Exhibition Of Strand's Work Spans Fifty Years by Carol Mele
During the past three months, the Philadelphia Museum of Art has enabled visitors to gaze through the viewfinder at the same world that has been discovered and photographed by American photographer, Paul Strand.

Have you ever tried to explain to someone back home where yo_u go to college? Nine times out of ten they've never heard of it; some even look a little skeptical, as though you just made it up. How then, did a huge corporation like Ban Deodorant ever hear of us? We must have a name somewhere. When Ban came to Cabrini they had no trouble obtaining the necessary signatures for the wierdest experiment I've ever heard of. For those of you who weren't fortunate enough to participate in this experiment, it went like this: we received syringes fuil of deodorant Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights, and then Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings Cabrini came alive at 6:30 as we sweated sweetly in the heated Woodcrest smoker. I don't think I'll ever walk in there again without breaking into a cold sweat . Getting up at 6:30 was an added treat, since everyone looked simply ravishing at that hour. I can 't even begin to list the wonderful m edical ber.efits this treatment gave us, such as
no sleep, sitting in a germ-filled heated room, racing into the snow from 90 degree heat, and so on and so on. . . . Another highlight of the experiment was the jolly, understanding director. He was such a joy to work with, and it was obvious that he cared very much for all of us. Aside from minor difficulties (like having deodorant squished in your ear ), things went well until Friday morning , when a lot of kids had trouble return-
ing after their Thursday night dates. The snow the night befoer turned Cabrini's entranceway into a parking lot. (If I were Father · Rudy, I would . live in constant fear of finding a car in my living room some morning. ) w~s Pay Day But Friday which made it all worth it . It was also announced that . the Ban experiment may become a way of life here at Cabrini , and just think of all the money you'll save on deodorant !

LITTLE· MAN ON CAMPUS
Eat, Drink, And Be Merry; But Where? by Lew DiFelice
Just· prior to semester break, one item of the Council of College Affairs agenda was the installation of a snack bar i:n Sacred Heart Hall. Although ·still in the talk stage, the basic idea envisages automative vending machin€S containing coffee, soup, etc. Discounting a few soda and candy machines, there is no existing snack facilities on the campus, aside from the cafeteria. The cafeteria. however, is only opened during limited times. This prevents students and faculty from satisfying any craving hunger pains between classes. It is also totally disasterous for the coffee freaks, such as myself, who can at best filch from the faculty coffee pot. The snack bar would also be beneficial to the comunting and night students who cannot afford the exorbitant cafeteria prices. Resident students would not be forced to walk to Wayne everytime hunger pains strike. Then we must remember the financial aspects of an automative snack bar. The initial costs of these units might be prohibitive tq an already financially burdened school. Yet, I feel that the income derived from such machines would pay for the rental. Con-

ceivably, they might be a sourc~ of income. If this issue would be prohibitive, I suggest a trial perioq, if possible, to discover if such a snack bar would be an asset or a liability. I also suggest a poll be taken to find out what type of food and drink machines would be most popular. One obiection to such a snack bar was that it would create more litter and stains for the student lounge. If this factor does prevent the installation it would be a vindictive punishment of the majority for the supposed transgressions of a minority-reminiscent of one of my grade school nuns who kept the whole class after whenever a few people disturbed her tranquility. It should be noted that measures taken by the S.G.A.-hanging a few "Keep Clean" signs-have resulted in a much improved appearance of the lounge. I personally feel that a snack bar would be an asset to the students. I also hope I am not a lone voice crying in the wilderness. If the students and the rest of the school desire a snack bar, they should make their wishes known to the S.G.A. or C.C.A.

