SETON HALL UNIVERSITY 73 34 47 L-P . $ 2-1 The Centennial 1956 GALLEON s a 7 SETON HALL UNIVERSITY FOREWORD Hazard Zit Forward — in its one hundred years of growth, Seton Hall has prolifically exemplified this, its motto. The path from the frame structure in Madison to the majestic South Orange campus and its complement of Urban centers has not been an easy trail. The obstacles have been great; but forthright leadership coupled with divine guidance have brought these seemingly insurmountable barriers within the scope of human accomplishment. The Centennial Yearbook of Seton Hall University is an effort to graphically portray this century of progress. College annuals are generally a reflection of four years in the scheme of a school. They depict the academic, social, and athletic growth and accomplishment of a single class. The 1956 Galleon has not detoured from this accepted pattern. But, beyond chronicling the four years of the Class of 1956, the Centennial Galleon has entwined this, the present, with the past one hundred years of Seton Hall University 1207 (*' 55 ' ) tVl e Seton On*® !; the H oly . on ttan ed , ^ cord^^T-mal SV«". ^*i^ orL * Si®* 81 ® 11 ^ ap ostoX^ c 8l »ce*eW ***" a 3\it>s^ i ' tu Tjeliacqtt* ’ His Holiness Pope Pius XII 5 y»- ■Dea* ■eig^ We* eT® »tv& >« fi ^ s 9 uV» to ***** <%£•** . ■& 0 & 3 X « *** -.<•. „..

McCarthy Auxiliary Bishop of Newark 21 CONTENTS Dedication Administration Faculty The Centennial Story Graduates Underclassmen DEDIC Wc, the Class of 1956, dedicate this, our final work as undergraduates, to our alumni. Those people who once trod the hollowed halls of Setonia and have since gone on to bring greater glory to our alma mater. We only hope that we will be able to live up to the high standard of achieve- ment that they have set. We would especially like to pay homage to two particular groups of alumni — those who gave their lives in service of our country, and to those who have devoted their lives to God. In times like ours, it is well to remember those who have given their most precious gift, in this life, in order that we might remain free. In ATI ON an age when we find it very easy to sacrifice ideals in order that we might gain material advantages, we should think of those men who gave up their entire materiality for a cause. Whether they lie in a quiet cemetery in our town, in some little known part of Europe or# on some < tiny piece of sand in the Pacific, they are not forgotten. ” s ; * j Seton Hall can, of course, produce no better gT^duare than the one who devotes his life to God. The priestly sons of Setpnia besreTimplff^ the purpose of our institution. They are alstfltiien kho hav^ made great * material sacrifices in order to follow their^beliefs.

