Pete Breiner, Throughout his High school career he has always shown the deepest inter- est in school activities and for loyalty, well- Pete tops 'em all. Scholarship to Regis Col- lege Aldo Vecchia, His sincere earnestness to- ward his studies has made him outstanding, and to say the least he is held in the highest es- teem by all his fellow-students. Louis Schlenz, Louie's wit has made him distinguished. 'He always has a smart saying to :Take his classmates laugh. Louie we salute you Robert Hoffman, Bob was outstanding not only as a student and an athlete, but he was also willing to participate in all activities large or small. An all around Paduan, eh? Scholarship to Marquette University. Howard Killerlain, We all know Howard for his keen sense of humor and quiet dispo- sition. He has a very pleasant personality and is liked by all the students. He is also one of the best scholars. joint Scholarship to any Colorado College. Bill Haverland, When the school needs someone to pep it up, 'tis Bill they call on. 1With his numerous tunes and his great abil- ity to whistle, he will never be forgotten. Jack Keenan, jack's dependability is un- excelled when it comes to extra-curricular af- fairs. His friendly personality is hailed by all who know him. Clarence Mentgen, Better known as Snooks, was intensely interested in all school activities. His cheerful disposition makes him the best-loved student and everyone is proud to call him Pal . Frances Flaherty, Throughout her high school career she has shown willingness to co- operate in all school activities. Her humor and wit will be sorely missed. Mildred Wemsman, Although it was her first year at St. Anthony's, she has won the hearts of all the students. Diligent in work and leiitlgusiastic in play, she's been a credit to S. A. ,Germane Klausner, Wi-th her pleasing per- sonality and her readiness to serve , Ger- mane has merited the respect of many. Her ac- tivities in the Sodality have been outstanding. Alice Graves, Alice is always ready to help a pal , especially when it comes to com- mercial stuclies. She has shown a deep interest in her work and she is always willing to c-op- erate in social activities. Scholarsh-ip to Barnes Business College. Willadee Gatewood, Her sunny smile and pleasant personality made her much liked by all. Though with us only two years she has become as one of us. Gertrude Lauby, Gertie, the ever-cheerful and willing worker has won many friends throughout her twelve years at St. An'thony's. Much will be lost when Gertrude's merry laughs are no longer heard. Elizabeth Bellender, With little ostenta- tion, Elizabeth has steadily worked her way through school and promises to apply like dili- gence in her future employment. Elizabeth Hergenreter, With a great deal of enthusiasrn Elizabeth has joined in all ath- letic activities at St. Anthony's. This trait has secured for her the applause of many. Anna Hergenreter, Anna is known for her carefree disposition. Worry will never leave its traces upon her countenance. Louise Lazzaretti, Sweet. gentle, and lov- able as Louise has shown herself just so dili- gent, reliable, and studious was she. Success is bound to come of it. Louise Dal Ponte, High scholarship has been Louise's aim throughout her high school career. She has reached this goal but is ever aiming higher. Scholarship to Loretto Heights College. Marcella Osterholt, Grace and charm won for Marcella the distinction of prom queen in 'her junior year. Such characteristics have fol- lowed her throughout her school year. Valedictory They Can Who Think They Can Twelve years ago, when we, the Class of '37, entered the first grade of St. Anthony's school, we little understood the pleasures, hardships, joys and sorrows 'that would come into our lives. We did not know life's meaning -in fact it had little-for all our experiences were limited to a very small environment that was soon to grow proportionately as our edu- cation advanced. ln passing through the first phase of our early training at school we began to encounter little difiiculties. Even from this early period we were taught by our able teachers to conquer these hardships, small ibut important, for they were to be the found-ation of our future struc- ture, built on They Can Who Think They Can. ' ln the second stage of our education, be- sides developing our minds and bodies we learned the meaning of loyalty, truthfulness, and good citizenship, qualities which are bound to spell future success. ln 'the third stage of our elementary train- ing we were taught the true meaning of re- sponsibility which valuable asset successfully launched us into our high school career. Here we were confronted with new and more diffi- cult assignments, were faced with different problems-some pleasant and others disagree- able. We found that all the combined character traits we had imbibed in our early training would stand us in good stead, and armor us to SENIOR overcome these new obstacles and have us gain by them. Now we have completed our years train- ing at St. Anthony's-a course which is not on- ly the first stepping stone into the future, but a fortress for the battle of life. The preparation we have made for this battle will promptly show itself when we en-ter the field of action. Let us put forth our best efforts and make use of every opportunity that comes our way, nev- er forgetting that They Can Who Think They Can. -Clarence Mentgen. Our Last Willland Testament We, the Senior Class of St. Anthony's, of the County of Logan and State of Colorado, being of sound and disposing mind and mem- ory and about to pass out of existence, do make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any and all former wills by us at any time heretofore made: Q First: We bequeath our fine characters, repu- tations and our manner of heckl'ing people, all our hopes, ambitions, and dreams, our old alarm clocks, and the lbreakfasts we never ate toh, those deten- tions!l our brilliance and intelligence to the Junior Class with the express stipulation that if they are found unworthy of these gifts, our adiministrator, Father Potempa, will pass the estate on to the un- derclassmen. I, Alic-e Graves, will my loquacity and my abil- ity to pester people to Alvin Unrein. I, Gertrude Lauby, leave my cosmetics and my smile to June Flaherty. I, Louise Lazzaretti, will my curly locks and my studiousness to Josie Ahern. I, Mildred Wernsnran, leave my immense height and my spectacles to -Felix Kloberdanz. I, Elizabeth Bellender, bequeath my chewing gum and soft, musical voice to Ellen Flaherty. I, Marcella Osterholt, give my hunger for lead pencils and my grimaces in English class to Mary Kay Hagerty. I, Willadee Gatewood, will my dancing feet, to Pauline Becker, and my cookies and candy to Mar- garet Ah-ern. I, Anna Hergenreter, leave my re-port card to Dolores Schutte. I, Elizabeth Hergenreter, will my quiet ways to Edith Quint and my English notebook to Barbara Maurer. I, Lou'se Dal Ponte will my outstanding pep and ambition to Elizabeth -Mildenberger, and my grades in history to Florence Killerlain. I, Germane Klausner, leave my working ability to Helen Gollobith, and my soprano voice to Rose Ann Asnicar.