Religion And Science by George V. Palathumpatt
All knowledge is related to man, but the same object can be viewed at different levels and angles. For a physician, Mary is just a patient; for a merchant she is a customer; but for John she is his beloved. , The totality of human existence is more than mere measurables. The positive sciences, since they deal with the measurables of matter, are subject to laboratory verification. But human experiences, emotions, thoughts, values, etc., cannot be tested in a laboratory. Systems of knowledge whicb deal with these, have to adopt methods other than those of positive sciences. Methods of Mathematics, Zoology, Economics, and History cannot be identical. Then, the degree of certainty varies with the type of method. But one's method canot be substituted by another's. Hence they are incomparable and so is not superior or inferior to another on the basis of its method. Also, we do riot find that the importance and relevance to life, of a particular branch of knowledge, is in proportion to the degree of certainty of its method. Thus, a statement is not less true because the degree of certainty of its method of verification is less (examine the statements like 2+3=5; I love you; Mary is beautiful; Simon is the son of John ... ) . Exactness is an ideal which is never fully achieved in any human endeavour. Even the positive sciences are far from being exact. Euclidean geometry is wrong in the light of the "relativity" theory. But this does not rule out the scope of Euclidean geometry, which has been of tremendous help in building up technology with its stupendous achievements. Similarly every system of knowledge is subject to mistakes. Mistaken ideas have been held by scientists and religious teachers of all time. Only tomorrow will we be able to detect some of the mistakes of today. This does not mean that we should abandon all science and religion. Each system of knowled ;·e is based on a set of postulates. W e take them on faith. Without faith, nothing is possible-no knowledge, no trade, no education, no friendship, no science, and no religion. Also in each system of knowledge there are some ideas which are not completely digested by man. This is to be expected since man has his own limitations, imposed by his environments and by his nature. Environmental limitations can be overcome. When such limitations are overcome, we begin to grasp some of the thiPlgs which have been held mysterious. Excitement from the joyful c,omprehension of these mysteries should not lead us to draw the illogical conclusion that all mysteries can be comprehended in like manner , by man's own self-effort. W e should also note that the existence of mysteries does not disprove the validity of anp particular system. Even positive sci-· ences recognize the existence of mysteries. Nobody has fully digested the ideas like
square- root of minus one, space, time, continuum, etc. Religion has elements of faith and mysteries more than in other systems. This is inevitable, since religion deals with the deepest of all reality, transcending space and time. We have heard of conflicts between science and religion. These conflicts have been clouded by a lot of misunderstandings. They arose from a failure to distinguish betwen the roles or methods of religion and science. For example, an engineer represents a road by drawing two parallell lines while a painter draws it converg ent. Apparently there' is a difference between these two. But actually in both cases the same truth is conveyed with equal validity. It is interesting to study the dominant tendencies of history. Formerly, there has been an undue interference by religious authorities, in all aspects of life. They claimed the monoply of all knowledge. Then came the tendency to attribute this monopoly to science. Both of these situations proved to be harmful to the healthy dev_elopment of human society. Man reacts to both and the reaction always seems to lead man from one extreme to the other. It could be said that features of modern society like the hippie movement is a (negative, though bold) reaction the monopolisation of life by science. It was interesting to note that some people were celebrating the end of religion of earth when' man landed on the moon, while the conquerors of moon themselves were thanking God for their achievement. Dr. Wehrner Von Braun, the brain behind the Apollo mission, said once: "It has been freqeuntly stated that scientific enlightenment and religious belief are incompatible. I consider it one of the greatest tragedies of our time, that this equally stupid and dangerous error is so widely believed. With all the modern means at our disposal, we should tell the world that religion and science are not incompatible; that, on the contrary, they belong together." A.cording to Christianity, the cosmos is the extension of the mystical body of Christ. It has been sanctified by the Incarnation and it awaits transformation in God's glory. By discovering forces of nature, man is subduing the world, as commanded unto him; man is co-operating with God's continuing work of creation. In the words of Pope John XXIII, "Not only can faith and reason never by in opposition to each other, but they render each other reciprocal acceptance. Far from fearing the most daring discoveries of mankind, the Church believes, on the contrary, that any progress in the possession of truth brings forth a broadening toward the primary truth as well as glorification of the creative work of God." On careful analysis, we find the science and religion have helped each other, purifying and fostering healthy development of th'.e other.

