              Senior Exams ROTC Awards Next Week The LOYOLA MAROON  Begin Tuesday No. 2 Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday, May 9, 1958 Vol. XXXV Exams Deadly Brew For Bewitched Seniors By MARILYN HALL AND JOHN PAYTON (victim* of below-mentioned fate) "Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn and caldron bubble." So said first witch, second witch and third witch as they evily spun the web about William Shakespeare's •'Macbeth.•' And those same witches have returned, this time to the Loyola campus, to brew evil and bring an ironic twist to earlier senior exams. The witches started mixing their brew four years ago, at least to nervous seniors of 1958, when they filled the hearts, minds and mouths of young freshmen with burning envy. "If we could only have them early." "It's not fair." "Why can't we get 'em over?" And to think they don't even have any more class." Such were the sentiments that filled our aching young hearts that May of 1955 as we watched seniors clamor for blue books and triumphantly approach exams, while we, poor youth, faced over two more weeks of class. And here we are, seniors at last. The envy is gone and the witches' brew has been effective. With four years' cramming and no-dozing experience, we wish feverently that the spell could be removed and that some miraculous power could stay the day of execution. And in place of the envious groans of four years past, have come sad meanings. "How could they possibly have picked a more inopportune time? Here we are right in the midst of the banquet season. Besides the lake is so relaxing," one reluctant senior remarked. From another victim came, "I think beginning exams on a Tuesday demonstrated a complete lack of foresight. Now I'll have to miss 'Restless Gun' and 'Wells Fargo' Monday night." But more philosophical-minded seniors, long past the realm of freshmen spunk, have turned to "passive submission." Their motto: "No sweat. Just one week left. No sweat. Just one sleepless week left. Just one lousy, sleepless week left . . ." And so it goes, the pitiful moanings of bewitched students. The exam schedule hangs innocently from the bulletin board. Profs smile and classes become friendly. But oh so sad is the blighted senior who sits therein, wondering, worrying and whispering. With a prayer on his lips, the senior will go to his death Tuesday. A famous dress designer has said, "Chemises were made by men who hate women for women who hate men." We wish to say, "Exams were made by profs who hate students for students who hate profs" ... or is it to dangerous at such a late stage for the above bylined writers to dare such a dangerous statement? CRAMMING TIME U test time for those "lucky" seniors who are allowed to take their exams early. Enjoying the 'privilege' are, from left, MARCO TUMINELLO and ARTHUR VANDERLINDEN. For some reason, they don't look happy. Senior Exams To Start Eflip1"1^"of the collfge of arts and aciences'an- Senior examinations will continue Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday of next week.
