There is no formal definition that will communicate the richness of this time or of this experience. We must review each year in all its complexity to arrive at an answer. The following pages represent a recorded attempt to present and preserve the incidents, activities, and achievements of our life at St. Bede Col- lege and Academy during 1958-59. Our commun- ity -- comprised of Benedictine religious, lay teachers, and four-year transients in search of an education -- is unique in its composition and atmosphere. During these years places have been im- portant. ln them we have found the moments and ideas of the past recorded in volumes. ln the laboratories and classrooms housed in these buildings we have experimented and studied. The atmosphere of the St. Bede Campus is one of natural beauty and historic signifi- cance. The School is situated in the heart of the lllinois Valley, a region shrouded by legend and hallowed by tradition. It is a place favor- able to the pursuit of both intellectual and so- cial endeavors -- to the development of the complete Christian man. llow well we remember the young and tender days when we as Freshmen traversed, for the first time, the beautiful St. Bede lane. We faced a new way of life, personified in the building destined to be- come the center of our daily activities. smug A .tr v' -.ff.f5,f ' ' ' 'F wi n T-MT 44- ,yo ,f-fff N NQ1f4-N ' A - '11 - , f , ,f fff. 111 , 'j'1 j Whvf, ,,,...- J- 1,Qg.l,I4i, A , F, ..41H .

V' ig wr ' it Campus LHe The following section of the yearbook depicts the numerous and varied events and activities that took place on campus during the year. They range from the gala festivities of homecoming to a secluded moment in the quiet of the chapel. Considered as a whole, they compose the life ofa student at St. Bede. As you glance through these pages you will no doubt come to some understanding of what St. Bede Includes Many life means to the student. To say that he enters a boy and leaves a man would be a gross oversimpli- fication. No one has devised an instant-mix for manhood. It is, rather, in the daily exercise of spirit, mind and body that one will find and develop the ingredients to maturity. This, then, is the objec- tive of St. Bede campus life.

St. Bede boys, new and old, are waiting to register After the first day, Freshmen, Sophomores, juniors and Seniors participate alike and unsegregated in all the academic, spiritual and social activities of the Bedan life. The academic program is outlined by director of studies, Father Dunstan. Daily life at St. Bede begins with a rising bell at 6:30 AM., followed by Mass at 7:00 and breakfast at 7:30. Morning classes begin at 8:25 and last until noon. Dinner, recreation and a study period take up the students' life between noon and l:30 after which there are two more class periods in the aftemoon. At 3:15 day students depart for home and resident students partici- pate in recreation until 5:00. Study hall comes at 5:30 at which time students may study, go to the library, write letters and read magazines. At 6:00 dinner is served after which the students have recreation until 7:15, and thence to study once again. The daily routine is called to a halt when the students retire for the night, only to awaken the next day to the clang- ing of bells. .-3.

Here Patrick Mullen is re- ceiving his final instructions from Father Theodore before he starts school. Catching the conversation is Pat's mother, Mrs. Robert Mullen. Very appropriately on the first day of school Father Marion celebrated a Mass of the Holy Ghost. This gave the students a good spiritual start for the year. X ?'fX Beautiful Father Bemard is shown here starting the Home- coming bonfire. Many old alumni gathered at Homecoming to recall old times. The two alumni talking here are joseph Cullen and Dr. Ronald Kruskas. After the game many hungry fans jammed into the refectory for the Ham Supper sponsored by the Mothers' Club. To conclude the days excitement, a dance was sponsored by the seniors- Autumn Day Brings Except for the varsity eleven's loss to Nlarmion, the 1958 St. Bede Homecoming, held on Oc- tober l9, was a big success. About 5,000 people, consisting of many alumni, relatives of students, friends of St. Bede, football fans and others, crowded the campus most of the beauti- ful autumn day to participate in the various events on the pro- gram. The Homecoming Day program included a varsity and frosh- soph football game against Nlarmion Nlilitary Academy of Aurorag an alumni get-together after the game in the gymnasium, where the alumni, their families and members of the faculty gath- eredg a benefit llam Supper, sponsored by the St. Bede Nlothers' Club, and a dance sponsored by the academy seniors.

