THE PRESIDENT'S PAGEIn these hectic days of reorganization,
it may seem that the modern college
president must keep rvmning faster and
faster, like the characters in Alice in
Wonderland, in order to keep standing
still. During the past decade there has
been increasing recognition that the col-
lege president needs help. At the Green-
brier Conference in 1958, it was gener-
ally agreed by specialists in educational
managment that the president needs help
not so much in making major decisions
as in seeing that they are carried out. Hedoes need help, however, in decision-mak-
ing in specialized-operational areas. Also,
he needs help in gathering facts on which
decision are based, in impressing internal
communications, and in his over-all func-
tion as first officer of the enterprise.
The function of all administration is
to maintain the college through coopera-
tive effort and distribution of the burden.
This function has been described by
many as getting things done and facing
the issues of the moment through the
efforts of other people. Progress and effi-
ciency in college administration has as
the "heart of the matter" the "efforts of
other people" and the "distribution of
work."
The Four Es+afes
Victor Hugo once said, "There is noth-
ing more powerful than an idea whose
time has come." Since educational ob-
jectives, as well as their concomitant
problems, have extended beyond aca-
demic affairs or training of the intellect,
and because of the tremendous growth in
numbers, it has become necessary to
adjust the administrative pattern of the
College. There now exists at La Salle
College what might be known as educa-
tion's Four Estates. Along with the area
of academic affairs, three other sets of
activities clearly have emerged: the ac-
tivities of the student personnel pro-
giam; the task of handling enormousfinancial affairs and physical properties,
and the many facets of public relations,
alumni, and development.
I would like to present four administra-
tors and their responsibilities in these
Four Estates at La Salle College. At a
later date I would like to add their
invaluable associates.
Academic Affairs
The many notes of emphasis that havebeen sounded in the past few decades do
not lessen the importance of the intel-
lectual development of the student. Theprimary reason for the existence of anyeducational institution of higher learning
is to pi-ovide students with a strong
curricular program.
This area of academic affairs is under
the administration of the Dean of the
College with three competent Deans, the
Dean of Arts & Science, the Dean of
Business Administration, and the Deanof the Evening School, who associate
Brother Daniel Bernlan, F.S.C., Ph.D.
with him as the first academic officers of
the college. They share responsibility for
the "tone" of the college, measured by
such intelligent student qualities as cor-
rect manners and dress, maturity and
academic competence. The Dean of the
College is Brother D. John, F.S.C., Ph.D.,
Vice-President and associate professor of
physics.
He has as his first responsibility a
continual appraisal of the academic pro-
gram, so that the objectives of the Col-
lege are attained as fully as resources
permit. In accordance with these objec-
tives it is his duty, also, to study and
plan the development of the faculty. TheCollege looks to his office for the super-
vision and improvement in instruction
through the schools, departments, library
and admissions office. Finally, institu-
tional studies, including admissions, and
the evaluation of instructions and out-
comes of the programs of study fall
among his duties. In general, he mustassume academic leadership of the fac-
ulty and give direction to the programsof instruction so that La Salle will pro-
vide the best possible undergraduate
education in Arts, Science, and Business
Administration to the many who look to
it for this service.
Student Personnel Affairs
A program of student personnel serv-
ices concerns itself with the development
of the total student. It implies that the
central effort of the College is of an aca-
demic nature, but it also recognizes the
need for educational experiences that
assist students in maturing physically,
emotionally, socially, and spiritually—as
well as intellectually. In addition to sup-
porting and supplementing the classroom
experience, the student personnel pro-
gram provides cei'tain out-of-classroom
experiences contributing to the full de-
velopment of the student.
The administrator of this second edu-
cational estate at La Salle College is the
Dean of Students. This program of per-
sonnel services has as its guiding factor
the philosophy of the College. Guided bythis philosophy, the Dean of Students
determines procedures and is responsible
for developing, supervising, and co-
ordinating the agencies which put the
College policies into effect. This educa-
tional estate includes the activities of
housing, student extracurricular organ-
izations, athletics, the health program,student aid, scholarships, the loan pro-
gram, religious activities, varied formsof counseling, and finally discipline. Eachof these areas has its director, who co-
operates with the Dean of Students in
the coordination of an area that hasbeen defined as the extension and deep-
ening of an educational program for the
development of the whole man to live in
a democratic society. The Dean of Stu-
dents is Brother Gavin Paul, F.S.C.,
Ph.D., former Director of Properties andassistant professor of sociology.
