THE SKYSCRAPER REFLECTIONS STUDENTS PLAY ON DIOCESAN TEAMS (Continued from Page 1, Column 3) JUSTINE Feely is also a junior, a co- editor of the Skyscraper, and vice- president of the Press Club. She is usually quite dignified and unruffled, but now and then term papers and examinations cause her to wear the tragic air of a martyred princess. Society stories are her forte, and for this reason she has been chosen as one of the members of the Junior Prom committee. Miss Feely has de cided upon English as her major, and in tends to teach or to do journalistic work after graduation. She is secretary of Eta Phi Alpha and a pledge of the Stylus club. OUR happy-go-lucky news editor. Frances Davidson, is from St. Mary's high school. She, too, is major ing in journalism, but with special em phasis on the advertising angle. She was elected manager of the soccer team this year, and is a devotee of all sports. Miss Davidson was elected secretary-treasurer of the Press Club, treasurer of the so dality, and she is a member of the Philo sophy club. Her hobbies are golf and the collection of all kinds of uncommon verbs and adjectives which she fits expertly in to her vocabulary to the vast enjoyment of her friends. WE have a classics major in our midst in the person of Virginia Woods, our make-up editor. Miss Woods, a sophomore, is ever busy, for what with being vice-president of the Classical club, secretary of the Debating club, chairman of the Catholic literature committee, ed itor of the Ciscora News, a member of both Press and Stylus clubs, and an ar dent sodalist, she has much to do. Yet, Virginia is such a tranquil sort of person she never looks hurried. She goes about her work quietly and gets it done so well as to have merited a straight A report last quarter. Her hobby is collecting china dogs. A TALL slender girl with an engag ing smile that is Irene Lavin, ath letics editor of the Skyscraper. Whatever she does, she does well, whether it is basketball, swimming, study, or news- writing. She holds the presidency of both the Chemistry and Terrapin clubs; is secretary of the sodality, and is a mem ber of the W. A. A., Press club, and Mendelian society. Miss Lavin is major ing in botany. ANN Lally, our feature editor, gets such vast amounts of work done that she makes some of the other editors feel decidedly humble. She is carrying a double major, art and English, and is do ing excellent work in both. Ann is tall and statuesque, and has a priceless sense of humor. She is a member of the Stylus club, the Press club, and the Glee club, and is secretary of the Art club. Her verses appear frequently in the Clepsy dra, and in Quest. Her hobby is col lecting sketches from magazines. EFFICIENT to her finger tips that is a perfect description of Helen Ryan, circulation manager of the Sky scraper. She is a graduate of the Los Angeles Catholic Girls high school and has chosen Spanish in which to major at Mundelein. Miss Ryan loves to travel. She is usually on the Honor Roll, is a member of the Terrapin club, and is pro gram chairman of the Press club. She confesses that her pet peeve is bridge she always disagrees with her partner Mundelein students are employing their athletic ability to further a diocesan movement, the Catholic Youth Organiza tion. A recent check-up revealed that of the eight divisions in the girl's basketball league of the C. Y. O., five include Mun delein students. St. Margaret Mary's parish team is leading the North Shore section with four victories. Marion Siffermann and Pauline Duzeski are partly responsible for its standing. St. Ignatius parish has three teams competing. Team 2, with Leona Mur phy, Harriet McDermott, and Winnifred Greene is in second place. Mary Rita Murphy, Pauline Madison, and Margaret Mahoney play with team I. which has won one and lost three games. Team 3 claims Loretta Brady. A game at St. Ignatius must look like a Mundelein civil war. St. Jerome's, also of the North Shore section, has won two games and lost two. Its squad includes Mary Louise Seitz, Jane Flick, and Betty Jane Agnew. Mary Jane 'fully, Mary Ann Walsh, and Helen Daly play on St. Columba's team in the South section. This group now holds second place, having lost but one of four games. St. Philip Neri's team with Helen Piper at guard position has lost one and won two. Lucy Crowley plays with the St. Maurice team in the South Central section. St. Agatha's Senior team in West Cen tral section has four Mundelein players, Mary and Alyce