Volume 4  No.2                                                              October 2001

This month's edition of Irish Reveries will feature the story of Paul Hornung, Notre Dame's "Golden Boy."  Dick Shaap wrote the following in an article from Sport Magazine: "In 1956 Notre Dame had a football team named Paul Hornung. He did everything. He ran. He kicked. He passed. He tackled. He intercepted passes. Surrounded by the walking wounded, playing for a team crippled by injuries, Hornung was the whole show. His record was amazing.  He finished second in the country in total offense with 1,337 yards gained. He completed 59 of 111 passes (with 13 interceptions) and, ran 94 times for 420 yards."

The feature article on Paul will be a story from Wake Up The Echoes by Ken Rappoport.

This month's edition of Out of Bounds will feature tidbits on Paul's exploits as an off-campus legend.

Shenanigans will feature a story about Mrs. Hornung, Bear Bryant and the Governor of Kentucky.

Campus Life will honor Jim Flanigan '94. He has been given the Harvey G. Foster Award. From The Alumni Newsletter, September 2001.

Semper Victurus - This edition will feature excerpts taken from the archives of Notre Dame's campus magazine, The Scholastic, on Paul's last season for the Irish.

Herb's Archive will feature Paul Hornung's news release, published by Charles Callahan, ND's Sports Information Director at the time.
