This was the underlying theme of the third annual Leadership Conference held at the col lege, Sept. 21. The conference, planned jointly by Sister Mary Assisium, B.V.M., Terri McManamon, Renee Sluka, and Ann Zarlenga, opened with the Holy Sacri fice of the Mass in the College Chapel and was attended by approximately 75 club and class officers. In pointing out the duties of the leader, Sister Mary Irene, B.V.M., of the psychology department stated that the word leadership in itself, implies a purpose to direct the actions of others to a certain Set Designer Brings Brussels to Chicago William Fosser, who designs sets for Mundelein plays, will show colored slides of the Brussels World Fair, Monday, Oct. 6 at 7 p.m. in Room 405. The Laetare Players, the Eco nomics club, and the International Relations club are sponsoring the event. Mr. Fosser took the slides this sum mer while on assignment for the Wild ing Film Studio, where he is employed as chief artist and designer. Everyone is invited to view the slides. goal. Sister's topic was Group Dynamics. The duty of the American student leader, then, according to Vicki Bomba, SAC president, is to arouse campus interest in world problems, thus refut ing the charge of European students, that we are not concerned with any thing that doesn't directly concern us. Bill Plante, Loyola Union Presi dent, emphasized the fact that en thusiasm and tact play important parts in the leader's personality. A leader has the opportunity to exert influence, sometimes with out his knowledge, and is enriched by his experience if he searches for his directions in Christ. Speaking on the importance of pub licity and public relations in planning any class or club activity, Mr. Daniel Cahill, Director of Public Relations at Mundelein, stated that good publicity can gain much financial and moral support for any function. Miss Margaret Roach, public relations director for St. Benet's Bookstore, also emphasized the importance of publicity and ad vanced programing in the offi cer's job. Another method of assisting the leader in his role was given by Sister Mary Liguori, B.V.M., of the Soci ology department who gave the con ference a resume of parliamentary law. Studs Knows All About Jazz Enthused Audience Finds Out by Mary Lou Brady Louis (Studs) Terkel was a man I had never seen until Thursday morn ing, but by Thursday afternoon at .'i I knew Pd never forget him. I met him formally at 1 p.m., and in formally at 2 p.m., and I came away with a sense of having rushed through an era of vibrant jazz without stop ping for breath, and not getting tired. He used the terms vitality and buoyancy to show us jazz as it should be and described himself at the same time. This story teller of modern music was bub bling with enthusiasm and love of his subject which he transmitted to his audience. Names like Armstrong, Goodman, Dorsey, and Duke Ellington were brought to life and made real by this of college study are Mary Ellen An- dries, Loretta Cahill, Gloria Callaci, Dorothy Ciszewski, Martha Fingleton, Katherine Griffin, Kathleen Huhmann, Nancy Itnyre, Jeanine Kuhn, Mary Ann Makowski, Kathleen McGuire, Rosalyn Mocchi, Joanne Piekarski, Theresa Rokita, Mary Ryan, Charlene Sassetti, Sheila Sepanski, Sister Mary Claude, H.H.S., Sister Mary Regina, H.H.S., Sister Mary Francis Xavier, H.H.S., Jacqueline Smith, Judith Sodeman, and Anne Zarlenga. man who gets so carried away he for gets and sticks the wrong end of a cigarette in his mouth. An enthusiast since he was old enough to sneak out and follow his brother to a nearby ballroom, Mr. Terkel gave many a long- awaited answer to questions, such as, why disc jockeys play a record over and over after its normal run, or why jazz was not brought into its own until recently, and what influence does jazz have on music in other countries. He brought life and vitality with him and gave one a feeling of expect ancy for the forthcoming date with Benny Goodman. Senior Tours Europe with NFCCS, Visits Brussels Fair, 12 Countries It was an education equal to a year of graduate work, senior Barbara Covey says of her 80-day European tour this summer. But, our seasoned traveler ruefully adds, besides an education, I gained ten pounds and developed fallen arches. This was a small price to pay for the wonders she saw. Barbara, and her brother, Frank, along with 28 other members of an NFCCS tour, traveled through 12 Euro pean countries. ... Thirteen countries, if you count Monaco, she told this reporter. We saw France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, Holland, England, Wales, and Ireland. In Paris, one of her first stops after arriving at La Havre late in June, Barbara attended Sunday Mass at the Cathedral of Notre Dame, went cruising down the Seine, rode the Metro, Paris' sub way, saw the city from atop the Eiffel Tower, and shopped in the book stalls along