A rather recent television pro­gram
entitled "The Big Pay Off"
has sent many elated wives
home with everything from lug­gage
to mink coats, won for
them by the agile wit of their
better-half. The Senior class,
under the able' chairmanship of
William Pierce, has decided to
run a similar program composed
of gifts donated by merchants in
and around the Bridgeport area.

Annual Event
The banquet, which is to be
an annual event, is being given
in memory of the late ~'ather
Ryan, who was head of the De­partment
of Economics at Fair­field
and moderator of the Pub­lic
Affairs Club from the time
of its inception, The success
which the Club has enjoyed
during its history is, in many
ways, due to the diligent work
and cooperation of Father Ryan.
Courtroom Experiences
The presence of Attorney
David Goldstein as the guest
speaker promises to make the
event one of the highlights of
the school year. Mr. GOldstein,
former president of the State
Senate, member of the Board of
Pardons, and Tax Attorney for
. the City of Bridgeport, is one of
the outstanding names in the
field of law, both locally and
nationally, and has been men­tioned
as lawyer of the year by
leading magazines. Mr. Gold­stein
will speak on his court­room
experiences as a trial
lawyer,
Tickets
The chairmen in charge of the
Banquet are George Jaser and
Harry Marmion, who have an­nounced
that tickets are priced
at two dollars and fifty cents
and can be purchased from
members of the Public Affairs

The sixth annual Winter Carnival of Fairfield University took place last week­end
with activities ranging from a formal dance on Friday night in the Ritz Ball­room
to an informal dance on Sunday afternoon. Chairman of the Carnival was
J ames Farnham.
The Winter formal at the Ritz
was the year's top social event at
the University, as it has been in
previous years, with some two
hundred and e i g h t Y students
and their dates attending. Danc­ing
,which took place from 9 to
1 o'clock, was to the music of
Lester Lanin's band, which de­parted
from its original style of
Charleston music and concen­trated
on the "slower" numbers.
Later in the evening there was
a mad scramble for the famous
"Lester Lanin" chapeaux, which
were "distributed" to the Carni­valists.
Prominent in the decorations
for the formal were the ice
carvings of George Weising, of
Fairfield, prominent ice sc~lptor.
This year his family of polar
bears around a running water­fall
was an innovation from the
traditional Stags, while on the
outside two Olympic torches of
ice lighted the entrance to the
Ritz. The motif within was tra­ditionally
wintry with g l' e en
pine set against silver foil on
the pillars of the room, and skiis
and other winter sporting equip­ment
adorning the walls, while
the ice skates dominated the
middle of the dance floor in
front of the band stand. Red
and white streamers ran across
the ceiling - Fairfield's school
colors.

A Convert
A convert to Catholicism,
Father Ouroussoff joined the
Society of Jesus and was or­dained
in the Russian Rite in
1946. Prior to his -ordination, he
had studied in Belgium and at
the Gregorian University in
Rome, where he received the
S.T.B. and Ph.L. degrees. After
a brief interlude in Eire, where
he learned to speak English,
Father Ouroussoff went next to
the Russian Colony in Shanghai
to work with his br,other
Jesuits. At the Jesuit Scholasti­cate
at Zikawei, Philosophy and
problems in Oriental Theology
were his course of instruction,
and at the Russian St. Michael's
College in Shanghai, he taught
Russian History and Religion.
But when the Red Chinese
Armies threatened Shanghai,
Father Ouroussoff and 6,000
other Russians fled to a refugee
camp in the Philippines and
later he left for the United
States at the request of F'ather
Rector of Fordham University.
In this country, the Russian
Jesuit became a member of the
faculty of the Institute of Con­temporary
Russian Studies, a
position which he still holds.
On Tuesday, February 10, the third Bellarmine
Lecture of the school year, which proved to be reward­in"
g, informative and interesting, was given by a Rus­sian
Jesuit, Father Andrey Ouroussoff, S.J., a professor
at the Institute of Contemporary Studies, Fordham
University.
His Family
A descendant of one of the
oldest Russian families, a fam­ily
founded at the time of the
Tartar- conquest of Russia,
Father Ouroussoff is the son of
Prince Alexander Ouroussoff.
After the Russian Revolution, in
which he lost his parents, he
journeyed to Paris to live with
his relatives there. This proved
to be the beginning of a world­wide
odyssey which has char­acterized
his entire life, his
travels extending from Asia and
Eurasia to the continent of
Europe and finally to the Philip- FATHER OUROUSSOFF. S.J.

