April 24 Selective Service
Test
All eligible students who in­tend
to take the Selective Ser­vice
College Qualification Test
in 1952 should file applications
at once for the April 24 adminis­tration,
Selective Service Na­tional
Headquarters advised to­day.
An application and a bulletin
of information may be obtained
at any Selective Service local
board. Following instructions in
the bulletin, the student should
fill out his application immedi­ately
and mail it in the special
envelope provided. Applications
must be postmarked no later
than midnight, March 10, 1952.
Early filing will be greatly to
the student's advantage.
Results will be reported to the
student's Selective Service local
board of jurisdiction for use in
considering his deferment as a
student, according to Education­al
Testing Service, which pre­pares
and administers the Col­lege
Qualification Test.
Since the original system for
collecting the student assessment
fee has not been effective, the
Student Council has devised a
new system whereby that one
day will be set aside for the col­lection
of the fee.
On the day designated, repre­sentatives
of the Student Coun­cil
will be stationed at all the
entrances to Xavier Hall before
the first period in the morning.
This plan has the approval of
the Dean of the College, and the
Council has arranged a publicity
program so that all students will
know of the plan.
There is a complete record of
those who have paid and they
will be able to enter the building
by either presenting their re­ceipt
or by giving their name to
the representataive.
The reasons for the Student
Assessment Fee have been re­emphasized
by Student Council
President Harold Mullen. The
Student Council has financial ob­ligations
beyond its current
sources of income and with the
growth of the school, the re­sponsibility
of the council has
increased. Dues to the N.F.C.C.S.
must be paid. There are gifts
and loans to classes and activ­ities.
Through the suggestion of the
Italian Club, the Council is con­sidering
joining the Metropoli­tan
Opera Guild so that students
of Fairfield may receive reduced
rate tickets.
The Student Council has
adopted this new plan because
it will give everyone an oppor­tunity
to pay the fee and it will
immediately supplement the
Council treasury.
Dr. Ross Hoffman
To Lecture Here
Next Thursday
Final Collection Day For
Student Fee February 27
The Student Council has informed The STAG that
Wednesday, February 27, 1952, has been set aside as
the "final" collection day for the Student Fee of one
dollar. On that day, representatives of the Council will
be stationed at each entrance to collect the dollar from
all those who have not paid.
DR. ROSS HOFFMAN
The third in an extended
series of lectures, honoring the
name of Cardinal Robert Bellar­mine
will be presented next
Thursday during the sixth per­iod

hall. Doctor Ross Hoff­man,
noted political scientist and
literary author will place Ed­mund
Burke into an honorable
niche in the great Catholic tra­dition
by means of a lecture
entitled, "Burke and the Catho­lic
Tradition."

and has been for many years
Professor of Modern History at
Fordham University. He receiv­ed

