A musical program was one of the features of the commencement. Di.| plomas were presented to the following graduates: “rances Elinor Brady, Catherine Ma- rie Brew, Adele Katharine Cavanagh, Mary Rosalie Cavanagh, Mary Eliz beth Coleman, Margaret Mary nors, Katherine Crowl Anastas itzgerald, Margaret nora Frawley, Margaret Gra Anne Marie Hayes, Margaret Ma Terlihy, Gladys Katherine Kenned: Regina Cecilia McGivern, Julia Ma O’Connor, aret Mary Quill Iyn Agnes Schwartz and Mary M garet Walton.

C., TUESDAY, JURY FINDS TRAIN WRECK IN JERSEY UNAVOIDABLE Lackawanna Crash, in Which 48 Died, Was “Beyond Human Control,” Is Verdict. By the Associated Press. ‘WASHINGTON, N. J., June 23. —A coroner’s jury last night decided that the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad wreck at Rockport Sag on June 16, in which 48 persons were killed, was caused by “a combi- nation of circumstances unavoidable and beyond human control.” Most of the victims were Chicago tourists on a trip to Germany, their native land. During the inquest 14 witnesses testified, 2 of whom were passen- gers on the train. A number of wit- nesses called by the railroad company said it was their belief the wreck was caused by a landslide which covered the tracks and derailed the train. They said the train was traveling at a speed of between 45 and 50 miles an hour, The jury returned its verdict ex- cnerating the railroad from all blame after deliberating only minutes. Renewed activity in building has relieved the unemployment situation in Toronto. TEANIS TO CANVASS HERE FOR LEGION Veterans to Solicit General Public’s Aid to Fund for Endowment.
