(But note the chal­ lenge of these Far Westerners as to the per­ centage of membership present for their UND Night dinner this year.) The practice, begun a year ago, of recog­ nizing the Notre Dame "Man of the Year" in a club community, was vastly extended this year with the presentation of many scrolls by clubs all over the country. As you'll read in the club notes and see in the pictures in this ALUMNUS, the clubs brought to public notice a si.gnificant number of out­ standing Notre Dame men. The Chicago Club continued its prac­ tice of recognizing a Notre Dame faculty member for his contributions to the field of learning. The recipient of the club's Faculty- Award this year was Dr. Eugene Guth, di­ rector of the high polymer physics labDra- tory at Notre Dame, the first such laboratory in the United States. Dr. Guth, who came to Notre Dame in 1937 from the University of Vienna, is known as a top authority on the development of synthetic rubber and cel­ lulose products.

Coach Leahy's chief cause for concern during the spring drills centered around the loss by graduation of such stalwart line­ men as Bill Fischer, Marty Wendell, Jack Fallon, Frank Gaul and Ted Budynkiewicz. .And the gaps left in the Notre Dame line by the departure of the aforementioned stal­ warts resulted in much experierantation by Coach Leahy and his staflf during spring practice. As the Varsity-Old Timers game wound up spring drills, Co-Captain Jim Martin manned one of the number one tackle berths after being switched from his end position, while Bob Toneff, who will move up from the freshman team next fall, apparently had a firm hold on the other tackle spot. Be­ hind Martin and Toneff were Ralph Mc- Gehee and Gus Cifelli, both of whom won monograms last season. And at the guard positions, replacing Wendell and Fischer, were Frank Johnson, who saw considerable action last season, and Fred Wallner, whom Coach Leahy moved to guard from his erstwhile fullback position.

The furnishing of each lounge cost ap­ proximately $1,400, which was provided, ini­ tially, by the University. But this is a stu­ dents' project and so, over a period of three years, the students (present and fu­ ture) in the three halls will jpay the first cost back to the school by means of indi­ vidual pledges. Students are not only financing the new lounges, they are also operating them. Each hall has a house committee which sets up rules. And the rules are obeyed — or else. The student, very rare, who inasts on chat­ tering during quiet hours finds himself pro­ pelled to the outer regions. What do the the rectors concerned think of the new plan? (They are Rev. Frederick Gassensmith, c.s.c. (Breen-Phillips), Rev.

A LL the comforts of home — except the ^^ cookie jar — arc provided in the new basement lounges which have been furnished by freshmen in Breen-Phillips, Farley and Zahm halls. Colorful rugs, couches, eas>- chairs and lamps, plus tables for those with written work to do, provide comfortable and attractive study spots for students living in rooms crowded by the University's rapid expansion. There arc current magazines, too, and book shelves will be added later.

•Theodore Hesbiirgh, ' c.s.c: (Farlt^)' and Rev. Charles McCarragher, cs.c. (Zahm). They're enthusiastic, to a man. "A year ago," said Father Hesburgh, "you couldn't make me believe that a thing like this could work in a freshman hall. Yet, there it is, and students run every­ thing." Questioned as to the clean, neat appear­ ance of a lounge early one morning. Father McCarragher explained, "Thb room hasn't been touched since the students left it last night. They put everything in order, even cleaned out the ash trays, before they left." (Mothers and prospective wives, please note.) "The lounge was so popular during the colder months," said Father Gassensmith, "that the time which one student could spend in it had to be limited. But every­ body cooperated wonderfully."
