They must then carefully com- ^ pute the proportion and size of the pic- ^ ture so that the layout may be accurate. "Dummying" comes next and involves one of the most frustrating and difficult tasks executed in the turmoil of Farley Hall basement. It consists in marking the location and size of each story and picture on its proper page in the "dummy", a mock SCHOLASTIC, with blank pages and measured columns. Advertisements are dummied in ahead ^ of time by the Business Manager on pre- ^ determined pages. Then the department heads arrange their copy in order of importance and length, and fit it into the dummy. A complicating factor of style requires that each two page spread has balance and eye appeal as well as a certain amount of copy and headlines. This entails much editorial measuring, imagination, judgment and good luck in the layout process. Much of this must be done by Sunday night, as photographs for the first form 1^ must be sent to the engraver early on Monday. Commercial engravers convert the cropped prints into dots on zinc plates, so that the ink will not blur and smear on the printed pages. These cuts are delivered to the Ave Maria press, where the SCHOLASTIC is printed, for making up on Tuesday afternoon. On Tuesday morning, the edited and prepared copy is sent over to the Ave Maria to be set up on the linotype and I intertype machines. The copy is con- averted into sticks or solid lines of lead ^type of specified width and length.

It is not the beat, nor the counter-melodies,:^ nor the words of the song, but the jazz and the singer sound, the wonderfully fresh and vital individual perspective that make it Jazz.

Word comes to us about an experience of Tom Carroll, New York Yankee bonus rookie from Notre Dame. Tom spent most of the '55 season on the DAVIN'S PICKS OF THE WEEK bench but got in one game that proved interesting. During the Mayor's Baylor over Texas A & M Trophy exhibition game in New York, Tom pleaded his way to shortstop in Yale over Colgate the eighth inning.

California over California half of the inning, Tom got a pitch he liked and sent it deep to left center, Duke over Pittsburgh for a solid triple. Georgia over Tulane Rounding second, Tom lost his cap but kept legging it toward third. Boston U. over Holy Cross Frank Crosetti, Yankee third base coach, signaled Carroll to hold up. Tom Kentucky over Florida paid no heed to the signal and headed for home. He was out at home sliding Miami (Fla.) over Texas Christian by three yards. Michigan State over Illinois On the way to the dugout, Tom was met by his teammates chanting Michigan over Minnesota "Cheer, cheer for Old Notre Dame. . ."

EDITOR'S NOTIB: AS a matter of fact, John, we weren't thinking at all of Webster's "tradition" but tradition as it is more popularly used, i.e., a sort of social folkway which directs action. This rather excludes Notre Dame lore of which you speak and, by the way, whic we grant old ND has more than its share. We would like to take this opportunity to express some sort of rebuttal to those who criticized the "Tradition" editorial on the basis that there are many reli­ gious "traditions" which were not men­ tioned.

« Does Du Pont hire graduates who are draft eligible?

CHARLES A. STICKELS is currently working toward his B.S.E. degrees in chemical and metallurgical engineering at the Univer­ fi sity of Michigan. Mr. Stickels is past Editor-in-Chief of theMicAf- gan Technic, vice-president of his student chapter of A.I.Ch.E., and a member of several honorary engineering fraternities. His editorial work has made him especially aware of contemporary employment questions facing engineering graduates.
