ALUMNAE TO RETURN
TO COLLEGE OCT. 27
"Back to College Day" for the
alumnae is aeheduled !or Satur·
day, October 27. This all day
affair is being planned !or the
second time in the history of the
college. The geneo·nl theme of
the day will be ·'Christian Counterattack."
Tn the moo·ning two periods of
talks will be given by different
members of the faculty. At 10:30
a.m. Sister Rose Marie, Sister
Paulette and Miss Fake will speak
to the various groups, At 11:30
the Alumnae will hear Sister
Margaret Theresa, Sister St.
Catherine, ~lias White and Mrs.
Jones.
Lunch will be served in the
cafeteria for both faculty and
alumnae at 12:30. Or. Lintz and
Fa ther Shannon will be the luncheon
speakers.
Sister Rose Angeln will ext<Jnd
to the alumnae the greetings of
the President and the rneulty of
the college. Following this, an ad·
dress on uAmerie:anism and Catholicism"
will be given by :dr.
Gwinn.
Benediction of the Sleased Sacrament
in the Oratory will conclude
the day. ,
Chairman of the alumnae program
is Miss Mary Baynes, '41 ,
who is at present house social director
of the Eastman School
dormitory. Other members of the
committee arc Marie \Vicdman,

began to mount. It was realiwd
that on the outdoor campus there
is not even a statue ot the
Blessed Virgin, let alone any
kind of a shrine where girls
could stop for a moment'• prayer.
Why $1,000? The outdoor
statue which the Sodality has
chosen is Our [A,du of Gruc' in
white stone stnnding nbout six
feet high. This Jlarticulnr statue
costs about $490. Now if only
$490 is raised the statue will be
put on campus. But the aim is n
beautiful outdoor shrine - cornplete
this year - a shrine which
will be worthy of N au reth College
and more than thRt, a worthy
offering to Mary.
The drive to rai$0 this large
amount of money lasts only one
month, from October I to Ncr
vember 1. The names oC all those
who donate $1 or more will be
ploced in the corner stone of the
shrine and their intentions will
be o·cmenobcred in the prnyet·s
sa id at our shrine M lon~r 88 the
shrine stands.
One additional fact is em1>ha·
sized. The Sodality is not start-ing
off this drive with a cheek
book stating that they have $990
and are asking the studenta to
rontribute just so they'll feel that
they have a share in thio ahrine
and hence appreciate il more. The
Sodality is starting otT with abler
lutely no money and it's upon
student generosity that the suecess
of their drive depends.

:-lazareth girls will lead the

at St. Joseph's Church on Oct.
21. The children, by lip reading.
will vocally recite tbe rosary.
This event has been made possible
by the interest shown by
the students here at college who
!or the last few years, on Monday
afternoons, hove assisted
Rev. John 1.1. Gallag her C. &.S.R.,
with religious instructions at tbe
Rochester School ror the deaf.
These girls teach deaf children
who have no other opportunity to
learn the catechism. This year,
they are going one step further;
they have organiz.ed a (lass in
sign language every Tuesday at
four o'clock in the speech theater.
The girls not only learn the
sign language, b ut also the man·
ual alphabet. This is necessary
because today schools for the
deaf do not mnk-c use oC ''8igns.''

A murmut· of voices rose from the city dump of
Lourdes. A steady buzz of talk sounded in t.he fields of
Fatima, as people conversed about these astounding
apparitions of the Blessed Virgin. At first they talked
doubt, then hope, and finally belief. And with belief
they fell on their knees, and lips no longer moving in
idle talk repeated again and again the simple prayers of
the rosary.
October is not just Mary's month. It is the month of
the rosary. Nazareth doesn't need the spectaculor vision
of ll1ary on our campus to bring us to action. Let the idle
talk slot> at either 11 :55 or 12:55 each day during the
month, that our lips may repeat again and again the
simple, beautiful prayers of the •·osary.
Korea Js11 't Jlistoru
Young people today are (acing a unique worldunique
in that they live not in a world at war-and not
in a world at peace. Yet seemingly in contradiction to
this, headlines of our papers mention Korea, but usually
to speak not of the fighting, but of the on-again off-again
peace talks that are going on there.
It seems that as far as John Q. Public or even Nancy
Collins of good old N. C., is concerned, Korea remains a
forgotten war.
Although the peace talks make us forget that actual
fighting is taking place, the fact remains that thousands
of souls, among them perhaps that of the boy around the
corner·, are leavinp; this earth every week via spots such
as Heartb•·eak Hil l.
Here at home attempts are being made to j ntegrate
the activities of our nation, and to control the distribution
of vast resources. and slowly, slowly the nation is swinging
into the harness so quickly shed six yeat·s ago. And
yet it seems that in the minds of the public this is in the
manner of (>reparation for possible war to come. rather
than the means of fisthting the one at hand, and therefore
not obligating an all out effort on the part of every individual
citizen.
Nancy Collins is a citizen of the United States. as well
all a student of ~azareth College. BPin~t ll student in
no wav lessens her duties as a citizen. What is her place
and where can she help? The fields where help is needed
nre many.
P1·imarily, no war on earth was ever won without
praye1·. Let's fi ll to overflowing ou1· parish churches and
college oratory, particularly for M~ !!S and Communion
eve1·y mol'lling, and in this month of Mary. the Rosarv.
Second ly. Civil Defense is cryinlt for volunteers t"' help
in orepa1·ation for possible attack. Tf we win in Korea
and lose at home, of what value will our victory be'/
The world is in a turmoiled state-but order will not
come out of the chaos unless every person in the countr.v.
including Nancy Collins, takes it upon himself or herself
to do the job.

