event of the .week, afforded the Juniors anopportunity to introduce their families andfriends to the President and members ofthe faculty, and show . them the variousbuildings and facilities of the College.During the afternoon of socializing, re-freshments were served in the quadrangleand entertainment was provided by mem-bers of the College Glee Club.

United States' MORAL GUILT

IRC Views on the News

Raymond F. llroganMany peop le remember the glorious day

in May, 1945 when the terror of Europegasped its last breath and rolled over indeath. What a grand and glorious dayit was when the beast of Berlin finallycried "Kaput." In Europe people dancedin the streets , and in the l'nited Statesthe people nodded knowing l y and told eachother tliey had told each other long agothat we would win.

Where is all that joy, where the know-ing nods today ? Maybe the joy is dimin-ished somewhat, but the same knowingpeople are saying that we will win again.But what is thc reason for this gloom thathas settled on us? The Russians areroaming through the world like mad dogs.They have inf i l t ra ted into every phase ofour dail y lives. They stow away on boats ,tbey insult our congressmen, they call ourculture decadent , and tbey get sent to ourcolleges on Federal scholarships , and thatis precisely where the rub comes in.

When we finally buried the monster ofEurope we thought the world was free.People could live and be happy and makeup for all the heartaches of the war years.When the t inted glasses came off we foundas grea t a danger lo our , l iberty and wayof life as Hitler was. Overnight our alliesbecame our frigid foes. People bewailedtheir lack of , knowledge concerning thetrue character of the Communists. Theydamn tho * Cohiinimisls for dup ing; them ,when it is really their Own bigotry , hale ,and stubbornness tha t made them blindto the fads . Pope Leo XI I I warned theworld of the dangers of Atheistic Com-munism in his Encyclical. But they passedit off as Pap ish humbug and many Catholicspassed it off as being just another En-cyclical.

In 1917 nt Fatima in Portugal the BlessedLad y made known the way to defeat Com-

munism. This met wi th th e same responseand even today her method is consideredtoo troublesome h y loo many Catholics,and as childish superstition hy the worldin general. We prefer our own methods.

Let us look at what we have to fi ghtCommunism with. On the Internationallevel , we bave th c I LN. Was it not theU.N. in San . Francisco wliich , when thefirst step toward world peace was taken ,surrendered the cul tural heritag e of thosenat ions which profess belief in God , bylett ing Russia, the non-beli eving nation ,have its way regarding thc opening ofsessions with a prayer .

Since the l' nited Stales probably has asmuch weight in world affairs as any olhernation in the world we could bave donemuch to make the U.N. a wort h whileorganization. Instead we have let Russiabul ly us in every way. We could startnow even afler all t he failures , but it ishardl y likel y that we will. We won 't , be-cause you can 't bui ld a stone castle on asand hi l l , and it cannot be considered asprobable tha t we can huihl a morall y soundin te rna t iona l i n s t i t u t i o n when wc us anation are as immoral as any country inthe world. Before the war onl y Russia 'sdivorce rale was h igher lhan ours andBussiu was t ak ing steps to lower hers.We raise a fuss about teachers touc hingCommunism but never n word is printedin ibe secular papers concerning teachersespousing birth-control .

We can stop worry ing about Commun-ism when w e stop confusing free speechwith license to rouse un th ink ing niohswhen we stop confusing academic freedomwith license to tear down public , and pri-vate morals , when we learn ihe lesson ofhistory and slop depending on man andturn to Cod.

Liberal EducationFor Law Career

oLatvuer sQdvided:

Concluding the year's professional Lec-ture Series sponsored by the junior class,Dr. Elden S. Magaw, assistant dean ofTemple Law School , spoke before membersof the student body, Friday, May 13.

Surveying the general picture in thelegal field today. Dr. Magaw admittedthat there was-'an overcrowding in the lawschools but that the standards for admis-sions had not been decreased. He wenton- to mention that the minimum require-ments for entrance in most states set upby the American Bar Association, is thecompletion of two academic years in anapproved college or university. However ,he pointed out that the State of Pennsyl-vania requires four complete years. Inspecial cases veterans"'with two-years ofCollege may be admitted , however.

Liberal Education NeededAnother requisite is that one-half of the

applicant 's studies in college be those ofa cultural nature , such as history, logic ,and philosophy. In this respect Dr. Magawcited the liberal curriculum of St. Joseph'sas more than adequate to meet this re-quirement. -

"Lawyers should be trained ," he said ,".to solve national , local and even worldproblems." Oriented thus , the law courseswhich require individual thought are themost important , pointing up the necessityof a preparation in logic and philosophy.

