T Certainly the members of the Glee Club and Dramatic Association of the Scholastic year 1906-1907 have every reason to congratulate themselves on the Work that has been accomplished. The Glee Club, practically the only exclu- sive organization of any note among the students, consists mostly of the older land higher class men. It aims at securing the best talent in the line of musical and dramatic matters' As one member ' remarked at' the initial meeting of the year, the Glee Club Was on its 'last legs. This does not mean that there was any fear of its being down and out. The membership has been greatly decreased since many of the older and-abler men did not return. A don't-give- a-care spirit had also manifested itself. A good bracing up Was required. Mr. Leo Andries, a person Well adapted for the position, Was unanimously chosen as president. His own-energy and ability supplied the necessary stim- nlus and confidence. All Worked with a Will, and to this combination of lead- ership and ,co-operation can be ascribed the success of the -entertainments and other doings that added much to the pleasure of a fleeting and agreeable school year. Since the membership, includinglthe newly initiated, amounted to only twenty-fo-ur all told, 'a. meeting was held for the purpose of deciding Whether or not the Glee Club should be open to the student body in general or reserved to the Senior Boarders only, as had been the case heretofore. As a result mem- bership Was opened to all, a move that has been productive of much good. This A O 4 NV Else 011115: unh Z1BramaIin Qissxciutinnf measure chiefly concerned the Day Scholars. At the follovving 1'I16Gt1Hg.S.1Xt6GH Day Scholars were admitted, making the total membership forty, Whlch WHS then fixed as the maximum number. The a.ddition of these capable gGIltlGII19I1 to the ranks has been the source of added strength. All ventures novv have the combined help of Boarder and Day Scholar contingents. A union has been effected, which is of the greatest importance in every school, but especially in our own, where organization must take the place of numbers. Cne of .the Glee Club ventures was the Chronicler, the irst paper issued from Canisius, modest and unpretending, but of Whose originality, neatness and honest effort We can justly feel proud. , We had the pleasure of frequently listening to Mr.. Ctto Ramler, director of the Crlee C-lub Orchestra, and his accomplished musicians, Whose. selections all will agree Were some of the best numbers on the College programmes during the year. 6122 Qlluh Enable Qauartztte A pleasing novelty in this year's Crlee Club was the formation of a double quartette., Including voices of such quality and richness as those of Joseph Lang and Thomas Vesey' as irst tenors, Conra.d Rissberger and George Schneider, second tenors, Charles Costello and George Lannig, first basses, and Bert Boland and Joseph Buschelman, second basses, it might Well have been expected that their Work Would be harmonious. And a repertoire of stand- ard. and catchy songs, perfected by earnest practice, made their appearance an eagerly expected number on every programme. The hearty appla.use With which they were always received attested to the pleasure they conferred. T t Elec miluh Bramatic Qafferings When in after years our thoughts turn backward to the scholastic year of 1906-07, When We recall the good times the year afforded, none will stand out more prominently than those provided by the Cr. C. and D. A. Many and brilliant were the udoingsv and great credit must be given to the president and his able corps of assistants for their foresight and their selection o-f socials and entertainments, Which broke up many a dreary space of study with some- thing Wo-rth While. ' t ,, ' , ' - The first dramatic effort of the year, 'fWanted-A Confidential Clerk, Ulu whom it jlllap Qlionnemz A To roll away the dark clouds that shroud the futureusuccess of one of our number and to tear down the wall that holds him from public gaze, let it be known that we have in our midst a great singer. Hisnvoice is sweet and melodious, and keeps one spellbound with admiration. Though modesty pre- vents his appearing in public, the quality of his voice is enchanting. Authorities have prenounced him the future Caruso. To him some day the world will tender an enthusiastic reception, and to him will fall the honors of the masters. Many years will not elapse before Weshall see his name published everywhere, his singing will be the topic of 'the day-in short, our tenor, Mr. Thomas Vesey, will be the idol of the world, the object of wonder and admiration to all posterity. was presented on Hallowe'en and the ability displayed in the work of our amateurs elicited many a round of applause. Joseph Lang as the f'Oliver- Oscar boy, 'fDuke Brand as Lushington and Clarence Maier as the Janitor took down the house by their fun-producing antics. Jonathan Dobbs and Dick Sharp were ideally portrayed by Messrs. Mahoney and Koch. The Hhitv- of the evening, however, was Mr. Frank Kempel' s Harry Dalton. The musical part of the programme was ably taken care of by the Crlee Club Orchestra. The Masquerade Ball has always been, and undoubtedly ever will be, regarded as the social event of the season. In commenting on this year's ball, the only words that can in any wa.y express 'our sentiments are the following: :CA grand success in every detail. The hall was a. perfect dream, the vaude- ville performance excellent and the ball itself brilliant. Heretofore, as usual in affairs of this kind, the cakewalk has been the feature, but this year it was abolished, and to- take its place was arranged a vaudeville entertainment. The burlesque on King Lear by Thomas Vesey received a great ovation and Was considered by many the star event of the evening. The 'Tleasures of an Auto- ist evoked great laughter, as this cast admirably succeeded in de- picting the misfortunate stunts which oft-times ensnare the Ububblemanf' The clever parody, jokes and all-around good work of our comedians, Messrs. Ma- honey and 'Maier and the impersonations of Messrs. Lang and Vesey brought to a close an entertainment which Was a 'fstunnerf' After the show refresh- ments were served in the Oriental tea room by Messrs. Quinlisk, Costello, Vesey, Dang and Lannig, a.ttired asChinese coolies. Next followed the Grand March, led by Messrs. Boland and Mueller. The costumes worn were unique and pleas- ing. The remainder of the evening was spent in 'ftripping the light fantastic, and the Terpsichorean charm held all 'till the midnight bell anno-unced the forty days of fasting. - 7 1 One of the most elaborate entertainments put on by the Glee Club in many years was that of December 9th, The old farce classic, MBOX and Cox, was the princip-al number of a long and varied programme. The P-'5l1'T31C1PantS: Messrs. B-rady, Koch and Brand, brought. down the house. with their truly artistic handling of the surprising and ludicrous scenes thathave made Box and Cox so popular. 44lVhen Doctors Disagree, the second farce, tickled the risibilities of the audience to the utmost. Brand' s delinea.tion of t-he rugged old Hsaltn was ably seconded by all the others of the cast, Messrs. Borneman, Maier, Schneider, Lang, Boland, Mahoney. Kempel, of course, Was the indis- pensible Nig. The musical numbers by the orchestra and quartette rounded out a bill that sent the audience away bubbling over with good humor and loud in their praises of the evening' s entertainment. The staging came in for a great deal of favorable mention and contributed not a little to the natt.iness of the whole affair. ' 1 For beauty and finish of stage effects and skillful portrayal of character parts in a short sketch, the last entertainment of the year easily led. The play- let, :Tor Friendship's Sake, sketched and adapted by Thomas Vesey, proved a ivell+adapted vehicle for the abilities of Leon Selman, Henry Koch and Otto Kreuzberger. The audience, once aware of the serious nature of the piece, settled down to a thorough enjoyment and appreciation of its merits. The opening scene, especially the lighting effect, was certainly the 1no'st beautiful and most cleverly Worked out of any ever attempted by the students. r i p. V V k . . .......,.,.. ,.t ' Qczne tram a 6. QE. Ulbeatrinal T 8' lVell aware that a little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest menf' a little fun and horse-play was added. Maier and Boland took part in an original sketch, of which the songs were quite pleasing. A, screaming farce concluded the program, and screamingU it was, in truth. Possessing little of the humoro-us other than the one main situation, it was made extremely laughable b tl 15 ' 4 ' ,, y ie ex empove efforts of some and a lamentable loss of memory by others. In this cast were included Otto- Kreuzberger, Carl Brand, Frank iliempel, J oe Lang, J oe Blaum, Cary Marsh and Joe Metzger. ' ' As was invariably the case, the musical numbers by tie orchestra and uar- tette, and violin solos by VValter Saxer were some of the most enjoyable features of the evening. Having thus concluded its dramatic functions for 1906 07 th s i , - e present Glee Clubs can look back with keen satisfaction on the success of its efforts and that it has the well wishes of the students for future success goes without Saying. The several card parties held under the ,auspices of the Glee Club con+ tributed their quota toward Ndriving dull care away. Handsome and useful prizes were awarded the winners and served to create keen competition. Many of the boys proved themselves genuine experts at their favorite game VV' ' 1th the advent ,of the new. boarder card room came renewed interest in checkers, chess, pinochle, whist and the .various other parlor games. Louis Thum painted, in a most artistic manner, checker boards on the tables, and it was seldom, indeed, that they were not in use. Koch, Buschelman, Metzger, Kotheimer and a few. others were the most ardent devotees of chess, andthe lively interest displayed in the checker games reminded one of the typical coun- try store sessions. , P Ii 9 Uribe Else Qiluh Orchestra Too much cannot be said of the excellence and merits of the Gflee 'Club Orchestra. Composed exclusively of young students and directed by Oi1G.0f of their number, Otto Ramler, it has attained to a degree of general superiority not to be expected of its kind. Its work has always been a feature of every public function held in the hall and has earned the warmest encomiums of critics and public alike. Tothe students it has always been a source of never- -ending delight, aiding materially to while away many a dull hour and giving the lovers of the mirthful maze many an opportunity of indulging their fancy. In the various Glee Olub theatricals it played an ever indispensable role. DIRECTOR .......................................... Otto J. Ramler PIANO ..... ............................

