              Bring Basketball Back To The Campus: Mikan Drive All Set By Keith Ashley "DePaul really needs a fieldhouse. It would be nice to get the game back on the campus, where it belongs." These were the words which were uttered by the fabulous George Mikan when he was asked for a statement last Friday night at Chicago Stadium after he and his Minneapolis Lakers had taken the measure of the Harlem Globetrotters. Big George had ht 4.1 11 Six members of the Internaparture. Mr. Basketball was hur- ri div pulling on nis socks an minutes waiting for the Lakers. Mikan's parting shot was, "I sure wish you luck."

Mayor Ernst Renter's address to Uptown and Physical Education students last Wednesday: hope, determination and courage. Lord Mayor Reuter's appearance was arranged by the DePaul chapter of Students for Democratic Action and sponsored by the University.I Berlin, said its mayor, mirrors the problem? confronting the world today: here two worlds, the West and the East, are living. Modern man will have to decide to which he belongs: he will have to choose whether to be free or slave. Berlin's Answer Berlin gave its answer long ago, Mayor Reuter continued. Tt was given in the first post-war elections,, during the air lift, in the calm, daily, existence of its people, -continually confronted with the Soviet menace. The way in which the German people have met the Communist danger serves as an example to the West. They have neither 'underestimated nor overestimated the danger. Berlin is a calm city, calmer than many other places in the world. We have shown what stubborn determination can do in the face of overwhelming difficulties." Western World Lacking It sometimes seems to me that the Western world has shown a lack of confidence in itself morally, economically and politically," Mayor Reuter said. Again, Berlin has set a goal for the West. "No one can live without hope, and Berlin h~s shown what our way of life cah. do." The crisis itself, along with the city's internal problems (290,000 unemployed, 80% of its industry dismantled) has served as a kind of mixed blessing. Because of the common cooperation demanded by the situation, Berliners have "learned what it is worthwhile to live for and what is not worthwhile to live for." Cooperation must also become the keynote for the rest of the world. In this respect, Mayor Reuter believes that the Germau youth is on the right track. While sceptical of the past, past leaders and old parties, the youth realize that we can no longer think in nationalistic terms. To survive, the West must unite—morally, politically and economically. "Without the survival of Eurone, even this great country (the U.S.) will not survive." It's childish to think that the Soviet Empire can stand forever on the banks of the Elbe. It will either have to go to the West, or back to the East." But the ty. This proof must be brought! defeat of Communism is a longto the VA before July 25, 1951.
