- • OPBNDONS My Ideal Man must be one who loves me not because of what I have as a woman, but because of what I am. JOSEFINA DE DIOS Secretarial A man who knows how to do household chores is my ideal man. I am not implying, however, that when we get married, I will make him my servant. No, not that. I just want to be prepared. A family cannot be expected to have maids all the time. Supposing I’d be indisposed, with no maid to do the cooking, what would happen? We would starved. ALFIA L. BENITEZ Pre-Med A man who knows how to tackle the intricacies of life without any reproaches for his failures is my ideal man. He must also be one who is industrious and Pe r l a Tr in id a d Secretarial My ideal man will be one who has the capacity of segregating right from wrong. He must be 5 inches taller than I. He must be diligent in his studies, loving in his acts and sincere in his praises. He must be a devoted Catholic and have a military poise. PERLA TRINIDAD Secretarial When BVQ shot to me the question: H’/ial is your ideal man? I could not help but laugh. I can imagine how precocious would I be, a fifteen-year-old girl giving out her opinion on such a controversial topic as an ideal man. But the “friendly persuasion” employed by him got the better of me. I had no choice but to give him inv idea, no matter how limited it may be. My ideal man must be tolerable in appearance, kind, understanding, have a steady job, be a devout Catholic. Most of all, he Pr o t a c ia Ta dl ip Commerce resourceful. He must be a good provider, friendly and approachable by his kin and friends. It is not necessary that he be tall, dark and handsome. It is enough that he is acceptable by the critical eyes of the public. I mean, I should not be ashamed to go around with him. But most of all, he must have a stable job and unquestionably be a devout Catholic. PROTACIA TADLIP Commerce Jo s e f ina de Dio s Secretarial A man who is sincere, faithful and true to his words is my ideal man. He must have a job of his own to earn a decent living for our family. He must be a good Catholic. The fear of God will undoubtedly deter him from committing acts that are contrary to the accepted norms of conduct of our Catholic community. But above all, he must be one who knows how to adjust himself to the situation of the times... be it good or bad. LYDIA C. YBANEZ Secretarial Siiir e l e y Ta ng Commerce II I am not the materialistic type, but at least he must have a job of his own to support a family. He must have good public relations. He must be thoughtful, kind, understanding. It is not necessary that he be a Chinese, for true love knows no bounds. It is enough that he has the same blood that runs through my veins. He must not be a hypocrite. SHIRELEY TANG Commerce My ideal man must be one who knows how to dress simply, but properly. He must be sincere in his words, in thoughts and in deed. He must not be too possessive, especially since a woman like me wants a lot of friends. He must not be a show-off, but rather humble and resSe r e na Pe na l o z a Secretarial pectful so that he will command respect from his fellowmen. It is not necessary that he be rich or poor. It is enough that he has talents and industry to earn a living. Of course, he must be a practical Catholic. For isn’t it true that faith can move mountains? SERENA PENALOZA Secretarial (Continued on page 25) Page 10 THE CAROLINIAN MY IDEAL MAN (Continued from page 10) The stay-at-home and carefree type is not my ideal man. What then is my man? Well, he must be one who is responsible and quite intelligent to understand me. He must be the Adonis type with a crew cut. He must be a good cage player and exemplary student. He must know how to dress properly. He must have a well-modulated voice and be a good dancer to boot. And lastly, he must be a devoted Catholic. ROSA C. GARCIA BSHE I It has been well said that to have an ideal come to reality is a remote possibility because it is beyond the reach of man. But I believe that despite that, one can still wish for an ideal, like say, a man. Well, my ideal man must be handsome, learned, wealthy, well-behaved, understanding, humble and above all a practical Catholic. I give much emphasis on religion because it leads to virtue and to doing things acceptable to God, government and society. SEGUNDA AL. MEDILLO BSEED-HE II My ideal man must have the courage and genius of Dr. Jose Rizal. He must have the honesty of Abraham Lincoln. He must have the wit of Bishop Fulton Sheen and the soothing voice of Frank Sinatra. He need not necessarily look like Rock Hudson or Romeo Vasquez but at least, he must be neat, gentle in his ways and speech, thoughtful, understanding and free of any vice. But most of all, he must be a very good Catholic. DOLORES NACUA Pre-Nursing My ideal man must be religious both at home and outside. He must be educated and intelligent in order that he can hold his head high and nobody throws his weight against him. He must be a disciplinarian to establish peace and order in the home. And lastly, he must be a good provider. A family cannot live on love alone. ERLINDA R. CLAPANO Liberal Arts A chivalric and gentle guy is my ideal. He need not be an Adonis type, but at least he must have the physique to withstand the fury of a typhoon. Re must be sincere in his ways, friendly, considerate and forgiving as to faults. He must be a little bit taller than I am so that I can wear highheeled shoes. And to top them all, he must be a good Catholic who frequents the communion rails. AIDA PEAAFLOR Secretarial I am not putting standards to the man I will marry but to a certain extent I wish I will meet one who has the qualities of an ideal man. He need not be handsome. It is enough that he is presentable. He need not be necessarily rich, but he must have a stable job to support a family. He must be brilliant in his field. He must be a devout Catholic and have a strong love for family and home. He must be resourceful and knows the dignity of labor. He must have a sense of humor and understanding for all possible angles of life. MILAGROS E. CAMILON Commerce II Fl o r d e u s Tu ma l iw a n Liberal Arts Frankly, I am too young to give my opinion about my ideal man. Nevertheless, I believe there is nothing wrong for a young girl like me to be curious about the “what” of my ideal man. In the first place, I am a woman who cannot escape from the clutches of ideals. Really, if my reason will give way to my emotion, my ideal man must be one who likes and loves me without reservation. His likes and dislikes must be in conformity with my own. He must be educated, intelligent and responsible. FLORDELIS TUMALIWAN Liberal Arts My ideal man? Well, he must be soft-spoken, sincere, kind and broadminded. It is not necessary that he be a TDH type, for physical features will wither away by the sincere test of time. What is important is that he be tender in his manners, soft in his voice and most of all cheerful and can make our company lively.

U.V. fitted the same role as they trailed on a Macoy-Reynes-Palmares onslaught on the Lancer hoops 19-11, after 10 minutes of scintillating basketball. Benchmentor Gullas sued for time but it didn’t do them any good as the Warriors boomed with 4 baskets in a row 27-11 after. After a second time out the Lancers nibbled the lead 30-17 as Eddie Cabahug and Ponce returned fire. Skipper Reynes with 2 personal fowls was recalled to the bench and a “bearing” on the machine lost, the Warriors slumped in its production. The Cabahug scoring twins completed numerous fast break plays but still the Warriors hang on the lead 36-32, at half time. The fabulous U.V. trail was the over all picture in the second half as the Lancers matched the Warriors on scattered baskets, until the last five minutes of play when the Cabahug duo triple-slammed to level the score 50-all. The fans were on their feet as the either-you-or-I battle went into its climax. Galdo, on a lay-up shot and Macoy on a quarter jump fought back after another stalemate, 52-all. The score reversed thrice after U.V. snatched the lead 55-54; 5655; 57-56 at the 4-minute mark. Macoy stalemated the count for the last time 59-all on a charity conversion. Baz, a court demon, scored successively on layup shots and it turned out to be the hardest blow on the hapless Warriors and time ran out to close the game 69-65. The dream game of the season turned out to be a lively classic as in a detective show where the “eye” (Lancers) keeps on trailing the culprit (Warriors), collar him and beat him to the draw at the end.