Hartford Club
Announces Plans
For Scholarship
Father Mahan, Asst. Dean
of Freshman at Fairfield Uni­versity,
has acknowledged a let­ter
received from Fred Roback,
secretary of the Hartford Area
Club, which stated that the club
has successfully completed its
scholarship purse and is pre­pared
to present it to the school
for the next Fall term.
The scholarship is for five
hundred dollars and will be
awarded to a deserving college
aspirant (or aspirants) of the
Hartford Area. Although plans
are not yet completed, the Hart­ford
Club is working in conjunc­tion
with the administration to
determine whether the fund
should be awarded to one appli­cant
or to divide the scholarship
between two or more persons,
thus giving more than one high
school graduate the opportunity
to attend college.
This is the first scholarship
offered by the Hartford club and
it is intended to be granted an­nually
providing that the fund
raising programs are as success­ful
as they have been in the
past. The chief source of rev­enue
has been the Fairfield Uni­versity
Glee Club Concert pre­sented
annually at Hartford
under the sponsorship of the
Hartford Area Club.
It is expected that the Fair­field
legislators will once again
be a very influential factor in
the C.I.S.L. session as several
Fairfield men hold legislature
chairmanships. John Relihan '52,
will act as Chairman of the Edu­cation
Committee while John
Keegan, '53, and Ronald Homza,
'53, will serve as Chairmen of
the Constitutional Amendments
and House Welfare Committees.
James Aspinwall, '52, by virtue
of his position as Rules Director,
has controlling jurisdiction over
the Bills, Procedure, Represen­tation
and Registration Commit­tees.
It must be added that the
success of the Public Affairs
Club is due largely to the active
enthusiasm and interest of Rev.
Gabriel Ryan, S.J., moderator of
the club.
Committee member delegates
include: House Agriculture and
Elections, Tim 0 thy Cronin;
House Finance and Appropria­tions,
Thomas Martin; House
Judiciary, Glenn Hawman; Sen­ate
Labor, John Fray; House
Motor Vehicles and Liquor Con­trol,
Horace Bridgewater; House
Public Welfare, John Boyle.
Public Affairs Club Solons; "fto
Attend CISL At State Capital
On Thursday, March 6, a contingent of Solons from
the Public Affa~rs Club will travel to the State Capitol
in Hartford to represent Fairfield University at the
annual session of the Connecticut Interscholastic Stu­dent
Legislature. Eighteen Connecticut colleges are
sending representatives to this session which adjourns
on Sunday, March 8.
The C.I.S.L" an educational
endeavor, offers college students
the experience necessary for a
practical understanding of the
political activities of the General
Assembly. It enables them to
take part in activities which are
of a similar nature to the work­ings
and proceedings of the Con­necticut
State Legislature.
This year Fairfield's represen­tatives
will expend their ener­gies
in committee rooms and on
the assembly floor to introduce
and pass three pieces of legisla­tion:
The first bill endeavors to
proclaim elction day as a legal
holiday with the purpose in
mind of increasing the voting
percentage of the eligible voters;
To insure safer working condi­tions
for the working man, the
second bill submitted will re­quire
any employer who employs
50 or more employees to have
a medical doctor or a registered
nurse in attendance at all times
that employees are at work; The
final draft provides for the re­cognition
of public school teach­ers'
representatives for collec­tive
bargaining purposes and for
the arbitration of disputes.
From one Joe to Another
Congratulations, Joe!
U.S. Marine Corps
Announces Program
For Undergraduates
Undergraduates of Fairfield
University are eligible for en­rollment
in the Platoon Leaders
Class Program of the Marine
Corps. This program leads to a
commission as a second lieuten­ant
in the Marine Corps Re­serve
upon graduation and re­quires
the minimum amount of
service prescribed by law,
twenty-four months, after date
of commission.
The principal advantages of
this program are that it guar­antees
the student's college car­eer,
it requires only two sum­mers
of training (6 weeks each
summer with pay), it does not
require any military training
during the aca'demic year, it
gives five months additional
training after date of commis­sion.

On Friday night, February 9, 1952, Joe Kehoe be­came
the first Fairfield basketball player to hit 1,000
points. The foul shot which gave him the record was
made in the second quarter of the game between "The
Stags" and St. Francis College of Brooklyn. The game
was stopped momentarily and Coach Hanrahan pre­sented
Joe with the game ball. The large crowd in
attendance gave him a tremendous ovation as the an­nouncement
was made. At half time, Joe McEnany,
president of the Senior class, presented Joe with a
trophy from the Senior class.
When Captain Joe made the ---------------------------­select
circle of 1000 point scores,
it was after four years of earnest
effort on behalf of the team,
through the four seasons, the
totals ran, as follows: In fresh­man
year, Joe led the first var­sity
team in the school's history
with 307 points in 23 games for
a season's average of better
than 13 points per game; in his
sophomore year, Joe again lead
the team with 233 points in 23
games for an average of a little

