Platter ChatterSWEET: You Glenn Miller

fans can start raving again,as Bluebird brings back theMiller arrangement of "Fre-nesi." Itis a really fine recordwith Miller's sax - sectionshowing its best. The recordruns a very close second toArtie Shaw's arrangement of-the same.On theother side isthe swing tune "My BlueHeaven," withbossGlenn tak-inga few bars solo, to provethat he can really blow that"tram" of his. (Bluebird10994)

SWING: The late BunnyBerigan proves thathis musicwilllive for quite a while,withhis record of "Caravan." Bun-ny was just reaching hisprimeat the time of his death,about three years ago, andthis record is something youshould get and cherish- if youare a lover of good records.On the reverse side is "AStudy in Brown" also an ex-cellent recording that bringsback wonderful memories tothe older collectors.

Two sides of swingare pre-sented by Bluebird withChar-lie Barnet's record of "JumpSession" and "Swing StreetStrut." They are both fine re-cordings with Charlie andhisgang romping around andhaving a good time.

Another oldy comesback asTommy Dorsey andhi» Orch.present "Royal GardenBlues," this time coupled withthe old standby stomp num-ber "Jada." His arrangementof Royal Garden is good, butwe have heard several betterarrangements of "Jada."

STUDENT OBSERVER--by Jack Youngbera

(This columnexpresses the opinionof itsauthor anddoesnot inany way constitute a program on the part of theschool).

Since Thomas Dewey has thrown his hat into the politicalarena a campaign has been put into motion which has notonly violently smeared the Democratic administration, butalso distorted beyond reason the facts and issues involved.

Let us at least salvagethese few facts and this ma-jor issue which Dewey hassadly garbled.Let itbe statedhere and now for O. Vogelerand every other intelligentstudent that radicals andrevolutionaries in the labormovement do not necessarilyrepresent the views and opin-ions,political or otherwise,ofthe common union man.Ibe-lieve that any radical whotries to make a labor unioninto an adjunct to a politicalparty may destroy the laborunion if he succeeds, or jeop-ardize both if he fails. There-fore,Iamopposed to thePACand its actions. But remem-ber the action of the PACdoes not condemn the com-mon C. I.O. Union man, ashe does not necessarily ap-prove or sanction the policiesof this committee. Laborunion members, with the ex-ception of the fringe, don'twant to run the government,and they don't want the gov-ernment to run their unions.They know that unions inpolitics invite politicians intounions. These are the factswhich Deweydistorted to im-ply that the C. I.O. union isbackingRoosevelt,making nodistinction between the PACand its policies and the poli-cies of the common C. I. O.union man. Is this the fairunprejudiced point of viewDewey was going to give us,the American public? Deweyhas prattled at great lengthabout policies to help the la-

boring man in the future.Does Dewey have the inter-est of the laborer at heartwhen he deliberately misrep-resents,him to gain his ownpolitical ends? What good,then> are the rest of hisvague assertions and prom-ises?

One statement which O.Vogeler has repeated is* thatif Dewey (granting the im-possible) is elected, he willchange the federal govern-ment back to a simple funda-mental type of administra-tion. The fact which Deweyapparently fails to appreciateis that when a nation is intotal war, the federal govern-ment is, by necessity, a pon-derous and slow moving af-fair.Ibelieve that if Deweyhadhis way,President Roose-velt would be forced to abol-ish all boards, dismiss all di-rectors, rent 1,000 offices anddash frantically from one of-fice to another to take careof all wartime duties and ac-tivities.

Prom my point of view,this presidential race is thesame old story. The Repub-licans (traditionally) are en-gagedin mud-slinging to cov-er up the pitiful inadequaciesof their own platform. Manyrashpromises are beingmade.But the voting public shouldkeep in mind that the nextpresident will shape Ameri-ca's future and that rashpromises do not build a post-war peace.

VIEWS AND REVIEWSFrom the beginning scene of raw peasant life to the end-

ing scene of the agony of death, "The Song of Bernadette"is apoignantly realistic picture of Bernadette Soubirous andher attempt to convince the worlds of religion and sciencethat she had actually seen and heard the Blessed VirginMary.

The leading actress, Jen-nifer Jones, does an amazingjob as Bernadette. Her youngface expresses everythingfrom the stupidity and sim-plicity ofa dullpeasant to theradiance of an overwhelminglove of her "beautiful lady."There is never a suggestionof artificiality in any of herscenes.

The most interesting sup-porting part is that of Berna-dette's mother. The womanwho plays the role is strongand coarse- yet gentle andwomanly at the same time.She is so very human thatone cannot help living herrole as she plays it.

The vision of the BlessedVirgin Mary, however is ra-ther disappointing, perhaps

because it ishard for a Cath-olic to imagine any woman asbeautiful as the Virgin Mary.

All in all, the picture haselements of comedy and ele-ments of tragedy, but themost surprising thing aboutit is the power of captivatingeach member of the audienceand forcing him to live themoments of Bernadette's life,despite his own religious con-victions.

EDITORIALSThere has been a lot spoken and written around Seattle

College about the "school of tomorrow," so much in factthat it has seemed to take on for many of us certain char-acteristics of the mythical. It seems a little like buildingcastles in Spain, or setting up housekeeping in Utopia.It strikes us every year about this time that there is

a large number of students here at S. C. who don't real-ize just what is contained in that concept of the Schoolof Tomorrow^ We forget, or we never knew, that rightnow we as a group are going into the making of thatschool; that every day our activities, our thoughtsexpressed in action, our ideas converted into effort aredrawing up the plans and laying the foundations for it.Even now we can see the work underway. We cansee the school developing almost under our touch. Not somany years ago, there was only one building comprisingSeattle College. Now there are three; after the war therewill be more. The war has called a halt to some of theprogress— to things like material construction. But it did-n't stop the vital functioning of the school. It didn't stopspiritual construction, in the form of education, the birthand development of ideas, the free expression of thought,the power and desire to seek knowledge and truth, to findthem- and to build on them. It didn't stop these thingswhich constitute the essence of higher learning. It didn'tstop the smaller things either, the non-material elementsof interest, cooperation, friendliness,understanding, enthus-iasm, andhonest effort. These are the things that are vitalto the life and growth of a school. So long as we havethem we will continue to grow. And so long as we con-tinue to grow, we are making that School of the Futurea reality.

Tomorrow is not something that hangsby itself inmidair,

and suddenly drops from the skies into our lives. Tomorrowis only an extension of today, a gradual merging of the fu-ture into the present. We are a part of that merging.now our school of the future is becoming the School of To-It will be a long time before the process is complete;itmay never be complete, because whenit is our school willstop developing,and that's where stagnation sets in.But wewillbe around to see some of the big changes. We may notknow it,but we're seeing some of them right now.

That's why things like traditions are so important, whyour activities have got to go over. When something is a suc-cess or a failure around here- itcan't be shelvedpermanent-ly.It goes into the foundations,along with everything else.We're not performing individualactivities;we're part of thewhole scheme of things. That's whywe've got to make good.
