THE MOST REV. JOSEPH FRANCIS RYAN, j.C.D., DD. Once again 1 am very happy through the pages of the Annual edition of the Orbit to greet the students and other readers of tlzis fine annual publication. 1 hope that the year 1958 will find our student body very diligent in their studies, eminently successful in their examinations-and above all, most exemplary in the fulfll- ment of their religious duties and in the practice of their faith. To one and all at Cathedral Boys' and Girls' 1-ligh Schools, 1 Send very cordial greetings and iny blessing on all their endeavours. -I1 F. RYAN, Bishop of Hamilton.

Page Six The Orbit 19571958 Principal' s Message The Orbit, 1957-1958 REV. 1. A. MATTICE No Man is an Island . So wrote John Donne-and Thomas Merton has made the line sound with renewed clarity in our own day. We know its truth- we sense the fact that every moment of our living spins threads that inter-tvvine with the lives of others and the threads of their lives are woven into the many- coloured pattern of the stuff of our lives. There is a sense, though, in which we can twist this line to say Every man lives on an island -each one of us lives within the confines of a social group- perhaps within the limits of several such groups at one time-the class, the school, the family, the parish, to name only a few. Since we are social beings we feel the pressure of the group-the prevailing climate of the island upon which we live. We are inclined to follow the trend and to an extent this is reasonable and good. But trends are not always good and following is not always reasonable. You are being educated and the purpose of education is to produce leaders rather than followers. Leaders , these are the sought-after people in our time. The world needs them, our country needs them, God certainly wills that they be. This then is my message to you. Make use of every opportunity you have to develop your mind, your will, your sensible nature. Try to accept your personal responsibility in the matter of your education. Do all you can to help us in our dangerous task of forming the leaders of the future. Our job will be fraught with far fewer perils if you accept and do your part. Cod Bless you NOW and THEN. 9 n 1 Page Seven 3 , Y i i 1' k- ,f 1- Hru X1-.f4 ggggwmagm f' , Aera eagheefs- come fiom . . . ' Engineers come from High Schools, like yours. The High School student with a flair for maths and science . . . and the vision and energy to put his ability to work for himself and for Canada . . . is the successful engineer of tomorrow. And where do Engineers go? The answer to that is easyg an engineer with talent will go a long, long way in Canada today. New demands, new advance- ments in engineering are making more and more opportunities for engineers in the planning and direction of Canada's expanding future. So when you're choosing a course at University, give a good long thought to Engineering. YOUCANBESURENJFW3 Westin house Page Eight The Orbit, 1957-1958 iwmk 'isis' Miss Mclntyre, B.A., Miss J.

Dick Tighe, the Galloping Gaels of '57 appeared, at first, to be a very inexperienced squad. The team was comprised of only eight members of the '56 squad, along with twenty-one rookiesg of these only eight graduated from the Junior while the remaining had never played organized football before. The inexperienced Blue and White reached their first objective-the cham- pionship game. This was a hard-fought game and unfortunately the Gaels bowed to a hustling Delta squad to be thwarted of their principal objective- the championship. Prior to the opening of the season, the Gaels spent three days at football camp where the rookies learned a lot about the fundamentals of blocking and tackling which were stressed by Mr. Tighe. In the pre-season exhibition game against St. Michaels of Toronto, statistically the Irish outplayed their opponents, but due to Cathedral miscues the game ended in a 12-12 UC. The season began with a surprising 33-8 win over Westdale. With nine players out with influenza, the Gaels provedthat they had bench strength .by The Orbit, 1957-1958 walloping Central 21-O. Cathedrals first taste of defeat since the fall of 1955, was a close 4-O loss to Delta. Due to sickness which deprived us of the services of stars like Habros, Borsato, Masotti, and Yachetti, the lrish lost two games. Westdale surprised the Gaels with a 14-6 victory and De La Salle walloped Cathedral 42-12. The team began to roll again with a 19-14 win over Central. The Gaels earned a bye into the senior 1-I.I.A.C. football final by thumping Delta 27-12. Cathedral, Delta, and Westdale were tied for first place but since Cathedral had the best for and against record they got the bye. At Civic Stadium the stage was set for one of the closest fought games for the I'l.I.A.C. crown in many years. When the gun sounded for half-time Delta had a close 9-7 lead and after the final gun Delta was on top 22-8. The Irish didn't stop fighting until the final whistle but the opposition proved too strong to be halted. The frequent champions tasted defeat and Hamilton had a new interscholastic cham- pion. Page Twenty-seven Bon Habros, Denis Masotti, and Stan Kosakowski made the All-Star team. Besides the All-Star rating, Valuable Playern and the Most Sportsmanshiplike fullback Bon Habros received the leagues Most Playern awards. He was also the top scorer in the league. All-Star quarterback, Denis Masotti, led the Gael attack by using good judgment all the way. Stan Kosakowski, All-Star guard, was a boulder on defence and, on offence, he opened holes a mile wide. He was the youngest and heaviest All-Star. Halfbacks Armando Borsato and Roger Yachetti were given honorable mention when the All-Stars were chosen. Both played well on defence and on offence they gained valuable yardage. End Bon Granatier was selected on the All-Star team last year but this year he played with a painful shoulder which he dislocated last season. However, his blocking was excellent, opening up holes in the end for the back- freld. Centre Pete Carson fortified the middle of the line. Carson was moved from tackle to centre before the season got under wayg his height and ability strengthened the middle of the line. Ends Art Laush and Vince Hubbard returned from last year's squad and played fine ball. Bob Mahler. Walt Hayes and Barry Bepa, blocked and caught well at their end positions. The tackles, Phil Mazza, Art Sebastion, Bill Kirk and Emil Crosman, were big and rough. Crosman and Kirk tackled hard and rough on defence, Mazza and Se-bastion opened the holes for the backfield on offence. Len Kuehinski, Paul Hogan, john Nowaski, and Peter Gravelle filled in the guard positions. The four guards skilfully rushed, tackled and blocked the opposition. Bill Meehan, on offence, played centre but on defence he played corner linebacker with one thing in mind, Stop the ball carrier . Quarterback Basil Mercury replaced All-Star quarterback Denis Masotti who moved to halfback. Mercury proved that he was a fine quarterback mixing up and carrying the play exceptionally well. John Ben, Bob Boyle, Rudy Didimenico and john Pennylegion proved themselves as fine reserve backs. -Eif- fjgwsifff Page Twenty-eight Mike VVilcox handled the kicking for the team. The punt returners were Ted Carney and Bob Ben who did a fine job running back punts. Hats off to Mr. Dick Tighe and his able assistant Mr. Don Dunn. Mr. Dunn takes time off from work to coach the line and as usual did a tremendous job. Mr. Tighe had a busy season because of the inex- perience of his rookies: his task was done superbly. The managers, John Pennington, James Began and Murray Mazza, were always on hand ready to give their assistance. Next year with almost all the players back the Gaels stand a good chance of bringing back the Championship. f sv f ,, xi i i g.gg-4 fy 1 MW' Wig ' , jf Qzwf My N I 7 fi?

