team was the first ever to win the ;: top two-man trophy for the second ,: successive year and also the first

I~.:.·.~ squad to capture both the two and four-man awards in the same year.

&~ The team of J'ohn Koeltl, and Bob ~" Shrum won all of their eight pre­t: liminary debates, defeating such . teams as Harvard, St. Joseph's and

~t Dartmouth. In the elimination ~~ rounds they beat George Washing­t~ ton, Boston College, University of L Illinois, and Wayne State in the h finals to take first place. John Cros­r. by and Rick Rinaldo compiled a 5-3 r.!. record in the preliminary matches ~. and, on the basis of team points,

by the Georgetown Philodemic Society, featured ten roundS' of debate beginning Friday night and ending with Coral Gables' victory on Sunday afternoon. In that time, the Coral Gables team swept to ten straight victories, six in the pre­liminary rounds and then four final round victories.

"Power-Paired" The tournament opened with one

round of debate on Friday night. The following day, after breakfast, the teams embarked on five more preliminary rounds. According to chairman Alston Johnson, the teams were "power-paired" in such a way that with each succeeding round the number of undefeated teams was cut in half.

Schwarz Outstanding Saturday night at the awards

banquet, Da.n Schwarz of Coral Gables was named the tourna­ment's outstanding speaker; at the same time the sixteen finalists were announced. Among them were two teams from Coral Gables, two teams from Clarksville, Kentucky and two teams fl"om Jesuit High School in Louis:iana.

Semifinals After two rounds of debate on

Sunday, four teams were left in the tournament. In the semifinal round, Coral Gables (8-0) defeated Harrodsburg, Ken t u c k y (8-0) while Fordham (7-1) defeated pre­tournament favorite Regis High School of New York (8-0). This set the stage for the final round, held before a full audience in the Hall of Nations at 3:30 that after-noon.

Resolved The final round was a rematch

of the finals of the Miami Beach invitational held earlier this year, won by Fordham. The debate topic was: Resolved: that nuclear wea­pons should be placed under the control of an international organ­ization. Coral Gables, the affirma­tive, determined the focal point of the debate when they contended that within a few years Egypt and LSl'ael will have atomic weapons, in which case either Egypt will at­tack Israel or a state of mutual vulnerability will precipitate the escalation of a nuclear conflict be­tween the two powers. To meet this need, they proposed a program for control of the production of nuclear weapons. The negative side at­tacked the contention that Egypt and Israel will obtain nuclear wea­pons in a short time, together with the plan proposed on the grounds that the margin or error in any in­spection system to detect the pro­duction of nuclear weapons is too great. The judges awarded the de­bate to the affirmative, Coral Gables, by a vote of 6-1.

Student Forum Meeting Hears Campus Politicos Debate Student Apathy

Casey Brown, past leader of the YD's, began by emphasizing that there were two types of student political action. The first kind is any activity that is associated with violence.

As a result of the sudden expulsion of the East Campus Student Council from its offices on first Loyola Hall, the executive officers of the Council met last Friday with Aca­demic Vice-President Fr. Brian McGrath. S.J., the deans of the College and the Institute, and the assistant deans of the Business and Foreign Service Schools.

The officers expressed their -=d-u-e-t:-o-a-d-=-e-f07'e-c-,-t-:i=-n----:"th=--e-c-a-m-p-u-s-m-a""'il;-. belief that the University has Fr. McGrath refused to talk a-

fecting students or their represen­tatives, the representatives would be consulted prior to the formula­tion of any decision; (2) that on non-controversial decisions con­cerning students, the decisions would remain tentative until the Council was notified and had time to comment.

Fr. Campbell remarked that Dr. Kearn's release was based on Uni­versity policy, which is to retain only professors who are extremely competent. He said that the Rank and Tenure Committee recom­mended that Kearns be dismissed and that to have kept him here with no future would have been an in­justice. He was released because the University hoped to get a better man.

Kearns, Assistant Professor of English, and for the manner in which the affair was handled.

In a second resolution, which was also passed unanimously, the Council gave its President permis­sion to call for a student demon­stration and it criticized the Rev. Brian A. McGrath, S. J., for what they considered his disregard for student opinion.

The passage of the resolutions is the result of a series of events which began on Thursday, Febru­ary 11, when Delta Sigma Pi, the Young Republicans, and AIESEC were moved from their offices on the first fioor of Loyola Hall into the basement. In the process some of Delta Sigma Pi's belongings were damaged and their secret files were exposed. AIESEC had to pay for the re-installation of tiheir phone in the lower office. On Fri­day, February 12, the Student Council learned in a letter from the Student Personnel Office that the class offices and the Sodality office were to be moved. The Sodality successfully protested and were al­lowed to stay. After complaints from the class officers, the S. P. O. gave them a one-week reprieve. On Monday, February 15, it was learned that more offices were to be shifted. That evening the Coun­cil censured the University and called for rStudent demonstrations. The following night Senior officers talked with the Very Reverend

Editorial:

Embassy Demonstration The recent demonstration by Georgetown students in

front of the Soviet Embassy was marked by commentary both locally and nationally. Some of the letters that were received by the Administration in connection with the picketing appear on another part of this page, all lauding the students on the manner in which they conducted them­selves.

The demonstration itself set an excellent example of the taste, discipline, and regard for law that should govern these displays. Georgetown students, as well as all Washington area students, have a singularly unique opportunity and obligation with regard to foreign developments because they are so near the embassies. The positive effect that such demonstrations can have on morale both at home and abroad should not be underrated, and at the same time an example is offered to those students in other countries where "demonstration" has become a synonymn for riot. Congratulations to those Hoyas who took part in the picketing for the taste and awareness of foreign developments they displayed.

Proporation and Effective Student Government Within the past four years the University has undergone

a rapid rate of growth. Many of the problems that have ac­companied this development are just beginning to appear, others are already apparent and have been brought into focus in light of recent events. The criticisms offered by stu­dents over the relative merits of the tuition, Kearns and communication cases have, at times, tended to become over­worked.

The problems that arose in each of these cases were the result of decisions that had been already implimented. The incidents were bitterly attacked and, in some cases, blown somewhat out of proportion to the degree of seriousness or ability to rectify the situation. The Administration, to some extent, found itself confronting these and accompanying problems for the first time. Whereas two or three years ago many of the recent breakdowns in information could have been handled much more informally, it has become apparent that a more formal policy is needed. While striving to main­tain a proper sense of proportion as they look for solutions to these mutual problems, the students must assume some of the initiative in approaching the Administration if they expect to be met halfway.

In view of this, special praise must be given to Jim Ethier and the Walsh Area Council for the recent handling of their censure motion. Their actions set a hopeful example for future council workings. The problem they attempted to rectify was one of policy and they were able to subsequently gain Administrative approval for a memorandum that pro­vides for the calling in of student representatives before a decision is made on controversial matters affecting students, and informing students on non-controversial matters that affect them. The decisions in this case would be tentative un­til the representatives were contacted.

There were still problems in making the approach, but the gains made were again significant. By keeping the issues in proper proportion, the Wash Council has made a signifi­cant contribution to both Administration-Student relations, and stronger, responsible student government. Hopefully, these last two points will also be kept in proper perspective.

