Col. Moss Leaves College ROTC Post

Army Arsenal Awarded Fourth Superior Rating

A team of ordnance inspectors from Fort ['••.. ii Massachusetts, inspected the Providence College R.O.TC arms room during the past week with the result being that the arms room was given a superior rating for the fourth straight year. The inspection was con­ducted by Mr. De Leo and M r Wright, c iv i l ian employees of the A r m y , who inspected each weapon and rated the weapons on cleanliness and servicea­bil i ty The inspection covered both in­dividual and crew-served weapons.

The superior rating is a tribute to Mr Di Donato and his assistant, Mr . Delsesto. along with the non-commis­sioned officers who cleaned each weapon This was the last inspection charged to Col. Moss, who retired yes­terday. The superior rating is a tribute to Mr . D i Donato, under whom a l l four superior ratings have been won However, a superior rating is

nothing new for Mr. D i Donato, who also has won several honors while in command of the arms room at the local armory. A l l told Mr . D i Donato has been in charge of arms rooms for over thirty years, heading arms room while on active duty and now in a civi l ian role. Mr. Di Donato is quick to point out that much praise should also be given his assistant, Mr . Del­sesto, and the non-coms who assisted him in putting the arms room i n top shape for the inspection.

The inspectors were at the college for four days and tore down each weapon, before coming up with the superior rating. Providence is one of the few colleges in the area to have a superior rating and the students should be proud both of the award and of the efficient work of Mr. D i Donato.

Woon.Club To Hold

Mardi Gra Dance

The Woonsocke t ' t ub of Providence College wi l l laxe Jn l A i v e participa­tion in the annual Woonsocket Mard i Gras according to word received from club president, Paul De Roche, today De Roche announced that the entire membership of the club is spending numerous hours in making a float for the giant Sunday parade and in spon­soring a Mardi Gras dance

Donald Carignan, chairman of the float committee has announced that the title of the float, in keeping with the parade theme. "Say It W i t h Music", w i l l be " A Pretty G i r l " and the chairman hopes to have several of last year's queens chosen at Provi­dence College dances bedeck the float, which wi l l be in competition for several prizes. The club was also in­strumental in having the Providence College R O T C D r i l l Team partici­pate in the huge parade scheduled for Sunday. February 12.

The club wi l l also sponsor a Mardi-Gras dance on Thursday, February 9, at the Dreyfus Hotel in Woonsocket with dancing scheduled from 8-1. Carignan is also chariman of the dance committee, assisted by John Fay, George Mor in and James Shee-han. A large crowd is expected to at­tend since the Mardi-Gras queen wi l l be crowned right outside the hotel at 9 o'clock that evening.

President De Roche extends an in­vitation to all Providence College stu­dents to attend the club dance and the parade Jack Fay and A l San Souci are in charge of publicity.

January thirty-first was more than the end of the month, it was the end of a career at Providence College The career has been that of Colonel Roy P. Moss, the man who was most in­fluential in the establishment of the outstanding cadet corps here at Prov­idence College.

Colonel Moss' personal interest in the training of young men aspiring to become commissioned officers and his efficient cooperation with the Staff and Faculty of Providence Col­lege did much to create a spirit of con­fidence, interest, and enthusiasm for the Reserve Officer Training Corps activities in the student body. His great leadership, initiative, and ad­ministrative ability during his term as Professor of Mil i tary Science and Tactics, were responsible for the or­ganization, successful development, and effective implementation of the Reserve Officer Training Corps pro­gram at Providence College.

To show its appreciation. Provi­dence College awarded Colonel Moss an Honorary Degree of Master of Sci­ence at the 1955 commencement exer­cises for his "unt i r ing efforts, keen­ness of mind, administrative experi­ence and warm kindliness of heart."

The last phrase is probably the most familiar to the students who have had any contact with the R.O.T.C. program Whether it was advice on a mil i tary career, scholastic dilficul ties of any nature, or that insur­mountable, ever present problem of women the Colonel had the right solu-

| l ion every time.

For these, and his numerous ac­complishments and comm.-inl.il le per­formances during Wor ld War II i n Afr ica and Italy, and later in Korea, Colonel Moss is to be congratulated. His achievements reflect great credit upon himself and the military service. His retirement is a great loss to the Army and Providence College, but a great gain for the private citizenry.