Orchestra has succeeded in establishing a permanent and an enviable reputa- tion for itself throughout Western News York. Since the disbanding of the Buffalo Sym- phony Orchestra the representative orchestra of Canisius is at present considered the best in the city. It consists of about fifty-five members, many of Whom are eminent musicians of the city, and the 'skill which such an organization, under the guidance .of its far-famed director, Fr. Bonvin, S. J., has acquired need not be considered absolutely extraordinary. ' Formerly it gave but one public concert a year. -This Year, however, it was called upon a second time, when it appeared upon a stage better adapted to the Wants of an orchestra of its size. .The first concert was given, as usual, in the'College Hall. The same program was repeated in April at Convention Hall, for the benefit of the CatholicyAid Society. ln this hall thetrue merits of the orchestra manifested themselves, confirming all who heard the concert in the opinion that the present C. C. Orchestra is the best in Buffalo. . 12 p be hair The College Cho-ir has, for the past two years, been under the direction of Eather E. W. Strerath, S. J., while Professor Mischka retains the' position of organist. Singing has always been considered an indispensable adjunct to religious worship, and Canisius has always given it' a prominent place and has always, we are proud and happy to say, been fortunate in the possession of a choir whose efforts were at once a 'pleasure and an honor. AI-Iymns of more than ordinary beauty are used with pleasing effect in 'connection with the old true a.nd tried church classics, and none has ever been attempted of which the young choristers have not acquitted themselves with the greatest credit. Every selection, under the masterly guidance of their director, -has bee-n a finished production. Visitors never depart without dropping a. word of prais-e and Commendation, and not infrequently the work fof the choir is -mentioned as a revelation, a real delight. C r',t - A I Sopranos. Altos. .

The entertainment tha.t accompanied the Reading of Marks for the I Quar- ter, November'16, 1906, took the form of a series of literary numbers on Long- fellow and 'his poetry by I andllf Academics. Eugene Martin read a concise and polished biographical sketch and Edgar Maline a thoroughly enjoyable and extremely well-wrought essay. A solo by Nicholas Eunk was followed by the story 'of Hiawatha and Evangeline,7' cleverly paraphrased by Edwin Mon- -nig and Stephen Carroll, respectively. German and Latin versions of The 77 CC 7 Slave' s Dream and The Arrow and the Song' were a. decided innovation, and Messrs. Kiefer and Metzger, who delivered them, were accorded a good- natured reception. Musical. selections by the Crlee Club Orchestra, the double quartette and Joseph llang concluded a program of unusual merit. The contest of the Academic Classes in Elocution was held in connection with the Reading of Marks for the II quarter, February 1, 1907.5 A crowded house greeted the young contestants and the audience. was not slow to evince its pleasure and appreciation. The contest it-self was spirited and highly meritorious, and so well did each and every one acquit himself that it was with great difficulty that the inal awards were made.

U 3Bb1Ins'npiJitaI Elsputatwn ' Every year it is customary for the students of the class of philosophy to gather and treat their friends with some form of literary entertainment on the feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, the patron of philosophy, Pursuant, therefore, of this tradition, invitations were issued to many of the prominent clergy of the city to attend the solemn disputation of March 7, 1907, held in the College parlors. The Rt. Rev. Bishop Colton and about twenty-ive priests honored the occasion by their presence. Mr. A. Beasley, president of the S-t.

Father Strerath, S. J. fbraturinal Qlluntest The annual oratorical contest of the class of Oratory of the College, is an occasion looked forward to with delight by' the many friends of the students and faculty. As large an audience as ever before greeted the college orators was assembled in the College Auditorium on the evening S of April, the tenth. Several prominent representatives of the Buffalo clergy and laity were in attendance., The classmates of the contestants, wearing the class colors, blue and white, occupied seats well in the front. After a musical selection by the Glee 'Club Orchestra, the evening 's entertainment was opened by Mr. C. A. Brand. In his subject, The Trend of the Times, and the Social Outlook, the orator clearly pointed out the pernicious 'tendencies which characterize the various spheres of activity today, then, continuing, the speaker drew a vivid picture 'of the ominous and portentous future, the logical results of the present trend. Mr. Brand's discourse was a masterpiece of clear and convincing argumentation. The following speaker, Mr. Frank A. Wanenmacher, delivered a forcible and impressive oration on Liberalism and Liberty. Proceeding with a clear deinition of these two greatly confounded terms, .the speaker clearly showed the baneful effects of the prevalent spirit of Liberalism in Europe and in our own country. Upholding liberty, and scorning liberalism, the orator, in a clear, pleasing and able manner, made a powerful impression upon the audience. The next speaker, Mr. A. J. Brady, in his oration on The Logic of the 'Social Upheavalu carried the audience by storm, from the moment of his appearance on the stage. A prepossessing stage presence, coupled with a natural ease in delivery, held the audience in rapt attention. His subject, though very diiiicult, was handled in an able and convincing manner. The appreciation of Mr. Brady's effort by the audience was best demonstrated by the spontaneous and rapturous applause which broke forth at the close of the speaker's address. After a musical selection by the orchestra, Mr. A. G. Rung -delivered a discourse on the difficult and rather philosophical subject, The Ethics of M01-.-11 Culture. Differing greatly from the preceding speeches, ?g3t,l:i3SaIligig11iZ59T and a1'fum9f1'Q, Mr. Rung, betit said, made an abstruse question intelligible ingjs entertainmdht alilffllnglrtll-lnllllg and attractwe manger' The Clowns Speaker of the even' bf Univeu 1 P ,H 1.1 . .

