FatherHaringStresses HopeAndInvolvemen

S'ingers' Noel Concert Highlights .Festivities The foyer of the Mansion was the setting for the climax· of the Christmas Festivities, on December / 3, with the Glee Club's annual Christmas concert... Dr. Suppa conducted the entire ensemble in "The Song of Christmas." Dr. Rose B. Green served as narrator. Solo parts were performed by Cookie Barbacane, Claire Hauserman, Carol Lucas, and Flossy Ruggiano. The Madrigalists then performed "fesus Bambino." "Pat-a-Pam," "I heard the Bells on Christmas Day," and "The Little Donkey."

The first honors convocation of the year, November 13th, featured an address by Bernard Haring, C.S.S.R., noted theologian, who spoke on "The Christian Hope and Social Involvement."

According to Father Haring, love of God and love of neighbor grow simultaneously, "The more we are dedicated to our brethren in the dght manner, the closer we come to God." The perfect example of involvment, claimed the speaker, is Jesus Christ who actively shared in the common life with His ;people.

Jonsey Returns:

PleaForMaiority Rule Several weeks ago the Student Government Association called a general meeting. The notice was posted for several days and the time chosen was 8 A.M. in order to accommodate more students.It seemed to be generally known that many important matters were to be discus sed. The meeting was held - minus many students. One of the crucial issues was the proposed smoker renovation of the Sacred Heart Hall. A few objections were brought up, but the motion passed thus assessing each student a dollar and a half. A month and a half later, the work has been started and no more than a third of th "e student body has paid. Perhaps there are still objections to the plan but the fact of the matter is that it was passed and each student is responsible for her share. We claim that the democratic process is the best and that the majority rule is what we want. How democratic are we if we don't support a measure, once it is passed? The money is going to have to come from you. If other improvements are going to be made by the students in the future, more cooperation should be displayed now. Some wish to break this into a day hop, resident split. Perhaps that is the saddest outcome of the entire issue. On any weekday, one can walk into the smoker and see groups of residents as well as day hops around the room. With Christmas upon us, this is a bad time to start pestering for money . However, the vacation is long and a little saving is not impossible. When you get the chance, please approach your day student or resident representative with a "Happy New Year" and a dollar fifty.

On coming down for a closer look at Cabrini , I noticed quite a few more changes. Mansion dwellers have finally learned the art of interior design. The rugs now don the floors, instead of the walls. An empty office in the mansion makes the absence of a dear friend and helper very obvious. Especially now, in this holiday season, is the full effect of Mother Ursula's resignation felt.

It has been suggested that the usual site of the parties be changed from the hallway of fane Se}ranek's room, since fane gets sick from the smell of fish. Residents of the Mansion have been occupying their time with a new hobby - rock collecting. I heard about the feast day f estivities for Sisters Andrew and lmmaculata.

One of the new organizations on campus thfs year is the social action group known as Encounter. The aim of the group is to fill the biggest need in the world today-the need for people who will become involved letting others know that they care. In keeepin ,g with this purpose, the girls have established a few programs in the area. One day a week finds some of the members visiting the children at St. Edmond's Home for Crippled Children in Rosemont . The girls visit with the children and help in directing them in their homework.

Replacement by Susan Murray There's been death at Cabrini, but no one says a word. The long departed victim's name is never even mentioned. The ev,idence has been covered up well; you would never gue ss she's ever been here. Sports are quiet, dances unattended, and most of our activities are disappearing fast. Soneone has taken h er place; the disappearance goes unnoticed. The replacement seems to have been given a permanent golden locker at Cabrini; her name Js "self ." So here's a cheer to "self", the ones who stay away from school except for classes, the ones who feel that ever-lastin' "self" is the new goddess on campus.

Barbara Regards Sports As Essential to Development After seeing Barbara Schneider's lithe figure on .the <basketball court, one would imagine the game must have been designed especially for her. Actually, it comes as quite a surprise when it is discovered that Bal'bara never eng 'a,ged in •basketball while in high school. Barbara smiled as she said, "The only reason that I ibegan a basketball career was that a cry went up for a tall guard and it seems I fit the bill." Barbara has been ,a member of ithe Cabrini varsity for three years. Barbara who is also our very pretty and competent S.G.A. vicepresident, stressed ihe fact that whether we win or lose, it's the way we play the game thatcounts. Banb hopes that many people will take an active interest in the games this season. It is not important whether or not you are out on the court actually playing. Spirit can be just as hi<gh in the stands. So she urges everyone to come and cheer.
