              The LOYOLA MAROON Vol. XXXIV Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Monday, April 1, 1957 No. 20 Ex-Red Boss Malenkov Next On LU Forum Georgi M. Malenkov, Russian minister of power stations and ex-prime minister, will appear on the Loyola Forum on an undetermined date in May, a surprise announcement revealed this week. The Soviet politico who tried to wear the shoes of Josef Stalin after his death in 1953 and found they didn't fit, will speak on the "New, Humanitarian Look in Reformed Communism." hnt.h Vipi-p «nd elsewhere in a series of suddenly scheduled United States lectures.Some complications may arise from public indignation to the use of public auditoriums for the lecture, it was speculated on the campus. Since the announcement could not be revealed until today, April 1, some have surmised that it will be difficult to find a site large enough to hold the anticipated crowd. Apparently Stalin's own choice as a successor, Malenkov movec into the prime ministry less than 24 hours after the Russian hero's death, March 6, 1963. Nine days later, an omen of hi* impending step down the Communist ladder came as he resigned his post as leading secretary of the SoTiet Central Committee, ostensibly to devote himself to work as prime minister.A five-man secretariate replaced him with Nikita S. Krushchev as its moving power. Krushchev later was elected first secretary of the party. After Malenkov's rise to power, he launched the peace offensive, a short-lived move for popularity with emphasis on production of light consumer goods instead of heavy, war-essential manufacture. On Feb. 8, 1955, Malenkov resigned' as prime minister calling himself a "failure" in agricultural leadership and an inexperineced hand in running the affairs of state. He was named deputy premier as well as minister of power stations, but it was obvious to experienced observers that his power was wiped away in the change-up. Bulgannin moved in, with many believing that Krushchev was pulling all the strings. The April 1 announcement said that Krushchev will speak at numerous unnamed sites in the East, Middle West and South in an effort to bring "an understanding of the new look in Communism" to Americans. GEORGI MALENKOV Appoint Vinci Maroon's Own Staff Dentist Sam Vinci, dental junior, was appointed staff dentist of The Loyola Maroon, Joan Gaulene, editor-in-chief, announced.Vinci already has three Maroon editors under his care, Gaulene said, and is a fitting applicant for this position. The young dental student came to Loyola's college of dentistry from Ole Miss where he did his pre-dent work, and since that time has been a favorite with Maroon staffers. Prank Causey, co-news editor, has received four inlays at the hands of the competent young dentist. 'He has made my value increase greatly,' Causey said, "but you know, my insurance premiums have gone up too." Marilyn Hall, who to date ha* had only one checkup and cleaning job, by Vinci feels, 'he is a definite asset to the staff as journalists with their irregular eating habits and given to decaying teeth." The entire staff is scheduled for regular checkups and visits under the aspiring dentist in the very near future, Gaulene said. It is the aim of the department of journalism to maintain a staff with excellent bicuspids. Vinci is the first staff dentist in the history of The Maroon. CLASSES CANCELLED All 8, 9, and 10 a.m. classes have been cancelled through the end of this semester it was disclosed today. The University made this move as not to invade students' rights to sleep later in the mornings. Fr. Walshe Lands 940-Lb. Tarpon A prize tarpon, weighing 940 lbs., was caught off the Gulf Coast by the Rev. James Walshe, S.J., of the philosophy department, last weekend. The tarpon, which will be entered in the Annual Gulf Coast Tarpon Rodeo in the summer, is presently being stuffed by a leading taxidermist in the city. When queried as to how he landed the big fish, Father Walshe merely commented, "I used a little philosophy ... it pays off." Asher Finds Fountain Of Youth Loyola might as well tell Henry Wilson Asher, Jr. goodby. He's going to be a millionaire soon. And a millionaire simply has to travel, be a bon vivant and partake of "joie de vivre." Seriously, though, he's a cinch to be a millionaire. After all, a man who can grow hair, lose weight effectively and make himself look 10 years younger in a week's time has to get rich—stinking rich. Asher has it. And "it" is a way to grow hair. Just a week ago, Asher, who is the portly little fellow in the department of public relations, was bald. He was rotound to say the least, and he looked every bit of his, ahem, 28 years. "I got tired of saving my hair, that iD, in D cigar box," Asher said. "So I decided to go out and work in my lab and find me ■ way to grow hair." "I got tired of people calling me 'that bald-headed little man,'" he said. "I fooled everybody though. They said I couldn't do it, but just look at me now." Asher has changed. Just look at him now. He's youngish looking. He could easily pass for 21. He has hair and hair is vital to a man in this day and age. And he's shapely too. He weighs a cool 155, instead of a chubby 215. Yes, indeed, he has it. Asher started his experiments a year ago. Success came to him just a week ago. It was a long, difficult grind, but the results will more than reward him sufficiently. The public relations aide went into hiding about 10 days ago. It was rumored around the campus that a Congressional Committee had him. Actually, he was working on his hair, and the rest of himself. A»her came out of hiding Monday. Hβ had hair. Ha wa» youngish and good-looking. And he was dim. In fact, no one recognized him. He wa« popular; he he was truly a bon Tivant. Now Asher is planning to get his new hair oil patented. His "Fountain of Youth" medicine will stay behind the scenes until he makes a successful negotiation. Asher says that his hair-grower really works. After all, he has the hair to prove it and it isn't a toupee.So, with all this, Loyola might as well kiss Henry Asher goodby. HENRY W. ASHER, JR Pack Accepts Bid To Alaska Bowl Loyola's Wolves are among eight teams which have accepted invites to the first annual international Alaska Bowl basketball tournament, it was anounced this week. The tournament, which will be sponsored by the Juneau, Alaska, Chamber of Commerce, will be hel4 in the Juneau Fieldhouse on December 28 through 30. Because