At Mass we are offered to the Father with Christ. On the paten we place our joys--into the chalice we drop the actions of our day. Christ walks hand in hand with us to class. For indeed our day will always be . . . A MASS! Long before we walked into the doors of Notre Dame High School we were taught the benefits of this unbloody sacrifice. As small children we were ushbred to church with the admonition to talk to jesus quietly. Very early in life we became a part of the family Sun- day Mass. It is in recognition to the two most wonderful people in every girl's life-the mom and the dad who first taught us the values of the Mass-to our parents, that we dedicate this yearbook, the Memories of 1958. I will go unto the altar of God unto God The Lawrence Huelsings typify the happiness of a First Communion Day. For the Huelsings the joy is a double one-for their twins, Darrell and Darlene have just received Our Lord for the first time. Uniting in their joy are Rose, a junior at Notre Dame, Lawrence Jr., Ronnie, Mrs. Huelsing, Darlene, Mr. Huelsing, Darrell, Gregory, Barbara an N.D. sophomore, and Michael. man., ypw' Ji- mu-up f 4' . if O 2 f 1 N LJ -P wg' 3 4? 1535 l x CJUR FACULTY Along the stepladder of life that climbs Heavenward there are always those who make the ascent easier. Among these are the women who run God's finishing school of the spiritual life. Kindness and htunility are their outstanding virtues. Their patience and endurance are without end. Their assistance is willingly given. Their advice guides our ways. These happy, devoted doubles of Our Lady are our School Sisters of Notre Dame. SISTER FRANCES English, Speech SISTER M.

SENIORS The priest offers the paten to God. We are that offering. Our works, our trials, out joys, our day, and our lives are on that paten. Horoscoping ahead, Notre Dame seniors wonder just what the future holds for them-religious, career woman, or mother? We, the seniors of 1958, as the first class to have the privilege of being able to attend daily Mass in the chapel for a complete school year know the profits of Mass as the center of each day. In years to come Wherever we will be-a different state, a different country, a different conti- nent, the Mass will always serve as a common bond-a union with Christ at the altar. For indeed our lives will always be . . . A MASS! That N.D. moment-Graduation Day! Seniors Sue Wessels, Jeannine Dill, and Joyce Leicht exchange mixed feelings of the joy of graduation and the sorrow of leaving Notre Dame. Rf .-,F . an ' 'avi 1. 1 .., A.

SPORTS ACTIVITIES Usually the first acquaintance an eighth grader has with the possible high school of her choice is an entrance examination. This is not true at Notre Dame. Early in the year eighth graders are invited to attend a play day at which games and relays of all kinds are played. N.D. girls conduct tours through the school and at noon play exhibition volleyball games for the visitors. Play days are held on two Saturdays. The chairman of this year's play day was Pat Dirkers, under the guidance of Mrs. Condit, of course. The picture at the left shows Pat displaying an N.D. pennant that each member of the winning team will re- ceive. The teams were captained by N.D. juniors, Karen Bartnett and Diana Stock, winning team captains, are standing next to Pat.

Witliin these doors there are many happy, unforgettable moments- moments employed in planning for the fall festival and passed in decorating for dances and partiesg moments used in pre- paring for Mary Day and consumed in practicing for the operettag and many moments spent in consolation before, the Tabernacle. Before beginning this last year let's glance hack to the climax of our junior Year- the Prom. PRCDVIDES HEAVENLY ATMOSPHERE How can we ever forget the prom? The school hall was changed into a fantasy starland with lights twinkling on and off and stars dancing here and there in the l3.lCliLLQllJLllkl. Handsome fellows and beautiful girls danced and laughed and just enjoyed themselves, The highlight of the evening was reached when following fan- fare, the spectators' curiosity was satisfied by the announcement of the queen and her court. liven though the prom was the juniors' final tribute to the seniors, the hours of planning, work, and fun that made this night possible somehow made it our prom. The big moment! Josie Folk crowns Arlene Sonntag. Queen of the l957 Prom, Stairway to the Stars. Arlene's escort was Marion Menze. ii This marked the end of a perfect evening in the true N. D. way. Boys and girls blended their voices in thanks to Our Lady with Mother Beloved. ...mnig Happy? Certainly. The smiles are just a part of the hap- piness of the eager crowd awaiting the announcement of the court. With stars in their eyes and a lilt in their steps happy Promsters leave - making Stairway to the Stars an- other unforgettable memory. SENIORS WELCOME LITTLE SISTERS In dignity and sophistication the freshies were initiated. Instead of the usual torturing initiation, this year we gave a welcome party for our little sisters. Candy corsages, bibs, green bows, and buttons pre- dominated the scenery of the after- noon. Spectators Susan Callahan, Roseann George, Rosie Borg- wald, Rose Dunn, Mary Mueller, and Mary Ann Bowers display their merri- ment of the festivity. HELLO! IT'S GRAND TO BE BAC We are ready for another year. For some of us it is our first and for the less fortunate of us it is our last. Before we go through these doors we pause to think of our future days. What do we want from this year? What will we get? We will meet many new friends, we will encounter many different problems, but most of all we will get better acquainted with ourselves. In conclusion we make the solemn promise to make this school year the most wonderful of all! Senior Judy Sprengnether congratulates classr Peggy Phelan on the honor of becoming Co-Pre of the St. Louis High School Sodality Union du the summer. Mary Lou Rudloff, Barb Daly, K: Nash, Sue Wessels, and Jeannine Dill acknowlc their congratulations also.

The seniors and juniors chose to bring joy into the lives of the elderly ones at old folks' homes. The sophs entertained the Sisters at the Villa, and the freshies gathered and packed clothing for the poor at a Notre Dame Mission in Arizona. In a further spirit of giving the Sodaliry sewed and mended clothing for the mission in Honduras instead of having their annual Christmas party.

Retreat - a N.D. girl's time to get better :quainted with God. This year the student ody enjoyed the benefits of a retreat early in me school year. In March the seniors had the :lded privilege of having a closed retreat. Sen- Jrs vfl-fi took advantage of the opportunity ar extra graces literally moved to school for he weekend. Rev. L. M. Chiuminata, SJ. .irecror of the White House conducted the etreat. Here Genevieve Eiler thinks things nut during retreat. Graduation for these fifteen Senior Aspirants is a double climax. High school days and Aspiranture days have come to a close. Unlike most of the other seniors, however, the end doesn't have that final ring to it for they will be back August 28th decked in the black dress and cape of an S.S.N.D. Candidate. Senior Aspirants are: First Row: Avis Houston, Barbara Boedeker, Diana McDevitt, Carol Nishke, Pat Bauer. Second Row: Beverly Haberberger, Arline Schmucke, Marty Fine, Mary Sickmann, Sandy Hacker. Third Row: Pat Bradley, Lydia Farias, Clara Shea, Jackie Benskin, Kay Winters. And now we come to the end of the gay, happy events that have passed Within These Doors. For eighty-five of us Graduation bells have rung, but in memory we will re-live the peaceful joys of retreat, Rosary Day and Mary Day, the thrill of ring day and prom night, the enchantment of Desert Song, and even the intel- lectual energy afforded by the mountain of books we carried home each day.