The Reserve Center, Bridge­port,
announced today that the
Navy has opened a program by
which college students may
apply for reserve officers train­ing.
The ROC program does not
interfere with academic courses
of study pursued by the appli­cants.
Upon completion of the
program, individuals will be ap­pointed
as commissioned re­serve
officers.
Basic Requirements
The prospective candidates
must be citizens of the United
States and be between the ages
of 17% and 18. They will be en­listed
in a drilling unit that
meets one night a week and
they must complete two sum­mer
training periods of six
weeks each. Candidates enrolled
in this training will receive full
pay, subsistence, transportation
and clothing.
From the Bridgeport area it
is expected that approximately
twenty-five candidates will be
accepted. The ROC program
ends February twenty-eighth
and applications should be made
before that date.

students is that if they agree to

Beware . . . Beware. . All
ye who have not paid your
dollar assessment fee. The
knights of the round table have
decreed that all extra-curricular
activities of those who still re­fuse
to pay tribute to our local
quaestors will be forfeited. They
still haven't thought of using
the rack, iron maiden, stake,
snake pit, or acid bath. But the
cry will be "render to the quaes­tor
what is the quaestor's due."
Yield or fall along the wayside
(otherwise known as martyrs
row), is all I can suggest.
The cUllstitution came into the
limelight again ... it still must
undergo a few minor changes.
As I understand it, this docu­ment
makes our council about
the most powerful of all in the
Catholic colleges around this
part of the country. This has
been deduced after certain
members of the council looked
over the constitutions of various
other Catholic colleges. One
thing about our constitution that
is important to note is that the
writers left room for very broad
interpretation. Thus they did
away with future confusion that
might arise and also modified
the legislative limitations of the
council.
TO DANCE OR NOT TO
DANCE . . . The question of
the proposed stag dances to be
held here with the various girls
colleges bounced around the
table again for a few minutes at
least. The inevitable happened
again and the discussion was
postponed until after the smoke
from the winter carnival clears.

Editors Of The
Manor Chosen
With this issue, the STAG assumes a new staff of
writers and editors and embarks upon another semester
of news gathering and reporting. To John Welch, the
retiring Editor-in-Chief, and his staff, to the Senior
members, we owe a debt of gratitude for their jour­nalistic
achievements during the past year. It is our
fond hope and desire that we will continue to report
the news faithfully and give adequate coverage to all
activities on compus.
Since, however, the college newspaper is the spokes­man
of the student body, any constructive criticism or
suggestions in the form of Letters to the Editor, etc.,
which will be beneficial to the STAG will be welcomed
by the Editor and his staff.

Editor-in-Chief
The students at Fairfield University are being "let
down," so the Student Council informs us! Over four-hundred
and seventy students at Fairfield have paid the _. --1
dollar tax assessment. This was an assessment made by
the Council only after it realized it needed additional
funds or otherwise abandon all of the school's inter­scholastic
activities sponsored by the Student Associa­tion.
It was an assessment to cover such activities as
the Winter Carnival, etc., should they run into financial
difficulties.
The tax has been levied on all and it was the Coun­cil's
intention that it should be paid by all, lest some
should exempt themselves from this tax, yet enjoy its
benefits. The Council has given the students four months
in which to pay, but some have not responded. There­fore,
it has authorized a list of names of the men who
have not paid to be' published in the hope that, wishing
to help share the burden, these men will make a memor­andum
and contact any member of the Student Council
and close this matter as soon as possible. The list of
names may be found on the Bulletin Board and The
STAG earnestly urges your cooperation by consulting
the Board to make sure your name is not amongst the
delinquents.

