A specialist in African History, Dr. Wiedner's topic will be "Biafra: Dilemma of African Independence."

Universities. In a short speech after the awards were presented, Sr. Barbara pointed to several "serious matters" of direct concern for Cabrini College s.tudents. Her main conjecture was an woemphasis on responsiole manh9od. Students, she said, should be picking up the burden of an education themselves. Some students, she added, were not reaching high enough. A major illustration pointed to was use of non-class time. Those students who have four or even ,three days of classes were reminded that such out-of-class time should not be looked on as "free days" but as an opportunity for independent study. Sister Barbara also called attention to student "discipline from within." This she connected with the common Cabrini fault of procrastination, especially concerning term paper deadlines. Sister said she advocated an F grade for any paper handed in late .

of such great current interest as Biafra." Dr. Benjamin also cited Wiedner as a popular speaker who leads a global life. The convocation is scheduled to begin at 12 noon. Donald Wiedner is a 1958 Ph.D. graduate from Harvard University. He spent his undergraduate days at Colgate University. Dr . Wiedner's book, A History of Africa South of the Sahara is on the reading list for the Afro-American history course offered at Cabrini. Dr. Wiedner also contributes to professional journals and is editor of the Bulletin of African Studies in
Canada. His book on Africa has been published in the U .S., in England and in France. Wiedner is competent in German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Afrikaans. He is presently working on two books, A History of the Commonwealth of Nations and Economic History of West Africa. He has also been doing research in currency and accounting in modern Europe and overseas. Dr. Benjamin has invited the Cabrini history majors to have lunch with Dr. Wiedner before the convocation.

College Library Houses A Tremure in Tomes by Stephanie Perez Unknown to many of the students here, Cabrini's library is endowed with an as.sortm~nt of rare, and very old books, many of which are in surprisingly good condition. Their origin, however, still remains a mystery, but, according to Mrs. Carolyn Gough, the head librarian, they were probably donated to the Library when the school first begun. The two oldest books were printed in the latter part of the 1500's. One, dated 1586 and written in Italian, seems to be a commentary on some parts of Scripture. The other, printed in 1589 and written in Latin is roughly entitled, Contempt for the Vanity of the World. Both of these books are bound in vellum, which is the unsplit skin of a calf or lamb. This type of leather is fine-grained, light beige in color, and has a smooth, waxy texture. They are
both hand sewn and printed on hand-made paper. This paper appears to be somewhat delicate, but upon examination is really quite strong. It was hoped that these rare books might be of value to Cabrini, due to their antiquity. But, after some investigation, it was learned that they were printed after the incunabula, or rare book period, which lasted only up until 1501, thereby making these books comparatively worthless in that respect. Although the two books previously mentioned are the oldest in the collection, there are many others which are just as fascinating. One very large book printed in 1721 and entitled, Antiquity explained and Represented in Sculptures, is part of a series of volumes bound in heavy brown leather and held together by pieces of rope. This book contains infor(Continued on Page 5)

Intellectualism andEducation VersusViolence Black College Strives DETROIT, Mich . (CPS)Ozell Bonds walked into Room 2 of the Wayne State University Education Building looking much like any other student. But instead of heading for -a seat, he strode up ,to the podium and put down his lecture notes. Dressed in levis, turtleneck, socks and tennis shoes, all black, he looked down through his sunglasses at a classroom full of education school professors-men and women more than twice his age. Ozells lecture was one of several being offered by members of the Wayne Association of Black Students in a course on "Black Social Thought" for Education faculty members . It is all part of a burgeoning, yet peaceful, black movement on campus just a few blocks from the 12th Street ghetto where the 1967 Detroit riots began. Black students at Wayne are busy mapping a new black college that will offer a full four-year curriculum as well as courses for students and faculty from other departments . The Wayne developments, which are moving ahead with moral and financial support from ,the campus administration have turned many conventional educational concepts inside out . Perhaps most important is the idea that students have as much, if not more, to contribute to the educational process than teachers. Not only can s,tudents skillfully organize new curriculum by .themselves-they can also teach it impressively . Lonnie Davis, head of the ABS at Wayne, points out that the syllabus for the "Black Social Thought" course offered a reading list of 45 books. They have stimulating twohour weekly sessions on topics like "Who is the Black Man," 'Who is the White Man to Us,"

