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. -

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. -