Editorial Progress
Commenting on the editorial
progress of the book, McGrath
stated that 112 pages have been
sent to the printer with only 58
more due late this month. He
commended the members of the
s t a ff for their outstanding
assistance. The first deadline
was met only three days late
(due to a delay by the New
York photographers) and the
second "batch" of copy was
completed one day earlier than
the deadline. Providing that the
final deadline this month is met
on time, all indications would
point to May 15th as the latest
date for delivery of the year­books.
The 1953 Manor Editor, Car­roll
McGrath, has summoned a
final all-out splurge on the part
of the Senior Class to make the
yearbook a finanCial success. To
date, the business staff has done
outstanding work in obtaining
over h.alf of the funds necessary
for publication. However, the
final half is still a tremendous
amount and any lag among the
business staff or Seniors could
prove disastrous.
Senior Support
In appealing to the support of
all seniors, McGrath encourages
those who have not yet paid
their $10.00 for the Manor to do
so immediately.
In addition, he requests that
every senior exert one final
effort to obtain at least one ad­vertisement
for the yearbook.
This must be done before
March 1st, fOJ the deadline for
the printer is soon after this
date.
Manor Editor
Urges Support
The Radio Club conducted two programs over Sta­tion
WICC during the examination period. On the first
one, Father John F. Caulfield, S.J., assistant professor
of mathematics and moderator of The Stag, discussed
the Christmas Message of Pope Pius XII. Mr. Richard
Duchelle and Mr. Louis D'Aquila were the members
of the panel from the student body.
Modern State --------------
Father Caulfield was particu­larly
concerned with expand­ing
and clarifying the Holy
Father's evaluation of the com­plexities
of the modern state.
F'ather Caulfield states that it
wasn't the intent of the Pontiff
to censure the vast benefits that
have been the results of our
"industrialized society." How­ever,
The Holy Father was
deeply concerned over the im­personalization
that has attend­ed
these advances.
Man's Dignity
In every phase of our civiliza­tion,
economic, social, philo­sophic,
and religious, we have
tended to reduce man's innate
dignity to the limits of charts,
"minutely designed organiza­tions,"
and the legislation of
"Christian virtues and reforms."
This is all well and good. But,
was Christ primarily interested
in man's economic welfare; was
He primarily concerned with
man's material condition? Hard­ly!
Was Christ primarily inter­ested
in bureaucratic Christian­ity?
Never.
No Conflict
Modern society, however,
seems to tend toward an affirm­ative
answer to these ques­tions.
Not that it isn't concerned
with man's development. Cer­tainly
not, for one of today's
greatest virtues is its interest in
social progress. In this basic
idea there is no conflict with the
Holy Father's message.
Conflict
However, conflict does arise
with the attempt to improve
social and economic conditions
through the medium of organ­izations
devoted to improve­ments.
These groups, despite
good intentions, promote the
idea that organized and legal
measures that represent the
state can displace the personal
obligations of Christianity. For
instance, many people feel that
their help in establishing a
charitable group automatically
defers them from any further
charitable duties.
Warning
It is at this point that the
Holy Father warns us that we
should beware of this imper­sonal
trend. For the greater the
size and the complexity of mod­ern
state activities, the more
impersonal will our society be­come
and the less dignity will
man be able to retain for him­self.
Mr. Stuart
Mr. Chester J. Stuart, assist­ant
professor of German and
Education, discussed the ram­ifications
of President Eisen­hower's
inaugural address. Mr.
Stuart was interested in point­ing
out that the President was
telling the American public and
the world that we as a nation
are aware of the basic principles
of Christianity; that we are not
merely interested in comforts
and prosperity, but rather in the
ideals of the Bill of Rights and

of 68.7 points per game,
while Fairfield has countered
with 663 points on 239 field goals
and 185 fouls for an average of
66.3 points per game.
From the floor the Stags have
hit 239 times on 729 attempts for
a .328 percentage while their ad­versaries
have hit from the floor
248 times in 733 attempts for a
percentage of .338. In the foul
shooting department the varsity
is also being led by their op­ponets.

