and bless a chapel. ff' ff Father John L. Watch gold leafs the Sanctus on the altar that he constructed for the chapel. Page lb Mwg. C' has l, 1 -re Bishop McGuinness bestows the final bless- ing on the students as he celebrates Mass. 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.