To the right Father Nlarion, student chaplain, points to the needy mission fields that need financial help. Around Father Marion are Tom Quinn, jim Duncan and Dominic Verona, chairmen of the bazaar Students of St. Bede contributed almost 3700 to the missions through the medium of the third annual Nlission Bazaar held on Jan- uary 11th in the Abbot Vincent Gymnasium. It gave all the students an opportunity to take an active part in the missionary activity of the Church and have some fun in doing so. The bazaar had many things to offer. Roulette wheels, blackjack, penny pitch, fish pond, food, and other games of chance were in abundance, but probably the funniest of all was the dart-throwingbooth of the Nlinims. At this booth, one could throw darts at three large caricatures of Fathers Peter, Ralph and Henry. The object of the game was to throw darts at the balloons attached to the caricatures. Pictured at the left is a drawing sup- posedly representing Father Peter. Attaching the balloons in the picture is Jim Budreau one of the caretakers of the Minims' booth. Father Peter's caricature received muchbusi- ness due to his popularity and the Golden Jackass. Father Peter, many times in his teaching career, presented his most bril- liant student with this remembranceg but this year a freshman, Mike Curtin, struck back and beat him to the draw by presenting him with the model at the top left.

Bede And Famous Troupe And Well-Known Speaker Appear Internationally famous Silvertones, Gladyse Kinchen, pianistg Garfield Henry, tenorg Marie Young, sopranog and Herman Hermmitt, baritoneg appeared here for the sixth time. St. Bede students and faculty were ex- tremely fortunate on Febmary 16th to hear the internationally famous musical group, Silver- tones, give their rendition of many favorite songs. This troupe, under the direction of Mr. Garfield Henry, has appeared here many times previously. This year's program consisted of much variety for it ranged from heavy classical music by Mozart, Schubert and Strauss to spirituals and modern excerpts from Broadway musicals such as Porgy and Bess. Many of these songs are Mr. Henry's own arrangements while the rest were from the original composers. On February 2, the student body of St. Bede were highly honored by a talk given by the Rev. Placid Jordan, O.S.B., a Benedictine monk from Beuron Abbey in Germany. Father Placid, before being converted and ordained, was a famous news commentator and analyst for NBC under the name of Max jordan. Even now Father Placid has knowledge of world affairs that would match many men associated with this field. Father Placid's speech dwelt on the basic problems of the world today, over population and Communism. He explained to the students their responsibility to set an example of what the United States and freedom really was. 23 , f .., 43 s ful.. : G, ff y K pk M f ,,11 g1e1w1aQv, mar ff,' f. fk :'l I X 'a fi . ... ?f , ,1 , W xiii g f' as Eva .5 f5 . 4f 2' f ,K . l X 5-ffff'! 1 1 vw sf?

Some of the projects were entrusted to pro- fessionals, as seen on this pageg others were executed by the members of the monastic community and the maintenance staff on the opposite page. These projects consisted of replaster- ing classrooms and the students' chapelg painting study halls and classroomsg and repairing the stadium. ln the second floor washroom, the old floor was completely torn out, and a new cement floor laid covered with terrazzo.

Within him is the sum of four years of vigorous leaming. llis mind has been nourished by a diet of constant usage. Only his individual capa- bilities and traits have limited his intel- lectual growth. Regardless of his academic rank, he has acquired an abiding appreci- ation of knowledge and its fruits. And growth in knowledge has been accompanied, or even surpassed, by an enrichment of character. I Q Linked with his mentaland spiritual progress has been a steady physical maturation. In short, he is well advanced in the exchange of an insecurity bom of doubt for an as- surance bred from experience and learning. Whether he decides to find his place in life immediately or to continue his education at some college, he will always retain in his heart an honored place for these formative years. But it would be foolish, indeed, to de- scribe the senior in retrospective. He seeks not to recall the past but to live the future. Life lies before him as a fertile Held. He has a crop to sow and a harvest to reap. Opportunity calls. Success awaitsl Thus the high school senior stands at the cross- roads of life. lle is at once a boy with fond memories of the past and a man with bright hopes of the future. ln October, Left to Right, James Duncan, Thomas Kapacinskas and Thomas Quinn were elected vice-president, president, and secretary-treasurer, respectively. 97 S CHARLES A.

