X X: ToDAY W To most modern youth, the days when gas lamps and horse-drawn carriages gave way to the first incandescent lights and crude auto- mobiles seem a part of the remotest past. We Notre Dame students, however, feel linked to that inventive age by a special tie since it was exactly sixty years ago, 1879, that our alma mater began to function as an educational institution. Enthusiastic as we are about all that is new and modern, we cannot suppress our curiosity about Notre Dame's development during those three score years. And what of the pupils of those times? How would their school life compare with ours? We cannot find a better means of answering these questions, or a greater way to pay tribute to our schoo1's progress than to contrast the typical Notre Dame girl of yester- year with the typical Notre Dame girl of today. In the pages to follow, you will see these two as they enact all the phases of Catholic high-school life: religious, social, athletic and schol- astic. Follow them and share with us the romantic epic of Notre Dame -past and present--as told in Tower Memories of 1939.

T HIS GRACE Born March 12, 1866 in Bavaria, Bishop Schrembs came to America at an early age. After long years of study, he was rewarded with ordination to the priesthood on June 29, 1889. It was in 1921, after ten years of zealous service as the Hrst bishop of Toledo, that he was transferred to the bishopric of the Cleveland Diocese. Of his labors here we need say little, for the splendid record speaks for itself. His judicious administration of the affairs of his oflice and his unselfish efforts on behalf of numerous leagues, have distinguished him as an outstanding churchman. It is not surprising then, that Bishop Schrembs' years of service and leadership should be climaxed with a singular honor when the newly-reigning Pope Pius XII, in his first official act concerning the American Hierarchy, conferred upon him the title, Archbishop We at Notre Dame congratulate our bishop upon his new appointment and also upon his Hfty years in the priesthood, and feel that there is significance in the fact that our sixtieth anniversary falls in the same year as that of his golden jubilee. For Archbishop Schrembs' inspiration and support have done more than any other single factor in making Notre Dame what it is today.
