By JODY MELIA

The Rev.Fred P.Harrison, S.J., hasbeen appointed the moderatorof the Seattle University SPECTATOR, announced the Very ReverendA. A. Lemieux, S.J., last week. He succeeds Rev. John E. Gurr, S.J.

Lettermen Mixer Chairmen Bob Fieser and Jack Lynch, above,were discussing the coming danue to be sponsored by the SI!LettermenFriday night at the Providence Auditorium. The mixerwill follow the SU-Gonzaga contest.

Air ROTC RequestedIn hand with the former an-

nouncementbyPresidentLemieux,he also disclosed that a SeattleUniversity application for an AirForce ROTC unit has been ap-proved and is receiving furtherconsideration by the ContinentalAir Command.

A Reserve Officer TrainingCorps program will be establishedhere soon, the Very Rev. A. A.Lemieux, president, learned lastTuesday in a telegram from Sen-ator Warren G. Magnuson.

Senator Magnuson said the De-partment of the Army had selectedSeattle University and GonzagaUniversity of Spokane, Wash., totrain future officers through ROTCunits.

Thirty-one other institutions inthe nation also will get new ROTCunits.

Army ApprovesSU Application;To Start Soon

Father Gurr has heard nothingdefinite concerninghis transfer andas a result, little as to the dutieshe will perform.

Father Harrison is by.no meansa new face to SU or the SPEC-TATOR. In1938 he moderated theSPECTATOR and in the interimhas taught severalSummer classeshere. Also during his one-yearstay, he directed the debate team.

Upon graduation from GonzagaHigh School in 1931, Father en-tered the Jesuit order. He returnsafter recently completingstudies atthe University of Chicago for aPh.D. in English literature. It isthat field of instruction in whichhe is now engaged at SU. FatherHarrison has also instructed atBellarmineHigh School in Tacomaand at Loyola University when inChicago.

Although the advantages are ob-vious, the front of the room is notthe ideal place to sit. If you're inthe first row and theroom is fairly|crowded, you might suddenly findyourself gazing up into the teach-er's mouth as he lectures. (One ladbecame so fascinated by his in-structor's molars that he switchedhis major to dentistry.)

Those who sit in the middle ofthe classroom areusually the cau-tious, deliberate type, withneveraradical thought among them. Theyfavor a middle-of-the-road policyand will invariably vote for menlike Hoover.

the tale of yak" GENE JOHNSTONAnd it came to pass that among the studentry of a certain Yakkite

institution many of themdid cast down their books and forsake theirslide-rules and band together for riotous purposes. These, moreover,emblazoned themselves with the sign of the Yak that they might beknown and honored among lesser tribes. And indeed they adopted amost noble code, saying that they would keep the masses in line atall feats of strength and skill, lest the masses trample one anotherunderfoot or mob thereferee. Further, daily did they take upon them-selves such duties as ringing the great belland beating erasers. Evendid they sell lots on many games of chance and skill, over whichthey presided.

For they took counsel among themselves and knew these thingsto be a good thing, and others sought to be with them for they werehonored and their garments were of many hues. Thus their numberincreased and multiplied and threatened to fill the earth, and theydevised rituals whereby novices were taken into the fold, and thesewere strange and devious.

Often were neophytes seen garbed as Yaks or donkeys and emit-ting strange noises, and the masses marveled at these things and weresorry for the chosen ones, for they simulated idiocy with remarkableaccuracy.

And the masses did cgunsel among themselves and there waswhispering and unrest. Lo, and in that place there was a tatteredshanty in which many of those who had battled the infidel lived, andit was'known as the Glacier with Doors. And to that place upon acertain day did come the Big Yak and several smaller Yaks, with allthe neophytes, and there prepared them for celebration. And theywere liberally smeared with paint and their bodies adorned with oddcoverings, but they did leave many stains and much wreckage in theirwake. Thence did they departtomake Yaks anddonkeys of themselves.

But one of those who had done battle with the infidel came shiv-ering to where they had been and, seeing evidence of their visit, wasthrice enraged. Beating upon his chest and then upon his typewriter,hedid accuse them of defilinghis home and ofbeing worthless anyway.

Duly these things appeared in writing, and there was rejoicingamong many, and hot-water bottles were raised in praise by thosein the Glacier with Doors.

But among the Yaks there were fierce cries of vengeance andshouts of "Sour grapes!" And then did the Yaks come from all placesby new and flashy chariots and did congregate at the place of Casta,which offered strong drink.

Their answer did they righteously chronicle immediately,pointingout that who but they rang the great bell and kept the masses fromstepping on one another, plus many other noteworthy deeds. If per-chance they yearly littered the abode of the broken-down battlers ofinfidels, what matters it?

Yea verily, and ill-will persisted in that land, though the greatbell tolled daily and the masses wer« silent. Oh, no! We're not relatives, we're his draft board!

Gonzaga'sBulldogs roll into townthis Friday and Saturday night torenewoldacquaintances minus theservices of last year's "Gee WhizKids," composedof Frank Walters,Rich Evans,PatSweeney, andJackCurran.

