Tinsel Glittered The orchestra behind its screen of glimmering tinsel struck up the band! Jingle Bells was the result. Jingle Bells! How the Dons enjoyed the strains of that lilting tune! Slowly at first and softly. One heard the sleigh approaching through the cold, clear, crisp air of the holiday season. Then as the sleighs approached the sleigh bells grew louder and louder and sounded faster and faster. The happy throng in the school auditorium whirled through the gay moments of that dance and when it was over demanded a repetition. Three times the orchestra played that number before the insistent merrymakers would allow them to rest. Mistletoe And the dancer who couldn't resist the mistletoe in the middle of the dance floor and^he advantage offered by the soft lights. And the gentleman who was caught fixing his garter in the exit doorway by the man in the balcony with the spotlight. What a time everybody had! And this year it is to be even more enjoyable.

This photo, taken from Lone Mountain before the present San Francisco College for Women was erected, shows the buildings of the University of San Francisco as they stand today with the artist's idea of how this great project will look. Side-Winding Snake Scares Salient Padre (Special to the FOGHORN by Catholic Indian Bureau Feature Service.) When one has a flat tire on a lonely desert road in the stillness of the night—that's bad. But if while changing tires one Is beset by a side-winder rattlesnake— that's worse. Such was the experience of Rev. Bonaventure Oblasser, O.F.M., who was visiting scattered Papago Indian homes of his mission. Driven off by shouts, threats, and gesticulations, the snake moved off in its "side-winder" manner. Upon relating this story to a Papago, "Will Rogers", the Indian replied: "He knew you were a padre and wanted to go to confession. He had probably just killed some one." Palace Hotel Sets Don-Bronco Night Another evening of gala entertainment is promised the University of San Francisco students by the Palace Hotel with its announcement that a special night will be held in conjunction with Santa Clara students following the Don-Bronco contest at Kezar December 3.

EL INITIATES First Annual Communion to Be Held An initiation to USF. Council No. 77, YMI, of Thomas Richardson, Charles Ewing and Joseph Campan was held on November 20. Extensive plans are under way for several important social events to formally welcome the new council into the YMI, among which are an initiation party under the direction of the board of managers, and a social honoring the championship USF basketball team. Early next year the organization will hold its first annual communion in a body at St. Ignatius church. It is urged that all students eligible to join place their applications with any of the contact committee, so they may be accepted before the closing of the charter. Night Commerce Group Has Dinner Amidst that old Italian atmosphere of the Fior d'ltalia restaurant, twenty-six members of the evening commerce division of San Francisco University gathered in their semi-annual dinner last Wednesday evening. Master of ceremonies was Charles Eagan, who handled all arrangements. Assisting on the committee were J. Murray Van- dall, Marin Matosich, Bill Murphy and Joseph McElligott. During the course of the evening Milton Peyre demonstrated his skill on the piano and Joseph Brousseau aired his vocal talent. Then all the boys joined in the Victory song. Fifteen Acres of Cemetery Will Be Deeded to University Feud Spirit High As Juniors Defy Seniors In Monday Grid Test Tou Can't Win' Is Game Motto Latent talent on the junior and senior teams has been discovered during this past week of intensive practice. Senior Coach "Mickey" McStocker has discovered an "all end"—James Martin Maclnnis. "I have," said McStocker, "eight men so fast I would like to play only eight; others would get their corns stepped on." Touchdown Play "We expect little trouble and we have decided to win the game on the second play, which will undoubtedly be a touchdown play," said McStocker. Bob "Slipper" Little, coach of the junior squad, said: "We will use a three-unit backfield consisting of speed, power and show. The seniors haven't a chance against our younger, more peppy non-rheumatic boys who are going out on that field to play for all they're worth and win for '35." Little went on to say: "We are prepared to stop that "little" second touchdown play using neither the Warner nor, the Notre Dame system. If the varsity couldn't learn the Warner system in two years, how do you expect my men to learn it in two weeks?" Deception Stressed As a parting shot to the FOGHORN reporter, McStocker said: "Deception will be stressed by the seniors. Inflations, deflations, and elevations will be used by my men." When the final arrangements for the Masonic cemetery deed transfer will have been complete before the end of the year, the plan and hope of the USF board of trustees for a "Greater University of San Francisco" will be partially realized. "The University of San Francisco is almost certain to receive the deed of the lands adjoining the present university grounds before the first