SATURDAY, 17. The Varsity won a 12-7 victory over the West Virginia Freshmen. It is rumored that the Reverend Prefect had a rather difficult time retaining his seat during the game. SUNDAY, 18. Paul Ethics Cain, bedecked in a blue shirt adorned with spectacles, and carrying a volume of Father john Ryan under his left arm, made an imposing appearance as he en- tered the clubroom. Bob Murphy was there to welcome him. MONDAY, 19. Keown today mistook Gilbert for Bill Brecker and requested a hair-cut. Tom, always ready to oblige, readily consented and set to work. The mowing that resulted was the topic of conversation for several days following. Buechel says that he has seen worse hair-cuts but that he can not recall just where. WEDNESDAY, 21. Cyril Mihalsky underwent an operation for appendicitis at the St. Francis Hospital this morning. We sincere- ly hope that speedy recovery will in the near future, return Cyril to our midst. THURSDAY 22 Mr. Gooley entertaining the premonition that Father Nepomucene was to visit him today, hastily set to work cleaning his room, after weeks of neglect. Imagine Joe's dis- appointment when the Reverend Prefect failed to make an appearance!

Crowe and Edwards, and the players are to be congratulated on their wonderful showing. Paul Giegerich L 114311 :nnmnnm :llli S.-.2 'lmn mn n y . . ' 1 Elllllli 2 n I I
