Receives Personal Message of Commendation from Sovereign Pontiff on Occasion of Final Vows — President Creeden Gives Dinner in Honor of Event —Deans of Various Schools of University Invited Guests.

Personal messages from Pope Pius XI and the general of the Society of Jesus in Rome, extolling the service "rendered to humanity" by the Reverend Edmund A. Walsh, S. J., were made public at the Hilltop last Saturday upon the occasion of exercises incidental to the final vows taken by the distinguished Jesuit.

The last solemn vows in the Jesuit Or- der are usually pronounced after eigh- teen years in the priesthood, but owing to the long absence of Father Walsh, his vows were delayed until now Father Walsh recently returned to Georgetown University after two years in Russia, where he was a member of the American Relief Mission and later was director of the Papal Relief Mission.

PATHFINDER CLUB HEARS DR. LA PLACE

Distinguished Philadelphia Sur- geon Lectures on "The Medi- cal Profession"—Gives Very Enlightening and Entertaining Discourse.

THE H O Y A

The regular weekly meeting of the Pathfinders' Club was held last Sunday at 7 o'clock in the Hirst Library. The subject of the evening's lecture was "The Medical Profession" and the lecturer, no less distinguished a person than Dr. Ernest Laplace, widely known Philadel- phia surgeon and one of the regents of Georgetown University. Dr. Laplace will be remembered for his lecture last year on "Pasteur," of whom he was for two years a pupil. He was recently made commander of the Legion of Honor by the French government for his activities in behalf of the Pasteur Centenary Cele- bration in Philadelphia.

Dr. Laplace discussed medicine from may angles, including its activities, its opportunities as a profession, and its hon- orable character. He emphasized that it is not remunerative financially, but that aside from the priesthood, there is no profession that reaps greater remunera- tion in the satisfaction of having done good. "It is the Biblical story of the Good Samaritan," said the doctor. "When one is sick and unfortunate, it is the doctor who heals and comforts him. Of Christ's early life the Bible said only that He went about doing good. Therein medicine is truly Christlike, for that is the doctor's life, to go about doing good. The medical profession is above all al- truistic. * * * If you find pleasure in walking the wards of the hospital, bring- ing hope to the dying, and life to the

afflicted, then go to the medical school, for you are chosen." Dr. Laplace re- viewed briefly the history of medicine from antiquity to the time of Pasteur whose discoveries, he pointed out, revolu- tionized biological science. "The effi- ciency and possibilities of medicine and surgery today," he said, "may be at- tributed entirely to Pasteur, who is with- out any doubt the world's greatest ben- efactor." He cited Pasteur as the highest example of the scientist, who without any thought of remuneration, devoted all his energies to his work in his laboratory. And his self sacrifice was duly rewarded in the honors and pension given him by the government. Which, however, was of small account to a man whose greatest reward was the satisfaction of having done good to humanity.

One thought which in particular im- pressed a most interested audience was Dr. Laplace's statement that within a century all disease will be abolished by preventive medicine except those ills to which man deliberately exposes him- self, and euthanasia will be normally realized. "Then, just as the sun sinks quietly and beautifully to rest, so in old age will man without pain or discomfort pass peacefully to another life." After the lecture, Dr. Laplace answered ques- tions by the members of the club, and in- cidentally explained how the success of osteopathy and allied practices was ac- complished through the reflex action of pressure on the spinal ganglia. "Osteo- pathy as such will cease to exist," he said, "when the medical profession learns to appreciate such benefits as it possesses and employs them in a scientific manner where applicable in orthodox medicine."

An enthusiastic "Hoya" was given Dr. Laplace by the members of the club for a very enlightening as well as entertain- ing discourse.

Undoubtedly Selvin's music will be the determining factor in making the party a success for this youthful orchestra im- presario whose meteoric career reads like the celebrated Dick Whittington episode will prove to Georgetown the reason for his widely recognized success in music annals.

Favors Selected. The choice of favors has been a mat-

ter of special concern to the class of '24, and the selection of the souvenirs was made by the class. The E. A. Wright Company of Philadelphia accepted the order for the manufacture of writing compacts and card cases. The ladies' favor in the compact should meet with popular approval because of its novel and original character. The idea of obtaining such a selection was considered at a meet- ing of the entire class. The cost of the favors was in excess of the usual budget and consequently necessitated the sub- scription being raised to eleven dollars.

