Your secretary was more than delighted to note that most of the '22Vrs have already anticipated our 35th Reunion next June, and took the trouble to write on tlieir Christmas cards that they were planning to attend our Reunion. This is a good omen, and can only mean that we are going to have a fine attendance. Due to the rather infre­ quent issues of tlic Alumnus, this may be our one and only opportunity to sound ofT through the mcdhim of tlic Alumnus, exhorting all *22 men near and far to retrace their steps to N.D. next June to relive some glorious hours with their buddies of old. Particularly, do we appeal to those who for a x'ariety of reasons were not able to show up for our class rcunioiLi of tlic past. Some have not attended due to press of business. To those we suggest Uiat \'acatinns be arranged to include our 35tJi Retmion, if same is necessary. Wc commend those who never fail to attend our reunions, and always co-opcrato to make them successful. Yowr class officers elected at our 30th Reunion will arrange to select a Reunion Director, who in turn will select tlie members of Uio \-arious committees. In due time all wilt receive additional Information from your Secretar>', the Reunion Director or the Publicity Committee. Tliose who attended our gala 30tlr Reunion cele­ bration at N.D. and Diamond Lake, Michigan, In 1952 were well rewarded for making tlic necessary effort to get there.

The University of Notre Dame Alumni Association

Midland, Texas FELLOW ALUMNI: ' Feb. 10,1957

The record vote in the recent election of new members to the Alumni Board emphasizes your feel­ ings regarding the position of this body in the sphere of Notre Dame life. The Board, reflecting your increased interest, has just completed another busy year, its work marked by progress along numerous paths. In the area of job placement, imder Father Lou Thornton, the massive work of consolidating infor­ mation concerning availability of jobs for those alumni desiring to change or better their position is progressing. Under Father Murphy, enrollment, an increasingly bigger headache, has seen the development of a personal interview for each student. This is a further step to ascertain the capability of each student. Growth of scholastic stature is directly related to the qualifications of students and their ability to ex­ tend the talents of the teachers. We have seen the growth of class activities, primarily through representation at the reunions, and the interest evidenced in the election of full lists of class officers. Although figures are not complete as yet, it appears that the Alumni Fund this year is the larg­ est ever, amounting in total gifts in excess of $800,000—indeed a remarkable showing. The annual Foun­ dation Report will be published in NOTRE DAME, March issue. However, the percentage of alumni givers has dropped slightly. The survival and progress of the private school is directly related to the support given by foundations, corporations, individuals and alumni. It seems logical that we alumni who benefited most should need little persuasion to assist our Alma Mater. The University, working through the Alumni Board, is endeavoring to keep the alumni growing individually by continuing their education in life through a program of adult education. This program is developing under Father John Cavanaugh. We will endeavor therein to stress that each alumnus can provide in his parish, community, and social life, an outstanding example of what Notre Dame pro­ duces in the way of Christian gentlemen. Sincerely,

JOSEPH I. O'NEILL^ JR. President

(Ed. Note: With an election of new officers scheduled at the Board of Directors' winter meeting in late February, the above comments wiU compose the final "President's Letter" during Joe O'Neill's term as the leader of Notre Dame's 26,500 alumni. His splendid cooperation in the Alumni Association pro­ gram far beyond the 'line of duty' merits special recognition—for these and many other services rendered by President O'NeiU the ALUMNUS extends an expression of sincere appreciation.—JC.)