Those contemplating a legal career aremissing the point entirel y if they are merelyinterested in the money to he. earned. Theessential motivation should be service fromwhich real happiness flows , he said.

Number of Lawyers IncreasingAccurate statistics on the legal profes-

sion are now being formulated and should"be"completed next year. The only figuresavailable are those from the .1940 censusat which time there are 180,000 lawyersand judges practicing in the U. S., as com-pared to 140,000 clergymen , 200,000 doc-tors and 1,760,000 teachers. It is esti-mated that there will be about 200,000lawyers by next year. Tbe average incomefor the lawyer in 1941 was §4794 afterbusiness expenses of around $1300 weresubtracted.

Dr. Magaw believes that there will bea vast field . in taxation for lawyers toexplore in the future and indicated thatmany with degrees in law will find occu-pational opportunities in many olher fieldsrather than in direct law practice. Hestated that the combination in demand to-day is dial of accountant-lawyer. Oppor-tunities in this respect are wide iri thegovernment , specificall y, the Treasury De-partment , the Etejiartment of the Interior ,and the F.B.I. XJ

Asked what course one should take inpreparing fo?* Law ¦ School , Dr. Magaw re-plied that one should take the courserecommen ded by his school (at St. Joseph' s,the Political Science Course I but that heshould try lo gel as much logic , philosophy,and economics as possible.

Despite the overcrowding today in LawSchools, Dr. Magaw said tha t there hasalready been observed a tapering off ofenrollment and expressed the belief that1950 will be "the last of the heavy enroll-ment years ,

ST. JOE RETAINS MIDDLE ATLANTIC CROWNScheunemann's 9 Points Pace Hawks toSecond Straight Title; Foley, KelleyRetain Individual Championships

by DAVE MACNAMARA

The St. Joseph's College track team outran and outinaneuvered 18 otherMiddle Atlantic colleges to capture the 37th Annual Middle Atlantic Trackand Field Championship for the second consecutive year last Saturday after-noon up at Memorial Stadium , Gettysburg, Pa. The winning Hawks amassed29 3-7 points , 12-7 points more than secondplacing Lafayette's 28 1-7. Swarthmore wasthird with 21 1-7; F&M was fourth with20 4-7. followed by La Salle 18, Muhlen-berg 16 and Haverford with 15.

Six Score AllSt. Joseph's strategicall y placed seven

men in onl y six of the' fifteen events toretain the title. Captain Bob Scheunc-mann captured tbe hi gh jump with a 6'effort , placed third in the high hurdles,and fifth in- the broad jump to lead theteam with 9 individual points. Tom Foleyretained his 220 low hurdle championshipwhen he zoomed to a 0:25.2 finish. Foleyalso placed fourth in the high hurdles.

The one-two finish of the St. Joseph'sdistanceraen, defending two mile titleholder , John Kelley, and sophomoreTom Duff y accounted for nine pointsand was the deciding factor in the Crim-gray. -victory. Kelley, who established anew college record when he won the eventlast year , not only ret-ainecl his title , butlowered his own record with a stunning9:52.2. Tom Duff y -.finished at Kelley'selbow and also bettered Kelley's last year 'srecord time.

Corey Comes ThroughSprinter Jerry Roohey was awarded third

place in a photo-finish 10 "flat century run.Sophomore Tom Fannin tied for . fourthplace in the high jump and picked up ahalf point.

The best college mile time for a St.Joseph's runner in recent years was sur-prisingl y produced by the ace 880 special-ist , Frank Corey, who had failed to qualif yin Friday's trials. Corey was clocked in4:31 to place a valuable fifth in a bril-liant 4:24.5 mile turned in by Haverford'ssensational double winner Jim Grosholz.Grosholz also retained his 880 title witha smooth 1:56.6.

Cinder DustFrank Corey suffered a big disappointment

during Friday's trials in the 880. Hoping tpgive Grosholz a battle on Saturday, Corey wascontenting himself with a third place in thetrials , when he was surprised in the last fewyards by Bill Murray, of Juniata. Frank wasreally crushed by this inadvertent elimination,but he begged Coach Bertelsman to allow himto run the mile on Saturday. Despite the factthat he had never run this distance in com-petition before Corey blazed home in 4:31.the best time ever recorded by a Crimgraymiler since 1D24 . . . Tom Foley had lost outby inches last year in the low hurdles, but thespeedy Junior had room to spare with his win-ning 0:25.2 . . . Jerry Rooney ran his besthundred of the season, a split second off Binder's10 flat finish . . . Schuenemann was more proudpf his beatit>g out Foley in the- high hurdlesthan he was over his high jump championship. . . The two-mile finish had the fans all agog.Kelley and Duffy had lapped most of the fieldby the time they came in. to finish. Thc verymodest Kelley had been running sccond toDuffy during most of the year , but Kel's thekind of runner who likes to win the importantones. But he gives Duffy all the credit forpushing him to a new college record . . . Badluck hampered some of the boys. Stratton andGavin just weren't feeling up to par. Tynenran well in some fast 100 heats . . . Mr. Berlels-man's sneaping Corey in thc mile run probablysaved thc day for thc Crimgray cause . . . B yhis clever placing of the right men in the rightevent at the ' right time, Mr. Bertelsman hasbrought four successive Middle Atlantic titleshome to St. Joseph's, two in cross-country andtwo in track.

