CUl.C LATION Olt.PA.RTMENT

The near approach of the Christmas vacation carries with it the memory of those memorable events that each y ar in the past have ma rked this season, namely, the Lim honor d repetition of the flagrushes. At this time the Freshm en during the night or early morning place atop the flagsta ff their banner which might as well be a r ed cloth wav d before a bull; its effects on the upperclassm n are v ry much similar. The day chosen is usually that of th e Feast of th e Immaculate Conception, because of th conge tha t day. Usually before Ma s t here a re a few prelimin a ry cuffle , but after it the scene re embles nothing o much as a tudent riot which it soon becomes.

There is mu h good sport in the whole affair, and it tries lhe temper of the iron in the gentlemen who take part in it. But the affair has so metimes resulted in ni.ther serious injuries, threats to life and limb, \Yhich, in the lattei· case. \Yer reali zed last year. The students should be cnre(ul to maintain the proper distinction between sport and actual knock-do\\'n-and-dragout bitterness to which it may easily descend. nd it is to be hoped that the wc:1ther continues to grow \\·a rmer fo r the good of all eon rned.

EDWARD HUNT IS HONORARY CAPTAIN

R . E. HOO VER Edward Hunt, Chi cago, guard on th e 1932 foot ba ll team was selec t ed honorary cap t a in of th e squad for th e season jus t c losed at a m ee ting o f the team held on last Monday.

Ed, a Sen ior, h as bee n a reg ular on th e var s ity s in ce hi s F res hman year.

Comi ng to Viator with quite a r ep utE\tion as a prep s tar with D e La Salle High, Ed won hi s place on th e va rsity unde r th e critical eyes of Sam McAllis t e r by his dogged perserve r en ce, continua l fi g ht to the lus t whi s tl e, a nd hi s dete rmination to succeed.

Hunt' s selec tion as H onor ary Captain is Indicative of th e h igh esteem In which he is held by hi s t eam mates and fellow s tudents. On th e field he was always willing t o help a young s t er with hi s exp eri ence, and h.i 3 room in Roy Hall is ever open to any s tudent seeking help on a History problem o r dropping in for a sociable cigar ette.

The r e was none of the long running as was s hO\.VD in the Valparaiso game nor w as there the offe nsive line wor k as evidenced in th e Illinois College fray.

Both teams at the o u tse t of the game s tarted right in on line plunging and end running . The Miners had the advantage in the plunging on account of the weigh t of their line, which outweighed the Irish fonvard wall fifteen pounds to a man.

The Irish utilized thei r speed by their u sual use of sweeplng end runs. They wer e able to rip through the Miners f ront w all defense but in every att empt to score th ey we r e stopped by th e brillant work of the secondary defense. Twice in the first half the , Irish were down to Missourians goal but each tim e they lost the ball on downs. Again in the last
