THURSDAY 3 .The deacons were up bright and early today shin- ing their hiking shoes in preparation for their traditional trip to the Ridge Zebby attired in white knickers, presented a what-the-well-dressed-man-will-wear'' appearance, while Ben Mol1net carried a pedometer, probably to convince himself that the Ridge 1S not qulte as far away as Brooklyn FRIDAY, 4. Interest in the Mushball League is ebbing. Ku kie's team animated by the never-say-die spirit' of its optimistic leader, still has hopes of winning a game. SUNDAY, 6. At the regular meeting of the St. Thomas Literary and Homiletic Society, the members were informed 'of the discon- tinuance of Kuhn's Farm Day. Mr. Wank, though sorely dis- appointed, is nevertheless determined to keep up tradition and will eat his hot-dogs on the Cherry Path hereafter. - TUESDAY, 8. Dugan was sorry that he could I f .

The first copy of Volume . 1 X of the Seminarfists' Symposium arrived. V The seminarians expressed their satisfaction with the book and extended their congrat- .. ' ulations to the staff.

The officers of the Mission Society left for Pitts- I 1 . burgh this morning to attend the Annual Conference Rally. V MONDAY, 14. Dark clouds are being blown into the lives of the ' . seminarians these days by the ill-winds of the final tests. But as Steve Schneider so poetically asserts, The ,Sun will shine again . whenthe fair breezes of vacation have blown the clouds away. 1 WEDNESDAY, 16. The philosophers were granted a holiday to- , day after the first class in honor of the Rev. Prefect's Patron, St. 1 l John Nepomucene.

ART DIARY V APRIL 1928 A THURSDAY 12 Refreshed in mind and body after the Easter vacation the seminarians returned today for the final term of the school year ,g TUESDAY, 17. The Mushball League was duly inaugurated with impressive ceremonies. Our own justice of the Peace, Hon. Mr. Altany threw out the first ball, starting the athletes on what is expected to be a closely-contested campaign. Captain Kukie ' modestly predicts victory for his boys. FR1DAY, 20. An unusual occurrence attracted the attention of the seminarians this afternoon ' when a forest fire- broke out on the Ridge. An excellent view was afforded those fortunate ones living on the south side of the Seminary building thereby furnishing them an afternoon's enter- tainment Even Lucas was kept from his books SATURDAY 21. In addition to the usual movie tonight, a new feature was introduced by the Col legians in the form of a radio-broadcasting pro- gram. This novel idea proved very entertaining even though it was not a real broadcasting apparatus as Nast thought. WEDNESDAY 25. Our venerable friend Mike Miller, the grave- digger of St Vincent s passed away today. We fear the cemetery will not seem the same with Mike's departure. May he sleep the sleep of the Just. MAY, 1928 WFDNESDAY 2. The fact that the opposition was directed by a former member of their team had little or no influence upon Captain Cherdinl and his Varsity athletes today in presenting Father Joyce s nine from Charleroi, with defeat. We feel sure that Father Joyce did not expect such harsh treatment from his former playmates 'm :II- :llllll EIII -1 I ll as '1 1 .