JUNIOR FOOTBALL This past football season saw the Baby Gaels the 1957 representatives of Cathedral High School under the leadership of Father Dwyer finish with a 2-2 record, which enabled them to enter the semi-finals. Une of their wins was over Westdale C9-65 who later on won the city championship. The other win was at the expense of Hill Park C12-71 Unfor- tunately the team suffered defeat at the hands of Delta and Central C25-l-lj and C7-62 respectively. In the semi-playoffs against Delta the juniors couldnt score from in close and as a result went down to defeat by the tune of C26-61 In the course of time, as with all teams in sports, the team had its share of injuries. All season the Baby Blue was plaqued with minor injuries, but the most serious forced three of their linemen to miss part of the football season. Jimmy Zwolak aggravated an old injury in the seasons opener and was lost to the team for the rest of the schedule. John McColl con- tacted a severe charleyhorse in the opening game, also, and was handicapped the rest of the season. Finally Steve Mamuza suffered a broken collar bone in one of the team's practices when he empha- sized the flying part of a Hying cross-body block. In a sense, Cathedral got a new coach this past season in the person of Father Dwyer. For the past few autumns Father Dwyer had been line coach of the juniors but this last season he took over the full coaching job. Father Dwyer's task was made un- doubtedly more difficult in that he had no assistants to help in the training and moulding of the team. To teach football fundamentals to thirty SO- CALLED ATI-ILF.TES is a difficult task for any two or three men, yet let alone one man. Father The otha, 1957-1958 Dwyers Baby Gaels finished the season in third place, which gave them a playoff birth. In conclu- sion we can truly say that Father Dwyer came through with flying colours Cblue and whitel. Special thanks must be given to the managers, Rudy Brunetti, Vario Ciandomenic and Don Morelli, for their excellent co-operation they gave both to Father and to the players.

The big Blue also walked off with the McMaster Tourney and finished runner-up in the Catholic Basketball Tournament. The Gael men led by a pair of veterans, jim Magee and Bill Sullivan, who finished second and third respectively in league scoring. Newcomer John CHerbertD Hughes and Al Healey finished sixth and seventh in league scoring, while Bob Murphy rounded out the first string. The bench was inexperienced but they made up for it by their desire and spirit. The bench was made up of Bob Mahler, Paul Chesla, Roy Maringoni and Ioe Tazzeo. The Gaels started out on the right foot, edging Central 58-55 and Delta 62-59. Both were uphill last minute victories. The next victims were Hill Park 60-21 and Westdale 78-66. The second half of th season saw the Blue and White hand Delta and Hill Park convincing defeats by the scores of 71-54 The Orbit, 1957-1958 ' and 69-51. They clinched first place with a 79-76 heart-stopping victory over Westdale. In this game Bill Sullivan set a new C.H.S. scoring record by pot- ting 36 points. With the pressure off, Central managed to end the Gaels' winning streak with a 49-45 victory. ln the play-offs Central jumped into an early lead and defeated Cathedral 53-44 in the Hrst game. However, the Gaels, reinforced by juniors Ed Bordas, Walt Cherwaty and Mike Thomas, bounded back to tie the series with an 88-81 win. The deciding game at McMaster was the most exciting in many years. The Gaels squeezed out a 70-68 overtime win to again win the coveted CHML trophy. Thanks must go to the coach, Mr. Tighe, the managers, Messrs. Frank Cosentino and Torn Gal- lagher, who coached the team in the Mac Touma- ment. A fine season was topped off by Bill Sullivan and jim Maga being selected to the league all-star team. jim Cooper, 13-1.

The Baby Gaels captured two champion- ships: The Colden Horseshoe Tournament and the CluniorD Hamilton junior City Championship. Their record was 23 wins and no losses. There were three veterans on the team. One was Captain Walter Cherwaty who led the team in scor- ing and was a valuable man on defence. Another was six foot six Ed. Borclas who played centre. The third veteran was Mike Thomas who played a guard posi- tion very capably. ' Up from the midgets this year were Bill Kanton, Joe Henderson and Vince Calzonetti.

