It’s wonderful to be back to the beauty of leaves falling, to be welcomed by our friends, and to feel familiar with the layout of a university campus, our American home, Shakespeare at Notre Dame. It has certainly been emulated and copied as much as any college song in history, but it has never been equaled. The Victory March was written in 1908 by two Notre Dame graduates, Father Michael Shea and his brother John. They first performed the song on their music teacher’s church organ in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It is often said Notre Dame has difficulties in the transfer portal. I remember repeating these two sentences as I went down the Notre Dame Football stadium tunnel for the first time, waiting for just a few more minutes to march in front of a crowd of 80,000 Irish fans. The Notre Dame Victory March was born, and was first played at Notre Dame on Easter Sunday in 1909. in pursuit of his first victory (and an elusive watch) in the prestigious race. Notre Dame Band Director Joseph Casasanta skillfully arranged the piece to sound the way we hear it today.Ĭasasanta (director from 1919 to 1942) went on to compose the alma mater, Notre Dame, Our Mother, and the other famous Notre Dame football songs, Hike, Notre Dame, When Irish Backs Go Marching By, and Down the Line. O’Brien, director from 1952 to 1986 added Damsha Bua (the Victory Clog). The rummy game is played with a normal deck of 52 cards.Ĭurrent director Ken Dye composed the Celtic Chant. Dealership alternates from round to round, with the first dealer chosen by any agreed upon method. Each player is dealt 10 cards, face down, one at a time alternately. The next card from the deck is turned face up to indicate the start of the discard pile. The remaining of the deck, positioned face down, is called the stock pile.

The Discard After drawing one card, he must now decide which one card he needs the least (not fitting to create a set or a run).The Draw On the first turn of the round, the non-dealing player must take a card from the stock pile or the upcard on the discard pile and add it to the 10 cards in his hand.You cannot use the same card for both a Run and a Set.ĭuring the gameplay, the two main elements in a single turn are the draw and the discard: The objective of the game is to finish with a hand consisting most cards formed into Sets and/or Runs. He must then take this card out of his hand and put it on the discard pile, facing up.
