(See Sports Section) Historian Views U.S. Policy Change See Cols 4 & 5 Slide Lecture Alan White Reports On "Catholicism In Africa" The First Friday Program which is held every First Friday during the academic year in Strub Memorial Thea¬ ter will feature Mr. Alan White, a Catholic lay missionary in Africa on March 2. Mr. White, who will speak at 11 a.m. will present a slide lecture on the progress Catholicism has FR. CALDWELL, SJ. made in Africa in recent years. The Chaplain's First Friday Program, initiated this year by Rev. Joseph R. Caldwell, S.J., Uni¬ versity Chaplain, is designed to take the place of what in recent years at Loyola were known as Chapel Talks. The main difference between these two programs is Goodfellows Elves To Invade Marina Hotel For St. Pat's Dance On Friday, March 13, the elves of Loyola University will invade the Airport Marina. Hotel, where the brothers of Tau Kappa Epsi¬ lon will present their annual St, Patrick's Day Dance. The dance, held in honor of the patron saint of Ireland, St. Patrick; should prove to be the highlight of the Lenten Season. The melodious sounds of the unknown mystery band will provide the romantic at¬ mosphere for the event. GOODFELLOWS £5 CENTS As in the past, Goodfellows, are on sale now and should prove to be the best ever. Goodfellows, if you haven't encountered’ them, are nasty sayings about you or your friends. Anyway, they are on sale in the Lair for only 25c a line. Find your friendly Goodfellow salesman and buy one. All sayings submitted must meet the approval of the Dean of Students before being accepted. During the bands numerous breaks the spirits of the Irish in attendance will be kept up with the singing of traditional Irish songs. that the talks are not held in the Chapel and they are not compul¬ sory for the student body. In spite of this the lectures have been well attended since their initiation. Speakers, usually from outside the University community, are in¬ vited to speak on a wide range of topics. So far this year the pro¬ gram has included Fr. Elwood Kie- ser, C.S.P., speaking on the Church in the Modern World, ancFFr. Pet¬ er Вёагпап, speaking on the New Liturgy in the Parish. Scheduled for Friday, April 3, is Mr. John Prizmich, a member of the Institute of Lay Theology, who will speak on the Church and the Catholic- Layman. Fr. Caldwell will speak on the first Friday in May on Sigmund Freud and his impact on Catholi¬ cism. It is the sincere hope of Father Chaplain that more students will take advantage of the monthly program. Fr. Norheim, OP Presents Recital Saturday Night Norwegian pianist Reverend Thoralf Norheim, O.P., will pre¬ sent compositions by Bach,' Mo¬ zart, Scarlatti, Beethoven,* Schu¬ bert and Contemporary Norwe¬ gian composers in a recital pro¬ gram in St. Robert's Auditorium on March 7.

OLSO CONSERVATOR* Fr. Norheim, a native Norwe- giari, was born in Telemark, Nor¬ way. in 1912 and was given his first music lessons by § hi» father. He continued his studies in Oslo at the Conservatory of Music, itis teachers included the great Norwegian musicians Halfdan deve, Nils Larson and Per Steen- berg. After his debut in Oslo in 1930, he played on radio pro¬ grams and in concerts throughout Norway. The turning point in his life, however, came when he join¬ ed the Catholic Church in 1937, eventually to be ordained to the priesthood in 1950. Famed Writer Dr. DeConde Discusses Foreign By TERRY O'REILLY . “Historical Change in Recent American Foreign Policy,” will be the topic of the lecture given by Dr. Alexander De¬ Conde on Wednesday, March 4. Because of the rapidly changing political atmosphere, this should prove to be a very interesting and informative lecture. i ' Dr. Alexander DeConde, who ^ joined the faculty of the Univer¬ sity of California, Santa Barbara, in the fall of 1961, is a full profes¬ sor of history on the University’s seashore campus. STANFORD GRAD Professor DeConde is an alumnus of San Francisco State University. He earned both.his M.A. arid ,Ph.D. degrees at Stanford University^ Be¬ fore joining the UCSB faculty, he taught at the University of Michi¬ gan, Duke University, Stanford University, and Whittier College. An able teacher and scholar and a prolific Writer,, the historian is responsible fpr a number of im¬ portant studies dealing with American foreign policy. His book on “The American Secretary of State,” published by Praeger last fall was the first historical analy¬ sis ever written about this import¬ ant national post. Some of the findings of this study were report¬ ed in a nationwide radio broadcast Curtain Fulls On Shukespeurean Tribute -Key Del Key Players Quit By Editorial Staff The 400th anniversary of William Shakespeare’s birthday, April 23, 1564, will not be celebrated this year at Loyola University. A performance of Hamlet, scheduled by the Del Rey Players for the occasion, was suddenly cancelled last week by Director William Don¬ nelly. He stated that the reasons behind this surprise move lies in the immaturity of sev¬ eral actors whose parts were vital to the production.

Thus the curtain fell before the play began. At the University of California at Los Angeles a variety of ar¬ resting sind provocative programs celebrating the Shakespeare All the World's A Stage Quadricentennial is presently tak¬ ing place. It ranges from lectures and readings to performances, fetes and masques; frorii exhibi¬ tions to a festival weekend at Asilomar. Loyola, while/ not the size of this state-supported institution, is still an institution of higher learn¬ ing. Furthermore, it is presently attempting to broaden its out¬ look through the vast and inclu¬ sive “Project 70” program. Yet such a relatively simple effort as presenting a Shakespearean play has failed. STAGE IS BARE In its theatrical program, Loy¬ ola has attempted to present to the student the widest possible variety of drama. Each semester a play from a different period of the evolution of the theater is j offered. Up until now this scheme has met with unqualified success. For example, last semester; Ghris- toptter Fry's “The Lady’s Not For Burning” was the recipient of many accolades. But unfortunate* ly, this semester there will be no play because of the total selfish¬ ness of a few “exceptional” Loy- olans. An (Empty Stage Coeiho Organizes New ASLU Post: Publicity Director Student Body President, Tony Coehlo announced the creation of a new A.S.L.U. office. Its official title is Student Publicity Director and will be headed by Tom Red¬ mond and Jim Freemdn. The job of the Student Publicity Director will be to arrange for off-campus publicity for events sponsored by student organizations. Arrange¬ ments can be made for television, radio, newspaper, poster*, etc., pub¬ licity for Loyola events. . NEED EVIDENT The need for such an office has long been evident. Worthwhile dejit organized activities, lectures, shows, debates, etc., have a no¬ toriously poor attendance record. It will be the job of the Director to assist organizations in publiciz¬ ing these events so that they will be better attended. The second purpose of this Committee will be to let the people of Southern Cali¬ fornia know We exist and that we have many outstanding events and programs on our campus.
