FIF TY GOLDEN YEARS Emigration and its vital effect upon a peopIe's faith and moral fiber are certainly not new phenomena to the mind of the Church. They have been of great concern to Her for many years. One is not or should not be particularly surprised, there- fore, at such papal pronouncements as the Apostolic Consti- tution, Exsul Familiae, which established the importance of the ministry to the immigrant and his family, setting forth a program for such apostolic endeavors. It is with the wisdom of long experience that the Holy Father, Pius XII, warned priests to make every effort to prevent assimilation of the immigrant from taking place at the expense of natural rights and to the detriment of religious and moral values. The spirit and ideals of the Apostolate to the Immigrant, pro- claimed ecclesiastically as they are today, first practiced by Saint Peter in his ministry to the Jews of the Diaspora, were stamped deep and well in the hearts of the men who fifty years ago on a mid-July m ning of 1909 found them- selves by the grace and provide ce of God on the shores of Orchard Lake, at the new site what today is the Orchard Lake Seminary. d The Polish Seminary fou in 1885 by Father from that twenty-four years, providin for an effective vast numbers of new Polish-A a clergy language, culture, and tr di tive need for such pr' viceab1e lquarters.

Dearden Detroit The educative processes at the Orchard Lake Schools are in complete accord with the goal of eltective Christian education, the forming of a competent, culturally integrated, truly moral man. ln extension of this ideal, the Orchard Lake Schools, under the necessary patronage of the many Ordinaries who, through their appreciation of the supernatural needs of the other-lan- guage groups in their dioceses, have put their trust in these Schools, and provide for tomorrow's spiritual leadership of those who are united with the Eternal Christ in His Mystical Body.

The admin- istrative staff of the Orchard Lake Schools has thus realized in itself the spirit of the Liberal Arts and of the truly Catholic College. It is a spirit in which the administrative functions, including everything from the spiritual and academic life of the Orchard Laker to the continued maintenance of the physical establishment, integrate into an efficient unified whole. lt is this proved principle of administration that facilitates St. Mary's reaching the complete goal of Catholic education, the forming of an individual so fitted as to strive constantly toward moral and intellectual perfection.

When the foundation of an educa- tional system is a philosophy com- pletely subservient and dedicated to absolute truth, this opportunity becomes, truly, a responsibility . . . a responsibility not only towards the student community, but to soci- ety in general.

Organized into eleven chapters which are spread over the eastern and mid-western sections of this country, the Auxiliary engages in pilgrimages to the Seminary, local fund-raising benefits, and an active support of all Alumni proiects.

Uniting the entire Polonia, from 'Chicago to Philadelphia, Buffalo to Brooklyn, these fraternals have extended their generosity to the Seminary often and even annually.

A Friend, the philosophers tells us, is one who is en- grossed in a lasting and fervent love, a love shared mutually between the lover and his beloved. The Friends of the Seminary have embraced that picture to an extraordinary degree, for not only do they pour out their affection in an abiding manner to the Seminary, but they also give real token of that af- fection by trequent sacrifice and donation year the Seminary's Friends respo mail em. peal by means of an o ming manifestation of fidelity and osityi gs ,vlpll---as a promise of praye . p .rpliatq 'lot the Semina is gl- bodssa b llsfsm 'Mass offered aqarylyxlaaii af the Se ' ltar I 'LMI the constant and gratef -el' students who have made Olch Q k ir home.

Although the Moms' and Dads' Club of St. Mary's High School has been in existence for only the last seven years of the Seminary's fifty years of service here at Orchard Lake, the organization has developed into a truly driving force of activity, geared to the material aid ancl advancement of the school. The smartest of uniforms and equipment on the athletic fields, the finest of machines in the schools' Typing Room, and the latest of furnishings in a thoroughly modernized Campus Assembly Hall-all stand as tangible tribute to the interest, solicitude, and generosity of the Moms' and Dads' Club toward the Orchard Lake Schools.

The Seminary, that smith which points the way to the fires of purification, introduces the Semin- arian into the coals of preparation through soul-spurring years of training in virtue and knowledge. From this preparation the Seminarian is seized by the blazing love of the Holy Spirit, brought into the favor of God, permitted entry into the Levitical Camp. Here, God willing, he is found worthy to be a ministerial instrument in the remarkable work of salvation. This is the opus bonum of the Seminary.

Joseph Swastek interiects humor into his Church History Class while John Kline with apparent disconcern and Walter Florczyk with a smile further continue to probe their material. Though Cliff Ruskowski might appear to be making a hit recording for RCA or Decca, in reality he's only trying to improve his Polish pronunciation. St. Mary's College, through the whole and wonderfully complex being of the liberal arts, considers the student as an individual and not as a mere unit of an entire class. A regu- lated course of study, an integrated sphere of pertinent extra-curricular activity, and an all- enveloping spiritual atmosphere tend to make the collegiate a well-rounded personality. His stay at St. Mary's is designed as a period of maturation. His capacity for reflection is en- larged, his desire for positive contribution is given a firm basis. His education so informs him that he will be equipped with the ready poten- tial of adding Christian dimension to the ideas of the age. Yearbook Editor Ronald Modras, Dean of the College Fr.

Above all a sincere seminarian with an insatiable desire for scholastic achievement, Bud lives by the motto, Mens sana in corpore sane. The ordinary knack of giving his all-wheth- er in a library archives or out in a field, on a baseball diamond or in a Seminary study hall. Bud's quiet enthu- siasm, class spirit, resourcefulness, and courage of conviction have earned him a place of confidence and respect in our hearts. His relentless drive and eye for accuracy made him a natural for the key-position of Theme Editor of the '59 Eagle. Known for his probings into the intellectual pursuits, Bud is ever the individualist, lofty in his ideals and admired for them. JAMES GURZYNSKI Vice-President of the Toledo Club . . . Secretary of the SS. Cyril and Method- ius Apostolate. An authoritative litur- gist, the eccelesiastical knowledgeabil- ity of the man in the long, white sur- plice lit's liturgicalIJ reflects his effec- tive Benedictine training. As Secretary of the Secretary General, and an ac- complished Scholaite, Jim finds little time for his hobbies-collecting icons, giving singing lessons in his mad moments, and proving that he is defi- nitely not John's brother. Jim will al- ways be remembered for his character- istic walk, diligent doodling, spontan- eous laughter, insistence that a '53 Nash is a fine piece of machinery, and for being Father Maksimik's one-man a capella choir. essence of industry, he has the extra- 3 BERNARD GROCHOWSKI mented and ordered in his demeanor, er measure, a place for everything and everything in its place, could put a Prussian soldier to shame. But beneath this stern exterior can be found the fibers of a warm heart woven of dedi- cation and devotion to duty. Extolling endlessly the glories of the Bay State and playing the clarinet with profes- sional proficiency are two of Bernie's more individuating hallmarks. When not poring over his duties on the Eagle Staff, the big man from Webster, Massachusetts, is engaged in the all- absorbing task of writing his thesis on Beauty. JOHN GURZYNSKI As you never iudge a book by its cover, so also John cannot be ludged by his stern approach and erect car- riage, for despite these, he is as meek as a lamb. Characteristics of John are the long hours he spends poring over his books and his active participation in and love of sports. Because of his conservative disposition, John has won himself the title of Class Elder, which is not only a title, but a fact. ln his free time, he can be usually found in and about, around and near the Regis- trar's office, or listening to hi-fi music. Presently, John's chief occupation is that of prefect of the Ark. His calm ways and calmer manner of expression have deeply impressed his classmates and' all with whom he comes in contact. 'YT' GENESIS The boy becomes the man. What alchemy more sublime than this-the mystery of a seedling, the thundering of a heartbeat, the grandeur of a genesis. What adventure more breathtaking than that of becoming. What miracle more in- credible than transformation from the nakedness of potency to the awful array of act. The world neither marvels nor ad- mires, it is too entangled with the tinsel of novelty and sen- sation. The riddle of creation and birth and life proves far too formidable, and only the few relish the astonishing truth, only the poet, the saint, the philosopher. The boy becomes the man, the whole man, body and soul, intellect and will, nature and grace. It is a singular metamorphosis that has been wrought, evoked by nature and nature's God and You. You -more than the transiency of mortar and stone, an ideal, more than four fleeting years, a lifetime, more than merely a school, a Mother. Alma Mater! Look upon us, your charges of these last years. Look upon the change. The boy is no more, and in his stead stands the man, drunk utterly with the fullness of Life and the intensity of Love.

With his Slovak inter- polated Polish, Tony etfectively drives his point home. His appreciation for the Younger Generation and fond- ness of animals are only surmounted by his mania for the sacra, and di- recting the local Held otfice for the Propagation of the Faith is his chief avocation.

You plied the clay, worked it well, molded it knowingly with a two-thousand-year Christian tradition, a thousand-year Polish culture, a nascent spirit of Americana, an ageless chal- lenge to immortality. Look upon us, your sons. Rejoice to see that your work is done: heads held high, backs powerful and straight, eyes clear and unfearing to meet horizons new and altogether unadventured, hands knowing and ready to work out a God- given destiny. Rejoice to see a mind encompass the universe, a will defy any power less than omnipotence, a heart em- brace the Good which has become the Only Good. In only four years you worked your will. How quickly did they slip, those years, amid the distraction of the hours. How deftly did your fingers work to mold the clod from promise into art. You led us out of the desert of the everyday and into the realm of the good and great. You drew the bolt from the poets' treasuries: the splendor of Homer, the nuances of CASIMIR HEJKA Aside from acting as Secretary of the Seminary Mission Society, Mr. Green Thumb is the Procurator's right hand man. Possessing an ability to laugh anytime and anyplace, his presence is as welcome and refreshing as a desert oasis. Dubbed as the class's extra- verted introvert, he always has a kind remark, pleasant smile, and a willing heart open to anyone for the asking. Greatest among his assets is his ability to live a well-balanced and organized life. In chapel, class, or while recreat- ing, Laika has the happy faculty of participating wholeheartedly. With his delightful sense of humor and sincerity, Cass can make music of any situa tion, for he carries the whole world in his heart. JOSEPH KUKUCKA Perhaps one ef the calmest Seniors is Joe. He refuses to become perturbed by anyone or any situation with the one possible exception of Fr. Torzala's classes. Much of Joe's time is consumed tending to his duties as High School Prefect in the Barracks.

Walter Ziomba Faculty Advisor Kenneth lerczok Business Manager To most it can only be a Yearbook, a remarkably handsome one, true, but nevertheless, only the Yearbook of a rather unique institution, situated in south-east Michigan and serving a Church, a people, and a nation. To some it will prove to be the source of a wealth of memories, a means to recall nostolgically the years and months and days when life was a new, an adventurous, a rapturous thing. To others it will be the crystallization of a moment amid time eternity, a monument to a year and a school, the token of an ideal and the men who realize that ideal. To us, however, the hearts that made it possible, the hand which labored in its birth, nursed it, caressed it, and gave it life-it will ever remain more, dearer, infinitely and exquisitely vital. To us The 1959 Eagle will ever be a Love Story. How else could so titanic an amount of activity, work and sacrifices be possible, save as the result of a deep and pulsating, an all-absorb- ing love? From what other motive could there arise such determined iaws, straining muscles, resolute, indomitable wills. Love is the soul of this wondrous and intricate maze of motion that is the universe. Love is the reason why existence can become a tolerable, a ioyful, a truly delightful thing. Love is that surging, relentless, exalting mystery which gave us the why, wherefore, and wherewithal to offer as we did, so that today we may reioice as we do. The 1959 Eagle is the Love Story of many men and many hearts, each aglow with a flame all their own. lt is the story of men with a camera, trudging up and down stairs, in and throughout campus, braving schedules and frowns and slush-all for the better, the more significant, the more representative photograph, that they might show graphically to the world why it was they were in love. The Eagle is the story of writers, poring over microfilm, straining over dusty and worm-holed volumes, searching for the right word, the more colorful phrase, the most clear and concise means to tell the world why it was they were in love. The Eagle is the story of layout-men with rulers and pens, of photo-men with grease pencils and proportion wheels, of typists and business managers, assistants and editors-all in love and willing to dedicate themselves to tell a world why. lt was a demanding love, the Eagle, exacting of us hours and ease and idleness.

