To alleviate the burden of
the University Administration
and to enable the complaints
of the students to be heard,
the Student Council hascreated
a Grievance Committee.
This Committee will provide
the students with a
means by which they can
su~gest reasonable and constructive
critil;isms in regard
to various aspects of the
campus-mixers, food, intramural
athletics.
, As an aid and inducement
for the'student b9dy, the Student
Council is installing a
Suggestion Box in Xavier

purpose.
It is hoped the students

(Author of "I Was a Teen-age Dwarf', "The Many
Loves of Dobie GiUis", etc.)
And speaking of tests, wi makers of Marlboro put our
cigarette through an impressive number before: we send
it to the market. But ultimately, there is only one test
that counts: Do !!!.!! like it? We think you will.
HIGH TEST, LOW TEST, NO TEST
Just the other nightJ was saying to the little woman, "Do you
think the importance of tests in American colleges is being
overemphasized?" (The little 'woman, incidentally, is not, as
you might think, my wife. My wife is far from a little woman.
She is, in fact, almost seven feet high and ,heavily muscled.
She is a full-blooded Chiricahua Apache and holds the world's
hammer-throw record. The little woman I referred to is someone
we found crouching under the sofa when we moved into
our apartment several years ago, and there she has remained
ever since. She never speaks, except to make a kind of guttural
clicking sound when she is hungry. Actually, she is not too
much fun to have around, but with my wife away at track meets
most of the time, at least it gives me somebody to talk to.)
But I digress. "Do you think t!le importance of tests in
American colleges is being overemphasized?" I ·said the other
night to the little woman, and then I said, "Yes, Max, I do
think the importance of tests in American colleges is being
overemphasized." (As I have explained, the little woman does
not speak, so when we have conversations, 1 am forced to do
both parts.) • '
.. To get back to tests-sure, they're important, but let's not
alIow them to get too important. There are, after all, many
qualities and talents that simply can't be measured by quizzes.
Is it right to penalize a gifted student whose gifts don't happen
to be of the academic variety? Like, for instance, Gregor
Sigafoos?
Gregor, a freshman at the New Hampshire College of Tanning
and Belles Lettres, has never passed a single test; yet all who
know him agree that he is studded with talent like a ham with
cloves. He can, for example, sleep standing up. He can do a
perfect imitation of a scarlet tanager. (I don't mean just do
the bird calls; I mean he can fly South in the winter.) He can
pick up B-B's with his toes. He can say "Toy boat" three times
fast. He can build a rude telephone out of two emptylMarlboro
packs and 100 yards of butcher's twine. (Of all his impressive
accomplishments, this last is the one Gregor likes to do best
-not building the telephone, but emptying the Marlboro
packs. Gregor' doesn't just dump the Marlboros out of the
pack. He smokes them 'one at a time-settling back, getting
oomfortable, savoring each tasty puff. As Gregor often says
with a winsome smile, "By George, the makers of Marlboro
took their time finding this fine flavor, this great filter, and by
George, I'm going to take my time enjoying 'em !")
Well, sir, there you have Gregor Sigafoos-artist, humanist,
. philosopher, Marlboro smoker, and freshman since 1939. Will
the world-so desperately in need of talent-ever benefit from
Gregor's great gifts? Alas, no. He is in colIege to stay.
But even 1p.ore tragic for mankind is the case of Anna Livia
Plurabelle. Anna Livia, a classmate of Gregor's, had no talent,
no gifts,' no brains, no personality. All she had was a knack for
taking tests. She would cram like crazy before a test, always
get a perfect score, and then promptly forget everything she had
learned. Naturally, she graduated with highest honors and
degrees by the dozen, ,but the sad fact is that she left college

