Published by the Students of mzcuzciafion agchooffoz gills North Side, Pittsburgh, Pa. F ORE WORD As students of a high school that bears the title of Our Lady's Feast, the Annunciation, we thought it fitting to change the name of our annual to "THE ANGELUSH-A prayer that relates the events of the ANNUNCIATION. Since the "Ave Maria" is always blended with the "Angelus" we have expressed in verse the thoughts contained in these two beautiful prayers in honor of God's Sweet Virgin-Mother. DEDICA TION To our Beloved Mothers through Mary, the QUEEN OF MOTHERS, this the Tenth Volume of our High School Annual is affectionately dedicated. May our Heavenly Queen obtain from her Divine Child the choicest blessings for our own dear mothers whose love and sacrihce have enabled us to receive our education within the portals of Annunciation under Our Lady's care. 'ww viii S ANNUNCIATION H1014 SCHOOL, N. S., Piwsauuuu, PA. FOR GOD AND COUNTRY "The parochial high school stands as the champion of faith and justiceg stands monu- mentally as an undying witness to the love of Mother Church for the souls of her children. The perfection of the Catholic high school is the advance of all those truths which are the saving salt of intellectuality, of all those doctrines which purify and strengthen a people. The best high school is that wherein physical, intellectual, and moral soundness are procurableg wherein nothing detrimental to body and mind and soul-growth be found." .Mm ,...

O'CONNELL, A B To the Class of '40: The long awaited day about which you have so often dreamed is soon to dawn! Your individual names as well as the record of the class will soon be transcribed on the graduate register. As you leave the stage of Norwood Hall on the evening of your formal graduation, the heaviness of heart you will then experience at the thought of severing the class ties that bind you to your classmates will be made somewhat lighter if you reflect that you will all meet again at Holy Mass on Sunday, June sixteenth. Your sorrow will be turned into joy at the Sacred Banquet Table where you and Christ will be One. This Joy no one can take from you. Let Joy then be the keynote of your graduation! As defined in the New Century Dic- tionary, Joy is an emotion arising from present or expected good. Your "present good" and the cause for joy is that you are equipped with a thorough Christian education as a result of the sacrifices of your good parents and teachers. Your "expected good" is, because of your Catholic training, you will be able to take your place in life in a manner pleasing to God and man. l am certain that you who were favored to live each day of your school life under the prudent guidance of the Immaculate Nlother of God will be true to her. Herein lies your hope of continued joy. ln your journey through life, rejoice in the fact that you are a graduate of Annunciation High School. Let the soul-stirring scene of the Annunciation be engraved deeply in your heart, so that in imitation of your Heavenly Queen you will be ever ready to unite your will in humble submission to the Holy Will of God. May your life be a joyous journey with Mary and may the joyful strains of her Magnificat fill your soul with unending joy and may you, when the course of life is run, know the thrill of the Eternal Joys of Heaven! Faithfully yours, L. A. O'CON NELL. Im. REV C. M. F1NK, A. B. It has been said and rightly so that "a good heart makes a good face" perhaps not a pretty face but a refined and a noble one. And just as "the stars are the windows of Heaven where Angels peep through" so are the eyes the windows of the soul in which all that is good and noble and true is spontaneously reflected. We all are irresistibly drawn to the beautiful .We love the beautiful whether we see that beauty in a face, in a painting, in nature or in the stars of the heavens or in the beauties of our religion. The thing we love, that we are attracted by and drawn towards. Since God is Beauty Itself, there should our love lie. Beauty begets beauty. Thus it is that one noble soul is attracted by another beautiful soul. Keep your souls beautiful and your lives will be beautiful. Your inner spiritual qualities are the ones that give you true charm and these you should strive to develop. The seeds of character have been planted here at A. H. S. The success of your lives depends upon how these seeds are nurtured and cultivated. lt is your duty to see that they are watered with the graces of God, sprinkled with your own good deeds and warmed by the sun- shine of a life constant and steadfast to God and neighbor. And now that you are graduating you are leaving the days of your childhood behind and a new, more mature life opens before you. Remain ever close to the principles taught you here and whenever in life you weary of the struggle turn to the Fountain of all Graces and He will refresh you. Nlay the star of your life he ever bright and always in the ascendancy. Nlay your love of purity illuminate the star of you life and be as resplendent and enduring as the sun in the heavens. God bless You. CHAS. M. FINK. Angelus Fzfleen i T i THE Rav. HOWARD J. Fokn, A. B For the Graduates of 1940: Oh Nlary, from thy garden choose And gather to thy heart This new bouquet of fair young lives. Protect them as they chart Their journey by the morning star Of thy sweet purity That they may find the peaceful way Unto their Mother's knee. HOWARD J.

