• • griping WHAT is the value of criticism, or as described in the
colloquial "griping"? It is supposed that every action must have a definite purpose — at least today — or what good does society derive from it? Griping which is a lower form of criticism does really have some value, for it is the first sign of disgust or insecurity which eventually, under careful guidance, reaches the "holy" state of criticism. It is true that griping may be caused by a rather uncomfortable emotional disturbance brought about by such things as classes, girls, and weather. But, it seems, that it arrives rather because of a basic disgust with prevalent and all-too-ordinary conditions.
Since criticism's ultimate aim is perfection, the action becomes justified, and the primary state of griping can be allowed to exist because it may evolve into the healthy state of criticism. This latter level cannot be ^aken by a high grade, pleasant dates, or a sutmy day — it remains in spite of exterior conditions to expose the foolishness and insipidness of human beings, their institutions, and environment.
One who b truly disturbed with the mediocrity and stupidity that rules the present age will never, or are diey able, to relinquish their ri^t of criticism. Nothing will satisfy them but the perfection of society — this is why most saints ^t. dissatisfied with the world — of course, we agree, that everyone who criticizes is not a saint.
It is a very good sign that there are students on this campus who care enough about Notre Dame to advance intelli^nt critiques of our situation. For the most part, we feel, that this is done with sincere intentions and an objective attitude. Therefore, we encourage this inaction of the essentials of our society, and sincerely h ( ^ that it never ceases — even after graduation.

EASTER VACATION is with US once more and with it comes an <^^rtuni^ to demonstrate a true Notre Dame
spirit. What b Notre Dame ^irit? First of all because it is ^irit, it is s(xnething whidi is essentially mysterious. Webster's defines it as "the breath of life" and this probaUy comes as close as possible to the nature of spirit. Spirit then is the life of Notre E)ame. It is that princ^k «4udi makes the University live and ^ w .
But like all principles of life, ^irit is perhaps best known in its manifestations. What then are the vaiapottaaA manifestations of a Notre I>ame spirit? Smce spirit is tied up with the life of the University, it first should be concerned with the ^owth and improvement of the scfaoc^ This does not mean mere physical growth but refers to an overall ^iritual and intellectual growdi. SecmxUy, st^nX. must be concerned with preventing or avoiding any destruction of the existing life of the University. These are the basic manifestations of a real Notre Dame ^nrit.
How does this apply to Easter vacation? Veiy easily. Within a few days most of us will be heading home tx to scnne vacation spot such as Florida. We will be oa di^Iay in either case before many people who XotAi at us as exan^les of Notre Dame men and therefore as embodying the spirit of Notre Dame. If we manifest our "^irit " by creating a disturbance on the train ot in soane Florida bistre^ we are not manifesting a true Notre Dame q»rit. We have neglected the very things whidi should be most in xMrtant to a teal Notre Dame ^irit. But make no mistake about it. N o one is perfect and this goes without saying. More cSxen then not the fellow who has ''one too many" oc who openty "^:^)es" about the University before other peof^ is not maliciously intending to destroy or even haim die spirit <^ Notre Dame. He does so only because of his human weakness. But one has to be quite dubious about s«ne Notre Dame students who are constandy acting as a destnictiw force to the University. They singly can not have die Univetaty's best interests at heart. They are thmkii^ onty of themselves, and, indeed, not very well of dieniselves> Whidi class do you fall into? If you belong, as most of-us do, to the first class dien be ectra careful of your conduct: over Easter. If you belong to die second class nothii^ mudit. anybody could say would have any meaning.

CO-CAPTAINS JOHN McCARTHY AND BOB DEVINE
THE 1957-58 F;
I BASKETBALL
SEASON
March 28, 1958
-J.WL.,:^t;,L,ii>.Js!«.
John Jordan Coach Johnny Jordan led his Notre Dame team to 24 vic
tories this past season and has now accumulated 124 wins in his seven years a t Notre Dame. His teams have dropped but 56 games over this same seven-year stretch, five of the losses coming this year. This year's team finished seventh in the final Associated Press poll and eighth in the final United Press tabulation.
This 1957-58 season just completed marks the third time in the jas t five years that Jordan's teams have won over 20 games, and this year's victory total of 24 is the highest in the history of the school.
Jordan's two Mrins in the three NCAA encounters two weeks ago brings his total in NCAA play to eight wins and four losses. This marks the third time in four tries that a Jordan-coached Notre Dame team has gone to the finals in NCAA competition.
Although the bonus shot after a successful free tiirow attempt was eliminated following the first six fouls in each half this year, Jordan's team became the highest scoring team in Notre Dame basketball history. This year's team scored 2374 points for an average of close to 82 points per game. Last year's team scored ten less points in one less game with the benefit of the bonus free throw rule.
Jordan enrolled at Notre Dame in 1931 and became active in both football and basketball during his freshman year. The next three years he concentrated entirely on basketball and captained the 1934-35 Notre Dame team. During his three years of varsity play, Notre Dame compiled a 49-19 record.
Shortly after his graduation, he accepted the head coaching job a t Mount Carmel High School in Chicago, 111., and he remained there through the 1949 season except for his three-year term as a Navy lieutenant during World War II. Three times he directed his Mount Carmel teams to the Catholic League Championship and won the City Championship twice. During his stay a t Mount Caimel, he attracted attention as one of the nation's top prep coaches.
Duiing the 1950-51 season he directed Loyola of Chicago's basketball forces to a 15-14 record and returned to Notre Dame to take up the head coaching job at the beginning of the 1951-52 season. His first team won 16 of 26 ball games, and with many of the players from his first team he led Notre Dame to the quarterfinals of the NCAA championship the next two years.
In 1952-53, under Jordan's most capable leadership, Notre Dame won 19 of 24 encounters before losing a close contest to Indiana, the eventual tourney champion, in the quarterfinal round. The next year, the Irish, sporting a 21-2 record going into the quailerfinals a t Iowa City, clipped the defending champion Hoosiers by one point in the Friday night game but were then upset by a hot-shooting Penn State quintet in the final game of the regionals the next night. For Jordan's and his team's outstanding performance during the 1953-54 season, the Metropolitan Sports Writers named him the "College Basketball Coach of the Year."
Jordan's team slipped a little bit the next year to a still very creditable 14-10 record and fell to a 9-15 mark during the 1955-56 campaign. But he led Notre Dame back into national prominence last year as the Irish ran up 20 wins against only eight defeats and finished 16th in the final Associated Press Poll.
Jim Gibbons Jim Gibbons, in his second year as assistant basketball coach, has served
as the chief aid to Johnny Jordan and has also handled the freshmen basketball players during the past two seasons.
Gibbons, a guard on the Noti-e Dame basketball teams from 1950-53, returned to Notre Dame from Mount Carmel High School in Chicago where he coached both baseball and basketball.
During his playing days for the Irish, Gibbons was known for his defensive ability and his adeptness a t dribbling. Throughout his three years of varsity c<Hnpetition, the Chics^oan scored 210 points and was one of the team's most consistent foul shooters.
Upon graduation from the Goll^re of Liberal Arts in 1953, Gibbons served a two-year hitch in the Army prior to taking up his coaching career a t Mount CaimeL Gibbons, who also was a pitcher-outfielder for the Irish baseball team, serves as assistant coach to baseball coach Jake SJine during, the spring months. — : '

