Page Four THE SKYSCRAPER October 5,1960 Local Lass Gets Home Touch In Land of The Fighting Irish From Soup to Nuts by Mary Jo Murray Food Director Tells Way to Girls' Hearts Rah-rah-rah for the Fighting Irish A cheer for Notre Dame? No. County Mayo football scores as the real McCoy on sophomore Deirdre O'Malley's program. Dee received a summer in Europe as a graduation gift from her uncle. She toured Ireland July 6 to Aug. 28. The football season was well under way. THE NAME'S THE SAME but not the game, Deirdre concluded after a sporting Sunday afternoon as .the guest of her County Mayo cousins. First of all, Irish players use a soccer ball rather than a football. Eleven men hold positions similar to those in the American sport, but they kick the ball while running and never carry it, she explained. Irish foot ball seems more like our kickball. But their uniforms gave me the biggest surprise. The team wears togs, which are short pants, and jer seys with matching spikes resembling Club News... In recognition of the wide influence of physics on other areas of study, the physics department has inaugurated a Colloquium which meets in Room 609 on Monday afternoons at 4:10. The effects of current scientific ad vancement on everyday living will be discussed at these informal meetings. The Physics Colloquium is open to all students regardless of majors. It carries one hour of credit or may be used as a sit-in course without credit. * * * The Laetare Players plan to accept new pledges at the annual pledge party, Oct. 13 at 3:15. Freshmen who have completed the designated Club Week requirements will qualify for pledges. * * * A Breath Can Save Your Life, a movie on the mouth to mouth method of life saving, will be shown Oct. 10 in Room 707 at 3 p.m., sponsored by the Red Cross. * * * Tentative plans for a Thanksgiving hayride will be drawn up at the first meeting of the Equestriennes, Oct. 18 at 1 p.m. in Room 302. All girls in terested in horses and horseback rid ing are invited to attend. * * * Theta Psi Alpha, the Psychology Club, will send 23 member-representa tives to the Psychology Career Con ference at the Morrison Hotel, Oct. 8. Sponsored by the Illinois Psychology Association. OPEN HOUSE Open house in the alumnae-pub lic relations department, Room 205, which will be held on Oct. 11- 12 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. will feature prizes and surprises ac cording to Leo J. Flanagan, public relations director. Everyone who drops in to get acquainted will also find out what public relationship involves. As an extra, those going to the open house may use the main stair case, added Mr. Flanagan. Reading Clinic Opens For Student Use A reading clinic designed to improve Mundelein students' reading profi ciency and comprehension will open in mid-October. Sister Mary Joan The rese, chairman of the education de partment also announced that Mr. Edmond Cavanaugh, education in structor, will supervise the program. The clinic, to be located in Room 201, is designed to give girls with de fective reading skills an opportunity to correct them. Students who wish to improve their reading speed and com prehension will also benefit from the new clinic. ours. Deirdre pointed out the Irish stars do not require helmets or pad ding. Scoring differs too. Kicking the ball under the goal post bar gains three points; over adds one. A HALF-TIME SHOW? Of course, and bagpipes to boot Deirdre admits she enjoyed this as much as the game. Football and hurling share hon ors as Ireland's favorite sports. Peo ple thronged to the game. Their en thusiasm floored me and the half-time performance added to the thrill. A fife and drum corps kicked up a real rum pus on the field, sparked the lucky lass. Almost running out of football chatter Dee chuckled and quipped, Imaging going to a football game on two shillings. But that was a county game; the All-Irish matches run as high as five to ten shillings. Deirdre summed up her feeling for the great Irish pastime by promising, If it cost 50 shillings, I wouldn't miss it Water Ballet Breaks Terrapin Tradition A water ballet class replaces the 25- year tradition of Terrapin initiation, complete with conspicuous green out fits and stunts. Anyone is welcome to attend this special program scheduled every Wednesday at 4 p.m. in the pool. Final acceptance of new members will be made in December. This year's senior officers include: Deanna Lewin, president; Alice Con nelly, vice president; Marilyn Moss, chairman of the show; and Pat Bozis, secretary. The sophomore officers are: Barbara Loescher, treasurer and Jackie Koss, social chairman. If the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach, Charles Dewitt, the new food director of Mundelein's cafeteria, has gained 1,200 feminine hearts. With the addition of novel taste-teasers, Mr. Hewitt has already won enthusiastic approval from the students. His crisp white shirt, bow tie and warm vitality mark him as an efficient executive and that was his original intention, Mr. Hewitt majored in business administration at the Univer sity of Indiana. I WORKED WITH FOOD all through high school and college, re called the new director. That's how I paid my way through school. When Mr. Hewitt began his career by Dorothy Nelson in business, he discovered that dealing with foods offered more variety, so he changed positions. First, I began with a restaurant, then I went to Culver Military Academy in Indiana. From there I came to Chicago and became food director at Jackson Park Hospital. And now here I am at Mundelein, explained the vibrant director. Admitting that it was quite a change to come from an all-boys' military academy to a women's college, Mr. Hewitt stressed that you must first de termine what various groups of people like to eat. GIRLS LIKE SALADS, sand wiches and fancy desserts, but a boy is happy with big hamburgers, steaks, S ku udcrapinad p NOTE: Since the current literary trend is toward, your Auntie Pumpinella feels that the only fashionable thing to do is give you a con densation of the contents of her column. The condensation is for those students who prefer to pursue stuff and nonsense rather than the type of intellectual material presented in this column. Having