Anyone who wants a steaming hot meal in winter or an appetizing luncheon in summer, just visit our cafeteria between the hours of eleven and twog and be assured that you will be hospitably received and well served. A vote of thanks is hereby extended to our faithful, cheerful friend-M rs. Schad, and to her gracious helpers who have served us almost eight hundred delicious lunches during our four years at Annunciation. V Tl THE STUDENT BODY PRAYS THE MASS AND OFFERS IT WITH THE PRIEST. "The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass was instituted by Our Lord at the Last Supper, when Ho pronounced the words that caused bread to be changed into His Adorable Body, and wine to be changed into His Precious Blood. To the Catholic the MASS is a precious pearl of great price, which the Church has sought through the centuries to give a setting worthy of its Divine Donor. She enshrined the sacred words of consecration in a liturgy of overwhelming majesty, uniting the inspired utterance of psalmist and prophet with the fervent outpourings of her own saints and prophets." An appreciation of the Mass as the most sublime act of man's homage to God is expected of every Catholic student. n ge Zus Fllffj'-5L'1'l'II :mrs-L .. "l HAVE LOVED, O LORD, THE BEAUTY OF THY HOUSEg AND THE PLACE WHERE THY GLORY DWELLETH."HPsalm 25. In love and fervor we repeated these words as we left the church at the close of our annual retreat. This year we were fortunate in having as retreat master the Rev. Andrew J. Pauley, our bishop's secretary. During the three days of recollection, at the heart to heart conferences, Father impressed upon us the fact that all who are now in heaven arrived there through prayer, and that those who are lost are lost through lack of prayer. Father urged us to pray as we had never prayed before and especially for the intention of our Holy Father that peace might be restored among nations. The last exercise of retreat was a Holy Hour in which we participated actively hy singing and praying, and by promising to respond to the loving invitation of Christ: "Can you not watch one hour with me?"

However, the Yellow Witch and Fairy God- mother wish him to marry Cinderella, and determine to foil the plans of the Duchess. The Yellow Witch entices the Duchess and her daughters to the witch's cottage on the Moor, and leaves Cinderella with Tom Thumb alone in the Castle. Tom Thumb plans to give a party during the absence of the Duchess, and goes to invite the guests. While he is away the Prince, who has been wandering about the town, knocks at the kitchen door to ask for a drink of water. He sees Cinderella and falls in love with her. After his departure Tom Thumb returns and is followed by the guests to the party. ACT II This act opens with the Fairy Godmother and her band of fairies dancing on the lawn. They leave before the arrival of the Duchess and her daughters. The Duchess, transported with joy at the success of her plans, is sure one of her daughters will be the prince's bride. The Prince is melancholy for he cannot forget Cinderella. Disguised as a strange lady, Cinderella comes to the ball and again meets the Prince who becomes more and more enraptured with her beauty and charm. The clock strikes the hour of twelve, and Cinderella flees leaving one of her slippers behind her. When the King offers a reward for news of the beautiful girl, the Fairy Godmother enters and tells who Cinderella really is. When escorted by fairies Cinderella returns to the ball, the Prince tries on the slipper and finds it a perfect tit. He claims Cinderella as his bride. The curtain falls as the King calls for a toast "Long Live the Prince and his Bride, the lovely Cinderella."

