Critter, Komma New Editors Of Maroon For Fall Semester Paper Shifts To Tabloid For 1958-59 Gail Gritter and Evelyn Komma, both journalism juniors, will head separate staffs of The Maroon for the fall semester. The announcement was made last Saturday night at The Maroon's annual banquet by Mr. Edwin P. Fricke, moderator and chairman of the department of journalism. This is the first time in the university's history that The Maroon has been spilt into two separate units. "Each editor will work independently of the other," Fricke said. The format of the campus weekly also will be changed beginning with the fall semester. The Maroon's "new look" will be a tabloid-sized paper, five columni wide by inches deep. The present Maroon is 7 columns wide by 21 inches deep. Fricke said that this is being done to acquaint journalism students with this smaller-sized paper. "We plan to have the regular size Maroon for three years and then on the fourth year change to a tabloid," he said. Other staff appointments: Komma's staff will include Nat Belloni as managing editor, Milton Alberstadt as news editor, Judy Brock as feature editor and Ronald Barnes as sports editor. Gritter's staff will have George Rhode 111 as managing editor, Kit Harger as news editor and Hil Leibe as feature editor. A sports editor will be announced at a later date. The Harry J. McEnerny Award presented annually to the outstanding student in the journalism department was presented to Leo McLean of Shreveport, retiring Maroon editor. The presentation was made at the staff banquet by the Rev. Robert L. Boggs, S.J., dean of students. McLean also merited the Boswell Institute plaque for the best creative work turned in by a staff member last year. The second Boswell plaque, both of which were presented by Dr. Brendan F. Brown, was awarded to Muriel "Kit" Harger for doing the best reportorial job this past year. Gold key winners were Barnes, Belloni, Gritter and Komma.

Goss, assistant professor of bacteriology, before the New Orleans Junior Academy of Sciences Tuesday. He said that although some bacteria are harmful, many are not, and a correct knowledge along these lines can aid in protection against disease. "The six principal diseases caused by microbes today are plague, smallpox, tuberculosis, dysentery, malaria, and typhus," he said. On the other hand, he remarked, microbes can be helpful. If it were not for these tiny organisms, the price of beef would be sky high. A cow fed on the type of diet humans consume would be worth his weight in gold, Dr. Goss said. *«  Keller Rates Award Bernard Keller, pharmacy junior, received honorable mention in an essay contest sponsored by the Vick Chemical Company. His topic was "How can I as a pharmacist improve my professional status as a member of the health team." $1000 Check Presented To University Bγ Beggars A check for $1,000 was presented to the Loyola University Program of Progress by Beggars social fraternity.