For the second time our boys went through an unparalleled six-game season, victorious in every contest. Though this meant the league championship, we didn't retain the interscholastic cup and in the final game it was Cby a 2-1 scorel to the Hill Park squad. Hold it now. As a consolation, take note that the rampaging Caels overtook the altitude lovers by an 8-1 tally in the regular schedule. Similar scores such as 3-1 and 8-O against Central and Delta respectively, prove the Cathedralites have done a fine upstanding job this year. Congratulations go to Joe Cieclriatas, who again led the blue and white beanie men, Cand the league scoring for that matterD by 14 goals. Peter Carson and John Pennylegion showed themselves to be our choice for centre and forward with 6 points each. Vic Verticio, a new recruit to the senior squad, contrib- uted two tallies, while Don Cunningham managed a solo effort. Art Sebastian very successfully goaled another season.

The team learned the fundamentals of the game and gained valuable experience which will prove to be of great benefit for the future. It was without doubt the most enthusiastic and entertaining squad seen since the championship was won in the year of '56.

Page Thirty-hee It might seem that the girls' basketball teams have failed to achieve anything this year, but in reality much has been accomplished. The girls were defeated in their only exhibition game of the season played at Wlaterdown, yet they continued to practice under the very able coaching of Miss Rapsavage, who has taught them many new techniques. These have eagerly been learned and the girls are waiting to put them into use next year. As much time as would have been liked was not available for practice or games due to the daily occu- pancy of the gym. This did not deter the girls in the least. Instead, with unabated zeal to learn the game properly, they turned out for an early morning practice during the week and also on Satur- day afternoons. In the house league, 9-E won the Midget cham- pionship, 10-D the Intermediate and 11-C success- fully defeated 124B to take the Senior title. A IARGARET GIARDINELLO. .

Our dream finally became a reality with the forma- tion of the Cathedral High School Cirls' Band. Under the able leadership of their director, Mr. Ralph Whetstone, R.lVl.T., practices commenced in May, 1957. To date it has been an asset to a number of school activities including the Christmas and St. Patrick's Day Concerts. The original members augmented by a number of Grade Nine students who joined the group last September now fomi a senior band of forty-eight brass and reed instruments. Their uniforms of blue, white and gold were designed by Sister M. Sheila and Miss Bernice McLaughlin. The band has been the junior band selected to represent Ontario at the spring convention of the Canadian Bandmasters' Association in April and preparations are now under way for this event. Our highly talented director, Mr. Ralph Whet- stone, Pi.M.T., is to be congratulated for what he has accomplished in such a short time. With such a promising beginning the future of the Cathedral High School Cirls' Band should be rich in musical achievement. s g ' .- frrzswar ass X , f fa, qw W az, l. s Q.- - ' 45233-Lsfislf' N , f ' .52 ID 7 'M The Orbit, 1957-1958 Page Thirty-nine DRAMA efza21leq'4 Paul Mclnnis as Charley's Aunt. The Cathedral High School Players began their second decade of theatrical productions by presenting the famous comedy of stage and screen, 4'Charley's Auntf' In the past, the Cathedral actors have favoured the most serious and heavier type of drama, and it was thought by some that the demanding quality of this intricate humour could not be adequately achieved or interpreted by a high school group. However the dramatic maturity of the young thespians was brought to light when, under the guidance of skilful directors, once again the group gave a superb and comendable performance. Starring in the role of Lord Fancourt Babberley, who impersonates Charley's real aunt was Paul Mclnnes. Pauls interpretation had the coquettish exuberance and vitality that lent itself to the best possible characterization. His timing and sense of comedy both in vocal and facial expression captured and sustained the audience from curtain to curtain. ROBERT LUCYK was excellent as the amorous Charles Wykeham, and STAN AMBIS succeeded in capturing the elegant touch of an Oxford student in the role as jack Chesney. SYLVIA MAJDA and MILDA PUSDERIS as Kitty Verdun and Amy Spettigue respectively, easily met the challenge of their roles, while JAMES COOPER gave a highly laudable performance as Stephen Spettigue.

Full honours go to the director, Rev. john Hulley, ably assisted by Mr. Brendon Purtill. Their profound ability to interpret and stage exacting comedy is a great tribute to their dramatic artistry. Mr. Joseph Vvaters and his capable stage crew did, as always, a very praiseworthy job with properties. ln the costuming department, Carole Kelleher and Cecelia Uincec along with their industrious group provided a beautiful wardrobe for the cast and are to be congratulated on a job well done. In years to come the 1958 edition of the Cathedral Players and their vehicle Charley's Aunt , will be remembered as one of the truly great productions of the amateur theatre.

