Page Four THE SKYSCRAPER Oct. 17, 1962 Many feel that the increasing numbers of Mundelein's Young Democrats and Young Republicans is due to the Party Line. But we know the real reason: the fel lows outnumber the girls five to one. The seniors in the tearoom were astonished to hear Maureen Hana- fln exclaim, This year everyone will graduate cum laude. But I have a .4 average so you can't mean me too, said one of her compan ions. Why, of course I do, re plied Maureen, you'll graduate with me and my name will soon be Laude. Hear about Jackie Hughes and Mary Kay Walters? They were both hit by hard rocks. Jackie and Bill Ure will be married after graduation, Mary Kay and Joe Kroger on April 27. Daffy Definitions . . . Journalists' definition of a kiss Associated Press. Mathematicians' concept of some nothing divided by two. Attempting to explain to her in structor why she found the reading of Winnie the Pooh so difficult, Maureen Lucey remarked, You didn't tell me it's in Latin. Sister Mary Christiane, B.V.M., who spends most of her time at the University of Indiana, was asked by Carol Lisowski what she was doing back at Mundelein. With a gleam in her eye, Sister replied, I'm playing hookey; I learned it from the residents. In answer to Mr. Blair's question about women's emotions, Barbara P a w 1 i c k i stated, It's not that women are cold; it's just that men don't know how to defrost them. Christine Bobka is not uttering a syllable about President Ken nedy's i physical fitness program. Upon emerging from her fencing class, her right leg became com pletely numb from lunging. Miss De Grazia, showing a model of the alimentary canal to Sister Mary Joseph Therese, B.V.M.: Sister, I'd like you to meet George. Sister: How can you tell the difference between the male and the female voice apparatus? Miss De Grazia: Acoustically it's impossible, but physically, the female larynx shows more wear. Chivalry is NOT dead . . . While sitting in the parking lot waiting for the obstructions in their path to be moved, Nancy OToole and Jan Jearas were relieved of their worries by six Alpha Delt men who gallantly pushed the cars out of their way. Christine Mocarski's face posi tively contorted when she opened her lunch bag and found to her dis may that she had mistakenly taken brussel sprouts and asparagus in stead of her favorite sandwich. Mr. Cozart: Love and marriage go together like a horseless car riage. A slip of the tongue? Contemplating the ways and means of adding some excitement to the night, Joan Dougherty, Mary Eileen Scanlon, Ann Foxen, Mary Ann Rice and Marilee Shea decided they would upset the freshmen's routine with a beanie-raid. After burglarizing each room, they pro ceeded to warn the freshmen, if the newcomers didn't have their head gear in the morning, they would be ticketed. The not-so-green freshies retaliated by locking the doors of every occupied room in the dorm. But the battle was resolved when the sophs later threw a reconcilia tion party for their younger com rades. 'Bye for now, C.B.S. Faculty Members Speak At October Meetings Circles on faculty calendars in dicate that October will be one of the busiest months of the year. More widespread knowledge and appreciation of the progress of home economics in today's world are the aims of Sister Mary Pierre, B.V.M. as she outlines her speech to be given at Josephinum High School tomorrow. Opportunities in Home Economics is the topic of Sister's talk. Homemakers Meet Sister Mary Pierre, B.V.M., and Sister Mary Renee, B.V.M., will at tend a North Central Regional Con ference for college and university teachers to be held at the LaSalle Hotel Oct. 19-20. The main topic will be Foods and Nutrition. Sister Mary Pierre, a group dis cussion leader, will introduce Dr. Philip L. White, director of the Department of Foods and Nutrition of the American Medical Associa tion and his wife, Dr. Hilda White, lecturer in home economics at Northwestern University, the two resource persons of the discussion groups. Mrs. Ralph Schlarb, also of the home economics faculty, hopes to bring to her students new ideas in clothing from a meeting of college teachers of textiles and clothing in Audio Class Opens Doors The Modern Language Depart ment invites students who are in terested in the latest language tech niques to visit either 308 (French) or 301 (Russian) at 2 p.m. during the last week in October. The classrooms are equipped with tapes and film projectors to apply the audio-lingual method of lan guage instruction. This technique enables students to hear the lab voice in the classrooms as well as in the laboratory. Since no books are used until the 17th lesson, the would-be linguist must grasp her knowledge from the sounds heard. Tested by the French govern ment in Africa, this method proved highly successful. With the aid of psychologists, linguists, sociologists and electronic engineers, people were able to learn French in two weeks. Six hour classes immersed them in the language. Slower stu dents were allowed to continue lis tening to the tapes at their own pace. the Central States Region. All phases of clothing will be discussed Oct. 25-27 at the Palmer House as one phase of the topic Look to the Future.

Wire Sculpture Sways; Art Tempts the Touch STUDENT GUESTS at the tea following the Honors Convocation, had the privilege of serving their mothers. (L. to r.): Mrs. Delisi, Roselle Delisi, Mary Ellen Bradley, Ruth Fazioli, Mrs. Eichten and Mary McMahon. by Loretta Unconventional and exciting, this month's exhibit in Mundelein's Gal lery Eight features the sculpture of Konstantin Milonadis and prints and drawings by Norman Laliberte. The work of both artists seems to be similar in feeling; there is a whimsical, child-like quality that is deceptively simple and utterly de lightful. Invitations reading Please Touch label the kinetic sculpture of Milonadis. He seems to work from nature, using plant and ani mal forms, and abstracting them to wire constructions. The unique and charming aspect of his work is that it actually moves. The wire pieces are so put together that they sway at the slightest touch, in turn setting off other little moving parts. Technical problems involved in WAA Awards Athletic Prizes Mundelein's Women's Athletic Association will present awards to college sportswomen Oct. 25 at 4 p.m. in the gym. Girls receiving the white Mun delein letter and varsity volleyball pins are: Mary Farrell, Maureen O'Brien, Mary Anne Sprengelmeyer and Karen Williams. Adrienne Al berts, Sheila Kirby, Virginia Bishop and Carol Fullam have merited a letter and pin for varsity basket ball. Double winners Irene and Helen Skala will receive letters, varsity basketball and volleyball pins. Mary Lou Geist will receive volley ball and basketball pins and bars. Letters and manager's pins will go to Pat Johnson, Kitty Olechowski, Kay Knipp and Mary Pat Therri ault. Another event on the WAA cal endar is the winter weekend Jan. 25-27 at George Williams College Camp, Williams Bay, Wis. Regis tration for the skiing, skating and fun expedition is now open. WAA members will pay 22, non-members 25. Other WAA sports activities, varsity volleyball, intramural bas ketball and a ping-pong tourna ment, are open for all-school par ticipation. Bernbom creating such sculpture are many, though Milonadis has achieved this with seemingly effortless grace. Laliberte uses religious subject matter, yet his animal and angel figures border on the fantastic. For example, one chalk and ink drawing depicts an animal resem bling a ram; (or if it's not a ram, at least it has horns). The face is orange, with startingly human- looking eyes; patches of green and blue fleck the body, and the horns are striped in blue, white and brown. At first glance, Laliberte's work appears crude, out of proportion and generally untidy. But his drawings speak to the modern mind with a greater force than the natu ralistic and perfectly flawless re ligious art of the old masters. Laliberte depicts not a physical but a spiritual reality. He says: Physical impression would arrest the imagination. It would detract from the hidden and real meaning.
