Are they successful ca reer girls in a matter of four months? Vital statistics reveal that the forty- niners hold a variety of jobs. Peggy Roach. SAC president last year, is using her Journalism major in public relations work for the Navy, at the U. S. Naval Air Station at Glenview. Mediaeval Scholar Urges Study of Summa Theologica Beautiful in its simplicity, towering in its majesty, the .Summa Theologica is a masterwork of wisdom, declared the Reverend Gerald B. Phelan, Ph.D., chairman of the University of Notre Dame Philosophy department, in a lecture, Oct. 18. Read the Summa , Dr. Phelan urged the members of Mu Nu Sigma and their guests. Intellectual life must be per meated with love, and the Summa Theologica will spread into your souls the love of truth. Dr. Phelan outlined the structure and the craftsmanship of the Summa, comparing it to a beautiful cathedral, marvelously constructed with exquisite stones. Its plan, he observed, involves God, the movement of Man toward God, and the Path in which he moves. A fruit of reading the Summa, the speaker pointed out, beyorfid mere 'knowledge, is simplicity and progress 'toward an integrated life. Two other Class '49 members, Mari- lyiine Larsen, History major and SAC vice-president, and Patricia Dannehy, NFCCS fund chairman, are teaching at St. Tarcissus school. Returning to her high school alma mater, English major Carol Stutz, sen ior class president last year ,is teaching English and Spanish at St. Scholas tica.

Sociology major Anne Seguin, So dality prefect first semester, is doing case work with the Catholic Charities, and Patricia Hanson, second semester prefect, is using her Home Economics major in work with Frozen Foods Lockers, incorporated. Barbara Fallon, NSA senior delegate last year, journeys to the suburbs each day to teach in the Oak Lawn school, and Patricia Troy, JCSA chairman and a Sociology major, is teaching in a public school on the south side.

Lectures at Loyola Open to Mundelein Loyola university has extended an invitation to the Faculty and students of Mundelein to attend a series of Honors Program lectures, each Wed nesday, at 4:15 p.m., in the Cudahy building. The series, which will extend through the first semester, deals with early lit erature and the arts. Scheduled for Wed-, Oct. 26, is a lec ture on Frescoes in the Catacombs, by the Reverend Lawrence E. Hender son, S. J. On Nov. 2. John McKian, Ph.D., will lecture on Dante, the great Florentine poet of the thirteenth century. Admis sion is free. Jesuit Talks on Labor Management Problems At Economics Maet Both management and labor have a moral obligation to come to an agreement, is the opinion expressed by the Reverend William J. Smith, S. J., in a lecture to economics stu dents, Oct. 14. Father Smith, director of Crown Heights Associated activities, Brooklyn, N. Y., told of the present steel strike, stating his views of the causes and effects. He gives the struggle for pow er, and not the pension fund issues, as the impetus behind the strike. Employer contribution to the pension fund is debatable, says Father Smith, and depends upon the employee wage- scale. The necessity of a pension fund, however, according to Father Smith, is concrete and definite.
