Itwill be interesting to see when it will be the style againfor collegiennes toact educated and to beinterested. 1It 's been along time since it was smar tto fget so heated over apolitical issue as todisagree with aprof, not for boldness sake,bu t for stimulation andclarification.

During 1954 the world saw the SupremeCourt, in its age-old campaign to sanction,preserve and exalt the equality of all men,vote in favor of integrat ion. Just this pastyear the school board of Central High Schoolin Little;Rock, Arkansas, set up an ; integration plan by selecting nine Negro childrencarefully, cons idering intelligence, ^achievement, conduct, health even the shade oftheir skins. Such handpicking is in itself aticklish proposition. JjThis September the crowning eventcame when the exalted governor of Arkansas, Orval Eugene Faubus, a hillbilly fromthe Ozarks, called out the state Militia todenylthese same nine students entrance into the halls of Little Rock's Central High.In defense of his actions, the governorstates that i t is his duty to preserve peace,and that the ent rance of these nine wouldhave caused violence from wh ite segrega-tionalists. Governor Faubus might just aseasily have called! out the s tate militia tohelp the ninefNegro students enter CentralHigh without violence. Perhaps such actionwould not appeal toGovernor Faubus because itpwould be enforcing the rule of thehighest court in our United States.I t is a l i t t le pathetic, too, when yourealize that this man, who considers himselfa man of destiny, had tocall out armed

guards in order to tell^nine, frightened, confused teenagers that they could not haveth e educationgto which they, as citizens, areentitled. Such action runs counter to goodcharacter and to the "very reasons the Constitution of the United States was written.

Senior smiles, junior squeals,sophomore smirks, and freshmensniffs usher in the 'Hurst 's Fallsession of academic pursuit. Alllittle sisters are prudently obeying junior words of wisdom. Rosemary Crawford was heard assuring a faculty member that only"the good habits" would be passed on to the unsuspecting Frosh.Thus, we might say that the yearhas had abnormal commencementand all are ready toresume annual school activities.I t was only a matte r of time'til jthe trusty raccoons wouldonce again contribute personallyto the collegiate's wardrobe.

Have you heard about the senior who spent her f irst night atMcAuley under the Ibed? Theysay tha t jus t a word- from SisterRegina will do it. Sister's cautionIn checking doors, windows, andclothes chutes have made a fewsensitive seniors wary of the"bogey man".If the upperclassmen are surveying the freshmen with a tingeof the old green-eyed monster, itis not their youth that they areenvying, but thepastel coloredwalls found Io n first? flooi residence. Pinks, baby blues, greens,and yellows are tne thing withthe "younguns". Enjoy it, Frosh,your next three years will be spentdecorating a lovely shade ofneutral.

s,oea our W in"When do we get achance to voice ouropinions: the Merciad reflects only the opinions of a few" this cry rises from the student body ; every year. However, this is notat all the case. The Merciad lis the college'snewspaper; it isyour newspaper. But it isonly directly your paper to the extent which,\ou are willing to make it yours.Actually you are represented and concerned with n early every article; printed inth e Merciad,,-but there are other more di rect

ways by which you may ^represent the college's and your views*more fully. Either youmight offer your writing services to th eMerciad or you might take advantage of thenewspaper's main (bu-t least used) outlet ofstudent opinion a letter to the editor. Ifyou (and a few others) hold aview on somepoint or problem or have a, suggestion whynot share it withf the rest ofthe college?Good thoughtful suggestions are always welcome, *you know. Perhaps you will see^yoursuggestion live and breathe rather than lieidle in some dusty corner of your brain.W h a t dosyou say, let 's all take advantage of "lettersJto the editor" and the "editor's suggestion box" incollege hall; let 'sreally^make the Merciad our college fnewspaper this year.

Sister S tu de nts Stud y H ereRoom 22 in Freshman Hall sports a "new look" with two sistersof Mercy from Guam as its occupants. Sister M. Angelica and SisterBernadette Marie (R.S.M.) have come|to Mercyhurst to study fortheir degrees in music and education, respectively.Sister M. Angelica is a Junior an d a music major. Sh e studiedat a Belmont, North Carolina, junior college for her first {two years.Sister Bernadette Marie is a Freshman in elementary education. Bothsisters have taught in Guam,while! Sister Angelical has alsotaught in North Carolina parochial schools.Both sisters feel that educationin Guam is comparable to ours inthe United States in both eleme-mentary and secondary grades.Their courses, as well as the timeand length of vacations, are similar.In their country, an island ofsome thirty-thousand people,forty-six percent are under fifteen years of age. Schooling forthis percentage is inadequate dueto a shortage of both schools and?teachers. Guam'lias no Catholiccollege and I only one Catholicjunior college. Any student desiring higher education must come

to the United States as these twosisters have done, Sister M. Angelica and Sister Bernadette M arie, welcome ^members of theMercyhurst student bod:.