The Fourth Estate, which is nothing else but the title of that curious ilk of men who give themselves to the iournalism trade, plays no secondary role on the Orchard Lake Campus. Indeed, from almost the very first days publications of outstanding merits have originated from the pens, the typewriters, and presses of the Orchard Lake Schools. Among the oldest yet most vigorous of Orchard Lake publications is the Sodalis, a must for those who want to know what in the world's going n in regards to Catholic, Polish, and Polish-American news and t ught. The intelligentsia of the Polonia or any thinking American of P ish descent cannot but appreciate the ideological and Mario- logi al contribution of the Sodalis to Polish American letters. Fi years of good ole days provide an overwhelming amount of m terial for reminiscence for the Orchard Lake Schools' Alumni, and t provide just such reading matter as well as news and views on urrent Seminary affairs the campus provides the official rgan of the Orchard Lake Schools' Alumni Alumnus serves as an indispensable means for providing for informed, more devoted alumni.

The object in recent years of an enviable record of journalistic achievement, the Oracle is marked by a zest and a nose for news which provides its staff with a generous amount of valuable experience in the all vital realm of present-day communication. Among the most recent student periodical endeavors is the Surge, official literary organ of the Saint Mary's College Conrad Club, and foremost outlet for student efforts in the realm of poetry, fiction, and essay. Heralded from its very first appearance for its excellence in both content and format, the Surge is already heading toward promi- nence in inter-collegiate and university literary circles. Its aims and the realization of those aims merit praise no less than their impres- siveness. The tyro of campus publications, The Preplaker is the result of long foresight, thorough planning, and solid, hard work. As the official publication of, by, and for the High School Prep Man, his family and friends, The Preplaker is eloquent in proclaiming the iournalistic and literary talents of the younger Men of Saint Mary's. Its past, though brief, is indicative of a long future of excellence, providing, as it does, both source for pleasure and outlet for construction. As long as the communication of thought holds the vital place of import it does in contemporary America, the Orchard Lake Schools will be employing the pen in service of God, America, and its Polonia.

IN FRONT OF THE FOOTLIGHTS Throughout its five decades of educational and cultural contribution to both community and nation, the Orchard Lake campus has been noted for the outstanding calibre of its endeavors in the realm of dramatic presentation. Drama long has been part of the Orchard Lake tradition, a tradition embodied in a 1927 production of Zbojca Madej i .lego Polka or a 1959 version of Kolo Maciefu. The spring of 1958 witnessed a renascence of more serious theater after a brief period of dormancy, when the Saint Mary's Skarga Society presented Emmet Lavery's The First Legion. The acclaim enjoyed by the Skarga Society's production and due in great part to the directing abilities of Skarga Moderator Fr. John Gabalski was forthwith followed upon by an unprecedented theater first in the Detroit metropolitan area. The Polish Literary Society, under the direction of Fr. Zdzislaus Peszkow- ski, presented a triumphant production of Fredro's rolicking comedy of errors, Zemsta. The year 1959 and the Anniversary Celebrations of the Seminary's Fiftieth Year at Orchard Lake prompted further histrionic endeavor, as the Skarga Society aimed its thespian abilities toward the production of Herman Wouk's Pulitzer Prize winning drama, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. Accolades coupled with such modifiers as superb, brilliant, and triumphant, elicited even further campus accentua- tion on the constructive merits of theatrical presentation. And on Palm Sunday evening the Saint Mary's Prep men won honors for themselves through their sterling production of Leo Brady's Brother Orchid. The dramatic traditions of the Orchard Lake Schools go on. lt is heartening to realize that the men who stand before the footliahts to- day will be standing soon in pulpits, before altars, and behind rostrums, exhorting and leading men to God. i,.raf.s t ,fe s I .

Sazred Heart Society Gathered tor a proiect discussion of the Sacred Heart Society with moderator Fr, Anthony Moksimilc are officers Rev. Mr. Richard Sliwok, President, Lawrence Hoppe, Vice-President, Casimir Ladzinski, Secretary, James Corbett, Treasurer, Ted Gryga, Stanley Wrotny, and Robert Libero. There are a number of student organizations on the campus of Orchard Lake which are recognized to be the unique property of the Seminary Department. The essential nature of these activi- ties blends in with the general sphere of seminary life in order 'to produce a harmonious whole of theory and practice. They intro- duce the student into that mode of prayerful activity in which all true shepherds of souls must participate for an effective ministry. To repay in some inadequate though sincere manner for the great act of Redemption, the Seminarian at Orchard Lake, as a member of the Sacred Heart Society, senses the urgency of conse- crating himself to that Sacred Humanity which was offered as the lamb of sacrifice on the altar of Calvary. Through its emphasis on personal sanctification through public and private worship, the Sacred Heart Society intends to bring the Seminarian into the wonderful actuality of a world for the Sacred Heart. The Eucharistic League seeks to inculcate in the Seminarian a spirit of priestly charity based on the presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. ln his meditations before the Tabernacled Christ, in his moments of recollection after Mass, but especially 091.9 -8' in 513' Il- ill 0 Q 3' vv if DU' Eucharistic League Discussing the Eucharistic League ideals with Moder- ' ator Fr.

Mr. John Murzyn, President, Ted Olszewslzi, Secretary, Stanley Gerlock, Vice-President, and David Greka, Treasurer. in his realization of the magnitude of daily Mass and Communion, he gets to appreciate more and more that Eucharistic treasury in which the riches of Christianity are stored. Since its establishment in 1953 the Saints Cyril and Methodius Apostolate has pursued an ever increasing active program of prayer and information. The Apostolate seeks not only to help quicken the return of the Eastern Dissidents to the One Fold, but also to strengthen the bonds of unity existing between the Latin and Eastern Rites. The Apostolate sponsors public lectures, in- formative discussions, and student participation in the celebra- tion of the Eastern Liturgy. The Polish Literary Society was founded upon the realization that the wealth of Polish culture cannot be tapped fully in mere academic activities. To increase the seminarian's appreciation of this cultural wealth, the Society sponsors fine dramatic presenta- tions, public lectures on the accomplishments of famous Poles, and modest exhibits of contemporary Polish art. Also included in its activities are the Halloween and Paczki parties which are welcomed by all as an ably executed change of pace. Polish Literary Society Society Officers David Greka, Vice-President, Stanley Wrotny, Properties Custodian, Clifford Ruskowski, President, E. Bruno Warych, Secretary, Joseph Olinslli, Properties Custodian, and James Corbett, Treasurer, listen attentotively to the plans of their Moderator Fr. Zdzislaus Peszkowski.

With little fear of exaggeration, Mary may indeed be called the vital force behind all the activities abounding here at the Orchard Lake campus. Queen of the Poles and Patroness of our Schools, Queen of the Clergy as She is Queen of the Apostles, Mary is the vitalizing principle in a most special manner behind two phases of extra-curricular life particularly dear to the Orchard Lake seminarian, the Sodality and the Mission Society. Our Lady's Sodality is a religious body which has as its purpose fostering in its members an ardent devotion, reverence and tilial love towards the Blessed Virgin Mary. Striving with his fellows for a truly Marian degree of personal self-sanctification, the Orchard Lake Sodalist, whether in College or the Seminary, takes on a way of life for life, a path well-trod by myriads of souls over the years, an enviable tradition of ideals coupled with results. The font of many of the academic, religious, and chari- MISSIONS table proiects on campus, the Sodality serves well in engendering in the Seminarian a cognizance of the paramount importance of Mary's role as Mediatrix of all graces, in particular of the grace of a Priestly Vocation. Under Her title as Queen of the Apostles, Mary acts as pa- troness to the Orchard Lake Mission Societies, of High School, College, and Seminary.

The Catholic Church has perennially maintained a position of command in the realm of intellectual and scholarly endeavor The Church in America, however, has only recently reached a position, after Her phenomenal growth, which enables Her to concentrate on the importance of realizing that command here in the United States. Hence, a new surge of interest in the Intel lectual Life has overtaken Church Leaders in this country Here at St. Mary's College there awoke, in accordance with this national trend, the birth of three new organizations, the Aquinas Academy, the Skarga Society, and the Conrad Club, each in accord with Francis Bacon's dictum: Reading maketh the full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man the students. cover insights into Self-Activity.

Because the modern laity demands more of its priests today than ever before, the Academy searches into the folds of contemporary lite and its problems not so much to solve them as to acquaint the students with them Knowledge, not pedantry, is its raison d'etre. informal bi weekly meetings are held to discuss such subjects as Education Public Relations, Leadership, Imagination, and Culture.

Bruno Warych dis it .L x f .si T fig il 'lf f ' T Q f ov 'Wg cv ldeas are of consequence to no man unless publicly vocalized. And the vocation of the priesthood constantly demands public speaking. Speech theory can make a man a theoretical speaker, but in the pulpit, practice is what distinguishes him. The Skarga Society affords St. Mary's students iust that practice. Named after the Reverend Peter Skarga, one of Poland's greatest orators, the Society meets bi-weekly for practice in public speaking. Formal presentations, such as interpretative reading, drama, debate, and oratory, not only afford the individual members with the much needed experience, but also serve as an ex- pression of St. Mary's to the public. Besides the pulpit the most influential medium of communica- tion of God's truth for the priest is the written word, but writing, like speech, demands practice. For the practical sense of exposi- tion, with the consideration for creative flair, the Conrad Club of St. Mary's was founded. Club activities climax in the publica- tion of the Club's official literary organ, the Surge, a tri-monthly magazine. The theme of education of St. Mary's is the whole man. In fulfillment of America's and the Church's need for intellectuals, St. Mary's attempts to fill the ranks with men using all their God- given capabilities. his . - iff?

David of old rejoiced with the ioy of non-restraint and, no longer being able to contain himself, songs of ioy and praise burst forth from his God-blessed lips. This year as the Orchard Lake Schools celebrate their fiftieth anniversary at Orchard Lake the seams of every department break forth with song, song that has been at the very roots of the Orchard Lake tradition. Song has always been in every glad heart, the very beat of which is the hum of perservering life. In the spirit of the solemn gladness of David the Psalmist, the Seminarians have the Schola Cantorum which reioices with the Church in Her Liturgy and brings the Orchard Lake tradition to the myriads of persons who have heard her song during the past twenty-one years on T.V., radio, and records. Thousands upon thousands of persons both in America and Europe have reioiced in the songs of Orchard Lake. Their sound goes out over all the earth. The Campus Band, under the direction of Fr. Henry Waraksa, gather for a group photo shortly after the resounding success of the annual Campus Christmas Musicale. 128 In keeping with this Orchard Lake tradition the College and High School in consonance exclaim, My heart rejoices in the Lord and in their participation of this vocal tradition of glad- ness-with-song, the College Choir and High School Glee Club add to the musical sparkle of the Christmas Musicale and Spring Concert and many other outside performances with their light, gay and colorful music. Praise Him with the sounding horn, plucked string, and crashing symbols. The Music Men of Orchard Lake ioin the dancing mounts and clapping seas with their drums and horns and tinkling bells which they united in the Senior Band, adding to the song and color and vibrance of all the musical productions of the Orchard Lake Schools. Old men together with children, let them sing praise to the name of the Lord. The Psalmist cries, Let all the earth sing to the Lord, and all of Orchard Lake erupts in the volcanic thunder of music. l 1 1 -ti-,frat klyff il The College a Capella Choir rendered a sterling performance at the Christmas Concert under the direction of Robert Kaszynski. x 4 A- 'IF Here's the way it should go.

Activity -the very sound of the word suggests a busy, scurry- ing to-do. When activity has a solid spiritual core as its source, however, cooperation as its means, and construction as its aim, it becomes a means to perfecting the oft-atrophied elements in a man's personality, an opportunity to benefit his fellows' com- mon good, and a preparation for the complicated structure of modern-day business and social interrelationships. These are but the remote results which accrue to the men of Saint Mary's from their membership in one or more of the following organizations. As both a nationwide fraternal and insurance group, the Polish Roman Catholic Union, the largest Polish-Catholic organi- zation in America, is represented at Orchard Lake by Group 798. As sponsors of student aid funds, the notional organization of the P.R.C.U. has enabled many students to acquire the education which otherwise might have proved financially impossible. Also a fraternal organization, but only local in scope, the Phi Gamma Chi Fraternity maintains for itself ideals of a different nature. Fellowship and Good Cheer have become both its reputation and tradition, providing the Freshman and Sophomore 'College men with ample opportunity for both special and cul- tural activity. The outings, proiects, and parties sponsored by the Frat have served to cement many a lasting bond of friend- ship and appreciation among the men of Orchard Lake. Student government combined with cooperation is only one of the goals that has been achieved by the Student Council of Saint Mary's Preparatory. Throughout its four short years of existence, the Student Council has faithfully pursued the exacting A glorious history of the Frat proves ab- sorbing to Adrian Benoit, Secretary, Tom Grubba, Treasurer, Raymond Bobrowski, President, Joe Nogas, Sgt.-at-Arms, and Floyd R0leW5ki, Vice-President. requirements of a true student parliament, functioning as the initiative and dynamic force behind many of the projects and programs of the younger men on campus. Activity among the younger prepmen at Orchard Lake often takes the form of useful employment of the manual faculties, and this accompanied by the sound of coping saws and the smell of freshly cut wood. The Craft Club of St. Mary's Preparatory results not only in a host of model boats, planes, autos, and such artifacts, but more important in a realization and appreciation of practical and creative manual labor. Creativity in the iunior prepman is not limited in outlet to only the Craft Club. Providing means and encouragement for the perfection of thespian, oratorical, and imaginative abilities of the Arkers is the Little Theater. Permitting its members to receive a better than theoretical insight into the world of play-acting, the Little Theater proves both entertaining and profitable not only to the Noah's Ark community, but to the entire campus.

