sics. Due tohis research work andthe desire to expand therepertoireof violin concert music, many rareand important works of classicaland modern masters have been in-troduced to the world. Theseinclude Schumann's now famous"Lost" Concerto, composed in 1853and never played before; Mozart's"Adelaide" Concerto, and Paga-nini's "Diabolic" Concerto.

His present schedule, however,does not seem to leavemuch sparetime. Recent concert tours, includ-ing Europe, South Africa, andSouthAmerica, lefthim only a fewdays at home in the past year. Hisschedule for '51 is equally stren-uous.

Music ListeningSuperficial— SaysYehudi Menuhin

By KAY DALY andMARY ELLEN BERGMANN"Appreciation of music has de-

veloped horizontally, not vertical-ly. Ittends toward superficiality,"stated Yehudi Menuhin, famedconcert violinist, in an interviewfollowing his appearance at theCivic Auditorium Dec. 13.

Mr. Menuhin played before acapacity audience with the sametechnical perfection and youthfulpresentation for which he is sowell loved.

Though Yehudi Menuhin haswon the acclaim of the entireworld, this dynamic personalitydoes not feel thathis life has beenunusual. Although it is the onlysort of existence he knows, he isextremely versatile and views lifeas a "university" where everynewexperience is a vital part of hispostgraduate course.

On numerous occasions he hasentertained the Jesuits at AlmaCollege — his neighbors at Alma,Calif. At home or on tour, heprac-tices about six hours a day andspends some time on jumping ropeand finger gymnastics.

Inhis youth Yehudi liked to tin-ker with automobile engines. Ifhe hadn't become a violinist, hesays, he would probably now bea mechanic.

Since then, however, much ofhis spare time has been spent inthe rediscovery of forgotten clas-

stained-glass windows, the officeofthePresident announced this week.

kAn SU alumnus, who wished tomain anonymous, informed the

office that he would like to aidthe Sodality's efforts to acquirenew windows for the chapel. Hisoffer was thankfully accepted bythe Very Rev. A.A.Lemieux, S.J.,president of the University.

The donor made thegift inmem-ory of a member of his family.

Ithad been suggested that theSodality study ways and means,and possibly sponsor a drive forfunds to finance new chapel win-dows. It has queried a construc-tion firm and tentative plans have»en drawn.

The Rev. F. J. Liiidekusel, S.J.,Sodality moderator and Universi-ty chaplain, said the gift "is theanswer to our prayer, and is thereward to the students for theirdeep interestin thechapel, as man-

«ested by their frequent visits."Father Lemieuxsaid, "Thechap-'s appearance and atmosphere

will bemuch improved. The anon-ymous giver has our deepestthanks."

He said the artists who designedthe windows in Seattle's Holy Ro-saryParish Church will install thechapel windows. They are expect-ed to be inby May.

lettersto editorTo the Editor:

In reference to Mr. George L.Wilson'sblast in the "Lettersto theEditor" section of the last edition.

First of all, theIK's wish to apol-ogize if they inconvenienced theinhabitants of Vet's Hall by theirpreparations for the initiation.Weuse that space but once a year andit seems that the annual chore ofcleaning up was onlyhalf done.

This point is this—

we are opento criticism of this sort and weactually appreciate it when it isconstructive.However,theremain-der of Mr.Wilson's letter waswrit-ten in the veinof irrationality andslander and deserves to be refuted.

Perhaps Mr. Wilson does not at-tend basketball games, buy Who'sWho, listen to the Chimes, receivegrades andyearbooks;perhapsMr.Wilson did not participate in theCommunity Chest campaign anddid nothear of theChristmas party— or perhaps he feels that thesejobs are too insignificant to rate as"service."

The Intercollegiate Knights feel"service" is accomplished throughperformance of tasks such as men-tioned above. Ofter these tasks areunpleasant and often they requireapplication of another principle ofthe organization... "sacrifice."

Fellows who think enough oftheir school to do this usually de-vote their spare time to school ac-tivitiesand are recognized as such.Ithasbeen true in thepast and it istrue now.

