SO MUCH FROM SO FEW An open letter from Engene P. McCahill, '21
Dear Alumnus:
The score-board on the first Georgetown Alumni Annual Giving Fund shows a remarkable total of money collected during the first eleven months of our effort, but the number of donors is somewhat of a disappointment. Only 1,818 or less than 9% of the sons (and daughters too) of George· town have felt the urgency of the appeal sufficiently well to rally to the cause. A few donors have given rather large sums of money as evidence of their sincere interest in the program, but those large sums, when squared with the small numbers of donors, have had a tendency to increase the size of the average gift to the point where that average is (and I say it advisedly) too high. It is not that we can't use large gifts, but what we are really after is a large number of gifts in any denomination.
The success of an Alumni Annual Giving Fund is based not upon the amount contributed by the individual donor, but upon the number of Alumni who use the fund to demonstrate their appreciation of the work the University is doing and their determination to see to it that the work is carried on despite a practically non-existent endowment.
The Alumni Annual Giving Fund is not a campaign for buildings or for capital improvements. It is an all-out attempt to assist the University to meet the difference belween tuition income and operational expense. Through Annual Giving we should be able to assist Georgetown by providing more scholarship aid for students, adequate pension and retirement funds for professors who have given years to the University's service, and adequate funds
for essential research projects. These are the things which tuition income cannot provide, unless tuition is to be in· creased to a point where only the very wealthy could afford a Georgetown education, thereby limiting the University's wide influence which has been felt throughout the nation for one hundred and sixty-five years.
Georgetown's alumni throughout the world number ap· proximately twenty-one thousand. If each of them would give according to his means and his heart, we could turn over, annually, a startling fund to assist the University Administration with its multitude of problems.
Because of the fine work which has been done at our Alma Mater throughout its long and useful history, her Alumni have, with reason, come to be known as "men of distinction". Each advance which the University makes enhances the value of the degrees we hold: If for no other reason, I feel that widespread support of our Annual Giving program is thus of tremendous importance to us as Alumni.
When the first year of our Annual Giving Fund ends, on December 31, I plan to render a report of my stewardship which will be sent to every Alumnus on our mailing list. In the repm;t I plan to list the names of all who assisted by making their contributions in the first year of our. appeal. However, amounts will not be shown. But each donor's name will appear, and I want yours there.
Sincerely yours
EuGENE P. McCAHILL, '21 National Chairman, First Alumni Annual Giving Committee.

"REMOVE NOT THE ANCIENT LANDMARK" The speech of
Hon. David A. Pine, LL.B. '13
At the Marshall-Wythe-Blackstone Commemoration Ceremonies at the College of William and Mary, September 25, 1954. Judge Pine is a member
of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.
You have been surfeited with speeches. Words! Words! More words! And if words be tyrants, you have indeed become their liege subj ects by remaining throughout the day, although in a slightly modified sense from that intended by the author of that expression, or my recollection of it. But perhaps it is good training, and designed to put you in condition so to speak, for President Chandler has in· formed me that today's proceedings are but a prelude to a series of programs during the ensuing year, rededicating the Bench and Bar to the traditions of representative Con· stitutional Government. Indeed, he has asked me to select a topic bearing some relation to that general theme, and one which might serve as a basis for further discussion. That would seem to give me wide latitude, but I take it he means a discussion on the Constitution.
And I am happy that he asked me to speak on the Con· stitution, because that is a speaker's paradise. Although innumerable volumes have been written and countless words have been spoken concerning it, the Constitution seems never to pall, and, I am glad to say, insures audience interest, regardless of the speaker. Small wonder that I accepted your kind invitation with such eagerness, as I was provided, so to speak, with a captive audience. And there is another reason, a secret reason! Lawyers and judges are peculiarly su ceptible to the temptation of a discourse on the Constitution.
GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ALUMNI MAGAZINE
On course, one has to be selective in a discussion of the Constitution, because even that great document has a limit to its antidotal capacity to resist audience boredom; and selection generally presents difficulties on account of its many fascinating possibilities.
But here I have an added burden. Adm. Chandler has also stipulated that my topic must be of "broad interest to the layman as well as to ... the legal profession." Apparently the layman comes first, but my topic must be suitable for both. And that presents an almost insuperable obstacle, for no lawyer worthy of the name, at least none of my acquaintance, certainly no member of the faculty or graduate of this institution, would admit to a status he· neath that of an expert on the Constitution, in court or out. The lawyer generally acquires that distinction at graduation, or shortly before, and never questions his title. How, then, may I say anything of interest to a man of his scholarship which would be within the meager understanding of the layman? And by the same token, how may I say anything of interest to the layman which would be other than commonplace to my learned former brother at the bar? I have no answer to these questions, and the two conditions seem to be mutually exclusive, but I have not allowed the obstacle to stand in my way and have come before you nevertheless, in the hope, perhaps born of optimism, that what I shall say will be of some interest to the layman and not too shallow for polite attention of the expert.
And in casting about in my mind for some phase of the general subj ect which perhaps is not too shopworn, it occurred to me that you might be interested in an analysis of the mental state of the men who assembled in Philadelphia to salvage something from the wreckage of the Arti· cles of Confederation- a sort of psychoanalysis without therapy or need for therapy; if I can use the term in that non-technical manner, for Heaven knows that those giants needed no therapy. In other words, what emotions gripped them? What dominated their thinking and their actions? What were their compulsions?
Of course, such an analysis will have to be based on what they said and what they did in the light of their background and surrounding circumstances. It cannot be comprehensive, as such an inquiry would add another volume to the sagging shelves, and indeed I know that you