It is fitting that Nazareth College should celebrate
Founders' Day, that day on which we look back to the
beginnings of our own college history, bv enterta ining
the administration and student body of John Fisher College,
since this school is the means of rounding out the
collegiate program of the Diocese of Rochester. This
reception will ma1·k the li rst official recognition by Naz·
a•·eth College of the new school. and we a ll extend a
hearty welcome to this new addition to the educational
horizon of Rochester.

SISTER ST. CATHERINE
REVIEWS NFCCS PLANS
"Special eoneideration should
be given to the tact that the National
Federation or Catholic Col·
lege Students is the first agency
ever to be officially approved by
the American Hierarchy as the
over·Ril o>·gan izntion in the Cath·
olic college student fie ld.'' These
a1·e the words of Sister Saint
Catherine, Ph. D., who is Nnz·
areth'a N. •·· C. C. S. Moderat<>r.
Sister Saint Catherine, a former
teacher at Saint Agnes High
School, Rocheeter. New York, received
her B. A. degree (rom
Saint Bonaventure University
and her Master's degree in Edu·
cation from the Univel'1!ity of
Rochester. Recently Sister re·
eeived a Doctor's degree from
the Catholic Univer•ity of Amer·
ica. Here at Nazareth she has
joined the Fnculty of the Educ,..
tion nnd Englioh Departments.
Sister stated the following as
objeetivca of the N. ~·. C. C. S.:
to aet as a medium tor the exchange
or ideas and experiences
on the part or the affiliated units:
to provide the membe1'1!hip with
suggestions and practical material
in the field or Catholic activ;ty;
and to represent and unite the
Catholic student body in national
and international lire.
As the saying goes, "Charity
begins nt. home." Sister Saint
Catherine explained that the actual
work of the N. F. C. C. S.
lx!gins on campus- right here at
Nazareth. What is the role of the
Catholic collell'e student! By taking
into consideration the following
three suggestions, you, the
Catholic college student can play
an important OJ>rt. Firat of all.
give an over-,all etudy or the purposes
and programs or all campus
clubs and then choose one or two
which espeeially meet your interests.
Secondly, give the group or
groups which you have joined
your loyal supporl. Thirdly,
s trive to keep informed on every·
thing pertaining to the field of
Catholic student uctlvlty. If you
earnestly carry out t hese three
suggestion&, you will greatly contribute
to the efficiency of the

Perhaps you never have given
much thought to college songs.
You know they renlly contain a
wealth of knowledge in a few
simple words. I ( you do think
about them you will learn a great

ntnkes each girl realize the joy
of ooing a big o•· little sist.el'. The
traditions oohind the word• tell
us of the g•·ent love we have for

Most of us Americans tount have passed into honorable obli•· 3
among our God·given inalienable
rights the right to critioize the
government and everybody in it.
and we do not hesitate to exercise
this right rully. Much of the
Cl"iticism aimed ut. the government
and its personnel is of the
mud-slinging variety, some or
which has n. foundation in fact
and some not.
But there Is another meaning
of the word ,.criticism" that we
often rorget.-it also means to
judge rairly, to evaluate. Per·
haps we ~uld use more criticism
in the second sense or the word
and less of the former which
seems to be the only meaning the
junior Senator from \Viseonsin
can find for it.
So in keeping with this idea
and just !or the sake of re(resh·
ment we would like to pass out a
few orchids to one of the U. S.
Senators who still believes that
he was sent to Wnshington not
"to play polities, to blut the administration"
but to concern himself

