The opportunity to obtain a college education is a great privilege, extended only to a small proportion of the population of the world. It is, consequently a weighty responsibility. The college student has leisure denied to others, to study, to become acquainted with the learning and thought of the ages, to converse with the greatest minds of all the world. He is admitted into the company of the real elite and aristocrats of all times. He enters upon the greatest possible adventure, the explora-tion of the field of kno\vledge.

Hence, every college student should have a sense of the exalted nature of his business and a realization of the responsibilities that rest upon him. "Nobless oblige." He has leisure to study but not to idle. He has time to enter into communication with the great minds of the world but not to waste. H(> must relentlessly give himself to the pursuit of truth as other men give themselves to the pursuit of money or of nleasnre. If he does not it will be a loss and a detriment.

Concerning Freshmen With the reception last Saturday

night the Freshman received their first formal recogni tion as a class. There will be more recognition later on and it wiU be formal, - very. The upperclassmen will see to that. Green caps will soon be very evident about the campus but they will be merely a prelude to the thin~~ to come.

It seems to be traditional in most colleges that the Freshmen serve an apprenticeship to fit themselves for the dignified (? ) offices of upper­classmen, Generally this is made as unpleasant as possible, but the yearl­ings at St. Viator can consider them­selves fortunate that they do not have to undergo the torments in­flicted upon their fellows at many larger institutions. We do not ad­vocate paddling and we feel that there is Ii ttle justice in the s logan of the upperclassmen "We got it, so we'll give it," but we realize that editorial disapproval Win not put an end to long-established custom. Past experience teaches us the fo lly of such efforts. Therefore we can only hope that the Frosh wi ll face the inevi table w ith the same fortitude that we did.

Now they come out of the huddle and are back to the line of scrimmage and there is the play; and it's a long pass, and he's away, off down the field: and he slips, and he's up again, and the crowds have gone mad, and he makes the touchdown, and the game is over, and Notta Durn wins 6-0. Please stand by.

REFECTORY WILL CARE FOR DAY STUDENTS

Chef Paul Russo has announced that he will serve attractive plate lunches in the refectory each noon as an accommodation for the unusu­ally large number of day students attending the College this year.

It is planned to charge only a quarter of a dollar for these meals, plus an additional five cents for milk, coffee, or tea.

Although this mnovation has not attracted many of the non-resident students as yet, it is hoped that the patronage will increase as soon as the balance of them realize the value of the bargain offered them.

OBITUARY

The faculty and student body through the Viatorian extends its sympathy to Fr. Lowney on the death of his brother, Lieutenant Den­is Lowney of the 4th Divis ion, 38th Infantry, U. S. A r my. L t. Lowney's death occurred in Montana where he was stationed.

It is wi th deep regret that we learn of the death of Fr. Hackett of Ottawa who, during his life, was a very loyal friend of St. Viator Col­lege. "Fr. Maguire attended the fUneral services which were held in Otta wa, Sept. 24, 1931.