' ' f' P' ' 0 T A is The judges who acted at the Cratorical Contest were the following Canisius graduates: Messrs.: ' ' Charles V. Nellany, A. B., '91, LL. B. Henry Vom Berge, B. A., '92. Francis E. Fronczak, B. A., '94, M. D., LL. B. John M. Flannery, M. A., '02, M. D. ' Lawrence Highland, B. A., '98, M. D. ' The oratorical Contest for 1906- '07 was a pronounced success, and it furnishes but aj,-iotlleryof those entertainments whose happy conclusion adds to the prestige of their Alma l ater. ' ilibnmas il-Elura s , p Tuesday evening, April 23, 1907, the students presented their annual drama at the Star Theater before ia-large and enthusiastic audience. The historical tragedy, Thomas More, which is translated from the German, is a very difficult play, but the students were equal to the task, and executed their roles surprisingly well. ' The opening scene vividly portrayed the populer state of mind at the time. It brought out the story of the tragedy to the fullest advantage and prepared the audience for a better understanding of the complications about to follow. The staging throughout, with few exceptions, was of the best. p Leon Selman was an ideal type of Henry VIII. His conception of the role was good, reflecting the latent nobility of the king in his better moods and his reckless disregard of law, justice and religion when under the influence of passion, and the blandishments of his tempters. ' f Narcissus Sosnowski, in the title role, was ever calm and firm, opposing to the vehement and passionate outbursts of the infatuated king an unflinching voice in favor of law, order and justice. At times some disappointment might have been felt at the steady reserve of his character, for the More of history was of a merrier turn. Yet, when considering the trying circumstances in which he was placed, it must be granted that little opportunity was afforded to bring out this trait. Carl Borneman, as the fawning flatterer, Thomas Cromwell, and James Mahoney, as the cold, calculating Count Butler, ably portrayed their roles, and acted effectively for the better bringing into relief the unbending uprightness of More. - The more influential representatives of the citizen class-Martin Stock, Elias Sheep, and Pancratius Pepper, delineated by Frank Kempel, Henry Koch and Carl Brand, respectively -brought out sharply the differing opinions of the people on the absorbing questions of the day, and the iiery enthusiasm of Stock, the somewhat cynical judgment of Sheep and the liquor-inspired ravings of Pepper caused no little mcrriment. As the grand-children of More, Paul Horgan and Edward Poutie were well received by the audience. Martin Reiber assumed the role of Fowl, an invincible and intruding dema- gogue, which he acted very cleverly. Donald Gallagher, as Richard Rich, Parnell Quinlisk, as Foreman of the Jury, 'George Schneider, as Lord Chief Justice, Edwin Monnig, as Kingston, Raymond O'Rourke and Francis Pilliod, as servants to the king, all greatly contributed to render the performance a pronounced success. The Rt. Rev. Bishop, together with several distinguished monsignors, occupied a lower box, whilst a large number of the clergy held seats in the orchestra. B bbakespearean ikenital 'Mr. John Rummel, president of the New York Society of Elocution, gave a delightful reading of hfacbeth in the Hall, lllednesday afternoon, November 21, 1906. The masterly interpretation of many diflicult passages showed care- ful study and a thorough understanding of the play. That llfr. Rummel' s efforts pleased the audience was evident from the hearty and frequent applause accorded him. The Glee Club Orchestra added greatly to the pleasure of the afternoon, while Mr. Vfalter SaXer's violin solo was truly an artistic performance. l 17 3BuhIin Estate I Government Cwnership of the Railroads was the subject of the publlc debate given by the Debating Society on the evening of May 27 th. Although the public debates of the Society, for several years past, have been, without an exception, complete successes, it is an indusp-utable fact t-hat t-his proved to be the banner year for the Debating Society, for in no debate as yet held by that association has a more difficult subject been as competently and efficiently handled as the railroad topic this year. An appreciative and enthusiastic audience greeted the debaters. Rev. Rudolph Meyer, S'. J., superior of this province, together with many repre- sentative clergymen of the diocese, graced the occasion with their presence. The chairman of the debate, Mr. J. 'Parnell Quinlisk, 'opened the evening's discussion with a clear and comprehensive sketch of the railroad problem. To enter into the relative merits of the respective debaters is not within the scope of this article. Suffice it to say that all the speakers acquitted themselves very creditably. The affirmative speakers, Messrs. Frank A. WVanenmacher, Carl A. Brand and Edward J. Eschrich, as well as the negative speakers, Messrs. Leo E. Rennis, Hubert F. Crean and Andrew J. Brady, all showed in their respective addresses that they had mastered a very difficult and complex subject. The elegant diction, .the oratorical style, the logical reasoning.. and the graceful delivery were invariably mentioned in the various op-inions expressed on the debate. - An impromptu rebuttal followed the debate, and here the keeness of retort and ready command of language manifested by all of the speakers elicited the applause of the audience. The judges of the debate, the Hon. YVilliam H. Ryan, M. C., Hon. George A. Lewis, C. N. Millard, Rsq., David I.. Redmond, M. D., and Henry J. Doll, M. D., decided the debate in favor of the negative speakers. The chairman of the judges, the Hon. Wfilliam 'H. Ryan, in announcing the decision, congratu- lated the debaters and their professors. In the course of his remarks he said that although he had been a member of the Railroad Committee of Congress for many years he had never heard a clearer and more succinct statement by students 'of the railroad problem than in the deb-ate of the evening. Mr. Ryan, in concluding, again felicitated the debaters on the success of their efforts., and in the name of the judges he thanked them for the pleasant evening they had spent. A ' ' An informal reception was held in the parlor afterwards. The debaters. were introduced to the distinguished judges, and passed an instructive and entertaining hour with them. Mr. Ryan recounted many' sparkling anecdotes of the National Capital, discussed Teddy and his policies, and many of the serious questions of the day. All the judges reiterated their favorable com- ments on everything connected with the debate.

Undoubtedly, much beneiit has been derived from the various exercises conducted. Every meeting, replete with information, rarely attainable by individual work, has had the additional charm of being a change from the monotony of the class routine. In the classes which have no regular class society, there have been one or more private exercises which were not only a source of great pleasure to those Who witnessed them, but also an adva.ntage to those taking part. In all, this field of Work during the past year has been very successful. ' x . Qlanisius Ctlullege Eehating burietp NVith a membership larger than any the Society has ever enjoyed, the G. C.

Sindele, S. J., the Society has offered every facility to its members of acquiring a relish for graceful delivery, purity of diction, and solidity of thought. ' The principal work of the Society was debating, but other speeches, prepared and extem- pore, and essays also received attention. Among the more important debates of the year were: Resolved, That Gratory flourishes more in a Republic than in a Monarchyfi Resolved, That Public Libraries a1'e conducive to the Public Welfare. Hgesolved, That the ,Middle Ages are unjustly called Dark Ages. Resolved, That the Advantages, intellectual as Well as moral, derived from Novel Reading are greater than the Disadvantages 'fResolved, That Immigration be restricted.

Accordingly, the line of Work taken up by this Society consisted mainly of essays on the Lives and Characteristics ot the great Orators, both ancient and modern, and prepared and extempore speeches on current subgects. Y Under an eiiieient board of oiiicers, consisting of Gr. Albert Rung, President, Carl -A. Brand, Vice-President, Leo E. Bennis, Secretary, and Henry J.

