Buffalo On June 17, the Buffalo Alumni Club made it possible for almost 100 Notre Dame men in wes­ tern New York to get together for the first time since their campus days. A highly successful stag outing \%-as held in Mayor's Park, North Tonawan- da, for all Notre Dame men within a 100-mile ra­ dius of Buffalo. The idea for sucli a party grew out of a sug­ gestion by Joe R^-an, *39, last winter. He wrote to many Notre Dame men outside of Buffalo at that time to see if many would be interested. It was vcr>- much approved and plans were started. Invitations were extended to many cities, large and small, as far as Rochester and Erie, Pa.; m?n from Dunkirk, Medina, Batavia, Middlcport, Aldcn, East Aurora and many others. Dick Thoen and Ted Flanigan assumed the re- ^onsibility of coordinating committees. Their big­ gest problem was estimating the number expected because all contact had to be made by long dis­ tance and by mail. Joe Battaglla handled the food; Tony Brick, the park arrangements; Tom Kelly, the publicity, and Jim Fitzgerald, the prizes. Jim had something for Athletic Director Ed Krause, 34, at right with George Munger, head footbaU coach at e\er>'one whether he earned it or not.

Columbus The last meeting of the Notre Dame Alumni Club of Columbus, Ohio, was c:alled to order on May 18, 1950. As is the usual practice the monthly meet­ ings will be dispensed with during the summer montlis. However plans for the golf party at the Columbus Country Club were discussed, and also plans for the annual fbh fry that is held during the latter part of the summer. Both of these events will be held during the sum­ mer months and the club has high hopes that both events will meet with success as they have in the past. Doc Tom Hui^cs was appointed chairman of the summer activities committee. Condolence is extended to v-pres. Joe Ryan on the recent death of his sister, Mrs. Mary Daugherty of Columbus.

In sequence — since last reporting—the Club's formal Annual Meeting took form at the Biltmore on January 11 with the night being more or less dedicated to the Missions. Father Jcc EngHtfc '37 brought in a film entitled "The Miracle of the Blue Cloud Country." Acclaimed by Hollywood, this 20>minute on-the-scene documentary film by the Maryknoll Fathers tells the true and amazing story of a veteran missioner in the Blue Cloud Country of China where no priest has ever pene­ trated before and of how he caused over 12,000 fronversions. To the Alumni club looking for at­ tractions to their meetings contact the nearest Maryknoll priest for a talk and the booking of this film. Our February meeting at the Biltmore — (the present monthly meeting place tmtil we take over the Empire State Building or build our own) brought about an extremely well versed speaker in former Naval Intelligence Commander ^^nce Hart- •ett '37 who afforded the 200 Alumni present a detailed expose of the communist conspiracy to ccmtrol our radio and television today.

To the Class of '25: For 25 years I have frankly, if modestly, The Irish Navy maintained that the Class of 1925 was the greatest Class In the history- of the Univer­ sity, In anticipation of our Silver Jubilee I confidently predicted that new precedents would be set, new heights reached. And on the strength of this long-range defense of our colors, I was instrumental in asking you to create a lovely precedent In the &femorIal Room for Johnny Weibel. Well, all of your response was gratifying. I was sitting at tha Class Dinner peacefully minding your business, beaming with a sort of paternal pride in your outstanding vindi­ cation of all my most extrax'agant claims. Then it happened. Usually I recover my power of speech quickly. If lost. But I am still at a loss to express to you the personal thrill that leaves that overworked word in­ adequate. The car is wonderful (It came in time to give son Phil a ride on the day before he left for the Holy Cross Brothers novitiate). And it has served as a real tonic for Marion (Mrs.) who had been in bed for a month's rest cure. But to me the payoff of your generous and completely surprising tribute was the accompanying book of greetings. There are always friends and enthusiasts in testimonial gifts, but usually there are twisted arms. Any fears I may have had in this instance were happily dissipated when I read the treasured greetings from you. Those do not come from twisted arms. "Thanks" — from Marlon, from Jack. Dick, Phil, Grcgor>- and Douglas, who feel more kindly now toward fatherless nights and weekends during the years—is most un­ satisfactory. May I simply say that we do thank you, and if the car is an appreciation of the job done between 1925 and 1950, I hope that the job done between 1950 and 1975 will express an appreciation of the car.

"Too bad we do not have a directory" is the expression of Art Klisc from Wooster, Ohio. Art wrote that he had just arrived in Wooster from Illinois and was leaving the next day for Texas. Be­ ing in the oil and gas business since graduation, it appears that he is one of the heavy travelers of the Class. He spends his time jumpini; around throu'^h Texas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Illinois and Ohio, wherever his company has wells, but he has not seen in all of his travels anyone from N.D. Per­ haps, Art, your idea of a directory will bear some fruit. There already has been some discussion of sending each member of the clais a roster so that those who wanted could find their cla:smates. Of course, like always when any project of this kind is thought about, one of the first things that comes to mind is the expense. However, this is bcin^ ex­ plored and we hope each member of the class will secure a complete roster in the not too distant future.

If the class wanted to do a big promotion job in the way of getting 100 per cent return for the reunion next year, it might be that Jerry McDcr- mott could cover the country with billboards for he has been with the General Outdoor .Advertising Co. since 1927.