"THE ACTS OF ASCENDING AND DESCENDING THE SAME
FLIGHT OF STAIRS ARE NOT INHERENTLY EVIL, NOR
ARE THEY CONDUCIVE TO EXCESSIVE CONFUSION
OR LOSS OF TIME"
PROOF OF FIRST PART OF THESIS: If the stairs were built
not only for ascending but descending, then they have a potency
for both acts, which may not be considered evil. The stairs were
built for ascent and descent.
Therefor'e-
MAJ:: Any potency for an act or the fulfillment thereof, is a
perfection, not an evil. While it is true that the stairs
themselves do not possess the ability to climb up and
down themselves, the potency in this case, it must be
concered, is more of the nature of an invitation. Even
the most abandoned skeptic will concede that a flight
of stairs yearns, almost begs, to be climbed and con­versely
they do likewise to be descended. It depends
of course whether a person is at the top or bottom.
MIN.: Upon consultation with recognized experts in the field
of building stairs, it is found that they are in unanimous
agreement that stairs are built both for going up and
coming down. In fact, upon raising the question to a
carpenter, the interrogator may receive the answer
"What are ye, a wise guy?" and receive a hammer in
the cranial structure for his trouble.
PROOF OF SECOND PART OF THESIS: Descending and ascend­ing
the same flight of stairs are not conducive to excessive con­fusion
nor loss of time if these acts expedite passage from class­room
to classroom. But they do expedite passage.
Therefore-
MAJ.: Evident.
MIN.: This is evident from experience. Many a time and oft,
has a student, pushed by the milling throng and lost
in meditation, descended beyond his destined floor. In
such a case said student was forced to go all1lhe way
to the basement, fight his way through a solid mass of
masticating humanity and, besplattered with food, make
his way up a flght of stairs at least two leagues distant
from his place of descent. On the other hand if he were
allowed to retrace his steps, much time and energy
would be saved and possibly, he might reach class on
time.
COR.: Moreover, when a student is not left the choice of ascent
or descent on a given flight of stairs, it tends to destroy his
initiative; his ability to make decisions. He becomes one of the
herd and follows the crowd.
SCHOL.: Descending the stairs against an ascending crowd is
a wonderful form of athletic expression. It can be safely held that
a person who has managed to reach the corroded atmosphere of
the basement after a descent from the top floor is blessed with
the talents of a professional fullback.
DIFFICULTY:
"Ascending and descending the same flight of stairs" is a
contradiction."
Therefore-
ANSWER: (Tch, Tch, Father, such sophistry!) Descending
and ascending at the same time is a contradiction, we admit­although
it has been this author's experience to seem to do both.
We distinguish the statement and admit it only if the time is
considered. CF. VOLTAIRE, DESCARTES, KANT and HUME.
Avoid CUNNINGHAM and that nasty universal skepticism.
Business Club
To Hold Dinner;
Pians Activiti,es
The Business Club, at is recent
campus meeting, announced its
guest speaker for the month of
February. The Club will be host
to Mr. Manuel Rodriquez, Pur­chasing
Agent for Remington
Rand, Inc., Shaver Division. The
dinner meeting will be held
Wednesday, February 27th, 6:30
p.m., at the Hitching Post Inn,
Bridgeport. Mr. Rodriquez will
speak to the Club members and
their guests about the "Methods
used by a Purchasing Agent in
modern Business." In addition to
his duties at Remington Rand,
Mr. Rodriquez is very active in
the Bridgeport area. He is a
member of the Purchasing
Agents' Association here in
Bridgeport and currently presi­dent
of the Foremen's Associa­tion
at Remington. As a purchas­ing
agent he is considered an
authority in the field and has
written several magazine artic­les
on the subject. He also
speaks extensively to business
groups. Prior to assuming his
position at Remington Rand Mr.
Rodriquez was associated with
General Electric Inc. for several
years.
The February dinner meeting
was among several items men­tioned
at the campus meeting
by Board Chairman John Mes­ter.
A tentative schedule for the
remainder of the year was out­lined
and upon confirmation
from the Board of Directors will
be published. Included in this
schedule was a Club Social
which is under investigation by
a committee composed of John
Connell, Ronald Hunts, Robert
Walsh, Owen Groark, and Joe
Gabriel. The election of Club
Officers for next year was also
discussed and it was agreed that
nominations would be in order
the last Wednesday of April
with the election the first Wed­nesday
of May.
Harold Mullen, President of
the Student Council, has an­nounced
the formation of a com­mittee
to draw up a constitution
for the Student Council. The
committee includes nine Council
members and four men from the
Student Body.
Those appointed are as fol­lows:
Robert Walsh, Robert Con­roy,
John H. Welch, Thomas
Bepko, Timothy Cronin, Paul
Tremont, Gerald Leblanc, John
Whalen, John Leonard, John
Relihan, Dominic Autuori, Wil­liam
McGrath and George Jae­ser.
The Council has received,
through the courtesy of the Al­bertus
Magnus Student Govern­ment
and the NFCCS a number
of constitutions as well as a
model constitution, and it is ex­pected
that these will be used
as a basis for the Fairfield docu­ment.
Mullen also invited any mem­ber
of the Student Body who
feels that he could contribute to
the Constitution to attend the
meetings which will be held
commencing next week.