Hard fought dow n to the final events ,the broad jump and the discus throw , Jth eday was lost for the locals when thePirates' Andy Stanfield hit a winning lea.))of 21 ft. 6% in. to round out a tri plewin. The piston-pinned sprinter previouslyhad taken the 100 and 220 yard dashes.His teammate, Phil Thigpen , let the severalhundred spectators in on the fact that "hehad no trouble taking the 880 and mile,glancing over his shoulder in both races.

Giving his usually keen competitive best ,Bob Schuenemann carried the Crimson tovictory in both the high hurdles and thehigh jump, while placing in the low hurdlesand the broad jump for a total of 14points. Tom Foley added 8% points to alost cause which suffered its heaviest blowwhen the Hawks' previously dependabledistancers felt the sting of their opponents "heels in the mile as well as the two mileswhere Phil Stilwell ground out a smooth9:52.

The Hawks as a matter of fact lost allthe fljt t races although in the 440 and the880 some fancy "boxing" by several Seton':ians aided in the downfall of Bob Strattonand Frank Corey. . • .

The end of raucous Kenny Gym classics, another clean sweep of MiddleAtlantic Track and Cross-country honors, an offensive-minded but sometimesunlucky basketball team, a hard-hitting, winning baseball team, and the com-pletion of a dream Fieldhouse ; these are some of the events which highlightedthe year in sports on Hawk Hill.

Those who followed St. Joseph's sport-ing events at home and abroad this year,kept one eye on campus, southeast, wheretime was measured not by the Juliancalendar but by bricks and planks, nailsarid mortar, electrical conduits and boilers.September-was a steel frame, Decembera roof , March a lighting system and soon.

Meanwhile, George Bertel sman was per -forming his annual fall feat of developingan unbeaten cross-country team and cop-ping the MAC crown. The squad weathereda 9 meet card without incident , includinga one-sided victory over Navy. Soph AlErbrick led a parade of Hawk harriersin the conference finale. Our yearlingharriers won the MAC freshman title, JoeMcGonigal taking the individual title.

A. 8C M. AmbushAt the same timcj Bill Ferguson and

Johnny McMenamin were formulating acourt machine that "was to start the seasonwith a six-game winning skein, then expe-rienced a mid-season session of hard knocksand rally to finish with a 12-11 mark.

This year's quintet took its shellackings,to be sure, but they won enough of thehigh priority battles to make the seasonanything but disastrous. Paul Senesky's29 points was the weapon as Tennessee'sVols bowed in a harum-scarum Hall opener—perhaps the Hawk's finest game. TomFrein did the sniping one week later asthe nation 's second ranking five, the Okla-homa. Aggies, were ambushed 46-43 in ohe ofihe biggest upsets of the colleg iate season.

A heart-rending one point loss to Texasfollowed and paved the way for an unhappyholiday mood of which Western Kentucky,I'tah and City College of New York tookadvantage. The latter tilt was anothernear miss, but that didn 't bother the faith-ful "400" who entertained and cacophinizedbefore a capacity Madison Square Gardenthrong. '

La Salle LacingAfter splitting a two-game series with

Albright , the Crimson cannonaded RhodeIsland's Rams 91-71, breaking several Hallrecords in the process. St. John 's with its"McGuire Plan" won handily and withoutJack Welsh the City Liners were harshlytreated by La Salle, 78-41, Larry Foustbreaking a 34th St. individual mark with•>9 points. Rhode Island and Muhlenbergwon five and three point games on foreignhardwood and City College again slippedby. 68-65. . - .

¦

There was only one consolat ion in tbeone-point loss to Temple; Hawk playersand fans will never have to endure as{j rave a tragedy. The Owl's Johnny Bal-lots , who is typical of the "nicer guy"people always say things couldn 't happento , heaved a half-court game winning Uissit the buzzer.

