For a few minutes we shall try to push all thoughts of philosophy. biology. etc. to one side. and bring you some of last week's activities. along with a word or two about Christmas.

It was the semi-final series between the sophomores and seniors which aroused the most excitement. how- ever. This series was one of the most bitterly contested in intra- mural-ieague history. and was not decided in favor of the Sophomores until they had won the replay of a protested game. in the finals. the Freshmen put up a stiff battle. but the eager Sophomores could not be denied the championship. The lineup of the winners. and still champiors. includes: A. Murphy. J- O'Brien. J. Clarkln. J. Mullally, F McGaugh. and F. Drlscoll.

can we get!) is tantamount to wishing a friend a "Merry Exmas."
It does seem quite true that
those who charge that Christmas is losing much of its original meaning are not merely talking through their hats. In this part of the ,world. it its a matter for exultation that most of us have retained the belief in the Joyful event that was the first Christmas. At the same time. however. it would not be out of place to ask ourselves if we are not more in- terested in giving and getting to and from each other. than we are in giving to Him who holds ex- clusive rights on this great feast.
so many things in the last two thousand years have tended to ob- scure "the meaning of the birth of the Christ-Child that it would be well if we recalled one of the more interesting incidents of the mir- acle; the visit of the Three Wise Men to Bethlehem. when news of the birth of the King and, Prince of Peace was brought to them. they did not pat each other on the back. nor did they buy ex- travagant presents for one anoth- or. with humble and hopefulheart. they brought their gifts to the Babe in the Manger.

At that momentous period of history. times were troubloua, there scarred no end to the con- fusion. Is it not significant. then. that the three Wise Men should turn to Him who could do some- thing abaut it all? They rejoiced. it is written. and falling down they worshipped Him. In there not a. similar parallel today? Confus- ion is heaped upon confus- ion. Yet there is reason to rejoice: "rbr there has been born to you in the town of David a saviour. who is Christ the Lord." The world. indeed. would be wise if it took the opportunity to return Christ to Christmas. and let it really be His birthday. Perhaps. if we really put Christ into Christmah. He will put order into confusion. Then not only would Christmas be Christ's. but the world would be truly Christian. '
This. then, is our prayer for this Christmas. And in this prayer
we may truly hope for lipeace on earth to men of good will." .