Positive RepliesAnswer QueryMidst a barrage of I . Q. tests,receptions, class meetings, andhelpful Big Sisters, eager Freshmen greeted the roving reporter 'sanxious query, "Why did youcome to Mercyhurst?" w ith th eusual blank stare accompanyingthe "why?" probe ."Fr iendly spir i t" an d! "a tmos

phere" answered the questionmost frequently and seemed to bethe general drawing card. Asj Su ePringle of Wattsburg put it, "Eventhe buildings themselves seemfriendly." Kathy Feola, fromSyracuse, turned down otherscholarships to come to Mercy-hurst because, foremo st in hermind, the gir ls! themselves are"so friendly."Recommendation for Mercyhurst to Donna Henel from Ken-more, New York, came from apriest. Susan Stark, Erie, won ascholarship, while Nancy Lymph,Indiana, Pa., and Elizabeth Ryan,Ellicottville, New York, with u p per-classmen sisters, will upholdth e family tradition. |A variety of answers to a frequently asked question. Generalconsensus loi opinion, though,among the Freshmen is definite. . Mercyhurst I is a "wonderfulplace" I to begin their collegecareers.

An arriving freshm an doesn 'tknow much else her first day at Mercyhurst. |AUlwondering "what my roommate will be like" disappeared whenwarm greetings were exchanged and the task of unpacking and settling in new rooms was begun. |First impressions are most important and this year 's freshmanclass reallyfkept a sharp eye open to every little detail about their newschool.They were delighted at the convenient "one building college" andawed by the art work to be foundthroughout the school. Contraryto popular belief among the fresh-| men (rumor of upperclassmen !)the first days of tests and lecturesdid not kill! them. And t heF ac ul ty -F re sh m en R e c e p t i o n(again rumored to be a not so exciting evening!) was J a n | affairthey thoroughly enjoyed.As fearfully-an ticipated days ofinitiation were given and taken ingood spirit for the most part, thename tags supplied to each girlwere said to be "a tremendousi help in getting!acquainted."Mercyhurst upperclassmen can! take this praise for what they willbecause?of the size of the college the freshmen class was highly surprised but most grateful forthe "sincere and whole-heartedfriendliness" of | everyone, including all upperclassmen.

Lounge FundAppropriated

Supporting its Alma Mater 'splans for expansion, the Mercyhurst College Alumnae Association recently added a major project to aid the college and itsstudents . At the 1957 businessmeeting, held during the AnnualHomecoming?Weekend, the a lumnae established a school development fund. This fund, begun as ofSeptember 7, will be used to furnish an Alumnae Lounge in theevent of a new residence hall atMercyhurst. T he association! requested that an alumnae office,to adjoin theS lounge, be considered in the building plans. Thisoffice would also be furnishedfrom the development fund.Money for this project is raisedfrom the Gift ? Fund, which replaces dues in the association.The Alumnae Association alsosponsors a scholarship fund whichawards a full tuition, four-yearscholarship to girls from Erie,Buffalo, Pittsburgh, and Cleveland. The scholarship is a rotating one, and is given to a girlfrom one of these cities every fouryears.

As the maze of halls begins toseem more familiar to the Freshmen, all roads lead to.the snackbar and bookstore.Several new items found aboutschool are located in cupboardhall. Most obvious is the fruit andfruit juice vending machine complete with can opener and straws.Venturing inside the bookstoresuch addi t ions to the merchandise as the new Mercyhurst dollsare immediately sighted. Now th eMercyhurst dolls are little girlswith pony tails, little boy dollswith tassle cap, or the little professor with glasses.If you are too busy to write aletter home, drop a line on oneof- tb^-new photo post cpxds ofWeber I Memorial Library, thetower and the theater lobby.Sophomores will find walletsize envelopes handy for carryingterm paper note cards.Bookstore hours are: 11:40ajn.-12:50 p.m.; 6:30-7:00 p.m.|Snack bar hours: Sundaythrough Thursday from 9:30 p.m.to 10:00.
