Monaghan, super- intendent of Cothohc schoolsin the diocese of Oklahoma, relaxes at home in his study. ln keeping with our theme of life centered upon the altar, we find it only fitting that we dedicate our work in this i953 Chi Rho Yearbook to one who has shown us the true meaning of the altar. Daily we have offered sacrifice with him at our own chapel altar. Monsignor Monaghan has been to us a father, a counselor, and a guiding light. From him we have always known the highest. Still, when we had occasion to deviate from the rules of the school he was a firm admin- istrator of justice and a hard taskmaster, Those who graduate from Catholic High will carry the standards set by Monsignor and look forward to holding his friendship for the rest of their lives.

The juniors, sixty-two strong, were divided into two homerooms and chose Thomas Dobelbower and Robert Borchers for presidents, James Bruce and Richard Baylor, vice-presidents, Sandra Zoeller and Terry Koontz, class reporters, and Virginia Moron and Janeway Mc- Cann, treasurers. Sophomores and freshmen each chose three sets of ofificers. David Kelsey, Jeanette Howl, and John Fowler were elected sophomore presidents, vice- presidents Shirley Acton, Richard Cooper, and Louise Steelman became their willing aides, Rosemary Penn, Martha Tuggle, and Polly Keenan kept the sophomore records, and Ralph Goedtken, Thomas Murphy, and Bing Hanneman took office as treasurers. CHS's new people, the freshmen, chose presidents Bart Cronin, Mary Jane Mahnker, and Michael Morris, and vice-presi- dents Susan Cummings, James Shockey, and Gary My- natt to lead them, Joseph Dufty, Marion Fallaschek, and Sharon Wall became the freshmen scribes, and Michael McGrath, Carol Sokolosky, and William Eichoff held the purse strings.

Prime among the observances was a school-wide literary contest, sponsored ond iudged by the English depart- ment. Material for the proposed short stories and skits was limited to Biblical themes, in modern or ancient set- tings. Winners Tim Sprehe, senior, Terry Koontz, iunior, Jean Westerman, sophomore, and Alice Baylor, fresh- man, were announced, applauded and awarded at CHS's other big Bible Week festivity - the assembly program presented on the feast of St. Jerome, translator of the Bible. The Glee Club made its first appearance of the year at this program.. Sister Mary David, O.S.B., directed them in the Magnificat and a three-part arrangement of Psalm l l3.

We assist as librarians, The Library Club at Catholic High has been active this year and also very beneficial to the school. The club was organized at the beginning of the year and the officers elected were: president, Ann Bott, sec- retary, Carole Hudgens, and reporter, Betty Amend. The members, from each class, did a lot to help in the library. They helped in marking the books that ',,,'X,. gf, l? 'Q' came in and went out, and when a book was not in on time, sent out over-due slips. The members were respon- sible for making the posters that concerned the library itself. A few ofthe students typed the cards that go in the card catalogue and assisted Sister Jerome, the advisor of the club, in any way they could. ,-vw, A number of proiects - for example, candy and cookie sales - were tackled by the club. They also W staged a tag-day to raise money for reference books I ' and other needed material for the library. 'Pi it x A ' 'W W4 ji i lt I i FRESHMEN-Top Row: Mary Frances Keating.

OCTOBER 'l: Catholic High was finally blessed with a chapel. Room ll, the former religion classroom, was expertly renovated by an outstanding artist-priest of Oklahoma, Father John L. Walch, pastor at Chandler. Students who had been attending Catholic High through its two year existence, and who had been hoping and clamoring for a chance of attending Mass on school day mornings found it a little difficult to believe that the chapel was actually a reality when the announcement was made at a school assembly. The permission of the Bishop, the cooperative efforts of the pastors of the city, actions on the part of various student organization and classes, all helped to make Catholic High's chapel possible. Members of the CHS unit of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade, who busied themselves with a neat little trick of selling tags to the students, raised enough money to buy a sanctuary lamp. The dififerent classes provided the daily needs of the Mass, such as candles and wine. The Seniors bought the first set of vestments. Besides having Mass said every day, the Holy Eucharist was present at all times, enabling the students to make visits throughout the school day. Father Walch, noted for his outstanding art abili- ties, devoted a week of untiring work to produce a simple, but exquisite altar of modern design. , 1, ,, Courtesy us repaual OCTOBER 5 Who were the most courteous boy and gurl un Catholuc Hugh School during the school year of l952 539 Thus questuon was answered by an all school opunuon poll whuch was conducted durung a week long program of competuluon observance and votung Thus peruod of Hus Hellos and Thank yous was started a year ago and has turned out to be an annual aflaur It was appropruately named Courtesy Week ,Y it Vurgunua Moran and George McCaffrey were chosen by students thus year to reugn over the realm of polute ness The two runners up thus year were Kay Allen and Tommy Murphy lt' , fee?

