PASSES AWAY Brother Mainville Was N inety
Years Old
On Thursday afternoon, October 4, 1928, Brother Anselme Damian Mainville, c. s. v., died in St. Mary's Hospital, Kankakee, Ill inois, after an illness of about s ix weeks. The body was brought to t he College Saturday morning and a Solemn Mass of Requiem was sung. The bier was placed in a t emporary chape) in front of St . Viator's altar, and through the long hours of Saturday and Sunday nig ht, students and brothers kept watch, saying almost continua] rosaries for the repose of the soul of the dead religious.
Monday morning at 10:30, the Funeral Mass was sung in Maternity Church, Bourbonnais. The Very Rev. 'Valter J. Surprenant, c. s. v., was celebrant, the Rev. Francis E. Munsch c. s. v., Deacon, and the Rev. James V. Rheams, Sub-deacon. The president of th~ College,' the Rev. J. W. R. Maguire, c. s. v., preached the sermon. Assisting h im in the sanctuary were Rt. Rev. Msgr. G. M. Legris, D. D., Very Rev. Msgr. Victor Primeau, and a number of visiting clergy. The music, fu rni shed by members of the Village and Brothers' Choirs, was under the direction of Brother John Koelzer, c. s. v. During the Solemn Mass, the Rev. J. D. LaPlante, c. s. v., and the Rev. J. G. Vien, c. s. v., celebrated Low Masses on side altars. The pallbearers were : Brother Paul G. Hutton, Franci s A. Corcoran , Gerard M. ·Lamarre, Emmet M. Walsh, James F. Meara and Joseph J. Ryan.
The students accompanied the hearse to the outskirts of the vi llage. Burial was in Maternity Cemetery, where Father Surprenant imparted the final benediction . While tbe confreres chanted the 11Benedictus," the body of Brother Mainville was lowered to its place beside his confreres that have gone before him.
Brother Mainville cornes from a famiJy of twelve children, two of whom were nuns, two priests, and one a brother.· Of all these the only survivor is...- Father Anthony Mainville, a retired pries t of the P eoria Diocese living at Mercy Home, Ohio. Illinois. The dead Brother also leaves a nephew, John B. Roy of Bourbonnais.
Brother Mainville was born Sepl:. 27. 1839, in the Province of Que boo, Canada . He received his education at the Viatorian College of Bourget (then Rigaud College), and entered the Novitia.te of the Clerics of Saint Viator at Joliette, Quebec. In 1873 he came to Bourbonnais and taught in the village school for many years. He lived at the Provincial Residence of the Viatorians in Chicago from 1902 until 1911, when he was sent to the newly founded Columbus College,
ham.bcrlnin, S. D. He remained here for seven years, and with the exception of another year spent in Chicago, has been at St. Viator College ever slnce. After he ceased teaching, he worked as a carpenter, and the College sanctuary rail remains as one of the memorials of his labors. Through utter feebleness, he was forced in l92.,t to lay aside his tools; yet even then he could not be idle, but made himself useful knitting clothes.

The Viator spirit would be s t rengthened if each s tudent would co.Jrerate with the other while c~er~n~.; for the team. If the students wur:.ld stay in their seats more support could be given to the team. After all moral support plays a tremendous part in assisting our boys to victory.

