The dedication of the building took place during the Homecoming celebration in October of that year. This Hall was named after Frank Lewis, Knight of St. Gregory and noted Chicago philanthropist. Lewis Hall now houses classrooms and laboratories. McAuley Hall One of the oldest buildings in use at St. Am brose, McAuley Hall, two miles southwest of the main campus, is a complete unit in itself. Besides the ordinary necessities of living, spiritual needs are met in the small chapel built by the Sisters of Mercy, the original occupants. The building functions as a miniature of the larger campus halls . . . In its long and colorful history, the hall has been used as a parochial school, a nurse's resi dence, an old women's convalescent home, a faculty residence building, and during the last war, as a Naval barracks for officer trainees. Since 1946, when the great majority of its in habitants were returned veterans, McAuley Hall has had its interior remodeled in a cool gray- green motif and now serves as an ordinary dormitory. It is named after Sister McAuley, founder of Entrance to McAuley Hall the Order of the Sisters of Mercy ^^JuniORS Leo Hardy, President Sam Compagno, Secretary-Treasurer First Row: T. Staley, R.

The action of this group during the school year has helped to coordinate activities among the various organizations on our campus. It has helped the students develop an interest not only in their own organization but in the wel fare of the student body as a whole. ^mm ,.._, jg Sflta 1Ep0tlnn i>tgma James G. Connor John N.

Students appearing in this play were: Dick Cruse, Denis Mahoney, Carl Koos, Don Wooten, John Cos tello, Tim O'Connell and Tom McGinn. Jack Sherwin served as stage manager and Joe Lauber handled lighting for the production. The Shakespearian production of last sea son, "Midsummer Night's Dream", proved to be so popular with the audiences that two of Scenes From Shakespeare's plays were placed on the "The Male Animal" agenda this season. The Ambrosian Players selected the tragedy "MacBeth" to end their season. All the productions of this season were under the direction of Charles Costello and his as sistants, Frank Getlein and Rev. Francis Marlin. College Band Clarence Kriesa, Director The St. Ambrose College Band, under the direction of Clarence Kriesa, has grown in the past two years to a fully equipped, well-trained organization of 60 instruments. The spring concert tour of the Band has spread its popularity throughout several midwestern high schools and serves as a good advertisement of the fine training in music to be obtained at St. Ambrose. In addition to the various concerts, the Band participates in the two main musical events that are produced annually by St. Ambrose and Marycrest—The Christmas Festival and the Spring Festival. Also on the Band's regular year's work are appearances in Diocesan and State Music Festivals. The colorful marching formations of the Band have helped to arouse fine school spirit at athletic contests, particularly during the foot ball season. As a marching unit, the Band is led by Drum Major Don Wooten.

The constitution for the club, drawn up at that time, was based on the one that governs the Notre Dame Monogram Club. When the Navy assumed control at St. Ambrose in 1943, the club was forced to disband temporarily from lack of members. Upon the return of the school to a peacetime basis in 1946, the Monogram Club reorgan ized and has developed since then into one of the most prominent student groups on the campus.

The topics presented at the bi-weekly meetings are in the fields of religion and philosophy or any sub ject having a basis for religious or philosophic debate. These discussions are usually presided over by one of the priests of the faculty who advise them in their debates. __ The Viatorians The Clerics of St. Viator is a religious community within the Roman Catholic Church. The community was founded a little over a century ago in France by the Rev. Louis Querbes. The three-fold aim of the institute consists of the sanctification of its mem bers, teaching of Christian Doctrine, and service of the Altars. The headquarters of the American pro vince, with The Very Rev. Richard French, C.S.V. as provincial superior, are located in Chicago where is also found the provincial novitiate or house of trial. Here, in Davenport, is the provincial scholasticate or the house of scholastic formation, with Very Rev. John Shipman, C.S.V., as the director. After a year of novitiate, the future catechists make vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience for three years. They are then sent to the scholasticate where they continue their religious studies and also enter upon a course of academic studies. The latter they pursue at St. Ambrose College for four years. After this, they are sent to the seminary to prepare for the ordination to the priesthood. It is also during their scholasticate that they make perpetual vows of the virtues mention ed above. The Brothers attending St. Ambrose College have a substantial degree of freedom in choosing their major fields, although they are advised and directed in this regard by their superiors. Most of them later continue in the graduate schools during summer sessions and after ordination. All these scholastic pursuits, however, point toward but one goal — Christian pedagogy.