Qrahemir c Most of the time of this class has been devoted to earnest and diligent study, and although such a thing as a literary society had been formed, for good reasons the intended Work of the society had been dropped, and all the exercises in elocution, etc., were conducted as class matter. During the year the class has shown exceptional interest in Latin authors and Latin in general, and on one occasion particularly, prompted by a sincere devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Whole class successfully undertook to Write some dedicatory Latin essays to which a devout poem was generously added by their teacher, Rev. Francis Betten, S. Ji The year 's Work in English will be closed by some good sound essays on thevarious characters of Macbeth. . 22 A I A unique class entertainment was given on May 11th, 1907, by lV. Academic A. To present a literary program in dramatic form gave opportunity for the elocutionary abilities and histrionic talent of the members. The subject was The Month of May, .in honor of Mary, the Queen of May. Typical Italian boyhood vied in the love of the Madonna. Merry youngsters, freed from school, have their frolicsome antics, and decide to hold, May-devotions in a hermit 's wayside chapel. The May-altar is prepared, music and song resound, and the devotions of the lst of May consist in the boys' poems and compositions .declaimed before the Virgin. On the last day of May the declamations comprise Catholic flowers in honor of Mary from Protestant gardens, and her praises sounded in five diiferent languages. Fra Angelico, the, hermit, breaks down in his concluding sermon 5 but that has happened to others before him. Withal, the treat was delightful and appreciated by the large audience. Rev. Father Sommerhauserand his 40 pious and scholarly young thespians are to be encour- aged by a cordial Come again. II. anh Ill. Qtahemits Qlllass Entertainment of Cflbirh Qtahemit Q The morning of June 1 was a delightful one for the students of the College. Wliilst the Collegiate Department was listening to a masterly lecture on ,the profession of law, given in the Day Scholars' Library by Mr. L. J. Collins, the members of -Third Academic A. entertained their fellow-students of the Academic Department in the College Hall. The conciseness of the program and the regularity with which each single number was ifendered was one of the pleasing features of the entertainment, the unanimplis verdict being: if there be any fault, it was too short. Thus the objectionable feature of such entertainments, too great length, was happily obviated. Although it would be difficult to say which number of the program was best, still, if we take as the criterion of ourjudgment the opinion of the audience, the premium would undoubtedly have to be awarded to the Latin play. The Latinity, though classical, was easy of com- prehension. not exceeding the intellectual capacity of the smaller boys, while at the same time it afforded no small pleasure to those who had delved deeper in classical lore. The manner in which A 23 'r 5 LL? the actors entered into their parts. as also their delivery, added no small eftect to the understanding of the entire play. This, coupled with the costumes, which were the toga and mantle of Roman times, almost made one imagine that he had before him Roman youths and warriors, and not lllG1't3.fXC2tC18lQ'1- cians.

Moreover, he said, that the strongest argument we have that Latin, after all, is not so udifticult' of being mastered is proven best by the easy manner, the clear enunciation, and Huency of delivery with which the. otheriwise difficult Latin was handled. 2 is , 3429?

In placing habitu- ally the great masters of human1ty's most cultured thought and solid virtue before the plastic soul of youth, the library will needs become a nursery of the great and good in man. V Canisius College, it would appear, has grasped this exalted mission of the library. The Day Scholars, in. particular, have been very fortunate the ,past scholastic year to see their library I greatly improved every way. In the following we shall briefly scan the results accomplished. Exterior elegance, and comfort appeals strongly to the taste of youth. Accordingly the Day Scholars' library has .donned new trappings, new furniture, dainty carpeting, drapery, and ornamentation have rendered its four rooms cozy haunts, where lingering is pleasant. An appropriate new discipline of hallowed quietude pervades all and assures undisturbed reading or study. Practical arrangement has eliminated disorder and all noisy table games have been snugly housed in the Day Scholars' lunch narlors. The magazines, protected by neatholders, have their special stands, the papers are suspended on elegant files and rest on graceful easels. The new library office is typical, business is the motto there and service is prompt. ' Anent the literary treasures, the best has been procured. About 800 new volumes, cov- ering well the various branches of booklore, were added to the shelves this year. The new Catholic Encyclopedia, Harper 's Book Facts, Encyclopedia of Social Reform, with an array of works on general information and various lexicons much enriched the reference department. . Philosophy and Ethics received valuable reinforcements in every branch. Oratory can boast la wealth of new acquisitions bearing on rhetoric and the literature of all times and landsg whilst poetry was scarcely less favored with the bards and their commentators from old' I-Iomer down to Horace, Shakespeare, and our own day. The many juveniles are simply in literary clover. The very names of Fathers Finn and Spalding, of R. Barbour, K. Monroe, E. Tomlinson, etc., set young blood a-tinkling. The periodicals to the number of thirty include The Month, 'Harper 's, St. Nicholas, Messenger, Review of Reviews, Century, Donahue 's, Popular Mechanics, 'Scribner's,, etc. Among the twenty papers are the Examiner CP-ombayj, Union and Times, American Boy, S. Heart Review, Freeman 's Journal, Scientific American, Youth 's Companion, Rome, etc., and a paper respectively in Latin, German, French, Polish, Italian and Spanish for our young philologians. Some of the complete sets of works purchased deserve mention, as Lingard's lzlistory of England C10 vols.j 5 Nature Study C20 vols.j, World's Famous Orators CIO vols.j3 Family Edition of Poetry Q32 volsj, Shakespeare C44 vols.j, Irish Literature C30 vols.j, World's Greatest Literature Q60 vols.j. I The greatest credit for all these achievements is due to the able prefect of the Day Scholars, Rev. Father Sommerhauser, S. J., but also to Rev. Father D. Hammer, S. J., in the able management as librarian. His staff of assisting students likewise deserve their meed of praise here. They are Messrs. J. E. Bickel, A. S. Schweizer, V. P. McDonnell, A. S. Winter, J. F. X. Knaggs, EK. M. Sieffert and C. K. O'Brien. D The furnishing of the library involved an expense of Sl,200. Thanks are due and hereby again extended to the Day Scholars and their many patrons for the valuable assistance offered in raising these funds, as also to several friends, who made handsome donations of good books, which are ever gratefully received. EBay Qnbulars' lunch Beams Among the improvements at Canisius the past year the Day Scholars' lunch rooms, if last, are certainly not least. Where. apparently, not an inch of space was believed available to relieve the congestion of the narrow and gloomy place of bygone days, the kindness of Rev. Fr.

The 'varsity basketball team this year displays a record which compares most favorably with the record of last year's championship quintette. For the quint enjoys the reputation of intercollegiate champs of VVestern New York, which they earned by defeating the Niagara University live. The University of Buffalo was also included in the strife for the coveted honor, but for obvious reasons, cancelled, at short notice, both games, which had been scheduled for some time. It has been the great desire of basketball enthusiasts for the past years to see these two quints meet, but, although dates were given and accepted, no game ever matured, for U. of B. failed to appear. The squad began training in the latter part of November, and the outlook was anything but bright, for lVerder and Ehrman, the team's sturdy guards for the past three years, had departed for other fields-the former matricu- lated at Notre Dame, while the latter became a student at Ohio State Un-i- versity. These men had been the mainstay of the team, and, consequently, it seemed discouraging to break in two new guards. Then Paul Snyder, who had been taken on the team towards the end of the season and played a star, game, was also among the missing, being entered in the University of Pennsylvania. Bennis, Helmiak, Eschrich and Mahoney went to make up the nucleus of the team. The call for candidates found Frank Kempel, who starred on the 704-705 Prep. team, again in the running, as was also Charlie McCabe, a prom- inent player from one of the city's crack teams. Joseph Blaum of last year's Reserve team swelled the list of promising men. The tirst tryout was in a game with the speedy Central Y. M. C. A. five, 31 'Barsitp Jgaskethall Team O. S. MURPHY, S.

