Crim~ Subj~ct ''How to Live'' is ~ Cisca Convention Of DlSCUSSton • rSet for March 26 lJy Fr. Maguire Topic of Address"'-'-and 27 in Chicago

by Fr. J. Farrell The Central office of Cisca will sponsored the 'Chicago Regional Session of the Students' Spiritual Leadership Movement Convention at the Morrison Hotel on the 26 and 27 of this month, according to its Moderator, Father Carrabine.

The purpose of this session is to formulate the most acceptable possible program for Catholic Activity in Catholic colleges, schools, and nursing homes -to draw from the student delegates as much information, comment, suggestion, and criticism as possible which will serve to make that program entirely practical. It intends to assist in the formation of a program whereby Catholic Action can be m ore effec tively brought into the schools.

Hence free and open discussion by the delegates w ill make up the program of the Regional Session. Therew ill be no formal speeches. Informal discussions wi ll occupy all of the time. Resolutions will formulate the results of these discussions.

Out of the r esults of the various Regional Sessions a complete progz a.:.1 \\ ta be ior:uml&l-ed anti pre~ sented to all the schools of the country for the coming two years.

Since the facilities for assemblies at the hotel are limited, students wishing to attend are urged to make arrangements as soon as possible with our moderator, F a ther CracknelL Players Select "Masterful Monk" The Cisca players have selected "The Masterful ' Monk" fo r presentation on AprU 4 and 5 in the K. C. hall in Kankakee.

The play, taken f rom the novel of the same n ame by Owen F rancis Dudley, concerns <the rivalry between the fanatical Verrers and Father Anselm Tb r,n ·ton; the regeneration of the soul of Eric E sterton, a young Eng lishman, crippled by a fall during a ouD.tain climbing expedition, and the love s tory of Beauty Dethier and Basil Esterton , Eric's younger brother. Brother Martin McLaughlin, C. S. V., will direct the production.

Continuing his series of weekly tadio round table discussions being broadc·a st over WCFL, Rev. J. W. R. N!aguire presented on March 6 an interesting dis cussion on the s ubject of "Crime". Judge J. Harrington, Chief Justice of the Criminal Court in Chicago and Mr. Frank Donoghue, Assistant State's Attorney participated with Father Maguire in this discussion. Perhaps the most inte resting feature of the broadcast resulted from the f8.ct that the three m en approached the subject from differing viewpoints.

J»dge Harrington took the discus·s ion, as it were, to the bench, presenting it from .a judicia l viewpoint.

Mr. Donoghue pictured the scope and avenues of crime as seen by the prosecutor, while Father Maguire dealt with the st>cial significance and causes underlying crime.

These rouna table discussions are broadcast every Sunday evening over WCFL, Chiccigo, from 6:00 to 6:30.

This debate was one in the series of weekly radio debates which are broadcast each Saturday afternoon from 5:00 to 5:30 over WCFL, Chicago. ·

Two Viator debate teams journeying to participate with 58 other colleges in th~ Manchester-Huntington debate tournament on February 26 and 26, emerged with a score of seven debates won and five lost.

In view of the nature of the tournament and the large number of t eams participating, the Rev . J. W. R. Maguire, debate coach, expressed himself as being satiSfied with the showing made by his charges. The w ranglers who represented St. Viator were Martin -McLaughlin, C. S. V., '39; Donald Foley, C. S. V., '40; William McCue, '40, and Daniel Ward, '40.

Gift Adds To Chapel Beauty r

I

At a large gathering of the H oiy Name Society on Saturday evening , March 12, in the Common s Building, the R ev. J. P. Farrell gave a ve r y Vivid and graphic answer to the interesting and important question, " How to Live" . His experience a.s Chaplain of the State Prison Pontiac, Tilinois, stood him rn' good stead ,as he illustrated his points by examples of his experiences with prisoners. Among other things, Father Farrell s tressed the need of moderate living, pointing out that people who spend "$50 per week while earning $25" constitu te a large percentage of the prison population.

Debating Team in Tournament At Manchester

Through the untiring perseverance of the Rev. Dr. E . V. Cardinal, C. S. V., President of St. Viator College, the localized units of the Parents club are solidifying and showing unhoped for strength in the accompishment of th eir aim: the closer relationship between the parents of the students and the members of the faculty.

