languages; the organiza tion sponsored bi-weekly French-language motion pictures. Through these media the members learned the customs of the French and attained facility in conversational French. President (above) Ralph E.

Special programs were arranged to meet the intel lectual, artistic and social needs of the out of town students. The club is justly proud of its reputation as one of the more active organizations at Scranton. It had teams entered in every intramural league at the University; it founded the bowling and basketball leagues. One of its most successful achievements was the establishment of an annual Communion Breakfast with the Boarders of Marywood College. The Out-of-Towners hold a number of social functions throughout the school year and are the sponsors of an annual dance. THE PHYSICS CLUB Pi^esident Charles Hoppel Vice-President Thomas Ruane Secretary Pj.ank Padden Treasurer Joseph Reddington Moderator Dr. Joseph P. Harper The Physics Club of the University of Scranton was founded during the Fall semester of this year. It owes its origin to the inspiration of Dr. Joseph P. Harper, head of the Physics Department. A major development was the organization of the Physics Club monthly publication, the 'Thysics Bulletin," edited by Norman Moir. It contains news of club activities and informa tive articles on various aspects of physical science, written by both the undergraduates of the Physics Department and its alumni in the graduate schools and in industry. In keeping with the objectives of the club, brief talks were given by members on a wide variety of subjects, films on re search and development were shown and a tour was made of the Scranton Electric Company. The two important social events on the calendar were the "get-together" party for stu dents and teachers and the Fall Semester banquet in honor of the graduating students.

THE STUDENT COUNCIL President Joseph D. Burke Vice-President James Furey Secretary-Treasurer Herbert Hummler Moderators Rev. Arthur A. North, S.J. and Mr. Frank C. Brown Functioning as a coordinating and integrating body, the University of Scranton Student Council during the past year has made its power felt throughout the campus. Through it were channeled the important matters concerning the student body and student organizations. These included setting-up the all-important Social Calendar, adjusting student grievances and supervising the class elections. Though the Council has been functioning only for the past two years, nonetheless in that brief span it has come more and more to the fore. The Council this year was largely instrumental in the establishment of a four-college federation, forming a local unit of the National Federation of Catholic College Students. mr VfSii5i4a?V.'vv^mmw^ff; ¥ ;M ^ V •• "•?••».

Martin, S.J. The Sodality of Our Lady was founded at the University with the coming of the Jesuit Fathers in 1942. It was not until March of 1948 that the Sodalists voted unanimously to change the name of the organization to The Swordsmen, feeling that this title typified the spiritual zeal with which they strove to foster devotion to Christ and His Blessed Mother. Swordsmen rival all other University organizations in their continued activity. Within their numbers are groups of spe cialists in order that Swordsmen aims might be the more easily accomplished. Among these groups are the Mariologists, the Pamphleteers, and the Social Relief Workers. The Swords men also sponsor their own basketball and bowling teams. Each October the Swordsmen present their Mission Belle Dance which serves as the "kick-off" for the University's so cial season. Proceeds for this dance are forwarded to the Jesuit Missions in India.

Victor R. Yanitelli, S.J. Notable success was achieved by the group in the productions "Brother Orchid" and "The Seven Keys to Baldpate." Last year, wishing to identify the dramatic association more directly as an undergraduate effort of University students, the members voted to simplify the club's name to read: The University o[ Scranton Players. Membership in the Players is open to all students of the University, and its purpose is to provide such productions and presentations as will best serve to further appreciation for the theatre arts. The group's production of "Crown Colony," with an all- male cast of twenty-nine student members, was received by audiences as "thoroughly professional, absorbing drama." The Players have had success also with their two weekly half-hour radio shows on WQAN-FM and WSCR.

Weissbergcr Harold's Men's Shop Mr. and Mrs. Edward Weissburger In every one of the University's extra-curricular activities there comes a time when outside financial assistance is needed. Many of our experiments in student functions depend upon the support given it by local businessmen. The success or failure of the several capable, and often expert, programs here, hinges upon this support. Throughout the East, and at Inter-Collegiate competitions, the University of Scranton representatives are al ways held in high esteem. Scholastically as well as in extra-curricular activities. University men rate high. Several factors are responsible for this consistent success. These factors include, of course, the students background, his ability, his training, and in no small part, the encouragement and support he receives. It would be ungrateful indeed, for him or his rooting section, after the victory, to forget to thank each of the individuals that contributed so much to his success. At this time, we of The Windhover would like to take a deep bow to the businessmen who helped finance this year's University Annual. Since all students are actually a part of The Windhover, we can best say thanks in patronizing them. Don't forget to mention "The Windhover." ADVERTISEMENT INDEX ACCOUNTING GAS Paul R.
