YOUTH SESSIONS
ATTENDED BY zoo
Catholic Students Reiterate
Opposition to Atheism
ond NnnanoIInicna
and Communism,

Two hundred delegates from Catho-
lie colleges and high schools of the
District participated yesterday in the
convention of the Catholic youth of
Washington, held at Georgetown Uni
Versity.
The students reiterated their de-
termination to resist communism and
atheism through radio programs and
parish group discussions and discussed
the Supreme Court reorganization
issue, the child labor amendment,
sit-down strikes, co-operatives and
other topics.
The principal speakers were Rev.
Francis P. LIE Buffe, S. j.. New York,
business manager Of America and or
ganizer of the sodalites in the East
ern States, whose subject was I'VE
Do Not Always Act as Catholics"
and Rev. George A. Mcdonald S. j.,
st. Louis. Rev. Arthur j. OLeary,
S. j., president of Georgetown Uni
Verslty, delivered the invocation.
Human Rights Defended.
Catholic youth, said Father LIE
Bufte, both as Catholics and Amer
leans, is vitality interested in the
preservation of human rights under
the Constitution and should oppose
the child labor amendment on the
ground it would give the Federal Gov
eminent control in industry of all
individuals under 18 years of age.
"All bills that make for centraliza-
ton at Washington" he said, I'VE
yp,n nrino
should be opposed as such.
I'VE do not always act as Catholics
because we do not have a Catholic
attitude. But first of all, what is an
attitude? 1t means the way a man
views things. 1t implies his judg-
ments on life, on situations in life,
health, wealth. honor, on the moral
problems Of life" Father lie Buffe
said.
Cooperative Advantages.
Father Mcdonald urged on the
group a study of the cooperative
movement and several factors he held
up. as its advantages. He offered the
movement as the Way Out of Our
Economic Ills" the subject of his
address.
Since the National Sodality stu
dent convention in 1885, Father Nc
Donald said, more than IS uni
versities, colleges and high schools
have reported that there exist on the
campuses, study clubs, forums, SYM
posia, courses on co-operatives and
credit unions and in many instances
cooperative enterprises from Coop
erative buying clubs to cooperative
stores, cafeterias and dormitories."

came almost routine. We marked
the trail ahead with willow twigs
planted so feet apart in the snow.
On July We established a camp,
stocked with food for 80 days, at the
0-foot-high base OF the great
buttress which rises from the head of
Walsh Glacier to the lofty pass be-
tween Lucania and Steele. Fresh snow
which fell on the steep slopes forced
us to establish intermediate camps
dug into the crest Of the ridge at
10000 and 1890 feet before we could
finally pack our equipment into the
upper pass.
Temperatures now dropped rapidly.
and during the week at the pass camp
hovered between zero and Is below
every night. Climbing conditions be-
came so wretched after 20-inch fall

to abandon good deal of our food. one
sleeping bag, an air mattress, and to
cut the bottom out Of our tent to
reduce weight.

July gave us chance for a swift
removal to location 1000 feet from
the peak.
The following morning dawned ab-
solutely cloudless, and We decided to
make desperate effort to reach the
top Of Lucania before the weather
changed. Our food was getting low
and We wished an ample margin for
our attack on Mount Steele. After
a bitterly cold night we left camp
at 8 am. and started up the great
northern ice wall of the mountain.
The weather was fawless and the
views over Alaska and Canada superb
beyond words, but climbing was ter
riflcally arduous.
Ice Cliff Appalling.
Constantly roped together to avoid
the danger Of hidden crevasses, we
managed to reach a 16.0o0-foot notch
between the second and third OF Lu-
canias four peaks. We had a bite to
eat. Another peak, 500 feet high,
lay between us and the summit cone
which rose just to the left at the head
OF an APPALLING cliff Of rock and ice.
shall never forget the view from
the pass. 1t was still, almost cloud
less, and every peak of the st. Elias
Range was in sight, vast ice pano-
rama which cannot be surpassed in
grandeur anywhere on earth eycent
possibly by the Himalayas of India.
At 230 We put on our ice creepers
and tackled the ridge. 1t was ex-
ceedingly steep one side dropping off
10000 feet, and was of hard ice, crust
ed with a veneer OF wind-packed
snow. We made its summit at 3:15,
