l» MEMORIES, memories... Four years have almost passed. In two weeks the Class of 1955 will graduate. We shall leave Notre Dame. But we shall take Notre Dame with us. Though scattered all over the nation and even the world, we shall each take with us memories and impressions and habits formed dur­ ing our stay here. In the background are the least important memories. These will in­ clude our first drenching by a Northern Indiana deluge during freshman registration and the frequently unpleasant weather since, the grade re­ ceived on a test, the times we didn't make enough morning checks. Then, too, there were the long lines at the Bookstore and the Dining Hall which led to the disappointment of finding a book sold out or not yet arrived, or to one of the meals for which we had little taste. Add to these the sur­ prise quiz, the ever-busy phones at St. Mary's, lights out at 11 or midnight . . . and you've got some of the trivial things that will fade into a haze as time passes. Then, there are bigger things, like Notre Dame football and class dances. What despair we felt when Fred Bennere and Southern Methodist shattered the Irish in our freshman year. But what a thrill it was to sit in the stadium and see our boys triumph over Oklahoma in 1952 and tie Iowa in the closing seconds in 1953. Always there was a strong bond. As for the class dances ... they were always enjoyed, especially the Senior Ball. We'll always remember friends from Notre Dame. Each of us has many acquaintances and friends whom we met here. They are students, priests, professors. Some we'll see again; most we won't. But they've made our stay here all the better and they'll contribute to the wealth of memories. Most of all, we shall carry away with us the Catholic education at­ tained through four years and the habits formed during that time. Some things we have learned well in the classroom, others not. But we have had an opportunity few people ever receive—that of living for a long time in a Why? community where the sacraments may be received daily a few steps away; where a priest is always close at hand for advice and help. Ours has There was a fire in Fisher Hall early been a wonderful opportunity. Monday morning. It was small and the damage was slight.

' far ahead of its imports. "This accounts for the confidence that foreign compa­ nies have when they look to Venezuela as a place to invest," Clamens said. "The capital of the foreign companies is mo­ bile and dividend payments may be made without difficulty." The oil industry was first established in 1920. It is flourishing now in the eastern section of the country and in the Lake Maracaibo district where oil wells can be seen on the lake itself. Another industry which promises to enrich the country is iron ore mining. Ore of very high quality was discovered recently. In 1953, over 2,275,000 tons were extracted, primarily by United States Steel Corp. Venezuela's government is now a mili­ tary dictatorship headed by Marcos Perez-Jiminez, who was characterized by Clamens as "an extremely capable strong man." Although the government is a dictatorship, it has demonstrated its belief in the responsibilities of gov­ ernment by carrying out numerous proj­ ects for the benefit of its citizens, Cla­ mens said. These projects include public education, housing, highway construc­ tion, and labor legislation. Because of the increased prosperity brought about by oil production, educa­ tion has made rapid strides forward in Venezuela. The ordinary laborer is now able to educate his children. In spite of the progress made in education, a large (Continued on page 30)

During the day, as the girls arrived from near and far, everybody seemed to sense that this would be an unforget­ table day . . . the social climax of the year ... a grand finale to college life . . . the Golden Anniversary of a proud tradition. "And when those Saints go marching by . . ." Long hours of work had transformed the stern Drill Hall interior into a daz­ zling replica of a Southern mansion. Costumed footmen escorted the couples thi"ough the entrance and onto a plat- fonn overlooking a colorful pond and garden. Beyond was the ballroom lined with pillars and a white fence. And seated at the far end was the orchestra of Ralph Marterie, a true gentleman of the Old South (Chicago). Dui-ing intermission, an authentic touch of Dixieland was added by Jimmy McShane's crew, all fine exponents of the old tw^o-four beat. Queen of the Ball was Miss Eileen Hennessy, a St. Mary's junior and date of Chairman Jim Griffin. She reigned over festivities happily unique in the memories of most seniors. ' For this was the Golden Anniversary Senior Ball— an impressive conclusion for their years under the Golden Dome! Relaxing during the Dixieland intermission

Erskine Country Club added to the weekend's Southern spirit. Saturday- It was 3 a.m. Saturday morning when the weary but happy seniors dragged themselves back to their halls after the Ball. And it was another half-hour be­ fore most of them managed to escape from their confining tuxedos. Also there was the inevitable groping on the floor for dropped studs and cuff links (a^ usual, the lights had been turned off ai^ midnight.) Finally, rest! Ring! Hours seemingly passed in minutes, for alarm clocks were hei-ald- ing a new day of fun . . . though for some there were unavoidable morning classes to dispose of first. Then, where to? Many stayed around campus to tour the grounds and buildings with their im­ ported dates. Topping the list of cam^ pus attractions was the Engineering Open House with its exliibits, air and auto shows, and the annual chariot race. Later, these couples had their choice of traveling to School Field where the Old-Timers surprised next fall's varsity football team, or of visiting Cartier Field where both a baseball game and a track meet were in progress. But for the adventurous ones who wanted to take full advantage of week­ end car permissions, this warm, sunn^^^ afternoon demanded a trip to the Dunes. Who cared whether the frigid waves of Lake Michigan numbed even the hardiest swimmers? This was a truly carefi'ee day. Evening came, bringing back with it the long caravans of picnickers.

Aubrey mmmm Le\\is, probably the fastest and most spectacular back to hit the Irish scene in many moons; Dick Wilkins, another sprinter who can really dash; Chuck Lima, the star who outshone the All-Americans in the Old-Timers game; and Dick Lynch will provide solid second-line strength. The secondary strength in the line is the question of the hour and it won't be answered until mid-October. The resodding operations in the Stadium gave the fans a break during spring practice. The Cartier Field practice sessions gave the fans a chance to watch the "Yarrs" in action. Let's hope that Brennan keeps the drills open next year. It's certainly a step in the direction of building interest and spirit. It's about that time of year when we sign off.