Though unorganized and only

of students can -get together for

with many repereussi'ons.
Despite.the validity of many" of
the complJalints, many things
were forgotten in the rush to
town. It seems that for most
people, the boycott was more of
a "fun thing" ,than a semous and
thougihtful protest. Compare
wh'at actulaHy went on with the

story gave the impression ;that

ASPECT
THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY' II:
To investigate the problems confronting the academic com-'
munity, it ~ou1d be wise to divide that general group into three
specific areas: ~dent body, faculty, and administration. These
specific ar¢ have their own problems, aud also prob!ems invclvinithe
other two. Undefined areas of authority, Gommunioations
or the lack of it, and selfish aims of each g.roup fcr its
own' benefit are the main areas of inter-group problems.
THE REAL PROBL~S
In the last ASPECT, we saw that the ideal of the academic
community was to produce men with ideas - ideas that 'would
help them and those around them. The student should arrive
at these ideas. through a program of liberal arts, encompassing
tlhe bes't of western thought: So much for the ideal. The real is, Ias -all reality is, short of the ideal. No :9ystem is perfect; but no
sys-tem is unperfectable, either. _That there is room for improvec
ment i~ almost obvious.

that the Cardinal Key

of having a live stag on campus
due to excessive costs and several

However ,in place of this animal
the Key is looking into the
possibility of obtaining a bronze

Lectures For German Club
OctobeJ; 24, 1962
By RICHARD ~. BARICKO.
. Mr. Palko Lukacs, professor
·of fine arts,recently gave an
illustrated lecture for the German
Club. Reproduotions of
some of the works of the German
masters such as Durer,
Cranach, Holbein, Grunewald,
and other German artists, includin'g
,those of our own century,
were used to show the role
·that German paintings have
played in Symbolism, Impressionism,
Realism, and Cubism.
Mr. Lukacs"~who is Hungarian
by birth, spent the early part of
his career as an artist studying
in Vienna at the State Academy
of Fine Arts School of Masters.
With this' world renowned art
center as his enviromnent Palko
Lukacs began to develop what
was to be recognized as ·a versatile
but fully controlled style.
Leaving Vienna Mr. Lukacs next
went to the art center of the
world, Paris, where he studied
painting with Andre Lhote.
Having completed what we
might call his formal studies
Palko Lukacs returned to his

APPLICATIONS:·AVAILABLE FOR EUROPEAN STUDIES
Brochure Available
A descriptive brochure on
the two programs is available
from the Institute of European
Studies, 35 E. Wacker Drive,
Chicago. The Institute, a nonprofit
educational' institution,
also conducts full-year programs
in Vienna and Freibtirg
and in Paris. There is no spring
program in Paris.
Officials said students will be
led by academic guides on fieldstudy
trips in western Europe.
Students in 'the Vienna program
will visit England, France,
Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland,
.Austria, Germany, Italy
and .Spain, while those in the
Freiburg program will travel in
Germany, Switzerland arid Italy.
It was pointed out, however,
that the study trips are not
mere 'tours. They are strictly
subordinated to classwork and
are planned as integral parts of
the overall educatio.nal program. .
The 'Institute said that more,
than 200 p-.S. colleges and universities