Bored? It's Your Fault by ~laria
Valente
Lately, a frequent topic of conversation among several members of the college community is that Cabrini lacks an academic atmosphere. Whether or not this is true depends on the individual's concept of academic atmosphere. However, certain factors do tend to substantiate this belief. Not only is there poor attendance at forums and l2ctures, but a general attitude of apathy toward all academic affairs prevails on campus. Indeed, a typical conversation at the lunch or dinner table will attest to this. But there is another problem, perhaps not as obvious as the above, but which, nevertheless, exists-and this concerns the student's life off campus. Simply ask yourself the question, "How does a Cabrini student spend his time (or should I Say waste it)? What does the student do on weekends? Go to the Beef or to parties? Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, but how can one go to these places every conceivable weekend without becoming bored? The point I am trying to make is that our students are afforded many opportunities by which they can broaden their intellectual and cultural backgrounds. Yet, they are not availing themselves of such opportunities. Cabrini's proximity to Philadelphia offers the student numerous means of enjoyment. As far as art is concerned, museums include the Philadelphia Art Museum, the Rodin Museum, and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, to name a few. It is also unbelievable how a musiic lover could pass up the opportunity to listen to the Philadelphia Orchestra or the Philadelphia Lyric Opera Company. And if one is not a music lover, why not enjoy a stage production at the Wa lnut, Locust, Forrest, or Shubert Theaters? Discount coupons for peHormances are constantly placed in the student's mailbox, but unfortunately, they remain in the mailbox. " Indeed, if the student avails himself of such cultural opportunities, he will not only enrich his own life, but will offer incentive to the other members of the college. Discussions of the various museums and performances will arise among the students, and perhaps then, will we begin to experience an academic atmosphere at Cabrini!

