To the Sisters of Saint Joseph we fondly dedicate our yearbook, in loving gratitude for their many years of devoted service. It is to the Sisters that we owe much of the beginnings of culture in Kansas City. It was they who opened the first girls ' school, Saint Joseph ' s Academy, on Quality Hill, in 1866. A courageous band of five Sisters came from Saint Louis at the request of Father Bernard Donnelly, then resident pastor of Kansas City, to establish the ' ' Academy for Young Ladies. Protestants as well as Catholics had urged the erection of a convent school; and a substantial three-story brick building with wide corridors and large airy rooms was erected on a portion of the ten-acre plot secured by Father Benedict Roux in 1835 for $6.00. This tract occupied a wooded bluff overlooking the junction of the Kansas and Missouri Rivers. For more than a quarter of a century, Saint Teresa ' s was the only Cath- olic school of higher education tor girls in Kansas City. But the area sur- rounding its location at Twelfth and Washington Streets was rapidly becom- ing a thriving business district; it was time for Saint Teresa ' s to move. Through the efforts of Mother Evelyn, in 1909 the cornerstone for the new Saint Teresa ' s Academy and Junior College was laid. The site chosen was the old Buckley Estate at the present Fifty-seven hundred block on Main Street. Many people believed that students would be unwilling to travel that distance for an education. The intervening forty years have been sufficient proof that girls are willing to come not only from Kansas City, but from many other cities and countries as well. In 1940 Mother Evelyn ' s vision of a four-year college was realized when the cornerstone of the Science Building was laid. This new building was named Donnelly Hall in honor of the pioneer priest who brought the first Sisters of St. Joseph to Kansas City. It is indeed fitting that we at Saint Teresa ' s help Kansas City observe her hundred years of development in this her centenary year, for we have had a part in the growth of the pioneer spirit. At this time we also observe the Three Hundredth Anniversary of the Congregation of the Sisters of Saint Joseph. We wish to express our grati- tude for the part they have played in the pioneering of the West and for their many years of devoted and untiring service at Saint Teresa ' s. We ask God to bless the Sisters for their labor in His vineyard, and we thank Him for the fruit of their efforts which we are enjoying as we celebrate the Centenary of the City and the Jubilee of the Church in this year — Nineteen hundred fifty.

Hose Jflarte j ltoarb Mirthful but magnanimous Toso — the girl with the chuckle up her sleeve. If you feel blue, just look around, find Rosie, and your troubles will float away. After spending her first year at Loretto Heights, she came to CST and has been lively and loyal in all school activities since. With a flair for business and love for a good argument, Rose is well qualified to fulfill her fondest ambition — to be a woman senator. She is a par- ticularly staunch crusader for th e principle that it is a woman’s right to change her mind. Hhe spare-time accomplishments include sew- ing, swimming, and composing enticing letters South-bent. 20 J B.S. in Nursing Minors: Biology Philosophy Sodality, 3, 4; Science Club, 3, 4; Vice-President, 4; Spanish Club, 4. Barbara nne Carrtgan Lively but loyal It’s her Irish heart we’re after — Barbara with the smiling face. A congenial attitude, spirit of generous giving, and love of her work make her an ideal for any nurse to follow. In her own effective way, Barbara has made a place for herself at CST as well as at the Univer- sity of Kansas Medical Center. Her ambition and persistence will be rewarded with her sought-after degree of nursing. 21 A.B. in Spanish Minors: Philosophy Sociology Sodality, 1, 2, 3, 4; Discussion Club, 4; Spanish Club, 1, 2, 3, 4; Presi- dent, 4; Dramatic Club, 4; Inter- national Relations Club, 3; Poetry Club, 1; College League of Women Voters, 4. ifettp itlae Coltfjarp Pleasant but precise Cooking and sewing are the very practical hobbies of this capable miss. Any of the faculty priests will vouch for her pumpkin pie or hot rolls. Nevertheless, her fondest ambition at present is to journey south of the border. Her Spanish major will come in handy down Mexico way. Betty ' s ever ready for a good lengthy discussion, a bout with the backstage lighting effects, or a box-lunch supper with the League of Women Voters. However, she ' s a typical collegian— she prefers her favorite sports, bowling and driving, to her pet peeve, term papers. 22 Judicious but jolly s Jack’s of all trades and Peggy is too. And master of them all. Four years of Rockhurst switchboard banter, straight A ' s, and time for all extra-curricular projects . . . that’s Peggy! She’s had enough spare time to become an excellent seamstress, dancer, and photo- graphic model. Immediate future plans lean toward two more years of study for medical technology. But her fondest and most future plans revolve around her own lucky thirteen. ©either A.B. in Biology Minors: Chemistry Philosophy Student Council, 4; Class Secretary, 3; Sodality, 1, 2, 3, 4; Prefect, 4; Missions, 1, 2, 3, 4; Good Counsel Club, 1, 2; Science Club, 3, 4; Sec- retary, 3; Spanish Club, 1, 2; Ath- letic Association, 1; Regional Chair- man of Mariology Commission, NFCCS, 4.

