DOUBLE TROUBLE: Vague plans are now in the wind about having two Mardi Gras dances so that SBP John Keegan can fulfill his campaign promise assuring Vol.102 No. 5 a ball ticket to everyone who wanted to go. We hope that this goes no fui-ther than OCTOBER 28, 1960 the planning stage. Last year 200 students sold at least ten chance books and thereby guaranteed themselves a ticket to the dance. The $10,000 thus earned also accounted I for more than a fourth of the Mardi Gras income. With two dances, the major in­ centive of a guaranteed ticket will disappear and so might a substantial portion of the $10,000. We also wonder if a second dance could even draw the 400-or-so stu­ Fminded 1867 dents that would be needed to make it worthwhile. In the recent ticket sales for the upcoming campus-wide dance, the committee went through almost the entire list of 1,700 applicants to dispose of -5.50 bids. Yet tsvo Mardi Gras Balls would require over 1,200 sales to prevent economic ruin. In the best interest of the Mardi Gras fund we feel that Student Government wall just have to bear the moans and groans of the frustrated few.

•.; c^'^^vg DO NOTHING: In this week's "Escape" we featui-e an elaboration upon the plat­ edrtoMn-iiihlefV form of the "Do Nothings" that swept Walsh Hall in the election of two weeks ago XHARLES RIKK (SCHOLASTIC, Oct. 14). Although there are some humorous additions to their original manifesto, the core of the "Escape" is a serious declai-ation of student government policy. But there are several local factors that make even the original manifesto printable as a humorous piece. The first is the historical fact that few of the ad­ assbdaie ecBtor herents of such a creed have been as outspoken or had the courage to express such a ROY RUBEll sensible position. A second incongruity is added when we consider that few campus ~i: >;- elections have been characterized by a dispute over real issues. By issue is suggested a wide divergence of principles which results in a conflict of concrete proposals and \mms cdifor' >'-;:"~'-' recommended activities. With the "Do Nothings," the principle was limited govern­ THOMAS WEIsi ment; no activities were to be planned unless there was a serious need. Consequently there were no promises of hall mixers, homecoming decorations, etc. While THE SCHOLASTIC does not support similar programs for underclassmen (some people maintain that freshmen need mixers) the same principles of limited government and avoidance of useless activity certainly apply. moMASsyuiVAN-

With the publication last week of the Puerto Rican hierai'chy's pastoral letter, the seriousness of the reli­ gious issue in the 1960 campaign was effectively dem­ onstrated. The participatoi's in the Catholic-Protestant dialogue concex-ning pluralism no longer have to wi-ap themselves in hypothetical problems, but can avail themselves of a concrete American situation illustrating the complex relationship between church and govern­ ment. It is hoped that interest in these problems will inci-ease at the University; in particular, encourage­ ment must be given to the efforts of the NFCCS to­ wards a deeper probing of this issue which forms one of the aspects of their national topic this year. Plural­ ism, The campus NFCCS is engaged now in planning a summer seminar of national religious thinkers and students, whose focus will be the problems of plural­ ism.

whose interests are greater than the sole attainment of a diploma. And, in an­ swer to those questioning people who think that such aims ape the already smoothly functioning college curricultiin, it should be pointed out that the specific focus of NFCCS is, and must be, the significant contemporary issues that confront the world of today. This will not involve duplication since the very %m? fact that they are so immediate makes it almost impossible to present these is­ sues in their total scope, if at all, in the classroom. Events usually outstrip the ability of the curriculum to keep tip with them. An answer to the second question can be best explained in terms of this stu­ dent organization's name — the Na­ tional Fedei-ation of Catholic College Students — with the emphasis being placed upon the word Catholic. The Federation's approach to all phases of its progi-ams and activities is strictly from a Catholic viewpoint and not in­ tended to be of a secular nature. Of course, this does not mean that NFCCS segregates itself from the pluralistic society they exist in, instead, it simply illustrates that the purpose of the Na­ tional Federation of Catholic College Students is one of advancing Catholic ideals and morals in an already too secular society. And the means to ac­ complish this goal is to produce Catholic college students who are competent and vocal, those who can penetrate the com­ plexities of real issues and articulate them effectively. Thus, by the very na­ ture of our work, no other existing stu­ dent organization can ever come close to accomplishing our objectives. In conclusion, all should be aware of the fact that NFCCS is not a coordi­ nating agency for social events nor is NFCCS a super-enlarged sodality. On the contraiy, the Federation is a mature, by DAVID A. OFFUTT responsible organization dedicated to the proposition that students have an obli­ gation to respond intelligently to the oVE R FIVE HUNDRED Catholic college students from every section of the countiy challenges of the Twentieth Century. convened in Louisville, Kentucky for the Seventeenth National Congress of the Na- ^ tional Federation of Catholic College Students held from August 29 to September 3, " 196t.

