Philadelphia's Mayor Dilworth called on college

students last week to aid in the fig^t against juve-nile delinquency.

The hard fighting Mayor Uamed mudi of themodem teenage trouble on citizens who are unwill-

ing to take the time or the reqK>nsibility for help-

ing wayward children. Those who sit bade and sug-gest whipping posts and other tortures for juvenile

offenders are merely adding harshness to an alreadyoverjoaded pile of grievances.

Dilworth suggested that coDê students lookaround their own neighboriiood for the underprivi-leged and neglected. They are the ones most likely

to fall into trouble. s - 1 <

College stodents can talk to these and perhapsset some sort of positive example. Certainly theswearing, bragging youth at the playground vôignores childron standing by when he enumerateshis catalogue of sins is a prime cause in the delin-

quency proUem. Too often children admire the kindof college students better never seen.

boring boy and take them out for an afternoon's

fun. Tiy it some day. It certainly won't hurt

JUNIOR EVENTS^ RUN SMOOTHLYTo the Editors:

Cbngratulatkms on yourfine Junior Week paper. I

would like to use the VILLA-NOVAN to express public

thanks to a wonderful groupof class officers who plannedthe week's affairs.

Most events, under thesmooth handling of class

president Vic Lndmerer, turn-

ed out well. The large size

of the class, surprisingly

enough, did not militate

against real enjoyment. Thisjrear's class proved that evensix or seven hundred couplescan have a successful dinnerdance and prom.

We're Both HonoredWe're happy this week to announce that John C. Cal-

pin, noted political columnist for the Philadelphia Even-ing Bulletin, will be the recipient of the third annual St.Augustine Award.

Tho VILLANOVAN presents this award annually toa person of honesty and integrity in the communicationsfield.

It is not easy to be a political writer, especially onthe municipal level. There are pressures from all candi-dates and parties, each one insisting on seeing their namesin type. It requires a man of endless patience and dedi-cation to maintain noimality during some trying electionperiods.

Such a man is John Calpin. WeVe known him andwatched him work now for several years. Even on hecticelection nights does John keep his cofposure. He is atine newspapeiman.

That's why we're pi*oud to have John C. Calpin as ourSt. Augustine Award winnei'.—L. M. O'R.

Ars Gratia VillanovaBy iOB MMTO

The graduating Benlors will go forth into this br»ve newatomic world with a smattering of culture because of it.

They will be able to hold their heads high now for havingscMin it. What ia itt That is what many asked when they sawit; it was the art show.

The art show was announced as the first annual, and wehope that what is implied by that is carried through. Theamazing thing about this cultural touch is that it had manycontributors, and that a lot of students (out of the numberwho know where the library is) have taken notice and com-mented ov( the show. There has been a good deal of criticism

about the places given to certain works. The judges havebeen called quadrupeds of several orders by frustrated VanGogh-s, but good or bad, understand or not, the art show hasgiven us a little class.

Catholidi schools are usually wide open for criticism onthe culture angle. The claim is that our religion is restric-

tive and that this is manifest in our artistic development.With each new form through which our students can ex-

press themselves, we are raising the potential of the school.

It should be noticed that not one of the pictures had a reli-

gious theme. This is a clear sign that the show was not undertho persuasion of the faculty, as an objector might claim.

Shades of DmHThe abstracts caused the most comment of all the pic-

tures. There is a feeling among the viewers that they couldhave done just as well by having an epileptic fit in a paintfactory. This is likc| sayng you are as good as Mickey Mantlebecause you can catch line drives. If you have no idea of

what to look for, then your subjective criticism of a work asbad, when knowing judges have called it good, only reflects

the sparsity of your knowledge.To ask the worth of this type art, is to ask what good

are different colored clothes, or the varied styles of cars.

The worlii is in variety. We have a tendency to practicality

and usefulness, but we also have a liking for the individualis-

tic, for the unusual. And art is a unique interpretation whicha sensitive person gives to an ordinary object, sometimesmaking it different than the way in which toe see it.

Art is also an opportunity for some to create somethingcompletely new, only, slightly related to reality. They feel

that to create something new, with beauty and balance, is

one of the highest skills of man.Our art show may not have been this exactly, but it

was good for the artists as a vehicle of expression. If wegive it a chance, it may prove good for us.