of the year," said President Rev. William I. Lonergan, S.J., last Tuesday. This was in correction of a statement in a downtown newspaper. The exact terms of the sale have not been decided upon by the trustees. Land totaling fifteen acres, to the south of an imaginary projection of Golden Gate avenue, will be transferred to the university outright upon completion of the sale. An option to the remainder of the cemetery, thirteen acres, will be given to the university upon completion of the sale. The funds for this purchase were raided in 1930 by the San Francisco Development association drive with the slogan, "Invest in Youth". Before absolute possession of the land can be obtained it is necessary that the Cemetery association open and remove the bodies from the graves. Some time will be required to accomplish the removals. The Cemetery association now owns twenty-eight acres. When the purchase is made and when the option is taken up the university will be in possession of the whole property now bounded by Turk street, Masonic avenue, Fulton street, and Parker avenue, with the exception of the block on Fulton street near Masonic avenue, which is owned by private individuals. Kappa Alpha Phi Newest Society Aims For Youth And Progress Youth and progress are charac teristic of Kappa Alpha Phi, the lower division economics honor society. Although founded only a year ago this month, Kappa Alpha Phi has become probably the most active of all the university societies. Mayor Rossi, John J. O'Toole, Gerald O'Gara, Prof. Diebels, Carl G. Wakefield, Arthur M. Brown and Chester Rowell are prominent San Franciscans who have been presented to the student body under the auspices of the society. These lectures by prominent speakers are given monthly. Topics discussed are limited to current and popular interest. All are, of course, invited to the lectures, Group Advances Rapidly Under Leadership of Horgan which are held during the noon hour in room D-2. Kappa Alpha Phi has performed a great service by the purchase of a number of typewriters and calculating machines, which have been placed at the disposal of the members of the accounting department. Because of its service to the university, the society claims to be the most active group of the institution. Progress and spirit are the watchwords and keynote of all its activities. While other groups may be as progressive, none are of such great service to the student body in general. The officers of Kappa Alpha Phi are: John Horgan, president; Joe Margucci, vice-president, and Edward McGuire, secretary-treasurer. Prof. Henry J. Strickroth of the economics department acts as moderator. When not presenting a prominent San Franciscan, Reno Conti, Bill Donovan, Edmond Cassou, Martin Morley, Rudy Rauh, Walter Swanson, Paul Thompson, Willis Parker, Henry Rooney, Bob Grafe, Emmett Ward, Roscoe Shaw and Rinaldo Guinasso hold a business meeting under the direction of their officers. At these twice- monthly meetings some member (Continued on Page 4) STANFORD-USF IN DUM DEBATE Teams Meet in Hall and at Palo Alto Paint Daubing Desecration of Monument Ires '34 Men VOW VENGEANCE Thursday night two teams from the varsity forensic squad debated representatives of Stanford university on the question, Resolved: that Communism is a greater men- nace to the United States than Despotism. In the University Little Theatre Vincent Fallon, Doug Knowles and James Maclnnis met one Stanford men's team. On the Stanford campus Vin Fallon, Pat Horgan and Bill Ferdon debated. The topic proved to be an interesting one not only because of the current interest in the question, but also because of the unique manner of wording the question. No decisions were rendered. Heavy Practice Conditions McStocker-Little Coached Squads Only three more days to wait! These are the six words uppermost in the minds of every undergraduate, as the senior class awoke this morning to find that the Languorous Lilies of the junior class had desecrated the seniors' dearly prized sepulcher in the near-by cemetery with the hated numerals of '35. As students attending eight o'clock classes rubbed their eyes and squinted out cemeteryward windows, this was the first sight that greeted them. The marble rostrum of the sepulcher was completely smeared with green paint in the lettering '35! The seniors have vowed that this affront shall not pass unavenged. Want Scrimmage Coaches Francis B. McStocker and Robert E. Little of the respective senior and junior squads, yesterday substituted light workouts in place of the heavy scrimmaging which has been going on all week, and the men growled. "We want scrimmage!" they shouted. Coaches Spud Lewis and Dallas Marvil withdrew in discretion and refused to allow these madmen to be pitted against the USF varsity. "We must be careful to avoid all injuries," affirmed Dallas Marvil with a firm toss of his handsome head. So, the time: 2:00 p.m. Monday, November 27. The place: USF field at Turk and Parker. The game: '34 vs. '35 in a reincarnation of the most thrilling brawl ever held under USF auspices. And the probahle line-ups and weights of the players: SENIORS JUNIORS J. Maclnnis l.K It C. McKlm M.