'Ex Carde'
by Go-Captains Bob Devine and John McCarthy
"When your ability is the same as the other team's and all other things are equal there is one thing that decides the winner, that is, *ex carde,' from the heart."
Any player who has ever played under Coach'Jordan will recognize these words. After plajdng three years for him a player probably hears the expression over a hundred times. When you first look at this Latin phrase, 'ex carde,' it doesn't mean much, but it has a deep meaning for all of us who play for him.
It connotes a whole philosophy of sport; more than that a whole philosophy of life, not only to the heart of each individual, but it signifies the heart of a team. Each works not to see his own name in the headlines but to see the name of the team and of Notre Dame pushed forward.
To any of Coach Jordan's teams here at Notre Dame, there is one main objective, to further the glory of the Lady on the Dome. He wants his team to win every game but if it came down to bringing disgrace on Notre Dame to win a game, he would rather lose.
Coach Jordan is not a great teacher of individual basketball skills. He admits that he cannot teach a boy to shoot, or dribble or pass. But he is probably
the finest coach in the country when it comes to teaching team play. He works not to build All-Americans but to build All-America teams. He believes that a basketball game is won by five men
- working together, not by five individual performances. Yet we can't avoid the fact that in some years he has produced some great All-Americans, such as Dick Rosenthal, Jack Stephens, and his greatest, Tom Hawkins. But as he would say, "Five men win a game, not one."
I t is difficult to say how one feels toward a man who has been so close to us for four years. We could say that he is a great coach, but this is said of many winning coaches. Before all else^ we would call him our friend.
A former player of Coach Jordan, Johnny Dee, now coach of the Chicago-Denver Truckers and formerly coach of Alabama, expressed his opinion of Johnny Jordan after Notre Dame defeated Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. He said, "I hope you go on to win the championship because you are playing for a gentleman." '
I t was a well deserved compUment coming from a man whose team he had just beaten. But in our opinion one phrase will best express our feeling toward Coach Jordan. He is above all a Catholic gentlonan.

