After losing nme oI Its rir:t 11 games, the Universit ' of San Diego appeared to have hit its stride when it embarked on a three game ,,inning tr ak.

Baran said freshman Larry Moyer and junior Cravens would help out next year's club considerably. "Both men have a fine shoot• ing touch, and, if they work on defensive plays and build up their stamina during the off• . ea.son, Coach Phil Woopert should be able to use them in his building plans," said Baran. Team captain and play maker John Robbins played his final year at USD in the 1960-62 sea. son. He recei,•ed special praise from the coach. "Robbins could probably have played first string for any tpam on the coast," Baran said. '"The i-tatistic.-s he compiled were not as impressi\'e as they could han• been because his passing was simply too advanC' d for the rest of the club."' Mike Heminger ,a guard who played only one game but scored nine points, could have played first team all season, Baran said. Heminger aided the team in getting rebounds and in bol• stering the team's spirit. In reviewing the season, Bar· an commented especially on the first contest with Cal.Western University. "We were down by 16 points at half-time," said Baran, "and then we came roaring back to win by a point 11. But

Meanwhile, we would like to thn: lped to inaugurate this paper-facul admt ud nts and advertisers. The reception of the paper by the administration and faculty has been most heartening. We hope to retain their support in our future attempts. Professors have continued to show' a great interest in The News, mentioning it favorably in the classroom. And most of all , the students at USD have shown a great inter- est in the paper. Without the continued interest and help from the ad- ministration, faculty and students of USD, The News will expire. But we are sure that this will not happen. Next fall will see the start of a new and better year for USD and The News. We ask for your continued support and interest in making The News a success in the issues to come. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR EDITOR:

son, an intelligent, capable, and practical man, who is not above a little dishonesty to see the nominee confirmed; Seab Cool• ey, a conservative senator from South Carolina full of craft and cunning, equally determined in his wily roof-raising ways to see the nomine<' defeated; Brig. ham Anderson, a young up.and . coming prcsid<'ntial aspirant, who finds that a hidden seg- ment of his past is Pxposed to ruin his career; and Orrin Knox a cantankerous man of great integrity, who add the final touch to the unravelling drama. And son on it goes, this monu - mental machine called the U.S. government, carrying its coun• try's hopes ln "the kindly, plea• sant, greening land about to lParn whether history still had a place for a nation so strangely composed of great Ideals and unea~y compromise." MOVIES All Fall Down (John House• man; M-G-M). Take one Eva Marie Saint, one Warren Beat• ly, one Karl Malden, one An- gela Lansbury, one Brandon de Wilde, give them a producer like John Houseman, a script by William Inge from a best• selling novel by James Leo Her• llhy, put them together on an M•G·M lot, and what emerges should be exciting, first-rate drama with a punch. What should, and what docs eventually emerge is two very different things. What could have been an intense, probing analysis of a frustrated, bleed• ing American family, turns out to be a casual peek, and equal• ly casual excursion, into sheer boredom. What could have been a serious American film, a pie• ture in the tradition of France's New Wave film movement, is in the end a half.hearted, feeb• le attempt at art, and an over- whelming successful attempt at commercialism. Just because the film was .,shot in black and white does not make it art. The . film is generally faith- ful to the Herlihy novel, al• though the Inge script plays up lhe debauchery but none of the humor of the book. It tells the story of the Willard family: Pa- pa (Malden) drinks; Mama (Lansbury) is overly, overly• protective with her two sons, es- pecially Berl- beri, (Beatty) ; son Clinton (De Wilde) and family friend, Echo (Miss Saint) , have one thing in common with the rest: they all fall down in lov• ing adoration to Beri• beri. At film's end, Echo commits suicide; Mama is still overly- protective: Clinton no longer hero-worships Beri-beri; and Beri•beri.? Well, he continues to abuse women cruelly, as he has been doing for the past two hours. The film itself is pure balon• ey, and not even the better kind of baloney which is served up as "adult entertainment." Ac· tor Bea.tty acts up a storm of hot air by looking disgusted with the whole thing; Miss Saint, surely a better actress than this, should return to Is- rael and "Exodus;'' producer Houseman should return to tele- vision and resurrect Playhouse 90; and scenarist Inge should either start writing "Return to Splendor in the Grass" or go back to New York. Actors Ma· den, De Wilde, and Miss La bury should vow never to ma e another film.

began with an excel• Iently portrayed scene depicting the abondonment of a child by David Hinajosa and introduced the ensuing comical scenes with the appearance of the bear, Paul Majkut. After a brief interlude by the verse•speaking choir, the main body of the play followed . The familiar face of Joe Gil• lon as the sheptierd opened the festivities, and a humorous, al• most slap-stick encounterence, of the Clown and Autolycus created spontaneous laughter in a delightfully receptive audi- ence. The melodramatic balcony incident between Camillo, Roger Row, and Polixenes, Dennis Adams, although lacking sob• riety, restored the action to ser• iousness, if only for a short time. The play progressed slowly until the court scene of King Leontes, played ironically, by Bill Fitzgerald. In this scene, the audience realized their in- vei;tment in the excellent ability of Susan Fernandez, who was displayed in the type-cast part of Paulina. 'the closing present- ed a tableau of all centered on the small but ui;iifying part of Hermione. lhe Queen of Leontes, aptly p1a ed by Susie Farrell. The t>roduction was spiced throughol.it with the singing of Shaele Flaherty and a quartet of madrigal singers. Fill-in parts ranged from a collie dog to Bev• erlee Cendali (who would rather die than $pell her name with a Hyll), The organization exeprienced some difficulty in getting off the ground, and one of the longer though unimportant parts of a Jover was supplied by Chuck Donnelly. May we look forward to next year's Romeo and Juliet with as much anticipation? ADVISE & CONSENT "The pending business is the nomination of Robert A. Leffing• well to Secretary of State.