The first one proved a walkaway match, in which the 'varsity lacked the necessary requisites for a winning team, i. e., spirit, team work and good shooting. The second one showed a slight improvement, but, nevertheless, the prospects for a. victorious season seemed to he enveloped by dark clouds. However, the old adage, Every dark cloud has a silver lining, put hope into the hearts of the management, and no stone was left unturned by them in the perfecting of the team. 32 The next game was played with practically the University of Rochester at Dansville. The 'Varsity surprised its supporters by taking Rochester into camp, 46-35. The following night 'the ' Varsity, fatigued from the longjourney and having. accumulated several injuries from the Rochester game, lined up against the crack 13th Separate Company of Jamestown. Best not to' say too much about it. The- result was 58-18. After this contest the team 'dis- banded and the individual members repaired to their homes for theholidays. After vacation the quint resumed training and gradually rounded into form. Just a.s the team work was nearing-perfection, and the members of the team- had become acquainted with each others style of play, they received a lament- able setback. Leo- E. Bennis, the star center and 'Varsity captain for two years, fell ill with typhoid fever. Much, indeed, was feared, for the team relied greatly on his outjumping his opponent, starting the plays and figuring in their execution. The management was in a dilemma, b-ut immediately set to work to fill the vacancy. Capt. Mahoney succeeded Bennis at center, while Blaum became a regular at forward. TVith odds against them, several mem- bers being injured, the 'Varsity was whipped into shape, and took the measure. of every opposing team. The work in the last few games was simply excel- lent. Large scores were rolled up against strong teams, while small, indeed, were the points secured by the opponents. But three of the regularly scheduled games were lost. Quite a number of exhibition games were played with teams much stronger than the ' Varsity, but its work always elicited much admiration and praise. I ' , - The support given the 'Varsity by the students was loyal, indeed, and the presence of a large number of outsiders who congregated at each contest testif iies to the interest taken ina well-played basketball game. ' v The best of feeling existed 'throughout the season between the 'members, which, no doubt, accounts for the splendid results obtained. There,was no individual playing, but all five worked as a unit. 'i Rlaum at forward, though this was his first year in fast company, proved to be a. very .efficient man. He was a good shot and was always relied upon for his aggressive spirit. Helminiak, as Blaum's running mate, put up a fast game, both on the 'offence and defence. His spectacular goal throwing was the feature of many contests. What aided considerably in the victories this year was the rapid develop- ment of Kempel and McCabe as guards. As the season wore on these men became a tower of strength to their team mates, always working, never lag- ging: they most creditably filled the shoes of Ehrman and lVerder. and won a. bright place in the hearts of the admirers 'of the 'varsitv. Eschrich readily filled the position of guard or forward and could always be depended' upon for consistent work. f Art Rennis, captain of the Reserves, was added to the team and proved, in the games in which -he participated, that ho was of the right caliber. lVith a little more experience Art will prove a valuable candidate for a regular position 'on the 'varsity next year. All possible credit must be tendered Father Murphy for his indofatigable 33 Zeal in alwmgillg games, the endless trouble to which he subjected himself for the team' s sake and his every ready and kindly word of advice. A At center was found Lee Bennis up till the time Of his illness, when Mahoney, though a forward, played. the position the rest of the season, and it was his energetic Work as captain, his heady, consistent and aggressive playing, his invaluable coaching, his unerring ability in shooting that contributed most to the success of the team. t . Cf the games enumerated below, the most spectacular were with St. Pat- Tickps, St. Stephenrs, Noon Class of C. Y. M. C.. A., Niagara University and the Eldridge Cycle Club of T onawanda. St. Patr1ck7s, a very formidable team, was held to eight points, while in the St. Stephen's contest the visitorswere without a point at the end of the first half, and at the close of the game but four points were announced to their credit. This was the second meeting. The 'first resulted in a victory for the 'Varsity, 19-16, but the St. Stephen's men were so exultant over the fact that they had held the score so close, and that without the services of one of their best men, that they decided to try conclu- sions the second time. Consequently they made their reappearance on the 10th of March, fully determined to lower our colors. Theyscore, 35-5, in favor of the 7Varsity, shows how well-they succeeded. - Another fast contest was held with the Eldredge Club. Basing their opin- ions on the reputation of the visitors, ovoi-yono predicted a close score, but the home team was in such fine shape that basket after basket was rolled in. It was easily seen in this contest that the weak points of the 7 Varsity had been eliminated. Though the score was large 'the contest was well worth witness- ing.. The Tonawanda men played hard and fast, but the lightning-like team work of the 'Varsity proved too formidable to cope with. The victory over Niagara University was the. result of another great strug- -gle. The ifirst half was closely contested, the result being 10-8 in favor o-f Canisius. The second half opened strong on Niagarals part, for they strove might and main to- gain the lead. The excitement became intense, as the Blue and Gold five swung their team work into order and sent the University's chances for victory glimmering. The Purple and lWhite quint strove hard to turn the tide of battle,ab-ut the timekeeperl s whistle soon sounded their death knell. y T ' . ' BBEDYU l 1 NOV- 25, Canisius 31 Exhibition G. Y. M.

Buschelman, 1Valsh, Bennis, Ronan, Brady, Kempel, Koch and Mahoney responded to the call for candidates. The pros- pects for a fine team Were bright, indeed, with nine ofthe old squad again 'ing uniform. Two new candidates, Brand and Persons, were played in Ehrman's and 1Verder's positions, respectively. The 7 Varsity lost two good men in these. Ehrman was 21. good shortstop, While 1Verder was a crack box artist. A In the first game St. Michael's was shut out, 17 to 0. The game was played right up to the handle by the 'Varsity, both in batting and fielding. A series of games, best three out of Xiive, with the crack 19th Century Club was arranged, and, strange to say, the ' Varsity took three straight falls out of their more experienced opponents. Since 1898 the Centurys have been the bugbear of Canisius and it seldom, if ever, happened that the 'Varsity succeeded in defeating them. This year the hoodoo was broken and broken properly. The nrst contest Was a Walkaway for the 'Varsity, the latter Winning 12 to 1. Baritot, an old-timer, was in the points for the Centuries and served delicious curves and speed, upon which the 'Varsity whetted their keen appetites.

Battles, the pride of the Century Club, had ta delivery which was relished equally as well a.s that of Baritot. Manager Bidwell was certainly sorely perplexed, but not discouraged. Q I ' The date set for the third game was at hand and 'the Centuries were eager for the fray. Cy Persons ma.de his debut as a mem- ber of the 'Varsity and served such shooting slants that his opponents were completely be- wildered. The game went. only five innings owing to the late arrival of the visitors. The Brand of playing put up by the 'Varsity in these games of the short fall season' ,stamp- . ed it a winner. ' y ' blaring Season f ' Beporting day brought forth quite a number of new men, in addition' to those who were regulars in the fall. ' , In several instances it was difficult to make a choice, consequently the selection was deferred until quite late in the season. The same men who rep- resented the College in the fall were aga.in awarded their positions, while Schneider, Helminiak and Lannig of the recruits became ,Varsity men. I At the team meeting a motion was made and carried that Father J. hfahoney, S. J., be made head coa.ch. The matter was submitted, and Father Mahoney consented to coach the team. He was formerly a star member' of the 'Varsity for a number of years, hence the confidence placed in him. The nine opened the season by defeating the Lawyers, Club 6 to 1. Lannig, the new pitcher, twirled the latter part of the game and displayed commendable headwork. He possesses nice curves, speed and control, and proves a reliable pitcher. 1 g The next contest was with the University of Buffalo C'Med- ics, who were trimmed 12 to 5. The Fidelity Trust team was also trounced to the tune of 12 'to The University of Buffalo was next taken into camp, the result being G to 2.

That history repeats itself was certainly proven in this game. It brought back pleasant reminiscences of that 7 99 'ga.n1e, when Central bowed down 1111der the stroke of Canisius to the t11ne of 22 to 0. C11r present coacl1, Father Jolm Mahoney pitched tha.t memorable contest, struck Ollt 19 Central batters a11d allowed b11t two- scratch hits. The score this year was 15 to 0. Central played hard to stave off the defeat, but' all to 11o- avail. The first i1111i11g proved their undoing, when ive singles, a base on balls a11d an error netted the Blue and Gold six r11ns. However, Central proved game and never displayed a lagging spirit. James, younger brother of Father John, was in the box this time and acquitted himself with no- less distinction. His record was 19 strike o11ts and 11ot a single hit., in fact, only 0116 or two balls. went to the outfield. Going some, eh? Fort Porter 11ext fell U11Cl9T the l1a1n1ner. Tl1is team is acknowledged to be one of the fastest in the city, consequently when tl1e 'Varsity wended their way to T116 Front, at defeat was expected. Persons was in rare form, the Fort team securing b11t four hitsj The 7 Varsity played a magnificent game through-e out, botl1 in the field a11d at tl1e bat, a11d there- was greats rejoicing in the Canisius camp when the final score, 3 to 2, was anno11nced. The Colise11n1 C'l11b proved easy picking for the ' Varsity, 9 to 3. Brown, the visiting pitcher, held tl1e team down to 2 to 1 1111til the fourth inning, when he was clo11ted for G1101lgl1 hits to tally five runs. Brady, the Hminimv third, baseman, twirled for t.l1e 'Varsity and let his opponents dow11 with three hits, and b11t for errors wo11ld have scored a sh11tout.

