Our Bishop has returned to Rochester after an absence
of over one month's duration! During that time, he was at­tending

when he arrives to speak to the faculty and students about
his first-hand observations of the business of the Council and
of its ultimate aims and objectives.

As Thanksgiving approaches our thoughts turn once
again to the Pilgrims. The Pilgrims of 1620 found America the
answer to their search for land where they could find love
and happiness.
Today our country is still being settled by Pilgrims. The
many people that come to America from Communist-ruled and
undemocratic nations, are, like the Pilgrims, in search for
freedom to find happiness as they want it. A glance at the
front page of any newspaper will give us further evidence.
We can see from the Cuban Crisis, China under Red rule, and
the tense East Berlin situation, that people are sacrificing their
lives everyday for the freedom that we are born into.
We have much for which we should be grateful As de·
scendants of those first Pilgrims in America, we must keep
our country the haven for freedom and democracy, and
proudly uphold the precepts of "life, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness."

The Honors Convocation was an inspiration for all who attended
Students' Hour Thursday, November 8. Its purpose was to recognize the
students who have done consistently well In their college careers. Indi­rectly
It also bespoke the teachers who have directed the students; the
glorious warm colors o.f their hoods and the dignified black of their
gowns, in some cases decorated with the royal blue velvet of the degree
or doctor of philosophy, made us realize their value and worth in fur­thering
our academic pursuits.
Also, Doctor DeKoninck's lecture was very appropriate for the
occasion. His was not a talk which "summed up" or which made us
satisfied with our past performance. Rather, It made us realize that we
mortals arc never to be satisfied In this world In our search for Truth.
One criticism, however: our reaction to Doctor DeKoninck's talk
was perhaps such as not to realize the full Import of his words. The
Juniors, In busily associating his philosophy of Theology with their
reeent endeavors fo get a real understanding of the first two ways of
St. Thomas' Five, may have completely missed the potnt of the address,
though they were truly "tolerant" tn accepting the fact that the test
which they had recently ta.ken was necessary as a proof of their com­prehension
of the course material!
At this time The Gleaner would also like to apologize publicly
for describing our speaker, a famous theologian and philosopher as a
"student" at the University of Notre Dame. But, as Dr. DeKdntnck
himself said, we were not absolutely Incorrect, rather we were inexact.
November 6, we rllported that "Dr. Charles DcKonlnck ... Is presently
in residence at the University of Notre Dame, completing advanced
studies." We should have used the word "continuing" Instead of "com­pleting,"
for our speaker is a scholar; according to Webster's definition
"one who Is engaged tn advanced study, and acquired knowledge b
some speclaJ field."
THE GLEA NER
LETTER
Dear Editor,
At the risk of over-talking the
subject, I would llke to express
my opinion on the recently heated
discussion concerning the relation­ship
between Nazareth College
and a certain other nearby insti­tution
of higher learning.
I would first hastily admit­and
admonish those who will not
-that Nazareth women generally
enjoy the presence of the Fisher­men
brave enough to climb "Chas­tity
Hill." How well I remember
my freshman days, when nary a
strong male voice (begging the
pardon of certain faculty mem­bers)
echoed through our "hal­lowed
ha.IIB!" Even those young
men who <to quote a well-known
phrase) "seem to be good for oniy
holding up bricks," are comfort­ing,
in my Illogically feminine
opinion.
Ah, but there are those who
would rather "leave us than take
us." This. I respectfully submit, is
their right.
We are not accustomed, how­ever,
(and feel no obligation to
become accustomed) to that small
minority of Fishermen who deem
It a necessity, when they cannot
"lake" us, to present us with a
detailed report of exactly why
they would "leave" us. For some
reason, we do not expect such
things of men, especially In news­papers.
<Here I might add: jokes
are one thing-sarcastic ridicule
another.)
There Is vct·y little. however.
that we can do. I feel that the
majority of undergraduates or
Nazareth have acted with the de­corum
that beAts such a situation.
I would only llke to remind: them
that so have most of Fisher's
undergraduates. Perhaps It is only
a few Fisherboys who represent
their classmates and school so
poorly lately.
Thank YOU,
J udllb Spitzer '64

