With the Navy Department's announcement that Notre Dame has been named ofEcially as a V-1 center, Notre Dame now offers undergraduates several attractive opportunities to pursue their education and at the same time to prepare themselves and their talents for the service of the government. The Navy Department, through Secretary Knox, Admiral Jacobs, Admiral Downes, Admiral Nimitz, and many other spokesmen, has expressed its appreciation of the cooperation of the University.