Its population was a proud 500,000. The frontiers of education were being slowly extended. Reforms introduced in the Con- stitution of 1844 were being implemented and enlarged by legislation. Railroads pushed their networks steadily outward from New York and Philadelphia. More newspapers were being pub- lished, more banks established, more postoffices opened. Industry was challenging the supremacy of an agricultural economy, and the prophetic words of Alexander Hamilton — “The future of the empire lies on the west bank of the Hudson'’ — were in process of fulfillment. Launched as she was in response to a knock on the door that came on the threshold of a supreme struggle for freedom, her hospitality to youth in quest of knowledge is limited only by her acadefnic requirements and facilities. Here race, creed and color impede no student. Here character, ability and industry comprise the only test. Under this Catholic concept, it is Seton Hall’s pride that she, in turn, has herself been honored by the confidence of young men and young women regardless of race, creed and color. From the summit of a century let us turn in brief contemplation of the indomitable figure with whom it all began; the first Bishop of Newark, the Most Reverend James Roosevelt Bayley. He was a man whose faith did not come by easy heritage. His family training, social environment, and aca- demic indoctrination were alien to Catholicity. His was a patrician house. Its warm hospitality was shared by leaders of the young nation, Jeffer- son, Hamilton, Madison; in time, this same house was to produce the only four-time President of the United States in the person of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This was the setting which cradled the youthful Bayley and impelled him to embrace the Epis- copalian ministry; and this was the implausible background of a man who, in the inscrutable providence of God, was ultimately by papal com- mand to ascend as Archbishop of Baltimore to the primatial See of the United States! Men of smaller stature would have been timid about opening a Catholic college in New Jersey in the 1850’s. The Know-Nothing movement had reached its climax, and by September, 1856, was splintering into the slavery controversy. Unem- ployment had invaded the state; it was widespread among Bishop Bayley ’s flock and continued to grow worse, culminating in the panic of 1857. Elizabeth Ann Seton James Roosevelt Bayley attended Amherst Col- lege (the Mount Pleasant Classical Institution) for two years, during which he earned, among higher honors, the nickname “Commodore” be- cause of his announced intention of serving in the navy. He left Amherst in 1833 for Washington College (now Trinity College) in Hartford, Con- necticut and upon his graduation two years later had decided instead to follow his father into the medical profession. During an additional year at Washington College, his choice altered again, to the Episcopal ministry, and this led to several years of study under the Reverend Samuel Jarvis in Middletown, Connecticut. He was ordained to the Episcopal ministry in 1840 at St. Andrew’s Church in Harlem where his father was a vestry- man. The young minister was appointed rector of that church. But long-smoldering doubts about his religious convictions led to his resignation a year later During that year he had had many conver- sations with his friend Father John McCloskey, who became president of Fordham College in 1841. Thirty-four years later, Bayley, as Archbishop of Baltimore, was to impose the red biretta on Arch- bishop McCloskey, the first American Cardinal. Sent to Rome in 1841 by his grandfather, in the hope that “seeing Catholicity there would disabuse him,” young Bayley not only developed a fondness for Rome (in later years he described it as “the most attractive city on the face of the earth”), but returned to America in November, Early Building, South Orange, 1861 1843, as a candidate for the Catholic priesthood. He had been received into the Church in Rome in April, 1842, and had completed a year s study at the Seminary of St. Sulpice, in Paris. On March 2, 1844, he was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Hughes in old St. Patricks Cathedral in Mott Street, New York City. His priestly career in New York contributed to his deep interest in education, for he served as vice-president and acting president of Fordham, and as secretary to the bishop. With the creation of the Newark Diocese in 1853, he was appointed its first bishop. The new bishop immediately laid his plans for a diocesan college, and set about raising the needed funds. With the permission of Archbishop Hughes he sent Father Michael Madden into New York City to collect money for the proposed school, though he had to note disappointedly: “My collections turned out very poorly in New York — about $600, including $150 from Mr. Edw. Tiers.” His appeal to the Society for the Propaga- tion of the Faith in France brought funds, only a small part of which could be set aside for Seton Hall. Catholics of his state lacked financial credit and no loans could be obtained through the banks. The bishop then offered to guarantee any money entrusted to him by his people and to “secure to them an equal if not better return than they could secure from other sources.” By the end of 1860 about 350 persons had come to his assistance, depositing fund's amounting to more than $26,000. The site at Madison, some twenty-five miles from Newark, was ideally healthful, and consisted of forty-eight acres of beautiful countryside. The bishop envisioned a college and a semi- nary, under the guidance of the diocesan clergy, and had written to Archbishop Hughes that “there are many persons, as you know, who . . . prefer a school under the charge of secular priests.” In his first president, the Reverend Bernard J. McQuaid, Bishop Bayley had chosen well. This was the untiring, outspoken Father McQuaid who, in his last years of life as Bishop of Rochester, New York, referred to his efforts for Bishop Bayley with the frank estimate: “They were as much as are ordinarily done by three priests.” Contemporaries of McQuaid would be inclined to up the number to six priests. He was born in New York City, but about the year 1825 his father had brought the family to Jersey City, in what was then known as Paulus Hook. Mass was offered in his father’s house in November, 1829, before a church was built in Jersey City for the Catholics who had been obliged to travel to New York for Sunday Mass. The events of his childhood may have influenced his own determined attitude as an adult. His father was killed by one John McCosker when Bernard was nine years of age, and life with his stepmother (his mother died at his birth) was cruel enough to remain in his memory forever. A kind woman brought him to the Prince Street Orphan Asylum in New York City and here he made his home with the Sisters of Charity — a personal association often renewed in later years. He studied at Chambly College, Canada, and at St. Joseph’s Seminary, Fordham. His health in his student days was poor, though he was destined to outlive all his classmates. That he should have been closely associated with Bishop Bayley in New Jersey providentially followed the events of his ordination. Just before ordination he suffered a hemorrhage of the lungs and the acting president of Fordham, then Father Bayley, saved his life. After the ordination, Janu- ary 16, 1848, it was Bayley as Bishop Hughes’ secretary who persuaded Hughes not to send the frail young priest to a city parish, but instead to Morris County in New Jersey, “where the air is pure, and where he will have plenty of outdoor exercise.” Under the presidency of Father McQuaid, with the Reverend Alfred Young (later a well-known Paulist Father) as vice-president, and two priest professors, the Reverend Lawrence Hoey and the Reverend Daniel Fisher, assisted by five lay teach- ers, Seton Hall began with five students on Sep- tember 1, 1856. Board and tuition were “$200 per annum.” Of the original five students, Leo G. Thebaud, Louis Boisaubin and Alfred Boisaubin came from Madi- son. Peter Meehan was from Hoboken, and John Moore from New York City. Before the month was finished, however, eleven other students had reg- istered, and by the following July the enrollment stood at forty-four. Rt. Rev. Bernard J. McQuaid First President of Seton Hall College Most Rev. James Roosevelt Bayley Founder of Seton Hall University The school observed the completion of its first scholastic year in June, 1857, with “the first com- mencement ... if it may be called by so dignified a name” — so noted Bishop Bayley. With the insti- tution well established the bishop felt free to remove McQuaid and bring him back to the Cathedral' in Newark. The professor of English, the Reverend Daniel Fisher, was appointed presi- dent. It would be two years before Father Mc- Quaid returned as president. Like Father McQuaid, Father Fisher had been a seminarian at Fordham when Father Bayley was its acting president. After ordination he had gone to Minnesota to do missionary work among the Indians. His health was impaired after three years of this labor and he returned east to serve in several parishes in New Jersey before his appointment to Seton Hall. During his two years as president at Madison he had as vice-president the Reverend William McNulty — the future Dean McNulty of Paterson. At the end of the school year in 1859, Father Fisher received permission from Bishop Bayley to go back to the Minnesota missions. He was destined to return to New Jersey in a few years, however, and to die in St. Mary’s Hospital, Ho- boken. Bishop Bayley wrote in his Diary, July 16, 1859: Have been obliged to re-appoint the Rev. Father McQuaid to the presidency of the college — he still retaining the pastorship of the Cathe- dral. It is more difficult to find a good college president than to find a good anything else in this world . All that the College needs to insure its permanent prosperity is a president. Every- thing else is there. With Father McQuaid’s new term as president, Seton Hall entered its first era of expansion, and this in spite of the president’s other duties as rector of the Cathedral and Vicar General of the diocese. The first change was the move from Madison to South Orange, New Jersey. Madison in the 1860’s was too far from the centers of population to play the role planned for it by Bishop Bayley, although its boarding facilities were overcrowded. The seminary depart- ment was too distant from the Cathedral for participation by the ecclesiastical students in episcopal ceremonies. In the spring of 1860, Bishop Bayley and Father McQuaid were riding toward Newark over the Orange Hills after a fruitless search for a suitable location. As they passed through the small hamlet of South Orange, the bishop noticed a large white marble villa set off by spacious grounds and lordly trees. “Do you think that property can be purchased?” he asked Father McQuaid. The Presi- dent acted promptly, and the purchase was arranged by April 2, 1860, through Michael Mc- Entee of Vailsburg, a close friend of Father McQuaid. The South Orange property covered sixty acres on both sides of South Orange Avenue, with the villa, a farmhouse, and stables. The Elphinstone brothers, who had built the villa at a cost of over $40,000 and then found life together far from congenial, sold the entire property for $35,000. The Seton Hall campus in Madison was sold to the newly founded New Jersey community of the Sisters of Charity for $25,000, and became the site of St. Elizabeth’s College and the mother- house for the Sisters of Charity. The financial picture for Setonia was brightened by the ready response of the faithful of the diocese in a col- lection made in all churches at the request of Bishop Bayley. It amounted to $8100. The first building erected on the South Orange campus, begun by Father McQuaid in April, was ready for college purposes when classes began in September, 1860. The villa was occupied by the seminary faculty and students. The original walls of the first college building, despite two fires, still form part of the walls of the rear portion of the old auditorium next to Alumni Hall. A modern student would find the routine of life at Seton Hall in the 1860’s somewhat rigorous. The academic year consisted of two sessions of five months each, beginning on the last Wednes- day of August and ending on the last Wednesday of June. The only vacations within this period were ten days at Christmas, and two days in May. The hour for all, students and faculty alike, to begin the day was four a. m. Each student was well clothed for the day’s classes and compulsory physical exercise, inasmuch as he had been requir- ed to bring upon entrance into the College, “four t'* After the Disastrous Fire of 1866 Summer suits, if he enter in the Spring; or three Winter suits, if he enter in the Fall.” The requi- site number of other garments were also listed in the catalogue, and parents were strongly urged to place their son’s spending money in the charge of the college treasurer, to be “given as prudence suggests.” The rules of discipline called for the expulsion of students who left the college grounds after night- fall, the use of tobacco was forbidden, and “no student of low and vicious habits will be retained in this College.” A typical McQuaid viewpoint was addressed to parents: Parents have a right to withdraw their chil- dren at any time; they have no right to interfere with established discipline of the College; they have not the right to keep us and our punctual students waiting for the laggards who want one more day of idleness. The course of studies was divided into the Classical, English, French, and Mathematical. A student could begin not only the four years of collegiate study, but a seven-year course— an indi- cation of the formal break made at a later date into a preparatory and a college department. Written and public oral examinations in all subjects were required. Languages offered, in addition to the many hours of Latin and Greek, were French, Spanish, and German. Music, drawing, and oil painting were optional. Student organizations in- cluded three literary societies — the Setonian Lit- erary Association, the Bayley Literary Society, the Reading Room Society — and one Setonia Scientific Society. Entertainment at concerts and commencements was provided by the Setonian brass band. The corporate seal adopted in May, 1864, has the image of Our Lady, Seat of Wisdom, with the motto Religioni ac Bonis Artibus taken from the seal of the Pontifical College of Propaganda, Rome. On the left of this image of Mary are the episcopal arms of Bishop Bayley and his motto: Per Fidem non per Speciem — “ Through Faith and Not through Appearance .” On the right of the image is the coat of arms of the Seton family with the expression: “Hazard zit Forward .” The mean- ing of “zit” is equivalently “yet” or “notwithstand- ing” — no matter what the hazard, yet forward. The sixth annual commencement, and the sec- ond held under the new charter at South Orange, in June, 1862, saw the grant of the first A. B. degree, to Louis Edward Frith. In 1906, the year of Setonia’s golden jubilee, Mr. Frith recalled his graduation day. The exercises were held out of doors (as were most Seton Hall graduations for seventy-five years), on a stage constructed in the grove east of the college building. The first degree- holder very nearly did not make it: a college prank of ringing the 4 a. m. rising bell at 2 a. m., started the college and nearby farmers on an extra long working day, brought a presidential threat (later canceled) that Frith’s graduation would be at least postponed. Father McQuaid wrote to Bishop Bayley, who was then in Europe, that “graduate Frith” with “indomitable pluck” spoke despite the rain which fell, and that there where present “between 40 and 50 priests, and very many respectable lay people.” He also informed Bishop Bayley that the en- rollment for September opening was filled, at seventy-five, and that he must refuse any further applications. At the commencement in 1863, one of the three men to receive bachelor degrees was John D. Kernan of Utica, New York, later a United States Senator from that state. He also received the gold medal in philosophy ex aequo with John V. Kernan of Newark for the best essay entitled “A Refutation of Nominalism and a Vindication of Realism.” The Civil War made no disturbing changes in the College, largely because of the solid founda- tions laid by President McQuaid. That worthy gentleman, however, was active off campus in such matters as addressing a “Union meeting” in front of the courthouse in Newark, April 22, 1861. Because he was so necessary to the diocese, Bishop Bayley did not permit him to accept a chaplaincy, sending instead the name of the Rever- end George H. Doane to Governor Olden for ap- pointment as chaplain to the New Jersey contin- gent. In 1864, however, Father McQuaid did absent himself from the College to make a visit to the scenes of battle and minister to the wounded and dying. Setonia’s sons served in the army and navy during the war, and after the conflict a series of “Grand Concerts, Vocal and Instrumental” were given by the undergraduates “in aid of the South- ern Relief Fund.” The next building added to the South Orange campus was the chapel of the Immaculate Con- ception, the cornerstone of which was blessed by Bishop Bayley in May, 1863, in the presence of Bishop (later Cardinal) McCloskey. Construc- tion on the chapel must have been quite rapid, for enough of the building was completed by December for Bishop Bayley to ordain James D’Arcy and Patrick Cody — the first of the many sons of Setonia to be signed to the holy priesthood in the beautiful sanctuary of her Gothic chapel. The chapel served also as the parish church for South Orange. About the time of the chapel erection, a large stone building was constructed just beyond its sanctuary for an infirmary and residence for the Sisters of Charity who cared for the domestic department of the College. In later years, with the addition of more buildings, the edifice built in the early 1860’s became a grammar school known to many as “Bayley Hall” — the predeces- sor of the building of the same name now on the campus. The Sisters of Charity have a special place in the heart of Setonia through their associ- ation which endures to the present day in their zealous care of infirmary and chapel. Ten acres of the campus were set aside for sports of all kinds, and the emphasis was on participation by all the students in teams organ- ized among themselves. “In a large gymnasium,” wrote Father McQuaid, “well-provided with the necessary apparatus, the students are drilled twice a week in calisthenics and gymnastics under an experienced professor.” It was through the outdoor sports that the only notice of Seton Hall’s coming to South Orange in 1860 was taken by the Newark Daily Advertiser. In a letter to the editor, an uni- dentified South Orange matron inquired ( Septem- ber, 1860) if the noise and disturbance from ball- playing on the grounds of “Seaton College” were a part of the Catholic religion. If they were, she offered the advice that the “e” be dropped from the first part of the name and an “s” be added at the end. We know that games were played outside clubs, though the information is meager, through Bishop Bayley’s Diary entry for June, 1865: “A baseball club from Jersey City came to play our College Club, which beat them famously. In January, 1866, at a time of expansion in student body and faculty, the first disastrous fire struck. In four hours flames reduced the marble villa to a smoking shell. Books, a few records, and some pieces of furniture were the only things saved from the holocaust. Bishop Bayley was told of the fire the following morning at Hoboken, and after receiving assurance that no lives were lost, he set out to see Father McQuaid who, he knew would be worried about his reaction. When the two met, Bishop Bayley asked: “Did they save my aunt’s (that is, Elizabeth Seton’s) blue armchair?” Father McQuaid was able to answer yes, and Bishop Bayley went on to say that it would have been impossible to replace the chair whereas they could put up a new building. With the combination of the Bishop’s calm optimism and Father McQuaid’s energetic efforts, a new building was ready for occupancy in Sep- tember, 1867. Insurance on the villa amounted to $19,000 and the churches of the diocese contrib- uted $10,000 in response to Bishop Bayley’s circular letter in February. A benefit concert held at Delmonico’s in New York, April, 1866, under the auspices of Madame Barril, wife of the Peru- vian minister, and Madame Brugiere, brought $2,000. President McQuaid’s own circular “to the patrons and friends of Seton Hall College” stated that the cost of the new building would be $50,000, and the reponse from recipients shows one gift of $2,000, two of $500, and over eight-five donations of amounts up to $250. Father McQuaid was emboldened by this re- sponse to wangle a bigger and better building. He first showed the Bishop drawings for a building of three stories, having cut from the drawing the further extensions of the wings. The Bishop criti- cized the appearance as too narrow for such height: the wings were restored, the drawing ap- proved, and President McQuaid got his original idea. The brownstone structure became the sem- inary building, and is today the University Ad- ministration Building. The academic year which began in September, 1867, with the use of the new building marked its close with the commencement held for the first time in the college chapel, June, 1868. It was Father McQuaid’s last commencement as presi- dent, for on July 12 he was to be consecrated Bishop of Rochester, New York, in St. Patrick’s Cathedral, New York City. It was he who deliver- ed the commencement address to the next group of graduates, in 1869; and he came back many times in later years to the place so close to his heart. During his terms as president, Seton Hall had made valuable contributions to the glory of God and the good of the country. The enrollment books indicated that 531 students had entered the school in its first dozen years, coming from seventeen states, the District of Columbia, Canada, nine Latin- American countries, France, Spain, and Italy. Among the states outside the metropolitan area, Missouri, with over thirty-five, had the great- est number of alumni. The first era was ended with the departure of Father McQuaid, and the atmosphere of his day was summed up by Setonia’s first Bachelor of Arts, Louis Frith, fifty years after his student days: This remarkable man had a wonderful influ- ence over the boys at College ... The holy and learned men with whom he surrounded himself, and who taught us, imparted the qual- ities which fit a man to live. Character was formed at Seton Hall because of the environ- ment. When, in June of 1868, Father Bernard J. McQuaid was consecrated first Bishop of Roches- ter, there was no doubt who his successor at Seton Hall would be. Young though he may have been, Father Michael Augustine Corrigan had amply demonstrated his zeal and leadership in the four short years since his return home from the semin- ary in Rome. A Newarker by birth, Seton Hall’s third presi- dent came from a large, pious and prosperous Irish family that gave two other sons to the priest- hood, a daughter to the sisterhood, and a fourth son to the medical profession. Michael, after com- pleting his early studies in Catholic colleges in Wilmington and Emmitsburg, revealed to his hap- py parents and to Bishop Bayley his calling to the priesthood. Recognizing his potentialities at once, the Bishop sent Father Corrigan to Rome to study at the North American College, just opening at that time. On his return to Newark in 1864, Father Cor- rigan was immediately assigned to Seton Hall, where he taught dogmatic theology and Scripture in the Seminary. A year later, when only twenty- six years of age, he was promoted to the offices of vice-president of the College and director of the Seminary. The firm friendship and close associa- tion of Father Corrigan with his superior, Father McQuaid, were to be lifelong — and were appro- priately symbolized by their consecration as fellow bishops. Father McQuaid received episcopal con- secration following his term of office, but Father Corrigan had the distinction of retaining the Most Rev. Michael A. Corrigan Third President of Seton Hall College school presidency after becoming a bishop. He had served as Vicar General of the diocese, and on two occasions as Administrator, before the Holy Father named him to succeed Bishop Bayley as second Bishop of Newark in 1872; and after- ward, Archbishop John McCloskey of New York, his consecrator, urged him to continue to head Seton Hall despite his newer burdens. He willingly did so for three more years, when the affairs of the rapidly expanding diocese forced him to turn over the office to his brother. Father James Henry Corrigan. When Father Michael Corrigan succeeded Bishop McQuaid in 1868, he took charge of a student body of 119 (in seven classes equivalent to prep school and college), seventeen seminar- ians, and a faculty of sixteen, only four of whom were priests. It is interesting to note that Seton Hall, though only thirteen years in existence, drew students from places as far distant as Mexico (12 students), Cuba, Brazil and Spain: oddly, only sixteen came from New Jersey at this time. The Seminary, with a faculty of five members, was directed by Father Corrigan’s younger brother, Father James. In 1870, Father Corrigan separated the college and the preparatory curricula, although the same faculty continued to teach both groups. The first Science Society was founded the same year, and in 1873 the Setonia Glee Club was organized. The college chapel of the Immaculate Concep- tion, begun under Bishop McQuaid, was com- pleted and dedicated on February 6, 1870. The ceremony was performed by the president in the absence of Bishop Bayley, then in Rome attending the Vatican Council. In the year 1871 there took place the first Junior Exhibition. This custom of “Junior Night,” held each year on the patronal feast of St. Joseph, was to become one of the staunchest of Setonian tra- ditions, only ceasing at the beginning of World War II. An interesting campus figure of these years was Robert Seton, grandson of Mother Elizabeth Seton, who lectured the students on sacred archeology. A fabulous character, Seton was the first American to bear the title of Monsignor, and ended his life a titular Archbishop. Sebastian Messmer, a Swiss immigrant priest who would later become Archbishop of Milwaukee, was also a faculty member under Father Michael Corrigan. In 1878, when Father James Henry Corrigan followed his bishop-brother as president of Seton Hall, a third member of this talented family, Father George Washington Corrigan, was also serving on the faculty, as professor of history. At this time, the director of the Seminary was the Reverend Wil- liam P. Salt. The first years of Father James’ administration were difficult ones because of the widespread busi- ness depression. The rate for board and tuition had to be lowered from $430 to $350. It remained at this figure till well into the present century. The year 1881 was the first great milestone in Seton Hall’s history: the observance of its twenty- fifth anniversary. A gala jubilee dinner, presided over by Bishop Corrigan, was held on July 14. The Alumni Association was formed in 1879 at the instigation of Father James Corrigan, and numbered 110 members at its inception. Dues were five dollars per annum; and beginning in 1881, annual reunion dinners were held in Pinard’s, in New York, at six dollars a plate. The new organization showed an active interest in the needs of Alma Mater, and in 1872 agreed to raise the $15,000 necessary to build Alumni Hall, which was being planned to serve as a gymnasium and social center. Under this administration many new student organizations came into existence. The Sodality of the Sacred Heart led the list; there were also the Bayley Debating Society, several library and reading-room associations, the Setonia Orchestra, and the Dramatic Company. For the first time organized athletics came on the scene with the formation of the Alert Baseball Team, and the Seton Lawn Tennis and Football Association. Just when the future of the institution looked brightest, disaster once more struck. On March 9, 1886, a second great fire broke out, destroying the college building “from roof to foundation.” The loss was estimated at $35,000, while the covering insurance amounted to only $18,000. Strangely enough, the faculty and students were the last to become aware of the blaze, which broke out during the noonday dinner hour. The driver of the South Orange Avenue horsecar was the first to notice smoke issuing from the class- room and dormitory building. He reasoned that time would be saved by rushing into the village and giving the alarm there rather than by notifying the college authorities, and as a result the fire department reached the scene before the students had left their tables. However, the fire could not be checked. This crushing blow, coupled with the ill health that plagued him for some years, led Father James Corrigan to resign the presidency in 1888. He did not leave, however, till the college building had been completely rebuilt and put into use again. He died in 1891, having served for more than two years of this interval as pastor of St. Marys parish, Elizabeth. The twenty-year period of the two Corrigan administrators can best be viewed as a unified whole. They cannot be described as years of quantitative advancement. The enrollment was only 83 on the eve of the fire of 1886, with a faculty of 13 members, and a Seminary of 18 students. Furthermore, the anxious efforts of these administrators to provide unexcelled educational facilities for seminarians and collegians forced the institution deeply into debt. At one time, in fact, in the early years of Father Michael Corrigan s presidency, Bishop Bayley even feared he might have to close the institution. It was due to the personal generosity of the three Corrigan brothers, who were willing to contribute from their paternal inheritance, that sufficient capital was acquired to carry the College through the lean years. The outstanding gift of the two Corrigans was qualitative; it is especially noticeable in the great incentive given to the organization by students of extracurricular activities in every field, spiritual, intellectual and athletic, and likewise to the for- mation of a loyal and active alumni. Devoted and dedicated interest in Alma Mater, on the part of both students and alumni, is the tradition of the Seton Hall of 1956; the roots of this tradition were planted in the years 1868-88. In 1881, Seton Hall had entered its second quarter-century of existence under the presidency of the Reverend James Corrigan. The pioneer days of the College had drawn to a close. The first twenty-five years had witnessed a building pro- gram, the establishment of a learned faculty, and the slow yet continual rise in student enrollment. On this firm foundation, the work of expansion was now about to begin. The ideals of Bishop Bayley and Father McQuaid, whereby Seton Hall would exert its influence among laity as well as clergy, were being steadily realized. The disastrous fire of 1886, though a serious obstacle to the achievement of the College’s objectives, was to prove in the event a temporary one. The Reverend William F. Marshall, fifth presi- dent of Seton Hall, who occupied this position from 1888 to 1897, was a prominent driving force behind the expansion program of the College during this second quarter-century. Father Mar- shall had the distinction of being one of the first priests ordained (February 4, 1881) in the new St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City. ^ Assigned to the faculty of Seton Hall College, Father Marshall taught in the collegiate depart- ment and then later assumed the administrative duties of treasurer for the institution. He manifest- ed exact business acumen in meeting the financial obligations of Seton Hall, especially in the months which followed the fire of 1886. When he accepted the office of president. Father Marshall undertook a responsibility for which he was well equipped. From his experience he could well understand both the possibilities and the limitations by which to direct his actions. The faculty under Father Marshall’s adminis- tration was increased in size and effectiveness by the addition of noted scholars, both American and European. They brought a wealth of learning and a maturity of approach to their classroom lectures. Furthermore, their scholastic reputation, acknowledged without question in academic cir- cles, brought reflected glory on the school to which they came. With their help and under their direction, Seton Hall began its program of extra- curricular activities both on a literary and on a social plane. This era witnessed the formation of college clubs dedicated to debating, literary pro- duction, and discussion of the problems of the day. Not to be overlooked was the establishment of courses in military instruction at Seton Hall Col- lege in August, 1893. The modern age witnesses a large ROTC program currently under way at the University. The forerunner of the present ambitious program can be found in that appoint- ment of a regular army instructor by the United States Government to the faculty of Seton Hall College for the purpose of preparing her students for effective military service if the necessity should ever arise. This move must have been unusual for the time because it stirred up a certain amount of controversy, as contemporary newspapers prove. Seton Hall was a private institution, not a land-grant college. Furthermore, it was under Church auspices, and this latter fact gave rise to certain bitter criticisms in anti-Catholic circles which professed to see a union between Church and State contained in such a favor bestowed by the Government on the College. Such bias and criticism did not hamper the effectiveness of the newly established military program at Seton Hall. Courses in military science and tactics, and parade drills and bivouacs soon produced a corps of military-minded students, many of whom were to serve most patriotically and effectively in the Spanish-American War a few years later. The greatest achievement of this second quarter- century was the reduction of the debt by which the College was burdened. The building programs of 1866 and 1886, both necessitated by destructive fires, had produced a sizable financial load for the College to carry, particularly in view of the fact that the prime source of revenue was to be found in the tuition of the students. Naturally with a small student body the expected revenue from this source was barely enough to cope with cur- rent expenses, let alone to meet the payment of outstanding bank notes. The marked financial ability of the president now showed itself. A program of economy, and a continuing campaign of appeals to friends of the College who might be interested in preserving her educational effectiveness, brought sufficient amounts of money into the treasury to meet some of the long-standing debts. It was not an easy task, and the labor involved began to take its toll of Father Marshall. Finally, although still a young man, with sixteen years in the holy priesthood and nine in the presidency behind him, he was forced to resign his office for reasons of health. This was in June of 1897. Although his tenure was brief when placed alongside the entire history of Seton Hall, later historians would be among the first to admit that his presidency constituted a forward step in the progress of the institution. He brought a vision of the future to his office, and he laid the founda- tions for a wider and more effective use of the College’s resources under succeeding administra- tions. His youthful vigor and energy, so quickly expended on behalf of Seton Hall, furnished the necessary catalytic force whereby the plans of the past became the realities of the future and the discouragements of yesterday were quickly for- gotten in the dream of tomorrow. The name of Father Marshall lives on in the an- nals of Seton Hall in the name of its library build- ing. Students of 1955-56, engaged in study and other collegiate activities, are the beneficiaries of his wise planning and many of their extracurricular activities stem from the time of his administration. From the establishment of Seton Hall at Madi- son in 1865, classes on the secondary level of learning had been conducted in facilities adjacent to the college proper. It was not unusual for a student to complete both his secondary and col- legiate studies under the auspices of the Seton Hall faculty. Such an arrangement was not pecul- iar to Seton Hall alone but might be found in a multitude of other institutions of higher learning which had begun with limited resources and usually under church auspices. The Reverend Joseph J. Synnott, D. D., sixth president of Seton Hall, completely reorganized the high school department in 1897. He gave the secondary-level courses a distinct autonomy, and made the necessary adjustments to satisfy the regulations of both the New Jersey and the New York State Departments of Education. From these beginnings arose the present Seton Hall Prepara- tory School with its high enrollment of students and its unqualified success in the preparation of young men for college studies and advantageous careers in the business and professional worlds. Coincidently with the establishment of the Pre- paratory School on a separate basis was the process of securing recognition for the degrees granted by Seton Hall College in the adjacent states of Rhode Island and New York as well as in the native state of New Jersey. The twentieth century would be an age in which educational supervisors would become more and more conscious of the necessity of proper accrediting programs. Seton Hall thus began its own adaptation to the changed educational standards whereby it is regulated at the present hour. The presidency of Father Synnott was very brief. His untimely death in March, 1899, brought to a close his presidential labors after only two years of service. In a sense he had been a co-laborer with Father Marshall in the preparation lor the greater Seton Hall of the twentieth century. In general, it might be stated that the second quarter of existence for Seton Hall was truly a period of planning and gradual expansion, in contradistinction to the building years which pre- ceded this era. The turn of the century witnessed a world changing in social habits, business enterprise, and professional needs. The small College on the South Orange campus would soon be called upon to assist in meeting these urgent requirements of the day. Quietly it was preparing for the twentieth century and all the progress that the new age would bring. In May of 1899 Monsignor John A. Stafford was appointed as the seventh president of Seton Hall to fill the vacancy created by the sudden death of Dr. Synnott. His term of office lasted until 1907, and those eight years were years of transition which witnessed the end of the nineteenth century and the golden anniversary of Setonia’s beginning. When Monsignor Stafford became president, the episcopal residence of Bishop Winand Wigger was in the old seminary building on the campus. Shortly, after the death of Bishop Wigger in 1901, the Kelly estate that adjoined the east end of the Seton Hall property was purchased and Bishop O’Connor took up residence there on the far end of the campus. The original Kelly house still re- mains as the residence of the chief shepherds of the Archdiocese of Newark. The close association of the Bishops of Newark with Seton Hall was fittingly memorialized in 1904 with the publication of Joseph Flynn’s The Catho- lic Church in New Jersey. The cover of this stand- ard history bears the episcopal seals of the first four Bishops of the Newark diocese, “all grouped around the seal of Seton Hall, . . . the one institu- tion upon which all have lavished their tenderest care and solitude.” Many aspects of the temper of college life at the turn of the century can be gauged from the contemporary catalogues. Thus it was declared that, “although Seton Hall is established primarily as a boarding school, day scholars, so far as they can be accommodated, will not be rejected.” The entire College went to school on Saturday, and Thursday was substituted as a holiday — an arrangement which survived as late as 1934. On Thursday and Sunday the students were per- mitted to “take walks in the surrounding country, in small bands and accompanied by a prefect.” A Graduating Class of 1895 fair share of the surrounding country was then owned by Seton Hall since its campus spread to the farmland on the far side of South Orange Avenue, where the cattle supplied the dairy needs of the college. An old copybook containing notices sent to the professors, and written in Monsignor Stafford’s own hand, has been preserved. It gives many interest- ing insights into the perennial and peculiar prob- lems of a college president. Thus, in 1902, he requested the professors to inspect the books of the students to see that no translations were writ- ten in the margins. Another entry set the dates for the monthly announcements of the marks which was made by the president before the assembled College. This tradition lasted well into the twenties. Both students and professors were frequently reminded of silence which forbade any talking in class corridors. Despite the severities of college discipline, a warm family spirit pervaded the insti- tution under Monsignor Stafford. The simplicity of a former age can be sensed in a small news item of the old South Orange Bulltein, which end- ed its account of a Christmas party of students and faculty in Alumni Hall by reporting that “Monsignor Stafford sang ‘Noel’ in excellent voice and responded to an encore giving ‘An Old Christ- mas Dinner.’ Early in 1906, plans were formulated to cele- brate the golden anniversary of Seton Hall’s foundation. In their March meeting, the alumni of Seton Hall voted a sum of money to redecorate the chapel in honor of the important milestone. At the same meeting, the possibility of publishing a diocesan newspaper was also discussed. As a result of the gift of the alumni, a new Sacred Heart altar was constructed as well as the covered arch between the chapel and the seminary build- ing. A portion of the fund was also employed to improve athletic facilities. On June 13, 1906, the fiftieth anniversary cele- bration was climaxed with the commencement exercises held in the old Newark Theatre. A con- temporary account noted that this was the first Seton Hall graduation to be held indoors. Over 1200 people were in attendance, and Bishop McQuaid of Rochester, the first president of Seton Hall, delivered the main address. He reminded the graduates that the purpose for which Seton Hall had been founded was the Catholic education of the entire man, “whose character was informed by an enlightened conscience.’’ The venerable Bishop brought the commencement to a fitting close, as he had almost a half-century before, by invoking the blessing of God upon all. The celebration terminated with a baseball game between Seton Hall and Manhattan College. An unusual picture appearing in the Newark press showed in attendance at the game Bishops Mc- Quaid, O’Connor and McFaul, all wearing frock coats and high silk hats. Shortly after the anniversary, Monsignor Staf- ford asked to be relieved of the presidency because of poor health, and his resignation was accepted by the Board of Trustees in January of 1907. In that same year Bishop O’Connor appointed him to the pastorate of St. Patrick’s Church in Jersey City. Later in the year Monsignor James F. Mooney was selected as the eight president. He served until 1922 — the longest term in the history of the college. Not long after the new appointment, tragedy struck Seton Hall again, with the third disastrous fire in fifty years. Early in the morning of March 28, 1909, the flames were found raging through the old college classroom and dormitory building. Students and professors joined the local fire units and succeeded in checking the spread of the fire to the main library. A hand-to-hand brigade of students moved all the books and piled them ceiling-high in the main lobby and halls of the Adminstration Building. In the next year and a half, classrooms and living quarters were impro- vised in the existing buildings. Ground was broken for a new college building in the spring of 1909, and it was formally opened in September of 1910. Mooney Hall, originally the college building, now houses the Prep School. Over the ruins of the older building was raised an auditorium, which served for student shows and athletic contests until the new auditorium-gym- nasium was completed inl940. The present Bayley Hall was erected in 1913 and housed the Grammar School until 1926. Fire was not the only crisis that Seton Hall faced in these years, for she also weathered the economic effects of the period during and follow- ing the First World War. It was a great tribute to the leadership of Monsignor Mooney that Seton Cadet Officers, 1896 Hall was able to maintain its services at a time when other institutions closed down. Among the many famed professors who taught under Monsignor Mooney, no faculty could match that of 1916 for illustrious members who would be leaders in the Church in future years. On the staff in that year were three future bishops and three future vicars general. They were: the Rever- end John A. Duffy, later Bishop of Buffalo; the Reverend Thomas McLaughlin, later Bishop of Paterson; the Reverend William A. Griffin, later Bishop of Trenton; the Reverend John C. McClary, later Vicar General of Newark; the Reverend John Dauenhauer and the Reverend John Sheerin, later Vicars General of Paterson. Three other members of the American hierarchy graduated during the presidency of Monsignor Mooney: Bishop Francis Monahan of Ogdensburg, Archbishop Thomas Bo- land of Newark, and Bishop James McNulty of Paterson. Throughout the terms of Monsignor Stafford and Mooney, the Seton Hall curriculum was exclu- sively in Liberal Arts, with a heavy stress on the classics, history, English, mathematics, philosophy and religion. After 1910 the growing importance of socialism was reflected in a mandatory course tracing its nature and history. A greater stress was placed on the physical sciences during the first quarter of the past century. An awareness of its importance is seen in the perennial notation of a science building in the catalogue’s list of “the needs of the college.” The extracurricular side of college life was very active during this period. Various literary and debating clubs were influential on the campus, and most of the topics discussed were equally divided between classic and contemporary topics. A typical program on commencement day listed a range that included “medieval architecture’ and “the growth of the union movement.” Organized intercollegiate competition brought Seton Hall fame in both football and basketball. In the days before the “Pirates,” the Setonians were called the “Alerts,” and the College’s most successful sport was baseball. A thiry-game sched- ule on the diamond was not uncommon and she more than held her own against such rugged foes as Princeton, Army, Fordham, Georgetown, Holy Cross, Dartmouth, Stanford and Notre Dame. Setonia also played the Carlisle Indians in the era of Jim Thorpe, and took part in exhibition games with the professional teams of Newark and Jersey City. Although new buildings and the ravages of fire brought many changes to Seton Hall during these years, there was a striking continuity in many aspects of campus life. In 1922, as in 1899, students still went to class on Saturdays, walked in bands on Thursday hikes, and obtained their spending money from the treasurer; and the president still read the marks publicly each month. The average graduating class during these years numbered about fourteen, and a student in 1922 paid only five dollats more for tuition than in 1899. The debt incurred through new buildings, and the economic depression of the post-World-War-I years, necessitated a great physical change in Seton Hall in 1922. By June of that year Monsignor Mooney had sold all the land on the north side of South Orange Avenue. That sale saw the end of the long-familiar farm which, since 1860, had furnished Seton Hall with much of its farm and dairy products. In the same year, 1922, Monsignor Mooney left Seton Hall to accept the pastorate of St. Joseph’s in Jersey City. The 1920’s have been variously described as the “Golden Twenties” and the “Era of Wonder- ful Nonsense.” Undoubtedly the Prohibition-Pros- perity years were among the most colorful in the national annals; they were, however, times of solid achievement, especially on the educational front. At Seton Hall the Reverend Thomas H. McLaughlin, ninth president of the College ( 1922 33), saw to it that there was no nonsense; many common-sense accomplishments highlighted his administration. Born in New York, he received his early educa- tion in the Montclair schools. After graduating from St. Francis Xavier’s College he was enrolled at the Imperial University at Innsbruck, Austria, to pursue ecclesiastical studies. There he was or- dained to the priesthood in 1904, and four years later the Imperial University awarded him the degree of Doctor of Sacred Theology. Thereupon he returned to the diocese of Newark and embark- ed upon a long and active career at Seton Hall. In 1923 he was elevated by Pope Pius XI to the domestic prelacy with the rank of Right Reverend Monsignor. Seton Hall grew modestly but steadily during Monsignor McLaughlin’s administration. More boys were attending college throughout the nation, and in 1923, in the midst of “Harding-Coolidge Prosperity,” the Board of Trustees at Seton Hall remarked on “the highly prosperous condition of the College.” In accord with newer educational trends, the 1923 catalogue employed the phrase “departments of study” in its prospectus of the academic program, listing the following depart- ments: Christian evidences, philosophy, English, Latin, Greek, history, mathematics, science, social science, music, physical instruction, and education. Under the latter heading, courses in teacher training were included for the first time, and in 1924 the New Jersey State Board of Education approved these courses. In 1926, following the introduction of pre-medi- cal work, the College restated its academic pro- gram. Three curricula were now presented: Clas- sical, Scientific, and Pre-Medical. Of these, the Classical or Arts Course was especially recom- mended “as providing the best training for any special scientific, professional or literary work that may be subsequently undertaken.” 