On e thousand dollars in prizes are offered and the list of judges boasts such notables as H. V. Kaltenborn, Donald Ogden Stewart, and Jean Starr Untermeyer. The proposed contest is a typical attempt to spread anti-Fascist propaganda and at the same time to ignore Communistic activity. BY JAl\:IES SUPPLE By the time one is ten years old he should, the cynics tell us, take disappointment as the natural order of things but this reviewer is still marveling at his own disappointment in You N ever Kno w . You N ever Know is one of the weakes t, most ineffectual mu sical shows of the past decade. The chief fault of Cole Porter's show is its lack of humour. Never have I seen such an unfunny musical comedy. It has neither s parkling subtlety nor belly-laugh vulgarity but only a deadly flatness like s tale beer. The lines are, for the most part, straightforward with little attempt at humour or anything else. If there were only a few Jines of this type, it would not be so bad, but the show is extremely talky and the result is most agonizing. The musical numbers are few and far between and the long intervals between are filled with the dullest dialogue imaginable. Webb Disappoints Also adding up as a disappointment are most of the cast. Clifton Webb lacks a suitable partner and suitable material and, as a result, only once or twice is he at all the Clifton Webb of past performances. Lupe Velez is, for the most part just blah. She can't sing and she can't dance. She is horribly miscast and every attempt she makes only accentuates this fact. It is true, of course, that the Velez imitations are still funny but these impersonations, brief as they are, are the only saving grace of her performance. Toby Wing never did have any talent but she was pretty in a pert sort of way. Now Miss Wing has lost her looks and her inability to cope with the theatre is, for this reason, more glaringly apparent than ever before. The only one of the cast of You Never Know who is at all fortu-nate is Libby Holman. Miss Holman has a small part, a part so small as to be almost negligible in view. of Miss Holman's importance. She is entrusted with two of the show's leading songs, one of which, "You Never Know," is destined to be a popular song as soon as its radio rights are r e leas ed. Miss Holman is at all times sure of herself and she acts and s ings in a manner which indicates that she is quite capable of mastering roles far more taxing than her present one. Handsome Sets Mr. Porter's musical is nicely costumed and has some good looking sets, only one of which is on an elaborate scale. This particular setting is, however, one of the nicest sets I've seen. The supporting cast is nothing to write home about . Even Rex O'Malley, who was so good in Cami lle, seems colorless and ineffectual. The direction, the worst I've ever witnessed in a professional mus ical comedy, is largely responsible for the cast' s mediocre and often frightful performance. There is still a possibility of You Never Know being worked up to hit proportions but a lot of work will be necessary. More music and more specialties will be needed and Lupe Velez will have to be tossed out as soon as possible. The book must undergo drastic revision and have its humour heightened and its present talklness eliminated. The music should be spotted more effectively and the present finale junked in its entirety. There are no doubts that You Never Know can be made into something good but more songs like "Alpha to Omega" and "You Never Know" are needed 1md comedy wlll have to be added. Until such a time as these changes are made Yott Never Know is a good reason for staying at home to read a book. The American Student Union employed the same tactics in the recent Peace Day celebrations. All student demonstrations that merited any amount of space in the daily press were demonstrations against the Fascist countries; demonstrations which overlooked Communistic countries and Communistic propaganda. II 'Wisdom CThe-q Foster . ~ Loyola's Peace Day observance was singular in several ways. We were specifically disassociated from the American Student Union, we did not rave against Fascism, and we did not clamor for the removal of the embargo on Loyalist Spain. We merely stated the Catholic position on the question. As a result we were practically ignored in the news items. Our failure to make the headlines is of course of no consequence; it is merely evidence that we kept out of all Communistic activity. We have the greater satisfaction of knowing that instead of spreading the smokescreen of anti-Fascism, we engaged in a more rational consideration of the peace problem. • $15.000.000 Provided for the Continuation of the N. Y .A. Usually, foreign comment on the United States is interesting only for its complete failure to appreciate the things it discusses. To a rather large extent, Donald AUwater's article on the Catholic Church in this country in the latest Dublin Review misses the criticism directed at most such articles. Frankly admitting the limitation of his knowledge, Mr. Attwater still does put on paper his impressions of some of the more striking features of a Catholic life in this country , and if all his impressions are not complimentary, they are all worth consideration. He notes for instance that Catholics in America are in many ways indistinguishable from their secularist and neo-pagan neighbors, that this is particularly notable in what he seems to regard- and rightly- as one of the inexplicable mysteries of our situation, the attitude toward the negro.