Now comes the time to recall the events of our Senior graduating class. Although much of our time was taken up by scholastic endeavors, we still found time and spirit enough to carry on a full schedule of athletic and social activities. At the head of the athletic list was the intramural program: baseball and football in early and late fallg basketball and volleyball during the winter months, baseball in the commencing spring sea- son. But the real contribution of the department lay in the relentless backing of the various var- sity teams throughout the year. The Senior board- ers were leaders with their moral support, not only on the home floor, but also at distant compe- tition where it was needed the most. Our social activities included department mixers, blowouts and steak fries scattered throughout the academic year. At the two dances we sponsored, A Movin' Evening and at homecoming, we established a new trend by providing music by the Rockin' R's. Gliding towards the final of four years of Bedan life, we once again combined our noted humorous skills to make Senior day, in Chicago, one to be remembered for many years. As would be expect- ed, the Senior Prom held the place of honor in this year of fun and accompanying worries. Then suddenly from amidst the anxious and proud friends and relatives came the long procession of men to receive their diplomas. The year was ended. For Graduation And Future GEORGE W.

Looking at the life of the college seminarians, one could see the themes of prayer, work and play dominant through- out the year. The will of God was out- lined by Father Marion, the shepherd of the fourth floor. The seminarians' out- door duties included keeping Father Victor's park in shape and building a second bridge over the creek to make possible a new footpath to the college grounds. The young men also helped direct parking cars and sold tickets at the athletic events. Student sacristans were Kenneth Marchulones and Robert Barger. Lee Marliere, Conde Canedy, Robert Calvetti, Ronald Lievens and Daniel Siebert as- sisted Father John in the library. Promi- nent among social events were programs by the Glee Club and the Thursday night entertainment sessions staged succes- sively by the members of the different rooms on the floor. Organized intramurals, a Saturday afternoon bowling league with the second floor college men, occasional steak fries and birthday parties helped to lighten the load of studies. JOHN T.

Through the untiring efforts of James Murphy, junior, many of the pictures in the annual were made possible by his on the spot coverage of events with the camera. Staff writers, with a flare for writing, were hard to get, but these three students above answered the call. Thomas Funk, sophomore, provided the athletic pages with many facts while seniors, james Duncan and Charles Balestri, provided the script for the rest of the volume. The staff of the VIA BAEDA is composed entirely of academy students. All have come to know what St. Bede life is and means. This yearbook, then, is an attempt by them to portray the many facts of Bedan life. The job they undertook was not merely to report a year of activi- ties, but to capture and re-enact it for the reader. With pictures and words they attempt to bring to life the uncertainty of a fresh- man, the confidence of a senior, the drama of a football game, the solemnity of a pontifical Mass. Theirs is not an easy task, this depicting of a multi-dimen- sionalworld on atwo dimensional page. Past staffs have earned national honors for their achieve- ments. The current staff has strived not only to maintain this high tradition, but to add to it and in some way to the school which it represents. Long and tiring hours were expended by James Miller, Terrance Short and Keith Clotzbach, the layout men and proofreaders. Al- though inexperienced, these underclassmen did much to enhance the value of the book. 'bw-M ,af Mothers' Club Is An Integrate Comprised mainly of mothers of the ,students in the local area, the St. Bede Mothers' Club has for its aim the furthering of the process of Catholic education as carried on in the Benedictine tradition at St. Bede. One of the ways in which the Club fosters the educational system ofthe Benedictine Fathers consists in establishing contact through membership in the Club with the faculty. Through these contacts the mothers are enabled to learn many facts, which aid ? Activities of the Mothers' Club of St. Bede College and Academy during the 1958-59 school year were directed by these four ladies. They are: Mrs. K. Dougherty, presidentg Mrs. B. Gambiani, treasurerg Mrs. D. Chonowski, vice-presi- dentg and Mrs. D. Flaherty, secretary. them in maintaining their proper places in the guidance and edu- cation of their sons. ln addition to the monthly meetings, the Club sponsors other activities which afford the parents of the students to become better acquainted with the faculty and with one another. Among these activities are an Open House, Homecoming Supper, Fathers' Night, Bake Sale, Christmas Party, Recollection Day and Card Party. ln mid-February the annual Fathers' Guest Night was held, and here Father Theodore, faculty moderator of the Mothers' Club, smiles approval of the heaping plate of food Mr. Ralph Albani has taken for his consumption. .X n ,' An eye witness account of Operation Deep Freeze was given to the fathers and mothers present for the Fathers' Guest Night by Robert Barger, junior ege sophomore. Part OF The Bedan Way Of Life One of the highlights of Home- coming Day at St. Bede was the Benefit Supper which the St. Bede Mothers' Club has spon- sored annually since 1952.