1926 was truly an Annus Mirabilis for Seton Hall. Until that year, despite increasing statistical evidence to the contrary, many Catholic laymen mistakenly believed that the College was chiefly, if not entirely, a preparatory Seminary established to prepare the future priests of the diocese. Like his predecessors, Monsignor McLaughlin was simultaneously president of the College and rector of the Immaculate Conception Seminary, then located at South Orange. Now, however, the presi- dent introduced plans for the removal of the Seminary to a new site, thus emphasizing the autonomy of the two institutions. In 1927, the seminary students assumed their duties at Dar- lington, and Seton Hall College proper could begin to take its place as one of the East’s leading institutions for the education of future Catholic lay leaders. When the Most Reverend Thomas J. Walsh became Bishop of Newark in 1928, Seton Hall came under the influence of a churchman inter- ested in further improving the College’s academic status by attaining the recognition of all proper accrediting agencies. Monsignor McLaughlin ac- tively directed efforts toward this end, and pre- liminary steps for the complete accreditation of Seton Hall were launched in 1930 and 1931. In accord with recommendations by the Middle States Association, the president urged several improvements, and in November of 1932 that Association granted complete accreditation to Seton Hall. 1933 may have sounded the depths of the depression, but it was another high spot in Seton Hall’s history, for in that turbulent year the College became a member of the Association of American Colleges and the American Council on Education. In 1933 the faculty consisted of eighteen clergy and seven laymen, and fully qualified heads of departments were obtained. Obviously the ad- ministration of Monsignor McLaughlin had been phenomenally successful, and particularly so from 1930 to 1933. No brief summary can do him justice, and it occasions no surprise that his health suffered from his dual post, which now neces- sitated frequent and taxing trips between South Orange and Darlington. He therefore decided to relinquish the presi- dency of the College, and in 1933 the Board of Trustees elected “to accept, though with deep regret, Monsignor McLaughlin’s resignation.” In a last act as president, he proposed to effect the complete separation of the College administration from that of the Seminary, and the Board of Trustees concurred. Americans are fascinated by statistics, and the government, the sporting fraternity, and even our educational authorities exploit this interest. For those so minded, figures reveal the growth of Seton Hall during Monsignor McLaughlin’s presidency. The student body tripled in size: in 1922, seven graduates received the baccalaureate; in 1933, sixty-two. In 1931, seventy seniors grad- uated, the highest figure until 1938. Growth there was indeed of a sound, well-proportioned, and modest sort. In another vein, extensive improve- ments were effected in the college buildings. New laboratory and gymnasium equipment was in- stalled, and new furniture and equipment were added to the auditorium. The interior of the Ad- ministration Building was repaired and repainted. A new organ was installed in the chapel and the building itself was improved. Collegiate life at South Orange reflected the national trend to increase emphasis on student extracurricular activities. Student publications first appeared at Seton Hall in 1924, when The Setonian was launched as a monthly and the White and Blue as a yearbook. In the first issue, The Setonian announced its intention to “represent current student life at Seton Hall, foster school spirit, and act as a bond between the alumni and the College. Like that of The Setonian, the first issue of the White and Blue was dedicated to Bishop O Connor, but the chief aim of the annual was to present a memorial to the graduating class.” Seton Hall had an established athletic program, and baseball and basketball were especially popu- lar on the campus. The College enjoyed a better than .600 record in intercollegiate competition on both court and diamond. It must be confessed, however, that the vagaries of the home “court” (in the form of structural poles running from floor to ceiling) inmparted a certain uniqueness to the South Orange version of Dr. Naismith’s prodigy. Ben Geraghty was a court luminary, and Eddie Madjeski later enjoyed some major-league experience. In 1926, track became a recognized sport at the College, when the Alumni Association and the Athletic Association pledged a sum to stimulate all sports. In 1931, Seton Hall College prepared to cele- brate its Diamond Jubilee Year. Truly these were critical times. The specious material prosperity of America crumbled, and the whole Western world became enshrouded in an all too deep- seated depression. In Europe it was the seedtime of Hitlerism, and Red vultures hovered close to the seats of power in many places. Even in our fortunate country, poverty reared its ugly head around every corner that prosperity was supposed to turn. Nevertheless, those close to Seton Hall rightly felt that their Alma Mater was justified in celebrating three-quarters of a century of progress. On May 11, the Alumni Association observed the jubilee at its annual dinner in the Newark Athletic Club. Bishops Walsh and McLaughlin spoke in honor of the occasion, and especially commended the contributions made by the Alumni Association to Seton Hall. Plans were also launch- ed for a general alumni reunion in June. The an- nual Alumni Association celebration, or homecom- ing day, took place on the afternoon and evening of June 3, the College acting as host for the oc- casion. During the afternoon, sports events were witnessed, and “Auld Lang Syne” was the key- note as old memories were recalled and friend- ships renewed. Dinner followed, and the annual business meeting of the alumni was held in a truly congenial atmosphere. On June 4 the college quadrangle was trans- formed into an open-air chapel, its altar resting on the porch of the now venerable Alumni Hall. A large sanctuary in the form of a platform was erected; on it were set two beautifully draped thrones, one for His Excellency Bishop Walsh, who celebrated the Pontifical Mass, and the other for His Eminence Patrick Cardinal Hayes, then Archbishop of New York. The music of the Mass was sung by the seminarians’ choir of the Im- maculate Conception Seminary at Darlington. In May of 1933, four months after Hitler in- augurated his reign of terror, and two months after the launching of the New Deal, the Reverend Francis J. Monaghan was appointed the tenth president of Seton Hall. The new president was bom in Newark in 1890, the son of Thomas and Anna Monaghan. Having received the A. B. and A. M. degrees from Seton Hall, he entered the American College in Rome, Italy, for ecclesiastical study, following which he received the degree of Doctor of Sacred Theology from the University of the Propagation of the Faith. Ordained to the priesthood in Rome in 1915, he returned to engage in pastoral work in the diocese of Newark until 1926, when he was appointed to the faculty of Seton Hall College. The following year he was assigned to the Seminary as professor of theology, in which post he was serving at the time of his appointment to the presidency of the College. It should also be mentioned that Seton Hall’s intercollegiate athletics activities in baseball and basketball attained much success. Since recogni- tion as a varsity sport in 1926, track had also progressed very rapidly. Several Setonians were selected as members of various United States Olympic teams. For a brief period of two years football was revived as a varsity sport; but in 1937 Seton Hall foreshadowed a later trend in many colleges by shelving intercollegiate football in favor of a more extensive program of intra- mural sports. Extracurricular activities of a less strenuous nature also received an additional stimulus after 1933. Illustrated lectures in industrial chemistry were held under the auspices of the Chemistry Club, and the Art Club conducted excursions to the Metropolitan Museum. Three public appear- ances were made by the Dramatic Society, and such events were listed as examples of the “abun- dance of extracurricular activity” during 1934. During this year, Dr. Monaghan was raised to the rank of Monsignor, and the tenor of his report to the Board of Trustees indicated his interest in and support of all phases of extracurricular activity in the College. The desirability and practicability of a new gymnasium were brought to the attention of the Board of Trustees in 1935. Monsignor Monaghan stressed the expansion of the department of phys- ical education and the intramural athletic pro- gram, as well as the increased intercollegiate activity in basketball and track and described the construction of a gymnasium as “sorely needed.” With the approval of Bishop Walsh, the Board voted to proceed with the proposed building. Plans were changed, however, when the Bishop requested a deferment until the erection of a new seminary at Darlington, and the construction of the gymnasium was not begun until 1939. Monsignor Monaghan’s tenure as Seton Hall’s president was terminated when he was named Coadjutor Bishop of the diocese of Ogdensburg, New York, in April, 1936. It is of interest to note that when Bishop Monaghan was consecrated in his new office by Bishop Walsh, the latter was assisted by Bishop McLaughlin, who in 1935 had been elevated to the position of the Auxiliary Bishop of Newark. Monsignor Monaghan was thus the fourth of Seton Hall’s presidents to be so honored. Bishop Walsh and the Board of Trustees paid “a warm tribute to Bishop Monaghan’s ability and achievements as president of Seton Hall College,” and a special program honoring the new bishop was held in conjunction with the annual com- mencement exercises of the College. By 1936 Seton Hall College was fully accredited by the Middle States Association and the elevation of Bishop McLaughlin and Bishop Monaghan to episcopal dignity constituted a fitting tribute to them and their contributions to Seton Hall. At a special meeting held July 10, 1936 the Board of Trustees confirmed the appointment of the Reverend James F. Kelley, Ph. D., as the eleventh president of Seton Hall College. James Francis Kelley was born in Kearney, New Jersey, July 27, 1902. He received his ele- mentary education in that town and entered Seton Hall Preparatory School in 1916. After completing his high school education, he matriculated at Seton Hall, graduating with the degree of Bachelor of Arts in 1924. He began his ecclesiastical study in the Immaculate Conception Seminary then located in South Orange, and after completing one year of study he went for the remainder of his seminary education to the University of Louvain, Belgium, were he was ordained to the priesthood on July 8, 1928. Returning to the United States in September of the same year, Father Kelley was assigned to the faculty of Seton Hall and served for four years as a professor of French, religion and Latin. In accordance with a farsighted plan of the Most Reverend Thomas J. Walsh, Bishop of Newark, Father Kelley was sent to pursue graduate studies at the University of Louvain in 1932. He received his Licentiate of Philosophy and earned his Doc- torate of Philosophy in 1935, returning to the United States that year. Back at Seton Hall, he resumed his position on the faculty as head of the department of philosophy, in which capacity he was serving at the time of his appointment as the eleventh president of the College. At the age of thirty-three, Doctor Kelley was one of the youngest college presidents in the United States. During Doctor Kelley’s term as president, Seton Hall College experienced a new era of expansion. With the opening of the eighty-first scholastic year in September, 1936, the president announced the addition of courses in the social science, natural science and English departments. Included in the expansion were courses in accounting, finance, international trade, business law, and statistics. The new courses in the natural sciences were aimed at broadening and improving the prepara- tion of pre-medical and pre-dental students. Courses in journalism and creative writing were added to the English department. Following the rapid growth of academic offer- ings in 1937, an increased extracurricular athletic and social program was initiated. Prominent among the new student organizations were the Brownson Club, the Press Club, the Chess Club, the Pre-medical Seminar, and Le Cercle Francais. During the years 1937 and 1938, the buildings on the campus were extensively repaired and reno- vated. Perhaps one of the most significant features of Seton Hall’s program of expansion during this period was its entrance into the field of extension education. The step broke tradition in that it opened the enrollment to women students. Miss Mary C. Powers, of Jersey City became the first woman faculty member. Classes were inaugurated in Feb- ruary, 1937, in St. Patrick’s Cathedral School in Newark with 321 students registered for the 37 course offerings. Both graduate and undergraduate courses were presented leading A. B., B. S., and A. M. degrees. This new Extension Division was conducted under the provisions of Seton Hall’s original char- ter of 1861. The first dean of Extension was the Reverend P. Francis Guterl, S. T. D., who had served on the Seton Hall faculty as a professor of philosophy since his ordination in 1924. The ap- pointment of a dean off-campus was the first sign of the eventual reorganization of administrative offices which would occur during the next decade. Seton Hall’s Extension Division subsequently adopted the name Urban Division. This new divi- sion of the College owed its inception to the enter- prise of Dr. Kelley and the enthusiastic support of Bishop Walsh. In the fall of 1937, further expan- sion was accomplished in the establishment of another of Seton Hall’s off-campus centers, the The Varsity Football Squad in 1902 Cadet Officers, 1898 Urban Division in Jersey City. The same year also saw Seton Hall’s first summer school conducted on the South Orange campus. Both graduate and undergraduate courses were offered at this summer session which marked the first time that women were admitted to the faculty and student body on the campus. One of the most significant developments in the Urban Division was the establishment of hospital affiliations in connection with the nursing-educa- tion curriculum. This program was organized to provide educational opportunities for the gradu- ate nurse and to raise the standards of the profes- sion. The nursing education program was the first established in the state of New Jersey, and its first director was Miss Anne Murphy, now in charge of the nursing program at the Jersey City Medical Center. The second director, who became the first dean of the School of Nursing when it was established as a separate entity in 1951, was Caroline di Donato Schwartz. Under the latter’s direction, studies of the pattern which modern nursing education was following, led to a strongly organized unit in the University’s network of schools. At the close of the initial three-year period, a report from the dean of the Urban Division stated that a marked increase in the number of matriculated students had taken place, and indi- cated that the student body of the Seton Hall Urban Division might, in general, be divided into three classifications, namely candidates for bache- lors’ degrees, including nursing education; candi- dates for masters’ degrees; and special students. The year 1940 started a new era in Seton Hall’s institutional life when a new building, the audi- torium-gymnasium, was added to the orginal nu- cleus in South Orange. Situated at the rear of the campus, it measured 225 feet by 154 feet, and contained the latest of athletic and recreational features. Included in its extensive interior were a basketball court capable of accommodating 3400 fans for intercollegiate contests; a swimming pool; a little theatre; handball and squash courts; bowl- ing alleys; billiard rooms; rifle ranges, and many other facilities for a well-rounded athletic and social program. With the completion of the auditorium-gym- nasium, Seton Hall’s athletic teams rose to national and international fame in the field of basketball, track, swimming, soccer and baseball. The basket- ball team under Coach John “Honey” Russell established a new intercollegiate mark during the 1952-53 season, winning twenty-seven consecutive games and climaxing the campaign by annexing the National Invitation Tournament champion- ship in Madison Square Garden. Russell was named “Coach of the Year” for his feat in guiding the Pirates to their mark, and Walter Dukes and Richie Regan were selected for All-American berths. The track team under the mentorship of John Gibson also had its share of glory. Intercollegiate championships were taken by the famous Seton Hall relay teams, and individual titles were gar- nered by Andy Stanfield and Frank Fox. Stanfield went on to even greater glory by winning a first- place medal for the United States in the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki, Finland. The baseball nine under Coach Owen Carroll has consistently piled up winning seasons, and during the 1954 campaign second baseman Wil- liam Nolan was elected to the first All-American team. Soccer also contributed an All-American in William Sheppell, who won that distinction in 1949. The 1951 swimming team brought additional honor to Seton Hall by winning the Eastern Col- legiate championship over nineteen competing schools. Among the groups which found the gymnasium as an ideal meeting place were two service organi- zations that have aided Seton Hall well during the past two decades, the Bayley Seton League and the Seton Hall Junior League. Both are women’s clubs with membership drawn from alumnae, rela- tives of alumni and alumnae, and interested laity of the area. Their cultural, charitable and religious good works have been meritorious since their foundation. The next phase in the physical expansion pro- gram was to provide a new library era. This was accomplished within a year by the conversion of the former gymnasium into a modern reading and reference library. Two classrooms were provided adjacent to the library and plans to increase the scientific facilities were formulated. Meanwhile the College continued to enjoy the trend of marked student growth. It is interesting to note here the accelerated rate of student in- crease on the campus. In 1940, 581 students were attending classes in South Orange and 1336 were studying in Newark and Jersey City. During the academic year 1941-42, Seton Hall College reached the peak of its student growth up to that period. All departments of the College showed record enrollment. Registration figures revealed 704 stu- dents on the campus and 1555 in the Urban Divi- sion. Ten years earlier, a quarter of that figure would have been considered phenomenal. The entry of the United States into World War II on December 8, 1941, presented a new chal- lenge to the College at a period when it had reached the height of its expansion. Having al- ready experienced and survived three previous wars without disruption of its institutional exist- ence, Seton Hall, in common with other schools of higher education, faced 1942 with an air of uncertainty as to the demands to be required of it by a nation at war. During the first year of hostilities, 166 students withdrew from the campus at South Orange to enter either the armed forces or an industry converted to war. At the same time, 400 students withdrew from the Urban Division. While the College was adapting itself to war- time conditions, the department of education of- fered courses in administration, supervision and guidance to augment the graduate program and lead to the Masters’ degree. In addition, the Na- tional Organizations of Public Health Nursing gave official approval to Seton Hall’s public health nursing curriculum. At the same time, the New Jersey Department of Public Instruction and the Certified Public Accountant’s Board approved the business administration and accounting curricu- lum. With these accreditations the College began its eighty-seventh academic year on September 21, 1942, sharing an air of uncertainty with many similar institutions, but seeking to preserve its own record of uninterrupted continuity. In spite of the demands of war and a rapidly decreasing student enrollment, the year was begun with a substantial student body. By February, 1943, however, this was cut to half its strength. The figures speak for themselves. The war took its toll of members of the student body who, in past years, walked the shaded paths between Bayley Hall and South Orange Avenue. The files in the president’s office indicate that many students from the college and high school classrooms made the supreme sacrifice. The College was a very quiet place between the years 1942 and 1945. The few individuals who comprised the student body were but transients, awaiting the call to military service. The cessation of hostilities in 1945 presented the College with a challenge she felt confident she was prepared to meet, and embarked Seton Hall on the greatest era of expansion and service to the country in her history; an era which is continuing as you read these lines. Yes, peace brought to Seton Hall an educational challenge. The demand for higher learning from the returning veterans occasioned a crisis that called for immediate expansion of the faculty and physical facilities. During the first year following the close of World War II, 94 percent of the one thousand students enrolled on the South Orange campus were veterans. This was the highest per- centage of any college in the nation. One of the primary moves was the establishment of the Veteran’s Guidance Center to aid the returning soldier who was doubtful as to his collegiate ap- titudes and abilities. This center is still in evidence on the campus today and has been instrumental in clarifying the educational objectives of thous- ands of returning servicemen. On March 2, 1949, the Reverend John L. Me- Nulty, Ph. D., succeeding Monsignor Kelley, be- came the twelfth president of Seton Hall. He embarked the institution on a period which will go down in history as her most illustrious and rewarding in point of service to education, the state, and the nation. It is a period which has seen the College raised in status and Doctor McNulty serving as the first president of Seton Hall University. John Laurence McNulty was born in New York City. His first contact with Seton Hall, which now proved to be a lifelong one of dedication and service, was made in 1913 when he registered at the Preparatory School. Following his graduation, he matriculated at the College. After receiving his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1921, he pursued post-graduate work at Seton Hall, being awarded the Master of Arts degree in 1922. For his eccles- iastical studies he then proceeded to the Univer- sity of Louvain, in Belgium, where he was ordain- ed in 1925 together with his brother James, the present Bishop of the diocese of Paterson. Returning to this country, Father McNulty was appointed to the faculty of Seton Hall College as an instructor in French and religion. In 1935, he was awarded his doctorate by New York Univer- sity. During that same year he was appointed head of the department of modern languages at Seton Hall, retaining this post until 1943, when he became dean of the Urban Division. He was raised to the honor of domestic prelate with the title of Right Reverend Monsignor in December, 1949, by his Holiness Pope Pius XII. Monsignor McNulty is a member of the Gallery of Living Catholic Authors; the author of several French textbooks; a trustee of Caldwell College for Women; a past president of University of Louvain American Alumni Association; he has likewise served on numerous city, county and state com- missions and study panels. One of the new president’s first official acts upon taking office was to confer with the members of the Board of Trustees on the reorganization of Seton Hall on a university level, and the fruits of that conference were shortly in evidence. As a result of this historic meeting, Monsignor McNulty immediately appointed special commit- tees to formulate a new chart of administration lor the more efficacious employment of Seton Hall s ever-increasing resources of faculty, scholar- ship and physical facilities. The ninety-five-year- old simple verticle line of administration gave way to a system under the supervision of three vice-presidents who directed the instructional, personnel services, and business areas of the school. These three positions are now held by Reverend Thomas W. Cunningham, Ph. D., Doctor Alfred D. Donovan, LL. B., and the Reverend John F. Davis, S. T. L. In each erea were grouped, respec- tively, the educational offices, the non-academic seivice officers, and the financial personnel neces- sary to conduct the workings of a new tvpe of Seton Hall. ^ In March, 1950, the Middle States Association of Colleges and Universities, the regional accredit- ing association, made an inspection visit to Seton Hall as a member college. The visit was rich in suggestions on how to meet the challenge and an implementation of these ideas was begun. Approval by the Board of Trustees of Monsi- gnor McNulty’s plans led to a request for a change of status made by the College to the legislature of the state of New Jersey. On June 2, 1950, the request was granted. Seton Hall College became officially Seton Hall University. Out of a multi- departmental college arose four distinct schools; the College of Arts and Sciences; the School of Business Administration; the School of Education; and the School of Nursing. Upon their return to Seton Hall University in 1952, the Middle States Association heaped high praise on the reorganizational efforts. Since that time, Seton Hall has served as a pattern for other institutions with similar problems, and she has consistently lent her aid and counsel to such whenever called upon. In 1951, less than one year after Seton Hall’s change of status, a new and inviting proposition, the creation of a School of Law, was presented to Monsignor McNulty. In honor of the fiftieth anniversary of the ordination to the holy priest- hood of Archbishop Thomas J. Walsh, the Honor- able Alexander F. Ormsby, ’16, LL. B., LL. D., offered the entire physical assets of the John Marshall School of Law in Jersey City to Seton Hall University. Included in this munificient bene- faction was an outstanding library. The Board of Trustees immediately accepted the magnificent gift; and after a lengthy span of beneficial service to the legal profession and the community, the John Marshall School of Law passed out of exist- ence and the Seton Hall University School of Law was born. Miriam Teresa Rooney, LL. B., Ph. D., became the only woman dean of a law school in the United States; the Reverend Thomas M. Reardon, A. M., LL. B., became the School of Law’s first regent. The first classes were held in Jersey City, after the assemblage of an outstanding faculty. Among the most illustrious of its members is Dr. John C. H. Wu, eminent philosopher, scholar, and legal authority. Dr. Wu has recently brought ad- ditional prestige and honor to the University with the publication of this latest book, Fountain of Justice, a distinguished tome on legal jurispru- dence. The School of Law has now graduated two classes and their members have achieved an en- viable percentage of success in their examinations before the New Jersey Bar. In September, 1955, the School of Law received full approval from the American Bar Association meeting in con- vention in Philadelphia, a record of which the University is justifiably proud. Continuing its physical expansion to meet new educational demands, the University purchased a twelve-story office building at 31 Clinton Street, Newark, to house the ever-increasing student body of the University College — the new designation given to the former Urban Division. This purchase enabled the School of Law to move to Newark in September, 1951, and occupy the Urban Division’s former site at 40 Clinton Street. Almost simultaneously with the establishment of the School of Law, a new and important service to the community was born, the Seton Hall Insti- tute program. Under the impetus of Monsignor McNulty, the Institute of Far Eastern Studies was established in 1951 to bring the wisdom and scholarship of that often misunderstood area to the students and lay people of New Jersey via special lecturers, study groups, and publications. The Institute has done much to foster a better understanding between two widely diversified cultures and philosophies. In conjunction with this enterprise the University acquired a printing press in Hong Kong, where Western books and pamphlets are translated and printed in Chinese dialects and distributed both beyond and behind the “bamboo curtain.” Thus the Institute of Far Eastern Studies has become a two-way street of information. The next outgrowth of this ever-expanding pro- gram was the formation of the Italian Institute under Dr, Julius Lombardi, which brings to Ital- ian and native Americans a greater understanding of their magnificent culture and heritage through the medium of art exhibitions, stimulation of scholarship, and operatic and dramatic presenta- tions. Through the Institute , stars of the Metro- politan Opera Company are brought to the campus, affording countless thousands an opportunity to enjoy and appreciate their magnificent talent. The Institute of Irish Culture has been in exist- ence only a few short years, but already it has spread its influence over the entire metropolitan area. Originally established with the thought of presenting only courses in Irish history, drama and folklore, the Irish Institute has in the past year branched out to the field of television where a potential audience of millions can gain a better understanding of the Irish heritage and its con- tributions to the American way of life. This Insti- tute, of which Miss Rita Murphy is the director, presents a semimonthly half-hour show which brings music, the arts, folklore and fantasy to uncounted observers. Recognizing that a vast population in this area is comprised of natives of Poland, the Polish Institute was established a short time later in order to continue in that people an awareness of the culture and contributions which that subjugated country has given to America. The latest and potentially most dynamic con- tribution by Seton Hall in her service program has been the establishment of the Institute of Judaeo-Christian Studies, which was designed to promote a better understanding of the Jewish- Christain relationship through the demonstration of the unity of God s design as it leads from the law to the Gospel. Under the direction of the Reverend John M. Oesterreicher, the Institute published its first yearbook, The Bridge, in Octo- ber, 1955. This volume, an outstanding collection of essays dealing with Judaism and with Chistian- Jewish relationships, has received wide critical acclaim. Another effort on the part of Seton Hall to acquaint her students more thoroughly with Amer- ican enterprise in action, and in turn to promote a better community understanding of the Univer- sity, the “Career Convocation” program was in- augurated in 1948. Month by month it continues to fulfill its original objective. The Convocation program is actually a joint effort on the part of Seton Hall and the New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce to bring to the campus successful people in the American tradition, thus enabling the student body to gain a first-hand knowledge of why the American system is the best. As an adjunct to each monthly program, businessmen throughout the metropolitian area are invited to be the guests of the University to observe how Seton Hall is bringing the American success story to her student body. The University is indebted to Mr. Leonard Dreyfuss, President of the United Advertising Corporation, whose unceasing zeal and industry have done so much to make this pro- gram the tremendous success that it is today. Another modern need gave rise to a new divi- sion of educational activity in 1953: the Com- munity College, a two-year unit with authority to confer the degree of Associate in Arts. It was founded by the Reverend Edward J. Fleming, co-ordinating dean, to meet the pressing demands for specialized vocational training for secretarial and general business positions. It is, in reality, a .junior college program with a strong basis of lib- eral arts courses. The most recent outgrowth of the Community College started in September, 1955, with the establishment of courses in police science. This curriculum was developed to enable communities throughout the state to send their law-enforcement officers to the University to re- ceive the specialized training which would other- wise be unavailable to them. The new program had an initial registration of 102 officers repre- senting 47 communities. On June 6, 1952, the University lost its spiritual father, when Archbishop Walsh, “the Archbishop of Education,” was called to his eternal reward. As his successor, the Holy Father named the Most Reverend Thomas A. Boland, S. T. D., at that time Bishop of the suffragan diocese of Pater- son. The same affectionate solicitude that Arch- bishop Walsh had shown was immediately evident in the new president of the Board of Trustees. Time was not standing still in the world, nor was it at the Univeristy. A new building program was started on the campus and the first structure to be completed was a beautiful dormitory, Bishop’s Hall. This facility accommodates over five hundred boarding students and has every possible appointment to make Seton Hall a “home away from home” for her out-of-state and foreign stu- dents. Included in the building are a chapel, recreation rooms, dining hall, and student lounges. Next to be completed on the campus construc- tion project was the $2,500,000 Science and Re- search Hall to meet the demands of an expanding pre-medical and pre-dental curriculum. Broad and deep research in the basic sciences is carried on in this building, which provides classrooms, lab- oratories, and research facilities in the fields of biology, chemistry and physics. At present, grants- in-aid are supporting research in the study of carcinogenic compounds, in the study of traumatic shock, and in projects for the new radio-isotope laboratory. Four stories high, the building houses rooms for photography, temperature control, and many private research rooms and special-purpose animals, in addition to a botanical greenhouse and a machine shop. An amphitheatre with a seating capacity of 250 dominates the front part of the structure, and a spacious science reference library and reading room is located on the third floor. The completion of the Science Hall in the Spring of 1954 prompted the University to initiate a graduate program leading to the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry. This program, which is open to both men and women, currently has ninety students pursuing postgraduate work. The newest addition to the eight-million-dollar campus construction program is a magnificent library situated adjacent to Bayley Hall. This structure was made available for student use in January, 1955, and offers every conceivable aid and service in the field of library science. Included in the four floors are graduate study rooms, semi- nar rooms, typing rooms, student lounges, a com- plete lecture hall with the latest audio-visual equipment, a book bindery, and special photo- graphic darkrooms. Each building was necessary in the educational expansion of the University, and still progress was going forward in all areas. The next point of growth was in the city of Pat- erson. Northern New Jersey, in the Passaic-Bergen- County area, was very much in need of Catholic higher education for both men and women. At the invitation of Bishop James A. McNulty, brother of Monsignor John L. McNulty, Seton Hall opened The Varsity Baseball Team in 1904 Varsity Football Squad, 1904 its Paterson College in September, 1954. The site of the Elks Home on Ellison Street in the heart of the city was selected as an ideal location for this newest education endeavor, and under the direction of the Reverend Thomas J. Gillhooly, appointed as the dean, a beautiful four-story struc- ture rapidly rose to completion. In the short span of its existence, the Paterson College has had a profound influence on the community and area in which it is situated. Follow- ing the pattern of Seton Hall’s past service, Father Gillhooly immediately made available to the citi- zens of the area a special Federal Income Tax Clinic, which was an overwhelming success from the start. In October, 1955, the registrar’s office in Paterson revealed an enrollment of 680 students, and prospects for continued growth are unlimited. September, 1956, will mark Seton Hall’s en- trance into the second century of her existence, and it is particularly appropriate that 1956 will see the greatest milestone in the University’s growth, the opening of the Seton Hall College of Medicine and Dentistry in the Jersey City Medical Center. The first public indication that Seton Hall was interested in the establishment of a medical-dental college was the announcement by Monsignor McNulty, on March 17, 1954, that the University was looking into the possibility of setting up New Jersey’s first college of medicine and dentistry in the Jersey City Medical Center. But Seton Hall’s interest in such a project was manifest many years before. As early as 1937 serious attention was given to the problem of supply professional personnel for health service in the state of New Jersey. Such service is severely handicapped in any area lacking opportunities for medical and dental edu- cation. Recognizing this great need, Seton Hall in 1937 became the first college in New Jersey to offer a degree program in nursing. In 1942, the program of study in Public Health Nursing was approved by the National Organization for Public Health Nursing and has remained accredited by that group and its successor, the National Nursing Accrediting Service, since that time. A basic four-year academic course in profes- sional nursing was initiated in September of 1953. Preparatory to this step, a survey was made of clinical opportunities in the state. As a result of '■ 5 » 4 4 H NIT Basketball Champions, 1953 the survey, similar programs have been started by other colleges. Today Seton Hall University conducts the largest degree program in Nursing in the East. It is the only school in the state that today offers degrees in Public Health and Nursing Education. The School has conducted extension courses in cities throughout the state such as Camden, Trenton, Lyons, Red Bank, Newark, Jersey City, Paterson, Hackensack, Mata wan, New Brunswick and Long Branch. Seton Hall nursing students engage in clinical practice at the Jersey City Medi- cal Center, St .Michael’s Hospital in Newark, and Greystone Park State Hospital in Morris Plains. In 1946, recognizing the need of the practicing physician to keep abreast of current advances in medicine, and at the same time to perfect his skills under the guidance of senior physicians and surgeons, Seton Hall launched a graduate medical education program for doctors. This program was sponsored by the Essex County Medical Society and was inaugurated under the far-sighted presidency of Doctor Thomas W. Harvey. Dr. Gerald I. Cetrulo was appointed liaison officer between the University and the Medical Society. Later the State Medical Society also participated in the work. Since its inception, this program has made avail- able to the physicians of the state of New Jersey 175 separate courses. Certification is offered in Surgical Education, Post-Graduate Medical Edu- cation, and General Practice Education. More than 4800 physicians have received instruction under the Seton Hall program. Hence it is easy to understand Seton Hall and Monsignor McNulty felt that the University had a sufficient back- ground to undertake this tremendous project. On May 12, 1954, the Board of Trustees of Seton Hall University approved plans to establish a college of medicine and dentistry in the Jersey City Medical Center. On August 6, 1954, incor- • poration papers were filed in Trenton, New Jersey, for the Seton Hall College of Medicine and Den- tistry. Formal ceremonies establishing the new school were held on August 11, 1954, in the Jersey City Medical Center before a group of 400 prom- inent educators, public officials, medical and dental officers, and distinguished guests, in ad- dition to a vast metropolitan television audience. On November 5, 1954, Seton Hall received from the New Jersey State Department ot Education a license to operate the College of Medicine and Dentistry. On November 16, 1954, the Jersey City Com- mission unanimously approved the leasing of the Clinical Building of the Jersey City Medical Cen- ter to the Seton Hall College of Medicine and Dentistry and authorized Mayor Berry to sign the contract with Seton Hall officials. On November 31, 1954, the New Jersey State Dental Society named a liaison committee to assist Seton Hall in the establishment of the College of Dentistry, with Dr. William A. Giblin, state president, serving as chairman. During the next month, Monsignor McNulty announced the appointments of the deans. Doctor Charles L. Brown, dean of the Hahnemann Medi- cal College in Philadelphia, was named to head the Medical College while Doctor Merritte M. J. Maxwell, former chief of Dental Service with the United States Navy, was selected to guide the Dental College. Universal public and profes- sional approval followed Monsignor McNulty’s announcement. The Reverend Michael I. Fronc- zak, chairman of the Pre-Medical Department, was appointed liaison officer between the College of Medicine and Dentistry and the Administration of the University. On May 2, 1955, the New Jersey State Legis- lature unanimously passed a bill which will safe- guard the legal status of the Seton Hall College of Medicine and Dentistry, and this bill was signed into law by Governor Robert B. Meyner on May 18, 1955. The first educational offering by the Seton Hall College of Dentistry, a four- day post-graduate course for orthodontists, under the auspices of the Hudson County Dental Society, began in the Jersey City Medical Center on June 5, 1955, with a class of 23 students. Seton Hall gratefully acknowledges the faith and confidence of the New Jersey State Medical Society and its president. Dr. Elton W. Lance, in this new venture, and is deeply appreciative of their aid and counsel. So, from a student body of five in 1856 to an enrollment of over eight thousand in 1956, Seton Hall stands on the “threshold of its second cen- tury.” And from one frame building on a tract of farmland at Madison, and a dream in the mind of Archbishop James Roosevelt Bayley, has sprung a far-flung University whose influence and services reach to the outermost environs of New Jersey and even beyond. The original College of Arts and Sciences has since spawned the School of Education, the School of Business Administration, the School of Nursing, the School of Law, Pater- son College, the Community College, and now, the College of Medicine and Dentistry and the cul- mination of a dream of service. Seton Hall University can boast of no single benefactor who has sustained her through the years, but gratefully acknowledges the many acts of confidence in her ideals shown by the “little man” of all races, creeds and nationalities. Senior Officers JOSEPH LUCCIOLA V ice-President CHARLES SCHRAK Secretary CHARLES WILLIAM DOEHLER President The Class of 1956 has had the honor of being designated the Centennial Class of Seton Hall University. One hundred eventful years lay behind the Centennial Class — one hundred years of growth from- a one building campus in Madison, with graduating classes of under ten students, to the present univer- sity with graduating classes over one thousand. The material growth of Seton Hall has been great, but it is useless unless it is reflected in the graduates. It is on the men and women, whose portraits fill the following pages, that Seton Hall must base its worth. In the one hundred years of Seton Hall history there have been classes graduated in better times and in worse times — in wars, in peace, in prosperity and in depressions. But this is the age which the graduates of 1956 must do with, and, in line with this, Seton Hall has attempted to prepare them for their battle with life. Each graduate has been instilled with a firm moral and educational background to provide him with the tools necessary for him to attain his goal. Unfortunately, there will be some graduates who will not put their implements to use, but on the other hand, there will be graduates who will bring great glory to Seton Hall. The true measure of any graduate will only come to light through the test of time. The men who bring honor to the university will not only be those who amass great fortunes or who become nationally famous. Only in those men who “never waver from his precepts” will Seton Hall have produced true sons. 78 THOMAS F.