Dorms In 1946 the government announced they were making former GI barracks available to colleges to alleviate the then acute housing shortage that existed on campuses. St. Ambrose authorities then applied for buildings to house single students. At the request of a group of married men—the application was changed and several additional buildings requested. The barracks were sent from the Fairmount Army Air Base and erected in time for occupancy in February of 1947. Popularly termed "GI Dorms", the barracks will probably remain on the campus as long as they are needed. At this time there are a total of 120 single students living in 8 dwellings, and 12 married couples living in 3 buildings.

The second canto was a cold one for the Bees, and the shooting of Bill Sandstrom was instrumental in causing the Bees to suffer defeat by a 53-47 verdict. The second game of the season was more successful, as the Bees stopped a St. Norbert winning streak at 5 with their 71-57 dunking of the Wisconsin lads.

But the fine spirit of the Bees kept them rolling as they swept past the Dutchmen, 59-51. Jack Donnelly was held by 6' 7" Stan Borgman, the Central pivot man, to 3 points, his lowest game total of the season. With the semester exams out of the way, Coach O'Connor moved his cagers up to West DePere, Wisconsin, to battle the Knights from St. Norbert's. The hoopsters really went to work, using their fast break to bury the Green Don Morris Knights by a score of 80-61. Kirby Lawlis swished the nets from all angles in the second half in counting 17 points for the evening, while Gola Waters showed the Wisconsin lads plenty of floor finesse. The Bees started on a western tour the 5th of February by losing a rough and rugged game to Creighton University at Omaha, Neb raska. The Bees committed 34 fouls which counted for 26 of the points for Creighton as the Bees went down to the tune of 56-43. The defensive maneuvers set-up by the Bluejays kept the Bees baffled, and the loss of key men on fouls hurt the St. Ambrose quintet consider ably. Bill Murdoch The powerful Regis Rangers were next for the Bees on their western swing, and the Den ver, Colorado, team showed why they had won 18 out of 20 games for the eason by sock ing a 62-44 defeat on the St. Ambrose squad. Bill Murdoch and Don Morris sparked the Bees, but it wasn't enough, as was indicated by the scoreboard. The St. Ambrose five returned to the home floor to smash St. Joe's at Rock Island Armory by the count of 62-47. This was the clincher to the Midlands Conference basketball crown for the Bees, since it was their fifth conference victory without a defeat. lack Donnelly returned to form by hooking 25 points through the nets. The play of Don Morris on defense was out Kirby Lawlis standing, as was the all-around play of every Bee player. Tim O'Connor's five suffered their sixth loss of the season, Tuesday night, February 15th, when the Leatherneck cagers from Western Illinois State of Macomb, Illinois, chalked up their 20th victory for the season by downing the Bees 57-43. The game was a see-saw battle the first half when the score stood at 28-28, but the second half found two reserve cagers for Western hitting the hoop with one- handed set shots to shove the Bees behind. The last few minutes the Leathernecks held on to the ball by shooting only when necessary, which kept the Bees from gaining any points on the Western dribblers.

Both boys were scheduled to participate in the National A.A.U. Wrestling tournament at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, but Dexter was forced out due to a rib injury. Michalik com peted and won his first two matches before losing on a fall to the A.A.U. heavyweight title winner in a semi-final round. Although this was Michalik's first loss, a big future lies ahead for the 19-year-old athlete and the wrestling picture in the years to come should prove very successful. Art Michalik Another athlete who represented St. Ambrose in the Na tional A.A.U. meet at Cedar Rapids was Dick Colson, a trans fer student from Iowa State Teachers who was ineligible for varsity collegiate competition at St. Ambrose this past season. Dick won his first match but lost a close verdict in his second contest. He should give the Bees plenty of strength in the 136- lb. division in 1949-50.