Back Row: Ronald Axium, Laurence Wiley, Michael Nagle. 128 This year the Clee Club was organized as usual by Father Victor. From the college and high school he drew twenty-seven young men who were interested in group singing and were willing to give time and effort to form a good Glee Club. After months of practice, they began to make themselves heard. At first the Clee Club sang for assem- bliesg then around Christmas demands for the choristers were made from sources outside the school. Appear- ances were made before the St. ,Ioseph's Mothers' Club in Peru and the St. Bede Mothers' Club.

We Need More And Better Organizations In its second year as a club of St. Bede the New Dawn Society, under the direction of Father Raymond, went farther in trying to acquaint the students with Lithuanian heritage. On February 15th in the Abbot Vincent Gymnasium, they presented the Satellite Day pro- gram which brought to the students a guest speaker, Mr. J. K. Savickus of Chicago, a former Lithuanian professor. The speaker centered his talk around Lithuanian independence. At the right, students, Thomas Kapacinskas and Martin Santoski, had an informal dis- cussion with Mr. Savickus after his talk. Patrick Collins here uses a selection from Beethoven to get across a point in understanding good music. Although small in number - the St. Bede Band was big in quality and volume. Under the direction of Mr. Leonard Bertrand, the band gave their Sole performance at home- coming. Besides this perform- .vxx ance the group spent many hours of practice, as seen on the right, in the band room during the noon hour. 130 Every Saturday morning in the basement of the school there can be heard music from the great composers, Beethoven, Tschaikowsky and many more leaking through the doors of the chemistry laboratory. At first there was some speculation as to what was going on, but later it was disclosed that a music appreciation course, under the direction of Patrick Collins, college seminarian, was being pre- sented to those interested. Besides listening to these masterpieces, Mr. Collins, an accomplished musician, explained some basic rudiments of music to the club. Seniors Distinguish Themselves By Scholarship For any student to receive Honor Roll Q f ' ' rating it is necessary for him to maintain a B average when the semester grades are issued. Sixty-one students merited this distinction of being singled out for scholastic endeavors during the past year. 7 Seniors, Steven Carroll and Francis Speltz distinguished themselves by their high scores on two college aptitude tests used in the National Merit Scholarship competition. Out of 478,000 students tested there are 10,000 finalists in which our two seniors are included.There will be lhlerit Scholarships awarded to 700 finalists.

