In addition to these, wc duicovered at the Reunion that one more had died. He was AL ANDREOXI. We ask that you add his name to your prayers in the coming years. Our Memorial Mass on Saturdav morning, celebrated by FATHER VIXCE THIL- MAN, was well attended and the Communions >v-ere impressive. Several questionnaires raised queries regarding a financial report from the 1950 Reunion. While wc are sure that those raising the questions had only an inquisitive interest in the matter, to put ever%'- •one's mind at rest regarding the 1955 Reunion, ^ve have asked the Committee for their financial statement. There were total receipts of $1,064 and total dis­ bursements of $950.32. Of the $1,064 in receipts, S931 represented fees paid by 174 men. The re­ maining $133 was collected as miscellaneous con­ tributions at the Reunion. To make the financial report complete, wc think it should be obscr\-ed that there were five attend­ ing the 1935 Class 20th Reunion party who did not make their $5 class contribution. Of these, four were '35ers and one was from a bordering KANSAS CITY — Craig \Vhitaker (R) chairman of the ND Club's William Rockhill Nelson class.

Lathe Works. Notre Dame Alumnus, November-December, 1955 63 The Alumni Association University of Notre Dame

Fellow Alumni: Novembers, 1955 Since the last communication we have seen many rcmarkable changes on the campus, the Pangbom Residence Hall, Notre Dame Book Store, Sculpture Studio and AVNDU-TV Station.

The Pangbom Residence Hall is located between Fisher Hall and The Rockne Memorial. The Notre Dame Book Store is the gift of Mr. and Mrs. Romy Hammes: it is located between the Post-Office and Badin Hall. The. Sculpture Studio, the result of another generous contribution by the O'Shaughnessys of $75,000, is.adjacent to the Liberal" and Fine Arts Building. The Sculpture Studio was built for the special use of the internationally renowned sculptor. Professor Ivan Mestrovic. \VNDU-TV is located immediately north of the Naxf^- Drill, Hall. In the near future ground will be broken for another refectory and two residence halls.

The Congregation of Holy Cross Fathei-s arc making ever)' effort to accommodate all the students on campus: thus fulfilling one of the essential objectivesof the Univei-sity. One misses the atmosphere so essential to Notre Dame life, if not a member of the campus student body.

The additions to the Univereity plans are directed towards one goal, to accommodate comfortably the undergraduates and graduate students in residence and class room, to give the student the most ad­ vanced facilities for a thorough education both materially and spiritually. The tirelessness of the members of the Congregation of Holy Cross to achieve these objectives is always a source of amazement to the Alumni.

The Alumni Board met the week-end of the Notre Dame-Indiana game. It discussed many prob­ lems that concern all alumni.

The Board attended the President's luncheon, the dedication of the television station WNDU-TV, and the conclave, at which meeting the University conferred the degree of Doctor of Science on General David Samoff. The general's speech of acceptance \vas impressive. My inference was that the most im­ portant impact that could be made upon the world at this time is Sound Morality. A veiy appropriate subject in an appropriate atmosphere, because nowhere has that subject been so intensely treated as at our Alma Mater.

The Alumni Board brings to your attention constantly two essential and related subjects. Prestige and Public Relations. Each helps to solve many of the problems of financial support and enrollment for the University. They are the unlimited challenge to Alumni. It is the Alumni Board's earnest prayer that the individual alumnus nourishes theni constantly t'''" we may enhance our Association's standing; thus assisting Notre Dame's every objectivel Sincerely,

LEO D. O'DONNELL, M.D., President.