During the 1948 season Father Hratz's tennis squad lost to Iowa U., Minnesota U., Bradley, Cor nell, Western 111. State, and Loras. Lack of experience seemed to be the greatest handicap of the Bee court men, but Father Hratz expects the 1949 season to have a much brighter outlook. Although the Bees lost seven matches and tied only one, they were more successful when it came to tournament play in the Midlands and Iowa Conferences. The courtmen tied for first place in the Midlands Tournament and finished third in the Iowa Conference meet. Burke Dailey, former Davenport High tennis star, led the St. Ambrose singles competitors, as he fin ished the regular season with five wins in eleven matches. In tournament competition, Burke pulled down championship honors in the Midlands singles affair, but lost in the finals of the Iowa Conference Match. In doubles play, Clifford Squire and Malcolm Griffin were the top men for the Bees. They were able to reach the finals of the Iowa Conference meet before losing to Garvey and West of Loras. Squire & Griffin Leo Deutsch Intramural Sports Any time of the day or night you will probably find Leo Deutsch, intramural director, rushing around the St. Am brose campus keeping tab of the sports program which he inaugurated at St. Ambrose in 1947. Deutsch, who is also line coach in football, first set up an intramural pro gram at St. Rita's high school in Chi cago and in six years as director Leo had one of the finest sports programs in the Chicago district. Deutsch be lieves that "every student should be given a chance to participate in some form of competitive athletics while in school. In this way," he continues, "the students become better acquainted with one another and physical benefits are received through participation in the program." Starting from scratch in 1947, the St. Ambrose sports program is gaining momentum each year and at the pre sent time over 700 students are partici pating in intramurais. Basketball holds the No. 1 spot in popularity with over 360 students participating. Softball rates second with over 200 participants and is followed by volleyball with 160 com petitors. Other sports which have wide spread interest are: bowling, swimming, water polo, ping pong singles and dou bles, golf, and tennis. Director Deutsch has also held tournaments in pinochle, euchre, and checkers. Last year over 120 men competed in the pinochle tourna ment. Much work is involved each year in organizing and arranging the intra mural sports program. For instance, dur ing the 1948-49 season more than 36 teams took part in the basketball pro gram and the games were played each evening in the College Gym from 6:00 till 10:00 P. M. (except when the var sity teams of the college and academy were making use of the facilities). The basketball program was set up in four leagues and the winners in each league were: League 1—Umbriagos, Globetrot ters and Whitney Parishoners (all tied for 1st place); League 2—Dirty Socks; League 3—Tri-City Rockets; and League 4—Ot- tumwa Gaels. At the end of the season, the two top teams in each league participated in an elimination tournament to decide who would represent St. Ambrose in the an nual Midlands conference. All of the teams participating in the tournament were as evenly matched as any tournament op ponents could possibly be, with each aame a close battle to the finish. The Dirty Socks won the tournament by a narrow 25-24 thriller over the fast-break ing Ottumwa Gaels, but were eliminated in their first round of the Midlands Extra mural tourney by a St. Joseph intramural quintet. In other intramural play, the "Los Lo cos" volleyball team, composed entirely of students from Mexico, won the St. Am brose title for the second year in a row and captured second place honors in the Extramural tournament at St. Joseph. The "Umbriagos" bowling team, com posed of Zielinski, Ketza, Lesniak, Bonqes, Disher, Gotfryd, and Carbone, captured the "Bowladrome" title and also captured the championship title in the Midlands Extramural tournament. Ping-pong came next with Burke Daily topping the singles contestants and then teaming with Al Abdo, a Mexico City lad, to win the doubles title. Dailey and Abdo also combined to capture the Midlands Extramural doubles crown. Director Leo Deutsch wasn't able to bring home the first place award in the Midlands Extramural tournament, as he did in 1948, but the athletes put up a terrific versity of Nebraska, who is one of the leading battle before finishing in second place.
