All students had identifica tion pictures taken as a part of the registra tion program. New students—some 1,300—registered on Monday, Sept. 12, and then devoted much of Tuesday and Wednesday to tests given under the direction of Edward R. Quinn, '28, head of the Guidance and Testing De partment. Six tests were given: for scholastic aptitude, for achievement in English, social science, natural science and mathematics, and for religious placement. Results of these tests will later be made known individually to the students who took them and the same results are available for the study of faculty members concerned with them. In the De partment of Religion the students are "sectioned" according to results of the re ligious placement test, which is, it is im portant to note, the work of Rev. William F. Cunningham, C.S.C., director of the fac ulty, and long a nationally-recognized expert in educational matters. In the same battery of tests a year ago, the incoming Notre Dame students achieved a ranking 14 points above the national aver age for the same tests in many colleges.

The Notre Dame president told the stu dents that "you have come to Notre Dame for a definite purpose." He said: "you have come to Notre Dame to develop your mind, in a christian environment, to learn to read and think and to communicate with the great minds of the past and present, as they express themselves in theology and philoso phy, in mathematics and the physical and social sciences, in literature and history."

On June 23 we had another meeting of the club in San Francisco. There was a large turnout and it proved to be a wry successful evening. Honored guests included PAT 0*DEA, former coach at Notre Dame in 1900-01; JIM WASSON, '13, and PAUL SMITHERS, '15.
Pat O'Dea was particularly entertaining as be mocfcstly told of the early da>-s of football when the kicking pla>-ed such an important role. In his own inimitable style he told how he nonchalantly stepped back and drop-kicked the ball, or as he said, "pasted it through the uprights" some 57 yards auay. Or another time, on an attempted run when he was rushed by the opponents, he again nonchalantly "pasted it through the uprights," this time only some 50 yards away.
Jim Wasson and Paul Smithers, both early track stars for the University, told of their experiences and what enjoyment they received while at Notre Dame. It was Jim Wasson's son who took the en closed photographs.
SLIP KfADIGAN ser\-ed as master of ceremonies and did an excellent job. The arrangements for the meeting were \-ery ably handled by BILL DALY, our vice-president; PAUL GUSHING: DICK FUTTE; and KEENE FITZPATRICK.
