Oak St., is one of the most unique attempts by an artist to achieve a sense of individuality. Both his oil and wa ter-color paintings show a direct influence of this individuality. Mr. Wilt's water colors are basically an attempt at experimental techniques a very successful attempt. The majority of the water colors in the collection are extremely tex- turized. Since most of the paint ings involve foilage, Mr. Wilt has used this texturizing technique to bring about a natural surface quality resembling that of a leaf. Another of his interesting tech niques is that of a relief. This is one of Mr. Wilt's most novel ideas. By building up his paint in nega tive or receding parts of the paint ing, Mr. Wilt tends to reverse the actual importance of the subject matter. The most evident example of this may be seen in his paint ing Terrain. Here the rock for mation, which is the entire subject matter, seems to recede because the cracks in between the rocks are built up. Mr. Wilt's colors belong basically to the cool palette toned down to dull grays and greens which shim mer when they are given a point of light against which to contrast. neth, C.S.S.F., Marilyn Wuest and Virginia Zvonkovich.

A rolling stone gathers no moss . . . but it can gather a lot of souls, as dozens of Mundelein lay-mission volunteers will prove this summer. The June, July and August itiner ary of the collegiate apostles ranges from sleepy Southern towns to an Indian reservation. The Grail Movement, an interna tional organization of lay women, will claim ten Mundelein workers. California Bound One week's training at Grail's San Jose, Calif, center will intro duce Helen and Irene Skala to the economic situation, customs and re ligious trends of the state's migrant workers. Two weeks of teaching and social work will follow the girls' training period. When asked where they will be living during their three weeks in California, Helen laughed, We don't know yet, but we were told to bring our own sleeping bags. Spanish moss, magnolia trees and the women at Grail's Lafayette, La. center will welcome Tina De Rosa, Letitia Grabowski, Bernadine Gra- czyk, Dianne Kehres, Carlotta Le tizio, Carol Lisowski and Judy Wilder to their three weeks in the South. A week of orientation, dur ing which the girls will live in La fayette's Holy Rosary High School, will precede their two-week mission in Fenton, Abbeville, Melville or Kaplan, La. Catechism, arts and by Tina De Rosa crafts, home visiting and a student production are high on the girls' lists of activities. Expand Program Four more Mundelein girls will sample Southern hospitality when they spend June and August at the Pax Christi Center in Greenwood, Miss. A lay institute whose mem bers take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, Pax Christi will be aided in its religious census taking, home visiting and Bible classes by summer volunteers Joanne Caracci, Mary Farrell, Mary Anne Hoope and Nicole Stozek. Pioneeress Norah Murphy will blaze a trail seven weeks long at the St. Michael Mission, St. Mi chael, Ariz, on a Navajo Indian reservation. Norah will teach cate chism, music, physical education and art from June 12 to Aug. 1. Wild 'n Woolly Three more students going West are Sharon Mass, Terry Mc Hugh and Carol Smith, who will act as senior counselors at Camp San Benito, Canon City, Colo. During the month of July, they will teach tennis, archery and horseback rid ing at the Benedictine camp for girls. Mary Stone will teach catechetics and crafts at Martin de Porres Cen ter here in Chicago. Meeting the challenge on the lo cal front, two faculty members and 13 students will teach in the homes of Spanish-speaking families on the near north side. The girls Charlene Baloun, Cynthia Bell, Christine Bobka, Joanne Caracci, Germaine Dettloff, Mary Anne Hoope, Patricia Kaufman, Chris tine Mocarski, Patricia Mulryan, Carol Pastore, Karen Ramey, Pa tricia Ryan and Diane Tate will teach English and orient young sters to school subjects on week nights and on Saturday mornings. Sister Mary Anne David, B.V.M., and Sister Mary Julia, B.V.M., will join them on Saturday mornings. Present Plan Initiated by Sister Xavier, a Maryknoll, and Reverend Leo Mahon, a diocesan clergyman, mem bers of the Cardinal's Committee for the Spanish Speaking in Chi cago, the movement is based on their textbook, La Familia de Dios (The Family of God.) Com piled by Sister Xavier and Father Mahon, the book presents Catholic dogma through the concept of a universal family. The motivation of the students participating in the summer lay- mission program was summed up in one girl's answer as to why she was going. I have been blessed with a Catholic education. I want to share it with others less for tunate. Nied, Mary O'Hare, Deirdre O'Mal ley, Mary O'Neil, Janis O'Reilly, Margaret Ostrander.

Phoenix Room Gets New Look Grades may suddenly soar to greater heights and to avoid any uncertain reasoning by unexpect- ant teachers, a novel explanation is offered. Judging from com ments of various members of the student body, studying is made less tedious by the new furnishings in the Phoenix Room. The cost of this recent refurnish ing project, approximately 3,000 including electrical costs, ceiling repairs, painting and new furniture, was financed by this year's Student Benefit Fund by choice of the stu dent body.
