April, 1931 THENOTREDAMEALUMNUS 259 THE INEVITABLE HOUR When Death intercepted the pass that Knute Eockne had resorted to in an effort to run up a score for Life, it raced for a victory against Notre Dame that is difficult to accept in the Notre Dame manner. The ALUMNUS cannot attempt in this issue, which was already on its way to the press, to digest for alumni the gi-eat mass of material that has mirrored one of the nation's greatest griefs, a loss to Notre Dame that is irreparable. News was flashed to every corner of the world of the death of Knute Rockne, a death as meteoric in its dramatic tragedy as the few years that brought him to a peak of prominence transcending the narrow confines of the sporting world. "Rock" was the idol of neighborhoods and nations. Praise of Rockne forms a litany that brings a responsive Requiescat from the hearts of the world. Inspirer of youth, maker of men, apostle of sportsmanship — death has removed a character whose influence stretched far beyond his official sphere. He died as perhaps he would have wished to die, a patron of progress. Knute Rockne was essentially progressive. Years, few in number — he was only 43 — had brought him more fame than most men's lives can measure. And death, aside from its religious significance, has brought him life. Those virtues which Knute Rockne embodied and which he inculcated in those fortunate boys who came within his influence, will erect a monu ment to him at Notre Dame, permanent, priceless. "Rock" taught Notre Dame how to lose, as well as how to win. Never has the knowledge been more needed. Notre Dame and Notre Dame men will not fail, in those lessons he has left. "Take it on the chin." Notre Dame has always kno^^^l that. When religious and laymen scraped the hot bricks of the ruins of an older Notre Dame to rebuild immediatelj", they knew this virtue. It was here when "Rock" came, and he absorbed it and used it at its best. "Never boast." To "Rock," with all the laurels that were proffered that famous brow, it was always "Notre Dame." And under his guidance the extraordinary success that came to Notre Dame was tempered with this modesty of achievement. The temptation to go on in the pages of eulogy that could be justly heaped upon him is sti-ong. Alumni, however, are reading in every printed medium the thousands of tributes that have followed his tragic passing. It is the purpose of the ALUMNUS, in the May issue, to gather the outstanding results of this catastrophe into a Memorial Edition that can bring to alumni those things about Knute Rockne that Notre Dame men want to remember. 260 THE NOTRE DAHE ALUMKXTS April, 1931 THE NOTRE DAME ALUMNUS Volume IX.

Hering^ President of the Alumni Association of the University, in co-operation with Rev. Charles L. O'Donnell, C.S.C, President of the University, has led a movement among the friends of Khute Rocbne, including a number of prominent alumni, to take steps to erect a suitable Rockne Memorial. Donations from scattered parts of the country have already been received by Father O'Donnell, and many expressions indicate a very active anticipation of this project. At the time the ALUMNUS goes to press, the Committee, which will be nation-wide In its scope, has not yet been announced. Alumni will of course be given every opportunity to participate, individually and by Clubs. No funds will be solicited. The Committee will simply receive those voluntary contributions which the thousands of friends of Rock very evidently wish to, and intend to, give. . At the present writing, it Is the thought of the Committee organizers that the form of the Memorial should be guided by the resources avail able from contributions and by the wishes of the contributors.
