              The Maroon Volume X LOYOLA UNIVERSITY, NEW ORLEANS, LA., MARCH 11, 1932 Number 16 ASK UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF LOYOLA MAROON ISSUES NATION-WIDE APPEAL, UNEMPLOYED S RELELF Move To Place 'Mite-Box' In Cafeterias For Depression Contributions College Papers Ask For a Penny a Day Appeal Will Include Every College In United States; Letters To Editors Soon "Amidst the anguished cries of I starving women and children and the pleas of unemployed men, the | Loyola Maroon steps i orward with I a concrete suggestion which it is hoped will alleviate iD. some small ! way the suffering of the nation during this time of economic stress and tribulation." So read a statement made by Temple H. Black, editor-in-chief of the Loyola Maroon, this week !as he announced the Maroon's I latest venture into the field of I national affairs. In explaining the nature of the endeavor, Black outlined the following plan: Letters will be sent to the , editors of every college newspaper : in the country. This letter will set , forth the Maroon's plan for the ! relief of this country's citizens ' who are suffering from the rigors of the depression. The letter will suggest that in every cafeteria in every university of the country, there be placed on the cashier's desk, a "mite box," in which each student will be asked to contribute one cent for each meal he or she : eats in the lunchroom. The returns that are garnered in this way are to be turned over the the local welfare committee in the city in which the university is located and the money will be distributed by this organization. The conception of this plan came as a result of the statement ! made some time ago, in which it was said that college men do not think, and that they do not con: cern themselves with anything outj side their own selfish politics and • petty situations that immediately concern them. In concluding, Black stated that not one university in the country j will be passed up, and that it is ! hoped that this will be an answer to the statement that college men ' don't think. Council Answers Election Attack CONTEND CHANGE WILL NOT REMEDY SYSTEM'S EVILS Reising Says Change Would Hinder Rather Than Help Things Burden of Proof Lies With Reformists Proposed Change Would Place Inexperienced Men On Student Council EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the second in a series of two articles to be printed in the Maroon discussing the method of elections to the Student Council. In this explanation the student governing body presents its side of the matter and believes that the method of elections should remain the same. According to an announcement made this weeK faul Keising, pi evident of the Council, we have been asked to correct a statement made in the editor's note preceeding the case against the council as set forth in last week's edition of the Maroon. The statement was that a vote of the student body would be taken and the council would abide by the result of this vote. Reising said that the council had not promised to abide by the result of any vote. However he intimated that a compromise might be effected if the student body was in favor of a change. Mr. Reising's discussion follows: THE CASE IN DEFENSE OF THE PRESENT METHOD OF ELECTIONS OF THE STUDENT COUNCIL This article will attempt to show the student body the other side of the discussion on elections to the Student Council. It is our contention that there might be some evils in the present system but that the proposed changes will not remedy the evils that might exist but rather would make of that organization an inexperienced group of students who would require at least half of the school year to become acclimated to the workings of the Council. Now the burden of proof is with the advocates for reform and so it will be up to them to prove conclusively to the student body that the present system is inadequate and that the proposed Hollywood Sore As Navy Fears Screen's Sirens Screen Stars Sneer At Sailors' Shudders (By College Newt Service) Hollywood, March 10.—Insulting Hollywood is serious business. So serious is it, in fact, that film stars this week were ready to challenge Rear Admiral Upham of the United States Navy to a duel or a war—or "something." Instead, Carl Bush, executive secretary of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, sent the following telegram to Washington: 'It is reported that derogatory remarks were made by a member of the Navy Department before the House naval affairs committee. If this is true, we demand a public apology." Last week, Admiral Upham assured the committee that the Navy Department favors the transfer of a part of the Naval Academy post graduate school to the University of California at Berkeley, in preference to the University of California at Los Angeles. The "civilian atmosphere" of Berkeley is better suited to the delicate temperaments of naval officers, he explained. "What about the 'civilian atmosphere' of Hollywood?" Chairman Vinson, of the committee, was reported to have asked. Students At Loyola Hear Talk On Credit In an address before the school of commerce and finance of Loy-1 ola university at 11 a. m., Friday, in Marquette auditorium, Charles ' G. Cobb, secretary-treasurer of the ' New Orleans Credit Men's association, stressed the importance of' credit operations in modern business and traced their development from the "one-man credit department" of the last century to modern scientific methods. SMITH VS SMITH IN SPRING GAME A. D. SMITH, former Wolf center, who will lead Bucky Moore, "Red" Gremillion and other stars of former years against Coach Clark D. Shaughnessy's 1932 edition of the Loyola