it and will be helping themselves

The three day workshop will be
conducted by Father Joseph J.
Mazaika, president of the South-
west Liturgical commission. The
aim of the program is to help the
students gain a better understand-

liturgical worship as well as to
provide practical suggestions for
bringing the new liturgy to the
campus and the delegates’ home
parishes.

Brother Raymond Fleck, CSC,
president, delivered a report on
the progress and future plans of
St. Edward’s to a meeting of the
Texas regional directors of the
SEU Alumni association at Lake-
way inn in Austin, Saturday, Sep-
tember 26. The title of the speech
was St. Edward’s University, To-
day and Tomorrow. Alumni direc-
tor Brother James Gorman, CSC,
then discussed the role of the re-
gional director.
The idea for this program was
conceived last spring by Schubel
and Father Johnston, OP, direc-
tor of student affairs. Surveys
were distributed to the various
dormitories on campus question-
ing the students as to whether or
not they would be interested in
acting as counselors to freshmen.
The favorable outcome of the sur-
vey prompted action by the Stu-
dent Life committee chairman.

a fantastic distortion of Barry

to clear up that misinterpretation
on this campus.”

'Welcome' Dance Ends
After Father Johnston address-
ed the meeting, Father Kadzie-
lawski, CSC, gave some helpful
hints to the group concerning
how they might advise the fresh-
men as regards to studies, social
life, budgeting time, social accep-
tance, etc. Father Kadzielawski
stressed the importance in "catch-
ing the mind” of the students and
trying to understand their prob-
lems.

The formal end of Freshman
week and orientation was wit-
nessed at the Welcome Freshmen
dance Saturday night, September
26.
The dance was acclaimed a
roaring success by all who at-
tended. The usually cynical upper-
classmen called it the best dance
of its type they had attended
since they came to SEU. Mr. Ar-
nold Mallory, Saga manager, was
moved to comment in superlatives

The credo of the program, and
what might well be called the
credo of the “new spirit” which
has taken hold at St. Edward’s
this year, was perfectly stated by
Father Johnston: “We can only
exist and grow to the extent that
we are willing to help one an-
other.”
Mike Orsak, leader of the
Young Democrats, also empha-
sizes the importance of govern-
ment to the individual. “College
exposes a little of all of life to the
student. Our campus is big enough
to support political action clubs
which strive to expose this area
of life to the student.”
at the end of the evening. Fresh-
man Matt Schmitz echoed the
class sentiment when he said,
“. . . (the dance) successfully ce-
mented the image of SEU pre-
sented during orientation and
served to relieve frustrations be-
fore the long semester ahead.”
Adding greatly to the success of
the evening was the sunset hoote-
nany held on the steps of Holy
Cross hall. Edsmen Santos Gal-
van, Bobby Travino, and Jerry
Wisinski combined their talents
for such a success that Bernie
Yun, SAC president, plans on
holding more in the future.
The success of the evening was
largely due to the efforts of Steve
Pedro, Dave Hardin, and other
sophomores who were in charge
of the dance preparations.
A letter received from the so-
cial chairman at Our Lady of the
Lake college was full of praise
for the SEU event. She hoped that
the OLL dance in October would
be as successful.