"Black Music," and "Third World Revolution ." A discussion of "White Woman, Black Man" was so provocative that it was carried over to a second session , In one of Ozell's recent lectures he offered a terse 25minu te lecture on the relationship of slavery to present-day conditions in the South. "The black man served in the house during slavery so he had frequent personal contact with whites. That's part of why the southerner today can associate with the black as long as he stays in his place ." After the lecture ended, one teacher launched into a lengthy argument with Ozell about the use of violence in the presentday civil rights struggle: "I see all your aggression and racism as defensive violence. I see it as an assertion of your humanity, pushing off the oppressor instead of using a direct hit . But .the problem with using all these threats in that you are scaring away many whites who might otherwise rally to your side." Ozell replied : 'I come here to attack you verbally with words ~to call you racist honkies. People who react with fear are too stupid to see the truth, because if we were going to hurt you we would come with guns . Our function is to make the whites move into action to join with us to help civilize a barbaric country ." In the end the teacher plead ed Uncle : "It 's really the white man's job to change white racist attitudes-not the black's ." The ABS is currently planning_ to open its Black College in September. The group has already won $34,000 from the Catholic Church and is working on the Ford foundation for an additional grant. "We hope to bring in top black teachers from around the country to help staff our college," says Lonnie Peaks, who is studying for a master degree in Community Organization. A four-year program will let students work toward a degree in black studies . "This makes sense-after all , Wayne is really our campus. It was built right out of the ghetto," says Peaks. Students from other departments will be encouraged to

enroll in Black College courses. Already the economics, social work, and education faculty have tentati:vely agreed to push the black courses. "We think courses on black culture will be a real asset to future teachers working in the ghetto," says Peaks. So far the administration has been cooperative in working one of our proposals," says Peak, "We just say, 'N9w look, you guys just had a riot here and none of us wants a new one, do we?"

Wilkins Advocates Study NEW YORK (CPS)-While at least five major campuses black student protests raged on this week, with no end in sight, the militants received a slap in the face from a black leader, Roy Wilkins of .the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Wilkins, who was known to disagree with black student militants on the issues of separatism and "black power," and is considered an "Uncle Tom" by many for his views and his acceptance of the White Establishment, said Monday (Jan. 13) he is strongly opposed to all-black studies departments and all-black dormitories on college campuses. He said the NAACP will take to court, if necessary, black students' demands for departments autonomously controlled by black and dormitories where white students are not est . See you all on Broadway. Most sincerely, Barbara Murphy Evening Bulletin Reporter
allowed. He said such departments and housing, which are being demanded on many campuses by militants, are "simply another version of segregation and Jim Crow." Wilkins said he and the NAACP's lawyers were sure such departments and such allblack control would be found unconstitutional by the courts. He said he considers it illegal "to use public tax funds to set up segregated facilities,' under the same laws that found segregation by whites illegal in 1954 and said schools which provide separate facilities are inherently unequal. Of the black militant students who have seen in the forefront of this season's campus agitation, Wilkins said, "They ought to be in the library studying degree, so they could to get do some good." He said, "It would be suicidal for a 'small minority' like black people to start talking about separatism and apartheid. We have suffered too much fighting the evil of racial segregation."

by Geri Siciliano What's the word in coat fashion this winter? FUR! FUR! FUR! Old or new-it doesn't matter. Muskrat, fox, raccoon, rabbit, etc.-it doesn't matter. Jacket length or full lengthit doesn't matter. They're all making the scene and look really great on everyone. The fur trend has hit New York City full force. All the larger department stores are selling them, both old and new, with prices starting at $65 for ,the old and rising, rising, rising! Almost every young girl you pass on a New York street is garbed in fur. Have you checked that old dusty trunk sitting in your attic? Some of the greatest-looking furs are found .there. Yes, believe it or not, that old fur coat of Mom's that everyone thought had seen its days is seeing them all over again. If Mom just happened to throw hers out in the last spring cleaning, start saving your pennies now because although fur coats will hibernate in the summertime, they will be greeting us again next winter with greater en.thusiam and greater quantity.
by Jeanne Wilson The time is rapidly approaching when many seniors will have .to make one of the very important decisions of their lives-the decision about which institute of graduate studies to attend. In this article I hope to clarify some of .the all-important questions regarding entrance. Instead of addressing the seniors, perhaps I should speak to the juniors, since it is in this year that the plans for continuing toward a Masters Degree should be initiated. In a sense it will be a repetition of the college entrance tasks: writing to various schools, requesting catalogues, and taking, if required, the graduate record exams. Although some schools do not require graduate record exams, it is usually wise to take them. Some schools regard a B.A. or a B.S. sufficient for entrance. In any case, maintenance of a 'B' average in your