J. 238 Underclassmen Class of 1957 DAN MURRAY Vice-President SAL DI RUSSO Secretary FRED DUFFY President The first of the new century. Seton Hall is currently celebrating its Centennial Year. One hundred years of growth and achievement are being viewed in retro- spect. But this is not the end of an era it is the start of a new one. An age that will see Seton Hall scale even greater heights in the education of Catholic men and women. And the first of this new breed are those of the Class of 1957. The activities of the Junior Class have been many and varied. But they all have one distinguishing feature— that of general excellence. This record of achievement is easilly understood when one examines the men who are the leaders of the Class of ’57. In the forefront stands Fred Duffy. As President Fred has devoted his time unselfishly to the affairs of the Class. But he does not stand alone; his fellow officers, Vice President Dan Murray, Treasurer Gary Nardino, Secretary Sal Di Russo and Student Council Representatives Dick Monago, Joe Potocki, and Ted Swift have been with him every step of the way working as one to set a record of unpre- cen dented success in the annals of Class histories. First and foremost of the class activities was the Prom held in the Hotel Taft. It was an unqualified success. The Junior Dance held in the Fall besides being a striking social event filled the Class coffers with revenue so necessary to carry on outstanding class affairs. The Class of ’57 is as good a beginning to a new era as one could possibly hope for. GARY NARDINO Treasurer Jax T. Ahem William V. Alexander Wayman N. Alston Ronald C. Alvarez James R.