KIE W IDEAS bring change to the old commission system formerly employed The most notable characteristic of the Congress was the serious, intelligent by NFCCS to be of service to campus attitude of the attending delegates who, surrounded by presidential election and other clubs and other campus organizations. headline stories, remained calm enough to formulate plans for NFCCS sponsored According to the old commission concept activities which will better the educational communities of America. Throughout there were ten national commissions the long meetings which began at 9:00 a.m. and sometimes lasted until 3:30 a.m. the seated at ten different Catholic colleges next morning, these delegates demonstrated a maturity of decision and responsibility. located throughout the United States. 9i« The purpose of the National Federation of Catholic College Students is to assist These commissions were to collect and in the educational community's pursuit of tx-uth and acquisition of knowledge.

I 16 The Scholastic Certain artists, rare though they be, simply divorce themselves from the end­ less conversation of dilettantes and au- thorities-on-music (whose closest asso* ciation with the subject was a high school course in Physics in which the word Harmonics was mentioned) by playing a concert which defies adverse criticism. Such an artist is Hans Richter- Haaser, whose recital at Saint Mary's on Tuesday, October 18 was a lesson for musicians and concert-goers alike in what this music is all about. Seldom do we find a man whose tech­ nique and communicative ability are so well integrated that neither can be con­ sidered without the other. There is no question of Eichter-Haaser's technique, but it is nearly impossible to get at. When he plays, one can only hear what he is playing; to consider how he is playing it means to ignore what he is saying in his interpretation (if the how is considered as an isolated entity) and this is impossible without losing the idea of the pianist's art: a total comprehen­ sion and command of every element of a piece of music, the relationship be­ tween these elements, and an ability to integrate them in such a way that they become a unity, inseparable facets of the same diamond. This approach to music requires a cer­ tain reserve on the part of the artist whereby he is aloof enough from the music he is performing to know intel­ lectually exactly what he is doing with it and how he is doing it; he cannot, in short, lose himself in the music or he JOHN aUVER: loses this total command. This reserve is called the aesthetic distance. When a young artist sets out to acquire this kind of com­ prehension, more often than not he loses the one thing that is the main thing—^feeling for the music he is playing, and the complete conviction of that feeling which inspires him to capture an audience through it. The more analytical an aiiist becomes in approaching a work of art, the more distant he tends to become from the excitement (whether Isrrical or passionate, intellectual or emotional) peculiar to that par­ ticular work. Eichter-Haaser is hardly a young artist. Throughout Tuesday evening's program he maintained an aesthetic distance, which was remarkable even for such a great artist. He demonstrated this most graphically at those times when he was interrupted (first by the fans in the heating system, and often thereafter by the unspeakable rudeness of an opened or closed door in the back of the audi­ torium) ; one was immediately aware that the pianist rec­ ognized these sounds and was perhaps annoyed by them, yet his delivery continued without a flaw, either in dramatic build or technical precision. Yet even in view of all this intellectual command and disciplined aloofness, Eichter- Haaser quite unashamedly felt every note of the music he played and communicated every particle of that feeling. He began with Novelette in F major. Opus 21, No. 1 by Eobert Schumann, certainly a pleasant way to open, and played it the way he played everything: drawing everything out of the music that is in it to begin with, and adding LARGE nothing that isn't there. The piece is lightweight by nature and it is a com­ pliment to Eichter-Haaser's intelligence that he played it exactly for what it is, without vulgarizing it in an attempt to make something out of it.

