SAC Speaks Up SAC speaks up to all those practical students who are still clinging tena ciously to their SAC dues. No club or organization will receive money from the treasury unless every member is in good standing with the SAC. Would be, has been, or present ar sonists, please stay away from the smoker. Your presence is undesirable to others who use the facilities, not to mention to those who don't use them your Instructors, the Dean, the Presi dent, the Alumnae, the Insurance com pany, the Fire department, and all those who would be sorry if Mundelein V were suddently devasted by fire. * * Many thanks to all the hostesses who assisted during the Open House for high school seniors. Just think how elated you would have been 1? 2? 3? 4? years ago to see college life in full swing without getting the blow by blow description of a biased collegian. * * . . . For the boys in Korea ... for Senior Comprehensives ... for conver sions . . . The rosary, potent in itself as a weapon for peace, can become still more potent when two or three are gathered together in My name. The College Family Rosary, co-spon sored by NFCCS and the Club Coordi nation board, has made its mark on the Dean's board. Read the weekly in tention pray the College Rosary. As an individual during lunch hour or as a club member at the club's ap pointed rosary time, you can join the College Family. If you are a member of a club, consult your president for the specified day and time your voice is needed to swell the chorus of prayer in the Chapel. If you are a Mundelein student we'll see you in the Chapel as a vital member of the College Family Rosary. * * Despite our frequent use of and famil iarity with the letters NSA, a great many of us have a distorted under standing of their meaning. SAC as sembly is designated to give every student the opportunity to obtain vi tal information about this organiza tion. Mundelein (every Mundelein girl) is a charter member of NSA. Every intelligent member of an or ganization knows what the organi zation stands for or finds out. TV4tis Sweeps Nation, Spares SPCNTO Among those sects which effortlessly grow out of society; those who plan trips to Florida every winter and those who really go; those who are of the army and those who zvish they were; those who talk about their double sclerosis and those who wonder about those who talk; there has biulded g, new and more pre tentious forte for the preservation of hu man conversation those ivho have tele vision and those who are glad they do not have it. As a member of the latter group, with a lighted living room, congenial family relations, and 20-20 vision, I find the TV ads have done little to weaken my resis tance. Propaganda Fails Such subtle propaganda as: Did you ever feel as if you were alone in a crowd? A modern wallflozver painting of Dumb Dora? A blundering stuttering candidate for Clara Laine's Friendship center? leaves me unmoved. Quite frankly, no . . . and our family did not even hove a Television Christ mas They can pick me out in a minute t I have no dilated pupils to display, no suit cases under my eyes, and, aboi'e all, I have been classified as a tech. (/ have my assignments done.) Do I know what I'm missing of the finer things in life the things that really count? Exciting, but blurry (and not too phony) wrestling matches, nondescript Rudolph Valentino relics with indecipher able captions, baseball games played in the midst of ferocious snow storms, and a veritable host of slap-stick artists who are rapidly depleting the nation's store of seltzer water provide but a few of the vacuums in my life. Even my friends who at first acquired palsy from vicwifig channel two, nozv have lost their hearing. TVers Stand Out These 'women of property have a cer tain distinguished air about them. Some times it's curvature of the spine from peering over too many peoples' shoulders, or the telescopic squint of those who find themselves in the back row arm chair night after night. So, as the last posse rides into tlte setting sun, I'll prepare for the first meeting of the Chicago clxapter of the Society for the Prevention of .Cruelty to Non-Television Ozvncrs. High Schools Send Debaters To Tournament The Catholic High School Debate tournament, sponsored annually by Mun delein college and Loyola university, will be held for the fourth consecutive year at Mundelein on Saturday, Feb. 24.