O The Orchard Lake Schools place a necessary emphasis on the intellectual, cultural, and recreational aspects of the student's life independent of the classroom. They supply these needs simul- taneously, often without the student realizing it, by such Campus Services as the Library, the Campus Bookstore, the Audio-Visual Department, and the Record Shop. Few schools of comparative size can boast of as modern and well-equipped Library as that of the Orchard Lake Schools. The physical plant itself arouses those sensible to beauty, as it com- mands its view on the broad slope overlooking the Lake. The storehouse of the ideas of the great minds of the world certainly whets the intellect. And in the field of Polish Literature, the Library serves as a titting symbol of Orchard Lake's attempts to preserve everything that is best in Polish culture. Intellectual stimulation comes in the classroom, but playing a secondary, albeit necessary part in the moulding of thinking men, stands the Campus Bookstore, supplier of textbooks before, bluebooks during, and aspirins after. You name it, and they either have it or will get it for you. An integral part of that Library Circulation Staff: C. Ladzinski, A. Jablonowski, T. Skotek, D. Melczek, J. Corbett, T. Nowicki, T.

Intellectual development without recreational facilities is again not the ideal of Christian Education. And recreation is not limited to the athletic field. Many a Saturday night, building prefects surrender their charges, armed with candy bars and potato chips, to the pleasantly familiar offerings of the Audio- Visual Department. Hollywood's time-worn and contemporaries, oftimes both on the same bill, are carefully selected to insure an evening of enioyment away from the books. The comparatively new addition to Orchard Lake's Campus Services is the Record Shop. Cultural or recreational, depending on your age, rank, and status, supplying J. Mathis or J. Bach, the Shop is one of the most popular and certainly liveliest places on Campus. Adjoining the offices of the Campus Music Depart- ment, it emphasizes a greater appreciation for the musical ex- pression of the worldfs great composers, while offering, at the same time, popular discs to the younger set of the Campus. These intellectual, cultural, and recreational facilities, so closely interrelated, work imperceptibly yet ever effectively in developing the student to his full potential.

They also serve who only stand and wait, penned poet John Milton. Here at Orchard Lake, service demands much more than standing and waiting, it demands action and whole-hearted effort. From early morning to late evening, the Orchard Lake Schools are the scene of the unceasing activity necessary for the smooth opera- tion and function of an Institution its size. Each day on the Campus begins with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. It is a privilege to aid in the preparation of the Sacrifice, and behind sacristy doors working ever for the greater Glory of God are the Campus Sacristans, caring for the necessities of reli- gious functions. Unless a student leave part of himself here at Orchard Lake, he can never begin to know just what it means. The students who serve as Office Personnel of the Procurator's, Dean's, Secretary-General's, Registrar's, and Alumni Departments of the Institution are privi- leged because they truly learn what Orchard Lake means, because they are called upon each day to give of their time, effort and talent for their school. The brisk and clear air of the lake country in which Orchard Lake is situated is certainly conducive to health, but to protect health, should sickness arrive, stands the ever-ready Campus ln- . k3: ...?SwTL,?g-whim F .mqkhgri 'f'gf'a. .

Students constantly make iokes about Orchard Lake's food-from the fried chicken to the traditional fond somewhat infamousi Three K's Ckapusta, kielbasa, and kartoflej. But for those who wish to pamper their sweet tooth, the Campus Canteens are the most popular. These students' hangouts oHer the traditional ice cream, candy, and chips, along with active discussion on everything 'from politics to school developments. There is a tremendous amount of work required to keep an insti- tution the size of Orchard Lake functioning smoothly. Although the students of each department aid in the task, some work, of its very nature, demands full-time devotion. The Felician sisters and the people who work untiringly in the dining halls, the laundry, and on the campus grounds are seldom praised or recognized. And yet, without their zealous effort, the School work could not go on. Many are the hands working tirelessly and all-too-often thankless- ly for the benefit of the Orchard Lake ideal.

Although the Orchard Lake Schools do not encompass the territory ot a Rome, a suitable analogy can be drawn from the fact that the Orchard Lake student body is representative of several and diverse sections of the United States. In virtue of these backgrounds and a salutary home-town loyalty, the men ot Orchard Lake have banded together into Metro- politan Clubs to promote good cheer, school spirit, and strong ties between their Alma Mater and the folks back home. The already present fruits of these close bonds are the seasonal activities and Christmas plays, dinners and banquets which result in many fine and various expressions of Polish Culture and Tradition in America. Thus the last six years have proved to be eventful in bringing New York State into a more active contact with the Orchard Lake Schools through the eftorts of the men from the Buffalo and Syracuse Dioceses united in the Empire State Club.

Stan Krogulecki Glenn Hass Mil!! Wikflif The first football game of the 1958 season pitted the Eaglets against St. Mary's of Royal Oak at the latter's home field. The Orchard Lakers, confident of victory, showed a hard-charging line and quick backfield. On the first play from scrimmage, fullback Bill Krul sprinted 77 yards to paydirt and Frank Bartos converted giving the Eaglets the lead, which they never relinquished. ln the second quarter Orchard Lake staged a 48 yard drive which was capped by a four yard touchdown dash by dynamic Bill Krul. In the second half SMOL's Mike Wiktor plucked a Royal Oak fumble out of mid-air and scampered 42 yards to paydirt. Later in the half Bob Argasinski recovered a blocked punt and ran 15 yards for OL's final touchdown of the afternoon. Royal Oak managed one tally, and the final score read OL 27-RO 6. On October 5, the Eaglet football squad played host to the Ravens of St. Benedict, who boasted an undefeated record in two games. St. Ben's stunned the Eaglets with three quick touchdowns in the first two periods of play. The second half of the game produced some savage line play by both teams. Time and time again St. Mary's marched up field only to have their attempts frustrated by a stout Raven defense. The final half went scoreless and St. Ben's went home with a 19-0 victory. ln the third football game of the season St. Mary's met a powerful St. Fred's team at Wisner Stadium in Pontiac. The determined Eaglets held the Rams at bay for one half, but ran out of gas in the final two quarters. St. Fred's exploded with a quick succession of touchdowns to walk off with a 28-0 win. The following Sunday St. Mary's met the Dales of St. James in Ferndale. The Eaglets completely dominated the first half of play. Stan Krogulecki connected beautifully Frank Bartos .los Bator with Milt Woitowicz on a 46 yard pass play to put SMOL out in front. Although moving the ball at will, the Eaglets' offense was unable to amass more points. The Dales sneaked across a surprise touchdown in the final seconds of the half. Quarterback Tony Kostecki powered across from the one and Bill Krul slanted into the end zone from eight yards out in the third quarter. St. Mary's added an- other in the fourth when the Krogulecki-Woitowicz com- bination clicked again on a 23 yard pass. The final result -a 24-7 victory for St. Mary's. The last three games of the season ended surprisingly enough, in defeats. St. Mike's toppled the Eaglets at the Lake l2-6 by virtue of two intercepted passes which resulted directly in touchdowns for the Mikemen. St. Mary's only tally came on a pass from Krogulecki to Woitowicz. The Eaglets threatened late in the game but fumbled on the St. Mike's two yard line. The SMOL gridders never did get started against St. Rita's and dropped a 13-0 decision. In the final game of the season St. Clement's topped the Eaglets 26-20, scoring the deciding TD in the waning sec- onds of the game. St. Mary's scores all came in the first half. Stan Krogulecki fired to left half Glenn Hass who scampered 30 yards to paydirt. Krogulecki hit Mike Wiktor with another TD pass and Ted Barszczewski skirted end for eight yards to complete St. Mary's scoring. The half-time score read 20-20. The second half devel- oped into a stalemate, neither team being able to pierce the other's defense until St. Clem's scored in the final seconds. Bob Argasinski and Mike Wiktor gained recognition on several all-star teams for their outstanding play throughout the season.

The Eaglet Harriers in their 1958 season made a valiant effort to keep up their clean slate against Catholic League competi- tion, but their opponents proved too tough. Before meeting their first Catholic opposition the O.L. Harriers dropped their first three meets to powerful competition: West Bloomfield 26-31, Walled Lake 25-36, and River Rouge 18-40. The first Catholic League encounter was with the Blueiays of St. Joseph's, whom the Eaglets defeated handily 26-31. St. Mary's incurred its first loss to a Catholic League team dropping a meet to De LaSalle 26-30. The Eaglets dumped Oak Park 16-48 and Catholic Central 23-36. Next on the agenda was the Catholic Invitational at Palmer Park. In the Reserve run, the Eaglets displayed great strength by defeating Catholic Central, St. Joe's, U of D High, and De LaSalle. Tom Callan, a freshman, placed first for St. Mary's with an 11:51 clocking. ln the main event, however, the Eaglet Harriers were forced to settle for third place. Chet Wlod- kowski placed fifth with a time of 11:45. ln the next meet, against U of D High, the St. Mary's squad lost 31-24, even though captain, Chet Wlodkowski, set a new school record, 1O:37.5. The Eaglets lost their next two meets, to Walled Lake 19-44, and the other to Lutheran West 27-28. ln the last meet against Lutheran West Wlodkowski broke his newly-set school mark with a blistering 10:26.5, the fastest ever run by an OL runner, and the fastest ever recorded on the OL track.

Paced by Captain Chet Wlodkowski, the Eaglets then proceeded to stymie three successive league opponents before the Christmas holiday break. St. Mary's of Royal Oak fell to an Eaglet barrage 53-33, and St. Michael's and St. Clement's also bowed, 44-30 and 53-34. The first game after the holidays with St. Freder- ick's was a clash between two determined and unbeaten teams, tied for first place in the league race. With the score tied T9-T9 at the end of three quar- ters, the Red and White staged a T7-point final quarter rally to cop a win, going away 36-27. The upsurging Eaglets next bombed both St. Rita's and St. James', before St. Benedict's inflicted a surprising and heart-breaking 32-31 loss. Undaunted St. Mary's then squeezed past Royal Oak St. Mary's and St. Michael's in return engagements 44-40 and 49-40. The Eaglets, however, soon regained their former sharpness in wins over St. Stanislaus' and St. Clement's by runaway scores of 56-27 and 62-25. Meanwhile St. Frederick's eliminated a possible league tie by defeating St. Benedict's to give both of the above teams two losses each. St. Mary's with only one loss became -'L' Fr.

The Eaglet cagers primed for the Catholic League tournament with a game against St. Andrew's but dropped this one 47-44. Orchard Lake drew St. Florian's, East Side First Division Champs, in the first game of the tourna- ment. The Lancers walked off with a 57-35 victory. In the first consolation game St. Mary's blew a 32-19 half-time lead and lost 53-51 to Ann Arbor St. Thomas'. The Eaglets finally ended the victory famine with a 51-41 win over All Saints. ln two warmup games before the District tournament the Red and White shellacked St. Hedwig's 67-44 and Sweetest Heart of Mary 55-38, but for the first time in four years St. Mary's failed to win the district tournament. St. Fred's avenging its earlier loss copped a 42-37 overtime decision at Pontiac High. The overall season record was a more than creditable 14-5 mark. Chet Wlodkowski was consistently outstanding throughout the year and amassed 348 points for an average of 18.3 points per game. His scoring ability and remarkable all-around play secured for him recognition on many an all- Catholic squad.

BASKETBALL RESERVES An inexperienced but eager Eaglet Junior Varsity bore through twelve heated contests but came out with victories in only four of their trials. The win column might have easily been doubled, since more than a few of the defeats were close, heart-breaking affairs with the Eaglets barely on the wrong side of the fence. Royal Oak just barely squeezed by the Reserves when a last quarter surge tumbled them three points into a victory, 35 to 32. St. James' of Ferndale like- wise staged a storybook comeback, leaving St. Mary's on the short end of a 38 to 33 score. Later season victories over the Eaglets by St. Mike's and St. Stan's were similar 2 point margin defeats, St. Mike's beating the Red and Whites 34 to 32 and St. Stan's 24 to 22. The records can't tell the entire story. St. Mary's Junior Varsity played exciting, if not always masterful, Basketball. The Junior Eaglets well deserve recognition for an outstanding and consistent, a fighting spirit. Among these sparkplugs especially noteworthy as prospects are Larry Sissen and Conrad Fiddler.