THE SEASON IN
REVIEW by Ed Rohrbach
MCCARTHY LOOKS FOR BALL AGAINST BRADLEY
The Scholastic
Duffy drives against N Y U
Notre Dame's basketball team stylishly swept its way through a 26-game reg-
I ular season schedule against the country's finest teams, then bounced Tennessee Tech and Indiana from the NCAA
i before bowing to national champion Kentucky in the Midwest regionals of the tournament. In all, the Irish won the most victories in Notre Dame's basketball history as they compiled a superlative 24-5 season's record. After a loss to Bradley on Feb. 1, the Jordan-men tallied twelve consecutive victories before their sound defeat by Kentucky.
^ The Irish opened the 1957-58 season against St. Ambrose on Dec. 3 in the Fieldhouse. In this contest, Notre Dame led all the way, though St. Ambrose closed Avithin three points of the Irish midway in the first half. At this point a field goal by Tom Reinhai-t and a jump
. shot by Tom Hawkins pulled ND into a more comfoi-table margin and from there they went on their way to an easy 82-63 victory.
Four days later the Jordanmen journeyed to Madison, Wis., where they engaged Wisconsin's Badgers in their first road game of the year. The Irish jumped off to an early lead, then weathered a mild Wisconsin uprising in the second half to win handily, 75-53. Hawkins paced the Notre Dame scoring with 26 points while Co-Captain John McCarthy was close behind with 22.
Nebraska, which later turned into the giant-killers of the Big Eight Confer
ence, faced the Irish the next Saturday evening in the Fieldhouse. The rangy Cornhuskers gave the Jordanmen a tight battle for the first 15 minutes but withered under the scoring pressure of McCarthy and Reinhart, who hit 26 and 17 points, respectively, and went down to a 69-56 defeat,
Marquette, which seemed likely to carry on their football misfortunes into the basketball season before they met Notre Dame, trounced the Irish, 78-64 at Milwaukee for' ND's first loss of the campaign. The Warriors, outplayed the visitors in every department, especially in rebounding where they outjumped the Irish 55-37. Hawkins' offensive showing was Notre Dame's only bright spot as he poured in 31 points.
In their next encounter, McCarthy's 26 points, mainly on jump shots from outside the keyhole, gave Notre Dame a comeback victory over Loyola in the Fieldhouse. The Irish held a scant five point halftime advantage but began hitting in the second half to win in a breeze, 82-63. Co-Captain Bob Devine's 21 points and fine floor play was also a big factor in the victory.
Michigan State, defending Big Ten co-champion which eliminated the Irish in the NCAA play-oflFs the year before, overcame an ND 43-35 halftime lead to hand the Jordanmen their second loss of the season, 79-72. Fouls plagrued Notre Dame's starters in the waning moments of the game and, when Hawkins fouled
out, the Irish lost their scoring punch. In aU, both teams accumulated 37 foials, in the grueling contest.
After a brief holiday respite the Jordanmen traveled to IndianapoBs where they garnered their first champifni-ship in the Hoosier Classic. Purdue, which was later to make a strong bid for the Big Ten title, drew the Irish in the tournament's first game.. 12,900 fans jammed Butler Fieldhouse for the game which was nip and tuck until Devine boosted Notre Dame into the lead with a free throw with nine minutes remaining. The "iron-men" Irish, who used only six players, then turned on a strong offensive burst that left the Boilermakers in their wake, 61-48. Purdue was not all finished, however, as t h ^ doaed the gap rapidly before time ran out and gave Notre Dame a well-earned 68-fil triumph.
Indiana, which had been bombed hy Butler the evening before, faced the Irish the following night. Paced by star forward Hawkins, who scored 17 of Ids 28 points in a blazing second half, ND tumbled the Hoosiers 89-74 for their second successive victory. Hawkins led the way for the Jordanmen with his 28 points. Butler's loss to Purdue enabled the Irish to gain their first Classic title in five tries.
On New Year's Eve, Notre Dame went after its seventh win of the first semester against a strong contingent from Northwestern at McGaw Manorial HaD in Evanston. Though the Irish opened up a 19-point lead they coUapsed in the second half before they regained their bearings to subdue the scrappy Wildcats, 71-66. Northwestern culminated a second half rally with a 64-63 lead with four minutes left in the game. Reinhart then capitalized on two free throws to give ND a margin they never relinquished.
Tenacious Butler held Hawkins in check the following Monday . n i ^ t at. Notre Dame but Reinhart managed to pick up the lapse in the Irish offense by tallj^ng 25 points as the locals went on to their eighth win of the season, 83-72. The Irish were in charge most of the way against the Bulldogs but had to. overcome a late burst by the visitors to gain their eleventh straight victory <m the Fieldhouse floor.
The Irish didn't find Valparaiso too much trouble in their next game as thejr walloiied the Crusaders 94-69 at Fort Wayne. Gene Duffy, who usually leaves the scoring to his taller teammates, broke loose with 22 points for Notre Dame. Tom Hawkins, however, who threaded eleven field goals, led the ND' scoring with 24 points.
For the first time in the season, the' Irish found themselves trailing at the end of the first half, against DePani.
March 28, 1958 13
Way up there
The Demons were winning 37-36 when the halftime buzzer sounded in the Field-house but in the final 20 minutes of play it was a different story as Notre Dame strode past a DePaul team, that became riddled with fouls, for a 79-61 ti-iumph. Hawkins again was the Jordanmen's offensive gun as he tallied 26 points.
Noti-e Dame suffered its third defeat in 13 games against Louisville the next Saturday night as the Cardinals pasted a 94-83 road defeat on the Irish. Coach Johnny Jordan's team never quite re-covei-ed from a ten point spurt that sent the hosts ahead at the half, 46-37. The key to the Louisville win was superior rebounding, paced by 6-10 Jerry Du-pont's 22 recoveries. John McCarthy's 26 points led the scoring for both teams. Bob Devine was second for the Irish ivith 20 tallies.
The Ii-ish successfully launched their irst of three appeai-ances at the Chicago Stadium the following Saturday by jwamping a good Illinois quintet, 81-67. Pom Hawkins showed his hometown "oiks why he is the greatest scorer in 'iTotre Dame history by sinking 16 fielders and seven free thi-ows for 39 points, rhe Irish completely dominated play igainst the Illini, taking a 48-31 advantage at the half and maintaining it hroughout the second half. The tri-imph gave the Jordanmen an 11-3 sea-on's record.
A second half defensive show bottled p the Louisville attack four days later s the Iz'ish scored a revenge victory vev the Cardinals in the Fieldhouse, 3-53. ND trailed 34-30 at the half but jund the range thei-eafter to wi-ap up leir twelfth win of the campaign. The fotre Dame scoring was evenly bal-nced behind Hawkins who set the pace i th 25 points. The Notre Dame victoiy machine
chugged to a sudden, but not entirely unexpected stop, the next Saturday night in the Chicago Stadium, as Bradley's Braves humiliated the Irish 81-70 before a 14,000 gathering. For four minutes in the first half the ND marksmen were unable to find the hoop as they lost a slim lead and Bradley went on to take a 45-33 lead at the half. The basketballers could only, muster up a mild threat in the second half, closing the gap to six points, before the Braves took charge again. Hawkins was the star for the Jordanmen as he poured in 29 points.
In their next two games, the Irish maintained their winning streak on the Fieldhouse floor against visiting Canisius and the Air Force Academy. Against Canisius. ND expanded a slim four point halftime lead to a comfortable 71-59 victory. Despite faulty shooting from the free throw line, whei'e they missed 13 attempts, the Irish, the one-two scoring punch of Hawkins and McCarthy, were too much.
On Feb. 8, Tom Hawkins turned in the best pei-formance of his career at Notre Dame as the Irish humiliated an aggressive but small Air Force team, 98-70. The "Hawk" netted 19 field goals, a Notre Dame record, and five fi-ee throws for 43 points which tied the Fieldhouse mark set by Lloyd Aubrey in 1956. McCarthy also had a sizeable
hand in the rout by tallying 24 points. The elusive 100 point scoring mark,
which no Notice Dame basketball team had ever been able to achieve, became a reality the night of Feb. 10 in the Field-house as the Jordanmen vanquished Marquette, 106-74. The Irish were definitely revenge-minded.as they buried the hapless Warriors under a 62-35 halftime barrage and then, with reserves filling in for the varsity the last eight minutes, eclipsed the century mark with 2:21 remaining on Mike Ireland's lay-up. Scoring leaders for the Irish were McCarthy and Hawkins with 22, Devine with 18 and Mike Gi-aney who finished with 17 points.
Butler, which was apparently very anxious to avenge the loss they suffered to the Irish at South Bend, played the Jordanmen on a little better than even terms until midway in the second half when the Irish managed to knot the score a t 78-all. With Eddie Gleason's brilliant all-ai-ound play sparking the Irish, they finished very strong in the last two minutes to win, 90-81. Hawkins' 33 points made him high scoi-er in the game.
Defending NCAA champion North Carolina was the basketball team's next opponent. The talented Tarheels opposed the Irish on Feb. 15 at the Chicago Stadium in what was anticipated as the Jordanmen's hardest test of the season.

