m THEME THE DOME pays tribute to a race that has lived, fought, played and learned with an intense Courag and Imagination,— the Men of Ireland. Because of a rich significance, the DOME in its Silver Anniversary, goes back, for its theme, to the early story of that nation. «««This significance will not, we hope, be attributed to the absurdity that Notre Dame is an Irish School . Boys of German, Scotch, Mexican, French and Indian ancestry have given Notre Dame her character,— a cos- mopolitan one. We are thankful for that,- racial or sectional bias is a weak excuse for true love of country. Notre Dame, however, we like to believe, has had that bold independence of mind ,that curiosity and activ- ity , and above all, that vigourof thought ' that Cardinal Newman has named as the characteristics of the Irish race. «««Our theme and sub-theme, therefore, go deeper Y ' than the football headlines,- they symbolize rather well the splendid tradition that has been Notre Dame ' s. The theme pages depict Irish life about the time of the fifth century. The sub-theme is an excursion into the realm of elves and leprecauns. s ii:Q»m m W 5 WWW-iS W '
