The act of con­ sciousness of self is the same act as consciousness of another. Baldwin is one of these writers. This is what makes his social criticism so accept­ able. He is a real human being and, not only has he not excepted himself from this criticism but placed himself in the proper spot in the world. It is because of this that Baldwin's truth and honesty strike so clear and round a tone. It is because of this that Baldwin demands experience of his readers. He demands, in order to understand him, in order to be one of his "other people," that you have been hungry. He doesn't consider you unless you have been hated; unless you're capable of love. Actually he demands more. It is not enough to "understand what it must be like to be a Negro." It is not enough to want a soul. He hates virgins who wish a relatively simple basis.

24 The Scholastic ily. The backfield of Budka, Bill Wol- ski, Joe Kantor, and Jack Snow seemed to give Notre Dame its most potent attack. As Budka says, "I could call on Kantor or Wolski any time, and know they'd rip off a five- or ten-yard gain. That makes it easy for a quarterback." Notre Dame's passing attack is as yet unproven, however. Budka passed so seldom that little can be said about his success or lack of it: he com­ pleted two of five passes, one a clutch 14-yarder to Jim Kelly. As a group, Notre Dame's quarterbacks are still just under 45% in completions, but must improve if the Irish are to beat such opponents as Pittsburgh and Syracuse, whose forte is a gargantuan defensive line. Against UCLA tomorrow, Notre Dame will play the second of three successive games against California teams. The Bruins, who have scrambled to a 1-3 record, will show the Irish a wide-open, razzle-dazzle offense. In end Mel Profit and halfback Mike Haffner, the Uclan's have two candi­ dates for Ail-American honors. Profit is a 6-5 defensive specialist who spells trouble for enemy quarterbacks. He gained Lineman of the Week laurels for his tackling in an earlier game against Penn State. At left halfback, Haffner is labeled "another Jon Arnett." Although he sat out last season, the Bruin runner rushed for 703 yards and a 6.3 aver­ age as a sophomore. A triple threat, he completed 15 passes in 1961 and punted for a 35-yard average. Letter- man John White and sophomore Bob Richardson will also see heavy duty. Coach Bill Barnes of the Bruins has had trouble finding an adequate quarterback since he changed the of­ fense from a single wing to the T- formation a year ago. He believes, however, his problem may be solved by juniors Steve Sindell and Larry Zeno. A junior college transfer, Sindell set national JC records in three pass­ ing departments. He set marks in at­ tempted passes (268), number of completions (152), and total passing yardage (2,051). Zeno played 118 minutes as a sophomore. To stop the UCLA attack, the Irish must again put up an adequate air defense. In analyzing the rest of the sea­ son, Frank Budka is very optimistic. "I think we're capable of going 8-2, because Southern Cal was undoubt­ edly our toughest opponent. If we keep on playing as a team, I'm sure we can win the next seven games."
