Guidance The newest addition to the guidance department is Father O'Connor. He came to Benilde last year to take the place of Father Knapp who hod to go to St. Louis. Father O'Connor is always ovailable to help out anyone, ot any time and in any place. Father has been here on the retreat days. First Fridays, and any time he may be needed. To add to his busy schedule he has been at school to hear confessions, talk over vocations, or just a friendly chat. We all hope that Father O'Connor will be in our guidance department next year and many years after. Not one student at Benilde can mistake the ready smile and willingness to assist of Mr. R. J. Eddy, the Guidance Counselor. It is his task to keep an accurate record of all aptitude tests that every student at Benilde takes, so that he might use it for further reference. Those especially helped by his work are seniors. Mr. Eddy's job here is to advise those boys who are unsure of their future life as to the vocation best suited for them. We can all attest to the fact that Mr. Eddy is definitely an irreplaceable asset to Benilde High School. 9

English All of our learning ond all our experience, in short, all of our knowledge would be of little use if we could not express if to others. Knowledge is expressed through language and in this country the language used is English. These two obvious facts are what make the study of English so important. English, of course, is more than rules of grammar and vocabulary. It is more an expression of one's personality when he speaks. If one lacks the knowledge to properly express himself, then he will present a false picture of himself to others. When applying for a job or admission to a college or whenever proper expression and correct understanding are important, Benilde students can be grateful for the guidance they have received from Brother Hilary, Brother Arthur, Brother Robert, Brother Bruno, Mr. Duffy, Mr. O'Leary, and Mr. Murphy of Benilde's English Department. BROTHER ARTHUR: English IV. Religion IV. BROTHER HILARY, Religion IV. English IV. Latin II, Glee Club Accompanist, CCD. (Adults), English Department Head.
