President’s Message to the Students It takes no great philosopher to understand the principle that any act of mail to qualify as a human act must be done for a purpose. Not only one's judgment as to the morality of an act, but also one's decision as to how much effort to put into it, depends in a great part upon the purpose for which it is done. If there is a considerable amount of aimless meandering in the lives of men, it is due to the vagueness and insufficiency of their goals. Lest this same aimlessness characterize the activities of teachers and students, it may be well for us at the start of the school year to examine our goals. Pope Pius XI has explained that "education consists essentially in preparing man for what he must be and for what he must do here below, in order to attain the sublime end for which he was created." Such is the ultimate goal of our college work. But what about our more immediate goals and purposes? Are we sufficiently aware of them? Do they effectively motivate us? Everyone will have his own, but there is a general purpose which should motivate all of us. It is the basic purpose of a Catholic college— the formation of men and women in whom their Faith is a truly meaningful and vital force, enhancing and becoming a part of whatever particular career the individual graduate may choose. Unless we are keenly aware of this goal and strive to attain it, we shall miss the distinguishing characteristic of a Catholic college education. With an awareness—each of his own goal and all of this general goal—we shall wisely choose and diligently use every means to their attainment. There can be no better assurance of a successful year and Vol. XIX The PHOENIX Marian College, Indianapolis, Indiana, October 17, 1955 No. 1 Archbishop Inaugurates New Assembly Series Archbishop Paul Schulte spoke at the first of a series of chapel assemblies at Marian college, Oct. 6.

Panelists were John Breig, author and columnist for the Cleveland Catholic Universe Bulletin; the Rev, James Conroy, associate editor and columnist for Our Sunday Visitor; Charles McNeill, editor of The Young Catholic Messenger and past president of the Catholic Press association; Joseph Kozak, of Chicago's New World and Carol Bueker, of the George Pflaum publishing company.

Telephone. One of the year's most entertaining assembly programs, Oct. 13, presented Betty Winsett, soprano, and Ted Hart, baritone, both of New York. Melvin Light, pianist, accompanied them. The entire program was centered around a staged production of Gian Carlo Menotti's one-act comic opera. The Telephone. A sophisticated comment on modern life, this production presents a critical half hour in the lives of Lucy and Ben, a young couple in love, and the nearly successful attempts of a third person, the telephone, to wreck their romance. Also included on the program were some favorite arias and duets. Betty Winsett comes from a series of successes in musical comedy and television. Performances in such productions as Carousel, Roberta, The Student Prince, and Call Me Madame, comprise only a small portion of her sparkling career. For two seasons she was ensemble artist with the New York City Opera. Ted Hart's first appearance before New York critics was as soloist under the conductor-composer Edgar Varese. His operatic experience includes the role of V o 11 o r e in George Antheil's Volpone.