Financial Affairs
In the early days of higher education
in America, the president of a college
usually constituted the entire administra-
tive staff of the institution. Since his
appointment was usually based on his
career as a scholar, his qualifications for
administration of the business details
often were not considered important.
Of course, the problems of business
administration in those early days weremuch less complex than they are today.
The physical plant was much smaller,
and the budget only a fraction of whatit is today. Gradually, however, the needfor professional assistance became recog-
nized, and a third estate was established.
This third educational estate, withthe tremendous growth in student num-bers, has taken on enoi-mous proportions.

CAMPUSEVENTS
Brother Daniel Bernlan, F.S.C., left, president of La Salle College, presents the honorary degree

Pope John XXIII, studied at the Jesuit
College, in Montevideo, Uruguay, before
receiving his Ph.D. degree from the Uni-
versity of Notre Dame, and completing
post-graduate work at the Catholic Uni-
versity, Washington, D. C, and Holy
Cross College. He taught at Notre Dameuntil 1933, when he was appointed vice-
president of the University and in the
following year became the twelfth presi-
dent of the University. From 1939 to
1945, Cardinal O'Hara was auxiliary
bishop of the Army and Navy diocese,
and was bishop of Buffalo, N. Y., until
his appointment as Archbishop of Phila-
delphia in 1951. The Cardinal instituted
the movement for the exchange of stu-
dents with South American Universities,
and promoted the daily reception of
Communion by college men.
Ambassador Hearne is a graduate of
Ireland's National University and wasthe Irish delegate to the League of Na-tions in 1926, and served as legal advisor
to Ireland's Department of External Af-
fairs, Dublin, in 1927. He has been the
Irish Ambassador to the United States
since 1950.
Father Davis, a native Philadelphian,
was graduated from Georgetown Uni-
versity in 1937, and earned both his
master's degree and doctoral degree fromHarvard University in 1946 and 1947,
respectively. He entered the Society of
Jesus in 1931 and was ordained in 1942.
After serving as instructor in pre-
Socratic and Platonic philosophy at
Fordham University's graduate school of
arts and sciences, he became a contrib-
uting editor of America in 1953. In 1955,
he was named editor-in-chief of the
magazine.
TWO FROM '59 NAMED LA SALLEADMINISTRATORS
Two 1959 graduates of La Salle Col-
lege have been appointed by Brother
Daniel Bernian, F.S.C., President of the
College, to administrative posts on the
Olney Avenue campus.
Joseph L. Hanley, '59, has been ap-
pointed Director of Alumni and, with
this issue, assumes the editorial reins
of La Salle magazine. He succeeds JohnL. iVIcCloskey, '48, the alumni executive
since 1956, and Robert J. Schaefer, '54,
editor for the past two years.
McCloskey, Assistant to the President,
assumes direction of the administrative
area which will include development,
public relations, alumni, and placement.
John H. Veen, also '59, was appointed
Manager of the $2 million Student Unionnow under construction on the La Salle
campus for occupancy this September.
Hanley, 27, is a native of Indianapolis,
Ind., where he attended Cathedral HighSchool, and was graduated with high
honors in 1949. Early in 1951, he beganfour years of duty with the Navy, in
which he served 21 months aboard the
battleship, V.S.S. Iowa — which saw six
months of duty in Korean waters— andnearly two years of shore duty at the
Naval Communications Facility at PortLyautey, French Morocco. He had at-
tained the enlisted rate of Yeoman sec-
ond-class when he was honorably dis-
charged in 1955.
Hanley began simultaneously his col-
lege studies and work as student assist-
ant in the Alumni Office, a position he
held throughout his four years as a
student. He was co-recipient of the Cpl.