' f X Watching the printer set up the type for the school paper are Editor Evelyn Gengler, Mary Mideke, and Dorothy Pat- ten, City Editor. The Journalism Class, under the advisorship of Sister .lane Marie, O.S.B., took up publishing the school paper, the Chi Rhoan, last September with Evelyn Gen- gler and Dorothy Patten as editor and city editor, re- spectively. From the start it moved toward its goal of making the students aware of their vocation as students. Some of the columns which were regular features ot the paper this year were Hi Lights, devoted to amusing and unusual happenings of school lite written by Nancy King, and Alumni Notes by Kathleen Snare which reported happenings of our past seniors. Tim Sprehe penned Around the Keyhole and Frank Man- ni H' ' ng its and Hurdles for the sports-minded. Nancy Price brought out the teatures ot the library in The Book Shelf, and Ann Bott, managing editor, gave the paper a taste ofthe old country with her Lite in Europe column. Proofreoding is serious business, agree re porters Kathleen Snare, Carol Strahl, Bob Thomp son, Quentina Steinke, and Catherine Grout, Page 20 1 Copyreading the reporters' stories are Nancy Price, Ann Bott, Frank Manning, Marga- ret Walt and Charles Kelsey. c Editorials are the voice of a paper and the Chi Rhoan always had a good strong voice. Pat Barker's on the materialism in Christmas was one of the top. Several other writers hit their peak in editorials. Bob Cody at- tacked the evils of teen-age vices, while Vince Rieger and Tim Sprehe aired views on social questions. All the work was not confined to the class room, however. Trips to the Oklahoman and Times and the Oklahoma lnterscholastic Press Association conferences, held in the fall and spring, enlivened the year. The Okla- homan and Times trip was to instruct the students in the mechanical operation of the paper while the O.I.P.A. meets concerned the writing side of the paper. ln addition to publishing the Chi Rhoan, during De- cember the stat? also put out the Christmas issue of the O. K. Student the official Y.C.S. paper in the state. The pride and joy of the stat? was what is known in newspaper parlance as a scoop, This comes when the paper is the first to release a piece of news. The Chi Rhoan got three of these during the course of the year. After the mock election, it was the first to announce that Eisenhower had landslided to victory. ln April it scooped Pat Keough's election as May Queen and in May it released the secret of new editor appointments. The fact that the Chi Rhoan was the only highschool in Oklahoma City to win the With Highest Honors award in the state contest is some indication ofthe qual- ity of work that went into each issue of the paper.

Sister Jane Marie, O.S.B., is journalism and English instructor and yearbook advisor.

Catholic High's Dramatics Club, the Queens Players, started their year's activities with election of officers on November 25. Frank Manning was chosen president, Joan Slief, vice-president, and Evelyn Geng- ler, secretary. Sister lmmaculata, O.S.B. was director and sponsor of the club. The first proiect of the year for the Players was the production of the play Our Town, which was worked on with much enthusiasm and presented in an air of excitement. ' Then, on December 5 and 6, Frank Manning and Joan Slief were sent as delegates from the Queen's Players to the Speech conference at Norman. The Catholic Theatre Conference in Kansas City, Missouri, February 13-14, also found the Queen's Players represented, there, they presented a one-act play, The Romancers, with .lo Anne Jensen and Frank Manning in the leads. The activities of the year were climaxed with three plays The Enchanted Rose, Mrs. Harper's Bazarr, and Spreading the News. A novel touch was added by seating the audience in a circle around the stage. Doing this required little scenery and contained enough movement so that someone faced the audience at all times. This unusual arrangement was a carry over from Shakespeare's time and is now being revived. film lounging back stage before their pev- formance in Our Town are Frank Mann- ing lsrage managerl, Bill Moss lDr, Gibbsl, and Bob Cody lMr, Webbl.

