Cotton Bowl receipts

According to the national press the University received over $340,000 for its appearance in the Cotton Bowl on New Year's Day. The day that Notre Dame announced that it would accept the bid, Father Edmund Joyce, Executive Vice-President and Chairman of the Committee on Athletics, announced that the proceeds from the game would go toward helping minority students come to Notre Dame. . 1 As of yesterday, there was no official word on exactly how much money . the University made, how it was officially to be used, or more importantly, who would sit in on the decision as to how it was to be used. When Joyce made the announcement it was received by the community You've got to hand it to the military-industrial complex, they make and the nation alike as a promise which showed Notre Dame's concern for great coats. the issues of the day and especially for making the opportunity of college education equally available to all. It is regrettable that the University has not said anything about the project since then.

The condemnation of the University for allowing ROTC on cam­ pus for "channeling" its graduates into industry and government, Mardi Gras and for investing in corporations is downright childish. The question of ROTC has been debated back and forth for so We can only reinforce the plea put forth by Mardi Gras chairman Dave long that it has degenerated into the hurling of hackneyed phrases Dewan, for students to get out and sell more chance books. This is the only by both sides. The simple fact of the matter is that the freedom of time all year long that students are asked on a university wide scale to do this nation depends on a strong and effective military. Aggression is something for charity. We really don't think that it is asking too much for deeply imbedded in human nature. I see little hope of eradicating this trait. As long as it exists our only defense will be the military. students to sell twenty dollars worth of chancebooks.

What other It is unfortunate that inducements have to be offered in order to get areas of employment are available to a college graduate? There is students to sell these books.