Senator Lehman baa a long·

One or the most t·evealing in· v

the McCal'l'an lnt81'ntll Security 0

of passing a law against Con> tl

it would be politiully dangerow H
to go on the record as opposin( C

Lehman believed the bill was th• ~

SENIORS VISIT VILLA
On Tuesday, October 2, the
senior Sociology majors sta.-ted
observation of institutions; pre·
para tory to their field work placements
in December. They went
to St. Joseph's Villa where they
were met by Rev. Arthur Rati·
gan, e.hail·man of the Family and
Child Divisions at the Catholic
Family Center, which is located
on Ches tnut Street.
The students learned that fewer
Catholic ch ildren are being
placed now in orphanages or in
foster homes due to the new tl·end
in .family counseling at the Cen·
ter which is appa•·ently having
good results. Father Ratigan al·
so stressed the fact that parents

Book Exchange Reports
The Mission's Second Hand
Book Exchange totaled a profit
of $3.67. Such a small sum was
due to the laek of books which
could be sold second-hand and the
small amount of interest that was
charged the owner.

the Exchange wishes to thank:
Jane Frank, Ann Grace, Mary

EASTMAN HOUSE OFFERS EXHIBITS
Ceorge Eastman House is the
beautiful georgian structure on
East Ave. , which is now a photo·
graphic museum. This building
houses the most complete eollec·
tion of its kind in the country.
Eastman house was built in
1905 by Mr. Eastman as his
home. He lived there until his
death in 1932. Eastman, who
made his fortune by inventing u
camera which was within the
price ranks of all, bequeathed his
home to the University of RochestcJ
·. For a period of time it was
the home of the Unive1-sity p•·es·
idents. In 1947 through the cOm·
bined efforts of the University
and Eastman Kodak Company,
it was tUJ·ned into a nonprofit
educational institution. It is now
chartered as such by the Univet
·sity of the State or New York.
On the fi•·st floo1· is found the
early history of photography and
step by step, one may follow it
until tltey reach the present techniques.
Many interesting details of
photography arc located in this
section, such as the: camm·as of
the h'st eentul'y which were not
all huge box atfnit-s as might be
supposed but ingenously dis·
guised as pistols, walking sticks
and opera glasses.
The intel·pretive value of the
photograph is exihibited in the
Print Galleries on the second
floor. Much of the best in this
are form may be found the•·e.
Photos by noted artists such as
Ansel Adams and Stieglitz show
the depths that may be reached
by this medium. Students may
upon request see photographs not
on general display .
PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE OF ARENA THEATEI<
uon Approval," Frede r i e k
Lonsdale's brittle sophisticated
comedy, being ptesented October
9-20, is the second fall production
o( the Arena players. Edmund
Johrtston's appearance as uRich·
nrd" fs his fir-st introduction to
Arena audiences. Other principal
roles in this London, England
setting are: George LaBuda, cast
as the Duke of Bristol, a nd Alice
Boyle as Maria, a wealthy widow.
The play proposes a new way to
test whether or not marriage will
mean an unhappy ending to ro~
mance.
The Arena players, formerly
known as the Genesee Valley
players, started the theatre-in·
the-round, the only one of ib
kind in Rochester, in November
1950.
The nucleus of the stock contpany,
namely Dorothy Chernuek,
director, Robert O'Connor, assist·
ant direetot·, Edward Ivory,
George LaBuda and Alice Boyle,
came from Catholic University.
Added to this group are Sarah
Scott, Edmund Johnston and
Marilyn Hurley.
Edward Ivory's pe1·sonality and
statm-e have made him a star
juvenile actor. George LaBuda's
finest talents are manifest in
comedy roles. Sarah Scott. for
many years a professional ac·
b·ess, portrays bitter cynicism to
perfection. Alice Boyle receives
much admiration in ingenue 1·oles.
Marilyn Hurley, also a former
Catholic University player, ex·
cites her audiences with her
breathless, wide-eyed, feather·
brained portrayals; her talents
do extend, however, to more seri·
ous dramatic parts. Two years
ago Miss Horley made an appearance
at Nazareth College
with the Catholic University
players in Shakespeare's " Much
Ado About Nothing."
The Arena players have set
high standa•·ds for their stock
company. All are required to
have at least their bachelor's de·
g1-ee plus previous professional
experience. The incorporated
playe•·s have worked with s tock
companies throughout the country.
Sloekl•olders participate in
determining the Theatre's policy
which ls, according to J{athleen
McKenna- publicity agent, "Good
play• p•·esented by good acto•·•·"
The Arena has no apprentices.
During the summer, however,
those interested in technician
work are allowed to study back·
stage procedure.
The Arena auditorium has
pt·oved to be most adequate and
adaptable to theatre-in-the-1·ound
productions. Small audiences are
preferred. The location on Hoelt·
zer street will be permanent.
Rochesterians are giving a
'\\'&rm reception to the art. Players
and business personnel have
observed A rena audiences as responsive,
well·educated people.
deeply interested in theatre. Audiences
have been encouraged to
meet the cast after performances
in an informal gathering in the
upstairs lounge.
The fall season will present
varied entertainment this year.
"Here Today" by George Oppenheimer
opened the season. The
play proved to be a fast moving
hilarious fat~ce in which a New
York cocktail playwright attempts
to n1arry ofT her ex-husband
to a Boston heiress, until
she discovers that she wants him
herself.
The remaining fall plays to be
presented are:
"On Approval" - .Frederich
Lonsdale.
"Browning Vers ion" - Rattigan.
'·Ways and llleans" - Noel
Coward.
" Devit's Disciple" - Sernat:.d
Shaw.
"High Ground" - Charlotte
Bastings.
The contemporary use of the
camera is portt-ayed also. In n
la•·ge room at the reat· of the
building almost every form of
modetn usc is dis played, and the
indespensible role it plays in
industry. eommetce, education,
and science.
Another important fea ture of
the Eastman House is the Dry.
den Theater. The eady silent and
sound movies shown in this
theater are a part of American
cultu.t·e. for they arc a form of
art that has been lost to the
present generation. They depict
t he ideas of a period that is now
history. These films are shown
without ehaJ'ge twice weekly,
combining both a film and a s hort
lecture on early motion pictures
as the basis of the art of the
movie industry.