Letters To The Editor • • •

Embassy Picket Ed. Note. The following letters we?'e ?'eceived by Father Devine after the recent demonstration at the Soviet Embassy. He turned them over to The HOY A in order that the credit and publicity earned by those students for the Univer­sity throughout the country might be known to the student body. In addition to the letters were edi­to?'ials that appeared in several large dailies.

To Fr. Devine: Through you, may I take this

means to extend my congratula­tions and admiration of the George­town University students and others who spearheaded and par­ticipated in the picketing of the Russian Embassy on Thursday afternoon, February 11. 1965.

They conducted themselves in exemplary manner and altogether presented a picture of orderliness and respect for law in the exercise of their privilege as American students.

May I also thank you personally for your kindness in receiving me to explain our problem and the co­operation and helpfulness you ex­tended us by being present at the scene to insure that no untoward incident might mar the proceed-ings,

Sincerely yours, -Thomas Rasmusen

Deputy Chief of Police

To Fr. Devine: As a graduate of Manhatten Col­

lege and Fordham University, I would like to commend you and 1Jhe students who marched near the Soviet Embassy.

It is my opinion that this demon­stration did much for the morale of the military, especially for those troops in Vietnam who have sur­vived, not a stoned Embassy, but a ruined barracks.

Fifty universities from all over the world attended the seventh an­nual meeting of the University Model United Nations held at Mon­treal, Canada from February 10 to 13. Georgetown University's Inter­national Relations Club sent sev,en men in two delegations, one repre­senting the United Kingdom and the other Albania. The Georgetown U. K. delegation hammered out a compromise on the current U. N. peace-keeping impasse. They de­vised and sponsored a formula that was unanimously accepted by the General Assembly and ,acclaimed by the Assembly pr,esident, as the most significant resolution at this year's student U. N. As a result, the United Kingdom representation was cited as the best delegation and awarded the conference prize.

On Tuesday, March 23, George­town University's ROTC chapter of the Scabbard and Blade Honor So­ciety will sponsor its annual blood drive. During the past week, pa­rental consent slips and Red Cross program brochures were given to cadets and campus students. Any­one single or under 21 must have these signed by his parents in order to donate. Scabbard and Blade urges those who wish to donate their blood to send the slips home and have them returned as soon as possible.

To Fr. Devine:

Kudos to all the Hoyas-these for the impressive display of re­sponsibility and action evidenced by the students, faculty and admin­istration as reported in the N. Y. Times a few days ago .. Such action gladdens and makes proud this old grad, and I am sure many others.

The contrast presented in that same day's paper, p. 31, column 8, relating to student action and ad­ministration comment on a sad sit­uation at a New England institu­tion, popularly characterized as a 'prestige institution', is striking. It should emphasize to any thinking person that there does exist dif­ferent philosophies of education, and citizen responsibility.

Having been a class officer, mem­ber of the Student Council, and student assistant in the office of the Dean of Discipline, Fathers Mc­Donough and Kehoe, for almost seven of my eight years at George­town (C & M), I can appreciate the thought required, as well as appreciation of the responsibility, of all elements involved in this action that reflected so favorably the Georgetown attitude. With kindest regards, I am

Sincerely yours, -J. E. Ryan, M.D.

To the Editor: Permit me to cheer the recent

demonstration of some of your stu­dents in "retaliation" for the riot­ous assault on the U. S. Embassy in Moscow. I could hope that simi­lar "action" might be taken with respect to the U. A. R. and Indo­nesian Embassies, and that it might become a regular form of retort in the future. Personally I would not mind if there were some broken windows but I can see the possible wisdom of avoiding this so I don't insist.

This letter is occasioned by the hysteria :indigenous to sports pro­grams at all levels once a team begins to flounder. Georgetown is the latest to manifest the symptoms of this malady. Criticism is ramp­ant, the most raucous erupting from the uninformed. Campus com­ment is quick to sting all associated with the downtrodden member of campus society. Rumors abound. Players turn to playboys, Jesuit administrators are labeled miserly ministers of an outdated policy. Most significant is the Clarion call for a new ledger i'Il the dark sride cor rid 0 r of McDonough gym. Finally, as is customary during those epidemics, the front lines of these verbal assaults are manned largely by those who seldom tl'eak to the lower campus ticket windows or whose vast knowledge of the current difficulties is gleaned from sports page headlines rather than first-hand observations.

Big things were expected from this year's varsity. It had height, speed and depth. It also had in­experience, questionable knees and much outside shooting to replace.

After a rocky start, (without Brown and Gillen,) the team re­cuperated and by February 3rd, it was outplaying the number-three team in the nation for three quar­ters. But slips from lofty perches can often mean long and disaster­ous tumbles, ,as the ensuing five-

game streak so vividly illustrated. These defeats, and more impor­tantly the manner of their ac­complishment, do suggest that something is wrong. Basketball, however, like many of the subjects taught in the upper campus class­rooms, is not an exact science. It is not a matter of rearranging formulas to achieve a desired re­sult. It is a game of combinations, personalities, psychology, and luck. Most of all it is a game of frac­tions. When unit precision is lost, its absence is reflected on the score­board, but the underlying causes are often concealed behind the ten or so uniforms that crowd the pre­game huddle.

How many of these same critics who now deplore the Hoyas' plight and clamour for new direction re­member that this is the same man under whose tutorship an under­manned and undersized five won stunning victories over Loyola, La Salle and N.Y.U. just a year ago, I remember thinking as I watched those games that basketball is often an enigma in which five young men who come surging back for instruction at time outs can in­deed perform in mysterious ways. The point is that when the five marionettes are performing well, the spectators hail their operator

1';:'

as a mastermind, and when they perform not-so-well, the manipula- t: tor is inferior and must be re- (ct, placed-and this despite the fact that once on court no thread, no matter how sheer, ever extends from player to coach.

r-·J, (i~ !~1

All this is not to say that a good irt~' coach cannot signally influence 1Jhe If! conduct of his charges. Drills and Il,'.'.~.' patterns, plays and practice are I' ~ still prime determinants of success i.:~ or failure, other factors being f~

equal (which of course they never r:.,,~.:i1,""~"':' are.) Being but a younger student ~ of the game, my thoughts on the present coaching techniques and instruction are not by any means .. 1 the worst authoritative yardstick l~ available. However, as one Who ,,;~ ;~ played under him in high school )l

and college, who shared the same ,~ bench while coaching the Freshman ... ~ team for the past three years, , '!l Coach O'Keefe has in my opinion, .:;; made an outstanding contribution r :;1 to Georgetown. He has given un- ~i stintingly of himself to build IJ Georgetown into a ranking Eastern ~i Basketball power, a formidable l;~ task to be achieved within the . ~~ ·framework of high Jesuit scholastic ".'f;~ standards. More importantly, how- ~1l ever, he has never placed winning ,(~ g ames above the responsibility of' ~ "3ll turning out sportsmanship worthy tl of Georgetown's traditions. If per- (liM spectives are to be maintained, ,';~ Coach O'Keefe will be back for \i many years attempting to achieve 'i the former goal while continuing n to ;~:ai:n:~e ::::er~n this alreadY" 'I:' overly-long narrative remains. It \ f' is addressed in partiCUlar to the 1 student body. The Georgetown fans are in many instance a peculiar ,­breed.

at Georgetown these days is not the d~ basketball team. ~he team will re- :¥' cover. Unreflectmg student and ;";' alumni vocalization is the true in- ~, firmity. Let's hope for its swift recovery before any rash action is executed under seizure of the present mania.

