Around the wall of tl'ie gymna.s iflm is . ~uspen(1ec1 by girders and hangers a modern running track fl oored in hard wood and cushion cork.

The gallery is also provided with a motion pi cture b ooth wher ein f ea tures will be shown for e ntertai nm ent during the winter mon th s. Built around the main floor are various rooms and offices in the ft·ont portion, including the lobby which is floored in r ed qu a r ried til e, and which is adjoined by the student club rooms, in which are to be found three modern bo w li ng alleys fully equipped and furnish ed, ftve bil1iard a nd pool tables, as well as a soft drink fount ain and a general store that '"ill carry a complete line of con fec tions and other student suppli es. On th e other fr ont wing of the gymnasium is a hand-ball court with a thirty-foot ceiling. T his room i s floored in maple and walled with smooth concrete and is provided \Vith a gallery for in t erclass han d-ball tournaments. In the rear of the h and ball courts are locker an d shower rooms both for the visitors and the h ome teams, in which are placed thirty showe rs , built of slate slabb in g. There are a lso steaming rooms contained in this portion of the outer structure, as w ell as modern lavatory installatio ns.

Outside of the large playin g f loor, the c hief feature of th e gymnasiu m is a modern natatorium, built to I. 1. A . c reg u lations, 75 feet by 30 feet. Th is pool is tloor ed in white sanitary tile. an d is provided with a valet ray fil ter· ing process , which with the ample amount of sunshine afforded by the sky-lights w ill give at all times the u t· mos t in san itation to the bu:lding, p ool and all its surroundings. I n the base· ment on both · sides of the s>vimming pool are seventy-five f oot rifle mnges which w ill be eq u ipped and lighted in accordance with regulations subscribed to by the better r ifle clu bs of the country.

The appearance of the building is a dded to b y the s t one work which com· plies with t he general plan of Italian Renaissance a r chitecture. One f eature of the gymnasi um Is its ideal location, both tor football a nd baseball. It is so si tuated that it w1ll prove easy of access before and after a ll intercollegiate contests. The a ppearance of the structu re is further enhanced by th e lane of maple s that runs pamllel lo the nor thern v..·a Jl of the building. The stru c lure will appear at its best next spring afte r the sodcli ng, gradin g an d landscapin g have bee n completed. The red and whit e of the building will present a n imposing appearance with the green lawns and a perspective or leafy trees ah·eady tending to add cha 1·m to th e s urroundings.

There were many activities in co nnection -..vith Homecoming Friday, November 5th. but the football game between our Varsity and Lombard College was undoubtedly the most thrilling event on the program. The details of the game will be found elsewhere but more than that, the wonderful fighting spirit that was displayed

by Coach McAllister s men deserves special commendation. In commenting o n the show-ing of our team we are not attempting to detract any from that of the visitors. but we could not allow this occasion to pass ·without paying a warm and sincere tribute to those fightings sons of ia t or -..,rho went down to defeat Frid ay covered with as much if n o t more glory than could have been theirs in victory. \ hat does it n1.atter if they were defeated? There is something finer. something more ennobling a bout some football games than the cold fi gur s on the score board. Oftentimes certain individuals won· de.r what there is about football that gives it such a universal appeal.

If there was such a one at ·the Vator· L ombard game there is no doubt but that he found an answer to his query. There were thrills aplenty but thrills cannot connote the demonstration of those memorable sixty minutes. That was the worthwhile factor in the game-that is what will be remembered long after the date, the day, or the score will have been lost to the memory.

We saw our team take the field with heavy odds against them, we saw them play the game every inch of the way. We care not about the outcome because we know too we1l that:They tackled hard and low, They played the game.

They fought to win and scorned defeat.

They took hard knocks and often gave the samP. And in life we knnw thi! !!arn e they will ••o·•• ·

It wa.<:~ with g r eat pl eas ure that I r ead of your in te nti on to preserve the " open forum" sty le of th e ''Ci ublan" in yo u r n ew publication .

There Is no doul:>t of th e great good t hat w ill come from g iving students an opportunity to voice their opinions publl c ly without fea r of ce nsure. It is with th is view in mind that I am addressing this c riticism of th e stu dents a t St. Viato r Coll ege.