At the present time Father Cardinal h as asked these groups to lend their aid in redecorating the chapel.

Their response begun in Bloomington a few weeks ago was carried on by the combined Kankak ee and Bourbonnais units. On Sunday, February 27, a card and bunco party was sponsored in the College Library under the auspices of the Kankakee and Bourbonnais Parents' Clubs. Entertainment given before the card playing began was a favorable start t o a most succeSsful afternoon and evening of card p lay ing. One of the most encouraging things noticed was the s pontaenious friendliness shown by a ll present.

The Joliet unit und er the leadership of Mrs. Boyle sponsor ed a similar party on Sunday, March 13, at the Elks Ballroom in Joliet. Since the foundation of the Parents Club Mrs. Boyle has been one of its s trongest members and under her guidance the party was an unqualified success.

Rosary's Co-eds Conquer Viator Spellers; 35 - 22 .

Unable to withstand the fierce ons laught of the speller s from Rosary College, the Viator spellers, led by the redoubtable " Pinochle" Dan Ward, tasted the bitter dust of ignominious defeat in a contest held over radio st a tion WJJD on S a turday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. The score was 35-22 in favor of Rosary at the end of a half hour of merciless and ferocious combat, but even this score is not indicative of the r emarkable superiority evidenced by the spellers from Rosary.

The Viator men who suffered the tortures of embarrassment and dis tress for 30 minutes1 and who de serve a merciless "Razzing" from the student body are: Charles Gilbert, Alfred L a mbeau, L eo Paulissen, Edwin R ooney, Harold Sandquist and Dan Ward.

Much good was accomplished in spite of terrific defeat. For example, Ward knows that pinochle i s · not spelled- P E A N U C K L E and all of them know enough to k eep out of spelling contests in the f uture. The defeat was exc used on the grounds that our men broke training rules.

Harold Sandquist, bent on obtaining r evenge, very cordially invited the Rosary students to participate in a football game in the near fu ture; 1'Leather Lungs" demanded a contest to see which side could "Howl" the loudest. Both 'invitations were politely declined, so the !(Green Wave" w ill have to start training for another spelling contest.

Father Bergin in .L~ddress on "The r-: Means of l(nowing I Divine Revelation.,., I

• /

~e Rev. William J. Bergin, C. S. V.~~ead

of the Department of Philoaopby here, gave an address to a group of non-Catholic Theological studcnta on "The Means of Knowing Divine Revelation''. In his address, Father Bergin stressed the "Impersonal, Objective reasons upon which the claims of the Catholic church are founded." He answered the question, "Why should anyone be a Catholic", so well that it was printed In Its entirety in the March 4 issue of the New World. Since that time, his address has been acclaimed everywhere as a masterpiece of applied logic. Because of our limited space, we cannot publish the entire speech. However, many requests for reprints have been received, so in all probability the a rticle wlll be reprinted in pamphlet ,form in the near fut ure.

Must Know What G<>d R evealed Father Bergin firs t of a ll established the fact tha t ther e must be "Some meana appointed by God Himself whereby we can know what is r equired of us. As a matter of fact all Christians admit, as they must, that God has actually provided us with the means without which we could n either know nor do what God requires of us. To the question who or what is thi~ means, 1 all Christians {vill return one· or! two answers. Catholics will say: it is the infallible t eaching authority of the Catholic Church; Protestants will say: it is the Bible interpreted by the judgement of each individual believer ."

States Proposition t.o be Proved Using the severely logical .form for which he has become so famo us, Father Bergin then clearly stated the proposition which he intended to prove by using the following logical form: "T he means appointed

by Almighty God to enable us to know the truths of Divine Revelation which H e requires us to believe, and the laws which H e commands us to obey is either the Bible privately int erpreted or it is the infallible teaching authority of the Catholic Church. But it is not the forme r. Therefore it must be the latter."

Not the Bible Alone Fathe'r Bergin then devoted his time to a proof of the proposition that the Bible is n ot and cannot be tl>e sole ground of Christian faith and practice. H e divided the proof of his proposition into three parts: "Without some competent authori ty independent of the Bible it is impossible first, to settle the canon of Holy Scrpiture, that is, to determine what is the inspired word of God and what is not; second, to establish the sufficiency of the Bible, that is to prove that the Bible contains the whole revealed word of

On the d.e ck of the frigate, emittlng rasping sounds through blackened teeth and tobacco-stained lips stood one of the most evil and slnister looking characters I had ever seen.