Yakubisin The Class of 1958 is smug with its assurance that comes with elevation from a subservient position to one of some sway and pomp. As lowly frosh they were made to bend before the righteous wrath of upperclassmen. But the worm has turned, and they too had their day. That of course came with the period of Freshman Initiation this year. Under the leadership of President John Kenya and slate of officers, the Sophs had the monumental task of introducing wet novices into the intricate rigors of col- legiate existence. And introduce they did, using every dire force concocted by the mad mind of men these lowly frosh were made to bend as their tormentors did the year previous. But the sole activity of the Sophomore Class did not come to rest after Freshman Initiation. They presented a full slate of social activity such as any class would have been proud to sponsor. Their influence was felt in all phases of campus co- curricular life. The Sophs were represented everywhere from The Setonian to the Campus Council. And they served well — garnering for themselves the experience necessary to qualify them as future school leaders. Salvatore D. Abate Clifford J. Adamsky Emanuele A. Alfono James C. Allen Anthony A.

Zimmerman Walter Zinych Richard J. Zurichin Edmund P. Zybulewski William J. Zylka As is traditional with every incoming class, the class of 1959 was welcomed to Seton Hall by their ‘'friendly” brothers, the Sophomores. The freshmen were forced to conform to hazing regulations designed to make the individual feel a part of the university. Any who did not conform were summoned to the Sophomore court where penalties were meted out. Having successfully passed through the hazing period, the freshman were next introduced to the election system at Seton Hall. They entered into the swirl of campus politics with the zest that comes only with youthful enthusiasm. Following the proven policy of their predecessors, they postered the campus with a copious amount of campaign literature, nailed up garish signs and distributed the usual vote-inducing cigars and soda-pop. After the smoke of battle had cleared, Frank Baier emerged as President; Leo Gellene, Vice President; Jack Ryan, Secretary; Bob Pingarron, Treasurer; and Joe Shine, Pete Pappalardo and Iggy Foley, Student Council Representatives. The freshmen did not allow their enthusiasm to die with the elections, but put it to work toward making their activities a success. The most prominent of all activities was of course the Freshmen Dance. Entitled "April in Paris” it took place on the night of April 13, and was a striking success. Chairmen Dave Newton and John LoGiudice deserve a great deal of credit for over- coming the initial organizational hurdles and producing an enjoyable evening. Class of 1959 Salvatore P.

