Second Annual Spirit Day Once Again Successful Following a week delay due to inclement weather, the St. Bede Student Council held its second annual Spirit Day on Thursday, Sep- tember 17. The object of Spirit Day was to in- still spirit in students and to encourage friendship among students. After the completion of morning classes, pupils gathered in the gym for instructions re- garding the remainder of the day. Mr. Paul Ber- nabei then addressed the student body concerning the meaning of spirit. Led by Brother Philip and Bedan students, the student body sang several songs. Next was the Spirit Day Mass, held this year in the gym due to the threatening weather. Lunch was served on Tower Field. During the afternoon students could play such games as push ball, football, tug-of-war, and soft- ball. Competition was held among the four class- es, with the seniors totalling the greatest number of points, thereby winning this year’s Spirit Day Trophy. Even though the weather may have been gloomy, the student spirit was such that Spirit Day was again termed a success. Far Top: In a Spirit Day baseball game.

Former Bedan Students Return For Homecoming Held on November 15, Homecoming began on Saturday evening with the annual carcade through LaSalle, Peru, and Spring Valley. The pep rally followed, held at the site of the bonfire, south of the round barn. Students from St. Bede, Hall, and LP performed in this year’s variety show, directed by Father Placid. Saturday ac- tivities ended with the Glow, held by the men’s Club. Sunday, the Bruins trounced Peoria Spalding 60 to 6. Following was a roast beef dinner, spon- sored by the Mother’s Club. Homecoming fes- tivities concluded with a teen-age dance. Much work went into Homecoming ’70, but after the weekend ended, all effort seemed worthwhile.
