from Berkley. But unknown Dus
tin Hoffman proves to be the real
star in his role as the confused,
but somehow very hip Ben.
“The Graduate,” directed by
Mike Nichols (“Virginia Woolf”),
is superficially a very funny, en
tertaining motion picture. Yet, it
goes much deeper, as it takes one
of American society’s most sacred
subjects, $ucce$$, and turns it into
a farce. The film is superbly di
rected and uses some very subtle,
but effective musical interludes
from Simon & Garfunkel.
Although the ending may be
someivhat ludicrous to some, I felt
that it is perfect harmony with
the tone of the whole picture.
This is one of the best American
made films to come out in some
time. It seems that the American
producers and directors are fol
lowing the trends established by
foreign films, such as “Morgan”
and “Blow Up.” Finally, it seems
as though Hollywood is becoming
concerned about art rather than
money. “The Graduate,” is a ma
jor step in that direction.

WHAT IS ST. PATRICK’S DAY?
By Mimsie Roberts
If a foreigner saw America for
the first time on March 17, he
would probably form a very
strange opinion of the country.
He would encounter millions of
people dressed in different styles
and fashions, but most of them
would be wearing green. March 17
is St. Patrick’s Day when across
the nation people celebrate the
life of St. Patrick of Ireland.
Since 1845, Americans have ob
served this special day in their
homes, schools, and churches. In
New York there is a special pa
rade that fills the streets. Prepara
tions for the Marcli parade begin
shortly after the start of the New
Year. Businessmen sell special
clothes, flowers, and cards for St.
Patrick’s Day.
This day is a great event for
the Irish; and so, large masses of
people, very feiv of whom are
Irish, turn out to celebrate. Evei-y-
one enjoys himself. The foreigner
in America, who is really impress
ed by the occasion, may want to
ask a citizen what the whole affair
is for and why everyone has on
green with clovers pinned on
them. The American, of course,
would answer that it was St. Pat
rick’s Day. The foreigner asks,
“Oh really, who is St. Patrick?”
Replies the American, “Huh, — I
don’t know!”
UNIVERSITY PLAYERS
(Continued from Page 1)
The National Players Touring
Company, whose trademarks are
skilled acting, beautiful costum
ing and sets, and imaginative
lighting, is America’s longest-run
ning touring company in classi
cal repetory. The company works
out of Washington and is on the
road from October until May: it
tours thirty-six states and Canada.
It has also made nine tours over
seas. The majority of the players
are graduates from the Speech
and Drama Department of the
Catholic University of America.
During its nineteen years, the
company has done plays from
Shakespeare, Sophocles, Shaw,
Aoschylus, Aristophanes, and Mo-
liere. The University Players have
also done television and off-Broad-
way productions.

MAY DAY PREPARATIONS
Preparations are well under way
for the May Day Pageant, May 4.
Classes are practicing their dances
weekly, following the theme of
Carousel. The Maid of Honor and
the Court have chosen their
dresses.
The Court has chosen a blue and
white dress with long sleeves. The
top is white organdy with a lay
back collar. The bottom is blue
with a matching wide blue belt.
Debra Grove, Maid of Honor,
will be wearing the same dress
with a pink bottom and belt.