The Chicago City Manager Committee is still at work. Interesting at present are their efforts along three lines-a campaign to have the enabling legislation submitted to the legislature at the special session, a campaign for funds to carry on their work, and the organization of a youth division. Such activity points at the very least to a movement of significance to Chicago citizens, and, after the debate of last Sunday at the Charles Carroll Forum, to Chicago Catholic citizens. Certainly, those interested in the future of the city cannot afford to neglect the opportunity to determine how they are to be governed. • • • Returning to the theme of Catholic publications in this fair land, we do think a word of commendation, however belated, is due to the new staff of the Commonweal, who are giving us a lively, vigorous, weekly magazine, and a word of regret for the passing of the old. While Commonw eal and America continue their staunch and intelligent selves, American Catholics have a good deal to be proud of. But it is always a serious question how long they can continue, and, even more important, how their influence can be increased and others added to their number, if American Catholics refuse them the support they badly need and unquestionably deserve.

HO-HU!\1 The head of the department of classical languages, a humorist in his own right, relays a Roosevelt story which you may or may not have heard. It seems that in this tale President Franklin Roosevelt died and was admitted to h eaven. At his request, St. Peter gave him permission to go about reorganizing heaven , but when Roosevelt finally told him his plans St. Peter said no, that wouldn't do, since God would have to play second fiddl e. So Roosevelt was consigned to the lowe r regions . There Satan greeted him . " Who are you ?" he wanted to know. "President Roosevelt, " F. D . R. replied with his usual aplomb. "Well ," said the d evil, "we can't admit you; we don't want anything to do with the New Deal. We had six of your WP A workers down here and the dam fools let the fire go out!"

In fact, for sheer beauty, we haven't seen anything like it since Keats' "Ode to a Nightingale." Note the clever rhyming of 'crack' and 'lack,' the word-power 'as for humor' and 'quite a lack,' the effective repetition of 'old Loyola,' and the celestial imagery' stands and blinks.' But the last line! Ah, there the Poetess Laureate of Mundelein has really outdone herself. Beside its majesty and pounding rhythm, Marlowe's "mighty line" would look like something from a sixth grade composition. Nevertheless, while this may be great poetry, the theme betrays, shall we say, a certain lack of discriminating intelligence? And now- hold your breaths-the HO-HUM Academy Award winners of 1938! 1 .

The meet was held in unfavorable weather, under a steady rainfall and high winds. The first event of the day, the mile run, was won by Tom Layden, who defeated Milwaukee's ace distance man, Sobrowski, in the time of 4:41. The half mile was captured by the Teachers and Layden took second place for the Ramblers. Beau Beaten In the 440-yd. run Milwaukee came through to win first and second place with Beaureguard of Loyola coming in third. In the 100- yd. dash Elson and Tobin of Loyola took second and third respectively while Elson repeated to capture third in the 220-yd. run. In the high hurdles big George Clark was the sole scorer for the Ramblers with a third, but in the low hurdle race Co-captain Johnny Nurnberger breezed through to win with a new track record. The time was 26.2 which was fast considering the shape of the track and the strong head wind that the Rambler ace had to run against. In the two-mile run Milwaukee's veteran distance man, Sobrowski, won handily. The best that the Loyola men could do was a third by Paul Wagner. The final running event, the mile relay, was won by Milwaukee State after a close driving finish. Where Are Strongmen? The State Teachers outfit slammed the Loyola weight men in both the discus throw and the shot-put but in the javelin Vinny Graham was able to cop a third. The pole-vault was taken by Milwaukee's high flier, Chet Andresen, who vaulted 11'6"; Bud Knoll and Bill Looney of the Ramblers notched a second and third place respectively. In the high jump Loyola leaped to a three-way tie for first with Looney, Sierks, and Graham starring for the home team. Arts Trounce Law; 16 Frames of Comedy After 16 innings of mixed ball play and horse-play, the Arts AllStars defeated the Law school 13- 11 last Wednesday. Heavy hitting and weak defenses were offered by both teams throughout the drawn-out contest. Barristers Ed Calihan, Bob Haskins, and Bernie Brozowski kept the visitors in the game all the way while Jack Reilly paced the Arts men with two homers and other less noteworthy blows.

