Dear Editor: . . . was surely surprised to find out this year that the Prefect of Eeligion's department had forgotten about the boys offcampus Avhen it came to plan­ ning the annual fall mission. I know a lot of fellows that liked to take this time out before the start of the school year and get squared away with God. I see by the Scholastic that some of the freshman halls had retreats within the halls, and Dillon Hall had one for the upperclassmen in that hall. It used to be that the campus was divided in two with half the students going the first week of school and the other the next week. What happened to that idea? Maybe it would be best to have a retreat for each hall, but who wonders about the poor offcampus student? Will Frankman Off-Campus.

He added that one of the greatest contributions American law schools can make to a peaceful and better world is "the projection of our law in its true God-related perspective."

Begun as a special project by Father Howard Kenna, C.S.C, Director of Studies, the department has grown until it is almost ready to start its function of supplying university classes with the very latest educational recordings and pictures. As stated by Mr. Orville Fos ter, head of the new department, "It is the hope of the Audio-Visual department eventually to supply educational films and recordings for every subject in the University. Audio-Visual education is a dynamic educating medium that has too long been neglected by Catholic schools and universities in America. The administration of the University of Notre Dame, and pai-ticularly Father Kenna, should be highly commended for having fostered such a vital, forward looking, educational project."

Located in beautifully redecorated i rooms on the second floor of the Main) Building, the Audio-Visual center is-the j new showplace of the campus. Deep reds and soft grays complement each other in the room's new color scheme. Acoustically engineered throughout, the main classroom is designed and equipped for making high-quality tape, wire, and disc recordings. As explained by Mr. Foster, "Wi*h this high-fidelity sound equipment, the Audio-Visual center's sound-motion-picture projectors, film- strips, slides, and complete set-up for the revolutionary new opaque production combine to make the new Notre Dame Department one of the best equipped in the country.

^ Pitt Hopes For Win After 11-Year Famine

By PETE BROWN

In 1937 Pittsburgh's dream backfield of Goldberg, Chickerino, Stebbins and Cassiano put on a whirlwind exhibition of scoring in the last five minutes of their game with Notre Dame to down the Irish .21-6. Tomorrow in Pittsburgh the Panthers will be working for their first win over a Notre Dame team since that day 11 years ago. Faithful followers of Pittsburgh de­ manded last season that either the Panther schedule be eased or the Uni­ versity should seek good ball players. Before the Southern Methodist game they were betting that their heroes would win one of their first two games. They lost to S.M.U., 33-14. A prime reason behind the upsurge of win feeling in Pittsburgh is the fact that the Panthers are fielding virtually the same team they have had for four sea­ PURDUE TRAPS SITKO (14); HART (82) GETS HECK (74) sons.

32 The Scholastic Faculty Sociologists Have Leading Articles /fs Adlers Members of the university sociology for faculty have the leading articles in two of the current sociological journals. "The Russian Mennonites: From Reli­ gious to Ethnic Group" by Dr. E. K. Fan Heusen Francis is the leading ai*ticle in the September issue of the American Jour­ nal of Sociology. It shows how so-called ethnic groups may grow out of a segre­ gated religious community. Dr. Francis & is preparing a book on the history of OM the Mennonites in Manitoba for publica­ tion in the near future. -rn^ The other article, by Mr. John J. ON THE CORNER—MICHIGAN & WASHINGTON Kane, appears in the current issue of the American Catholic Sociological Re­ view. It is a study of Negro gangs in Philadelphia, based upon evidence which he discovered while serving as a mem­ ber of the Philadelphia Crime Commis­ sion. Mr. Kane, a new member of the Department of Sociology here, has a master's degree from Temple University and has been studying at the University of Pennsylvania for the past two years. He is preparing to submit his doctoral thesis on religious prejudice to the U. of Penn. later this year.

ATTENTION CLUB PRESIDENTS Student Council this week re­ quested that all geographical club presidents submit their names and campus addresses to the Council of­ fice in room 122 of the Main Build­ ing. These names and addresses will be urgently needed when the Council begins to contact campus clubs to formulate operating policies for the year.

It has worked in the case of the campus bowling league where all the clubs, under the direction of Ernie Huff­ Browser's man, put on a great show.
