Both Mary and Pat were unopposed. The officers will be sworn in at a general SGA convocation at noon on April 21. Their terms of office will run from April until next January. Election of class officers will take place within the few remaining weeks after the Easter vacation.

College DaySetForApril20 The Student Goverment Association is sponsoring a "College Day" to be held Sunday, April 20, 1969, from two until five P.M. The College Day Committee is headed by Suzanne Horn, and Margaret Hopkins is assisting as co-chairman. There will be an open house, with guided tours of the campus, departmental displays for general information, opportunities to speak with the heads of the Cabrini departments, and refreshments to be served in the Mansion to culminate the event. Departmental displays will
be located in the classrooms in Sacred Heart Hall. The various clubs will also arrange displays to give prospective students an idea of what Cabrini social and extracurricular activities involve. The Athletic Association is holding an Alumnae basketball game at two P.M. in the gym, and the International Club will have open house in Jablonski and set up exhibits in Grace Hall's Blue Room. The Biology Club will set up lab demonstrations in the Biology Lab and the Philosophy Club plans a display in the Philosophy Office. Other clubs at Cabrini are al-

======-= :.11 .....H.__. ... -FF For some time now the class of 1969 has been looking for an effective means to further the progress of Cabrini College. When Mr. Federico joined our administration, members of the senior class asked him for his ideas. Mr. Federico stressed the importance of a development program. No college or university can exist exclusively on funds acquired through students' tuition. Schools which are lar-
ger or older than Cabrini have solved this problem through endowments from private as well as public benefactors. When outside organizations consider contributing to a school, the support of the alumnae and the parents of the students is investigated as a means to gauge an appropriate sum for donation. Mr. Federico emphasized the value of financial support begun from within the student community. The public relations value is as attractive as are the financial advantages to the school. A pledge drive initiated by the students demonstrates a method by which an individual may take an active part in positive improvements for her scpool. The idea of a pledge drive, handled through personal solicitation has been adopted. After canvassing the members of the senior class, $1000 was decided to be a realistic goal. The students themselves will decide how their gift will be used. The solicitation will take place over a period of two weeks and will begin on April 16 at a "Kick-off'' dinner. At this time the purpose of the drive will be explained in greater detail. A student will be requested to pledge any amount she wishes, to be paid in the course of the next three years. It may be paid in full at the first contact or at any intervals specified by the individual donor. No member of the fund drive committee will engage in requesting pledges from other
Sociology Convocation ToFeature Woodward "Who Are You-Black Man?" will be the title of a lecture by Woody Woodland, scheduled for Mon., April 21 at 12:00 Noon, in the Cabrini College auditorium. The public is invited to attend without charge. This lecture, sponsored by the Social Science department, will be the last academic convocation of the scholastic year. Mr. Woodland will spend the afternoon on campus talking informally with students. He is currently working with the Cardinal's Commission on Human Relations and is lecturing in the Philadelphia area. Formerly a substitute in the Delaware County School System, Mr. Woodland also worked for the General Electric Co. as as Administrator of Engineering Design. He has also served as Executive Director of the Carver Community Center in Norristown. Mr. Woodland attended public schools in Chester (Pa.) and Cheyney State College.

Every gift to Cabrini College is acknowledged by a letter, suitable for verification of the gift for tax purposes. The committee respon sible for this drive is comprised of the following members of the Margrit senior cl Hss: President Boyle, Co-chairmen Kathie Lindhardt and Joyce Schultz, Resident Chairman Vera Stella, Day Student Chairman Alicia Syres, Resident Representatives Kathy McNerney, Mary Kai Stanbach, Claire McEntyre, and Judy Sherknis, Day Student Representatives Lorraine DeBrodi, Chris Brown, and Marlynne Micalizzi, and Publicity Staff members Mary Ellen Kelly and Carolyn Downing. The pledge drive committee is hoping for 100 percent participation. This is the first drive of this nature to be initiated at Cabrini, and it could well become the most important factor in a fruitful development program. It is hoped that this drive will be adopted as a tradition by outgoing classes and that at the end of the three-year pledge period, those who were participants will renew their pledges and continue to do so according to their capabilities. Such a tradition, Mr. Federico feels, will strengthen the asstructure of the alumnae sociation and provide a great source of satisfaction to both students and alumnae, by making them proud of Cabrini and the part they have played in the betterment of the college.