Brother Mainville
In wri t ing about the death of such as our venerable Brother Ma'nvil le, newspapers wo uld sub-tit le their article "nonagenarian" and would stress the longevity of the deceased. But while Brother Main ville li ved much beyond the Scriptural allotment in a t t aining his nin etieth yea r, it is his s ixty-nine active years in Religion wh ich impress hs conf rer s, fri ends, and t hose who think of supra-mundane things. Not only was t his long per iod speht in God's ser vice, but it was given in f aithful ser vice un to the end. Th e t ru st which God had confided to him, a religious vocation, was kept safely and intact during all these yea rs.
In his earlier years, while occupied in t he classroom, he proved himself a true Religious teacher and scores of those whose hairs a re now whitening, can testify to the solid instruction, religious training, and good example which Brother Main ville imparted to them .
Later on in life he was employed in the material and financial interests of the community and here too he acquitted himself of his du t ies with t he conscient iousness, fidel ity, and obedience of t he true religious.
In s ti ll later years, yet in good health, his versatile min.d and hands t urned to t he manual arts and he was of inestimable ser,·ice to t he different houses of t h communi ty. In these last labors il can be litera lly sa id of him, "he worked eye dim and finger lame." Throughout this long lif e he was ever genial, good natured, loved a good joke, and was always mi rthful.
The devotion to his relig ious dut ies during his last year s, when age was upon him, and his step was fa ltering, was the edifica tion of a ll. In our t ribu te we may well modify the lines of a poet:
"Oft have we seen him at peep of dawn, Brushing with slow st ep t he clews away" Not " to meet t he sun upon the upland lawn" But to attend Mass and receive his Lord.
He has gone to his reward but his memory lives and h is spiri t will ho,·er about St. Viator's leaving a sweet benediction on us all.

The newly erected church is of the Tudor-Gothic style. The exterior is Plymouth gra ni te with Bedford stone trimmings. T he interior is as impressive as the exterior. The flat , plast ered ceiling is wainscoated a nd artis ticall y decorated with symbol s. The Cruciform shape makes it poss ibl e for the body of the congregation to be near the a ltar. To the left of the sanctuary is a private chapel for s isters. Behind the altar s tands one of the three key boards for the organ which will accompany the famous boy choir. It is e~tima~cd that the cost of the new edifice with its fu rnishings will be $700,00fJ.
This magnificent house of worship is an eloquent testimony to the admin ist r ative abi li ty of Fr. Kinsella, and no less· to his really pastoral zea l. Fr. Kinsella was deep ly imbued with t he words of the Psalmist, ~~I ha ve loved the beauty of t he Lord's house ," a nd his pries tly heart, mi nd and soul could sca rce be less satisfied with anything else than this noble monument to God.

From our correspondent in St. Louis we received the following item: 'I.' he burial of t he St. Louis Cardinals took place today. The fun eral was a most colorful affair* although flowers were umitted by request of the Cardinal leaders. Carrying the casket and leading th e procession around the bases were Baby Ruth and h is p laymate, Tanglefoot Gehrig. It has been rumored in these parts that the two gentlemen here mentioned will be indicted for murder. The interment was strictly private, only members of the Cardinal fam il y be.ng present. Great tnrongs of people were on hand, however, when the m urder was committed, so it is not doubtful as to the poss ibihty of securmg enough witnesses to tes tify aga inst the two great New York slugger . Interment was in t he New York cemetery.
*Ed. Note: Anything from New York is said to be "colorful."
THE FATAL BALLOON RACE --When suddenly Tom sneezed. "Oh bother my nasal
catarrh," he swore. '"These paroxysms of poena gripe me." So say mg he arose irom the soft grou nd with a shudder. "Ah," quote he, '"T'was a bitter cold night. My bones are shaking like the leaves· on t he trees. But 1 must continue my search fo r mY fa ir pn ncess. To thi nk t hat slie is in t he hands of that low cur. Why he wou ld stop at nothing.