A good band adds a great deal of luster to any parade, while, by the same token, a poor one can detract enormously from a review. But the major purposes of a band is not, of course, to entertain the spectators. The band must provide the musical cadence to keep the marchers in step. Without this aid, a parade could become very disorganized. This year the band was again fortunate in having as its Director Lt. Colonel John B. McKenzie (retired). Colonel McKenzie has had a great deal of ex- perience in directing bands; experience which was put to good use in developing an organization of which the Seton Hall R.O.T.C. could well be proud. The band had the additional good fortune of having an effective student leader in Cadet Officer Herb Schell. ( V Rifle Team Marksmanship — Competition — Sportmanship. These three words describe the Seton Hall R.O.T.C. Rifle Team. Despite the loss of six men through graduation, plus the loss of Co-Captain Kelly early in the season, the squad came through a trying period of rebuilding in fine fashion. A great deal of credit is due to 1st. Lt. Harold B. Palmer, team moderator, and to the coaching effort of M/Sgt. Joseph Sapienza. These men guided the team through the season and are largely responsible for its fine showing. ! Pershing Rifles The Pershing Rifles is a National Honor Fra- ternity for selected members of the Reserve Officer Training Corps. The “PR’S” gives to its cadets a greater knowledge and a fuller appreci- ation of military life. Any man who wishes to join the Pershing Rifles must first go through an intensive pledge period. This time of trial is quite similar to the plebe life at the military institutions. At the end of pledging there is a hell week during which the regulations are still further intensified. Those men who make the Pershing Rifles must give up many mornings of sleep in order to drill. They must also be prepared to assume extra duties, such as directing traffic at convocations. In taking on these tasks the members not only gain valuable experience, but provide a great deal of help for the school. . 3 . Reviews and Parades “ Eyes Right ” “ Color Guard” This past summer, the Senior R.O.T.C. students once again made their annual six week plunge into the full time rigors of Army life. At Fort Bragg, North Carolina, the officer candidates were given the opportunity to put their three years of training to use. Furthermore they were instructed in facets of Army life which could not be covered in the confines of the South Orange campus. Two cadets, Walter R. Jones and Thomas Kelley, especially distinguished them- selves by winning top marksmanship honors in competition with 1,600 other students. “But Why Me” “All Work ancl No Play . . . ” Military Ball The 1956 Military Ball, as has been the case in previous years, materialized into one of the outstanding social events during the academic year at Seton Hall University. The affair is presented under the aus- pices of the Reserve Officer Training Program at Seton Hall. The committee chairmen are chosen from the senior cadet corps, and work in conjunction with Lieutenant Colonel Frank E. Bart- lett, Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and Major Clarence R. Meltesen, Senior Class Advisor. General Chairman for the dance was Cadet Captain James R. Giuliano. The evenings festivities were brought to a conclusion with the selection of the Queen of the Military Ball. Miss Gerry Crowley, escorted by Cadet Fred Duffy, was given this honor. fv/. f. 3 ^ U I •*? & - . • , iw k* ■*$ Ifc *+' - ,%w 0 < * ' ;* >'!** '*-* A <*„ *': .v i , wvf ir ,^ii^Sr < «•«■, ~ i ; y $&- . / *7 - . ••*. \ % #4 . *1 .V f -'Y 2 3 F ^r> - 4,t *> « * , * ■ »«..*- € " * .«* • %;\ 1 k-?^ : S'..-, .*,¥ *V ; : I If 1 * '%M ***> fc 4 |^;^r v^** r f / •••• : 'V :; iV l-V x ‘ ' ‘ , - 'A - «■'». ••***• ».* - 4 , , •* '^ v< .r.. • -f. »< %- v '<4 ■ • * ■. ’’/£* v ' ,V * H# ' ' 0 * *>■ V 4 t-» _ L >%f/ y " * & 1 ^ 1 , ... ■ .^v Wfc , i *•: • * i:i \.fr? w *v- ' * ■ i^vf/,,.^:: ,- ,v-:f V .: • • *' *sV r< ,; :/.; -• • ..

On June 8th four years of hard work paid off for fifty- five Seton Hall graduates as they received com- missions as 2nd Lieutenants. These commissions are not handed out as awards for attending four years of class, but are granted to those men who have shown that they possess the outstanding characteristics which one expects of an officer and a gentleman. These attributes have been thoroughly tested during the years of classroom work, practice on the drill field and in the six weeks of summer camp. The men who finally received commissions are only a small proportion of the number who started out as freshmen. Within a short time the fifty-five officers will be in army posts all over the world. Regardless of their duty, the training given them by Lt. Colonel Bartlett and his staff will stand them in good stead and help them bring honor to the name of Seton Hall. Student Council The student legislative body of Seton Hall University. The student council serves the undergraduate body of Seton Hall in two ways; it is the governing and rule- making body for all student affairs and it serves as the student voice to the university administration. It is the responsibility of the council to regulate and coordinate all extra-curricular activities on the South Orange campus. Everything from approving the consti- tution of a new campus organization to reviewing budget requests from existing organizations fall under the sway of the council. The first problem besetting the 1955-56 council upon convening was the adoption of the extra-curricular calendar. A time and place had to be assigned for every undergraduate function of the ensuing school year. The magnitude of this task is realized when one considers the various club meetings, class dances, proms, dramatic presentations and intra-mural activities that must be coordinated. Under the leadership of council President Jerome Vogel these problems were overcome with the greatest dispatch. The council supervises the activity of the Student Activities Placement Board which has as its purpose the orientation of all new students into the co-curricular life existing on the campus of Seton Hall. This system of orientation, begun here at Seton Hall, now has spread to numerous other institutions of higher learning through- out this area and even throughout other parts of the country by means of the information distribution centers of the National Federation of Catholic College Students and the National Student Association, both committees of the Student Council. The members of the student body of Seton Hall University may well feel proud of their student govern- ment representation. It is an organization whose sole purpose is to be of benefit to them and to the University. The men who serve on the Council neither ask nor receive any other remuneration than the feeling of know- ing that their work is spoken of in terms of a job well done. J. VOGEL President T. SWIFT T reasurer D. MANAGO • Vice-President D. JAMES B. STANZILE Recording Secretary J. PENDERS Knights of Setonia The primary aim of Catholic education is recognition of the spiritual. Ever mindful of this, the faculty and student body of Seton Hall, in 1937, instituted the Knights of Setonia. The Knights is an organization founded to aid Catho- lic students of Seton Hall University in the active practice of their faith. Each Thursday and Friday at the eight o’clock Mass the example established by its founders is still evidenced, when members of the Knights join in a closer union with Christ through the Sacraments of Penance and Holy Eucharist. With the guidance of Msgr. Walter Jarvis the Knights have become an intrinsic part of life at Seton Hall and have grown into the largest and most vital organization on campus. Members of the clergy assist Msgr. Jarvis in spiritual matters while member Knights are appointed as Com- manders and Assistant Commanders tending to the administrative details and acting as a per- sonal stimulus to other students. Following Mass in the Campus Chapel the women of the Bayley Seton League generously offer their time by serving breakfast to the attending Knights. The spirit of Catholic Action permeating Seton Hall students is probably best exemplified by the activities of this body of men. A Snack Before School. Commanders and the Assistant Grand Commanders.

To- wards this end they exercise regularly with the weights. To become a member a student does not have to be a veritable Atlas, one merely has to be interested in keeping his body muscles in tone. The club has only been recognized for two years. In this period various members have competed in amateur weight-lifting meets. Eventually the club hopes to gain recognition as an official university athletic team. Until that day comes, the Barbell Club will just go on letting works speak louder than words. 302 The 1956 GALLEON The Centennial To produce a normal annual is a prodigious task— to compile a centennial yearbook is a job of unbelieveable proportions. This year the normal difficulties were com- pounded by the inclusion of an extensive historical section, a special sports gallery, and the addition of the individual portraits of the undergraduates. However, the inclusion of the additional coverage necessary to com- memorate the high points of Seton Hall history could not be done at the exclusion of the normal material which makes up a Galleon. The activities of 1956 were as important as any of those of the past hundred years. The heaviest burden naturally fell upon the editor. It was the job of Editor-in-Chief Ramsey to oversee the job from the time it was just an idea until the last books were distributed. His job started last summer and con- tinued right on through the whole year. To help him with his work, Ramsay appointed three Associate Editors — Gary Nardino, Don James and Victor Papa. It was their job to devote their time to a certain section and make sure that it was done properly. Ned Crowell was selected as Managing Editor. His job was to help the Editor-in-Chief co-ordinate all the divisions of the annual. Bob.Delsandro filled the dual positions of Business Manager and Advertising Manager. He had to keep the finances straight and dig up enough advertise- ments to support the whole endeavor. John Homlish handled the job of Sports Editor. His task was compli- cated by the addition of a sports gallery. Without these men, and many others, the publication of the Galleon would have been an impossibility. REVEREND JOSEPH W.

The purpose of the St. Thomas More Pre-Legal Society is to supply the prospective student of law with a practical knowl- edge of law and to familiarize him with the various fields of specialization open to him. Prominent legislators and jur- ists are invited to speak before the Society at regular intervals during the scholastic year. Mem- bers of the Society make fre- quent visits to Newark courts where they observe the law in action. Another regular activity is the conduct of mock trials, at which time members of the society emulate the workings of a court of law in action. The St. Thomas More Pre- Legal Society is now in its six- teenth year of operation, and the success attained by its alumni in the field of law bears fitting testimony to the impact of the organization. OFFICIAL UNDERGRADUATE NEWSPAPER OF SETON HALL UNIVERSITY The Setonian is the official undergraduate journalistic organ of Seton Hall. Here, interested students can gain valuable experience in news- paper work. This benefits not only those who wish to enter this field, but also those who are entering any business. However, the real profit is to the students of Seton Hall. Through the Setonian, they are kept informed as to all the happenings on campus. Every 7 new issue of the Setonian is eagerly awaited by the student body. Publication day there is always a large crowd waiting at the distribution points in order to secure copies. This year, under the direction of Jack Hansell and his Associate Editors, Gary Nardino and Morris Straitman, the Setonian once again maintained the high standards of the past years. Hansell added many new columns and contrib- uted new ideas which provided the variety which helps make the paper interesting.

The Academy of Science The Academy of Science, the student affiliate chapter of the American Chemical Society, launched its ninth year as one of Seton Hall’s most active organizations under the guidance of its faculty moderator Doctor Daniel T. Saint-Rossy and an efficient Executive Com- mittee. The Academy, which is composed of undergraduate students majoring in the physical sciences, has set and maintained the high ideals of a closely knit, purposeful collegiate organization. To promote and inspire the students of the physical sciences at Seton Hall University to obtain a fuller understanding of the ideals of science and thus foster a professional pride in the sciences is the primary objective of this industrious group. In the past year, the goal was realized, as before, through the immediate contact of the members with prominent men and women of science. This desirous effect was the result of engrossing lectures by guest speakers in the diversified fields of psychiatry, osteopathy, pharmaceutics, industrial research, dentistry, scientific education, medi- cine, and chemistry. These informative lectures high- lighted every regular meeting of the Academy. The social life of each Academy member was well rounded out by attendance at the Ninth Annual Banquet held in the Military Park Hotel in December. Delegates to the Eastern Colleges Science Conference at Phila- delphia in early April had an enjoyable time among students of member colleges of the A.C.S. along the eastern seaboard. The social attended in May proved to be successful, enlivening the spirits of all before final examinations.