of the invite to the Alaska Bowl, the Wolves will have to give up their bid for the 1957 Sugar Bowl cage tournament which will be held in the LU Fieldhouse at the same time. On the entry list are the universities of Hawaii, Rio de Janeiro,Janeiro, Puerto Rico, Detroit, Arizona and Portland and Redlands Colleges. In an effort to bring big-time basketball to Alaksa, the Juneau CC is going all out for the affair. A $10,000 plus expenses guarantee was promised the Wolves, three thousand more than the University of Hawaii. "There wai no doubt in my mind aD to which tournament to choose," the Rev. James J. Molloy, S.J., wa* quoted. "This is our big chance and we are more than pleased to accept." Coach McCafferty was equally pleased with the invitation and feels quite confident that his "boys" will, at least, put up a fine showing. "We should walk away with the championship," McCafferty said. "We'll be powerful next season, what with Crit Lorio the only graduating senior." Wolf returnees include recordbreaking Pete Gaudin, Bob Mc- Laughlin, Jim Hall, Bill Schweiberger, Chester Doll, Karl Vogt, Henry Exsterstein, Boogie Murret, and Bob Hughes. Freshmen moving up from the Wolfpups are Art Radvilas, Larry Henneberger, Jack Morris, George Flynn, Jerry Kowalczyk, Jimmy Buisson, B. J. Pecoraro, Ferd Caronna and Tommy Hendricks. With all this talent, the Pack can't lose in thier quest for national fame. The team itself is thrilled with the invite although a little disappointed at having to turn down the Sugar Bowl offer. "Receiving the Sugar bid was really an honor," said Pete Gaudin, "but after all, we're a traveling outfit and so the Alaska Bowl represents a long trip." The rest of Gaudin's team mates agreed on this point and as Jim Hall put it "Get you ear muffs out boys, and we'll radiate a little heat up in that thar igloo country."The McCaffertymen will meet $3,000,000 Modernization Building Program Planned Three New Buildings Featured In Design Construction on a new $3,000,000 horseshoe of three magnificient, modern-type buildings will begin on the campus during the late part of 1958, it was announced this week. The new horseshoe will be constructed facing Calhoun Street and will include a new science building, a student center, and a men's dormitory. Preliminary construction, which will include the razing of the Ranchouses and several other buildings, will begin during the summer of 1958. The new buildings should be completed for the 1959 school term. The buildings are all of modern-type architecture and will be in direct contrast to the other buildings on the campus. Architects for the building and James Pratt and Sons of Miami, Fla. The building contract has not been given out. The student center will be a two-story structure and will include offices for the faculty, a large lounge for both male and coed students, record rooms, rooms for private meetings, several reading rooms, and a large snack bar. The science building will house the departments of physics, chemistry, medical technology, pharmacy and biology. Bobet Hall will be turned orer to the school of dentistry. The dormitory will be two stories high and will be large enough to house 450 male students. There will be between 200 and 250 rooms in all. The dormitory also will have a library of its own, a snack bar, and several lounges. All three buildnigs will be completely air-conditioned. All of the present science classrooms in rear of Bobet Hall will be razed and there is a possibility that several new buindings, including a cafeteria, will be erected on that site, it was also announced.The new student center will cost approximately $1,200,000; the dormitory $800,000; and the science building $1,000,000, officials of the University said. The new student center will have an outdoor area where dances may be held during the evenings. A beautiful fountain will add a decorative effort to the area. Palm trees will add a tropical effect. The center building will be the science building, while the other two will be erected on the adjoining sides. A flagpole will be erected in front of the new dormitory.NEW CAMPUS buildings will include a modern science building (top), a student center (middle), and dormitory (bottom). The new horseshoe will face Calhoun St. Palm trees and a fountain are among the architect's plans to give the campus a tropical effect. As a result of these improvements Loyola will be the most modern college in the U.S. Cunningham Gets Movie Contract Carol Cunningham, music senior, signed a Hollywood contract today under which she will make two movies a year for three years. "I start on my first picture next September which will be a musical, Cunningham said. The campus starlet first came to the attention of movie scouts when she won Blue Key Talent Night and again when she was named Campus Queen. She will leave for Hollywood June 8. Maintenance Paves Biever Mud Puddle The mud puddle that for months has plagued Maroon, Wolf and Ranchhouse resident* was replaced this week by a two-inch slab of cement. Maintenance employees began pouring the cement early Saturday morning and students were permitted to use the new walk today. The walk extends from the rear of Biever Hall all the way to the back of the Ranchouses facing Calhoun Street. Debate Team To Correct Jurist's Name The members of the Edward Douglass White Debate Society have begun construction on a new name plate for the statue of Edward Douglass White which is located in the front of the Royal Street court house building. New Orleans city officials have been advised several times that the famous jurist's name is misspelled, but no steps have been taken to correct this mistake. "We are tired of waiting for them to make the change," Pesce, president of the society said. "All the members of the society have voted unanimously in favor of constructing our own name plate," he added. The project will cost approximately $1,000, but all the members feel that this coat ii justified, since it will anil an afe Ion? argument. Hammers, saws, nails and cement have been purchased and each member will pitch in to complete the job as soon as possible. "The hard part of the job will be thp lettering," Pesce said. "But to eliminate the argument among the society, each member will print one letter apiece." By this method it will be a joint effort and no single member can take claim for completing this major project alone. EDITORS NOTE Don't believe all you read here.