Lit tIe Ern i e Petrucciano
sparked the Terriers with one of
the best games he has played
all season. The ex-Central High
back-court master poured in 23
points and played a spectacular
floor .!!ame. Red Kleinberg, a for­mer
Hillhouse star, also shared
the spotlight for Coach Tuffie
Maroons' resurgent five.
1st Period
Arnold made their first five
shots and the Staggs could hit
only 3 goals themselves against
a zon-= defense in the first period.
The Terriers were on the long
end of a 22-8 score as the period
ended.
Arnold Lead
Jackie O'Connell hit for 10
points in the second quarter and
put the Stags back in the game.
His one-handed jump and push
shots narrowed the margin to
37-32 at the half. However, with
Petrucciano scoring again in the
third quarter, Arnold pulled
away to a 55-42 lead at the three­quarter
mark and controlled the
game easily thru the final stanza.
O'Connell's 21 points paced
the Stag scoring. Bob Gerwein
tallied 15, and Stan Suchenski,
13. For Arnold, Kleinberg, Stone
and Clinkscales scored 17, 13,
and 12 points respectively.

Adelphi
In the final game at Garden
City, Long Island, the Stags
w ere completely overpowered
b y Adelphi. Gerwein hit 14
points, while O'Connell, Roche,
and Norb Fahey followed with
10 each.
O'Connell averaged 16 points
per game on the trip to lead the
team and Gerwein tallied 14.3
per game, and Roche, 10.3.
Arnold's red-hot Terriers rushed to the top of the
Little Three standings last week by crushing the Stags
in the Arnold Gym, 82-64. The game was part of the
Mid-Winter Carnival.
St. Francis
The Stags opened the trip
with a TV appearance against
St. Francis at the Second Corps
Armory in Brooklyn. Ironically
enough, this game ,which was
expected to be the Stags' tough­est,
found them playing their
best ball. The Terriers were top­heavy
favorites to win, but the
Stags extended them until the
last few minutes. The fouling
out of Big Jim Roc he, who
played great ball on the trip,
proved to be fatal. With Roche's
rebounding prowess gone then
Brooklyn's Hank Daubenschmidt
started controlling the boards
and the Terriers walked away.
O'Connell
J a c k i e O'Connell was the
Stags' Golden Boy, hitting 23
points, 15 of which came in the
first half. He brought numerous
raves fro m announcer Cur t
Gowdy. Stan Suchenski tallied
14 points and Bob Gerwein 12.
Ryder
The following night in New
J e r s e y, Ryder College came
from behind in a last quarter
surge to edge the Stags by five
points. The Broncos caught the
Stags at 57-all midway in the
final stanza and protected a slim
lead to the finish. The Stags ac­tually
lost on the foul line, con­verting
16 of 24 tries while
Ryder made a remarkable 21 of
28. Gerwein lead the Stags with
a 7-3-17 performance. Roc h e
'md O'Connell connected for 15
each.
Stags

Lose
The Red Stags returned from
the w 0 r s t road t rip in the
school's brief history last week
failing to win a single game in
t h r e e successive nights. The
Stags bowed to St. Francis, 74­62,
Ryder, 67-62 and Adelphi,
92·82. The three reversals gave
the Stags a season record of four
wins and six losses. They have
now dropped six of their last
seven games.
Markovic
Some good news for the team
came last week, when Bob Mar­kovic,
who was injured in the
UB game, reported to practice
ready to play. It was thought
earlier t hat the high-scoring
guard would be lost for the sea­son.

