Mundelein Poets Merit Places in Verse Anthology Student Verse is Subject of Magazine Article The work of three Mundelein poets merits a place in the Anthology of Magazine Verse, 1938-1942 edited by- Alan F. Pater, which was published this summer. Sister Mary Irma, B.V.M., of the English department, Sister Mary Athana- ius, B.V.M., Dorothy Riley '32, who is now teaching at St. Joseph's academy, Des Moines, and Joanne Dimmick '38, college promotion manager, have poems in the anthology. Student poets also gain recognition in an article by the Reverend Charles M. Carey, C.S.C., of the University of Notre Dame, published in The Catholic World for August and entitled They Sing Off Key. Father Carey testifies that the work of student contributors to Quest, the college anthology of verse, proves that some where there are undergraduates to whom poetry is still an art, for ... wholesome and intelligible simplicity of expression. . is of paramount importance. FaUicr Carey laments the neuroticism and preoccupation with the unintelligible which is evident in the general run of collegiate verse. In his own words, . . we are prone to exchange the lyre for the strident hurdy-gurdy. It is poets like those of Mundelein, he believes, who, clinging to the true sources of Catholic inspiration, have written beautiful and true and intelligible verse. Korean Missionary Will Speak Oct. 13 Former Student to Describe Years in Orient Would you like to know about long time Japanese preparations for the war? What would you do if you were com manded to teach a Jap soldier some English? Furthermore, do you know the difference between Koreans and Japanese? Mundelein's first foreign missionary, Sister Mary Gregoria ex '36, of Mary- knoll, who was evacuated from the Orient last summer and who arrived on the Gripsholm in August, will give the answers in a lecture on her mission ary experiences at the general Sodality meeting, on Oct. 13, at 1 p.m. Having spent four years in Korea, Sister Mary Gregoria, who is the sister of Sister Mary Gregoria, B.V.M., of the secretarial department, was selected as one of the 1400 Americans sent to this country on a diplomatic exchange ship last June. Sister's missionary career has taken her almost around the world, since she crossed the Pacific to Korea in 1938, and returned by way of Portugese East Africa and South America. What Qoes On Former Students Enter Novitiate Two former Mundelein students, Rita Kennclly '42 and Betty Geary ex '45, entered the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity, B.V.M., on Sept. 8, and one former student, Marie Gallagher ex- '42, now Sister Mary Liam, B.V.M., was professed. A chemistry major, Miss Kennelly was chosen to model the bridesmaid en semble at the Fashion Revue at the Stevens in April. Miss Geary was so cial chairman of the freshman class and had been elected to represent the soph omores on the Student Activities Council. f tA Forum Discusses Buying Problems Created by War Looking ahead to the time when na tion-wide meat rationing will present a new problem in buying and nutrition, speakers at the first of a series of Con sumer Forums, sponsored by the home economics department, considered, yes terday, the use of legumes as meat sub stitutes. Designed to assist students in solving the problems of daily life created by the war program, the forums are a part of the college Victory program and have adopted as their slogan a phrase from the historic Mayflower Compact Our Better Order and Preservation. Led by Jean Kaufmann, the panel dis cussion, illustrated by charts, treated the general topic, Increased Cost of Living in War Time Economy, and, specifically, the U. S. Army Rations, Sugar Saving, and Legumes in Meat Substitution. The discussions, which are open to the entire student body, will be held on the first Thursday of each month at 3 p.m., in the fourth-floor assembly ball. Speakers Laud Foundress; Define Christian Culture Radio Priest Qives Sermon At Annual Mass Christian culture is the happy, har monious combination of all the qualities of a Christian lady, declared the Rev erend J. J. Dussman, famed for his radio program for shut-ins, in a sermon following the Mass of the Holy Ghost, on Sept. 25. To possess Christian culture, Father Dussman continued, one must have the power to discriminate, one must have character, and one must be aware of the splendor of imagination. Discrimination, taste, according to Father Dussman, is the hallmark of a truly educated woman, while character is the essential interior goodness on which all her external charm must rest. The quality of splendor of imagination enables her to pierce beyond the warp and woof of erring humanity and see the glowing beauty of faith, the mag nificence of