It is based on Father Hope's own long acquaintance with the University ar­ chives, and some eight years of compiling this data by Prof. James Corbett and former Prof. William Farrell. Father Hope himself has spent 14 months of intensive writing to produce the volume. A 24-page supplement of seldom-seen pictures of historical significance adds greatly to the interest and value. In 1893 the Golden Jubilee of the Uni­ versity was commemorated by a history written by the late Judge Timothy How­ ard, alumnus, faculty member and Indi­ ana jurist. It has long provided an inter­ esting and valuable source of informa­ tion, but even in the treatment of that first half century. Father Hope's analy­ sis of the invaluable archives of the Uni­ versity and the Congregation have re­ vealed much that has not been known before. It is in the early sections, too, that Father Hope's very able literary style is at its height. His character treatments of Father Sorin, of the Brothers, of the Father Arthur J. Hop*.

Father Hope will delight alumni with several other qualities. His appreciation of the men who have made Notre Dame is sensitive and his treatment generous, but he has not pulled necessary punches. The early years are presented in their vigor rather than glamor. And through­ out the book there is a delicate but keen sense of humor that relieves and authen­ ticates many of the incidents which it accompanies. In the last, modern period.

Rev. Hugh O'Donnell. C.S.C, president oi the Uni­ versity, announces through the Department of Public Relations the establishment of the O'Shaughnessy Fine Arts Foundation in the College of Arts and Let­ ters. The benefactor who made the Foundation possi­ ble is L A. O'Shaughnessy of St. Paul. Minn.; whose generous gift of $100,000 was received shortly before Christmas.

The O'Shaughnessy Fine Arts Foundation, concern­ ing which further details will be published later, be­ comes part of Notre Dame's plan, being carried out through the co-operation of friends and benefactors, to strengthen the College of Arts and Letters in the face of a growing tendency toward the purely tech­ nical and vocational aspects of higher education. This is in keeping with the policy of the University as set forth by Father O'Donnell at the first student convoca­ tion after the United States entered World War 11:

"In this crisis the University has two duties: The first is the obvious duty of helping to overthrow the false principles that make man the creature of the state. The second is to train men for post-war leader­ ship. Peace, when it comes, must be a lasting peace built upon fundamental morality with its concept of rights and duties as they apply to individuals and nations. To neglect the second obligation, or to be placed in such position that it cannot be fulfilled, defeats the purpose of the first."

In announcing the Foundation, Father O'Donnell said: "Mr. which is so necessary for the preservation of the American O'Shaughnessy's tangible expression of his regard for Notre way of life."

(N.6. Following are all the recorded contributions to the Centenary Fund of the University of Kotre Dame from alumni. Some have been acknowl­ edged by name or amount before. Some of these came direct to the Alumni Association. Others came through the President of the University. Many came through the ofiicc of J. Arthur Haley. Director of Public Relations. The list is a compilation of all of these, to gauge the extent of alumni par­ ticipation. Many of the gifts listed do not represent actual Centenary contributions of the individual but are contributions in lieu of dues during this Centenary year and as such entitle the contributor to listing. They may be added to at any time, and the Alumni Board sincerely hopes that the number of alumni contributors will be greatly increased within the next two months, when another supplementary report of contributions will be published.)