William S. Diamond Scholarship duringhis sophomore year. Hanley's extracur-
ricular activities, while majoring in Eng-lish-Education, included: treasurer of the
Italian Club; staff membership on the
Collegian; secretary of the EducationSociety; co-editor of the 1959 Explorer,
and vice-president of La Salle's chapter
of Lambda Iota Tau, the national litera-
ture honor society. He was graduatedwith Maxima Cum Laude honors, after
maintaining a Dean's List standingthroughout his undergraduate studies,
and now plans graduate studies in Eng-lish in Temple University's eveningcurriculum.
Veen, who received the Bachelor of
Arts degree in History, won the acclaim
of the La Salle faculty and student bodyfor his spirited leadership of the recent
campaign for the carillon system nowin the Olney Avenue tower. While presi-
dent of the Executive Board and of the
German Club, he coordinated the manyactivities that financed the $7,000 system,
which was dedicated to the late PopePius XII.
LA SALLE JUNIOR AWARDEDSUMMER RESEARCH TASK
A La Salle College junior, Robert J.
Rosemery, has been granted a National
Science Foundation award to take part in
' the 1959 Summer Undergraduate Re-
search Program at the University of
North Carolina.
Roberv J. Rosemery
A 1956 alumnus of La Salle HighSchool, attending La Salle College under
a National IVIerit Scholarship, Rosemery
was one of ten selected from more than
100 applicants across the nation. He is
majoring in Chemistry and has main-
I
tained an almost perfect scholastic
record.
The purpose of the summer program,
as outlined by the University of North
Carolina, is to provide undergraduate
students with "research experience of
the highest possible type with the hope
that they will be stimulated to pursue
their education beyond the college level."
i
The students are permitted to select a
research director from the University's
staff, and are assigned, in general, to a
problem which can reasonably be ex-
pected to be completed within ten weeks,
the duration of the program. In addition,
they attend conferences and seminars
in each student's field of interest. The
students are paid for their services on an
hourly basis, with tuition and fees re-
mitted by the University.

AFRICAN STUDENTS ELECT
LA SALLE SENIOR
George K. Dunye, of Liberia, and now
a member of the Class of '60 at La Salle
College, was elected president of the All-
African Student's Union of Greater
Philadelphia for the 1959-60 academic
year, at a recent Union meeting.
George K. Dunye
Dunye is majoring in finance at LaSalle under a grant-in-aid from the Li-
berian government. He has been vice-
chairman of the Union's publicity com-
mittee since 1956 and, in 1958, he founded
the Liberian Student's Association of
Philadelphia, and was elected its presi-
dent. He remains vice-president of the
latter. At La Salle, he is a member of
the International Relations Club, and has
been a member of the soccer team for the
past two seasons.
Dunye, who recently married an Amer-
ican girl, the former Edith I. Hamilton,
was graduated from St. Patrick's High
School, Liberia, in 1952, and, the follow-
ing year, flew to the U. S. at the invita-
tion of the American government. During
this visit, he worked at the U. S. Census
Bureau, and found time to visit NewYork, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh, whei-e
he toured the offices of IBM, Remington
Rand, the United Nations, and U. S.
Steel. He returned to Africa after six
months, with hopes and plans for fur-
thering his education in this country.
His dreams materialized when he again
crossed the Atlantic in 1956 to enroll
at La Salle, under the sponsorship of the
Institute of African-American Relations
and the Liberian government.
SAMUEL REGALBUTO MEMORIALSCHOLARSHIP ESTABLISHED
The Samuel Regalbuto Memorial
Scholarship, for four years of study at
La Salle College, was recently estab-
lished by Mrs. Florence Regalbuto,
widow of the former Commissioner of
Public Property in Philadelphia.
The full-tuition scholarship, provided
by a trust fund established by Mrs.
Regalbuto in memory of her husband,
will be awarded to the young man who
meets all academic requirements of the
College, while manifesting financial need.
It will be renewable annually to the
initial winners.