spiritual life, and the glory of the Catholic Church in its golden thread of Divinity. Father Dussman, who has been a member of the Diocesan Mission Band, is pastor of Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish and chaplain of the Glen- view air base. Pays Tribute to Mother Mary Francis Clark Honoring Mother Mary Francis Clarke, foundress of the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Reverend Walter Croarkin paid tribute to the courage, the holiness, and the influence of the quiet young woman who. over 100 years ago, laid the foun dation for the teaching order which conducts Mundelein College. This gentle religious, declared Father Croarkin, who lectured at the Foun dress Day program on Oct. 1, found her strength in solitude and in the practice of humility, patience, obedience, and mortification. The order she founded, Father Croarkin continued, has grown to be a potent influence in the lives of thou sands of Catholic students throughout the United States. Mother Clarke, who founded her Con gregation in Philadelphia in 1833, was voted the greatest Catholic woman of the century in a nation-wide poll con ducted by The Queen's Work, in 1933. Following his lecture, Father Croark in, who is a lecturer, a writer, and the pastor of St. Agnes church, solemnized Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacra ment, for which the Glee club sang the hymns. YY/HAT'S new in hats? From the tassled mortar boards of Mundelein to the jaunty overseas caps of the Air Corps have gone Maryanne Vitek and Virginia Coffey '42, employees of the Army Air corps at the Stevens Hotel. In smart salute blue, be-tailored, be-gold buttoned, and with tiny gold-wing sleeve emblems designed by Miss Coffey, these graduates in uniform have nothing but enthusiasm for their work and surround ings. THERE are tense moments, however, * and terse commands to learn and heed, as Miss Vitek discovered one day in a Stevens corridor when a sharp voice commanded: Halt, and About face Nothing was fired, however, except an official comment, Pretty smooth uni form I VJOT Bundles for Bluejackets but Sky- * ' scrapers for Servicemen is the motto of our readers. Prompted by patriotism and a good neighbor policy, the Sky scraper staff will help you make arrange ments to send copies of the paper to Loyola students who are now in the service. Bring names and address to the Skyscraper office and help us to contact that soldier, sailor, or marine who wants to know what goes on at Loyola and Mundelein. T UMBER One on our Freshman Hit Parade is the whirling dervish a green capped lass observed in the senior locker room trying to find her locker and confusing the route to it with its combination. In authentic Sherlock Holmes fashion, she followed the clues which the yellow combination lock card afforded, revolving herself two whole turns to the right and making a dash to locker 25. Then she turned left, walked past the above num ber, and arrived at locker 19. Next, she pivoted to the right and stopped at locker 12. Alack The lass, after her revolving door exhibition, was no closer to her locker but much closer to collapse. VWANTED: One bassoon The Or chestra is nothing if not patriotic even when a junior member, and a national prize winner at that, finds that priorities stand between her and her musical career. If the Salvage for Victory people should reject the bas soon you kept among your souvenirs, bring it to the seventh floor, please. Offer Daily Rosaries For Armed Forces Prefect Appoints Twenty Chairmen Stressing the need for increased empha sis on the supernatural and for prayers for the armed forces, the Sodality spon sors the recitation of the Rosary twice daily, at 10:50 and 11:50 a.m. in Stella Maris Chapel.

New Text Introduced For Home Economists Second Book is Published By Instructor A new text, The Development of Charm and Personality, by Sister Mary St. Remi, B.V.M., of the home economics department, published this month, con tinues the theme of a preceding work, Charm and Personality in Dress, which Sister published in 1937 and which has since become the nucleus of courses in personality at Mundelein and at 70 other schools. While enlarging on a five-point pro gram of self-improvement, including voice cultivation, grooming, posture, dress, and manners, the text, like its prede cessor, holds to the point that true charm springs from Christian culture. Sister Mary St. Remi lectured at the freshman assembly on Oct. 2, empha sizing the principles underlying taste and attractiveness in dress. Announce Cotillion Will be Held Nov. 6 (Continued from Page 1, Col. 5) Naundas Fisher, social chairman of the sophomore class, has appointed seven committees, headed by Viola Brennan, Mary Burns, lane Grant.
