St. Ambrose University Digital Collections ill St. Ambrose College-Marycrest College Davenport, Iowa 1940 VOLUME XII •ass—• • • <*/*• I^K* -~\3 * * wm- j I ' 1 FOREWORD Interest in the student publications of St. Ambrose has always been more acute from the reader s standpoint than from that of the contributor or supporter. It is the purpose of this yearbook^ to cultivate the cooperation of all students, and journalists especially, in lending their talents to the composition of our college newspaper and magazine. OAKS represents a new addition to our ensemble of publications, and it intends, with the fresh enthusiasm which an innovation elicts, to elevate the standards and to facilitate the editing of campus publications., /With its revival the annual introduces a form of college journalism with which stu' dents and student writers have become unfamiliar during the past seventeen years. Enlivened interest and appreciation will, we hope, effect a literary renaissance at St. Ambrose. DEDICATION Friendship molds boo\s and buildings, students and professors, into a living, spiritual institution. One professor—a priest who spent his last two years at St. Ambrose as our president—was especially gifted with a faculty for making friends among the students. His contribution was greater than mere scholastic or executive accomplishment, for he gave his personality to the character of the college, and he raised the name of St. Am* brose to new heights with the enlightening influence of his exemplary career. Our memory of splendid victories and unbro\en records, of mighty teams and ex' ultant cheers is enriched by the picture of three coaches whose names will be legendary at St. Ambrose when their great teams have been forgotten. They have given us a tradi­ tion in athleticism, and the scores of intimate friends whom they left at St. Ambrose will ever support the standards which they established. It is with profound sincerity and appreciation that this initial OAKS is . dedicated % THE RT. REV. CARL H. MEINBERG, A.M. President of St. Ambrose College, 1937-19^0 And % W X^ WILFRED J.

SCHULTE First President of St Ambrose 3« # zmvxxam The Rt. Rev. A. J. Schulte, first president of St. Ambrose, died at a time when his college was opening a new era in the history of its progress. He had guided the school through those early, difficult years; he had opened a new Catholic college to the public when the first section of Ambrose Hall was constructed. Then, from his deanery in Iowa City, he followed the physical expansion of his old charge, and the rise of its scholastic standards. Now, when we have completed the plans for a greater St. Ambrose, and have seen the dream of Monsignor Schulte and his successors reach immediate realization, the man who would have enjoyed most this further blessing has been called to his eternal home. Fifty-eight years of service was his life's offering to God and his fellow men. The son of Joseph and Maria Schulte of Fort Madison, Monsignor Schulte was born on Sept. 17, 1858. His first school days were spent at St. Mary's parochial school in the city of his birth. He attended St. Joseph's academy at Dubuque, where he began his preparations for the holy priest­ hood. The remainder of his clerical education was taken at St. Francis Seminary, Milwaukee, and St. John's College, Collegeville, Minnesota. Having completed a splendid scholastic career, he was ordained in Dav­ enport on December 28, 1881. His character, mental qualities and personality influenced the authorities, despite his youthfulness, to put him at the head of the new diocesan college. St. Ambrose prospered under his guidance for several years, until he was transferred to St. Mary's at Iowa City in 1907. Twenty years later, with a lifetime of service already behind him, and two decades of continued labor ahead, he received the title of the Monsignori from his Holy Father, Pius XI. Further honor was bestowed on him when, four years later, he was raised to the rank of protonotary apostolic. He has been called from his earthly post, but his great spirit, joined now with his patron, Saint Ambrose, watches over the college beloved to them both. Monsignor Schulte has benefited St. Ambrose in the past; we increase our debt to him by seeking new aid through his intercession.

    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.

  • War of 1812 by Beth Carvey the Sauk and Meskwaki and the War of 1812 Prelude to War the War of 1812 Was a Significant Event in S
    War of 1812 by Beth Carvey The Sauk and Meskwaki and the War of 1812 Prelude to War The War of 1812 was a significant event in Sauk and Meskwaki history and also for many other native nations who resided along and near the Mississippi River. The War of 1812 was actually two wars: an international war fought between the United States and Great Britain in the east and an Indian war fought in the west. This article is the first of a four-part series which will explore the War of 1812 in terms of native peoples’ points of view, the military actions that occurred in the western frontier theater, and the consequences for the Sauk and Meskwaki that resulted from the American victory. In 1812 the western frontier was comprised of the Mississippi, Illinois, and Missouri River regions, encompassing parts of present-day Wisconsin, Illinois, and northwest Missouri. More than ten different native nations, including the Sauk and Meskwaki, lived on these lands with an estimated population of 25,000 people. After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 the native people of the region had been growing increasingly unhappy with the United States. Four main reasons were at the heart of this unhappiness: arrogance and ignorance on the part of many American officials; illegal white settlement on native lands; a number of treaties that dispossessed tribes of their lands; and economic matters, specifically the fur trade. The Sauk and Meskwaki had poor relations with the United States government since the signing of the fraudulent Treaty of 1804, whereby the two nations ceded over 50 million acres of land to the United States.
