Smtunh gezzinn tIHYH-YQ The old saw is that in the first year they scare you to death, the second year they work you to death, and the third year they bore you to death. It can be true-but sometimes, the bore- dom comes earlier than that. Second year at Hoynes: ttthe Big Four? Con. Law, Federal Tax, Business Associa- tions, and Commercial Trans. Time to take the other core courses: Evidence and Property Settlement. Apart from the studies we enjoyed ourselves: the picnic, the Halloween party, the Sangria party, the Tequila party. The school year was dominated by news of the Watergate scandal, a crisis fllled, sadly, with lawyers. On another front, Notre Dame won the college football National Championship. The highlights were the Southern Cal. game in South Bend and the Sugar Bowl. The Irish defeated U.C.L.A. in basket- ball, breaking their incredible winning streak. The class of 1975 took command in the Spring: the Directorships, the Edi- torships, and the Presidency.
