According to Mattie Hosinki, who
was recently operated on for appendi-
citis, the new analgesic, or local an-
esthetic, used for the first time at
Seton Infirmary, seems to be a great
success.
After the analgesic has been in-
jected, a screen was placed upon his
chest and he was not allowed to watch
the operation, but after the appendix
had been removed, he was allowed to
watch the doctors sew up his side.
According to Mattie, there was no
feeling of pain at all, as the drug had
rendered him powerless to feel in any
part of his body.
There seem to be several advantages
of this new kind of operation, accord-
ing to Hosinski. First, it is safer for
those who have a weak heart, and who
might die under gas or ether, and,
second, it affords a chance for those
who wish to see the doctor operate
upon them.
Hosinski also said that the analgesic
keeps its hold upon a person for sev-
eral hours after the operation, and the
pain begins after the drug wears off,
but it is no worse than it would have
been with a different anesthetic, he
said, and the usual sickness following
ether is .avoided.
The doctors seem to think that the
new method will find many followers
among the patients for major opera-
tions, Mattie explained.

the staff at this time. It is known
on reliable authority, however, that
the final revelation of these things
will augment the pleasant surprises
that the Golden Jubilee Tower sub-
scribers are due to get when the year-
book comes off the press.
Business Manager Randolph G.
Papich has reiterated his former
statements that only the number of
copies that have been subscribed for
in advance of press time will be
printed. He urges, therefore^ that stu-
dents subscribe at once, not only to
help make the staff’s work a bit easier,
but to be sure they -will be able to get
a copy when the book has )been com-
pleted. Organizations that! have not
made reservations for space’ in the an-
nual are also urged to do so in order
that work on this section) might go
ahead.

The Prep basket ball team has been
practicing regularly for the past two
weeks and is beginning to look like the
best team the Preps have had in a
good while, according to Eddie Foley,
coach of the Preps. There are about
twenty men out for practice and they
have been divided into the regular
Prep squad and the Junior squad.
The Preps showing the most prom-
ise at present are Leonard, Pratt,
O’Brien, and Guerra.
New suits have been bought for both
the Preps and the Juniors. The Prep
suits have blue jerseys with gold num-
bers. The pants are gold. The Junior
jerseys are white with green numbers
and the pants are green.
The Preps will play in the gym Fri-
day night, when they will be host to
the Taylor team. The Juniors will

Plans for the exercises held annually
on Wiashington’s birthday are not yet
complete, according to Ed Young, act-
ing president of the senior class, but
a tentative program has been made out
and sent up to the faculty for approval.
Due to the fact that the holiday falls
on a Sunday this year, plans are to
hold the exercises on the preceding
Saturday. The program will start with
the raising of the flag and the parade
across the campus with the seniors in
cap and gown.
In the auditorium Edwin Young, in
the name of the senior class, will pre-
sent the University with a flag, in fol-
lowing out a tradition that has been
set on the campus by former graduat-
ing classes. After the faculty accept-
ance there will be an oration on Wash-
ington by John Sulak, some reading
of selections from Washington’s ad-
dress by Edward Ott, the recitation of
an ode to Washington by some mem-
ber of the senior class, and finally an
address by some outsider who has not
yet been selected.

As time goes on, the staff of the
Tower is seeing the gradual fulfillment
of its early promises that the Golden
Jubilee yearbook is to be the largest
and most representative annual that
has ever been published by St. Ed-
rward’s.
b Increases in various sections of the
Book will total approximately thirty
■ages more than in previous years.
“Vhese increases are being made by
he creation of an additional main di-
vision, several new sub-divisions, in
jrder to make the book more repre-
sentative, and the enlargement of the
'rind section.
A glance through the yearbook plans
HF with the editor, John L. Sulak, reveals
gf a number of points of interest. The
I opening section is not only enlarged
but also enhanced by beautiful art
work. The beauty of this section hints
at what may be expected in the rest
of the book and further observation
reveals the truth of that hint.
Full Page Pictures Used
The view section of the annual is
to be something new and different.
Instead of the part page views of
the campus and buildings that have
been used in previous books, new, full
page pictures are to be used. This
change gives the book an air of differ-
ence and distinction.
The feature section likewise has
gone through a change that has
brought high compliments from the
fengravers who have done work on St.
Edward’s annuals for years. Careful
selection of the pictures to be used, a
variety of shapes and sizes, and an ar- |
tistic arrangement make this part of
the book not only distinctive but of
much student interest as well.
Among the new subdivisions created
by the staff is one that elevates dra-
matics and forensics to their rightful
places among student activities. More
space and attention is being given to
dramatics and new places have been
created for intramural debating, ora-
torical competition and extempora-
neous speaking. These changes, as
well as a number of others, help in
making the annual much more repre-
sentative.
Action Pictures of Letter Men
The athletic section of the book has
also seen the inauguration of some
ideas that have never before appeared
in a St. Edward’s yearbook. The foot-
ball and basket ball divisions have not
only the usual squad and action pic-
tures, but in addition large action
poses of letter men. The track section
has also seen an enlargement, and as
new feature, pictures of track letter
men, as well as the usual squad and
action pictures, will be used.
In justice to the Preparatory school
students, their section has likewise
been enlarged. Both basket ball and
football will receive due recognition
and pictures of both teams will be
used.
The grind section, the last in the
book, is one about which little can be
said by merely viewing the annual
plans. However, ample space has been
set aside for this important feature,
which, under the direction of Louie
Hoopes, feature editor, is expected to
> .. blossom into one of the most interest-
f Mdng sections of the book.
Theme Kept Secret
These are only some of the changes
and additions that are to be made in
the new Tower. Other information,
> such as that concerning the theme and
its development, the dedication, favor-
*(Piites, and so on, will not be revealed by
The following letter was received
Monday from Roland Blackwell, co-
captain of the 1930 football team, who
is in New Mexico, recuperating from
an illness that struck him shortly after
the opening of the past football season.
The team recently sent him a large
silver football.

Dear Comrades of the Gridiron:
Probably at no other time in
my life have I been in greater need
of friendship than during my pres-
ent illness, and certainly at no other
time have the outward manifesta-
tions of real friendship been shown
me as now.
In accepting your magnificent
token I have but two regrets: first,
that I did not do more this season
to deserve it, and second, that I
cannot personally thank you.
Fellows, I appreciate the football
more than you know, and will ever
cherish and foster the friendship
which engendered it.
Despite defeat you were a great
team, and I trust that your fighting
spirit, close co-operation, and com-
radeship will be retained in future
teams.
