Speaking on WND's "Intei-view of the Week" on Tuesday night, Dick McDonald, a member of the original Dillon group, explained how the thing started. His cohorts thought that the campus needed something special in the way of rallies for tomorrow's crucial contest. They began making signs and took the bonfire suggestion to University authorities. He stated that both the rally organi­ zers and the University hoped that ND men would not stage any impromptu rallies off-campus.

Reading Well Important The imprtance of reading well in col­ lege cannot be overemphasized. It serves the average student both as a means to the greater part of his learning and as a form of entertainment. After grad­ uation the student will find that he has to keep up his reading in his w^ork. The businessman reading and answering let­ ters, the lawyer digging through cases, the doctor keeping up with advances in the profession, all these find reading a necessary part of their work. How well and how fast they can read may be the margin between mediocrity and suc­ cess. .However, most of us have had no in­ struction in the technique of reading since the 5th or 6th grade. Consequently, most Americans read at about an 8th grade level. They may read more diffi­ cult material, but their skill in the me­ chanics of reading has not increased ap-

Alumni Scores Second Shutout Paced by the scintillating running of their fleet-footed left halfback, Jerry Derivaux, and with the aid of some timely interceptions, Alumni rolled over the Off-Campus eleven, 14-0. It was the second straight game in which Alumni has shut out their opponents. Derivaux got his hands on the ball only three times but on each occasion he went all the way to score. One jaunt went for naught because of a holding penalty. Early in the second period Derivaux intercepted an Oflf-Campus aerial and ran it back 40 yards for a touchdo\vn.

30 The Scholastic YEARS AGO -By BOB FINNEY, '53

Fifty Years Ago From the Oct. 27, 1900 SCHOLASTIC: The first bi-monthly exams of the year were completed. "Those who did their best during the last two months and failed for lack of a system, or because they took too much work upon them­ selves, deserve sympathy." . . . Although entrance qualifications for the College of Law were raised, the number of st\i- dents enrolled was expected to increase from 70 to 100 during the year Captain John Faz-ley, "outstanding half­ back in the west," scored two touch­ downs and led Notre Dame to a 56-0 win over Cincinnati University.

Twenty-five Years Ago From the Oct. 30, 1925 SCHOLASTIC: The annual Homecoming was set for the Carnegie Tech game. As in previous years some 2500 pounds of beef and pork were donated by 0. A. Clark, din­ ing hall manager, for an open-pit bax-be- cue as part of the celebration. . . . The old Notre Dame jinx, fire, destroyed part of the third floor of Corby Hall, but was stopped before any serious damage occurred. . . . The Irish defeated Minne­ sota, 19-7, in Minneapolis as the student trippers looked on. ... In a survey of the campus newsstand in the Main Building, it was found that best-selling newspapers Avere the Chicago Tribune and the South Bend Neivs-Times. The Saturday Evening Post outsold all other weeklies, and Notre Dame students pre­ ferred Cosmopolitan and Redbook among the monthly magazines.

Ten Years Ago From the Oct. 25, 1940 SCHOLASTIC: Student trippers were ready to leave for New York and the Army game the fol­ lowing Thursday. They would arrive at South Bend again early Monday morn­ ing. . . . Excavation began on the $65,000 Heat-Power Laboratory north of the Ave Maria printing offices. . . . The football roster showed 17 men who were eligible for the draft under the new draft laws; 841 students were regis­ tered, but engineering and medical stu­ dents were to be deferred. . . . The Irish beat Carnegie Tech, 61-0 for their third straight win. .