Note that eleven IK's are on theSPEC staff; two are Student Bodyofficers, two are Sodality officers,three are class presidents, threeare members of Alpha Sigma Nu,whose total membership is com-prised of eight. Add to these themoremenial tasksof foldingchairsafter games, ushering at schoolconcerts, etc., and one has a prettycomposite picture of the work ofthe Intercollegiate Knights on thecampus.

Yes, Mr. Wilson, we feel we areacting like a service organization!

Sincerely,Jack Pain, Royal King,Intercollegiate Knights.

To the Editor:There's an organization in the

school, an organization whose em-blemeveryCatholicstudent shouldbe proud to bear, but too few areinterestedinunity which has spir-itualperfection and human charityfor its themes.

Their excuse is always the same:"I don't have the time," yet theycan always find time for the lessbinding activities. Studentgovern-ment, athletics, I.X.'s, DramaGuild, A Cappella Choir, the SPEC,all play a major part in theirdailyliving, but the Sodality is forgot-ten. The only organization whichhas for its first purpose, their onlyreason for existence, God andHeaven, comes last on their listof social "musts."

Sodality doesn't need them, for1

it isn't built on quantity. Oftenmany are turned away and refusedmembership because their basiccharacteristic is materialism, notCatholicism,but the minority thatdesire membership proves a dis-grace to a Catholic college of thissize.

What's the matter with the SUstudent? Apparently he's forgot-ten that there's only one life, 'twillsoonbepast, then only what's donefor God will last.

hearst-right or wrong

The situation of the United States in the world today presentsa grave problem, and diverse views as to the course of action thatshould be taken are evident throughout the country. One of the mostcontroversial suggestions for solution was expressed in an editorialof the Hearst newspapers,entitled "Our American Duty," which advo-cated withdrawalof the United States from the United Nations andfrom Korea

—in short, a policy of isolation.

In order to determine the opinionof Seattle University studentsconcerning this attitude,apoll wasconducted. The followingexpressedtheir views concerning the subject:

BarbieMorio: "Ihate to think of what it means, but mobilizationis necessary in order to finish the job we must do."

Madelyn Bosko: "The UN has possibilities as a peace-advocate,but it is hopeless in its present state. We should stay in the UN andcontinue to contribute to armament, but we can't win if other coun-tries don't give their share."

Al Flynn: "I agree with Gov.Dewey, in that we should encouragesuch countries as Spain, Turkey, and Yugoslavia, who have the divi-sions we need."

John Blewett: "We should get it over with by tightening up thedraft laws, but all the National Guard and Reserve Units should becalled before the vets."

Gene Recchia: "The US should get out of the UN and quit actinglikeSanta Claus. Since we can't beat China on the ground, we shouldtry to defeat them with the Air Force and effective trade blockades."

BillLandreville: '.'The UN wouldcrumble if the US leaves,result-ing in leaving the world wide-opento Russia."

BillMcGreevy: "Mobilizationto the fullest extent, and the atomicbomb, would help the situation."

Rosie Brusatti: "The present UN is a sham. What it needs isrevision and a basic international law. There should be a showdownto find out where we stand with the other countries in either materialor moral support."

Jim Farris: "We should stay in the UN, remembering that theSecond World War might have been averted by our joining the Leagueof Nations."

Jack Ramon: "Mr. Hearst has a phobia on death, undoubtedlyresulting in this isolationist policy. This is clearly shown in his biog-raphy, "Lord of San Simeon."

Don Graham: "We should have sot out long ago but, as long aswe've got so much init, we should finish it oat."

Beverly Schaller: "The US isn't the only representative in theUN. What we are fighting is Communism, and all nations shouldhelpus. If we can push the Communists out of Korea, our battleis half-won. The safest place to live, right now, is in Brazil."

Bob Graaf: "The Hearst editorial is contrary to our country'sbasic beliefs and ideas.

Rose Armstrong: "If we withdraw from the war in Korea, weshow that we have no confidence in the UN. If the United Stateswants to be a leader, it should set a pattern and follow it."

the modernChristmas JOHN MORGANIwas strolling through town the other day when Icame upon

twomiddle-aged ladiesgazing in one of the departmentstore windows.The display was the Nativity scene, a rare item these days. As Iwalkedpast them Ioverheardone saying to the other, "Well, if thatdoesn't beatall! Look at that— even the Churches are trying to capi-talize on Christmas!"