Government Dept. Presents Address Before Big Crowd

by Frank Kelly Tuesday night, the Depart­

ment of Government pre­sented R. G. Boyd, speaking on Chinese Foreign Policy, in its International Relations In­quiry Lecture series. Mr. Boyd, visiting professor of Sino­Soviet relations at George Wash­ington U. is a graduate of Mel­bourne University, and has worked as a research officer for the Au­stralian Department of Defense and S.E.A.T.O.

Mr. Boyd began his lecture with a description of the Chinese Com­munist leaders, emphasizing that they remain basically the same as they were in 1948, and that their approach to economic problems is virtually unchanged. Their political philosophy is the promotion of in­ternational tensions, violent ac­tions, and constant pushing of the Communist international revolu­tion despite temporary setbacks.

Chinese Foreign policy tends to follow definite trends according to Mr. Boyd. He gave a short history of the major eras of it since World War II. He pointed out the varia­tions from emphasis of universal aggression to picking and choosing associates and enemies.

Mr. Boyd dealt conclusively with the Sino-Soviet split since 1960, tracing its repercussions in West­ern foreign policy from South America, through Africa, to Asia. He partiCUlarly emphasized the ad­verse influence this has on the wis­dom of a hard line stand in South­east Asia, for fear of a renewal of Sino-Soviet friendship. Progressing to 0 f f i cia I pronouncements of Chinese foreign policy, Mr. Boyd mentioned what the Chinese form­ally profess and what their real position is. Particularly striking is the fact that this fashion of linking propaganda to foreign policy can be so effective.

In conclusion, Mr. Boyd said that Chinese foreign policy fosters revo­lutions and insurgency throughout the world, particularly Southeast Asia. The objective is to be attained without endangering China to the risks of such interventions. Mr. Boyd sees a continued contraction of Western influence in Southeast Asia unless the West is willing to take the gamble of hard line diplo­macy.

Council--------Closeup

by Bob Dixon Just how forceful can a

council be? Should a Council act through channels to solve its problems or should it im­mediately call for student in­volvement in the form of demonstrations?

Last week saw the Walsh Council call for student demonstrations if their questions were not answered. It was true that the University had constantly refrained from giv­ing any information on the Kearn's case, stating that it was their right to terminate his services. The Kearn's affair has become a cause celeb1'e throughout the University and any time that new informa-. tion appears reactions are violent. The cry is that Georgetown sup­pressess academic freedom and yet, as Commenweal pointed out, the University tolerates freedom of thought among its faculty. Dr. Grisezs and Dr. Dupre's two view­points on marriage should be proof enough of this point.

But back to the Council's call for action. The Councilmen found themselves cast out of many of their offices and shoved into more cramped quarters. In no mood to feel friendly to the administration

Fr Campbell Sets Week In March To Honor Corps

by Steven Nugent The week of March 8-14

bas been designated "George­town University Peace Corps Week," the Very Rev. Gerard J. Campbell, S.J., President, announced today. Fr. Camp­bell also revealed that the Univer­sity will train the eighth Peace Corps volunteer group this sum­mer. The group will consist of 90 volunteers for duty in Brazil.

Tests

Peace Corpsmen who have re­turned from service in the field will be on hand for the "Peace Corps Week" programs. They will main­tain two campus information cen­ters, one in Walsh lobby and an­other in New South lob b y. Throughout the week testing fa­cilities and opportunities will be available in the Palms Lounge in the Walsh Building. Students will be able to take the general aptitude (one hour) and language aptitude ( one hour, choice of French or Spanish) tests without leaving the campus.

Visits Arranged

Arrangements are being made for invitations to be issued to the volunteer teams to visit classes and address club meetings. The teams will recount their experi­ences in the field to familiarize Georgetown University students with the work of the Corps. Georgetown has already trained and sent some 700 volunteers over­seas to Afghanistan, Chile, Colom­bia, Ethiopia, Iran and Turkey.

By the beginning of Peace Corps Week offices for the organization will have been set up on the cam­pus. Rooms 109 and 110 in Loyola Hall wiIl be the new headquarters of the University Director of the Peace Corps programs, the Rev. George H. Dunne, S. J. Father Dunne, director of IS even previous Peace Corps programs at George­town, will supervise the activities of the volunteers. The Georgetown trainees will supplement a force of volunteers already at work in Brazil. The Summer program will be in operation on campus from June 21 to September 11.

sonal experiences and have sythesized these parts into one main theme."

Actors Jim Simon and Tom Callahan,told The HOYA that the theme of Man Alive! is "Man in the morning, noon and night," as described in Kahlil Gib­ron's novel, The Prophet. Among the selections included in the play are Black Mass from Herman Mel­ville's Moby Dick, a reading of the poems of the Rev. Riegmond Rose­lip, S. J., Georgetown Unversity's poet-in-residence, a Greek Coral reading of Casey at the Bat, and a popular piece from One in a Mil­lion, "Music Americana."

The play is taking place at "Stage One," an 80-seat theater located in the cellar of Poulton Hall on the 36 and P Street side. Under the direction of Dr. Murphy, the members of the Mask and Bauble Society renovated the unused area into a setting suitable for theatri­cal productions. The stage itself is movable and can be arranged ac­cording to the desires of the pro­ducer. Earlier this year, Stage One was a theater-in-the-round. Pres­ently, Man Alive's audience is seat­ed in a three-quarter block sur­rounded by dark maroon wans.

Performances for Man Alive will be on February 25, 26, 27 and March 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, and 13. The cost of admission is $1.25 and all shows begin at 8:30 p.m.

Consequently he makes inaccurate statements, hasty conclusions, and shows a lack of understanding of the work. He misses many points.

How can he assert, for example, that it is Pierre's struggle against communism with which the book is concerned, when it must be clear to an intelligent reader that it is rather a confrontation of two con­temporary European societies and the secondary effects they produce which are reflected in the life of a young person who, being a stranger to both of them, is always sus­pected of something he is not in fact. This situation, of course, is absurd but true. Mr. Atchity says that my "attempt (a confrontation with the much-touted absurd)

SYLVIA If you have trouble remembering

the characters in Sylvia, keep your eye on the drinking. You can't tell the actors without a wine-list. The girl who is not drinking is Sylvia, and it is a shame.

I suggest that director Gordon Douglas has slipped himself a mickey by framing scene after scene with drinking sequences­brandy, Scotch, coffee, malted milks -all sorts of beverages. Charac­ters are remembered by how and what they drink. The shame is that Douglas asks us Who Is Sylvia? She does not drink, we do not re­member her.

Peter Lawford is engaged to Sylvia, a wealthy California poet­ess and rose gardener. He hires private-eye Alan Macklin (George Maharis) to pry into her past. Lawford is rich; he has plenty of booze. He is a snob; he makes Mac pour his own drink.

Mac hunts for people who knew Sylvia in the old days. In Pitts­burgh he finds Viveca Lindfors and invites her to "coffee or drinks." "A drink", she says, "but just one. r get sentimental after more than one." She has been a librarian for eighteen years. She introduced Sylvia to the world of books.

Aldo Ray introduced step-daugh­ter Sylvia to another world. Loaded up on cheap wine, "a bottleful of lust," he raped her when she was fourteen. She ran away.

Salesman E d m 0 n d O'Brien drinks Scotch and soda at his back­yard 19th hole, on Sunday. He is not much of a family man. He used to tour the country with Sylvia.

would be admirable if Messrs. Sartre and Camus had not already exhausted our existential tend­encies."