Q! K A 1 Many Veterans Return Athletic Director, Father Kevin with Coaches Harold Gaffney, Paul Morris and James Troglio review the various schedules. To Under the guidance of Father Kevin, our newly appointed Athletic Director the sports program at St. Bede is well co-ordinated. 'Coach Morris delights crowds on the football field and also tutors the tennis team. Coach Gaffney presides over the basket- ball court and the baseball diamond and supplies us with winning teams in these two major phases of athletics. Coach Troglio instructs members of the recently organized track team and is mentor for the sophomores in football and basketball. Veteran hurler, Al Corgal, takes his pre-game warmups while other Bedan mounds- men, Clarence Davis, Dick Peoplis, Ray Newman, and jerry Baker look on. Powerfully swinging Don Heinzel swings again, smashing a double and putting a man on second and third. Heinzel's powerful bat hit to the tune of .389 and often produced the long one to clear the bases. Brighten Baseball Prospects OF Francis Spellz crosses homeplate for the first of six runs in the second game of a doubleheader with Depue. This season the St. Bede varsity nine staged their worst season in the past few years. Under Harold Gaffney the team won eleven, lost ten, and tied one. This record, however, was not too bad, since there were no regulars from the previous season returning this year. In the Illinois Valley Conference the team did very well, coming in second among strong teams such as Streator, LaSalle-Peru and Hall. ln the overall season the diamond men faced DePue six times, beating them in four out of the six.Streator was victorious in two of three games and in one we managed a tie. Against Hall we won two and lost only one, but Toluca took three out of four from us. Our only clean sweep of the season was over Magnolia, there we took two out of two contests. We split with LaSalle-Peru, winning two and losing two. One of these losses came in the district tournament. Leading the team in the hitting depart- ment was D. Heinzel with a terrific .389, followed byj. Loftus with .318. A. Gorgal racked up a .310 average and R. Eller- brock .300 even. D. Heinzel also led the team in hits, while A. Gorgal had the most runs batted in. 1959 In the pitching department D. Wyzgowski recorded the highest average, with a 4-2-1 record, followed by A. Gorgal with a 6-6 mark and R. Peoplis with a 1-3 slate. Outstanding players in every respect were outfielders J. Loftus, D. Heinzel, R. Marshall and T. Denbyg infielders R. Levan, R. Ellerbrock, P. Harding and A. Gorgalg catcher F. Gregorichg and pitchers A. Gorgal, R. Peoplis and D. Wyzgowski. Coach Gaffney thought this was his worst sea- son here so far, but since he lost only five seniors after the season, he is looking forward to better times ahead.

Competition In Track This year the St. Bede track team, in its first season of competition, was under the di- rection of Coach James Troglio. The Bedans participated in five meets and placed low in each one, but they did as well as could be expected of a newly organized group. The team made a good record in the running events but, as a result of lack of facilities, they did poorly in field events. Leading scorer for the runners was Bill Pelkey, who ran the 100 yard dash and 220. The Bedan relay team consisted of ,lim Deitz, Larry Krzywanos, Jim Stack and jim Watson. Leading scorers in the field events were Vince Morreale and Reynold Drasler. Coach Troglio was not discouraged with the season, for many of the boys gained valuable experience, which will be a great help for the 1959 season. You have to have plenty of wind in this sport. William Pelkey, on the far right, best of our sprinters, shows how to do a good job with ease. 4 james Duncan in a skillful display of his talents returns a shot in a singles match. And Te n n i s St. Bede's varsity tennis squad of 1958 had a record of only one win against seven defeats. The boys, under Coach Paul Morris, split with Marseilles, winning their sole match of the season. The remaining defeats were two apiece to LaSalle-Peru, Ottawa and Streator. The squad was outclassed in almost every match but always played as hard as possi- ble. 1959 hopes are high since a good share of the letter winners return to the court in the spring. Opponents of the coming year will note a vast improved St. Bede team. Nucleus of 1959 team included: ffrontj John Robertson, Michael Wagner, Robert Ortmang fstandingj William Krause and james Duncan with Coach Morris in the middle.

