The !ourth annual recital a nd musl· cal concer t wHl be given Friday evening, May 13th at eight o'clock by the s tudents of the Piano department of St. Viator College at Notre Dame Convent Auditorium, Bourbonnais. Professor Leslie J. R och, who has been in charge of the music department at St. Viator !or the past i'our years , has worked earnestly and d1ligently to develop fn the s tudents or this depart­ment a high a ppreciation for the best musical literature. During this time he has attempted to familiarize them with the musical compositions ot a ll t he fore­most composers of pianoforte music from Bach down to the modern writers and to give them a work! ng knowledge of the characteristics o! the music or each period.

Among those posSess ing unusual talents as pianists were Ralph Garsa, who Is now studying at Notre Dame University, Louis Val lely, now at Loyola Univer­si ty and J ames Corbett still a t Viator, a ll of whom have !ormerly won the Gold medal which Mr. Roch presents each year to his best students.

batable question in the State ot New York and though mos t ot the aud1ence were ot the opinion that St. VIator Col­leg e had the better of the argument, eve n thoug h on the nega tive side, the j udges r endered an adve rse decls lon . A close deba te was los t to Providence College at Prov ide nce, Rhode Island, the next evening on the same subject a.nd on the same unfavora ble s ide ot the question. This ended the debates on Prohibition ques tion to the great relfet or the debating tea m who f elt that they were aga inst insupe rable odds in de­tending this side ot the ques tion In the Eastern states. The next evening tho ver y able and polished team ot B oston College w a s met on its home floor on Lhe ques tion: "Resolved, that the United States s hould adopt a unl!orrn Marriage and Divorce Law". The Viatorians de· !ended the af!1rmatlve side of th is ques-­tion and lost a close decision to the Bos tonia ns. In justice to the Boston Colleg e team It mus t be sa id that o n the evening's discussion they deserved the decisio n. This was the first time the Via tor team had debated this ques· lion a nd they w ere not quite as sure of themselves as they had been in the pr e· v ious debates. Boston College enter­tained us royally and did everythinr; In their power to make our visit to The Hub pleasant a nd m emorable. Another close debate was lost the next evening, 2 to 1, to Holy Cross College, Worcester, Massachusetts. The Viatorians acquitt· ed themselves very much better than they did the previous evening in Boston and R ev . John F. X. Murphy, S. J., Coach ot the Holy Cross debating team, was generous enough to say that he thought that we might, without any injustice, have won the decision. N o won13 can describd adeq-ua.-;t-ely -the generous hospitality with which Holy CrOss Col1ege entertained our debaters and the memory of the sumptuous sup­per served after the \debate tn the leading hotel of Worcester to both de­bating teams, will Hve long in the mem­ory of our debaters. The last debate ended in a unanimous decision over Union College, Scbnectady, New York, as already related.

The members o! the team who made the somewhat trying trip, going through eight debates In t en days, were John W. Stafford '30, James Allen Nolan '29 and J ames T . Connor '27. The alte r · na te was Maurice L. Leclaire '28. St. Viator College has every reason to be proud of its representative debating team thiS year. Every team that W 3.3

met knew tha t it was in a battle. Pleasant relations have been established with a ll these colleges in the East anU it is quite likely that in tuture years many ot them will send debating teams West. The entire intercollegiate debate schedule and results were as follows:

On Sunday evening, April 24, the Club Espanol Cervantes having accept ed t he inYitation of Miss M. L.

ST. VIATOR WINS THREE STRAIGHT

FROM BRADLEY It w as a great comeback for St.

Viator down at B radley last week when St. Viator ran away w ith its third straight game a nd incidentally chalked up another hig h water mark in the total of 60 runs in :four consecutive wins. Someone said that St. Viator was on its way to a Conference Cham­pionship; no doubt it will again have the best cl ub in the league but the tn· ability t o schedule sufficient number ot games may deprive the Green of the much coveted bunting. So t a r the Me· Alliste r c lub has :fo ur games to i ts credi t without a single setback; we must w ai t tor the vlsit o! Bradley here on the 28th before hoisting the Con· t erence penna nt to the t op o! the !lag ­pole.

