Our class is the smallest in many years but everyone wanted a yearbook, so we have published the 1945 Pleiades. We sincerely hope that the class of '46 will pre- serve the tradition of the Pleiades which was in- terrupted of necessity last year. So a small class leaves its mark of interest and industry. WILLIAM COMISKEY O We have all been agreeably surprised and pleased by the cooperation of the friends of the Pleiades who have joined the list of patrons and advertisers and helped so generously in publishing this book. We are grateful, too, for the cooper- ation of the students who have ordered books- the largest number in Pleiades history. With the help of our friends, a small staff has been able to finance a yearbook which at first seemed highly impractical during this time. PATRICK MoRRIssEY I A yearbook seems to be one of the most help- ful means of bringing back memories of the joys, no matter how simple, of school life. We think that the joys of school life at St. Bede are worth remembering, and believe, further, that this is reason enough for the effort of publishing a year- book. The staff is especially grateful to the Rev. Gerard Warnecke, O. S. B., for the sketches he has made for the first, dedication, and division pages. ' FATHER DAVIIJ Blu. Mgr. i page four