Question: HowDoYouViewCabrini's Environment?
Karen Kirchner, Senior, Commuter. "I believe Cabrini's environment to be extremely unconducive to the development of the individual, in -a sense of a responsible individual, one who is aware not only of himself, but of himself as _a member of a larger community, a member of society. For some reason, there is an intense feeling of apathy. It completely permeates the campus. No matter who you talk to, you get the kind of response, "Why should I do anything around here? It doesn't really matter." No one really cares what happens to himself or to Cabrini. And I think part of the problem is that a small Catholic girls' school is kind of the bottom of the barrel when it comes to colleges. We're not living in a Catholic society. We're living in a society which encompasses a lot more than just one type of people. We're kind of isolated here among middle class, white Catholics. And I think that's basically part of the problem. We're being protected. We're completely unaware of the majority, of anyone but ourselves. And what exactly it would take to bring us ou-f of this apatby-tliis uncaring feeling-I don't know. Perhaps, if we could get away from the fact of this being a Catholic college, it would help.
We should start bringing in more students from the city, so we could start exposing our closed-up minds to more than ourselves. If we have to do this by shock method, I think it is necessary. No one around here picks up the newspaper, looks at the news on TV, or at ·anytime takes any interest in anything but himself and who his date will be this weekend. Things like that, I just don't see why they have any meaning for the people. Man is a social being, and until we realize that, we'll make no headway. We'll just keep going under like we're starting to go under now" Mrs. Lilian Artman, Librarian. "I have only one complaint. In the library, books are taken out without being charged out. Sometimes they are returned, other times, not returned. Reference books, which are never to leave the library, are taken out by some · selfish individual who thinks of herself, and herself only. She does not consider the rest of the students. They have to use the same books. Maybe there is just one. But that doesn't mean anything to the girl who takes it out. "If you would all remember that other people also have to use these books, and if you yourself came over and couldn't get it, then maybe the next time, you wouldn't be so smart, shall I say, taking the books out of the library." Carter Craigie, Chairman of the Sociology Department. "I would view the env1ronment-:rs meaning several things. One, having the environment of the setting, the buildings. I think it's fantastic. I think it's really ·
good. It has just the right amount of Catholic statuary around, so that it does not intimidate those who are not Catholic, and yet, for those who are Catholics, it would be reassuring. "I think the environment of the classrooms is very good. The rooms are of various sizes, which makes it appropriate for small classes and large classes, I think the office facilities for the , faculty are .fine. I would like to see some other things being part of the environment, such as a snack bar or some type of student union building. As for our own campus and near-by campuses, I'm surprised there aren't more ·people who bicycle around here. I think
that there are areas where you could do that. "As far as the student environment, as far as the campus spirit, I find that the student looks for an environment off campus, rather than looking at our campus as a focal point for activities, and I think that's a shame." Junior resident. "I think the environment at Cabrini is not very academic. I think that the majority on campus is not ino~ terested in anything excep cial life and marriage. I think there is not enough attention paid to the students in academics.
"I think the Theology Department is a waste of time and money. I do not think several of the teachers are qualified to teach Theology. They teach Theology in the Medieval Period. They feel that Thomas Acquines is their hero, instead of contemporary theologians who would be much more appropriate for the class. "I think some money should bE; appropriated to the library. It's worse than a grammar school library. You can't find anything in it. The library, altogether, is terrible, ifs just terrible." Charles Jeffers, Sophomore Commuter. "My opinion is that I like the environment of Cabrini. I'm very happy here. I transferred here. What I think you might mean by your question-since it is ambiguous-is what I've heard other people say-and that's about the . apathy that some people feel is on campus. My opinion is that apathy is a psychological defense mechanism of projection. It's often that as the pun goes, there's a lot of apathy around here, but nobody cares. I think every student tends to leave it up to the other fellow, for someone else to provide something for that student to do. The college is prima-rily the sum of the students. It would seem to me that if people feel there is apathy here it would be their fault and not the fault of said college or whatever ." Kathy Fusc;o, Sophomore Resident. "My opinion of Cabrini's environment, as far as the student-teacher nvironment, · that it's pretty good. The classes are kind of small. You can talk with your teachers. They'll tell you what you should do, and
Political Ca.reers
Johnn)' Got His Gun by Phil Kirchney
Like most social issues today, the Vietnam War has slowly faded into the background for many of us. Judging from appearances and my own personal experience, it seems that many of us have mellowed with the years. We are still committed against the war, but our commitment lacks the intensity it once had and the action which it often led to. And the atrocities continue. You might ask what this has to do with a movie revue. Well, go see Johnny Got His Gun and you'll see. Originally a novel by Dalton Trumbo, written in the years between World Wars I and II, the author has recently made a movM! of his "underground classic." The story of a young boy who leaves his home and his girl behind to make the world safe for democracy is extremely moving, both for its uncompromising and appallinlg intensity and for its sincerity. Johnny gets hit by an exploding shell in a bunker somewhere in Europe during World War I. He is left without arms and legs; without eyes, mouth, nose, and ears; all that remains is the trunk of a body and a faceless skull, in which a brain somehow survives. The military doctors decide to keep Johnny alive for test purposes. And so he is filed away as a dassified secret, hidden in a dark unused storage room in a military hospital. The rest of 1e whole movie takes place in .:ihnny's mind, consisting of his .. 1oughts, dreams, and memories-his ·nightmares. · On the one hand, the movie is a searing, bitter look at the cruelty and inhumanity of war
and the insanity of the society that produces it. But it also presents a sensitive, probing picture of man's struggle to find meaning for his li~e when he has been reduced to little more than a living brain without a body. Johnny's situation is a constant battle against the threat of a slipping into insanity. I won't tell you the ending, but I can assure you that you won't walk away laughing. And if the social implications of the movie don't arouse you, then the psychological and philosophical implications should. The statement on the cover of the paperback edition · of the book pretty well sums up how I felt about the movie: "We defy anyone to remain unmoved by this novel!"
Thanks you all-sisters, administrators, faculty, students, a~d other friends-for the many kind remembrances received during my recent illness. Mr. Hughes

they help you out a lot. It's not as if you're in a big school and you can't even communicate with your teachers because you can't .find them half the time. "As far as the classes, the environment within your class, you're not really close because there's a separation between the day hops and the residents. The sophomores are trying with intramurals to get everyone together, but are the other classes doing anything about it? I don't know if they are or not. "There is a lot of apathy in the school because the campus is so small that there's not a lot of things going on and the kids just don't care about what goes on on their campus-they just don't participate in things. "As far as the campus goes, it's really small. The kids just aren't interested in the things around here. If there was a student center maybe the environment would be better-more enjoyable. But they'll sit in their dorms or they 'll just walk to Wayne. They don 't even try to do anything to help out the school. "There's lots of things to do in the area around here. Maybe i.f..the ..Jdds....did_g_o in to_ E_hHadelphia they'd have a richer environment, but they don't even bother. They just stay sheltered -it's a sheltered campus."

