Standing at attention on the mall in front of the Rockne Memorial on the Notre Dame campus are the 3,000 young men of the naval training stotion at Notre Dame as they appeared this spring from a plane of the Civil Air Patrol. In the foreground are the mid­ shipmen who were commissioned as ensigns May 31. Directly behind them are members of the N. R. O. T. C. at Notre Dame. In the center section are the Marine trainees and back of them are the Navy students enrolled in the University's V-I2 program, now a year old.

The beautification project will be completed with the execution of a World War II memorial. This will be executed by Eugene Kormendi, native of Budapest, Hungai'y, who has been at Notre Dame for the last two years as an artist in residence. At present Mr. Kormendi, who is directing the program, is at work on a statue of Christ the King, which will be about six feet tall and will be placed in the Law Building.

Included in the beautification project is a three-sided drinking fountain, exe­ cuted by William J. Schickel, '44, of Ithaca, N. Y. Tentative plans call for the fountain to be placed in the square in front of the post office. The three sides of the statue depict Christ wash­ ing the feet of his disciples, Christ at the well, and Christ preaching from the boat.

The entire program is not expected to be complete for two years. Mr. Kor­ mendi has done a statue of St. Joseph, Eugene Kormendi. left artist in residence at Notre Dome, and Ber.