Miss Hauserman and Miss Ruggiano teamed up for the Mexican folk song "Preguntales alas estrellas."
Monday, March 24, the Mendelian Society, Cabrini's biology club, sponsored a panel discussion on Child Abuse. Guest speakers were Dr. Fred Petrone, head of the Education department on campus, Lieutenant Ruth Carter, of the policewoman corps in Philadelphia, and Dr. Halbert Fillinger, a forensic pathologist and assist-a-at M-edica-l. amine-1:..---The purpose of the panel discussion was to make the public aware of child abuse, and to show what students, as future leaders of the community, will have to contend with. Dr. Fillinger showed slldes, and Lt. Carter explained some cases she's worked on . Dr. Petrone told how the schools become involved with child abuse cases, and what the teacher can do when she spots such a case among her students. The panel discussion lasted an hour and a half.

Members of the Cast and Script Society are handling these jobs. The Constant Wife is being presented by special arrangement with Samuel French Company of New York. The Constant Wife has been acclaimed one of the most delightful, witty satires in the usual Maugham style.

Academically Speaking . This is about the Theology Department at Cabrini, but 1f you expect to read an editorial evaluation of one or more of the required Theology courses, don't read on, because you won't find any. such evaluation. Complaints about the Theology department and Theology in general were aired last year, and attempts wer e made to upgrade th e department by changing the curriculum, adding more credit per course, and cutting down the number of required courses to fiV2. Continuing in this fashion, four elective Theology seminars are being offered for next year . Even the "applied Theology," the spiritual aspects of campus life, have been steadily on the upgrade. Very recently a 4 :30 Sunday afternoon Mass was added to the weekly spiritual calendar. F ather Rudy reports that he has found this later Mass to be entirely successfu l, even while the earlier student Mass is also still well-atte nded . Add to this the very convenient 5 P.M. daily Mass, the Valentine Love F east, and the very meaningful Ash Wednesday Penitential Service, and the result points to an entirely adequate extracurricular theological program. But back to the academic . Perh aps this is nit-picking, but maybe it isn't . With the beginning of this schoo l year, Sr. Barbara inaugurated an Academic Lecture Series. Each department was called on to sponsor a speaker from off-campus. A few departments sponsored two such lecture s. But such a program coming from the Theology department was noticeably absent. The theology department, of course, was not the only department at Cabri ni to fail to present a speaker this year; but it seems that Theology is one area in a Chri stian community where the appeal of a very good topic should be able to draw crowds . Last year the noted theologian Bernard Haring addressed the college community . He spoke to a standing room auditorium, fill ed not only with Cabrini students, faculty and administration, but with over one hundred outside visitors. There mu st be at lea st one other notable lecturing theologian who would agree to speak at a Cabrini convocation. Or, perhaps a panel of theologians from many denominations cou ld have been sought to present a program. Also, there was an absence of theology department members at the many interdep artmental symposiums this year. It seems that if the Theology department is being upgraded so that it take s on mor e guise than being considered the boredom of mediocre required courses, it would join in the academic lecture series or at least in the interdi sciplina:a prQgrams. Surely, no opportunity to make theology both academic and meanmgfu1 shou1d be passed up.