I don't know of any work of either Sartre or Camus dealing with the same aspect of absurdity as is presented in Les A ventures Tumaines (the confrontation of two -hostile soeieties and the absurd results they create). According to him then, Sartre or Camus would be also "groping about in the shadows," let's say, of Malraux or even Gide because both of the last­named writers introduced the ele­ment of absurdity into contempo­rary French literature long before anybody even heard of Camus. Such a statement would be, defi­nitely, utterly ridiculous.

Then Mr. Atchity compares me to Franc;oise Sagan, pointing out that both of us lack originality, with the exception that at least "Sagan's style is entertaining and even ,pleasant enough to attract Hollywood." Franc;oise Sagan is an extremely original and also a gifted writer. What many out­standing critics reproach her for today are her efforts to entertain and to please too much. Hollywood, Mr. Atchity, is not the symbol of great literary values!

My "choppy style reminds him of a freshman reader," he continues. Freshman readers are usually good books. We used Maupassant, if I do recall, when Mr. Atchity was a freshman.

N ow, about the climax, suspense, dramatic development, characteri-

MOVIES One night he offered her a drink, "You look like you could use some cooling off tonight, baby." "No," she declines, "I'm cool enough al­ready." O'Brien takes this as a slight on his sex-appeal. He shouldn't. Sylvia is just not inter­ested in anyone. She prefers books.

Floozy Ann Sothern will drink anything. Between vodka refills she recalls that "while Sylvia was my roommate, she was a pure kid." Ann tries to forget that she has not been so pure. She orders brandy to chase the vodka and the memo­ries.

Over martinis, Joanne Dru tells Mac that Sylvia formerly worked as a B-girl. Once Sylvia induced a farm-machinery salesman to buy her a "tractor's worth of cham­pagne," which she never even sipped.

Mac finally meets Sylvia and in­vites her to lunch. "Anything to drink?" he asks. "A malted milk?" "No, not now, Maybe later." He stops at a water fountain; she does not. A professor friend serves coffee. Sylvia does not drink any, but she once threatened to throw a potful on an attacking sadist.

Carroll Baker as Sylvia does not drink much; she does not get in­volved much; she would rather read a book. I can understand that a girl would prefer reading to shacking up with Peoria Pudgey. But as rich-girl poetess, torn be­tween Peter Lawford and George Maharis, she should put aside her books, maybe take a drink.

Maharis, as Mac, is always will­ing to imbibe. His is a memorable performance. I hope he makes an­other movie soon-maybe a series vf Alan Macklin Private. Eye films. He and the supporting cast almost make Douglas's bartending palat­able. Unfortunately, the cocktail is named Sylvia.

They will also send information on Carroll's Sylvia blouses as advertised in Har­per's Bazaar, Paul Anka's record­ing of the Sylvia theme, a Lawn and Garden film-tour through Sylvia's rose garden, and an un­breakable-comb ad "f eat uri n g Nancy Kovack combing her hair." Only the last is worth it. Support­ing actress Nancy plays a leggy, near-sighted stripper. She is de­lightful. She has trouble remem­bering she once knew Sylvia. I'll

2'SEHOYA zation and humor: there are mas­terpieces in every national litera­ture where we find none of these "requirement". Les Aventures Hu­maines is not a play, by the way. Because he mentions Sartre and Camus ,let him read La Nausee or L' etranger, etc., and tell us how much humor or suspense he will find there. Irony, yes. Still both of these authors, Nobel Prize win­ners, were awarded the highest literary and artistic recognitions.

The writer of the article also asserts that Pierre's soliloquies leave the reader's head spinning with boredom and he adds philo­sophically "at least Anouilh's ennui is meaningful." I don't see any connection between Pierre's finally rebelling against the obvious hy­pocrisy of this world, and the way he defies its absurdity, and Anouilh's ennui; but I see a con­nection between the boredom of a person who does not understand exactly what is going on in a book he reads and the terrifying sensa­tion it creates, namely to be "bodily translated back into the chicanery of a freshman class."

Maybe it is true that the George­town University faculty is so "un­distinguished in its creative publi­cation." I don't know, but I do know that stUdents, particularly in the College of Arts and Sdences, have a very limited knowledge of French literature. Compared to other universities, so little is of­fered to them in this field. r agree that is not, primarily, their fault.

THE GUNS OF AUGUST Those terrible few days of

August of 1914, which rudely thrust the world into modern his­tory, have beern vividly and po~g­nantly brought to the screen in Nathan Kroll's The Guns of Au-. gust.

Children Play . . . The game of war

catches the last weekend at Brigh­ton. But the war that didn't have to happen was all the while being prepared by slogan-deaf, greed­blind politicos. Perhaps the most poignant and terrible sequence of the entire movie is the invasion of Belgium. A determined king and nation pit their iIl-equiped and ill­prepared army against the greatest war-machine in the world, and by sheer force of spirit and dogged will shatter the myth of German invincibility. The brutality and slaughter of the Teutonic rape of civilization reaches its climax with the needless destruction of Lou­vaine. To see children playing in the rubble of their liomes, to see the ragged lines of Belgian refu­gees, to witness the savage inhu­manity of the Germans on an in­nocent and helpless people is truly a seering experience.

But the martyrdom of Belgium had wakened the world to the ruth­less intent of the German jugger­naut. And the war that was to have been over before the leaves fell instead dragged on until 87% million men had fallen. We live a­gain "the miracle 'Of the Marne," Verdun, the Somme, where millions died for a few miles of useless territory.

But this is the tragic absurdity, the pathetic ignorance, the blind illusion, the terrible reality, the perverse atrocity of The Great War and every war, here brought briIliantly to the screen to make one think and, hopefully, realize.

THE LUCK OF GINGER COFFEY The underlying conception of The

Luck of Ginger Coffey (Mac­Arthur Theatre) contains elements that could easily have propelled the work on a steady COUl'se toward the verge of artistic disaster. These elements are inherent in the plot and characterizations of the film, and they belong to that rich struc­ture of myth and symbol that com­poses the Old Sentimentality. Con­sider: the ne'er-do-well from Dub­lin, the Irish Rogue, makes a new beginning in Canada, the Last Bastion Of Opportunity. He gets a job as proofreader for a Montreal newspaper.

The editor of the paper is Scot­tish, thoroughly, implacably, dis­gustingly Scottish-hard-working, frugal, and suspicious. The editor is so stock a character that he nearly achieves the stature of an archetype. The Irishman loses his job, of course, a.nd loses his wife in the process.

Despite all this, Coffey comes off as an interesting and worthwhile film. Brian Moore's screenplay, which th,e author adapted from Iiis own novel, has strengths that out­weigh its inadequacies. Moore looks squarely at a marriag,e that is on the rocks with an uncolored, dispas­sionate eye. There is no attempt to romanticize or gloss over the un­happiness caused by the mutual selfishness of Coffey and his wife. The relationship between the two is presented with -psychological accur­acy, if not with high, dramatic in­tensity; this accuracy mar k s Moore's handling of the way in which Ginger and his wife mani­pUlate each other through posses­sion of their daughter.

ART

PHILLIPS GALLERY

With the passing decades it be­comes increasingly clear that the amazing flurry of creation in the plastic arts which marked the be­ginning of our century was not an end but a prologue. One of the most pleasant ways of studying this extraordinary period and some of its results is to visit the Phillips Gallery, a private art museum on Massachusetts Avenue, one block up from Dupont Circle.