She is equally at ease behind the footlights, astride equus caballus, or in the swimming pool. She is very agreeable when asked to sing, but is averse to homework. And you haven ' t lived until you’ve been in a CST play — just ask Helen! Perhaps her desire to go to California is influenced by her dislike for cold classrooms. She thinks her social work will keep her busy after she takes her holiday, which she guarantees won’t be dead. 24 A.B. in Sociology Minors: Philosophy Physical Education Student Council Treasurer, 2; Class Secretary, 2; Vice-President, 3; Sodality, 1, 2, 3; Missions, 1, 2, 3; Spanish Club, 1, 2; Athletic Associ- ation, 1, 2, 3, 4. Petty tlmore Smart but serene The all-American girl, Betty is a delightful person to have around. With a ready wit and a keen mind, she has a record to be envied by all. Wholesome, jovial, gracious, and skillful, Betty is a whiz at the books, on the tennis court, or in the swimming pool. Her days at school have been well balanced: helping with student relief projects, keeping her bowling score high, and making straight A’s. We think often of the other Gilmore — Nan, who is now in the Benedictine Convent in Nauvoo, Illinois. Betty finished in January and is now doing social work. 25 Dainty but discerning The Muses were in a generous mood the day Maryan was born. With a probing mind, agile piano and painting fingers, and a deep con- tralto voice, she has made her way with a delicate ease. In her spare time she paints lovely countryside scenes reminiscent of her early farm life. Maryan plans to teach kindergarten next year, between bridge games. She keeps up with the Joneses” all right — after- hours. jtapan a fee A.B. in English Minors: Philosophy Education Missions, 1; Confraternity, 1; Dis- cussion Club, 3, 4; Press Club, 4; GOLDEN ECHO Editor, 4; Music Club, 1 ; Chorus, 1 ; Dramatic Club, 1; Miss Windmoor ; 3.

Mary Pat has what it takes any way you look at it. After teaching eight grades in St. Marys, Kansas, for two years, Mary Pat came to Kansas City, CST, and Ted! Through- out her four years she has been one of the most generous of students. Her hobbies are useful: designing clothes, cooking, sewing, and sketching during class. Mary Pat ' s fondest ambition is to have a lot of company to take with her to heaven — and closely following this: No pet peeve; I love the whole world.” 27 A.B. in Mathematics Minors: Spanish Biology Class Secretary, 4; Sodality, 1, 2, 3, 4; Discussion Club, 4; Science Club, 3, 4; Spanish Club, 1, 2, 3, 4; Sec- retary, 4; Athletic Association, 1, 2, 4; Miss Windmoor,” 4. osie Jllarp 3 barra Gentle but genuine With a loyal heart, open hands, dancing feet, and a ring on the third finger left hand, Rose Mary is ready to face the world. If she does as well there as she has at school, she’ll soon be sitting on top. Although she likes the title of Miss Windmoor,” she will trade it for a Mrs. title this fall. Her pet peeve is no heat, and so — her fondest ambition is to go to Mexico! 0 28 Miniature but mighty Everyone knows Alsie with the dancing eyes.” Ecuador lost her but we’ve been laughing with this beguiling little girl from Quito for the last three and a half years. She loves dancing, wants to use her math at home, but really can’t bear chemistry or being campused week-ends. She especially likes to cook and sew, and has been con- centrating of late on her plans to go home. The Mclnerneys have almost adopted her and hate to see her go as we all do, but Alsie says that anytime we’re down Ecuador way, just drop in. lsiacta 3?urieta Cfnrtboga A.B. in Mathematics Minors: Philosophy Spanish Class Treasurer, 4; Sodality, 3, 4; Missions, 3, 4; Discussion Club, 4; Science Club, 4; Music Club, 2, 4; Chorus, 2, 3, 4; Spanish Club, 2, 3,4.