Realizing this, co- Z' J r , A , - Bruin Gridders Experience A Disappointing eason Throughout the 1958 football season the St. Bede Bruins compiled a rather dismal record of only three wins against six defeats. The hard working Bruins started the season off on the right foot by beating Mendota on our own field, but then in the next assignment they got snowed under by LaSalle-Peru. This sound defeat did not discourage the team, for they came right back to beat Limestone. The eleven then took to the road and were defeated twice in a rowg first by North Chicago, then in a close game, by Marquette. Returning to our home field the team was defeated by Marmion in the annual homecoming game. On the road again, they handed St. Thomas a crushing defeat in the best game of the season. Streator then came and de- feated us in our last home game and Hall handed us a shutout in the season's final game. 1 1 Q Although the season was not one which could be called successful, Coach Paul Morris was thoroughly satisfied that the team always gave everything they had for the cause of our school. The season's mark might have improved tremendously if it hadn't been for a number of players proclaimed ineligible when the grades came out. Who says we don't have that fighting spirit the crowd shouts as the traditional homecoming game gets underway Although often the crowds were smaller, they could be compared to this one in spirit and enthusiasm. 147 Successful And Winning eason SOPHOMOR E FOOTBALL SQUAD Row One J D1etz, C Davxs, T Zwxca, M Fahey, Pattarozzl, F Fell R Cust T Shank C Ton'1, a r d 1 n g W Pelkey R H a n l e y T Cou Suhadolmk P Yancey M Walker J Murray Rosslter J Nlezer Row Two D McFadden, Feeney Manager P McCue Back Row F Zmtak N1 e 1 s m e r E Welgat W Bruke C Ver one Krystosek F' L a s s ar d J Haml1n J M1ller A nd erson D Causa D Yuvan R Hopklns, Stelnz K Olson T Komtzer J Tomaseskx O Rellly R F'1sher Row Three Coach Trogho Albam H Mente F Green J Loebach John O'Reilly sweeps around right end far Timothy Could brings down his man in the ahead of his Mendota pursuers for bonus yardage. hard fought Streator game. 148 Recorded By Sophomore Gridders Sophomores of St. Bede this year showed a remarkable improvement over last year's rather disappointing record of 1-4-1 by compiling an encouraging record of 7-2. Under the fine coaching of James Troglio the Bedans won over Mendota, St. Thomas, Marmion, Marquette, Hall and Streator by very good margins and lost only to LaSalle-Peru and North Chicago in reasonably close games. Coach Troglio was pleased with this hard working squad, and he expects even more from them in the future, when they will be after greater victories. Standouts in his squad were: D. Causa, J. Murray and J. Neizer, at end, M. Fahey and M. Rossiter, at tackleg A. Anderson, T. Gould and H. Hopkins, at guards, and T. Zwica, at center. The fast back- field consisted of J. Deitz, B. Pelkey, C.

Ken was the playmaker of the team. Controlling the ball superbly, he had a nack for getting the ball to the right man at the right time. Whent necessary, he swished one to adequately do his part in the scoring end of the game. After a slow start at the beginning of the season, the Bruins shaped into the kind of ball team that they were meant to be. With Coach Harold Gaffney at the helm, the boys lost their first four encounters against Princeton, Ottawa, Streator and Hall before they got on their feet to whip Marquette and Wenona. Following the Wenona win the Bruins lost to Mendota and defeated Depue before entering the Morris Holi- day Tournament. Ottawa tripped the Bedans in the first game of the tourney and Marseilles took over in the consolation game. This seemed to be the turning point in the season, for following this the Bruins won six out of the next seven games, over Marseilles, Earlville, Depue, Mendota, Hall and, in the Peoria Diocesan Tournament, Trinity. The only loss during this span of games came to the Bruins by LaSalle- Peru. Spalding defeated the Bruins in the quarter- finals of the Diocesan Tournament, while the other defeats were administered by Streator, Ottawa and LaSalle-Peru. To round out the regular season's record to 12- 12 the Bruins won over Marquette, Henry and Mar- seilles before tournament time. In the State Regional Tournament, held this year at St. Bede, the cagers won the first game against Mendota in probably their best tilt of the season, but LaSalle-Peru ended the Bedan hopes by taking them for the third time. For the largest part of the season the Bruins' starting lineup consisted of: Al Gorgal, Tom Plikuhn, Chuck Quilty, Kenny Hughes and either Gerry Baker or Gene Wisgowski. Although these boys saw most of the action, the strong bench strength ofTim Denby, ,Iohn Ficek, Tom Quinn and Jim O'Connell also saw some action and worked as hard as possible in every practice session. The leading scorer for the Bruins was Al Gorgal, who canned 320 points for a season's total. What made this so outstanding was the fact that he only played twenty-one of the twenty-six contests. Behind Gorgal in the points department was Chuck Quilty, with 297, Kenny Hughes, with 205, Tom Plikuhn, with 185g Gene Wisgowski, with 121 and Gerry Baker, with 113. Although the Bruins are going to lose seniors, Al Gorgal, Kenny Hughes and Tom Plikuhn, they will have Chuck Quilty, Gene Wisgowski, Gerry Baker, Tim Denby and ,Iohn Ficek returning for the 1959- 1960 season. The foregoing nucleus will have added to it an up and' coming junior contingent which com- pleted a successful sophomore schedule. While Junior Varsity Win 4-Lose 3 St. Bede - 53 St. Bede - 33 St. Bede - 54 St. Bede - 49 St. Bede - 78 St. Bede - 38 , St. Bede - 44 For the first time in a period of years a junior Varsity team was formed and played seven games. In this game with Princeton, Gene Wisgowski i3l and Jerry Baker i55l cover the boards well for the Bedans. JUNIOR VARSITY RECORD Toluca Princ e ton Marquette Prin ceton Toluca Marquette Mendota St. Bede was fortunate in having a good bench as well as a fighting first string. Coach Gaffney often chose his starting five from these six. Top Row: Ken Hughes, Chuck Quilty, Gene Wisgowski. Bottom Row: Tom Plikuhn, Gerry Baker, Al Gorgal. 153 Height Kept Bruins In Many Games Straining for the ball in enemy territory, the rebound trio of Gerry Baker i31l, Tom Plikuhn C525 and Al Gorgal Q34-J has the situation well in hand. For once St. Bede was blessed with some height and used it to fullest advantage. . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede . Bede .

