Kay's interest in the organizations work was first aroused during her attendance, as a sophomore, at the JRC Training Center in New Orleans. This was the beginning of a growing sense of generosity and conviction. Returning to the Academy in her junior year, Kay was elected school president of the JRC. With an idealist sense of leadership, she served as an incentive for many To work for others, and with these convictions, Kay was elected citywide president in the beginning of her senior school year.

TLIDENTS RE DER SUMMER SERVICE Recalling the memories of days well spent at Caritas, the lay apostolate teaching center, are Myrna Abadie, Rosalie Handayan, jackie Schroeder, , Gail Main, and Anna Englcrt. They used this time, during their vacation E months, to instruct children of St. Philip's parish in catechism, by means of music, arts, and crafts. Among Camp Marvhill's councillors were some of the students from Holy Angels. Each had a particular task for instructing those under her care. Their stay at Camp Maryhill afforded them an opportunity of spreading their faith by good example as well as a chance of practicing leadership.