McCarthy scores against Indiana
The Irish snapped a 36-36 halftime tie with a spectacular surge at the beginning of the final half and never let up as they crushed North Carolina, 89-70. Tom Hawkins, though he was being double-teamed, put the biggest damper on the Tarheels' victory hopes by cashing in 33 points. The triumph set the Notre Dame record at 17-4 for the season.
After their stunning win over Noi-th Carolina, the basketballers trekked to the East where they engaged New York Univei'sity in Madison Square Garden on Feb. 20. Though the Ii-ish were solid favorites, the Violets took advantage of the Jordanmen's sluggish play in the first half to stay within striking distance until McCarthy hit a jump shot Avith four minutes left before the intex--mission. With this incentive, the Irish increased their advantage to 37-31 at halftime and easily outdistanced the hosts on their way to a decisive 93-77 win. Hawkins, with 25 points, and McCarthy who added 24, led the ND attack.
Against Navy the following Saturday night at Annapolis, the Irish again suffered through a lethargic first half but caught fire in the last 20 minutes to zoom to a 85-63 triumph. In the contest, Tom Hawkins netted 24 points to pass the single season's scoring record he set the season before. The junior fonvard's output against the Middies gave him 583 points with three regular season games to go. Bob Devine gave the 1957-58 team another record by starting in his 75th consecutive game, besides making 17 points for his team.
In their last home game of the season )efore a packed Fieldhouse throng, the rish stai-ting five played absolutely cintillating basketball to open up an ivei*whelming 46-23 halftime lead over loly Cross. Though coach Johnny Jor
dan sprinkled the Notre Dame quintet with reserves in the second half, ND maintained its comfortable margin over the Crusaders to win handily, 86-58.
Hawkins again was the top scorer with 24 points, slightly below his average of 25-plus per game. He was accorded a rousing and spontaneous cheer when he passed the 600-point mark in scoring. Senior Co-Captains John McCarthy and Bob Devine were duly saluted, too, by the roaring student body. McCarthy helped out w>th 17 points and Devine added ten for the Irish.
On the fiist of March the Irish went after their 21st triumph of the campaign against a rugged Detroit team at their home court. To beat the Titans, who lefused to submit to the NCAA-bound Jordanmen. Notre Dame had to soar over the 100-point mark for the second time of the season. Though fan-
Tech guard blocks lay-in
tastic shooting put the Irish ahead 56-46 at the half, Detroit came stoi-ming back in the second stanza to tie it up at 82-all with five minutes remaining. Hawkins hit a fielder at this point but the Irish weren't out of danger until a spurt with two minutes left gave Notre Dame a relatively comfoi-table eight point lead. Three members of each team were forced to leave the game via fouls and, in all, 51 fouls wei*e committed in the hard-fought contest. The final score read: Notre Dame 102, Detroit 96,
DePaul was the last obstacle on the Irish's 1957-58 schedule. The Demons, who are usually a powerhouse on their home court, capitalized on one of the Jordanmen's poorer showings of the year to stay close until three minutes before the final buzzer when the Irish gained a 70-64 lead. Notre Dame stalled out from thei-e until time i-an out to win, 75-71. Hawkins paced ND's offense with
22 points and McCaithy was close behind with 21.
Tennessee Tech, champions of the Ohio Valley Conference, were the Iiish's opponents in their first NCAA tournament game. The Golden Eagles put up a strong bid to the favored Irish until early in the second half when Notre Dame finally broke loose and left Tech under a 94-61 deluge. In the game at McGaw Memorial Hall at Evanston, 111., Hawkins paced the ND attack with 30 points.
With one NCAA victoiy under their belts, the Irish traveled to Lexington, Ky., where they faced Indiana's Big Ten champions in their first game. Though Notre Dame had whipped the Hoosiers earlier in the season, they were only slight favorites to do it again over the much improved downstaters. ND got oif to a slow start, trailing 12-6 in the early minutes, before their shooting picked up and they jumped into a commanding 48-37 halftime advantage. Hawkins took the scoring burden from McCarthy who had been cariying it in the first half a i d led the Irish on to a 94-87 victory. He was the leading scorer in the contest with 31 points while McCai-thy totaled 29.
Kentucky, the South East Conference champions, were Notre Dame's opponents the next evening before a capacity crowd in their home fieldhouse. I t was simply an off-night for the Jordanmen as they were out-played by the Wildcats in every department and went down to a 89-56 defeat.
While the Irish were futilely trying to shake-off the Wildcat's sticky defense, the Kentuckians found the Irish basket an easy mark, rolling to a 43-31 half-time lead and increasing it from there on. McCarthy was Notre Dame's top scorer, with 17 points.