Class H istory MEIVIORARE Remember O most gracious Virgin Mary, as we remember, how under your protection we struggled at Annunciation through four short years of the game of Life. After assisting at the Holy sacrifice of the Mass on that sunny September morning in the year 1936, we assembled at Annunciation gym for the most important basketball game of our lives. As an inexperienced squad, we opened our season with very tough opponents Studies. After a short delay during which we donned our uniforms, reviewed the regulations and penalties, and invoked the aid of Our Lady of Victory, we took our places on the floor. The whistle blew! The game started! The referee, Sister Lucille, tossed the ball of Knowledge to our center who passed it to the right forward. That frightened freshman fumbled and had a toss-up with Algebra. Both players strove desperately to gain possession of the ball. The referee, noticing that we were charging on School Spirit, called the first foul of the game Initiation. We caught the ball as it rebounded from the bankboard, completed a perfect pass. and made our first basket when we presented the play "Mimi Lights The Candle." Time out was called for Christmas vacation. No sooner had play been resumed than we were tripped by mid-year exams. Fearfully approaching the foul line our forward made a successful free shot and scored another point. Our in the center tossed the ball down the key. English, ever alert, intercepted the pass and hurled it to General Science a pivot shot and the ball was in. At final examinations Studies landed on top of us and we were given a free shot. Shaking nervously we hurled the ball of Knowledge. lt went in. Just then the whistle blew and the first quarter ended with us in the lead by a score of five credits. Feeling confident we again took our places on the floor. The referee, exhausted after the vigorous first quarter, was replaced by Sister Vincent Mary. The new subs, Biology and American History, promptly reported to her while General Science and Ancient History left the floor amid rousing cheers. During the first minute of the second quarter the sensational set shot, Father Delaney's Retreat, was scored. Again our team received the ball, worked it to the key from where we tossed a Valentine Party alloting two more points. Latin fouled by pushing with a Vocabulary Contest. We shot - the ball hit the rim of the basket but did not go in. Recovering the ball a guard passed it to our star forward who took a shot with the camera and two points were added when our pictures appeared in the Annunciator. After a long rest we lined up and took the floor for the second half. Sister Geraldine replaced our referee who was needed for another game. The substitutions, French, Book- keeping, Shorthand, and Typing reported and the game continued. lntercepting the ball as it was passed from Latin to French we pivoted and shot a perfect goal by receiving our Class Rings. Then we really started to dance around the floorg the Junior Hop added two more points to our score. During Vocation Week we used a trick play, "The Call", to chalk up another basket. With only seconds to play in the quarter, time was called out while we made a Spiritual Retreat under Father Patrick Rice. Since this was the last quarter of the game we begged our Blessed Mother to help us persevere in the few remaining minutes. Our coach Sister Florence acted as referee. Seeing that we were catching on to Geometry our coach rushed Chemistry into the game. When this tricky forward was called for steps. the ball was taken out on the side lines. We caught it on the court with our Graduation Pictures. Just as we were about to score, Dramatics hacked and we were allowed two free shots. Our forward put the ball through by presenting "Madonna ot the Rose" and "Little Women". Time out was taken to visit Buhl Planetarium. Their in we leaped into the air and intercepted the ball as it was passed to Music, threw it to one of our forwards who took a pivot shot and scored two points with the operetta "Cinderella." Passing excitedly through Commencement Week we again got possession of the ball of Knowledge and tossed for our last sensational basket, Graduation. The game was over. Now that we had scored a decisive victory our coach and referees were ready to send us on Life's gym to defeat tougher opponents. Confiding in thy goodness and mercy we cast ourselves at thy sacred feet. Let it not be said, our dearest Mother, that we have failed where everyone else has found success.

SODALITY As a result of Father O'Connell's enthusiastic encouragement, we pupils at Annunchrtion High are active members of our Lady's Sodalrty. This bond being established so firmly while we are still at school will be a lasting link after we have been graduated. Every fourth Tuesday of the month we have a meeting in the new club room of Norwood Hall where we plan projects whose completion and success show that we know how to manage a bake sale, how to raise money and collect gifts for poor children, how to serve a supper to the congregation, and how to hold an old fashioned nickelodeum, and most important how to act as children of a QUEEN. SCIENCE CLUB This club was most active during the first semester. Many trick or novel experiments were demonstrated in the hall for the benefit of the sophomores and freshmen. The president of the club, Mary Louise Onilor, has seine interesting surprises planned tor observation, and the other members of the club are preparing for a science exhibition to be held the first week of June. CATHOLIC ACTION CLUB One of the features of every well organized Catholic High School is a Catholic Action Club. We know that this club has been successful in awakening us to the realization that we, Catholic students, should be lay apostles. Many eloquent conferences were held in behalf of home and foreign missions. Among the first fruits was the great enthusiasms shown at the call et The Confraternity of Christian Doctrine for volunteers to teach Sunday School for the children in distant mining towns and in vicinities where there is no Catholic school. The follow- ing girls who generously answered the call have been remarkably faithful in attending their classes regularly: Margaret Frazier, Jean Vuletich, Maureen Ferguson, Ethel Hergenroeder, Mary Carcara, Catherine Mesonka, Margaret Phillips, Mathilda Weber, Dorothy Vuletich, Bernice Shanahan, Anna Mae I-lergenroeder, Elizabeth Bastetter, Mary Berry, Mary Mill, Olive Blazier, Bita Mack, Mary Nee, Marcella Krance, Loretta McBride, Eileen Davis. Another feature sponsored by the Juniors was to present a Lenten Play, "A Ftobe for The King" and give the proceeds to the missions. For the past three years our Handmaids of the Blessed Sacrament have seen to it that every day one of their members spends an hour with their Eucharistic Friend. LE CEBCLE DE LA JEANNE D'ABC The members of this French club have profited much during the past year by the interest- ing programs presented at their bi-weekly socials. French songs, plays, and dialogues com- prised an enjoyable schedule which was supplemented by a forum which discussed the French civilization, authors, and art. l- COMMERCIAL CLUB The Seniors organized the Commercial Club to arouse interest in the use of good English and to become acquainted with practical business procedure. Under the direction of Mae Cox, the president, the rnemhers presented various programs on the third Friday of each month. These included a series of instructive plays, discussions on business technique, and a few minutes of entertainment.
