Structure Directs Students The Guiding Light of Bishop Dwenger (and its biggest Saint) is the principal, Rev. Edward J. Krason. When he isn ' t hard at work in his office, making announce- ments over the P. A., or patrolling the halls. Father Krason may be in conference with a teacher, holding a telephone interview, or perhaps just relaxing tensions in the lounge. Regardless of his role, Fr. Krason is always working towards an improve- ment in Dwenger or its students. The Dean of Girls, Sister Wilma, assists by making sure that early dismissal excuses are plausible — and that students with yel- low blouses and blue sweaters are duly penalized. The boys turn to Father Kline, Dean of Men, when they are in trouble. He always has a smile, good advice — and a tie for forgetful boys.

Faithful Awareness Is Goal of Religion Perhaps it is the most difficult subject to be taught— because it isn ' t crammed or memorized or outlined or passed out in mimeo- graphed form. Not really, however, for Christianity can ' t be graded on a 1 — 10 scale as all know. There is a slow, steady awakening of an idea and perhaps it will last. Fresh- men must be orientated into the religious atmosphere of high school and the teachers who han- dle this situation are Fr. John Gillig, Mr. Walsh and Mr. Miller. They teach many of the basic truths about the Church and bits and pieces of human psychology as well. The sophomores, under Sr. Chan- tal, Mr. Corbett and Mr. Miller, par- ticipated in rousing discussions on various aspects of the Sacra- ments. Fr. Kauffman presented to the juniors a comparison between self and others. Mr. Szymczak re- traced the history of religions and compared them. All classes were worthy efforts to make everything relevant, to dot the i ' s in Catho- lic Ed. Above: Attending one of the seasonal Masses on Ash Wednesday. Chris Creigh receives Holy Communion.