Alpha Kappa Psi The Gamma Pi Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi, first and oldest business fraternity, became the 82nd member of the National Chapter and Seton Hall’s first fraternity. Alpha Kappa Psi was founded at New York University on October 5, 1904. Its objects are to further the individual welfare of its members; to foster scientific research in the fields of com- merce, accounting, finance; to educate the public to appreciate and demand higher ideals therein; and to promote and advance in institutions of collegiate rank, courses leading to degrees in business administration. Gamma Pi sponsors professional programs with outstanding speakers from the business world and education, including professional seminars, career conferences, business exhibits, educational motion pictures, and research sur- veys. It has a placement service to assist gradu- ating seniors and alumni members to make desirable business connections. Gamma Pi, as every other college chapter, holds a number of social events throughout the year which culminates with the Grand Cotillion in April of each year. 312 Society For The Advancement of Management The Society for the Advancement of Management is! a national management society that is interested in pro-; | moting the professional interest of its members through * research, discussion and publication. Its specific objects are to inspire adherence to the highest ethical concepts j of individual and collective social responsibility, and to j encourage the elimination of waste in industry through | the study and application of scientific principles andg| methods of management The Seton Hall University Chapter endeavors to pro- J ofw duce a graduate who is more versatile in his scope thinking and activity, than the average business school- 1 graduate. This finished product is the only criterion byM which the chapter may measure its success. U S.A.M. activities highlighted such features as plantpj trips to the P. Ballentine and Sons Brewery and the;4 Lincoln Mercury Corporation plus films on progressive^ scientific techniques used in present day industry and inter chapter social functions The society concentrated its efforts in the secon semester on a revision of the Student Chapter s Opera tion Manual. OFFICERS — George Walls, Tom Reilly, Hank Dolch, Mr. Dorflinger, Anthony Biczak. BOB KLAUSS DAN LEONOWICH WSOU - Seton Hall Another facet of the high standards Seton Hall has continued to set as an educational institution is the University radio station, WSOU. Now in its eighth year of. broadcast operation as an educational station, WSOU has helped many Seton Hall students to gain practical experience needed in attaining a position in the broadcast industry. From atop the 285 foot tower adjacent to the gymnasium building WSOU beams a signal 2000 watts strong, capable of reaching over 2,000,000 F.M. receivers in the Metropolitan area. The radio station itself is comprised of three studios, a control room, news room, lounge, and a record library which boasts an extensive collection of recorded music, both classical and popular. Programs of every type originate from these studios and remote locations, ranging from dramatic productions to the play-by play of the Pirates games. The entire operation of the radio station with the exception of Program Director and Chief Engineer’s duties is run by the students themselves. 315 Glee Club What is so pleasing to the ear as the skillful blending of men in song? Very few of life’s pleasures can compare with this, which has been the object of so much poetic discourse. We at Seton Hall have a full share of this time-honored grace in the person of our “Ambassadors of Song” — the Seton Hall University Men’s Glee Club. With the advent of its thirtieth anniversary, the Men’s Glee Club began work under the direction of the new and zealous baton of Doctor Mario Varchi. It is his uppermost hope and desire to continue the fine work of his predecessors by leading the club to higher and finer musical accomplishments. Attired in formal white tie and tails, the Glee Club sings in various Women’s colleges throughout New York and New Jersey, as well as in Pennsylvania and the New England states. “Amahl and the Night Visitors ” GLEE CLUB OFFICERS Left to right: Larry Kolata, Jack Colley, Tony Alessandrini, Bill Cannon. The Marketing Club of Seton Hall University is a student affiliate of the American Marketing Association. The Seton Hall chapter began its operations in December of 1950 and in that space of time has blossomed out into the largest and one of the most animated campus activities. The Marketing Club strives to integrate marketing theory in action. It attains this aim by bringing in prominent business men to address the group, by conducting frequent field trips, and by attendance at regional conferences of the American Marketing Association. This energetic program has one end in sight; that of developing in the student of Marketing of Seton Hall Uni- versity a sound and comprehensive understand- ing of the problems of Marketing. President Robert Stone, Vice President Gary Nardino, Treasurer Larry Orlando and Secretary Vic Papa together with club moderator Professor Stanley Strand are the men responsible for the notable success achieved by the Marketing Club this year. The social aspect of the Marketing Club members’ development is far from neglected. The annual Marketing Club Mixer held in the Fall has attracted school wide interest, the Spring Picnic was one of the most successful in years and the Annual Banquet which concludes the year’s activity was graced with the largest crowd 318 ever to attend the affair. Marketing Club President Bob Stone addresses the Marketing Club Banquet. 319 FRENCH CLUB OFFICERS - Vince Gomez, President; Mr. Henri, Moderate; Vince Hig- gins, Student Council. LE CERCLE FRANCAIS The French Club is interested in better ac- quainting the students of Seton Hall with the language and customs of France. At its meetings, movies of France and French life are shown, arid various lecturers who have visited France speak about that country. LANGUAGES SPANISH CLUB The Spanish Club is composed of students who are eager to learn more about the Spanish people. Under the direction of Dr. Eden E. Sarot, the club plans an extensive program in which this end is accomplished. ITALIAN CLUB In our day and age there is, of course, much stress upon international relations. It is, therefore, important for the college students of America to understand the people of other lands. The Italian Club is designed to give the students of Seton Hall a better appreciation of the ancient culture of Italy. ITALIAN CLUB OFFICERS -A1 Rizzlo, Ben Stanziale, Jack Milano, Dick Mongo. 320 SPANISH CLUB OFFICERS - John McLaug- lin, Dick Carr, Morris Straitman, Dr. Eden Sardt, Monroe Acouyan, Vince Higgins. Italian Club members. THOMAS C. BRENNAN Quiet, soft-spoken but with tremendous capabilities— that’s Tom. President of the Inter- national Relations Club and parliamentarian of the Student Council are among his greatest achievements. His intelligent, clear thinking has been a by- word in the Department of Student Affairs. CLARENCE E. McTAGUE An active member of the Vets Club and veteran affairs in general, Clarence has a kind word for everyone he meets. Dependable and trustworthy— a man of character. These are invaluable assets to any man. JEROME J. VOGEL The tradition of the office of president of the Student Coun- cil is one of integrity, respon- sibilty, and work. Jerry has measured up admirably to this great heritage. The overseeing of all the student organizations has been his charge for a year and his executive ability has been put to the test on many occasions. His shoes will be dif- ficult to fill in the coming year. JAMES R. GUILIANO A man of many talents and varied activities but possibly best remembered for his suc- cessful tenure of office as presi- dent of Phi Beta Sigma, the honorary service fraternity. The progress of this organization has been greatly enhanced by his diligent efforts. The R.O.T.C. Ball was under his direction also. JAMES P. DONEGAN Organizer and president of the Booster Club, the most colorful club on campus. His work with this organization is but a small manifestation of the school spirit which he possesses and that we would like to see in more Setonians. Joe can al- ways be depended upon to do any job well and with sincerity. DONALD JAMES Don was undoubtedly one of the most active men on campus this year, or any other year. He found time to head the N.F.C.C.S. plus lend his aid to so many organizations that it would be impossible to list them. Don will also be remem- bered for his efforts to forward the esthetic cause at Seton Hall. JERRY FUCHS Jerry was another of the very active men of the Student Council. He was also very active in the St. Thomas More Society and in WSOU. Jerry had a very thorough knowledge of the functions of student government — a knowledge which he often put to use. CHARLES W. DOHLER Chuck’s career in Student Af- fairs is one to be envied by every student at Seton Hall. Rarely has one man been able to hold the office of his class for three consecutive years or been able to accomplish so much in the same amount of time. He sacrificed much of his time to assure the success of all the class functions. ANDREW A. DeCOURSEY The easy-going red-head whose drawing ability and quick wit have provided so many humorous Setonian car- toons. If one can spread humor and make people laugh, he is truly gifted. The pre-legal so- ciety and the yearbook have also had the benefit of his attentions. JOHN K. HALPIN Jack has been active in many student projects in his college career. He has always ap- proached each task with de- termination and fore-thought. His opinions are highly re- garded by the men with whom he has worked. BENJAMIN A. STANZIALE One of the most thankless jobs in the Student Council is that of recording secretary. Ben has done this job so well that not once have the minutes been missing or late. This is real achievement in the annals of the Council. Thanks to Ben, quick reference can now be made to past proceedings which have bearing upon the present legislation. MORRIS STRAITMAN As associate editor of the Setonian, Morris has been a very capable journalist. Morris is a man of determination, vigor, and principle and will not be swayed from a righteous position. Quiet yet dynamic. 322 Who's Who Among Students In American Universities CHARLES M. LYON The Eastern Colleges Science Conference Social Chairman. Charlie had the thankless job of arranging all the social events for the big week-end and hav- ing spent so much time in prep- aration, found no time to attend himself. This self-sacrificing at- titude will be of service to him as a doctor. VICTOR PAPA Victor is the man to whom most of the credit for a very successful Senior Prom goes. Thanks to his guiding hand the Pep Rally was an outstanding event. Other organizations, such as the Yearbook, also received the benefit of his help. WALTER D. RAMSAY The very talented editor of the Galleon yearbook, Walt’s keen view of life and gift of expression have long been rec- ognized by his fellow students. The centennial issue of the yearbook has been a tremen- dous project — one that has demanded many long hours of careful planning and prepara- tion. And Colleges WILLIAM J. GANNON The fun-loving, always smil- ing president of the Ambassa- dors of Song— the Glee Club. Though faced with many ad- versities in his two years in this office, Bill has come through with honors. The quar- tet will not be the same with- out him. PAUL J. JAMISON Paul is a man who has been able to integrate athletics and scholasticism. He was an out- standing member of the base- ball team throughout his tenure at Seton Hall. Furthermore, Paul managed to find time to head the Sports Staff at WSOU. TlDWIN P. CROWELL The little corporal of .the Academy of Science, Ned has a long list of achievements in all phases of student life. As head of one of the more active clubs on campus he has proven that good work reaps good re- wards in a job well done. His stick-to-it-ness will be an in- valuable aid to him in later life. MARGARET JANET LaFORGE President of the Jersey City Student Council, Janet is a na- tive resident of that town. Though hampered by the lim- itations of extra-curricular at a night college, Janet’s organi- zation has been able to provide many social and cultural events for the benefit of the night students. VINCENT J. HIGGINS Vinnie was one of the most popular men around the cam- pus. His fine disposition made him a friend to everyone he met. Vinnie was active in the language clubs, Student Coun- cil, Vets Club and The Seton- ian, among others. JOHN F. MAYE Many activities have claimed his time and he has proved to be a tireless, ambitious worker. This Plainfield lad has been a permanent fixture around stu- dent affairs. He is always will- ing to lend a helping hand. THOMAS FOLEY Tom has been active in class affairs for many years. Every dance or social function has, at least in part, been a product of his tireless efforts. . Always cheerful, Tom can usually be seen in the Student Affairs building helping with any phase of the daily activities. Depend- able, hard-working, amiable. JOAN H. COLGAN Joan served as President of the Newark Student Council. While in this office she pro- vided the urban division with the most socially active year they have had. Thanks to her efforts, the night scholars were able to enjoy a more collegiate atmosphere. CHARLES M. SCHRACK Charlie is the fair-haired boy of the New Jersey Region of The National Student’s Associa- tion. Having served as president of that organization, he has the opportunity to gain much ex- perience in intercollegiate af- fairs both on the state and national level. Active on cam- pus also, he has served as secretary of the class. 323 From Seton Hall University Accounting Club The Accounting Club of Seton Hall University is now in its second year of existence. In that short period of time it has mushroomed into one of the largest and most active campus co-curricular activities. The activities of the Accounting Club are many and diversified. In a professional, vein they carry on an extensive program of field trips, motion picture displays and addresses by men in the profession. They do not neglect the social aspect of their members’ education either; the Accounting Club sponsors a full calendar of social events that includes a number of stag parties, a banquet and the Annual Award Dinner at which time the club presents a plaque of recognition to its outstanding graduating member. The award is made on the basis of grades received in Accounting courses over his four years at Seton Hall. The grades received on the American Institute of Accountants Test also play an important factor in the selection of the outstanding graduate. With the security that comes from competent leadership and the unflinching support of its members the Accounting Club predicts an even broader program of activity for the future. t One of the outstanding subjects in the classical education of the Greeks was forensics. In the modern system, this stress has faded consider- ably. With the increased enrollments in schools, and with the resultant larger classes, the students no longer have as much opportunity to practice the art of debate. This need is filled by the Brownson Debating Society. This organization meets teams from * other schools to debate certain vital issues. Every year a new national debate topic is chosen and debated. Debating these topics not only improves the students’ power of oratory, but also his poise. Furthermore, the investigation of the material necessary to speak on the topics improves the debator’s mind. One of the highlights of the Brownson’s yearly activities is the annual secondary school tourna- ment. Schools, both Catholic and Non-Catholic, are invited to compete. The tournament is eagerly awaited by the high schools as is shown by the increased attendance each year.

The National Student Organization is a group designed to give students help in their school governmental problems, and a more puissant voice in the national scene. The N.S.A. holds both regional and national meetings at which the problems of the members are discussed. In this way a representative from one school may encounter a representative from another institution who has faced the same problem and found a suitable solution. In addition, the students may have more say in the running of our national government by means of force of num- bers. Neither of the political parties can afford to overlook such a large block of potential voters. In this manner the stu- dents can bring pressure to bear on the national legislature to bring about laws which aid the college student. Joe Agresta, Senior Delegate, talks things over with Student Council President, Jerry Vogel. Catholic College Students jj The National Federation of Catholic College Students has as its primary end the furtherance o'f Catholic principles and ideals within the realm of student ac- tivities on Catholic campuses all over the country. The promotion of the individual student’s awareness of his role in the Lay Apostolic life is its foremost function. All the major fields of student endeavor are serviced by the NFCCS— student govern- ment, forensics, family life, phil- osophy and science. This serv- icing is conducted by commis- sions which act as clearing houses of information, put on ■ student workshops and seminars, and edit and distribute news- letters concerned with the vari- ous fields of operation. The unity of Catholic spirit obtained through the NFCCS is one of the most prized possessions of those ; connected with student life on campus. Jack Milano, Junior Delegate; Don James, Senior Delegate; Father Sullivan, Moderator. WORKERS - Ned Crowell, Frank Gilligan. Phi Beta Sigma Service, honor, fraternity — the motto of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity. The organization pro- vides service by helping any stu- dent organization which requests it. This is done by providing workers or handling the stencil- ing needs of the school. Many of the tasks performed by the fraternity receive no publicity, but they are essential to the running of the students’ affairs. Under the leadership of its presi- dent, Jim Guiliano, the frater- nity was able to expand into larger quarters and assume in- creased duties. It is an honor to be selected a member of the fraternity. Vir- tually all of the top student leaders, those men who have done the most for the school, are members. To become a mem- ber it is necessary to have virtu- ally the unanimous consent of all the members. As a fraternity it naturally builds brotherly spirit among the members. During the year, vari- ous social events are held which cement the feeling of brother- hood among the members.

John Homlish gives spirited student some of that famous Phi Beta Sigma service. Mathematics Club The Mathematics Club of Seton Hall University was revitalized this year after a ten year lapse of inactivity. After the customary six month probationary period the Student Council unanimously voted to restore the Math Club to the status of a fully recognized student organization. This acceptance was the result of a year’s activity that any campus organization would have been proud to call its own. The highlight of the Math Club’s ac- tivities was the Mathematics Conference held in Philadelphia over the Easter vacation. Colleges from the length and breadth of the Eastern seaboard assem- bled to present papers. From the large group present only six papers were deemed worthy of formal presentation before the conference. Four of these six papers were presented by Seton Hall men. Thanks to the efforts of Vic Mitchell, Roy Ericson, John Coogan and Bernard Villa, Seton Hall emerged as the standout of the conference. The Math Club culminated a busy and fruitful year with a banquet at the Friar Tuck Inn. Dr. Joseph Andrushkis was there lauded by President Vic Mitchell as the man most responsible for the initial success the Math Club has enjoyed. And in behalf of Club he presented Dr. Andrushkis with an ivory chess set.

The Press Club of Seton Hall University is comprised of those students who have a more than passive interest in the journalistic profession. The members, guided by Mr. Larry Keefe of the Public Relations Department, are given a keen insight into activities of the fourth estate through active participation- in the affairs of the Public Relations Department. Their activity is consentrated on the Seton Hall sports picture. Press club members serve as statisticians for all Pirate athletic teams. They not only compile these figures, but also assist in their publication and distribution. Periodically, prominent journalists from the metropolitan area are invited to South Orange to address the organization. In the social vein, the members of the Press Club meet regularly for the sake of good fellowship, and the con- versation at these informal gatherings is gener- ally always on a journalistic bent. The current Co-Directors of the Press Club are Gary Nardino and J. Richard Monago, with Walter Ramsay and John Homlish rounding out the Board of Directors. MR. OWEN KEEFE Moderator 331 International Relations Club The International Relations Club is just what the name implies — an organi- zation designed to help the Seton Hall students gain a fuller knowledge of foreign affairs and countries. Towards this end the club invites various speakers from the United Nations and from the various embassies to address the stu- dents. In times such as these, one can never underestimate the value of better understanding our foreign neighbors. The International Relations Club is fortunate in having as its moderator Dr. Russell Plank who is able to secure the speakers for the meetings. DR. RUSSELL PLANCK Moderator If there is one organization on campus that truly captures the spirit of Setonia it is the Catholic Action Society. The field of endeavor of the Catholic Action Society is identical with the prime aim of Seton Hall University; the development of the spiritual in the men of Seton kail. The Society is comprised of a small, tightly knit group of dedicated men. But though small in number the scope of their influence is never- theless impressed upon all Student Activities. The men of the Society are the most ardent supporters and promoters of the Knights of Setonia. Through their efforts, each club on campus has selected a patron saint and a monthly Mass and Communion day. Under the leadership of their moderator, Father Halliwell, they are the caretakers of Mary’s Mint and over the past few years the monies collected t through Mary’s Mint have done much to spread Catholic- ity-on foreign shores. Catholic Action Society Booster Club For many years, there has been a standard lament that, despite the undeniably high caliber of Seton Hall athletic teams, the students would not give them proper support. This fact was often noted by the New York gazettes. In order to rectify this situation, the Booster Club was formed. Under the energetic leadership of such men as Charlie Gibbs and Joe Donegan, the club fired up school spirits. The members of the Booster club were easily recog- nized by their straw “skimmers” with royal blue and white bands. One part of the student section was reserved for members of the club so that they could concentrate their noise-making. In addition to their spirited yelling, they added to the noise by securing a base drum which sounded the cadence for the victory chants. The Booster club chartered buses so that the boys might root for their favorites at the away games. As a result the cagers always had a large section of home rooters at all their games. Considering that this was the first year of real activity for the Booster Club, the achievement was excellent. With such an auspicious start, Pirate cagers of future years can now feel secure that they will always have the school behind them. “A Little Cheering” “ Come on Blue ” Labor Relations The birth of an organization whose objects are the fostering of Christian ideals in the field of labor, and the establishment of a better .under- graduate understanding of the labor question was evidenced in this Centennial Year of Seton Hall University. The scholastic year of 1955-56 found the society presenting to its members many promi- nent individuals in the field of labor. Out- standing labor figures addressed the society in regard to the timely question of the A.F.L. — C.I.O. merger. With competent leadership and the strong support of its members, the Labor Relations Society is certain to realize its high aims. If this year of infancy is indicative of the years to come, the society will carve for itself a prominent position in the Seton Hall scheme of Student Affairs.

The Insurance Club was originated in 1951 and remained an active association until 1954. With the start of the Centennial' Year the group reorganized under the capable leadership of President Michael F. Marzano. Speakers from various companies lectured about possibilities of a career in all fields of insurance. The club brought to the campus a practical knowledge as well as theoretical appl- cations in the field of insurance. The success of the Insurance Club is strikingly evidenced by the Business school graduates who received positions in Insurance as a result of the Club’s efforts. Moderator, Mr. Goerz and President Michael Marzano. Insurance Club Economics Club i Economics is, of course, one of the basic sciences of our life. Much of our daily activity re- volves around economics. The Economics Club attempts to more fully prepare the Seton Hall graduate for work in this field. At meetings, new facets of economics which have not yet been assimilated into class- room instruction are discussed. Furthermore, field trips show the members the practical appli- cation of their subject. The club owes much of its success to the hard work of its moderator, Mr. Mott. | 338 OFFICERS - Jerry McCann, Al Burd, Mr. Mott, R.

Current practices and educational trends are evaluated in the light of a sound Catho- lic Philosophy, with the hope of un- covering solutions for educational prob- lems. Prominent personalities in the field of education acquaint club members with the problems and benefits of the teaching profession; while the observa- tion program, fostered by the club, af- fords its members the opportunity of seeing education in action. The Club organization consists of five elected officers and five appointed com- mittees, the most prominent of which are the Educational Information Bureau functioning as a service to students seeking educational data and advice, and the Student Observation Committee acting as the source of individual par- ticipation in classroom observation and experience. The social calendar is highlighted by a Christmas Benefit for a needy charity, and is culminated by the Annual Dinner honoring incumbent officers and mem- bers who are deserving of recognition.