The traditional offer- ing of the golden cakes is made by John Naeher, Mary Lou Carney, Tom Dobelbower, Cynthia Sanders, Bart Cronin, Mike Morris, and Sandra Zoeller at the Golden Mass. DECEMBER 17: The Ember Wednesday of the season of Advent is a special one, so special that the Mass of that day has been given the name of Missa Aura, The Golden Mass. Tradition has it that this was the day on which the faithful brought gifts of food or clothing for the poor. They carried these gifts in the Offertory procession, and after they were blessed, the gifts were distributed to the poor. To add another symbolic and festive note to the occasion, a golden cake was made and offered and after the Mass it was divided and shared by all the faithful. The cake symbolized the unity of the Mystical Body through the grains of wheat which are blended in the flour. This year the acquisition of a chapel made this cus- tom possible to Catholic High for the first time. The Golden Mass was a high Mass at CHS, and said by Monsignor Monaghan. At the Offertory, cakes, one for each home room, were offered up with the priest's offering. -s' Page JI i l J V' 4? '1 W i 1? cp C9 x -I K - vi v 'S ay 6 3 'F ,.

The date was chosen in keeping with an old tradition of giving a play for the poor in honor of Our Lady on the Ember Wednes- day before Christmas. The one-act play, Good King Wenceslas, by Cloyd Head, was written around the carol about that king. The cast, directed by Sister Mary lmmaculata,O.S.B. included charles Murray as the King, Susan Cummings as Queen, Ann Dixon, Connie Evans, George Allen, Bart Cronin, Green K. Dickson, Charles Bruce, Alva Wil- liams, Bill Brown, Mike Morris, Genevieve Touhey, Mary Dennehy, Gail Crandall, Anne Burke, Mary Lou Carney, Ann Borrelli, Charles Martin, Joseph Dufty, Gary Mynatt, and Ronnie Ward. Everyone pitched in to make the play successful. During the performance the sextet sang Good King Wenceslas, the quartet sang Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly, together they sang God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.

