RING CEREMQNY The night had at long last arrived. This was an occasion for a great deal of elation among the Juniors, for it marked another notch in our high school career. The significance of the Cabrini ring had been explained to us in detail, and we under- stood and deeply loved its meaning, The Sacred Heart of Christ, its rays illuminating the ocean of life and guiding the small crafts . . . How we loved those precious symbols and tried to apply them to ourselves! This year a red stone had taken the place of the brown one of previous years, but the rest of the ring was unchanged. Red and white ' M ---H--.-... , carnations added to the beauty and quiet sereiiity of our chapel. As we walked up the aisle, each one of us experienced a glorious feeling. Monsig- nor Fleming, Principal of Cardinal Hayes High School, emphasized what a great honor it is to receive the Cabrini ring. After he placed them upon our fingers, we could hardly avoid glancing atour rings. After the impressive ceremony came to a close, we realized more than ever before that now we were at the threshold of Senior Year. We would now have our beloved rings as a constant reminder of our wonderful years at Cabrini. ' ' ,vu- 'QP '1 40 ,fi

Our Senior Year has had the added surprise of seeing our Alma Mater enriched with a rare and precious collection. the gift of Mrs. Eugene Jablonski of New York City. In her travels throughout the world in the company of Dr. Jablonski, a geoligist of renown, Mrs. Jablonski acquired the valuable objects which are now on display in our school. In the Large Senior Room is an exhibit on Mexico. Holay! Fiesta time! The Senior Class of 1957 is privileged indeed. From their comfortable desks the girls can turn toward the left and gaze at the majestic Hudsong then they turn to the right and are transported vicariously to sunny, romantic Mexico. Paradoxical, you say? No, not when you have an exhibit that portrays almost every aspect of that neighboring land. Along the wall of our classroom are gay prints of smiling senoritas and somber eyed senors, colorful, intricately woven rugs, and straw Ffwifty , . :, f F tf'iw. :Q wins?