"Where i t is a treat to eat"
Ronald Homza, Senior Dele­gate
to C.I.S.L., announced to­day
the arrangements for the
March session of the Student
State Legislature at Hartford.
Fairfield will present the follow­ing
three bills:
Election
A Resolution introduced by
John Byrne which would elim­inate
the present system of elect­ing
the President and Vice­President
of the United States.
The method suggested by Mr.
Byrne would allow a propor­tionate
splitting of the Electoral
Vote for each candidate accord­ing
to the .percentage of the
popular vote he has received.
This would allow for a more
equitable election to the nations
top office.
Medical Attention
A safety measure requiring
employers of small factories
and businesses to have upon the
premises a doctor or registered
nurse, so as to furnish proper
medical attention to employee,
is the proposition of the bill
introduced by John Keegan
Third Bill
The third Fairfield bill is con­cerned
with trucking and was
originated by John O'Meara.
This measure would force trucks
to make use of the tandem axel,
a device which distributes the
weight of the carrier more even­ly,
and thereby causes less wear
on the State roads
During the preceeding week,
Henry Mountan was elected
Junior Delegate to the Organiza­tion
and will immediately take
over the duties of that office
Selected Men
Mr. Homza announced that
the following men have been
selected by himself, by the
Faculty Moderator, and by the
Secretary and President of the
Public Affairs Club to represent
Fairfield at Hartford; reserva­tions
have also been made for
them to stay at the Hotel Bond
Annex while at the Nutmeg

Providence
At Rhode Island, the Stag
hoopsters will face an aggressive
squad. In our first encounter with
the Friars, Fairfield proved vic­torious
and looks forward to a
repeat performance over the
Providence club. The i l' attack
will be sparked by their stellar
guard, Bob Moran, who tossed in
25 points against the Stags in the
initial encounter. Moran has
been high scorer for the Rhode
Islanders in all their games this
season and last year lead the
team in scoring with 379 points.
New Britain
The next team on the schedule
is a return engagement with the
Teachers of New Britain on Feb­ruary
20.

Finally, on February 25, the
Jesuits are hosts in an intersec­tional

asked was whether dorms would
be erected in the future. It was
felt that the students are miss­ing
the complete social activities
brought about by dorms. These
social functions are as equally
beneficial as the knowledge they
gain from books."
Concerning the University it­self,
the comments were most
complimentary. "It offers so
many opportunities for higher
learning"; another commented,
"The University produces well
bred men, well-taught men, and
men to be proud of." One father
said he hopes to send his boy,
now in the eighth grade, through
the Prep and the University.
Others commented on the fact
that the University is a real
benefit to the town and gives
promise of a bright future.
The Jesuits, too, were well
praised. "It gives us pride to
have Jesuits in the community.
They are a great asset to all.
Fairfield Catholic organizations
have taken many opportunities
to call on the fathers and faculty
members for talks, conferences,
days of recollection, etc.
In conclusion may I say,
though our "Alma Mater" is in
its youth, its size and reputation
are growing and spreading; we
are the "few that are chosen"
to build that reputation. Let's
keep it good and endeavor to
better it.

Editor until he assumes the re­sponsibility

Succeeding Ronald Beatty as

'" Everything in Drugs"
The United States Army has
formulated a statement concern­ing
overseas duty along the fol­lowing
lines: The American
soldier is an ambassador of the
United States. The eyes of the
world focus upon the soldier
overseas as a direct representa­tive
and a living example of the
United States and its principles.
So, I have noted, is the case of
Fairfield Township vs. the Stu­dents
of Fairfield University.
We students who dwell in the
fair community along with those
who use the facilities of the
town are the so-called ambassa­dors
of the University. All of us
determine, for better or for
worse, any fluctuation in the
Fairfield public opinion concern­ing
the standards and principles
of the University.
The question natu.rally arises,
"What do Fairfield residents
think of us and our Alma
Mater?" It can now be answered
more satisfactorily. The roving
ear of the STAG recently ac­cumulated
a rather general opin­ion
of the local landlords and
landladies, whose names will re­main
anonymous.
Fairfield University students
were praised by all interviewed;
comments ranged from, "all
very nice fellas," to "the boys
are of high caliber and are held
in high regard." One question

sented their objections to the
Council. One of the main ob­stacles
was the fact that they
felt the Student Body would ob­ject
to the additional charge, in
as much as an extra-curricular
activities fee had been elimin­ated
due to the tuition increase.
Moreover, they believed that
this would. be a return to the
old policy.
Committee
The Council, however, still
found itself faced with a prob­lem
that could very well cause
some classes to graduate with­out
a yearbook, due to a lack
of finances. In the light of this
fact, Mr. Cronin appointed Bill
Mecca, Chairman of the Commit­tee,
who will be assisted by
Tony Pagliaro, Paul Tremont
and Art Conway.

ate the poor financial picture.
Of the plans presented, one was
chosen as acceptable by the
Council and presented to Father
Langguth. The Plan called for a
fee of seven dollars to be added
to the tuition of each student,
with the exception of the Sen­iors.
In their case, the fee would
amount to ten dollars, on the
assumption that the yearbook
would be in great part concern­ed
with the activities of their
class. In return for the extra fee,
each student would receive a
yearbook for his entire four
years at Fairfield.