With t ,h e&e words he leaped to his saddle. From out of the black of night came a sneer .ng vo ice-"That's you, eh ?" Tom Whirled so !ast that he lpst his oalance and plunged headlong off his hor e landmg neatly on his back pocket.
"Dir ty ," exclaimed our hero as he whipped his hand to his pocket a11c( 1:>rot1gh out a kerchief, . for the sneezing had star ter. aga in.
"Ay~, 'tis me, Dirty Dalton, with his true fr;end and comrade, Cobra Pythoil."
·' What," said Tom, "That snake in the gra s- " J ust th.:-n Cobra appeared on the scene. Twas like the three wit~hes in Macbeth.
."What 'cha fi nd?" asked Dir ty, t aking his teeth out and spit ti ng a stream of tobacco juice at an innocent lit tle grasshopper that was making faces at him.
"Nothing," h issed the Cobra, "but a flea playing leap-f rog by ';he pond."
"Where is my darlink Nell ?" anxiously inquired Tom, but in t ,he gruff voice he usually r eser ved for animals. · "'How do we know, Buttercup," growled Dirty. "She hit me
over t he head with a horse early t his morning and made me walk home. She'll pay dearly for t hat."
"Oh pancakes," softly swore our brave hero. "Don't it beat the dickens how these females will disr egard etiquette. And as for you Dirty Dalton, if a hair of her head is harmed, I sha ll wring your unwashed neck, bury you under ten feet of g round., push you off a cliff and then shoot you dead. To horse! We must lind her."
"Hello there," said a voice behind t hem. T hey wheeled and t(l t heir utter amazement saw--(To be cont inued next week).
(Ed . Note. We wonder where Darl ing Nell can be. Tom had her a'nd lost her. Dirty had her and he's lost her! Oh, where is our wandering Nell tonight?)
Al Smith believes in Government of the people, for the people, and by t he people. Hoover believes in Government by the people, of t he people and for the people. Gosh! Every man should get two votes this time. It would make matter a lot simpler.
Oh! Oh! Oh! 'F.his is terrible ! Who wo uld ever t h"nk of it? I woke ~tp t he other morning to find that all my life I had been under t"he sinister influence of Tammany Hall . Oh! Oh! Oh! This is a,\•ful! Something must be done about it!

And that beautiful innocence to be li terally auctioned off the block. There were others who desired her as I did, I know. A man's ,·oice broke in, "What will you give for this beaut iful," a man pushed me, in h's eagerness to get to the front. I must prevent him at all costs.

Milwaukee, Wis.- Coach F'rank J.
Murray of the Marquette University Golden Avalanche is in his seve nth year as hea d coac h of t he loca l e leven, and he is not at all pessimistic over the prospects. Although he has lost so met hing like a dozen lettermen from the 1927 team, as well a s two of hi s best sophomore prospects through ineligi bility, he sees a si lver lining. Murray belongs to the new school of coaches, and if he t h ink s the prospects are good, he doesn't mind saying so.
Anakauskas, St. Thomas fu llback, crashed over for the first score of the contest after the Tommies had taken the ball away from St. Viator on the latter's 20 yard line. With one yard to go for a first down, St . Viator attempted to rush t he ball. but the Viator back wa s thrown for a loss.
Anakauskas was l'espons1blc for the second touchdown shortl y ::tft€r the fourth period opened.

Murray is an easterner and a graduate of T ufts. Peculiarly enough, he never played football but always was a keen student of t he game; he did engage in varsity basketball and base ba ll at Tufts, however. F ollowing graduation and some add itional work at Harvard , Murray was a reporter on a Springfield, Mass., paper, but resigned to come west as coach at St. Viator College .
He was successful at St. Viator, and in 1918 moved on to Milwaukee as professor of history and football' coach at \Vest Di vis ion High School, where his prep elevens were powerful and several t imes city champions. In the fa ll of 1920, lVI urray came to Marquette as head basketball coach, ass ista nt to Jack Ryan in footba ll and professor of economics. When Ryan left in 1922 to go to Dartmouth and later to Wisconsin, Murray was ap
pointed head football coach.

tea m gamely fought a losing contest with Trinity High School at Wilder fi eld in Bloomington , Friday, October 5, in the homecoming fray in a game replete with · fierce tackling, hard blocking and numerous f umbles on t he part of both teams. At times t he a ffair resembled t he old-fashioned, rough and tumble game with plenty of t hr ills and excitement; at other times it looked like a g~ntle ga me of " Tap the Iceman," with the iceman continually dropping his tongs.
To g ive the boys their jus t due, t hey fought, a nd fought ha rd, but that perverse imp of a pigsk in ins isted upon imitating the antics of his famous greased brothe r and eluded the anxious hands of t he backs. The general lack of 11Stick- toitive-ness" was not confined to either team. Both shared equally in the tota l of not less than fifteen fumb les t hat occurred at var ious times throughout the battle.