major is important. In speaking with those who have attended graduate school I have found tha.t although no definite courses have been declared requirements, various majors have co-ordinating courses surrounding their strict concentrations which are very useful. Psychology majors, for example, may find that related science courses are beneficial in giving them a well-rounded outlook. History majors may find a course in historiography beneficial. A wise step for anyone considering the prospects of grad-
uate school is consultation with the head of your department. Since we have such personal contact with our teachers here at Cabrini, they get .to know us as people and not just as "numbers." They may be able to suggest a school that will fit not only our academic acumen, but also our personality. Some of the more prominent graduate schools in .this area include the University of Pennslyvania, Pennsylvania State University, Haverford College, Temple University, Bryn Mawr College, and Villanova University.
Zajacek Art Duplayed For Senior Week Exhibit The works of artist George Paul Zajacek were featured by the senior class at a week-long exhibit in Holy Spirit Library, January 20-24 in coordination with the Class of 69's Senior Week activities. The collection consisted mainly of landscapes, in both watercolors and oils. A native of Bethlehem, Pa., Mr. Zajacek is a graduate architect of Okiahoma State University . He also studied under John Rex Cunningham and Dwight D. Stevens of the International Watercolor Association His works have previously been exhibited at the Oklahoma State University Art Center and at galleries in Bethlehem. Mr. Zajacek, an architect by profession, was involved in designing the roof structures for the Astrodome in Houston. Mr. Zajacek was present at the opening day of the exhibit. He . expressed and equal enjoyment between his painting and his architectural work. The artist believes that the objects that he paints are a projection of his own philosophy. He describes his style as "abstract without much detail." Because of the limited time
he has to devote to painting, the artist prefers watercolors which require less preparation than oils. Presently he is experimenting with watercolors, oils and Elmer's glue, as well as plaster with watercolors.

Indoor Sport Beckons; Are You a Star Player? This year Americans have a new indoor sport to supplement their armchair quarterbacking of professional football. The sport is called "What's Wrong With Those People" and it can be played in the comfort and safety of It is gaining wide acceptance and your own livingroom. may soon rival jogging as the suburban "in-group" activity. . The rul es are simple. First you decide whom you will select as "those people" and then you begin an active discussion of what's wrong with them. There are many categoies from which "those people" can be selected. The current favorites are ghetto troublemakers, student revolutionaries, socio-economic drop-outs, peacenicks, yippies, hippies, and demonstrators of every genus and species. The sport con sists of firmly establish ing that your views are truly right and just, that all dissenting views are born of ignorance, malice, or yearning for anarchy. Then you begin a lively dicussion of "What's Wrong With Those People" which ends in a warm glow of camaraderie shar ed by those secure in the belief that they are the chosen people. They never seem to say whom they were allegedly chosen by or what they were chosen to do. But no one is impolite enough to ask questions like that because they tend to spoil the game and ~?u.ld eve1;- get one put into the category of "those people 1f earned too far. This game has all the warmth and appeal of a lynching. But it can be put to some use . Let's reverse the game and see what "those People" say and think about the "chosen ones" who have become such avid devotees of this all to popular sport . Individuals lumped into the category of "those people" refer to the "chosen ones" in ritualistic terms such as "the establishment ' "the power structure," "fat cats" and many others. 'They say much of the same things about the "chosen ones" that have been said about them. For example, they say that the "chosen ones" i:re. immoral, hypocritical. self-centered, not t~uly Christians, anti~Communist s, anarchi st s and apath eti c. The "chosen ones" say that "those people" are immoral, hypocritical, self-center ed, not tru_ly Christians, Communist dupes, anarchists and apathetic. What is perhaps more ir onic is that both sides have been playing this game for man )'. years under . the sa:r:ne self-serving rule s, addin g only mrnor chan ge s m termrnology. Wheth er or not you qu alify as a " ~hosen ?ne" or "those people" depends entirely on who 1s defimng the terms. The "chosen ones" say that "those people" are not true Christians because they have only the external trappings of religiosity and feel no real commitment to social justice or human rights. The "cho sen ones" say that "those people" are soft on Communism and are pawns in an international atheistic conspiracy which they are aiding through protesting and demonstrating. "Those people" say that the "chosen ones" have a paronoical fear of Communism and tend to blame the imaginary Communist agitators for viol~nt outbursts which were really caused by the long-standmg socio-eoonomic inequalities. The game go es on and on accomplishing nothing and widening the gap between people who would be capable of meaningful dialogue if they stopped playing games for a while and took the time to really communicate. The time has come to stop playing these foolish semantic games. There is too much at stake to dissipate potentially productive mental energy in nihilistic word games.

