National Organization for Women, agreed
that a woman's priorities may not be
directed toward becoming politically in¬
formed.
"I would suspect that most women are
uninformed. They're fixing dinner while
the news is on...I dont see how a woman
who is informed could vote for Ronald
Reagan," Eckles said.
When the analysts of last week's elec¬
tion is in, Webber believes there will be
more cftntradictions.
She said one contradiction is the re¬
election of a democratic house and the
addition of two democratic seats in tbe
senate, while giving President Reagan
another term in the White House.
There will be another test of Republi¬
can strength in 1986 when one-third ofthe
Senate will be decided. Republicans will
be trying to hold on to 22 seats while 12
democratic spots will be up for contention.

former Notre Dame football coach Knute
Rockne still gets around prclty well.
Over the last year lhe 100 pound, two-
foot tall Knute Rockne bust has attended
al least one student graduation parly,

journeyed to Indianapolis recently for the

receive a ransom note and photograph of
the campus football legend sunning al an
unnamed beach.
Among other things, the note warned
that Rockne would noi return "until the

rounded by a boom-box radio, a keg of
beer and a frisbee.
In the meantime, the empty pedestal in
Rockne Memorial became too much to
bear for many students and administra¬
tors. Hoping to recapture at least some of
the aura of the missing Rockne. officials
replaced it with a smaller replica dubbed
"Rockne Junior."
Ovef the summer, campus police, be¬
fuddled by the mystery of the missing
bust, began working on leads that Rockne
was hiding out somewhere in Los Angeles,
recalls Notre Dame Security Chief Glenn
On Sept. 11, a few days after a Notre
Dame-Purdue football game, Observer
editors received a second anonymous note
and several photographs showing Rockne
in a Purdue sweatshirt standing in front
of a welcome sign to Purdue University in
Lafayette, Ind.
"1 went on a long road trip to see this
game." the note began, "and I'm really
disappointed. The football team has never
scored this poorly."
The one-page, typewritten "message was
signed "Knute Rockne."
"We still have no idea why the notes and
photos were sent to us,"savs Vonderheide.
"There was a similar disappearance in
the 1950s involving the statue of Father
Theodore Sorin—founder of the univer¬
sity—which was kept on display in one of
the residence halls," recalls Dick Conklin,
public information director and long-time
Notre Dame staffer.
"The statue mysteriously disappeared
one night, and later we began getting
postcards with postmarks from all around
the world—Paris, London, Rome—saying
things like 'Having a wonderful time, wish
you were here'and signed 'Father Sorin.""

said, "is the parent."
The project will entail training parents
and their children basic principles of par¬
enting and general health. An indu idual-
ized one-year program.'she said, will be
developed for each family and will include
a diet plan and nutrition information
According to Ybarra, diabetes is espe¬
cially common among farmworkers Chi¬
cana women are reported to have eight
times the rate of diabetes as ihe general
public, she said.
Social workers and educator in ihe
program will first test each child to iden¬
tify any disability problems. Because sea¬
sonal farmworkers cannot usually afford
regular medical care, and because of the
lack of sen. ices for lhe disabled in genera I.
she said, many children suffer special
problems that long go undetected.
"Migrant children." Ybarra said, also
"lend lo be exposed to more danger in the
field, such as rashes, loss of limbs and
poor nutrition that leads to learning
disabilities."
"The conditions which they live under
set them up for acquiring disabilities."
Through the project, she said, physi¬
cally handicapped children will be taught
how to perform functions necessary to
survival such as walking without a limb.
Ybarra said, there is a reason why the
project was favored over other requests
for public funding during a time when
educational grants are diminishing.
By teaching low-income families self-
sufficiency, Ybarra believes the project
helps prevent those in need from becom¬
ing "an economic burden to society."
"In the long run, we're finding out that
children with learning handicaps can be
helped to become very constructive to
society. The money that we spend to train
children will be a benefit to society if it
makes them less dependent on others,"
Ybarra said.
Both the Observer and The Notre
Dame Monthly, the campus magazine,
did stories last spring recounting the Sorin
statue caper, Vonderheide says.
Rockne's bust vanished only days after
the articles appeared. It finally was re¬
turned at a Sept. 23rd pep rally.
"It just showed up during the rally,"
