S. Court House El Paso, Texas Aug. n, 1952 Dear Notre Dame Men: I would like by means of this letter to acquaint or reacquaint, as the case may be, each of you with some of the activities of our Alumni Association. The phase that i would like to discuss at this time is Club Activities. Recognizing that Notre Dame Clubs represent Notre Dame in their areas, great stress is placed on club activities by the Club Activities Committee of the Alumni Association. This year, that Committee working closely with Jim Armstrong, the Alumni Secretary, worked out a program for the biennial Club Presidents Council held on the campus in June. The expenses of the Club President, or his alternate, who attends the Council are paid. This year at the Council, there was furnished to the Presidents in attendance a blueprint of the outstanding activities of the various Clubs, with firsthand information as to how these activities had been promoted and carried through to a successful conclusion. Also discussed in detail was Club operation and organization. The Club Presidents Council this year has shown a need for a list of the available campus speakers and their topics, and a closer liaison between the local Clubs and the Alumni Office, both of which needs are receiving the attention of the Alumni Secretary. It is also expected that as a result of the Council, the Club Presidents will keep the Alumni Office more closely informed of their needs and programs. In order to make our Association a stronger and more active one, I would like to ask that each of you take it upon your self to look up and welcome into your Clubs this year's graduates and, further, to resolve to take a more active port in your Club's activities. Sincerely, /s.' HARVEY G.