WOLFE
(Colltinucd from page one)
"Marx vs. Russia", was cited by
the lecturer. This pamphlet points
out that Marx bad a great distrust
of the Soviet republic; although
written In 1853 It reads almost
exactly like any article written
yesterday concernlbg Russian ag.
gresslon. Those countries which
have become puppet nations are
the visible effect of a great
amount of personal ambition of a
few men, rather tban the effect of
the extension or Communist ideals.
Mr. Wol!e emphatically stated
his strong belief that Russia would
never start a war with an equally
powerful country. Khrushchev is
not a lunatic like Hitler was; he
is intelligent, shrewd, ambitious
and-cautious. The Cuban situa­tion
Illustrated these points fer It
proved to Khrushchev that be can
go "only so far" In action which

To concludo his speech, Mr.
Wolfe referred to the Berlin situ·
atJon as still a potential trouble
spot. However he suggested a
counter-weapon against the Rus­sian
threat of cutting off the sup­ply
lines to West Berlin. His solu­tion
was to threaten, In return, to
stop Russian supply ships in the
Dardenelles entrance to the Black
Sea. We must 6ght ftre with fire
was the import or his words.
It was generally conceded, at
the end of the address, that Mr.
Wolfe had made a valuable con­tribution
to s tudent llfe. His lec­ture
made Nazarcnes more aware
of the world situation and In­formed
them as to the true mean­Ing
of the threat of Communist
control and domination.

BETH CAREY '62 WRITES NC: The Art of Nursing
PEACE CORPs· LIFE REWARDING By THE JUNIOR NURSING STUDENTS
Art means creativity; it is a making or doing of thin
that have form and beauty; it is a specific skill or its appli
tion. Florence Nightingale called nursing the finest of
arts. Nurses do not work on cold marble or canvas, but
living, human personalities. Just as a painter or sculptor co
bines and applies basic principles in his work and blends ·
them his own creativeness to make his unique production,
also does the nurse apply specific skills and fundamental p ·
ciples in her patient care. Through self evaluation and a d
understanding of the patient as an individual, the uniq
nurse-patient relationship is c~eated.
On Tuesday, October 30, East­man
Theatre was the scene of one
of the most entertaining shows of
the season when the Rochester
Civic Music Association presented
The Ltmeliters. This popular trio
is probably the most "uptown,''
versatile group of folk-singers on
tour today.
This letter was received from Beth Carey, written from
West Cameroon, Africa. It was mailed on October 22 Air Mail
and received by Sister Magdalen on October 29.
Beth's address is: Catholic Teacher Training Centre,
Small Soppo, P. 0. Buea, West Cameroon.
Dear Sister Magdalen,
Greetings from Small Soppo! I suppose you had given me
up for dead by now but you see I have just fallen into the
African way of doing things . . . there is always tomorrow!
I have so much to tell you that I don't know where to begin.

Opening the show with the fa­miliar
"Meetin' Here Tonight,'' the
Limelltcrs roused a receptive full

two hour program. Enthusiastic lis­teners
tapped their feet to such
favorites as "I'm Coin' Back" and
''Molly Malone," (both of which arc

ln contrast, the patriotic "Civil

I guess I will begin with my location. Small Soppo is about
15 miles from the coast, yet it is about 2400 ft. above sea level,
right on the slopes of Mt. Cameroon. It is usually quite misty,
but beautiful, nevertheless. Everything is a vivid green (us­ually
it has just rained!) and there are lots of red and yellow
flowers everywhere. When it clear I am able to view the sea
from my front porch, from Douala on the east, to Fernando
Po on the west. Fernando Po is an island about 42 miles out
from the coast and it consists mostly of a mountain, 8000 ft.
high. Then a little more to the west I can see little Mt. Cam­eroon
and then, the peak of Mt. Cameroon, 13,000 ft. It really
is an overwhelming sight especially at dawn when Fernando
Po reflects the red of the sunrise, and. at sunset when the sun
goes behind the Mountain, which casts a purple silhouette
across the sky. 1 never have seen anything like it.