M. SOMERS. --o--o-o- MURDER IN THE LABORATORY The grade twelve student at Cathedral this year is faced with countless difficulties, one in particular being chemistry. It isn't that the subject in itself presents such a program but rather the exasperating experiences it may entail. Let me take for an example one period last fall. It was a beautiful day, one of those days when every one is bursting with enthusiasm and loving every one and everything-until chemistry class. Sister passed out what appeared to be a harmless red powder, which only goes to prove just how disa illusioned students can be. We proceed to heat this substance, as instructed, and carefully observed its reactions. When heat was applied it turned black, but if it was removed from the flame and cooled it turned red again. Thus far every one was happy, and had we concluded the experiment right then and there we would have been safe too. But as fate would have it we continued. We heated the test-tube to the point where its contents vaporized, and for a while we were actually under the misguided impres- sion that we had seen the last of the red powder or anything to do with it. However, a closer observa- tion proved our undoing. Before I proceed any further, I believe an explana- tion is necessary. Chemistry, unlike any other subject known, is fascinating. There is a certain quality about it that captivates human interest, and causes persons to become so involved in the process that they inevitably ignore all the rules of common sense- Page Forty-two which, in all likelihood accounts for the ordeal that took place at our table that fateful day in autumn. Unknown to us up to this point, we had been following the method to produce mercury. When, at last we discovered the tiny, silver ball at the bottom of the test-tube we proceeded to dump it out, as was only natural for the normally curious human being. Sister must have anticipated this tendency because she left us to examine the peculiar substance for some time. Now girls being girls and mercury being mercury, it followed that a name be chosen for our new friend, so we dubbed him Herman . Herman was enjoying a satisfactory existence too, until I decided it was my turn to exercise the ritual of rolling him around in my hand. I didn't mean to drop him. The result was horrifying-millions upon millions of baby Hermans scattered over a ten-foot radius. We knew it would be a futile task to even attempt to reconstruct poor Herman in entirety, but we also knew we would have to show something to Sister, who was already beginning her tour of inspection down one row and up the next. Unless you have experienced the same thing per- sonally, it will be impossible for you to imagine just how frustrating it can be trying to unite even two balls of mercury: and to accomplish such a feat on a hilly floor, as was our lot, proved to be an exastperat- ing experience to say the very least. There we were on all fours, desperately taking pot-shots at mercury balls, and Sister adds to our misery as she warns, Whatever you do, don't drop them! However, to make a long story short, we did man- age to accumulate the larger balls. We slid them onto a piece of paper, which I might add was a feat no less cumbersome than bringing them together, and finally, we hoisted Herman's remains to the top of the desk and carefully placed him in the test-tube from whence he came. Sisted seemed satisfied with our effort, and perhaps if I hadn't written this commentary she would never have known about that beautiful day last fall-the day we killed Herman. Editors Note: Due to the fact that this student has one year to go at Cathedral, she wishes to remain ananynzous. -o-o-o- TALE OF THE TREE Near mountains in a barren land, Parched by waste and arid sand By a plain, near a river, A seedling, here grew tall, And was picked from all For the axe of an old woodcutter, Dragged, then, to a nearby town: Cut and fashioned, roughly hewn, Formed to plank and bar, Carried then to a shallow mound, Outside this sacred, walled town, CContinued on page 44D The Orbit, 1957-1958 SOCIAL First Row ll. to r.J - D.

St. Pius X Club St. Pius X Club is the new name given to the weekly dances which are held in the boys' cafeteria. The idea behind the St. Pius X Club is to provide a place for all young Catholics to gather, even those who don't attend the school. The dances ran every Friday night until Christmas and continued after Christmas to the first week in Lent. They were resumed after Easter. The turnout this year was excellent but has been slowly fading since Easter. The social committee has accomplished wonders with the assistance and guid- ance of Father Duffy. They decorated the cafeteria beautifully for the dances at: Thanksgiving, Hal- lowe'en, Christmas, Valentines Day, and St. Patricks Day. The highlight of the year was the Spring Prom. Music was provided by lim Philips and his Orchestra and the place was decorated on the theme of Fantasia. THE MISSION SOCIETY The Christian charity of the boys at C.H.S. is quite evident in the mission collections. Throughout the school year, collections are taken up in the class- rooms. More money is always needed so Father Dentinger, the mission director, holds draws, rattles, stamp sales and receives commissions from the sale of the play tickets or tickets for other type of school activity. Last year through the collection of Dominion Store sales slips the school was given a television set. Up until now, around six hundred dollars has been collected for this year. This money plus some money that was on hand last year has been divided up and sent to needy causes. Our thanks to all those who make this charitable job possible. M. DEMERS, 11-4. The Orbit, 1957-1958 THE RETREAT The first few days of school, after the Christmas holidays, were spent, as usual, in prayer and medita- tion. The retreat was given by three of our own diocesan priests, Father Cerald Hill, Father Vincent Pickett, and Father Philip Duffy. For some seven hundred boys, the cafeteria became a chapel. The Crade 13's made a closed retreat at Loyola Retreat House. This retreat offered to the students the chance of new resolutions of Fidelity and love for Cod. M. DEMERS ll-4.

By a man, a blasphemer, So they said, led by guard. Some called Him friend, others Lord. Blows fell from a rusty hammer, Driving in three iron nails, First through Him, then through me- Both His hands, His feet together. They raised us on this blessed knoll, And I could not else but thrill, I knew HOt why, but it was proper. Some mocked and jeered Him, Yet forgiveness He extended to them. Prom this crossed rostrum, He spake more, Extending mercy to a thief, Crying out in pain of grief, Speaking gently to His mother, Giving care of her to John, Calling Him, her son. He spoke next to no one there Saying that He had a thirst, Then, that it was consummated. Near the end of the third hour, He moaned aloud, saying To Someone there, yet not, To a Person, He called Father, That to His hands, He sent His soul. Then, in the dark, the thunder's roll Echoed: and the sky spit fire. hlourning, yet in triumph, In violence, yet in love: The death of Him-The Saviour. I was a party to this crime, And through the course of time, I could not else but wonder, Why own blessed Maker-Christ Would die for creatures, as yourselves. M. W.

