N IXON AT LOYOLA Cal Politics Reach L.U. Mr. Riehard Nixon, former Vice President of the United States, will address the Loyola student body on Friday, May 25, in St. Robert’s Hall at 11 o’clock. Mr. Nixon will be introduced to the students by Fr. President, and will deliver a prepared speech covering a few of the issues of the California guber¬ natorial race, and will briefly out¬ line his political platform. In his talk, Nixon will attack the “bloated Brown budget” which has increased the state’s indebted¬ ness from $900 million when Gov¬ ernor Brown took office to $4.2 bil¬ lion at the present time. He will also speak about the rapidly ris¬ ing crime rate which has been steadily increasing at the rate of three times the gain in California’s population, and will condemn the “irresponsible financing of the Squaw Valley Project for the Win¬ ter Olympic s.” Following his speech, the Republican candidate for governor will be open to ques¬ tions from the students and fac¬ ulty. Mr. Nixon is currently barn¬ storming the Southern California area in his campaign. The climax will take place on June 5, when the gubernatorial primaries will be held, and Nixon will compete with Joseph Shell, Republican minority leader in the State Legislature for the Republican nomination for gov¬ ernor, If nominated, Nixon will then run against Edmund G. Brown for the governorship. However, many Republicans have great con fidence in Nixon’s nomination since he has never lost an election in California (he carried Califor¬ nia in the Presidential election) To back up this confidence, a present Gallup poll shows Nixon leading both Brown and Shell in popularity. Dennis Riley, ASLU President in conjunction with Ben Aranda of the Young Republicans Club, has arranged this visit of Mr. Nixon’s through Mr. Louis Quinn, former counselor to Fr. President and now the assistant finance chairman on Nixon’s campaign staff.

Somewhere among the group we call the alumni of Loy¬ ola there is a man for each one of the ways a man is called upon to 'live out his life for the greater glory of God. Some where there is a man to face students on the first day of fall or to wait patiently for winter rains to water young trees. Somewhere there is a man to de-^ Monica Site Of Serenade Two great things are happen¬ ing on June 8. Finals will end at 5; the twenty-second annual Sum¬ mer Serenade sponsored by Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity will be¬ gin at (9)?. The site of this year’s gala affair will be the beau tif ul Deauville Club in Santa Monica. The twisting sounds of (the Vance Robert’s Orchestra will provide the background for all Loyolans wishing to forget exam week blues. Vance Roberts and his orchestra were very well received at last year’s Serenade and have been featured at other past University dances. The Deauville Club, site of last year’s Summer Serenade, will pro¬ vide a perfect site for the dance. The spacious beach hotel and club has seating and dancing space for 1000. Free parking is available for 1100 cars. Bids will shortly go on sale in the Student Center and the Book¬ store. liver a new life on the dawn of a spring day or plead a case on a hot summer day in court. It would be strange indeed, not to find among Loyolans men to kneel at the al¬ tar of God and to offer up the work of all Loyolans in all sea¬ sons. This year five Loyolans will stand before the bishop, lift up their hands in the gesture of a beggar, and receive the scented oil of the priesthood. They are men for all seasons. Missing Classes Sometime in the late forties a tight faced student raced his Mer¬ cury sedan down the long Palm tree approach to Loyola Univer¬ sity in the always courageous at¬ tempt to make an 8 o’clock class. Frequently enough during the four years the class would be missed and Tenny Wright re¬ signed himself to a half hour of the Lair’s coffee, bridge, and dixie land. Well known among the K. C’s, the Sodality, and Frank Sul¬ livan’s classes, Tenny became the president of the Senior Class be¬ fore he graduated in 1950. He left the many friends he had made and became a Jesuit. During the same time one Ger¬ ry Phelan came to Del Rey from the world. Venezuela gave him birth and the U.S. Infantry sent; him to Europe before Gerry found a home among the boarders on the hill. He was a natural for Fr Benecke’s International Relations Club because he spoke French on the handball courts, German at the gay German Club functions Italian to the Chinese servers at the boarders dining hall, and his own brand of the international language at the Curve Inn. But there was a brand of Latin taught at Los Gatos which had a mystify¬ ing attraction to Gerry and this is where he matriculated after grad¬ uation. Father Phelan in his true international character will be or¬ dained in Innsbruck, Austria on July 26. Leather Jacket William Breault came from a racing town, Saratoga Springs. Perhaps it was a coincidence but soon after Hollywood Park was built Bill landed in Inglewood, and he didn’t feel safe on any¬ thing except a motorcycle. After racing up and down Manchester between classes at Inglewood High he increased the pace with the Air Force. When things calmed down he divided his time between his motor, ice skating, running a business, and walking around the campus at Loyola. When he met (Continued on Page 2) Deserving seniors are nominated by the Student Body during elec¬ tions and the winner is chosen by a board comprised of the faculty and the ASLU President.
