Senior Sees Pius X Canonization Salve Regina possesses a first class relic o f Saint Pius X through the generosity of M ary Mcintire, class of '55 who was a member of the Cardinal Spellman Marian Year pilgrimage to the shrines of Europe. This precious gift rests on Our Lady's altar, a fit resting place indeed for the saintly Pius. As the high light of her tour, Mary attended the canonization at Saint Peter's on May 31. The request for canonization was presented three times. At the end of the third request, Pius XII intoned the Veni Creator. This ancient hymn was taken up by the mulitude in a tremendous swell of song. Our
1-!oly Father read the decree of canonization and set the date of the new feast August 20. The trumpets rang out, the church bells throughout Rome chimed in thrilling tribute to the beloved Pope of rhe Eucharist. His portrait was unveiled amid the spontaneous applause and the glorious Notes of the T e Dettm. Pius XII hailed his predecessor as "the glory of the priesthood and the beauty of Christian people". To have had one of our college students present on such an occasion makes us at Salve Regina very proud and very privileged.

Mr. T. Maynard, Noted Author Discusses Saint Thomas More Mr. Theodore Maynard, noted poet and historian, will discuss "St. Thomas More : Humanist as Hero", here on October twentySIX.
MR. THEODORE MAYNARD
As one of the most prominent Catholic authors of the day, M r. Maynard has led a very exciting life. Born of Protestant missionary parems and raised in India, he was received into the Church in 1912. He was a Dominican novice in England for a short time, but he left and travelled to the United States in 1920. By a quirk of fate, he became a college professor before he received his degrees. While a professor at Fordham, he obta ined his B.A. and completed work for his M .A. and Ph.D. ar Georgetown. Although he did nor intend a writing career, he found himself composing articles and poems mostly for G. K. Chesterton's N ew Witness, and rhus became a promising author. Among his more famous works are: T oo Small ct lt/or/d, St ory of Am erican Catholicism, The Book of Modem Ce~tholic Prose, and Tbe Book of Modem Catholic
Verse.
Newport Studen ts Plan Marian Mass As a climax to .Mar ian Y c.tr observances, Catholic gr:unm .tr and secondary school pupils o f N ewport, Portsmouth, and Jamestown, :IS well as college students, will at tend a Solemn High M ass on rhe East Terrace ar Salve R egina on October eighteen at 10 a. m. Rev. Thomas H . Driscoll , curate ar Sr. Augustin's parish and religion teacher ar Sr. Catherine 's A cad emy, has assumed rhe duties of general chairman. Father Driscoll has announced the following as onicers of the M ass: Rev. J ohn T. Shea, Celebrant; Rev. Thomas H. Driscoll , Deacon; Rev. Peter J. Maguire, Sub-Deacon ; and R ev . Joseph D. Schenick, Master of Ceremonies; and Rev. Gerald F. Dillon, Preache r. Several church dignitari es have been invited ro attend , including ; Rr. Rev. Thomas V.

Mu sic is under general d irecrion of Brother Basilian, F.S.C.
He has written biography, criticism, and history, but he st ill considers himself primarily a poet and rhis he values most. His formula for writing consists of planning the work in his mind , writi ng ir down completely, and then revising. This method certainly leads to success; his books have been acclaimed by critics and readers everywhere.
Year's Initial Social Event Benefits 7955-Regina Maris To help finance the 1955 edition of Regina Maris, rhe senior class will sponsor an informal dance on October sixteen at Ochre Court. Joan Howell , general chairman, will be assisted by .Esrelle Daglis, chairman of publicity. The theme, "M ood Indigo" will be created by purple and blue decorations. Peggy Mullaney, Mary Maclnrire and Anne Manning are in charge of these. The refreshment comm ittee includes: Juanita Ocasio, Mary Davis, and Norma Auberrine. Mary Mondi, chairman of music. has engaged Yin Capone for rhe affair. Parents of rhe committee members with Father Dillon and Father Shea will be guests.