Bids Farewell To Beloved Alma Mater

It's over. Four wonderful

years at the greatest univer-

sity in the world—at least to

my mind—are over. And there

is nothing we can do to bring

them back again.

Even those chronic com-plainers among us will have to

admit that it has been a goodfour years, full of the laught-

er and tears that go to makesuch wonderful memories at

those alumni reunions 25 years

hence.

. Yes, we have gotten an edu-

cation at Villanova— it hasmade better men of us, andwe can't help feeling that wehave helped to make it a lit-

tle better place too. We haveboth advanced in all phases

spiritual,* academic, social andphysical (at least, we both ex-

panded).A Few Griped

\Shore Life Among The Cabana Crowd:Blacks, Slacks Stretch Shorts Allowed

Within a few weeks a massexodus to that wonderlandknown as the shore will take

place. The object of this sum-mer sojourn, which occurs

mostly on weekends will be

to get a tan and make animpression on those two leg-

ged creatures who romparound the beach playing

hard to get. As boys will beboys and girls will be girls

—the boys will do some cha-

sing and the girls will con-

tiue to romp.

There is one sad thing that

may effect the boys interest

in girls (if that is possible),

and that is the advent of

that dreaded chemise into

giri's beachwear. Don't let it

scare you, men, the girl is

still inside that bathing suit,

she's just trying not to showtoo much proof.

Chemise Sacks *em

We have an idea that Villa-

nova men will end the sum-mer longing for the good old

days when girls were stacked

instead of sacked.

The sack, bag, chemise, or

whatever you call it may be

the big thing in female fa-

shion, but nothing like it ap-

pears in men's fashions. Thenews in that field is waahand wear, lightness and color,

witb an emphasis on all

three.

Everything is wash *n wear,

including some shoos. Suits,

slacks, jackets, and shirts

all can be dropped into a

maikine at night and be ready

to wear in the morning.

By TOM McKENNABlack is Back

Color abounds in everyitem of summer, ^wear this

year, vivid ones and pastels,

but an old standard is againmaking its appearance on thescene—black. Many suggestthat black or gray Bermudashorts be worn with the newwash 'n wear dinner jackets

as a summer formal. If no-thing else, it will increase

comment.

Besides the new pastels in

dinner jackets, sport coatsare also colorful along withaccompanying slacks. Thejackets will be available in

stripes, checks, and solids.

The most popular shades in

the slacks should be' tan,

olive, and charcoal, but suchshockers as vivid reds andKelly green will be in evi-

dence.

There is ono combinationof the above two that maybecome a uniform this sum-mer. The blazer that was sopopular in the '20's and 'SO's

is to be combined with light

weight white slacks, so may-be fashions are going back-wards altogether.

No Shori-Shorts

We doubt seriously thatany males will be wearingthe chemise on the beach, un-less they arc "very individu-

alistic." The bathing suit forthe man wU be a bit longer,

some coming down to the mid-calf. Cabana sets in Hawaiian

prints will be seen on the

more cavalier types, but the

majority will continue to fa-

vor the Terry cloth pull overswith piping matching theshort track shorts.

There are some sets thatwill feature the deep "V"cardigan sweater effect. Smallchecks and regimental stripes

will remain the most populardesigns with Indian madrasprints winning the secondplace in popularity.

There are some more itemsthat could be added, but let's

not all be conformists, showsome initiative and individu-

ality in how you dress this

summer and don't forget the

accessories. ,'':'' "'''' ''•'•'/• '''•''"

in the end we cooperated with

the Administration, and they

helped us in every possible wayto make things a little better

all around.

In all, we've seen a lot of

things happen in our shortstay at Villanova. The matterclosest to my heart has, of

course, always been the spirit

of the student body, and wecan say we did somethingabout that, all right.

The Class of 1958 read the

now infamous article in the

SATURDAY EVENING POST

and went out and proved that

it was all wrong. We leave Vil-

lanova with the reputation of

having one of the most spirit-

ed student bodies in the East.

