Brother Al Explains Society Of Mary Bill Brown Named To State Committee Bill Brown, BCHS senior and Thomas Rohlich, Edgewood high school, Madison, will represent The Wisconsin As- sociation of Catholic Secondary School Principals in a state- wide study of youthful driver problems. The project is being con- ducted by the Governor’s Committee on Children and Youth at the request of Gover- nor John Reynolds. The study committee will meet about every six weeks for a year to bring into better focus the problems of young drivers. The first meeting was held October 24, in the state office building, Madison. “Was that a gun?” “Some- one’s been shot!” Yes, it was a gun, but no one was shot. It was just Brother Albert Kuntemeier, O.S.M., getting the attention of guidance classes. As he talked and showed slides about the Society of Mary. “Brother Al”, a teacher at the University of Dayton, told students that Marianists are priests and brothers - dedicated to Mary in a special way. Their dedication is sealed by a vow and symbolized by a gold ring. Throu i their organization they bring souls to Christ through Mary. The Society of Mary is divided into three parts: Priests, teaching brothers and working brothers. The brothers wear regular business suits as their habits. This custom goes back to their founding, by William Joseph Chamidade in France in 1817 just after the French Revolution -- so that they could work among the people more freely. The Society of Mary has schools, missions and parishes all over the world to carry on their crusade. Senior Merits NMSQT Honor Senior James Boho has received a letter of commenda- tion for his high score on the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test given last spring. According to Mr. John Stalnaker, president of the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, semifinalists and commended students constitute only about 2% of the high school students in the United States. Jim’s NMSQT score and commendation will be valuable to him as a possible factor in obtaining college scholarship aid. Jim is a high honor student and president of the school’s National Honor society chapter. He is active in YCS, Press club. Student Council and sports. Preparation at Notre Dame university for a career in aeronautical engineering is Jim’s college plan.

Page 6 November, 1963 Seniors Sponsor Dance, Hootenanny by Tim Harrington Hay-Li-lee-Li-lee-Low! In case you are wondering, this is not a typographical error. These are the lyrics to a folk song which resounded through the gym (and probably the corridors) on Friday night, Oct. 11, when the senior class sponsored an all-school Hootenanny. By tapping the overflowing abundance of talent in their class, seniors were able to present such big names in folk singing as: Peter, Paul »d Mary (Steve Kapitanoff, A1 Muetz and Kris Freeman); Paul and Paula (Bill Knipp and Mary Jo Borley); and the Kingston Trio (Mike Hahn, John Aeschliroann and Gerald “Boomer” Nicholson). The program was highlighted by a finale during which the audience joined in community singing Besides the skits, there was dancing to the music of the BCHS dance band and to records. Those attending got into the spirit of the evening and seemed to be enjoying themselves. And being a senior, 1 must confess Hay-Li-lee-Li-lee-Low The evening was a smashing success Hay-Li-lee-Li-lee-Low! Band Members Promote Good Music, Appreciation “Whose BAND is this?” shouts Captain Jim Quick. “CRUSADERS!” holler the 40 members of the BCHS band who assemble four days a week for rehearsal. French Talk Marks Tuesdays by Liz Chamon “Boy Scout Pin?” “Nope. Just a fleur de lis!” Every Tuesday, French students wear the fleur de lis pin to show they are members of the French Club. Besides wearing the French symbol on this day, second and third year students are expected to speak only French, while the first year class is to attempt speaking as much as they have learned. Mr. Godin believes that the only way to learn a foreign language com- pletely, is to speak it. His reason for organizing “French Day” is to encourage his students to speak French among themselves. September 17, the first “French Day”, brought about confusion for many students. Linda Tower, who does not speak French, was spending her day trying to figure out what her friends were saying to her. A first year student. Pot Spano, kept rushing to her English-F rench dictionary to think of something to say next. Seniors Pot Coit and Mau- reen Griffin, spoke only French on their way to Janesville, that day. Since the first “French Day” students have progressed. Linda Tower is no longer con- fused when students speak in French to her, and, Pat Spano no longer needs her English- French dictionary to think of things to say. Some of the students agree that they are picking up many of the common French words that they will need if they ever get the chance to visit France. PAUL AND PAULA (Bill Knipp, right, and Mary Jo Borley) performed at the senior class Hootenanny Oct. 11. Here and There by Sue Choudoir October Girl of the Month sponsored by the Business and Professional Women’s club was Mary Lou Chamon. Students have welcomed back Sister Agnes Ann and Sister Hugoline after their stay in the hospital. They are sorry that Sister De Pazzi’s stay in the hospital has been such a long one and hope that she will soon be able to come back to BCHS. Many thanks to those who have been Substituting for absent teachers: to Mrs. Fen- rick, who generously helps out whenever and wherever she Belonging to the band has given them personal satis- faction and a greater appre- ciation of music, band members agree. is needed; to Mrs. Alexander, who has taken over one of Sister DePazzi’s English classes; to Mr. Melvin, who is teaching two world history classes; to Mrs. Clark, who substituted in a general bus- iness class and is now super- vising a study hall; and to all the regular teachers who took on extra duties temporarily. Though all the first year students are working hard, two of the very proficient students, Kathy Basmagy and Carol Rule, are working toward 50 warn certificates. They have already received certificates for 40 words a minute. The band is headed by Mr. Farina, former supervisor of Dakota, 111., Community Unit school. He is assisted by Mr. Simmons especially in the area of private lessons. Mr. Farina directs the band, drills in marching formations and gives music lessons, while Mr. Simmons works on embouchure - the correct placement of the mouthpiece of an instrument in the mouth. The band year is divided into three seasons: fall foot- ball, Christmastide and spring concert time. The last coin- cides with solo and band contest season. Aims of the band are the presentation of good music to the public and the development of the God-given talents of music students. Mr. Farina believes that although a band member may not be top-notch, he has accomplished some- thing wonderful if he has learned to express himself through music.
