formances.
Filmed in color on location in
Istanbul, the beauty and squalor
of this exotic city lash across the
screen, leaving an unforgettable
impression on the mind of the
viewer. And, at the movie’s end,
the audience is left with the con-
viction that they have seen a
movie worth seeing.

In addition to the National
Science foundation grant of $4,900,
the biology department at SEU
has received $3,000 from the Re-
search corporation of New York
city in response to a budget re-
quest for obtaining new equip-
ment.
The money was obtained when
Brother Joseph Cain, CSC, assist-
ant professor of biology and di-
rector of the undergraduate re-
search program, requested the
money for several specific items
needed for a well-equipped biology
lab. These include: an auto-
pipette, pH meter, spectrophoto-
meter, gyratory agitator, air-con-
ditioning, vacuum-pressure equip-
ment for Seitz bacteriological fil-
ters and a lighted environment
on a diurnal cycle. The budget
request was granted in full.
The company has been hailed
by critics from coast to coast as
the most exciting and unusual
Flamenco attraction currently
touring the US.
In cities from Montreal to Hon-
olulu, audiences have cheered the
young company, and critics have
dusted off their shiniest superla-
tives to describe it. “With those
who know Spanish dancing best,”
said the critics of the Washing-
ton Evening Star, “it’s Jose Mo-
lina all the way!” Other critics
across the country have described
the production and company as
“explosive” “spectacular,” “sheer
perfection,” “breath-taking” and
“the best—the very best.”

“World population and food re-
sources” will be the topic for the
lecture by Father Gabriel Bowe,
OP, STLR, PhD, to be given
Wednesday, November 18, at 8:00
pm in the Dining hall.
Father Bowe is a noted Irish
economist who has written over
twenty-five articles on economics
and social philosophy, in addition
to two books on the subject.
Having received degrees in hu-
manities, philosophy, theology
and economics, he taught at sev-
eral universities around the world
and, until he retired, was presi-
dent of the College of St. Francis
de Sales in Nagpur, India. Re-
cently, he has been making a lec-
ture tour of the United States,
speaking on social and economic
topics.
Father Bowe was first referred
to Father Maurice Johnston, OP,
director of student affairs,
through the Dominican grape-
vine. Father Johnston then
brought him to the attention of
the Lecture Series committee,
who arranged for his appearance
here.
The controversial nature of the
subject, broiling with popular
“Come with me to Istanbul,
darling! .Let’s do something nice
and crooked,” Melina Mercouri
seductively purrs into the camera
during the opening scene of
Topkapi, and the camera anxious-
ly follows her from Paris, to
Greece, to Istanbul, where it wit-
nesses the planning and exe-
cution of one of the most out-
standing, daring and suspenseful
robberies ever beheld by its eye.
Melina is the ringleader of a
group of international thieves,
and the object of their affection
is a sultan’s jewel-encrusted
dagger, elaborately guarded in the
Topkapi Palace.
Her gang includes Maximilian
Schell, the master crook who
both organizes the robbery and
satisfies her nymphomania; Rob-
ert Morley, a nonchalant oddball
who designs the ingenious utensils
for the robbery as he concomit-
antly pops gum drops into his
mouth; Peter Ustinov, a
"schmo,” with a hearty appetite
for pornography, who serves as
bumbling accomplice for the
group; and Gilles Segal and Jess
Hahn—two ex-circus performers
employed to carry out the actual
robbery. All of these characters
commendably attain the goal of
the director (Jules Dassin) and
writer (Monja Danischewsky).—a
crazy, tongue-in-cheek comedy
which laughs right in the face of
all international jewel thieves.
The director of such outstand-
ing films as Never on Sunday and
Phaedra, Dassin has well estab-
lished himself as a master in the
art of directing. And in Topkapi,
his talents are once again evi-
dent. The robbery scenes are skill-
fully fed with fast, crisp jolts,
which leave the audience in a
palsy of suspense. He handles his
actors with great care, and Mer-
couri, Ustinov and Morley especi-

"We are responsible for our areas of influence. We are the
mediators between the Church and the world.”
Father Harry Baker, CSC
Sermon of November 8, 196 4
We are proud of our university; we are proud that our uni-
versity is beginning to grow and, through the self-study pro-
gram, perfect its methods of education, remedy its lack of
social outlets for the students and improve its campus com-
munity life. We are proud also of the way this year’s freshman
class, as a whole, has leaped into the middle of our activities
and volunteered to help us grow.
This year we have heard much about the “new spirit” at St.
Edward’s. We come across this term in the self-study; we hear
it from our faculty and administrators. This “new spirit” is a
type of esprit de corps, of Christian love for one another, of
cooperation with teachers and friends, of constructive criticism
and deserving praise. But most important of all, it is a spirit
of community cooperation with the purpose of making St.
Edward’s a better place to live, a better place to learn, a better
place to love.
If we are to accomplish this purpose, we must all do our
share. Last week, Brother Dunstan told his Capers cast, “There
are no small parts in this show, only small people who cannot
fill those parts.” When Brother Dunstan told this to his cast,
they knew he meant business. They interpreted it as a challenge
to fit into their parts. They accepted the challenge and they met
it. We thank them. And we apologize to them. We apologize
to them as we must apologize to the majority of our audience,
to Miss Brenda Klein, our sweetheart, and to our guests from
off campus. We must apologize to them for the actions of a few
“small people,” who were not in the show, but in the audience.
There were a few, a very few, men in the audience who
couldn’t enjoy the show in the natural manner. They added
to the program with animalistic sound effects; harassed Mr.
Hardin with crude comments, interrupting his lines. One of
them even raised his hand in front of the spotlight, casting
shadows on the curtains during the performance.
These are the people we must apologize for. These are the
ones who insulted our guests. These are the ones who, when
a fellow student brought two young ladies into the Dining hall
two weeks ago, shouted and carried on so that the girls were
forced to leave. These are the ones who chose the Saturday
evening of the NFCCS convention on our campus to come to
dinner drunk. These are the “small people.” We do not believe
they are bad people, we don’t propose they are bad. They just
can’t fit into their parts of the “new spirit.” These are the
ones—and others like them, naturally—who we must weed
out. These are the ones whom Father Johnston spoke of when
he said “. . .. those few who cannot conform to this ‘new spirit’
will be asked to withdraw. We have no room for them.”
The Hilltopper joins Father Johnston in saying, “We have
no room for them.” And we join him and the rest of the
concerned student body in an all-out effort to remove from
our university all those things which are not proper to a
Catholic university. For it is time that we accept the “priest-
hood of the laity” which Father Baker spoke of in last Sun-
day’s sermon. This also is part of the “new spirit,” its fulfill-
ment being that St. Edward’s graduate Christian men, living
Christian lives, bringing Christ to the world and bringing the
world to Christ.
Therefore, we must cooperate; we must work; we. must
pledge ourselves to the common good. We must do these things
now and we must do them completely. We must fit into our
parts and, if necessary, continue casting.