Boxers and Collie Players On S. C. Game Night Rally Entertainment for the Santa Clara game night rally to be held Friday, November 3 0, in College hall will include a wide variety of events to include boxing bouts, vocalists, skits, songs, yells and pep talks. Most Complete Possible Louis Batmale, vice-president, has scoured the campus for entertainers and speakers and announces that the most complete rally program possible has been arranged. Boxing Coach George Malley is to pit his gladiators of the squared circle against members of the Santa Clara boxing team. Malley expects his squad to make a good showing although many of his aces have left school. Many who are to join the team will not be out until after the grid season. Collie Players Return The return of the Collie Players in an amusing skit is to be an added attraction. This group, once hailed as the most popular rally entertainers of the college, ceased activity for over a year. Deb O'Connor of St. Ignatius high school and a mystery man who claims magical prowess are included among other entertainers. Speakers Speakers for the rally are to be Coaches "Spud" Lewis, George Malley, Wallace Cameron and Frank Zanazzi. The band and Glee club quartet are to furnish the musical entertainment. Yell Leader Leo Murphy expects to try out some of the new fight songs which are being considered. The USF "Fight" song having become common property, a change is advocated. Aviation Talk Hall Wed, 10:50 Captain W. T. Cambell, holder of the present world's altitude record for autoglros, and commander of Love field, Dallas, Texas, during the war, will address the student body at a general meeting on Wednesday, the 29th, at 10:50 a.m. His subject will be "The Auto- giro". Using scale models to illustrate his talk, Capt. Cambell discusses the evolution of flying from Greek mythology until the present day; the theory of flight; and the theory of auto- rotation. This talk has been presented in many of the leading universities and colleges in the country and has been acclaimed as most interesting.

EL INITIATES First Annual Communion to Be Held An initiation to USF. Council No. 77, YMI, of Thomas Richardson, Charles Ewing and Joseph Campan was held on November 20. Extensive plans are under way for several important social events to formally welcome the new council into the YMI, among which are an initiation party under the direction of the board of managers, and a social honoring the championship USF basketball team. Early next year the organization will hold its first annual communion in a body at St. Ignatius church. It is urged that all students eligible to join place their applications with any of the contact committee, so they may be accepted before the closing of the charter. Night Commerce Group Has Dinner Amidst that old Italian atmosphere of the Fior d'ltalia restaurant, twenty-six members of the evening commerce division of San Francisco University gathered in their semi-annual dinner last Wednesday evening. Master of ceremonies was Charles Eagan, who handled all arrangements. Assisting on the committee were J. Murray Van- dall, Marin Matosich, Bill Murphy and Joseph McElligott. During the course of the evening Milton Peyre demonstrated his skill on the piano and Joseph Brousseau aired his vocal talent. Then all the boys joined in the Victory song. Fifteen Acres of Cemetery Will Be Deeded to University Feud Spirit High As Juniors Defy Seniors In Monday Grid Test Tou Can't Win' Is Game Motto Latent talent on the junior and senior teams has been discovered during this past week of intensive practice. Senior Coach "Mickey" McStocker has discovered an "all end"—James Martin Maclnnis. "I have," said McStocker, "eight men so fast I would like to play only eight; others would get their corns stepped on." Touchdown Play "We expect little trouble and we have decided to win the game on the second play, which will undoubtedly be a touchdown play," said McStocker. Bob "Slipper" Little, coach of the junior squad, said: "We will use a three-unit backfield consisting of speed, power and show. The seniors haven't a chance against our younger, more peppy non-rheumatic boys who are going out on that field to play for all they're