In the spring of 1954 a group of Seton Hall veterans banded together to form a social activity which would give ex-servicemen the opportuuity to gain friends in a common age and interest group. This marked the birth of the Vets’ Club of Seton Hall University. In these past two years it has progressed at a smart pace. The parties held twice a semester and the annual picnic have become increasingly popular. The Vets Club undertakes such activities as discussions of problems and legislation that may confront the veterans under the G.I. bill. They aid in the rehabilitation of returning veterans by making the transition from khaki, blue and green to college tweed as effortless as possible. One of the more noteworthy activities of the Vet’s Club is the interest they take in those men whose discharge from service did not mean their return home but rather relegation to a hospital bed to heal the scars of war. Members of the Vet’s Club make frequent trips to the Veterans Ad- ministration hospital in East Orange, providing the patients there with gifts, entertainment and perhaps most important of all — sincere interest.

Junior mm On the night of April 27, the Juniors presented their Prom in the luxurious setting of the Grill Room of the Hotel Taft. The Setonians showed their respect for the renowned ability of Leroy Holmes by turning out in large numbers. Mr. Holmes responded by providing an evening that was enjoyable to all present. The Dinner Jack- eted Setonians danced to the lilting music of Mr. Holmes from ten till two. The transition from the suburban confines of the South Orange campus to the sleek, sophisti- cated atmosphere of New York was evidently a happy one as all who attended had an admit- tedly wonderful time. The Prom was one of the finest in recent years both in respect to the turnout and the amount of enjoyment for all concerned. Junior Class President Fred Duiry and Chairman Dennis Byrnes can be proud of the affair they produced. Blessing of The New Structures ' On May 11, 1955, Archbishop Boland visited the Seton Hall campus and bless- ed the library, science building and the Wayside Crucifix. The Archbishop led a procession consisting of the priests of Seton Hall. Following the blessings, the Arch bishop was the celebrant at Benedictior in the Chapel. The Schola sang for the Benediction. CENTENNIAL DINNER The luxurious Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York was the scene of the magnificent banquet which initiated the Centennial year festivities. On December 8, a capacity crowd of one hundred dollar a plate diners heard speeches by such outstanding figures as Cardinal Spellman and Bishop Sheen. A special high- light of the affair was the dis- tribution of a bound history of Seton Hall. “Looks Good ” ITALIAN INSTITUTE CONCERT This concert must certainly be marked as the outstanding cultural event of the year at Seton Hall. On Sunday, February 19, the Italian Institute under the guidance of its chairman, Philip H. Marfuggi, brought to the campus some of the outstanding stars of the Metropolitan Opera. Despite the accoustical difficulties of performing in the gym- nasium, the large crowd immensely enjoyed the edifying performance. Following the concert, a dinner was held in honor of the artists. “The Monsignor and the ‘Met’ ” GEORGE MEANY CENTENNIAL LABOR CONVOCATION During the past year the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations merged to become the largest organization in the world. These combined unions elected George Meany as their leader. On January 8, Mr. Meany was kind enough ter come and address a special Centennial Labor Convocation here at Seton Hall. Before a large crowd Mr. Meany exhorted the United States to use its industrial, scientific and cultural knowledge to win the friendship of other countries. He said that he considered this to be a better method to win friends than by the mere granting of financial aid. Following the address, Mr. Meany and William Schnitzler, Secretary- Treasurer of the union, were granted honorary Doctor of Letters degrees. “A Little Music ” Centennial Activities f Too Bad There Aren't More Elections. Elections rrrrnn pt# s$ps is In the fall of 1956, the American people will again have a chance to choose their chief executive. During the period before the election, both parties plead with the people to turn out and vote. The problem of getting our entire population to vote has always been a critical one in the United States. The democratic form of student government, which exists at Seton Hall, has, like all student organizations, a definite purpose. This purpose is to teach the student the privileges and responsibilities of self-government. By starting early, the students will have formed, by graduation, the habit of voting. The elections are carried on in much the same manner as the national elections. If anything, they are more democratic as any student who gets a sufficient number of petition signatures may run for office. Each party campaigns with all the vigor as either of the national parties.

Freshman Initiation Each year many members of the in- coming freshman class feej rather like lost sheep. In order to make them feel part of Seton Hall, a “hazing” program is enforced upon them. They are forced to obey certain regulations which in- clude the wearing of beanies. In addi- tion they must address upper classmen as “sir” and must know all the songs and cheers of the university. Any freshman who breaks any of the rules is summoned to a special court. The court is presided over by the presi- dent of the sophomore class and a jury of upper class peers is selected. The jury decides each case and in the event the freshman is found guilty, as is usual, he is given a “sentence.” The penalty is usually meted out by some member of one of the surrounding girls’ colleges. Through this program, the freshman class becomes more tightly bound to- gether. Furthermore, during the initia- tion the freshmen become better ac- quainted with the upper classmen. 362 Alumni Association Banquet The Alumni Association Banquet once again proved to be an enormous success. Held at the Hotel Essex in Newark, the turnout was very large. This dinner gives old grads the chance to talk over by-gone days at Seton Hall. The large turnout indicates the continuing support of the alumni for the activities at Seton Hall. A great deal of the credit must go to Father Hakim for his tireless efforts in behalf of the Alumni Association. Efforts which are paying dividends for both the alumni themselves and for Seton Hall. ! REVEREND ALBERT HAKIM HISTORICAL SPORTS GALLERY SETON HALL'S FIRST BASKETBALL TEAM First row: Martin J.

While at Setonia Regan was a predominant force in the Pirates successful basketball exploits. The 1954 Seton Hall basketball squad won the National Invitation Tournament, and compiled an all time record of 27 consecutive wins. The team led by All-Americans Wal- ter Dukes and Richie Regan posted a season mark of 31 and 2. Walter Dukes sets himself for a shot in the 1952 National Invitation Tournament against Beloit. The Pirates eventually lost to Bringham Young in the semi-finals. Walter Dukes is considered the finest basketball player ever to be graduated from Seton Hall. In his senior year Dukes was a unanimous All-American selection. Upon graduation he spent two years with the Harlem Globetrotters, and he is now with the New York Knickerbockers. 373 374 1955-1956 SPORTS Pirates Complete Season With 20-Won 5 -Lost Finishing the 1955-56 basketball season with a record of 20 wins and 5 losses, the Seton Hall Pirates proved that the “little man” is not a lost commodity in modern college basketball. The two standouts of the Setonia quintet were Dick Gaines and Ed Petrie, both just at the six foot mark. Gaines, a junior, was named to LOOK magazine’s Region 2 All-American five, and was given the Most Valuable Player Award in the Richmond Invitation Tournament over the Christmas holidays. He scored a total of 466 points during the regular season to run his two year varsity total to 941. Also during the season he was third on the team in rebounds with 182. Ed Petrie, a senior from New York State, was Gaines’ run- ning mate. A fine defensive player, Petrie was usually assigned to guard the oppositions leading outside scorer. His defensive prowess was exemplified in the Xavier contest when he allowed Jimmy Rooth a mere eleven points, and in the St. Peters game he held “Pep” Dooley to a mere field goal and foul toss. Petrie scored 314 points for an average of 14 per game, while hitting for an average of 44%. The two big men on the starting five were Richie Long and Marty Farrell. Long, a six foot, six inch senior from Jersey City, proved to be a good all around ballplayer, and exception- ally fine under pressure. He averaged 13 points during the regular season, and led the team in rebounds with 231. In the early part of the season Marty Farrell was somewhat of a question mark. In the ’54-’55 season his scoring had not been up to par, and this lapse affected his entire game. As this season progressed however, he developed into a first-rate per- former. His 6' 7" frame became a decisive factor in the Pirate attack, and his scoring at times became almost prolific. He scored 256 points, for an average of 11.1, and was second on the team in rebounds with 185. 375 Bottom Row, left to right: Bill Runge, Hugh Gallagher, Ed Chesney, Ed Petrie, Coach John (Honey) Russell, Father Thomas Fahey, Athletic Director; Marty Farrell, Charlie Lorenzo, Dick Gaines.

Absent when this photo was taken was co-captain Richie Long. BASKETBALL A tremendous problem which faced coach John “Honey” Russell throughout the season was the selection of a fifth starter. Charlie Lorenzo, a junior from East Orange, N. J., and Hugh Gallagher, a senior, handled the job for the Pirates throughout the year. Lorenzo, the better scorer of the two, was not given the post per- manently because of his poor defensive play. He tallied 166 points, for an average of 7.1 per game. Hugh Gallagher never lived up to expectations. He possessed many fine shots, but was never able to score consistently. He had a total of 107 points on the year, for an average of 4.1. Another problem facing Russell was the lack of bench strength. The most consistent of the reserves was Paul Szczech, a sophomore, who saw most of his action under pressure. He scored 35 points, for an average of 1.5, but his fine ball handling helped Seton Hall execute many a successful freeze. Other sophomores who showed fine potential were: Don Roberts, Ronnie Berthasavage, Tony Comeleo, Vinnie Ryan, Julius Nicolai. Tom Regan and Bill Petrillo, both seniors, lacked great scoring ability, but their knowl- 37 6 edge of basketball gave the Pirates two fine reserves. Regan possessed a quick pair of hands, and many times he was the only Pirate who was able to get the ball through a tight zone. Petrillo was used as the post man during a Setonia freeze. He had sure hands, and a fine hook shot which made him quite useful. Ed Chesney and Bill Runge served as re- bounders for the Pirates. Chesney, a junior, lacked sufficient experience and scoring ability to make him a starter, which can also be said of Runge, a senior. Chesney grabbed 103 rebounds, with Runge taking 28. Next season should prove to be another great one for the Hall. Lost through graduation will be Ed Petrie, Richie Long, Tom Regan, Hugh Gallagher, Bill Runge and Bill Petrillo. How- ever some fine freshman ballplayers will be coming up to the varsity. The greatest addition, however, will be six foot eigfit inch Tom Cross, and Johnny Keller. Cross was ineligible this season because of scholastic difficulties, and Keller left school to go into military service, but was rejected because of a knee injury. Both are fine scorers, with Cross a tremendous re- bounder.

The bright- est prospect is Dick Buckelew, a 6'4" Inglewood, California resident. Dick tal- lied 448 points, for an average of 17.6 a game. He can score from any spot on the court, and rebounds exceptionally well. Other fine varsity prospects are: Vince Duffy, who averaged 12.4 points a game, Dick Brightman, 14.7 a game, and Bob j, Samuels, with and average of 12.1 per tilt. These three freshmen, along with Buckelew carried the brunt of the action for the yearlings. All three are fine rebounders, and should have little dif- ficulty making the varsity squad. Fifth man on the team was little Tom Fitz- gerald, who scored 136 points, for an average of 6.1 a game. \ s 384 John McCreay 2nd in A.A.U. 60 yard dash COACH JOHN GIBSON Track Since the era of such great runners as, Andy Stanfield, Phil Thigpen, Bob Carter, Morris Curotta and Harry Bright, Seton Hall has not been able to produce an outstanding track squad. This past season however, brought new hope to future Pirate exploits. Although the team collectively did not gain prominence, individual runners showed great promise for future seasons. The indoor season was a difficult one for the Setonia runners. Competing in the New York and Boston Knights of Columbus meets, the Melrose Games, The Pioneer Club meet, and various other meets on the east coast, the Pirate runners were not able to assemble sufficient points to place them in contention for honors with the leading track squads. The Spring season however, brightened future Pirate hopes. The varsity began to show in the scoring, and the freshmen squad brought back shades of the great track era at Seton Hall. Running for Setonia in the 440 were: Tom Cayhill, Cal Grupe, George Hanna, Chick Maute, Jack Heraut and Ed Cryer. Captain Matt Hennesy ran the half mile and one mile. Hanna and Cryer also ran the half mile, with Cryer also competing in the low hurdles. The mile relay team was composed of Cayhill, Grupe, Maute and Heraut. The two mile relay was run by Hanna, Cryer and Hennesy. The freshmen team consisted of Tom Sheenan,.Vin Male, Ken Brown, Tierney O’Rourke, Walt Winfree, Jim Vella and Cedric Richardson. Ed Cryer passes baton to Cal Grupe during the Knights of Columbus meet in Madison Square Garden. RELAY TEAM — left to right: Tom Cayhill, Jack Heraut, Chick Maute and Ed Cryer. Soccer “ Pardon me!” The Seton Hall University soccer team ended the 1955 campaign with an 0-9-1 mark, the poorest ever recorded by a Seton Hall club. The reason for the poor record may be seen in the lack of experienced players and the unusually tough schedule. Only Herman Kassel, Bob Newkerchen, Barry Fuss and Aurole Schmidt had previous experience. Fred Duffy, a junior from Cranford, N. J., had played soccer in high school, but had not faced college competition until this season. Newkerchen was not on the team until the middle of the year. This was his third consecutive season for the Pirate hooters. Herman Kassel, a junior played full- back and was captain of the squad. Along with Newker- chen he was the steadiest of the performers. Barry Fuss served as goal tender and did an excellent job considering the lack of a strong Pirate defense. Aurole Schmidt had three goals to his credit during the season, and developed into a fine prospect for the following season. The squad was considerably hampered by an injury sustained by Jim Siano, who appeared to have a bright future before a spine injury forced him out of the line-up. An interesting and amazing feature of the campaign was the fact that two sophomores who had never played soccer before were on the starting team. They were Rudy Katzenberger and Mike Sheppard, both were graduates of Seton Hall Prep where they played foot- ball. Under the guidance of coach Bill Garry they mastered the fundamentals of the sport and developed a great deal of know-how. Brian Kelly, also a sophomore, also showed a great deal of skill as the season progressed. The Duke of Duchesne. That’s using the old head.

In nine years of coaching at Seton Hall University Owen Carroll has compiled a record of 96 wins and 38 losses. Last season his club had its worst record, that of 5 and 10, which was Setonia’s first year under .500 with Carroll at the helm. The 1956 campaign however, looms as one of the finest in baseball history at Seton Hall. The team is comprised of many fine sophomores, and experienced seniors which should give the Hall a well balanced attack. The pitching staff, which had its troubles last season, will be aided by sophomores John Allen, John Green, Ed Kaiser and Julius Nicolai. The returning mound staff will have Frank Servas (3-6), Bill Runge (1-1), and Jim Jeskey (1-0). The catching department will be in the able hands of Mike Sheppard and Sam Calello, both sophomores. Harry Payton, another soph, will be at first, Joe Damato at second, Lou Puma at shortstop, and Charlie Calcagno at third base will compete the infield. The outfield will consist of Dick Gaines, captain Jim Dimino in center, and Paul Jamison in right field. Sophomores Paul Szczech and Jake Jeffery will act as replacements. . * ■Hi ill v ■■■.,. 3?(j£sJP^ ..., «»»• sk*l->~ •••xm^ -r The golf team in 1956 will be faced with one of the toughest schedules ever assembled in the history of the Seton Hall squad. It will only be fitting however, because this year’s team will be comprised of some of the finest golfers ever to appear at Seton Hall. The team will be led by Nick Blasi, a senior, and captain of the golf squad for the past three years. Nick is also considered an excellent professional prospect. The only other senior on the team will be Brad Liggett, an improved duller, who made a tremendous showing during last season. Bruce Byrne, Jack Cun- ningham, Bob Cleveland and Jim Milway will complete the squad. Captain Nick Blasi goes for the “bird. 390 4 Ifeifr "ii .J3* Swimming In 1955, after an absence of five years, swimming was returned to the Seton Hall athletic program. Only four meets were scheduled for the mermen in order to give coach Harry McGarrigel an opportunity to develop a squad for future competition. Inexperience was the greatest obstacle, but great will and determination made Setonia a lot tougher than anticipated. The swimmers lost to Villanova, Adelphi and L.I.U., but managed to defeat St. Peters. Two of the losses were close, but Adelphi, one of the best teams in the east defeated Seton Hall. Nick Koscs was the most outstanding performer on the newly formed squad. The ex-Marine controlled the diving events for the Hall. Bob Lovvorn swam the breast stroke, and Bill McKewen, Mike Sheppard, Rudy Katzenberger, Lorenzo Jones, Bob Wilderotter and Bob Lovvorn comprised the medley and individual swimmers.