I, Bob Hoifman will my wavy hair and Editor- ship of the Paduan to Bill Truitt. I, Louis Schlenz, Jr. Esq. III, will my witty man- ner and the Gypsy in Me to Bernard Quinn. I, Clarence Mentgen, will my personality and knowledge in English to Loomis Ayres. I, Peter Breiner, issue a warning to Stop, Look and Think twice before taking Trig to Clarence Schadegg. I, Aldo Vecchia, will my speed tests in typing to Paul J. Selwald. I also will my complexion to Paul. I, Howard Killerlain, will my argumentative abil-ity to Joseph Cummins and my bookkeeping set to Johnny Breiner. I, William I-Iaverland will my bright eyes and my scientific knowled'ge to Clarence Appelhans. I, Jack Keenan will my accuracy and attention in Journalism to Margaret Mary Graves. We make, constitute and appoint Father Potempa the sole executor of this our last will and testament. ln Witness Whereof, we have hereunto subscribed our names and affixed our seal this l7th day of May, A. D. 1937. fseall The Seniors of S. A. l-I. S. The Graduating Class of S. A. H. S. This is a typical survey of the Graduating Class of Nineteen l-lundred Thirty-Seven. lts component parts are twenty young men and women, ranging from average to su- per. Sixteen of them have belonged to it since its inception on the Tuesday following Labor Day in the year 1933. Eight of its component parts are hand- some and valiant. Twelve are charming and demure. From its combined 'height of nearly 200 feet it can look into the windows of the four- teenth story of the lvoolworth Building on Broadway. From such an elevation, how far can this class not see! Its combined weight is three thousand one hundred and twenty-five pounds. Weight enough surely to anchor its feet to prosaic work, even though its head is in the clouds! It's combined years are three hundred and sixty, which is no mean age, even in com- parison with that of Methusalah. Consider the wisdom of a class that has seen almost four hundred yearsl Empires have risen and fallen, wars have been declared aand won, fads have swept the earth and died out since its eyes first saw the light of dayi With what an accumula- tion of experience and wisdom will it go forth into the world! X-Ray Findings of A Senior's Brain Latin--Amo, sole relic from the fall The patient's brain sustained in Gaul. History-A thousand dates long since set freeg A horse of famed antiquity. Chemistry--One atom, teary as to face Lost in the vast, uncharted spac e. Typing-An inadvertent V for B: A luckless caret struck for 3. Shorthand-A mess that not the highest bribe Could induce a stenog to transcribe. Math-Nine hopelessly bepuzzled digits That gave the patient untold fidgets. English-Unnumbered ain'ts: a gem or so From Shakespeare, Riley, Keats and Poe. ACTIVITIES CLASS PRESIDENT r bers added to their class, the juniors have not only parti- Wit'h four mem- cipated in all school functions sponsored during the past year, but have been in- strumental in pro- moting a goodly number 'of them.

CLASS PRESIDENT Other purely so- cial affairs sponsored by the group consist- ed of Noon Lunch- eon january I3, and a Pre-Lenten party February l. Sportsmanship - Having played foot- ball since he was in fifth grade, Bill Tru- itt stands out among his upperclassrnen as an efficient member ofthe squad. Law- rence Beuender and Florence Killerlain John Breiner are also members of the team. All three played with the seconds in basketball. The girls displayed their sportsmanship by being active members of the pep club. Flor- ence Killerlain, cheer leader, was re-elected to the same position for another year.

Although Freshmen, as a rule, apparent- ly play an insignficant part in the lives of their upperclassmen, the l937 c-lass managed in more 'than one way to make itself known and no'ticed. Always on the spot when there was a call for action, the Freshmen have acquainted themselves with practically every activity spon- sored during the school year. All of the boys were received into the Blessed Virgin Mary Sodality, with their fel- low-students on April 5, Feast of the Annun- ciation. CLASS PRESIDENT John Barton As regards scholarship, Loomis Ayres has maintained an A average throughout his Freshman year. Although not merrrbers of the basketball and football teams the Freshmen have chim- ed in on all 'the noon baseball games they could. Ping pong held the interest of both the boys and girls. Among the group the most out- standing players were Yvonne Schutte, Marga- ret Craves, Joseph Schiel, aand joseph Spahn. The girls of the class were for the most part representative members of the Pep Club. Along the line of social activity the Fresh- men must be complimented upon the excel- lently arranged all-school party which they sponsored on April 9. ln order to afford ample entertainment for al'l, a short program was given. This was followed by a number of unusually interesting games, dancing to the accompaniment of an accordion, and refreshments. The class officers for the Freshman class are: President, John Barton: Vice President, Loomis Ayres: Secretary, Dorothy Petersen. Class Adviser, Sister Mary Corona.