My trip across the ocean-'tis clear to this day I say to you friends, we felt hope of some sort Seeing that bright winter sunset we met at the port. The customs were passed, the crowds there were great A sight I'd not witnessed in Italy of late. And then on the train for two days and one night Across a new country which filled me with fright. A new land, a new people. Never I dreamed I'd love this great nationl Unlikely it seemed! Those long years in grade school engraftecl in me A new understanding of true liberty. And now I'm in high school, my thoughts often roam To faraway Italy, that once was my home. ANNE Smravav., 10-B. -o-o-o- FINAL ASSEMBLY, 1957-58 The final assembly of the school year was held on May 29th in the cafeteria. With Bob Mahler as chairman, a review of the athletic activities of the school was made with particular emphasis on sports Page Forty-four competitions during the winter months. Our Basket- ball and VVaterpolo teams were congratulated on their championship or near-championships. Official pres- entation of cups and other awards were made, includ- ing individual awards to Bob Violin of 10-2. The highlight of the assembly was the farewell ceremonies to Mr. Ed. Finan who has accepted an inspectorship in our Provincial school system. Roger Yachetti, speaking for the students, presented a Lazy- boy chair to Mr. Finan after extolling his CML Fin- an'sD virtues as a teacher and a man in a witty and entertaining manner. Father Sheridan, in his inimitable way, represented the faculty and presented to Mr. Finan a power mow- er, a gift of his colleagues on the staff. Our Principal, Father Mattice, summed up the feel- ings of students, staff and Board of Governors when he expressed regret at the loss of a fine teacher and a good friend. Several of our talented students entertained on accordian and mouth organ but the feature was a skit in which Gord Moratto portrayed Mr. Finan in the chemistry lab. He was ably assisted by a group of students who demonstrated the teaching techniques of Mr. Finan. The staff of the Orbit wishes to join faculty and students in bidding Mr. Finan farewell. May he have many happy years in his new position! Ed. Note: We regret that the report of the assembly honoring Mr. Cremasco who left our ranks for a post at Teachers College last year was lost. Our best wishes for him are not less sincere because of that. The Orbit, 1957-1958 The Cathedral debating teams were again active in international competition this year. On February 14 the senior team took part in the annual Basilian Speech Festival, along with schools from such widespread points as Sudbury and Chicago. Cathedral, although last year's winner of the tour- nament's Paul Martin Trophy, lost out in their bid for top honours, but made a lighting effort for the blue and white. The team was composed of Christopher Fox, VVil- liam Todd, Paul Martin and Thomas McNulty. The coaches, Mr. MacDonald and Father Bodnar, both felt that valuable experience was gained by our participating speakers, and also by the non-participat- ing members of our junior debating society, who accompanied them. This reserve of power will be instrumental in next year's competition, when Cathedral hopes to bring the trophy back here, where it belongs. TOM MCNULTY. JUNIOR DEBATING Congratulations to our junior debators, Michael O'Conncr, Edward Miazza, Christopher Lipinski and Anthony Ferry, on their splendid victory in Toronto. From among the seven schools competing, the Cathedral group was named the best. A hand must first be given, though, to Mr. MacDonald, who devotes his time and energy to public speaking in our school, and to Vvilliam Todd and Christopher Fox, senior debaters, who also helped to groom the juniors. Almost everyone takes for granted that public speaking and debating are easy. The long hours of compiling material and the making of speeches are completely forgotten. It is encouraging to see this interest in our younger students, because as the older boys move on, we will have these fellows to step into their shoes. In this way trophies will continue to stock our showcase. JOHN MILLS, 10-4. Front Row - B. Allen, E. Miazza, M. O'Connor, A. Ferry, C. Lipinski, P. Nace. Back Row fl. to nl - T. Walsh, E. Gryski, B.

The school year of 1957-58 gave birth to a new cultural society at Cathedral High School-a Chess and Checkers Club. The idea of a club of this kind was conceived in the mind of Mr. Brendon Purtill, Page Forty-six one of Cathedrals most beloved and respected teachers. Mr. Purtill organized the club and arranged a tournament within the school and also with another high school in the city. He can rest assured that all chess and checker enthusiasts in the school are most grateful to him. Although not too much progress has been made in the Held of chess and checkers at Cathedral this year, the foundations have been laid. Everyone concerned with it envisages a great future for the club. Activities of the Chess and Checker Club: Chess Tournament Winner-C. Silkans, 11-lg Checker Tournament Winner-C. Silkans, 11-1.

GRADE 12-A 12-A is a batty class of brainy beauties. VVith all those gems of genius lying around, in the persons of class representatives MARILYN DIXON and PA- TRICIA RGNCAIOLI, and our editor, MARIE KIRK, you'd think our reports would be out of this world, believe me, they arel The class mathematicians, BRIGITTE VVANNENMACHER and JOAN SI-IEA are the only ones who don't shiver in their shoes when showing the cards to their parents. Even though some of us are junior Einsteins, like LYNDA HART and ELEANOR FOLEY, were not squares. These two share a locker and in their great rush at 3.20, ELEANOR wears LYNDA'S gloves while LYNDA wonders why ELEANOR'S coat won't fit. Although we're watched by the eagle eyes of teachers, we have some fun, what with DIANNE ARMSTRONG blowing up the lab every Tuesday. She can't seem to get it through her pretty red head that SISTER LEONA means it when she says: Don't dump I-ICI into I-I2S. The main fault of the brunettes in 12-A is forget- fulness. Before every gym period, a shrill terrifying wail is heard in the locker room, above the chattering of juvenile 12-B. Then the cry of I've forgotten by bloomers, comes to our ears. The victim, usually MARGARET CARMODY, who commutes from Aldershot, tries to calm herself. Why is she crying? Because of the realization that the fine for not having Page Fifty her uniform will reduce her to penury. Then her bosom pals, MARYANN RIPANTI, IRMA I-IINCA and JACKIE BUTTON, delve into those bottomless pits-purses, to contribute to the fine. Our teachers cause a few tense moments especially in Latin Authors when PAT KACSIVIAR and CATH- ERINE COSTIGAN combine efforts to translate Vergil, and find to their utter amazement that they have missed an accusative infinitive. HELEN GOR- DYN cloesn't take this dead language, but she helps our Latin scholar, NIJOLE LATAUSKAS translate a sentence and together they make the language of the ancients deader yet. MARGARET KOLENKO, sometimes known as Blanche , and MARLENE MESSNER want to become teachers. They think they can handle people. I-la! Current questions circulating in 12-A are. Why are JO-ANN YA- Cl-IETTI and IOI-IANNE MULVALE interested in St. Mike's? Why are BETTY SNOW, MARY WOOD and IOYCE KOZAK so quiet? Could it be that they are hiding genius? Do ELEANOR MUH- MYLYK and LOIS BALFE really take Commercial or do they spend this time rocking and rolling? Does ROSE VOLPINI watch the late show every night? Can IULIANA CAPRIOTTI solve AX :' PP?

