Don't Be A Newsmaker
Stay out of the headlines this Christmas vacation! Along
with being the happiest season of the year the ChristmasNew
Year holidays are potentially the most dangerous. Last
December, traffic accidents took a toll of 262 lives. The majority
of these could have been avoided-with care. The very
first rule to remember is: U you DRINK, DON'T DRIVE! This
means you-and your date, and it means one drtnk.
Holiday relaxation is not relaxation from safe driving.
It is a time for extra cbarity and consideration-even to those
other drivers.
We hope to see you all 1n the new year, healthy and
rested. So ... DON'T BE A FATAL STATISTIC TI-DS

reserve of a book is a necessary evil, especially for day-hops,
although it does produce inconvenience for those who must
do such work at nlght when the book is no longer on the
reserve shelf. But weekend reserves seem to be unnecessary
-the inconvenience provoked by disappearance of a book for
that long outweighs the necessity or the day-hop who will
probably use it for only a few hours at most.
Is it necessary that this type or reserve be revoked in
order to bring about a judicious use of the privilege? Is it
not possible that the students themselves could return books,
especially reserve books. as soon as possible after finishing I with them, in order to facilitate the problem for their friends?
The President Speaks 1
... On the President j
We Americans and especially we Catholic Americans
have many reasons to be thankful this holiday season. This
past year has given us two living witnesses by the name of
John-John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Pope John xxm. men
whose lives were testimonies to peace and brotherhood and
whose deaths made their message universal.
The message has been proclaimed: it is the springtime
of America, there is a call Cor justice, and it is for Americans
to place actualized ideals above complacency and justice written
in law books and not in the hearts or men; it is the springtime
of the Church, there is a call for "aggiornamenlo," and
It is for Christians to place love above hate and offense.
These are messages that demand a response-not only a '
response of acceptance and correction, but also one that flows I
into action, not only as individual response but also a collective
one.
As President of the Undergraduate Association, I hereby
suggest the following as a collective response for the Nazareth
College student body:
1. Prayers for President J ohnson. (A letter was sent to
the President pledging Nazareth's support and prayers. A
prayer for the President wlli be placed outside Alma Mater
Chapel.)
2. Support for the civil rights bill. (The J unior Class has
posted a map of the Congressional districts of N.Y.S. and the
congressmen from these districts. They have also written a
form letter wbicb serves as a copy of what could be sent to
congressmen.) Second semester Inter-racial Council is presenting
a program on civil rights.
3. SuP.port for a clothing, toy and/ or book arive for the
underprivileged in the Rochester area. (Sodality sponsors
Christmas food baskets for the Rochester families and second
semester Inter-racial Council will collect clothes, toys or books
to send to institutions tn Rochester.)
4. Awareness of the proceedings of the Ecumenical Council.
(Newspapers and magazines are available in the library.
Sodality and Missions will sponsor a program on the results
of the Council next semester.)
Last Wednesday a Mass was offered for our late president.
A Mass card was sent to the Kennedy famliy and It was
this Mass whicb was celebrated.
"There was a man sent by God whose name was---."
Each one of us fills this description for eacb or us tn different
ways is called to be a witness to our faith and to American
Ideals. U we have not begun to answer, let us do so now.

Days We Can Never Forget
by Roberta Stoffel by Carolyn Sutera
(Ed. note: Roberta hu been employed as a babysiHer, or
governess, for the post two summers by families in Hyannis
Port.)
"Ladies and gentlemen. I give to you, the President of
the United States of America."
It was my privilege to have observed, first hand and
often, the first family during their last two Hyannis Port
summers.
