If no further revisions are planned for this year, we can suggest art editor one that is at least worthy of consideration: abolish the offices of the College Senators.

Do we face our problems squarely and conquer them or do we sidestep them by refusing to engage? Boys learn - ^.i.i.,-..- ji , ^ about life through boxing. With boxing as with every other sport, it all depends on "who's running the show." Did America prohibit baseball because of the Black Sox? Have horses stopped racing because of crooked jockeys or trainers? Have we given up basketball because of "point shavers"? Why then should pro-boxing's evils affect college boxing? Notre Dame provides an entirely different atmosphere and these bouts are well run. There are none of the sordid characters at Notre Dame that are hanging around some professional boxing circles, or some race tracks, or some night clubs, etc., etc. Many college lads who have never had the experience of "putting on the gloves" (due to poor physical education programs or sheltered boyhoods) are given the opportunity of a rewarding experience. Boxing needs no excuse (like the Bengal Missions) to exist at Notre Dame. There is a good enough reason for boxing — because boxing spells out physical fitness, self-sacrifice, determination and courage. We can help our youth and boxing by continuing to present well- run boxing by continuing to present well-run boxing shows. Very Truly Yours, Charles F. Waters In the off season . .