Angela Hosfcal o Small but spirited You almost have to look twice to see 95 -pound Angie. But once you’ve found her you’ll look again at the fashionable clothes she wears with such ease. When she’s not playing pinochle or working at Harzfeld’s, she can often be found at her Uncle Jim’s. She has decided to make her contribution in the science world, and will begin training as a medical technician next fall. A word to the wise — don’t mention evening assemblies in Angela’s presence. 30 A.B. in Music Theory Minors : Education Philosophy Class President, 4; Sodality, 1,2, 3, 4; Missions, 2, 3, 4; Discussion Club, 2, 3, 4; Music Club, 1, 2, 3, 4; Chorus, 3, 4; Spanish Club, 1, 2, 3. iHarp Jeannette JflcSnentep Ecstatic but earnest Where there’s Jane there’s life! Witty, versatile, ever at your service, and a leader in many activities, Jane has been everyone’s friend during her four years. With a beautiful dramatic voice and a spar- kling personality, she has been much in demand to sing; and there’s nothing she’d rather do. Jane’s highest ambition is to do serious opera, and she has vowed that nothing will interfere. And thus has she kept the key to her own heart, and opened all of ours. Things which delight her most are Mrs. Miller, writing verses to her better half, and giving geography lessons in Spanish. 31 1 Droll but dynamic If experience is the best teacher, Dody will have much to tell her second-graders next year. As regional Veep, she has attended NFCCS conventions all over the country, not to mention the frequent get- togethers at Rockhurst. Her aptitude for writing and her ready imagination make her always in demand by school and Federation publications. She ' s had an opportunity to handle big-money, and says no thanks” to another car raffle in the near future. After Dody’s two-mile hike to school, and her usual 20 hours, her days are well spent; but if she has any spare time after her midnight coffee, she likes to listen to jazz records or play bridge. Fondest ambition — to sleep the clock around.

Diligent but dreamy You’ve read about people like Marilyn — now you’ve met one! There’s no end to her talents and ambitions. A genuine artist, she paints portraits and wants to do commercial art; she sings; and she writes. Her interests in hobbies center around photography, basket- ball, and bowling. She can’t stand gossip or prejudice, and — now take a deep breath — she wants to marry an Irishman! jWartlpn H fjepartJ jfflorrts A.B. in Art Minors: Philosophy Mathematics Sodality, 1, 2, 3, 4; Missions, 1, 2, 3, 4; Press Club, 1, 4; WINDMOOR Staff, 4; Music Club, 1; Chorus, 1, 2, 4; College League of Women Voters, 4; Catholic Collegiate Chorale, 4. Friendly but frank CST welcomed the captivating Marjorie in her junior year after she had spent her first two at J.C.; and has managed to keep her busy every minute. She has a witty word for all, and in the future will keep her 2nd-graders quite as enthused as were the ones she prac- ticed on this year. Marjorie admires antiques, but likes young people. Her spare-time energies are absorbed in keeping a low golf- high pinochle score. With her home ec minor she’s quite well equipped for — yes, teaching, what else?

