"Singing Bandleader" Has Meteoric, New Orchestra Fifteen years ago a well-to-do manu­ facturer in Jeannette, Pa., brought home a new trumpet for his son. The boy was pleased with the gift, to be sure, but he had a peculiar formation of teeth that made it impossible for him to play the instrument properly, so he gave it to his friend do^vn the block — a boy named Vaughn Wilton Monroe. The boy with the horn grew up and, during this past year, has been acclaimed as one of America's favorite bandleaders. The popularity polls give him first rank among the newcomers.

.%^ •*^^'X. %^ Angelo is Still Accurate The array of football talent you gaze on Avill probably surprise and please you. For never before have the fond eyes of Notre Dame looked on such a parade of gridiron tonnage. You'll see darting backs slash the turf as they slither through a sturdy forward wall. You'll hear the resounding thud of sweaty pads as Ed Krause and Joe McArdle push the guards and tackles through strained blocking periods. For here on Cartier Field during the next few weeks you'll see the birth of an Irish, squad that shows promise of grooving into a great grid power. Here you will see Angelo Bertelli, Mr. Precision himself, flinging his ever-accurate passes from his new quarterback post. Here you will view Harry Wright and Bob Dove in un­ familiar guard positions, improving rap­ idly as the days march by. A maze of new plays and practical improvements on the old Eockne System will thrill those who watch and send anticipiating shivers ' of hope through football loving Notre Damers^,. ' , Coach Leahy, the master strategist who shifted Bemie Crixnmins from fuU- . back to guard last year and watched him charge his way into All-American recognition, is well pleased with the rap­ id improvement of his current converts. "We are very pleased with Dove and Wright," he happily asserts, "they show 13 signs of progress daily and we feel they will measure up to all expectations."

Coach Leahy will imbed this m the mind of every one of his pupils again this year.

When he was sent to Notre Dame last September he was commis­ sioned a captain and took charge of the University's E.O.T.C. training. In addition to commanding a destroyer, Capt. Burnett has been commander of a submarine. From 1927 to 1930 he held a commission in the Peruvian navy as a member of the U. S. navy mission there. During his 32-year career, Capt. Bur­ nett has been decorated with the Victory medal of the first world Avar; the second Nicauraguan Campaign medal, and ex­ pert rifleman's badge. In addition, his submarine insignia is the equivalent in the navy to an aviator's "wings."

Serves in Far East Lieut. Conmiander Shaw's naval ca­ reer which began with his graduation from the academy in 1923, contains a bit more color for present war followers because of his active duty in China and the Philippines until Feb. 3, 1940, when he was stationed at Northwestern uni­ versity, Evanston, 111., for the "purpose of preparing the Abbott hall training station there. For two years after his graduation Commander Shaw was aboard the U.S.S. Maryland, then one of the most powerful units in the fleet. From 1925 until 1937 he was assigned to destroyers. In 1937 he" was sent to China, his_ arrival there being timed with outbreak of the war bet tsveen China and Japan. During the heavy bombings of Canton, before its occupation by the Japs, Com­ mander Shaw served on a river gunboat, holding that assignment for 14 months. His gunboat Avas the Mindanao, which was lost only ~ recently in Philippine waters. When he was shifted to shore duty Commander Shaw was skipper of the de­ stroyer John D. Ford, the lone survivor of its destroyer division of four ships which is still afloat and fighting some­ where in the Pacific theater. Much of Conmiander Shaw's time, as well as much of Capt, Burnett's time has been spent in the Philippines. Command­ er Shaw said he had often been on and around Bataan peninsula and describes that area, as well as most other Philip­ pine territory aside from its immediate coastline, as being extremely wild. Much of the land, he said, has never been ex­ plored by a white man. 31 Wranglers Hold Mid-west Catholic Speech Contest Slie*s a good Charles J.
