The sermon to t the students next Sunday, tile Feast of SL Joseph, the patron saint of the college, will be delivered by Rev. Ig. Raugh, of Hanover Center, Ind. Among; nut visitors during the week were the following: J. Martin, Indianapolis; Rev. Ig! Zircher, Goodland ; Rev. J. Schuette and Rev. J. Kohnen, Chicago. On SL Patrick’s evening, Rev, Arnold Weyrnan will deliver on the Irish apostle, at Kentland, and on the same day, Rev. T. F. Kramer will preach the sermon at thh St. Patrick’s day celebration at SL Patrick’s church, Terre Haute., The candidates for the base ball team are busy getting into shape for the opening of the season. The very unfavorable March weather has thus far kept the workers In the gymnasium, and hence the pitchers only have been able to do real work. Harrison, who throws with his left hand, promises to be the season’s mainstay on the pitching staff. He controls a good curve, and has speed, but lacks experience. Fiely, last year’s league champion hurler, will prove a faithful understudy, if not a claimant for equal honors. Besides Sabados and Lill may come in for a share of the burden. Grathwohl, catcher, and Carmody, fielder, are the only holdovers from last year’s champions. The sporting editor of the Viatorian, Kankakee, has doped it out why the St. ,Joe Varsity could win no basket ball games The Varsity was playing agdinst the inevitable luck of 13. Thus the editor: “Did you ever believe that 13 was uulucky for St. Viator’s? If you did. erase that thought from your mind by glancing at the St. Joseph contest. The game was played on Feb. 13. Thirteen men were used as participants; the Varsity scored 3x13, SL Joseph 2x13, and won by 13 points. Never} again will we be superstitious. ’