It seems incredible that anyone couldbe that ignorant of the truemeaning of Christmas; but that lady is far from alone in her thoughts.Christmas today resembles the Christmas of 1,950 years ago aboutas much as black resembleswhite! People seem to think of the impor-tance of buying gifts; in fact, many go off the deep end and not onlywrap presents but also wrap themselvesin debt, and for the sole pur-pose of fulfilling the so-called duty of giving ("whether you've gotit or not"). They don't,however, realize the importance of their realduty: to take the time to thank God for the great gift of His Sonwho was born to redeem us from eternal damnation. That marvelousNativity was the beginning of our salvation; no wonder a special dayhas been set aside to reflect on this wonderful act of God's mercyand to be thankful in being so fortunate.

But few realize the true spirit of Christmas, for today industryhas so commercialized the season that Christ's name has even beenremoved from the name of the feast. We used to call it Christmas;now business has seen fit to cut advertising costs by calling it Xmas!How mercenary can they get?

As a boy, to me Christmas meant going to 5:00 Mass with thefamily and receiving Christ in the Blessed Sacrament in commemora-tion of that Christmas long ago when the world first received Him.

It's true that there were gifts when we got home, too; but theywere not the main part of Christmas. Ican truthfully say that thefamily trek to Christmas Mass was the biggest thrill of all. Thatwas Christmas to me!

Since then, commercial interests have gradually taken over moreand more of Christmas and pushed Christ farther and farther backout of the picture. If you don't believe this, take a trip downtownand look at a few of the department store window displays.

At one you'll find a cut little set of leopards (true symbols ofChristmas!); at another you'll seeabeautifulwinterscene, withLioneltrains running around, under, over, and through it (what connectionthis has with Christmas, I'll never know); and in another you canwitness a gigantic mechanical circus, complete with clowns.

Now here we have the only honest window in town, for that'sjust what they are

Thunderbirds'Up' for Chiefs

While the big game of the NewYear is figured to be with Collegeof Puget Sound on Tuesday night,Jan. 2, Coach Al Brightman'sBraves may have a rough tusslein their returnseries with theUni-versity of British Columbia, nextWednesday and Thursday nights,Dec. 27 and 28.

Although the Chiefs hold twinvictories over the Vancouver, 8.C.,quint, 87-66 and 94-72, the Thuu-derbirds,underJack Pomfret,havegreatly improved and are figuredto be in top condition for theirSeattle matches.

After the CPS match, the Chiefsplay host to another Canadianteam, the Vancouver Cloverleafs,who play on the SU court Jan.5 and 6.

AL BRIGHTMAN

By JACK PAIN and JOHN MORGANNotoriety, in the athletic vein, has come to Broadway and Madi-

son. The latest AP poll ranks the Chieftains as 43rd in the nation.This is Seattle University's first national ranking. And here in theQueen City, arguments rage pro and con on the SU tactics in the 47-39victory over the Wolfpack of theUniversity of Nevada.

Al (the Thinker) Brightmandefinitelyoutguessed NevadaCoachJake Lawlor last Sunday evening.Behind that 17%-minutestall thathas caused many to forget theChina-UN controversy,wasa mas-terpiece of strategy.

The Wolfpack clamped a tightzoneon the Chiefs and were with-in a point of catching the homecrew oneminute before the inter-mission. Their tall center, TedJohnson,droppeda21 totalthroughthe hoop, missing only two shotsin the first half. The 6-foot, 7-inchhunk of pivot-man was hookingover the desperate arms of ourtallestman,BillHiglin—

who hadthe double handicap of lack of height and a slightly twisted ankle.(We don't mean to slight Johnson; a horde of Mongolian horsemencouldn't have put the stop to him when he poised to shoot.)

Most fansdidn't realize this. The Chiefs hit long ones in the firsthalf and helda 5-point lead, but Al wasn't going to rely on his fivehitting so consistently from 30 feet out..

There was no reason for us to play the Wolfpack style and riskdefeat. It was up to the visitors to come out and meet us. A realbasketball fan knows that a squad plays to win... and they shouldrecognize the strategical bluff of one coach and the stubborness ofanother.