The Phillips Gallery is an admir­able place to carryon such a study for several reasons. The most im­portant of these is the collection itself, a selection which is com­prehensive, representative, and in the case of some of the most im­portant painters-Rouault and Klee are good examples-as defini­tive as is available on this side of the Atlantic. And the paintings are presented in a unique fashion. The gallery was once a private home, and though it has recently acquired a new wing, the atmosphere of a home has been preserved with car­pets, drapes, and furniture scat­tered throughout.

The pictures themselves tell of a beginning and of some of its con-,; clusions. A large part of the col-'­lection is from the French "Im­pressionist" school-Renoir, Degas, ~ , Sisley, Bonnard, Monet are all rep­resented. The nature of their reo l:.',~.' volt was multifold, but it was pri- r~

marily in the realm of color. Monet, ,'.!~;'.;.~, the most extreme example, painted ~ canvases which became vast, vi· brating expenses of pastels. With Bonnard (who is quite well rep­resented) we find a greater inter­est in form, especially in his Young Woman with a Dog which is composed of a series of super­imposed ovals. But even with him, and with Degas whose After the Bath is a perfect example of the Impressionist fascination with "the moment," even here there is always the obse,ssion with color.

It,is with the "Cubists" that the concern for form becomes a serious one-and most markedly in the work of Braque, represented at the ',<

Phillips by an entire room. Braque and his fellows achieved the ulti· ',' mate element of freedom-the free· :~ dom to create form itself and to '" leave for ever the crippling domin.. ,~ ance of representation. ~

Act III does salvage some sense of dramatic pace, but al­ready too many bits and pieces extraneous to the plot have been tossed in, time sequences have been shoddily, or perhaps just tritely, defined.

DRAMA

I'M TALKING ABOUT JERUSALEM

Washington's Theatre Lobby is a unique institution, a miniature theatre-in-the-%'-round with unus­ual possibilities for providing an intimate link between audience and art. In the past a number of not­able presentations in amateur thea­tre have been staged there. The Lobby's particular merits, however, are all but wasted on its current production of British playwright Arnold Wesker's static I'm Talking About Jerusalem.

A part of the Wesker Trilogy on working class England, Jerusalem supposedly belongs to an English dramatic new wave. The viewer can thus expect the statement of an angry young man. Indeed, Wesker runs the gauntlet of Society, pit­ting his visionary husband-wife team, the Simmonds (Parke God­win and Joan Gale), against a number of types (the capitalistic owner, the spinster aunt, etc.), but only succeeds in turning them too into types.

THE SIMMONDS

And as most of the angry kind, Wesker gradually falls prey to accentuating his statement with self-pity. Perhaps the purification offered by the Simmonds Utopian country house, even in its failure, suggests itself as an antidote to apathy. But the solution is con­trived, rather than derived from the interplay of dialogue and action.

One reason for this is that the play is mostly dialogue, often leaves the actors crippled with lines to say, nothing to do. Coupled with unimaginative staging that shies from using enough varied lighting to better accent different shades of oral dramatic progression, as well as by B-movie type directing, the result is a play shaded only dull gray and hobbling, if at all pro­gressing.

Another is that Wesker, in opt­ing for allegory, has chosen hu­mans as his symbolic vehicle, thus d'enying his characters any con­vincing self-identity. Their frame­work is a simplicity uncluttered with images. Nevertheless images might have been able to merge into an archetype, and Wesker's lesson might have been told without call­ing attention to itself. Instead, though, the author peddles arche­types as life in a Romance that re­fuses to be art because of its own banal, unimaginative terms; and vainly tries to be reality through exploitation of oft-misused rever­sal and catharsis.

Thus confined, the acting at its best can only be adequate. Yet there are further disappointments. Joan Gale changes facial gestures so often that what she says ends up augmenting how she looks, never vice-versa. Richard Davi­son's brief quasi-tragic appearance as Dave's wartime friend, Libby Dobson, generates laughter at a climax in the play, when idealism should have been unmasked, and the very impossibility of communi­cation should have proved its exist­ence. Robert Boylan sometimes ap­pears awkward as the domineering Colonel Dewhurst, delaying lines as if his conscience were manipulating his emotions-mortal sin for the Villain.

Susan Learned as Ada's aunt Esther, comes across more natural­ly than the others, and more nearly approaches saying something be­yond the expected. Shirley Ogus, as the Jewish Mother is gifted with some of the best lines in the play, but these have little to do with Jerusalem:s Meaning, what Wesker never stops trying to say in any number of different words.

Ada says early in the play: "Language isn't any use. We talk one thing and you hear another." Jerusalem's major problem is that Wesker talks so much we hear nothing.

THE BERNARD SHAW STORY The Bernard Shaw Story, pre­

sented at The Washington Theatre Club, joins the list of Shavian pro­ductions for this month in the city. This one man show, artistically handled by Bramwell Fletcher, sets out to reconstruct the life of George Bernard Shaw. The show fails to do this. It is meant to be an autobiographical play, but is not despite the fact that Fletcher gives this illusion in the opening minutes. This show is rather an interesting collection of humorous Shavian critiques upon life.

From the viewpoint of material adaptation arrangement, and pre­sentation, the play is a success. It offers a ,pleasant evening of enter­tainment. However the full dra­matic merit and worth of the show is discolored because of this falsely presented autobiographical illusion. The character that is developed and passed off as the "whole Shaw" is unjust and unfair.

Bramwell Fletcher as George Bernard Shaw calls upon essays, speeches, and letters in the recon­struction of this remarkable life. Yet we only see Shaw as the Wit, as the Critic; and only briefly, as the Playwright. We never see the young, struggling Shaw, nor the socialistic Shaw.

Only once do we get a glimpse of the serious, compassionate Shaw. This is when he reflects upon Ellen Terry. For this one, short, beauti­ful instant, we see him with his mask down. The rest of the eve­ning, he is the entertainer speak­ing to man from his nicely con­structed world of whimsicalism. Now I find Shavian humor very en­joyable, but I see no reason to pass this distinct characteristic off as the "whole Shaw." This character­istic is only one facet of the shining genius.

Bramwell Fletcher is an amazing actor, who has developed a very pleasant stage presence, and con­vincingly displays the cutting wit of Shaw. If one has never read George Bernard Shaw before, one can easily develop a desire to read him now.

THE NEW CHRISTY MINSTRELS

For the second time this year Hoya folk and their long-haired friends gathered to clap and sing along with a nationally popular group of singers. In an effort at Student Council symmetry (last semester the East Campus brought Peter, Paul and Mary to George­town in a well-received concert) the College 'presented the New Christy Minstrels last Friday in McDonough gymnasium.

Mech:mically it would be hard to find a more tightly organized, pro­fessional or harmonious group of musicians than the New Christy Minstrels. They came to Washing­ton fresh from a successful Euro­pean tour, highlighted by a. first prize (for their rendition of "The Hills Are In Flower") at Italy's San Remo singing festival.

In their distinctive, effervescent fashion they squeezed twenty-seven songs into the two hour program. As their name lSuggests, the group is closely akin to a polished min­strel troup; they transform poten­tially ethnic ballads (e.g. "A Cow­boy's Life Is A Lonely Life", "Rail­road Bill", etc.) into their own particular combination of folk, jazz, rock'n'roll and 'pops'. The result is not Baez, put it's not bad either.

