tM. period it is not unlikel,l tlult Old Max will step on
/lOme toes-principally oura-but we think it'a all in fun and
we hope IIoU will too.
It's the same with me and Marlboro 'Cigarettes. I think
Marlboro's flavor represents the pinnacle of the tobacconist's
art. I think Marlboro's filter represents the pinnacle of the
filter-maker's art. I think Marlboro's pack and box represent
the pinnacle of the packager's art. I think Marlboro is a pleas­ure
and a treasure, and I fairly burst with pride that I have
been chosen to speak for Marlboro on your campus. All the
same, I want my money every week. And the makers of
Marlboro understand this full well. They don't like it, but they
understand it.
In the columns which follow this opening installment, I will
turn the hot white light of truth on the pressing problems of
campus life-the many and varied dil'emmas which beset the
undergraduate-burning questions like "Should Chaucer class­rooms
be converted to parking garages?" and "Should proctors
be given a saliva test?" and "Should foreign exchange student6
be held for ransom?"
And in these ,columns, while grappling with the crises that
vex campus America, I will make occasional brief mention of
Marlboro Cigarettes. If I do not, the makers will not give me
any money. @1962Mulllnll_
With todll.y's entry I begin my ninth year of writing columIlll
in your school newspaper for the makers, of Marlboro Cigarettes.
Nine years, I believe you will agree, is a long time. In fact,
it took only a little longer than nine years to dig the SU611
Canal, and you know what a gigantic undertaking that w3!l1
To be sure, the work would have gone more rapidly had the
shovel been invented at that time, but, as we all know, the
shovel was not invented until 1946 by Walter R. Shovel of
Cleveland, Ohio. Before Mr. Shovel's discovery in 194tl, all
digging was done with sugar tongs-a method unquestionably
". dainty but hardly what one,would call rapid. There·were, natu­rally,
many efforts made to speed up digging before Mr. Shove!!....
breakthrough-notably an attempt in 1912 by the immortal
Thomas Alva Edison to dig with the phonograph, but the only
iliing that happened was that he got his horn fult of sand. Thi8
l!e depl'elllled Mr. Edison that he fell into a fit of melanehol'y
fffilll which he did not emerge until two Ye&rslater wheB hill
friend William Wordsworth, the eminent nature poet, cheerM
him up by imita,~g~ duck f~r foul' and a half hours.
But I digress. 'I:or.nine yearll, I MY, I have been writing thie
whmm for the makers of Marlboro Cigarettes, and for nine
years they have bees paying me money. You are shocked. Yea
tbink that anyone who has tftllted Marlboro's unparalleled
flavor; who has enjoyed Marlboro's filter, who bea revelled in
Marlboro's jolly red and white pack or box should be more than
willing to write about Marlboro without a penny's compensa­tion.
You are wrong.
Compensation is the very foundation stone of the AmerieaB
Way of Life. Whether you love your w{)rk or hate it, our system
absolutely requires that you be paid for it. For example, I
have a friend named Rex Glebe, a veterinarian by profession,
who simply adores to worm dogs. I mean you can call him up
and say, "Hey, Rex, let'8 go bowl a few lines," or "Hey, Rex,
let's g'l flatten some pennies on the railroad tracks," and he
will alwllYs reply, "No, thanks. I better stay here in case
somebody wants a dog wormed." I mean there is not one thing
in the whole world you can name that Rex likes better than
worming a dog. But even so, Rex always sends a bill for worm­ing
your dog because in his wisdom he knows that to do other­wise
would be to rend, possibly irreparably, the fabric of
democracy.

The present undergraduate stu­dent

abou.t this, but to ~e STAG,
whose talk it is to observe and
comment, we. believe that this
development program should be
of interest to everyone. The
Administration is leading these
efforts by recognizing the Alum·
ni's important role an?: the &ig.
nific'ance of l:nvolving our par­ents
more fully inaur education
with the formation of the Fa>th.