Although the Colonel's destination is unknown as of the present it is agreed thai any community would be indeed fortunate to have such a great American and so fine a gentleman l iving within its boundaries

On behalf of the Faculty, R.O.T.C. staff and student body, we of the C O W L wish you happiness and suc­cess in that which you may pursue and God's blessing on you and your family Good-bye and thank you. Col­onel Moss.

Ex Libris . . . UN: First Ten 1 ears Passive Possibilities

By Pierre Mailloux, *.'i9 With the acceptance of 16 new nations to

the UN, this organization gained a global aspect. This change, which is really the reali­zation of the original principles of the At­lantic Charter, gives the UN a scope that makes it no longer a defense pact, but a sin­cere attempt to gain extensive representative unity. Without doubt, Canada's proposal for inclusion of 12 free nations and 4 Iron Cur­tain countries broke the deadlock that plagued this organization for the past 10 years. A transformation such as this can but produce a re-evaluation of the UN's significance and future role in international diplomacy.

The pros and cons in this re-appraisal have been very well represented in the pub­lications of this past twelve months. For in­stance, Clark M. Eichelberger in his book, "UN: T H E FIRST T E N YEARS." prefers to accentuate the positive possibilities of a new-chapter in its life, while men like Orval Watts, "THE UNITED N A T I O N S PLANNED TYRANNY," and Chesly Manlv, "THE UN RECORD: T E X F A T E F U L YEARS FOR AMERICA," can report nothing favorable, A fourth descriptive survey, "AIMS OF T H E UNITED NATIONS," has al«o been recently compiled by the Department of Public Infor­mation, an organ of the appraised body.

Mr. Watts, an economic consultant, seems to be particularly disturbed by what he calls a trend toward governmental intervention in the American economy. In his opinion, this alien Marxist movement is turning Congres­sional politicians and State Legislative poli­ticians into tools. Joined by Mr. Manly, he concludes by naming the UN with its central headquarters in New York, the culpable agent, and finds salvation only in The Bricker Amentment.

In the eyes of Mr. Manly, who spent 8 years as a UN correspondent for the Chicago Tribune, the fact that Franklin D. Roosevelt was a prime mover of the United Nation is enough to condemn it. His argument natural­ly begins at Yalta. He by-passes the ques­tion of German Militarism in 1941, then pro­ceeds to expound the existence of the present defense coalition against the Soviet bloc. All this is simply that neither the UN nor the Russians is to be trusted.

Mr. Eichelberger, executive director of the American Association for the United Nations, is also disturbed by the perplexities of the 20th century. However, unlike Mr. Watts he sees salvation in the collective of the UN and not in the Bricker amendment, the increasing im­portance of the General Assembly as opposed to the decline of the Security Council is of great interest to him. As for the new inter­national personality which the United Nations has become Mr. Eichelberger is duly over­joyed for its prosperity is his also.

•Of Her" By Roger Assad, '57

Of you I think throughout the entire day. You are so vivid in my weary head. The thought of you continues though unfed. Oh, Image, are you implanted to stay? To reflect the bygone folly of our play Should I cast you out of my mind instead? But the loss of you I fearfully dread. To possess you I must so humbly pray. 0! foolish one. wake from this troubled sleep. Face the world with all its dire reality! Thoughts of my mind stray like frolicking

sheep And wander through the realm of absurdity. But from within I will forever review The pure, the simple, and enigmatic you.

And Here We Are As we the newspaper neophytes begin the

gargantuan task of keeping the COWL run­ning as successfully as it has been, we wish to thank our predecessors for their help in mak­ing our task an easier one. To the whole staff of last year, we owe a debt of thanks for the time which they have given so freely in or­der to acquaint us more fully with our duties.

A new staff taking over means the loss of many experienced senior staff members. In order to fill this gap, we are forced to send out a call for help. Certainly, among an enroll­ment of some 1536 students, there must be several or more students who are qualified to write or if not so, willing to give a little time in order to learn and profit by the experience as well as bettering their school publication. The COWL apparently, to many, means some­thing which should be there, something which should be taken for granted every Wednesday. The same holds true for The Alembic and The Veritas. The COWL is very often criticized by a few individuals who deem themselves as successors to Jonathan Swift and his satirical | pen.