Smoke Signals...Incidentally, the Wolfpack put on a stall against Portland U. in

the secondhalf last Saturday night... exactly what Al thought theywould do if Johnson got his hands on the ball to put them ahead. ...(P.S. The Pilots didn'tsit back, but broke it up and wenton to win.)John O'Brien, who appearedso calm and suave during the stall, de-clares that he has never been so nervous on a basketballcourt. ...Personally, we think the crowd likes a ballclub that can handle bothstyles well, andfollow the coach to the letter.... An amateur mathe-maticianreportsthat over234 consecutivepasses were thrownbetweenthe Chiefs during the "deep freeze" period.... And then there isthe wise guy who wants the SU jerseys to read "Kelvinators"...."But the Chiefs found they wereplaying men,not boys." (Quote from"The Times.") .. ."If the Wolfpack had beenmen and not boys, theywould have been ahead and we would have had to play their kindof ball." (Quote from Sam Schultz.) ...ConvalescentEddie O'Brien(who needs ahaircut and shave, but stillhas that smile) wasn't wor-riedabout Johnny joining himat Providenceafter thatcollision Sundaynight ...he already has big JimMangan, the UW tackle, as a room-mate.... Coach Tippy Dye, of the Huskies, was heard to say, viatheairwaves, that he thought Brightman's move to be a smart one....RefereeDiJulio was heard to exclaim, during the "Wolfpack retreat,""I'vebeen waiting 20 years for a rest like this!" ... Whitman invadesTepeetown tonight ... will the Indians massacre the Missionaries?

By GLENN GRAHAMThe Nevada Wolfpack, after

using a ball-controlgame againstPortland University, got a tasteof their own medicine last Sundaynight when the Chieftains playedkeep-away for 17 minutes in thesecond half, which permitted only7 points to reach the hoop. TheSilver-and-Blue was on the shortend of a 42-37 score at intermis-sion.

After racking up No. 10, inthrashing Linfield College, 102-61,our versatilecoach apparently be-came economic-minded and en-couraged the team to cut downontheir scoring spurts so as to mini-mizeincreasing costs for hoop nets.Thus the squad played "Patty-Cake,Patty-Cake"for allbut threeminutes of the last half.

Evidently saving: their stepped-up fast break for a rainy day,ourMaroon-and-White "Puffed WheatSparkies, the tribe that's shot fromguns," played a grueling ball-game to finally WALK into thedressing-room with a 47-39 deci-sion.

Coach Glenn "Jake" Lawlorpulled his remaining substitutesoff the bench and retired to theshowers before playing time hadelapsed. (By the way, did youknow that three out of the fiveNevada starters have blue eyes?)

Johnny O'Brien led the scoringfor the Chieftains in the first half,with 11points, and alsoin the lasthalf, with 4 out of the 7 pointscompiled. Nevada's Ted JohnsonTed Johnson and his effectivehook-shotkept theWolfpack whis-tling on the Chiefs' necks, with 23points.

Last Friday Linfleld Coach RoyHelser was wishing he was backat Portland with the bases loaded,two out, a three and two count inthe ninth with the score tied, 0-0;Coach Durham was just wishing

The contest was a rough-and-tumble affair, with 62 fouls beingcommitted; however this did notaffect the Chiefs' shooting eyes, asthey canned 39 out of 77 shots fora .506 average.

Tonight Whitman College gets alook at our new secret weapon,followed by ÜBC on Dec. 27-28,and CPS on Jan. 2.

Yell Team SpursChiefs to VictoryIn Winning Streak

A veryvital psychological factorin the Chieftain's record-breakingseason so far has been the SeattleUniversity yell team. The enthusi-astic quintet which comprises theteam are Sophomore Jo Risalvatoand Freshmen Jackie McDonald,Buzzie March, Court Wing andMary Pasquan.

Since they were first chosen inan all-school competition, the fivehave led the cheers at all the homegames this year and are presentlycontemplating out-of-town trips toPortland and Spokane with thebasketball squad.

Joe Risalvato, the cheer queen,revealed that the maneuver inwhich the leadersclap four times,stomp four times, and then yell"Fight!" five times seemed to bethe most popular with the crowds.

