SEA Ambulance Serves
In Appendectomy Race
Taken ill with an acute pain in
the side, Bill Gribbon, freshman
in the Academy, was rushed to
Seton Infirmary in the school am-
bulance, Sunday, November 4. His
parents having been called in
Pampa, Texas, Gribbon was im-
mediately operated on for appen-
dicitis. This week the patient was
rapidly recovering in the down-
town hospital.

Thanksgiving Set
For 4th Thursday
By U. S. Congress
Thanksgiving will be celebrated
at St. Edward’s on November 22
this year, it was announced by
the Principal of the Academy, Fr.
William M. Robinson, last week.
This is in conformity with a pro-
clamation of the Governor,' Coke
R. Stevenson, who last Wednesday
named the fourth Thursday of
the month as the state holiday in-
stead of November 29.
In his official statement Gover-
nor Stevenson pointed out that the
fourth Thursday had been set
aside by Congress as Thanksgiv-
ing, and that it is a legal holiday
throughout the country. Last year
the Governor had announced, after
proclaiming a double holiday, that
thereafter Texas would conform to
the national pattern.
The change in dates failed to
catch the St. Edward’s Chef nap-
ping, Dewey Morris having re-
vealed last week that turkeys had
already been bargained for in
advance and would be stuffed
with dressing and nuzzling in
steaming pans by the time mess-
call sounds on the date assigned.
“Six Weeks” examinations orig-
inally scheduled for November 28,
will now be postponed until No-
vember 30, it was announced by
the Office of Studies.
Formal Attracts
Large Gathering
Formal dress made its appear-
ance, for the first time on the
campus this year at the “Annette
Duval” dance, held in the gym-
nasium last Friday. The colorful
affair, sponsored by the music in-
structor as a culmination of this
year’s series of classes, proved
highly successful in bringing out
a large Academy attendance.
Cadets had voted, during the
last Saturday-morning class ses-
sion, in favor of a formal, ex-
pressing their opinion that an
early formal would be fitting this
season.

Canvass Capital for V-Bond Pledges

Put a little reverse English into
developing and printing a camera
film and you can have horses run-
ning the wrong way around a race
track. A little dipsy-doodle, in
other words, can work wonders
with very innocent material.
Cadet editors found this out
after the last issue, when photo-
fault expert, Major Joseph E.
Cassidy immediately pounced on
the edition pointing out that cer-
tain pictures were printed in such
a way, horror of horrors! as to
violate all manual-of-arms tech-
nique.
In the snapshot, Cadets holding
their guns across their chests,
with muzzles pointed toward their
left shoulders, by a little magic
handling, were shown with their
rifles aimed in exactly the opposite
direction. Dear! Dear!
Fr. Doherty to Preach
Annual Retreat at OLL
Rev. Paul D. Doherty will
preach the annual retreat to the
300 university students of Our
Lady of the Lake College in San
Antonio this year. The retreat is
scheduled to begin.tomorrow and
end next Sunday morning.
A reconnoiterer of third floor
Holy Cross, King is a man of
many contacts, whose friendly
charm is password enough at most
ports of entry. The fact that bull-
sessioning doesn’t evilly influence
his grades is due to a mind that
is as sharp as those famous preci-
sion blades one sees advertised in
sleek magazines.
Premium steel in more ways
than one, King speaks Spanish
fluently in addition to his Eng-
lish, which fact might qualify him
as one of the satin Latins of the
campus. At least his linguistic
facility fits him for getting along
well with south-of-the-border
boarders.

John Charles Named
After Former Star
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Norris last
week announced the birth of a
boy, born November 1. Named
John Charles, after “Duke” Der-
dak, SEU gridiron stalwart here
in 1939, the baby is the second
child in the family. Flora Ann, the
sister, is three years old.
Coach Norris', who has not yet
seen the baby, plans to move his
family to Austin the first of the
year. They are at present in
South Bend, Ind., where Norris
played baseball during the sum-
mer.
Members of the football team,
under the leadership of Captain
John Dickehut and Father James
Lane, wired two dozen roses, last
week, to Mrs. Norris.
[Bonfire Thursday
As Edmen Prepare
For Bryan Cadets
A bonfire-side pep rally tomor-
row will herald in the 1945 Home-
coming festivities on the Hilltop
as the St. Edward’s Tigers ready
themselves to take on Allen
Academy for the campus classic of
the season Friday afternoon.
Students bustling about with
bundles of branches, dried grass,
anything burnable, this week were
piling high a holocaust to their
grid heroes as the CADET went
to press. Further plans were
under way for a super-celebration
as the Director of Athletics, Fr.
James Lane, made efforts to se-
cure notable speakers from down
town to address the students in
the course of the rally. Study-
hall will be dismissed Thursday
evening.
For the game itself, Friday
afternoon, Allen, from Bryan,
Texas,' home of the Aggies, will
bring to Austin real Thanksgiving-
season rivalry in the form of a
hefty squad that heavily out-
weighs the Tigers. The later are
definitely the underdogs for the
contest.
Allen Academy has made one
appearance already in the capital
this year, when it held a strong
Silents’ team to a one touchdown
victory. Edmen hope they can
equal their neighbors of South
Austin, but have been warned by
the coach it will take tip-top
elertness and spirited aggressive-
ness to turn the trick.
This is the last home game of
the season for the Tigers and
finds them with three losses and
four wins.

the Official Stand on the Austin
Hotel balcony.
In dress uniforms with dress
garrison caps, the Cadets assem-
bled downtown at Second Street at
10 a. m. and were given first
place in the third division of a
parade that consisted of seven
sections. The parade began at
10:40 and passed up Congress .to
the Capitol. At 11 o’clock the
bugles sounded halt, and all units
faced west in silent reverence for
the nation’s dead. Taps were then
sounded.
All American Legion units and
schools of the city joined in the
parade, as well as Texas State
Guard members, Bergstrom Field,
the Red Cross, and contingents
from Camp Hood.
At the conclusion of the parade,
the Cadet Corps inaugurated its
annual loan drive by canvassing
for Victory Bonds through the
city. They divided into platoons,
the students covering most of
Austin in the time allotted.
