Jesuit Lectures on Ethics of Business Scientism Permeates Everyday Thinking Lecturer Declares Scientism is so much a part of the very air we breathe that we are scarce ly aware of its existence, declared the Reverend John Wellmuth, S.J., in a lecture before members of the Phil osophy club on Feb. 27. Father Wellmuth traced the rise of the modern tendency to regard as true only those things which can be proved through scientific investigation, noting that eighteenth and nineteenth-century thinkers tended away from the convic tion that certitude is possible and toward the fallacious view that only probability exists. The result of such a tendency is a wide-spread loss of confidence in the powers of the human mind, Father con cluded. lathematics Club Presents Novel Dimensional Romance piving material from a book en- i Flatland, a Romance of Many Di- (aons, by an author appropriately A.

Said Freshman Dorothy Hasten, sadly, to Freshman Marilyn Reynolds: Whafll I do? I'm a clock. Replied Freshman Reynolds: That's not bad. Think of me. I'm the moon. At this point, the journalists stole quietly away fearing that the clock might strike but if you are interested in the reasons for these strange remarks, see Column 3.

Musicians Present Varied Program at Wednesday Musicale Beethoven's brilliant Contra Dance No. 1, a piano solo by Colletta Balaam, opened the Wednesday Musicale on Feb. 21. It was followed by Brahms' Intermezzo, Op. 117, No. 1, played by Jo Ann McCarty. Soprano Eunice Dankowski, accom panied on the piano by Catherine Pren dergast, sang the rhythmic Seguidilla from the opera Carmen, by Bizet. Three of Chopin's compositions for the piano the Prelude in F Minor, the Waltz in E Minor, and the Waltz in E-Flant Major, Op. 18 were selected by Carmelita Larroco, Lillian Loguidi- ce, and Ida Quintilliani for their piano solos.

Closing the program, Gloria Maloney played the solo portion in the Second Movement of Beethoven's expressive Concerto in C Major. Sun Foreign Editor Addresses Assembly The second World War actually started in September, 1931, when the Japanese invaded Manchuria an event we thought did not concern us, de clared Ernest Von Hartz, foreign editor of the Chicago Sun, to the student as sembly on March 1. Mr. Von Hartz illustrated America's ' seeming unconcern formerly over events occurring outside her boundaries with her allowing the Japanese to fortify the mandated islands, strategy which cost the U. S. the Philippine Islands in 1942. The importance of international co operation is apparent now, remarked Mr. Von Hartz, who strongly favors the encouraging efforts of the United Nations to create peace machinery be fore, not after, the war's end. But the war will not end when the last shot is fired, he warned. Facing the U. S. then, he concluded, will be the problem of re-education of the Ger man people by the German people, re leased from concentration camps. In an interview after his lecture, Mr. Von Hartz declared that, had there been a free press in Germany, it would have done much to prevent the Na tional Socialist party from gaining as complete control of the country as it did. English Round Table To Honor St. Patrick Taking its theme from Erin's most famous saint, the English Round Table will discuss Irish Literature, under the sponsorship of St. Patrick, at its meet ing on March 15.