A n yone wit h ''half a n eye'' can see that th e re Is so methin g wrong w ith th e re lation between th e Hl g h Schoo l stu· de n ts a nd th e college m e n . Th e trouble seems to hav e its origin in the fail ure of th e coll ege s tudents to s upo prt t h e Acade m y tea m by apearing at their games. This fact h as been thrust at th e Colelge m e n time and again b ut still the r e does n 't seem to be a n y improvl)m en t. I wonder if there is m ore to t h e problem than has hereto fore bee n cited?

Have the co llege men a g rudge agalnst the younger students?

An d if t h ey have, wh at has cau sed it? These are questions which it a n swered might t hrow some light on the d iffi culty.

Some are of the o pi nio n t hat High School s tu dent s and co ll ege men can never agr ee w hen th ey live as inti· m ately as t hey do at Viator. Yet, since th e Hig h Sc hool is a part of the Coll ege as I it now exists, I think both factions o'l.lgl1t tn m a k e mort:~ than ordlnarv sacrifices in order to pro mote a feelin g of good-fellowship between them. Ther e w ill be some evidence of fri ctio n it is true (there always is when two persons or more m eet) b ut I do not think it is necessary t h at these little mis under· sta ndin gs should r each great dim en·

OUR VIATOR LOYALTW SONG About two years a go the Athle tic Ass ociation of St. Viator Co lleg e realized the n eed of a College Anthe m that would be an expression o f Viator spirit and ideals a nd that w o uld be suitable for use at all t he fun c ti ons of the student body. Th e offi cers o f the Association therefore pos t ed an a nnouncement of a contest open to a ll students for the production of suc h a son. A prize was offered for t he one that would be accepted John H ya n and Jimmy Daln-mple, two of the distinguished students at that time, set earnestly to work and, after much painstaking labor, produced a spirited anthem that completely tilled the bill. Up until the present time the melody of the " Viator Loyalty Song" had never been put into written f orm. The tune was traditional and, as tradition always does, suffered some changes in the usage o! the students.

In o rder to restore the " Viator Loyalty Song" to its former tonal beauty and to guard against any further d etraction from its original form , L eslie J . Roch harmonized the song an d put it in written torm. The f oll owin g are the words of the "VIATOR LOYALTY SONG."

VERY REVEREND PRESIDENT LAUDS DEVOTION AND LOYALTY OF ALUMNI From the temporary rostrum e rected Father O'Mahoney and his able asin the center of the new an d spaciou s sistant, Father O ' Con nor, a new dining hall was improvised in the basement

gymnasium the V e ry R e vere nd Presid e nt eloqu ently vo iced the g t·a titude :J f the f aculty towa rd th e Alumni and fri ends of the institutio n . Hardly had the gym n asium ceased b lazin g on tha t col d wintry mornin g whe n offe rs of s upport and ex pressions of sympath y gave new coura g e and zeal to the saddened hearts of the Viatoria ns. T h Cl devotion of th e Al umnl, Father Rice stated, was typit'ied in the speech 1! one of Viator's dearest friend s delivere d at the New Palm e r Ho u se last February . " Like Zacheus of th e Gospel" said Father Rice , ''he cried in a v o ice shaking with emotion, 'St. Viator's has received the half of my g oods in t h e past and tonight the h a lf of my ea rthl y possessions I a m r eady and willing to sign over now in h e r hour o f greatest need'. It 'vas s u c h expressions as thes e that kept alive the s m o u lde rin g fires of hope in our hearts; that d e t e rminedus to s e t out immedia tely to r eplac'3 our an ti q uated gymn as ium and dining hall wit h the modern u p.to-da t e constructions you s ee h e r e t oda y."

Dis tr essful Days of La-st January " I do not k now whe ther or not you all r ealize just wha t a stupendous task confronted us on the morning of l as t January seventh.

Though we called the building a gy m nasium , nevertheless it conta ine d the kitchen, store- rooms and din i ng- l1alls of both the f ac ulty and

ot. Hoy Hall wh er e m eals 've re ser ved with almost the S.:'l.m e s peed nnd effi ciency of th e o ld r ef e ctory system .

Though the ta s k o f conveying the meals trom the salvaged kitc hen to the improvised dinin g hall for several months was a n arduo u s one. neve rtheless it w a s don e with c h eert'ul alacrity

eleven men who equalled and e\·en excelled the visitors, despite th contradiction in the final score.

Da lr),nple Deadl)'.