A real incentive for work was instilled in- to the students 'the very first day, when the number of awards taken at the Logan County fair of I936 was announced as including five firsts, seven seconds, and four third prizes. To build a foundation of the correct ideas of art, the initial work of the year included a study of the fundamental principles of design, color and composition. Attractive original borders, panels and all-over designs resulted from the application of such principles. Before many weeks had passed these de- signed borders were applied to such articles as table runners, drapes, and pillows by stencil- ling, and to book covers. billfolds, wristwatch bands and purses by leather tooling. Various types of work occupied the groups of art studenfts at Christmas time. The making of gifts claimed the time of most of them. A few made it their business to convert old fruit jars into painted lanterns for the carollers. Sev- eral lent their artistic ability to the designing of posters to be posted around school dur- ing the holidays. All, however, contribut- ed a carved ivory soap statue for the Christmas crib. Immediately following the Christ- mas holidays several new projects were begun. The girls always interested in beautifying their homes, painted lamp shades for their parlors and bedrooms as well. ln the meantime 'the boys indulged in their age-old hobby of chip carving. Letter files, book ends, paper knives and paper weights were among their creations. ln accordance with established cus- tom, the mid-year Art Exhibit was held the week of February 7th. All the work of i Y ble was sponsored by the art department on February I4 to give ideas for tasty decorations to the entire student body, 'as well as anyone who wished to see the display. A table decorafted for a farewell party by Edith Quint, Catherine Behm, and Ru-th Deter- man was awarded first prize. Suitable decora- tions for parties for Lincoln's birthday, Val- entine Day, an engagement were also displayed. and graduation The mon-th preceding the close of the year the class was occupied preparing work for the annual County Fair. Plates of illuminated lettering, pen and ink drawings, masks and all sorts of craft work resulted from a month of concentrated effort. To climax the year's work, a unique dem- onstration was given with marionettes con- structed by a group of nine students during the course of the year. Bluebeard , a three-act play was presented, and novelty nunfbers were given during the entertainment. Top-C. Behm, M. Troy, H. Haverland, A. Un- 1 w w I 1 rein, R. Asnicar. Bottom-'M. Ahern, M.

Gate- Although the St. Anthony's Music Department did not in- clude an orchestra this year, the glee clubs, both boys' and girls' have been sufliciently ac- tive to more than make up for this deficiency. With few exceptions all of the junior and senior girls were accepted as members of the Girls' Glee club. The male chorus made up of upper-classmen also, in- cluded only nine members, but these sufliced to out voice if not to out number 'the for- mer group. The first demonstration of combined gen- ius on the part of the glee clubs was displayed at the annual Christmas car-olling tour through the city, held on December 22. Quaint lanterns added the ancient atmosphere so imperative to such an affair. On various occasions both the boys and girls entertained at programs. An Indian Song program as well as a St. Patriclfs day program were outstanding features among these. The final undertaking of the Girls' Glee club for t-he school year of I937 was the oper- etta Margie Goes Modern by Carrington. The cast of characters: Margie, niece of foundress, Louise Dal Pon- te.

Margie, a student of the Brower's insti- 'tute of Art, will inherit a million dollars if she wins the Cecilian Medal before she is twenty- one. The medal is 'to be awarded to the best painting. It is to the advantage of Madame Ra- phael and the judges to keep Margie from win- ning the prize for if she fails to win, the money will revert to the Academy. The girls -of the Art institute when they hear of the plot to keep Margie from winning the prize decide to leave their paintings un- signed so that Margie can claim the prize. Mar- gie hides a painting 'that she has discarded. The judges not knowing what to do when they find the paintings unsigned decided to give the prize to the poorest painting by proclaiming it a piece of modern art.

