COLLEGEVILLE ITEMS.

Thursday and Friday w*ere the days for the regular bi-monthly tests in all the classes. On last Sunday, St. Joseph’s Day, the principal college holiday, Father Kanney was the celebrant of the solemn high mass. Rev. Ig. Raugh, Hanover Center, delivered a sermon very appropriate tp the celebration of the day. In the evening a delightful concert was given by the band. ; - The first real baseball game of the season was played last Sunday morning when the wouldbe varsity suffered defeat at the hands of the Reli|Jous who shut them put by two scores. It was a good game, and only for Harrison’s wild heave over home that let in the two runs, the game would have gone into extra innings, i Among our late visitors were

the following: Rev. F. X. Schalk. 'Burkettsville. Ohio; L. Schiraclc, Winamac; L. Lohmillcr. Pulaski; A'. Schuette, St. Joseph. Mo'.; I Raugh. Cook. Ind.; J. Cotter. :John R. Welsh, Miss Mary Brennan, Indianapolis: Edwin Feftig, p-.lwood; Miss Theresa Malay, Blrs, T. Hennahan Gas City ; J. Fralich, Tipton; Miss Ruth pufrane. Miss R. M. Rolillard, [Oswego, X. Y.; J. A. Hoffman. [Chicago: J. Hartz. Miss Marfeuerite Hartz, Logansport. > The real varsity is slowly ■rounding into shape. Weather [permitting; games are played [daily, and in the final line-up the Tollowing members will most [probably seek the rooters’ support : Grathwhol will hojd his old job behind the bat. Harrison tshdws up best on the slab, but die has not yet arrived at that Ringing stage at which anything like perfect control can be spoken of, but the crack of the bat from his delivery will be a minimum. Fiely and Lili are next in line and will ably take up the burdens. Hipskind has no dangerous contenders to dispute his claims to the overrunning station. At second, Whitcomb who scoops the ball and heaves it to first in true Johnny- Evers style, has a sure berth. The short lot will be easily watched by McArdle. The third cushion has thus far not proven a secure resting place to any one, and of the many candidates for the position there is no telling who will finally find the place agreeable. There is ample choice picking when the meadow 7 positions are dstributed.