Reputation to MaintainT(i those classes which fol-

low us, I leave one word of

advice. The Villanova reputa-

tion established in Boston, New

York and Philadelphia mustbe maintained here on the

Main Line.

Yes, the future spirit of Vil-

lanova is up to you underclass-

men. By working together with

the Administration, faculty

and the alumni, you can build

a greater Villanova.

As for the Class of '58, weare leaving Villanova with

mixed emotions. We are look-

ing forward to the future, con-

fident that the education wereceived here will enable us to

face most of the problems that

lie ahead.

The MemoriesHowever, we all are going

to miss the games, rallies and

social activities; and many of

us will even miss the lectures,

and that special girl (or girls)

from Rosemont, Immaculataand Chesnut Hill.

I am confident that we, the

Class of 1958, will do our part

in the alumni. It is up to youto do your part here at Villa-

nova.When the last big game is

over.

And when the last roll

call is heard.When the oldest pedagogueHas had his final wordWe (the Class of '58) shall

come to Alma MaterIn our dreams again,With a prayer for

Villanova,

And a sweet amen.

Just Wait Vil Next Year'"-'"-/'

By BILL CHRISTY

This year's elections are over. At least I think they are,

although one fellow handed me a collection ofi seventeen

cards tnis morning as I entered the Pie Shoppe.

The election period was considerably shortened this

time, presumably to save wear and tear on the elections com-mittee and our paper-littered campus green. CJampaigningused to last ten days, then it was reduced to a week. This

year it went down to three days. I understand that next yearelections will be held five minutes after nominations, so that

none will have any idea who they are voting for.

•'Aside from the shortened period for campaigns, there

were a number of other innovations this year. One sophomorefigured out a way to beat the system entirely. He entered

the polls five times dressed as a maintenance man to avoid

a deluge of campaign literature, and voted for every man onthe ballot. He didn't help anyone win, but he didn't lose anyfriends either.

Pi R Squared Over ...

A classmate of this esteemed gentleman went about it a

different way. It seems that if you take the total number of

letters in the titles of all the positions, subtract the numberof candidates running, then count to that letter in the alpha-

bet and vote for every man whose name begins with that let-

ter, you can't help but get the best man for the job.

Of course, the voters aren't very far ahead of the cam-paigners in the new idea field. One party carried the schemeof putting useful information on cards to its natural conclu-

son. Besides the names and positions of the thirteen menrunnng on tho ticket, they included: the telephone numbersat all the local girls colleges, Villanova's sports schedules upto and including 1984, the batting averages of every manplaying in the major leagues and selected winners at the

fourth race at Hieleah for August 13. Very few of these

cards were distributed, however, due to their prohibititive

size—14x15 feet.

Third Party TreatA new faction made its debut during the campaigning

—

the Free Thinkers^ They have demanded equal time andspace now that the elections are over. They held their first

disorganization meeting two weeks before the elections. Atnominations they sat actively silent, in hopes that no onewould be nominated.

During the actiyity of campaigns, they set up an agre»>

slye secret ser>Hce îi>itidi started a whisper eattpalgn designed

at keeping everyone away from the polls.

Next year, think a bit, then vote.

feats of the season in a tri

team match against Penn andPenn State.

Lose to PennThe Wildcat golfers were de-

feated 5-2 by the highly rated

University of Pennsylvaniateam. In this match, sopho-

more C&Fer, Marty Connelly

won his match but Jay Gibney,

Frank Kruse, and Joe Lewis

ran into trouble.

Senior Gibney lost one up at

the 19th hole and team cap-

tain Kruse lost one up at the

22nd hole.

Joe Lewis posted a very re-

spectable 75 in a losing cause

to Don Norberry's 70. Norber-

ry has a 70.6 average, making

him the best college golfer in

the east.

Against the scholarship-laden

team of Penn State (the na-

tion's number two team last

year) the Villanovans could do

little. Marty Connelly lost one

up and this was the closest the

Wildcats came to victory in the

7-0 whitewashing.Villanova Praised

Penn coach Bob Hayes, who

is prepping his team for the

Inter-Collegiate Championships

at Yale on May 15th said, "Vil-

lanova is the best team we

have faced beside Penn State".

This is high praise indeed, for

Penn State, with an 8-0 record,

is probably the best tean> in

the East.