Mr. Regalbuto was born in Sicily,
where he began a career in pharmacy
which he continued briefly upon his ar-
rival here. Soon after, however, he es-
tablished the Western Flour Companyof Pennsylvania and of Trenton, NewJersey, to which over 35 years of his life
were devoted.
A veteran of the first world war, Mr.
Regalbuto was cited for his charitable
works by the late Pope Pius XII in
1952, and was awared the Star of Fi-
delity by the Italian government in 1955.
He was executive vice-president of the
Philadelphia Grand Opera Company, a
member of the American Legion, the
Variety Club of Philadelphia, the Penn
A.C., and the City Businessman's Club.
GROUND BROKEN FOR NEWLA SALLE HIGH
Brother Daniel Bernian, F.S.C., Presi-
of La Salle College, and Brother E.
Francis, F.S.C., Principal of La Salle
College High School, officiated at ground-
breaking ceremonies July 7 for the newLa Salle High, for which a $2.3 million
contract was awarded to James J. Clear-
kin, Inc.
Construction plans are set for oc-
cupancy in the Fall, 1960.
The new high school, which will be
erected at Cheltenham Avenue and Paper
Mill Road, Springfield Township, Mont-
gomery County, represents the third
major phase in the ten million dollar
Centenary expansion program at La Salle
College. Two other building are nowunder construction on the Olney Avenuecampus: a Student Union, scheduled to
open this September, and a Science
Building, set to open in 1960.
Construction of the new high school
on the 76-acre site, formerly the "Bel-
croft" estate of Clarence E. Brown, will
permit the College to utilize the present
high school building — now on the Col-
lege campus— to help accommodate its
expanding enrollment.
John L. McCloskey, left. Assistant to the President of the College, welconnes his successor as
Director of Alumni, Joseph L, HHanley, who also became editor of "La Salle" magazine. John A.
Guischard, Ph.D., right. Alumni president and chairman of the modern language department, also
greeted the new administrator and editor.
Designed by the architectural firm of
Nolen and Swinburne, with Mr. Victor
Kush in charge and Brothers E. Francis,
F.S.C., and David Albert, F.S.C., as con-
sultants, the new high school will be
one of the most modern of its kind in the
Philadelphia area. Planned to accommo-
date a minimum of 800 boys, with pro-
visions for future expansion, the edifice
will be of reinforced concrete and steel
construction. The exterior facing will be
of brick, glass, and metal curtain walls.
Brother Francis, principal of the high
school, said that the new structure will
include a three-story academic wing,
housing 32 classrooms and laboratories.
It will be separated from the huge audi-
torium and gymnasium areas by a low,
one-story air-conditioned administration
building and library, housing some 20,000
volumes. Both the administrative and
library units will face on interior, land-
scaped courts.
Cafeteria, kitchen, band room and me-
chanical services, will be under the audi-
torium and gymnasium, and will lead out
into a separate exterior recreation area,
which is partially covered to provide
sheltered areas during inclement weather.
Features of the new building will in-
clude exterior sunshades, and grey, heat-
absorbing glass, to reduce glare and heat
in all classrooms with southern exposure.
The gymnasium will be entirely top-
lighted, and corridors and stairways will
be located so that there will be no cross-
traflic of students even during heavy
peak-loads at lunch hour.
The fine, old "Belcroft" mansion on the
estate, will be altered and enlarged to
provide a complete faculty residence for
32 Brothers. A new chapel, to be shared
by the Brothers and students, will be-
come one of the new wings of the man-sion. Other structures on the property,
such as the carriage house, will be moved
and used for athletic storage after the
planned construction of complete outdoor
athletic facilities. Varsity football will
be played at 20th Street and Olney Ave-
nue until the new stadium is erected.
PH.T. DEGREESWives of 165 La Salle College seniors
received the Ph.T.— Putting HimThrough— degree at the College's sixth
annual Ph.T. program, on May 31 in
the College Auditorium.
Alphonse H. Clemens, Ph.D., Director
of the Marriage Counseling Center,
Catholic University of America, delivered
the commencement address. Mrs. Eliza-
beth A. Halpin, wife of Charles A. J.