Pope Names New Feast Of Our Lady: Maria Regina When the record of the Marian Year is written, the roral of the p ublic and private devotions ro the Morher of God will be staggering in its mag ni tude. During this yea r Mary has been honored, praised, invoked in every language, in every climate, in every manner conce ivable by the lov ing genius of her children. Some of the celebrations have been impressively grandiose wi th hundreds of tho usands of the fa ithful and every kind of ecclesiast ica l di g ni ta ry in attend :ll1ce. Not so immediately impress ive but no less important have been the special devotions in every parish church, at every shrine, in every chapel across the face of Ch ristendom. Perh aps most important o f all in the esteem of O ur Blessed Lady has been the obvio us welling up of love for her from the recesses of individua l hearts. From Beth lehem unt il now, Christians have const<lnrly med itated on the person and role of Mary in the divine economy of m,tn's redemption. From this m editat ion have come m any profound insights into the trut hs so
sim p ly stated in the Scriptures. The beautiful titles o f Our Lady in the Litany of Loretto, in the prayers and devotions sanctioned by the centuries .tr..: expressions o f these truths. Since 'the Word was m ade fl esh and dwelt amongst us', then of course Mary must be the Mother of G od, the Mother of the Redeem er, the Mother of Divine Grace. Since she is the Mo ther of G od , then of course she is rhe Mirror o f J ust ice, the Seat of W isdom , the Cause o f our J oy. Since she is 'full o f grace and blessed among wom en', then o f course she is Virgin n:ost p rud ent, V irgin most ve nerable, Virg in most kind . lr is reported that the Queenship of Our Lady will be the next old truth ~o lx: so lemn ly defi ned as an approp r iate close to the M ar.ian Year. It will [;~ :t m:Js t fitti ng culmination ro a year of extraordinary devotion. In the w.:kc of extraord inary devotio n there always has been and we m ay expect 1here always wi ll be extraordinary grace. It m ay be that in our life time w:: may see peace with just ice under C hr ist Our King and M ary Our Queen.

Historic Newport Boasts War Relics, Mansions; Now City of Contrasts To a casual rourist, Newport connotes a summer playground of tennis matches, beach parties and "fabulous" parties. To us, Newport, harbor for our college, is the stage for some of the happy memories which will bind for life our academic activities. Do we really know our rown? Within its cozy streets and magnificent mansions a great heritage is stored. Trinity Church on Spring Street was once honored by the presence of our first president. The Vernon homestead, once headquarters of General Rochambeau, cradled plans for our Revolution. Touro Synagogue not only is the oldest house of Jewish worship in America, bur also is a model of early colonial architecture. If you had been a local deb in 1780 no doubt you would have waltzed in the ballroom of John Wanton, a merchant whose daughter Polly bewitched the French fleer's officers during their visit that year. Built in 1675, his home still survives as the oldest in Newport. Now the adjoining Safety Cab stand adds a quaint flavor of modernism. Many of the shops along Thames Street still bear plaques such as that telling the original sire of the Naval Academy.
"A violet by a mossy stone"rhis is Newporr. A violet with subtle charm in her weathered wooden cottages; a violet with the regal coloring of a lost grandeur; a violet with the wisdom of her simplicity next to the mossy depths of blue ocean .... a "belle fleure" ro add joy to our college days.
Sister Team Participates In Gay Broadway Musical Talent, beauty and brains are the combination found in two of our Newport D ay- hops, namely Sheila and Moira McEnness. Sheila was chosen to represent this fair city as Miss Newport in the Miss Rhode Island Contest, held in June of this summer. In the talent division of the contest she placed first with a ballet dance from Swan Lake. Just recently both sisters took part in the Broadway Production of Finian's Rainbow given at the Newport Casino. Mo ira was a member of the singing and dancing chorus and Sheila, who had the dancing lead in the play, played the part of Susan, a deaf and dumb girl, who had to dance our her thoughts.