From his jaw extending aimost to his drooping eye was a livid scar causing him to have on his face a constant diabolical sneer. A lashing, hissing rain was pouring down and running off of his matted, greasy hair and oil-skin sUcker in minature streams. An expression of underhand malevolence showed itself in his cadaverous eyes which were set in bistred, deep-set sockets. His arms were too long for his body. He bad only one leg the other being cu t off at the knee which made it necessary for him to jump along wi th the B.id of a crutch.

At present he was grasping for support, the rail of the de"ck with a palsied and pouty talon and with each lurch and pitch af the ship ghastly curses in his grating voice we re audible. In one of his ears which was half slashed away he wore a large gold ear-ring that was probably a replica of past buccaneering days. When the ship tossed more than us ual his clawing a t the rail s uggested the effort of a moribund murderer s ummoning all of his r emaining strength for a last stab, an<l made evident gouty swellings on his wrist and forearm. Each time, after he had been s uccessful in m aintaining his precarious position he let out, between oaths, a sort of lnaane cackle.

Finally he saw m e and noticing that I had been observing him. He came toward me with an un'believ~ able rapidity. His f ace was black with rage, his free arm dangled and fl~~oyed the air like the wing of a giant vulture, hi's 6ody swayed with the conculsive niovements of the boat but his progress was not hindered.

"What will he do ?" "What does b e intend to do?" No doubt about it, rm going to be forced to move plenty fast.

Say, how would you like to meet this gentleman while going down the proverbial dark alley? Incidentally, th e Monogram Dance is not far off.

But in spite of its value, intrepid verbal athletes, the members of any distinguished debating society are having. the privilege of addressing large groups of inanimate objects, such a~ d esks, chairs and benches instead of intelligent audiences. .

It was the first tim e that McElligott had led the varsity score rs and In doing so h e made an a verage of 35.6 per cent of his attempts. His free throw p ercentage was third best on the squad. H e sank 57.5 p er cent of his chanty shots.

Danny Blazevich closed his career by playing more minutes than any other member of the squad. The inimitable Croat played 721 out of a possible , 800 minutes. McElligott and Bud Monahan followed him, with Red getting 667 and Monahan playIng 659 1-2 minutes.

The v ictory was the seventh in a row for the Bums and likewise was the seventh consecutive defeat suffer ed by the Mudders.

Burmeister disposed of his most formidable opposition by stopping the Facists 14-7. Burmeister made three baskets and a fre e throw for seve"n points. Ferrara's three point total was tops for the thir d floor team.

Burmeister's leareds con tinued their r elentless march for the title by climbing over the Crows" 15-9.

Bimmerle hit seven points for the winners. Allen Clark connected on seven out of eight free' throws and added a basket for nine points but got little aid from his mates as the Mudders lost to Murphy's Hot Shots 30-16. Mulvaney, with 12, and Murphy, with ten points led the - winners.

Regan's Wilken Family reopened the second semester activities by n otching a 17-10 victory over Dionne's Day Dogs. Stoltze led the winners with 4 field goals while Maguire's 6 points was top; for the losers.

The followi ng night O'Connell's Nomads continued their victory string by taking a close contest f rom Nelan's Hoosiers 16-11. Close g uarding was the feature of the game with Vince Murphy's 7 points fo r the Hoosier s being high for the cont est. The winners continued to show plenty of class and it will take a r eally "hot" team to down them..

Frank Halpin went on a scoring spree to the tune of fourteen points as Sweeney's Jockeys overwhelmed the Day Dogs 31-8. Lee for the Jockeys and McDonald for the losers ranked next in scoring honors with eight points each. The fourth tloor boys are playing just about the best bail in the league a t present·. and will probably give the leaders many a scare befo r e the league t erminates.

H aworth's Wolves took a hardfought 25-20 decision from Nelan's Hoosier s in spite of plenty of opposition mainly from Vince Murphy who scored 11 points. Bob Bates matched Murphy in scoring and turned in a s t ellar floor game for the winner s. Murphy seems to be attemp ting to get a lot of intramural experience as he has played with allout every t eam in the league thus far.