Selvin to Give Dinner Dance. Mr. Selvin and his orchestra will be

host to a dinner dance at Wardman Park Hotel on the evening of May 10 and ef- forts are now being made by the Seniors to have him entertain at a tea dance on the afternoon of the 10th from the hours of 4 till 7. But for the time being the committee will devote all its efforts to the furthering of the program on the ar- rangements for the Prom. Tickets will be placed on sale shortly before the Eas- ter holidays and they may be secured from any member of the committee.

derneath Key Bridge since THE HOYA brought to the attention of the College the need of concerted and immediate ac- tion, if certain desired changes were to be made on the Hilltop.

We appealed to the Student Council to take action and recommend the not unwelcomed renovations in certain de- partments. We urged and suggested practical substitutions that would do away with such evils as the following.

An eminent judge from the Middle West, visiting in the city, telephoned a Senior an invitation to a function not of a purely social nature. The latter re- ceived the message exactly 24 hours later. A telegram sent from New York at 10:30 A. M., reached a student's hands at 6 :30 P. M., too late to serve its important purpose. A Special Delivery letter bear- ing the pos't-mark of 12 P. M., was re- ceived a full 19 hours later. None of these messages were delivered at the rooms of the particular unfortunates.

And these are neither isolated nor unique instances.

The authorities will not act unless the students desire such action. The Student Council "represents" the undergraduate body. Ergo—

Remarkable Words.

"The newspapers have said the people are in a state of hysteria over the Wash- ington scandals. I tell you they are really in a state of coma."—Mr. Frank A. Van- derlip.

CONGRATULATORY. The advance in the rating of the

Georgetown School of Law by the American Bar Association is a fitting recognition of the progress being made by that department of the University. Handicapped by the lack of adequate buildings, the untiring efforts of its Dean anil faculty, the whole-hearted generos- ity of many alumni, and the energetic spirit of its students have served to carry it to its present position.

Beginning next autumn, not less than two years academic work will be required for entrance. With this and some slight changes of class hours effected, the Bar Association will award the school a Class A rating.

The successful completion of the En- dowment Campaign will provide for new buildings of a type and size commensurate

, with the rapid growth that has marked its advance in the past few years.

The University at large is proud of the sister school, the Law School of Georgetown.

THE HOYA extends the most hearty congratulations in behalf of the student body to the Rev. Ed- mund A. Walsh, S. J., on the occa- sion of the taking of his final vows in the priesthood.

THE GLEE CLUB CONCERT. In the midst of every Lent, George-

town attends a concert given by those in the University who have a love for music. The Glee Club has been in existence many years now and has persevered through seasons of varying successes. Many cir- cumstances, chiefly extrinsic, have com- bined to limit its activities.

The-club's first aim is to prepare and present a concert to be given on Mi-Car- eme Sunday, for the benefit of the Ath- letic Association. This ambition has al- ways been realized, contributing a wel- come sum to the treasury of the "A. A."

There have been a few from year to year who have desired and labored for more than this lone activity. There have been those who recognized in the Glee Club a worthy medium through which much might be accomplished; they vision- cd a Georgetown representation on the concert stages in many cities, making tours much as undergraduates of other institutions do. bringing to scattered alum- ni the melodious enthusiasm of their col- lege days ; they planned the elevation of tlie Club to its becoming place as George- town's Glee Club.

With the organization of a great num- ber of new Georgetown Clubs all over the country in conjunction with the En- dowment Drive has come the opportu- nity to obtain the support of the alumni in endeavoring to realize this hope. If those worthy men now at the helm will actively commence the work, it will not be long before the success of last Sunday is repeated many times over before au- diences fully as appreciative.

ON OTHER CAMPUSES. Fordhatn University recently staged

very successfully her annual one-act play contest. Six plays that were written and produced solely by students contested for the honor of being chosen as the best place.

It is reported that William Sides, the former child-prodigy, who could read when he was two years, and who gradu- ated from Harvard when only eleven years of age, now works at an adding machine for twenty-three dollars a week.

(Setttno acquainted with 1924

JOHN T. RICE. While .sleighing through the beautiful

spring days.that the Republican admin- istration has so carelessly provided, the representative of the HOYA saw John Rice laconically picking purple petunias where the icicles hung thickest. As the editor needs one of these every week, no matter whether it is spring or just a snow storm called by its ordinary name, the reporter called for his pipe, his pad and overcoats three.

