Anything New in Current Events? This was a famous question among many of the juniors and seniors during the past year. They were asked it daily in history and civics classes. Of course ,ua group of girls seated around a cafeteria table or some boys standing around in the auditorium having a bull session during noon hour also kept each other well-informed about current events . But now we want to consider what went on in the world while we spent our days attending school, do- ing homework, going to games and dances, and working after school. As this is being written we cannot fully realize the significance of many of these events which changed the course of history and determined what the future will hold for us. In years to. come, after these events have been judged by history, we will understand what was and what was not important. The period from September, 1956 to June, 1957 was filled with events which will alter and illumi- nate the future and, through our highly developed media of commimication, we were there. One of the biggest and most tragic events of the year was the collision of the ocean liners, Andrea Doria and the Stockholm , off the coast of Long Island due to an as yet unexplained breakdown in communications in a heavy fog. The Andrea Doria sank along with fifty people. Two important occurrences overseas even helped to decide the outcome of thel956 presidential elec- tion. In Hungary, the unrest because of conditions under the domination of Communism flared up into an open revolt by workers and students against their Russian persecutors-, The freedom fighters succeed- ed in overthrowing the puppet government of Hun- gary and for four days set up their own government and released Cardinal Midzenty from captivity. The Russians cruelly repressed the revolt, however, and again forced a puppet government upon these brave people and sent many of them into exile in slave labor camps. Was this an isolated event or was it the beginning of the end for Communism? Only time will tell.
