Dear Sir: May I add my "two-bits worth" to the suggestion of one, Thomas Auchler (SCHOLASTIC, March 7, 1947) regarding the houi-s of the library? Since it is the policy of the university (and rightly so) that some outside read­ ing be required in many of the courses, it hardly seems logical that the library 19 Trains Daily to CHICAGO should keep such short hours. I hardly think that it is a matter of insufficient First two morning trains leave South Bend at 6:00 A.M. and 6:50 A.M. Beginning at 7:30 A.M. and help, as I believe that many students until 9:30 P.M. there is a train every hour leaving would be happy to have a chance to earn at 30 minutes past the hour. The last two trains part of their tuition by working in the leave at 11:00 P.M. and 12:00 Midnight. Hourly service from Chicago, too. For travel information library.

For my money, the SCHOLASTIC is the best college magazine on any campus.

Dear Sir: Just who . . . does this O'Connor, who puts out his diatribes in his column, "The Week," think he is. He's certainly not a humorist. Sure, Mac, the army (and the navy) was no picnic, but the SOUTHSHORE majority of men left their gripes at the separation center, and took a new lease on life, tucked in the pocket of the new brown gabardine suit. But some few disillusioned strategists carried these gripes over into a college news magazine in the form of humor? Better read DANCING every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday what humor really is by scanning "The Week" column in the Scholastic of 1942- at the 43 when Jack Woelf le was the author. I suggest, also, that if the service be men­ tioned at all, it be with genuine humor, as illustrated by Joe Wilcox's article in the March 14 issue of ScholaMic. And O'Connor's remark in the column (March 14) about Jews should never have gotten into print. This is a Cath­ olic university and such Anti-Semitism has no place here, even in the form of "humor." The Irish would do well to disown one John A. O'Connor, since the majority of them do not claim glory for themselves by virtue of the Superman drivel and making slurring remarks about members of the Hebrew national­ ity. The Blue Circle might condemn him, as they did the author of the Dining Hall employees letter. Incidentally, Mr. O'Connor, I'm neither Irish nor Hebrew, and I, too, was an enlisted man (navy).

Congratulations to a great basketball squad that ranks as one of the finest ever to represent Notre Dame. The 1946-47 Fighting Irish quintet deserves a lot of credit for the brilliant showing made during the season recently concluded. When we started practice last Fall our outlook was questionable. Most of the boys had just returned from service and had played little if any ball during the war. The cooperation and hard work dis­ played by members of this year's squad made it possible for the Notre Dame team to be ranked No. 2 in the nation at the con­ clusion of the season.

33 REVIEW and COMMENT By IIM LARRICK Headquarters

Diamond Tiaras Something of the flavor of America for from the opening days of the century through World War I has been resuri-ect- ed in Victor's Heritage Series. The days of the carriage and the elegant parties, the glittering diamond horseshoe at the old Met, the first families who made ARROW firstnights as a matter of pride and tra­ dition, are all captured in these re- recordings of Caruso, Alda, Joumet. Tet- ra/zini and Ancona. SHIRTS and TIES

They have been perpetuated on EGA Victor "Red Seal," De Luxe Records at $3.68 apiece. This seems, and is, quite a price for a single record, but they are magnificently re-recorded on plastic. Scratch is at a minimum and the voices are produced fully, clearly and vnth little distortion.

Caruso sings, Rachel, Quand Du Seig­ neur (Hale\'j''s "La Juive"), Je Suis GILBERT'S Seul and Ah! Fuyez, Douce Image (from 813-817 S. Michigan St. Massenet's "Manon"). Record No. 15- 1004. Alda sings Salce, Salce (from Verdi's "Otello") and Ave Maria (from Verdi's "Otello"). Record No. 15-1000. Tetrazzini sings Voe Che Sapete (Mo­ zart, "Marriage of Figaro") and lo Son Titania (Thomas, "Mignon"). Record No. 15-1001. Joumet sings Piff! Piff! (Meyerbeer, "Les Huguenots" and Au Bruit Lourd Marteaux (Gounod "Philemon et Bau­ cis"). Record No. 15-1003. So, if you want to hear why your mother and father look dreamy-eyed when they speak of the old days, listen to these records. They are magnificent examples of the old masters who sang in spite of starched, choking collars and stiff whalebone.

Perhaps the entrance of M-G-M and other financially powerful concerns into the field will force prices down; perhaps new methods of record­ ing (wire, steel and paper tape, etc.), will help bring records down in price or up in musical quality. It's a rosy day in the distance when decent recordings can be bought for a decent price.

N.D. Glee Club Sinss At Indianapolis School Under the auspices of the Bemadette Forum, the University Glee Club, di­ rected by Professor Daniel H. Pedtke, F.A.G.O., presented a concert in Ca­ thedral High school, Indianapolis. The versatile choristers gave such a varied program that it included songs ranging all the way from grand opera to popular music.

The soloists included Lawrence Madi- gan, Nolan Sheehan, Roy O'Neil, John Owen, and Tom "Tootoo" Devine, all of whom were well received. As an encore to one of his numbers, Roy O'Neil sang "Beholden," by Glee Club member Ed Cashman, from the hit musical. Meet the Missus.