given the subject matter much thought, your Auntie offers her work in a form so concise as to charm the heart of a wheelbarrow and to make a shovel dance. Here it is ( 0 ) WELL, now that the intellectuals have been taken care of, we serious people can get down to business. My dears, those new fangled elevator things certainly aren't here to stay. Your Auntie got hung up in one of them the first day of school and hasn't gotten over it yet There we were, 18 of us packed into that box like the ugly stepdaughter's foot in the glass slipper, when the contraption up and quit in mid-floor. After spending quite a while deciding what to do first, someone who must have been a Viceroy smoker suggested that we call for help. The first reply to the call gave encouragement to all. Stay right where you are, the voice said. The next remark was to the effect that the cause of power failure was overloading, and that someone would simply have to get off. This sug gestion lead to the adding up of everyone's weight just for fun. It was very interesting to the objective observer that nobody on that elevator weighed more than 105 pounds, dripping wet and in an overcoat. Pat Bozis' only comment was that she'd like to be out in time for graduation but wouldn't mind missing senior comps. We were saved just in time. Just as the power went on again, we heard Sister Jean Michael's voice outside the elevator saying, Don't move, girls, and I'll give you a fast course in metaphysics. . . . ARE YOU WITHOUT FUNDS? Are you looking for a part-time job? If so, your little Auntie has one for you. It pays nothing, but will keep you cheerful in your impoverished state. The Floating Newsmonger and Busy body Association is looking for some irresponsible individuals to carry on some extremely unimportant subversive snooping. What are your qualifications for such a position? If you have any nasty characteristics at all the Association is willing to hire you. Just write your qualifications on a slip of paper and put it on Locker 282. There's a job for every applicant . , . THE SAC SUGGESTION BOX received an interesting note from a boy named Larry Loyola the other day. It said that since the Loyola boys make an effort to be friendly to us, we ought to meet them half way. Larry, just let your loving Auntie know half way to where, and she'll come running to meet you any time . . . After examining a jar of earth as a science project, Ann Zarlenga's written report stated that she had found three tiny black bugs, six pale white worms and hundreds of little black aunts. . . . Did you know that when it comes to doing things for others, some people will stop at nothing? CHEF Aaron Williams and Food Director Charles Hewitt give their expert supervision to the featured item on the day's menu. Student Mass To Honor Mary Tuesday, Oct. 11, marks the first in a series of monthly student Masses to be celebrated in Stella Maris Chapel at 12 noon. Reverend William Clark of the theology department will offici ate. Continuing last year's practice of student participation in the liturgy, booklets will be provided so that all may sing the Ordinary. The Schola will sing the Proper. A new high in Mundelein liturgical participation was achieved at the Mass of the Holy Ghost on Sept. 23, when the entire student body sang the Mass. The Mass on Oct. 11 commemorates the feast of the Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The dates of all the Masses are listed on the school calendar. Dean Reveals New Parking Facilities, Driver Regulations New parking facilities and regula tions have been brought to the atten tion of the student body by Sister Mary Assisium, B.V.M., dean of stu dents. Parking spaces along the building in the college lot are now available for student use with the exception of the first spot at the south end. Formerly the area was reserved for the faculty who will now park in the new lot ad jacent to the Scholasticate. Students are asked to comply with the No Parking signs which are posted by the City Street Department for cleaning purposes on Kenmore and Winthrop Sts. once a month. The college has not yet authorized students to park in the lot on Kenmore and Sheridan. Mundelein owns the lot and is attempting to obtain city authorization to pave the area for stu dent parking. Students are warned that cars darting over the sidewalk into the unmarked lot endanger pedes trians' lives. potatoes and gravy, he laughed. Putting his theory into practice, Mr. Hewitt has added a new variety of salads to the cafeteria line. He has introduced what he calls a Poor Boy's Sandwich into the menu. Just place beef, pork or sardines, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and olives on a vienna roll. The girls really seemed to love them, he beamed. And he promises that this is just the beginning of new things to be added. WHEN THE GIRLS start school, they'll eat anything. But after a while they begin to get bored looking at the same thing. I don't want that to hap pen, so periodically we'll introduce new items, Mr. Hewitt explained. But although new foods are added, a well-loved part of the cafeteria scene will remain its staff of 14 helpers. Aaron Williams, our towering jovial chef, will continue to prepare the food as he has for the past 13 years. Work ing with him is Mildred Jones, another member of the kitchen staff who has put in many years of devoted service. Although he primarily directs all the food operations of the staff, Mr. Hewitt admitted with a twinkle in his eye that he likes to fix salads and sand wiches when the mood strikes him. But at home his wife does the cooking, and the mood usually strikes only a few times during the year when he prepares duck in a wine sauce. BESIDES FOOD, the collegiate- looking cook is enthusiastic over something else Mundelein Even though I've been here for such a short time, I like it very much, he concluded. Mock Election Set Mundelein's political clubs, the Young Democrats and the Young Re publicans will sponsor a mock election for the school's choice of candidates Thursday, Oct. 27. Voting for Kennedy and Johnson or Nixon and Lodge will take place at a booth in the lounge from 8 to 4. Re turns will be counted and results an nounced the following day.