worth and win for '35." Little went on to say: "We are prepared to stop that "little" second touchdown play using neither the Warner nor, the Notre Dame system. If the varsity couldn't learn the Warner system in two years, how do you expect my men to learn it in two weeks?" Deception Stressed As a parting shot to the FOGHORN reporter, McStocker said: "Deception will be stressed by the seniors. Inflations, deflations, and elevations will be used by my men." When the final arrangements for the Masonic cemetery deed transfer will have been complete before the end of the year, the plan and hope of the USF board of trustees for a "Greater University of San Francisco" will be partially realized. "The University of San Francisco is almost certain to receive the deed of the lands adjoining the present university grounds before the first of the year," said President Rev. William I. Lonergan, S.J., last Tuesday. This was in correction of a statement in a downtown newspaper. The exact terms of the sale have not been decided upon by the trustees. Land totaling fifteen acres, to the south of an imaginary projection of Golden Gate avenue, will be transferred to the university outright upon completion of the sale. An option to the remainder of the cemetery, thirteen acres, will be given to the university upon completion of the sale. The funds for this purchase were raided in 1930 by the San Francisco Development association drive with the slogan, "Invest in Youth". Before absolute possession of the land can be obtained it is necessary that the Cemetery association open and remove the bodies from the graves. Some time will be required to accomplish the removals. The Cemetery association now owns twenty-eight acres. When the purchase is made and when the option is taken up the university will be in possession of the whole property now bounded by Turk street, Masonic avenue, Fulton street, and Parker avenue, with the exception of the block on Fulton street near Masonic avenue, which is owned by private individuals. Kappa Alpha Phi Newest Society Aims For Youth And Progress Youth and progress are charac teristic of Kappa Alpha Phi, the lower division economics honor society. Although founded only a year ago this month, Kappa Alpha Phi has become probably the most active of all the university societies. Mayor Rossi, John J. O'Toole, Gerald O'Gara, Prof. Diebels, Carl G. Wakefield, Arthur M. Brown and Chester Rowell are prominent San Franciscans who have been presented to the student body under the auspices of the society. These lectures by prominent speakers are given monthly. Topics discussed are limited to current and popular interest. All are, of course, invited to the lectures, Group Advances Rapidly Under Leadership of Horgan which are held during the noon hour in room D-2. Kappa Alpha Phi has performed a great service by the purchase of a number of typewriters and calculating machines, which have been placed at the disposal of the members of the accounting department. Because of its service to the university, the society claims to be the most active group of the institution. Progress and spirit are the watchwords and keynote of all its activities. While other groups may be as progressive, none are of such great service to the student body in general. The officers of Kappa Alpha Phi are: John Horgan, president; Joe Margucci, vice-president, and Edward McGuire, secretary-treasurer. Prof. Henry J. Strickroth of the economics department acts as moderator. When not presenting a prominent San Franciscan, Reno Conti, Bill Donovan, Edmond Cassou, Martin Morley, Rudy Rauh, Walter Swanson, Paul Thompson, Willis Parker, Henry Rooney, Bob Grafe, Emmett Ward, Roscoe Shaw and Rinaldo Guinasso hold a business meeting under the direction of their officers. At these twice- monthly meetings some member (Continued on Page 4) STANFORD-USF IN DUM DEBATE Teams Meet in Hall and at Palo Alto Paint Daubing Desecration of Monument Ires '34 Men VOW VENGEANCE Thursday night two teams from the varsity forensic squad debated representatives of Stanford university on the question, Resolved: that Communism is a greater men- nace to the United States than Despotism. In the University Little Theatre Vincent