A I I it I E 'li-I But the hot and cold Catholic five caught fire once more and dumped Marquette, then iourneyed to El Reno and played steady ball in routing Sacred Heart, 4l-34. Sacred Heart took an early lead in the latter game, but Catholic quickly erased the short margin and started out a last quarter bid for its first conference win. Frank Helderle hit l6 points for scoring honors, and Don Cor- win of Sacred Heart was close behind with l l points. Further prestige was gained in victories over St. Mary's of Oklahoma City, and St. Joe's of Enid. In the first game against St. Mary's, Catholic took command in the first quarter and stayed on top all the way. Although their lead was often cut to a few points, the greenclads kept pulling away, and when the final gun sounded they were riding out a seven point lead, 37-30. For Catholic, it was a team victory, while Pat Manning led St. Mary's with i3 points. The second game was virtually a repetition of the first with Catholic controlling the ball most of the game and winning 43-34, chiefiy because ofa nine point mar- gin held at the free throw line. Dick Manley with nine points, and John Evans and Tim Sprehe with eight points led Catholic's charges while again most of St. Mary's scoring was accounted for by Pat Manning, who col- lected i4 points. Catholic completely outclassed St Joseph's of Enid in notching 62-40 and 50-32 wins over the same. Second string men played most of the way as Coach llle swept the bench in an effort to give his reserves some much needed experience. St. Joe's put up a rugged struggle in the first half of each game, but didn't have the stamina to contain the second half surge by the Catholic quintet. Rubber arms would come in handy, thinks Dick Manley as he stretches for the ball in an exciting Cascia game. This player from St. Mary's doesn't have a chance against the strong bul- warlr formed by Babe Fowler and George McCaffrey. Page 36 The Ieam was in a huddIe . . . the coach lowered his head and gave the team the low-down on how to sweep up the next quarter. Dick Manley, Frank Helderle, and John Shanahan listen atten- tively. Bill Phillips doesn't let the strong arms of St. Gregory's Joe King and Kevin McCarthy daunt him as he puts his left hook into action, St. Gregory's gave our boys an idea of what was to come, when in the first meeting of the two teams Kevin McCarthy in a one man exhibition accounted for l7 points in sparking his team to a 42-37 win. St. Greg- ory's quickly grabbed the lead in the first period and was never seriously challenged as they swept to a 14 point lead in the third quarter. A closing rally brought the Catholic quintet within tour points of the Knights, who were held to no field goals and seven free throws in the last stanza, but the inability to hit its own free throws prevented the Catholic team from overcoming the St. Gregory's five. Cafholic's last hope for a share of the confer- ence title was blown sky high when Sacred Heart of El Reno pulled a startling upset by coming from tar behind to win in overtime 38-36. After hitting only l of 3l shots in a 2 quarter span, Sacred Heart suddenly caught fire and by hitting 20 free throws to Catholic's l0, managed a shaky victory. Don Corwin paced the winners with 12 points as they came from ll points behind. In the closing games of the season Catholic dropped an overtime decision to St. Gregory's 35-33, as Kevin McCarthy again led the Knights with l8 points, and then the former returned to its home court to lose to Cascia Hall 57-46 as Frank Helderle of Catholic all but ripped the net oft ' e rim while hitting 28 points for a record performance. in the last game of the season Capitol Hill used its entire bench in downing Catholic without too much trouble. Poor, desperate Jack Ritchie of Marquettelooks on as Tim Sprehe sets up a lucky bucket. From John Shana- han's critical view- point, Joe King is giv- ing Bill Phillips quite a tussle.

That's Cascia's Bob Witucki looking worried. make the State Catholic Tourney A fast field of six outstanding teams repre- sented Class A in the State Catholic tournament on the weekend of March 6, 7, and 8. Cascia Hall, Marquette, and Holy Family, all from Tulsa, were the worthy repre- sentatives of the Eastern Conference. St. Gregory's of Shawnee, Sacred Heart of El Reno, and Catholic High of Oklahoma City comprised the delegates from the Central Conference. In the first pairings were Sacred Heart facing Mar- quette, and Catholic High drawing Holy Family as its opponent. Cascia Hall and St. Gregory's, the two top- seeded teams, drew byes. Marquette had an easy time in slipping by Sacred Heart of El Reno but Catholic and Holy Family fought out their opener to the final gun. Holy Family opened the game with some phe- nomenal shooting, grabbing an early lead which it held to the final minute. Catholic High couldn't keep up with Holy Family's torrid shooting and relapsed into a ball control game, taking only shots from close in. By throw- ing a hard, pressing man-to-man defense against Holy Family, Catholic forced them to take numerous off bal- ance shots and finally evened the score with about two minutes left. John Evans who scored lo points and Frank Helderle with l3 points led the rally with Frank hitting eight points in the last few minutes. John Evans hit the cinching points as he calmly swished two free throws to give Catholic a three point lead with l minute, 50 sec- onds showing on the clock. Holy Family rampaged down the court to hit a desperation shot, but Catholic got possession of the ball and stalled effectively for the last minute, and edged the Tulsans, 45-44. The second day roster matched St. Gregory's against Marquette and Catholic was forced to face the high scoring Commandoes from Cascia Hall. St. Greg- ory's, the seeded favorite, received a scare from the underdog Marquette five, but after trailing all the way, the Knights finally solved the ball-holding tactics of the Meteors, and with Kevin McCarthy sinking the seven winning points in overtime, the quintet from Gregory's scrambled into the finals. Cascia Hull was a heavy favorite over Catholic in their semi-final tilt and during the first three quarters the Commandoes' smooth ball-handling and sharp-shooting enabled them to build up a seemingly invincible nine- point lead. With five minutes to play, the Catholic five 118155-QI Basketball or ballet? John Evans and Bob Wi- tucki pose this question in a graceful exhibition . . . but wheres de balle7 still lagged by nine points but suddenly caught fire, and Dick Manley, Frank Helderle and John Evans didn't miss a shot in evening the score at 43-43 with one minute re- maining. During this onslaught, each team hit four con- secutive baskets before the hot Catholic five could cut into the nine point margin. With the score tied, John Evans hit what proved to be the winning points with a jump shot from l5 feet and the ball went over to Cascia with 30 seconds still on the clock. Jack Witucki, who accounted for 24 of the Cascians points, broke wide open for a set-up, but the ball refused to drop. Charg- ing furiously, Cascia forced Catholic to give up the ball on the lO second rule and once more gained possession with only six seconds left. An out-of-bounds play back- fired and Catholic captured the ball as the Hnal gun sounded. The 45-43 victory for the greenclads was one of the most pleasing of the season and placed Catholic in the finals. In the state championship game, St. Greg- ory's continued to hold its season iinx over Catholic and took an easy 43-27 win. Kevin McCarthy racked up 23 points in again leading St. Gregory's to the state title. Twelve of the 23 points were collected in the first period on only seven shots. Catholic fought determinedly and held the Knights within range throughout the first half. However the greenclads could only count ll points in the second half and St. Gregory's easily edged away to victory. it-1' W A young concession salesman Ends a good customer during half-time.

