It is with a definite sense of relief that I sit down this muggy May evening to write my last editorial for the SCHOLASTIC and, more than likely, the last that I shall ever write. During the past few weeks at least half a dozen final, ultimate, penultimate ways of writing the last editorial have been definitely decided upon. Now ·that I look back, the ideas that weren't maudlin were trite and I find myself seated at my type­ writer (so it's been called) with the ever-present deadline .to meet and only a very general idea of everything I would Jike to say. If this effort falls into either of the aforementioned categories, if my abandonment of the editorial "we" is too annoying, or if my remarks are terribly unjoumalistic, please ·accept this page for what it is and take no umbrage at the 'SCHOLASTIC. As I mentioned at the Publications Banquet two weeks ago, taking over as editor last November after the furor caused by my predecessor, a talented and much more devoted journalist than I, was not the happiest thing I have ever done; don't get me wrong, however, I have enjoyed the job but am glad to step down. The continued success (as the recently received All-American rating from the Associated Collegiate Press testifies) of the SCHOLASTIC has been the work of many people, some of whom I would like to thank publicly: My best friend, associate editor, and proprietor of the largest floating bridge game on campus (235 Walsh), LOUIE STETTLER ••. copy editor, proof reader par excellence, week-end commuter to the "Woods," inhabitant and staunch. defender of the non-existent Howard Hall, WALT RUDGE ••• features editor recently pirated from us to serve as Juggler editor next year, aesthete and escort of tall blondes (can be contacted at No. 6 Algonquin Estates, Glendale, Mo. during !the summer), JIM YOCH.•.• TEDDY THOMPSON, the baby-faced, "no-sweat" (though everyone else did) sports editor who last year inherited the nickname "Tyler" from Mike Fitzpatrick who, in turn inherited it from John Glavin the year before ••• this year's news editor, RON BLUBAUGH, who collapsed on the thirty-second interview for next year's SCHOLASTIC editor but was revived in time to learn that he'd been selected, good luck • • • temperamental cover artiste from, of all places, Davenport, Iowa, JON SIDDLE ... the red-haired Romeo of the business staJf, PETER VAN AMBERG HASBROOK, who recently amazed even Mary McGreevy by writing a "Back Page" and proving that he was literate • • . the quiet and efficient circulation manager who must have put at least twenty-three names on the complimentary mailing list for me, CONNIE SUSKI •.• the numerous assistants and legmen of the staft ••• our moderator, FATHER ·CAREY, who wasn't so bad after all ••• and FATHER BERNARD, who was ••• the two happy humorists of Sorin who attempted to de­ vastate the entire campus through "Escape" and who are always being confused, JOLLY JOHN BOWEN and CHARLIE BELLAIRS ••• our music critic G.

------OUR. COVER.: During the past four years WDfllfSS the present editors of the SCHOLASTIC have felt that the real students at Notre CAIOETIIH Dame have oftentimes been neglected in favor of the "student leader" or extra­ curricular type college student. In planning our last SCHOLASTIC cover for 1958-1959 we felt that "some­ thing special" should be done for the grad­ uating seniors who have succeeded in the academic sphere.

Breakfast in bed is hard to take but so is the twenty by twenty room which went for below Dean's List average. Classes start at the ungodly hour of 8 a.m., which for some means 1ising long before seven every day. This is prompted by the truly unfortunate fact that the custom of taking attendance, recently imported from you know whe1;e, has been avidly adhered to in order to sat­ isfy part of the whims of our Western masters. Should this spread to the University, diplomatic relations would certainly be suspended as such a I'Ule would seriously impah· the Euro­ pean conception of student which I myself find to be, in short, merely a realistic conception of a matured being attempting to partake of a wealth of knowledge in an unperfunctory man­ ner. Luckily I can make class in fifteen minutes so transpor­ tation poses few problems. Classes are held for the most part in English or translated although it is common to choose Ger­ man classes once the language barrier has been successfully hurdled. The University itself consists of many buildings scat­ tered throughout the city, the principle one being a large, baroque style in which the general A. B. courses are held.

The beautiful harmonies of black and white, the only colors permitted to be worn, to­ gether with the strains of music from five orchestras finally revealed all which is attlibuted to Vienna. This was a singu­ lar occasion almost lost in a year of spectacular events. In sharp contrast were the bacchanalian conditions which pre­ vailed in Munich for the month-long feast. Ch1istmas was spent in the Alps in a small Austrian vil­ lage. The atmosphere created by the inte1-national crowd as well as that which normally pervades a skiing resort helped to make this Ch1istmas a most enjoyable one. Despite the fact that most of us were away from our homes and families for the first time on this holiday, I think we turned this fact to our own benefit, most of us realizing for the first time e.uctly what Ch1istmas and our family means. We, as most of you probably have, had fallen into the abyss of apathy in which some if not all of the benefits of merely home and parents had been forgotten.

Student tickets are available for next to nothing and the sched­ ule of events is so varied that one could attend a performance at any one of the two operas, four large theaters or three con­ cert halls every evening of the year and still not see the same selection twice. In this regard, there is a surprisingly popu­ lar appreciation of art so that it is not uncommon to see a black leather-coated, black leather-trousered, greasy, sideburned hood completely engrossed in Renoir or Van Dyke. Although social dictates on dress still do have effect when they attend the opera or theater, its unseemly rigidity has no effect on box office attendance. The average university student no1'1llally carries on a tenibly fluent conversation in any field of the arts, something which I dare say would not only not be found on the nOI'lllal U. S. campus but would almost be discouraged as an accepted conversational topic. This alone dlives home in an all too obvious manner one of the basic shortcomings of our society - an appreciation of the arts. It rarely appeat·s in any cur1iculum from plimary to university levels of education, it is seldom mentioned in the home and is verboten in normal discourse. We consequently result in having a people more capable than any other on the face of the present day earth of supp01·ting an almost crumbling pillar of personal expres­ sion.