MUSIC ml 1 Religion and Poetry ' Any studen't of literature and one who is especially interested in poetry cannot fail to recognize the relationship between religion and poetry, since it is as impossible to separate God from the world's great 'poetry as it is to sepa- rate Him from creation itself, because every great poem 'that 'has ever been written has a certain religious element. Man invariably turns to poetry as a medium for expression whenever he desires -to express something indescribably beautiful. We know that Cod is infinite Beauty and the Creator of all beauty, and here is the correlation, the interdependence between re- ligion and poetry. At first one may wonder where this inter- dependence exists in our modern poetry. At the turn of the century Aimerica became an in- dustrial na-tion producing and manufacturing. Vast armies of men and women were employ- ed to keep the machinery moving. Naturally there arose social problems, workers were paid poorly and little or no happiness entered into their lives. They lived from hand to mouth. Strikes and panics resulted. lt is only natural that the 'poetry of this period is a reflection of the times. The poets show evidence of having gone to life for their inspiration and mater- ial. With a change in theme the older forms and generalities of the previous periods did not suit the modern moods: as a result we now have free verse, common everyday speech, hard, clear, imaginary, and commonplace sub- jects. Some of the new school have gone to the extremes and even to the extent of becoming ridiculous. No doubt this new development saved poetry from becoming pale and artificialg how- ever, we are too close to the new poetry to judge it fairly arid there may yet be some real- ly great poems produced through the new school. As a proof of this statement let us com- pare two poets of the Transitional Period of American Literature and two of the Modern Period. Emily Dickinson, although not a Catholic, gave expression to her deep religious convic- tions in the following lines: I never spoke with Cod, ,Nor visited in heaven: Yet certain am l of the spot As if the chart were given. Father Tabb--a convert to the Catholic church and ordained to the priesthood in ISS4, has contributed rare gems to the field of poe- try. The phrase mul'tum in parvo -much in little as one writer uses it, seems to best de- scribe Father Tabb's poetry. His quatrains con- tain a tremendous amount of meaning, mani- festing a deep love of nature, and an unfalter- ing faith in God. I see Thee irgthe distant blue: - But in the violet's dell of dew, Behold, l breathe and touch Thee too. Under his pen inanimate things take on life and beauty and the abstract becomes con- crete and personal. ln the modern period we find Joyce Kil- mer, also a convert to the Church, who was killed in action during the World War at the age of thirty-two. With his death America and the Church lost a poet of rare accomplishment and great promise. One of his best known and loved' poems is Trees . -He was a man deeply tender fat heart who speaks to us in lyrics of great beauty. E My shoulders ache beneath my pack CLie easier, Cross, upon His backl. Lord, Thou didst suffer more for me Than all the hosts of land and sea. So Let me render back again This millionth of Thy Gift. Amen. Ruth Mary Fox, a writer of our own day, reveals to us her deep spirituality as brought out beautifully in her sonnet Carrying Christ Christ in His Sacrament oflove each day Dwells- in my soul a little space and then l walk life's crowded highway, jostling men Who seldom -think of God. To these l -pray That l may carry Christ, for it may be Some would not know of Him except through me. -Patricia Ann McLaughlin '38, Caesar of History and Caesar of Shakespeare When we read Shakespeares Julius Cae- sar we are quite amazed to find him so vain, pompous, and obstinate in adhering to his own opinions, so boastful of his polar star con- stancy . However, we realize that Shakespeare took several liberties with the Caesar of his- tory. This great general whom we have admir- ed in history was by no means the cheap boas- ter he is represented in the play. Although he was eager for power, he enacted many laws for the good of the people. For dramatic purpose, Shakespeare -presented only those traits which are suited to the play and many of these are not admirable, they are anything but desirable. He is portrayed as physically weak and intel- lectually vacillating, ambitious, cowardly, su- perstitious ancl vain-glorious: while in reality he was one of the greatest soldiers, statesmen and scholars that ever existed. Hudson says of him: Caesar is far from being himself in these scenes: hardly one of the speeches put into his mouth can be regarded as historically 'charac- teristicg taken altogether, they are little short of a downright caricature. and when he speaks, it is very much in the style of a glorious braggart, LITERARY t full cf lofty airs and mock thunder. How can we reconcile the Caesar of Shakespeare to the hero we have admired in history-the man Who won so many vfictories on the field of bat- tle and in the Forum? Can he be the man who has come down to us as such a striking person- ality worthy of our esteem and admiration? According to the view of one author, Shakes- peare could not afford to depict such an im- pressive picture of Caesar. lf our sympathy for him were too keen, it would detract from our kindly feeling toward Brutus. Brutus would seem a little less than a brute. Furthermore, Caesar's role comes to an end at about the mid- dle of the play. If our attitude toward him is such, his disappearance will interrupt our inter- est in the play as a whole. Consequently, Shakespeare defpreciates Caesar's virtuesancl magnihes his faults. Another writer says: Cae- sar as Shakespeare conceives him, is a most fascinating study in arrested development. He has achieved supreme power in the Roman state: he has defea-ted his rival, Pompey: he is in fact, if not in name, a king. And he rests on his laurelsg he stops growing. His victories have made 'him over-confident: over-secure: his place in 'the sun has turned his head. There- fore, we find him boasting: Caesar shall forth: the things that threatened me , Ne'er look'd but on my back: w'hen they shall see The face of Caesar, they are vanished. And again : I rather tell thee what is to be feared Than what l fear: for always I am CAESAR. ln the play he shows neither the modesty nor the quiet self-confidence that usually ac- companies true greatness: rat-her his wisdom is consumed in confidence. The position to which he is raised: the never-failing adulation with which he is surrounded, the success he has achieved-all this left its mark upon him so that he already speaks of himself in the third pfrson-as though he were a god. For exam- p e: Caesar is turned to hearn: . Caesar shall forth. However, it is evident on the other hand, that Shakespeare understood and admired the greatness of Caesar's character. We read: Thou are the ruins of the noblest man That ever lived in the tide of times. -Florence Killerlain '39. Editorial given Honorable Mention in Scholas- tic Awards Contest-by Barbara' Maurer '38 Q And Their Light Shines 'February marks the birthdays of two fa- mous men of History, George Washing-ton whose birthday is celebrated on the 22nd and Abraham Lincoln whose birthday is on Febru- ary l2. h Wash'ington, the Father of our Country was one of the greatest patriots in the history of 'the United States. He led a small but brave army against the British to win freedom from England. He was the first president of the United States and helped draw up the Consti- tution whereby the thirteen colonies announc- ed their independence from England in l776. Washington was a great leader, an able statesman, and a man with sterling qualities. Abraham Lincoln rose from an humble country boy to the position of president of the United States. His heart was with the poor and common folkg he won freedom for the slaves of the South, even though it meant civil war. ln his famous Gettysburg Address he express- ed the true ideals of every patriotic citizen of America, the same ideals found in the pream- ble of the Constitution. Lincoln did not have the same advant- ages that Washington had, but was a self-edu- cated man. He had a great love for books. Lincoln had a noble character and above all he was honest, known even today as Honest Abe. It is fitting and proper that we observe the birthdays of these two men, who by their un- tiring efforts made this country the great na- tion it is today. Book Review- Vanity Fair -William Makepeace Thackeray. This novel is Thackeray's masterpiece, and it is the only novel of society which has ever ranked as a classic. The author is a master of pure, simple English prose and also of blunt satire. His object is to bringhmut the shallow- ness of some of his characters. ln these he em- bodies all the vulgarity, hypocrisy, and immor- ality of society. However, at times his satire becomes too coarse and dbscure. His charac- ters are usually representative of types and not individuals. The plot is well developed and the climax rather unexpected. The story has no hero, but it is not without a heroine, the adventuress of literature, Becky Sharp. In contrast to her is Rretty, pink-and- white Amelia, whose place in society is assur- ed by birth. She be-friends Becky while they are at school and invites her to her home. Here Becky first begins her climb toward the heights of societv. At first the reader's sympathy is en- listed in her attempts to rise above the low sta- tion in life she occupies by birth. Though she is quite successful, few if any will admire the means by which she attains these ends. ' -Patricia Ann McLaughlin '38.