Therefore, in order to begin things on the right foot we will make a frank statement of our forthcoming policies: 1. First come, first served; by this we mean that the news re­ceived earliest and deemed most important will receive precedence in publication. All news is welcome, that is, any news which does not slander or which is not classified under the title of sensationalism. 2. The COWL will give its own unbiased opinion on controversial campus issues. It will not serve as a weapon for one club to strike at another club or faction against faction. We will try to present the news in an informative and interesting way. Our work will be open to any constructive crit­icism. To the presidents of all regional clubs and organizations on campus, we issue an invi­tation to submit any news concerning their activities to any meml>er of the staff. When­ever possible we will try to have a staff mem­ber cover the story.

Because of the demand for their continued presence. Out of Proportion and Nebulous Notions will remain with us as long as possible. We urge all typists, experienced writers, and journalistic aspirants who can possibly do so, to join the staff of the COWL. Remember, better coverage means better news.

Feast Of St. Blaise Friday, in addition to being the First Fri­

day, -is also-the Feast of St. Blaise, patron of those afflicted by disease of the throat. This patronage and the custom of throat-blessing first l>ecame popular in the middle ages when the Saint was the object of much popular ven­eration, due in no small measure to the legend of St. Blaise and the boy with the fish bone caught in his throat. The Saint caused a won­derful cure for the boy.

In blessing the throats of the faithful, the priest prays that God, through the intercession of St. Blaise, might protect them from "diseases of the throat and other evils".

In keeping with this custom, the Chaplain's office has announced that those desiring to

% ® OUT OF i^p)PROPORTION

By J I M S A N T A N I E L L O

This past weekend I journeyed by train to New Y o r k for a visit and while en roule again collapsed into the strata of my desiccated intellect and recalled the tale of perhaps the most prol i f ic brother team ever to concurrently attend Providence College. The Ha l l Brothers were here during our school's Golden Age of students, the early nineleen-lhirl ies Though a year apart academically. Joe. the younger brother, was somewhat more socially ad­vanced than his fathers other son, Steve. It being the case that P. C. at­tempts to teach Her students to be "well-rounded gentlemen", Joseph, there­fore, became the more appreciated of the two.

Now, among his extra-curricular activities. Joe was an ardent member of the dramatic society, then known as. T H E T R A G E D I A N S . A s a matter of fact, he was the club's best actor. As a matter of fact, his brother Steve was somewhat of an actor too, but back to Joseph.

Joseph was a happy sort of k id and was a fine example of what a brother should be l ike He was always urging Steve to "get out of his she l l " and participate in some non-scholastic activities. Joe convinced his mother's other son to try his l i terary talents and Steve became a member of the C O W L . Though he was given a few minor news items to report, his pr imary duties on the paper were doing copy work and running errands.

W e l l , as t ime went by, both brothers became fairly well known on campus. Joseph's name was splattered across posters and news articles i n reference to his stage successes and Steve was always recognized as "Joe'a big brother". Steve didn't mind this c la im to fame; he was more interested in deeds than the glory they merited. The lad was beginning to enjoy wr i t ing and occasionally wrote a small edi tor ial or two.

Then it was " P l a y " time again and Joe's name was being buzzed around the quad as usual. The play lo be performed was yet to be decided but everyone knew that—no matter what, from Li t t l e Women to Nine G i r l s — Joe could make it a success. It was here that the H a l l brothers kept their "marker" for fame.

It seems that Steve had writ ten a play He had submitted it to the board of literates that made the decisions for T H E T R A G E D I A N S and they had accepted it! The experience was unique for both sons of their parents: Steve wrote the play; Joseph would star i n the play; Steve would cover i t i n the C O W L .

The name of Steve's play was I L i k e Oats. It was about a drunken cowboy, who. having decided to reform, sold his horse to a guy named Bean for enough money to go to college. The cowboy, whose name was Bob, just about gets past his first semester when he falls in love with a g i r l named Connie Rare. The two then got to become very fond of each other. Connie, however, is a happy-go-lucky g i r l while Bob is quite serious. The story" goes on and on unt i l f inally it's l ime for the cowboy to graduate. H e asks her to marry h im but she wants to wait awhile. In f inal disgust, w i th the curtain closing at just the right t ime and momentum. Bob buys back his horse and rides off the stage singing. "I love you k i d . but it 's too late; this bottle of gin is now my fate."

