In two instances the Loyola community shrugged off its traditional mantle of apathy to briefly support two liberal movements. The Immaculate Heart Sisters began a sweeping reform of their order, and in the process they surfaced the deep division between liberal and conservative Catholic elements in the Los Angeles area. A group of Loyola Jesuits rallied to their defense in a letter to the Cardinal; their communication was followed in turn by one from the Jesuits ' conservative camp. Most students clearly supported the nuns ' reform movement. And when a group of students propos ed a weekly vigil for peace in Vietnam, response was unusually good. Students and faculty alike lined up on Regents ' Terrace to serve as witnesses for peace in Vietnam . . . until that war stops. The vigil declined quickly for lack of continuing support — but for a fleeting moment, the Loyola community united itself and committed itself to a cause in the non-academic world. Later in the year, students from Loyola and Marymount College joined to present a week-long series of films, poetry readings, and symposiums on the Vietnam war and war in general.

Cultural events were far more numerous in ' 67- ' 68. Robert Short presented a slide lecture on his best-selling The Gospel According to Peanuts before a jammed St. Robert ' s audience. Sterling Siliphant screened In the Heat of the Night before an equally responsive crowd; the screenwriter entered into a give-and-take session with students afterwards. Australian-American duo-pianists Nelson Neal pre- sented a piano concert at the close of the fall quarter, featuring Bach ' s Minor Fugues and Brahm ' s Sonata in F Minor. Paul Fay spoke on John F. Kennedy — Book Subject and Friend. Fay, author of The Pleasure of His Company, was a close friend of the late president, and his talk was second in the University lecture series. Third lecturer was education critic and former Time magazine cover subject William Arrowsmith. His speech, Toward a New University, was well received by both student and faculty intellectuals. The National Association for American Composers and Conductors co-sponsored with Loyola a chamber music concert. Dr. Robert McAfee Brown ' s lectures on The New Ecumenical Situation and Current Trends in Protestant Thought were presented before near-capacity houses. Perhaps the most popular speaker of the winter quarter was Brother Antoninus; he addressed his continuous and unified love poem to a rapt audience. Last speaker of the second quarter was State Superintendent of Public Instruction Dr. Max Rafferty; he delivered the second major speech of his campaign for a U. S. Senate seat nomination. « - - T— 7 - ■■ ■ Mutk ■ -■: !:■■■ :-., -L- „ ' :■ ■■■ .a- • r ■ •- • ' ■■ W ■ ' ■■■■■■-.■ n
