The organization is made up of athletes who have won a letter for participating in intercollegiate sports. Its purpose is to unity te athletes for each sport in an established organization.

The Block Society took pride in performing services for the school; these included ushering at Masses, ball games, running tournaments and intramural programs, and helping in other University activities. Among the social activities, the Block Club sponsored a dinner-dance in the Fall, after game mixers, an athletic award dinner and smoker, intra-club games, and parties. This year. under the direction of officers John O'Neil, George Jercich, Ed Lettunich, Tom Malloy, and Bob Boyle, it has been able to take part in more activities and in Ine future hopes to continue to be one or the outstanding clubs on campus (TheDon).

The Frosh tried to close the gap, but the clock and George Jercich's one-handed push were too much.