Despite the unexplained absence of the group's usual leader and the mysterious disappearance of one of the attractive Minstrelettes ten

minutes after the intermission, the large audience demanded-and got -two encores after the regular concert had ended.

There was something of a tech­nical difficulty with the micro­phones, one of which grated many of the high notes; this· was prob­ably due, in 'part, to an overloud volume. Deaf patrons could have easily turned off their hearing aids and not missed a syllable, and un­fortunately the sound increased proportionately for those who could hear. One of the New Christy Min­strels took sarcastic note of the amplifying system, commently wry­ly, "Every folk singer has his own favorite kind of folksongs and his own favorite kind of microphone."

Their apparently "favorite kind of folksongs" were varied and multinational, by far the best being a powerful Russian ballad, "Good­bye". Other NCM standards in­cluded "Green Green", "Follow the Drinking Gourd", "This Old River­boat", and "Saturday Night".

There was quite a variety of hu­mour too, ranging from a hillbilly toe-tapper, "A Little Bit of Hap­piness" (rendered with a gen-u-ine Arkansas twang), to a Smothers Brothers-type version of "Waltzing Mathilda".

A Minstrel listed three possible approaches to a song like "Mathil­da": a folktype 'tragic', a Holly­wood 'happy', or a palatable com­promise between the two. The group followed the last course, both in the particular song and in their whole program, and the quality of entertainment was enough to more than satisfy. It was, for most of the Hoya folk; though several long­haired friends were heard mumbl­ing of a migration to Philadelphia where Bob Dylan is to perform the 'real thing' next week.

RECORDS

Menotti: The Death of the Bishop of Brindisi [with S c h 0 n b erg: Gurre-Lieder: Song of the WoOO Drive]. Lili Chook-asian (s), George London (b), various choruses, Bos­ton Symphony. Erich Leinsdorf, conductor. RCA LSC 2785 (stereo).

Premiered in May, 1963, Me­notti's new oratorio deals with the Children's Crusade to the Holy Land in 1212. Coming finally to the port of Brindisi the children asked the bishop for his blessing, but now, years later, he lies on his death bed. "Was it not my love which led them to their doom?" he asks. Why was I who loved so purely, cursed with such destruc­tive love?" At the end of the work, the bishop is answered by his own. death: rendering to God what is God's.

I have no qualms in citing this as very probably Menotti's best com.position. His libretto and dra. matics are super:ior to his usual excellence, and, for onc€, the music is of equal calibre. Modernistic atonalities and lyric plain-chant contrast the sufferings of the bishop and the faith of the chil­dren. The performance is excellent in every way. Schubert: Sonatinas (3) for violin and piano, Op. 137. Alexander Schneider (vln) & Peter SerIcin (pf). Vanguard 71128 (stereo).

These three works were written in 1816, when Schubert was 19. Though hardly representative of his best chamber music, they are altogether delightful, quite tune­ful, and, in a small way, very mem­orable. But if one is tempted to belittle these works, try listening to the Menuetto of the 3rd. It's scherzo-like, a I m 0 s t like late Brahms.

T,he catalog's been long in need of a complete r,ecording of these pi€ces, and Schneider (a m.ember of the Budapest String Quartet) and the young (17) Serkin (who played at Georgetown last Novem­ber ) give fine accounts. Very real­istic sound.

NYU Loss Incredible After 22-Pt. Lead

JUST WAITING ... for things to come. The Hoyas play Manhattan in the season finale. Not forgotten is Manhattan's 22-point troucing of Syracuse. (Photo by Bernie Huger)

by Larry KuZyk NYU's 78-73 victory over the Hoyas Thursday night

may have been one of the great team victories in that school's history. For the Hoyas, it was one of the bitterest losses in an already frustrating season. At all events, it was certainly the greatest comeback in Madison Square Gar­den's long history.

• 'Bombers II Trounce c.u. .1Jing-A-lingCllomp.-S II As G. Thompson Stors

by Sam McKnight "This is pro b a b 1 y the

strongest intramural league in the country," says Ed Leary; and last week, Chuck Devlin's team, the Boyle's B 0 m b e r s, AAA Kingpins, proved it with a l'esounding twenty­point road victory over C.U.'s top law school club. The second place Bunnies remained inactive as the J oyboys and the Caliphs meet this week in a clash of the next-to­mighty for third place. In other AAA news, The HOY A salutes the Monks, who notched their first win of the season by defeating the Bulldozers with John Jackson's basket at the buzzer.

Pack In AA competition, Stubby's

Muscle Factory and the Playboys are still the undefeated leaders of the pack. The formerly' unde­feated Tweeds lost a tight battle to the Latin Lovel's despite Fred Snyder's last minute heroics. The pre-season favorite, Drusus's Cen­taurs, were without Fred Craves, who broke his elbow, and Vin Rocque, out sleeping, and lost their second game of the season to the Jokers.

Hot Handed The ranks of the always color­

ful A league were bolstered last week with the addition of the Optimists, who dropped from AA competition. Led by "that man they call Souie," the Optimists con­tinued in tJheir losing tradition as they were defeated in their A debut by the hot handed Dirty Old Men.

In what was probably last week's most exciting single-A tilt, the Ding-A-Lings, paced by Brian Tart and Al Carroll, l'emained unde­feated and held on to their league leadership by eking out a narrow victory over the Thalidomide 5. Both benches emptied as tempers flared in the closing minutes. Ed Moses and John Drury served as peacemakers.

Peacemaker Intramurals ifuis year have been

particuarly well organized, thanks in large part to Leary. And al­though the domination shown by Boyle's Bombers has been discour­aging to a certain extent, to many this has been the most exciting season in many stubby years.

The Violets' victory over the Hoyas was not an upset. The loss was Georgetown's eighth of the year and fifth in a row. It was the Violets tremendous feat of making up twenty-two points in seventeen minutes that turned an apparent rout into a real barnburner for the sparse crowd at the Garden on that cold Thursday night.

Wretched

With but seventeen minutes to go, the Hoyas were firmly in con­trol with a 55-33 lead, thanks in part to the wretched first half play of high scoring junior Stan McKen­zie. LeadIng scorer on the squad, the 6'5'~ McKenzie had all the finesse of a blacksmith in the open­ing twenty minutes as he futilely banged shot after shot off the front ·of the rim. He managed only one point for the half. Once under way in the late going, however, he was a man with a mi'ssion. Inside, he was nearly unstoppable as he wormed his way in and around the Hoya front line for twenty points.

Brown

Their efforts really began to tell in the late going after Jimmy Brown went out on fouls. Soph Bruce Kaplan pulled it ev.en, whip­ping in four long ·strikes. Then Clem Galliard, who has been in New York almost as long as the Garden itself, put it out of reach with ,a brace of foul shots in the 13Jst forty five seconds. Galliard (13 pts.) pulled in fourteen re­bounds, tops for the game.

Twisting

Georgetown controlled play in the first half, almost from the opening tap-off, when Brown found his way between Graham and Dyer for a beautiful, twisting layup. When Jim Barry, (23 pts.) a non­starter, entered the game with nine minutes gone, the Hoyas began to pull away.

