PLAN CONGRESS
The question of wonlan's rote
in the defense of the nation dlU··
ing the next crucial decade will
be discussed at the National Con·
terence on Women in the Defense
Decade to be held in New York
City on September 27 and 28. The
two Nazareth students who will
attend this conference arc Vh··
g inia Jones and Kathryn Curt·an.
The chairman o! the confe1··
ence is Miss Mary Donlon, Chall·man
of the New York State
Workmen's Compensation Board.
Members of the executive committee
include Sister Cathel'ine
Dorothea, President of Trinity
College, Washington, Sarah Gibson
Blanding, Pt·esident of Vassa.r
College, Lillian M. Gilbreth, Con·
suiting Engineer, 1\tontcla.il". New
Jersey, and many more of the
most noted women of our times.
The different sections of the
conference wi11 include discus·
sions on the home, citizenship,
peace, education and creative
leistn·e.
The chah·man states that women's
work and women's special
talents, i! used in attacking community
problems during less
critical t·imes, might obviate the
recurring crises that threaten to
destroy the already weakened
fabric of our society. It is with
this end in view as well as preparation
for defense, that plans for
this conference have been made.

ORIENTATION PROGRAM
FEATURES ARMY THEME
F•·eshman OrienttLtion, army
style, opened with t·<weille on
1'uesday, September 18. A lively
program portrayed the more
humorous possibilities in the life
of a typical college recruit, the
ft·eshman. Although the general
theme was, "You're in the Army
Now," the Orientation Committee
made this a unique army.
NEW TEACHERS
ASSUME POSTS
Sister M. Geraldine, liLA.,
former principal of St. Agnes
High School, wHI make herself
nl home in Nazareth's Chemistry
Department. A new member of
the ~fusic Department will be
Sister Rose Gonzaga, while Slster
St. Catherine, Ph.D., has joined
the Education and English De·
pa1·tments.
The new lay !acuity includes
Helen Coyne McGraw, class of
1928, who will be seen in the
library as an assistant. The Art
D~pat·tment has added Miss
Nancy Tice, Mrs. Ruth Gul!rucht
and Miss Alice White ta their
staff. The Sociology Department
also has an additional instl'uctor,
Jane Kl·eckel, class of '44.
01'. J. Nicolas, is another new·
comer to the Chemistry Depart·
me-nt. Dr. Nicolas received his
Doctor's Degt·ee at Madrid and
was Professor of Chemistry at the
Univet·sity. of Madrid !945-50.
The Speech Depa rtmcnt will
have several changes this fall.
Miss Marie Ball, M.A., of the
Rocheste•· Public School System
and the U. of R. faculty will han.
die the Speech Correction classes.
~ir. Edwin Dolan, M.A., also of
the Public School System will
teach Dramatics. Also added to
the faculty of the Speech Department
will be Miss Jean Stmchan,
who will teach Ft·eshman Speech.
Roll call was more than a mct·e
routine procedure, for it pL·ov'ided
the new frosh with the oppor·
tunity of becoming acquainted
with their big sisters. Facilitating
the introductions were the dog
tags won• by members of both
classes.
Mat·cia Sink1 entertainment
chait·man, planned a program
that followed along the musical
rather than the marching idea.
Usually sb·ict al'my discipline
was softened by the sentimental
and laughable incidents which the
juniors pantomined nnd s.ang. The
entettainnte.nt was the original
work of Marcia Sink.
Cha_irmnn Lauds Committee$
General Chairman Mary Ellen
Creedon sa id, • ~welcoming our little
sisters is only the boginning
of the orientation program. The
ultimate purpose of the s is ter
class relationships is the family
spirit and unity of the College.
To achieve this end will be our
aim for the entire year.''

