BENEDICTINE EDUCATORS TO ASSEMBLE AT ST. JOHN'S
From June 30 to July 2 St. John's is to be host to the National Benedictine Educational Association. Representatives from the various schools conducted by Benedictines will convene here after the sessions of the Catholic Educational Association, which this year is convening in St. Paul.
Eighteen schools in the United States are under Benedictine auspices.
ATHLETIC CONFERENCE
MEETS AT ST. OLAF
On May 27 a meeting of the Minnesota Inter-collegiate Athletic Conference was held at St. Olaf, Northfield, Minnesota.
Father Walter and Mr. Benda, coach, represented St. John's.
The faculty representatives restated the interpretation of the old eligibility rule, now allowing eight semesters of competition. Athletes, other than graduates, transferring from State Teachers colleges must abide by the one semester rule.
An old law now to be enforced is the scholastic eligibility rule, which demands an average grade of C to be maintained in six and a grade of D in the same number of hours of work.
MINN. CONFERENCE HOLDS FIRST GOLF TOURNAMENT
Last Thursday four golfers from St. John's entered the lists of the first intercollegiate tournament of the Minnesota Athletic Conference in Highland Park in St. Paul. Anderson of St. Thomas shot 162 for the lowest individual score; Benson of Hamline and Berry and Gaff-ney of St. Thomas were second with 165. Bateman shot 177 to lead the St. John's team. Besides Bateman, Sonsolla, O'Malley, and Wright represented St. John's.
The team scores which represented the combined scores of the team members were headed by Hamline with 678. St. Thomas had 685, St. Olaf 684, St. Mary's 704, St. John's 759, Macalester 756, and Augsburg 792.
PAMPHLETS HOLD THEIR
OWN DESPITE DEPRESSION
Despite the let-up in many another venture, the pamphlets have managed to keep their usual interest throughout the scholastic year 1932-1933. The keen interest they aroused is chiefly due to the superb quality that has come to the fore in recent years, material that is of vital interest to youth of today. During the past year over 7,000 were purchased, thus bringing the sum total during the past four years to 44,000. That the interest is not letting up can be gleaned by the sales during the past two months of April and May, when $67 and $52 worth of pamphlets were sold. Among the latest ones on display are "Priest of a Doubting Flock," by Chetwood, "Revolt against Heaven" by Daniel Lord, "Self Improvement" from the Irish Messenger, and "The Holy Year" by Lodge Durran.

tection of her loving shelter. But, go he must. As a last token of devoted interest and sincere desire that he prosper, and keep the faith, Alma Mater re-enacts, for the seventy-sixth time, the exercise of commencement day.
The academic procession will form at 2:15 at the main entrance to the school. The College Preparatory graduates will form the first contingent of the procession. Arrayed in the black caps and gowns of the graduate, the college seniors follow next. The rear of the procession is brought up by the faculty. The march from the main building will cross the walk to the auditorium doors and down the center aisle. The double column will spread at the front of the aisle and enter the stage proscenium from the wings. As soon as all are seated, the exercises will begin.
The Rt. Rev. Alcuin Deutsch, O.S.B., President, will preside at the conferring of degrees, diplomas, and medals. He likewise will introduce the commencement speaker, William A. O'Brien, M.D., associate professor of Pathology and Preventive Medicine at the University of Minnesota.
John J. Zaic has been designated valedictorian for the College, and Robert M. Devitt for the College Preparatory.

BAHAMA ISLANDS MISSIONS RECEIVE USED PAMPHLETS
The final collection of pamphlets for this school year is being taken up for the Bahama and the Indian Missions. As a result of the last contributions the Reverend Chaplain sent thirty-two pounds, more than six hundred pamphlets, to the Bahama Islands missionaries. Here the reading matter is brought to those who are desirous of obtaining a wider scope of Catholic knowledge.