CLASS 11-C As you approach the room that has the honoured position of having the school office on one side and the chapel on the other, you hear a rumble. It's not that we're loud, it's just that were noisy. On the right, first seat, first row, sits dark-haired MYRNA CHOPP who insists she doesn't need glasses to see. Behind her sits two brains. PAT HEROD-a farmer who sings hill-billy songs beauti- fully, and blonde HELENA CHARSZEWSKE, who keeps drawing airplanes all day long. Next, there is Pee Wee DIANA ADORANTI, whose long lashes are the envy of us all, followed by our class rep., BARB HUDECHI, who gets 96 in Physics just for laughs. She plays a mean sax too, as well as loving pistaschio. Next, tiny DOLORES MORIN who can't wait for the Friday night dance. Followed by our Geometry whiz with the lovely En lish accent. EDNA GIARDENELLO. Next, anotfliier Pius X Patron, auburn ELLEN KOEN. In the second row, first seat, sits starry-eyed LILLIAN DOUCETTE, notre petite Francaise fillette. Cute MARY ANN STANKO in front of me will probably use her long nails if I don't keep my feet off her seat. CAROL KELLEHER is usuallyefound talking to MELODY about Senior Basketball. Followed by our second vice-pres., LORI GIAVEDONI, who loves to hear about Charles the Great in History. Blonde GAIL CRECI-IIOLO answers every question in French with a je ne sais pas . In the third row, first seat, sits BARB CRON K, who can translate anything in Latin -the dead language-and howl Followed by BEV- ERLY RICHARDS, who wishes that Pythagoras had not invented his Theorem. Tall BEV SWICK, favour- ite expression: Yes, I see that, but don't you think . . . . JUDY ALLAN who lives On the Water- front , commutes to school every moming. Next, The Orbit, 1957-1958 MAUREEN CLUSHMAN cant understand whv French words aren't spoken the way they are written. Behind her ROSS DELANEY'S rosy cheeks turn white at the mention of a Physics test. Followed by JOAN NICHOL, who just can't seem to remember History dates. HELEN COSTIE who sits in the first seat, fourth row, has two favourite subjects, food and sleep. ln turn followed by my locker mate, AN- NETTE MAURO. If her marks aren't good it's my fault, because my books on top keep falling on her head. Next, two girls who really have a talent for dancing, BABS MCKIE and LEONA FEENEY, who is constantly being reminded . . . Now Leone! Fol- lowed in turn by another Geometry whiz and Basket- ball player, ALEX KOROBHEN. MARILYN ELLIS, behind her, is always up on the latest fashions. ln the fifth row, first seat, petite DIANA CADOT dreams away till 3.20. Followed by two talented girls in the band, blonde IRENE O'CONNOR and dark JUDY HARRINGTON. Another girl who plays a mean clarinet, RUTH CROBBE. Next, there's blonde CAROL MENDEUI-I, whose favourite town, for some unknown reason, is Harrow. LEE MORI, who follows, has no patience with people who won't eat spaghetti without meatballs. Here's also ALICE RYCE, who often gets kidded about her shaggy bangs. Last, but not least, there is a real jewel among the crowd . . . our teacher, MISS BARRY. For in my heart there will always be A place for you girls of I1-C I'll nevelrl fprget that Wednesday night I got the c 1 s, When you gave me the tulips and daffodils.

CLASS 12-3 The best CD class in the school is 12-3. You're skeptical? Just ask home-room teacher FATHER BIANCHI. Now take TOM NICRO whose ambition is to be stick boy for the lWontreal Canadiens. Then there is FRANK MAGRIN whose present occupation is class clown. According to NIR. SHAVV, BOB MEI is the end Cend of humanityb. BUDDY PELISSIER, our class historian, says: I love 'em all. Our class is made up of almost half of the senior football team this year, namely: JOHN and BOB BEN, the most unidentical twins in Hamilton: BOB MAHLER who just loves teachers: BARRY REPA the team sky- scraper: PAUL HOGAN with the football slogan: 'fc'mon you phoniesug PHIL MAZZA carries a lot of weight in our class: and LEN HUCHYNSKI, who is learning to fly, and known to a select group as Pigeon , This year we also have a number of students who would honour any class-room. STEVE BOLOGH known as Peaches, is believed to have a future position in some downtown office sharpening pencils: JOHN GREBENC thinks his Consul will go eighty Cin lowD. DOWNES likes motorcycle boots and ivy- league vests. TAZZEO wishes to become the Dic- tator of Sicily in 1986. SNOW and SOMERS supply a contrast but we all love both. Our class midget KEN KEARNS shows a great interest in mechanical devices. HARDMAN, our class courier, always has first news first. JOHN PENNINGTON is our very special waterboy.

