Page Forty-three Month-end Musicales have become an established factor for the development of the students, scientifically and technically, as well as aesthetically. The pur- pose of having pupils perform from memory—frequently, and in the presence of the faculty and student body—is to help them to acquire poise as well as musical skill and enable them to “be ready”, when called upon, to contribute to the pleasure of others. Piano work has been exceptionally good this year. The violin pupils have given, at public performances, some of the easier concertos, sonatas, etc., with much credit. The 1922 orchestra is recognized as a valuable asset to the school. It is easily the best we have had since its organization. The membership has been larger but the most gratifying result is the quality of the music. The newly-organized Girls’ Glee Club, (in the words of Hamlet), made “A hit, a very palpable hit” at the open air fete. Page Forty-four D P3 D E _________________________________'A •. • !, ‘ J- -:il I :• •____ ■ ■___:_________________A________________i lt e r aii y I lie St. Thomas Aquinas Reading Club, organized in 1921, has contributed largely to the literary culture and social development of the girls. Meetings are held every Sunday afternoon. After each meeting a light lunch and “hike to the hills” is a popular recreation. Much enthusiasm and interest have been shown in the various essay contests and bi-monthly Book Reviews. A friendly rivalry exists among the different High School Classes. ....lllllllllll[illllllllllllllllllllll|t— |iiiiiin PUBLIC SPEAKING “To try thy eloquence, now 'tie time. —Shakespeare Starting in September, 1921, the Public Speaking Club has shown a steady growth in both numbers and achievement. It enlists the interest of the student body and has brought out much latent talent. I p to the time of this writing, the 1923 Debating Team has successfully emulated the record of the 1922. I he term of meetings has been marked by interesting and well arranged programs— also several delightful social affairs. 1 he contests, from time to time, throughout the ten months, were: Debate, Oration, Extemporaneous Speaking, and Declamation. Page Forty-five THE FRENCH CLUB After the First Semester Exams, it “began to be rumored abroad” that the class in French would stage a play after Easter. Keen interest was at once awakened and soon rehearsels for the Soiree Dramatique were in order. On May 14 a beautiful drama, “Gendrillon,” was presented in Academy Auditorium and “La Jeune Elite Francaise” made its initial appearance. The CAST IN CENDRILLON success which attended the performance, confirmed the decision that the French had “come to stay.” The aim of the club is to encourage French conversation—and so the study of the language becomes a real value to the student. The members of the Cast enjoyed “rafraichissments” after the play. ' Hlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll SPANISH “La Clase Espanola” is under the tute- lage of Father Felician, C. M. F. For several years the students of the Acade- my have been privileged to have for their instructor in Spanish one of these able Professors and they have made excellent progress in “La Lengua de los Angeles.” Page Forty-fix 1 he purpose of “ The Masquers” club is to encourage the study and apprecia- tion of Dramatics. Attending other School Plays and, as far as possible, the bringing in of dramatic talent, enlivened the interest in 1 hespian art and afforded scope for dramatic criticism. It would be difficult to attribute the remarkable success of the Senior Play, Fabiola, to any particular factor. It was so well cast that no one seemed to be the “star”—rather a galaxy of stars! hngaging Janet, a clever farce given by the Seniors, was a pleasing presen- tation. 1 he Shepherdess of Lourdes on December eleventh—an inspiring drama!—and the Junior play, “Enter Brown, Exit Smith,” were among the best of the year’s plays. “Soiree Dramatique” presented by “La Jeune Elite Francaise”—marked the first production given at the Academy in a foreign language. I he ease and naturalness with which “ 1 he Masquers” adapt themselves to their various roles—gives a spontaneity to the work which is refreshing in school performances. Page Forty-seven ‘AU tcork, even cotton spinning, is noble. —Carlyle Perhaps one of the most enjoyable—and eminently practical—circles at S. J. A. is the “St. Anne’s Sewing Guild.” Three hours a week are given to needle- work. All resident students are required to “sign up” for this course. First comes darning, repairing, French seam, felled seam, outline stitch, button holes, and finally garment making. This course accomplished, art embroidery, knitting sweaters, crocheting, and the more elaborate fancy work are taught. The fine exhibit of needlework this year gives evidence of the efficiency of the instructors and the domesticity of the S. J. A. boarders. n Cmptp Catfjebral “ TxHERE is no silence like the silence here; Each pointed arch, each buttress whis- pers “Peace!” The light that (alls through pictures of the saints Is like a finger laid upon nnj lips. The very candles lighted at His feet Shine soft and still.... Here from the clangor of the busy street Come I to rest awhile .... May I take with me this thrice- blessed calm, And be to others what this temple is, A resting-place for weariness and pain An influence that breathes tranquillity.11 —MURIEL MITCHELL Page Forty-eight ATHLETICS PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEMONSTRATION When the “Year’s at the Spring” we know ’tis time for the Juvenile Operetta, but this year the Springtime Fantasy gave place to the Physical Education Demon- stration held out-of-doors on May 30th. The various folk-dances, in costume, as well as the aesthetic and organized work, presented a rhapsody of color, music, and graceful girls. BOYS’ BASEBALL The Boys’ Baseball this season was a pronounced success. With the nucleus already formed for next year, with consistent practice and competition, and if the team work and spirit be carried on—which it will—there is a rosy future ahead of the S. J. A. “twirlers.” BASKETBALL Almost the entire school came out for basketball. Seven interclass games were played. The Freshmen made the best showing. Page Forty-nine ATHLETICS—Continued TENNIS Tennis, “the Kin}' of Games,” always the major sport on the “hill top,’ ' gave evidence of its growing popularity by the increased number who entered the June tournament. GIRLS’ TRACK MEET Saturday, May 20th, was a thrilling day! A large crowd, lots of enthusiasm, and a fine record, was the reward of the first S. J. A. track meet. THE RIDING CLUB Horseback riding is one of the favorite athletic attractions this year. It is not only enjoyable but conducive to grace and poise—and splendid for health. In the early morning, while the air is crisp and bracing, or during recreation which follows class hours, the S. J. A. equestriennes, with their expert instructor, may be seen galloping “over the hills and far away.” Athletics form an important feature in the school curriculum. To it our girls owe their lithe, graceful bodies, and glowing good health—and our boys their well knit forms and muscular strength. Through Physical Education we develop honesty, fair play, sportsmanship, loyalty, school spirit, self- control, courage, and steadiness “under fire.” ...MlllHIIIIIIIIHIHIIII jgi ffill llllllllillinnillillliiiiii,, Page Fifty KATHERINE AND VIVIAN ‘STUMPED ALUMNAE The S. J. A. Alumnae Association has had a signal growth in numerical strength. The members have rallied in a loyal manner to the support of all School interests. During 1922 we have been Affiliated with the International Federation of Catholic Alumnae at Washington, D. C.—the first Alumnae Association in the State to seek membership to the Federation. The “Governor” will be elected at the June meeting. An informal reception was given the Class 1922 on the evening of Com- mencement Day. Paqt Fifty-one J 0 K e -S .
