Administration As his bulletin board shows, Father Richard Conboy's involve- ments of everything Boyle” best portray him. For the fourth and last year Kenneth Urasek goes to our headmaster for help to untie a knot in a conflicting schedule. And how true at anytime, any student can go to Father for any- thing. Serving from This Desk and File Sister Martina’s open door is always a sign of her constant availability and dependability. Sister Martina, S.C., vice-principal, is there when her aid, understanding, or only her presence is wanted or is necessary. Her work resembles a file marked A to Z. 10

Dedication What the roots are to the oak, the foundation to the structure, the preparation to the goal--that, Fa- ther Conboy has been to each of us: an influence of strength, inspira- tion, and purpose. As headmaster, his influence has been personal and deeply hu- man. He believes in each of us. He has consistently refused to let the little failings of youth hammer away at the ideal image he carries of each Boyle student: A Christian gentleman or young lady, destined for eternal happiness with God. And it is his appeal to the Christian in each of us that has always been most effective. For Father Conboy, education is always a personal matter; never a matter of mass media or whole- sale distribution. In his capable hands, Boyle High School emerged from a nebulous idea to a potent reality; nor did he ever wince under the difficulties this emergence meant. Under his guidance, one hundred thirty-one seniors grew to the stature of young Christian adulthood. Father Conboy has merited our respect and admiration by . . . his constant solicitude for us . . . his willingness to assist us at all times . . . his infinite patience with us . . . his unbounded trust in us . . . his unselfish giving . . . his humility which has given true dignity to his office. In grateful acknowledgment, we dedicate this first volume of BOYLE to Father Conboy Our Headmaster, Friend, Counselor, and Guide. It is our way of saying, We're grateful for what you've done for us; we'll live up to your expectations.

Faculty The English department mainly composed of Sister M. Wilhelmina, V.S.C., Sister M. Rosalia, V.S.C., and Mr. JohnKeally continues to find new methods of teaching Eng- lish. One of the most practical visual aids for large group instruction is the overhead projector. Teaching the basics: English Religion History One of the main purposes of Boyle High is Chris- tian training through knowledge and love of our reli- gion. Father Francis Plantes and Sister M. Antoin- ette, V.S.C., look over material for classes prepared by the diocese and a pamphlet doctrinal series. On earth, the light of knowledge comes only through experiences. In social studies, history in- structors: Sister M. Liguori, D.D.R., Mr. Michael Mulvihill, Mr. Theodore Gladkowski, and Mr. Francis Mannion provide facts about past experiences for us to apply to the present.