Letters to the Editor:
Your Opinionand Comment Editor's note: The Loquitur would like to recognize Mr. Litavec for his contribution to the December issue entitled "Education and You." Mr. Litavec's byline was inadvertently omitted. Our apologies. May we suggest along with Mr. Litavec's article that you read John Goodlad's The Nongraded Elementary School.
The Investigation To the editor: Why do these things always happen in a neat little sterile room, devoid of any feeling but "sincere concern, dear, for you"? But there is more than concern here, there's a feeling of disbelief. I can't believe this is happening to me . I wonder what other people will be here? I told my roommate I don't know what they want me for, they said an investigation. An investigaiton of what though? I haven't done anything to war-
rant being here. She told me something about a rumor but what rumor? I've done a shore of things that I'm not extremely proud of-but nothing this serious. Thank God, they opened a window! Where did it start? More important, why did it start and Where? I'll probably never find the answer to that one. The originators are suckled in the warm safe darkness of the unknown along with their reason for the rumor. My stomach is killing me . I'm not sure whether it's due to being so worried about this thing or to disgust. It's kind of a sickening thought that people who really knew me were content to get sucked into the vacuum of this rumor without any thought to the degree of truth behind it. Ah, that does hurt! Well , I can tell these people my story now. 0 Lord, I hope th ey believe me . 0 no, suppose they don't believe me. That thought never crossed my mind
before. It's my word against theirs, they've accepted their word enough to have this investigation, why should they believe ne now? I wonder how many people have heard the rumor? Even if these investigation people believe me, everyone else will probably go on speculating long afterwards about this and other things. How can I look them in the eye? What will we say to each other? I don't know. I do know I'm innocent, and I hope your are. Think about it! Mil,rgrit Boyle Editor's note: Margrit was a member of the "investigating board." The Loquitur staff wishes to extend its deepest sympathies to Susan Durling, Loquitur news editor, on the death of her father, and to the family and relatives of Guido Carlucci, former library custodian at Cabrini.
Brotherhood = Communisml? By Jane Sefranek THE DEATH OF A NATION By John A. Stormer 184 pages. Liberty Bell . PB. $.75. In Death of a Nation , John Stormer, also the author of the best seller None Dare Call It Treason, writes a book that touches on all phases of the American scene - politics, urban problems, poverty , communism, Vietnam , and above all , theology. It 's a well -doc um en ted book, and Stormer quotes all th e right people , especially Jesus Christ. The first half of the book is sure to be hooted down by the average American reader. The reason is Stormer's uncompromising view that America is infested with Communist sympathizers, and he would include all of us in that category. Among the view s he presents are that the summer riots of 1967 were provoked and helped along by communist agitators, and tax dollars were used to pay them for their efforts ; we should stop all aid to Russia and her satellites; in Vietnam, we should step up the bombing, including destroying any Russia n ships in sight. Stromer was outraged that Sen. Robert Kennedy had told students in 1965 that donating their blood for the communist North Vietnamese would be in "the oldest tradition of this country." All America's problems are linked to communism, he infers. Racial strife, urban turmoil and involvement in "no-win wars" like Korea and Vietnam are all part of communist's plot to conquer the U .S. by destroying our will to resist. But he points out, the most outstanding movement in the destruction of America is the state of our morals, and he even sees this as a communist plan. He quotes from a 1919 communist publication, which says, "corrupt the young; get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial. Destroy their ruggedness." So America's problem is both morality and communism, and Stromer says these are very
closely related. J. Edgar Hoover agrees that the fight against communism is "ecoriomic , social, psychological, diplomatic and strategicbut above all it is spiritual." Chapter 6 is where Stormer really stirs up any reader who thinks he knows what his Christian commitment is . One ft:els strongly the compulsion to shout out , "S ir , you are so strongly an t i-comm unist, an ti Black P ow er , anti-human it y, yo u cannot possibly believe that all men are brothers ." And Stormer retorts right back "Exactly. I do not believe in the brotherhood of man." You can't believe what you're reading. People just don't admit such things. And now he's equating the brotherhood principle with communism . But then it hits you that this man is not a crackpot or a fanatic. He's serious about what he 's been saying about communism and morality, and what's more, he has scriptural quotes to back up his most important statements. Stormer has very deep-set religious reasons for being a Hawk and for wishing to abolish all welfare, socialistic, and "communistic" systems. What is more, his religious convictions are very much a part of America's heritage _ John Stormer is a Fundamentalist. Very handily he explains his religion . 1) Fundamentalists do not believe in the
brotherhood of man. 2) They believe that individuals are saved through an individual religious experience. 3) They believe in literal acceptance of every word of the Bible. Thus Fundamentalists say that lost people and "born-again Christians" (unconverted people vs. those saved through an individual religious experience) cannot be brothers "in Christ." He expla ins this , saying "Jesus di stingui shed between bornagain Christians and the unconverted, of whom He said 'ye are of your father the devil.' and 'be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers."' Th e p roblem boils down to what a religion believes is the nature of man. For man's nature can be seen either as basically selfish and sinful, or as inherently good. Tying .this in with the material of the first half of Stormer's book, a person's view of the nature of man will affect his position on the Constitution, free enterprise, communism, socialism, capital punishment, slum clearance and urban renewal, and almost any o,ther political, social, or economic problem. Fundamentalists say that man is sinful and needs to be curbed. Most other religions (Stormer says all other) teach that man is basically good because he is able to become like God. This is accomplished through self(Continued on Page 5)