Class lklission Representative is ROSS CMouseD BARLOW, some- body's answer to Rocco Perri. He raffles off hot watches, lighters and jewellery every Monday morn- ing. He has a partner in crime, namely REAGEN CI3atsD DEVINE. This boy taught the little leaguers how to shoot pool during a public-speaking class: MAILLOUX, COUGHLIN and CHENERY unani- mously agree this is very educational. The class does have some culture though - GARBAS aud DROTAR prove to be up-and-coming musicians. DENNIS GARBAS is also our class guide . . . the blind leading the blind? Turning to athletics we also have several repre- sentatives. KIRK and WILCOX are sensational foot- ball rookies. PAUL SZEP, JOHN MCCOLL and VARIO GRANDOMENICO Cthe Mediterranean Irishmanj represent Iunior Football. Senior Water- polo men are CLAUDE BLAIS and VIC VERTICCHIO. TOM BROOKS of the Junior Waterpolo team is captain and led his team mates to Page Seventy-two slaughter every Wednesday' afternoon. .TIM GLEN is our man for hockey. He can be found at six in the morning burning up the ice at Hamilton Forum. The rest of the class also demonstrates hobbies. CLIFFE and CLAIRMONT for example, seem to have a growing business manufacturing absentee slips. MIKE LEANARD Cwhile polishing his motor- cycle bootsl tirelessly watches KOVACS and BROWN practise yogi. They have perfected sleep- ing in Latin class with their eyes open. MORABITO and MCDERMOTT you will be happy to hear are still petitioning for a coffee break at 10.30 a.m. FURYES and OSIOR study Chinese at night school, whereas ALLEN and BASWICK have resorted to Shlabbovian. BOB CTwo Tonl PETRIE and FRED TAYLOR still practise wrestling, and remarkably it's FRED that gets crushed in the process. Last, but by no means least, are the class Pogo's, JOHN RAINER and DAN MOSER. We feel sorry for their elevator shoes that get trampled on during class changes. The preciding was a partially fictitious description of our class. Thank goodness, you weren't there!

CLASS 11-4 The scene is laid in the teachers' room at any time of any day during the school year. One professor Cpronounced pro-fess-eur D, a look of horror on his face, rises and says: I have a period in X1--l. The other teachers look sympathetically at the latest victim and sigh sorrowfully. VVhat is the cause of this feel- ing of depression? l really don't know. Permit me to escort you through this classroom which lies in the dungeons of G.H.S. Opening the door, one is greeted by screams, groans, shrieks, a symphony of thuds and crashes, and the other cus' tomary sounds which accompany deep study and concentration. Within our four walls we have a number of wacky citizens, and the following lines will introduce most of them to you. There is Victor Vere who is auditing his classmates for the vocal spot in his band. They all say that Paul Loosemore has the job clinched. The runners-up in the vocal contest include Steve Vickers, Larry Baird, Fred Bart, Pat Cooper and Probert Dairs, George Bugiardini, the Fernchman with the Huid vocabulary, is another, one sentence from him and it seems like a rainy night in Rio. Talking about jokers, we have a lad here by the name of Greg CGrazy Legsl Paupst, who, together with CRudolphj Brunetti, CNosyD Morelli, CMooseD Nanuza and CLazyD Kozlowski, are the little angels of the room- black angels that isl But Di Domenico, alias The Gimp , beats them all. Now on the peaceful side, we're wondering what's troubling Allen, Demers and The Orbit, 1957-1958 i Fernandez. They appear composed on the exterior, but you can take a guess what's inside. It seems as if the Maple Leaf Gardens are paying off Gasy and Gaspari the way they're bragging about the Leafs. The Fatfreld-lXlcBatt feud is nothing compared to the battels of the lohn Sikolich Clulius GaesarD and Al hlcGaul CNapoleon Bonapartel. VVe also have a cricket fan in the class by the name of Jeffrey Smith. It is believed that Gasse and Dairs are filing for ltalian citizenship. If you have never seen blusters, take a walk into our room and see the way lklister Purtill razzes Kolitch, Lyons, Platt, and Steedg it will kill youl Our great QD group leader, Paul Vvilliams, is continually forgetting the attendance book in another room. He only wants to get a drink of water. VVe also have a group called The Three Musketeers , made up of CLucky GasturaD, Brian O'Brien and Mark lVlekez. ln our midst are some outstanding personalities such as Stan Qumbol Kosakowski Clnterscholastic All-Star GuardD and Lou CThe BeatD larabeck Cex-Westdale Starb then there's our great junior football star, CGolden BoyD Walt Starling, and the featherweight champion, CBlue LineD lVlcVey. Oh yes, thereis another 'loe Dimaggio in our class, Mr. Wonderful himself-Pat O,Day. Oh yes, l forgot one more person, joe CSabuD Iannuzzi. His one ambition is to collect his pigmy tribe and take over the school. Well, this finishes our roundup for another year, so, on this line, we'll hang our close. Page Seventy-three THE GRADUATES OF 1958, CATHEDRAL HIGH The Dedication to me of THE ORBIT for 1958 is an honour for which I am deeply grateful. In expressing thanks for this signal privilege, I do so with full cognizance of what THE ORBIT represents. It is the symbol of a renowned school, and the voice and record, in story and picture, of its graduating class. How truly has the little acorn grown to a mighty oak! ltlfho could have prophesied, in the days of the first graduating class of St. 11fIary's High, that the insignificant, struggling school would achieve such marvellous growth and that it would become one of the foremost Catholic educational institutions of our country? Today its graduates fill with distinction positions of influence and respon- sibiliy in Church and State. As priests they serve God not only in Ontario and other portions of Canada, but also as His missionaries in various parts of the world. As Catholic layrnen they have carried the name and fame of Cathedral High into every Held of culture, professional and com- mercial endeavour. The great cities of this continent, as well as the humblest towns, have witnessed their success and their integrity. The pattern and traditions they have established are yours to maintain and enhance. As you go forth to join their ranks, do not forget the debt you owe to those who, under God, have made possible your Catholic education and trainingf Thanh Him for the brave prelates and layiuen who, with courage and foresight, launched our school nearly fifty years ago. Praise Him for the Bishops, Clergy and parents whose sacrifices and planning have given us a magnificent school with so worthy a record. Ash Hinz to bless the projected Bishop Ryan High School and to hasten the day when it's reality will crown the work and gladden the heart of the good Bishop whose name it will bear. May God shower His graces upon you, Graduates of 1958. llfhenever you go or whatever you do, may He always keep you faithful to the spiritual lessons received in your Alma Mater. And may our Immaculate Motlier, to whom your Year 1958 is so dear, protect you during life and lead you safely to her Son. . ' X A Brief History of Monsignor Anderson . . . Editors Note: Monsignor Anderson was born in Ireland and came to Hamilton in 1904. He is a mem- ber of the first graduating class of St. Mary's High Allen County Public UDIQ School, the original Catholic High School in Ham- QJOWSDSTBT SUBQI ilton. After receiving his B.A. at St. Michael's POBox 2270 College in the University of Toronto, Monsignor Fonwayne 'N 46801,2?7o Anderson entered St. Augustine's Seminary where he was ordained in 1925 by Bishop Kidd of Calgary, which diocese he had joined in the same year. He was named Chancellor of the Diocese in 1929 and Diocesan Consultor in 1930. After serving as parish priest in Taber and Drumheller, Monsignor Anderson became pastor of St. Joseph's, Calgary, in 1946, which post he now holds. He was appointed Domestic Prelate of His Holiness Pope Pius XII in 1957. Monsignor Anderson is the author of the very fine history of our school which appeared in the 1951 edition of the Orbit. P.S. He is the only member of the first graduating class! Page Two The orbit, 1957-1958 Front Row fl. to r.j - C. DiPietro, E. Wannamaker, R. Stainsby, M. White, Father Robson, P. Noon, D.