Wolfpack Sunday afternoon in Loyola Stadium. The game will show the four Smith brothers in action. Bill, A. D., and Bob will vie for honors again Lei, the only Smith eligible for next year's varsity. OPERETTA TO BE PRESENTED AGAIN Glee Clubs Give Added Performance In Algiers The sixth and last local pre-Easter presentation of the sensational Glee Club operatic hit, "Hulda of Holland," will take place at the Martin Behrman Memorial Theatre in Algiers, tomorrow, Saturday ,at 8:30 p. m. The performance will be under the auspices of the Little Theatre of Algiers, a theatrical group on the West Side of the river. The Loyola Glee Club hopes that it will be able to take care of the persons turned away after the S. R. O. sign had been put up at last Tuesday's performance, at the next presentation. The Behrman Memorial is much larger than Marquette Auditorium, and should take care of Saturday night's theatregoers. Besides the Loyola Glee Club, the Ursuline Glee Club, the L. A. S. C. and the Loyola Orchestra take part in the presentation. The featured players include Mignon Deynoodt, Al Leach, Alexander Cavell, Paul Capdevielle, Jane Talty, Jean S. Owin, Fred Gisevius, Joe Douglas, and Lloyd Salathe. A chorus of more than thirty completes the company. The operetta was written by May Hewes Dodge and John Wilson Dodge. EDDIE FLYNN ILL Eddie Flynn, Loyola's National Welterweight Champion is suffering from an attack of pleurisy and attending physicians report that he will be confined to bed for at least two weeks. It is hoped that he will recover in time to take part in the Olympic tryouts, scheduled to take place shortly, as he is one of the South's best bets to represent them on the 1932 Olympic team. Flynn is at Hotel Dieu and is expected home within the next few days. BUCK MOORE AND HIS MATES RIDE AGAIN SUNDAY Old Stars Will Meet Coach Clark D. Shaughnessy's 1932 Wolfpack Edition "Bueky" Moore and his mates will ride again Sunday afternoon. When the whistle blows commencing the first football game of the year in New Orleans, fans will be given an opportunity to compare the latest and what is termed the greatest of Wolf elevens with a team of the finest individual stars Loyola ever had. Again there will be an opportunity to compare team play with a group of men who were individually brilliant. It has been rumored here and there that the old grads have collected a fund to wager against Coach Shaughnessy. Apparently the boys are not so sure that the newest Loyola team will whip them. During the last week the Wolves have been working out in the stadium, and have been through a bit of scrimmage to place them ; in condition. The old grads have also been working out, but scrimmage is unnecessary for them, since their football playing is second nature. Tickets are on sale now at 25c per head, with no seats reserved. The money will be used for a big banquet to be given after the game for those who participate in the game. FLORIDA DEBATES HERE WEDNESDAY Gators Were Defeated In Last Year's Contest Loyola University debaters will engage in the second intercollegiate debate of the current season Wednesday night at 8 p. HI., in Marquette auditorium, when they meet the representatives of the University of Florida. Leo C. Zinser and Robert A. Ainsworth, Jr., both members of last year's debate squad have been chosen by the Rev. Harold Gaudin, S. J., as the Loyola representatives. The personnel of the Florida team was not known as the Maroon went to press. The team of Zinser and Ainsworth will defend the negative of the question, "Resolved: That Congress Should Adopt Legislation Providing for Centralized Control of Industries, (Constitutionality Waived)." The Florida team will engage in debates with Springhill college in Mobile, and Tulane University in New Orleans, before meeting the Loyola speakers. Last year a team from Florida was defeated by a Loyola team in New Orleans on the Free Trade subject. The Florida debaters have a schedule this year that will place them among the outstanding universities in the nation from a forensic viewpoint. More than sixty intercollegiate debates have been scheduled, according to information received here. Two international debates are also scheduled for Gator teams. GIFT APPRECIATED A letter of appreciation for the class' token of esteem to him, was sent by P. L. Brothers, former professor of accountancy, to the Rev. J. A. Butt, S. J., regent of the commerce school. It will be remembered that the night class in accountancy last week presented Mr. Brothers with a golf bag.

Math Professor For sees South's Greatest Engineering School Loyola University with the finest equipped engineering school in the South, and the most competent staff of technical tutors ever assembled, that was the astounding picture that rose before this writer's eyes the other afternoon during an interview with Jose Monasterio, professor of mathematics at Loyola University. Nor was this merely a picture. A few minutes conversation with Mr. Monasterio, who was formerly one | of the most renowned military '. engineers in Mexico, served to convince the writer that this was an actual possibility. A short trip through the various laboratories added proof to this belief. Professor Monasterio showed us equipment such as we had never before laid eyes on, and which we never before suspected existed. There were instruments of such delicacy that the mere thought of their measuring possibilities overawed the writer. "Were it not for the lack of space, Loyola would be prepared at the present time to open an engineering department," stated Professor Monasterio. His added remarks brought out the value of the equipment and the capability of the faculty.