Steve's show and Joe's performance were hai led as the best ever seen in any Rhode Island college theater. The two gained immortal i ty on our campus when the new freshman dorms were recently named after them

A s 1 again became conscious of the " r ea l " world about me. 1 looked up from where 1 sat, focused my eyes on a sign which read, "Great Swamp Figh t" , and realized that I was on the return tr ip home What happened from when I collapsed into the strata of my desiccated intellect to when my eyes focused on that sign I ' l l probably never know. A s I re-read this story, 1 smiled at the coincidence of situations and thought to myself." I wonder what happened to Bob ."

Good luck Col . Moss and good night, Nancy, wherever you are

WDOM Receives New Equipment

John Gagnon. 56, chief engineer for the "Voice of Providence Col lege ' , W D O M , said today, that after many weeks of tedious work to improve W D O M ' s reception on the entire campus area, the station w i l l definite­ly be ready to resume operations with­in the next few days New equipment has been obtained by Rev Edward Halton, O P . physics professor, to replace the obsolete equipment used in previous seasons.

The station w i l l be modeled after the campus radio station at Purdue Universi ty which gained national prominence recently Program sched­ul ing wi l l include music, special notes of interest, and periodic checks of the latest news. Gerry Terpening, the agile station manager of W D O M , said recently that an attempt wi l l be made to obtain permission from the Ath­letic Director to set up epuipment to broadcast the remainder of the home basketball games. Although indefinite, broadcasting time has been planned for 3 00 to 5:00 and 7:00 to 9:00 Mon­days through Thursdays

Rifle Team Faces Tough Schedule

W i t h the coming of February, the sports schedule at P C w i l l be a mighty tough and busy one. The rifle team in particular w i l l f ind the going pretty rugged. Three Ivy league schools wi l l appear on the marks­men's telescope, those being Harvard . Yale and Brown The Univ . of Conn­ecticut is also going to provide some stiff competition. The winning of any of these matches wi l l constitute m i l d upsets, in rif le circles anyway. The underdog role serves only to make the marksmen gr im and deter­mined, the kind of spirit not always exemplified i n P . C. athletic en­deavors.

The pre-cxam jitters didn't hamper the team in the least as they blasted Boston U . by a score of 1393 to 1352, for their fifth league victory. The win was an easier one than at first antici­pated by the coach, Sgt. Lawson. Per­haps the contrast between the new range and the old garage was a l i t t le too shocking. The team members readily admitted that P. C. has a range comparable to their own fine range at B U The high scoring honors of the match went to A l Shunney of P C , who fired a 288. George Foley was a second with 284. John Janitz, Joe Stapleton and Jerry Farley rounded out the top five.

Getting back to the range, the N . R. A . bestowed the honor of select­ing P. C. as the site of the Southern N . E . Rifle League finals on March T h i r d Let's hope the boys can grab some of the trophies that w i l l be hang­ing around that day. But, the con­temporary obstacle of Brown on Sat­urday is the first to be conquered.

Friars Drop Heartbreaker; Rams Tonight; Lose To Harvardmen 4-1

By B i l l Flannagan. '56

^wvftUnc* ©oil eg*

A s I SEE IT vard could not dent the empty cage, the Fr ia rs blew some golden oppor­tunities, and time rol led by.

Icing the Puck There seems to be considerable

talk about the sad plight of the P .C. varsity sextet. W i t h a veteran team, and a winning record compiled against top opposition a year ago, the Rondcaumen's play in recent games must qualify as a disappointment from what had been expected. In order to have a winning team, you must have not only good players (there is no doubt that we have talent), but you also must have a ful l t ime effort. The team should be con­stantly practicing, and its members should give a 100'< effort both on and off the ice, taking each game as it comes up. The question of the year is, ' D o c s the Providence Col ­lege hockey set-up meet these obvi­ous requirements?"