MusicToday:TheWordIs Synthesis
by Cathy Murphy February 19, Ash Wednesday, marks the beginning of ,Lent. When we were children Lent meant giving up something we liked, or didn't like, such as candy or string beans, or doing something extra such as daily Mass or washing dishes. Now that we are young ladies, Lent should obviously have more meaning. According to Father Rudy, Lent is realizing what living Christianity is. It is a time for a deepening of faith. The Church gives its general guidelines to use in the Lenten Season. Being human and weak we do wrong. In Lent we shouldn't only ask forgiveness for things we didn't do, but realize that there are many things that we can do. Lent should be thought of in a positive way. People should show love and kindness and goodness towards others. However, in Father Rudy's words, if any girls want to deprive herself of certain things, she may, if she becomes a better Christian for it. On Ash Wednesday the student body will participate in a Canon Celebration with the theme, "We have done wrong as a community; we will ask His forgiveness and try to do better in the future." The Ash Wednesday service may also feature general confession. Prior to the beginning of Lent is St. Valentine's Day. Father Rudy has also planned a Valen1tine Eucharist Service to honor the occasion.
B.rotherh'ood Equals (Continued from Page 4) denial and following the teachings and example of a divine teacher-whether that teacher be Jesus, Buddha, Confucius or Mohammed. The Puritan work ethic is also Fundamentalistic. Man is entitled to exactly what he earns, not to what he should have because he is the image or child of God. As an added proof of man's sinful nature, Stormer asks if the young child is taught to misbehave, or if it comes naturally? Therefore, because of man's sinfulness, in the fundamentalist view, not only must the man in poverty suffer the misery connected with poverty, he must work, because work is one of the temporal penalties for sin. See why Stormer does not believe in welfare? As for baptism giving the "born-again" effect, Stormer says water is not sufficient, and not. what Christ intended. The answer to America's problems, in Stormer's estimate, is that not only do Americans have to be moral, they have to embrace Fundamentalism. The result would be one nation under God indivisible. But in this, Stormer is only echoing the thoughts of some very old American ancestors. The early Puritans with their theocratic government were also Funda-
(CPS)-The word is synthesis. IT began about two years ago and the conclusion hasn't been reached. It started as a desire to make the original venture more interesting, and may conclude with the destruction of categories and the creation of a new art form known as MUSIC. Butterfield and the Blues Project had the right idea-try to combine forms of expression presently existing into a new one that will appeal to everyone who liked each of the old. "Rock" and "Blues" and even .the amorphous, maligned "jazz" began moving toward one another-cautiously. Now everybody wants to get into the act; there seems to be a mad rush to fill the gaps with new categories. "Rhythm and blues" suddenly became "soul"; country and western met Robert Zimmerman. "Folk music" discovered Benjamin Franklin's kite. It's turning into a love-in. Rock even has schools now. There's Hendrix and Cream,
and thundering, body-bending amplified SOUND. There's the Ohio Express and Bosstown. Buffalo Springfield (define that one, I dare you). Al Kooperwhat's that? A freaky one-man band that plays better than any other one-man group around. The word. Say the word and you'll be free. The word is synthesis. Synthesis of musical forms. Maybe if we forget about some of these words we might even end up liking some of this stuff. Suppose, just for a minute that music doesn't really depend on categories at all. Suppose the reason Archie Shepp chooses to play differently from Charlie Parker is due solely to the fact that he wants to play differently. Not that he is trying to "synthesize Pop and Avantgarde jazz," but that he is merely attempting some kind of communication different from Parker's. Communication, perhaps. A relationship between human beings. The most perfect form of
relationship-one that transcends the mind and lets you feel rather than think. If there has been any direction in the synthesis of modern music, that direction has been that of intensification of the relationship between performer and audience. Why does the Grateful Dead's new album have a short section that says, "Come on, everybody, get up and dance?" Why does the Jefferson Airplane prefer a hall where there are no seats? Why does Archie Shepp encourage people to move their bodies to his improvisations? In a real sense, dancing helps to create the music of these in response, reaction, spontaneperformers. They are interested ous feeling. They want emotion
able of creating earth tremors. Space in which to breathe was added through jazz-improvisations made it possible to get into things because the things got deeper. Most recently, the range of emotions exploited by country music was opened when Dylan began recording in Nashville. Pathos and protest entered by way of folk music. Rock has expanded to accommodate the desire of its performers for expression. It's happening everywhere. There are no real jazz musicians. In the end there are only human beings trying to make a contact that will pass by the mind and touch the heart. That's what synthesis is all about, brother.