Dear 1\1. !'Abbe: A moral rather
than a theological question: lor
the benefit of some Freshmen
whom I overheard discussing the
point, would you explain the ben­efits
of a college education for a
woman who will, In most cases,
eventually be married and devote
her entire llle to her family and
her home?
Ans. Excuse me, hut the ques­tion
Is very much of a theologi.cai
question, because It get down to
the very heart of God's plan for
women. While a woman exists a:s
a person and has a personal des­tiny
to achieve, yet there is some­thing
universal, even cosmic about
her. She exists also for the race.
There 1s a universality about her
which demands an educatlon that
Is broader, wider and deeper than
a man's. A man's work forces him
more and more to become a spec­Ialist.
A woman's role demands
that she be a universalist.
For a woman who becomes a
mother faces the gigantic task of
Introducing a baby to a world.
Sables need to be taught, not so
much something, but everything.
Thus a mother must become a
child's first teacher of theology.
His first and most lasting thoughts
about God are the thoughts that
she gives him. She Is his most

helped or hindered by what she
has done. She gives him his first
lessons in art-the art o! eating,
dressing, the art of making things.
She Is his first Instructor In sci­ence,
bombarded as she Is by his
questions - some of which even
the scientists haven't answered
as yet- as his insatiable curiosity
looks out on the wonders of God's
creation. Chesterton has put it
well:
"A woman Is generally shut up
In n house with a human being at
the time when he asks all the
questions that there are and some
that there aren't. It would be odd
It she retained any of the narrow·
ness of the specialist."
An educator cannot give what
he does not possess; indeed he
can only communicate a portion of
what he does possess. The broader
and the deeper the education a
woman receives during the years
of her growth to maturity the
more she will be able to fulllll
her role as universal mother.
A woman who becomes a teach­er
contributes something to other
people's children. A woman who
becomes a mother contributes
practically everything to her own
children. It would be a strange
thing Indeed to think that the one
needs a college education, but not
the other.

cause we learn It from lnlancy. The
power to believe In the sacraments
Is awesome. This belief Is given us
!1·eciy by God. How could we then
look down upon our neighbor who
lacks It? Dr. DeKonlnck answered
this question with the words of St.
John Chrysostom who said, "There
would be no more pagans ll we
were true Christians."

Up to Par Excellence
By SALLY BEECHER
All those who failed to attend the fall Roff Guild-SRO
presentation November 16 or 17 missed an excellent per­formance
of St. John Fisher and Nazareth Colleges' dramatic
societies. On the two evenings, at 8:15 p. m., the Fisher audi­torium
became the scene of Thornton Wilder's eccentric com­edy
concerning the ages of man in "The Skin of Our Teeth."

Ring Ceremony
Gives Seniors
Status Symbols
The Class of 1963 received their
college rings at a memorable cer­emony
last week on November
7th. After each girl's ring was
blessed by Father Shannon in
Alma Mater Chapel, a dinner was
served to the Seniors by their
Little Sister Class. After dinner
Sister Helen Daniel spoke to the
Seniors pointing out that the
weight or their dstinctive college
rings symbolized the wisdom that
class had gained at Nazareth and
the responsibilities they bad in the
future.
On each ring, the Nazareth Col­lege
Seal is embossed on either
side o fan amethyst stone. The
seal is surrounded by the laurel
wreath, symbol of academic vic­tory.
A lamp whose light is truth
and which rests on books, Is sym­bolic
of the Nazareth woman who
bears the lamp of learning always.
A cross is in the center, an appro~
priate place for the symbol of
Christ who is central ln all our
lives.
As it is stated in Interpreta­tions,
"the College gives its ring
as a symbol of its sanction, its
approval, of this young woman
going out forever as a Nazareth
College graduate, and It promises
its prayers and help through the
years to come."
After a brief, fatherly message
Father Shannon introduced "The
Black Sheep," Senior songsters
who brightened the scene with
popular numbers.