It has been somewhat disturbing to me to read in the
newspaper that "Mrs. Rose Kennedy, the President's mother,
bas attended Mass every day since her son died." I have been
upset because of the inaccurate situation which has been im·
plied by the above statement. During my two delightful summers
in "Kennedy-land" as my family bas called Hyannis Port,
I literally rubbed elbows every morning at Mass with the
President's mother, his sisters, sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law,
nieces and nephews. Rose Kennedy used to leave at 6:30 each
morning, drive the three miles to St. Francis Xavier Church,
say the stations, and then attend the 7 o'clock Mass. Ethel
Kennedy, wife of the attorney general, and seven of their
eight youngsters; Eunke and Sargent Shriver and their three
children, Maria, Bobby and Timmy were always at the 8
o'clock Mass. And I remember the morning I wondered who
could be trying to squeeze in at the Communion rail next to
me and ended up moving over to make room for Mrs. J acqueline
Kennedy.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, bronzed and fresh, stepped forward.
On that January day, his youth brought to the White
House a breath or fresh air. His inaugural speech marked the
strength and courage with which his short term of office
would be carried out.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, duly elected chief of state, the
first Catholic and one of the youngest presidents in the history
of our nation, WAS America. On November 22, 1963,
news or the shots which rang out in the streets of Dallas came
to his people.
Then, "the President Is dead." We couldn't comprehend.
"The President is dead." We tried not to hear, perhaps trying
not to believe. "The President is dead." "Greater love than
this no man bas that a man lay down his life for his friends."
We turned to his lovely Jacqueline. "Who shall lind a
valiant woman?" Scripture now had its answer.
The President's family first impr~ssed me by their deep
dynamic faith, and second by their naturalness and their un·
pretensious air. I especially recall the afternoon when I
stopped in at the President's house to pick up one of my
charges. Guess whom I met coming through the side door
- ducking under hanging overalls and socks on the porch line
To express our feelings of loss would be rutile. There
are no words. Shocked and stricken, we stand helpless in the
face of death. John Fitzgerald Kennedy has been taken from
the people and given to history. It is a bit ironic that death
should stand aside in the happenings of a world war and a
PT boat and then thrust her icy fingers forward in a moment
of glory. . .
- Mr. and Mrs. John F. Kennedy. The couple laughed and
then explained that their gray parkas were too damp from an
afternoon of sailing to "track in on the new living room rug."
• • •
My thoughts now are or 1\lrs. Kennedy's sadness, and yet
of her joy. too. For it seems to me as I reflect upon these past
weeks that despite her keen suffering, she is accepting the
graces or Christ and the pe.ace of knowing that she bas successfuUy
answered His call. On September 12, 1953, Jacquetine
Kennedy accepted the responsibilities or marriage. The
acceptance of the graces of the sacrament or Matrimony have
enabled her to thus far support and strengthen her husband
at the heights or greatness-and now to the Beatific Vision
Itself.
Two flags adorned the bronze casket of John Fitzgerald
Kennedy in the rotunda on Capitol Hill-one of the United
States and the other or the President of the United States.
J ust as his soul is immortal, so too, both the nation and the
presidency live on. If our feelings are those of fear and all
our memories are of grief and sadness alone, then, as President
or the United States. he shall have died in vain. John
Fitzgerald Kennedy has found the peace he sought so fervently.
Before our mourning is over, indeed even before it
has begun, our thoughts must turn to the future. Tbere are
duties which cannot wait even in sorrow and tragedy.
An assassin has killed a man-a great man, it's true.
1 think one could do no better than to imitate the actions
of this woman or deep faith.
Death bas revealed his eminence. But the death of this man is
not the death or the presidency. This is precisely why we can
be proud or our nation, one which stands for all the world to
s~table. democratic, free.
