Green Little 19 Leaders Give Opposition in Saturday' srfilt Irish Will Be AJtcr Tille -AIHo

nevcnge For Detent S uffered Lust Soowm

The strongest opponent the Irish have met this season will be en-countered next Saturday wherr the DeKalb Profs, leaders of the Little 19 conference race, attempt to re­peat their smashing conquest of last year when they defeated an in­ferior VIator t eam 27-0 on the oc-easton of the DcKalb homecom ing.

The Profs have an ex tremely ver­satile, veteran line and a tricky backfield which can execute with prcclBlon the deceptive plays of Coach George Evans. Viator fans undoubtedly remember the quick­opening plays the Northerners sprang on a contused Viator line last fall und expect this year's edi tion to be able to stop this mode of attack. Coach McNrunara, who captained the DeKalb team in 1~30 and won a guard berth on the conference a ll-star eleven, is not so optomistic. "Evans will save bls bag of tricks for us", mourned Mac, "as our game 1'9 t!::.c last of the season for Ws t ea.rn."

Wra:"-glers Select New Officers

Brother Patrick Toomey, '37, was raised to the presidency of the Ber­gin Debating Society at a meeting of the Wranglers on October 22. Eugene Larkin, '38, was named sec­retary of the society.

Taking his place among the de­baters for the first time last year, Brother Toomey immediately con­vinced the organization of his high forerudc powers. With a pleasing and persuasive voice, he combines keen, analytic reasoning. He made frequent appearances over radio ~ta­tion WCFL on the Viator· Debate Hour last winter.

Larkin, beginning his third year of debating, has shown much inter­es t in current economic and political problems. H e is known in the so­ciety as a confirmed affirmative man, always ready to advocate any proposed change.

The two elective offices in the society are regatded as tributes from the debaters to the men named to the positions.

The Choral Club, according to an announcement of the Rev. M . P. Loughran, C. S. V., director, will make its local debut of the current season on November 24 in the Com­mons Building.

In issuing this bulletin Father Loughran stated that the male chorus of the Choral qtub would not take part due to the fact that they have such a short time in which to prepare for the annu~l

Christmas program which is pre­sented over radio station WCFL on Christmas Eve.

The November 24 program will consist of selections by the newly formed Girl's Chorus; songs by the Choral Club Male Quartet; instru­mental solos; and a guest soloist or two. The program will be further enhanced by a few novelty numbers from new members of the organiz­ation.

Besides a number of scheduled radio engagements plans are being formulated for an operetta to be given in conjunction w ith the girls of St. Francis College, Joliet. De­finite information concerning this production is not available.