will be glad to hear that I am not prepared for any such undertaking. My text, therefore, if I need one, might be, "By their fruits, ye shall know them," and at the end I shall be orthodox and point a moral, if you will permit.
These men will have to be considered collectively, and not individually, as their achievement was collective, and individual consideration would be beyond the scope of my remarks. Indeed, what I have to say migl1t not be wholly applicable to each one and might be more applicable to one than to another. With a few exceptions, notably Jefferson, John Adams, and Patrick Henry, who were absent, they constituted the leading citizens of the erstwhile colonies. Lawyers predominated, although there were a number of doctors, educators, bankers, merchants, and others in attendance. There were some who had served as soldiers in the Revolution , and a number -who had signed the Declaration of Independence. Six were members of the Continental Congress of 1774 .. Six were signers of the Articles of Confederation, one of whom had drawn it, forty-three had been members of the Continental Congress, and two had been presidents of the Congress.
They were men of deep learning, scholarly attainments, and wide experience in statecraft. They had been brought together under a Resolution passed by the expiring Con-

gress under the Articles of Confederation, for the purpose of "revising" the Articles. The government established by it had utterly failed, because of its weakness. The country was in a desperate condition. Radical measures were being agitated. The French revolution was just around the corner, and its spirit was in the air. The currency was of uncertain value. Credit was practically nil. Life, liberty, and property were not safe. Chaos was imminent.
With their background and under those circumstances, I have no hesitancy in saying that fear dominated them, and that the object of their fear was first a lack of government. Before them loomed disunion, disorder, and anarchy, which in my evaluation produced profound fear in their hearts. This would seem to be obvious.
On the other hand, I think the record shows that they had a competing fear, equally consuming and tending to counteract the other. They knew that to remove the fear of lack of government, it was necessary to establish one of sufficient strength to cope with the situation, and that equated strength on a national scale which was far from platable.
· They were de.voted to their local self-governments, and they had distrust and hatred for absentee authority. The list of grievances in the Declaration of Independence is ample evidence of this, and they were fearful that a strong federal government might, in time, produce a counterpart for that which the sacrifices of the Revolution had sought to destroy. They feared it would be an instrument of tyranny, despotism, and oppre sion; and my conclusion
GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ALUMNI MAGAZINE
that they were possessed by this fear can be found, as I shall later show, in the Constitution of the United States, without looking elsewhere.
Father Walsh gave a lifetime to develop·the Georgetown School of Foreign Service. Any alumnus can give something through Annual Giving to keep it where he put it.
And so, when they assembled in Philadelphia, as they later said, " to form a more perfect union," ignoring the mandate of the Resolution appointing them to "revise" the Articles of Confederation, which incidentally could not be amended except by unanimous vote of all the States, it is my view that collectively they were controlled by fear, or more accurate! y, two competing, incompatible fears: a fear of government and a fear of a lack of government. Nevertheless, with such dismaying premise, and actuated by such warring emotions, a miracle was performed, and by a strange and unique adventure in the science of government they did the impossible-they reconciled the irreconcilable, they squared the circle. In the oft-repeated words of Gladstone, they forged "the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time by the brain and purpose of man." They found a formula by which the hard-won freedom of the people and the sovereignty of the States could be preserved and at the same time a national government of sufficient strength to provide order and security and perform national functions could be created.
In their plan of government, they took the totality of sovereign power residing in the people, a theory on which there was no disagreement, and vested a portion of it in the United States, reserving the remainder to the States and the people, a distribution, but not an equal distribution of sovereign power. They made the United States supreme in its national sphere, without detracting from the supremacy of the States within their respective state spheres, except for the imposition of several restraints deemed necessary in the national interest or for the protection of individual or property righs, for example, the restraint upon the States against the passing of any bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the obligation of contract. They thereby formed a duality of sovereignty within the same orbit, a device, I believe, withou exact historical precedent.
They created the United States as a sovereignty, and granted it those powers considered necessary for the proper conduct of national functions, but they granted no more than necessary, and thereby lessened its capacity for harm to the States and the people whose powers were only diminished to the extent of those granted away or prohibited. And then, to make assurance doubly sure, the people, when it came to ratification, apparently entertain-