Let's Talk It Over

Barry's drives and the steady shooting of Owen Gillen (17 pts.) led the Hoya attack. When Neil Heskin flipped in a fiv.e foot hook shot at the buzzer, the Hoyas led 49-29, and some of the 5,089 fans wandered off to seek other enter­tainment. Those who remained found conversation material for a long time to come.

Zieminski Shines at NY In 1 OOO·Meter Showing; T rack's Ranks Depleted

by Chip Butler Track Coach Steve Benedek

found his two-mile relay team on the sidelines last Saturday at the AAU Championships in NYC, as a result of a misun­derstanding with AA U offi­cials.

On Thursday afternoon Coach Benedek called the AA U and scratched all of his entries except for Bob Zieminski in the 1,000 and the two-mile relay team, as the rest of the team was either sick or injured. The following afternoon Benedek again called the AA U to change the members of his two­mile relay team. At this time the AA U clerk accepted the "post en­try" by which he replaced Nick Spiridakis with Eamon O'Reilly.

Okay?

With this okay the team ran in the semi-finals that afternoon. With this added feeling of security and the assurance of the head referee on Saturday afternoon, the y headed into the ·finals that evening. Then just one hour before the race, while the team was warming up, they were informed that a school had protested and the decision handed down would not allow Georgetown to run in the two-mile relay.

One bright spot in the Cham­pionships was the fine showing of freshman Bob Zieminski in the 1,000. Coach Benedek described his running in the finals as a "mar­velous race against some of the best European and American run­ners.

Zieminski took the lead with two laps to go, but he could not with­stand the onrush of the more ex­perienced runners.

The concellations on Thursday were the result of the many in­juries and sickness among the trackmen. Joe Lynch is still weak from his bout with the flu, and is working out on a limited basis. Eamon O'Reilly was sick when the entries were sent to the AA U ori­ginally, but came back fast and was substituted for Spiridakis when he beat him in the time trials.

and they worry about his knee. This is Jim Barry who two years ago set a George­town season scoring record of 588 points. He then had to sit out a year because of a knee opera­tion and now is back but playing with almost ·an entirely new team.

Jim said his knee is stronger but that it hasn't really been sound ,all year. He also pointed out that he isn't driving UJS much as he used to because our forwards are play­ing further out this y,ear.

The 6-5 veteran is optimistic about next year's team. "We have gained a lot of experience this year and the team is starting to work as a unit because we have learned each other's moves." Com­menting on this season, he ex­plained that "the team was really pressing too much after the losses to St. Joseph 'and SyracUJse."

All America In xecalling his sophomore sea­

son, he "felt the team was depend­ing on him to get 20 to 25 points i.n order to w.in" but this year, "we have more shooters and it is more of a team effort." He averaged some twenty-three points that year, and received honorable men­tion for All-America teams.

Next Year And now that he is married, the

big question is, will he play next year? Barry, since he sat out junior year, has ,a year of eligibility left. "It all depends-if the leg

The second period closely fol­lowed the pattern of the first, with the Hoyas showing a more aggres· sive checking game. By the third period, the Hoyas were at their best, continuing their aggressive checking, led by Ohris Pollen and co-captain Doug Murphy. A'bout half-way through the period the Hoyas averted a shut-out as the teamwork of Dick Griggs and Tommy McDonald produced a goal for the visitors. In defeat, the goalies excelled, with a total of 58 saves. The rest of the team may have been out-played, but never outhustled.

Forfeit

The scheduled game with Colum­bia University for Sunday night resulted in a forfeit victory for the Hoyas. For various and sundry reasons, the Columbians, at the last minute, were unable to assemble a team. The Hoyas however had come to skate, and when word waS received that Columbia had for­feited, the pucksters immediately took to the ice and engaged in a spirited intra-squad game. The Hoyas are now 9-5-1.

L-____________________ WlTH WADE HALA81' __ ---1

The sun is setting later, the lacrosse boys are seen in class with their sticks, so basketball recruiting time is approaching. Listed here are arguments in favor of area recruiting.

Material. "Washington," said the balding man, "boasts of better basketball than any other metropolitan area in the United States." He was hardly referring to college ball, unfortunately. "Look," he said, "there's Fred Hetzel at Davidson. John Austin. Dave Bing. Ollie John­son over at San Francisco. All All-American candidates." Red Auerbach should know. He is perhaps the shrewdest, best recruiter basketball has ever seen.

PerfQ1·mance. Pray, is it Lady Luck that helped Austin score thirty­two points versus Georgetown this year, forty-nine last year? Did Lady Luck marry Dave Bing the morning of the Syracuse game? He collected twelve rebounds, seven assists and twenty points against the Hoyas, a fair output. And Maryland's Gary Ward, how did he manage twenty-five points and thirteen rebounds? Is it a coincidence that Washington area products put on outstanding exhibitions against Georgetown? Or is it not likely that they should play at their best against a hometown team?

Publicity. Austin, Bing and Hetzel, has not the trio received greater mention, been allocated more space in the local papers than any fifteen

> individuals on Georgetown's squad? Washington is terrifically proud of its sports products, should not Georgetown exploit this pride? Did our basketball recruiting team notice the tremendous publicity Ernie Catucci, an area football product, received for the N.Y.U. game while other members of the team exhibiting greater talent were left unnoticed?

Attendance. Dave Bing could point to his own cheering section, of sizeable proportions, when the Hoyas played Syracuse here. In turn, the

I Hoyas could point to the meagre (500) audience for a basketball double­

, header over Christmas, and wonder why. Is it not likely that more than , five hundred would show up, no matter what the opponent, if, say, Tom ; Little or Bernard Williams were playing for Georgetown?

I Crowd Identification. Should not the Hoyas learn a lesson from St.

! Joe's which recruits almost exclusively from the Philly area, and in turn ; is beloved by all of Philly? Why is Washington so apathetic towards col­:. lege basketball? Why so little local identification with Georgetown, when ~ Georgetown has been around for some time?

Recruiting. The material is bountiful and available to constant scru­tiny. It would be difficult for a recruiter to err if he saw a player re­peatedly than if he saw an out-of-stater just once or twice. Cannot a recruiter convince a local player to remain in town if he exploits the fact that a Washington player will receive far greater publicity, have a far greater chance to make an All-America team if he remains in Washington?

Perhaps Georgetown, now 176 years in Washington, should listen to Red Auerbach.

Overheard at Fairfield game, in cynical tone: "High school gym, and they're playing high school ball." Added a disgruntled Hoya fan, "With high school refs." If it weren't for a pretty girl, awful sad evening.

Hoya Notes: In its account of the N.Y.U. game, the New York Times praised Jim Brown as "the finest performer on the court . . . whose play-making and superb leadership drove the Hoyas to their half-time bulge ... a tough, poised little competitior." ... Bruce Stine­brickner, a forward-guard on the freshman team, sent home a 3.6 aver­age-Q.P.I., that is. He is averaging 18.3 points per game .... Denny Cesar's 43 points in the Frosh's 139-115 victory over Ft. Belvoir was a McDonough record.

'l'HE HOYA

Fairfield Displaces Barry's Accuracy, Wins at Foul Line

by John Saunders A capacity crowd for Fair­

fiecrd University's Homecom­ing watched Fairfield edge Georgetown in an 88-84 mis­match. Crippled by scholastic ineligibility, (something Ull­

known at Georgetown), and by injuries, Fairfield was left with a thin squad which averaged 6'0" in height while the average Hoya stood 6'5" tall. This definite height advantage was evident at the very beginning of the game as Steve Sullivan, head and shoulders over his defender, shuffled for position near the basket. However, the Stags made up for their size by deflecting passes and crowding the post men. The small gym a.nd the size of the court lent itself to a nervous, quick, high-school ,style of play. Jim Barry had 17 points .in the first half but Fairfield led 46-44.

