Therefore , tc provide a m ea.ns for all to parti cipate , a system of Intra-mural ac tivities is being inaugurated by the Rev. F. J. Harbauer, C . S. V., Directo r of Athletics. J oh n Hargrove bas been appointed Student Manager, and w ill handle as hi s fi rs t activity a Bowling Tournament whi ch wi ll be followed in turn by a Pool Tournament and a Ping-Pong Tournament. In yea rs gone by, Fathe r Thomas Hariss, a devoted alumnus of the College, was a pioneer in th e deve loping of Intra-mural a ctivities. Howeve r, with the abandonment of th e Hi gh School d epartment and the consequ en t drop in boarding students, th e Int ra -mura l program was allowed to laps e, while more emphasis was placed upon varsity co mpetiton. Last year saw a r evival, and with the new r eco r d enrollment of this year, Intra-mural activities bid well to encou rage even more the high s pirit that, in previous ye ars, was so pre valent on th e Viator campu s.

Plans were begun Saturday night Kenn e th Wiser. Byron Burke and G eorge M cWeen ey fo r the fo r mation of a College Dance Orchestra. These four men, who hope to surround themselves with app roximately eight other players, b · express as t e tr purpose, the d esire to s timulate their interest in popuJar music and to put to practical use their knowledge of instr umental entertainment. The orches tra is to known as "The Viatorians", and, after secu rin g the c urre nt orchestrations. shall be ope n for engagements both on and off of the campus. All four of th e originators of the o rgan izati on have bad previo us experience in dance band playing, and a r e, th erefo re, we ll qualified fo r the undertaking.