Lyon, Clementine Pa loney, and Irene Lavin. They have scored three victories which leaves them in first place. Blessed Sacrament is in third place in the same section with two games won and one lost. Rita Casey, Marjory Car roll, and Marie Lysaught are the main stays of this team. La Vergne Waindle plays with Our Lady Help of Christians' team in the West section. W.A.A. to Award Cup for Athletics The rivalry among the class teams will be greater than ever this year since the President has promised to provide a sil ver trophy to be awarded each year to the class winning the greatest number of the major sports games. The class may keep the trophy until the following year. The freshman and juniors tied for soccer honors this year, but there still remain basketball, volley ball, and baseball before the trophy will pass to its first proud possessors. The W. A. A. initiation of pledges will take place in February, Judging from the active preparations being made by various committees it will be a jolly af fair. A part of the initiation ceremony will be the presentation of W. A. A. pins to old and new members alike. NEW COURSES OPEN SECOND SEMESTER Home Economics Group Will Manage the Edgewater Beach (Continued from Page 1, Column 2) is of the utmost value because of the practical experience derived from it. The students who will take part in this unusual experiment are Isabel Alter, Anna Armato, Adelaide Brost, Mary Bcrgin.Morel Farmer, Katherine Flood, Rochelle Fox, Mae Frawley, Caroline Holland, Helen Horan, Marguerite Kull- man, Mary Frances Kenneally, Florence O'Shea, Audrey Lundmark, Mary Moore, Mary McCabe, Clementine Paloney, Madeline Pallucci, and Mary Ramker. Basketball Tournament Will Begin Next Month The freshmen, sophomores, and juniors will renew their contests when the inter- class basketball tournament begins early in February with the sophomores out to avenge the defeats they suffered at the hands of the freshmen and juniors in soc cer. The tournament is to be a round rob in; that is, each team will play every other team. Practice periods are every Wednesday at 3, and every Friday at 2 and 3. Alyce Lyon, Margaret McKeon, Paul ine Duzeski, and Mary Frances Lange of the management and coaching class are teaching the new basketball rules in the sports classes. Glee Club Visits Cardinal's Chapel (Continued from Page 1, Column 5) expressive of genuine enjoyment of the old-time carol singing which His Emin ence declared had not taken place in his hearing for seventeen years. When the carols were finished, the Cardinal came downstairs, told the sing ers how pleased he was, and invited them to see his tree and the Crib which nestled j beneath it. While they were ex claiming over the beauty of these, His Eminence showed them a gift he had re ceived from the Holy Father. It was a signed picture of His Holiness painted on ivory surmounted by a handsome sil ver frame. On their way to the Cardinal's chapel, the students passed through a large cor ridor hung with paintings of renowned members of the clergy and statues of the saints and of noted ecclesiastics, and through the gorgeous, velvet-hung throne room, but the chapel itself impressed them most of all. A genuine Van Dyck of the Cruci fixion hung above the altar, its dark tones enhanced by the brilliant poinsettias bank ed upon the alatr itself. The carved pews were lined with scarlet cushions, and on the walls were beautiful imported minia ture stations. Here a reverent silence descended upon the carolers as they knelt before the altar where at midnight a Prince of the Church would commemor ate the birthday of the Prince of Peace in Holy Mass. Students Attend Library Convention Valeria Sruibas and Helen Virginia Tompkins, students of library science, attended the meetings of the Catholic Li brary Association at Loyola University during the Christmas holidays. The final conference was held in the Mundelein Little Theatre on Wednesday morning, Dec. 28. When registration time comes around again, Mundelein students will find on the schedule a variety of subjects cover ing every field of their interests. Among the new courses to be intro duced are history of education and special methods, both of which will interest stu dents working for certificates. In philosophy, rational psychology and epistomology will follow general psy chology and logic, respectively. The Rev erend Arthur J. Kelly, S. )., will teach cosmology this semester instead of theo dicy. William H. Conley, M. B.

