SENIGRS Good Gridiron Season The football team had a better-than expect- ed year, with 6 wins, one tie, and one loss. The wins were over Newton, Dodge City, Ellis, Plainville, Goodland and our old grid enemy, Hays Hi. The tie was with Abilene and one of the best games the Cadets played, with both teams being evenly matched. The loss was with Hutchinson. Even though the Cadets lost, a great deal of credit was given to the Cadets for their fine defense and offensive play. As We go to press, fit is only Decemberl, we find there are many events which cannot be reported, since they are all in the future. The basketball team took their first two games and give the impression that they are going places this year. The boxers split in two matches with Russell. The rifle team has been re-organized but to date has not shot any matches. One innovation this year wlas the new uni- forms for the Military Science students: a shade of green similar to the regular Army officers' uniform. When the unit had been outfitted, they ROBERT TOEPFER presented a striking and very neat appearance. ROBERT TOEPFER ............... Hays, Ks. Crack Platoon: Glee Club: Yearbook: Journal: Football.

SE ICR qluarters in the Recreation Center. Not that any- t ing but sweet music lssued from the many in- struments: it was Just that the rhythmic-beat of a drum or the sweet wail of a clarinet Just did not mix smoothly with chemical formulae or the parts of speech. And the new gun racks elim- inated much noise several times a week-with the new system the soldiers filed in one door, past the gun racks, and out the other door: no muss, no fuss, no bull-rings as had happened formerly. New Posts in Military What griped many a soul was the Court Martial setup. It was bad enough when we had to march the. bull-ring for infractions of the regulations: it was bad enough to face Fr. Paulinus and try to get across an excuse, but to stand court martial, to pay fines, brother, ghvatihurt where it hurts most: in the pocket- oo . U The institution of the Public Information Of- fice should go a long way towards making the school better known. Whenever a student's name appeared in the school pamper, or when- ever he 'or one of the faculty 1d something outstanding, a copy of the story was sent to his hometown newspaper. Since our boys come from some 20 states, this gives much free publicity to the school. CHARLES SHIPLEY ......... Independence, Ks.

SENICR Journalism Class Edits Publications D A new feature of the curriculum was the nitroduction of J ournalxsm. Heretofore the Kub- lication of the Cadet Journal and ON PAR DE was strictly! an egctra-currlcular activity. The burden of t e publxcatlon, including the writing, edlting, and layout fell upon the faculty advisor. Under the present system, the schoo publica- tlons are prepared as part of the Journallsm classwork. Newsstorxes and features were pre- pared byithe class and then Worked over as a class progect. Comments on the results were highly complimentary. lt ls Farewell, Alma Mater And now it is farewell to our Alma Mater. And the school has indeed been a loving Mother to us all. When we look back now and realize what greenhorns we all were, how rough and unpollished, we wonder that the school has put up w1th us all this tlme. While we.may not be the most fmlshed and polished specunens. in the world, we feel that we have gained inestlmably from attending St. J osegh's --we have received a training that cannot e found elsewhere. To our Alma Mater, then, we give our sincerest JOHN YOUNGER thanks, and in parting say: May God bless you. ' Robert Toepfer. Norman Staab. JOHN YOUNGER ..... . . Catherine, Ks.