St. Mary's then evened its record by edging Royal Oak St. Mary's 3-2, led by Marty Fryt, Bob Fryt, and Frank Maikowski. The remaining matches were played ac- cording to the total stroke system of scoring. Paced by Bob Fryt's 40 and his brother Marty's 42, St. Mary's downed St. Mike's 'I75-186.

The Eaglet track team, exceptionally strong in the field events, proved themselves worthy of honor throughout the 1958 season, placed second in the Class C regionals, fifth in the Catholic Invitationals, and took two places, a first and fifth, in the State Finals. In their first appearance on the cinder path, on April 'l, the Eaglets suffered their first defeat of the season to De LaSalle. ln this meet the school record for the shotput, formerly 46 feet, 6 inches, was broken by Joe Waluk with f 1 I JI mi inn!! Coach Rev. John Gobalski a tremendous toss of 50 feet 11 inches. Bouncing back in their meet against Oak Park, the Eaglets glided to an easy victory, 77-lf4-31-3f4. The next encounter brought the Eaglets against the thinclads of St. Michael's, who also proved no match for the strong Saint Mary's squad. The final tally was 76-'lf2-32-1f2. St. Joe's topped the Eaglets 63-5f6-45-'l f6. But SMOL won the next two meets, both triangulars, over Oak Park and Bloomfield Hills in the first and Mt.

Stan Krogulecki tried hard to lead St. Mary's to victory in the season's opener against St. Mary's of Royal Oak, but the Eaglets went down to a 2 to l defeat. On the mound, Kroger allowed only four hits, walked seven, and fanned four. At bat, he had two of his team's six hits and drove in the only run. Scoring six runs in the first inning, SMOL defeated St. Benedict's of Highland Park, 9 to 4, in the second game. Ken Kowalski led the Eaglets' 13-hit attack with three hits and three RBl's. Terry Raymond contributed two singles and Larry lminski belted a home run for the winners. Tony Choi- nowski, allowing only four hits in five innings, was credited with the win. A home run by Tony Choinowski with 2 teammates aboard in the third inning gave the Eaglets a victory over St. Rita's, which put the Lakers over the .500 mark for the first time in the season. Stan Krogulecki, the winning pitcher, fanned twelve and allowed no passes in a masterful per- formance. Stan Krogulecki posted his second straight victory as SMOL downed St. Clement's of Centerline, 6 to 'I. He fanned seven batters and walked two, as the Eaglets boosted their record to 3-l. St. Mary's combed losing hurler Bob Weber for eleven hits, including three triples. Ron Moliewski had one of the three baggers and two singles for a perfect day at bat. He drove in three runs. The Eaglets posted another victory as they routed St. Frederick's of Pontiac, 12 to 'l. The winners scored in every inning except the sixth. Tony Choinowski, Frank Prelewicz, and Stan Moniuszko had two safeties apiece in St. Mary's 'l'I-hit attack. Choinowski bagged his second homer of the season. Krogulecki was the winning pitcher, though he had to be removed in the fifth when he was struck in the arm by a line drive. He allowed only one hit, fanned seven batters, and walked only three. In their next encounter, the Eaglets dropped one to St. James of Ferndale, 6 to 4. The winners were outhit, 6 to 5, but four St. Mary's errors proved costly. St. Mary's was eliminated from the Suburban Catholic League race when it lost to St. Mary's of Royal Oak by a 4 to 3 score. An Orchard Lake triumph would have put the two clubs into a tie for first place. The Lakers outhit the winners, 8 to 6, but did not get the necessary clutch blows. Royal Oak came up with a two-run rally in the sixth to erase a one-run deficit. Stan Krogulecki went all the way for the losers, fanning six batters and walking one. In a Sunday game against St. Benedict's, the Eaglets dropped a tough one by the score of 3 to 1. Tony Choi- nowski pitched the entire game, allowing three runs on three hits and four errors. ln the season's final game the Lakers swamped St. Fred's, 'I3 to 1, Krogulecki annexing his fourth victory. The leading batter for the season was Terry Raymond with 9 hits in 24 trips to the plate for a .375 average. Stan Krogulecki was the season's leading pitcher with a 4 to 3 record. He fanned 63 throughout the season, and also boasted a .314 batting average. Tony Choinowski led in the RBI department with 10. Rev.

He watched from a distance, searching their weathered faces. He studied their hands, calloused but quick, skilled in but one science: their lines, nets, and scaling knives. He warmed to hear their speech, simple, as were their lives. Only an occasional flash of affection or anger betrayed the unpredictable nature of their Semitic souls, not too dissimilar to the lake by which they lived. lngenuous and artless-these fishermen, and yet they changed two thousand years of history with one simple act. He drew close, and they left their nets. All He had said was, Come, Follow Me. ln just this way, endearing in its humanity, over- whelming in its divinity, .Jesus Christ chose His first disciples. Peter, Andrew, James, and John became Semi- narians. Gathered about the person of the God made Man, they entered upon their training for Priesthood. Future priests in the world's first Seminary. They abandoned their nets-these twelve apostolic clerics-and only upon occasion returned to them, but they never really left their lake. Their Master's one mission was to impart to them the good news and prepare them to proclaim it, and He saw fit to effect this task upon and around the very shores they knew as home, the Lake of Genesareth, the Sea of Galilee. On these shores He promised to make them Fishers of Men, preached Blessed are the meek, the poor, the merciful. Here He multiplied the loaves and promised the Eucha- rist, calmed the tempest, and walked the waters, cured the blind, the mute, the maimed. Here beside Lake Genesareth the first priests were blessed with a vocation, here they were molded by His hands that they might be worthy of it. They pressed in about Him. Instruction, formation-in the first Seminary-on the shores of a lake. Two thousand years later and thousands more of miles away, another Seminary stands--on the shores of a lake. As before, young men gather together beside the waters, and still He watches them, searching their faces, studying their hands, smiling to hear the simplicity of their speech. Their names are still Peter and Andrew, James, John, Stanley, and Richard, Kenneth, and Tom. They press in about Him and hear Him promise, Blessed are the meek, the poor, the merciful. They learn the comfort of Prayer, the strength of Humility, the beauty of Purity, and the power of Grace. This Seminary today on the shores of a lake-how remarkably similar it is to the one at Genesareth. Little more than the name has changed. Today not Genesa- reth, but Orchard Lake. Unique, indeed,-this Seminary beside a lake. It nestles peaceful in its obscurity, yet the paths to its gates have been worn deep and wide. As even before, the pilgrims come from far. They come-often out of curiosity, more often out of love, some because they feel the attracting echo of the call: Come, Follow Me. They come-from Brooklyn, Hamtramck, West Virginia and Rhode Island, from Massachusetts, Minnesota, Michi- gan, and Maine. They come to Orchard Lake-to hear His words and see His face. He calls them to Himself- beside the lake. For fifty years now Seminarians, future priests, have gathered beside the shores of Orchard Lake about the silent and Eucharistic person of Jesus Christ. Here they have been molded and plied in much the some knowing and loving manner as used Our Lord with His fishermen -disciples. Here they found a home, an Alma Mater, a place at their Master's feet. Fifty-years-two thousand priests-five thousand Chris- tian lay-leaders in Medicine, Law, Government, and the Arts-these have been the history and contributions of the Orchard Lake Schools. Orchard Lake is this-and more. Orchard Lake is legend, folklore, and color. It is priests with the fire of a Jogues, Indians with the spirit of Pontiac, pioneers with the daring of a Marquette. Orchard Lake is the faint and distant echo of a rifle crack, the volley of a cannon, or the smart click of a cadet's disciplined heels. It is cooperation, construction, and community achievement. Orchard Lake is a Semi- nary and the half century of its service and dedication. lt is a campus, rolling and green, weaving mid buildings rugged and military, substantial in mien. It is the Ark and the Barracks, the Grotto and the gardens, a Library bathed in sunshine and a Class Building wrapped with ivy. It is the promise of a Shrine-a symbol in stone of a people's Thanksgiving. ' W 5.5 f.

The island still retains the name which was given to it by the early Indians: Me-nah-sa-gor-ning -Apple Place. This is the isle where fact and fiction have formed fame and legend-the beautiful isle of some- where, to which the famous Ottawa Chief Pontiac fled after his betrayal at Fort Detroit. This is an isle of legend, for it is related that long before the memory of the tribe, a young maiden there became insane upon the death of the young chief to whom she was betrothed. Escaping from her guardians she would cross to the shore where he was buried, re- turn to the island bringing his remains, and place them where his lodge formerly stood. Wearied of this utter and fantastic devotion, the tribe killed her at the advice of the medicine man. Offended by this profanity, the Great Spirit vowed his intention to destroy the entire tribe, and gave the Indian maiden complete power over it. The maiden could assume her material form anytime she so desired between sunset and sunrise, and could compel the attendance of the tribe by beating the Indian drum. At this signal the warriors would await her arrival with the body of her dead chief. They would then carry him to the council fire, and gather around to watch her caress him. Later she would bear him back to his burial place on shore. This is the legend which circulated among the tribes of the Chippewa, Potowa- tomi, Oiibway, Ottawa, and Algonquin Indians, and which remains to this day. The fact and fame of this island lies in its thrilling adventure story of Chief Pontiac. From among all of the aforementioned tribes, the chief was elected from that of the Ottawa. It was to this tribe that Pontiac was born in 1720. Selected to govern those tribes which lived in the Michigan, Ohio and Illinois area, he was pre- eminently endowed with outstanding courage, resolution, address, and eloquence, and it was chiefly to these characteristics, urged to their highest activity by a vehement ambition, that he owed his greatness. He was a thorough savage, with a wider range of intelligence than those around him, but shared all their passion and preiudices, their fierceness and treachery. The Indians at that time were at peace with each other, and Pontiac had the largest domain and greatest authority of any Indian chief on our continent. He reigned in an air of majesty and princely grandeur and was greatly hon- ored and revered by his subiects. When in 1762, the Indians learned that England was at war with Spain, Chief Pontiac knew that here was the opportunity for which he and his warriors had been awaiting. Pontiac--primarily wished to have his subjects considered as sovereign nations allied with the French and sought constantly to restore the relative independ- ence enioyed by the western Indians. With the help of the French, he hoped to force the British to change their fundamental principles toward peoples of inferior culture. Assisted now by them, Pontiac and his tribes were in a position to force the English to retreat and remain free of British control. In the latter part of 1762, Pontiac sent ambassadors to the various Indian tribes in Ohio and southward to the mouth of the Mississippi in an attempt to unite all the tribes for a formal and simultaneous attack against the British. Succeeding in this, Pontiac returned to Apple Island and there in his war councils laid the strategy for his attack. He reserved for himself the seige of Fort Detroit, which was considered the strongest and most important. This was the most formidable Indian con- spiracy that the English-speaking people ever faced. Pontiac was to enter Fort Detroit with a selected group of warriors under the pretense of a grand council with Maior Gladwin, then in charge of the fort. Some were to follow as if to do trading, while others were to surround the Fort. But the intended treachery of Pontiac was related by a squaw to Maior Gladwin and on the ap- pointed day, May 7, 1763, when Pontiac escorted his warriors to the Fort, he surmized that his scheme had been exposed. Angered, he attacked all the villages of settlers outside of the Fort, and successively one after another fell into the hands of the Indians. Fort Detroit was one of the three forts of the area Pontiac failed to capture by storm, and in the end he was forced to acknowledge the supremacy of the British over the western territories. Later Pontiac returned to Apple Island where he dwelt with his people in peace, a leader unbroken in spirit and bravery. There, on this emerald isle encircled by a diamond of sparkling water, on this magnificent jewel fashioned by nature. Chief Pontiac retired to live the few remaining years of his fascinating and treacher- ous life. His brilliant career was suddenly and unex- pectedly halted when he was killed in 1769, in Illinois while doing some trading. Legend falsely maintains that the body of this war-like chieftain was returned and layed to rest on Pontiac's Mound situated in the center of Apple Island. It is commonly believed, however, that his historic grave is in Cahskia, Illinois. Upon his death the numerous and various tribes which had gath- ered under him gradually began to break up and dis- perse, moving from the wooded island and the lake, to other places in quest of new adventures and surround- ings. When later white people settled in this area, all of the Indians had disappeared, and the only remnants and traces which remained, significant of the Indians who were once so populous, were the Indian burial grounds located on the high northern bank of the lake and the old gnorled apple trees planted on the island by the Indians long ago. Long since have the waters of this renowned lake, dotted with lilies in the summer and crystalled with ice in winter, felt the smooth and silent dip of the paddle, and the easy movement of the Indian canoe gliding over its sparkling surface. Gone are the warriors of old who gave to this forest primeval the history and fame which it now proudly and regally bears in an undying tradition. Gone are the wigwams which reposed in the shade of the high old oaks on the banks of Orchard Lake. All is gone which characterized the multitude and population of the Indian who inhabited the richly dec- orated countryside of this area. Occasionally a few material elements are uncovered by sight-seers or campers who find the location ideal for relaxation or point of interest. ln recent years, skeletal remains of Indians, dating back to centuries ago, have been acci- dentally uncovered in excavation proiects. Occasionally arrow-heads, hatchets, and other Indian war tools are discovered on the Island by those who seek new facts concerning its historical grandeur and beauty. Only these relics now remain as data of the Indians who have since departed, but, in departing, have left in their wake a treasure of beauty and richness unsur- passed by any tribe on any continent. These were the Indians, united under the most princely chief of all times--Pontiac-who have supplied Apple Island and Orchard Lake with the grandeur which they claim in the research of history. The Indians are gone but their memory lives after them, a memory which cannot be erased in time. It is due to this memory that the legend and fame of the Island lives on-the legend and fame of Me-nah-sa-gor-ning. Lawrence Pashak Q i 5. ' at it 4? IIX 's -, V ' ,T-,' Rx!