Halpin, a 1948 graduate of La Salle, and
a member of the faculty, received a
special degree at the ceremonies. Mrs.
Halpin, mother of eight children, will be
honored for her outstanding role as wife
and mother.
The Ph.T. degrees were conferred by
Brother Daniel Bernian, F.S.C., Ph.D.,
president of the College.

PRESIDENT'S PAGE(Continued from page 3)
lege, with the assistance of his asso-
ciates, is responsibile for diverse func-
tions that make up this area. This diver-
sity he coordinates as the head business
officer of the institution. He is responsi-
ble for the College's financial accounting,
the preparation of the annual budget
and the financial reports, the collection of
revenues, the expenditure of institutional
funds, the management of the business
phases of auxiliary enterprises, the
planning for financing new building con-
struction, and the care of the physical
properties of the College. The admin-
istrator of this third estate is Dr. Joseph
Sprissler, D.C.S., former Director of the
Evening School and assistant professor
of business law and accounting.
Public and College Relations
Today a new area of administration in
higher education is developing which
merits recognition. There is a trend to-
ward coordination of the functions of
public relations, alumni affairs, and the
solicitation of funds for development.
This new area of administration is nowrecognized as a single entity in manycolleges. Although it is the most recent
of the Four Estates, its components will
become more and more important as the
college continues to develop and prosper.
The recognition of this new area in ad-
ministration grew out of the realization
that these activities have much in
common.At La Salle College, the Assistant to
the President (an unhappy designation
that gives a man a "staff" title for a
"line" responsibility) is responsible, in
cooperation with the different directors
of these areas, for the coordination and
progress of the alumni activities, the
work of the placement bureau, publicity,
public relations, and the fund-raising
for the development program. The As-
sistant to the President is John L. Mc-
Closkey, M.B.A., former Director of the
Alumni Association and assistant pi-o-
fessor of marketing.
Conclusion
The president of a college or university
receives a broad delegation of power and
responsibility for the operation of the
institution in all its phases. He, in turn,
delegates responsibility for broad areas
of administration to worthy men, retain-
ing for himself the primary responsi-
bility for unified and executive direction.
We all know that it is the president whomakes reports to the Board of Mana-gers; it is the president who gets quoted
in times of crisis, who announces the
progress and the new things that are
for the glory of the institution, and whosays the very appropriate words whenthe special occasion demands them. How-ever, behind all this power and re-
sponsibility and dignity lies a profound
principle enunciated by an astute and
witty man: "When you hire people
HISTORICAL REPORT I
smarter than you are, you prove that
you are smarter than they are." Andas Emerson once wrote: "There is no
limit to what can be accomplished if it
doesn't matter who gets the credit." For
La Salle, there is no limit to what can be
accomplished.
Brother Teliow, F.S.C., Founder of La Salle College
by Bernard H. Moss, D D.S., '26
The first community of the Brothers of
the Christian Schools in Philadelphia,
was established August 22, 1853, with
Brother Adelbert, F.S.C., as its first
Brother Dii-ector, and the classrooms of
the Assumption B.V.M. and St. Peter's
parishes for their initial classes. TheBrothers first settled in the former par-
ish, and later resided in St. Peter's at
Fifth Street and Girard Avenue.
In 1854, Brother Teliow, F.S.C., wasappointed Director of the Community,succeeding Brother Adelbert. Brother
Teliow, who came to America and set-
tled in Cincinnati as Bernard Fackledei,
entered the Brother's Novitiate in St.
Louis when 23 years old and received the
habit on June 21, 1851.
Upon assuming the responsibilities of
Brother Director, Brother Teliow strove
to enlarge the scope of the Brothers' ac-
tivities and, in September 1858, St.
Michael's Parochial School was opened
with the assistance and cooperation of
its pastor, Father McLaughlin. During
the vacation period of that year the
Brothers, now numbering six and teach-
ing 500 pupils, moved to St. Michael's.
Classes rapidly expanded under Brother
Teliow and, upon the opening of St.