Never before in the history o! local _gt·it.hron gamPS has BUCh deadly accuracy in passing been dJsplayed as thEexhibition given by Dalrymple and his receivers. Short passes, long 11asses, delayed passes, everything that the aer· ial game permits was executed w-ith an accuracy that has never been excelled In the first half of the game a lJPrfect score was registered; Mels started by taking a long toss !rom Dalrymple, and Delaney helped to make up certain devastating penalties with the per:l'ect reception of four out o! tour passes.

Lombard was indeed bewildered, and bewilderment gave way to a complete destruction of morale ,.,.hen Dalrymple with the accuracy o! a marksman lifted the oval from placement t'or three points, the first score St. Viator has ever regis tered again st Lombard.

After Vince Jackson had taken the ball alter a baffling double pass on his yard line and had cantered S2 yards down the sloppy field he wa::; downed by the tleet Clothier on St. Mary's three yard line and there ended the first and only threa t made by St. Viator Academy in its annual game with St. Mary's High Sc_h ool of Bloom lngton last Thursday. The old punch seemed to be gone from the local lin ~.

The back!ield seldom found time to get off a decent run and a fter Jackson had placed the ball on the three yard marker there wasn't enough pep in the gang to gain those three yards,although they had four perfectly good downs to do it in. St. Viator had to play this game minu s the services of their star quarter Singler, and the loss of this heady littl e ge ne ral was evident throughout the fray.

St. Mary's, besides having the advanrage of playing o n t h eir own field were smarting under a defeat of a week previous an d played desperate football~ especially did they show defensiv~ power.

Their touchdown was scored late tn· the first period a ft er Middleton of St. Mary's had intercepted one of Daly's passes on the St. Viato1· 22 yard line.

Clothier. the mainstay of the Bloomington team entered the game at this time and it ·w as only a.fter St. Mary's had wasted three downs that they m anaged to get a pass safely over th e goal line and here the scoring for the day ended.

This makes the seri es ot football games betwee n St. Mary's and St. V iator Academy an even break. Last year the game terminated in a sco rel ess tie.

Year be :l'ore last St. Viato r won 20-0.

What will the o u tcome be next yea.r?

Great Backfi eld.

In Coulter, Joube rg, Mosher and Sandberg, Coach Bell has a truly r emarka bl e backfi e ld. And added to this gr eat asset he had a highly geared, smoot hly runn ing, wa ll of Interference that was almost impossib le to stop.

Viator's game s utTers large ly because or the lack or such a fast moving wall ot in terference. Dalrymple Is o:l'ten times fo r ced to m ake his way around the e n d, or up the field practically ahead o! his t eammates, but his great c hange of pace, and his body weaving help t o overcome this handicap ..

With the score of 3 to 0 agaJ nst them, these Lombard1an s came o ut in the second half. with the single intentio n o! pulverizing the opposition. But when they s m ashed thro~gh they found highly tempered steel instead ot the e xpected fl es h and blood, and on ly the s upe r weight and rugged bu lk and unceasing pou n ding of Sandbe1·g . Cou lter and Hess were r esp onsibl e for the c han ge in t h e fina l res ult. It see m ed nothing huma n could sta nd under the terrifi c pounding direc ted at t h e Viator det ense, yet Viator held; Viator held like the "Wall of Brass" that f eat ured the Bradley game; and It is to the everlasting c redit of McAIU ster a nd the individual players themselves !o1· the sp len did condition that made suc h a lmost super human achievements possible. A series ot' successful line pl110ges topped off b y an old fashioned cross passing to Coulter p ut the ba ll o n Vlators 3-yard line.

Viator h eld twice but Mosher cras hed over by th e prove rbia l hair and Murphy kicked the goal a ft er touc hdown. The Scor e registered 7 to 3 fa vorl ng Lombard.

Dalrymple's passing was broug ht Into 1.1ll'l,Y; a steudy m cu-ch up the Oelr.l marred twice by sevete penalties, and then a delayed 01· m ixed torwa 1·d t hat went i nto the arms or "Soap" May and turned th e tide ot bat tl e once mo1·e, a nd Viator 's hopes r each ed new he ights when t h e scor e board s howed that the Hoosier had crossed th e Lombard goa l line ! or th e first tou c hd own In t he hi s tory of a thletic r elations with St. Viator.

