Month of November.
Before many days will have pass
ed, the students of st. Stanislaus
College will be scattered out over
the surrounding country, enjoying
the brief breathing spell which is al
ways partaken of before entering
upon the final stretch. The holi
days, which start Tuesday, December
% and end January 5th, give the
boys two full weeks in which to re-
cuperate from the nervous strain
to which they have been subject dur
ing the past three or four months.
The boys are finding it a pretty
tough proposition to keep their
minds wholly on their studies. AL
though up to the present writing there
hasn't been any cause to kick, as ev-
eryone seems to have taken an inter-
est in his work and we have heard
very few, if any, complaints. On
the contrary, if talk will accomplish
anything, all hands point to an in
creased attendance after Christmas,
and we think that some of the fell
lows building chicken coops over be-
yond the coal pile, will better look
for themselves first.
Curtain Falls on Football Season.
Last Thursday the curtain fell on
the most remarkable foot ball sea-
son the college has ever had. The
team went through the season with
out defeat, though there were times
when some thought the end was near
but no one spoke his thoughts, and
the season was served up in fine
style. The last game was played
without the use of boats, though
they would not have been out of
place; but the weather was very ap-
propriate for one certain member of
the team, for he does not feel at
home when out Of the water. The
first part of the day looked very pro-
missing and nobody was worried, but
old man Pluvius could no longer con-
ceal his sorrow for poor grass
and flowers and he let fall his
briny tears in torrents. After most
elaborate dinner tha yers dressed
quickly in order to start the game. IN
spite of the rain a large crowd wit
messed the slaughter and S. S. C. got
away with $50 victory, while the
Sailors were glad to get away with
what they could.
The absence of our coach, Mr.. Fos-
ter Commagere, who was sick, slight
ly handicapped the team, but they
only fought the harder to bring VIC
tory to the door of him who has SO
CALAMITY stuck by his little team.
1t was announced by Mr.. Comma
gere, at a recent meeting of the team
members, that the banquet would be
given on or about the 18th of Dec
ember. This was quite blow to some
of the more timid ones and we have a
faint idea that these same fellows,
after school In the evening are hiding
in some secluded corner practicing
the Cicero stuff in order to get by on
the said occasion.
Finis foot ball.
Enter basket ball.
The prospects of a championship
basket ball team are greater than
ever before. Almost the whole of last
year's team is back. Their names fol-
low: Andrew Higgins, John Voelkel,
William Stack, Milton Philips and
Jno. Stafford, who has been recently
chosen. These and a few. more will
be chosen some time during the week
complete the roster A new league
has also been formed in order to un-
cover some new material. The cap
tains of the teams are as follows !:
Medium, Songy, Healey, Manning,
Robertson, Wilbert, Rosenblath and
Cerniglia.
Sodality to Receive New Members.
On November 4th the officers OF
the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin
held a meeting, which lasted half
an hour. During that time few i'm
portant topics were discussed, among
which was the question of receiving
lew boys. The decision finally rest
ed on December 9Th as the most ap-
oropriate date, being the feast of
The Immaculate Conception. This
date is also q holiday, and it may
mean picture show for some boys.
But the graduates positively decline
to appear before the President and
request that they be allowed to go.
That's settled.
