WATSON ELECTED TO PRESIDENCY OF COLLEGE CLUB

COMPLETE PROGRAM FOR RECEPTION OF RT. REV. B.J. SHEIL

Program of Events, June 4th and 5th Monday, June 4th

Brown Elected Vice-President; Long a nd Clothier, Officers Mr. Jarlath (Ja y ) Watson, of Odell, Illinois, was elected Pres ident of the College Club by a very decided majority on Thursday, May 17. In choosing Mr. Wats on to act as their chief executive for t he year 19281929, the members of the Club picked a man who is not only quite capable of handling the difficult task but is a lso sure to lead the Cl ub through a most successful year. Mr. Watson has been one of the mos t active member s of th e College Club during the past two year s and t his fact alone offers a ss uran ce that he will run the Club in a 'ne p lus ultra' fashion. During the past two years, he has served as member of th e Advisory Board, and during the past year has acted as chairman of t he Social Committee. The tine work that he h as done in t he latter capacity has won the admiration of t he stud ent body. During the past year, he likewise acted a s vice-pres ident of the Sophomore cla ss and will hold a si milar chair in the Bergin Debating Society next year. The student body can certain ly f eel that th eir choice has been excepti ona ll y good. James Brown experi enced difficu lty in winning th e office of Vice-President over Eddi e Campbell and Byr on Evard. The f act , howeve r, that he def eated these two popular men wou ld indicat e that he is entirely ti t to serve in s uc h an office. Jim is one of the most w illing rnen on t he campus and no doubt will prove a big aid to President Watson . It was to the joy of man y that Steve Long won the position of Secr etary. Steve is stead y and r eliable and will find nc difficu lty in fulfi lli ng the duties thai the office of Secretar y dema nd of him. The popu la r choice f or Trea s urer was Kenneth Clothier. The decisive manner in which Ken won over s uch able fin ancier s as Meis a nd Tucker s hows th a t the Clu b w a s not hesita nt in placin g its pecuni a r y fund in hi s hands. P erh a ps Ken's popularity will enabl e him to bol st er up a rather bedrag g led ba nk book. Mr. Allen James Nolan, r etirin g president of t he Club , was a lrn ost una nimousl y chosen as Deleg a t e-at-large to th e College Coun cil. Thoug h th e offi ce it self is not fu nctio nal, in a s m uch a s it was dissolved by Coll ege au thorit ies two yea r s back, it was placed on the lis t to g ive evidence of t li t> s tu dent s' wis h to r egai n t he pr ivileg e that was once accorded t hem. Ins ta llation ce remoni es wer e held on Wednesday, May 23 . Presiden t Nola n deli vered t he ma in depa rt ure speech and concl ud ed with the wis h t hat his successor, Mr. W a ts on, woul d enjoy a hi g hl y s uccessf ul year and t hat he wo ul d r eceive t he hea r ty cooperation of every me mber. The other r etiring officer s, likewise, coinm ended the Club on t heir wise selecti on of new offi cers a nd added t he hope t hat the lu b would continue to make t he progress t hat it has done in the past. Nomi na tions fo r the various offices wer e in order a t the mee ting of 'l ay 14.

THE VIATORIAN

Anderhub Wins IAltar Boys H o!d . Academy Tennis Annual P1c!""c . Championship Despite R am After having easily disposed of Bob McGoorty, Rodiguez, and Joe Degnan in the first three rounds of the tennis tournament, Anderhub won the championship by defeating his room-mate, Cody, in the finals, 6-5 and 6-0. Charley had quite a bit of trouble pulling the first set out of the fire, but he was on top of hi s opponent for the entire second set. Last year he was runner-up to Steve G3rneau, '27, in the annual tournament, and his victory in this year's meet was expected by most of the Academy students. I n the semi-final matches, Cody disposed of Gallagher, and Anderhub defeated Rodriguez. Cody started off the tournament last Monday by beating Brinn in straight but hard fought sets, 6-3 and 6-2. Following this match was the one between Bud Doyle and Conroy. Conroy appeared to have the better of the going until near the close of the first set, when the red-head rallied to win it 7-5, and the succeeding one, 6-1. McGoorty managed to defeat Hesse but only after one of the hardest fought battles of the tournament. The game in which Gallagher defeated Rice was marked by the singular fact that the second set went to 12-10 before the latter won out. In the other first round matches, Comina outclassed Graham, Anderhub conquered little Joe Degnan, McKeown won from Gendron Legris, and Rodrigu ez gained the decision over Jack Casey. In the second round, Cody went into the fina ls of the upp er bracket by beating Doyle, 7-5 and 6-0, and Gallagher won the right to oppose him by downing Comina. Rodriguez entered the final s of the lower bracket by disposing of Harry McKeown in two tought sets, 7-5 and 7-5. Anderhub was the only other player to reach the third round. He had to whip Bob McGoorty to do so, but Andy set about his work from the opening serve, and soon piled up an 4nsurmountable lead. The one-sidedness of the scores in this match s urprised many of those who had picked