Last week's bad weather

kept the team idle, but with

most of the tough opponents

out of the way, captain Frank

Kruse and the other members

of the team are looking for-

ward to winning all of their re-

maining matches.

Two days later the Villano-

vans met and defeated Saint

Joe's 12-6 in a match played at

the Cedarbrook Country Club.

Junior Nick Aquilino was low

man with a two over par 74.

Aquilino, Reggie Zurinskas, and

Roger Gaire contributed nine of

the Cats twelve points.

Frank Kruse, Joe Lewis, and

Bill Mawn scored the remainder

of the Villanova points.

Rematch with PennOn May 1st the Villanova

Golf team played a return match

with Pennsylvania at the Ply-

mouth Valley Country Club.

Penn won 5-2 in a match that

was much closer than the score

would indicate.

Joe Lewis lost to Don Nor-

berry, who posted a 39-32-71 on

the par 72 course and Jay Gib-

ney and Frank Kruse also lost.

Marty Connelly and Ronnie

Zurinskas won and Nick Aqui-

lino and Reggie Zurinskas ap-

peared to have good clianceo to

win.

At this point, it seemed as

if a 4-3 upset win for Villanova

was very possible but Aquilino

lost one up on the 18th and Reg-

gie Zurinskas lost one up on the

19th.

Villanova is, incidently, the

only local team to have defeat-

ed Penn in the last twenty years,

havingf turned the trick four

years ago.

They out-scored the Cadets 82

to 81 while Syracuse managedto score only ten points.

The meet only proved whatmany observers had said about

the V i 11 a n o V a track team

:

they're unbeatable in the run-

ning and jumping events but

when it comes to the weights

the 'Cats lose out considerably.

The Cadets swept the javelin,

field events to clinch the vic-

tory.

Three Win Two EachStandouts in the meet for

Villanova were Bob Holup,George Sydnor and Ron Delany,

Delany in the mile.

Six Deserve Praise

Although the Villanova vic-

tory over Army this past week-

end deserves much praise be-

cause of the great team effort

involved, a few feeks ago six

Villanova trackmen completed

one of the most difficult tasks

in Penn Relay history.

Vic De Maio. Ed Collymore,

Bob Godesky. Ron Delany,

George Sydnor and Charley

Stead were responsible for three

y JOi RnaPATMCK

The Villanova baseball team

has travelled the smooth road

through most of the season but

lately the path has become a

rocky one.

The 'Cats had won seven gam-

es in a row before losing two

out of the last three to two

local clubs, Saint Joseph's and

LaSalle.

Tne Monday loss to Saint Jo-

seph's (7-4) dimmed Villanova

hopes for an N.C.A.A. bid.

Joe Michell suffered his first

defeat of the season at the

hands of the Hawks. Joe had

previously won two.

The game had only one bright

spot as far as the Cats are con-

cerned, that being Bob Vincent's

solo home run, in the sixth in-

ning.

Kelly Entalners Fathers

Before a capacity Father's

Day crowd last Saturday the

Villanovans bounced back from

a Friday loss to LaSalle by

downing Seton Hall 4-1.

Senior ace Jack Kelly sent the

Pirates rowing back to Jersey

with only two hits and Kelly's

Villanova mates collected 10 hits

to give the Villanova mainstay

his fifth victory of the cam-

paign.

Of Villanova's ten hits sen

ior Joe Kolen, and sophomores

Bob Vincent and Paul Borian

collected two each.

Soph Bob Kropiewnicki bore

the brunt of the loss to LaSalle.

The Explorers scored five runs

on five hits as they put an end

to Villanova's seven game win

streak 5-2.

WORKSHOP PROVES TOP NECESSITY

OF GOOD UP-TO-DATE SCHOOL LIBRARYBy Sr. Rose Philippine, S.S.J.

Villanova's Library Workshop offered a golden opportunity

for teachers to be ahead of the times. "The day of the recom-mended elementary library is past," states the Reverend Dan-iel P. Falvey, O.S.A., Villanova's

librarian.

"The time is fast approachingwhen elementary libraries will berequired by evaluating committees,

ff and we must be prepared," he says.