Make-up Editor
An important department on
any newspaper is the Make-up
Department. Replacing John
Klimas, '53, as make-up editor,
who has taken a respite from
his journalistic endeavors, is a
Freshman, Harry Walters, who,
as a member of the staff, has
shown ability in this particular
department. The Metropolitan
Club numbers him among their
members.
The new staff of the STAG,
with Robert Petrucelli as Edi-tor-
in-Chief, hopes to continue I~~~~~~~~"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""~
the high quality of journalism
which the paper has enjoyed
during its previous history and
to make it an organ of the stu­dent
body.
I wonder just how many "in­tellectuals"
have wandered bv
the janitor's room on the way t'o
the cafeteria without noticing
the janitor's "shingle" hanging
on the door which firmly but
simply states "The Lost Books
Dept."
Can't you just picture one of
our worthy colleagues as he
enters the room in hopes of find­ing
Chaucer's immortal master­piece
"The Canterbury Tales" or
some other famous work of art.
First of all, while searching
for the light switch, our hero
stumbles over a broom handle
that suddenly appeared out of
the dark and lands head first in
a bucket of disinfectant. After
emitting a few choice phrases
and clearing his face of the "per­fume",
he finally finds the light
switch ... but ... as he puts on
a light, a can of wax which was
placed on the shelf in a very pre­carious
position now abandons
its perch in favor of our hero's
head.
Upon contact of head and can,
there results a most crystalline
bell-like tone which floors our
leading character. But clearing
his head of cobwebs, etc. he dis­covers
the object of his long and
intensified but bruising search.
Of course the imposing volume
is a little the worse for wear due
to damp mops, dirty water and
disinfectant stains: but, since it
will save our hero a good deal of
money he "Whistles A Happy
Tune and goes merrily on his
way.
The moral of this story is ...
don't lose your books.
Great Britain
Mr. Stuart pointed out that
this was the essential problem
that confronts Great Britain.
They have fed the lion which
in turn has chewed upon her
vitals. Thus it is, as Eisenhower
stated, that "a people that val­ues
its privileges above its prin­ciples
soon loses both." How­ever,
do not think that the
President is asking for material
sacrifice alone. More than that
he is demanding personal in~
tegrity and virtue which a de­mocracy
presupposes. After all,
before a family can perfect it­self,
its members must improve.
Other Ideologies
We don't have to be concern­ed
with the fact that other na­tions
and philosophies might at­tempt
to refute the absolutes
upon which our nation is de­pendent.
These same parties
have proven time and a!lain
that they realize their own lack
of principle by their continual
apologies and justifications for
this deficiency. What we must
do is to reaffirm our faith in this
creed of democracy and to look
toward the goal of "inner-har­mony"
- "with bravery, with
chanty and with prayer to
almighty God."

Thursday, March 19 at Berch­mans
Hall will mark the final

class of '53. Once again a bril­liant
array of talent showman­ship

The Senior class, in its col­lege

CARNIVAL

The highlight of the evening
was the selection of the Snow
Queen, a traditional part of the
Carnival Week-End. The choice
of the judges was a New Haven
girl, Joan Marlowe, whose date
was a Senior, Walter McVety.
Photographers from the lead­ing
newspapers in the vicinity
were the l' e to publicize the
event. A corsage and compact
were awarded to the Queen by
the Chairman of the event, Jim
Far n ham, as the collegiate
"band" softly played "A Pretty
Girl Is Like A Melody".
The judges, who selected Miss
Marlowe as Snow Queen, were
the host and hostesses of the