Officers elected to maintain the standards of the organization were Nancy Nicklas, president, Jeanette Howl, secretary, and Mary Lou Carney, treasurer. Most of the games throughout the year were nip and tuck for the CHS team but none of the Pep Club will ever forget the Tournament game with Cascia Hall or some of those close defeats suffered at the hands of Gregory. During these and all the games the gym filled with the lusty cheering ofthe loyal team supporters. Besides supporting the team at home games many members traveled to other towns in Oklahoma for various games. The most memorable of these was the week-end spent in Tulsa where all had a wonderful time. Other functions sponsored by the Pep Club were feeds after several of the games in the Catholic's gym and also money-raising proiects such as making pom- poms for home rooters.

I X wr , Z The Carnival, a yearly event, was under the direc- tion of the Junior home-room teacher, Sister Mary Wil- mett R.S.M., who did her excellent iob as usual. Some of the outstanding attractions of the night, to name a few, were the Cake Booth, the Doll Booth, and the Bingo. These three attractions did a splendid iob of attracting attention. Other enterprising events were the Fish Pond under the direction of Betty Amend, Richard Baylor's Pack- age Wheel, and the Hat Committee with Karen Steichen at the helm.

Mary Ann Nay took top honors with 7l net words per minute. Another first was added to the secretarial class-a Dictaphone course, designed to give the girls a better acquaintance with actual business conditions. The course consisted of taking dictation from a dictaphone. But the commercial courses were not all work and no play. Some of the interesting diversions Sister pro- vided for the students were various trips to different organizations and an interesting baby picture contest. Page 48 JUNIORS-Top Row: Barbara Evans.

The choral group assisted Sister lmmaculata's fresh- men group in the presentation of their Christmas play. At the annual Music Festival held at Bethany they sang themselves into first division of the rating with the Galway Piper and O Deus Ego Amo Te. The rating consisted of tive divisions.

Baseball af Catholic High came into its own this year as players and fans alike went all out for a successful season. The early enthusiasm continued throughout the year and Catholic hopes tor a state championship died only with the last out in the playoft game with St. Gregory's for the championship. ln the first game an 8-6 loss was suffered at the hands of Casady Hall. In following games John Marshall tailed to earn a run as they edged Catholic Bishop McGuinness gets his pitching arm ready for the opening game on CathoIic's new diamond.