Afterthe installation of the new officers, Barbara Maurer, Prefectg Marcella Osterholt, As- sistant Prefect: Germane Klaus- ner, Secretary: the first meeting was conducted. A program prom- ising greater activity both spirit- ually and socially, was presented to an eager group of sodalists. During the month of October a new prac- tice, the living Rosary was ushered into our lo- cal unit of the sodality. Four or five girls met each day before the shrine of the Blessed Vir- gin to send their unceasing prayers to their heavenly Queen. To encourage a lasting devo- tion to the Rosary, Father Verschraeghen, gave a short meditation on the Hail Mary on October l4. At the annual parish bazaar, held Novem- ber 25 and 26, the Blessed Virgin Sodality took charge of the doll booth as formerly. On the Feast of -the Immaculate Concep- ticn the sodalists received Holy Communion in a body. ln the evening all enjoyed a social hour in the school hall. , The first joint meeting with the sodalists of Sacred Heart Church at Peetz, Colo., was held at St. Anthony's on January 24. A dinner Barbara Maurer was served at which Father Ver- schraeghen and Father Ryan each gave an address. At an all-school meeting held in March it was decided to reorganize the Sodality to include the boys as well as the girls. Sol- emn reception for the boys was held on Monday, April 5, the Feast of the Annunciation. On April l2th the new offi- cers for the year I937-38 were elected. William Truitt is to replace Barbara Maurer as Pre-fect, with Bernard Quinn as first Assistant, Barbara Maurer, as -second Assist- ant, and Florence Killerlain as Secretary. The Eucharistic Committee includes Bernard Quinn, chairman, with Clarence Schadegg, james Brown, Mark Foxhoven, and Loomis Ayres as assistants. Our l..ady's Committee is made up of Barbara Maurer, chairman, Elizabeth Mil- clenvberger, Patricia Ann McLaughlin. Mary Kathryn Hagerty, and Cecilia Schadegg. Witih such representative committees the work of the sodality should be facilitated for the coming year. Sodality activities for the year I936-37 were climaxed with a Mother and Father breakfast held on May 9th, Mothers' Day, on the afternoon of which the May Crowning took place. Sr. Mary Francita has succeeded Sr. M. Celine as sponsor of the sodality. RIAY CORONATION Back- -P. Bremer, R. I-Ioifman, B. Quinn, F. Killerlain, B. Maurer, G. Klausner, W. Truitt. H. Killerlain.

How Dare You , a comedy in three acts written by Walt Spence, was presented at the Municipal Auditorium by the senior class on May IO, under the direction of Sister M. Fred- erick. The play opens at a time when Mr. Fuller, president of the Fuller Paper Company, was ordered away bv his doctor for a rest. l-lis first thought was Who will look after that unruly, that incorrigible family of mine? However, his worrfment was soon relieved when his sec- retary, 'Steve Goodspeed. volunteered to un- dertake the job. Mr. Fuller warned him what to expect but Steve hailed from Texas and knew something about breaking in bronchos, and he figured that he should be capable of managing the riotous Fuller family. But he fig- ured wrongly. Breaking bronchos, he soon learned, was easy in comparison. I-low that family kicked up the tracesl When he tried to restrain Mrs. Fuller from her ridiculous extravagances she flew into an hysterical rage: and Howard, that upstart son, fairly reared at the mention of dis- cipline: and as for Margaret, when he tried to curb her infatuation for Rodney Beresford, he was rewarded for his interference with a slap in the face. To make matters worse. a dastardly plot to ruin the Fuller Company was brought to light. Steve is thus confronted with the prob- lem of governing the family and protecting the business o'f his devoted friend. ln spite of all, Steve manages to cope with all these compli- cated situations and proves himself the man for the job.

DRAMA Father Potempa Our Sports Director Defpite the fact that Father Potempa has been engaged with many other important du- ties, he never cons.dercd tlme spent on the team wasted. Being particularly interested in football, he made every effort to promote the success of the squad undertakings. Father Potempa is also responsible for the excellent program of indoor sports initiated in- to St. Anthony's this year. No word of thanks could fully express the appreciation which we, the student body, wish to extend to Father Potempa, our sports direc- tor. Football A St. Anthcny's Bobcats although not able to complete their entire schedule, due to the in- fantile paralysis epidemic that prevailed all through the football season, were nevertheless victorious in three out of their four encounters. The first was the annual alumni battle in which the Bobcats trimmed their opponents I2 to 7. The next game was with the Crook eleven, who dropped the Bobcats to a I3 to 7 loss. This one de-feat was, however, quickly made up for by two smashing victories over Otis High sc-hocl, the scores being I9 to 0 and 38 to 7. Nvith this last 38 to 7 victory the football season was closed. The squad was composed of Bernard Quinn, Charles Wagner, Lawrence Shaughnes- sv, Howard Killerlain, Peter Breiner, William Truitt, Aldo Vecchia, John Breiner, ,lack Kee- nan, William Haverland and Bob Hoffman. Pep Club During the past year, our Pep club has been an organization of which we can be just- ly proud. Due to the able leadership of our cheer leaders, Willadee Gatewood, Florence Killerlain, and Barbara Maurer, their willing cooperation in furnishing transportation and their cheers of encouragement they have done much towards making this athletic campaign successful. Cheer Leaders I Willadee Gatewood, Barbara Maur- er, Florence Killerlain. Back Row-Schlenz, Shaughnessy, Mentgen, Wagner, Quinn. Front Row-Killerlain, Breiner, Truitt, Vecchia, P. Breln-er, Keenan, Hoff- man. PORTS X . Basketball A full schedule of eleven games was play- ed by the basldteball squad of St. Anth'ony's this season. Although they were not as success- ful as they might have been, they nevertheless climaxed the season in the final tilt with a vic- tory over the Ovid Red-Devils wlhose team was runner-up in the divisional meet held in Ster- ling. Without dodbt each member of the team deserves merit for the interest and effort mani- fested throughout. But without the direction of our loyal coach, Ed Carr, little success would have been attained. To him the team extends a hearty thank you . Ping Pong A real system of indoor sports was initi- atediinto St. Anthony's this year by Father Po- tempa, Sports Director. Two deck tennis sets Baseball C. Schadegg, W. Truitt and two Ping Pong tables were set up in the school hall and each day during a period of one half-hour students were engaged in contest games preparatory to the final tournament. A loving cup was awarded the champion boy and girl who succeeded in defeating the winner of each class. Honors in this year's tournament go to two Sophomores, Cecilia Schadegg and William Truitt. M.

