ST. FRANCIS CYO
IN FINAL DEBATE
Large Delegation From
Hill to Hear Arguments
Tomorrow Night
Washington Hill

Wednesday evening at Hotel Elton
st. Francis G. Y. o. debating team
will meet st. Margaret,s team for
the finals in the contest for SUI
premacy, and all residents of the
Hill are in back of their representa-
tives. The youngsters have done a
very creditable job, even though one
of their star performers is now in
the armed forces of our country,
Ralph Phelan, leaving George Phe-
Ian holding up the masculine side
of the workers. Miss Nancy Cam
pion and Eileen Fitzpatrick are the
young ladies competing. The ques-
ton to be talked on this evening is
Should the United States have an
Alliance with Russia as part of a
postwar Program" with the St.
Francis having the negative side of
the question. We are sure our team
will bring home the bacon and
we hope large delegation from the
Hill will be on hand to give them
the applause they deserve.
Rev. James Sullivan is in charge
of st. Francis C. Y. o.
The article in last nights Demo-
crat from one of the employees of
the Waterbury Clock with reference
to the gasoline which residents of
Canada are able to get and make
use of, was read with much inter-
est by the residents of Washington
Hill, and the greater majority agree
with the contributor of this article,
that there is something lacking,
when some people have the fuel
necessary to run their cars and
others have to leave the cars in the
garage. Don't believe there is any
one who isn't willing to do his or
her share for the war effort. If it is
all shared by everyone alike. But
perhaps this condition can be clear
ed up in short time. We hope so
anyhow.
Friday is the first Friday of July
and Masses at st. Francis will be at
$50, $50 and 7:30. Confessions will
be heard at 4 o'clock in the after
noon and at 7:3O in the evening.