The first Village mmissioners were elected with William H. Morley as sident and Joseph P. Brooks, Clerk. Posi- tions on the Bo were assumed by Edward M. Horton, William H. Bouma, rederick S. Strong, and Loren C. Bow. Clarence Kit rson became Chief of Police, while Floyd Blakeslee fille e post of Village Attorney. This act of self-protection inst the disorderliness and carelessness of the visitors ga legal sanction to the closing of the carnival and the p ervation of the peaceful and residential mien of the gro community. Soon the residential atmosphere engender by the constructive village ordinances attracted new re ents to the area. Whenever a new family would move I the Village, the Friends of the Village would sponsor a get-acquainted party to welcome them. Undoubtedly, a great portion of the success of these parties was credited to the serving of Wilson's tasty home-made root beer. The Wilson home on Seminary Road was the cen- ter of more than a few of these warm social gatherings. As the village continued to grow in population, it likewise expanded in its facilities. The picturesque and even provincial Orchard Lake, painted in quaint colors by Mr. Willis Ward in his book Orchard Lake and Its Island, gradually transformed into a bustling, well- ordered, small but dynamic community. Today it boasts some three hundred permanent resident families, ap- proximately 1,200 people. It is dotted with such colorful landmarks as the Summers' home built by Mr. Ward for his family, with a panoramic view of both Cass and Orchard Lakes and extraordinary for the multiplicity of its windows, rooms, and gables. A Monument, placed at the corner of Indian Trail and Commerce Road, marks the fact that Orchard Lake was a center and home for Indian activities. The boathouse on the south side of the Lake, the country club on the west, the many road signs with their Indian arrow-head features, the Village Office at Long Lake Road and Orchard Lake Road, the painted Indian Warrior standing guard over Wilkins' Restaurant XilF,,si'l x The long and sandy shore of Orchard Lake became a playground for Sunday picnickers. -these all contribute to the picturesqueness of Orchard Lake. Mr. Fred J. Walls at present is President of the Village Commission and Mrs. Lucille Smith acts as Clerk. The Commissioners are Charles M. Neuman, Edwin M. Douglas, Alfred L. Boegehold, John C. Hall and Thomas E. McDonnell. Elmer E. Peters is Chief of Police, Stewart Underhill serves as Building Commissioner, while Mrs. John Crane is Assistant Clerk. Covering an area of approximately 2,400 acres, 1,100 of which are covered by lake waters, the Village of Orchard Lake has made great strides toward the goal for which it was established. The Village hosts three other schools: West Bloomfield High School, Scotch Elementary School, and Our Lady of Refuge School, in addition to St. Mary's High School and College, and SS. Cyril and Methodius Seminary. There are two houses of worship within the confines of the Orchard Lake Village: the Orchard Lake Com- munity Church, Presbyterian, founded in the latter part of the last century, and Our Lady of Refuge Catholic Church, a more recent addition to the Orchard Lake Family. This has been, this is, the Village of Orchard Lake, the nesis and growth of a small community, a pattern of nost ia and color. This-above all-is America, the all-import everyday friends and folk who make America goo nd great and grand. This is the story of a Village and heart-Orchard Lake.

CADETS, CANNONS, AND CAISSONS Orchard Lake, its island, and its environs abound with an especial and delightful color thoroughly all their own. The pages of local history read like a fascinating yet human adventure story found mid the pages of a Sunday Supplement. lt breathes with Indians and camp- fires, pioneers and log cabins. lt whispers of tom-toms, and rifle shots, the ring of axes and the felling of trees. lt speaks too of a name-the names of men who fixed a nation's interest upon Orchard Lake and left a monu- ment to an era-General Joseph T. Copeland and Colonel Joseph Summer Rogers, innovators, soldiers, entrepreneurs. The former of these two pioneers, General Joseph Copeland, a native of Maine, first appeared on the Orchard Lake scene as a commissioned agent of Old Hickory President Andrew Jackson. Copeland's was a secret mission, but the gravity of his trust didn't out- weigh a practical view of affairs. Although he was a lawyer by profession, having served his apprenticeship in the law office of the renowned Daniel Webster, the lumbering industry caught his fancy, and soon after his arrival in Michigan he established a flourishing lumber mill some distance upstate, at a site presently near Bay City, Michigan. The General's refined taste for the elegant, perfected at Harvard, dictated in time the choice of a home-site, and in 1862, General Copeland established a classically handsome residence on the crest of Orchard Lake's serenely picturesque east shore. Indeed it was a capti- vating, delightful sight to see the General's stately form maneuvering briskly in his racy two-wheeled gig to and from business appointments. The General's home, a sturdy structure of oak and brick, measured an impressive seventy feet by sixty and followed the architectural lines of a mid-Victorian castle. Highlighted by two round towers, each six feet in diameter and sixty feet in height, the General's home and castle boasted a spacious dining room, a dignified but cheerful reception room, six bedrooms, and an office. A library and a writing room, located in the tower over the reception room, gave witness to their owner's refined and literary tastes. General Copeland's military background stood him well during the bleak days of the Civil War. Taking full advantage of his previous training, he organized and regularly drilled a volunteer cavalry regiment which later served under General Custer in the Battle of Gettysburg. After the War, he resumed his law career, was subsequently elected Circuit Judge of the Saint Clair District of the Michigan Court system, and with three other Circuit Judges served on the State Supreme Court. He also served as a member of the Michigan State Legislature. The General-Judge was an avid hunter, angler, and sailboat enthusiast when the urgency of public life did not beckon. By 1872, that selfsame beauty of the lake and the surrounding countryside which had influenced General Copeland's choice of homesite was beginning to attract many prominent Detroiters. A group of Pontiac business- men seized the opportunity provided by the influx of these visitors and decided to construct a commodious hotel on the east shore of Orchard Lake. These men entered into partnership with General Copeland, con- tributing their share of the investment. It was the Gen- eral's residence which was to serve as the nucleus of the Orchard Lake Hotel. The board of directors of the association thus formed became General Copeland, Dr. J. P. Wilson, Colonel S. S. Mathews, and J. H. Morris. Plans were drawn up and work was begun immedi- ately on the expansion of the Copeland residence. The association had anticipated the opening of the hotel in time to accommodate the vacation clientele of that same year's summer season. Wooden wings, housing a dining hall sixty feet by thirty-two feet, over which there were eight bedrooms with two french windows each, were extended from two sides of the castle along the lake front. A combination boathouse-clubroom on the south side of the castle and still further south a dancing hall thirty-two feet by eighty-four feet were constructed. A recreation room with billiard tables and bowling alleys was built beneath the dancing hall. The hotel, when completed, accommodated about one hundred persons and the rates were two and three dollars per room. The hotel had its grand opening on June 20, 1872. The once peaceful Orchard Lake was now teeming with sport and gaiety. To add to the colorful appeal of their enterprise, the association hired a cowboy driver who raced a four-horse stage coach with leather trap- pings between the railroad station at Pontiac and the hotel to deliver the arriving guests. Even though public acceptance of the hotel was more than favorable, the effects of the Panic of 1873 and poor management soon drained the financial resources of the hotel. Despite the personal efforts of General Copeland, the hotel was closed in 1877. The association's abandonment of the hotel venture proved to be a golden opportunity for Colonel Joseph Sumner Rogers to fulfill an enduring ambition. lt was his desire to establish a military academy for boys, a desire cherished since his appointment by the President as Professor of Military Science and Tactics in the Detroit High School. In fact, he deemed as suitable some site on Orchard Lake when he encamped for a fortnight with the Pelouze Cadets at the Cummings farm on the south side of the Lake in 1874. Like General Copeland, Colonel Rogers was a native of Maine. In 1861, at the age of seventeen, Rogers left the school he was attending in his home town of Orring- ton and joined the volunteer army of the United States. He participated in the Civil War, engaging with the enemy at both battles of Bull Run. ln 1865, he was honorably discharged, his valorous conduct earning for him the ranks of Captain and Brevet Major. He later joined the regular army and was commissioned a lieuten- ant. lt was at this point in his career that he was ap- pointed to the Detroit High School. The Orchard Lake Hotel buildings proved to be suffici- ent accommodation for a beginning and the Academy was opened in September, 1877, with ithezhecessary faith and energy on the part of its projector. The school opened with six teachers including the Superintendent, and an enrollment of forty. The first commencement was held in June, 1878, at which one graduate, Edward E. Benson of Detroit, received a diploma. Cadet Benson was to start a line of graduates which included among others, such notable personages as Mr. Sewell Avery of the Montgomery Ward Com- pany, and Brigadier General Fred S. Strong, Jr., of the United States Army. The Michigan Military Academy, modeled somewhat after the Pennsylvania Military Academy and the Nor- wich Military University of Vermont, and resembling to a great degree the present Culver Academy in Indiana, was the state's first institution of practical, civil, and military engineering. The curriculum offered the cadet three courses of study. There was a three year English and Commercial course. Four year college preparatory courses offered were the Scientific, the Academic, the Latin, and the Classical. Military Science, Mathematics, Trigonometry, English, Latin, Greek, French, Physics, Chemistry, and History constituted the list of individual subjects taught. The Scientific course was an engineer- ing course modeled mainly after the curriculum of West Point. In addition to these regular courses, there was also a post graduate course. The roster of teachers boasted such capable professors as Messrs. Wier, Shaw, Clarke and Hull. The Academy was recognized as a diploma school and its graduates were therefore accepted by universities without examination. The general fee for instructions, room, and board was about S450 a year. The cost of uniforms and incidental expenses approximated 5150. Each student was to be uniformed in snappy cadet grey suits made by the Academy tailors. The literally wholesome atmosphere at the Academy rendered sufficient evidence as to Colonel Rogers' in- terest in developing the whole man. The moral training of the students was given as much consideration as their mental training. The Pontiac Bill Poster extolled the solidity of the school's founder, describing the Colonel as a man taking the Bible as the great Text-book, and Colonel J. Sumner Rogers enforcing its standards of truthfulness, honor, candor, and of doing right because it is right. The results of the Colonel's first principle of discipline were described in another Bill Poster article: Everything which had to be folded was folded and placed on its appropriate shelf. Also anything which was to be hung up was hanging. When the bugle sounded reveille, no impatient parent stood calling upstairs, 'Come, boys, it is time to get up. ' The Congregational Church's Reverend J. Berry served as Academy chaplain, conducting Sunday morn- ing worship services and caring for the general spiritual needs of the cadets. Reverend Berry or some guest minister delivered the lectures at the services.