Throughout this spring of catastrop hes.Fergie's whittled forces kept alive anamazing spirit which served them in goodMead in the final game against Penn asi hey survived a savage 76-72 feud. Senesk ydropped in 31 points to shatter a 51-year-old Palestra record. Paul totaled 483

points, or 21 a game, in a brilliant seasonwhich merited him a flock of "all" selec-tions. The kid never drew a deep breath.

Penn PoundedJack Ramsay climaxed a courageous ca-

reer against the Red and Blue, a fact well-remembered by the students wheri~ttheyrecently voted hirri "The Athlete of theYear." "Old Reliable" Hank Dudek wrotefinis to four years of valuable scoring andrebound work. Senior Joe Wesner con-tributed sparkling performances in "spot"work. McDermitt and Frein were- theirusual pesky selves .while tlie reserve workof Lister and Neifert showed promise forthe future. ._ • '"

The abandonment of indoor track forthis one year did not excuse George Ber-telsman's runners from mid-winter work -outs. As usual they were out dodgingsnowbanks and. puddles as early, as ground-hog day and "have retained their sectionof a crowded Finessey Field ever since.Practice paid off as men like Scheuncmann ,Straiten , Corey, Gavin , Rooney, Foley.Kelley, and Duff y were consistent tape-breakers throughout a five meet winningstreak which was ended when a strongSeton Hall , contingent skinned the Crim-clads by three points.

Track Title RepeatNaturally, the season's highli ght came

at Gettysburg when "Uncle George's"proteges grabbed off their second straightMAC title in competition with sixteenother eastern schools. This.victory meanta clean sweep of Middle Atlant ic' honorsin Track and Cross-country over a twoyear span and was a great personal triumphfor Mr. Bertelsman, a man ^yho shuns recog-nition as quickly as he produces winners.

Pep Young apparently had no intentionsof letting his cinder counterparts stealspring sports publ icity, for baseball , afterseeking winter haven in the Fieldhouse,officiall y took command April 9, and sincethat time the diamond dean has led hishustling charges to 10 wins in 14 games.Young finall y was ' granted the wish ofstrong armed flingers as Hank Dudek.Jack Ramsay and Tom Brown were allgoing the route behind the hardes t hit t ingsince baseball was returned four yearsago. Bob Poletti's extra-base wood-wield-ing paced a line-up of long ball hitterswhile defensive play perked up consider-abl y. Bobb y Did young was a pleasantsurprise at short.

Dudek's pitching and Poletti' s hitt ingwere responsible for the most pleasingvictory, a 13-4 verdict over Penn. Theveteran receiver picked Quaker pitchingfor one hit of every variety.

Coach Michael Boland's racquet-swing-ers led hy Taney Wilcox and Tom Phelanwent into their last three meets with a 7and 3 log'. The Hawk linksmen have splitin twelve meets with three to be played.

HAWK sports pages stressed intramuralsthroughout the year as campus athletesused more equipment and drew more bloodynoses than ever before.

The PressboxTells A Success . Story;Bids A Fond Farewell

by Dave MacNamara .—

— Skepticism has sunk its teeth so deepinto the fat hourhand of our times thateven the seemingly endless stream of Hora-tio Alger success stories doesn't make thepulp magazines anymore. Rags to richesstories are readily denied in the face offacts and even the possibility of overcom-ing handicap's is positively doubted hymany. Yet we don't have to pick up aCalifornia newspaper, nor wait for a newsrelease from Shangri-La to corroboratethe uncountable it-can 't-ba'ppen but-it-didstories. As a matter of fact we have justsuch a story right here at St. Joseph's.

We have the story of a little¦> baby who was stricken with polio

wHen he Was just eighteenmonths old. ft tells of how hismother took him religiously to anearby hospital for baths andmassage twice each week foreight years; of the limitless joy-that that mother experiencedwhen she found that her sonwould walk without a limp, ofher justifiable disappointmentwhen forced to accept the factthat her boy had lost for life thecomplete use of his left arm .

Later on the story tells of how thismother had to suffer the further - trial . ofnursing her son back to health again whenin the eighth grade he was struck downby rheumatic fever. The condition thatrheumatic fever leaves the human body inis absolutel y incompatible with necessaryactivity of the average American boy. Sowhen the mother of this congenitall y ener-getic I3d took him back to the doctor withthe report that he would not refrain fromsports despite the warning of the ° fatalresults, the doctor threw his iiandsnn theair with "if you insist on high jumpingand running you'll kill yourself in no time,so maybe tbe sooner you do the betterit will be for all of us."

Certainly those words were./ stern enough to take the wind

out of one's sail , but they onlyserved as an incentive to drivethis youngster to a point of per-fection that would prove that thebest medicine is positive, notnegative.

