Editorial Excerpts From A Dialogue Between Mr. Dooley,

Ed it or, And Mr. Hennessy, Subscriber (with apologies to Finney Peter Dunne}

"Sure tis that the newspaper is feeling lighter to me this time round, Mr. Dooley. Could it be that your ink be runnin' thin, or is it that inflation has firced you to alter your stand'rds of quality?" opened Hennessy.

"Not at all, lad," said Dooley. "Tis just that the news has gotten less heavy now that 'alf a year is done. Ye be havin' no faith in the power of the spirit to respond to favorable cha nges of semester, Hennessy me friend."

"And what are you talking about now," the skeptica l Hennessy countered, "another of your foolish jokes?"

"A h, no, me boy, just the simple psychological facts of the problem be telling you . Picture this, a whole, 'uge bunch of students workin'

their fingers to the bone over their ciphers and geography lessons-­pushing themselves to the brink what with over work and nervous fatigue and all--and they all be tryin' to live until the end of one semester. 'End o' January' they keep chanting to themselves; 'all I have ta do is make it til there'. Ye see, they're all planning to relax and injoy the second 'alf. Then, poughff, and t is the end o' January and begorrah tis as if a great thundercl oud had disappeared," says Dooley.

"Sure, an' it's pure blarney that ye be tell in' me," cries Hennessy. "Ye've no idea what that younger generation is a- thinkin'."

"Aye, but I do. Those young people be thinkin' that once it's Febr'ary, the pressure be gone--dissipated they might call it. They feel tis a new leaf, a respite from the old boredom . Hennessy, Hennessy, be ye listenin'? Lad, how d'ya ever expect to understand the secrets of the human soul if ye be not a listenin' type? An' there is truth in the theory that a vacation rejuvenates them spirits too. Tak e fer instant that snow storm we be havin' now week or more ago. Ye be findin' what a friend is when he help ye with your car stuck to the axle in the drifts; an' it all beso peaceful and quiet all that white stuff layin' about . li ye be happy 'cause of th e end of the month, then will all this calmness falling frQm. heavens, ye fee1- that your sp ir it be simply takin' off."

"Dooley, me paper be only eleven inches wide this time, Dooley," cries Hennessy.

"Peace, Hennessy me pal. Remember who helped dig you out of the drift at County Cork junction. T'is jus t philosophizing that be makin' the news feel light to your hand," soothes Dooley .

"Begor rah, the columns be squeezed together more, an' the whole thing be not as long, an' the arrangement of the staff be different, an' I be believin', Dooley , that ye are pullin' me leg."

"St ill now, me friend while I be telling a turrible secret that I discovered. I be findin' out that I need me heav ier paper for my money presses as it seems that my dollars be wearin' through faster of late. So out of business prowess, I be changin' the quality of me papers about. D' ya ken, me boy?" asks Dooley.

"May your shamrock plants turn orange," yells Hennessy .

"A h, peace, me lad , I simply be following the dictates of me business sense and me lightened spirrrit," quote Dooley.

1K8Jv6_HV Heddo! You notice perhaps that

I'm talking a little differently-­well, it's this terrible cold I've got . Hav e you noticed all the people with colds? The Kleenex ' es are just thick in the air. I think it could be spring fever . I bet you all judge spring by the first robin?- -well I know it's spring no matter what anybody says. Last week I heard my first Honda in LaSalle's turn­around. So let th ere be a blizzard, we know the truth, don't we?

The wrestling team must really need NEIL ANDREWS--! ask, has anyone ever seen NEIL unmarred after a meet ? The other day I looked in on a swim team practice and I saw the guys, even GARY HESS, hanging onto some cute litt le red floats. SWIM team?? I couldn't understand why DOUG BASKER kept bouncing on the diving board but didn't dive in. Could it be he's scared of water?? And of course, basketball--! heard that STEVE CIULA and DUFFER ordered full - course dinners at 'Doon's after the Jacks on game, and then canceled them and left very mysteriously . You don't sup­pose it could be GIRLS?

You've all heard, natch, about the Potpourri Players' impendin g production? You know you've just GOTT A see it! It brings your favorite stars together for the first time . PAT MILLINGTON may faint for us if we're lucky . TONYMEN ­YHART will be a smash hit. And if EVERETT BINGHAM ever figures out how to run the tape recorder, he may make it too.

Oh yeh, and there are two modest guys in this school (!) who are too shy to advertise, so I' ll help 'em out. Ii you need a s ing­er for one of your par ti es, call T IM RANSBERGER-- he's got a grrreat soprano! And I want you all to know that you can get your Bost on Monkey lessons from KENNY BARTOSZEK. Quick - -­before the dance goes out!

Bout time to go now but please do rem ember what that ancient philosopheress, LOIS BOYER, once said: " He who wear string of garlic around neck need never worry about bad breath."

Au revoir, Frenchy

BOYS COMMENT ON IDEAL DATE

What special qualities would you look for in a gi rl before you would date her?