The paper revels in jts pride
of a black-and-white philosophy,
yet rarely has t}~e humility to ad­mit
that the Church sees' gray in
many areas of thought. Question
and answer artides, as a result,
assUme a child-like mentality· for
their unworldliness and imprac­tica:
lity. Absolute reliance on: the
NCWC for news releases is an~
other sore spot. Catholic certain­ly
believe,Goa comes first but
that primary element is not ab­solutely
limited ,to intra-Church
information and expression. The
covering, of the Chilean earth­quake
from the eye~witness re:
port of the local bishop is excel­lent,
but the story is quite inade­quate
.implying that the whole
affair has been objectively pre­sented
in all its important facts
and evaluation.
As we have previously stated,
this accusation is not universally
accurate, but the exceptions are
so scarce t h a't the Catholic
Church in America is definitely
harmed for the lack of an e~cel­lent
news publication and hann­ed
for the existence of the, pres­ently
mediocre press.
This void must be filled by the
concerned and dedicated young
men and women of our Catholic
schools. A, !lew orientation for
the weekly newspaper will only
come with sacrifices and commit­ments.
The Catholic press' uniqueness
rests mainly in its task to pre­sent
the truth in its proper pro­portion.
Not <;mly h'ls this task
been ultimately avoided, but itt
has been unconsciously disguised
within the walls of the now-anti­quated
CathoJic ghetto mental·

their success to their Chai~man.
Always appearing at the ap­propriate
moment, Rev. Donald
D. Lynch, S,J., the Week's Mod­erator,
gave his time and seem­ingly
inexhaustible energies to
every event. He, also) must shaire
in the class's gratitude.
'To the' others, chairmen. and
committeemen, obviously too nu­merO\
lS to mention, their fellow
Juniors are deeply indebted.
The committee has continued
the progress ,of the Orientation
tradition. It has set a record for
future classes to equal. But, at
the same time, the Junior com­mittee
is indebted to the Classes
of 1962 and 1963. These comm1t- .
tees' records and experience
were of 1nestimable value in the
formation and effecting of the
Week's program. They, too, share
the success.

THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY I
Outlines Procedure
Activities __ Calendar'
The means of transmitting ideas lies in the broad and almost
nebulous area of what is termed 'the "humanities," encompassing
the cultural and intellectual achievements collected from the best
of men's minds when used apart from the basic areas of prag­matic
life. Art, literature, philosophy and history are the broadest
categories into which fit the matter to be digested. A representa­tive
selection is the mea~s employed towards shaping the un­tutored
mind in a pattern, if not ideology, with which and in
which it is supposed to operate once beyond the process of educa­tion.
It is not necessarily a pattern or ideology which limits as
might one of politics or personal philosophy; it is, rather, one
of a system of values which judges the worth of something
according to the standards presented in the academic community.
Neither is it a pattern or ideology closed to valuing the less
intellectual or cultural as worthless. While not quite succumbing
to inactive moderation, it is an attempt to find a balance in life
between the needs of the body and the needs of the mind, with
some excesses in both areas permitted and sometimes encouraged
to restore the balance. So much for the ideai result. Next we
examine the real results and the real means.
The community of minds in the process of pooling and cOm­,
municating ideas, which Teilhard deChardin termed the "no­osphere,"
finds its miniature and perhaps most excellent example
within a college o~ university. Regardless of the 'modern concept
of higher education as an economic stepping-stone to the good
life, we have 'never lost the ideal of life-education through ideas.
The realization of the ideal becomes, more and more elusive as
the dictates of employers increase :in complexity, but fresh efforts
spring up, able to replace the old with a new twist to the pre­sentation
of the true values of education - education as a stimu­lator
and as a, distributor of a foundation on which its receiver
may base his decisions and from which he may plot his less than
self-centered goals.
Whether the school is a sprawling metropolitan 'giant of many
parts or the smallest of boarding colleges, the common link in
each of the communities is the goal of transmitting and stimulat­ing
ideas which hopefully, in turn, generate thought able to
reduce the imperfections of systems and men; this is not to
destroy freedom, but to channel it to the greater good of the
whole world, country, state or even town.
