SANTA CLARA TOMORROW Him NEVADA NEXT WEEK Vol. 1, No. 12 FEBRUARY 15, 1929 FRIDAY FOG, BRONCOS MEET TOMORROW IGNATIAN DEBATERS IN BEST SCHEDULE IN RECENT YEARS Fog Speakers Tangle With Northwestern, Stanford and Santa Clara Meeting Santa Clara, Northwestern and Stanford in the order named, Ignatian varsity debaters are facing the most active season sheduled in recent years. With the Stanford debate of last November, the various intromural activities, the Sullivan Memorial contest and the national intercollegiate oratorical contest, these coming debates round out a forensic program far surpassing those of the past. All of the events will be held in the Ignatian Hall. Santa Clara Santa Clara will be met during the week of March 18. The subject has not yet been announced, but is to be posted upon conclusion of current correspondence with the debating authorities at the Mission university. Northwestern University, of Evans- ton, Illinois, will appear during the week of April 1. In this debate the question will involve the Baumes Laws of New York—a discussion of the control of crime as attempted in the several states which have recently modeled legislation after those statutes. Stanford In April During the latter part of April, Stanford will send a team to debate the criticism of American culture so popular in some foreign countries. It is understood that the Ignatian speakers will uphold certain of the critics, but this is unsettled at present. W. B. Spohn, '30, manager of for- ensics, has announced that the Forensic Council prefers upper division speakers for these contests. Whether they are to be chosen by trial or by the council has not been determined. Spohn promises to post the decision of the council as soon as it is handed down to him. Action is expected during the coming week. Gaels Drop Another To Fog Basketeers Captain Maloney Stars As St. Mary's Is Decisively Beaten Captain Ray Maloney's wards at the St. Mary's game rally were well spoken. Ray made a statement to the effect that the varsity would defeat the St. Mary's five by something like twice as many points as in the first contest, in order to remove all doubt of superiority. And that is exactly what they did—they defeated the Gaels 28-16, a twelve point margin and twice as many points as in the initial engagement. And Captain Ray contributed eleven points in support of his cause. Barielles vs. Tazer The feature of a mediocre game was the side issue between Captain Tazer of St. Mary's and Rene Barielles of the varsity. The two had a little game of temple tapping et al of their own. Barielles won four socks to three and was rewarded with expulsion from the game when the raps were interpreted as four personal fouls. Maloney Scores Tazer of the Gaels started the scoring with a shot under the bucket. Barielles started for the Ignatians with a free throw. Hale of the Fog came through with a pretty hole shot on a clever pass by Barielles. Kleckner helped the Fog with a free throw and Captain Maloney added two more free throws. Maloney then shot a nice bucket from the foul circle. Hale swelled the Ignatian score with a hole shot, and when he was fouled on the attempt he made both free throws on the penalty. Boyle finally scored one for the Gaels on a side court shot and Tazer made a free throw to bring the St. Mary's total to five. Maloney "got hot" and made two buckets in succession, one from the foul circle and one from a difficult angle at the corner of the court. Kleckner made it 18-5 with a basket from the foul line as the half ended. (Continued on Page 3, Col. 5) Calendar of Events For Coming Fortnight Feb. 15—Annual Oratorical Contest for Y. M. I. medal in College Auditorium. Feb. 16, Saturday—St. Ignatius meets Santa Clara in basketball game at Kezar Pavilion. Feb. 22-23—St. Ignatius meets University of Nevada in basketball series at Kezar Pavilion to complete collegiate schedule. Feb. 25-28—Annual Student Retreat in St. Ignatius Church. March 11, 13, 14—Sacred drama, "The Upper Room." March 13—McKinley Debate. TENTATIVE CAST IS SELECTED FOR PLAY'UPPER ROOM' Dates of Drama Definitely Set for March 11, 13, 14 with Extra Matinee The date for the presentation of the Religious Drama of the Passion has been definitely fixed for March 11, 13, 14 with a matinee on the 10th. It is expected that this production will surpass any presentation hitherto presented by the College Players, because of its elaborate portrayal of the gripping drama hinging about the Passion and death of Christ. In one of the largest turnouts for a college production, the director selected the following tentative cast: Mary Gabrielle Greefkens Joseph of Arimathea