Would her personality win out ove r her looks or would her per­sonal appearance be more im­portant to you?

What would you expect of a girl on your first date with her?

ATTENTION GIRLS: I asked some of the boys here at LaSalle three questions. I think their an­swers are very interesting . They all seem to have a little in common when it comes to their idea of a dream girl.

John Kostry was the first boy I inte r viewed. His answers wer e as follows . "The special qualities that I look for in a girl are in­telligence; she has to be sort of good looking and she has to have a very good sense of humor. As for personality winning out over looks, I would say that they both count very much. A pretty girl without a good personality doesn't seem very pretty after you get to know her, whereas a plain gir l who has a good sense of humor and a very nice personality be­comes quite pretty after you ge t to know her. My idea of a perfect gi rl would be a combination of both. On my first date with a girl I would expect her to keep the conversation going. I would lik e to get to know what she is lik e, so she would have to tell me a little about herself. She would also have to laugh at my jokes."

I interviewed Dave Nowak next . He said, '' Before I would date a girl I would have to know that she had a decent personality, she would have to be nice looking and she couldn't be too smart or too dumb, just in between. Looks would naturally attract me first, but if this certain girl had a crummy personality I would ask out a plain girl with a ni ce personality before I would ask her out . I wouldn't expect too much of a gir l on my first date with her, just a good time."

Howdy Bunch had some different ideas. Howdy said, ''The girl I would date would have to be just plain nice. She has to hav e a good figure, she has to be able to take a joke that may be played upon her with a good sense of humor, she would have to be very feminine , a conservative dresser

and she cannot be a gold digger. She would have to be ab le to have fun with me eve n if we didn't go anywhere. Her personality would be more important to me. I would expect her to talk to me (but not TOO much) and tell me about her­self. She would have to be com ­patible and she couldn't be moody ."

Jerry Remble told me that be­fore he would date a girl he would look for these qualities: nice looks, friendliness, and she would have to like to have a good time . Personality would win out oveT looks with Jerry. All a girl would have to do on a first date with him would be to tell him someth ing about herse lf.

Randy McPhee said, "My typ e of gi rl would have to have a good personality, be good looking and be well dressed. She would have to be intelligent and she would have to have a good reputation." (She couldn't smoke or dr ink .) On a first date Randy would expect affection. (Hmmmmm mm)

Bill Sharp was the next boy I asked . He told me this, "The gir l I would date would have to ac­cept me for myself. I would want to be able to feel comfortable around her; this would mean that I wouldn't have to put on too many manners for her. She would have to be able to have fun with ­out really going anywhere.

Chip Newman said, "Before I would date a gi rl I would have to know that we would be able to have fun if we went out together. This would ·mean that she would have to have a good pe rs onality, she would have to act like a lady and have fairly nice manners. I would be attracted to a nice lookin g gi rl first but if she had a poor personality I would take a plain Jane with a good pE:rsonality over her."

GIRLS! Who do you think we have next? Last but not least I'm sure, Pat Mccue! Get out your note ­books, gir ls, and take notes so you won't forget how to act in front of Pat. 1st. You must be attractive . 2nd. You must have a good personality. 3rd. You can NOT act domineering in the least little way, or Pat begins to shake.

Next week the girls will get their chance to air their views on similar questions.

CHEATING IN SCHOOL-WHO'S CHEATING WHOM1

The r e is an incurable virus that is rampan t in schools and co ll eges throughout the count r y. It lur ks in every classroom and claims more victims by the minute. This notorious vi rus is known as cheat­ing. Once its bite is inflicted, no antibody can counteract the symp ­toms of wande r ing eyes, invention of ingenious tap codes and runny noses that r equire mar ked-up tis ­sues during tests .

Many contributing factors have led to the dominance qf cheating in school. Over 96% of the teen ­agers interviewed in a survey admitted tha t they chea ted on tests . Why do they do it? Seve ral fel t pressured by parents and teachers to "make the grade" in schoo l . II a teen was ave r age and cou ldn't compete with others mo r e in­telligent than he, he would cheat to stay up with the others . On the other hand, if a teen was intelli­gent, he cheated anyway because it was easy to do. Students argued that they cheated because many tests they took were designed to "catch you" rather than t e st knowledge, and they prefe r red essay questions to the "alphabet" tests.

is one where a stu dent takes an oath not to cheat on t ests or ass ignmen ts, and he pledges to report anyone who does cheat. Mos t teens tag this · sys tem a "moc kery"; howeve r , it does have its poin ts. It wor ks best in a gr oup where stud ents are s incerely in ­te r este d in a good education . Not all people may follow the oa th ; it depends on the individual and how much he wants to learn . Alt hough a group may condemn it , an individ ­ua l may think it's great. In a sc hool where ther e is a va r ie ty of eco ­nomic backgrounds, mora l s and inte ll igence levels, the system loses its va lue .
