Once again, St. Edward’s is gear-
ing up preparations for the 5th an-
nual Alumni Phonothon to be held
during the week of Oct. 17-20.
The Phonothon, first held in
October of ’78, is modeled after a
similar program hosted by Kings
College in Wilkes-Barre, Penn-
sylvania. The success of their pro-
gram brought on a temporary trade
between the two institutions.
King’s College sent a develop-
ment officer to St. Ed’s, which in
turn sent John Lucas, an admis-
sions consultant to Virginia.
In 1978, under the direction of
Margie Kintz, the Phonothon be-

Celebrating its anniversary this
Oct. 14, the Scarborough-Philips
Library remains the newest facility
on campus, but its progress is
hampered due to lack of funds.
The library houses more than
100,000 books, 16,000 periodical
volumes, and thousands of archival
documents and photographs. A
variety of meeting rooms and
classroom space is also available.
The library is open 85 hours a week
except during holidays. As many as
250,000 books may be stored in the
library.
Students and faculty may also
make use of the Curriculum Collec-
tion, which provides education
materials, elementary and secon-
dary texts, multi-media kits,
teaching aids, juvenile fiction and
non-fiction, curriculum guides and
bilingual materials.
University Archives contains
documents, photographs, and other
materials relating to the history of
Catholicism in Texas and the
Southwest, the Southwest Province
prevents all who need food from
getting it.
According to Knight, the WHP is
attempting to disseminate informa-
tion about world hunger. Said
Knight, “Education is a vital part
of ending world hunger. Educa-
tional institutions are primary
targets because people there are in-
terested in learning and know the
value of learning. Part of getting
people committed to ending hunger
is getting them educated.”
“In order to live in a stable
world, we have to end the hunger
situation,” asserts Ms. Knight. “If
the current situation isn’t solved
within 50 to 100 years, I don’t see
how the world could be stable at all.
I don’t mean that as a warning, but
we all want to live in a stable world.
Ending hunger is a key to stability.
“A lot of people interested in the
World Hunger Project are also in-
terested in ending war. The only
way to have a stable world is to end
war and hunger.”

tained by calling Deborah Vanko at

The students serving on the board
in addition to the above committee
members are: John Cernohous,
Denise Klodnicki, Pete Porras,
Richard Ginn, Eva Munoz and An-
na Marie Flanigan.
Also included are Melody Ben-
net, Ted Stavinoha, Dennis Kane,
Teresa Christo, Bob Treasure,
David Koempel, Chubby Olivares
and Tom Bagby.
Mr. Gatti’s, Inc., the national
pizza chain with corporate offices
here in Austin, has become the 10th
business to contribute to the Stu-
dent Scholarship Board.
Contributing $1,000 to the fund,
Gatti’s joins other businesses
already committed to the program:
McNair Appliances, KMS Ven-
tures, Communication Specialists,
Arthur Anderson, Marcel Rocha
and Associates, Statehouse Print-
ing, Texas Commerce Bank, Ander-
son-Wormley Insurance, and
Mitchell Energy. Bert Maloney, a
member of the Board of Trustees,
has also contributed a scholarship.
The Student Scholarship Board is
a program conceived by students,
for students, in order to provide
financial assistance and reward ser-
vice to the University. Teams of
students, accompanied by a staff
St. Edward’s will sponsor a five-
hour consciousness-raising work-
shop-seminar on world hunger
tomorrow.
Dorothy Knight will host the free
seminar, which is co-sponsored by
the Student Activities Council and
the World Hunger Project.
The workshop coincides with
World Hunger Day, Oct. 16. Lec-
tures, film presentations, brochures
and literature are scheduled for the
Saturday afternoon briefing.
Moody Hall will be the site for the
noon beginning.
Knight is an English instructor at
St. Edward’s and Austin Communi-
ty College. A graduate of South-
west Texas State University, Knight
has taught for eleven years. The
World Hunger Project has trained
Knight to conduct the briefing.
The World Hunger Project
(WHP) is a non-political organiza-
tion dedicated to the eradication of
hunger through education and food
production increases. WHP be-
lieves that there is enough food on
earth, but the distribution system
came the first organized appeal at
St. Edward’s aimed at alumni to en-
courage contributions to the
University.
Last year’s goal of $100,000 was
met and bettered by $2,000. The
University Relations Office is op-
timistic that this year’s goal of
$115,00 will also be met.
According to John Lucas, “The
Phonothon has become a neces-
sity...the University is budgeted
already for Phonothon funds.”
The Phonothon has been re-
vamped this year to further
guarantee the needed monies.
Students and volunteers who are
making the calls are being formally
trained. Donations may now be
made with Visa or Mastercharge
of the Brothers of Holy Cross and
South Austin. A seven-volume
book on the History of the Catholic
Church in Texas (which relates the
history until 1950) was begun here
at St. Edward’s. A conference con-
cerned with the starting of Volume
8 is under consideration. The con-
ference would take place at St. Ed-
ward’s.
Recent acquisitions include an ex-
tensive collection of science fiction
books, donated by Br. Simon Scrib-
ner, C.S.C. Presently housed in the
Archives, it numbers over 600
paperbacks. Centennial Commis-
sioner Bob Strong has donated a
90-volume Tolkien collection with
the stipulation that it remain with
Scribner’s donation. A 31-volume
set of books about pioneer women
was also recently acquired.
Additional funds are necessary to
develop the current facilities.
Books recently donated by the
LB J Library at the University of
Texas are in need of restoration.
The estimated cost of repairing the
hand-sewn volumes is about $100
per book.
