    9 6 0 THE OAKS 1960 PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENT COUNCIL OF SAINT AMBROSE COLLEGE, DAVENPORT, IOWA DENNIS RYAN, PRESIDENT WILLIAM WOLFE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF JOHN SCIAR1NE BUSINESS MANAGER ROBERT HOGAN ASSOCIATE EDITOR DANIEL SHEA MANAGING EDITOR JACK RUFF PHOTOGRAPHIC EDITOR i||.: -.-.SSI* -IJH. ::, .:-.!*<• FOREWORD In The Brothers Karamazov Dostoevsky makes Alyosha tell the boys at Ilusha's stone that an important part of education is the acquisition of happy memories — that after the years men find themselves being kept good by memories of having been so. M We are older than Ilusha's schoolfellows. But men at college are fm not so old that they miss the disinterested affection, the spontaneous gaiety and the uncomplicated generosity which are the marks of youth. Someday it will be difficult to remember how we were gay and good with so few misgivings. This book is intended to be read on that someday. This book is a hard bound mnemonic for fine times and fine people. The Oaks 1960 makes no attempt to picture the intellectual labyrinth through which the student passes. We assume the effects of it but declare that a yearbook has little relation to it. The Oaks 1960 is a record for the future of what a pleasant place Saint Ambrose was in which to become a man. Some will say that this is to take education too lightly. To them the editors can say only that twenty-five years from now while they are reviewing their scruples, we shall be smiling at old times. s*mm.,,..,,,, 'if 5 *%m •i •# ••V » & m i *» i# Jf 1| •r : " jg 4k • * :;r #f > H iA 1 Ifr ^* r' ^P^ • • *1% mHk £ §0 M k ** \ 1*1 ill gm:mm^k,:;i^« DEDICATION REV.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