Sophomore Emerging with an enviable record of sixteen wins and only four losses, the St. Bede Cubs again provided the bright spot in the basketball picture. It looked as if they would breeze through the season undefeated, until l,aSalle-Peru provided their first defeat. The other three defeats were handed to the Cubs by Streator, Marseilles and again by LaSalle-Peru. Three of these four were in games away, and the final defeat of the season occurred at home. Victo- ries for the cagers were won twice over llall, hlarquette, Ottawa, Mendota and Depue, and once over Princeton, Streator, Vlienona, Marseilles, hlarlville and Henry. The only team that made a clean sweep over the 6'Cubs was LaSalle-Peru, the other losses were avenged by victories on our home court. Coach James Troglio's start- ing five consisted of lioger llanley, Paul Harding, William Pelkey, John Maguire and Donald Causa. Also starting in a few contests was Clarence Davis. A contributing factor in the success Basketball Team-Win 16, Lose 4 of the squad was found in the team's bench strength. Able re- placements at any time were james Deitz, Nlichael Hossiter, Francis Albani, james Dzik and Robert Koster.Not only did these boys lend an able hand in the games, but also they helped im- prove the starting five by their conscientious work at practice. The end of the season found Roger llanley leading the team in the scoring department, with a fine total of 235 points. Follow- ing llanley were Paul llarding, with 178 points, Donald Causa with 161 points, john Maguire, a newcomer on the squad, with 154 points, and William Pelkey, with 105 points. Although scoring was the strong point of the squad, lack of height was surely their main obstacle in achieving a perfect record. Since the boys are only sophomores, a year's growth may make a tremendous difference in their chances for their years of varsity competi- tion. Whatever tomorrow will bring, however, you can be sure that they will be a team to be watched in the future. 3,4 Shifty B111 Pelkey sneaks through Princeton's defense to score two more points.

Every student who has attended St. Bede knows well the meaning of the word intra- murals.', These games are a daily function of both day students and boarders. The day students have their daily schedule every noon, right after lunch, while the boarders' schedule differs according to the season. ln the fall, intramurals start off with softball, followed immediately by football, then soccer. When the weather no longer permits outdoor sports the scene moves to the gymnasium for the winter activities of basketball and volleyball. When the last sign of winter disappears, the scene is again moved to the softball diamond. Besides these major team sports, intramurals also consists of activities such as ping pong, shuffleboard, handball and even horseshoes. Thank You, Advertisers And Patrons Contained in the following pages are the names and the firms who have financially made this yearbook possible. If they be advertisers, we thank them for the unselfish interest they show towards high school education, and for St. Bede in particular, by helping to defray the cost of our annual.