CLASS 10-1 IO-1 comprises characters of all kinds. There are the smart intelligent ones and those who have been around for a while. The first and a very nice guy is TOM SCOCCIA. I-Ie has one fault, however, being that he just cannot stand the hysterical fellow who is forever pushing his desk every which way. I-Iis name is WILLIAM REMMEER, sitting behind him, is MIKE PAVLOV and GASPER CINOg the latter, a first fate clown to be sure. Now comes a more or less intelligent row. First of all we have ERHARD WANNENMACHER who is continually driving all Scienceteachers mad. Be- hind him are ROBERT STAINSBY, PAT MALONE and PETE RICI-ITER. SILIVLOOTI is also one of the so-called intelligent QD ones of 10-1. We now come to a big joke called BRIAN HASTINGS. CARLO DIPIETRO and IOE BANNAVAGE sit behind, restraining him during Math. class. We must not forget ROBERTS and ARNOLD who always run a good crap game at the back of that row. At the top of the next row sleeps one of the most outstanding persons who ever drove a teacher crazy. Page Seventy-four ' JIM MARTIN is his name. MIKE WHITE, TOM MCPHAIL, STAN BEMBENECK and BILL VANNI follow his example. Occupying the seat at the front of the next row is DENNIS DALESSANDRO and sitting behind him is JIM MCLAUGHLIN, MIKE STARR, RODGER EORMOSI and PAT NOON, who make up the rest of the row. Ours moves like a roller-coaster. FRANK GOOD- MAN is forever pushing my desk closer and closer to the blackboard with help of course, from R. BARA- NUS, R. TOOLE, DAVID SEDORKEWIZC and CARRY I-IANICKA. Now I am going to let you in on some of the crazy capers that we pull during class. You might get ,a better description if you asked Mr. Purtill how we turned our desks around and wouldn't look at him for the rest of the period. You might also ask FATHER COTE about the time we locked him out of the Physics lab and almost blew the place up. We do turn on each other of course. For instance, it's obvious why ERI-IARD WANNENMACHER is deathly afraid of mats. We took him one gym period and rolled him up in every mat we could find. That's the class . . . a mess to be sure.

CLASS 10-2 10 2 has been labelled as one of the most unusual classes ever to be assembled by FATHER CULLA- TON'S ingenious mind. In sports activity IO-2 managed to eke out a 1-0 victory over the gallant crew of IO-5. We have only two boys representing the school on Interscholastic Sports, MIKE THOINIAS, basketball, and TONY MANIACA, football. If you ever happen to hear our roll call don't be alarmed, we are not having a united nations meeting. We have a variety of names representing various nationalities such as BLEKAITIS, STANSBY, ZIM- MERMAN, MAILLOUX, MCDONALD, MAYERS, IAKABFFY, VOLPATO, FOLK, DICENSE Cinci- dentally we do have a foreigner in our class named GRANTD. Last, but not least, EDDIE SCIME. Among this bunch of roughnecks we have the class brains: MARTIN MURPHY and WILLIAM CONNELLY by name. Now every good class has its share of clowns. First of all there's CUPIDO-he drives all the teachers to the point of frustration with his life-like childish imitations. Then there is MIELKO. Now here's a boy with a spark of genius in him. He earned for us all a school holiday with one of his so-called mild pranks on the telephone-you may recall it. Combine with him DON CMumblesD CRAWFORD, ALLEN CScottyj WHITE, and AUBREY CBaby FaceD The Orlait, 1957-1958 MOORE and you have five gallant rogues worthy to don the black and white prison wear. Last is ANDREW CLittle Rockl LAROCHELLE. His main ambition is to be a knight of the road Ca bumb. Lastly there is MR. HANNAH, our homeroom teacher, not a student by far, but among us he is considered one. He is a calm, patient man. He spends most of his time defending us against FATHER MATvTICE'S accusations. Still with this reputation, everyones happy to be in 10-2.
