Out of sixty-two predictions made on the outcome of the Ogle! thorpe-Loyola game, in the contest held weekly by D. H. Holmes Co., eight named not only the winner, but also the exact score, which would seem to indicate for a number of the students at least, that their future would be golden if they would undertake plain and fancy crystal gazing as a profession.In accordance with the contest, James Steifell won a suit, Bernard Manale, a Stetson hat, and Bill Palmisano a leather belt, being the first three, in the order named, to hand in the correct score. However because of the fact that five others also guessed the correct score, Mr. E. Davis McCutcheon, advertising manager of D. H. Holmes, not wishing to allow such remarkable future reading to go Unrewarded, presented each with a tie, as concrete evidence of meritorious work.

During the past week the monster Study, took possession of the school and ruled the students with a relentless wrath and fury. His iron hand could be felt by all; freshman, junior, sophomore and senior alike. With his giant strength he seized the heads of the pupils, and slowly but surely put their noses to the grindstone of Work, and turned the wheel incessantly for five days and five nights without ever a thought of their weary minds and tiled bodies.Alas, 'tis sad but true. Many were the students who were shaken from their reveries and awakened to the stark realization that it was now or never to regain the precious knowledge snatched from them by their only too willing companion, Idleness. But Study, who strode through the halls, cracking the whip with his massive hand and making all kneel in obeisance to his commands, bore down like a ravaging beast upon the thief who usurped his domain, stele away the years of opportunity from his charges and ruined their minds, and with a cry of rage and disgust drove him from BAND TREASURY IS INAUGURATED Establishment of Revenue Fund for Future Needs Announced The members of the Loyola hand held a business meeting Monday at which- future policies of the band were discussed and preparations for social activities initiated.

Accordingly, strict check is being taken in musical ability, good-will, attendance, inarching and general reliability. Committees for the care of uniforms, instruments, transportation and entertainment were appointed. Application for band and orchestra membership may be secured from Fr. Mac Donald or by report ing to the band roem on Mondays and Wednesdays at "D p.m., where those who deem themselves eligible will be considered.