the Left Bank. C. . . . . , In Spain, the tourists joined the aiTipUS HaS NeW Look cheering crowds in Barcelona and Madrid at bullfights. Barbara met Chamaco, Spain's second highest-paid toreador, who had barely escaped death in the ring the day before. At Lourdes, they took part in the midnight procession, and in Italy saw His Holiness Pope Pius XII at his summer residence. Castle Gondolfo. Barbara got lost in Rome, threw a coin in the Fountain of Trevi, took a gondola ride in Venice, and went on a picnic in the Austrian Alps. Their schedule enabled them to spend two and a half days at the Brussels World Fair. Barbara described it as a jewel by night, and by far, the greatest attempt the world is making right now toward the peaceful use of the atom. Her favorite exhibit was that of the United Kingdom, with the United States' coming a close second. She recalls that there was nothing unique or artistic about the Russian pavillion. The American flag from the United States' pavillion made her homesick, and she welcomed the soda she bought there. It was the only soda I had in all of Europe. Because their ship was behind schedule, the tour spent an extra four days in Ireland, and lost a day at sea avoiding a hurricane. Back in the States since September 4, Barbara enjoys playing her music box purchased in Ireland. It plays Danny Boy, but it's Irish charm is a bit destroyed by the words mode in Switzerland on the back. With Improvements, Changes for New Year Walls are tumbling down and fur niture is arriving in an effort to give this year's 1,100 students added space to work. Men are at work converting north wall elevator shafts into faculty offices for student counseling. These rooms will be on floors three to eight inclu sive. Room 506, formerly the Review staff office, and Room 407 have been converted into additional classrooms. The Review office is now located in Room 509. Room 405 has also taken on an ex tra glow. Present new lights and fu ture new furniture will turn it into an informal study and meeting hall for students and faculty. New lights are a gift of Mundelein Fathers' Club and Women's Auxiliary. Anticipated pro ceeds from the Student Benefit will help defray costs of new furniture. Outside the Skyscraper, Philo- mena and Lourdes halls are tem porary homes of the scholastics until the Scholasticate is finished second semester. Aquinas hall, located just south of the Scholasti cate, is also serving as temporary quarters for the scholastics. Resident students who formerly lived in these buildings, now occupy the 9th, 10th, and 13th floors of the main building. Si udcrapinad School days, school days, dear old golden rule days ... Yes, those days are here again. Once more Mundelein is filled with sparkling faces and some sparkling jewels. Camille Zemrowski and Marilee Poglitsch are wearing beautiful emerald- cut diamonds received from Al Stryck and Bernard Dentzer, respectively. Also engaged are Ruth Wolfe to Ray Andrew, Geraldine Burke to Kenneth Kleich, Marie Kammerle to James Truman Smith, Mary Rohner to Ron Pawl, Joan Ayres to Jim Woodrow, and Connie Brunell to Larry Hartnett. Barbara Covey has a few thousand words to say about her summer which she spent touring Europe with her brother. Freshman May Brett is just beginning to realize that her holiday in South America is ended. Vacationing on Florida's sandy shores were Marge Siemieniak, Belle And erson, Barb Gotsch, and Valmar Price. Roselle Primeau, senior French major, studied at Laval University, Quebec, this summer. She not only had a wonderful vacation, but received 10 hours credit besides. Accompanying her was Mary Olsen, a graduate of last year. Mary Phyllis Fulgaro visited San Francisco as a delegate to the NFCCS convention. Her sightseeing took her to Beatnikville, which she describes as the arty, off-beat section of town, Chinatown and Fishermen's Wharf. Jean Keifer and Belle Anderson got a real thrill watching a team they coached perform in a water ballet festival at Winona Lake Aug. 22 to 24. Alice Bourke spent her summer as a scientific research specialist for Ency clopedia Britannica. Her job included answering questions about the love call of the mosquito, internal body temperature of the hippopotamus, and geo physical variations in the ionosphere. Another problem she considered was whether dynamite blows up or down. Lynda Rousseau's position with American Field Publishing Co. included writing obituaries for dogs. On the social side, Lynda and Pat Jones attended a recent Delta Sigma Theta pledge party. Freshman resident students started the social season by attending a mixer at Loyola during the first week of school. All the freshmen will soon be seeing green, green beanies that is, at Loyola's annual Beanie Bounce Oct. 10. Thought for today: Ce Villie der dago, Tousan buses inaro, No Jo, doser trux, Vots inum? Kausandux.