JUNE 4th DATE VIATOR-NOTRE

DAME BATTLE There a r e a f ew more games of con·

siderable import on St. Viator's schedule but none, not even tho trip up to Michigan, looms so imposing ns the annual vi~it to Notre Dame on Alumni Dl.y, J 1me 4th . Not~ Dame has been ourning things up this year , and has a hurling staff that is eq ual to a n ything in college circles the country over. Just who will be trotted out against Viator is hard to say. There is Besten, a three year s tar at the Hoosier school; then Ed VValsh, who critics say, has inherited much o!. the cunning and ta lent of h is famous D a d; and Romer, the lad who relieved Wals h when the Viatorians started poking baseba lls to all corners of the lot, and who incidentally tamed the Viatorians. In addition to the::;e men there is a corking good infield and a heavy hitting outfield, fl eet o:f foot, experie nced and the pick ot some twenty-five hundred students. All of which sounds like so much p r e-game apology from our side ot the fence, but the intent o! this article is j ust the opposite. It a nyt hing we a r e stronger t han last year in the matter of hitting a nd fielding, and Herber t, Sisteck y , Ha rrington or Delaney, w ho , while not possessed of the mortal threat that the great Dundon hurled into the hearts of a ll opposition, have s hown enough talent to warrant that department o! the game being well taken care ot. Last year our infield wen t to bust; this year we look for some heavy clouting on both sides, with timely hitting the chief and all important !actor tn the triumph. No less than eleven m en died on the bases last year; this season we are driving them in with som e lusty mace wielding.

knocks poled out by the tnvaders were for extra bases, including a pair o! ci r cu it smashes by Sistecky and Costi · gan.

VIATOR TAKES V ALPO IN FOUR GAME FESTIVAL

While the gam e Itsel f offered little In the way ot competition, it gave the Viator batsmen another crack a t southpaw pitching, and in addition established the !act tha t "Statlstcs­Murphy-Sisecky" n ot onl y played a bang-up game in the outfield despite his battered a nd muc h bandaged optic, but h it the ba ll with t he same gusto and confidence that m arked his game prior to the crack he r eceived over at Norma l earlier in the week. Someone said on the bench "I'm satlstted jus t to see tha t lad get up there a nd swing the c lub". When "Murp h " meets them on the nose they clear everything but the tall buildings. Sistecky is one of the new crop o! ball players who number among their ranks s uch promising m embers as Ed Campbell, convertible in fi elder and catcher: Bi Eva rd , the r egular second sacker whose work has been mentioned in a nother column; and Tom Ferris whose work at tirst base will keep the veteran Laenhardt step­ping. With these men in the back­g round, and the willingness of Coach McAll ister to work them into the regu· lar lineup whenever favor able opportu · n ity presents itself, baseball prestig e at Viator ls assured t or some time to come.

Delaney Hits Storm In the opening chukker D elaney

stepped rig ht into a big hole; before he could work up enough heat the bases were decorated w ith Valpo m en and none out. Then cam e the steam and ! r lsty Va lpo melted a nd withered right up to the ninth inning; Mike got eleven strikeouts, a nd despi te two misplays by his mates was helped t o s u ff'lcient runs t o salt away a ny game :tor the a rchives. Incidently Mike snapped oft three bingles, one o:f which went tor the round o! the bases. Dalrymple sUpped up on a pla y at second and Costigan's error of judgement marred an other· wise great fie lding game. Jimmie had his man o ut but in altdlng to the bag the Valpoit e's :toot accidently spiked the ba ll and tore It out o! his hand; Costiga n was under a high one when the wind got behind 1t and carreld the spheroid out over his head. The misses didn't materialize due to some :fine pitching by Delaney; so all's well that ends well .

in t our games and one hundred and eleven runs in nine games is something to shout a bout. B ut we already have a ta rget to bit at; two years ago Viator scored 136 runs in six games, which was broadcast around the country as a collegiate record. Two of these games ha d to be called in the seventh inning w hen the attempt to r etir e the side proved futile. We had Ding and John Winterhalter, Mlck Donnelly and a. few more swatsmiths then.