Wilson J. O'Brien John Jack Cullen Judas Not selected Longinus Joseph Dondero Mary Magdalene Mary McCarthy Veronica Henrietta Lombardi Samuel Kenneth Girard Achaz Val King The Doctor Thomas List Peter Malcolm Wilmes Two members of this cast are familiar with college fans, Val King, who will be remembered for his portrayal of the gruff trooper in "The Copperhead" and Gabrielle Greefkens who was very interesting as the sister-in-law in "White Collars." The other candidates are all well- known about the campus and much is expected of them in this, the fifth production of the College Players. Two Contests Open For Competition In Poetical Composition The University of Redlands is offering a prize for the best verse composition, handed in to the University of Redlands before March 15, 1929. The prize is offered by the Sigma Delta Tau Fraternity. Other prizes of five dollars cash are offered. Marquette University of Wisconsin, a Jesuit college, through its poetry department is offering a hundred dollar prize for the best piece of collegiate verse. Annual Oratorical Contest for Y. M. I. Qold Medal to he Held Tomorrow Night YEAR BOOK DUE TO APPEAR MAY 1 By Daniel C. Deasy, Jr. This year's Ignatian will appear on the campus May 1, 1929. It will be the largest year book yet published by the Associated Students of St. Ignatius College. Moreover, it will be a financial success as well. It is the intention of the staff to cover more completely than ever before, the varied phases of student life. Where there have been gaps in the chronicle of past years, there will be no such defects this year. The editor and his staff have been working afternoons and evenings since the semester began. With the co-operation of the students of both day and evening divisions, they hope to produce a record-breaking annual. Book Rolling Along Well The work is well advanced, and will be completed in ample time for an early appearance of the book. The photographs of the classes have been taken, and the organizations will be photographed in the near future. All the books will be sold by the end of the week, in fact all but a very limited number have been contracted for already. We expect to have more orders than we can fill, but there is still a chance to buy a book. Our policy of printing only the number actually contracted for will not be strictly adhered to. If you want a book get on the job right away and reserve one for yourself. Organizations and student government will be especially featured In the annual this year. This does not mean, however, that sports and literary will be overlooked. On the contrary, athletics will have exactly the same proportionate place in the book that it had last year. The motif, that all-important item of the successful annual, has been chosen by Russ Keil, '31, and his art staff. It will be two-fold, viz: Books and the Progress of the Law. We have seen the color cuts, and they are wows. There will be four of these color plates, each done in four colors, to head the main divisions of the book. They feature the Law. The border of each page will be worked out on the book-motif. The thirteen subdivisions of the book will be done in sharply contrasted black-and-white, and feature the books. This double motif plan is something new at St. Ignatius, where things lit- terary are usually done with little or no motif at all. It is the very latest angle in correct annuals. The 1929 Ignatian will certainly be in all respects the best yet published in this institution. This is not said in order to belittle the fine work that has been done in the past in this regard, but only with the utmost confidence in the book which is now being produced. Oh, the Inhuman Brute! Evening Law Court Holds Cruelty Divorce Trial of Mary Johnson "And in conclusion, your honor, we ask that this poor, frail, helpless little mite of a woman be granted a decree of divorce, and that she be declared to be no longer the wife of this cruel, inhuman savage that the law once called her husband." With the emotional exhaustion of one who has expended all of his energy in the championship of an oppressed person, Al Aurich, with Charles McClory of counsel for the plaintiff, submitted to the sound determination of the court the case of Mary Johnson. Evidence The evidence on behalf of the plaintiff had been that while the plaintiff was entertaining guests on Christmas Eve, the defendant, a porter in a pool room, came home in a surly mood and in the presence of others, without cause or provocation, battered her brutally with his fists, much to her embarrassment and hurt. As is the custom in courts of justice, Ray Mc- Dougald and Sam Berman, attorneys