-583!) VISIT T0 ISLAND- The many friends of Mr. Albert E. Mace have regretfully said farewell as he and his housekeeper Mrs. Nelson, prbparcd to close his summer home at French River for another season,- and return to spend the winter months at his home at Dedham. Mass. Mr. Mace has been coming to the Island for 53 years and in his opinion there is no place to equal the Garden of the Gulf, especially in summer, and no other spot quite as satisfy- ing as French River. A native of England, he has been a world-wide traveller, having served in the Royal Navy and later in the Mer- chant Marine. Having seen the world having an eye for the best, when the time came to settle down, he chose 1. Prime Edward Island girl, Miss Laura Adams of French River to be his wife. With her husband she returned each summer to the place of her birth where her gift for friendship and her kindly generosity earned for her such a place in the hearts of kinfolk and friends, that her name is still, and will continue to be, spoken often and in tones of af-

i The Week

at S.D.U.

With the campus once more alive with eager students going to and from class, the Joyous meet- ings of old classmates and the bone-crushing tackles resounding over the football field, we realize that vacation is over, and a new year has begun at St. Dunsts.n's. For many students St. Dunstan's has become a' second home when September rolls around, while for others college life is just begin- ning. It makes little differen whether one is graduating from is just beginning college, since at S. D. U. the pursuit of a Christian education has taught us to mingle together and live as one big fam-

y. -. St. Du.nsta.nls officially opened on September 10 with A record number of High School students registering. One week later, on September 1'1, the college students returned. The number of college students is somewhat reduced from last year.

During the summer several changes have been made in the teaching staff. Rev. Vincent Mur- naghan has replaced Mr. Ronald Coucet in the Commerce Depart- ment. Rev. James Kelly replaces Rev. Thomas MacLeilan as Latin

teacher. Rev. Charles MacDonald is teaching in the High School Department.

The students at S.D.U., especial- ly the students who are taking Latin, are proud to hear that dur- ing the summer Rev. Thomas Mac- Leiian received his Doctorate in Theology. Fr. Tom received his degree from Grand Seminary, Montreal.

Since the opening of college the staff of "Red and White" has been chosen for the coming year. The staff is made up of the following students: Editor in Chief, Gerald Steele; Assistant Editor, Thomas McGaugh; Buslnas M a. n a g e r, Frank Zakem; Assistant Business Managers, Charles Roche and Leo McG'inn; Associate Editors: Chron- icle, Simeon Farmer; Athletics, John B. Fisher; Humor, J. J. Dun- phy and Claude Callaghan; Con- tributing Edltors, Ellen Mullally, Gilles Normand, Ralph Gaudet. Russell Mclrmis, and Richard Noonan. .

As usual at this time of year, the football field is swarming with prospective, players who are prac- ticing each day under the watch- ful eyes of Coach A. J. MacAdam. and Assistant Coach, John E. Green. Although there are only

Plan More Parking Space On Slside Waterfront , ,

i 4It was learned last evening that

the way had been cleared, in part. for the construction of ElfIdItlOil'.'.i parking space on the Summer-si-.l:' waterfront between Queens What: and a section of reclaimed land owned by R. T. Holman Ltd. The area in qumtion is located bn the waterfront back of the Smallman building. '

Superintendent, Department of Transport, Charlottetown and Mr. J. Watson MacNauy,-ht, M.P., to

view the proposedlsite.

Mr. MacNutt, after taking the matter up with his department in Ottawa, received word to the ef- fect that the department had no objection to the contsruction of the proposed parking lot.

At the present time Porter and Company are engaged in blasting and removing rock from the harbor bottom in the area of the Marine Wharf. Heretofore this rock has been hauled outside the arbor and dumped. It is understo that the amount of mck necessary to build is rock sea wall in front of the pro- posed parking will be dumped as close to its intended destination as possible.

Someone. presumably the town. would then have to pay to have the rock placed in a position to form a oea wall. This area would then be filled up and levelled and would provide space for an estim- ated 300-500 cars. -

Remember: Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.

Summerside fans were proud to see a native son in the person of Dee. Lefurgay match skill with the highly touted Roscoe Wilson of Lewisvillo in s. pit.chers' battle at the Queen Elizabeth diamond Thursday afternoon. Lefurgey went to the showers in the eighth in- ning. but his splendid pitching per- formance was one of the nnain rea- sons for the c. and B. victorY- We commend Johnny Carroll for tak- ing Lefurgey out as prompt y as l.e did. We often think coaches in amateur games lcave pitch-rs too long and lose games thereby. Johnny knew that Dee's heart was set on winning that ball game, and that '”ing the ) --.1lthBndEl' would be a pretty big disappoint- ment to him but winning the ball game was the rrnst important thing, and we feel sure that Le- furgey, who has a lot of team spirit, realized that his coach had done the right thing. '

The Curranites to whom we have given more brickbats than bou- quets this summer are certainly finishing up the season like cham- pions. It is hardly to be expected that they will pull this present series out of the fire, but if we don't. see any more baseball games at Queen Elizabeth Park this fall, the memory of that last one will stick with us all and raise the much abused 0. and 8. players higher in the estimation of Summeraide baseball fans in general. The kids played errorless ball Thursday,land with a sum 1-0 lead to defend for seven innings, the boys never got a chance to relax or shake off the tenseness that accompanied every play. so maybe those boys can function pretty smoothly with the

The ladies of Alherton Presby- terian congrcgation served a delici- ous chicken salad supper in the Manse Thursday evening. Tables arranged in dining and living rooms were most attractive in color schemes of pink, yellow and green, with cut flowers and lighted tap- ers. Mrs. W. C.

butterflies fluttering arddnd after all.

When we learned of Dec Le- fui-gey's good pitching chore in Lewisville, to be frank. we were still a. bit sceptical and figured the kid was out for a stroll with lady luck. After seeing him against Wil- son in Summerside we've changed our ntinds, and think the boy has what it takes to be a real pitcher. After all, you can flirt a little with lady luck but no one has ever been known to go steady with the fickle jade, and Lefurgeyts second good performance in I row marks him as a definite prospect for a first string pitcher on next. years baseball team.

We were a little surprised at the action of some of the Lewisville ball players. Any time we'd seen them in action before. they'd won their ball games, and were as fine gndjnlly 3, group of ball tossers as you would like to see. At the end of Thursday's ball game some of them were inclined to be a bit waspish, to put it mildly.

Perhaps we should not altogether blame the visiting players. The officiating left much to be desir- ed. In the heat of any contest feeling is liable to run a bit high and a tight rein is required if the game is to be kept. in hand. Of- ficials should be at all times ready to nip in the bud any action threatened to undermine their authority.

The good wishes of all Summer- side softball fans will go with George's Gals as they travel to Fredericton Saturday to engage in the Maritime finals of ladies soft- ball with the Frndcricton team. Winners of the Nova Scotia-New Brunswick title. If thby can put. up such stout. opposition as And,V'F Aces did against the Halifax Sport- ettcs. they will give a good ac- count of ti-icmsrlves. In nil fair- ness, however, it must. not be for- gotten that this Freda-icton team is probably-a little stronger than the Nova. Bcotia champions. hav- ing taken the series with them in rather-convincing fashion.
