Notre Dame men, through the ALUMNUS, take this opportunity to extend congratulations to head coach Elmer Layden, '25, his assistants, and the varsity squad of 1938. An alumni-coached team in an alumni-administered college must always advance alumni interest and enthusiasm. When it is accompanied by victories, as in the 1938 season, naturally both are intensified. And when, in defeat, as in the ultimate reversal at Southern California, appear those things deeper than victory, which Notre Dame has always taught, and which informed American sportsmanship under the leadership of Knute K. Rockne, '14, then alumni everywhere rejoice. The football season of 1938 has produced—and nothing more complimentary could be said—another company of Notre Dame men who take their places with '88, '03, '09, '24, '29, '30,, and other Notre Dame immortals beloved but less sung.

The New York club had previously planned a Com­ munion-breakfast for that morning in which the success of the Pan- American conference would be the chief spiritual objective.

Previously, in 1933-34, Worth was assistant attorney general in his home state. Research brings to light many in­ teresting things about Senator-elect Clark; throughout his four years at Notre Dame he was prominent in campus activities. An honor student, he was a member of the varsity de­ bating team and the Commencement orator for his class. On the social side, he was a member of the Senior Ball committee in 1922 and was ac­ tive as well in the guidance of other formal dances.