Hats off to J i m Westwater, our new sports editor ,a t i t le well de­served. Bob RealI's scoring spree vs. Harvard moved him into the top twenty among the top scorers in eastern college hockey. E d Monahan ranks seventh, and Rod Gorman is i n the No. B spot. Goalie Charl ie F l y n n of Harvard had an easy time against the Fr iars i n the recent clash, only 23 saves, comparer) to 30 i n the two previous engagements combined.

The Fr ia rs travelled to Boston last night to meet B . C . in a return clash. Let 's hope there w i l l be no repetition of the previous encounter. Members of the Black and White were not im­pressed by the Terriers in their first showing. Next home game is Feb. 13th vs. Northeastern.

Leicesterites Defeat

Friar Yearlings

The P C yearlings met defeat last Saturday night at the hands of Leices­ter Junior College by a score of 60 to 42.

Al though the score seems one-sided, the victory was not wi th in reach for Leicester unt i l the end of the th i rd chapter when the frosh attack fizzled out Leicester zoomed to a 40 to 33 lead at the beginning of the 4th canto and from that point were never head­ed.

Fa i lu re to control the boards proved disastrous to the frosh as Leicester 's big men took over in the second half.

A revengeful Harvard sextet, shocked by the troops of Mr . Dick Rondeau, i n their first encounter, invaded the Rhode Island emporium of body checks etc., on the night of January 10th, wi th fire in their eyes, and this determination paid off as the Cooney Wei l land sextet cl imaxed a tough up h i l l battle wi th a 5-4 t r i -ump over the Fr iars . It was a heart-breaker for the locals as they saw an almost insurmountable lead go down the drain. W i t h six minutes remain­ing, and urged by their followers to " r o l l it up", the Providence margin was 4-1. This lead was buil t up main­ly in the second period and the be­ginning of the last stanza.

Harvard jumped off to a quick lead in the opening minutes, and that one goal was the only scoring in an evenly played first period. The defense, aided by a strong perform­ance from Mike McDonough, who guarded Harvard ace Bob Cleary l ike a hawk, appeared much improved from previous showings, although the offense sputtered. Harvard play­ed more methodically, which indi­cated their respect for us.

The middle frame produced a great resurgence, as the Rondeaumen, sparked by the "Remarkable Rocket", Captain Robert Real l . and his lamp-l ight ing associates Rod Gorman and E d Monahan, dominated the action and moved out front 2-1. Real l ta l l ied both goals, the first one being a tre­mendous effort. Bob took a long pass from McDonough. and skated in from Ihe blue l ine and fired it past goalie Char l i e F l y n n . despite a band of red jerseys, l i teral ly hanging al l over him. The second tally came in the f inal minutes as Real l c:>ppcd off a Monahan. Gorman bombardment with a rebound shot.

Th i rd period tallies at the eight minute mark by Defenseman Ray Blanchette from Ted Carter, and Gorman from Monahan, both rebound shots, increased the Black and White 's work ing margin to 4-1: then the Fr ia rs ran out of gas. L i t t l e and Sum­mers tal l ied successive goals on long shots that the previously invincible Providence defense, led by a strong effort by goalie E d Hornstein failed to stop. Then late in the game Ray Blanchette went off for slashing, and this penalty proved costly, as the Johnnies tal l ied twice to take the lead, much to the shock of the F r i a r partisans. The f inal minutes saw the Rondeaumen playing as many as five and six forwards, and although Har-

When the Rams come marching in tonight, the eyei of P . C . followers and players a l ike wi l l focus their at­tention on a slenderly built , blond haired youngster who has been pour­ing points through the hoop this sea­son in record breaking fashion In recent statistics released, B i l l V o n Wehye, a jun ior from Union Ci ty , New Jersey, has been averaging 25 points a game to rank among the nation's top scorers. A n d from the foul line, the blond bombshell paces the nation with a scorching W " . from the free throw l ine V o n Wehye along with scrappy Ron Marozzi and the big re-bounder E r i c Anderson w i l l lead Jack Guy's gang in their quest for a sweep of the two game series. U R.I won a 79-73 verdict down at Kings ton in December, despite one of the better efforts of Coach Mullaney s marching brigade. Mike Pascale paced P .C. in that game, while L ione l Jenkins pro­vided a pleasant surprise Let 's hope and pray the boyi provide some good playing tonight and let's have a good turnout to root them on.