REFL;ECTIONS
DespIte occasiop.al. reassuring sPeeches coming from Wash-illgton
and clearly intended as soporifics, yoU: will find very few '
I
people in ,thiS. country who can say honestly that th,ey believe'
-we are doing as well as we should in our global confliet with
Communism. Everyone can see that there. is 'a problem, and
everyone seems to have his own theory of the reason for the
pI1oblem. Allow me to put forth one more theory, o'ne that finds
its source 'in a' type of Catholicism that is comirig to be called
absolutist and reactionary.
Before you can accept my theory, you must agree that the
Woest is involved in a real struggle with Communism. lFor some,
-this 1irst step' is a big hurdle.) This .struggle takes many forms:
diplomatic, mili~ry, etc. But no matter what its form, it is
real, and it is useless fo dism~s the Whole thing. by saying that
in a 'struggle such as the Cold War no one will ·win; this is
rank obscurantism, and far from engendering the .type of....coolheadedness
its proponents claim is so necessary, it will promote
nothing mQre than a spirit of resignation, of passivity, 'of acceptance
of defeat. The nature of the struggle, though it is never
simple, can be reduced to these terms: a clash between Christianity
- or Judaeo-<Christianity - and atheism. The outcome will
have an effect on many millions of souls, on the freedom of these
millions to worship God openly and without fear. What conflict
could be more fundamental, and more demanding of a definite
outcome?
A corollary to the admittance of the fact of the struggle
and the necessity for the West to engage in it on the terms of
its commitment to Christianity is the negation of the possibIlity
of co-existence. Secretary~GeneralU Thant Of the United Nations
predicts that there will ultimately be a synthesis of the two
great powers, and that- they will co-exist peacefully as they
grow closer and' closer together, until they are one and. the same.
Pschologist Erich Fromm, in "May Man Prevail", says that Soviet
Russias is a conservative, managerial state, and that our dif)'erence
from them is so minute .as to be msignificant. These two men
are leaders of the modern political and intellectual world; yet
they speak- nonsense. Prolonged co-existence with Soviet Russia
is not only not disrable; it is not possible, unless we concede
defeat.
These preliminary considerations provide a basis for an
explanation of our failure to cope with Communism. We are
fighting it - when we do fight it - on the wrong terms, on
their terms. We engage in missile races, nuclear races, arms'
races of all descriptions, and worry about "gaps". This is necessary;
but is' it enough? Is it even enough to boast of our lead
in consumer welfare, which is unquestionable, no matter how
vast the "missile gap" may sometimes seem? Why are we not
concerned with a "truth race"? We have it; they do not; we
have rev~aled, divine truth; they do not: Why has this not
become our battle-cry, why have we not vowed, with all the
determination we man muster, to carry the truth to the people
who ,d<Jn't have it, and to eradicate from the face of- the earth
the impediments to their gaining the truth?
0' The answer is simple: We no longer believe in the truth.
Our basic assumptions are almost identical with those of our
enemy. Under such conditions, the will to win becomes meaningless.
The Communist theory of materialism holds out the
I
promise of an eartJhly paradise; the modern liberalism of America
very seldom considers anything important that does not have
to do with the betterment of someone'g material welfare. For
all practical purposes; the underlying theme of CommuniSm and
that of secularist liberalism are one and the same: the only significclnt
advance is the material advance. If the Pope can condemn
Communism and even "moderate socailism~' because they
"l<JOk on the social order and human life as being bounded by
time (thus leadirig them) to take as their exclusive objective
man's' welfare on earth" (Mater·' et Magistra, #34), then surely
modern Wester.n society is to be condemned also.
This is the source of our ,paralysis. Our long term goal is
identical with that of our enemy: a material paradise on this
earth. This is surely a· predicament, to find yuorself engaged in
a life and death struggle for thelr'minds and souls of men, when
the ideas and id'eals you proposE¥ to use as weapons are essentially
the same as those of your enemy. Why fight?

"The great misunderstanding,"

because of the widely-held
belief that Catholics love authoritarianism,
but on the contrary,
because there is such tremendous
individualism among Cath-,

for a 14-0 victory. In the tightest
game of the season thus far
Baldino and Poole duel€d it out
to a 6-6 tie. The going was tough
as junior Pat Hurley's team succumbed
to the strong Hintelmann
troupe by a 12-0 margin.
However, a win over Duplessie
served' to even it off at .500.
Senior Jim Poole's squad lost to
a spirited Curtin team by a 13-7
score, and grounded out a tie
with Baldino.
Junior Jim Duplessie has lost
2 games without a win, but is
definitely not out of the race.
Junior Pete Cavanaugh, champion
of the freshman-sophomore

When George Bisacca was nam~d athletic director,

Another Jesuit with wham I tarlk-ed sarid rin so many

So far in the Cross Country
season, the performance of the
Stag harriers has been below
par. In its first two meets the
contingent' was edged by the
University of Hartford 25-30 and
then shut out by Boston College
15-48.
In the first meet which was
held on the state highway adjacent
to the Hartford campus, unfamiliarity
with the course and
the absence of sophomore Rich
Anastasia contributed to Fairfield's'
close defeat. R. Hannelius
and P. Bjarkman led th~ home
squad across the line and these
runners were followed by Fairfield's
Mickey Kinney and Peter
Garry. The other scorers for the
losers included Larry Longua,
6th, Jimmy Daly, 7th, and Jerry
Norton, 10th.
On Columbus Day the team
traveled t{) Frankl~n Park in
Boston, Mass. and took on their
fellow Jesuit foe. The Eagles
have their best team in many
years and the Stags faced this ~
with only five, men. Boston College
placed their first nine men
ahead of Peter Garry and he
was followed by the rest of the
visitors including Kiqney, Longua,
Norton and Fay.
