Practically_one-third ot the college students, their numbers augmented by many_ from the professional schools, attended the Boston College game, in Boston, yesterday. Accompanied by a number of the faculty members and the R. O. T. C.

Like New York and Philadelphia, the Georgetown alumni in Boston are numerous. Dur- ing their stay in the Hub City, the Georgetown men were feted at numer- ous entertainments arranged in their honor. Owing to the general exodus from the college, the student body was given a holiday on Armistice day, so those going to Boston were able to make the trip on the “special” bea ing the team and the band.

The cleventh annual convention of the Howard University School of R ligion, held in the Andrew Rankin Chapel, brought together a large num- ber of ministers and other Christian workers from diffe f the country to discu: lizious Educatioi ian Church and International Good Will.” The open forums on evangelism were conducted by Rev. Dr. Charles L. Goodell, executive secretary of the commission on_evangelism and life service of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, New York City, while Dr. Albert John Murphy, secretary of the Congrega- tional Education Society, conducted an open forum each day on the gen- eral subject, “R¥cent Work in the Re- construction of Religlous Education.” R Dr. Frederick Lynch, speaking T national Good Will,” said: “Civilization is a great experiment in the art of living together in peace and security, Force, war, oppression and exploftation are pagan methods of adjusting human relationships. All of these have been discredited by his- tory. Love and good will, co-operation and kindness are the methods of Christianity. Where these have been adopted, as they have been very largely in our best Christian com- munities, men get along fairly well. Our problem is to convince the world that the same methods need to be ap- plied to the relation of nation with nation.” At the convocation dinner, ad- dresses were delivered by Rev. Dr. Frederick B. Harris, pastor of Foun- dry M. E. Church, and Dr. Mordecai ‘W. Johnson, president of Howard University. Miss Audrey Brown of Iincoln Heights, D.

Julian, of chemistry, and Prof. illiams, librarian of the uni- versity. The University band gave a concert ot patriotic airs in celebra- tion of Armistice day Kriday.
