Guards are working overtime to maintain the secrecy of sercet prac¬ tice. Managers lick their chops when these serving masses attempt to gain sight of the toiling, growing Lions, as they tear the earth in preparation for the coming season. Our pack will be unleashed Sept. 29, on the first meat of the year. This opening game will afford thrills galore, as the individuals of the largest Lion squad will fight for a berth on the first string.

F., is among the latest to arrive in the Faculty. He spent his scholastic days at Santa Clara. He returns to the West after six long years spent abroad and in the East in pursuit of higher learning. Father De Rop is visiting Loyola for some days. He may decide to remain with us, in which case he will be of great value to the stu¬ dents who are eager to acquire a knowledge of foreign languages. He speaks several languages very fluently. All are delighted to hear that Father Chiappa, the kind old spir¬ itual Father of all, is recuperating from his recent illnes?. Though confined to his bed for several months, during which time he. has been perilously near death’s door, he has regained sufficient strength to enable him to move about the house* in a wheel chair. We hope that we shall soon have the privi¬ lege of going to him for spiritual assistance and advice. Several of the Fathers spent their summer vacation in a profitable as well as delightful manner. Father Ralph took over the care of the parish church at Yreka, .Calif., to give the pastor an opportunity of gaining a much-needed rest. Father Cox did the same for the pastor of Chiloquin, Ore, Father says that Chiloquin means hunch¬ back in the Indian language. Dur¬ ing his stay in that town Father Fox staged “a vaudeville show and illustrated travelugue” for the bene¬ fit of the parish. He gave his fa¬ mous Passion Play pictures, and “Dr. Fox,” as he was advertised, made a great impression on the Indians, lumber-jacks, and sheep- herders who flocked to the enter¬ tainment from the whole country about that vicinity. It is interes- ing to note that there are in that Where are the St. Vincent’s boys of yesteryear? Where are the Loyola boys of still later. years? Hundred^* nay * thoiisafids of them, have come and gone through the historic portals of this pioneer college of the Southland. But where are they? Who knows their present address? Have they forgotten their Alma Mater? At the present moment a call is being sounded throughout the Southland for all former students of St. Vincent’s and Loyola to come forward and give their aid in this, the greatest effort of its career, to build an outstanding uni¬ versity for the youth of Southern California. The Loyolan herewith is printing a very incomplete list of these men. If your name is here, but wrongly classified will you please write to John M. Costello, the president, of the alumni association, either at campaign headquarters, 643 S. Olive street, or at Lqyola College, 1901 Venice Blvd.? If your name is spelled wrongly or your address is incorrect, will you please write Costello? If you know the whereabouts of any of the unidentified men, also will you write Costello? And if you know the names of any men not on this list will you again write Costello? Do not forget all that Loyola has done for you and the Southland! Do not forget your Alma Mater! Write today! vicinity remnants of four Indian tribes, the Klamath, Modoc, Pitt River, and Piute Indians. Very Rev. Father Piet, the Pro¬ vincial of the California Province of the Jesuit Order, is due to arrive at Loyola on September 12. He is now paying an unofficial visit to the new Brophy College at Phoe¬ nix, Arizona. If you happen to notice that Brother Pereira is more than usu¬ ally busy you might guess that he is engaged in preparing plants, and trees for the new Loyola grounds. He has already gathered quite an assortment of them to be trans¬ planted to the new site , as soon as improvements on the premises al¬ lows 1865 Behrndt, Sam, 318 W. 5th st. Orfilla, Antonio, 1406 S.

A preliminary dona¬ tion of $100,000 was made , by E. L. Doheny, oil magnate at the first business meeting of the Central Committee a few days ago. He explained that it is his intention to make other and larger donations later in the campaign. Athletic Passes to Be Issued Soon LIFE-PLACQUES NULLIFIED By V.

LOYOLANS Will A call is being sounded by the Alumni of St. Vincent’s and Loyola College for men from the classes of 1865 to 1928, to band together in the concerted movement to raise a. fund of $175,000 toward the construction of an alumni building in the new $5,000,000 Loyola University. Spurred to action by civic leaders headed by Judge Louis W. Myers, former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Cali¬ fornia, as general chairman, and James Woods, vice presi¬ dent of the Biltmore Hotel system, as chairman of the cen¬ tral committee, the “Old Boys” launched the alumni campaign at the smoker reunion on the evening of August 27. Father Joseph A. Sullivan, S. J., president of Loyola, welcomed the alumni in the name of the faculty and regents and expressed the hope that the graduates and former stu¬ dents would recognize Loyola as their Alma Mater. Speaking in behalf of the St. Vin¬ cent’s men, William A. Barnhill proposed that the combined alumni undertake to raise $175,000 toward the construction of one of the buildings which should bear the title, St. Vincent’s Hall. Enthu¬ siastic approval was given the pro¬ posal by both the men of St. Vin¬ cent’s and Loyola. Subsequently, committees were formed by St. Vincent’s and Loy¬ ola men to conduct an alumni cam¬ paign from September 24 to 29. Barnhill was elected unanimously general chairman of the combined alumni group. John M. Costello and Henry G. Bodkin were elected vice chairmen together with an executive committee composed of the officers and William J. Daze, Thomas H. McGovern, and Louis J. Clarke. Joint Campaign It was the decision of the alumni groups that the alumni associa¬ tions of St. Vincent’s and Loyola should be unified and conduct a joint campaign among their mem¬ bers to raise the necessary $175,000 for the building which should bear the designation: “Erected by the Alumni of St. Vincent’s and Loyola.” Following the preliminary con¬ ference, the alumni named commit¬ teemen who would undertake to in¬ terview and solicit subscriptions from their former classmates for the construction of the alumni building. Provision was made whereby the former students may make pay¬ ments to the building fund in con¬ venient installments over a period of two years. It was cited in this connection that every alumnus (Continued on Page 4)
