It has been sometimes said, by Arts and Letters students, that Commerce men are dull, rather mer- cenary individuals. Now we know this isn ' t true at all. If it were true then they would have gone somewhere else where they could have really had a complete course in how to be a junior executive. At Notre Dame the authorities have the idea that students, whether they are majoring in Philology or Business Machines, should know a bit about what it is to think. Thus Commerce men are given healthy doses of philosophy I logic, metaphysics, psy- chology and ethics ) , religion and literature. This is what is known as teaching men not only how to make a living but how to live! Dean McCarthy seems to be of the opinion that there is something more to living than acquiring grubby cash, so he insists on his boys really getting something of an education. So look over the College of Commerce. It is a rare object. It not only teaches its men how to fight the good fight in the brokerage offices, but also how to live a decent and constructive life. Better we should have more of them! Page 68

An assortment of seventy-odd veterans and non-veterans turned out. A few battle-wise vets, admittedly not too over-awed by those smart-looking uniforms, started out with tongue in cheek. But their suspicions soon disappeared. First, there was the matter of a check, about twenty-four dollars, each month. (Everyone gets it during his junior and senior years, vets entering the unit as juniors, and all others as freshmen.) Secondly, there was the credit deal. Four class hours a week, plus an hour ' s close-order drill, proved good for three elective credits. Courses revealed secrets of guided missiles, air operations, mete- orology, and air intelligence to mention a few. Finally, men ambitious to fly found they had priority second only to West Point grads for flight training at Randolph Field. This energetic first-year group, convinced of their good fortune by Spring, staged soon after Easter their first annual military ball, formal, with all the trimmings.