Fallon, Doug Knowles and James Maclnnis met one Stanford men's team. On the Stanford campus Vin Fallon, Pat Horgan and Bill Ferdon debated. The topic proved to be an interesting one not only because of the current interest in the question, but also because of the unique manner of wording the question. No decisions were rendered. Heavy Practice Conditions McStocker-Little Coached Squads Only three more days to wait! These are the six words uppermost in the minds of every undergraduate, as the senior class awoke this morning to find that the Languorous Lilies of the junior class had desecrated the seniors' dearly prized sepulcher in the near-by cemetery with the hated numerals of '35. As students attending eight o'clock classes rubbed their eyes and squinted out cemeteryward windows, this was the first sight that greeted them. The marble rostrum of the sepulcher was completely smeared with green paint in the lettering '35! The seniors have vowed that this affront shall not pass unavenged. Want Scrimmage Coaches Francis B. McStocker and Robert E. Little of the respective senior and junior squads, yesterday substituted light workouts in place of the heavy scrimmaging which has been going on all week, and the men growled. "We want scrimmage!" they shouted. Coaches Spud Lewis and Dallas Marvil withdrew in discretion and refused to allow these madmen to be pitted against the USF varsity. "We must be careful to avoid all injuries," affirmed Dallas Marvil with a firm toss of his handsome head. So, the time: 2:00 p.m. Monday, November 27. The place: USF field at Turk and Parker. The game: '34 vs. '35 in a reincarnation of the most thrilling brawl ever held under USF auspices. And the probahle line-ups and weights of the players: SENIORS JUNIORS J. Maclnnis l.K It C. McKlm M.

St. Am't 201 Wonder Team And, as an afterthought, let it be noted that five members of the senior team—Harley, Moore, Wiesinger, Rhode, and Hay—were teammates on the freshman wonder team of 1930, which was beaten 68 to 12 by TonyDonadio and Sacramento Junior college, in what stands as the highest score ever run up against a USF team in the annals of modern football. Boxers and Collie Players On S. C. Game Night Rally Entertainment for the Santa Clara game night rally to be held Friday, November 3 0, in College hall will include a wide variety of events to include boxing bouts, vocalists, skits, songs, yells and pep talks. Most Complete Possible Louis Batmale, vice-president, has scoured the campus for entertainers and speakers and announces that the most complete rally program possible has been arranged. Boxing Coach George Malley is to pit his gladiators of the squared circle against members of the Santa Clara boxing team. Malley expects his squad to make a good showing although many of his aces have left school. Many who are to join the team will not be out until after the grid season. Collie Players Return The return of the Collie Players in an amusing skit is to be an added attraction. This group, once hailed as the most popular rally entertainers of the college, ceased activity for over a year. Deb O'Connor of St. Ignatius high school and a mystery man who claims magical prowess are included among other entertainers. Speakers Speakers for the rally are to be Coaches "Spud" Lewis, George Malley, Wallace Cameron and Frank Zanazzi. The band and Glee club quartet are to furnish the musical entertainment. Yell Leader Leo Murphy expects to try out some of the new fight songs which are being considered. The USF "Fight" song having become common property, a change is advocated. Aviation Talk Hall Wed, 10:50 Captain W. T. Cambell, holder of the present world's altitude record for autoglros, and commander of Love field, Dallas, Texas, during the war, will address the student body at a general meeting on Wednesday, the 29th, at 10:50 a.m. His subject will be "The Auto- giro". Using scale models to illustrate his talk, Capt. Cambell discusses the evolution of flying from Greek mythology until the present day; the theory of flight; and the theory of auto- rotation. This talk has been presented in many of the leading universities and colleges in the country and has been acclaimed as most interesting. |
