    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[undergraduate quips about the motto of the Marquette TRIBUNE, &quot;Sold on Its Merits as a Newspaper.&quot; Says the student, &quot;yeah, so you give it away free.&quot; Back in the dim and hallowed past of not so many years ago that motto was chosen for future generations of Marquette student editors. It was not intended to be a practical truth, but rather was to serve as an ideal whereby successive editors and classes might measure the paper&#039;s worth. Subscription campaigns are bothersome and circulation bookkeeping troublesome so it was logically decided that every student should receive with his education a weekly copy of the school paper. A fiat sum was sidetracked from tuition payments and the Marquette Tribune actually served the entire student body. How well this year&#039;s staff served the student body, how close the TRIBUNE of 1937- &#039;38 approximated the ideal of being sold on its merits as a newspaper is a matter of individual opinion. What is important, however, is that the ideal was present and will be present for future wielders of the editorial pen to aim at. A little idealism was ever the goad and spur to genius. The Editor. The Forgotten Men The back-to-campus movement at Marquette received another impetus last week when it was announced that a girls&#039; dormitory will be ready for freshman coeds next fall. This dormitory fills at least partly a need felt for a long time by Hilltop authorities for a more closely knit student body. It has long been evident that the desired collegiate atmosphere was hampered immeasurably by the wide spread distribution of Marquette students, both from Milwaukee and out of town. The girls&#039; dormitory is the first in what is hoped will be a long series of steps to remedy the situation. Oddly enough, the new venture will be housed on property recently purchased by the Union board for the express purpose of erecting a men&#039;s dormitory. But Marquette is not to be a school of forgotten men, despite this surprising move. For if funds are made available construction work can be begun on property to the south of the girls&#039; home and the initial wing of the proposed men&#039;s dorm can be completed. There is under current consideration a plan to finance the building, calling for the sale of non-interest bearing units of stock, which would be retired over a period of 25 years. It had been hoped that some wealthy friend of Marquette would be able to see his way clear to a dormitory donation, but that hope has gone glimmering in the darkness of the recession. Meanwhile the Alumnae association, responsible for the quick fruition of girls&#039; dormitory hopes, is going ahead with plans for next year. Marquette men look with envy at the venture and wonder how long it will be before their hopes for a like dorm will be realized. The President Speaks It is a fact so obvious that it admits no debate, that interest in humanistic studies has badly languished in recent years. If we were to seek reasons for this condition, we should find them close at hand. It is one of the results of the &quot;practical-mindedness,&quot; I might say the superficiality, which is so common to our generation and our country. It used to be thought that the purpose of education was to prepare an individual for living. The theory has been steadily growing that its aim is to prepare him for making a living. Even educators have succumbed to this delusion, with the result that our education has become, to a considerable extent, &quot;vocational.&quot; High schools are largely trade schools, the curricula of which bristle with courses that might be followed more successfully by apprentices in shops. It is not surprising that this distorted view, that education means fitting for a livelihood instead of for living, should deaden enthusiasm for the humanities. Their immediate money value is slight and, since so much value is attached to money and the things that it can buy, we have achieved the distinction of striking a new low in cultural training. It is indeed regrettable that attention to subjects which appear more closely related to events and problems of the moment has so completely displaced study of these ancient cultures, for even a professional man should be cultured. The successful transaction of business involves the ability to analyze data, to synthesize facts, to generalize conclusions. Many of our present troubles are undoubtedly due to lack of thought. This absence is exhibited by the so-called brain trusters whose attempted remedies for prevailing conditions are, to no small degree, brainless experimenting. I should like to see more and more students at Marquette interesting themselves in the classical branches, which will broaden their interests, give them a better viewpoint of life, and prepare them for the more specialized fields which they intend to cultivate. RAPHAEL C. MCCARTHY, S.J. (In Marquette Classical Bulletin, May, 1938.) It Happened Here 1930 &quot;Smiling Ivy&quot; left Marquette. Kay