It was a tragic break of the SOUTH BEND, lnd.t Oct. 7. So long as Notre Dame engages in football, the names of two immortals will remain inspirational Tforces, inescapably bound with the drama and tenor of the game.

It is almost as if they still live Knute Rockne and George GIpp so fresh' is their memory in the minds of Notre Dame men. Every act of the Fighting Irish in football brings some sort of suggestion of comparison of the Rock and the Gipper. And the influence of the two is powerful in the tradition of Notre Dame football. They are the central themes of talks to the squad when it deemed the Fighting Irish need added incentive to surmount a formidable obstacle. The Gipper is the symbol of Notre'Dame football at its best: the Rock is Notre Dame football.

At the opposite end of the campus from the handsome football stadium, immortalized forever in the stone of the Rockne Memorial field house, is the name of Knute K. Rockne. It is a "memorial of action" and succeeding generations of students will recall the immigrant boy from Norway whose deeds began with his enrollment at Notre Dame in 1910 and his death in 1931. So impressed is his name upon the public consciousness that he will never be forgotten as long as Americans participate in athletics. The field house was constructed at a cost of and builders have provided the athletic facilities the Rock would have wanted.

And yet, with its fine swim-minjr pool, basketball and indoor tennis courts, th memorial nature of the structure has been keot vividly in mind. The building is done in modern vothic There is a bust of Rockne and carved figures of athletes in various sports grace the outer walls. There is no impressive memorial to the Gripper. It fust happens that the freshness of his memory in the minds of Notre Dame men is one of those intangible things. He is the Ideology of Irish football, -i, THE ROCK OF NOTRE DAME." Dr.

John J. Ryan, of t. Paul, expressed the sentiment of Notre Dame men everywhere when he composed "The Rock of Notre This memorial in words is lasting and impressive. Fling vlde the chape! doors of Notre Dame; Let the farflung thousands who revere his name Gather in silence, and in requiem, Mute homage pay the Rock of Notre Dame. Let the tramp of marching feet beside the bier Go echoing o'er the sporting world to hear A lasting tribute to a man of might, A noble soldier stricken at the height.

Leader and comrade of the boys he knew, And taught the game as only he could do; Taught them as well, to play the game of life With courage born on battlefields of strife. Taught that the game is greater than the name Of any individual seeking fame; That team play, fairness and the will to win Will carry on to victory in the end.
