interes t has been expressed an1dng the upperclassmen concerning the possibility of a freshman dance. Probably the greate~t impetus which this interest has received was given to it when a bUlletin appeared announcing a freshman meeting for the purpo ~e of planning the annual frolic. At t he meeting it was decided that th e dance would be held on the second Friday aner the Easter vacation.

This slight pause for station announmement-wait a minute!-that's the wrong article- the lapse of tim ~ between Easter vacation and the dance will allow some recuperation from holiday festivities.

The gymnasium was filially decided upon as the appropriate place for a dance which is to be strictly informal. The freshmen wished to have a fo rmal ball, but voted r e l uctantly a.gains t this because of th~ (Continued on Page 6)

, 'HAVE THE FRESHl'.'!EN SCORED?

When a fellow enters coll ege, he ;s sti li e lated over his recent CODluest- graduation from high school. (t seems to me that "hell week" was instituted mainly for the purpose of 'mpressing the Freshman with his inSignificance.

But--the phrac:-e "hell week" should be taken literally and not extended through the first three o r four months of his freshman career. The upper-classmen undoubtedly go beyond their bounds in attempting to ;how the ir superio·ri t y .

Their pa~e rnal caresses come at too f r e'luent lntervals.

If we are to retain that ancient and sacred custom, let it extend only as long as the phrase indicates. The freshmen of today are the upperclassmen of tomorrow. We must not enter nc'zt year with the spirit of resentment for our ill treatment by so-called upperclass sup~riors and wreck our vengeance on the freshmen-to-be in our attempts to get at the "seat" of their troubles.

Jim Crowley: I see no reason why this traditional week should be abolished. It . is . . . enerally understood by freshmen entering college that at some time, or another they will be subjected to an iniation.

Instead of dragging the initiation out over an indefinite per;od St. Viator College has chosen a more r easonable method ,to "ride" 'i.ts freshmen. "Hell week" has a l· ways proved t') be a very excitin g and interesting week coming as it does immediat e lv before the Christmas vacation. It therefore puts the '5tudents in good spi rits.

Continuing a precedent set by upper-classmen of ;iearS past, The Viatorian Staff again honors the Freshman class by allowing it to publish thIs number of the school paper.-'Vhe the r or not this iss u e is e ntirely successful depends upon the m eaning that we attach to the t erm. Our primary pprpose has been s imply to edit the paper. If, therefore . we are to mainta in the attainment of an initial objective co nstitutes the full me:lning of the t er m , s u ccess is ours.
