Ready to Start $750,000 Stadium New Athletic Plant in In diana Will Seat Sixty Thousand (By N. C. W. C. News Service) NOTRE DAME, Ind.—Prelimin ary building operations began this week on Notre Dame’s newest ad dition to its athletic plant—a $50,- 000 stadium which will seat 670,000 football fans. The new stadium will fill a want long felt by Natre Dame athletic teams. Although “Fighting Irish” teams, manned by Knute Rockne, always have drawn hundreds of thousands of sport lovers each fall, Notre Dame has never been able to play host to a large ma jority of these crowds due to its poor accommodations. Present plans call for the play ing of the first games in the sta dium during the fall of 1930. As soon as the present stands on Car- tier Field are torn down, grass will be planted on the proposed site of the new field and ground will be broken for the stadium proper. Authorities here are not prepared to indicate the plan of the struc ture. Although many of the Amer ican stadia are built of concrete, it is thought that Notre Dame will keep with the more modern ten dency which calls for stadia built of steel and faced with brick. Half a dozen architects have submitted plans for the structure, which will prfibably be of horseshoe design. E. F. Carry, Pullman Company Head, Dies Widely Known Catholic Lay man Was International Authority on Transporta tion (By N. C. W. C. News Service) CHICAGO. — Edward Fran cis Carry, president of the Pullman Company, a Knight of St. Gregory and a Knight of Malta, died at his home here April 24, at the age of 61 years. His health had been fail ing for some time, but, until a week ago, he had been able to be at his Pullman Company office. Mr. Carry was born at Fort Wayne, Ind., May 16, 1867. He was secretary of the Wells & French Company and in 1899 then joined the American Foundry Company, advancing to the position of first vice-president and manager in 1915. He accepted the presidency of the Haskell & Barker Car Company, Inc., in January, 1916, and remain ed with that company until 1922, when he became president of^the Pullman Company. When the Fed eral Shipping Board, of which he was director of operations, com mandeered all American ocean-go ing ships over a given tonnage in 1917, Mr. Carry became probably the leading shipping master of the world. He was later named chair man of a port, terminal and harbor improvement commission charged with the Jinking up of all railways and shipping lines in an effort to eliminate unnecessary delays. He was a trustee of the Emergency Fleet Corporation from August, 1918, to January, 1919. Mr. Carry is survived by his widow, who was Mabel D. Under wood, of Chicago, and by two daughters, Mrs. Ermina Nicholson and Mrs. Margaret Cudahy.

Historic North Carolina Mission Is Reopened Maco Chapel Was Closed When Congregation Moved Away el of G. at Orlande Special to The Bulletin) WILMINGTON, N. C.-JShe Catholic mission at Maco, formerly knowp as Farmers, or Farmers’ Turnout, in Brunswick County, founded by the beloved Father Mark Gross imme diately after the War Between the States and closed some years ago when members of the little congrega tion moved away, was re-opened late in April to minister to the Catholic who have recently moved into the neighborhood. A motorcade carried members of the Wilmington congre gation to the re-opening services. The first congregation consisted of the late Wm. R. Henry and his wife and three daughters; they came here from Moore’s. Creek, Pender Coun ty. One of the daughters, Martha, married Major James Reilly, the fa mous hero of Fort Fisher, grand father of James O. Reilly, prominent in Wilmington; Amelia married W. A. Alderman, and Anna married Frank Jones. Other Catholics moved in, funds were collected for a chapel, and it was dedicated by Bishop North rop, a special train being run from ■Wilmington for the occasion. Major Reilly and others interested themselves in the founding of a Cath olic school, St. Paul’s, and Miss Kate Sweeney, now of Wilmington, was the first teacher. In this school many non-Catholics as well as Catholics received their first education. Fo a while the congregation thrived, but finally the families began to move away until but one member remain ed, Mrs. Charlotte Williams, who died in Richmond. Va., about a year ago. In the beautiful cemetery adjoining St. Paul’s lie the remains of rela tives, of many of the most highly re spected citizens of this section. Whh the return to the community of Catholic families the little chapel, long without Mass, will again become a center of religious life and it is anticipated that its flourishing days of years ago will be repeated and ex ceeded. (Special to The' Bulletin) ORLANDO, Fla.—The golfing knights and all visiting knights in Orlando and vicinity played off their second annual golf tourna ment April 7 and 14, over the beautiful San lan do Golf Springs course. Father Ryan, of Kissimee took the honors for the low gross score with an 83, and Jos. R. Kenney came in as runner-up with a low gross of 85.

Carl Pleus was next for honors with a net of 79, winning a golf sweater donated by Charles Rock, Jr., Sporting Goods Store. Others winning prizes do nated by the council and merchants of Orlando were, Dick Wash, Jerry Mayer, Leonard Bumby, Bill Mur phy and Jim Kenney. All prizes were presented at the regular council meeting held Tues day April 16, by the lecturer, Thomas Kenney, under the good of the order, with the largest attend ance at the meeting that the coun cil enjoyed for some time. This proves that sporting events of a good wholesome nature will get out the attendance, and the council is now preparing to hold its first ten nis tournament, at which the City of Orlando Recreation department will furnish the use of the ei4# courts and will officiate. Considerable talk has been going on about running a state of Florida golf tournament here in Orlando, and the council would like some ex pressions on this from golfing knights in the state either direct to Mr. Kenney, or through The Bul letin. Only qualifications are that you must be in good standing. Bishop Keyes Officiates a! Memorial Mass Savannah Council Remem bers Its Dead Memorial Day (Special to The Bulletin) SAVANNAH, Ga.—Rt. Rev.
