The disclosure was made in a report issued by California Senator Clair Engle. USF received three separate grants totaling $51,250. The total amount pumped into California by the Foundation set the pace for the nation, Engle reported. "This is more funds than any other state received," Engle said. "The fact that California plays so important a role in the National Science Foundation program indicates that the United States—to an ever increasing degree—relies on California for scientific leadership." The National Science Foundation, an agency of the Federal Government, was established in 1950 to advance scientific progress in the U.S. by sponsoring research, furthering science education and rec ommending policies with respect to the Federal Government's role in strengthening science. N.S.F. does not itself conduct research or carry out educational projects. Senator Engle said that California colleges and universities received 123 gr.ants totaling $4,069,,380 in support of science education in 1962 from N.S.F. He said that another $2,881,- 090 in Foundation funds went to 741 U.S. college students from outside California who won N.S.F. fellowships and selected to study in California. Some 491 more fellowships, totaling $2,082,127, were awarded to California students—some of whom chose to study in other states but who had received their basic scientific education in California schools. The remaining approximately $15 million the Foundation awarded to California was for basic research and it was awarded to schools, professors and graduate students. USF grad receives Marquette grant 1962 USF graduate George Devine has been awarded a scholarship to Marquette University, where he will pursue a master's degree in theology, the FOGHORN learned this week. Devine, who begins studies at the Jesuit school next month, was preceded by another '62 English major, Kenneth R. Weeks, who began graduate work in theology there, also on a scholarship, in September. Both aspire to a career in teaching. Lay Theology "The possibility of laymen teaching theology has been realized in many Catholic high schools and colleges," Devine said in a FOGHORN interview, "although right now it's more prevalent on the East coast than here." "And this has been met," he continued, "by mutual enthusiasm from laity and clergy.

Then follows the most tranquil respite in the academic year, when students enjoy the 13-day lull with such exploits as skiing, trips to Port Lauderdale, or just plain sleeping. In order that it might not provide worldly distractions from the monastic aura which surrounds campus during 'his highly contemplative exam period (and also so that its editors may pass their tests), the FOGHORN is suspending publication for the fall semester with this issue.

She continued, "We in Catholic education have flopped in stimulating our students to make any artistic mark on our culture, especially in the realm of sacred art." Sr. Emelia made the further comment that, "it is time, now that the Church is coming of age and moving into her own in this country, for the American Catholic to take his responsibility to our culture seriously and to make some suitable and lasting impacts upon his country and his Church. Schools "In large that sense of responsibility must be nurtured in our schools, and that impact must find its beginnings and impetus with our students. Up to the present in so many instances we have failed to give the Catholic student a knowledge, experience, and appreciation of the Fine Arts."

Men's Choir Devine's interest in matters theological was exhibited in his three-year collegiate career when he founded and directed the University Men's Choir, a student liturgical choir for University Masses and similar functions, from 1960 to 1962.