for the defendant, emphatically denied that their client struck his wife, but argued that if he did strike her, it was a gentle blow, and was struck in self-defense. With this knot of martial discord to unravel, Mr. John O'Gara, presiding judge, pondered learnedly, determined that justice should prevail. Counsel on both sides had argued eloquently, and— "Will the plaintiff arise," commanded the court. "Yes, your honor," boomed a husky bass voice. "So you are Mary Johnson,"., the court noted, as is the custom with courts. Frail, Helpless! The judge looked sternly at the "frail, helpless, little mite of a woman." For the purpose of the Moot Court of the senior law class, Joseph Gallagher of Santa Clara football fame had been selected for the role of Mary Johnson. And there stood this six foot female impersonator with his two hundred odd pounds of brawn, etc. "Judgment for defendant," roared the court, which is the custom In courts of law. Santa Clara Team, Once Defeated By Ignatian Five, Still Looms As Real Threat to Fog's Undefeated Record The Gray Fog varsity as yet undefeated has but three more games to go and then they will have realized their ambition in completing a season with an unblemished record. The real test will come Saturday evening when they meet the Broncos of Santa Clara in a return game that should they win they will have the undisputed title of Pacific Coast champions. Ignatians Favorites The Ignatians have so far been the class on the coast and if they win Saturday they will be favorites over Nevada in the last scheduled games of the collegiate year. The Gray Fog has already defeated the Santa Clar- ans and according to all the dope they should repeat their victory over the Broncos. With two let-up games with the California Aggies over the weekend, the Ignatians should be in good form against the Broncos. Since both the teams have defeated the Golden Bears the difference In scores ought to give a fair estimate of the relative strength of the two teams. The Gray Fog won over the Bears by a 34-22 score and the Broncos staged a comeback to emerge victorious by the total of 32-26. These comparative scores will give the Ignatians a six point advantage over the boys from San Jose and way points. Another score that gives the Ignatians an advantage over the" Broncos is the results of the games played with Stanford. The Ignatians easily won by the score of 30-23, whereas the Broncos were shut out in the last few minutes of play by the Red Horde after leading by 14 points within ten minutes of the final gun. These scores indicate a distinct and easy win for the Ignatians but as they are figuring out on the Ignatian Heights that the coming game with Santa Clara will decide the winner of the title on the coast and which is the best team ever to be assembled in the West. Color Scheme On Cover The cover of this year's book is to be done in colors seldom seen in school annuals, black and gold. The cover will be in a novel-grained black fabricoid, with a gold gate and gold lettering upon the front. The edge will have the name and date of the book on it, together with a simple design. The Ignatian has never been large enough to make this latter feature possible in the past, so that's another novelty for the 1929 book. We are also to see a book done in an extra color throughout, which will be used in borders, captions and separation pages. Last year's book, it will be remembered, had only black and white. So we see the hopeful plans of a hard-working staff nearing completion. It looks as if they will be eminently successful, artistically and financially. Copy is coming in rapidly, and the book will be going to press before another edition of this paper has gone to press. Frosh Yell Leader, Tossed Dignity of Press; In Apology Ernie Loustau learned something in the last two weeks about press associations. Ernie up until the Loyola series two weeks ago had not heard of the A. P., or more technically the Associated Press. So much was he ignorant that when Joe Custer, A. P. correspondent covering the series, failed to show marks of identification when sitting in the press box, Ernie tossed him out. "Who's the A.P?" said Ernie. "Never heard of them." Ernie is now writing an apology to Custer for the untoward action in which he was assisted by two burly men from the stands. P. M. A. With the Gray Fog team in great shape they loom as favorites to win Saturday but as the Broncos are always worthy opponents the Mentor of the Ignatians is taking no chances that his team will become overcome with confidence and he is giving them hard practice this week so as to keep the ever famous P. M. A. instilled