What's wrong with the basketball team? Whose fault is it that they lose? The coach or the team? These were but a few of the many questions that ran through my mind after Saturday night's game

Everybody seems to blame the team, in many respects they are wrong, but is there something else—something more than meets the eye" The harder you attempt to arrive at an answer, Ihe more involved and confused you get.

W h y doesn't the ball club run—are they too lazy?—are they keeping training? It seems there are a few boys who arc making too much use of their l iberal t raining rules Then again, maybe Mr Mullaney doesn't want them to run Dur ing the course of the Georgetown game they had ample opportunities to run. Frankie T i r i co , for example, had a golden chance to drive in the th i rd quarter, but he held the bal l t i l l the rest of the players came down court. Was he told to do this?

Maybe I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that this was basket bal l , not football, that they play at A l u m n i H a l l How do you expect a man to score if you keep on putting him in and taking h im out. Last year Mike Pascale was the leading scorer with 381 points, but you can't expect Mike to duplicate those figures this season if you don't play him Mr . Mul laney, if you don't know by now who your ballplayers are, when wi l l you know? Why not put five men in and let them stay in for awhile They couldn't do any worse than they're doing now. If you st i l l think there are a few "individualists" on the team, don't play them. A t least put some boys in there who are t rying—give the people their money's worth.

The players seem to be too tense and worried on the court. They give the impression as if they don't know what they're doing The buzzer rings for a new man to come in and everyone turns around to see if he's going to be taken out. They definitely lack confidence

The last three ball games. A . I C , Springf ie ld , and Georgetown, were a disgrace. The caliber of ball was atrocious, a good high school team could have given a better account of themselves. The only standout in Saturday's game was Eddie Donahue — if it wasn't for h im. who knows what the score would have been?

Last year it was Mr . Cuddy's fault—if it rained poor Vince got blamed What's the answer this time?—is it possible that both men arc wrong.

It's obvious to a l l that the team can't play against a zone if we con­tinue the type of ball we are playing now; if any team uses the zone, we are l icked We' re not getting the proper shots and we're not getting any rebounds Y o u can't expect to shoot from 30 feet out a l l the time and hit The only way you ' l l get the proper shot is by passing the bail around swiftly and accurately Try to work it in for that good shot A s for the rebounding situation, there is no reason why the club shouldn't get more rebounds than they do If a team doesn't have two men who average 15 per game they are lost Jenkins and Ritch are (he squad's current leaders with averages of 8 7 and 7 9 respectively So what, if your man is a couple of inches taller than you, that doesn't mean he has to get every ball that comes off the boards. The answer to rebounding is position, and the only-way you get that is by hustle, hustle, and more hustle

The team is definitely lacking in the fundamentals If a ball player can't hit from the foul l ine by his second or th i rd year in college, he never w i l l The foul shooting average is 66 per-cent—last year it was 70 percent . A good club should average 75 per-cent of their shots Our average in the second half against Georgetown was a sensational 50 percent—11 for 22.

Where's the team spirit? There isn't a man, except maybe Frankie Wi l l i ams , whu can spark them It might be a good idea if a l i t t le of that Salk Vaccine is distr ibuted before this evening's game, instead of throughout the various cl inics in the ci ty Whatever happened to that so-called •college t ry?"

The Georgetown game was supposed to be one of the "big five." One for which reserve seats were necessary in order to get in Imagine paying two dollars ($2 00) to see a game l ike that Y o u can get a reserved seat for a major league baseball game for less than that price If this is the best we can do against minor colleges, what w i l l be the outcome against Holy Cross, and Notre Dame' ' What does a team l ike the Cross have to gain by taking us—yet they have everything to lose if they get beat. It only reflects upon the Athle t ic Department—great foresight on their part

Georgetown Quintet Slam Friars, 75-51

By Ed Lombardi L i s t Saturday night Ihe men of

Providence College losl their sixth game of the season to Georgetown by a 77-51 count The decision was clearcut. and to the spectators it seemed that the Black and White were never in the game The loss evened the F r i a r s record at six and six for the year, and four and four on their home court.