A traditional rivalry has beenbrewing between both schools forseveral years and Gonzaga has"taken home the bacon" eight outof 12 times in thepast five.Despitethe fact that Coach Bill Under-wood's club sports a lean two-winand 11-loss record, the Bulldogsare keyed up to bring our stringof 17-straight to a screeching halt.

As to comparative scores, al-though suffering: losses to CPS,75-57, PLC 48-40, and PortlandUniversity 65-50 and 65-63 in adouble-overtime thriller last weekend, the Blue-and-White are eagerto offer the same consideration asNavy did to theArmy football jug-gernaught this fall.

The probable starting lineup forthe Bulldogs will be George Chal-ich and Dick Hire at forward posi-tions;Nick Puhich,center; and JimMcCaughey and Captain RollinSchaubley at the guard spots.

Next Tuesday the St. Martin'sRangers entertain the Chiefs ontheir home court and hope toavenge their 57-45 setback earlierthis season.

Fire Chief John O'Brien, hisbucket brigade, and hook-'n'-lad-der squad, turned from a role of"deep-freezers" to "fire-eaters" asthey poured condensedsteam overthree more burning embers.

Contests over the holiday seasonwatched the Chieftain fast-breakblow hot and cold but it stillproved sufficient to smother thechallengers.

A tussle with Whitman gave theteam a chance to get an antici-pated "off night" out of its systemto struggle by the stubborn Mis-sionaries, 64-40.

ÜBC didn't appreciate our hos-pitality either, as they returned totheir nest with two additionalset-backs, 89-67 and 81-60. "OldReli-able" Bobby Hedequist took thehonors the second night, leadingthe Chiefs to their 14th consecutivetriumph with 22 tallies.

The lumbering Loggers fromCPSgot "a treat instead of a treat-ment" as they gave the SU quintettheir toughest opposition this sea-son, but the Chiefs squeaked outa 74-73 victory. This -win couldbe classified a "technical victory,"as 2 of our points were canned atthe free-throw line as a result offlaring tempers. Another decidingfactor was Bob Feiser's lay-in justas the buzzer sounded ending thefirst half. "Easy Elmer" calmlydropped in a two-hander outsidethe key .to give the Chiefs theirlead. Despite 6 ft. 7 in. of armsand legs checking him, LittleJohnwas held down to 30 points for theevening.

The highly touted VancouverCloverleafs took a trip south ofthe border last week end with anupset in mind but toddled homewith umbrella in arm, a vision ofeating crumpets and tea, and tosay the least, two decisive lossesof 103-72 and 80-51. "Shots"O'Brien kept Bob Klug's recordbooks bristling with activity, ashe broke three records. (See"Brave Talk" for further details.)

Chiefs Win SixGames inHolidays

In a battle for top spot of theNorthwest League, the Froshdroppeda hard-fought game to theAlpine Dairy team, 57-45.

The Alpsopenedthe scoring witha free toss,but the Papooses cameback with a field goal to enjoytheir only lead of the game. Con-trolling the backboards, the tallDairymen completely dominatedfirst half play, leading 36-17 at theinterim.

The Papooses rallied at the startof the second half but the Alpscontinued their scoring pace, lead-ing 46-33 at the end of the thirdquarter.

During the fourth quarter,sparked by Don Ginsberg, theFrosh whittled the Alps' 20-pointlead to 7, with four minutes re-maining. But the experiencedDairy five reverted to their oldtricks ofkeep-away,drawingmanyPapoose fouls, to walk away withtheir 12-point victory. Fifty-ninefouls werecalled during the roughcontest,32 of them onthe Papooses.

When John hit for a 34-point total against the Cloverleafs,accord-ing to all listed records he had amassed the most points any Chiefhas scored in a single contest. However Father Logan, S.J., our for-merathleticdirector,receivedanoteMonday morning fromhisbrother,Jim,now a dentist at Poulsbo, Wash., to the effect that he had amasseda 35-point total against Willamette, back in 1924. Those were thedays when Seattle College sported a student body of about 40 and the50-35 victory received as much publicity as Jim's outstanding feat.

Almost Johnnie, But Not Quite

Brother Ed, who returns to action in two weeks (we hope), isn'tdoing; too badly either, considering he's been sidelined witha shoulderinjury the past four weeks; he's fourth in the nation in the field goalpercentage department, with 54.9%.

The team as a whole is right up there, too. They're leading thepack in fieldgoal percentage with a 44.7% overage,and are seated insixth spot in team offense with a 78.5 points per game average.

The above statistics include only the first fourteen games; so withthe brilliantperformance of both the squadand 0.8. we can look foreven better results in the current tabulations. These figures are takenfrom the OFFICIAL BASKETBALL STATISTICS released by theNATIONAL COLLEGIATE ATHLETIC BUREAU in New York.

By JACK PAIN and JOHN MORGANMaking more records than Frankie Lame these days is Seattle

—BUT the pec-wee

pivot is also fifteenth in individualscoring percentage with a measly19.1 points per game.
