GILBERT'S 813-817 S. Michigan St. SOUTH BEND. DID. ^^^^^^^^^^Nl^^^^^/^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ LETTERS EVERY NIGHT IS NOTRE DAME NIGHT

Dear Sir: of In "Letters" of the SCHOLASTIC (April 18), Mr. Jim Cunningham attacked, in the order named: "Rugged individualist Edwards," Tribunism, free enterprise, capitalism, greed, Chicago and its busi­ CLEMENTS GRILL nessmen, and the "Root fiasco," along with minor, side-attacks at Joe Ball, ten- 514 East LaSalle cent candy bars, etc. I would like to take issue with many STEAKS —CHOPS (and agree with some) of Mr. Cunning­ ham's statements. My first argument is somewhat emo­ Spaghefti Dinner wifft meof sosice •.. 65c tional and it is that I, a native Chica- goan, resent the terms "filthy" and "rot­ ten" being applied to my home-city. It is granted that Chicago's central sec­ tion has much room for material im­ provement, but it would seem to be in THE HAND OF A doubt that "Chicago's suffering millions . . . rot in their substandard homes."

But can this Douglas style-leader. ' have bearing on our question? My second argument is with regard to the five points set forth as the '"MA­ JOR" changes that had to be made in "Good Old Americanism" (free enter­ prise) before we were able to fight World War II: 1 an:l 3). "War plants had to be built by the government." "Unlimited amounts of U. S. cash had to be doled out to industry. All expansion was government financed." The industrial might of Amer­ ica was not geared for war in 1940. No one expected that it should be. A man­ ufacturer of medium tanks would have been on relief from 1920-1940. And the enormity of the industrial war was be­ yond the scope of any peacetime indus­ try. Yet, private industry expanded to its utmost, although, I admit, mostly on government funds. The last point will be covered under statement four. 2). "Housing had to be constructed by the government." What housing? I presume that, by this is meant the con­ struction of Ai-my camps and bases. Housing of other types was not con­ structed during the war by either free enterprise or the government; and this is no fault of either. Statement two seems to be irrelevant. 5). "Rationing was necessary." This is malicious persecution!

The only drawback the ai-tists had ta overcome was the hall itself. The mas­ sive, wooden structure absorbed much of the music, thus tending to destroy the brilliant contrasts of the orchestrations. However, those who were fortunate enough to have seats near the front got the full effect of Mr. Haymes' and his 80-piece orchestra's mastery. Mr. Kullman has had a brilliant career since he left Yale and pre-medicine for a life of concerts and opera. Besides holding his place among the Metropoli­ tan's soloists, he has made countless ap­ pearances on the air and recently fin­ ished a principal role in the new motion picture "The Song of Scheherezade." Two operatic arias, "The Dream from 'Manon'" and "O Paradiso!" from, "I'Africana," made up a major part of his program. After the resounding ova­ tion which greeted these works, Mr. Kullman chose as an encore "La Donna Mobile," from "La Traviata," by Verdi.

Record 128 Players Enter Golf Tourney A record field of 128 golfers teed off this week to begin play in the first annual Vet's Club Golf Tourney. First round play was to be completed by today and second round matches should be com­ pleted by Tuesday. The Championship flight is composed of 32 players with medal qualifying scores better than 84. First round losers in this flight w^ill be seeded into flight No. 1. Medalist of the Championship flight was Joe Flood who carded 74. There are also 6 other flights of 16 play­ ers with scores running from 84 to 129. Since the tourney is match play, an inconsistent player may win enough holes to cop his match.

From Charlie Callahan's office comes a release stating that Notre Dame will play host to the first Central Collegiate Conference Tennis Championships since 1930 on May 29, 30, and 31. The an­ nouncement was made jointly by Ath­ letic Director Frank Leahy and Tennis Coach Walter Langford. This year's Central Collegiate Con­ ference tennis tourney, the third in his­ tory, should provide tennis fans in this area with a look at some of the best young net stars in the midwest. Among the schools which are likely to partici­ pate in the tournament are: Michigan State, Western Michigan, Marquette, Bradley, North Central, Northern Illi­ nois State Teachers, DePauw, Cincin­ nati, Wayne, Detroit, Lawrence, and No­ tre Dame. Trophies will be awarded to the win­ ning team, to the Avinner and runner-up in singles competition, and to the win­ ners and runners-up in doubles play. Notre Dame has been established as an early favorite to cop some of the titles. The Irish have swept through their first five matches of the year in impressive style, hardly being pressed by any of their opponents thus far. Coach Langford will be in charge of all ar­ rangements and Frank C. Householder, net tutor at Western Michigan College, will serve as referee of the tournament. When asked how his team looked this year. Coach Langford floored us with his Seersucker optimism. "Looks like we'll have an un­ defeated season. We've got a good team." And he meant it! No towel, no nothing! He's got some good men on this year's Sport Coats squad with Jim and Gerald Evert, Bill Tiilly, Dick Hartman, Charlie Samson, EdCaparo, Jim Griffin, Phil Lyons, Bob You'll like these seersucker Sports Coats David, and Joe Brown.

HOG AN IN ITALY By FRANK EEENAN Undoubtedly the most memorable of Hogan's innumerable experiences while in Europe took place in Eome, where he spent the Christmas season. Three days before Christmas over 250,000 people jammed St. Peter's Squai-e, in the midst of the wave of anti - clericalism then sweeping across Italy, and accorded the Supreme Pontiff a tremendous manifes­ tation of fealty and love. When the Holy Father appeared there arose one of the most deafening demonstrations of ap­ plause imaginable, Hogan I'ecalls.
