that the decisive issues and considerations of the campaign are to be accusations of irresponsibility, bigotry, racism, warmongering, political hypocrisy, personal dishonesty, guilt by association, extremism, and the like. These baser issues are tending to obscure what should be a meaningful choice, and cire perverting it into a superficial, or at best emotional, choice between two controversial men, Lyndon Johnson and Barry Goldwater. This emphasis makes it increasingly dif­ ficult for any intelligent voter to msike a choice on the basis of political considerations, but rather forces him to choose between a sometime-conservative lib­ eral ("the biggest faker in the United States") and a careless and impulsive, if sincere, conservative ("the stench of fascism is in the air"). It is a rather sordid choice between a political opportunist and an extreme conservative, rather than the sophisticated political choice it might have been in a Kennedy-Goldwater battle. Essentially, it is the tone that is wrong this year. For some reason, both parties have lapsed into some­ times hysterical personal attacks on the candidates of the other party, and they are dragging themselves Base Over Basics and the American electorate into a quagmire of neg­ ativism, charges and countercharges that help noth­ ing, clarify nothing, and hurt all concerned. OLUiMES HA\nE BEEN WRITTEN Concerning the This is not to say that the issue of political phi­ tragic loss of President Kennedy, both to the losophy does not play a role, as it certainly does in Vnation and to the world. As the Christian Science the South, the Northeast, the Midwest and the West, Monitor pointed out last December, one of the most but rather that it has been obscured by less sophisti­ tragic effects of the loss of this man, and all he sym­ cated and relevant considerations. Thus the confusion bolized, was that the election of 1964 is prevented which has taken all the flavor out of this election from offering a mature and thoughtful political year and left only the husks of labels and hasty judg­ dialogue between the liberal and conservative posi­ ments. The voter to be pitied is the Northern Negro, tions.

These As the election campaign of 1964 evolves, it has voters dare not state their convictions, because in this become increasingly obvious that political philosophy election so many are voting emotionally and by blocs, has become a secondary issue in the campaign, and and so few as intelligent individuals. — B.

The Scholastic cated their creativity to a frustrating and sometimes sporadic product. Even under that discouraging at­ titude which sometimes seems almost distrustful, the Leprechaun has constantly improved. As good as it is now, one cannot help but think of how fine Leprechaun could be if it only had some little en­ couragement! But there has been no encouragement; yet there is a certain, inevitable amount of control. The Leprechaun needs University approval if it is to be sold or distributed on campus. This is the same kind of control that is exercised (rightly enough) on the campus publications which the University does sanc­ tion. Again, it is not as though the Leprechaun has failed to prove itself; the last issue was good enough to be published from any campus in the coimtry. Whether the humor is of good quality or not, the time when a negative attitude toward creativity and constructive criticism could be regarded as sensible is long past. Our reputation, though, seems to imply opposition to our desired "progressive" image; one of the gentlemen who sold the Leprechaun last week reports that a freshman asked him: "Will they really let you write this kind of stuff?" Yes, they do. But Mirth or Mold if ive are to escape such an uncomfortable reputation, positive action is our most sensible recourse.

This year it was decided that the forty-three members of the Blue Circle would provide the cen­ tralization and organization needed.

HE COUNCIL for the International T Lay Apostolate (CILA) was bom on the Notre Dame campus in the spring semester of 1961. It is a stu­ dent organization concerned with the role of Catholic university students in today's world. It wants to help its members understand some of the com­ plexities of this world, some of their responsibilities, and some of their op­ portunities. It stands on the princi­ ples of two great encyclicals of Pope John XXni: Mater et Magistra, and Pacem in Terns. CILA believes it can contribute to this end by a program of education, personal formation, and service. Some of its service projects eire on the campus, some in South Bend, others in summer work in the United States, in Mexico and in Peru. This article concerns itself with CIIA's Peru and Mexico projects of this last summer.

