CRUSADER PUBLISHED BY SENIOR a ASS Cathedral High School Belleville, Illinois Your Excellency, Most Reverend Bishop Zuroweste: The senior class of Cathedral High School, mindful of your interest in our temporal and spiritual welfare, wish to signify by these pages that your concern for us has been gratefully accepted. Dedicating this book to our Blessed Mother, we wish to announce publicly our devotion to her — a devotion awakened at our Mother ' s knee, enlivened in the halls of our Catholic elementary schools and rendered fruitful at Cathedral. Four years under the tutelage of the Brothers of Mary have made us cognizant of our duties to God and our neighbor. We feel that, under their guidance, we have been prepared to face the vicissitudes of life in a Christian manner. We thank you for having made possible our education in Catholic schools. We hope that with the years we may grow in stature and grace so completely that, years hence, the Church and our country may point to us with pride and say, there go Cathedral men! Gratefully yours, The Seniors. To Thee, O holy Mary, my glorious Queen; to thy blessed trust and special charge and to the bosom of thy mercy, this day and every day, and at the hour of my death, I commend myself, my soul and my body. To thee I commit all my hope and my consolation, my distresses and my miseries, my life and the end thereof, that through thy most holy intercession and through thy merits, all my actions may be directed and disposed according to thy will and that of thy Divine Son. CRUSADER OF THE YEAR Among these memoirs none can hold more attraction than the enviable exploits of the Man of the Year, Jack Sch- rand, whose picture on this page is evidence of four years well-spent in his alma mater. For God and country may his life be spent with the same verve and enthusiasm that characterized his years at Cathedral. Ken Weilbacher, Bob Papproth and Rich Eschmon receive awards in photos above Art Voellinger, Ted Yoch, Jerry Koehler, Chuck Hasenstab, Bill Klucker, Bob Heafner, Leo Dumstorff, and John Spieker merit Honor Service letters.

We believe that physically and intellectually as well as spiritually the theme has been developing in our lives. We believe, too, that it is pictorially and graphically presented in these pages. We hope that with the closing of this book, as with that of the book of time, we shall behold our growth reaching maturity in eternity.

In going to Cathedral our aim is to obtain an education. This educa¬ tion has three forms, these being intellectual, spiritual, and physical. The above Fathers have taken on the rigorous job of teaching religion to us. They explain the value and necessity of religion and also how it fits in everyday life. Through their diligent labors we learn to cope with the many spiritually trying encounters which we meet every day. For young men of the modern world this aspect of education which the Fathers offer is probably more important than any other, because our ultimate aim in life is to obtain Heaven and only through instruction can we learn more about God, thereby defeating the temptations of the Devil. The results of their labor can be seen in the fine young men that CHS has the reputation of turning out every year. These learned men have fathered us through four years of spiritual training and we thank them for giving us this cherished opportunity. tf )VZNT COU% r First Row, Left to Right: Jim Harter, Les Cole, President; Leo Dumstorff, Secretary.

ACCOMPANIED BY NEWLY-FORMED C.H.S. DANCE BAND FRESHMAN COMMUNION SODALITY Of FRESHMAN CONCERT Starting with its first parade in September, through the Christmas concert, and its last parade in June, the Cathedral High School Band, directed by Brother Glennon Mertens, has represented CHS with their fine musical talent. With graduation ceremonies, a galaxy of nine Crusaders stepped from the ranks of the 58 - 59 aggregation, their high school music career terminated. These nine include: baritone horn, Ed Rust; clarinets, Robert Lorenz, James Schneider, and Mark Schneirs; saxophone, Richard Schoenebeck; drums, Ed Heuman and William Klucker; French horn, Mike Meyer; and trumpet, Terry Andres. Andres, Lorenz, Meyer, and Rust headed their respective sections. Charles Crass, a junior, led the trombones, while two sophomores, James Fletcher on sax and Don Hagler at flute, paced their groups. Near the end of last year the band success¬ fully completed the first tour in the School ' s his¬ tory. They journeyed to Milwaukee, hosted by the Society of Mary ' s Don Bosco High. Rooming with band members from Don Bosco, the Crusaders participated in four concerts, toured the Le Blanc music factory and the city of Milwaukee itself. The concerts were given at three high schools: Don Bosco, Marquette, and Perpetual Help. Last year several musicians attended music camps. Ed Rust went to the Notre Dame camp in South Bend, Indiana, and Tom Schneider played at the Du Quoin, Illinois assembly. Top on the agenda of major accomplishments this year was. the securing of a new band room At the start of the year the band was still located on the gym stage. BAND However, frequent interruptions motivated Brother Glennon to transfer band facilities to the old Cathedral Grade School auditorium. Before the band could play, their acoustical prisms for sound control had to be installed. The newly inaugurated CHS dance band gave its first concert on November 15, mixing its own arrangements with song acts from Notre Dame Academy ' s Choraleers and a group of Crusader vocalists. On the evening of December 15, Brother Mertens guided the band as they rendered the inaugural concert. The program was highlighted by such selections as: South Pacific by Rogers and Hammerstein, Finlandia by Sibelius, selec¬ tions from Verdi ' s Aida , Marches, and Sleigh- ride by Leroy Anderson. March 8, they again performed, this time accompanied by the solos of Terry Andres, Bob Lorenz, Don Hagler, Ed Rust, and Charlie Voel- linger. A German band, as well as the Notre Dame singers, made an appearance. Featuring the schedule were the Musical Hits: New Moon and Show Boat, and the classical Sequia, by La Gassey and the Finale from Symphony in F Minor No. 4 by Tchaikovsky. Finally on May 15, the concert season was closed to the tune of light music sounds, as the band built a popular program around music from the Broadway Musicals with selections from The King and I, Oklahoma, and Brigadoon. Around these foundations were added: ' Trump¬ eter ' s Lullaby by Anderson, Begin the Beguine by Porter and a number of Marches. Left to right, are Steve Fischer, Ungawa; Mark Bauer, Mogambo; Mike Caponi, King Solomon, and Tom Grancholas, Witch Doctor. These men were the actors in the hilarious pantomime of King Solomon ' s Mines. JANITORS These familiar men known to C.H.S. as Peter, Joe, and Oscar keep the school in good condition.