In a return game with Casady Hall, Catholic put on its hitting clothes and collected l6 runs as the team downed Casady 16-l l. Frank Helderle was accred- ited with the win, Catholic's first of the season. The first conference game of the season was close all the way, with both teams smacking seven hits, but Tony Vrana of St. Gregory's kept Catholic's hits well scattered. The Knights came through with the necessary clutch hits, and scored their runs when they were most needed. Tim Sprehe started for Catholic but was relieved by Frank Helderle, while Vrana went all the way for Gregory's Don Best's homerun was the outstanding hit of the game. With a one-hit ball game, Frank Helderle pitched Catholic past St. Mary's in the second conference tilt 5-4. Don Best was Catholic's big hitter as he collected two singles and a triple in four times at bat. In the return with St. Mary's, Catholic was forced to come from behind in edging the Rockets 5-4. Helderle went all the way on the mound as Catholic scored two runs in the last inning on wild pitches to provide the winning margin. St. Gregory's came to Oklahoma City for the final conference game with a three wins, no loss record. Catholic High, with a 3-l record never gave up, though often behind and finally edged St. Gregory's lO-8 for their first victory over the Knights since entering the con- ference three years ago. Again Frank Helderle was the winning pitcher. The playoFf with Gregory's was a disappointment in every way, the Knights scoring l8 runs on only five hits as they defeated a jittery Catholic team 18-12. lil A I 'O Bill Phillips, Catho- lic's outfielder, pre- pares to hit a long run into left field. Catcher, Bart Cronin, signals the pitcher to play ball. Dan Best, shortstop, is the best when it comes to hitting home- runs. Frank Helderle, one of Catholic's fast-ball pitchers, lays one across the plate. With that expres- sion on his face and such a terrif'wind-up, this pitch by Tim Sprehe should really fan the batter.

Patricia Marie Keough, senior, placed the crown upon the head of the statue of Mary before an outdoor assemblage of the entire school. The ceremony, starting at two o'clock in the after- noon, began with a procession down Francis Street. During the procession, the students led by Senior Class president, Chuck Kelsey, recited the Rosary. The student body lined up in front ot the east doors of the school. Patricia approached with her attendants, Quentina Steinke, Sally Zoeller, Nancy King, and Mary Ann Nay. The students sang hymns to the Blessed Virgin and said decades ofthe Rosary. As the students sang Bring Flowers ot the Fairest Patricia crowned the statue. lmmediately following the placing of the crown, Sally Zoeller read the Act of Con- secration for the school. Monsignor Monaghan spoke to the student body on the evils and atrocities that other nations were com- mitting on this day. He warned them against these and other things, and advised them to observe well the month of Mary. Patricia and her attendants were elected by the Senior class a few weeks before the crowning. O, Mary We Crown Thee with Blossoms Today sing Catholic High students in praise of the Blessed Mother at the May Day Crowning.

The Booster Club operated on a large scale for the benefit of athletics at CHS during the past year. This organization was started only a year ago. This year, under the leadership of Ted Nicklas, they found many ways to raise money for the benefit of the physical education program at CHS. The Varieties of '53, a shindig get-together fea- turing all local professional talent, went over in a big way on April 24 and greatly helped the cause. All con- cessions that were served during the basketball games of the year were sold and served by the club. The school extended a warm word of thanks to the members of this organization realizing that physical edu- cation is needed for the development of the Christian student. Singing along Side by Side are Catholic High's newest competition in quintet style, Mary Frances Keating, Mary Ellen Whitton, Barbara Lynch, Lyllian Ryan, and Sharon Wall. Folk dancing is the popular step and style ot these Terpsichoreans from the John Lee Studio. reward best in MAY 4: Catholic High School held the annual Basketball Banquet in the cafeteria of the school, The Bishop was present to witness the presentation of awards and bas- ket ball letters to the various members ot the CHS basket- ball team. Coach Bernard Ille remarked during the evening on how well the team reacted to the tutoring he gave them during the past season. This, along with a few reminis- cent remarks of friendly joking with the coach and players, made everyone realize that the past season was on the whole a good year for basketball. Some of the other speakers for the night were Monsignor Buswell, emcee, Monsignor Monaghan, and Bishop McGuinness. Ted Nicklas, Booster Club president, gave a short address while Frank Helderle, team star, expressed his and his teammates regards. Nancy Nicklas spoke forthe Pep Club. Coach Bernard Ille livens up the Basketball Banquet with an amusing anecdote. His listeners, Monsignor Charles A, Buswell, Frank Helderle, and Bishop McGuinness enioy the situation thor- oughly.
