SISTER KATHLEEN MARITA—Under Sisters watchful eye. the newspaper always manages to get out four times a year. And. because of her watchful eye. the Mirror last year obtained first honors in a nationwide rating service. Sister also displays her unique talent as a teacher in her Office Practice. Typ- ing I. and Typing II classes. FATHER JOSEPH A. SCHNORR—“All right, today we're going to have another quickie!” Although famous for both his “quickies” and his “tickets.” Father spends more time an- swering the pressing problems of today’s Catholic youth in his Religion III and IV classes than he does writing detentions. Occasionally. Father shows movies to instruct his students in the Christian way of daily living, but to do this. Father says one must respond to his urgent plea—“Bring in more green stamps . . . please?” SISTER JULIAN IMMACU- LATA—“Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails . . That’s not what Sister is made of. though. She merely uses them as teaching aids in her biology and IPS classes. Using nature as her text- book. Sister makes science more than words—she makes it fun.

MR. PHILIP FIDALGO—A recent addition to Kennedy’s teaching staff. Mr. Fidalgo has earned his weight in gold. He so carefully details and explains all the mysteries of Geometry and Algebra II that his stu- dents actually know what they are learning. He has also formed the valuable and indispensable audio-visual club for boys. SISTER LILLIAN—Sister is well known for her determination in teach- ing her senior English classes the great literary works of both the past and present. She has not completely given up on spelling and correct punctuation, but Heaven knows it’s a lost cause. Sister Lillian is also moderator of the yearbook staff . . . need we say more? Y FATHER LADISLAUS J. RYCZEK—Every day Father turns his Religion II class into a bat- tleground . . . minus the heavy artillery. He throws a loaded statement among the students, and it explodes into a heated debate. Although Father is greatly engrossed in his efforts to draw fire, he is always on hand in the Guidance Office to give advice and aid to any who seek it.

SISTER MARIE DAVIDICA—Though it is often said that history repeats it- self. students of United States History and Problems of Democracy firmly believe that history-makers never do the same thing twice. They do believe that history is interesting, though, because Sister teaches through discussion and not just facts. MR. JOHN J. DABAGIAN—His playful jibes and sharp wit play an important part in his teaching methods, for he makes sure that learning is not all work, but some play. Teaching Spanish I. Latin II. and French III takes up most of his day. but Mr. Dabagian still finds time to coach the junior varsity basketball team and the base- ball team. He is also assistant disciplinarian. FATHER PASQUALE R. CATULLO—His freshman religion classes sit in awe as Father hypnotizes them with stories of saintly men and women. Father’s twinkling eyes attract students of all ages to the cluttered, minis- cule room which he calls the Athletic Office. Besides head- ing the Athletic Department. Father is also moderator of the exclusive photography club.