;Nnznrctlt eo/lege
For each of you another year of opportunity is beginning,
a year that will mean much to you as a student:
the privi lege of sharing here at Nazareth a wealth of religious,
cultLu·al, tec hnical, and scientific knowledge and
experience; of forming and enjoying friendships that will
enrich your lives now and far beyond student days; of
shadng in the hundred and one intangibles that go to
make up life at Nazareth. This year will ask much of
you, too, in an apostolic sense: in an honest recognition
that with knowledge comca rcspollllibility, the responsibility
of living the Justice and Charity of Christ here and
now, and of bringing Him into the larger world beyond
Nazareth.
Yours is an enthusiasm that is the blessed prerogative
of youth. May it move you to bring to your College and
to this new college yeat· a spi rit of love, of loya lty, a11d
of generosi ty : a determination to use well every opportunity
that is offe red you of acquiring a good education
in every sense of the word.
I urge you to stay close to Our Lord in the Mass in
the reception of the Sacraments, and in the visits that
you make to Him in the Oratory between classes throughout
the day. With faith in yourselves, and with an unbounded
trust in the Goodness of God, may you with
honest effo rt bring to a happy and fruitful conclusion
this academic yeat· that we a re about to begin.
Sister· Rose Angela.
Autumn J<everie
As summer closes, day by day, the glory of autumn
comes more fully upon our senses. The garden blooms no
more in dainty pinks and bachelor's buttons, but riots
forth in golden marigolds stretching on their stems for
the warmer rays of sun, blue delphinium, eager to the
last. and clusters of cht·ysanthemums gathered in a multicolot
·ed period to the summer's flowers.
The sky regains ngain its blue depths, stretching its
unmarred transparency from horizon to horizon, as summer's
haze is dispelled. The paler autumn sunset britl.'tS
as it~ compensation added star-sparkle to the criso night
air. In mid-autumn summer's brief return is heralded by
a last crimson ro.~e. but its final departure is hurried
along by the plaintive honk of geese outstretched in theit·
flowing V in the autumn sky.
Farmers plant in the dark brown earth the seeds of
winter wheat, which will be the first cultivated green
shoots in the spring fields, and their wives sm·vey with.
pl'ide the fruitful outcome of theit· labot·s. lining in red,
green and brown the cellar shelves. Spectral cornstalks
point glumly to the skies. but nestled warm beside them
are plumo orange pumpkins, pr eparing their toothsome
grins for Halloween.
And amid the ~tlorious harvest of nature, human
minds lulled by limpid summer, open up, blink, and come
111ive again in the bright. brisk autumn sun. Vacation
luJ!'gage is stored away with overflowing scrapbooks filled
with mementos of summer fun. Cottons and rayons make
way for flannels and woolens, and vacation being over ,
stewardesses and stenographers. steeple.iacks and salesmen
return to theit· wot·k, and students r eturn to school.
And autumn has come to Nazareth too. Halls accu:
st.ouu:u for a month to the silent :;wish of mops or th•
occasional step of a solitarv stroller echo again with
brio:ht "Hi's" and cheerv "Hello's," liS friends nntl comrades
meet again at the beginnin~t of another school term.
Brilliant autumn colors so visible in the outside worlrl
are captured on fabrics, and decorate our classroom~
And then. as easily as nature does it herself, the summer
is forgotten, and the activities of autumn are begun.

As we return to school and
greet old friends and meet the
new freshmen. we miss the friend!)
· facH of our big sisters and
classmates or the class of 1951.
They ar~ now out in the ' 'wide,
wide world," filling important positions
in many 1\elds. They seem
to be going out wholc-hen •·tcdly to
conquer tho world, fot· many
ca reert.J are beginning to take
form for lust year'! teniors.

These are just a f.ew examples
to show how the class of l9S1

always be known to us as very
dear classmates.
STOP AND THINK
Did you ever get a pang o! conscience
as you hurried by the
chapel door? Most of us ignore,
or rather forget about, our spiritual
habitat in our daily rush to
and ft'Om classes. And il you ean
dare to have an excuse of no one
to pray for, there's a solution for
that, too!
In theoe days of war and peace
con!erenc:ea, auc:c:eues and failures
ot our nation'& policies, we
a ll have a worthy cause to pray
for. But perhops you feel that a