Musings of an Alumnus Time marches onl And those whom the Alma Mater knew as merry girls and hap- py boys have gone forth to conquer the world, and we now find them serious-minded men and women, slowly getting the upper hand in this battle of life. Several weeks ago we dropped in at the home of Miss Marcella Lauby '26, when at an elaborate dinner she announced 'her marriage to Mr. A. N. Carey of San Diego, California. We extend to her our felicitations in her future role as Mrs. Carey. While pondering upon the subjects of matrimony and extending felicitations. we con- sider the 'various blessed secrets which have honored our Alumni during the past year. Mr. and Mrs. George Reynolds fLoretta Dugan '26 of Rapid City, S. D., reported the birth of a girl October 9, and with their New Year Resolution came a son to Mr. and Mrs. l... Cal- lendar fl..ouise Mentgen '26, of Stapleton, Neb. Last August 27 Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Johnson fMargaret Bellender '27, became parents of a boy. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Flaherty '35 fMargaret Scott '35, proudly announced a boy January 3. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Koehler of Denver became parents of a boy, as also did Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Uphoff of Sterling. Philomena Stibley '26 fMrs. G. Krause, still resides in Sterling, and according to our findings Adolph Mentgen '26 is still totalling cash books and making entries in ledgers for the White Star Mills of Salina, Kans. CMore en- tries to himl, A slight meander through the well-damp- ened avenues of Sterling led us to.discover that Mrs. T. Schaefer fClara Stibley '27, is making a fine home for her family at 52l Chestnut St. Mrs. William Lousberg fMary Berg '27, is still living in the St. Peter's district. Mrs. Frank Berg fCecilia Wagner '28, is doubtless preparing tasty meals for hungry lumberjacks to the staccato of clanging axes, the thumping of tree trunks, and 'buzz of saws amid the pines and redwoods near Mt. Angel, Ore., where her husband operates a sawmill. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Wagner '30 fViolet Cum- mins '29, have likewise gone thither. Where rolls the Oregon, and hear no sound, save his own dashing. Clifford Burke '28 is still employed by the Sterling branch of the Public Service Com- pany of- Colorado, while Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Caldwell '28 CRosell'a Lauby '29, make their home at 323 N. Sth St., Mr. Caldwell being employed at the Sterling Packing and Provi- sion Company. The next time we are in a dilemma when shopping for a pink handkerchief or a yard of yellow ribbon for Fido, we shall permit our- selves to be rescued by the floor walker of floor-walkers, Julianna Lauby '28 at McClus- key's. Among clerks we find Ruby Elbert '29 AROUND SCHOOL ' ' ' i. LUM I AROUND SCHOOL V T of California and Sylvia Giacomini '29 of Den- ver. Elsie Allen '29 QMrs. R. Palmquistl is keeping house at Ovid, and Catherine Hotz '29 is acting angel of mercy at the Mercy hospi- tal, Denver. You bet she's an R. N. The art of bookkeeping is practiced by Hazel Lauby '30 at Adam's Drive-ln Market. She's doing excellent work in the church choir, too. Catherine Graves '30 fM'rs. Wm. Hive- lyl resides in Denver as does Florence Haver- land '30, The Alumni are movie-minded too. Vin- cent Byrne '30 manages a theatre in Cheyenne, Wyo. They speak of the postman's whistle. Per- sonally, we would call your attention to a very cheerful, very masculine voice saying, Good Morning as pronounced by Jimmy Cheno- weth '30, as he goes about our village deliver- ing the mail for Uncle Sam. Merle Green '30 is putting the finishing touches on 'her M. D. at the Oklahoma City Hospital, Oklahoma City, O'kla. Next time the dear old face needs lift- ing, instead of using a block and tackle we plan to drop in on Eleanor Cummins '30, beautician in a local salon. Among scholars is Vincent Ciacomini '3l a gradua'te of Regis College, Denver, at pres- ent a disciple of the Catholic University of Am- erica, at Washington, D. C. Theresa Graves '3l officially announces Doctor is in , and Doctor is out , etc., at the office of james McKnight, M. D. of our city. Another announcer is Bob Miller '3l whose ditty is going up , going down , main floor as he scoots from floor to floor in the Federal Building. Ed Pedroni is working the dear old ter- ra firma for his bread and honey at Padroni, Colo., while Clarence l..atta '3l recently open- ed a pharmacy at Fleming, Colo. Not long ago Esther Hoffman '3l became a saleslady at our local Montgomery Ward store. To those who enjoy die blessings of mat- rimony may we add Mrs. Lloyd Martin fVerna Brownl of Denver, and Mrs. LeRoy Anthony CFrances Harrington '3lj of Glendale, Cal. The next time someone croons, l..et's have another cup of coffee , they are advised to see those two Breiner twins,.Magdalen and Celestine '32, coffee-makers at one of our lo- cal cafeterias. Mr. and Mrs. Vincent lmmel '32 recently moved to Sidney, Ne'b., where Vin is employ- ed by Stickney's. The same firm also employs Dick McMullen. Tommy Ryan operates a drug store in Iowa, and Swede Koehler is local- ly emiployed by a slot machine company. Amid Logan County's notaries, in Ster- ling's Court House, is found Martha Wagner '32, keeping books and taking dictation. Among the ,Iuliets who patiently await their Romeos , fso we supposel belong Mar- garet Schneider '33 and Della Asnicar '33. Tillie Lauby '33 has left 'her floor walk- ership at the local 5 and I0 cent store to be- come a sales lady at Montgomery Ward and Company, and Emmet Green '33 is supplying the demand for foot-gear for the citizenry of Leed, S. D., while Larry Mentgen '33 is doing much the same for the Sterlingites at Penney's. LUM 'I Alexander Artzer '33 is a prosperous agriculturist with a wife and baby girl. Back -in the old grind, slav- ing for a sheep skin at Loretto Heights, Denver, is joan Ayres '33. Rosemary Schiel '33 has now 'become Mrs. Hergenreter. Susan Conrad '33 is making her home with her parents at Iliff, while Lula Harrington '33 assists in operating the Sterling Cafe. Have a cigar? Well, Art Mentgen '34 has a whole truck load of them just behind his shoulder blades which 'he de- livers to local merchants for the Vvestern Cigar Company. His old pal, Nick Mildenberger, in our opinion, has better taste. Behind his scapular fand, per- haps behind his belt, tool 'he carries the best of Lime Rickey, Orange Crush, Cocoa Cola, al- so beers and ales. Nicholas drives a truck for the Sterling Bottling Works. Under a spreading chestnut tree, The village smithy stands. But what concerns us follows: The smith a mighty man is he, With large and sinewy hands. Transform the Chestnut to a poplar and you have the en- vironment of Joe Osterholt at his father's shop. Another beautician is Cath- erine Green '34, while Alba Vecchia is school ma'am at the Fairview school. At Pasadena, Cal., we find Leo Hotz ,'34 selling refrigera- tors for the Kelvinator Co.: while Helen Crosby '34 -honors Indianapolis, Ind., with her stenography. Mary Lauby '34 is a saleslady at McCluskey's of Sterling, as is Marion Haver- land '34 at Montgomery Ward in Denver. Pauline Haberkorn is happily married and resid- ing in Denver.

