Finally, at 8, Mary Schmid, Student Union academic commissioner walked onto the stage to introduce the creator of The Far Side. But the resounding applause compounded by an audience chant of"Gary, Gary, Gary ... " prevented Schmid from completing her task.

Then Gary Larson appeared. As the cartoonist walked meekly to the podium, the auditorium ex- · ploded into a standing ovation which Larson could only answer with a nervous "Thank you ... I don't know what to say. I didn't realize there were this many de­ mented people in South Bend."

Hello again, everybody! For one brief shining moment the south dome of the ACC became: Camelot last Saturday. The subjects of this frozen wasteland, known as the student body, had become restless and quiet for a couple of years, but responded in a tumultuous crescendo which "shook down the thunder" from the catwalks. Digger Phelps and the Fight­ ing Irish shone like knights on white horses, deftly saving victory from the: evil clutches of a band of warriors from Maryland. OK, maybe that's overdoing it a little, but the point is this: Notre Dai'ne's victory over Maryland was not a fairy tale. Saturday's win came through a solid effort by an Irish squad growing in confidence with every game. The team seems to he gelling right now, which makes the: last ten games of the season look extremely exciting, indeed. Nevertheless, Phelps and Co. must guard againM a letdown this week, as they have a tough game with Fordham tonight before heading into a snakepit at South Carolina on Saturday.