Although the rain came down in torrents on tha.t morning of May 16th, and although it continued to pour down afresh at regular intervals throughout the day, nevertheless the Altar bo ys held their schedu led picnic and, in the words of many a rural r eporter, "A good tirne was had by all." The boys did not have the good fortune to be carried to the picn ic grounds in the convent truck, for that mute witness of many a Viator picnic was undergoing r epairs. However, all the m embers were on hand by eleven o'clock, and a ball game was sta rted immediately. They were just beginning to wax enthusiastic over the tightn ess of the score when some observant lad shouted that dinn er was ready. Quite natura ll y, the field was quickly deserted. The refresh ments at dinner and s upper cons isted of ham and cheese sandwiches , coffee, pickles, ice cream, several different kinds of pie, orange pop, cookies, and candy. A ball game , and several races took up the greater part of the afternoon. Frankie Perino did some peculiar manipulations with the ball in the seventh inning and he is still convinced, in spite of all adverse testimony, that he executed a triple play unassisted. The Society members reluctantly left the picnic grounds shortly after supper, and wended their way College-,vard along t he rocky Bourbonnais road.

CJampus fB riefs \\'e were overjoyed to hear that th copious downpour of last week end was a beneficent aid to the agric-ulturalists in this \-'icinity. It certainly was not a factor in the succe~:s of our social and athletic aetivitie~. It seems too bad that something on the order of hip boots and slickers could not be added to the ball player's equipment in these rainy climes. Anything to counteract the disappointing- results of these alluvial dispersions.

I'm Coming ! I'm Coming! The heading of this column might well be ca ll ed the graduates' nat iono l anthe m.

The game is sa id to ha ve been the best a nd closest that was played on t he Noire Dame fi e ld t hi s seaso n. The Viator Club enter ed th e fie ld with a patched lin e- up 1 due to th e abse nce of Lou Phillips who was injur ed in the Ja ckso nville tuss le. I n s pite of th is handi cap the boys threw quite a scare into the Not re Dame camp. In th e fir st inn ing, after .Evard was reti red, Todd hit to cente r for a s ingle.

Academics TWin From St. Viator Parish Some s even or eight months ago, when two large univers it ies of the Bam e name were about to engage each other in a footba ll game, the reporter for t he Chi cago Tribune remarked that it was probably the fi rst time two schoo ls carrying the s ame tit le ha d ever been sch eduled to meet. However, just las t week, a nother s uch meeti ng took place, w hen the S t . Viator P a ri sh t eam of Chi cago played against ou r own Academic sq uad. We do not recall t he score of th e enco unter first m ent ioned, but it could scar cely have close r t ha n th e 3-2 co unt of t he last named game. Fortunate ly, the Acs wer e on the long en d of the score, but they were not a head a ll throughout the game. F a r from i t, for the pa ri sh team forged in to th e lead in th e fou rth inning and r ema ined in that pos ition unt il the Acs sco red tw ice in t he last session on a, wild peg by their op-

The Chicago outfit d isplayed their best brand of ball in every stage of t h e t ussle-the brand t hat has made them one of the leading pennant co ntenders in the Chicago P aroc hi a l League r ace, a nd t hey ma nage d to kee p Brother H arbauer's cr ew gu essing.

No do ubt th eir loyal s upport was la rgely r es pons ibl e for the good s howing of th eir boys. Th e Acs contin ued t heir wi nnin g str ea k by taking a 9-7 battle fro m

their traditional rivals, the vill age r s. Thi s game was played on a soggy fl eld a nd wa s, consequently, somewhat s lower than th e other. The Acs ha ve now near ly completed the ir sched ul e, the s hortness of whi ch was du e to t he difficu lty encounter ed in a rrangin g ga l'n es.