The score was 2 to 2, and there was aman on first and second when Mahoney came to bat and made a drive toleft. Koch scored, Eschrich went to third, Mahoney landing on second. Lafayette's ca.ptain claimed the ball was foul, but the umpire had ca.lled it fair. 'Lafayette refused to abide by the decision and left the field. The game went to Canisius 9 to- 0. Lafayette had scored their two runs mostly by chance. They had secured but two hits, while the Varsity had six, three coming successively in the fifth. Vlith men 'on second and third and Blaum at the ba.t things naturally looked gloomy for Lafayette. Everyone regretted that the contest did not continue, but they may be satisfied before the end of the season, as these same teams will probably meet on neutral grounds. The team suffered quite a loss in the Lafayette game, when they lo-st the ser- vices of .loseph'Helminiak. J oe was the irst man up for the 'Va.rsity, and was prostrated by one of ,Nash's shoots, receiving it on the head. He was conveyed to the clubhouse, where he revived. Later on he was taken home and is now doing nicely. T A double-header had been arranged for Decoration Day with the Lawyers' Club and the 19th Centuries, butowing to- unforeseen circumstances the after- noon game was cancelled. A -The 'Varsity put up a good game in the morning and showed consider- able implrovement in their work with the stick. The result was 15 to 5. The score stood 4 to O in favor of the 'Varsity until the fifth, whenthe Lawyers with three of their four hits, coupled with errors, secured four runs, tieing the score. The ' Varsity, no-t to be outdone, scored three in their half of the fifth, on singles by Blaum and Brand, a base on balls to Ronan a.nd a triple by Ma- honey. Though this-put the game on ice, the 'Varsity added to its lead by scoring in every inning. lVith the exception of the one game lost to I . iiift . ' ' Masten, the 'Varsity has a clean slate, and it is earnestly hoped that in the games still to be Gold on top. The team extends its thanks to Father hfur- phy, who, assisted by Andrew Ronan, filled out a good schedule, securing the best teams avail- able under the circumstances, and to Father Mahoney for his able and valuable coaching, which, as the record shows, aided the team won- derfully. Q This season, no doubt, has been one of the best in baseball for several years, the team easily keeping up to the standard and uphold- ing the prestige of former years. ' 39 ' Sep. Sep. Sep. Oct.

Having insured bright prospects to foster the mens Sana by means of a better library, novv happily accomplished, the Rev. Father promptly resuscitated from its ignoble grave the Athletic Association that it might look after the Day Scholars' '4physics and keep the ,Hdull boy away.

The Day Scholars once more started Uthe ball a-rolling, and encour- aged by the generous support of their leaders, the members started in to make this a banner year in the history of Day Scholars' athletics. That they have suc- ceeded can be plainly seen in thepfollowing account of the different branches cf sport. ' . , ' ' J ' n Zaasehall A .J At a meeting called by Mr. Ronan and attended by candidates for the first team, Mr. Moynihan-was chosen manager and Mr. Brady, captain of the Day Scholars' baseball team for 1907. The .candidates gladly accepted the services of Father Mahoney, S. J., as coach of the team. Almost five years have elapsed since the Day Scholars cheered on a Well organized and uniformed first team. This Year, however, We have organized a team that upholds the standard of former times. The Day Scholars can pride themselves upon the fact that We still have Within our midst many of those players who helped to make up the last Well organized team of 1901-2, and that together with the remaining talent We have a first class team. VVith Brady on third, Ronan on second, Helminiak on first, Persons, Mac- Donald and Burke in the box, Kavany and Reid at short, and Moynihan be- hind the bat, We have as good an infield as any other team of our class in the city. The outfield is occupied by Walsh in left field, McCabe in center and Smith in right. Taking all into consideration we cannot but feel pleased at the Work of the .Day Scholars in the past year. W'e have successfully carried on an interesting ii 42 A handball tournament. The basketball team has shown up better than any other team of many previous years. In the members of the baseball team We surely have a winning team. But, fellows, we have, once 'more, just begun. lVe have laid the foundation for the future. Next year, no doubt, will find the Day Scholars' Athletic Association, now numbering about 200 members, greatly advanced. Encouraged by the work we ha.ve done in the past, next year will iind us .members of an association that will be a credit to ourselves, our moderators and last and by no means least a credit to Canisius College.

Left guard Cn Thursday evening, December 13th, the Day Scholars' basketball team, accompanied by a large number of rooters, journeyed to Tonawanda, where they played a surprisingly good game with the Eldridge Cycle Club7s basketball team, one of the 'fastest organizations in this vicinity. Although this was their first game and although they' were outweighed to a man, the Day Scholars sue' ceeded in making 29 points to their opponents? 40. The first half of the game ended 19-15 in favor of Tonawanda. In the second half, however, systematic team work, the result of much practice, and also the weight of the Eldridgr team, began to tell upon our players. As a result in this half they obtained 521 points to our 14. The Day Scholars' team has shown by this game that what 43 ! i P 4 P W L s 015132 Smoker . An event' of unusual interest a.nd most gratifying results was the smoker given under the auspices of the Senior Day Scholars at the College Villa for the benefit of the D. S. Athletic Association. Though Jupiter did not just dote on Villa Park the evening of June 5th, 1907, still a considerable number of gentlemen gathered with a large contingent of Day Scholars for the delightfully social meet. The committee of arrangements had transformed the spacious assembly hall into a gem of elegant decorations, and conjured up a menu whose very sight was sufficient to challenge desperate onslaughts. The Day Scholars? Juvenile Orchestra made a decidedly appreciated debut, whilst-progressive pedro, merry songs and informal speechmaking gave general zest to the happy occasion, which gave vent to its good will and friendly feelings by staking the D. S. A. A. with a handsome and liberal purse. In short, the unprecedented undertaking is deserving of all commendation, and will go far to link the Day Scholars closer to their Alma Mater. Accordingly the-assembly dis- solved itself with a mutual au revoir next year. s p ianarhzrs' Qltbletir Qlssnniatiun Fall Term. gggafh gf QBffiLg1'5 ,Spring Term. O. S. BTURPTTTY, S.

Here it ws seen that if anything Was to be shown for the season's work, the work must be done at once. And it Was, for in the remaining month of the season Manager Avermann arranged a schedule of nine games, the team prac- ticed regularly and faithfully, with the result that of th-e six games Which were played of the nine the Reserves were victorious in five and lost the sixth only after a hard struggle and after about five minutes of extra time had been played.

During contests all Worked together well and little individual playing was done, although in caging the ball 'cSliver Marsh was little short of a Wonder, and Koch, Bennis and Avermann were very consistent. The manner in which the latter' played the center position was easily up to the standard, While Mueller and Flahavan made a pair of guards who could always be relied upon.

