COLLEGEVILLE ITEMS.

P. Carr, ,|LL. D., of Indianapolis, is spending several days with his son Cyrill at the college. Frank Kaiser, Minister, Ohio, a last year’s commercial student, accompanied his brother who entered as a student. The dining rooms in the basement of the church are now in use. In the spacious halls the number of students dwindles very much in appearance. C. Beigel, of Chicago, began the frescoing work last Monday. The absnce of that glass hinders the progress of his work; he is doing the small rooms at the south end. The basket ball league teams are playing dally games. Thus far the third Latins are the leaders. The Junior league began its regular schedule this week. The second Latins voted to disband the other day because the commission decided a disputed point against them. The second session began Tuesday morning with a high mass celebrated by Father Grelwe. The number of new students registered makes up for the decrease of those who have taken themselves to their homes or other places. As there were no classes during the retreat, several of the professors went to Chicago to view the Electric Show, and study the Wright aeroplane on exhibition there. They found Lieu. Fuolois, who was in charge, very accommodating in showing the workings of the machinery. The students’ three days retreat came to a close Monday morning. The exercises were conducted by Father Flavian, O. F. M., of Cincinnati, Ohio. He is a delightful and entertaining speaker, and all his instructive sermons were heard attentively. His too short, but very happy stay with the students has been to them a new inspiration, an awakening to higher things and nobler ideals, that tend to the making of good, useful and sincere Christians. The varsity turned tlhe trick on Co. M., and wiped out the sting of defeat in the armory here last Tuesday evening by overwhelming them with a score of 59 to 7. The city boys were the first to, score, but soon lost sight of the iron ring and the score-board. In the second period they were unable to capture a single point. The game was hard fought from first to last, yet it was a very ( clean game as only four fouls were called, each team offending twice. It took the varsity but a few minutes to trike their gait, and then they scored at will. Kampp and McArdle seldom missed, and Lili starred by bagging several long range shots. A game with Crawford high school is scheduled for next Saturday evening at 7?80.