rather than intellect. It isn't surprising , in light of this most recent development, to see that jazz does not reach so many people. Even this generation contrasts sharply with the beats of a few years ~go. The beat trademark was a coffeehouse with TABLES and CHAIRS. The hip landmark is a hall, large enough to hold all the people it can possibly hold, a hall where people dance.
Biology Field Program
A Little of Young Cabrini Editor's note: The following is an excerpt from the Vol. 2, No. I,, November 1960 Loquitur. After the merry throng of departing students subsided last June, another sound took over. The campus echoed all summer with the whirring of machines and the clamor of tools renovatin g Grace Hall. When we returned this semester we - found our habitat unique in such respects as: we now sleep in our day-hop cafeteria, relax and smoke where we used to have glee club concerts, and practice golf in the auditorium. Four girls are sleeping in what was the smoker. mentalists. They allowed no one who taught brotherhood or who downplayed the oible, the Quakers for instance, into their community. Stormer is a reincarnated John Winthrop. Unfortunately, his theocracy has disappeared. Incidently, seen in this light Sen. Kennedy's statement about "oldest American traditions" was indeed false. As most prophets seeking to reform society before it's too late, Stormer believes the end is near. Not .only is the :troublesome American situation proof of this, but Stormer sees the modern brotherhood movements as only bringing about the end. Stormer decries the U.N. because world peace is the setting described in the bible for the coming of the Anti-Christ. Also, he so fundamentally states, Americans would have to pay the bulk qf a world-wide graduated U.N. income tax. Since the Ecumenical Movement and the World Council of Churches are also working on brotherhood, and hence peace, they are also, in Stormer's thinking, preparing the way for the Anti-Christ. Read the book yourself. A book review such as this cannot do justice to a man's theory. You may not agree with John Stormer's remedy for a dying nation, but the book may force you to examine your own moral code and measure your own relationship to God and country.
To others, home is rooms where last year they "glowed" through final exams in history, English, and psychology. Yes, the picture has been changed with all the first floor converted into dormitories since our new building Sacred Heart Hall provides class room space. But it isn't so very difficult to ge t used to . The rooms are more like executive suites than form-er classrooms. They are spacious and beautifully furnished. The scenic view from the English bay windows adds ,to the picture-the lovely new picture of Grace Hall.
College Library (Continued from Page 1) mation on the clothe~ architecture and statues of the ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians. Surprisingly, the copper plate engravings are extraordinarily fine in detail and accuracy. It is obvious that the artist was an expert in this field of studying the Ancients and his drawings support this to note fact. It is interesting that the publishers of this book, Lonson and Watts, are the same people that Benjamin Franklin worked for while he was in London. Another very beautiful book, but one not so old is The Life of the Virgin, printed in 1853. It is bound in soft, brown leather with inlaid gold gilt designs. On the cover is a large gold seal of the Blessed Virgin, while on the side is a lock used to close the book. The only unfortunate thing concerning these books is that at present they cannot be on display for students and visitors at Cabrini. Since many of the books are so delicate, a special room in which the temperature and lighting can be controlled is needed. It is hoped that in the future Cabrini may have such a rarebook room, as do many of the larger colleges and universities. Until such a room can be acquired, Mrs. Gough has invited anyone to browse around her office where these rare and fascinating books are kept.
Jazz, it was once said, became unpopular as soon as people stopped dancing to it. Not precisely ,true, but nonetheless, something (called the intellect) entered into jazz and made it a music to be listenea to and understood. Suddenly everyone was acclaiming Dave Brubeck because "he makes you use your mind." Hendrix make people lose their minds. So kids went to rock as soon as Presley moved his body. And jazz followed. The New Jazz or New Music defied the concepts upon which intellectual jazz was based. It refused .to be limited, to let an artificial structure come between the emotions of the performer and ,the ears of the listener. And Emotion became as important as form. Rock, in its own way, began as an experiment in violence. Violence that was implicitly and explicitly sexual. It quickly absorbed sorrow and fear from blues, and gained incredible potency in the hands of engineers, sound men and amplifiers cap-