Security DEAR EDITOR , Have you heard the latest? Grace Hall has become a stage for exhibitionists! ! Two weeks ago a startled fraternity brother was "dropped off" inside the dorm at 4:00 A.M.-much to the surprise of t h e girls in rooms 9 thru 12. Last Saturday at 8:00 P .M. a middle-aged man casually strolled into room 2, without his clothe s, and made his exit in the same casual manner after perversely horrifyi ng the occupants. Funny?? No, shock ing and enlightening. I suppose we can thank God that none of our girls have been harmed . Any women's college is susceptible to incidents suc h as these ju st mentioned. But Cabrini is particulary susceptible; we're an easy mark and any interested, deranged, or perverted human and we do have pe ople like that in the world) can discover this very easily. Cabrini has no full-time protection to guard the campus. Sure the police are here within a few minutes if we call, but we have no one to prevent these things from happening . - r don.'t mean we can change the world or post a
Burton Stars in 'Where Eagles Dare' by Lewis Hyde University of Minnesota (ACF) 'Where Ea gles Da re," with Richard Burt on, Clint Eastwood, and Mary Ure , is a spy adventure set in the Au strian Alps during World War II. Burton and Eastwood penetrate an impenetrable castle to free a captured Briti sh flyer . Like all good spy stories, the tale becomes endlessly complicated and convoluted before the end. The tension stays high . As soon as you figure out what's happening, it isn't. During the brief periods when you know what's going on, the tension is maintained by intensely dangerous situations and showers of violence and brutality like in any nine million dollar movie . Burton play s the infallible lead spy, always ahead of the other men, fast and cool. It's
a simple part and he does it well. Eastwood plays the Am erican from Montana; not quite with it, doing his job well, saying slight, low-keyed witicisms whenever he kills someone. The form of the movie is absolute Hollywood, bordering on spoof. The Germans speak English with German accents, the Gestapo chief is blond and angular, every passing train whistles, the German general wears a monocle, non e of the good guys gets hurt, Germans die like flies, a helicopter appear s years before its invention, every plant that's hit burn s, every car that crashes blows up, a girl is parach uted in so the publicity can show Burton smooching . .. the li st goes on. Reality is casually sacrificed to entertain. All movies do it. Ho wever, the departures in this one are so cliched that, compounded with the exces-

To begin , Grace Hall rooms have no locks on the doors and all the doors for entrance and exit were not locked the evenings when these incidents occurred.

"Peo ple want to act as they have to act." If students will begin to expect each other, and, more importantly, themselv es to act in accordance with Cabrini's defined standards of conduct (and they will be defined in the student handbook), then we .will no lon ger ne ed demerits as a "punishment." An honor system can work at Cabrini if we sincerely want it to work. After Easter vacation, there will be a meeting for all intere sted in trying to establish a system better than one of demerits at Cabrini. Please attend whether you be for or against the establishment of an Honor System. Another area where we might concentrate our interest is the Pennsylvania Association of College Stud ents (PACS). This organization was founded in 1966 for the purpose of making student opinions known among the legi slators in Harrisburg , and for the secondary purpose of in creasing inter-collegiate communication . PACS is currently involved in the Vote 18 movement in Harrisburg and in getting college and university administration s to accept one of the many Statements on Students Rights and Responsi bilities. Our college administration has accepted the Joint Statement on Right & Responsibilities published by the American As sociation of University Personnel (AAUP), but t his acceptance means nothing if we, the st udents are not _ awar of those thingS-----Wl:uc::.h i- --.....: are our rights, those which are privileges, and those which are our responsibilities. This student awareness is another goal of P ACS. We will need a PACS representative for next year. Ideally, this representative should be a member of the present freshman class so that she may be active and influential in PACS by the time she is an upperclassman . The PACS representative need not be a member of SGA , and if your are interested in this organization, please see Cookie Barlracane, our current PACS representative. Cabrini can have a more active and aware student body. It is up to us. Hope to see you at the meeting after vacation! Penny Redde n

Camus' basic philosophical themes . L' Hote, translated The Guest, is a story by Camus, around which Mr . Bowers chose to center his talk Both works reveal the key to life as seen through the eyes of Camus . Beginning with the premise that reality is absurd and that everyday life is meaningless, Camus, somewhat paradoxically, concludes that suicide is not the logical outcome. Realty gives rise to not only absurdity but also to joy. Camus uses the word absurdity to describe the divorce he finds between the meaning man seeks in life and the meaninglessness he finds. In Camus' · own words, "The absurb is born of this confrontation between human need and the unreasonable silence of the world." Despite the apparent indifference inherent in this outlook, Camus is optimistic. He finds value in living for itself, not seeing any hope for fulfillment after death. "Man's greatness lies in his decision to be stronger than his condition. And if his condition if unjust, he has only one way of overcoming it, which is to be himself." From Sophocles, Camus takes a recipe for absurb victory : "Despite so many ordeals, my ...£U~ llil'-t:1U£.d ~'-'--«- .nc:L-th1 .e-c.i:w-0I.J,H;1 r=.a ~

