there aren't, John said. Article III of the Bill of Rights forbids it, and what's more, he poured out in the next breath before this scahdalous person could make another sucfi remark, it forbids un- reasonable searching of our homes or seizure of our property without a war- rant. Why, Columbus couldn't be any prouder than I am right now, the Pil- grim said. Now unburden thyself of all the current gossip about the witches. How many have they burned lately? Why none. My goodness, you cer- tainly don't get around much! Don't you know that everyone is entitled to a public trial by an impartial jury and has visitor. But there just must be a catch somewhere. What about the powers not delegated or prohibited by the Consti- tution and this Bill of Rights? Those powers are reserved to the states or the people, john answered pa- tiently. That's good enough for me, the Pilgrim said, buttoning his black frock coat and wiping off the silver buckles on his shoes in preparation for departure. He stopped at the door saying, There's just one more question I'd like to ask you. What was the name of the song that was playing when I entered? It's called 'America', john ans- wered proudly. a counsel for his defense. Besides, even if they are guilty, they don't have high fines or unusual punishments. And what was the line after 'land of the pilgrim's pride'? john answered solemnly, From every That is news, said john's uninvited mountain side let freedom ring.

odlsn 0 0 WJ' 7'Va'4 Q That Vocations May Flourish Recently, Our Holy Father made an appeal to all praying Catholics to petition God that the present world distress might not hamper priestly vocations. This plea of the Sovereign Pontiff makes us appreciate more fully how important is the apostolic mission and how necessary it is that we make a daily memento in our prayers that God's Vineyard be renewed with young missionaries who will bind up the spiritual and moral wounds of humanity, in a world gone mad with the griefs and horrors of war. The question that faces all thoughtful Catholics today is: Will there be enough priests to strengthen the faith of the people confused by the terrors of this terrible war and help to keep their faith and hope and charity strong and determined and tender? Apropos of the subject, we might compare the present conflict with the scourge of the Black Death which swept across Europe in the sixteenth century. It was because so many priests thus died untimely deaths that ordinations were accelerated, and some- times vocations not brought to maturity culminated in laxity on the part of the clergy- thus giving an impetus to the so-called Protestant Reformation. It is the duty of every loyal Catholic to keep this intention, so earnestly promulgated by the Vicar of Christ, in his daily prayers, so that history will not be tempted to repeat itself. There are many young Catholic boys in the armed service who might otherwise have answered the call to the priesthood but who felt it a patriotic duty to serve their country in her great hour of need. Will these young men, when, and if they return, retain their original desire to follow the call, or will they, perhaps, come home with an altered outlook and anxious for more worldly pursuits? After the war our broken world must be rehabilitated, and how is this to be done without the religious guidance of God's ministers? Let us sincerely pray with all our heart in the words of our Holy Father the Pope: That the present world distress may not hamper priestly vocations. MOLLY WHALEN '45 Finale T WAS four months ago that we first practiced marching to the strains of the tradi- tional Melody in F . Now that the curtain is about to ascend and the orchestra is tuning up, we are more than a little expectant. Attired in our spotless uniforms and spectators, and bedecked with American Beauty roses, we are quite confident that the Class of 1945 will be outdone by none. As our turns come one by one, we listen closely tc the music. Da-dum-da-da-dum, da-da-dum, -da-da-tum--the bass notes of the wind instruments take us back to our freshman days-to the ups-and-downs of getting going -dark days to be sure-but relieved by the happy sophomoric string idyll, after having been duly initiated into the joys and sorrows of Latin, history, geometry, and home economics. Lovely, lovely melody-da-dum-da-da-the beautiful rhythm insinuates itself into the very marrow of our memories and we see ourselves the efficient organizers of the junior-Senior Prom. At this point an unrehearsed sour note jolts us to the realistic remembrance of the man-power shortage, which brought on the last resort of lullaby singing for a younger brother or two. Like time, the tune marches on. We find ourselves nearing the footlights. It is the Hnale-the fourth and last measure. Fragments of wistful cadences bring us to visualize Scroll work, Class Play, Senior Retreat, and May Crowning. Mixed emotional chords flght for the mastery, but the regretful minor wins the contest as we make our final curtsy before this audience, which has assembled to witness the class of 1945 bid farewell to S.U.A.