The course consists of one hour of regular botany lecture and ,three hours of field work a week. The students have their own textbook entitled The Web of Life. Besides the text and their hour of lecture, the students are left mainly .to uncover ecology at their own rate on the field trips. The field-trips are arranged so that the students p~ogress from the lowest orders of environment to <the more complex, and from inorganic to organic life. Betty Lou Winkler, one of the participants, explains that after each field trip they meet in the Media Center ito tell their instructor what they have found. Their instructor in turn then helps explain and synthesize their findings. Andrea Noble, another of the volunteer students, reported that their field trip instructors would rather that they learned ecology by their own observation than by instruction. Andrea also added that they will be having fieldtrip practicals. The biology depar:tment has stated that if this experimental course works well, 1t will be offered . as a regular college course in ecology.

Basketball Tonight
V-Ball lntramurals Beginning This Week
Team Looks for Victory Over I mmaculata Squad Two teams of light blue and white unif_wms tangle tonight as Cabrini plays host to Immaculata College. Both the varsity and JV teams will be in action as Cabrini tries to overcome archrival Immaculata for the first time in Cabrini's twelve-year history. Cabrini has not played Immaculata at basketball in the last three yeqrs. Coach Mrs. Goodwin reports that the scores were so bad in the past that Immaculata was dropped from .the schedule, The last time the two teams met, in 1966, the score was 61 to 17 in Immaculata's favor. The closest the Radnor varsity ever got was when it lost 49 to 31 in 1964. However, the Cabrini JV does own a 17 to 16 victory over Immaculata from 1963.
Tonight the Cabrini teams will be out working on the first and second of a new string of scores-victories over Immaculta. The varsity contest gets underway at 7 and JV game will follow immediately . Mrs . Goodwin's girls know what they're up against tonight. Immaculata's gym burned down last year, but the girls practice at their campus's novitiate building. It's been reported that team is good, the Immaculata but far from unbeatable. To combat the visitor's expected height advantage, the Cabrini varsity has experience as well as a home court advantage. When the schedule was arranged for this season, Immaculata was added to replace the University of Pennsylvania. At this time the Swarthmore game was also added. Cabrini has never played Swarthmore College before. That game is set for this Thursday afternoon at 4:30 and it will also be played on the Cabrini home court .
Hoopsters Shot Down On Muhlen berg Court "It was like playing basketball in a crackerjack box, with the crackerjack still in it, and we were the peanuts." This is how the players described Muhlenberg College's 24 x75 ft. well-obstructed gym. The Cabrini home court by con trast measures about 50x100 ft. Add to this description tall opposing guards with long arms, and the result can be a 45 to 28 loss. On Monday , February 3, this was the story . The Cabrini Varsity was literally boxed in. When a Blue and White player managed to shake off a guard for a shot, the basket rim rejected th e ball. The same didn't hold true for home team Mules who fast-breaked (if that's possible in a box) the Cabrini defense to a formidable 24 to 6 first half. The visiting varsity had a much-improved second half, actually _ outscoring the victors, but by this time the Mules' coach was substituting freely . Cabrini foul shooting didn't help the cause much , the Blue and White hitting on only 6 of 19 tries from the charity line. Bonnie McCauley was credited with four of the six, while Jane Sefranek led all the lcorers with a total of twelve points for the night . Muhlenberg will have to play on the Cabrini home court next year.

