Almost as large was the Baccalaureate Mass crowd, assembled in the Gymnasi­ um in the morning of Sunday, to hear the brilliant sermon of Most Rev. George L. Leech, D.D., bishop of Harrisburg.

In spite of the record- breaking reunion groups of the 1917 and 1922 Classes, total alumni registration and banquet attendance was only one- third that of 1941. However, in view of general conditions, the large number of younger alumni in service, and the ina­ bility of the Univer­ sity to house the alumni on the cam­ pus, the crowd was up to expectations.

Rather, a refining process took place. What was irregular in any specific era was ferreted out and destroyed. Otherwise we would have in­ herited none of the culture of the past. All would have been lost in complete chaos. Nothing is farther from the his­ torical truth.

Civilization Under Attack At present our civilization is under attack. In this refining process it is well to evaluate just what America is fight­ ing for. More than a century and a half ago the fathers of our country expressed the solemn belief that government should be man's democratically chosen agent for the protection of God's gifts of life, liber­ ty, and the pursuit of happiness. Out of their belief, and their willingness to fight for it, came the form and substance of American government of the people, by the people, for the i>eople. Now that heritage, bom in struggle and sacrifice, is being attacked by forces that would destroy the dignity and integrity of the

TENNIS CHAMPIONS OF THE WEST Prof. Walter M. Langford's squad was, without any question, the strongest ever to represent Notre Dame. It was the first undefeated Notre Dame team since 1927, and the second in history. The Irish marched through their matches with Michigan State, Michigan's Big Ten champions, Illinois, Kentucky, Western Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Chicago, and Northwestern in that order. They didn't overpower all opposition— they had to fight for several of their victories, coining from behind on more than one occasion. Michigan, with only one man missing from its conference championship unit of last year, with the advantage of playing on its home courts, and with the added advantage of indoor practice facilities, lost a thrilling 6 to 3 decision April 18. The rest appeared to be fairly easy, until the final matches with Chicago and Northwestern. But Illinois and Western Michigan proved sterner competition than was anticipated, holding Notre Dame to twin 5-4 decisions. The Chicago match was another battle, Notre Dame Tfce flneit eoUexiate tennis teaa of tke aeaam is the IBMIe We»t (aad the «»e»t ia Metre Da»e liistorT) took nine atraidit Tietoriee acainit ne defeat*.

Meanwhile, Notre Dame has just greeted its second Navy indoctrination group of 1,100 commis­ sioned officers who will be completing their six-week course at tournament time. All of the indoctrinees are college graduates. Bill Fisher is leading in scoring with 20% points to his credit, and an average of 74 strokes per round for 11 rounds. Gene Fehlig is only a step behind with 18% points and a 74 average for 10 rounds. John Conry has collected 18 U points also, and is averaging 76-plus aft­ er 11 rounds. Paul Malloy, averaging 78, has made 11% points. Jack Harrigan, with 11 points, has an average of 76.4 for five rounds. Bill Moorehead, with 8 points, is averaging 78.5. Tom Nash, Jr., with 7% points, has averaged 78.8. Capt. Bill Wilson has made 7% points with his 78 average. There was a noticeable drop in scores in the later weeks, and it is not beyond the realm of possibility that, come tour- jiament time, the Irish will be consistent and balanced enough to finish among the nation's leaders.

A separate Alumni College day or week-end, return of small groups of alunmi by departments, visits of profes­ sors to the clubs for academic discus­ sions, — there are many ways we can accomplish an objective that can only benefit alumni. What's your suggestion? Or preference? In the absence of hall residence, the Alumni Office arranged, through local class chairmen and the University, for class headquarters on the campus for Saturday. The 1922 class held forth in Classmate and Dean Pat Manion's Law Building. Walsh Hall and the K. of C. rooms sheltered Chairman Joe Boland and his 1927 men in the street. Dom Napolitano and his '32 boys were on a wheel-of-f ortnne that finally evaded gen­ eral campus student storage and wound up in the Breen-Phillips ticket offices of the Athletic Association. Bemie Voll actually supplied the 1917 headquarters in his country home, although Breen- FhiUips was nominally the Silver Jubilee center. And 1937 kept the old formulas, functioning in the Engineering Building. These headquarters, the Alumni Office, and the smaller crowd, seem to have al­ lowed everyone's path to cross everyone else's in more than the recent fashion, and to have restored a little of the older and perhaps more fraternal lack of class demarcation. The alumni banquet, ar­ range on a catch-as-catch-can seating basis this year in the absence of ad­ vance estimates, proved a very happy exhibit of the transcending quality of the spirit of Notre Dame.

The Notre Dame Alumnus 21 Military Note Stressed on U-N.D. Night

Nineteenth Annual Event is Featured by "Meet Your Navy" Broadcast from the Gimpis; Qubs Join Everywhere with Military Representatives.

The extent and variety of Universal Notre Dame Night, 1942, are told better in the colvunns of club news which fol­ low than they could possibly be told in any other way. Please, therefore, read on and on, after these introductory words. The emphasis was, of course, on the military, and most fittingly.

On the campus, April 17 had been des­ ignated as the official opening day for the V-7 naval training school. With ap­ propriate ceremonies and addresses, in Washington Hall, by Kev. Hugh O'Don- nell, C.S.C., president, Capt. H. P. Bur­ nett, commanding officer, and Command­ er Gene Tunney, the 900 trainees were introduced to their new duties and to Notre Dame. Many photographers, out- of-town newspaper reporters and a news- reel company were present to record the day. At the "Meet Yoar Naiy" btMdcaat im tW Grmz Ltft t* ri^t.

I spent an evening with Mike Ricks and Emmett Fergnson in Lafayette, Ind., recently. Mike was celebrating the arrival of his fourth child. He is practicing law in Lafayette. He mentioned that he visited Dr. Frank Hegarty and Dr. Dave Sol^ mon last summer. Frank, as you know is now at Fort Meade. Doc Solomon has a very fine practice in Ebensburs, Pa. Emmett Ferguson, who is a judge in Lafayette, is the Democratic candidate for Congress from that district. Bin Jones tells me that Elmer Wynne was In Washington recently. Elmer is with the Surplus Marketing Corporation in San Francisco. He is still a bachelor so jwssibly you can guess what his mission to D. C. was all about. Congressman Bob Grant is very happy these days as he announces he is the father of a baby boy. Bexnie Garber is another who experienced fatherhood for the first time this month. Yes.