In an authentic portrait of Capitol Hill and Washington SO· cial life, Drury has peered through the smoke-filled com• mittee rooms and exposed the bitter conflicts of the Senate. Here, he has probed in fascina• ting, though wordy detail, the minds of the statesmen, the old· timers, the "opportunists and idealists." Despite any political dirt injected in his novel, how• ever, he always leaves an aura of forgiveness for these men- some honest, some scrupulous, some competent, some sinister- all brought together in one e, under one flag and God, for the most part dedicated mething called freedom and f! rights of man. he novel is set in some in- te post-Eisenhower per• d yet the president must .

COMMENT By John Wickersham

Mike McDonnell

It has b!'en said that your's is a dying world. You are wit• npsses of the expiration of the noblest civil society in the his• tory of man, the American Re• public. It is tragic, because it need not be. You graduates possess the key. Your Catholic education virtull.IIY contains the salvation of our llapsing cul• ture. The time o contempla- tion is past; you must u anslatc your knowledge Into action. These years are called por• tentous and foreboding. You live in mortal fear of the enemy, and, with pitiful desperation, commend your survival to the state. There is no answer forth- coming, no chang . 0111Jy grow- ing confusion. Bomb and miss• les offer no permanent security, nor can alliances, treaties, diplo• mats, sPttlements, bluffs. The peace which you seek comes from a vital, militant f::ilth, which is found only in th heart of man. As Catholic university gradu- ates, you must be cruclati, cross• bearers. You must rekindle the apostolic flame, and re•estab• lish the age of faith. Follow the example of your heroic ances- tors, Godfrey, Adhemar, and Tancred; lead all Christian men again on a great crusade. Be Jerusalemites; accept no• thing but the certain and true path. Yours is no greater strug· gle than was theirs, and the price is Jess. They fought across thousands of miles of unknown and hostile land. They died in the dust of Doryleum and be• fore the walls of Antioch, be• cause it was the Will of God . Your's is the same task. Live the Faith. The time is short, and you will receive but one chance. It is not a matter of taste, nor convenience. When the hordes of Islam were spill• ing over the Pyrenees and storming the portals of Con• stantinople, the medieval man did not hesitate. He bartered his whole life for a red cross on his tunic, and with singular re• solve set to the deliverance of the Lord's City from the Infidel. You, 1 too, are gentlemen war• riors, but the citadel that you must liberate is the nature of man, enslaved and degraded. Abandon all things and take the cross, for there will be nothing once the enemy is within the walls. You are the pi,r:ked and trained young men of the Cath- olic community. You are both rivileged and obligated; do not c;ully the privilege, nor addicate the r sponsibility of your Cath• -01ic faith.

Editor: We understand that the offi• cials of USD have decided to eliminate Senior Week. We feel that this is an injustice to those graduating. The graduates have worked hard for their education and they deserve the privileges granted most seniors throughout the country. Senior Week should have been canceled at the be- ginning of the year, or it should go through as planned this year and canceled next year. The administration sh o u I d go through with its plans In or• der to be fair to all concerned. Interested Students Editor: I have just received a copy of your first edition of The News from a good friend of mine in your College for Women. As the former editor-in-chief of the student newspaper here at the University of Santa Clara, I would like to take this oppor• tunity to congratulate you and your staff for a job well done. I see from the article on page one that you are a senior. I think that you will be able to graduate with the knowledge that you have made a definite contribution to your University. A student newspaper is a very necessary and integral part of any college or university and any school that does not have one is definitely lacking some• thing. But I think that you have now given your school a means of publishing student opinions and controversy as well as stu- dent news. In additinn to this, a really student newspaper is the best means of public rela• tions that any school can have because it truly mirrors the type of students who attend that school. So congratulations once again to you, and here's hoping that you get the cooperation you asked for in your editorial. I will be looking forward to your next "fortknightly" (sic p. 2 staff box) newspaper and also to a basketball contest between USD and "nationally.ranked" Santa Clara. Best Regards, Paul Caro

Congratulations! I take pen in paw lo praise your laudable en- deavor of May 4 and pray that you continue your fine work in the future. t is about time that the tude at USD find out what's go~fOn NOW-not three weeks from now. I will be look• ing forward to your next edition and those following with inter• est. LA~EHT (Editor's Note-We pause to ponder the possibility that may- be lions and other animals do write. If so, we would appreciate a letter from Huey, Louie and Duey, or even .from Yogi, Mickey or Clarabell. Thank you, Lam• bert.) Editor: In your last issue you devoted a good percentage of the back page to the varsity baseball team. It is too bad your ap- proach had to be derogatory. I would like to discuss the two articles In question and attempt to answer the charges. First of all, there was the picture of the team with the caption underneath, "Because of the season record, members of the team wish to remain anony- mous." This was an outright lie. Our record was 12 wins, 10 loss• es and one ti.e, which is far bet• ter than our other varsity teams Second, there was the article by Mr. Juliano. In my opinion, the story was adequately done, but there ls a little more to it than just that. I don't believe I saw Mr. Juliano at one game this year. Therefore, his facts are hearsay. One complaint he had was that the administration didn't schedule name colleges (USC, UCLA, Santa Clara, etc.) to lose. Three of the name col• leges we lost to were ranked in the top ten in the nation. USC is defending national champion. We lost to USC, 3-9, UCLA, 2-6 and Santa Clara, 3-4. Can you imagine what would have resulted had we played USC or UCLA in football and basketball. Let's be truthful; the baseball diamond is the on• ly place in the world where we can compete with these schools. ·ncerely, Terry Lorenz