HolyFamily 34-22 Whenever Holy Family College and Cabrini meet to play basketball, the result has usually been a close, evenly-matched contest. For the past two years, Holy Family had been the victor by the slim margin of five points. Last year it took an overtime for Holy family to claim victory.

Blue &White Beat P .C.B.;. First Dual Win of Season Cabrini's first home basketball game of the season, last Thur sday evening against the girls from Philadelphia College of the Bible, can hardly be calculated to lose any fans for the Blue and White when they play at home the rest of the season. Cabrini basketball fans like victory. They also like exciting games where the lead changes hands often. The P.C.B. thriller gave ,the fans, . about one hundred of them, what they like most. In fact, the Cabrini team did the trick twice, winning both the varsity and JV games that night . In both cases, P.C.B. jumped out to an early lead. In the varsity contest , the Bible girls were winning at the end of the fir st quarter, but Cabrini pulled ahead in the second period to tak e a 22 to 16 halftime lead . P .C.B fought back determinately, and the third quarter ended in a 28 to 28 tie. The lead didn't belong to either team for much time tied, Cabrini by two, tied, Cabrini by one, P,C.B. by one , Cabrini by one. With five minutes to go and a one point lead, the Blue and White called for a slowdown, willing to freeze the ball while looking for each crucial basket.

Volleyball intramurals, postponed while the gym was being resurfaced and during rehearsal week for "Wake Up Man and Live," will be resumed this week. The games will be scheduled for those nights when the basketball team is inactive. Usually two games are scheduled for each night after dinner, the first match starting at 6:15 and the second around 6:30. Because it turned out to successful last year, teams arranged according to dorm sections will be used this year · again. Each team plays a minimum of two games in the doubleelimination tournam ·ent. Players are asked to watch the downstairs bulletin board in Sacred Heart Hall for the dates and times when they play. Joan Radano, A.A. officer, is in charge of this year's program. Every player on the championship team will receive a small personal trophy from the Athletic Association.

The cheering hopefuls were judged on their coordination, spirit, ability and voice. This was done on a four point basis. The girls were asked to exeecute any cheer along with any individual skills they wished to demonstrate. The judges announced that the members of the 1969 Varsity will be the senior Judy Sherknis, captain, juniors Mary
Cavanaugh, Renee Devine, Gina DePaolis and Terry Warner, and sophomores Toni ·Guerra, Suzanne Horn Rayette Marcotte, Linda Muhlenhaupt and Jean Wilson. The 1969 Junior Varsity will be captained by the sophomore Barbara Frey. This year's squad will include soph Ellyn Holleran, and freshmen Miki Dalton, Karen Mangin, Jeanne Votral and Michelle Waldron. This year is the Varsity's turn to make their debut in new uniforms. The new cheering outfit is a navy blue vest and culotte skirt. It is worn with a white blouse an d sa ddle shoes.
