Faculty Member Lectures Before Cisca Forum Guest of the Cisca Forum, Oct. 20. Sister Mary Liguori. B.V.M., chairman of the Sociology department, discussed the Christian Concept of Authority. Noting the eminent congeniality be tween human nature and organization, or society, Sister Mary Liguori reasoned that, since the state seems good for man and since mar seems to believe organiza tion good for him. it is just to conclude that organization and authority are God- given. Having established the Christian con cept of authority, Sister examined atti tudes toward it in modern ideologies, notably the ideology of Communism. Marxism, she insisted, is founded on the erroneous idea that the state, through a process of evolution, will wither away, and authority will disappear with it. Circumstances which made the Marx idea appealing include. Sister Mary Li guori notes, the denial of the moral au thority of the state, the segmentation of Christianity after the Reformation, the Industrial Revolution, the laisscz fairc philosophy of economics, and the Dar winian theory of perfectability. These circumstances created conditions which made Marxism appealing and which led to its adoption in Russia. But. Sister Mary Liguori concluded, since authority and the state have not withered away. Russia today has a form of capital ism and of statism more vicious than any the world has ever known, and the per version of the Christian concept of au thority has led to disastrous denial of human rights.

Pierre Fresney, whose acting made Monsieur Vincent, the story of St. Vin cent De Paul's life, an event in the mo tion picture world, here reenacts the century-old experience of an island parish off the Breton coast. Actually, the theme could be reversed, as Men Need God, since the tragedy of the story is the privation and bitterness that comes to men who have clung to vicious habits, lost their parish priest, the sacraments, and the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The French club, under the chair manship of Mary Soutsos, brought M. Fresney to the Mundelein screen last Friday night with the presentation of La Main DO Diable. With students from other Chicago col leges, French club members and their Mundelein guests joined in a post-pic ture discussion.

(Story on Page 1.) Portia Must Face Life Breathes there a man with soul so dead, who, to himself, has never said ... I was in a play once So-many a star is born, and many a director dies a slow, painful death. Take the case of Sally Stagcstrurk. who starred in a high-school play. She was second from the end in a mob scene and. since it was a sad part, she played it pitifully. Sally's mother, however, thought she was superb, and the ingenue's eyes lit up like flood-lights. Theatre Arts. Players Magazine, and a dozen similar publications began arriving, and were avidly read and mem orized. Sally recognized her own ability and decided to take her gift of acting and present it to people who would ap preciate it. So, lines in head and Medea in hand. Sally came to college to bring the school everlasting fame with her unforgettable performances. But, instead she was is sued a paint brush and pail. The spotlight dimmed and it seemed to Sally that someone had rung down the final curtain when she heard that 50 hours of crew work are required of every Freshman. But college docs strange things to peo ple, even to stage-struck people. In less than six weeks the star of the high school senior play, the potential Helen Hayes rival, is absorbed in painting back drops, building flats, hauling scenery. Technician George Pettersen, who does sets for both WGN-TV and Mundelein. has communicated the idea that settings are vital, stage crews are significant, the star is practically nothing without the lights and the background. Sally Stagestruck suddenly sees her self as an important cog in the pjay machine. Without her, the Trojan Wo men wouldn't have a level to stand on, a scarf to catch their tragic tears. Fresh man Sally is starring backstage.
