Science Club cultivated future scientists. The development of scientific thought and method is the primary objec- tive of the Science Club. In order to embrace the needs and talents of all its members the club is subdivided into five distinct groups, each having its own moderator. Current divisions include General Science, Biology, Photog- raphy, Medical Careers, and Chemistry. Weekly meetings for all groups are conducted by the club oiiicers and a monthly general meeting allows members to pool ideas. Guest speakers, films, and demonstrations add to the interest of the general meetings. This year an absorbing lecture on human genetics and zoological taxonomy was addressed to the Science Club by Dr. Ralph De Facto of Rutgers University. Doing research for the next general Science Club meeting are Secretary .lean Rapport, President Ingrid Verhulst, and Vice-President Ann Passarettl. ,,,fQ:4i..,...-1,1 i't, j at tr-t Q e -

odality inspired spiritual growth. Making plans for the Sodality hootenanny are Prefect Kathy Glynn, Vice. Prefect Peggie Pierce, Treasurer Maryetta Longo, and Secretary Jane Shenk. 38 is 52. The oldest religious organization at the Academy, the Sodality offers its members a way of life incor- porated in its motto To Jesus through Mary. Be- sides its accent on personal holiness, the Sodality also has its apostolic phase in which its many groups participate. The Seniors organized a hootenany for the Propagation of the Faith and made their tradi- tional visits to St. Andrew's Nursing Home, while the Juniors periodically conducted parties for the or- phans at Immaculate Conception Home. By active discussions about the problems of the lay apostolate, sophomores prepared for their active work as Sodal- ists. The Freshmen were introduced to the Sodality and its special way of life by Senior Sodalists who conducted bi-weekly classes for them. This year the Sodality conducted two general as- semblies: one in honor of the Sacred Heart and the other celebrating the Immaculate Conception of Mary. With the cooperation of the entire school, Sodalists collected for the Bishops' Relief Fund and held a Mission Dance for the benefit of the Propaga- tion of the Faith. The last big Sodality function of the year was the Father-Daughter Communion Breakfast which was co-sponsored by the Fathers' Club. As always this was both a spiritual and social success- a fitting way indeed to close our year. What's this, an I.O.U.?,7 Maryann Ryan quips to Bernie Zorio and Corinne Higgins as they count mission money.
