Spencer and Connor conscientiously obeying orders from the Terrible Tornado awoke the deacons at live o' clock this morning, notwithstanding the fact that the Sunday schedule prevailed for the day FRIDAY 2 All Souls Day. A Solemn High Mass in the Arch- abbey Church was followed by procession to the cemetery where services were conducted by the Rt. Rev. Archabbot and prayers offered up for the repose of the Poor Souls. Requiescant in Pace! SATURDAY, 3. The hinges on the door leading to the Rev Prefect's office were sadly in need of repair today after constant use by an apparently unending line of seminarians seeking permission to the football game in town. Scotty McCormick donned knickers with the sole intention, it is believed, of being admitted to the game at half-price. SUNDAY, 4. Several seminarians attended the First Solemn High Mass of the Reverend William Donnerbauer, who was ordained to the Holy Priesthood the previous Sunday. The Symposium takes this opportunity to wish the young Levite an abundance of God's graces in His Sacred ministry MONDAY 5 Father Rocco Maturo again honored us by his presence His rare sense of humor found an outlet in several in- teresting stories which helped pass a pleasant hour. We anxiously look forward to Father Maturo's next visit. Tradition was totally d1sregarded, for, beginning this evening and all through this month, night prayers are to follow imme- diately after the Miserere All approved of the change, for, as the Reverend Prefect stated, more time will thereby be had for study or sleep as the case may be.

The evening banquet satiated the palates of all after a day of considerable activity. THURSDAY, 25. Kuhn's Farm Day dawned cloudy and chilly inducing a brisk walk to the improvised picnic grounds. The hike, no doubt, influenced the appetites of the seminarians for the hot dogs and beans, served only as Mr. Foley and his staff could serve them, were eaten with relish. After the meal the Committee were accorded three rousing cheers in apprecia- tion of their success as caterers.
