Mother Cabrini High School - Shrine Yearbook (New York, NY)

The Shrine When the yearbook staff gathered for its first green meeting I doubt that you would have been able to find the bright smiles seen in this picture on the faces of the staff. For, you see, the staff , regardless of the fact that our classmates seemed to think us literarily inclined, did not feel quite up to the task it faced. In fact, it was the general consensus of opinion on that rather dark day that a Dickens, an Emerson, or at very least, a Tolstoy, would be a necessary recruit if the job were ever to be done. But just then, right in the middle of our sad meeting, a bright spot appeared! Someone opened one of the most beautiful of all past year books fwe refuse to say which for fear of jealous alum- nae seizing this book at a later datej. As we looked through the perfectly prepared pages, each of which managed to tell so clearly and so hu- manly of all our wonderful Cabrini days, we realized that impossible though it might now seem our yearbook was going to be as beautiful and as precious as we could possibly make it, with the incomparable help of the Holy Ghost and Mother Ursula. This we felt sure would have to be. For we had been challenged to place the spirit of our school and our classmates on paper. So, we closed the old yearbook and looked at each other, everyone had a very special gleam in her eye. Then the gleam turned into hard work. The entire staff, Meg Walsh, Nancy Madden, Pat Quigg, Carolyn Somma, Margaret Cassidy, and Carol Loftus, have spent many hours on this yearbook. The special vignette of each girl's life at Cabrini, the special writeups beneath the gen- eral pictures, the editorial, the dedication, all these had to be prepared. And what was infinitely worse, at the end everything had to be typed by the worst collection of one-finger typists ever gathered together. Though wefve worked long and hard, the yearbook may never come up to our farflung expectations for it. We hope however that it will satisfy all of our classmates' fondest dreams. vcr? if f-V' lla F T'+fs.. N lv ?1Pf:,,.', 'is ---1--2'