Red-Hot Zephyrs Upset Dolans 3-2 Staving off a determined ninth inning rally by the Dolan-Rocks, the Zephyrs, dark horse entry in the I-M league, last week swept to a 3 to 2 victory and the senior loop leadership in the biggest upset registered this season. The Rocks had previously trounced the Gaels to gain a short lived hold on first place. After two hard fought frames in which neither team scored, the Zephyrs pushed across two runs to jump ahead of the Dolans at the beginning of the third inning. Pudgy Bill Gibbons and Ray Pellicore opened the stanza with hits. The pair advanced on an infield out and raced in after Jack Smith had rammed a liner to deep left. Hits by Smith and Johnny Devaney accounted for the third Zeph run in the fifth frame after two men had flied out. The Rocks picked up a tally in the seventh and had another across in the ninth before AI Burke and Pellicore, Zeph pitcher and shortstop respectively, bore down and erased the last Dolan hitter with the tying run on third. Dolans Beat Gaels In one of the two slugfests which preceded the pitching duel by a day, the Dolans belted out a 14-11 triumph over the Gaels. Gart Winkler, husky Dolan centerfielder, and Larry Cofone, peppery little third sacker of the Irish, led their respective teams in hitting. Winkler contributed a game-winning home run in the eighth ""ith Toomim aboard, while Cofone crashed out two round-trippers and a pair of singles to place his team twice in the lead only to see the advantage disappear before a Rock (Continued on page 8, col. 1) The Loyola-De Paul softball tilt underwent final planning last week with the definite selection of May 20 as the date of the impending clash. At the same time, early ballot returns in the News contest to pick the opening lineup showed perennial diamond kingpins of the Arts campus in the favored position. Although returns have not yet been made from the other schools, interest is at a white heat on the Med and Dent campuses who have promised a flood of votes early next week. Kautz Tops Wibs Kautz, Gael speedster, jumped into a lead in the infield race by picking up 19 first-place votes. He is followed by Bill O'Brien, hardcourt teammate and Pi Alph stalwart, and little Davy Toomim, recently exonerated in the News-Ramker sensation. Leading the outfielders is the incomparable Johnny "Bummer" Hughes of the Alpha Delts, with 19 votes. Bill Ryan of the Zephyrs, who is home-running the soph team into the baseball pennant, is one vote behind. Hoge Ahead The pitcher selection is a tossup, although George "Iron Wing" Hogan heads the list with 15 tallies. Chunky Dick Boland leads the catchers with a total of 14. Jack Driscoll, who has picked up 17 votes, is the early favorite for the manager's job.