in them and he claims that the Broncos will have to play ball to beat his team as they are anxious to end the season undefeated. Maloney and Hale Ready Captain Ray Maloney and Jay Hale will be ready to continue their shooting of baskets and what-have-you, as soon as the game rolls around and they hope to be able to give a good account of themselves in the return game with the Broncos. This combination of forwards is possibly the best that has ever been assembled in the West and judging by their past performances they will give the Santa Clara guards something to think and act about. Rene Barielles, the tricky running guard of the Ignatians will be on hand to fool the boys as he has so often done in the past and with Wally Cameron promise to hold the opponents to as small a score as possible. Kleckner Improves Big Bob Kleckner, the only new man on the team since last, year, has been improving so rapidly that the man behind the team is so impressed with his work that he thinks that he has the eighth world wonder, because of the fact of his learning the far- famous Needles system in so short a time that he appeared to know it as well as Jimmy Needles himself. Kleckner's playing has improved so much that he is now considered part of the bulwark around which the Ignatian defense is built. Broncos Strong Shots With these five men functioning as they are capable of doing the Ignatians should be on the long end of the score when the final gun is shot next Saturday evening. The Broncos will depend on Gough, Connolly and Shuppert or Leahy to out-shoot the Ignatian five. The test whether or not they can do it will be seen when the two teams meet. To the certain knowledge the Santa Clarans will have to have one of tl/e things called "nights" if they hope to contend with the shooting of the Maloney-Hale-Kleckner- Barielles-Cameron combination. Gough is the ace of the Bronco attack al- EIGHT SPEECHES TO BE DELIVERED IN BIG CONTEST Frank Colligan, '29, Second Last Year, Picked As Man To Beat In Competition The 1929 program of forensics opens tomorrow evening in the college auditorium with the annual contest in oratory for the gold medal given by Ignatian Council of the Young Men's Institute. The program promises to be the best in the history of the contest with eight really fine speakers and a diversity of interesting topics. This contest has always lived up to the purpose for which it was sponsored in that it has brought out many fine orators. O'Kane Last Year's Winner John A. O'Kane of '29 was last year's medalist with his brilliant pana- gyric of Fra. Junipero Serra. He also won the Sullivan Memorial award in a contest against St. Mary's and Santa Clara. From this we may gather that the winner of tomorrow night's meeting must be a speaker of some little ability. Eight Speakers on Program The following is a list of the orators and their titles in the order of speaking: J. "Dondero, Modern Paganism. F. J. Colligan, The World at the Crossways. Cyril Bryner, A Modern Crusade. J. J. Coleman, Why Help the Criminal. T. R. Villanueva, Redemption of America's Promise. F. J. Silva, The Voice of Belgium. J. S. DeMartini, Greater Love Hath No Man. L. D. Luckman, The Catholic Emancipator. though the boys will have to spend particular attention to Tim Connolly, the lanky center because he has been so far the mainstay of the team this year. Leahy and Shuppert shoot from center and should they hit their stride and sink a few shots the score will be a close one. Once these boys start hitting the long ones they are hard to stop and will hit them all night should the case warrant it. So with these few hints at the "natural" to be played this week end we have only to wait and see that the Pacific Coast champions are not defeated at this late date, although the Broncos are very capable of being the team to upset the dope and beat the varsity should they not appear in their usual form. Rooters Must Suffer Aside But Not In Silence—Reserved Seats Are For Patrons The St. Ignatius student body at basketball games remains just a yell in the corner. This was the ruling of the Board of Athletic Control following the application of the Associated Student board last week for a better seating position at St. Ignatius basketball games at Kezar Pavilion in the future. Hitherto the rooting section has been put two sections to one side to give its moral support, and will remain two sections to one side for the three remaining games on the Fog schedule. The reason given by the Board of Control was that the tickets for the reserved seat section which is directly in the center of the floor, have all been printed for the remainder of the year.