The young Academy cadet's life was a full and active one. Means were provided for a regulated outlet of youthful exuberance and the formation of the spirit of comradeship. In the fall and winter months there was the frozen lake, the toboggan slide extending from the Military Academy Tower, one hundred and sixty-eight feet to the lake, and the inter-scholastic football and baseball teams. The first hint of spring found the cadets preparing for the coming baseball season and for games with the Cass Lake School on the old peninsular cricket grounds. Tennis, golf, swimming, and boating were other favorites of the cadets characterized as the brass button boys. The Academy's calendar of cultural events listed such presentations as plays, operas, and concerts. The How- land Theater witnessed the cadets' delight during the presentation of such plays as Uncle and The Three Hats, and the appropriate light opera, The Daughter of the Regiment. The various expositions also pre- sented at this time found the Academy well represented. The cadets, however, were not ones merely to retain the position of spectators and observers. Before long, the Academy presented programs in the form of minstrel shows and concerts for public entertainment. The concert band, under the competent baton of Richard W. Groom, received many compliments for its rendition of the Orchard Lake Cadets' March. The band also made a number of charity appearances, including performances for the patients at the Pontiac Asylum. A typical holiday program on the Military Academy's Campus was exemplified by the Lincoln Day program of 1908. On that day there were decIamations' by the cadets, music by the orchestra, and patriotic hymns sung by the school. The program was highlighted with a patriotic address by Arthur D. Pearce, a member of the senior class who was chosen class orator of the year. As time went on, the cadets became very much an integral part of social life of the city of Pontiac. Dancing and lawn parties were often held at the Academy, but the anxiously awaited events in the life of the cadet were the hops at the Clinton Hall and the various socials at the Hodge House. The demeanor of the cadet on and off the campus, before as well as after graduation, averred the excel- lence of the educative process at the Academy. The many crowds from Pontiac and Detroit who viewed the dress parades on Sunday afternoons at the Academy witnessed their edifying behavior. This contributed in no small way to the spread of the fame of the institu- tion. Requests for the cadets' participation in parades throughout the state were made in increasing number. In the early days of the Academy's existence, General Sherman spoke at one of the commencement programs. Ex-Governor John J. Bagley of Detroit and several dignitaries of state and foreign countries visited the Academy. The cadets also excelled at entertaining such visiting groups as the Michigan Publishers' Association and the University of Michigan Glee Club. Within a decade of its founding, the fame of the Michigan Military Academy became nation-wide. It was soon reputed to be the finest school preparing young men for admission to West Point. As the spirit of the Academy heightened, the precision of the cadet marching corps waxed perfect and the brass button boys drilled for competition in New Orleans and Washington. On April 16, 1886, two companies of cadets started out for Washington, hopeful that they would take first honors in the drill competition. Unfortunately, their hopes were not realized, but they received many ac- colades. One report from Washington read: The mili- tary bearing of the brass button boys was much admired by army officers and citizens of Washington generally. The following year, the Pontiac Bill Poster described another venture of the Academy. Colonel Rogers, Maior Galbraith, the staff and a company of Michigan Military Academy Cadets, numbering thirty, embracing a cream of the institution in general physical make-up, all tall, perfect physique, and so ranged that any differences in height were hardly distinguished, got away to Washing- ton and the great Military contest. The Michigan boys had not been on the field ten minutes before it was demonstrated to the satisfaction of nearly everybody that they would get first prize. They put up an almost perfect drill, regardless of the fact that the grass was soaking wet from a hard shower only an hour before they drilled. In appreciation for a iob well done, the elated citi- zenry of Pontiac prepared a reception for the returning cadets which included a brilliant fireworks display and a lively hop at the Clinton Hall. Between 1886 and 1890, the Academy enjoyed its golden years, presenting a complete military organiza- tion of a battalion of four companies under the command of an officer of the United States Army detailed for duty at the institution. The battalion had its Adjutant, Quartermaster, Signal Officer, Sergeant-Maior, Color Sergeant, band and trumpeters, and each company had its full complement of officers. The Academy campus itself had grown from a single building, the Castle, in 1877, into an institution with ten castellated buildings. These were the Castle, the Bar- racks, the Academic building, presently the Class Build- ing, the Quartermaster's Building, presently the Administration Building, the Mess Hall, presently the Classics Chapel, the Gymnasium, the Power House, the Professors' Residence, presently the Sisters' Home, the Riding Hall, presently the Dining Hall, and the Chap- lain's Quarters, destroyed by fire. imparting a decidedly martial atmosphere to the scene, a number of cannons and caissons rigged for artillery practice were positioned on a depressed plateau in the foreground to the west of the buildings, while on a rise of ground above, a huge mortar was positioned, as if doing sentry duty. This colorful institution was educating young men for twenty-five years when the beloved Colonel Rogers the head and principal inspirational source of the insti tution, died in 1902. With the demise of this great man the control of the Academy went to the remaining me bers of the Rogers family. The Colonel's pervasive spi t could not be replaced, however, and the school fail d because of lack of students. In 1909, after thirty-t o years of enviable service to Country, the Michigan Mi i- tary Academy was closed. So passed an era. Sylvester Bretschne er 'W 5, , f-'N X, 5-1- T ,..

We give tribute to Father Joseph Dabrowski and Father Witold Buchaczkowski, first rec- tors and founders of the Orchard Lake Schools. lt was the former of these two men, Father Joseph Dabrowski, who, with little more than heart, hope, and heavenly courage, found an answer to a mounting crisis. He established and opened in 1885, on the east side of a growing Detroit, the Polish Seminary, dedicated to Mary, Queen of the Poles, and to Saints Cyril and Methodius, Apostles to the Slavic Peoples. This he made his sole interest, the center of all his life and dreams- the providing of priests and educated lay leaders for a dynamic American Polonia. These neither Poland nor America could alone provide, for backgrounds con- trasted far-too-violently, and the numbers needed were far-too-vast. Only Polish America could provide them a seminary such as Father Dabrowski's. This saintly, visionary, mild yet ever dedicated priest governed and maintained the Polish Seminary amid the most trying and arduous of difficulties for the first eighteen years of its existence. Only his death in 1903 was able to take the man away from the boys and men he called his own. The burden of advancing the ideal and dream of Father Dabrowski fell to his friend and confrere, the Seminary's Vice-Rector of sixteen years. ln 1903 Father Witold Buchaczkowski became second rector of the Polish Seminary. The background and early days of Father Bucha- czakowski are ill-defined by his biographers owing to the insistent simplicity of the man and his reluctance to -...kg k ' f M- , 'ss' 1, ns speak about himself or his accomplishments. Born in 1864, in Lublin, Poland, he answered the call of a Priestly Vocation and took his theological studies at the Gregorian University in Rome, residing there at the Polish College. With his ordination to the Priesthood in March of 1887, he recognized the need of his ministry among the vast numbers of his fellow Poles who were fleeing their native and betrodden Poland to build new homes and lives in the rich, free, and opportunity-filled climate of America. He set sail for the United States, arriving in June of that same year. He immediately became a pro- fessor at the recently founded Polish Seminary in Detroit. His genius for administration and his pedagogical abil- ities were quickly recognized by the Ordinary of the Diocese of Detroit, Bishop John Samuel Foley, who ap- pointed him Vice-Rector of the Seminary in 1889. He served in this capacity for the next fourteen years of his life, inculcating into the Schools together with Father Dabrowski-his superior, comrade and friend-the fervor and sacrifice which they shared between them-ideals which were to become the tradition of the institution they founded. Upon becoming rector of the Seminary in 1903, Father Buchaczkowski immediately set about expanding the Detroit institution, adding a new wing to the original building and with it a new chapel, auditorium, dining hall, and students' quarters. Increased enrollment, however, necessitated even further expansion, and in 1908 construction of a new building at Garfield and St. Aubin Streets in Detroit commenced. The pressure of en- rollment was thus eased temporarily, but the far-seeing and perspicacious administrator was still far from satis- fied. With a paternal and solicitous eye to the moral and spiritual growth of his charges, he felt that the heart of dynamic,industrious Detroit was hardly the ideal location for a seminary, lacking as it did the qualities of peace and seclusion which befitted a home and training ground for future priests. He longed for the serenity which could only be provided by a rural site. The former campus of the Michigan Military Academy lying some twenty miles northwest of Detroit and nestled along the peaceful shores of Orchard Lake became Providence's answer to Father Buchaczkowski's dream, the Seminary's need, and Polish America's spiritual, educational, and cultural destiny. The Michigan Military Academy, which had prospered for many years at Orchard Lake, under the guidance and rule of Colonel J. Sumner Rogers, was, to be sure, a valuable piece of property. Following the death of Colonel Rogers, his widow refused an offer of S250,000 for the site. Subsequent hard times came to the military school, however, and a deficit mounted which could not be overcome. The Michigan Military Academy closed and went up for sale. News of the availability of the Military Academy reached Detroit attorney Allen Campbell, and his asso- ciate, Fred G. Dewey, quondam instructor at the Polish Seminary, and a friend and confidant of Father Bucha- czkowski. The priest welcomed the news as blessed tidings and, after careful consideration of the matter, finally decided to purchase the Academy when it was placed on auction. Many were the obstacles confronting the Rector's dream: for one, erection of a new building in Detroit had just been completed, then too, more than a few Polish-American residents in Detroit considered the Polish Seminary as both a cultural and educational center. They opposed the move strongly. The firm and wise counsel and support of Bishop Foley, Father Bucha- czkowski's close friend, confirmed the priest in his de- cision, and proceedings for purchase of the Orchard Lake site were begun in the Seminary's name by Allen Campbell, who acted as broker. Negotiations for the purchase extended through January of 1909 on to the spring of the same year. Pontiac attorneys Patterson and Patterson were in charge of the sale, and on the morning of May 'l2th, 1909, the representatives of both the Academy creditors and the Detroit Seminary at last reached an agreement. The Orchard Lake site passed into the possession of the Polish Seminary for the price of S23,000, plus the bonded indebtedness and a widow's dower, totaling a sum of S83,000. Confirmation of the sale came on May 27th through Probate Judge Rockwell. Using 533,000 as a down pay- ment, a sum acquired by Father Buchaczkowski by draw- ing from his own personal resources and from the 'SE-bmi 'in N contributions of friends, the Polish Seminary purchased the property. The subsequent sale of the Detroit build- ings in l9'Il for 537,000 saw the complete transfer of property in a more than successful fashion. On July 20th and 2lst an auction attended by over 500 people was held at Orchard Lake to dispose of the remainder of the Academy equipment, and the men of the Detroit Seminary commenced their fateful move to their idyllic and colorful new home. Books, desks, kitchen and household utensils, classroom equipment, religious and liturgical articles-all found their way onto open fiat cars and were moved, free of charge, over the elec- tric street car lines, which extended from Detroit to the Orchard Lake campus. Eleven trips in all were made, one per day, or more properly, one per night, for the mov- ing took place between 2 and 4 o'clock in the morning, before regular traffic on the street car lines was re- sumed. So momentous an exodus was executed solely by the men of the Seminary, among others the youthful Max Gannas, Stan Skrzycki, and Joseph Przybylski, men who have gone on to secure for their names both tribute and honor by means of their priestly and pastoral excellence. The remaining days of the summer were filled with hard 1 Buildings at Orchard Lake-come and go. The men at Orchard Lake-come and go.

