NEWS FROM THE MANAGING EDITOR

Now that I am a senior and am preparing to say good-bye to Notre Dame, the thought o~ changing the stadium makes me think seriously , about whether the decision is a wise or necessary one. Who's Who: What are the advantages of expansion? Twenty thousand more Irish NO • fans will have the opportunity to see a Notre Dame game live. More money from ticket sales will be raised. What happens if we don't expand? Nothing changes. What happens in either case? The stadium will still sell out. Tickets A closer look at Notre Dame's favorite almost-alumnus, George Wendt will be still scapled for too much money. Some fans who want to see a game will still not be able to get in. Tailgaters will still rage. Irish spirit and enthusiasm will still dominate. Other questions raised: Can Notre Dame's campus or the city of South Bend handle an extra 20,000 people milling around?