While we shan't attempt to construe the difference between our victim and a parrot, may we say that Miss lmmel '35 is at present a Sophomore at Lor- etto Heights College, where she displays her ugaite de Coeur. The matrimonial state 'has welcomed Jane Budd '35 who, as Mrs. R. Weeks resides at Riverside, Cal. lnto the same category comes Sylvester Up- hoff, spouse of La Vida Troy, who drives a truck for the Ster- ling Laundry. Among the romances which began in school and terminated in happy unions, is that of Ralph Flaherty '35 and Mar- garet Scctt '35. Mr. Flaherty is assistant butcher at the Pioneer Market, where years ago his father, too, was employed. Three of St. Anthony's Alumnae -have chosen the better part in giving them- selves to fthe Eternal Bride- groom in the perfection of the Religious Life. Virginia Mc- Mullen, who became Sister Mary Gratia of the Order of St. Francis, has already gone to her reward. During the past year Margaret Ruh '35 and Mary Anne Schmidt '35 were admitted to the Novitiate of the Sisters of St. Francis, re- ceiving 'the names, Sister Mary Urban, and Sister Mary Au- drey. May tlhey persevere in their divine call and inspire others to likewise follow the footsteps of the Master.

Au'thor's Note: We assume no responsibility for any mis- takes and inaccuracies in this treatise. The Author. The Dictionary The dictionary is a book. Sometimes itis a big book, sometimes it's a little book, but no matter how big or how little a book it is, it's still a dic- tionary. A dictionarv has many uses, it can be used as an ex tension for a chair, when some- body is sitting in the chair who is unable to reach the table without it. It is used in librar- ies to take up space on the shelves and 'to improve the ap- pearance of the library. Too, dictionaries can be used to a good advantage to hold a num- ber of smaller books in place, so they won't fall down. Out- side of. these uses the diction- ary ain't much good except that it's a lot to carry around. Oh, yes, l forgot to mention, some people use them sometimes to look up words they don't know. m m-gm m m m 77-I m - E L E C T R I C I T Y The Modern Fuel It is your cheapest servant USE IT MORE Public Service Co.