Like John D. Rockefeller, John T. Rice thinks there's money in the oil busi- nesc and is laying plans which lead to that industry, at least he has a card which gains entrance to the gallery of the Sen- ate and is trying to obtain one which will allow him to enter the committee rooms. Mr. Rice, however, was not interviewed concerning this phase of politics. He was questioned regarding the use of the Blimp as a receiving ship for recruits to the Naval Aviation. John does not be- lieve in the Bl.mp, from a purely subjec- tive standpoint. "It's all right in its way," says John, "but that is a way away from me."

John maintains an apartment in the lower recesses of the North Building. It was to this tastefully furnished place that John and the reporter repaired, only to find Andy Casey asleep. There was a rumor that Andy could sleep for 453 hours at a time, but John says as far as he knows Andy has never slept more than 102 hours without a meal. John should know, as he sometimes paces Andy for the first few hundred hours, but tires easily.

But to return to the interview: it seemed that John had many things to say, and it's a shame that the reporter's memory fails. One point remains sharply in his mind, however; it concerned de- bating. Mr. Rice believes in left handed gestures and in order to make them

graceful he seeks the collaboration of Air. Ted Shawn, who designs all of John's left hand gestures. Beyond this John achieves his effects without the aid of Mineralava or any other artificial aids and devices.

Just as the interview was waxing elo- quent Andy awakened and began shouting loudly for crushed grape fruit. This disturbed us no little bit, and before Andy could be quieted it was time for dinner. At a cozy corner table in the Connecti- cut, surrounded by the smiles of the Six Mikes, the interview was continued. It seems arrangements are being completed to equip every room in the North BuilcP- ing with a radio receiving set. All of these sets will be tuned at one central control board in order to maintain uni- formity of program throughout the en- tire institution. Those who are taking Law will have a special control board, in order to tune in on the Law Lectures, and thus receive the full benefits of the course without exposing themselves to the rigors of a trip to town in the shades of the rapidly falling evening. The study hall has not been included in the ar- rangements and hence there is opposition from a few of the more daring of the class.

The interview was conducted under the stress of insufficient time, as both Mr. Rice and the reporter were under the in- fluence of previous engagements. John was supposed to go downtown to take Andy to a movie, and the reporter had to return to school to punctuate an article for YE DOMESDAY BOOKE (price six dollars net, see J. J. Drumn about your subscription at once. [Advertise- ment] ).

So John left hurriedly, leaving the re- porter to sign both checks, which the re- porter did, and hereby not.fies the Editor and Business Manager in a public manner that the expense account will be padded.

PUERTA DE SANTA MARIA. Leaving Seville by the light of harvest

moon on the good steamer Colombo, we sailed down the Guadalquivir to Puerta Santa Maria, a small port on the Mediter- reanean. We were amused at the great number of little fishing boats that set out to make the day's catch of fish for the canning factories. It was not yet seven o'clock when we arrived at the little railroad station, the streets were busy and there was quite a crowd wait- ing. We inquired to find out where all the workmen were going and were told that there was a large canning fac- tory at Sanlucar. As guests of the own- er, we were fortunate in being invited to visit it and see the process by which sardines are canned. About ten o'clock we returned to Puerta Santa Maria and had breakfast in El Parque de Calderon; it consisting of samples from the can- nery and pan and fruit purchased from booth in the market. Eleven o'clock found us once again in one of the stuffy little coaches of a Spanish train, headed for Cadiz. The route seemed to be ever one continuous swamp or low land; here and there it was dotted with many reser- voirs for the evaporating of salt. The reservoirs were filled with water from the ocean and the sun evaporated the water leaving the salt on the bottom; it was then loaded into wagons and hauled into Cadiz for refining. After numerous de- lays and much switching, we arrived at the station of Cadiz.

After we had checked our baggage Barcelona, we hired a guide "to sho' us to a streets we were imp

We pass! ed wagon after wagon and truck after truck loaded with merchandise being transferred from wharves to warehouses, or being loaded on trains for shipment to the interior. We were pleased to notj the great amount of American manufaB hiring plants In Cadiz we had our first experience with Spanish crookdom. The affable proprietor of the Continental Ho- tel told us that our highest lodging would be thirty pesetas, but when the time came I to settle in his suave way he told US j forty pesetas, he also informed us that I we would have to be vaccinated before I we could enter Tangier. He propos^B to have one of his medical friends vac- I cinate us for fifty pesetas'. Needless tO/l say, we paid only thirty pesetas for our I lodging and as for vaccination, we put • him off in a nice way.

