A NEGATIVE ANALYSIS: For perhaps too long a time American college students have been continually urged to develop an "awareness" of problems MMmk of national and international concern. Most campuses have seen the formation of political clubs representing almost every degree of deviation from center. n Vol. 103 No. 2 Positions have been formulated by these student groups, which, for breadth October 6, 1961 of purpose and complexity of statement, rival the profoundest pronounce­ [ ments of the great political philosophers of the Christian West. One cannot, of course, condemn the rise of undergraduate "awareness." Nor can one take particular exception to the articulation of such awareness Founded 1867 through student political groups. However, when such groups, often involving some of the ablest students on a campus, project positions which, for them, are simply irrelevant or impracticable — then they become nothing but corrals for deracinated activists. editor-in-chief There's NSA, for example. Reading this week's article on the NSA conven­ THOMAS WEISS tion last summer, we began to have some misgivings about the organization from a number of points of view.

The man saying "I live next to a 'jock'," says it not with disgust but with pride in having some association with the Dabieros, Rutkovvskis, or Snow- dens.

Make no doubt about it, Purdue will be tough. They want to push the Irish's noses into the ground some more a la last Oct. 1. Notre Dame will be just as determined to right last year's wrong. The meeting tomorrow at Ross-Ade Stadium should be an interesting one indeed.

DABIERO AND LIND The team as a whole was very impressive in the opening 19-6 win over a good Oklahoma eleven. The Irish blocked crisply on offense, as evidenced by the 176 yards gained by the smallish Dabiero and the 121 yards by the bullish Land. Dabiero on his 51-yard scoring scamper got key blocks from Roy, Sefcik, Lehman and Murphy. Senior end Les Traver eliminated the last Oklahoma defender, Mike McQellan, on Check our Lind's 23-yard visit to the end zone. The backs also helped by setting I®- up the blockers and waiting for the block to be thrown. On defense, the Irish left something to be desired when confronted with an Oklahoma pass.