An upswing of interest in libraries

has resulted in the Library Worlc-

shop which was held at Villanova

on Saturday, July 261 h, A cordial

welcome was extended to all the

summer students and to all teachers

and librarians, on or off campus.Important Questions

^^ Books are the tools of our pro-

fession, and as teachers, we have anobligation to know more aboutthem than their contents. What are

the library standards? How wide,

how deep, should shelving be? Whatrepresents a good basic collection?

What steps should be taken to es-

tablish a library? Every teachershould have the answer to these

questions.

If you are, (and who isn't?) build-

ing a new school, or new addition,

be articulate about the library be-

fore the blue prints are made. BeInformed about standards and in-

stallations.

Villanova initiated the Press Con-ference and the Publications Work-shop. Both projects are vitalizing

forces, with enrollment and en-thusiasm mounting each year.

The launching of the LibraryWorkshop is another Villanova"Explorer", not designed to startle

the space men, but to spark everyteacher with intense vigor.

DEDICATTOX CEREMONIES

Immediately following the

graduation exercises, the Aca-

demic Procession will proceed to

the New Commerce and Fiance

Building for the dedication of

the latest structure on tlie Vil-

lanova campus.

Science Training

To Be Offered

Fall of '58

Three significant announcementswere made last month by the VeryRev. James A. Donnellon, O.S.A.,

University President, indicating Vil-

lanova's tremendous progress andeminent reputation in the field of

science education.

It was announced early in Junethat the National Science Founda-tion in Washington had selected

Villanova among 85 outstandingcolleges and universities in the

country to participate in a teachingprogram designed to provide spe-

cial training for high school science

and mathematics teachers.

Part of an overall plan to in-

crease the tempo of science educa-tion in our nation, the program is

supported by federal grants. Vil-

lanova will offer its special train-

ing in the field of biological sci-

ence.

It will accept some twenty-five

applicants from a radius of 50miles.

Training HoursTraining will be given outside

school hours so that teachers mayattend while serving full time in

their own schools. About 30 meet-ings of the Teacher Training In-

stitute will be held beginning withthe opening of school in September.The University also disclosed

plans this month for the construc-tion of a new multi-million dollar

science building to keep pace withits reputation in the science field.

Announcement of the plans wasmade by Father Donnellon duringa dinner marking the closing of the

University's 1957-58 fund drive in

Dougherty Hall, June 30th.

Plans Not Complete

Plans for the new structure,

which will make the sixth new unit

since 1954, are not yet completebut construction will begin in the

near future, Father Donnellon said.

A faculty committee is presently

working on structural requirementsfor the different departments.

It was also announced that the

National Science Foundation hasawarded Villanova a grant of $15,-

000 for a basic research in chem-istry. The project will be conductedby the University's Department of

Research and Development and will

be supervised by chemistry profes-sor, Thomas H. Doyne.

To Warn Pupils

Of Red MenanceBy Sr. M. Rosalima, C.S.F.

"There is a force successful andascendant in the world today . . . Its

object to destroy everything that

Vlllanova stands for everything that

you In your vocation stand for . .."

asserted Judge Robert Morris In anaddress to a Villanova SummerScool audience last Monday, In Vas-ey Hall.

An expression of earnest convic-

tion, supplanting his quiet smile of

greeting, the prominent lawyer, andformer counsel for the United States

Senate's International SecurityCommittee proceeded to emphasizethe actuality of the Communistmenace to western civilization, the

importance of recognizing its degreeand proximity, and necessity of re-

sisting it.

Noting how deficient the Soviets

were just 12 years ago and howrapid their advance pointed out that

er, Judge Morris pointed out that

there were many factors assuring

the .success of that advance to whichthe U.S., as a nation, Is guilty of

contributing.

Twelve Years Ago

"Twelve years ago," pointed outthe Judge, "we had a powerfularmy; we had the foremo.st Navy;we alone had the atom bomb.

"The U.S.S.R. was weak and con-

fined to a relatively small geograph-ical area. Industrially, scientifically,

technologically, economically, theywere practically bankrupt." In the

past 12 years they have made in-

roads and advances that have gained

them territory encompassing athird of the earth's surface.