TIME OUT The annual basketball testimonial banquet, which took place last Tuesday
night, was a thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable affair. The food was good and so were the speakers.
If you had to single out one predominate theme or idea which ran throughout the banquet, it would have to be the intense respect and friendship gained by Coach John Jordan with those who are associated with him.
Ai-t Morse, the promoter of college basketball in the Chicago Stadium, and assistant director of athletics at Loyola, explained it in part. He said that every basketball team looked pretty much alike. The thing which gave them real identity was their coach. And in some ways this is very time.
Coach Frank McGuire of North Carolina put it another way. "A lot of you people don't realize what a 24-5 season is in basketball today," he said. "There are no longer any have-nots in basketball for everyone has a good team nowadays. Coach Joi'dan and his team have beaten some of the best in the country, and if they played Kentucky seven times they would beat them in six. It is truly unfortunate that they lost on the night that they played them." This is a fine tribute to Jordan's coaching ability by the man whose team won the National Championship last season, and who was selected as basketball's Coach of the Year for that season.
But perhaps the greatest tribute of all was paid by Coach John Castel-lani, of Seattle, who was Jordan's assistant coach here for four years. "Jordan treated me like a father," he said. "When things were going rough, he helped me more than I can explain. Whatever success I have had, it was because of Jordan."
Though these are strong words, they express the feelings of all of us. Of course our contact with Jordan was limited by comparison, but we can sincerely say that he is one of the finest men that we have ever met.
He is never too busy to say hello or offer that word of encoui-agement
or help. Everyone is treated with the same friendliness, and this is some
times the test of a real man, to treat eveiyone, regardless of station, the
same.
Though the banquet was a happy affair, for some of us it was a little sad. I t marked the end of the Devine-McCarthy era of Notre Dame basketball. Both of these men have had fine careers. Both have scored over 1,000 points in their three seasons, and Devine holds the record for consecutive games stai-ted, 81.
The graduation of these two will leave a great void in the Pieldhouse but they are being replaced by two who fill it quite ably. Gene Duffy and Tom Hawkins have a big job to do next year, for being captains after Devine and McCarthy won't be easy. But they can do it, and maybe next year's banquet will honor Notre Dame's first NCAA basketball champions. We certainly hope so.—MJ".

Dees Unanimous Choice On All-Opponent Team
Archie Dees, Indiana's 6-8 Ail-American center was the only unanimous choice on the Notre Dame basketball's 1957-58 all-opponents team.
North Carolina's Pete Brennan and Michigan State's Johnny Green tied for second in the balloting among the Irish players with eleven votes each. Vem Hatton of Kentucky polled ten votes for the fourth position on the team and Mike Walsh, Detroit's guard, rounded out the squad by getting five votes.
Kentucky and Bradley tied in the selection of the best team faced by the Irish this year. The Wildcats, who eliminated Notre Dame from the NCAA by a whopping 89-56 count on their way to the national championship, and Bradley's Braves, who tumbled the Irish in the Chicago Stadium for their last loss in regular season play, each acquired five votes in the team's balloting. The Indiana Hoosiers, who were downed twice by the Jordanmen, once in the Hoosier Classic and later in the NCAA quarterfinals, were picked on one ballot as was Michigan State, winner over the Irish, 79-72, early in the season.
Dees, the Indiana senior who paced the Big Ten scoring statistics, got the nod from all twelve of the Irish basket-bailers to head the team. In his two games against ND, Dees netted 60 points to thoroughly convince them that he was one of the country's finest players.
Green is the only repeater from last year's all-opponent team. The junior center's rebounding ability and frequent tip-ins were a big factor in the Spartan's victory over the Irish in December. He tallied 19 points and gathered in most of the rebounds for the victors.
North Carolina's Brennan impressed the Jordanmen by his ruggedness under the boards and almost one-man scoring show against Notre Dame in the Chicago Stadium. The Tarheel center hit 28 points against the Irish and was especially deadly from the free throw line where he scored twelve times.
Kentucky's Hatton was the star of the game in the Wildcat's easy win over the Irish. While directing the Kentucky offense from his guard position, Hatton managed to also be the game's top scorer with 26 points. He later proved his value to the Wildcats by sinking a last-second jimip shot to give his team a victory over Temple in the NCAA semifinals.
Walsh, Detroit's 5-10 guard, hit 27 points against the Irish in their 102-96 triumph over the Titans. Before fonlinir out with a few minutes left in the game Walsh was keeping Detroit even with the Irish as he consistently connected on long set shots.