Christmas in August:
A Revelation to
SRO-ROFF GmLD PRODUCTION
Me · MERITS REVIEWER'S PRAISE The December fifth performance of Anton Chekbov's
l ·comedy In 4 acts,' The Cherry Orchard, in the N.C.R. Audi·
torium. was a production to be proud of. The theme of the
play is as difficult as it Is rewarding. Built around the breakdown
of the old noble class in the Russia of the 1880's, the
play deals with the symbolic auction for debt of an old family
home and its wonderful (but unseen) Cherry Orchard. Its
owner, Madame Ranevsky, and her delightful household make
the painful adjustment from the carefree days of their youth
and wealth, to the sober daylight of today's exigencies. On
another level, Mr. Joseph Baranowski points out in an excellent
program note to the play, "As in life, people objectively
viewed are comic because they are ineffectual, because they
arc so wrapped up in their own trivial interests they cannot
see what is happening around them, because they get rebuffed
every lime they begin to build a dream world, because conversation
is a series or non sequitors, because they strive and
never succeed." To portray this normalcy as t.he funny, t.Fagic
eccentricity it really is, required no small penetration and
sensllivity in the interpretation or each role, and almost without
exception, each role received it. The main credit for this
job or thorough and sensitive exposition of a difficult theme
must be given to Mr. Baranowski, as Director. Every part was
competently done, but five or six individual performances
cannot pass unnoticed, Chris Coleman played Madame Ranevsky
with grace and genuine compassion. Sheila llfcCartby as
her daughter Anya was spring in the bouse and the bloom
on the cherry orchard. Dave Perry and Ferde Smith, as an
idealistic student and a good, blunt peasant, respectively, gave
solid performances enhanced by understanding and humor.
These four, along with John Everett as Gaev and stacey Weilandt
as Varya, moved the audience to see the tragedy of
ordinary human intercourse. Denny Barrett, as the ancient
valet Firs, used perfect physical qualifications with intelligence
and glee. Gabriele Wickert, in a small but intensely
conceived part, carried it off with such presence and aplomb,
and used her voice so beautifully, that her entrances were
exciting and her exits left holes. These two, as well as Gene
Walz as Vasha the valet, Karl Dash as the wheezy Landowner,
and Danny Holland in a momentary role ·as a vagrant, de·
lighted the audience into seeing the comedy of daily life.

Nameless Ten Helps Realize
iNazareth's Greatest N ·eed'
The Nameless Ten, a singing group with
the interests of Nazareth at heart, have cut a
record to raise money for the Fine Arts Building.
Mary Kay Baker, Kathy Bennet, Maggie
Dunn, Rosemary Faso, Nancy Griffin, Pat
Herrling, Monica Riley, Sandy Sheflin, Caroline
Waligora, and Stacy Weiland! form the
group.
The Nameless Ten are actually eleven if
you count Kathy Benedict, the group's arranger
and piano player. The group started
when the gfrls were Juniors. They used to
gather in Lourdes Lounge to sing. One night
someone. nobody can remember whom, suggested
they work up a repertoire and sing for
some school events. Their first appearance
was at Salute to Sports last year. At this time
they sUU didn't have a name so they started
caling themselves the "Nameless Ten." After
they sang at Parents' weekend, their biggest
goal, they received more and more requests
tor appearances. The record came about il
the same way as the group, as an unspok11
Idea. They made the record at Lifetime Stuilios.
Their business manager for the record b
Diane Connors. Nancy Griffin described the
session as grueling. It lasted 5 hours aod
during that time the phrase "Nazareth'!
greatest need is a Fine Arts Building" kept
them going. The record is called "Things
Look Swell" after their theme song "Evel'1'
thing's Coming Up Roses." It will sell lor
$4.25. The record has 18 songs includi!il
"Two Sleepy People," "Me and My Shadow,
"Round and Round," "Red Leaves on tilt
Campus Green." Making the record was ri!a!JT
a big venture. In fact the group becoma
frightened at the thought of bow much mODfJ
lhey owe. After the first 300 records se!l,
the profit will be greater on the remalniDC
sales. The Nameless Ten would appreciate Ill
the help and support they can get.
What We Can Do Letters • • • (Cont.)
At J ohn Howard Grltrin's recent
lecture, someone asked.
"What can we do?" When the
answer eame, I felt the usual
letdown. 1 alwayt expect some
adventurous deed of glory, some
dlllicult tuk to perform. With
the letdown, all my strong resolu4
lions die. But I think Mr. Grlf·
ft.n wu at a bit of a loss for an
a.nswer. too. Mr. OrUI'Jn has found
his horizon. and he Is doing his
p>rt. But he eannot decide what
can be done he..,. This Is Rochester.