On Wednesday morning, Oc·

by the members of the

Oct<>ber 1950 to work with Professor
Peter W. Debye of Cornell
Unh·ersity and subsequenUy
joined the Naureth faculty as a
Prof.,.sor of Chemistry.
Dr. NicholAs originally from
the industrial city of Baracaldo
in the Baoque """tion of northem
Spain received his doctorate
in chemistry at the University
of Madrid in 1940. Rere he
worked in the field of thermo
chemistry where he studied the
specific heats of solutions In
order to ascertAin certain proper.
ties of the solutions. From 1945
to 1950 Dr. NicholAs taught ot
the University ond nt the Mille
timo was head of two chemistry
laboratories for on A mericnn ond
German Industry ·respectively.
While nt the University, Dr.
Debye, who p•·evioualy hod been

Dr. Nichohis in coming to America
to work on research. Dr.
Debye: who is one of the greatest
physical chemists of our day, is
well noted as a Nobel prize winner.
For the past year Drs. Oebye
and Nicholis and several other
physical chemists have been
working on the organic eom·
pounds called Pol~-nus 1<> which
rubbers and plastics belong. This
work is developing a new procedure
for the ascertaining of the
size, shape and molecular weights
of molecules. This also is im·

new products.
While working on this research
project Dr. Nicholas endeavored
ta ftnd a Catholic College nearby
where he might be nble to continue
with his research while
teaching chemistry.
Even though Doctor teaches
many hours of chemistry each
week, he also finds time to continue
his studies and to work at
Cornell on weekends. Dr. Nicholas
wishes to express his appro·