"It would be nice if the crowdlearned the cheers, and it wouldalso help if the students would sitin the right section," continued Jo,when asked for helpful suggestionsfor the students.

The yell team is quite seriousabout their duty and practicewhenever they geta chance whichis usually in the evenings. All thefive except Mary have had previ-ous experienceas cheer leaders inhigh school.

First Ski MeetSlated for January

The Chieftain ski team is head-ing for a series of turnouts overtheChristmas holidays. They'll bepracticing for the four-way meetsthey have on the calendar. Theymay be few, but they're important.

The team will get its downhilland slalom work at Stevens, itsjumping at Leavenworth, and itscross-country trudging back andforth between the two.

The first competitive meet isscheduled for early January.

CHIEFS'BALL CONTROL PAYS OFF3

To Meet Whitman Tonight;Papooses To Play Lawton

By FREDDIE CORDOVAThe Papooses have their eyes

set on victory No. 10 when theymeet Ft. Lawton tonight in a N.W.League game. After the final whis-tle, Whitman will come chargingout to attempt to beat the Chief-tains.

In the preliminary matchof theSU-Nevadagame, theFroshoutranthe Sand Point Naval Air Stationfive, 86-42. "Eighty Inches" Pe-hanick improved, with 25 points,though Rice, of Sand Point, tookindividual honors with 27.

Jack Whittles and Ray Soo eachcollected 11.

The Papooses travel to EverettDec. 26 to meet the Maroon-and-White Everett JC. The Frosh beatthe Trojans earlier in the season,59-44, when the JC team came toMemorial Gymnasium.

Thus far, the Papooses are tiedwith Alpine for second place inthe N.W. League. Ft. Lawton hasa two win, three lossrecord, whichundoubtedly places them as under-dogs in facing the Frosh.

In 11 games, the Papooseshavemanaged to win nine, losing onlyto Renton and splitting a serieswith Olympic JC. As comparedto last season, the Frosh wononlyfour games out of the first 11.

Intramural BallCommencesIn January

During the first week of Januarythe intramuralsports programwillonce again get under way. BillFenton, director of athletics, saidthat he hoped for a large turnout,though not as large as last year's.At that time there were 20 teams,nearly 200 players. However, thisyear the draft has taken so manyof the younger male students, andan evenhigher percentageof themare working.

The games will be played on thefull court, with the same rulesused by the varsity with this oneexception: time will be out onjump balls only during thelast twominutes.If there are twelve or more

teams, the league will be split intotwo divisions with a playoff be-tween the leadersof eachdivision.

No "100 or no count" games areanticipated. According to Fenton,the teams should be more evenlymatched with no one team out-standing.Itishoped that all the games can

be played on the SU floor. How-ever, if need be, some will beplayed on the K.C. court as theywere last year.At no cost will theyinterferewith the varsity and froshturnouts.

Tentative plans are for thegames to be played at 12:10 and1:10, so the intercollegiate teamswon'tbe handicapped.

The mail boxes have been wellfilled with Christmas cards andcorrespondence from all over thecountry which is apleasantoccur-rence for all concerned.

forces and the Red Cross through-out the world, following the U.S.Army into France and Belgium.After liberation he was the firstto play in Paris, Brussels, Bucha-rest, and Antwerp.

When asked about audience ap-preciation,heanswered, "The mostappreciative audiences are thosewhichpossessvitality,coupledwithhumility. The "younger" townsdisplay a growing appreciationnotpossessedby the larger cities. Thelatter assume that their economicdevelopment assures appreciationof the finer arts." For aspiringmusicians he added, "Music is soclose to humanity that one mustgo to humanity to develop one'sself as a musician."

"Today there is more leisure,thereforemorepeopleare listeningto concerts. This, however, is notnecessarily encouraging, for morepeople are watching television,dancing,and engaging in other rec-reations. The real test will comewith the "recession of leisure."Then we will know the place ofmusic in our American culture.

As he left to catch a plane forhis concert in Vancouver, 8.C.,he gave this warning about Seat-tle's musical endeavors: "You can-not plant a large tree in shallowsoil. Its roots must have room togrow and flourish, or it willsurelytopple over."
