Forty THE XAVERIA'N NEWS Sophomore Bowling Team Much interest was displayed this past season by the A. B. students in their Bowling Alleys. The alleys were opened early in the month oerovem- ber. Preliminary games were rolled off to ascertain the strength of each team and to determine the handicaps to be given in the inter-class tourney. The arranging of hancli- capps was a clithcult matter, as the efficiency of the teams increased so rapidly that the handicaps was almost at all times an uncertainty. However, the matter was finally ad justed, and it was decided that the-Sophomores should scratch, because of their great superiority over the other teams. This arrangement then left the other three teams handicapped to the extent of 75 per cent tof Sophomores' superiority. Prior to the playing off of the tournament the teams did a great deal of practicing. especially the Freshmen, who Were new to the alleys, and in consequence they made a very good showing. When the gong sounded, the Sophs. true to their old form. sprang into the lead and were never . for one moment running anywhere but first. Their closest contenders were the Freshmen. who caused them quite a little bit of worry. This has been the second season in which the present Sophomores have annexed the trophy. and it has been rumored that they expect to win two more, with which to drink their wine at their graduating banquet. The Sophomores lost a valuable man in Joe King, who was at all times considered the Iron Mauv-of the team. Joe was always cool, giving encouragement to his teammates and: keeiaing the morale keyed to a high pitch. In losing one'nian they foundianother, Thomas Ball. who has proven his ability in more than one instance as a bowler. Others who have contributed their bit to the well-oiled Sophomore machine are Leonard Vohberbrink. Edward Dorr, Warren Rush and Richard Weiskettle. These men also compriSe the team representing Liberal Arts. with the addition of' Herb Lammers, from Freshman. and Harry Moore and' George Vollman, as substitutes, also from F reshman. The last .tourney of the year was helcl several weeks before Easter. This was an individual tourney of sixteen entrants from all classes. Richard Weiskettle was acclaimed champion by his victory over Warren Rush in the finals. Here again Sophomore superiority asserted itself by having? two of her class finish in the money. Bowling then began to lag a little, so the curtain was rung down several days before Easter. It will be raised again sometime in October.

Forty-two th. REV. GEORGE R. KISTER. S. 1.. A. M. Chancellor, Board of Trustees Dean. College of Liberal Arts and Science. Dean. Extension Department I The period of Father Kister's stay at St. Xavier Col- lege will always be a pleasant memory. All the students will look back and remember him as a man who was a boy among the boys. Very seldom you find a Dean who cultiv'ates the liking of an entire studentsbody. You never find at St. Xavier a student who has anything but praise for Father Kister. Every student speaks well of him, and always says he re- ceived a square deal from F ather Kister. In his office he has always been courteous and pleasant, willing to help everyone in any difficulty. and forever try- ing to aid the students in whatever trouble they might have. Outside of school he is one of the fellows. The dig- nity of a Dean is put aside, and at once he is one of the boys That is what the students like. and that is what-has made F ather Kister a lasting friend of each and every stu- dent of the College. Father Kister has been one of the prime figures in mak- ing St. Xavier what it is today. He will always be known as a leadeg in the movement which, in the last five years, has made St. Xavier College. THE XAVERIAN NEWS REV. HUBERT F. BROCKMAN. S. L. A. M. Secretary, Board of Trustees , Regent School of Sociology Principal of High School School of Law School of Commerce In his capacities as Regent of the School of Commerce and Sociology and the College of Lawt and as Principal of High School. Reverend Hubert F Brockman. S. Juihas completed his first year's administration with a record that speaks for itself. The high standards of St. Xavier have been sustained. and no opportunity for the further development was allowed to slip by. Despite the many duties devolving upon; him as chief executive of the three departments of St. Xavier, he is never too busy to keep in personal touch with the activities of the student body and the Alumnieof which latter he is a member and a devoted supporter. It is only' natural, therefore, that his efforts should be accompanied .by elose application and a marked zeal. This spirit of loyalty and his executive ability, combined with the highest type of fair- minded judgment, have won for him the admiration and respect of all.
