With the aid of a solid Catholic upbringing, the religious endeavors and principles of Fordham's offsprings were to be nurtured under her protective wing. The student retreats were considered an integral part of the curriculum that "linked the student to his studies." They were introduced to stave off the "terrible end" toward which the modern world was leading. Thus Fordham maintained that unless students adhered to the motto "Soli Deo" they would never attain life's greatest ambition—the "saving of their immortal souls." Even the 20's editorials, in contrast to the political and cerebral themes of today's, sounded like didactic homilies. The issues raised by the pulpit or principal or parent were simply reiterated there. Typical titles included: "Why Do You Go To College?," "The Message of Christmas," "The Day-Students' Sodality," "Your College Songs," "The Varsity Play," and "Character Defects." •I In direct contrast to the religious theme in student life during the 20\s was the fun-and-game world, the exhortations to be popular, to enjoy, to conform, to support-your-local-talent. Thus the leisure-tradition dichotomy that The Ram sought to juggle into one. /• Perhaps the most successful epitome of this dualistic world, the bridge that spanned both positions, was the revered in- stitution of sports. A 1923 Ram issue assured its readers that the "lighting Maroon eleven" would have the unanimous support of Fordham's boys behind it, egging the team on to certain victory. Loyalty,, conformity, victory: these were the keynotes of the '20's and the directions of The Ram. Reporting with the customary zeal on anything that tended to further the interests of Fordham, The Ram waved the banner loyally, victoriously, and unabashedly for sports. It was sports that would enforce and preserve the Fordham ideal for shaping boys into men, it was sports that would perpetuate a tradition of greatness, foster the virtues of sound body and wholesome competition. It was sports, too, that served as the

Hackett, Bob Stewart, sports editor of the United Press International, Milton Gross of the New York Post, and John Halligan '63, publicity director for the New York Rangers and the National Hockey League, are on a list too long to fully enumerate. It is a difficult task to rate the top events The Ram has covered in the last fifty years. However, on the top of the list has to be the Seven Blocks of Granite which has become synonymous with Fordham' s great tradition. Fordham had two separate editions of this amazing forward wall. The most famous, however, was the 1936-1937 line which featured College and Professional Hall of Famer Alex Wojciechowicz, concensus first-team and ail-Americans Ed Franco and Al Barbatasky, all-American Nat Pierce, John Druze, Leo Paquin and a tough little Italian boy from Brooklyn, Vince Lom- bardi. With this line, the Rams from 1935 to 1937, played 18-2-5 football and were voted number three in the nation in 1937. But the seven blocks didn't do it alone. Coach Frank Leahy, then an assistant to "Sleepy" Jim Crowley, but destined for the Helm's Foundation Hall of Fame, lent a hand as Bill Mulligan, The Rain's sports editor in 1939 wrote when Leary accepted the Head Coaching job at Boston College in that year: "The Seven Blocks of Granite were the springboard to Leahy's present position. He was chiefly responsible for the centers and guards in those heroic combinations. "The fame of the seven blocks has been widespread. We who have followed them so closely have lost perspective of that fact. It took some traveling to discover this mental myopia. In North Carolina, the natives stood in awe of the great Fordham line. One drawling Tarheel opined 'If you ask ten leading coaches who has the best line in the country, nine would say For- dham and the other one would be wrong.' Another with naive humor, Southern style, solemnly asked us if it was true that the Fordham line scrimmaged with the Barnum and Bailey elephants. Of course we told them that such had been the case fora while until Mr. Bailey objected to so many of his elephants becoming injured." Those were idealistic days, days when a Notre Dame student survey revealed that purity is the quality the majority of the Fighlin1 Irish desires most in a girl.

Social Research is no different from any other. "With any research there is bound to be time and money problems," she explained. Rev. O'Neil, who is concerned with the business side of the Institute, noted that there is always a problem in saying that a particular type of program which is successful in one city, can be successful in all. "Different cities have different organizational levels. For example, it is hard to implement something even in New York City because it is so complex," he said. Despite these problems, however, members of the Institute are far from discouraged with their research. "There is no way you can be a scholar particularly in the social sciences without contributing to your field through research," Powers remarked, admitting that all have a need to be "socially useful." Unfortunately, the work of the Institute is unknown to many members of the Fordham community. Yet, the Institute is trying, and trying successfully, not only to learn through active research the methods of solving social problems; but more importantly, is training others in what they have learned. The Institute of Social Research does offer, without doubt, a genuine social service. I Friday, February 16, 1973-THE RAM-Page 5 Compliments . f Best Wishes of
