Edward Hickey, former student of
the university, and a student of the
University of Texas, is hitch-hiking
throughout the United States and
Canada visiting all of the principal
cities, capitals and getting the signa-
tures of all governors, famous person-
ages, politicians and governor generals
of the Canadian province, clippings
from various United States and Cana-
dian papers reveal.
Elickey is known as the “perennial
senior at Texas University” and the
“hitch-hiking cowboy.” So far he has
visited all of the provinces of Canada
and thirty-one of the states, covering
twenty thousand miles in his trip.
Hickey has been gone for three years
on his trip and expects to have visited
the remaining seventeen states by
Christmas of this year.
He set out from Austin with a friend
in a car but they ran into a little hard
luck in Memphis, Tenn., and. the car
caught fire and burned. While Hickey
was at the University he was a student
in the Business Administration school
and was greatly liked among his school
mates for his amusing store of wise-
cracks and his eternal good humor.
ward’s is to be the host of the Texas
conference tennis tournament this
year, but that it will be impossible un-
less additional courts are laid out.

GEORGE A. KIENER
ON FACULTY
STATE DEPUTY DRISCOLL
TO RECEIVE INSIGNIA
AS ST. GREGORY KNIGHT
George A. Kiener, last year on the
faculty of the College of St. Thomas, -
St. Paul, has joined the St. Edward’s
faculty this year. He is teaching a
section of freshman English and is
also assisting Father Hagerty in re-
organizing the department of philoso-
phy.
Mr. Kiener received the A.B. in phi-
losophy from the University of Notre
Dame in 1928, and during the following
year was secretary to Father Schu-
macher, who was then head of the de-
partment of philosophy at Notre
Dame. Last year he taught philoso-
phy at St. Thomas and did graduate
work at the University of Minnesota.
He has also done graduate work at
Western Reserve university, Cleve-
land, Ohio, which is his home city.
Mr. Kiener will speak on “Philoso-
phy and Education” at the October 9
meeting of the Neo-Scholastic society,
Tom Young, president, has announced.

Enthusiasm in the popular game of
tennis reached a new high pitch during .
the past two weeks as a large number
of freshmen began to arrive on the
campus and cast ambitious eyes on the
court where last year’s squad has been
working out daily.
So much interest has been taken by
the newcomers that it has been deemed
advisable to ask that the University to
construct from two to four additional
concrete courts. The initial move in
this direction was taken by Captain
Manuel Ochoa of the tennis team. A
petition has been circulated among the
tennis enthusiasts and at present bears
the names of over twenty-five stu-
dents. ■
At a meeting of the Student’s Activ-
ity council on September 24, the move
was given added impetus by the en-
dorsement of the council after the
proposition had been brought up by
Randolph Papich.
An invitation tournament is now go-
ing on in which twenty-eight men—
a large number of whom are fresh-
men— are taking part. Observers of
these matches are of the opinion that
St. Edward’s will have a conference
winning team this year. In addition
to the material that remains from the
last year’s squad, a number of fresh-
men are showing some real class in
the matches.
Besides the fact that such wide-
spread interest is being taken in the
1 game, the supporters of the new court

Of unusual interest to Catholics of
. Texas and the Southwest will be the in-
vestiture of Joseph I. Driscoll of El
Paso, state deputy of the Knights of
Columbus and Catholic lay leader, with
the insignia of the knighthood of St.
Gregory the Great on October 12. The
event will take place in St. Patrick’s
Cathedral, El Paso, the Rev. Dr. Paul
J. Foik, C.S.C., chairman of the com-
mittee in charge, announced Tuesday.
Announcement that the honor had
been conferred on Mr. Driscoll, by Pope
Pius XI was made last May through
the Rt. Rev. A. J. Schuler, S.J., D.D.,
•bishop of El Paso. At that time it
was stated that the unusual distinction
had been accorded Mr. Driscoll in rec-
ognition "of his activities in promoting
the welfare of Catholicity in the South-
west.
Almost the entire hierarchy of Texas
and New Mexico will be present at^the
investiture, including the archbishops
of San Antonio and Santa Fe, Chair-
man Foik said. Third and fourth de-
gree members of the Kfiights of Co-
lumbus will be present in large num-
bers, the members of the latter degree
appearing in full regalia. Many nota-
ble persons from Texas and other
states are expected to attend.
A Pontificial High Mass will be cel-
ebrated by Bishop Schuler1 on the
morning of the- investiture. In the
evening a banquet will be served at one
of the leading hotels of El Paso, hon-
oring the newly made knight of St.
Gregory.
Native of Maryland
A native of Maryland, Mr. Driscoll
has been in Texas for the past twenty
years. He is at present clerk and li-
brarian of the Court of Civil Appeals
,w He has been state deputy
o/ the Knights of Columbus for the
past seven years and is now serving
his eighth term. Before assuming his
present office he was state1 advocate
for two terms. He has served the El
Paso council as lecturer, grand knight
and trustee, and has been a member of
the council for sixteen years.
The event promises to be an out-
standing one in the history of Catholic-
ity in Texas, Dr. Driscoll being the
first Texan to be . so honored by the
Holy Father, It will also be one of the
most colorful events which the Catho-
lics of Texas have ever been privileged
to witness.
The distinguishing insignia of the
Order of St. Gregory the Great, accord-
ing to the Papal decree, of September
1, 1831, is an “octangular gold cross,
skilfully wrought, having