Film Festival: TheArrangement Only the genius of Elia Kazan could bring the overpowering drama and excitement of his novel, "The Arrangement," to the screen. This careful scrutiny of the success syndrome in the advertising game was the nation's best-selling book for 43 weeks, and later boasted a record 2,400,000 first printing of the paperback edition. Kirk Douglas, in a highly praised performance, is Eddie, the "sucessful" advertising executive who leads a desperate search to overcome the meaningless and empty "arrangements" which characterize his life with his wife (Deborah Kerr), his mistress (Faye Dunaway), his tyrannical father (Richard Boone) and the family lawyer (Hume Cronyn). A trail-blazer in presenting "forbidden" subjects such as anti-semitism, civil rights and u n i o n racketeering to the screen, Kazan has directed two Academy Award .films, "Gentle-
------------men's Agreement" and "On the Waterfront." He was nominated as best director for "Streetcar Named Desire" (the film won Oscars for Vivien Leigh, Karl Malden and Kim Hunter) and "East of Eden."

Ice Hockey? Puck-er Up THE UNITEDNATIONSEDUCATIONAL,SCIENTIFICAND CULTURALORGANIZATION
by Alice·Vail
a specialized agency of the United Nations dedicated to peace
and
Ice Hockey is a fast-moving and exciting sport. In recent years, attention has been given to this fact. Little wonder! The puck sometimes hits speeds of 100 m.p.h., and the players may travel up to 30 m.p.h. themselves. Six years ago, Jim Salfi came to the University of Pennsylvania and started Ice Hockey as a club sport. Thanks to the efforts of this man, the coach, Penn is presentiy holding the No. 5 spot in the Ivy League and the No. 10 spot in the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference. That's a great deal qf progress, considering this is only their second season in the new rink. Before last year, the team had to travel to and from the Cherry Hill Arena for practice. Sam Gellard, one of Penn's co-captains, has been playing Ice Hockey since he was four years old. He played Junior A. in Vancouver, B.C . before coming to Penn. When asked if, after so many years and after playing under such pressure, the game was still fun, he answered, "As far as I'm concerned, when the fun is out of the game, that's when I'm gotng to quit." In the coming weeks, Penn will meet Dartmouth (Jan. ·22), Yale 1(Jan. 29), Brown (Feb. 5), Cornell (Feb. 9), R.P;L / (Feb. 23), St. Lawrence (Feb. 26), Princeton (Mar . 1), and B.C . (Mar. 4) on its own ice . Cornell stands in the No . 2 spot in both Divisions. What are Sam's feelings about' the game? "Myself, especially, this being my senior year, I'd like to beat Cornell. We've never beaten them. Personally, ~ think we can beat them, and I think the team feels that way, too. Both Cornell and Harvard are strong in all areas. I don't think they have a weak point. Cornell's strong point would be their defense, and Harvard is in the same situation. But they also have a really good offense." So, for a really exciting evening, I highly recommend attendtng one of their games. You won't regret it.

Ardmore Theater Rediscovers 'King of Hearts'
Eureka! The management of the Ardmore Theatre has just "rediscovered what is possibly the funniest comedy of the past decade, Phillppe De Broca's hilarious romp, "King of Hearts," showing what happens when the nuts take over the boobyhatch. The film will be shown for a one week's limited engagement starting February 9th at the Ardmore Theatre in Ardmore. "King of Hearts" was set in France during World War I and stars Alan Bates and Genevieve Bujold. Bates plays a Scots soldier ordered to defuse a giant bomb left in a French village by the retreating Germans. When he enteres the village he ijnds himself surrounded by escaped lunatics who crown him their King of Hearts and marry him off to Miss Bujold, a beautiful circus performer. The British commanding officer is played by Adolfo Celi who previously received world-wide notice for his role as the SPECTRE chief in James Bond't thriller, "Thunderball."
