e Alumnus Four New Buildings To Meet Old Needs

Four of the long-range needs of the University will be filled this year by reason of gifts to the University announced this month by Rev. John J. Cavanaugh, C.S.C., president. Father Cavanaugh announced that benefac­ Liberal and Fine Arts Building tions from Mr. I. A. O'Shaughnessy, president of Globe Oil and Refining Co., and from Mr. Ernest M. Morris, '06, board chairman of Associates In­ vestment Co., will make possible the construction of a Liberal and Fine Arts building, and the Notre Dame Inn. The Liberal and Fine Arts Building will cost $1,500,000, the Morris Inn approximately $1,000,000, equipped. With the gift (announced in the March-April ALUMNUS) from Mrs. Sally Fisher of $750,000 for a new residence hall and the $500,000 pledged by the successful conclu­ sion of the Greater Notre Dame Campaign in South Bend, Mishawaka, and other cities, the new Science Building is now assured. Father Cavanaugh, in revealing Mr. O'Shaugh­ nessy as the donor of the Liberal and Fine Arts building, said: "Notre Dame is deeply grateful for the verj' generous gift of Mr. O'Shaughnessy, who has do­ nated so unselfishly of his time and effort on be­ half of this University as a distinguished member of its associate board of lay trustees. Notre Dame Inn "Mr. O'Shaughnessy's gift will enable Notre Dame to broaden greatly the scope of the training of students in the College of Arts and Letters. This college has been the cornerstone of the University's educational system in its 108-year history." In acknowledging Mr. Morris' gift of the No­ tre Dame Inn, Father Cavanaugh said: "The Morris Inn, which our beloved trustee and alumnus, E. M.

Notre Dame's prestige is finnly based on the ''training of the whole man" and not just on foot­ ball. Dean Lawrence Baldinger of the College of Science told his audience at the Harrisburg Club's observance of Universal Notre Dame Night, ''I'm trying, in all my talks and contacts," the dean said, "to emphasize the basic work in educa­ tion of the University and to give due credit to the teachers and instructors whose day-by-day rou­ tine builds the prestige of the school by trainins the soul and mind of its students." Noting some football facts from the pamphlet "Facts and Figures about Notre Dame" (which was quoted in tlie Harrisburg press). Dean Bai- dingcr added: "So many people Iiave the impression that the University's 5000 students are just out there throw­ ing footballs around. Football is a show window, you miglit say. Department stores have shotv win­ dows—but those show windows do not represent all that store has to offer. It's the same with No- Ire Dame's football show window."

The University's Concert Band appeared Easter Stmday night in Steriing, 111., under the sponsor­ ship of the Rock River Valley Club. The concert, a benefit for the club's scholarship ftmd, was the first in the band's spring tour. An excerpt from the concert program provides a fetching historical note oa Notre Dame bands: "According to Rev. Arthur Hope in his book Notre Dame 100 Yean," the program notes, "about the turn of the century the band was to give a concert from barges floating on St. Mary's Laic at Notre Dame, with the audience seated on the slop­ ing bank. All went well until the last member of the band stepped aboard the barge, which sank. No band members were lost, but there is still a set of musical instruments at the bottom of the lake." It is believed that no such accident marred the band's performance in Sterling. Saginaw Valley John N.

CONCERNING MARY ANN, by Leo R. Ward, C.S.C; Ave Maria Press, 261 pp. Less than a year ago. Herder Book Co. in St. Louis brought out Blueprint for a Catholic University by Father Leo R. Ward. In May, 1950, the Ave Maria Press at Notre Dame is publishing a new book by the same prolific and versatile author. The new book. Concerning Mary Ann, is the story of a wonderful Irish Iowa woman who only three or four times in her life of 90 years has been out of Iowa, and not often altogether has she been out of her parish.
