The shadows of the Alexanders, the Shakespeares, the Lincolns forever walk with us and their lives co t ' f n inue to be a thallenge for the fuller life. But the efiicacy of the Christ Child as a Model endures only during that period we call adoles- cenceg that turbulent, critical phase when growing pains us. Then the youthful Christ's growth in wisdom d , age an grace becomes a beaconlight. The lessons learned during the monthly novenas and from our guest speakers supply us with varia- tions on this basic theme. Later in life as the blood cools and the head clears we will have more ins' 'h ' ' , ig, t into the teachings of the God-Man. And we will discover that those fundamental virtues learned from His Boyhood will have reaped for us a Christian maturity. The closing of the Marian Year.

,mw- ald l-Espeia Blue. dgtor-i nCC- e n-chief of th e Red Red and Blue The validity of a books theme is continually being tested by its components. Are the divisions natural or artificial? Are the pictures articulate expressions of the theme? Are they too direct, too oblique? Do the trivial and episodic have in them the latent quality of a theme? Are the activities represented as organic features of the theme? These were some of the problems that faced this year's staff as they traveled the labyrinthine ways that a year- book charts. Equipped with patience and imagination and fortified by a capacity for hard work, they drew unity out of confusiong hltering, rejejcting and adding wherever needed. Their book is essentially a camera chronicle of the year's activities. For them the Red and Bfue is a testa- ment of the mind and heart that vitalizes Bishop Bradley High School. If their picture does not fit your concept, may there be enough latitude in the book to add your own marginal notes. Sifting and sorting: D. L'Esperance, J. Mooney, R. Tremblay, R. Fortin, W.