In the evening, we listened to a band I concert in the Plaza de Isabel II, and I the Plaza de Constitution. We visited [ the Iglesis de San Antonio, the Ayunta I Minento, and attended a performance in I the Gran Teater. We arose very early I and boarded a trans-Mediterranean I steamer for Tangier.

Mr. Bancroft Hill Talks on "Harbor Improvements"

Through the good offices of Mr. Hu- bert Gruber, lecturer in the course in "Ports and Terminals," arrangements were made to have Mr. Bancroft Hill, harbor engineer of the Port of Baltimore, address the class Tuesday evening,_ April 1, 1924, at 8:20 P. M., on the subject of "Harbor Improvements." Mr. Hill, who is also president of the Harbor Board, laid special stress on the physical aspects of harbor improvements, discussing the various types of piers, their construction and railroad connection. The lecture was illustrated with lantern slides.

The comet came back The great comet that was seen by William of Normandy returned to our skies in 1910 on its eleventh visit since the Conquest. Astronomers knew when it would appear, and the exact spot in the sky where it would first be visible.

Edmund Halley's mathematical calcula- tion of the great orbit of this 76-year vis- itor—his scientific proof that comets are part of our solar system—was a brilliant application of the then unpublished Prin- cipia of his friend Sir Isaac Newton.

The laws of motion that Newton and Halley proved to govern the movements of a comet are used by scientists in the Research Laboratories of the General Elec- tric Company to determine the orbit of electrons in vacuum tubes.

GEORGETOWN EASILY DEFEATS BOWDOIN

First Game of Season Results in a 26 to 1 Victory—Baseball Squad Gets Away to Fast Start on Varsity Field.

The Georgetown University baseball nine got under way for its first game of the season last Monday afternoon, when they smothered Bowdoin College, of Maine, by a score of 26 to 1. The Hilltopper field was the scene of the heavy snow under. Not once during the entire game did the visiting team show anything in the pill tossing game as that compared to the Blue and Gray's splen- did showing.

Coach John O'Reilly started the heavy twirling southpaw, Homer Jenkins on the mound. The Bowdoin lads failed to con- nect in any manner with the heaved balls of the Hilltop left hander. Time and again the opposing batters endeavored to stand and face the on-racing pill, but the pace was too fast for them. It was a new brand of ball playing these lads that travelled from Maine faced.

After the sixth frame, Coach O'Reilly took out some of his first string men and the seventh inning saw Gillespie and Mc- Gowan replacing Jenkins and Sukerforth. Gillespie held the visitors until the eighth, when they scored a run. It was their only counter during the entire game.

JOHN J. POWERS, '26 SPEAKS ON "NITRATES"

At the regular bi-monthly meeting of the Chemical Society, on last Tuesday night, the members were given a lecture on "Nitrates," by John J. Powers, Sec- retary of the Society. The subject of the evening proved to be of much interest in its various aspects. Analysing the huge field this subject covers the speaker of the evening pointed out the many phases and uses of this essential chemical in the role of every-day life to man.

Mr. Powers, after a lengthy discussion, of the means, locations and endeavors to secure the much desired nitrates by man— augmented his speech by demonstrating by means of slides the various chemical means applied in extracting the chemical. He also presented to the students of the chemical department, the present situation as it now exists at Muscle Shoals, and of the great advantage the securing of this place would be to the developing world of chemistry at the present day. Point- ing out the various things of importance the collocation of nitrogen atoms plays in the human body, in time of war and in time of peace to nations. Mr. Powers concluded his lecture by showing slides of the nitrate chemicals in the process of manufacture and utilization.

RIFLE TEAM LOSES TO JOHNS HOPKINS

Dual Shoulder to Shoulder Match Results in Defeat for G. U.— Johns Ho.pkins Scores 1781 Against 1755 for Georgetown.

The Rifle Team met defeat in the dual shoulder to shoulder match with Johns Hopkins at Baltimore, last Saturday. The Hopkins team turned in a total of 1781, against 1755 for Georgetown. Allemand, of Hopkins, was high man in the match with a score of 365, while Reed and Doran tied for second place with 363. This is the second shoulder to shoulder match Georgetown has been in this year, and it is hoped that more competitions of this kind can be arranged next season.