On Dec. 8, 1958, Father O ' Schaughnessy offered the C 9:30 o ' clock mass at the hos¬ pital chapel for the freshman sodality, after which he de¬ livered an inspiring sermon on J the duties of a sodalist. Follow¬ ing this Father lead the aspir- J“| ants, pictured below, in the Act _ of Consecration to Mary. This f concluded their first step as _ sodalist. «OQ O SODALITY L I T Y Spring reception of socialists was followed by breakfast with our mothers. u N I O N Catholic Action is abortive unless it is in¬ spired and nourished by the Body and Blood of Christ. Here we have the annual Mass and Holy Communion services that accom¬ panied the reception of sodalists during May, 1958. ANNUAL RETREAT Francis Joseph and Ron Brenfleck explaining to Father Glennon the intricacies of life among the scholars at Cathedral. On October 9, 10, and 11, 1958, from the podium beneath the north basket of the gymnasium, Father Glennon made alive for us the necessity of staying close to God. In a quiet manner, his voice ringing with the sin¬ cerity befitting a priest of God, he led us through the maze of doubts and perplexities within our own minds to the bright light of God ' s truth and justice. He pointed out the one road to eternal salvation — the stations along which were pre-eminently the sacraments, obedience, charity, purity, and zeal. His words remain with us, but the sincerity of his prayer, Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee ' has rooted itself within our very souls. May he read these words bespeaking our esteem and gratitude, and may he a hundred times over repeat in his heart for our benefit, May they place their trust in Thee, O Lord. On October 16, 17, 18, 1958, Cathedral High School welcomed two distinguished visit¬ ors from Rome. The Crusaders rolled out the red carpet to Very Reverend Joseph Paul Hoffer, Superior General and to Reverend Brother Bernard Schad, Inspector General both of the Society of Mary. Introduced to the student body by Charles Hasenstab at the general assembly held in the gymnasium on October 18, Father Hoffer ex¬ pressed his gratification at the progress made by the Crusaders and at their loyalty to the tenets of the Church. He added, to the chagrin of some, that homework is becoming even more imperative than it had been before the ascension of Sputnik. Brother Bernard Schad, after his introduc¬ tion by Les Cole, extolled the greatness of our recently deceased Holy Father, Pius XII, ex¬ panding particularly on his love of the poor and his unexcelled devotion to the Mother of God. Both visitors, upon concluding, gave tri¬ bute to Brother Glennon Mertens and the Ca¬ thedral band upon their fine performance. PLANNING SPIRITUAL STRATEGY Brother Bernard Schad, Very Reverend Paul Joseph Hoffer, and Brother Michael Brangan discuss plans for future spiritual development. Picture at Left.

These next few pages will be dedicated to our beloved knights of the gridiron who wound up with a 7 - 3 record. Among their many deeds was the winning of the City and the Co-League Championships. They also beat Dupo, champi¬ ons of their league, and St. Mary ' s, champions of the C. A. C. Aside from losing an upset to St. Vincent ' s, the gridders lost their other two games to two of the top teams in the area, Lincoln and Assumption. They distinguished themselves as an A-One group, knowing the job at hand, and with tre¬ mendous spirit and determina¬ tion, carried the Blue and Gold to a winning season.

It was also the first team in history ever to win a tournament To do this the Crusaders beat Okaw- ville, Nashville and Dupo in the Christ¬ mas Holiday Tournament held in Free- burg. The team has already won 21 games, with at least one more re¬ maining, which is already a record for the most games won in any season.

Outstanding freshmen: Bob Zohn, Richard Schifferdeck- er, Leo Dumstorff, and Jim Coyne. But when I became a man I put away the things of a child. Putting away the things of a child is the task of a man. A e have learned that the task is a duty if we are to mature. We think that most of us have matured sufficiently to step into the adult world. Our limitations during these formative years have been understood by our teachers and parents, and allowances have been made. Our petulance has received manly checks at times, and powerful admonitions have kept us working when play had the greater appeal; and although we did not under¬ stand the reasons for some commands we have learned to obey as men. Through the guidance of our teachers we have hurtled the gamut of courses with success and, now, having those trials behind us, we feel confi¬ dent of the future. Thanks to all who have made our education possible. May God bless and keep you. Outstanding seniors: Front Row, Left to Right: Bob Zohn, Richard Schifferdecker, Leo Dumstorff, and Jim Coyne.

NOl RSE RECEIVES HIGHEST AWARD Called by God on April 3, 1959, Kenton Nourse bade farewell to parents, relatives, teachers, and friends and journeyed to God. Highly esteemed by those who were fortunate enough to know him, Kenton quietly per¬ formed his work, smilingly bore his sufferings, and gratefully stepped into the joys of his Maker. As Kenton lived most of his short life in Biloxi, Mississippi, his remains were shipped there to be buried in the Southern Memorial Cemetery. Requiescat in pace!