The hoy went to high school and becameso pro icient at the high jump, broad jump

and hurdles that hewas named captainof the track team.This led to a scholar-ship to St. Joseph'swhere in four shortyears he was to com-pile feats that willprobabl y jiever '"lieequalled.

The boy is no longera boy, he's a man now ,and what a man. Heis only 5' 11" tall

yet he high jumps 6' 2", broad jumps nearl y22 feet , and zooms over hurdles like an im-ported kangaroo.

Yes, Robert Scheuenemann leaves l i t t lelo he desired in a college track suit. Yelwith all his accomplishments . Boh didn 'treally feel that he had accomp lished any-th ing unt i l last week up al Get tysburg , l'a.

In the Middle Atlantic Cham-pionships, he not onl y scorednine points to practically win thc

.. meet single-handed, but he cap-tured the coveted high jumpchampionship. He completeshis fourth year as leading scorerof the track team when he walks

) away with his degree in BusinessAdministration on June 12.

Now you might th ink thai our story isover , hul really il is just beginning, be-cause Bob is about to challenge bis highesthurdle , life .

Homecoming Day Will IntroduceGraduating Seniors to Alumni

Are you coming to the June 9 Home-coming?? If you ' don't, you 'll be sorry.

The committee in charge, with Jim Cas-sidy as chairman , has prepared a programof events that will- be even better thanlast year and everyone had a wonderfultime then. ¦ '- .

Alumni-Senior ClashThe evening starts off with a softball

game at 6:30 p.m. The graduates (whonumber 230 this year) have challengedthe alunmi. The alumni trounced lastyear's graduates and they see no reasonwhy the feat can 't be duplicated this year.However, there are rumors that the gradu-ates are offering some heavy wagers ontheir ability to win.

It is true, there may be strength in thenumbers of the graduating class, but thealumni feels that it can bolster its strengthby the addition of the best of the Classof 1948 plus tlte return of such stellarathletes of yesteryear as little Willy Glo-wacz, '41; light and fast Vince Desmond,'29; that flash y pair from '23, George Clarkeand John Shea, and those all-round ath-letes, Joe Herring, '18, Eddie O'Reilly, '18.Gene White, '17, Tom Leis, '34 and CookieMcCusker, '35; will also be in the line-up.and are men to be reckoned with in anysoftball game.

Other Events ScheduledThere will be other events and prizes,

and a good show in the Quadrangle withJimmy O'Neill, M.D., '32, and Walt Miller ,'47, as Masters of Ceremonies.

The Fie?ldhouse -will be open for all thosewho want to go through it.

Our coaches, in short speeches, will giveus the "low down" and some tips on thefuture.

We start at 6:30 p.m. and go on intothe night. There will be plenty of sand-wiches and refreshments—all you want—and the cost is only $1.50.

room decorum in the annex the Faculty AllStars and Junior All Stars took to Fines-sey Field for their annual Junior Weeksoftball game, Thursday, May 12.

Unfortunatel y the official results mysteri -ously disappeared so the tabulations remaindoubtful until the official scorer completeshis series of shock treatments.

-Utilizing a.diamond instead of three ringsand a big top, the event was witnesse'dby five hundred unbiased fans who filledthe north end of the wooden stands. Roarsfrom the "spectators greeted their idols asthey drilled long balls over the under-graduate heads and made dazzling catchesand fireball throws to retire tbe '50-men.

Green OustedFacetious Bobby Green started on the

mound for the Juniors and gave way toBill Barry in the fifth after being ejectedfrom the game for disputing the umpire'sintegrity over an outside pitch.

Player-coach Mr. Lennon sent an assort-ment of hurlers against the opposition :Father Langman, Mr. Ruggieri and final ly,displaying no favoritism toward his fellow

faculty members, took the mound himselfin the last inning.

Wheaties for the WeakProceedings were halted on two occa-

sions to pay tribute to the ability of bothteams. Public address announcer TomHennessey, on behalf of the Class of '50awarded the Faculty squad a case of "thebreakfast of champions." Reciprocating ,the administration ten , aware of the brig ht ,hot sun, distributed vari-colored baby sun-bonnets to next year's seniors.

Your HAWK reporter , anxious to settlethe disputed final score, polled an ade-quate cross-section of the spectators andthey were of the opinion that the Juniorsnosed out the Faculty 23-22. But , cometo think of it , all those queried about thefinal score were seen re-pinning maroonand gray buttons ' on their lapels as weleft the stands.

In the track and field events conductedbefore the softball game, Jim McNall yswept the 60 yard dash and 100 yard heeland toe race. Bill Nice won the 60 yardhop while Paul McDermitt clinched thebaseball throw.