It was going 1<> be dull. There
was none o! that frantic prepara.
tion or tingling excitement of one
who is going away 1<> college.
Most of the crowd were colleeting
addreSS<!~~, planning color ~hen1es
for their dorm rooms. and buy·
ing new clothes to pack in that
new luggage set they had gotten
lor graduation. Off they were
going ... ta Michigan, Heidel·
berg, Colgate, St. Lawrence,
Syracuse U! And I? I was going
to Pittsford f•·om Rochester
dnily! What a frame of mind I
was in those loot ou ltry weeks of
August. Unti l, one doy ...
l hnd just come home from
work In my usunl wny, J said,
"Hello, Mom. Any mnil?" To
my amazement, ahc replied,
"Why, yes, n letter from Nazareth,
I think." lnt.crcstcd but
still unarou•ed, I OJ>Cned the
large manila envelope. Inclosed
was the eut.cst facsimile of an
Army dufl'le bag. It turned out
ta be a letter from my big sister
class, giving me the Hacoop" on
Nazareth College, and also giving
me a much different conception of
the year I<> come. My doubts and
misapprehension• about school
were deftly erased. "That Let-tel'"
began a seri.. of exciting
incidents I<> eau.e plenty of excitement..
Up to the arrival of tAe letter,
all I knew about Nazareth was
the formal matter contained in
the catalogue, that I'd have I<>
get up with the birds 1<> m.ake an
8:00 class, bum midnight oil
every night of my college days
only to orient myself, after bo·
ing a "big wheel" Senior, to a
humble Freshman again. But
that letter showed me that Nazareth
was going ta be tops! In
fact, it might be as nice as go·
ing away to school ... come I<>
think of it, it might be nicer.
A few days later, I received n
letter from Ginny Teddy, my
college big sister. Ginny really
set me straight by telling me that
college was fun as well as edu·
cational. It all depended on me.
I realited through Ginny how
lucky I was I<> be going to Nazareth
whe.re individualism was
stressed. The large universities
were factories just processing
minds, not really caring about
the quality of the finished product.
I'd be getting more than edu~
ation; I'd be gaining a personal
experience dealing with God and
young women thnt I would never
forget.
To rny joy, I discovered that
my flrat e.lass wasn't until 8:40,
and perhaps, a few days a week,
even later. Ginny also assurrcd
me that if 1 made good use of
my fi'Ce time, 1 wouldn't be up
all night doing homework. And
didn't I think there was any SO·
eial life at Nazareth? Why the
cJaos of '53 had been planning
all summer how to entertain the
Frosh!
Oh, I was happy! I listened
1<> my friends plan to leave with
no regrets.. Perhaps J was mistaken,
but I thou~rht I saw some
wistfulness in their eye-S as l
related more news about Nazareth.
Of course, my family was
glad I had perked up. Mom and
I went shopping for clothes and
Dad encouraged my driving.
And then, on September 17, I
left from Rochester ta Pittsford.
The hour's ride was long and unfamiliar
faces were aU around
me. Finally, we reached Nazareth.
It was perched far back
from the road among the green
trees, glorious blue sky, fleecy
white c.louds, and a serene Peace
that I couldn't explain. Silently,
as I took in beauty before me,
l thanked God I had chosen Naz·
areth. I had come to something
11wrr than college.

Halloween, the even ing of the
31st of October, is the eve of A II
Hallows or the festival of All
Saints, which !nils on the first of
November. It is associated in
the popular imagination with the
prevalence of the supernatural,
and is actually a relic of pagan
times.
Each country celebrates Halloween
in a different way. In the
north of England, for example,
Halloween is known 81 nuttrac\c:
night. In ScoUand, the eeremon·
ies of the eve were formerly regarded
as being highly aupersti·
tious. Burns in his poem "'Hal·
toween,. gives a humorout and
richly imaginative presentation of
the ceremony as practiced In the
Scottish rural districts of hlo
day.
In America, there are no fancy
ceremonies-the children do all
the celebrating. Running around
the streets in their witch-like
attire, the children play trick• on
the neighbors in the hope of ob·
taining 8 few sweets. Some pco·
pie have partie&-it's u good way
to keep the children off the st•·eet
-and invite nil the neighborhood.
Costumes, games, and prizes,
topped off with eider nnd doughnuts
usually aatisfy them.
All this is enjoyed by the
younger set , with the older one8
looking on with an occasional
chuckle. To them, Halloween has
a much more serious and deeper
meaning. Hallow means t.o eon·
secrat.c or devote ta sacred pul'poses.
Halloween ushers in a day
that commemorates those who
have dedicated their lives I<> the
service of God-the Saint&.
So when Halloween rolls around

Dear Susie,
Sure did miss not coming bsck
to :o<azareth this fall. Seems
strange to have that B.A. degree
and be out in the "~de. wide
wo•·ld. I imagine things are popping
at school so snap to it and
send me nil the news that's floating
around the campus.
By the way. I heard through
the grapevine that Shirley Lorenz
is engaged to Jerry Tu<ker.
of LeMoyne. Have you seen any
of the football games this tall?
I happened to make the Coo·nciiSyraeuse
game n couple of Saturdays
a~to and who should I
run into but Schumacher and
Goodspeed. They were enjoying
themselves but Joanne seemed to
have a rather urgent look on her
face!!!! Also went to the Bonaventure
vs. Xovier game and met
Barb MooN!, with that cute Tom
Murphy. Shiola O'Grady and
some of her gong were also ehecring
for the team.
Heard from Carmen Thomas
and naturally it was Jack, Jack.
Jack. She's so proud of his pro·
motion to Sargeant-and I don't
blame her. She said Alice Buck·
holtz is making quite a spectacle
of herself Hooting around in her
new "pJaidu air ~ foam slippers.
Always trying to get into the act.
Hope the Senior Resident party
for the dayhops at LePuy is a
huge succeaa. Be sure and tell
me all about it. Will be anxious
to hear (rom you.
Love,
Frannie.
P.S. Give me all the dope on

Dear Susie.
What a boost your letter gave
