?J
It is obvious that principles are guiding Villanova, and
they are principles which no one has ever attacked as unreasonable. These principles are almost elemental: that a
voung man need three meals a day, that a college man has
enough to do without working, that subterfuge is unbecoming
to an institution of higher education, especially one dedicated
to the principles of Christ. Villanova has been honest; is there
an honest person in the country who will call an athlete a
professional because he eats three meals a day?
We think that our school deserves our applause and that
of anyone who is seriously concerned over the future of intercollegiate sports, for we hcM the opinion that frankness and
genuine sincerity are the important factors in checking the
widespread commercialism in Sports today. To us Villanova's
cause is the cause of American intercollegiate sports, —' and
we applaud the men who are willing to sacrifice immediate
considerations to preserve the system which is making the

Recently the Dean of Villanova's journalists sent his alterego, Oscar Twomp, to view the
career outlook of Villanova's
grads. It was evident in Oscar's
report that he wanted to keep
the field of journalism in the
shadows, since he failed to even
give it a line in his column. And.
for obvious reasons, the field
borders on the over-crowded
stage.
There is no reason to
look for added competition, such

from which the Belle Masque stage crew is constructing the set within the Field House stage.
The finished setting will be comparable to the
interior of the Globe Theatre as seen in the film,
Henry V. produced by Sir Laurence Olivier. It
will rise twenty-one feet from the present stage
and constitute three tiers. The first level, known
as the inner-stage, is used to depict general
scenes from the play as called for in the script.
The second level is used for interior scenes and
the third is a musician's balcony. The sides of
the Elizabethan stage on the second level are also
used to represent different scenes in the play and
inthis case, the homes of Merrythough and Venturewell respectively. Another characteristic of
the Elizabethan stage is that it does not require
scene changes. The action moves from the outer
stage to the inner stage and is integrated from
one level to another. This accounts for the fast
moving theatrical plays in that particular era.