Sister, who was recently awarded a $1500 scholarship to Bryn Mawr Graduate School, has also been offered a $2000 N.D.E.A. fellowship grant by the Cathoiic University School of philosophy. A native of Cuba, Sister came to the U.S. in 1963. After spending a year at the University of Miami, Sister entered the AC.I. order: Sister has been working in a double major-Chemistry and Philosophy. Sister also finds time to keep up on current events, play an active role in both Chemistry and Philosophy Clubs, and participated in the intramural ping pong tournament last semester. Her opponent in the tournament has reported her to be a sharp, steady player. She has also maintained a Dean's List average throughout her Cabriin year. Dr. Romano says it is no mean accomplishment to have won the recognition Sister has from Bryn Mawr-it is difficult to be accepted into its graduate school, even more so to be offered a scholarship. Ed. Note:
The staff of Loquias the Administration and Faculty would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Sister Maria and wish her "buena suerte" in all her future endeavors.

Also elected were junior Joan Radano, vice president, freshman Helen Sefranek, secretary, and sophomore Jeanne Baraldi, Treasurer. The Athletic Association is planning its annual studentfaculty picnic and softball game for Tuesday afternoon, May 6. The game should start around 3:30, and the picnic supper will be served outside starting at 5. In the even of rain, volleyball can be played in the gym.
Where Eagles Dare (Continued from P1age 1) humanizes the victims and keeps us from thinking is . As an aside, I'll mention that no one at MGM seems to care about violence. We talked to co-producer Jerry Gershwin. He doesn't give a damn. We quizzed the new MGM president, Louis Polk, who spoke of a pluralistic society , "You get shifts and tendencies .. .it's like a pendulum . . . you had witch burning in Salem. To cut violence out, I think, is a mistake ... " The gist of his answer seemed to be that people want to see violence. So, "Wihere Eagles Dare" is a good adventure movie. It's also a big, expensive, golden egg.

Although May 6 has been designated a reading day prior to the start of final exams, president Jane Sefranek explains the choice of dates as the ealiest possible hopefully warm-weather day. She also adds that every student deserves at least two hours prior to exams to relax, either by indulging in the sport of softball or by cheering on their favorite faculty members. · Many of the faculty members bring their families to the picnic, with most of their children taking turns at bat. The A.A. is also still working on intramurals in line volleyball to be played · after dinner in the remaining weeks of school.

game, the men had spent every spare minute "shaping-up" by practicing with their coachfor-the-evening, "Hustlin' Helen" Goodwin. Our ever-ready varsity waited confidently, Then it was time. The buzzer signaled the start of the game. From the initial jump it was clear that it was going to be a rough game. Before the game ended, "Handy Andy" Litavec had fouled out, and his friend Bill "the Killer" Kuhns had floored his opponents for a total of four fouls. "Jumpin'· Joe" Romano was hung-up on Barb Bradfield for a while, and little Jeannie Baraldi tied up "the giants" ("Tricky Dick" Harper and "Sneaky Pete" Federico) four times, forcing jump balls. Bill DiComo "Buffaloed" the gals to earn 6 points, and Tony "the Tiger" Tomasco quietly "put one in." "Leapin' Larry" Sedler was a striking figure in his coral sweat pants, but contributed only his good looks to the game. "Tricky Dick" and "Sneaky Pete" paced the winners with 18 and 16 points, respectively. "Chief" Jane Sefranek and Jeanne Baraldi contributed 10 and 9 points for the varsity, coached for the evening by "Daddy" Baraldi. Two gals, volun teer refs from Eastern Baptist College, tried to keep the game honest ... didn't they, Mr . Litavec?