Providence College seemed very sluggish from the outset and aban­doned their rapid fire style of play for a more deliberate game Frank Ti r i co and Pat Grady both hit from the outside early in the first period, but that was about a l l P C rooters had to crow about in that frame The Hoyas took immediate control of the backboards and about 80 per cent of the rebounds The loss of these re­bounds was due to the fact that most of the Fr ia r attempts were from out­side and were not covered under the boards Coach Joe Mullaney's inser­tion of L ione l Jenkins into the lineup late in the period, coupled with some fine defensive work by Ed Donahue helped slow down the Hoyas immense­ly The first period, however, told the story A t the end of the ten minute mark, P C trailed Georgetown. 19-10

The second period showed more of the same tactics by both clubs Mul­laney put in Ralph Tedesco, Gordie Holmes, and Frankie Wil l iams, which helped to quicken the pace W i t h two minutes to go to the half. P . C , trail­ing 26-16. paced by Gordie Holmes, put on their best spurt of the eve­ning, closing the gap to nine points However, with Joe Missett, who tal l ied 19 and was high man for the evening, gunning them from the out­side and with Georgetown taking ad­vantage of the many P.C. fouls, the

Hoyas were able to retain a comfort­able margin of 34-22 nt the end of the half.

The third stanza saw Georgetown score 11 consecutive points before the Fr iars could register a single tally The Mullaneymen battled back grimly and. despite the handicap, had their best period of the night Holmes and Donahue continued to get the re-hounds but the Black and White could not swish the all important nets At the end of three periods, the visitors led 52 39

Georgetown blew the game widr open in the final period, outsconng P C . 25-12 " S k i p " Kararn, Bob Fer riter and Donahue tallied for the Fr iars in the waning minutes

Actual ly it was not a case of being extremely outclassed by Ihe opposi­tion, instead it was mostly fundamen­tal mistakes that cost the Fr iars the game Lack of driving hurt the team on several occasions Of course, the long layoff could have affected their play. Georgetown, fresh from n triumph over St Peter's, the previous night, showed no signs of weariness Coach Buddy Jeanette has some good boys in Joe Missett. Ken Pichette. and Dale Smith Saturday night, inciden­tally, was the first meeting between the two clubs Everything isn't on the glum side, however, because in spot* our team looked good Donahue's overall play was the best for the night Jenkins tapped in a beauty at the fourteen minute mark of the first half and Ralph Tedesco hit with a long one in the same stanza The

; boys are capable of playing a much better game, and chances are Captain Don Moran St Co. wi l l come through against UR1 tonight

Y a l e * sextet with exam pressure over buried the Fr iar varsity puck sters 10-3 After the first period when ihe Black and White applied the pressure the roof fell in and Dick Rondeau's charges never re covered

The init ial marker was recorded as Sophomore Paul Sainato slapped a len fooler past George Scherer bul . two minutes later Jack Brady of the home forces evened the count at 1-1 The Friars continuously peppered goalie Scherer but just couldn't get the puck past him

In the second period the game got rougher but less penalties were called. The tie was broken with less than two minutes gone when E l i captain Bob Ingalls put one past Ed Horn-stein's thrusting foot This was the beginning of the end for the visiting six. Even strict coaching strategy back fired when goal tender Horn-stein was lifted in favor of an extra forward with the Black and White +1 Jack Brady took the puck at the crucial face-off and out raced the Friars to tally on the open net Less than one minute was left now and Phi l Crawford took over in the P C nets.

Rough and tumble play continued in the last period Ed Monahan scored unassisted at 6:38 and John Sweeney counted on passwork from Bob Mc-Crink and Ray Blanchette However, this was hardly enough to get back into the game as Yale completely outclassed the visiting squad with a five goal outburst. At the finish P. C found itself at the very short end of the score. 10-3.

"This consecration demands of each Chris t ian that he take up his cross, each day, according to the example of his Master.

"Is it not necessary that a l l those Catholics who still enjoy their liberty should arrange themselves like an army around Our Lady, stronger against evil than an army arranged in battle, yet tender like the most lender of mothers, if they wish mercy lo be poured forth abundantly upon all sinners?

•Therefore, with all my strength.
