Led by the eminent Daniel P .

Ward, '40, Manager of the Bergin Debating Society, the College Chaper of Cisca inaugurated a very nt eresting and fruitf u l discussion r.. of the Papp.J zncyclicals. Displaying a very profound ltnowledge · of the onditlon s that brought a bou t the writing of "Rerum Novarum"' the great classic on the social order, Dan told of the Industrial Revolulion , the aggrandizement of wealth n the hands of a few , and similar a buses in the social order.

His definition of a living wage, taken fro m th e encyclical of Pope Leo XIII, brought on a very live ly dis ,. . . . . ._ cu ssion.

H owever, with nis wealth of knowldege of the Problems of Labor and t h e shrewdn~ss and dialectical acumen that is the result of his years of experie nce on the pubic platfa rm, Dan was able to anwer all objections very r eadily and o the complete satisfaction of all.

On the fo llowing Saturday, Daniel P . Ward, manager of the Bergin Debating Society and Francis Nolan, '40, upheld the n egative of the question, "Resolved that th e Several States should ado pt sys tem of Uni-Came ral Legislature." The decision w ill be given by the radio audien ce.

These radio debates, which will be broadca s t every Saturday afternoon from 5:00 to' 5 :30 p. m., will be continued until the beginning of May. Controver s ial s ubj ects of general inter est w ill be debated and many informal discussions will be be condu cted on pertin ent phases of current events. Such outstanding colleges a nd universities of the Middle West as Wheaton, DePaul, Chicago, Northwes t ern, Loyola, and Mundelein a r e exp ec t ed to participate in these broadcasts.

The debatin g t~am will resume its' olatform ac tivities when they me et Wheaton College on D ecember l6.

Last. year Wheaton won th e L ittle Nin e teen Debate Tournament when th ey nosed out St. Viator in a "debate -off" fo r first place.

-Man

i

By Geor ge B. Bresnan A rather colorful and picturesque p erson abc,ut the campus is the inimitable Clara. Clara was born and reared in Bourbonnais, a n d has been employed at the college for many years. She has endear ed herself to t h e hearts of all Viator students, nor is she forgotten by the alumni ; whenever and wherever you meet a Viator grad who begins inquiring about different characters abou t the campus , he will undoubtedly mention Clara.

She has been with the College . . since the days of Btsl1op Shtel, Monsignor Fulton Sheen: a nd a host of other famous a lumm. She may well be thought of as being the inspiration or subject of that ve ry popular of popular songs- "Little Old Lady Passing By, Catching Eve ryones' Eye''. Incidently one may h ear "Our · Clara" through various periods of .the day singing this very same tune while going about h er daily tasks.

As th e freshma n enters his room, for the first tim e in September, h e is greeted by our benevolent Clara.

During the course of the schoolyear h e becomes further a cquainted both with h er and h er numerous "knock-knocks", such as " KnockKnock," "Whose there?'' °Clarie m e back to old Virginia". By the time the freshman leaves Viator in June he has acquired a new and fine friend. It may well be said that without her the campus would be dark and dreary, she seems to furnish that necessary r ay of sunshine.

By Evelyn Doran Who is he, this phenomenon, modern man?

Women are besieged with advice on how to get and hold him! Their hands must be k ept wonderfully soft and smoo th. Their complexions must be sugges tive of a ros e petal.

They must possess a bewitching smile, enchanting eyes, and wear a scent that wi ll make them irresis tible.

They must be ever watchful of thei r diet; g uard. against . t he ravages of age; r e mam pe renma lly ~ youthful, and at all times be bright and cheery. Their whole being must be aglow in his presence. His rev ing eyes and appraising, furti ve glances, scrutinizing with enviable deftness every minute detail of their conduct and appearance from finger tips to toes co=and perfect daintiness and exquisite grooming. Verily, they must be paragons of all the virtues, clothed in loveliness.

(Writers Note--This idea cribbed from the Chicago Tribune).

P. S.- What about this, you Viator men do you agree with Miss Doran.

Let's hear your comment.

Courage Bows

To Strength Good old Browny, the faithful guardian of Fathe r Cardinal, the mascot of the President's offi ce and also the Treas urer's office, s uffer ed a broken leg on Thanksgi ving Day. With the courage of a ha lf dozen vicious Jions and tigers , Brawny attacked a huge police dog that invaded his sacred domains. Unlike the canin e heroes of story books, Brawny emerged w ith a broken leg as well as a broken spirit.

Due to th e untiring care lavis hed upon him by Brother Schoffman, C. S. V., who set his leg, Browny is able to hobble about the campus once more. Unless unforseen complications develope, Dr. Schoffman tells us that Browny will be as good as new in a few more days. Browny has lost much of his previous "cockiness" and is now th e very picture of canin e humility and obedience.

James Dohney(Continued from Page One) tioo and faculty of the College wish to extend their deepes t sympat hies to the su r v iving member s of the family.

The Very Rev. J. P. O'Mahoney, C. S. V., Provincial of the Clerics of St. Viator , the R ev. Dr. C. Marzano, C. S. V., and th e Rev. Wm. J. Cracknell, C. S. V. r epresented the faculty and assisted in the sanc tuary at the Requiem Mass.

A spiritua l boquet was offer ed by the members of the Sophomore and Junlor classes for the repose of the soul of Mr. Doheny ; it consisted in 210 Masses, 210 Holy Communions, 300 Rosari es and 500 aspirations.

H e is survived by his widow, Mrs. Julia Doheny, Vive-president of the Parent's Club, by his sons James, Jr., Frank, Thornis and Anthony, and by two daughters, Catherine and Martha.
