The capitalization of the Notre Dame spirit by those outside the university circle as an inspiration and guide for other collegiate groups is not uncommon, but we have seldom found a more typical example than the reprint from The Indiana Alnmnas, writ­ ten by the Hon. William Lowe Bryan, LL.D., 1917, president of Indiana university. The story, which, by the way, is true in every detail, has occasioned comment. Men of recent years know the "David" extremely well—he is typically one of the "Old Guard"—one of those men whose four years at Notre Dame were crowded with activity and who left the campus with every member of the community and every student his friend. 108 The Notre Dame Alumnus