Then, and altogether too quickly, the innovation of the day becomes the cliche of tomorrow. No other art foi-m remains subject to so i-apid a deterioration of the level of ac­ ceptance. During its short but chaotic life jazz 9 has, however, never been forced to go anywhere it didn't feel like going. Its changes have all sprung from the 'nat­ ural' wealth any new music draws from, namely, the vast Western tradition, coupled with the demands peculiar to the day and the environment and per­ sonality of the process' now prime fount: the rare musician capable of real creation. There aren't many finn stand­ ards in this mediimi of expression which ^ has already passed through three major stages of development in less than fifty years. The work initiated by the unprepos­ sessing foursome of Thelonius Monk, piano, Kenny Clarke, drums, Dizzy Gil­ lespie, trumpet, and Charlie Parker, alto sax, at the outbreak of the Second World War, ushered in the most impoi-tant third stage which b^an to take root only^ some five years later. In brief, the group," meeting at Minton's play house in Har­ lem virtually every night in 1942, had decided to do something about one of the more contestable foundation stones of jazz, the repertory. Tired of having to impi'ovise on themes that were all too often musically threadbare, these musi­ cians had the idea of keeping only the general outline and of making them over by boldly paraphrasing the melodies and revising the harmonies, either in whole— or in part. Every man in this group was^ responsible for a certain number of in­ novations that were synthesized only by a joint effort. If the boldness of Monk's harmonies stimulated his partners, then no less was the rhji^hmic influences of the imaginative Kenny Clarke a factor. The solo choruses of Gillespie and the magnificent Parker staggered even the most open of the regular customers. The tag "bebop" appeared and was about as

26 The Scholastic Tomorrow afternoon at 1:30 EDT, the Fighting Irish will face unbeaten, untied Navy in Philadelphia Stadium. The Irish will be seeking their second win of the season against four losses, 11^ while Navy will be gunning for its sev- ^,enth straight. The Notre Dame team lost a close, hard-fought battle with Northwestern, 7-6, while the Middies routed Pennsyl­ vania, 27-0. The Navy's "Mr. Inside and Mr. Out­ side" combination of halfback Joe Bel- lino and fullback Joe Matalavage, the Middies' captain, has been the spark- % plug of the Navy offense all season. ^ Bellino, a prime AU-American con­ tender, scored on runs of one and 26 yards against Penn to nin his season scoring total to 68 points, more than any player in modem Navy history.

AN UNSUNG LINEMAN Notre Dame is lucky to have a lineman of Nick Buoniconti's calibre. Each week Nick peirforms his job without the acclamation that many of the other players receive and last Saturday he came through with another fine de­ fensive game. Buoniconti, who now leads the team in tackles with 39, plays much like departed All-American Al Ecuyer. Like Ecuyer, he gets a very quick "jump" on the ball and this enables him to shoot through before the opposing linemen can get set for blocks. If the play is going around end, Buoniconti has the speed to hit the runner before he can get into the Notre Dame secondary. Three sophomores also figured prominently in the Irish forward wall defense. Guard Nick DePola continued to look like a fine prospect as he led the Kuharichmen with eleven tackles. Ends Brian Boolac and Jim Sherlock contributed seven and six tackles respectively to the Irish cause. The few mistakes that these two did make can be attributed to the fact that neither has played extensively this season.

IRISH STARS IN THE PRO RANKS It is with pride that you can turn on your television set on a Sunday afternoon and watch ex-Notre Dame players dominate the pro football contests. Last Sunday, on whatever chaimel you might have turned to, there was a Notre Dame graduate leading his team to victory. The Washington Bedskin game was the first one I watched and it was Ralph Guglielmi's pin­ point passing that enabled his team to tie the Steelers. After watching Gug­ lielmi's performance, I turned to the Green Bay-San Francisco contest. It should have been called Paul Homung Day because he took over the league lead in scoring with 23 of Green Bay's 41 points. Monty Stickles looked big and fast for the Foi-ty-Ninei-s and he made a fine catch right before the game ended. Then, a change of channels again! This time it was Boston against Denver-. And quarterbacking for Denver was none other than Frank Trip- ucka; he ended up throwing three touchdown passes. My only regret was that I didn't see Jim Martin's field goals of 52, 51 and 40 yards.

How­ ever, to commit yourselves to the artistic merit of your covers as representing the Q .joo^'^.^jao'Tt^ staff's fine hopes was a grave mistake. If it is possible to achieve "art" on a SCHOLASTIC cover, I fear that Mr. Luczak has not yet approached it, and in fact has fallen considerably below the

•/•\ quality of covers in past years. All art must be charged with meaning, and "non-objective" art emphasizes meaning beyond discursive interpretation as the strength of its merit. To try to pass off meaninglessness as something esoteric reminds us of the fable of the king's ij invisible suit of clothes which none but the very wise could see. The first two SCHOLASTIC covers this year were mean­ ingless. The other two were trite. When the Machine becomes the archetype for De­ mocracy in America, art is chaos. Here human values are obviously topsy-turvy. SCHOLASTIC covers by nature can never hope for any moi-e than a supei-ficial de­ gree of art, so please, let's be sensible about them in the future.