All major monogram winners, minor letter holders, and Intramural managers are eligible to attend. According to President Morrell Scheid, the meeting has been called in an effort to make the club one of the more active organizations on the campus. This meeting will determine the future life of the club. If enough interest is shown, the club will plan definite activities for the remaining part of this year and for next year. Those who are unable to attend the meeting but wish to be active in the club, may hand in their names to Mike Novak or Jack Driscoll of the membership committee. The Senior Ball was graced by the presence of Miss Rickey, daughter of Branch Rickey, baseball tycoon of the St. Louis Cardinals. Kumbacker Johnny ''Bummer" Hughes, recently wa.lved on by every club in grade school league, is leading outfielders in all-star vote in amazing comeback. RodmenBow In Two Meets For the first two hours of the Western State Teachers college tennis meet last Friday on the Arts campus courts, it looked as though the Rambler netmen might turn a trick performed only twice before this year and then by power-house Big Ten teams-to beat the powerful squad from Kalamazoo. The Teachers copped the first two singles in short order, but it seemed certain that the last three would be won by the Maroon and Gold. Two of the three potential Loyola winners fell by the wayside, and a pedagogical sweep of the doubles gave Western State a six to one victory over the Rodmen. Ike Not Needed Matt Chandler of Western State, playing in the number one spot in the absence of Captain Ike Ruehl, proved too much for Gene Dubay and won handily, 6-0, 6-4. Bill Janik fell before Bob Olson, 6-1, 6-2. Norb Hruby with deadly volleying ran up a one-set, four gamesto- none, and thirty-love lead over State's Willis Judd before he fell apart and lost, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4. Jack Sims downed Bill Lynch 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 . Don Swafford came through with the sole Loyola victory of the day over Olin Vanderberg at the number five spot, 6-3, 6-4. Should Be Last Chandler a;J.d Olson of State defeated Dubay and Lynch, 6-2, 6-2, as Sims and Judd were taking the measure of Hruby and Janik, 6-1, 6-1. The meet loss leaves the Ramblers \vith two victories and three losses for the season, but with comparatively easy sailing to the end of the eleven-meet schedule. Aurora comes to the Arts campus courts tomorrow, and on Saturday (Continued on page 8, col. 2) Playing in the face of a driving rain and a gale wind, the Maroon and Gold golf team crushed Bradley Tech 12-6 last Saturday to make it three straight for the season. The high scores carded by both teams were indications of the fact that the "ornery" elements greatly handicapped the players. Bill Limacher was the day's low man with a 77 in the morning round. Captain Joe Lynch was runnerup in the same frame with a 78. Doubles Click In the first doublee match Lynch and Limacher defeated Hill and Milton, 2-1 . Following on their heels came Gil Jorgenson and Jim Lindsay who blanked Michal and Smith, Techmen, 3-0. Lynch and Hill divided their singles affair 1 'h -1 'h. The latter, t h e Bradley coach, was forced to compete when one of the visitor's men became ill. Limacher whitewashed Milton, 3-0; and Jim Lindsay triumphed over Michal, 2-1. Jorgenson dropped the only match of the day. Davenport Soft? This coming Saturday the Ramblers, in quest of four in a row, journey to Davenport, Ia., where they will meet St. Ambrose. Captain Lynch will be pitted against the Iowa state champ. The team is in good shape and victory is expected. Barnyard Tourney Swings into Fourth Pitching their way to victory, eight more barnyard golfers entered the fourth round of the Intramural horseshoes tourney las t week. Ed Britt became odds on favorite to cop as he soundly trounced Art McCourt 21-10, 21-12. Flo Verhulst looked in earnest while eking out a win over Bob Schiavone, 21-14, 11-21, 21-15; and Lou Benedict took down "Peoria" Bill Flanagan 21-7, 21-19. Bob Dore and Rog Sayre won handily over Jim Lally and Charlie Mullenix. Dick Sierks and Gil DeMilliano hooked-up, and the handball champ appeared to be somewhat of a novice at the art of shoe pitching as he dropped the match to his Dolan-Rock teammate. Bruce Berens and Bob Koepner are the only freshmen to remain in the tournament through their triumphs over Bob Bremer and Leo Adams. Dan CUnningham, '37 king of the barnyard men, is scheduled to meet Joe Citro and George Fitzgerald for the right to enter the fourth notch. Cunningham was pre-tourney favorite to repeat. Tbe fourth round, which starts today, will see twelve men in action who have survived a record field of 185. There is no all-Star ballot printed in this issue.

Going into the final lap, the Alpha Delts make their last stand against the Pi Alpha who are · at this point hot on their heels. Also expected to figure in the stretch are the Dolan-Rocks, defending champs, the Gaels, and Loyolans. Twelve teams will compete. Track events will include the 100-yd., 220-yd., and 440-yd. dashes, the 110-yd. low hurdles, and the half-mile and mile runs. The discus, shot, high jump, and broad jump will make up the field events; and the 880-yd. relay will feature a team from each organization. Jack Reilly, fleet-footed Campion demon, is sharpening his spikes in an attempt to repeat in the century and the low hurdles. The eighth of a mile is open to all comers since Paul Brosnahan, last year's winner, will not return. Harry Loefgren, quarter-mile king, will be back, while the varsity track team has claimed the services of Bill Barrett in the mile and Bill Wendt in the discus. "Lick" Hayes will endeavor to stave off challengers to his crown in the high jump and broad jump.