After it had been fairly started it was seen that the six teams were not very Well matched. This, together With. the fact that it co-uld be foreseen in what place each would very probably finish, caused interest to die out. Few games were played and the organization came to a standstill. - Yllhen the new Athletic Association officers came into oflice they disbanded these teams and launched the Academic League. This was composed of 'teams from each of the Academic classes, on which all boarders, not members of the 7Varsity or Reserves, were permitted to play. Thisventure resulted better 'than had been expected. The contests were hard fought and close, interest ran high throughout, and there was a lively fight for the topmost position between I and TV, the former Winning out bv one game. Because of the late beginning only eighteen games were played. Standing and rosters of the teams follow: A W on. Lost.

A review of the seasonls work discloses the singular fact that the guards, Baynor 'and Snyder, did an unusual amount of the scoring. Besides playing their guard positio-ns in faultless style, they were extremely adept in 'working the hall down the field, and when within distance of their own goal either one was generally there to successfull finish the play. One of the most ini- portant factors in the fast, accurate and scientific team work of the Juniors was the all-aro-und ability of Neumer. Alwavs in the game, speedy and aggressive, cool and heady, he was to be depended upon in every play, and his work all over the field was little short of marvelous.. Captain Metzger was particularly strong in caging the hall, hut his share in the team work and good judgment in directing the plays also made his services an important part of the whole. Although Martin at center was handicapped at iirst hy a lack of practice and experience, his later work proved that his selection was well justified. As utility guard Short played a hard, fast game and in emergencies kept the team up to i-ts original standard. The Junior division evidently has a penchant for developing good basket- lmall teams and this review of the men Who composed the S1906-07 souad proves their right to a high niche in the H all of Junior Athletic Fame.

The Junior division has always boasted of having winning baseball teams and is keeping up its reputation this year as well as ever. i The Juniors, although not as strong as they were last year, are well able to cope successfully with any teams in their class. They have broken into the College League and have for some time kept a tight hold' on first place. The Juniors did not receive a handicap as the team did the preceding year, but had to win all their games by superior playing and, of course, an ocea- sional t'horseshoe. . ' Owing to their appearance in the Teague, the Juniors were unable to get -as many outside games as would otherwise have been the case. Their first outside game resulted in a victory over the Belmont Juniors by the score of 2 to- 1. T'he game was verv close and exciting throughout. The Juniors assumed the lead early in the game and held it during the remaining innings. Their next game was an easy victory over St. Michael's Y. M. S., second, by the large score of 23 to Jr. The Juniors scored in every inning, due largely to their excellent. stickworlc. Their schedule includes games with the Taeomahs, llfanakahs, Belmont Juniors, Young Prospects and others. The team is com- posed of J. Seitz, catcher, H. Neumer, pitcher, J. Martin, first base, C.

In their first game they defeated the Le Couteleux Juniors in a Walkaway game by the score of 23 130 4. They Were defeated by the Mohawks in a somewhat listless game by the score 7 to O.

Their 'opening game- resulted in a victory over School 32 by the score of 10 to 0. Their next game Was also an easy victory. This time over St. Michael's School. The score was 23 to 9. They also defeated the WVindales by the score of 111 to 1. The next game Was won from S-t. Vincent's School by the score of 13 to 7.

Deneen and Liddle took the title in the HE-astern League. The Winners in the National League proved themselves champions by defeating beth the Bearders and the Day Scholars. Smith defeated Rayner for the championship of the division. The prizes awarded vvereatvvo hand- some Watch fobs. The Basket-ball League kept the division occupied during the long winter months, besides creating a' lively interest in the race for first place. The St. Louis team took first place rather easily, so the contest was mostly among the other teams for a place in the first division.

As later- announced, the Canisius man, in com- petition with graduates of several of the large colleges, had one of the very bestre- ports and his choice was prevented princi- ' pally on account of his intention to study medicine. As this study is not included in the Oxford curriculum, the judges were led to give the appointment to one who would be more directly benented by the Oxford -course.

One hailed from the interior of Canada, another from sunny Oklahoma, while the magority came from the eastern states. , In studies, as well as in athletics, the boys of the Second Division made an excellent showing, for out of ifty-four prizes awarded during the year twenty were carried off by the Junior Boarders. . Among the Hrst events of the year was the formation of the Sodality and Athletic Asso- ciation. The names of oiiicers elected will be found elsewhere. I As usual, there were a few late-comers. Leo Kelley, the nice young man, arrived the day before Baker and Fisher came near occupying Davy Jones' locker. Then Michael Daly, he of turf fame, arrived late in the first month, while From Salem hails young Charlie Quinn, - Who saw both Yale and Harvard win At baseball and at football play. He came one late September day. The annual retreat put a damper on the spirits of most of the boys for a few days, and so did the rain on the free-day following. It was remarked that on nearly all Villa days in the fall it rained. St. Nicholas' Day was celebrated in an appropriate manner and pleased the boys very much, with the exception of those who were not present. The members of the choir were feasted royally on the twenty-second of November, at a banquet given in the refectory to commemorate the feast of St. Cecilia. , ' Then came one of the most agreeable features of the year--the publication of The Chronicler, the college paper. The first attempt of the boys in this line proved very successful, as did all subsequent ones. After Xmas, Lepotski returned from Punxsutawney. When asked why he did not return at the beginning of the school year he remained silent, but it was rumored that he missed the semi-annual train and was compelled to wait. u One of the pleasures of the winter months was the skating. The Second Division' had an exceptionally good pond this year and the boys made the best possible use of it, as could be expected. Tobogganing was -not as good, on the whole, as former years, but quite a few pleasant recreations were spent in this pastime. - P 67 r , YY, , l LT Eluninr Enarhsra ' Aside from out-door recreation there was much amusement within doors. Fr. Sommer- hauser generously opened the Day Scholars' Library to the Boarders,-and Fr. Strerath brought his graphophone to the hall several times, furnishing therewith music and merry monologues, which greatly pleased the boys. ' The Juniors attended quite a few farces given by the Glee Club and on Shrove Tuesday evening were on hand for the Slush Gang' ' ball, which they appreciated very much. A St. Patrick 's Day was celebrated with due festivities Calbeit during Lentj, the refectory was decorated all in green, poems of iErin were declaimed, one by Cornelius Deneen, the Second Division speaker, and several selections were rendered by the orchestra. As was the case last year, the Teutons downd the ,Celts in basketball. .After Holy Week and Easter, the boys began to look forward to the end. However, they were induced to be as thoughtful as ever of the month of May, during which all were sup- posed to make a special effort to behave in a becoming manner. How many behaved thus is best learned from the list of those who received the mark of distinction, the May-card. Families were well represented in the Junior Division this year. From Lockport, N. Y., there were three Ginty brothers, from Erie, Pa., three Devines, from Seneca Falls, N. Y., two O'Keefe boys, and from New York City, two sons of Dr. Ennis, an old student. It was noted with pleasure that, throughout the year, the division gave good support to the Junior basketball and' baseball teams. It can be said without the least exaggeration that mighty Fatty Devine, otherwise known as Caesar, who gathered tried rooters about him on the side-lines and led them on in their work of rattling the opponents of the Junior baseball team, certainly. contributed very much towards winning many a contest. 68 The ability of our Juniors runs in various grooves. Frank Moehringer .deals with the artistic, and some of his drawings were considered so goodias to be accepted for the Lest We Forget. - In the course of the year, quite a few of the boys left the division. 'Some became day scholars and others went to the First Division. Ludwig Baumer of the J . D., and hisilorother, from the First Division, together with the rest of the family, have sailed for Europe, where they will remain a number of years. May all happiness and success attend them! A After Christmas, a checker tournament was set in motion and for some time proved to be an interesting diversion. There were two leagues, major and minor. E. Snyder proved best in the major, while S. Flynn took' first in the minor league. Snyder defeated Flynn twlo out of three games for the championship of the division. . To satisfy the pool sharks a pool tournament Was inaugurated. lt was composed of twelve teams, and each team played forty-four games. 1 After a closerace R. Smith and A. Raynor won the championshipl Smith defeated Raynor two out of three games for the championship. . The following is the league standing: 79 - Won Lost. Pct.