VIATOR ACADEMY HEAVY HITTING WINS 6-2 GAME FEATURES WIN FROM ST. MARY'S OVE~ORMAL

St. Mary's of B loomington cama to Bourbonna is yesterday laden with laurel wreaths i n tribute t o its great work tn and a r ound Bloomington. No t eam had achieved as many wins as the Blooming­ton Busters. And every move t hey made around the VIator campus 1nd1· cat ed that they were cocky and proud over their abillties.

But St. Viator, who was opening its official season under the tu telage o! Coach Barrett, immediately began t o knock ,.the props :from under B looming· ton. McMahon opened with a single, Anderhub scored t he !leet McMahon on another single after t he :former had p ilfered second. Walkoviack crashed out another and Kells got a life on Siever 's second base error; Si Daley and Van Wormer went out on easy :flies. Viator had t aken the lead in the very first inning, 3 to 0.

In t he f ourth Viator a lmost made it around robin tn the batting order, starting with Van Wanner and ending with K ells, just m issing Daley, who in· c identaUy had the m isfortune to crack his hits right a t Bloomington infielders. Four runs came in this inning, and with t he airtight pitching o! T exas Jim Daley, who permitted but one hlt in the first seven innings, it was a :fore· gone conclusion tha t Bloomington had cracked.

They remaJned cocky r ight u p to the last out, and tried valfantly to turn the tide o:f victory but in vain. It was a tine game throughout, and indicated that Barrett has a n umber ot great per· formers who can be d eveloped in to real ball players.

Captain Daley and Edward Walkoviack were m entioned as two outstanding u nits in the team, but both have already been a warded a monogram in bask etball.

HERBERT PROVES HIS

Spurred on by the conf idence that a victory over Bradley only can give, and t his in the tace of Bradley's tie game with Illinois just a week previous , the bludgeons of the G r een made short a nd businesslike work of the State T eachers at Normal the following day, l!lettlng them down b y the terrific score of 21 t o 9. Dalrymple had a pertect da y at ba t at Peoria, while his running mate Evard r apped out three out ot t our; today Evard got a slngle, two doubles and a homer, w hile hls running m a t e clicked ott two out of three. It's a great Infield combination both ways.

Brick young says: Sam McAllis ter's St. Viator college

ba ll club went a. step nea rer the "Little Nineteen" baseball championship yes­terday at the State Normal fi eld, when the I rish gaTe the Teachers an un· m er ciful beating, 21 t o 9. McAllister's boys clinched the verdict in the very firs t inning , when they scored nina runs, a nd there never was any question about the r esult a.t a n y stage thereafter. The victory was a costly one t or Coach McABis t er, however, ! or Pete Harring· t on , his pitching m ainstay, hurt his arm in the second inning and had to r etire in favor or Webber; while Sis· tecky, another s lab artist, who was perform ing in left fi eld, took a n asty cut just a bove the eye, and H erbert, a third St. Viator a thlete, sustained an injured ankle when a ground ball car· omed tnto it.

""By" ' Evard. St. VIa tor ba.sj<etball star had a big day with the stick, gathered a s ingle, t wo doubles and n. home run during the cou rse o! the afternoon , whlle Da lrymple, Benda , S is· tecky and Bell all collected two hJts apiece tn the seventh inning combat. Dalrymple a nd Sist ecky both hit home runs.

Not all the glory goes t o the Viator· tans. Richard Tate, Normal's speedy center fielder making a mirac le catch tn the s ixth inning of a terrific wallop ott John Benda's ba t tha t was beaded t or a hole in deep center. The colored boy lett his tee t, made a flying dlTe and came up with the ball. It was one ot the prettiest bits of :fielding ever made on the old N ormal battle ground.
