Parsons Introduces Loyola Dean ———— The third in the series of library lectures at the New Orleans Public Library was given by the Rev. j James A. Greeley, S. J., Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, last Tuesday night at the Library on Lee Circle. Father Greeley, who spoke on "The Worth of An| cient Literature to the Modern World," was introduced to the i large and attentive audience by j Mr. Edward A. Parsons, librarian I of the New Orleans Public Library. An excerpt from Father Greeley's speech follows: "To understand sines and logarithms, to know how cells unite into tissues, and in what proportion atoms are combined to form water—these things are the foun- I dations of branches of science, j each of which has the utmost pracj tical value. But they need to be j known by those only who are engaged in promoting those sciences by research or in dealing practically with their applications.

Gym Dance To be Given by Men of Sodalities Proceeds Will Be Used To Feed Poor During Christmas DANCE COMMITTEE IS ANNOUNCED Sodality Function Parallels Previous Dances of Season j Another Gym dance is planned for Friday, December 16. This time the dance is sponsored by the college sodalities and the proceeds will go toward buying baskets of food for the poor at Christmas j time. The dance will parallel the student dances in every way, including the price of admission. This dance was first planned to raise money for the Passion Play, but when this was called off the j College Council voted to hold it | anyway and use the revenue for | the benefit of the poor. Each year | at Christmas time the sodalities | of New Orleans have been in the } habit of distributing baskets of • food and bundles of old clothes | gathered through collections at the various schools to the poor and Loyola Students Attend Triduum Father Hayes, Who Is 111, Expresses Pleasure Over Results Loyola students contributed generously toward the national Triduum, the Sodalities' annual Christmas gift to the Holy Father, despite the fact that it was necessary to crowd it into two days. The religion classes of the College of Arts and Sciences pledged themselves to offer 285 masses and 191 Holy Communions for the intention of the Pope. No check could be made in the other departments.The Triduum of Masses and Communions was originally scheduled for December 5, 6 and 7, but because of the illness of Fr. Hayes, the Loyola sodality director, and some of the officers, the plans could not be put into effect before Wednesday, the 7th. As all the offerings have to be completed before the Bth of December, this left only two days for the students to fulfill their promises. In spite of this handicap, the students responded with a larger percentage than last year. The sodality extends its thanks to students for their cooperation in this activity and also to those professors who generously allowed the interruption of their classes for the collection.

ECONOMICS TALK FEATURES FORUM Fr. Burke Expresses Belief In Necessity of Private Property The Rev. Martin Burke, S. J., head of the philosophy department of Loyola University, said, at the second of the new series of philosophy forums held in Marquette Hall Sunday night, that "private property is the best means of preserving to man his share of the common goods given to him by God." "If at any time, however," he continued, "it is proven that private property is not insuring to the majority of men their part of the common good, then scholastic philosophy is going to clamber down off the bandwagon of private property and go over to common ownership." The Loyola College of Music symphony orchestra, under the direction of Dr. Ernest E. Schuyten, dean of music, played selections from "Peer Gynt," by Grieg, during the foruni. Arthur Sharon was master of ceremonies. The next forum will be held Sunday night at 7 p. m. in Marquette auditorium.

HURREY SPEAKS TO FOREIGN MEN AT FRAT HOUSE Consul Secretary Stresses Problems Confronting Foreign Students Mr. Charles B. Hurrey, secretary general of the Friendly Commitee of Foreign Students in American consulates, lectured to the Spanish-speaking students of Loyola University last Saturday at Phi lota Alpha, a Spanish fraternity house. Prof. J. Monasterio, department of mathematics, also spoke. Mr. Hurrey talked of the problems confronting the foreign stu- | dents in the universities of the United States today. He stated that the students should look upon themselves as ambassadors of their countries. He said that, because of their years of study in the United States, they imbibe ideas and customs of America and are able to correct the fallacies which foreign peoples have in regard to Americans. He also said that students leaving their own country to study should eventually, although it will be a slow process, lead to world peace. Having traveled through 50 countries, he spoke of his experiences. Prof. J. Monasterio cited an incident in order to show the value of Mr. Hurrey's talk.

FLYNN LEADS AS MOST POPULAR; JULIA ESPENAN FIRST CO-ED Three Popular Athletes, Love, Zelden and Booth, Are Close in Race VERY HEAVY VOTE IS CAST 1  ! Leaders in All Titles Found in Maroon Box ,  Edward Flynn, sophomore dental student and Olympic welterj weight champion, headed the list , of candidates for the title of the ! Most Popular Student at Loyola University, as a result of the balloting carried on in the primary of the annual popularity contest, held last Tuesday.

Elma May Chopin and Inez Becknell, both seniors in I the College of Music, were the Sodality Play Is Called Off Sodality Will Use Money Derived to Help City's Poor "His Kingdom," a play of Christ's life, sponsored by the New Orleans Sodality Union, will not be presented this year, according to an announcement by Rev. G. Alvin Hayes, S. J., dean of men and advisor of the union. "Plans for the play," said Father Hayes, "were made last spring, meetings were held during the summer months, and this fall actual work was started. The cooperation of the different sodalities in the city and the enthusiasm evinced by them gave promise that the play would be a pronounced success. The disappointment of all concerned over the recent decisior will be tempered by the knowledge that the sponsors of the play and the participants are doing something characteristic of the sodality in making the sacrifice of one good work for another that is more pressing, namely, the care of the needy in the various parishes of the city. Whatever monies would have been spent on the production of the play will be devoted, it is hoped, to the relief of suffering among Christ's poor."