Qold Medal to he Held Tomorrow Night YEAR BOOK DUE TO APPEAR MAY 1 By Daniel C. Deasy, Jr. This year's Ignatian will appear on the campus May 1, 1929. It will be the largest year book yet published by the Associated Students of St. Ignatius College. Moreover, it will be a financial success as well. It is the intention of the staff to cover more completely than ever before, the varied phases of student life. Where there have been gaps in the chronicle of past years, there will be no such defects this year. The editor and his staff have been working afternoons and evenings since the semester began. With the co-operation of the students of both day and evening divisions, they hope to produce a record-breaking annual. Book Rolling Along Well The work is well advanced, and will be completed in ample time for an early appearance of the book. The photographs of the classes have been taken, and the organizations will be photographed in the near future. All the books will be sold by the end of the week, in fact all but a very limited number have been contracted for already. We expect to have more orders than we can fill, but there is still a chance to buy a book. Our policy of printing only the number actually contracted for will not be strictly adhered to.

This does not mean, however, that sports and literary will be overlooked. On the contrary, athletics will have exactly the same proportionate place in the book that it had last year. The motif, that all-important item of the successful annual, has been chosen by Russ Keil, '31, and his art staff. It will be two-fold, viz: Books and the Progress of the Law. We have seen the color cuts, and they are wows. There will be four of these color plates, each done in four colors, to head the main divisions of the book. They feature the Law. The border of each page will be worked out on the book-motif. The thirteen subdivisions of the book will be done in sharply contrasted black-and-white, and feature the books. This double motif plan is something new at St. Ignatius, where things lit- terary are usually done with little or no motif at all. It is the very latest angle in correct annuals. The 1929 Ignatian will certainly be in all respects the best yet published in this institution. This is not said in order to belittle the fine work that has been done in the past in this regard, but only with the utmost confidence in the book which is now being produced. Oh, the Inhuman Brute! Evening Law Court Holds Cruelty Divorce Trial of Mary Johnson "And in conclusion, your honor, we ask that this poor, frail, helpless little mite of a woman be granted a decree of divorce, and that she be declared to be no longer the wife of this cruel, inhuman savage that the law once called her husband." With the emotional exhaustion of one who has expended all of his energy in the championship of an oppressed person, Al Aurich, with Charles McClory of counsel for the plaintiff, submitted to the sound determination of the court the case of Mary Johnson.

Counsel on both sides had argued eloquently, and— "Will the plaintiff arise," commanded the court. "Yes, your honor," boomed a husky bass voice. "So you are Mary Johnson,"., the court noted, as is the custom with courts. Frail, Helpless! The judge looked sternly at the "frail, helpless, little mite of a woman." For the purpose of the Moot Court of the senior law class, Joseph Gallagher of Santa Clara football fame had been selected for the role of Mary Johnson. And there stood this six foot female impersonator with his two hundred odd pounds of brawn, etc. "Judgment for defendant," roared the court, which is the custom In courts of law. Santa Clara Team, Once Defeated By Ignatian Five, Still Looms As Real Threat to Fog's Undefeated Record The Gray Fog varsity as yet undefeated has but three more games to go and then they will have realized their ambition in completing a season with an unblemished record. The real test will come Saturday evening when they meet the Broncos of Santa Clara in a return game that should they win they will have the undisputed title of Pacific Coast champions. Ignatians Favorites The Ignatians have so far been the class on the coast and if they win Saturday they will be favorites over Nevada in the last scheduled games of the collegiate year.

The Gray Fog won over the Bears by a 34-22 score and the Broncos staged a comeback to emerge victorious by the total of 32-26.