On Thursday, February 14, the
Education department of Fair­field

the Southern Fairfield County
Superintendents Association, at
the monthly meeting of the or­ganization,
held in Berchmans

negative.
In the first place the Council is usually criticized
not for things which it does, but rather for things which
it does not do. In fact it is often accused of doing nothing
at all. The second characteristic is also negative; we
have yet to hear any constructive criticism dir~cted
towards the Council. It seems that many disagl'ee with
its operation, and yet none offers suggestions for im­provement.
Such a criticism is of little use; it shows
faults, but does not offer improvements; it tears down,
but leaves no plans for rebuilding; it shows the errors
of the past, but does not attempt to correct them.
Now, why has the Council been so criticized? Un­derlying
this criticism there are two basic motives. First,
the Council is limited in its power and authority. We
would not expect the Student Council to set academic
requirements, and yet many times it is expected to in­tervene
in matters which are just as clearly in the hands
of the Administration. We must realize that its scope
is limited. We feel that this is as it should be; that the
Council should only have control over the minor and
the social problems of our school life while the more
important phases rest in the hands of the Administra­tion.
Secondly, the Student Council has been limited in
the financial field. During the past two years the
Council has been losing money at such a rate that its
treasury would be bankrupt by the end of this school
year! The sources of income are few and small, while
the mouths of expenditures are many and large. Many
projects .the Council could not undertake because it
lacked the necessary funds. And so it proposed the
Student Tax to alleviate this situation. This, we feel,
is a step forward, a constructive method of solving its
major problem. If this program is succesful we feel
there will be a definite impl'ovement in the operation of
the Student Council.
In the past we have -criticized, but offered no im­provement.
At Jast a solution has been put forth and if
we are to expect an improvement we must support the
means of attaining it.
We do not say that the criticism directed towards
the Council has been completely unjust. We do claim,
however, that this criticism has been negative, that little
thought has been given to the problems of the Council,
and that the Student Tax offers, at least, a partial
solution of these difficulties.
In the past there has been much criticism of our
Student Governn:ent. This cr~ti~ism is usually ~arked CO·UnCle) Constletutleon

Values Scientific Study
Seattle carries out the tradi­tional
practice of the Church
and of the Jesuits in regard to
the importance laid to the pur­suit
of scientific work. The in­tention
of both the Church and
of the Jesuits in regarding sci­ence
as of prime importance and
of great necessity is that,
through such efforts, "valuable
contributions might be made to
the upbuilding of the Body of
Christ."
Because of this the Jesuits
have trained the members of
their Society "not only in the
preparation of the altar, but also
in a learning and culture ade­quate
to combat modern errors."
The present faculty at Seattle
bears out this strong conviction.
Ten of its departments are staff­ed
with men holding Doctor of
Philosophy degrees. These men,
and those others who make up
Seattle's teaching staff, are help­ing
to make the University "a
center of learning from which a
greater understanding of the
Faith will flow."
Seattle University is the focal
point for students from lands
and states near and far. Its stu­dents
come from all parts of this
country, from Alaska, the Phil­ippines,
and from Hawaii.
Such remote places as Sweden,
Belgium, Italy, and South
America are represented on this
Washington campus also. Such
graduates can be found in trades
and professions throughout the
world, carrying the spirit they
received at Seattle wherever
they may go.

During World War I the class­es

College High School were moved
to a new site. Then in 1931 it
was decided that the high school
and college should be separated,
and the College was returned
to its original building.
Seattle University of today is
a far cry from the original
school of the two Fathers. Today
it offers more than 200 subjects
and awards degrees in the School
of Commerce, in the College of
Arts and Sciences, the School of
Education, the School of Nurs­ing,
the School of Engineering,
and the Graduate School of Arts

a full-time night school.
The teaching staff at the Uni­versity
numbers more than 150

Bishop Fenwick next
turned to his sole remaining
problem, namely, who was to
teach there? He invited the
Fathers of the Society of Jesus
to organize the courses of study
according to the curricula of
their already established college
at Georgetown, and gave them
complete control of the teach­ing.
Classes were begun in 1843
and were held in the seminary
building, and in 1844 the first
college building was completed.