ing the same fear, but probably more fervently than that which actuated the delegates to the Convention, insisted on the incorporation of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, which provided that the enumeration of powers in the Constitution were not to be construed to deny or disparage the others retained by the people, and that the powers not delegated or prohibited were reserved to the States or to the people.
Next, as showing the fear of tyranny and despotism incident to the creation of a strong central government, I cite to you the first eight amendments to the Constitution. As you know, they guarantee freedom of religion, speech, and press; secure the people against unreasonable searches and seizures; require indictment in felony cases; forbid a person to be compelled to be a witness against himself; and prohibit the deprivation of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, along with the other restraints for the protection of rights inherent in free men. These are all restraints placed upon the Federal Government, not upon the States. Could anything more eloquently qemon· strate the fear alluded to than these amendments which were so uppermost in the minds of the people that it was necessary to agree to add them formally to the Constitution in order to be sure of its ratification? And if this fear was in the minds of the people, is it not reasonable to presume that it was in the minds of the delegates who represented them, but who felt that the amendments were unnecessary because the Constitution itself was so scrupulously careful to enumerate and delimit the granted powers?
ext, fearful of wrongful or excessive exercise of such powers as were necessarily granted to the Federal Govern· ment, the founders diluted their strength by distributing them among three departments of government: the legis-

lative, executive, and judicial. In this they were probably influenced by the teachings of Locke and Montesquieu, particularly the latter, who advocated some separation of powers as a measure of safety, and also by the historical excesses of monarchs and parliaments when powers were concentrated in one. They therefore granted the powers because of necessity, but weakened their exercise by distribution; and as a further safeguard, in certain categories they set up a system of additional checks by one branch of the government against another. For example, the treaty· making power of the executive is conditioned on the concurrence of two-thirds of the Senate present; the appointive power of the executive in specified cases requires the consent of the Senate; the law-making power of the legislative is subject to the veto of the executive, which again is subject to circumvention by two-thirds of the votes of both houses, and although not expressly provided therein, implicit in the language granting the judicial' power is its power to nullify acts of either of the other branches and . of the State which go beyond or are in contravention of the Constitutional authority. This was made certain by

Eugene P.

branch alone, there is a similar check in the creation of two houses of Congress, which convincingly shows the fear of government, including a fear of government by an unbridled democracy as well as a fear of king or parliament.
There are many other road blocks, some express and some implicit in the practical operation of government, growing out of this fear of government because of tyranny and despotism always inherent therein unless curbed. But I shall not elaborate the point further, and shall pass on to several quotations on the subject.
The first is from Washington's farewell address, in which he said: "The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all governments in one, and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism."
The second is from the 47th paper of the Federalist written by Madison, where he stated: "The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive and judicial, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."
The third is from John Adams, who was not a delegate to the Convention because of his absence abroad as envoy to Great Britain, but whose views can surely be considered as a reflection of those who were present. In Volume I of his Works, at page 186, he wrote: "It is by balancing one of these three powers against the other two that the efforts in human nature toward tyranny can alone be checked and restrained and any degree of freedom preserved."
I shall not call other witnesses, although many more are available, but rest on what I have said to establish that fears of the kind I have described dominated the delegates. The marvel is that this experiment in government, novel in so many respects, has worked so efficiently that this nation is now the envy of the rest of the world. Starting as a weak, struggling, uncertain group of states calling themselves a union, it has been transformed into the most powerful of all nations. Instead of thirteen debt-ridden colonies emerging into statehood after a devastating war for independence, there are . now 48 sovereignties, strong and robust, some virtually empires in themselves, two territories, the District of Columbia, and possessions beyond the seas. Instead of a population of four million inhabitants, there are now forty times that number. Instead of a national wealth too insignificant to evaluate, it is now estimated at close to a thousand billion dollars; and the legal basis for this phenomenal accomplishment, and the legal basis for the protection of your most priceless posses· sions- your life, your liberty, and your property- -is that