Stuffed Dogs, First Grade Tears Concern Senior Student Teachers "Please, say it looks like a dog! " pleaded Joanne Carney. The object of her concern appeared to be a red and white checked dog, stuffed with kleenex, and sporting one black eye and one large floppy ear. After being assured by her roommates that when her project got older it would probably make a very fine dog, Joanne continued with the remainder of her lesson plan for the seventh and eighth grade home economics students at John Clarke School. Together with nine other seniors, Joanne began her student reacher program in the Newport schools immediately after Labor Day. Mary Nagle shares Joanne's home economics problems in the same building but a different school-Mumford Junior High. Her work must keep her looking young; she was mistaken for an eighth grader recently! The eight elementary teachers seem to have the most gratifying work of all. "We missed you, Miss
Barry!" w:1s the general cry from Trudy's kindergarten class at Cranston-Calvert after she had been ill a day. Her fan club has already started. At Sheffield School, Mary Casey and Estelle Daglis instruct the evermoving second graders. "Mrs. Casey, how many days has September?" It's hard to think fast when confronted with thirty squirming seven year-olds! However, tradition still holds true at Sheffield-Berry Brown received the reddest, shiniest apple of the season from her admiring first grade. Our at Tonomy School, Arlene Sullivan and Evelyn Burns wipe the tears, mend the knees, and gu ide the hands of the first grade; while Anna Fingliss handles the everpresent problems, the reading, rollick ing, and rubbers of the veteran second grade. Alicia Donahue, too, entered Tonomy School at the same rime as her first grade; both are reported to be progressing nicely.
'Week of Weeks!' Moan Limp Frosh After Initiation; But We Had Fun
Frosh Elect Chairman . Frances Monaghan became : hairman pro-tem of the class J f '58 at an election held on September thirtieth. Among the duties of her Jffice she will assume charge Jf the freshman variety show on o~tober twenty-eight, will conduct meetings, and will represent her classmates on student council. Although a resident of Wellesley, Mass., "Franny" graduated from Mr. Alvernia Academy in Chestnut Hill, Newton, Mass. Education and mathematics are at present foremost in Miss Monaghan's plans concerning specialization at Salve Regina.
Jun ior Attends Governor's Meeting Miss Joan Langhorn, representative from Salve Regina, will participate in the Fourth Annual Governor's Conference in Providence on October twenty-eight. Governor Roberts will officially open the conference which will be held at the Veterans Memorial Auditorium. A principal speaker, whose identity has not yet been released, will then deliver a twenty-five minme address. At the conclusion of his talk, the panel group, consisting of a chairman and four principals (two of whom will represent the youth of the state) will be introduced. In accordance with the general theme of the meeting, the discussion group will treat of the mental health of our children and youth. Preventive measures and the development of measures and methods for the improvement of the mental health of youngsters will comprise the greater part of the subject matter. Speakers will accept questions on the four phases of discussion.
Freshmen week started with a bang! Junior tea, faculty reception, bur what 'rook the cake' as far as we were concerned was our initiation by the Sophomores. Rules were posted on the bulletin board. "Wear skirts upside clown , blouses inside our and backwards from 12 p.m. and awaken all sophomores at 6: 30 a. m." That left us with only one idea : Why wait till that hour? Twelve of us decided we would awaken early, very early. So at four-forty-five a. m. several frightened, determined freshmen scampered over to Mercy Hall. Scaring the Sophs out of their wits (and beds!) was our way of revenge. We certainly succeeded when we tiptoed into the dorm and suddenly routed them from peaceful repose. Good start! (For us, that is.) Later in the day a group of us wondered why drivers of passing cars stopped to stare. We soon found our-one frosh was having trouble with a hanging petticoat! To climax the day of days, we were summoned before a board of inquiry. Background, music, voices .. . all were "Dragnet-style". All , that is except the solemn faces of the class of '57! (Any of us would have found an encounter with Joe Friday much more enjoyable.) Our "forfeits for freedom" included pantomines, singing, dancing and poetic recitation. Highlighting the evening's activities, Winifred Papa was crowned "Miss Freshman". Her prize, Herman, is now our beloved mascot. Yes, Freshmen week will long be remembered by the Class of '58.

Citing St. Thomas More as the typical example of perfect moral balance, Father Collins urged his audience of young women to emulate ardently his common sense, his humility, and his charity. Urging them to seek erudition, he placed one qualification upon such an exhortation, and that, to do so wirh a firm and unwavering set of values, and htunbly, nor aping men, a fault common in the world today.
