sah ££An foghoan Volume 61, No. 19 Friday, April 7, 1967 SK 1-3118, SK 1-3119 Committee against Vietnam plans movie, faculty letter Theologian Danielou to speak on campus The USF Ad Hoc Committee Against the War in Vietnam is planning a number of events for next week in conjunction with the Spring Mobilization Committee's week of national protest. Town hall ASUSF will sponsor a town hall on "Responsibility and Vietnam" at 11 a.m., in the Harney plaza, on Tuesday, April 11. Speakers for the town hall will be: James McCauley, STJ., instructor of psychology; Dr. James Haag, associate professor of physics; Robert McKenzie, associate professor of political science; and Tom Fitzpatrick, Foghorn editor. The regularly scheduled speak-out will follow the town hall. The week's activities will culminate in two marches against the war on April 15, in San Francisco and in New York. Co-chairmen of the newly- formed campus group are Tom Fitzpatrick, editor of the Foghorn, Tom McMenamin, ASUSF president, and Bob Proctor. The USF ad hoc committee supports the following three points, similar to those proposed by United Nations secretary general U Thant: • Cessation of U.S. bombing of North Vietnam; • De-escalation of the ground war in Vietnam; • Inclusion of the National Liberation Front in peace talks. The committee intends to gather a USF contingent to participate in the march itself, which will begin at Second and Market at 10 a. m. on Saturday, April 15, and end with a rally at Kezar stadium. The Spring Mobilization Committee, organizers of the marches, consists of various groups opposed to the war, including segments of labor, students, farmers, c 1 e r gy, minority groups, and professional and businessmen. The USF marchers hope to join with Santa Clara and St. Mary's in forming a Catholic students section in the march. The anti-war group is pres ently circulating an open letter among the faculty explaining the purpose of the march, in the hope of garnering faculty support. Also on the agenda is "Language of Faces," a Quaker film dealing with the individual's responsibility to face the issues of war and peace. It will be shown on Thursday, April 13, at 11 a.m., in Harney 232. Admission will be free. A gimmick Presidential candidate Alex Monterosa lost out this week to his campaign manager, notoriety-wise at least, who adopted the mien of a well-known favorite and the transportation methods of a third-grader to spread the good news of Monte rosa's candidacy. Jean Danielou, S.J., noted French theologian, philosopher, and expert on Vatican II, will lecture on campus next week. He will speak to theology classes (with lectures open to the public) on Monday, April 10, and Tuesday, April 11. The first lecture will be delivered Tuesday, in French, on "La Liberte Religieuse." It will begin at 4 p.m. in the Phelan Hall dining room. "Christian and non - Chris- Student body elections fouled by rule violations Tom Fracisco, head of the Board of Student Control, told the Foghorn that the BSC ini- ated suits in student court against three ASUSF office- seekers for "violations of campaign rules." Charged with violations were Steve Lucia, presidential candidate, and Joe Augustino and John Torpey, both vice- presidential candidates. Fracisco declined to reveal specific charges against the three, but he said that they were brought to court Wednesday evening. The Foghorn went to press before the cases were heard, but if proven guilty, the candidates would be disqualified from their respective races. Other candidates for offices are: • President: Rod Blonien and Lou Giraudo; • Vice - president: Will Kempton; • Secretary: Janine Beth- scheider and Betty BaysLnger; • Treasurer: John Gure- witz; • Activities vice-president: Rich Hinckle and Tom Frandrup; • Yell leader: Ed Chiosso and Ed Bohnerd. If either Lucia or both Augustino and Torpey are exonerated, primaries will be held today to reduce their respective offices to a field of two candidates. tian Religions" is the topic slated for the second of Father Danielou's talks. It will be given, in English, at 8 p.m. Wednesday in the Phelan Hall dining room. Father Danielou is the author of many books, including "The Dead Sea Scrolls and Primitive Christianity," "The Theology of Jewish Christianity," and "The Lord of History." He has played a prominent part in the liturgical and ecumenical movements and has contributed to the development of the Church's work in the mission field. As is evidenced by his book "The Scandal of Truth," he has also been active in discussion with his non-Christian contemporaries. Theologian Danielou Expert on Vatican II Campaign for creative arts waged by student committee An "Ad Hoc Committee for the Arts," formed last week by a group of students, is now campaigning for a USF department of creative arts. Junior Christine Grinnon, head of the committee, told the Foghorn that her group would like to see an instructor teaching painting and sculpture full-time for next fall's schedule of classes, and a second teaching position shared by a number of bay area artists. To achieve these goals, the committee is asking students to write letters to Edmond Smith, S. J., dean of arts and sciences, and to Paul Harney, S. J., academic vice-president, supporting a creative arts program. The idea for the committee came at a meeting of thirty faculty members and students held last Friday. At that time, Miss Grinnon complained about the "complete lack of a creative arts at USF" and maintained that such a program "is undervalued" at this university. "In order to learn, we must create," she said. Mary Lou Burg, theology instructor, supported Miss Grinnon on that score, explaining how she, in her theology classes, had had some trouble getting students to "think creatively" because there wasn't a fine arts department at USF "for them to relate to." Senior Charles Carpenter said that "much is done here on the conceptual level, but virtually nothing creatively." "Catholic students are blank pages," said Miss Grinnon, and professed to be shocked. Numerous suggestions were made from the floor, among them a call to students and alumni to finance the new department themselves. Edward Stackpoole, S. J., assistant professor of English, disagreed, maintaining that the university should provide the money needed. College Player director John Collins said that the commit tee should "set up an intermediary goal and a final goal," by telling the administration that students want at least some activity in the creative arts area by next semester. William Monihan, S.J., director of library relations, thought that the Lone Mountain faculty in creative arts could be induced to teach some classes at USF next semester. A suggestion to begin the creative arts emphasis at the grass roots level by organizing an extracurricular activity was made by Richard Melo, instructor in speech arts. The committee sponsored yesterday's town hall on the problem, and will meet again today at 4 p. m. in room 405 of the University Centre. All interested students and faculty are invited. Other members of the committee are: Charles Carpenter, Ana Dulay, Mary Spohn. Jim Slauson and Judy Varni.