Nineteen Frosh Bosketbdiers Appeor As Solid Nucleus for Future Irish Squads
Nineteen boys played freshmen basketball this year under the direction of frosh coach Jim Gibbons.
Heading the group were John TuUy, Bill Crosby and Bill Noonan. TuUy, a graduate of Regis in New York City, comes from Palisades Park, N. J. He stands six-foot-seven and plays the center post for the Irish. Although he hadn't played the pivot too much before coming to Notre Dame, TuUy has developed a good hook shot with both hands.
Crosby, a six-foot-four guard, is a product of St. Benedict's Prep and comes from Linden, N. J. His best shots are a two-handed set and one-hand jump. Crosby is a fine rebounder, excellent on defense and has good split vision. His good basketball sense means he should play a lot for the Irish in the next three years.
Noonan too, is a guard, standing six-foot-one. He hails from Davenport, la., and attended the same prep school as varsity guard Gene Duffy—St. Ambrose Academy. A nice soft, one-handed jumper and good touch on his shots are his best qualities. Noonan has shown lots of improvement over the last part of the year. A good defensive man also, Noonan is a good prospect for our one-three-one style of offense.
The forward spots were held down by Jim Sullivan of Chicago and Denny Walljasper of Iowa City, la . Sullivan is a six-foot-five lefthander, and with his left-handed jump shot should be a strong
candidate for the right foi-ward position vacated by Irish Co-Captain John McCarthy. Sullivan is a product of St. Ignatius in Chicago.
Walljasper, an Iowa City St. Mary's graduate, was injured part of the season, thus hampering his playing time. He is a fair rebounder and might wor k well in Notre Dame's double pivot.
Filling in for Walljasper while he was injured and doing a capable job was Pat KeaiTiey. He played his high school ball at Loyola Academy in Chicago.
Helping out a t guard were Ramon Vales and Ronnie Zak. Vales comes from Rye, N. Y., and stands five-ten. He is a good floor man and shoots a two-handed set shot. Zak, the same size as Gene Duffy a t five-six, was coached by Tom McHugh, former Irish footballer. Zak comes from Toledo, Ohio.
Others on the squad included Dennie O'Shaugnessy, a six-foot-two forward from Fremont, O., and Jack Schroeder, a guard who drives well, from Garden City, N. Y. Three Cleveland, O.-area boys were also frosh players this past season. They were Jack Carey and Bob Kirstein from Lakewood and Tom En-right from Cleveland.
Dick Bendall, Schenectady, N. Y., Larry Erickson, Midland, Mich., Dan Hagan, Mexico, Mo., who also plays baseball. Bob Schmidt, Bakersfield, Cal., Paul Schmitz, Drexel Hill, Pa., and Mike White, Chicago, round out the squad. —Tom Bates.

Hawkins and Duffy Named Co-Captains
Tom Hawkins and Gene Duffy have been selected as co-captains of the 1958-59 Notre Dame basketball team. Hawkins, high-scoring foi-ward and Duffy, 5-7 playmaking guard, were voted the honor by their teammates after the final game of the season at Lexington.
Hawkins, chosen on several All-America teams this year, has been called "the greatest offensive basketball player in Notre Dame's history" by Coach Johnny Jordan. This season Hawkins led the team in scoring with 730 points, setting a new one-season Irish scoring record. The old record of 576 points was set by Hawkins himself last year as a sophomore. Thus far in his two seasons Hawkins has amassed a total of 1306 points, only eight short of Jack Stephens' four year career record of 1314 points. Hawkins also was the top rebounder on the club with 499.
Tremendous jumping ability and an uncanny shooting eye ai'e the factors most responsible for Hawkins' success. He is 6-5 and weighs 205 pounds. His spring has enabled him to out-rebound and out-jump taller opponents consistently; and his jump shot is virtually unstopable.
Hawkins came to Notre Dame from Parker High School in Chicago and is a sociology major in the Arts and Letters school.
Gene Duffy, the other co-captain-elect of the 1958-59 cagers, is from Davenport, Iowa. His high school record at St. Ambrose Academy is almost a legend. Winning 16 major letters in football, basketball,' baseball, and track, Duffy was an All-State performer in football and basketball and led the baseball team to the state championship as a sophomore.
Duffy, who is only 5-7, made the varsity team as a sophomore last year and played in 22 of the 28 games. This season he was a starting guard on the squad all season long and scored 190 points for an average of 6.6 points per game.
Because he is so small, Duffy does not show his value to the team in the scoring column. But his brilliant playmaking and skillful ball handling make him an invaluable asset on the court. His sharp, quick, passes a t just the right time continually leave his teammates open for easy baskets.
Duffy is a philosophy major in the Arts and Letters college and is the starting, center fielder on the baseball team. Last year he led the Irish in both triples and home runs and has aspirations to be a professional baseball player.

Impressions o f . . .
THE EASTERN SWING When I learned that I was to travel
East with the Notre Dame basketball squad to do the play-by-play of the NYU and Navy games, I was greatly elated. The Irish had so far won 17 out of 21 games and were fresh from an 89-70 victory over North Carolina in Chicago Stadium.
We were to leave from the Fieldhouse at about three o'clock Wednesday afternoon Febraary 19. I arrived.with suitcase, camera, and infoi'mation on the two opponents about 2:30.
The team was just finishing a practice session so during my wait I took a few pictures of the team and talked to Walt Huui-man, senior basketball manager.
At the airport the ticket agent told us that the runways were clear and that above the low hanging clouds the visibility was excellent.
We traveled TWA, with stops scheduled for Fort Wayne, Dayton, and Pittsburgh, before we landed at Newark International Airport.
Once on the plane I sat down next to
Co-Captain John McCarthy, who showed his appreciation for my company by immediately falling asleep. Coach Jordan and Mrs. Jordan were across the aisle, and behind them were Devine and Gene Duffy.
We had just left Pittsburgh when the card game started. I was just about oS to sleep when I heard someone from up front yell:
"Bill. How 'bout some cards?" The idea sounded good so I said I'd
join them. We played until the stewardess came
by and told us we were approaching Newark.
The view was beautiful. We could see the lights of New York before us, blinking whites, greens and hundreds of other colors.
By the time we got our luggage, called cabs, and finally arrived at the Hotel Commodore it was close to eleven o'clock. I'm sure that I was the only one there who didn't hit the sack right away. And I did as soon as I got off a couple of postcards.

Rooming with Huurman had one definite disadvantage. As manager it's Walt's job to get everyone up in the morning. So he rises first and, much against my will, I rose second.
"Getting these guys up is a real chore, so I start early."
The operator called at nine o'clock and Walt got up and went to work.
"1134, please . . . Tom? . . . F r . Barry is saying Mass at ten in St. Pat 's. . . . Be in the lobby at a quarter, of and well all go over together. . . . 921, please . . . Mike? . . .