Jtlartfja nn J emamt Shy but sunny Piqua, Kansas, a desire for research, and an adaptable spirit have combined to give us the genial Martha. Thoughtful and cooperative, she enjoys reading, makes her own clothes, and plays a mean game of softball. Martha’s fondest dreams will soon be realized when she begins her study of technology after graduation. She likes music almost as well as science, and has been an active member in the clubs which promote activities in these fields. The seniors were glad to welcome back her cheerful smile after missing it the first part of the school year. 35 A.B. in Mathematics Minors: Home Economics Philosophy Student Council, 4; Class Vice- President, 1, 2; Sodality, 1, 2, 3, 4; Good Counsel Club, 1,2; Discussion Club, 2, 3, 4; Press Club, 4; TERESIAN Staff, 1, 4; WIND- MOOR Editor, 4; Chorus, 1; Span- ish Club, 1, 2; Regional Publicity Director, NFCCS Student Relief, 3; Interscholastic Committee, 3, 4; Overseas Service Program Travel Chairman, 4. Sfoan i tfeolat Imaginative but industrious Do you want a car raffled? A meeting organized? A successful dance? You want Joan. She always divides her time — but somehow never does get off the third floor. Yearbook multiples, third-order determinants and problem chocolate cakes have kept her up rather high. Her wit, cooperation, and amiable discernment have made her a key campus figure. Joan’s extra-curriculars include catholic action social work, Rockhurst after-hours, knitting little things, and an above-average game of bridge. And just in case you’ve a nice exciting meeting (business, of course) to be attended — she’s free between 9 and 10 on Mondays. 36 A.B. in Art Minors: English Philosophy Sodality, 1, 2; Missions, 1, 2; Good Counsel Club, 1,2; Dramatic Club, 1, 2; WINDMOOR Staff 4. elen i ugent Tranquil but true Give Helen a blank sheet of paper and a pen and watch her go to work! We predict that in the next several years the fashion world will have a clever new designer in the person of this talented young lady. During her college years, Helen has managed to work steadily and at the same time to maintain a high scholastic average. Besides sketching and oil painting, she likes to go to concerts and to listen to records. 37 A.B. in English Minors: Education French Student Council, 3, 4; Vice-Presi- dent, 4; Sodality, 1, 2; Confraternity, 3; Good Counsel Club, 1; Discus- sion Club, 4; Press Club, 4; National Student Association Delegate, 4; Chairman of National Student As- sociation Committee, 4; Who’s Who Among Students, 4. Sf oan df BotmeU Stylish but sensible If there’s anything Joan likes better than an NSA meeting in Illinois, it ' s an NSA meeting in Missouri! She has really helped to put this student association on its feet at St. Teresa’s. Joan’s been around for eight years and still doesn ' t want to leave! Her dreams will be fulfilled when all the buildings are completed on the campus and she has taken a long rest. She’s composed on the basketball court, at the bridge table, or in a French parley; but not in a Saturday class. 36 A.B. in English Minors: French Education Sodality, 2, 3, 4; Music Club 4; Chorus, 2, 3; Daisy Chain Bearer, 2. cnebra 3 an $oteet Petite but persistent A busy girl, Genevra. 1942-44 at CST. 1944-45 at J. C. 1945-47 a TWA hostess flying to Madrid, Paris, Lisbon, Shannon, Canada, Mexico. 1948 marrying Dr. Richard B. Crowder in Philadelphia. 1949 — the adventure of her life — darling Charmain Michelle was born. In-between-times Genevra did exciting things: met many famous people, was. a personal guest at the ' White House, played in a publicity movie, and was offered a Hollywood contract. But most amazing of all — she preserved her love for English Lit! Full of ambition, she plays the flute, embroiders, and likes to travel. Her future dreams include a return to Europe; her pet peeve is people who have them. 39 Demure but dauntless St. Teresa’s will truly miss Margaret’s smiling face and lilting voice. She’s been a staunch and loyal member of the Sodality and Mission groups, and has divided her outside interests between scientific and musical activities. With plans to do research work, she also wants to continue her study of voice. Margaret always has a cheerful word and is loved by all for her amiable spirit.

Such words are typical of Margaret, who joined the class of ’50 at St. Teresa ' s only the past year. The South and West both claimed her previous to her advent to CST; she attended Kansas University her first and second years, and West- ern Kentucky State College last year. The slow smile, snappy brown eyes, and shining dark hair are only the externals of the charming and warm personality that is Margaret’s.

Active but amiable A genial Irish wit, Aileen. Her quick answers, soft manner, and extensive brain work have put Aileen on top throughout her college career. She has always been very active in the workings of student government, and has put this interest into practical application during the past year in her guidance of the student body. Realizing the necessity of a sound student government at all times, Aileen has helped to make the National Student Association an active organ in campus activities. Besides making As, Aileen’s hobbies include play- ing Chopin preludes, sewing, and taking ads for the Star. 42 Capable but composed The seniors have been thinking that something was missing. It was. We’ve been missing Sadie during the last semester. The little gal from Honolulu came to us as a freshman, and ever since then we ' ve been making room for her to move on up. Her immediate love has always been biology, and who can ever forget the tragedy of the deaths of Dante” and Beatrice,” her pet hamsters? Sadie’s analytic mind and scientific facility have made her an outstanding student and a dependable leader. As the Mission Club president, she earned the Paladin Leader award. Sadie is now working for a master’s degree at the University of Texas.
