MURAL STARS OPPOSE
BRUINS IN 'TAG' GAME
Loyola and UCLA have a foot¬
ball date on Friday the 13th. Be¬
fore rushing to the Coliseum to
buy tickets, let us remind you that
the contest is the annual “tag”
game between the two schools.
Thus the game won't take place;
in the shadow of the Coliseum’s
clock but on UCLA’s Spaulding
Field,
The contest opposes the best in¬
tramural football players from
both schools in a 9-man version of
the sport, and is now in its fourth
year.
The mural Bruins hold a 2-1 edge
in the Ivy Club series, which oddly
enough has seen three shutouts.
UCLA breezed in 1958, winning
19-0; Loyola won in 1959, 14-0 and
the Bruins rumbled to a 6-0 win in
the bruising 1960 game.
The clash climaxes UCLA’s
Men’s Week festivities and usually
attracts a pretty good crowd. UCLA
sororities will serve as hostesses,
and Loyola has also invited our
lovely allies from Mount St. Mary’s.
Tom Bouchard, Intramural di¬
rector, and Dan Mooney, the free-
running Phi-Sig tailback, chose the
Lion squad.
Athletes Picked
From the Champion Phi-Sigs the
pair selected, end Tom Gallagher,
the fastest man in ’murals, block¬
ing back Larry Longo, end — bas¬
ketball player, Jim Senske, defen¬
sive back Scott Grevemberg, center
Frank Leonetti, and Mooney. Dan,
who will not only quarterback the
team, but will serve as captain also,
is probably the best running back
on the Hill-top campus. Another
Phi-Sig, talented John Hejlik, was
chosen, but he suffered a broken
hand in the early intramural scrim¬
mage and will be unable to play.
From the Scrubs, who have two
league and ’mural championships
in the past two years, Dan and
Tom selected Dick Phillips, the
very quick defensive end, defensive

Candidate Tells
Election Plans
This is the first of several
articles on Dr. William Fitz¬
gerald, Congressional candi¬
date for the SOth District of
the State of California.
By CHARLIE KUNZ
News Editor
Loyola University’s Associate
Professor of Political Science, Dr.
William Fitzgerald has announced
his candidacy for Congressman of
the 30th Congressional District of
the State of California. Being an
authority on politics and having
had a great amount of previous ex¬
perience, Dr. Fitzgerald is highly
qualified for this office.
Planks of Platform
Three main planks constitute the
body of Dr. Fitzgerald’s platform.
The first is the problem of restor¬
ing the central city. He proposes
government action to preserve
metropolitan centers, aid to mass
rapid transit, research in the field
of air and water pollution and,
most important, the creation of the
cabinet of the Department of Ur¬
ban Affairs. The second proposal
on his agenda concerns the field
of civil rights, namely, the ful¬
fillment of the Constitutional
promises of the post civil war
amendments, 13, 14 and 15. Here
he advocates additional legislation
in the field of voting privileges,
the creation of the Federal Affairs
Employment and Practices Commis¬
sion, and modification of the seni¬
ority system of committee assign¬
ments. The third plank of his plat¬
form hinges on the field of for¬
eign relations, pacifically, meeting
the Communist challenge in an in¬
tellectual and effective fashion.
The Doctor suggests full support
to Presidential leadership in ful¬
filling the obligations to the people
of West Berlin and other nations
of the free world. This means the
backing of an ample and carefully
administered Foreign Aid Program
and the development of conven¬
tional arms to avoid the necessity

Kelly Announces HC Theme
Recalls "Roaring Twenties”
Loyola's 35th annual Homecoming, to be climaxed during the week of Nov. 21-22,
was formally announced today by chairman John Kelly. With “Roaring Twenties" as
its theme, this year's festivity will include such highlights as: Co-Ed Day (Dec. 1st.)
featuring local college cuties costumed in styles of the Vamp Era; the Parade itself,
extending from Biff’s Restaurant
I to the Loyola Theater; and the
traditional float building, this year,
in an atmosphere reminicent of
the ‘Terrible Twenties.’ The floats
themselves will depict daring es¬
capades by A1 Capone, gangland
murders by Bugsy Seigle, coura¬
geous defense of the law by Elliot
Ness, and usual campus ‘Prohibi¬
tion’ by Fr. Kilp.
Social chairman Steve Poche set

conclusion of Homecoming week
as Loyolans and their dates will
dance to a 16 piece orchestras fea¬
turing members of the famed Ray
Coniff orchestras and chorus.
After lengthy discussion with
such lovely representatives as
Queen’s J. Labozetta and Mary-
mount’s Pam Kelly, publicity chair¬
man Pat Shrieve announced that
straw hats and flashy buttons will
be sold to help foster the gala spir¬
it of the Twenties. On additional
advice from Mount Rep. Danny
Hoffman, Shrieve said that the sale
of garters would be written off as
a “poor risk.”
On Oct. 18, Tom Keese and his
panel of experts begin interviewing
campus lovelies, screening each