On he went until everyone had been aroused.
Father Barry said Mass in a small chapel way in the back of the Cathedral.
After Mass the team broke up into groups and went to breakfast.
When we finished breakfast, as the team was off until two, we decided t o take a walk down 42nd street and see the sights.
As we turned a comer, we ran into Hawkins and Mickey Bekelja cominir the other way. They were both carrying packages.
"Where have you two been? . . . What's in the packages?"
"Records. They have a big sale right down the street."
That sounded good to us so we went up to the next comer and found the shop.
We looked - around for about a half hour but couldn't find anything that inr terested us so we walked down to Grand Central Station, and then, later, we went through the Rockefeller Center.

Law School Symposium Pioniied for April 18 With Supreme Court As Focal Point of Study
Describing the Supreme Court as threatened by assaults "too serious to ignore," Dean Joseph O'Meara of the Notre Dame Law School recently announced plans for an April 18 symposium here on "The Role of the Supreme Court in the American Constitutional System."
David Maxwell, Philadelphia, Pa., attorney and immediate past pi-esident of the American Bar Association, will preside at the symposium sessions. Dean O'Meara said.
Four papers dealing with various aspects of the current controversy regarding the Supreme Court will be given by Dean Eugene V. Rostow of the Yale Law School: Professor Robert A. Leflar of the University of Arkansas School of Law, Professor Sheldon D. Elliot of the New York University School of Law; and Carl McGowan, Chicago attorney and general counsel of the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad.
In outlining the scope of the symposium, Dean O'Meara emphasized that the sessions will be concerned with the Supreme Court as an institution. Stressing that the Supreme Court is not above

criticism, he declared that "the accusations and clamorous demands that fill the air are nevertheless calculated to weaken public confidence in the court and thus diminish its influence as a symbol and spokesman of the rule of law in an increasingly lawless world.
"Though much of the abuse of the court is purely partisan, a good deal of it," Dean O'Meara contended, "results from a misunderstanding of the Court's function and of the conditions under which it necessarily operates." The symposium, he explained, "will be beamed at people who are honestly mistaken about these matters." The proceedings of the symposium will be published, he added.

Alumni Secretary Schedules Universal Notre Dame Night
Thousands of alumni and friends.of the University will attend local observances of the 35th annual Universal Notre Dame Night during mid-April, according to a i-ecent announcement by executive secretaiy James E. Armstrong of the Notre Dame Alumni Association.
Dinner meetings will be held in more than 100 cities throughout the country, Armstrong said. This year's observance, he explained, will spotlight Notre Dame's new ten year $66,600,000 development progi-am as well as the importance of continuing adult education for Notre Dame men and other college graduates.
The Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C, University president, heads a group of Notre Dame officials who will address more than 50 of the alumni gatherings.
Other speakers will include Notre Dame's executive vice president. The Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C, The Rev. John J . Cavanaugh, C.S.C, director of the Notre Dame Foundation and Athletic Director Edward W. Krause.
Fr. Collins Announces New Hall Assignments
Hall assignments for next year were released last Tuesday by The Rev. A. Leonard Collins, C.S.C, dean of students.
Alumni, Walsh, Fisher and Sorin are the Senior halls, while Dillon, Pangbom, Howard and Badin will be Junior. Lyons, Morrissey, Zahm and one-half of Cavanaugh are Sophomore halls with Keenan, Stanford, Breen-Phillips, Farley and St. Edward's listed as Freshman.
This apportioning of the halls was worked out by the Senate's committee on hall assignunents, headed by Herb Riband, and Father Collins.
Stanford is a freshman hall by the wishes of Mrs. Grattan T. Stanford and Keenan will be the same, since the administration considei's them as one unit for administrating purposes.
Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores will be allowed off-campus and they will fill the vacancies in the halls of their respective classes. No Seniors will be in underclass halls, as it is this year.
If Freshman enrollment is greater than expected they will fill the other half of Cavanaugh hall; otherwise there may also be Juniors in the hall.
Students eligible to live in the same hall next year will still have to compete for their rooms on the basis of scholastic averages.

Eastern Swing Continued from page 20
Mass was in the main chapel, which is changed for the various denominations that happen to be holding sei-vices. They must have had a dance the night before because sevei'al midshipmen were there with their girls.
We ate in the regular dining hall, which is run on approximately the same procedure as ours. One improvement over our system is the fact that they bring the food to you, and they keep bringing it until you can hardly walk away from the table.
As the day wore on toward game time you could notice the tension begin to mount as the team began to think of the game.
We ate an eaily dinner and the team went' back to their bunks to rest before the game. Graney and Hawkins stuck to the pool tables.
"Hey, Tom. Why do you shoot pool before a game?"
"Keeps my fingers agile and relaxes me. How about you?"
"I'm just fighting off mental fatigue." About seven I took the WSND banner
and climbed to my booth high in the rafters. My engineer. Midshipman Second-Class Rod Tomlinson, was already there.
The Irish stai-ted cold, just as in the NYU game, but capitalized on Navy's inability to hit from the free throw line and had a twelve point lead at the half.
In the second half, the Middies made a brief surge and cut our lead to six points at one time, but we pulled away again to win it. The final score was 85-64.
When the game was over the players dressed quickly and went into Washington for the night. I visited some friends and met the team at the airport Sunday afternoon.
Ayotte and Hawkins both came in close to flight time and had to hustle to make it.
The flight was a fast one and before we knew it, we were landing at Midway airport in Chicago.
There was little time between planes and we had to move quickly to make connections.
Once aboard the South Bend plane we were greeted with the now familiar call, "Welcome aboard to the Notre Dame basketball team and congratulations."
It was a good swing East.