On Thursday, September 9th, 1909, the Seminary opened its doors to some three hundred and fifty students. In a short time work and functioning were at the peak of efficiency. The opening of the Seminary at Orchard Lake was heralded widely in the papers of the Detroit-Pontiac area. Described as being truly unique, the School was regarded as being the only one, perhaps, in which piety and the orderly observance of religious duties are combined with an almost idolatrous worship of the great American game of baseball. The newspapers were no less liberal in their admiration of the Seminary's rector, Father Buchaczkowski, whom they laureled as being suave, polished, obliaing, the embodiment of the man of culture, but only half concealing beneath his courtly manner the square jaw of the administrator, the keen- sighted man of affairs. His charges adore him, it is said, on every hand . . . And this despite the undeniable fact that the Reverend Buchaczkowski was a consum- mate believer in rigid discipline. The crowning highlight of that scholastic year of the Seminary at Orchard Lake was undoubtedly the solemn Dedication of the new site of the Seminary by His Excellency Archbishop Diomede Falconio, Apostolic Delegate to the United States. The Archbishop was de- lighted with an exuberant student display of Polish American hospitality, when his arrival at the Seminary on the evening of May 3rd was greeted with a resound- ing lantern parade of welcome. On the following morn- ing, May 4th, 1910, a throng of some five hundred people witnessed the colorful and impressive dedicatory ceremonies. Among these were His Excellency Bishop John Samuel Foley, Ordinary of Detroit, Bishop Gaultin of Kingston, Ontario, Bishop Sorrelly of Cleveland, and Bishop Rhode of Chicago. The ceremonies consisted of the Blessing of the Seminary, o Solemn High Mass, and an address by the Apostolic Delegate, who imparted the Papal Blessing to the crowds assembled. With June of that first scholastic year the very essence of Orchard Lake acquired new meaning, and the first Men of Orchard Lake answered their bishop's call and approached the altar to be ordained priests of Jesus Christ. Because Bishop Foley had taken ill, the newly consecrated Bishop Patrick R. Hetfron of Winona, Minne- sota, imposed his hands upon that first ordination class from the campus at Orchard Lake. There gathered in Saints Peter and Paul Cathedral in Detroit on June 29th, 1910, thirteen young men, chosen from eternity by the Divine Wisdom to minister at the altar: Fathers Stanley S. Skrzycki, Joseph Miers, Lawrence Malecki, Leo Panicki, William Courtney, Leo Gaffney, Herman Ostrowski, George Fritz, John Farrell, William O'Rourke, Leo Straus, Daniel Ryan, and Joseph Wilemski. With the beginning of the secondl year at Orchard Lake the Seminary experienced an increase of one hundred students over the previous year. It was obvious that further expansion was needed. Preparations and plan- ning took fruition in 1914 as Father Buchaczkowski began the construction ofa separate seminary building to house Philosophy and Theology students. This final project, the last of his long building career, was completed in 1916 at the cost of S35,000. The Orchard Lake Post Office-on the campus of the Orchard Lake Schools. Days passed into months, seasons passed into memor- ies. Fifty-two years of faithful and dedicated work began to take its toll of Father Buchaczkowski's strength. In 1916 the man's weakened health constrained him at length to resign the position he had held as Rector of the Polish Seminary for some thirteen years. He spent the last nine years of his life quietly, for a time in the United States, for a time in his native Poland, and for a time in Italy, where he died in Naples on August 1, 1925. His re- mains were later transported from Italy to the United States, where they were finally laid to rest in Detroit's Mount Eliot Cemetery, beside the final resting place of Father Joseph Dabrowski. Peter and Paul, Cyril and Methodius, Dabrowski and Buchaczkowski-their names are linked together as were their lives, their labors, and destinies. Each shared a common Priesthood, Apostolate, and indefatigable love of God and men. Their monuments stand ever paired. Just such a monument stands today on the Orchard Lake campus. lt speaks token and tribute, most eloquent in its silence, of the lives and labors of two men who saw the need of their people and of their Church, men who answered that need in founding an institution whose his- tory remains the greatest monument their names can bear-the Polish Seminary, the Orchard Lake Schools.

It can mean tip-toeing into dark silent corridors long after a given hour, congregating outside a door to sing Birthday or Feastday greetings, gathering with friends in a recreation room for a song- fest or a ioust in ribbing. These things make up the in- tangible spirit, the soul of a school, embodied mid a shell of brick walls and cement walks and leafy paths. As with all educational institutions, this is what makes up the inner fibre of the Orchard Lake Schools, em- bodied principally today in eleven buildings, surrounded by verdant lawns, impressive statues, and a liberal sprinkling of time-worn and imposing monuments to men and days, today no more. These are the things which enclose and solidify the spirit of Orchard Lake. This is the face of the Orchard Lake Schools. When Father Witold Buchoczkowski, Rector of the Polish Seminary, opened wide the gates of the New Orchard Lake campus in September of 1909, the first three hundred and fifty Men of Orchard Lake found themselves in a home-a tract of land sprawling over some one-hundred acres on the east shore of historic Orchard Lake, bounded on the west by Orchard Lake Road and on the north by Commerce Road, a campus inherited from the Michigan Military Academy and comprised chiefly of eight impressive buildings. Each be- came marked in time with a certain function and a tradition as necessity and progress dictated. Each be- came a separate aspect of a new face-the body for a new soul. The Castle, as it is called, oldest and most revered of the edifices on campus, is situated on the crest of an incline running somewhat parallel to the shoreline of the ..-..-hu.-....,. .. The Grotto and entrance to the Orchard Lake Schools. lake and measures sixty-five by forty-five feet. Hall- marked at one time by two impressive towers during the days of General Copeland and the Military Academy, the Castle was first used by the Seminary as a chapel, canteen, and living quarters for professors. South of the Castle there rose the old Barracks, a long rectangular three-storied edifice, one hundred- twenty by thirty feet consisting of six contiguous sec- tions, each serving as a dormitory for the seminarians. At a right angle with the Barracks rose the Class Building, a rugged structure of military mien measuring one hun- dred-ten by fifty-six feet and divided into three sections of three stories each. Here in the early days of the Seminary were housed ten classrooms, a library, and biology laboratory on the first and second floors, and a chapel on the third floor for those first Orchard Lake Prepmen. The Sisters' Convent. XX 1' I , , -'1 ' by -24 Originally occupied by the Prepmen as a dormitory, the Gymnasium, measuring one hundred-fifty-six by fifty feet, served at various times as housing for an audio- visual room, music room, public address system room, and a home-made swimming pool. ln those first days of the Polish Seminary at Orchard Lake, however, the Gymnasium's chief use was that of sleeping quarters with beds arranged on the main floor and the elevated ath- letic track which circled the interior. lnclement weather, coupled with a leaky roof, frequently necessitated the opening of umbrellas, but the hardy youths continued undaunted in their slumber. A bell, resounding at six in the morning, was the only thing that could awake them and cause sleepy-eyed but frantic scurrying to the basement of the building. Long lines at the wash- bowls or a rain-flooded basement often resulted in a walk to the lakeshore for the performance for early morning ablutions. The Seminarians would then fall into military formation on the white pebbles which blanketed the campus quadrangle between the Barracks and the Gymnasium. Here they awaited their morning inspection by the Seminary Rector, who would scrutinize them for cleanliness and neatness. Following reveille, the students marched clockwise around the quadrangle, up to the chapel for Mass. Adiacent to the Gymnasium and serving from the very first as living quarters and office for the Seminary Rec- tor stands the Administration Building. Its screened-in roof-porch provided convenient sleeping comfort for Father Buchaczkowski during the first sultry summer months. On the ground floor was located the student infirmarian's apartment. That which is at present the foyer of the Administration Building provided then ample room for the Orchard Lake Post Office. An in- firmary and several professors' apartments, situated on the second floor, were serenaded sometimes unapprecia- tively by the oft discordant sounds rising from the music rooms located in the rear of the building where Professor The Castle -Residence of the Rector of the Orchard Lake Schools. Paccini could be heard making the painful transition from musical theory to practice. A touch of color was frequently added to the Admini- stration Building by Father Buchaczkowski in setting up a military student patrol before the entrance. Such was for the most part a disciplinary measure rather than a safety precaution. With a rifle gleaned from the stock- pile inherited from the Michigan Military Academy, an unruly young man would find himself spending a totally unprofitable afternoon at an uncomfortable position of rigid attention. One afternoon when a particularly en- terprising salesman was approaching the Seminary Administration Building, he was met by a rather vindic- tive though prankish student guard who leveled his rifie at the salesman and began to approach. The amazed salesman fled in terror. Reassured by some of the other students, the salesman approached the Building once again, and once again the aforementioned prankster began to charge. This time, the Rector, who had viewed the incident, intervened with a strong hand, and the would-be assailant was convincingly dissuaded from such further military tactics-much to the relief of all sub- sequent salesmen. ln 1909 the edifice adioining the Administration Building and at present the Classics Chapel served as a Dining Hall. A kitchen and bakery were housed in a wing perpendicular to the principal section of the building. Frequently in the spring and autumn outside the Dining Hall could be found a four o'clock treat for the students, a table laden with bread and iam, a small token of Father Bachaczkowski's solicitude for the voracious appetites of his young charges, an act which endeared him to all men who called him Father. Across from the Dining Hall rose the home which housed most of the first Orchard Lake Faculty and which serves today as a Convent for the Sisters. lm- mediately north of this building stood the Military Academy's Riding Stables, which were converted in The Class Building 2.4.1. vffli S 1912 into a residence for the High School. The first floor was partitioned into study halls, a washroom, and the library, which was moved from its original site in the Class Building in order to provide more classroom facilities for the growing institution. The second floor provided dormitory space for the Prepmen. Along with these first eight buildings inherited by the Seminary from the Michigan Military Academy, there was also a ' ' ' ' ' ' amply to sul Lake School the long ro cherries, pe: ers of grapl vines.

A Seminary Building begun in 1914 was completed within two years. The Seminarians eagerly moved into their new living quarters, a three- storied rectangular building measuring one-hundred and fifty by thirty-eight feet. It housed seventy-nine rooms, six washrooms, and two classrooms, together with the ground floor which was divided into a small chapel and three classrooms, which were remodeled and at present serve as the Seminarians' Recreation Room. Time and necessity witnessed even further innovation. During an extremely cold and snowy January night of 1917, the kitchen and bakery adjoining the Dining Hall, fwhich is now the Classics Chapelj caught on fire. Blocked roads prevented the Pontiac Fire Department from reaching the Orchard Lake Campus, and the Seminary's own equipment proved thoroughly inadequate to cope with the blaze. The wing was entirely devastated, but an undaunted Father Waszyca, casting a medal of Saint Joseph into the conflagration, directed a fire- fighting crew in tearing down the walls of the wing where they were ioined to the Dining Room proper. The names of Buza, Koscisz, Glazik, and Forysiak among others received tribute that night for their success in sav- ing the Dining Hall. A kitchen was lost, however, and with it went two ice-boxes and an era-the practice of hauling ice from the lake in winter to preserve stored provisions. The fire demanded a bit of facile shuffling, and shortly thereafter the Dining Hall was converted into the Campus Chapel. The first floor of the old High School Dormitory was remodeled to serve as the Dining Hall, and the Library was once again moved-this time back to the Class Building on the third floor. Life again re- sumed a peaceful air, and the tantalizing, if not always appetizing odors wafting to the Seminary Building from the now proximate Dining Hall earned for the new refectory the unromantic name of Gulashville. The moving of the Dining Hall necessitated the pro- . rl I -.ll . I .l ,,,,,l,,, ,,.- ...-..-, .... -.a...--.. -... 3-...g- ...... .uv equipment rooms was built somewhat behind the Ad- ministration Building, and a printery was established in a first floor room of the Class Building in 1928 for the publication of programs and various campus periodicals and brochures. With 1925 there was erected on the west side of the campus a new and imposing entrance gate, opening the campus to Indian Trail, which wound between the Schools and the sandy shores of the Lake. The roaring but pros- perous Twenties brought increased enrollment to all divisions of the Schools, and it became evident that the Barracks needed expansion. In 1926 the entire front half of the long, rectangular building was razed in order that a corridor might be extended and a second sec- tion of rooms added through the length of the edifice in place of the entrances and corridors of the six con- tiguous sections. A wing was then added to the south end of the building providing living quarters for forty- two additional students. The passing of two more years sow further changes in the Barracks and the construc- tion of a Faculty Wing, measuring thirty-six by eighty-six feet, conioined to the northern end of the building. The rise in enrollment of the mid-Twenties saw the Fraternity House, used as living quarters in by-gone days by the Faculty of the Military Academy, invaded by the student body, or, to be more exact, the select and favored few of the Collegemen. Twelve of these stu- dents lived on the second and third floors of the build- ing, while a number of the Faculty resided on the first. Not infrequently an evening was spent by these twelve in surreptitiously listening to a football game over a radio or dreamily listening to Professor Piatkowski lay his masterful touch to a violin or even gazing up at a western sky to observe astronomical phenomena with the old and dear Professor. The pride of the Frat Build- ing and of Professor Piatkowski was old Dewaitis, an immense and imposing oak, calculated to be some four hundred years old. The Professor was wont to challenge visitors to stand arms' length and encircle the tree with less than three persons. lt was a very forlorn and down- cast Professor Piatkowski who one day viewed his pride and joy lying on the ground after a gusty and violent storm. Frat House life went on, however, even without Dewaitis, and only a decade and 1936 saw any change with the arrival of the Felician Sisters on campus, who came to take charge of the kitchen, laundry, and sacristies. The Frat House became a convent, thirty-two by thirty-six feet, furnished with a chapel, sacristy, community room, and thirteen bedrooms. The years passed, and with them came further innova- tion. The former Dining Hall, now a Chapel, was given The Auditorium-Gymnasium. an annex in 1928 to house a sacristy and four side altars. A rear entrance and balcony were likewise added. It was this Chapel which was eventually destined to become the shelter of Rutkowski's famed painting of Our Lady of Chestochowa, placed above the Chapel's main altar in 1957. Sports of every nature had always been of heated interest to the Men of Orchard Lake and the early and mid-Thirties saw the improvement of athletic facilities. A fine football field and a baseball diamond were leveled and sodded on the south side of Seminary Road. This, along with the Gymnasium's facilities for basket- ball, provides recreational opportunities in addition to three tennis courts, handball courts, a volleyball court, and a sprawling, sandy beach with raft and dock for summer water frolicking. The year 1935 and the Fiftieth Anniversary of Father Dabrowski's founding of the Polish Seminary in Detroit witnessed the erection of a monument to the two Found- ers and first Rectors of the Seminary, Fathers Joseph Dabrowski and Witold Buchaczkowski. The cornerstone and bricks from the original Seminary building in Detroit were used to build the monument. The Thirties and their lean years came and passed. The Forties and the crushing reality of World War ll did not permit major additions to the campus, but they did allow for a bit of sprucing up. Broad walks were laid between buildings, and on May 21, 1942, a mag- nificent monument to Mary was dedicated overlooking the shore of the Lake. This Grotto, constructed of tufa rock, was donated by the generous Mrs. Josephine Rzeppa of Detroit. With statues of the Immaculate Con- ception and Saint Bernadette, an altar, large crucifix, and a side chapel dedicated to Saint Andrew Bobola- the Grotto remains a haven of prayer and a site of pilgrimage for all the men and friends of Orchard Lake. The year 1945 saw the erection of four new garages at Orchard Lake, additional living quarters for em- ployees, and a new and centralized heating system. A fire in the Gymnasium during November of 1949 was ample cause for the renovation of locker rooms and further athletic facilities. At this time the white pebble blanket of the quadrangle became replaced by ram- bling verdant lawns. This last decade has brought a continuance of expan- sion, progress and vitality to the Orchard Lake Schools, a proof positive of the dynamic spirit of the institution. With the early Fifties there was inaugurated a Music Shop on campus. Situated on the second floor of the Barracks, it provides the best in popular and classical music recordings. The Music Department has likewise been instrumental in the construction on the second floor of the Dining Hall of modern, fully-equipped, sound- proof practice rooms, and orchestra and ensemble rooms, and a recording room. 1953 was the year to sec the construction of a spacious stage in the Gymnasium for the presentation of plays, concerts, and Campus as- semblies. The boom years immediately following the war neces- sitated larger postal facilities for the Orchard Lake Village Community, and in 1956 the Village Post Office moved from Mrs. Wilson's General Store on Seminary Road to a new, yellow-brick building on the northern end of the campus on Commerce Road. The building boom did not end there, however, and with 1956 there began construction of a new Library on Seminary Road. The long, low, fully equipped building, the latest word in contemporary design, was completed in 1957, measur- ing one-hundred sixty-two by sixty feet, a gift of the Orchard Lake Alumni Association to their Alma Mater. September of 1957 witnessed the transferal of some 25,000 volumes from the third floor of the Class Building to the new edifice, its spacious shelves, two reading rooms, archives, two offices, and its Conference Room. The former library on the third floor of the Class Building became an ideal spot for a Campus Assembly Hall, en- tirely renovated and refurnished in 1958 and today the displaying center of some of the campus' most valuable paintings. These then are the Orchard Lake Schools, Cl happy blend of yesterday and today. The proud demeanor of Copeland's Castle, the rugged military mien of the The Barracks -Residence Hall of the Lower Division of the College and the Upper Division of the Preparatory. he Academy Buildings, the blond and simple lines of the Seminary Building and the Ark, the contemporary, airy design of the Alumni Memorial Library-all form an in- tegral, well-organized, efficient, complete yet still grow- ing institution. The Castle today acts as residence for the Schools' Rector, two members of the Faculty, three guest rooms, and a Faculty Club Room. The Barracks, along with pro- viding eight apartments for Faculty, accommodates the Freshmen and Sophomores of College, the Juniors and Seniors of High School, two class rooms, and two recrea- tion rooms. The Class Building provides nine classrooms, a library archives, the Campus Assembly Hall, modern laboratories for Chemistry, Physics, and Biology, a typing room and a Yearbook Office. The Administration Building houses the offices of the Rector, Procurator, College Dean, High School Principal, Registrar, Friends of the Seminary, Alumni Association, and the Secretary General with a Bookstore on the first floor, and on the The Dining Hall.