person is more of an incentive for
you to stop in the chapel !or a

you'll And a little eard posted

Don't you think it is important
to heed these notices? As an incentive

"RUSSIA CAN BE DEFEATED!"
DEMOCRAT HEAD IS CONFIDENT
"'1 have no fear of a war with
Russia. So far. ever )' time we've
stuck to our guns, they've backed
down. I believe that even if we
do engage in a war with Russia.
we can defeat her, though it will
cost us millions of dollors. But
we could do it."
Optimistic words - s poken by
a man in a position to know
"whereof he sp~aka"-M r. L. R.
Blanchard, editor-in-chief o! the
Rochester D""'ocrat & Chronicle.
Mr. Blanchard, a veteran news·
paperman of some forty years.
has travelled through Europe
three times since the end o! World
V{ar H. and on these occasions
made several brief reconnaissance
tours behind the Iron Curtai n.
Mr. Blanchard declnres the
truth is most evident that the
Russians have nothing to otrer
the people. Only examples of re·
pression und force cnn be Cound
behind the Curtain. A proof of
this is illustrated in u personal
experience of Mr. Blanchard's.
He and a cameraman co1npanion
were watching a g-roup oC Russian
soldiers marching down the st reet.
A Russian lieutenant seeing that
a picture was being snapped
rushed up asking ''waru_m''
CHIEF SEEKS PEACE
In December of 1950 Charles
E. Wilson gave up permanently
the presidency of General Electric
to take the olllce of Director
ol Defense Mobilization. lfe took
over this job at the ins is tent
urging ol the President who delegated
to him-"unprecedented,
almost unlimited powers."
Few people actually know that
his job is to make America so
strong, militarily and economic·
ally that RuS8ian leader& will not
dare to precipitate a world war;
or , if they are so reckless as to
attack, to insure that we and our
alliC$ of the free world shall be
able to swim and win. Today
Charles Wilson has n1ore power
over the U.S. economy than has
ever been placed in the hands or
anyone but a President. Some ol
the massive problems for which
he must find answers arc manpower
policy. food prices and
stockpiling.
He had not only made his way
from the very bottom to the top
in General Electric but had increased
that company's business
tivelold during his preaidency. He
also served his country faithfully
during World War IT as head of
the War Production Board.
From n narrow point of view,
Wilson is not an educated man.
He didn't even finish grammar
school, not to mention college.
From another viewpoint and for
the purpose of his li!e work, his
education was almost ideal. He
learned things by doing them and,
at the same time, etudied, in the
evenings, the theory and t.e<hnical
background o! his work. This
way he has learned to reduce all
vast complications to their simplest
terms.
Wils.on's plan is to rearm
America in the next two yean,
and at the same Ume to maintain
a temporarily res tricted but
healthy civilian economy. Ho is a
great Amel·iean- n man to wut.cl1
as he builds up our nation for de·
fense and eventual world freedom.
(why) ? ,; And why not?" the
cameraman asked. The Russian
seemed quite surprised that anyone
would stand up against him.
At any rate the soldier then re·
sumed his marching and another
pictu.re was taken.
Th.c ed itorial policy o! the 0&11 ...
ocr·ot is determined by Mr.
Blanchard, although he likes to
consult the members of the editorial
staff. Contrary to the belief
of most Rochestcrians, Mr.
Frank Gannett is not the ruling
force in the !ormation of the edi·
torial policy. He ie concerned
only with the business end of the
paper, and does not interrere with
the editorial policy. In tact in
the last election, the D&C supported
Governor Dewey wholeheartedly,
while Mr. Gannett is
known to have opposed the Re·
publican presidential aspirant.
Concerning the actunl writing
of the editorials , Mr. Blanchard
pens many of them himself. "T
like to make people squirm when
they need to, and r like to applaud
them when they deserve to
be commended. When Truman
does something bad (which incidentally
he usually does), I like
to condemn him and when the
Republicans make a blunder
(which they do quite o!ten), I
like to pull them down tor it."
\Vllen asked what he considered
the g reatest news story to come
out in print, 1\fr. Blnnchard answered
immediately the election of
Franklin D. Roosevelt, since it
caused such tremendous l'efol'ms,
anxieties, and dis turbances ntrcct.-.
ing the whole American populace.
In all his years as a newspaperman
Mr. Blanchard says the
moat outstanding personality be
has met is General MacArthur.
He witnessed MacArthur's famous
ufarewell" addl'ets in the
House of Representatives and
eommented1 "MacArthur made. t\
great impression by his dignified
bearing, his poise and the courage
he dis played in his add•·css.
Today our nation ! aces many
difficulties. Mr. Blanchnrd believes
that one of our biggest
problems is that too many people
are swayed by their emotions.
"Too few of us really think into
any subject, but merely judge
from external appearant('s. I
often find it quite hard to look
at the other side of tho picture.
But that is what we must do nnd
then form opinions ourselves. This
is what I hope the Dtmoerot is
doing for its readers."