The Court stood and in walllkeid 'th e great 'judge Study . The prosecuting at- torney, Mr. Intellect, and the defending attorneys, Slang and Neglect, followed him in. The Judge being seated, the Court sat down and listened while His I-lonor said in a voice of very severe quality, wllhe In- habitants of the Land of Knowledge versus A. Fresh- man. The prosecuting attorney rose and opened the trial with these words, Your Honor, Gentlemen of the Jury, and people of this country, we are here to prove that this so-called A. Freshman has cruelly as- saulted Messrs. Algebra, Latin, Spanish, English, Gen e r a I Science and their relations. l-le is also accused of wilfully slight- ing his duties to these aforesaid persons. His duties when they have been done, have been done carelessly, inorderly, and very incorrectly. It is also charged that he has tried to murder Messrs. English, Latin, and Spanish and has often al- most succeeded. l-Ie has also committed open acts of mutiny against all the persons mention- ed in this address. I hereby now turn the floor over to Messrs. Slang and Neglect. With these words he sought his chair and Mr. Slang came forward to speak for the de- fending attorneys. ' ' Y o u r Honor, Gents of the Jury, and all youse other guys, all I is got to say' is that what that at- torney sa's ain't sol l-Ie then marched off to his seat. The first witness came and took the stand. I-Ie was Mr. m LEE- N Algebra. After taking the oath, he testified that the culprit, A. Freshman, had taken his equa- tions, squares, cubes, roots, etc., and had turned them into most malicious usage. With these properties he had de- stroyed his flVlr. Algebra'sD very foundations, had left him in a 'stunned condition, and been heard boasting about what 'he had done. Even Mr. Neglect's threats would or could not make ihim change his statements. Mr. English was next and he told of terrible tortures which' A. Freshman had put -him through. Cf how after he had lent A. Freshman words of all kinds, conjugations, sentences, and the like, he had turned these words into horrible in- struments, which he then ap- plied to Mrl English and near- ly killed him. Mr. Latin and Mr. Spanish all testified that the same things had happened to them. Mr. Slang and Mr. Neglect threatened them with most painful treatment if they would not change their story, but al- though they turned pale -they refused to vary their testimony. General Science was the last witness to take the stand. He told of how all the facts and things he had showered upon A. Freshman had been turned against him and used to muti- late him and cause him to be in tortures for nine long months. After these witnesses had been heard, Mr. Study, the prosecuting attorney rose and gave a most stirring speech about convicting A. Freshman. Then Mr. Neglect gave a speech that could not have moved a feather. The jury, after Hve minutes in conference returned and gave the verdict of guilty. The judge then pro- nounced the sentence, that A. Freshman would have to spend the rest of his life studying. At this A. Freshman gave a scream, and a jerk and awoke to find himself in bed. -Loomis Ayres. r p ualit Creamery l IBLIZO S.

Reminiscences of Sneak Day I remember it was at approxi- mately at 4 -a. m., Tuesday, May 18, that twenty gaily spirited Sen- iors started for a beautiful spot at the foot of Mt. Meeker. The day of days had arrived. We stealthily left our homes, crept cautiousfy to the school cam-pus and hastily stole -in-to the awaiting cars which promptly left for the good old hills. We took the South St. Vrain h'ghway and arrived there around 8:30, hungry 'but happy. Aft-er breakfast we assembled for a hike. This hike took us up in the moun- tains where we ate a very hearty dinner. After dinner we climbed until -albout four o'clock. After this we were right ready for a hearty weinie fry. They ne- ver tasted better! But by this time we were completely exhausted. With one eye shut we boarded our cars and started oi for home- sweet-home. Baseball St. Anthony's, under the sponsorship of the Knights of Columbus, has entered the Jun- ior Circuit of the softball con- ference conducted annually at the local Fair grounds. Six strong teams comprise the lea- gue. St. Anthony's will rely principally on the performance of lsidore Stang, who will bear the brunt of the hurling duties. On Etiquette Sir Thomas Cat, head of the Etiquette Department of Cat College, in the capital of Cat- land, was hunting for his din- ner. Besides writing a book call- ed, The Universal Etiquette for Educated Cats , he was al- so finding out the proper way to catch birds. Lord James Sparrow, who is one of the noted wits in the realms of the great Empire, otherwise known as Bird- landn, was seeking his daily diet by pecking his beak into the earth for worms. So busy was he at his occupation he never noticed Sir Thomas Cat. Sir Thomas gave one glance at Lord James and knew here was the place to catch a bird with manners. And we all know that is -the proper thing to do. Waving his tail politely, of course, he advanced with a slow and graceful manner, which is very becoming to a cat of his high rank, towards the great wit Lord james Sparrow. A tense moment with a polite, ever so polite movement, Sir Thomas leaped and Lord james was embedded between two claws of the conspiring fe- line. Evidently his mighty wit soon came into play. He was figuring out a scheme when a thought struck him that this was Sir Thomas, the expert on Car Etiquette. No gentl-eman would eat me before he washed his face, explained the honorable Sir james Sparrow. These words greatly insulted the great and all-powerful king of Cat Eti- quette, Sir Thomas Cat, E. M. CEtiquette Masterj to the very bone itself. Releasing his hold Qjust one second mind youl he proceed- ed to perform his daily and very frequent bath. ln this in- stant Sir James Sparrow shot for the tree like a flash of light- ning. A page from The Univer- sal Etiquette for Educated Cat , by Sir Thomas Cat, E. M., will explain his reaction. XVhen a cat has caught a bird, mouse, or any other eat- able animal, he should proceed with his meal at once and per- form his bath after the repast is devoured. ---Loomis Ayres '40.

My Algebra, O thou- Cause of the people blue- Thy na-me l hate: I hate your x and y, Your squares that make me sigh, Your fractions make me lie, Like those below. Let English swell the breeze, And fly from all the trees, its dumb pronouns: May verbs and nouns break, May adjectives go waste, May adverbs drown in lakes- No sound prolong. General Science, Oh! Author of peace, No! Noi To thee we moang Long may our land be bright Without your beastly sight, Protected from your might, America. -Loomis Ayres ' 40. Take My Advice Cramming for examination seems to me a waste of time. After all, the examinations are meant as a test on the sub- ject already covered and if the student doesn't know it then he must not have 'been paying attention when the matter was discussed. The examination can no more than cover what know- ledge the student has already learned and if he studied in the first place he has nothing to fear. ln the second place, cram- ming is likely to cause the whole thing to be jum'bled up in his mind, and he will not pass after all. Therefore, time immediate- ly before exams should be spent resting -the mind and re- viewing the subject lightly ra- ther than cramming the Whole thing. -One Who Knows. , K J ,uwwwawdjjxifngraplyn UMM7 af- 371 Vwjlywwbddwqwwfwwvfwnflwa Tmwwdwgifwpfyabfmuqg VW 254,41 lad rave!