W. Iverson, hockey coach and director of intramural athletics at Marquette for the preceding four years, turned in his resignation so that he might devote more time to his summer camp in northern Minnesota. While directing the Hilltop hockey team, Coach Iverson established an enviable record and was instrumental in making hockey a major sport at Marquette. * * * 1932 A new plan to let the students pay their registration fees in two installments was announced by the Rev. William M. Magee, S.J. Formerly tuition had to be paid in one payment. * * 1935 John Abbot, Journalism senior, was announced the winner of the annual Intercollegiate Essay contest conducted by the Jesuit colleges and universities of the Missouri and Chicago provinces. Abbot&#039;s subject was &quot;The Catholic Graduate&#039;s View of Neo-Paganism in Modern Literature.&quot; AROUND THE CAMPUS This issue marks the last effort of this year&#039;s Trib staff, and this column, in making its final bow before the new outfit takes over, aims its drivel at the seniors who have spent four years or more here at Marquette. Freshman registration was a puzzle and everybody was amazed at the complications . . . Classes started and they piled on the work with gusto . . . The Avalanche traveled to Evanston and threw a scare into Northwestern, with a sophomore, Skippy McMahon, spearing passes all over the field . . . Bob Dobyns captained the team and Ray Buivid started uncorking some long runs that looked encouraging .. . . Barry Wilson was editor of The Tribune and Joe Pettit took care of the Hilltop . . . The apothecary&#039;s walls were unpainted and the &quot;Varsity Room&quot; was just a bunch of booths . . . Ma Stutson ran a restaurant next door and Tarz Taylor&#039;s gridders ate up the profits . . . The Johnston hall library was divided by a wall and the boys used to lounge on the sofas in the dean of men&#039;s room ... ... Johnny Hamp played for the Prom and Al Bielski and Mary Wendt led the grand march . . . The cagers had a good season with Capt. &quot;Roaring Ray&quot; Morstadt dropping in hook shots from all angles, closing his career with a 20-point performance against Notre Dame . . . They began taking pictures of Marcie Mockler and never stopped, and Phi Chi started a rumor that they were going to get a house . . . Orv O&#039;Niell and Emil Kubash captained the track team . . . Sophomore registration was a bore and everybody knew all the angles . &gt; . In Johnston hall they remodeled the library and closed the deap of men&#039;s room to the public . . . Red Paiser opened a beanery in place of Ma Stutson&#039;s, furnished tasty rye rolls and unlimited butter, and held a bean-guessing contest . . . The football season started and the Avalanche opened with a 33-0 massacre of Wisconsin . . . Hilltoppers in Madison celebrated at great length and started touting Ray Buivid, now Buzz, and Art Guepe for all-American honors . . . The whole season was a nifty until the gridders encountered Temple at Philadelphia and all post-season hopes were blasted . . . Bob Peeples was captain and after the season Milwaukee honored the team with a mammoth testimonial dinner at the Auditorium . . . That was the winter of the big snow and every Friday night some scholar would get snowbound with his date . . . The basketball team, captained by Cy Rubado, had a fair year and nearly beat Notre Dame in the last game Maher was editor of The Trib and Al John and Frieda Krieg co-edited the Hilltop . . . Pinball machines flourished in the Union and the apothecary and Dick Hennessey and Lee Econom, already an old settler, had devised means of beating them . . . The Prom leaders were Tom Rolleri and Kay Walsh, who incidentally are scheduled to wed this month, and Horace Heidt furnished the music ... A sad note was struck by the death of Gridder Mickey McGuire who passed away at Muirdale sanitarium ... A bunch of the boys were whooping it up and hit upon plans for a musical comedy group patterned after Wisconsin&#039;s Haresfoot and Princeton&#039;s Triangle club . . . They were calling it the Tanglefoot club, but plans were squelched by various developments ... A freshman high jumper named Ed Burke set a new world&#039;s indoor mark in New York September of the junior year was the same old stuff, but the ranks of the boys who started as frosh were becoming lesser and lesser . . . The apothecary still did not have one long counter instead of the booths, but had a new coat of paint . . . The old story about the gullible frosh who purchased a Trib, for a nickle was still making the rounds for the twenty-fifth year and, as always, the new crop of freshman girls was appraised . . . The football season started with the Avalanche nosing out the Badgers In a 12-6 breath-taker and continuing to mop up every outfit in sight ... In Chicago, 60,000 people watched the Hilltoppers mow down St. Mary&#039;s, fresh from an airtight battle with mighty Fordham . . . The boys then beat Creighton and Mississippi and Bing Crosby, Pat O&#039;Brien and Kate Smith started booming them on the