Another score that gives the Ignatians an advantage over the" Broncos is the results of the games played with Stanford. The Ignatians easily won by the score of 30-23, whereas the Broncos were shut out in the last few minutes of play by the Red Horde after leading by 14 points within ten minutes of the final gun. These scores indicate a distinct and easy win for the Ignatians but as they are figuring out on the Ignatian Heights that the coming game with Santa Clara will decide the winner of the title on the coast and which is the best team ever to be assembled in the West.

Rene Barielles, the tricky running guard of the Ignatians will be on hand to fool the boys as he has so often done in the past and with Wally Cameron promise to hold the opponents to as small a score as possible. Kleckner Improves Big Bob Kleckner, the only new man on the team since last, year, has been improving so rapidly that the man behind the team is so impressed with his work that he thinks that he has the eighth world wonder, because of the fact of his learning the far- famous Needles system in so short a time that he appeared to know it as well as Jimmy Needles himself. Kleckner's playing has improved so much that he is now considered part of the bulwark around which the Ignatian defense is built. Broncos Strong Shots With these five men functioning as they are capable of doing the Ignatians should be on the long end of the score when the final gun is shot next Saturday evening. The Broncos will depend on Gough, Connolly and Shuppert or Leahy to out-shoot the Ignatian five. The test whether or not they can do it will be seen when the two teams meet. To the certain knowledge the Santa Clarans will have to have one of tl/e things called "nights" if they hope to contend with the shooting of the Maloney-Hale-Kleckner- Barielles-Cameron combination. Gough is the ace of the Bronco attack al- EIGHT SPEECHES TO BE DELIVERED IN BIG CONTEST Frank Colligan, '29, Second Last Year, Picked As Man To Beat In Competition The 1929 program of forensics opens tomorrow evening in the college auditorium with the annual contest in oratory for the gold medal given by Ignatian Council of the Young Men's Institute. The program promises to be the best in the history of the contest with eight really fine speakers and a diversity of interesting topics. This contest has always lived up to the purpose for which it was sponsored in that it has brought out many fine orators. O'Kane Last Year's Winner John A. O'Kane of '29 was last year's medalist with his brilliant pana- gyric of Fra. Junipero Serra. He also won the Sullivan Memorial award in a contest against St. Mary's and Santa Clara. From this we may gather that the winner of tomorrow night's meeting must be a speaker of some little ability. Eight Speakers on Program The following is a list of the orators and their titles in the order of speaking: J. "Dondero, Modern Paganism. F. J. Colligan, The World at the Crossways. Cyril Bryner, A Modern Crusade. J. J. Coleman, Why Help the Criminal. T. R. Villanueva, Redemption of America's Promise. F. J. Silva, The Voice of Belgium. J. S. DeMartini, Greater Love Hath No Man. L. D. Luckman, The Catholic Emancipator. though the boys will have to spend particular attention to Tim Connolly, the lanky center because he has been so far the mainstay of the team this year. Leahy and Shuppert shoot from center and should they hit their stride and sink a few shots the score will be a close one. Once these boys start hitting the long ones they are hard to stop and will hit them all night should the case warrant it. So with these few hints at the "natural" to be played this week end we have only to wait and see that the Pacific Coast champions are not defeated at this late date, although the Broncos are very capable of being the team to upset the dope and beat the varsity should they not appear in their usual form. Rooters Must Suffer Aside But Not In Silence—Reserved Seats Are For Patrons The St. Ignatius student body at basketball games remains just a yell in the corner. This was the ruling of the Board of Athletic Control following the application of the Associated Student board last week for a better seating position at St. Ignatius basketball games at Kezar Pavilion in the future. Hitherto the rooting section has been put two sections to one side to give its moral support, and will remain two sections to one side for the three remaining games on the Fog schedule. The reason given by the Board of Control was that the tickets for the reserved seat section which is directly in the center of the floor, have all been printed for the remainder of the year.