Burke In the second half both teams

seemed to settle down. George­town showed a few flashy plays in the early minutes but the steady play of the Stags kept the game about even. Then Fairfield's Pat Burke went into action. Being the Stags' tallest man (6'4"), he found himself guarded by Hol­lendoner. He promptly moved to the outside when he sank basket after basket until Hollendoner was removed.

Burke continued his hot streak giving Fairfield an 11 point ad­vantage with twelve minutes to go. Jim Barry, enjoying his best night of the season, led the George­town comeback. The Hoyas tied it up at 78-78 all with 3:30 remain­ing. The Stags then went into their slow down offelllSe forcing Georgetown to come out on them. Sharp-eyed referees continually found Georgetown players guilty of the most minor fouls as Fairfield won the game on free throws, mak­ing 30 ,of 40 to the Hoyas' 8 for 17. With 54 seconds left after a long jump shot by Barry had brought Georgetown within two points, Jim Lyddy, playing well be­fore his hometown crowd, had an important corner jumper blocked ending the Hoya bid.

Georgetown failed to get off a decent shot although they got the ball twice more, while Fairfield added two more points for a final SCOl.'e of 88-84.

The Hoyas played ,a fair game by recent standards, although it showed once more how 'a zone de­fense can slow the Georgtown offense. The scoring leaders for Fairfield were: Pat Burke with 34 points and Jim Brown, 25; for Georgetown Jim Barry with 30 points and 12 for John Prender­gast. As the buzzer sounded, Fair­field fans swarmed about their team with a ubiquitous joy, hoist­ing winning coach George Bisacca to their shoulders.

Hoyettes Show Hustle In Gallandt Vutory; Shields High With 17

by Clea Raubitchek

The Hoyettes basketball team won their second game in a row without a defeat last Thursday night as they swamped visiting Gallaudet by a score of 37-15. The game got off to a slow start with only five points scored in the first eight minute quarter, all by the George­town girls. However, captain Betty Joy Shields led a 17 point attack in the second quarter, gIVIng Georg.etown a commanding 22-3 lead at half time. The second half was more evenly matched, and many of the Hoyette reserves saw action. Georgetown increased its lead by three points to make the final score 37-15.

DeCoster

Leading scorer for Georgetown was Betty Joy Shields who scored 11 points in the third quarter in­cluding several shots from close-in after quick fakes, and a total of 17 for the game. Marie Castellan contributed 6 baskets good for 12 points and Pat DeCoster added 7 tallies. Once again guards M'arilyn Miles and Mary McCarthy led a strong Georgetown defense. Lenore Beane, freshman forward, played a good hustling game ,and a.dded two free throws to Georgetown's scor­ing effort.

Delgado

The team ,has shown potential, with Beane and Connie Delgado ready to relieve. The two, along with freshmen from all schools, are giving the starters considerable opposition in practice. The team practices twice a week.

2-0

The 37-15 win last week was the second lopsided victory for the team. Two weeks ago, the Hoyettes defeated Montgom.ery Junior Col­lege by 51 points, 62-11. The team may be looking for an undefeated season, with the hardest game probably being Trinity, at home, March 16.

The Hoyettes take on American University February 25 in Mc­Donough Gymnasium. The contest is at 8:15.

13 shots from the field, in the first half. Bob Holder canned 20 points, most of them com­ing in the second half.

Jeff W oepel started off the scoring with a nice drive, and the Hoyas just continued to out­class the Cardinals the rest of 1ihe game, enjoying a 54-42 half-time edge. Rusty Renaudin contributed his hot hand from the top of the key and some fine drives at the end of' a couple of fast breaks.

Slaughter

Catholic U. just didn't seem as though it could sustain its offense, although Ron Krasinski did keep them in the game in 1ihe first half, and Bob Cioffari got hot in the second, but they could not keep up with the scoring of Cesar, Holder, and the fast-breaking of Renaudin and Mike Keesey.

In the second game last week, Fort Belvoir's highly touted team was slaughtered in a 139-115 deic­sion. Denny ,Cesar again was high for the Frosh, wi1ih 43 points, giv­ing him a total of 136 in the past four games. Keesey, Cesar, and Woeppel did much of the early scoring, in this free-shooting exhi­bition.

Bursts

By virtue of two bursts, of 8 and 11 points, the Frosh were up 35-17 with only 10 minutes left in the first half. The half-time tally was an almost unbelievable 69-54.

Boifu teams came out of the dres­sing rooms and picked up where they had left off. Georgetown kept its momentum and gradually built up a 34-point lead with only 5:10 rem a i n i n g. Then both teams matched basket for basket until the 1 :40 mark, when Renaudin scored the last GU points. Then Frank Rowser, who was high for Belvoir with 33, and Bill Fox com­bined for ten straight points. The loss now gives Fort Belvoir a 28-5 record.

Said Coach Dino Lopata: "It was just a matter of winning one or two games before we started rolling. Now we've won f{}ur straight. The tough one, that's Mackin." Then he added, "I wish the boys would start thinking de­fense, though." Then quickly, "I'll take 140 points any day though." He burst into laughter.

Objector YR President Tom Pauken pre­

sented a view completely antithe­tical to that of Brown and Mause. His basis was primarily that of the significance of political inaction during college years. He explained that he and the majority of G.U. students are against the "intellect­ual set" that is leading the liberal movement in U.S. politics. The rea­son for their dissatisfaction is the failure of the intellectuals to pro­vide answers to basic problems of the country.

The "anti-intellectual set" stu­dent of Georgetown may seem apa­thetic to some people, because of his refusal to take part in demonstra­tions or party campaigning. In re­ality he has actually made a com­mitment in his mind to conserva-tive principles, and although the student is silent lIlOW, "involvement will come later" when he will be­come a community leader.

The discussion eventually led to a debate upon the decision of the IRC to invite the Russian ambassa­dor to speak at G.U. this spring. The intensity of the discussion was a definite indication that the in­vitation to the Russian ambassa­dor will again be a burning issue at Georgetown.

What does it take to "spark" a man to his very best . . . to bring out the fullest expression of his ability and training? At Ford Motor Company. we are convinced that an invigorating business and professional climate is one essential. A prime ingredient of this climate is the stimulation that comes from working with the top people in a field ... such as Dr. James Mercereau. Jim Mercereau joined our Scientific Laboratory in 1962. Recently, he headed a team of physicists who verified aspects of the Quantum Theory by creating a giant, observable quantum effect in superconductors. This outstanding achievement

was the major reason the U. S. Junior Chamber of Commerce selected Dr. Mercereau as one of "America's Ten Outstanding Young Men of 1964. " Your area of interest may be far different from Dr. Mercereau's; however, you will come in contact with outstanding men in all fields at Ford Motor Company. We believe the coupling of top experience and talent with youth and enthusiasm is stimulating to all concerned. College graduates who join Ford Motor Company find themselves very much a part of this kind of team. If you are interested in a career that provides the stimulation of working with the best, see 'Our representative when he visits your campus. We think you'll be impressed by the things he can tell you about working at Ford Motor Company.