In conclusion let me state
that the select group of basket­ball
players that hit the 1000

a slender, six foot for­ward.
Rather they are usually
the seven foot tall variety that
has but to stand under the hoop

think that when you realize
these things it makes Joe's feat
much more impressive. Natural­ly,
it is safe to assume that oth­ers
will arrive at, and most prob­ably
exceed the final figure that
Joe accounts for. However, it
seems to me that Captain Joe's
figure will stand alone as a tri­bute
to a good basketball play­er,
and a great guy.
Fairlield 65. New Haven 51
The Red Stags, with Bobby

the Owls of New Haven
State Teachers College, at the

Stags opened up an eleven point
lead in the first two periods,
after Gerwien had broken an
early 3-3 tie and were never
headed thereafter. Coach Jim
Hanrahan used ten players in
the contest as the Fairfield Five
coasted to their seventh triumph
of the campaign. The Men in
Red scored only one more field
goat' than the Teachers but
counted for 17 out of thirty foul
shots, as against five out of
twenty-three for the visitors. Al
Karpinski was the leader for
New Haven with 12 points. In
the preliminary game, the Fair­field
Prep five defeated the Jun­ior
Varsity, 57-54.
Kehoe had given Fairfield a 49­41
lead, the Teachers bounced
back strongly. With Henkel be­ing
the main offensive star, they
crept within two points 51-49.
Finally, baskets by Lane and
Kehoe put The Stags ahead
again and the final whistle saw
our club the victor. Fred Lane
was the offensive star for the
winners with 19 points, followed
by Suchenski with 15. Henkel

The Stags ran into an extreme­ly

on February 8, and absorbed a
thorough 66 to 49 defeat. The
Terriers got off to a 14-5 early
lead, playing possession basket­ball,

In the second half, the much

Harry Marmion is Chairman
of the Junior Smoker which will
be held the following night. It
is expected that the Smoker will
feature a Sports theme, with the
possibility that some "local tal­ent"
will perform for the enjoy­ment
of those who attend. Plans
for this event have not yet been
completed.
The Junior Prom, headed by
John McDougall, will have no­velty
as its theme. McDougall
hopes that everything about this
year's Prom will be remembered
as one of the highlights of the
Iyear. He has contacted various
men from different localities and
, is endeavoring to obtain a suit­able
place for the Prom. The
committee has decided that a
"c 0 u n try club atmosphere"
would best suit the needs of the
class, and plans are being made
along that line. No decision re­garding
price has yet been made,
but it is expected to follow the
price line set for previous affairs
of this kind.

McDougall a Iso announced
that it is possible that tickets
for the three events will be of­fered
on the bdsis of a modified
"package plan," but that this, as
well as the price for the indi­vidual
events, will depend upon
the expenses involved.
higher authority on the follow­ing
morning, and the Adminis­tration
ruled 'that since two
shows would conflict with Jun­ior
and Senior Plans, that the
shows would have to be run
jointly or not at all. Council
members pointed out, however,
that the Freshmen had never
had an approved date in the first
place.
Chairman Zeisner voiced the
opinion that this was the only
practical way of resolving the
difficulty, and further stated that
he will endeavor to give the stu­dents
the ''best show possible."
The show as now planned by
Zeisner will be held on Wednes­day,
April 23, and at a commit­tee
meeting on Monday, Febru­ary
18, Zeisner informed the
various freshmen and sopho­mores
that since the difficulty
had been resolved, they would
all work together for a good,

The Sophomore Amateur Night, originally sched­uled
for April 25, 1952, has given way to a joint show
by the members of the Freshman-Sophomore Class to
be held on April 23, 1952, according to an announcement
by George Zeisner, chairman of the night. The amalga­mated
version of the show will be presented despite the
expressed approval of the Student Council in favor of
the original show.
The Sophomores had "cleared"
their date through Council last
November, and had begun to
plan their show as early as the
end of January. The Freshmen,
led by Council member Tremont,
also began preparations for their
show without, however, secur­ing
the approval of a suitable
date from the Council.
The mix up in dates came out
into the open at the Council
session of February 12, with the
Freshmen announcing that they
were planning a show, but that
they were willing to combine
their affair with that of the
Sophomores. Joseph McNally,
Sophomore Class President, an­nounced
disapproval of the joint