single parchment document containing some four thousand words emanating from those inspired men who assembled in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787.
Now, what is the moral to which I said I would point before concluding my remarks? It is this: Follow the example of the founding fathers and be as alertly fearful as were they, of usurpation of power, the forerunner of tyranny and despotism. Oh, you might say, that is seeing ghosts, the Constitution stands in the way, it is in no jeopardy, and is held in such high esteem and reverence as to be immune from destruction. I agree, if you refer to frontal attack; but what I ask you to fear are attacks on the flanks, made in the cause of expediency and sup· ported by vast popular demand of the moment. The t~ch· nique will be the argument that the Constitution is a living thing and therefore susceptible of growth, and must be adaptable and flexible enough to meet changes in the social and economic life of the country.
There can be no doubt as to the validity of that argu· ment when properly applied, but I ask you to take heed when its application would be destructive in fact, but not in name, of the very foundations and pillars of our Con· stitutional government.
In recent years, there has been a trend toward enhance· ment of the powers of the Federal Government. This has been accomplished by the expansion of what was formerly believed to be the limits of the interstate commerce power and the taxing and spending powers, and the Federal Government has thereby taken over the control of great fields of activities formerly considered the province of the States.
There has also been a disposition in the Federal Govern· ment itself toward encroachment by one department upon the powers of another, particularly the executive upon the legislative and judicial. This is not to say that the legislative has not cast covetous eyes toward the executive, nor that the judicial has been demurely free from flirtations with the legislative powers, but at the moment, as I see it, the executive advances predominate.
I could cite many examples, but time will not permit. Suffice it to say that any encroachment by one department upon the powers of another gives added power to the trespasser and diminishes the balance accordingly.
Take heed that the barriers so carefully constructed are not eroded by subtle means, sometimes not immediately discernible, but to my mind more dangerous than a direct attack.
If conditions require a change in the Constitution in its basic provisions, let it be done by amendment in the manner provided therein, and stand out against the plausible but insidious argument of flexibility induced by expediency or the pressure or rewards of the moment.
I am aware that the view I express has vocal opponents, but on consideration of their utterances, I detect, beneath their reasoning, a predisposition to authoritarian government, hidden by a facade of Constitutional form. So often such people are willing to exchange liberty for efficiency, and freedom for temporary security or reward.
And as I read the opinions of the great chief justice, the incomparable John Marshall, to whom we pay tribute today, he would not, as they sometimes contend, support their point of view, but would challenge it with every OQnce

of his unconquerable spirit and persuasion. To be sure, he is known as the great nationalist, the anti-states-right exponent, the liberal expounder of the Constitution, but these appellations came at a time when the pendulum was swinging toward its nullification. They were applied to the man who bravely stood foremost in opposition to theories which would have vitiated the plain purpose of the Constitution to establish a national government supreme within its sphere, theories which would have reduced it to the san:te state of impotency as had descended upon the Articles of Confed· eration which it supplanted. ow, when the pendulum is pointing the other way, it is useful to recall his words in McCulloch v. Maryland, that "no political dreamer was ever wild enough to think of breaking down the lines which separate the States and of compounding the American people into one common mass." And I believe Marshall, also known as the Guardian of the Constitution, today would be equally fervent in opposing a nationalism or liberalism in construction which would imperil duality of sovereignty or separation of powers, or both, because that in the long run would be as destructive of his cherished Constitution as was the narrow, debilitating states-right doctrine of his day. The latter spelled national dissolution and chaos; the former, if pursued to its logical end, spells totalitarianism and tyranny.