springi Rise, and put on your foliage, and be
seen To come forth like tlie spring-time,
fresh and green.—^Herrick.
Since spring is with us in her official capacity, this is the time to write joyful poetry and prose celebrating ker arrival. For spring is the glad time of year when life b ^ n s anew — even Christianity is seen to take cognizance of this.
But for some, spring is the frightful season, "breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain." The call to new life is no promise, but a threat — one's apathy must not be disturbed.
But spring will not allow ennui — her energy is somehow contagious. We belong too much to nature to ignore the sudden, exploding forces around us. When spring truly b ^ n s , the real world thunders into life. Sara's barrenness is ended, she is with child. Sunlight, birds, buds, and greenness are aU united in the symphony of life, the opus commemorating birth and childhood. For spring is the childish season, the time for beginnings.
Spring, though, is harmony, not discord. Fresh sounds, birth sounds, inspire this symphony; sunlight and green unify this canvas. Here there is order, things are in place; but formalization is forbidden. The scene is right, but not at reason's bidding. For spring is the time of liinng and enjoj^ng, not the time of thinking. Thought is out of place — it does not blend with a green background. Only life is for the living — speculation is for heroes or monsters.
Spring is the season of new life, the season to seize life. And to live, one must love — spring is tiie season of love. This love is for. everything, for grass and trees, for sun and rain, for man and woman. Nor can God be. excluded, for tibe oQiers are only truly loved in loving Him. Love is the center, the basis of man. Without it, he cannot live, he can- -not exist; without love, humanity dies. Love is the air of human existence, the foundation of all doing. Here is the
.cipher that explains all .tilings—it is tiie key to God'Himself. ' For CSod is Love, and the world is an : expresaon of Loye.'~ Christ dies and life; snrraiders, Christ irises and love con-qnets. Tfcte Fbodux takes shape anew,: wcbd la^t avertxmeB darkness. Love,is^;
triumphant — sterility shatters on fertility. Spring is the time of resurrection, of life renewing itself. Spring demands the decision to live, and this is the choice of love.
Since love is the meaning, since love is always the meaning, love is greater than knowledge. The scale must dip on love's side. Loving, not knowing, is the culmination of man. Knowledge may tempt, but the lover can do no wrong. The power that knowledge brings is as death compared to the strength of love. Spring has the life-force — its energy is love.
Spring being the time for birth and life, it is the season of childhood. Only the young can enjoy this time, but youth is ofiFered to everyone. For sprii^ is not exclusive, it invades the hearts of all. Because youth and spring are together, youth is a gi-een time. Childhood is g reen in sunlight.
Green in sunlight carries one through time. In my green memory I am a child in a green world, in a green field imder warm sun. The field is vast, but it is full, and in its fullness I am happy. I run and walk, I climb hills and wade streams and everywhere I am in green and sunlight. There are shadows too, but they are jojrful shadows, belonging to the sun. The sun is pleasant, and I am free in my happiness and happy in my freedom. In my g reen youth, joy is warm and gfreen — this youth is better than any youth, so delicious that no time has ever been as good. Through the green lens my years vanish and I romp in the green field. I am alone and I am surrounded, but above all I am happy; for the green glass obscures all pain, showing only good. In the warmth and. greenness I change and I remain the same — for this greenness is the past and must always remain the past. Alas, I cannot go through the. green glass —'• I must watch from a distance. : Though kept from this green youth, there is another open. Through the greenness of spring youth is offered .to all. There is nothing of value to lose; only a confined outlook.: i l i e past imposes no rules on the p r ^ n t ~ one need only hold himself open to the fnll-heaa of spring, the fullness of life. Sprii^ < bears infinite promise, but it must be taken. ^\
Hie .fullness'. of spring bverwhelms -^; it satisfiies all, lacking iiolliing. But it i s .
especially a time of sensation — it must be seen and heard, it must be smelled, and felt. Sprinf^ is greenness and laughter, it is violets and damp earth, and dirt crumbling in one's fingers. Spring is wholeness, completeness — it is for all of man.
But spring is demanding as a lover, requiring the gift of self. Only by delivering oneself without reserve can one know her joys. Custom and habit must be shed to approach her mystery — she demands that her neophytes be garbed only in wonder. When spring has received her supplicants, giving themselves lovingly, she grants access to her mysteries. The richness, the bounty of spring is held for the initiate — only he can lose himself in the mass of sights-and sounds and smells. The whole world comes to life and life comes within as well. The initiates are first of all alive,! for spring has nothing for a speculative] monster or a mere actor. One must truly] live and love to belong to spring.
Spring rises upon a barren landscape! and transforms it into a drama of birthJ and life. In the stillness of death, spring p introduces the melody of the living. The| husk is broken off and the delicious fruit^^ set- free.
In spring gray becomes green, andlS green carries with it all possible hues.]^ There is the green of the grass and thef blue of the sky, the green of the leaf and the yellow of the flower, there is^^ green, and pink and yellow and violet,tl and green again. Gray becomes greei^ and silence becomes song. The song is! from birds and laughter and life — W( are in a green world but can make song ourselves. Birth is a song and life is a song — living is the voice of the world,f : and spring is the concert hall and the^ melody; Spring is a glad time — her colors are jgay colors, her picture the gayest of pictures — and the springs song of the living is a happy song, a; song about joy.
But all. this drama of spring is dullness itself to the viewer — only the actors, enjoy it. For in this role, one plays no role; the players do not play at life, they live it. Only the existing kiiqw spring, for them is her pleasure lield..,One must.make.tiie leap into ex-isbaioe^ wtere joy is to be found; Springi is tt» season for birth and rebirth, whai b^^r jink, to begin to live?