Ann's School in 1859, he was Director of
17 Brothers and three schools, St. Peter's,
St. Michael's, and St. Ann's; the As-
sumption B.V.M. was relinquished. In
addition, in 1862, the Christian Brothers'
Academy was opened as a high school,
attached to St. Michael's, at 1419 N.
Second Street.
Deeply impressed by the sanctity and
learning of the Brothers, the Most Rev.
J. F. Wood, then Archbishop of Phila-
delphia, urged them to seek a charter for
the new high school and for a college, a
teaching level on which the Brothers
were to engage "at once." This aim wasrealized in 1863, when Brother Teliow
successfully applied to the legislature of
the Commonwealth for a charter for
"La Salle College in the City of Phila-
delphia."
Shortly after receiving the charter,
Brother Teliow was appointed Rector of
the New York Catholic Protectory, in
September, 1863. In 1870, he was invited
by the government of Ecuador to be con-
sultant on the establishment of training
schools for boys.
By now internationally recognized as
an authority on education and child wel-
fare. Brother Teliow was next summonedto France, and later assigned to Cali-
fornia. In 1879, he was in charge of St.
Mary's Training School, Feehanville, 111.,
and in 1884 he was assigned to St.
Joseph's Industrial School, Glencoe, 111.
His last post, before his death on Septem-
ber 21, 1900, was the directorship of St.
Francis de Sales Industrial School, Ed-
dington. Pa.
At the request of the New YorkCatholic Protectory's Board of Managers,Brother Teliow was laid to rest in the
cemetery adjacent to St. Raymond'sChurch, Westchester, N. Y., with his
faithful co-worker. Dr. Ives, founder of
the New York Protectory.
CARILLON HONORS POPE50 Bells at La Salle College in
Memory of Late Pius XII
reprinted from the
New York Times, June 9, 1959
PHILADELPHIA (RNS)—
A
new set of bells rings out over
Philadelphia in memory of PopePius XII.
From the hilltop campus of LaSalle College, twelve miles fromthe city center, a fifty-bell me-morial carillon that strikes anhourly chime and the Angelus
three times daily, has been installed
at a cost of $7,200. Most of the
money was raised by the students
at the Christian Brothers' college.
Voting to have "one of the best
systems possible" to honor the late
Pontiff, the students chose a caril-
lon similar to one displayed at the
Brussels World Fair.

FRIENDS OF LA SALLE
La Salle College earnestly solicits the interest andsupport of friends to bring to a complete realization
the goals of the development program which will en-
able La Salle to render greater service to the youth
of our nation and, particularly, the youth of the City
of Philadelphia. There are a number of reasons whyLa Salle College is worthy of this interest and sup-
port from Industry, Corporations, and individuals.
The following are foremost among them
:
1. Ninety percent of the student body, now num-bering nearly four thousand, are from the city
of Philadelphia and its environs. La Salle Col-
lege is a Philadelphia college, in the city, and of
the city. A recent survey of the alumni reveals
that almost all of the graduates of the College
remain in this metropolitan area.
2. The College, in a practical and effective manner,is seriously concerned about making available
to young men of modest financial resources
—
men whose potential can be of great usefulness
because of a college education—an opportunity
to secure this education. Tuition fees at LaSalle College have been traditionally modest.
Student aid averages over $120,000 each year.
This amount is many times over the averageamount of assistance given annually by a col-
lege of similar size and character.
3. The College, in existence close to one hundredyears, has been preparing professional men,doctors, dentists, teachers, lawyers, account-
ants, etc., who have been serving metropolitanPhiladelphia.
4. Requiring military instruction of all physically
able students through the Reserve Officers
Training Program, La Salle is sharing fully in
the national effort to prepare youth to assumeits rightful responsibilities in our democracy.
5. La Salle College is rendering a large measure of
service to industry and business by providing,
in the Evening Division program, an opportun-
ity for men gainfully employed to secure a col-
lege education and in this way to prepare themto give a better and more efficient service to
their employers.
6. By giving her students an education based onsound Christian principles which respect the
dignity of the human person and human society.
La Salle College is making a real and substan-tial contribution to the preservation of ourcherished American birthright of freedom in a
democracy.