ATHLETICS
By CHARLIE STEELE '52
Frank Pflaging, something of a dark horse distance run· ner when the cross country season started, has proven himself to be a thoroughbred in the short space of two weeks. The dark haired Foreign Service Junior was just another track man until the cross country meets with Fordham and St. John's, and La Salle. I ow he's being compared with Charlie Capozzoli, and it's not just an idle comparison. In the three way meet with Fordham and St. John's, Frank was third behind a St. John's man and team mate Bob Lippmeier, but the time of all three was sensational in that particular Hoya victory. The following week La Salle was swamped, the Hoyas taking six of the first seven places, and Pflaging came in first. His time for the Georgetown cross country four mile course was just six seconds off Cappy's record, and Frank ran it the day after Hazel "slowed up the track". Of course Lippmeier was pretty close too, so Coach Sevigne appears to have again developed a couple of distance standouts.
Once the indoor season starts a few other Hoya stars will come out to shine. Johnny Peyton in the 880, Capt. Ed Kirk in the mile, Paul Baroncelli with the shot put, Vin Kelly in the 44.0 and John Skutka in the mile should be able to hold their own with the best.
On November 20th the 1954-55 edition of the Hoya basketball team makes its debut in the McDonough Gym. The "old grads" supply the opposition, logically enough, as it's the annual Alumni Game. The usual number of "ancients" (that is 25 and older) will be on hand, but the Alumni's starting five .promises to give the varsity quite a battle. The only two Hoyas to garner 1,000 points for the Blue and Grey will be there, 6'5" Bill Bolger and back court ace Tommy O'Keefe. Georgetown's third highest all time scorer, Frosh Coach Hugh Beins will also be there. Hugh stands 6'6". Miggs Reilly will be on hand, and probably Joe Carroll. It should be an inter· esting evening. Why not try to make it?
The game should also be interesting for another reason. It's the season's opener for the Hoyas, and not even Coach Jeannette can be sure of what this year's club will be like. Because of the mass scholastic withdrawals of last January this will be a predominantly sophomore team for the second consecutive year. Warren Buehler will be back, however, and that's something. Last season Warren sent the ball through the hoops to the tune of 511 points, an all time G.U. record. He stands 6'3", and will start at one of the forward spots. The other three returning lettermen are 6'3" Joe Bolger, 6'6" Don Morchower and 6'0'' Jack Walsh. All three might see a lot of action, but they're going to have to hustle. Bolger could wind up as the other starting forward as easily as not. He improved tremendously during the course of last season. Giving him the stiffist competition will be a 6'4" jumping jack named Dale Smith. Dale, a Soph, was a star on last
GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY ALUMNI MAGAZINE
year's great frosh team, and he can really clear those boards. At this writing it would appear that 6'6" Joe Missett will be the starting center. Joe is very strong, very fast and very determined. He hooks well with either hand, and could be bound for stardom. His competitors will be 6'6" Don Morchower, and 6'5" Kenny Rode. Ken may end up playing forward if Missett really takes over at center. Rode is a sophomore. The back court lacks an experienced duo, but it's not short on talent. Junior Jack Walsh returns, but he's going to have some job beating out sophs Matt White and Dick Percudani. White may turn into a real national standout, Ass't. Coach Beins thinks it's a sure thing. 5'9" Tucker Dunn will also be. in there. He may not start, but this set shooting 'phenom' will see his share of action.
Something is lacking from the above preview. That something is 6'2" Hank Morano. Hank has got to play, the only question is where. He can set with the best, and drive with anybody. This qualifies him as a back court ace, which he is. He's also a young bull, with tremendous shoulders. He can jump, and he has real speed. In other words he looks like a tremendous forward. Right now he's Buddy Jeannette's problem, but Buddy wishes he had a few more like it. As for Hank, well he just wants to play, he doesn't care where. He will.
The above should do most of the playing, but sophs Dan Devlin, Dutch Wagner, Dick Farrell, Buck Seymour, Ray Mazza and Junior Jose Casillias could step into the picture without surprising anyone. ·
Time to sum up. It's a young team, with nary a Senior on the club. It's a tall team, center 6'6", forwards 6'4". I! appears to have more talent than any team in tht past SIX years with the exception of the all Senior NIT Club of two years ago. It's very inexperienced. It's got a great coach in Buddy Jeannette.
Come on down the 20th of November and see how they look. It's going to be interesting.
Bob Windish, '52, has returned to Georgetown as soccer and swimming coach. The soccer team is going through its growing pains, but Bob has got the boys out there hustling. Dan Mulcahy, also '52 and an insurance agent in town, has been out helping Windish with the boys.