The first team took fifth place in the N. R. A. Intercollegiate Match with a total of 2,888 out of 3,000. This match was won by Georgetown last year, and by Norwich the year before. The sec- ond team rated fifteenth with a total of 2,832.

The results of the match with M. I. T. were: M. I. T. 500, Georgetown 496. This match was fired in the prone posi- tion. McDonough and Doyle turned in possibles in this match.

The Intercollegiate R. O. T. C. match is being fired this week. Georgetown was one of the five teams picked to rep- resent the Third Corps in this match. This contest closes the indoor season for Georgetown, and it is expected the out- door team with the Springfield rifles will soon be under way.

DR. JOHN B. F00TE DELIVERS LECTURE

Mr. Douglas C. Miller* the professor of the courses in Modern Europe as an Export Field, and the European Seminar course in the School of Foreign Service of Georgetown University, has just re- turned from New York where he was one of the principal speakers at an im- portant meeting of the Italian Chamber of Commerce. There were a number of prominent speakers, including the Italian Ambassador. The proceedings were broadcasted by radio.

Professor of Pediatrics in the Georgetown University School of Medicine Talks on "Child Care as Reflected in Art and Archeology."

On Friday evening, March 29, a most interesting illustrated lecture on the sub- ject of "Child Care as Reflected in Art and Archeology" was delivered in Gas- ton Hall by John Foote, M. D., Profes- sor of Pediatrics in Georgetown Univer- sity, School of Medicine.

By way of introduction Dr. Foote re- marked that "the present time is pre- eminently the age of the child," and that therefore a discussion of the different methods of caring for children would by no means be amiss. He then launched into a lengthy discussion of the various means that had been employed in caring for the children from the time of pre- historic man to the present day.

Prior to the lecture, Rev. William T. Tallon, S. J., Dean of the College, intro- duced the speaker and announced that on April 4 Mr. Ralph A. Graves, A. B., as- sistant editor of The National Geographic Magazine, would deliver an illustrated lecture concerning "The West Coast of England."

Mttb the debaters

Philodemic. At the regular meeting of the Philo-

demic Society on March 25, the ques- tion, "Resolved, that the Volstead Act should be revised so as to permit the manufacture and sale of light wines and beers," was debated in such a manner that nothing but praise can be given to the speakers. Messrs. Donovan McCune and Esmond Murphy upheld the affirmative side of the question against Messrs. Ed- ward De Castro and William Kalt the negative. It was a splendid debate, very interesting throughout and showed ex- cellent preparation on the part of all the speakers. The affirmative side was re- warded the decision by the society, and Mr. McCune was elected the best speaker. Mr. Charles Clifford gave an excellent criticism of the debate.

Philonomosian. At the regular meeting of the Philo-

nomosian, held last Monday evening in the Philodemic Room, a most interesting debate was held. The question debated was, "Resolved, that the Norris plan for an earlier convening of Congress and an earlier inauguration of the President should be adopted. Messrs. Digney and Daly supported the affirmative of this question, while the negative was defended by Messrs. Lee and Doran. After a spirited rebuttal on the part of the nega- tive, that side was awarded the decision, and Mr. J. Digney was chosen as best speaker. With a few remarks on the evening's debate by the Rev. Moderator, the meeting was adjourned.

White. The White Debating Society Wednes-

day evening, March 26, for the first meet- ing under its new moderator, Mr. Comey, S. J., who takes the place of Mr. Bowhvis, S. J. Mr. Eustase, vice-president, expressed warm words of welcome to Mr. Comey and generous thanks to Mr. Bowhvis for his work in White.

The question for the regular debate was, Resolved: That the honor system, with a check, should be established in examinations at Georgetown. Mr. Ed- ward Cashman and Mr. Carbery O'Shea upheld the affirmative side while Mr. William Illig and Mr. Joseph Kinsella defended the negative. It was an inter- esting debate on a subject which is being discussed greatly around Georgetown of late, and the debaters reached the heart of the question. The affirmative side won the debate and Mr. Cashman was voted the best speaker. Mr. Clemens was elected best speaker in the extemporaneous de- bate.

Mr. Joseph White was elected into the Society.

"LITS."

. The regular meeting of Literary So- ciety was held in Room L. Mr. Ervin spoke on Jane Austen, the authoress of "Pride and Prejudice." Mr. Namack talked on "Sir Walter Scott, the King of Romanticists." A banquet committee was appointed, consisting of Mr. Bing- ham and Mr. Castillini, who are to com- plete arrangements for that function in the near future.