Order and accession will follow history of books and printing in the department of library science. Radio broadcasting, under the direction of Miss Katherine Roche of WGN, will be given. Genetics will be offered for juniors in the biology department, and on the same floor promising physicists may continue in the study of electricity, magnetism, and acoustics. Catherine L. McCorry, M. D. of the Cook County Hospital, will teach anatomy and physiology, both courses be ing required of physical education majors.

The English department will offer Anglo-Saxon, technique of poetry, the age of Romanticism, and technique of the drama; and news reporting will be offer ed for sophomores interested in journal ism. Discuss Marriage in Forum Lecture (Continued from Page 1, Column 4) understanding of the nature and aims of marriage, and counselled the students to prepare for it seriously. In conclusion, he declared that marriage is what the participants make it and that one may expect in that state the reasonable amount of happiness that human life supposes. Before preparing their special topics, the students interviewed Louis D. Moor- head, A. M., S. M., M. D., dean, profes sor, and head of the deaprtment of sur gery of the Loyola School of Medicine. Dr. Moorhead, an eminent scholar and a distinguished member of the medical profession, is a Doctor of Laws, a Fel low of the American College of Sur geons, a Chevalier of the Order of the Crown of Italy, and a Knight of St. Gregory.

SKYSCRAPINGS Now that the holidays are over and we are back in school, tossing madly about on a hectic sea of examination pa pers, we hear murmured sighs from our fellow students concerning the good times they had during that far-away Christmas vacation. 'Tis indeed sad at midyears to find the faces of our friends wreathed in gloom, and, therefore, this columnist will do her best to disperse the black clouds by telling you about some vacation news. Dorothy Boynton gave a festive holi day luncheon on Dec. 30. We hear that it was a great success and that Marie Karthal, Evangeline Cohan, Helen Web er, and Virginia Healy were among the guests. Two of our juniors spent their vaca tions away from Chicago this year. Mar ion Ryan abandoned our lake breezes, and went to the historical old city of Rich mond, Virginia. Virginia Meis took a trip westward and spent Christmas in Dubuque, Iowa, where she formerly lived. We thought it highly amusing to hear that Frances Mikkclson. a freshman, went to Stoughton, Wisconsin, for the holidays and left ail the Christmas presents for her relatives packed in a suitcase in her Park Ridge home. The long-suffering relatives received their gifts sometime about New Years. Virginia Woods, Catherine Manske, and Lenore Manning attended a per formance of Handel's Messiah given recently at Orchestra Hall by the Apollo Musical Club. Among the many Mundelein girls at tending the Immaculata High School alumnae formal at the Drake Hotel on Dec. 28, we saw: Loretta Jans, Cath erine Russell, Helen Weber, Grace Fab- bri, Frances Burke, and Mary Corby. The Inner Circle of Philosophers convened with great glee on Jan. 7, at Mary Toohey's home. After propound ing several deep thoughts to sustain them through the strain of coming exams, the intellectuals feasted sumptuously and re tired for meditation. o- - KNOW - YOUR- COLLEGE PUZZLE lt; gt;- lt; gt; Horizontal Initials of a Mundelein musi cal organization. 3.

SCHMEING TAKES INTERVIEWERS ON TOUR (Continued from Page 3, Column 5) We had come to the end of the inter view but happily we had also come to the beginning of a real adventure. Mr. Schmeing proposed to show us Loyola From his own realm, the chemistry de partment, to the biology laboratory where young men were earnestly attacking the many-jointed cray-fish, and to the physics rooms we followed him. Only when we had exhausted the numerous places devoted to science did we realize that after a strenuous day of teaching Mr. Schmeing had given us one hour and a half of his time. That fact is indicative of Mr. Schme- ing's generosity. His most evident char acteristic is kindliness. As we went forth to retrace our steps to our brightly-light ed Mundelein we felt the lilting satis faction of having spent a profitable after noon in the presence of a Christian gen tleman.
