"It's good to be back," commented Mother Barbara, who is presently Superior and Academic Dean. !Mother returns to Radnor from Mother Cabrini High School m New York City where she was Superior and also a religion and an English teacher . She summed up her feelings aibout Cabrini when she stated, "I've seen a tremendous growth, and I am very happy to be here once again."

Sister Andrew, Dean of Students, comes to Radnor from Rome.

Here at Cabrini she teaches Western Civilization and U.S. History . "The spirit is marvelous, the campus is lovely," she

commented, ''Ca'brini is ideal."

Sister Ignatius comes to the college from Seattle, Washington, where she was an admitting officer at Mother Cabrini Hospital.

She is filling the position as acting bursar. "I graduated a year ago June a,fter being a student here for eight months. I'm very glad to be back."

Cabrinian Theory Stated

by Rose B. Green In its latest publication, Cabrini College has stated its interpretation of the educational objectives of the foundress, both of the sponsoring order, The Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and the college now about to celebrate its tenth anniversary. The pamphlet, entitled The Cabrinian Philosophy of Education, is authored by Dr. Rose B Green chairman of the Department of E'nglish.

Milan, Italy To Mother Ursula The famous author Kahil Gibran wrote in his book The Prophet, "For that which you love mos,t in him may be clearer in his absence as the mountain to the climoor is clearer from the plain."

We think, Mother, that this is much the way we feel about your departure. The swiftness of it, however, has left much unsaid, but in the 1,hort time since you've been gone, we've been given an opportunity to reflect on the real impact you had on us and our school.

For the last ten years, Mother, you have performed a job which we feel no one else could have done. You have taken a few buildings, a group of instructors, and a handful of students and molded them into a liberal arts college for women which has gained great respect in the field of education.

But it is much more than these simple facts, Mother. For we, as your students, have seen the personal touch which you added to your years as Dean and President. Students, both of the past and present, have }mown that you took a personal interest in each and every girl.

Your schedule was never too busy to sit down and discuss the academic problems of one of your students.

Many a girl walked into your office upset, only to come out more confident because she realized that you had faith in her. All you ever asked was that each and every one try her best, and in so doing, you assured her that she would succeed. Many a girl has seen her problems through because of your faith and trust.

You touched other areas .of our lives too, Mother, and for these things we shall also miss you. Your attendance and interest in the basketball games was deeply appreciated by the team. Your pride in the Glee Club, Cast and Script, and for that matter, all campus clubs, was also appreciated. And somehow, Mother, the girls in the Mansion don't think the "Advent Angel" will be the same without you here.

Thank you is a very small phrase, Mother, but it is all we can say. Thank you for all you've given us and all you've meant to us.

We give you our best wishes, Mother, and assurance of prayers and our promise that we will try to instill in future Cabrini students the love of our school and its traditions, all of which you have taught us.

Fondly, Your Girls

And Beginni.ng Anew As Mother Barbara assumes her new duties as Dean and Acting President, the students, faculty, and staff of Cabrini College wish to extend to her best wishes for a happy and successful stay and assure her of our support and cooperation in the future.

Each freshman at Cabrini received a copy Oif the pamphlet during Orientation Week, and the reviewed contents of the work are under discussion in the classes in English Composition .

It is hoped that the students will achieve some degree of self anal ysis and, also, may be encourag ed to participate in the open discussion of ideas sugges ted by the reading programs of thei r courses.

Mrs. Marjorie Johnson, Librarian, named the lack of background periodicals ,and the lack of equipment in the curriculum library as factors contributing to the need.

Due to the grant, the need for background periodicals has been greatly minimized.

Over half of the Federal funds went for the purchase of microfilm.

New equipment has been added which will enable students to copy a page from the back periodical. !Mrs. Johnson feels that the grant has been a "giant step" toward the future of the library because it has made possible many things which could not have been justilfied out of the regular budget.

Ah, there's the problem! One hundred students do sign their names to lists. The rules specify: make your own teams, six to a side , and dates and times will be posted on Wednesday . So comes Thursday and four of your tfighting six don't show up .

Can 't you realize they have a lbig psych test tomorrow, they had to go into Wayne for laundry detergent, or they're too tired to move.

Students are extending a friendly welcome mat to Miss Jacqueline Roddy, our new administrative assistant • •• Dog may be man's best friend but not in the case of Suzie Cichelli who seems to be doing her share of snarling aJ Casey. . • Thanks to the Radnor Fire Department for its quick action and bravery above and beyond the call of duty . •• Three cheers are being given by the Cabrini traditionalists for the decision to retain the Cabrini ring. , .

'Moved To New Location' will read the sign above the old offices

Team Hopes RemainHigh tFor the first time in Cabrini's history, the hockey team has enough players to make up more than a full team of eleven girls.

In ,past :years things were so bad that, on da ys of scr immages, Coach Mrs. Goodwin had to recruit girls as late as half an hour before a game. Few or none of the girls had had any experience ·before "making " the Cabrini "varsity ."

Now that things are looking up, it's to be wondered how well the team can function. iFor instance, will they win any games? Last year Terry Warner had the distinction of scoring the first goal in Cabrini history. Cabrini has never won a game . Last year our girls came in close in a scoreless tie in a scrimmage with Ea stern Baptist. Like the N .Y. Mets, "we got no place to go but up.''

Who will be the first to fall to a revitalized Cabrini squad?

There's Immaculata College on October 11, East ern Baptist on the 19th, St. Katherine's High School on October 23, and Gwynedd-lMercy College on the 26th.

Only the St. Katherine's game is at home.