It is barns and sheds, chicken coops and garages, monuments and rocks and shrubs and walks and corridors and men and hearts and souls and prayers.

'Orchard Lake -the very lilt of the words sugg the splashing of water, the busy rustle of leaves, and the cool rich fragrance of a summer breeze stealing through a cluster of pines. Orchard Lake -what a myriad of memories, images, and emotions those words can evoke! They have found their way into a countless number of hearts, and to each of these the words mean something else, something intimate and wonderful. To many, Orchard Lake is a dream-the one place they long most to visit, that they might here whisper their prayer and have the opportunity to say thank you. To others Orchard Lake is a memory-the setting for a time in life when youthful daring, pranks and fancies were real and im- portant, necessary and good. To all, Orchard Lake is a tapestry of color-a delightful scene of oaks and lawns and winding roads, the panorama of a sunset, dipping slowly into the deep blue of a lake. A multitude of hearts have come to know, respect, and love the memory, the dream, the spectacle of nature and beauty and color-all part of the totality which is Orchard Lake. A multitude of hearts, a multitude of meanings, an undefinable, but unmistakable presence pervading and animating a host of commonplace tokens, to know these is to understand, at least in somewhat fashion, the meaning of Orchard Lake. To a vast number Orchard Lake is a postmark, a tiny seal which has appeared on some five million letters and cards, brochures, magazines, and books. Five million times have the words been stamped-an extraordinary number considering that Orchard Lake is a communi of only some three hundred families. That has meant a great deal to the five ' ' souls who received it. lt has meant a rom Jimmy or Johnny or Stanley, Qegonfhiphew, or brother who has gone away to ? school that he might study to become a priest. lt has Y l76 meant an issue of the Sodalis or the Lakeside Punch, the Lake Oracle or the Alumnus, news of the Polish-Ameri- can community at large or a study in Philosophy, The- ology, Mariology, and the Arts. That postmark has meant a tangible evidence that the traditions and ideals of Father Dabrowski were still being realized, were being maintained and upheld by a proud and in- terested, a solicitous Polonia. To the historian Orchard Lake is Indians. It is Chief ' and arrowheads, war-councils and campfires. It is Indian ' and burial grounds, plans for the historic attack upon o oit. It is legend and folk- lore, Indian maidens and Me-na - -ning. To the Village Community housed about ded shores, Orchard Lake is home. lt is the wooden, war- painted yet friendly warrior standing in front of Wilkins' Restaurant. It is the Summers' Home, impressive for the number of its rooms, windows, and gables, a silent yet lasting reminder of a man who made Orchard Lake the center of his life, the focal point of a family tradition. lt is the Country Club, the sail boats, the cheery wave of a hand by one of the police officers, who ensure the preservation of an enviable record of residential peace, order, and beauty. It is a warm smile and a friendly hello from Mr. Fred Walls, President of the Village Com- misison, Mrs. Lucille Smith, Secretary, or Mr. Elmer Peters, Chief of Police, just a few of the good and gen- erous souls who have made public service to their friends and neighbors an integral part of their daily lives. To the old-timers Orchard Lake is the memory of a bugle call, a drill-sergeant's growl, rifles and cannons. It is the Military Academy, where a cadet's dream was West Point, his best friend the headmaster, and his favorite past-time that of getting a horse and s under him. To these Orchard Lake i s and Hull, Clarke and Strong, me ' o men who loved their country, th ' rges, their work, men who spent their ' in service to them. To the Alumni wha call the Seminary their Alma Mater, Orchard Lake is a warm and pleasant feeling which swells up with mention in the recesses of the heart. lt is a gallery of understanding eyes, strong and wise faces: the bespectacled warmth of Father Buchacz- kowski, the determined jaw of Father Jarecki, the patri- archal beard of Father Waszyca, the handle-bar mus- tache of Professor Machnikowski, it is the twinkling eyes of Monsignor Krzyzosiak, the unassuming gentleness of Professor Lobaza, the friendly nod of Professor Piwowar- ski. Orchard Lake is Father Rybinski's gentle firmness, Father Cyran's Latin lectures, Father Maksimik's miano- wicie, and Father Filipowicz's I love you, because you love Orchard Lake. Lake- ur Promise for Tomorrow To these, her sons, Orchard Lake is slowki and wyrazy, Pan Tacleusz and Ojciec Zadzumionych, Homer, Horace, Sienkiewicz, and Krasinski. lt is Kiedy Ranne wstaja zorze ,... Wystkie nasze dziennie sprawy . . . Orchard Lake is an autumn walk mid the plashy colors found round the lake, hunting winter stores of hickory nuts. It's an excursion to Mrs. Wilson's ice cream parlor, the thrill of a forbidden midnight swim, picking apples or stealing eggs, watching for the prefect's light to go out- a signal that all is clear. lt is the ecstacy of harboring a prohibited crystal set and disposing of the evidence before a raid by the officials. To these, her boys, Orchard Lake is a crossing system of winding walks, paths which have known worries, plans, hopes and fears, paths which have heard the heart-felt whisperings of Mary, help me to make the grade, Lord, am l really called? , Lord, that l may be a worthy priest. To these, the men whom she has nurtured, Orchard Lake is a face, changed considerably over the years, but, as a mother's face, grown dear and more radiant with the wear and marks of time. Towers have tumbled down, and new buildings have been constructed, a Seminary, overlooking o campus from the slightest sug- gestion ofa hill, an Ark, housing the pranks and prayers of boyish effervescence, a Library, sweeping its long, smart lines above a stretch of lawn and shore. Fences have been established and in their turn torn down. Grass has been planted, tended, uprooted, and re- planted. Rocks have become monuments and saplings aged and revered. A haven of refuge in the theme of a grotto has come to provide a moment's pause, refiection, new strength. The face has changed, but the soul has remained the same. Boys come, grow up, then leave to make a better, more Christian world. Men come, teach, preach, remain a while, and then they will too pass on with time. Buildings are raised, roads built, shrubs planted, flowers tended. The face changes, but the soul remains the same. The ideals of God and Church, America and the Polonia-these remain constant, intangible, yet as- suredly present, dwelling within a study hall silence, a football game cheer, an afternoon hymn. A history of struggle-against prejudice and misunderstanding, pov- erty and want. The history of an immigrant, his family, his faith, his thousand-year old Catholic culture. The struggle for rightful recognition and proper integra- tion. A striving for all those many and sacred things which make for a richer, a fuller, a more meaningful life. This remains. Above all-this alters not. A tradi- tion of service, zeal, and self-sacrifice. A devotion to the cause of God, of country, of education, and of youth. This-the soul-this remains. This-more than anything else-is Orchard Lake. And yet it is more. For Orchard Lake is tomorrow, and tomorrow is a promise. The story of the Polish immigrant in America is the story of a quest for bread and freedom, a search for a fuller cup of life. On these shores he has found that which he longed for. He has become an American, thorough, loyal, devoted. He and his children found this nation strong and rich and good. They have worked to make it stronger, richer, better. They have built homes, cultivated farms, erected schools, orphanages, hospitals, and asylums. They have sacrificed, fought, and even died for the way of life they have helped to forge. The Polish-American has much to be grateful for. The good Lord and His Blessed Mother have been superabundantly good to them. And so they have made a promise. Orchard Lake is that promise. On the shores of this lake-Orchard Lake-there shall rise an architectural hymn of Thanksgiving. A Shrine shall be built, a monument to Mary, Mother of God, Patroness of these United States, and Queen of Poland-Protectoress of a grateful American Polonia. This promise of our tomorrow. The spirit of our today. The memory of our yesterday. This is Orchard Lake. This . . . and . . . with time . . . more. Rev. Casimir J. Adasiewicz Sacred Heart Church L'Anse, Michigan Rev.

The Grotto of Our Lady of Czestochowa This unique grotto is to be found on the parish grounds of the Transfiguration Church in Detroit, Michigan. lts romanesque style of architecture and exquisite mosaic replica of the miraculous picture of Our Lady of Czestochowa are a contribution to American Ecclesiastical Art. The fact that the grotto is the only one of its kind in America adds to its importance. Since interest in this religious shrine is increasing, the Reverend Simon Kilar, Pastor, and his parishioners cordially invite all living in and visiting Detroit to come and see the grotto as well as to pay homage to Her in whose honor it was built and dedicated.

For example, if you choose marriage, you can enioy an all-electric home. Included will be electric heat, built-in electric range and refrigerator and a host of time-saving, economical electric appliances. They will be the ultimate in modern living comfort and convenience. Or, if you go into business, efficient electrically operated machines will assist you in getting the job done swiftly and easily-again an illustration of the versatility and dependability of electricity. Or, if you go on to college, perhaps you will become one of the scientists or technicians who help further mold the all-electric world of the future. No matter which path you may choose, electricity will be there to lighten your load, brighten your way . . . help you live better . . . electrically.