ILA sent seventeen students to C Mexico and all of us lived in the same town, Tacambaro, and worked on the same project. Tacambaro is a rural town west of Mexico City in the mountains, more than a mile high. It has ten thousemd people of aU classes. We lived and ate most of our meals with Mexican middle-clciss families during the eight weeks that we were there. At Tacambaro, the project was coordinated by a young Mexican priest, who earlier had selected the families for whom we were to build houses. When we arrived in town, we were amazed by the friendliness of all the townspeople. We couldn't even pass someone on the street without saying "Buenos dias" to them. If we didn't they would just repeat it until we did. With our problems of communica­ tion, people were very understanding, and this huge reserve of courtesy and friendliness never failed to touch us deeply. We worked in a slum area in the town. The town rests on a shelf on the slope of a small mountain, and the slum was far down the slope. We planned and built three duplexes, di­ viding ourselves into small teams, all working within a hundred yards of each other. The houses were built on small lots that were steeply pitched. Often at the foot of these small lots was The Scholastic the refuse and dung of several years that formed the background to their Peruvian homes, conducting English accumulation, a breeding place for picture. classes, supervising youth centers, dis­ disease.

The extremes of wealth were best illustrated to me by the fact that the family I stayed with bought a new 1964 Chevrolet, worth $6,000 in Mexico, while one of the families for whom we built a house was subsisting on next to nothing so that they could save $14 for a school uniform for their daughter.

Mr. Robert HaUer writes of the impoH of two of tlie recent movie ckaractenzatiotis of Richard Burton. Mr. BiU Krier, our feature editor, extends the study of Burton into an exami7iation of his technique and his failings as seen in Hamlet.

In the same way, how­ ever, the conflicts thus engendered often give rise to qualities that can­ not resolve our contradictions but do compensate for them. Becket and The Night of tlie Iguana hold such com­ pensation, particularly in the charac­ ters portrayed by Richard Burton, and with the stirring excellence of both productions, either could become the best film of the year. The enigma that surroimds Thomas Becket, Chancellor to England's King Henry n and martjred Archbishop of Canterbury, lies in the imknown forces that impelled him to shift his allegiance from State to Church. French playwright Jean Anouilh ex- plciined this significant change by casting his Thomas Becket in the mold of a modem man caught up by a fate that gave his life an essenticd bishop he shatters Becket's equa­ easy to buy You like this . . . so I purpose. nimity. slwll take up tlie miter again, and Prior to his elevation as Arch­ tlie golden cope, and the great bishop, Anouilh's Thomas is portrayed / felt for tJie first time that I was silver cross, and I shall go back and (as he was in fact) as the rakishly being entrusted with something, fight with the weapons it has cynical confidant of his Norman king. tJiafs all — tJiere in tliat empty pleased You to give me.

The Archbishop's fate of an individual confrontation with God and man is just as lonely, but enacted with an admirable self-control.

T AST \VEEK against Wisconsin two •'-' relatively inexperienced players came into their own — John Huarte and Jack Snow. Against the Badgers Huarte com­ pleted 15 of 24 passes for 270 yards. Four more of these should have been caught. The senior quarterback called 90% of the plays and consistently mounted a diverse attack. His passing complemented the rushes of Bill Wol- ski and Joe Kantor, who combined for 123 yards. Said Parseghian, "John passed well against Wisconsin, ex­ tremely well considering the bad weather. He called a good game and hit his receivers when it counted — third down and short yardage." Huarte's first touchdown pass to Jack Snow exemplified his ability to take advcintage of an opportunity. When Wisconsin safety and co-cap­ tain Ron Frain was injured, Badger coach Milt Bruhn sent in an inexperi­ enced replacement. Huarte noticed this and on the next play utilized it. He sent three receivers into the safety's zone. The result: six points for Notre Dame. Why did Huarte perform so well against Wisconsin? The answer is the infiuence of Ara Parseghian. Par­ seghian is known for many things — his perfectionist attitude, his fanatical conditioning program, his excellent re­ cruiting system — but in one area he has a unique talent: developing quar­ terbacks. At Northwestern, Parseghian had two Ail-American quarterbacks, Dick Thornton and Tommy Myers.
