              The Loyola Maroon Vol. XLI Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday, April 2, 1965 No. 21 SC President Nominees Muhleisen And Sartory By BILL VOIGT two separate platforms are campaigning for students' votes in anticipation of lent Council elections Monday and Tuesday. Art Muhleisen and Louis Castaing running as presidential and vice-presidential candidates on one platform and i Sartory and Robert Perez on the other. Muhleisen and Castaing are candidates from the Unified Students Party which, according to Muhleisen, is more or less a reform party. Muhleisen said, "students are no longer content with what they are getting. Our party is striving to enlarge the students' role on campus. I feel that students are not getting proper teaching. Teachers are not teaching," he said. TOM SARTORY feels that to have an effective Student Council here at Loyola efforts must be concentrated within the areas where the Student Council has almost complete jurisdiction. It is here that results can be promised, and it is here that we propose to channel the activities of the elections is: Med Techs, 3:45 to 5:15 p.m.; evening division, 6 to 10 p.m.; and all others from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. ID cards must be shown. All voting is Monday and Tuesday in Danna Center. MUHLEISEN SAID he wants a stronger union of the students on the campus. He feels that they are drifting apart. He would like to set up a Tri council between the administration, the faculty and the students to discuss the problems on campus. Muhleisen continued, "I want to instill a pride in Loyola. I think that it is obvious that there isn't much pride in Loyola at the present time. "I plan to run a survey of the courses and teachers at Loyola to present to the incoming freshman next year. "I HOPE FOR a large turnout for the elections to show that the students are ready for the responsibilities." His running mate Louis Castaing commented, "I would like to see the university as one union instead of the separate groups as it is now. Many things can be done that many feel can't." Presidential candidate Tom Sartory said that continuation and extension of the College Bowl program is already in progress. He commented, "The weight and finances of Student Council backing can provide the support needed to make it a tremendous success. "COOPERATION with the Student Union and other organizations in providing a distinguished lecturer series can result in more speakers of the ticipation in homecoming festivities and an adequate investigation of student problems in the library. Sartory said, "Admittedly there are other areas perhaps more significant where work must be done. However, we must recognize that no promises can be made in these areas. Efforts may well be made to alleviate certain problems, but results cannot be forseen. "WE HAVE presented a program that can be accomplished, one which may not touch on all the difficulties of student life, but which provides a real- HEAR THE CANDIDATES Art Muhleisen, Tom Sartory Noon today Danna Center lounge caliber of our recent visitor, M.

The move came after no objections were raised to the motion made last week. Although no official representative was present to speak for Thespians, Bert Harris, a senior in speech and former president of Thespians, gave his views on the matter. HARRIS SAID, "The speech department is in a period of transformation. It is growing and at the present time is being moved into new offices. Plans are being made for a new club with a new name. Harris said, the new name would be the Loyola Theater. It will be directly connected with the speech department although students not in speech will be able to join. Next year when things are more organized the new club will ask for a charter." Also at the student council meeting a charter was submitted for approval by Sidney Castaing, A&S sophomore, for a Circle K club. The club is connected with the Kiwanis club and is an international organization. Its purpose would be to serve the school and to better the relations between the university and the community. Members of the club would associate with men in their field of study and would be better prepared for work upon graduation.The council said that the charter would be studied this week and voted on at the next meeting.

Marcel On Nietzsche Christian Focus By JOAN TREADWAY To the Nietzschean declaration "God is dead," Gabriel Marcel, (France's foremost representative of Christian existentialism) has, in effect, countered, "God is very much alive." Yet Marcel, in speaking on "The Myth of the Death of God in Contemporary Thought" in the fieldhouse Friday, far transcended the low level of cliches. HE STATED Nietzsche's denial "must be exclusively considered in the light of the exceptional being who made it," Sat we can ask ourselves I death of God might ally be the projection of pletely inner aging, in t to the ceaseless periinnovations being made realm of technology." HE FURTHER thought "that man will all the more readily endorse this kind of death certificate as he allows himself B ensnared by the trap of i.e. a tendency to gloriself on the basis of one's al achievement." ing posed the problem, went on to offer some ns which show why his philosophy is truly "Christian," (he is called the angel of Gabriel" by his French intimates), though he objects to the label "existentialist," saying "Labels are reserved for my suitcase." "What attitude should the believer take in front of those for whom the death of God "OUR PRIME duty is, in fact, to understand. Let me add that this understanding must necessarily imply selfscrutiny for I must then ask myself as a Christian or as a being aspiring towards Christianity to what extent God is a living reality for myself. "It is not enough for me to ask myself to what extent God is important is to know whether God is living through me." Though "this is not for me to decide since I shall always have to rely on testimony which needs to be treated with caution."Still, "The believer sees himself, from his own point of M GABRIEL MARCEL Students Impress Optimistic Marcel By JOAN TREADWAY IN A private interview, Marcel expressed his optimism. He said that all the various trends of philosophy were in the process of convergence, aetheistic and Christian included. His impressions of American students were "very favorable," and he thinks they are "very philosophically-inclined, in some ways even more than Europeans." Marcel's only complaint on his New Orleans visit was that he dislikes a large audience, both because he feels it is hard to communicate with the people in it as individuals, and because they might not understand him fully. He recalled student reaction to one of Kierkegaard's addresses as "glorious," but said that they later added that they didn't understand a word.