Pandemonium broke loose; pro fessors lo!H the dignity o r the pedagogue; students were hugging and pushing and ~creaming; even th e large representation or the fnlr sex unloosed the cords ot restraint and swelled the vo lume that went up from two thousand throats. The sco,- s tood 9 to 7 and th a t margin looked lnsut·rnountable.

There was, however, a lways the !ear of the dead ly Murphy, whose toe has become famo us In th las t !o ur years.

A He ld goa l would g ive the Lombard boys juat e nough mn ,·gln o! victory to register lh c c redit side o! the ledge r Viator braced ngnlnst it.

Lombard Scol·cs.

There was ftghtlng and tugging as was never seen before. Gains made by on"' side were Immediate ly oftset by Kll.lns o r th e other. Viator was det'ending th e small advu.ntngc with super lative courage: and Lombard wns fighting

the secondary defens e which hacl been drawn close to plug u p th e much and sore ly tried line. Sandberg crossed over !or the last touch down on a 35-yard run

style the wounds of defeat would not Bede's topped him a few pounds more.

have been so bitter, nor so difficult to heal. They were bent on desu·uction and they certainly accomplished their mission. It ·was our thit'd trimminr:. and our casualty list sort of foretol-d the ultimate outcome. for it is a difti: cult if not impossible feat to take youngsters out of plaster casts and ofr crutches a nd send them into a football game and expect them to win. Anrl such was. comparatively speaking. the condition of the Barrett Boys wh~;1 they took the field against St. Bede.

Jackson was just about ready, tho another week would have healed him up entirely; young Sullivan needed another week; several men in the forward wall were not in the pink-but they pleaded with the coach and shammed their true condition. Result was not only the loss of several men for that game. but the elimination for the season o f Single!-. the battering of Cy Daley. and a field of wrecks that practically exhausted the e n Ure squad in the matter of r ep laco:::-

and when the casualties begnn to come in they came in great numbers. It is to the great credit of Captain Sllntz and his gang that th ey remained In so long and held the score to two touchdowns. Daley did everything that n C'>"ood offensive man co uld be expected t'o do and Singler. while he was in. was a' team in himself on the defensive.

Burns of St. Bede's was th e outstanding performer. He carried the ball in great style. and his ability to leap away or over a tackle was as neat a performance as has been seen on the local field this year. He certainly will be among football's Great when he reaches the University grade or scholastic endeavor.

The sport writers will feast on the caption possibilities such as "Burns Burns His Vlay Thru All Opposition."

The Viator Academy wishes h im mu ch success a nd complete immunity frorn accident. Burns, Matthews. Daley and Singler-What a Backfield!

With Columbia scheduled for Armistice Day at Dubuque, Valparaiso at the city of the same name on the 20th. and DePaul at Chicago o n Thanksgiving Day, St. Viator swings into the tail end of its schedule prepared for a glorious and triumphant windup. Despite the fact that the great showing of the team against Lombard last Friday raised the optimism of the Viatorians to a very high pitch. Coach MeAllister is !ully conscious that he is meeting a team next ThUI-sday that is ::1.3 dangerous as a handful or high tension wires.

Columbia has taken the last four games with quite a margin, and the momentum of such a string ot victories may be the urge that will mah:o an otherwise tame Columbia t eam n. fighting squad of wildcats.

I n McAleer, Columbia's right halfback, St. Viator will have a busy day; this lad ski r ts the ends, throws forwards, and s lip s t hrough the lin e with tantalizing s u ccess. Marcero is their plunging fullback w ho emulates t h e great Sandberg we saw performing a Ia. Five l'"ards McCarthy.

Otherwis~ thi n gs are mu c h the same as other I years wit h the Co lu mbia---:-and Via~or always had an uppe r hand m the pomt of. tale nt. Columbia, so it is reported.

252 South East Ave. has a skillful overhead game. ~ew KANKAKEE, ILL. interceptions have been made agamst them in the last four games. but :J.S WHERE SOCIETY BRAND CLOTHES ARE SOLD many passes. if not m ore, have been grounded as have been complet ed. Of co urse, St. Viator just at this point in _ _ __ the season is at its greatest degree o f ---------~----------·----­ eft'iciency, and there is eve r y re~son _to .,' look forw a rd t o good news burmn g 1ts 1 way over the Ion ~ distance when DuT elephon e \ Vabash 3875 bu q ue calls St. V Iator Coll ege.
