For those burdened with curfews (now what school across the Dixie would that be?) there will be carpets for couples leaving every five minutes from the circle. K. OF C.

Questions Answered

This week a great step was taken toward the creation of better under­ standing between students and the University administration. We are referring to the new program on WNDU, which was first presented yes­ terday, on which Fathers Hesburgh, Joyce, McCarragher and Norton answered questions and complaints that you submitted. Many of us go through four or more years of training at Notre Dame with any number of questions or complaints in our minds; questions or complaints that most often are never voiced to the proper person for an­ swers. This was plainly evident last March 27 at a banquet attended by over 100 seniors, the above-named and other priests of the Univer­ sity. Following the dinner, the seniors had the opportunity of firing their questions and complaints at the officials, who answered them as well as they could. Many of the queries were about things that had bothered the student for one or more years of his time here, things that almost any Concerning Elections student might wonder about and never find the answer for on his own.

HE DEBATING TEAM of the University of Notre Dame recently Ttopped its most successful season in seven years by taking- fifth place in the National Debate Tournament held at West Point. The National Debate Tour­ nament is the "World Series" of debat­ ing. A team's showing there is the basis for its national rating. Just to reach the National Tournament is a feat in itself. Of the five hundred debating teams in the country, only thirty-five go to the Nationals. The country is divided into regions usually encompassing five states. Each of these regions sends five teams to the Nationals. Notre Dame was first at the regional tournament held at Purdue with a per­ m fect score—six wins against no losses. mmt^:^^f^^^^- This is the uaual perfonnance turned in by the debating team Avhich has the Coach and Officers: (left to right) President Chuck Doherty, Coach Leonard F. unusual record of 229 wins against 35 losses for this year, and the extraor­ Sommer, future President Dick Schiller, and Novice Instructor Allan Riley. dinary record of 1292 wins against 286 losses for the past ten years! sent.

"Di-eanis come true in Blue Hawaii."^ That's a line from one of the more fa­ mous songs of the Islands, and seems to be an apt description of last week­ end's annual Freshman Frolic. The long-patient Freshman class final­ ly got a chance to show up rival upper- class socialites; needless to say, they took full advantage of the opportunity. There is a long-standing tradition around campus that claims the Frosh ^ outshine all others in selecting attrac-' tive dates for their yearly twirl. Cer­ tainly, this spring was no exception.

Decor and Music Praised Over 350 local and imported beauties graced the LaFortune Student Center at last Friday night's fun-filled Frolic. Its theme—"Hawaiian Holiday"—apparent­ ly brought out their imaginative best from both Bob Duify's decorations com­ 6 mittee and the seldom-i-eliable South Bend weatherman. Many dance-goers could be heard praising the light, color­ ful decorations that established a sunny atmosphere indoors; and everybody was happy about the clear, blue sky and warm breezes that continued throughout the weekend. Couples danced under a make-believe outdoor pavilion and palm trees ... a Frosh enthusiasm runs high during "Hawaiian Holiday" strolling troubador twanged out relax­ ing Island melodies on his guitar . . . i-efreshments were served in the "Cocoa- nut Grove" and "Hawaiian" rooms.
