They bring their lunches and eat them at the Grotto, The statue is an Assumption represen­ tation of the Blessed Virgin and is about three feet in height. It is carried in a "carrier," built something like a sedan chair. The statue is a copy of Murrillo's Assumption. The garments are white and the mantle blue; the base is decorated with flovv-ers. On the way to the Grotto, hymns in Latin and English are sung, including "Ave Maris Stella." The antiphon at the Grotto consists of a verse and response followed by an oration. The ceremony is European in origin and has been celebrated on campus since the summer of 1843. But as far as can be determined, this year will be the first time that students have participated. Masses on Assumption will be the same as on Sundays: six, seven, eight-thirty, and ten o'clock. Student Performers Are Success at Vaudeville Last night the fourth of the revised K. of C.