The challenge was accepted and after an-exciting contest Smith and Raynor won two out of the three games. A series of games was next arranged with the first division. The latter were also defeated two out of three games. They then triedto find a team of their class among the day scholars, defeating Kehoe and Kelleher three out of lflve, consequently Smith and Raynor are the pool champions of the college at their age. - T 'Raul anb Ziaanhhall Qliljampions 69 Group uf 3192114 Srbnlars 1 U 9 o H a 6 i f 1 i 9 B O 5 7 Prominent-among, the college organizations are' Sodalities of the Blessed Virgin. Their primary object, the fostering of a practical devotion to the Mother of God and the promotion, by Word and example, of purity of morals and fidelity in the practice of religion, has proven so beneficial an educational influence that there are few, if any, Catholic colleges Without flourishing Sodalities. At Canisius the Boarders and Day Scholars have their separate Sodalities, organized to correspond to the needs of the different classes of students. Thus the Sodality of the Purifi- cation has tvvo divisions 5 one for Senior, the other for Junior Day Scholars. The Senior Boarders are members of the Annunciation Sodality and the Junior Boarders of the Immacu- late Conception.

Collins, 1 Z7 ep 9 Off? -19 QCU ty and senior students of the College-, was as replete w1th.inte1'est as it was 1nstruct.1ve and exhaustive. The clearness and compre- hensiveness of the speaker were universally commented upon. And deservedly so. for a broader and more minute exposition of the subject under discussion could scarce be imagined. He dwelt on law in all its phases. After briefly de-hning what 1S understood by law, and clearly exposing the requisites' com- plementary to its study, he took occasion to- lay weight on the ingstimable advantage one has in its study who has completed 'a thorough college course. From a minute treatment of criminal and civil law, in which he took his audi- ence through the various court procedures, he entered into a detailed treatise on the composition, duties, responsibilities and proceedings of the jury. Ele cleared away all the glare and illusion incident to the profession bv pointing out just what was essential and obligatory in the successful attorney. In closing his address he exho-rted all who might be bent upon entering the profession to do so fearlessly and with fixety of purpose, and to bring with them perseverance, power of application and sound moral principles. 4 Points nn the jllllehinal Brnfessinn ' A long contemplated idea materialized on the afternoon of May 10th, when the Reverend President of the College extended an invitation to the members of the Collegiate Department and also to the first Academicians to listen to an address by John M. Flannery, M. D., on the medical profession. - ' ' V Needless to say, the opportunity was embraced by all the students, a number of the faculty also availed themselves of the chance to hear a talk on this interesting theme. - Dr. Flannery is one of our later graduates, having received his M. A in '02, and we are proud to state that his university career was as remarkably distinguished as his college course, and during the short time that has elapsed since his admission to practice, though he feign would not admit the fact, still as Fr. Rector stated inintroducing the Doctor, he has made his mark, and is already attracting the attention of older practitioners for his skill. Prefacing his remarks by a short eulogy on the grandeur of the medical profession and calling attention to the responsibilities involved, the Doctor proceeded to outlineclearly and deiinitel those ualiiications which he deemed fittin for eve1 as irant to medical honors f Y fl 3 'Y 'P ' a natural inclination and love of the profession he declared to be the sfme qua non for ai' successful career. In addition to this, pluck and perseverance are highly essential requisites, for the path to the goal is a hard tone, beset with many obstac-les, and one on which the laggard will be lost. The thought of lucre, ,said the Doctor, should never iniiuence one in choosing a profession in which Christian charity and not material gain should play an im- portant part. In speaking on the responsibilities of a medical man, Dr.h Flannery seized the chance to say a word on theadvantage accruing to a young physician from a college education. He said that the principles imbibed during a course of solid philosophy will prove most practical in many points of the profession, and with these sound principles to guide him the student of medicine will easily detect the materialistic and atheistic errors that too frequently pervade the lectures of the professor of the modern university, and lead the unwary into dangerous shoals. On this account he urged all who might be contemplating entering upon a course of medicine to pursue, even at a sacrifice, a college course such as our alma mater offers previous to entering the university. The remarks were listened to with keen interest and though the students were not afforded an opportunity of extending their thanks to Fr. Rector for paving the way to this' excellent treat and to Dr. Flannery for sacrificing his valuable time to furnish it, they were withal very grateful. 75 .Z 'H+-. ' X- Ll Glass nf '07 1 p .TEIJR fdlannsnus imjilusupbiral bunietp Judging from the comments heard from various sources concerning the Canisius Philosophical Society, We are led to believe that some explanation in reference to the eligibility to- membership in this Society and a statement of the object of the 'organization Will not be amiss, and hence, knowing that. the ffllest VVe Porgeti' will reach a great number of the old students, We grasp the chance of using it as a medium for clearing up any hazy ideas concerning the C. P. S. Which may be afloat .-,a I , - A movement to organize the -alumni was given impetus in the spring of 1906, when the Rev. Father Miller, S. J., the present Rector, invited 'a number of the B. A. men to adinner at which plans Were discussed and a temporary organization effected. A second meeting Was held on the occasion of the Philosophers' banquet in J une, 19065 the fnatter Was further discussed, but as the close of the school year was so near at hand the adoption of a constitu' tion was deferred to the first meeting of 1907. - H This meeting Was again held in conjunction with the Philosophers' banquet in November, and in' response to the invitations sent to all who have received a -degree from Canisius and' also to all who completed the six-year course at the time When Canisius Was not authorized to grant a degree, a large assembly gathered. A detailed report of this meeting Was ,published in the Christmas edition of the college journal. The question of eligibility to membership was 'then decided and a consti- tution Was drafted. 'lliiderstanding that the point on eligibility is not quite clear to some We shall state it. A11 those who have received the B. A. degree from Canisius are ipso facto members. Those, too, Who have completed the sophomore year at Canisius 77 9 and lnavc- siilismpiciitlv taken llp a course of philcsophy at Eoinjuseiigiiary 01- . . ' u l 7 ' Ullll'l' i11st'it'111'1o11 are considered membeis of the ocie y. 111 Q, lose are cfliuililcf to lllCllllWl'5llll7a whO1 durillg the mme when 3 COHYSG of Phllosophy was not available at Caiiisius, completed the cou1'se then offered. This embraces the years 1872-15745. . . Refpl-1-ind to thc precise object of the Society, the first clause of constitu- tion contains thc aiiswer. lt states: The object of this Society shall be to pro- mote wood fellowship among the graduates of the College, and furthertlie inter- ests of higher Catholic education and to assist the College authorities in making lciiown to thc public and to the students of lowergrades the advantages which accrue from the completion of a college course, leading up to the degree of B. A. ' We hopc that these few points will serve to enlighten the curious on the subiect. D , , ,' , LTllOllQ'll Ollly in its infancy, all indications point to a flourishing organiza- tion, and it is hoped that at the last banquet of the present scholastic. year, June 24, 1907, we may see gathered around the festive board all who can possibly arrange to be present. , The following is the list of those who are eligible to rnernbership in the Canisius Philosophical Society. The addresses are as correct as the limited 1nea11s at our disposal could furnish. We trust this will provee a source of information to many of the Hold boys and be a means of bringing them into Communication. George XV.

Our congratulations, Sam. The graduating class of 1900 has introduced an innovation which is eminently worthy of emulation. They have generously donat.ed all the medals for the prize winners. This move will undoubtedly be highly a.ppreciated and should serve as a precedent for coming years. Heretofore the medals were donated by different individuals, generally old students. Might we be excused for taking this action -of the class' of 1900 as 'an evi- dence of the prosperity to which they have attained, and at the same time tender hearty thanks and sincere congratulations?