air for the Rose bowl . . . Then, along came Duquesne and the bubble burst . . . Don Huth edited The Tribune and across the hall studious Joe Kneeland and whimsical Bob Riordan worked long hours on the Hilltop . . . Some of the scholars had a new lunch spot on Wells street where they dined with hamburgers and danced to the music of an electric phonograph until the proprietor wised up to the fact that he was operating at a loss .. Bob O&#039;Keefe captained the cagers, who got fair results, and on New Year&#039;s day the Avalanche bowed to Sammy Baugh and the Texas Christians at Dallas . . . Paul Noelke became the only Prom king in history to win his honor unanimously and led the grand march with Kay Pitman to Anson Weeks&#039; music . . . Some of the boys boycotted the affair and immediately a tirade of letter-writing was launched against them, dubbing them the &quot;Blase 400&quot; . . . Coach Murray startled the Institution by quitting his post for a position at Virginia and Paddy Driscoll was selected to replace him ... Father Lord handled the men&#039;s retreat and sometime in spring the school and the track team mourned the death of Harold Horn, a half-miler, and the College of Journalism suffered a blow In the death of Dr. Maynard Brown . . . Then June and vacation time Last fall was a repetition of registration red tape and the business about theses . . . Paiser&#039;s Del Monte became the Quaker Kitchen, the apothecary was unchanged and Ted Carpenter moved from the third floor of Johnston hall to his new quarters In the Union . . . They opened a new spot in Drexel lodge called the Atlas room and immediately started a hegira of bridge players ... . The football team, under the new tutor, looked very bad at times and very good at rarer times, and opened with a 14-0 victory over Ripon, but lost to Wisconsin . . . Things looked blacker all the time and a heckler who courageously signed his epistle &quot;Silent Sam&quot; wrote Insults to the gridders . . . Then the team closed with a triumph over Duquesne for a finale and &#039;verybody was happy The cagers were one of the nation&#039;s leaders and narrowly missed a b&lt;i to the national tourney in Madison Square Garde&#039;- ... A new political party sprang up, the Campus Combine, and temporarily ended the rule of the Alliance dynasty by steering Phil Cunningham into the Prom kingship . . . &quot;Phil&quot; Klapinskl was &#039;ne queen and Kay Kyser played . . . Retreat set a new high in attendance and the Engineers started wearing suits . . . Along came spring, Easter, and now, exams PAUL THIELEN $ $ REWARD $ $ MISSING! WANTED-Any information leading to the apprehension of the notorious individual pictured above will be liberally rewarded. Two canceled Schuster&#039;s stamps or a year&#039;s free subscription to the Marquette Tribune will be given to the person divulging the whereabouts of the late perpetrator of this kolm. (Editor&#039;s Note: After batting out a farewell ballad to his waiting public last night, Punchy Paul, the principal reason (next to me) why people read The Trib, up and did a complete fadeout. Boasting a horde of admirers which numerically ran second only to the throng that digested my unparalleled editorials, Punchy will be almost as sorely missed as I shall upon my impending day of retirement. One of us might carry on alone. But with both of us gone, alas-I fear The Trib reader will go back to the Marquette Journal.-William P. McCahill, editor- in-chief.) * * Punchy&#039;s last words were- They stuck a Woodstock in my hand &#039;Bout eight long months ago, And told me to write Verse and Worse, Which then had hit a low. &quot;Be funny as you can,&quot; they said, But do not worry, lad, A guy once laughed at Beekie&#039;s stuff, And you know what he had. &quot;A scissors will be kept on hand For when you&#039;re out of gags; Boy Blue McNaught near wore them out In clipping all the mags.&quot; I met a fella known as &quot;Ted,&#039; Who was a kolmist too; But Teddy never went to work Till after I was through. When Prom time came a-creepin&#039; up I found a candidate; But Ernie pulled a Prince of Wales And chose to abdicate. Upon the scene a tree had grown, It was a mighty oak; The rumor of a campus here Was no more termed a joke. Day in and out I searched in vain, Up to the very end; But nothing that I tried would work In finding Langer&#039;s friend. From week to week I listened to &quot;Hey, wanna hear my jokes? Just use &#039;em in your kolm, And watch &#039;em wow the folks.&#039; In every letter I received The content was the same- A quip, a pome, a worn-out crack, And &quot;Use it, with my name.&#039; And then I had those sour &quot;fans,&#039; So sure to toss a rib; The ones who chose to gripe the most Were first to grab a Trib. In spite of Teddy&#039;s order &quot;kill,&quot; In spite of other foes, I hammered out this strip each week, Beset by all my woes. Now that the end has come at last, I should bow out so sad; But after eight long months of this- O BABY, AM I GLAD!!! -PUNCHY PAUL]]></dcterms:description>
