PRINCIPAIJS ' Q ..a. ,--' MESSAGE l, ff, In our graduation messages this year, we stressed the point that education has to do with the growth and development of the human per- sonality. Our aim is to help you become persons, in the fullest sense of the term, capable of taking your place anywhere in society, capable at last of taking your real place with God. This task is difficult enough where even one individual is to be form- ed. lt becomes almost fearsome when the lives and minds of some 1900 individuals are concerned. In a year or so the number of Catholic High School students in Hamilton will probably be increased beyond the limit of our present calculation. Such a prospect of responsibility then could strike fear into the heart of any teacher. Iam glad to say that I am not afraid becausel know that in this society, perhaps more than in any other, we can depend upon the interest and active cooperation of most of our students. You want to be what we are trying to help you to be. As long as this situation exists working with you will be the Sweet burden and light yoke of which Our Lord speaks. J. A. Mattice

I ld' PURPOSE: METHOD: 4 d I ol el J' Z . J 5 -L 'A K 0 0' v J v- J 3 OBSERVA TION: f CONCLUSION: a ,I x X J S ITJKH - 2 To determine whether or not the Celtic Greens could win a foot- ball trophy next year, Gather Mr. Jerry Ward and about twenty-four boys from the present Grade Nine classes. Add a football, some shoulder pads, face guards, etc. Set up a schedule for practice. With such versatile players as Kawucha, Price, Loncarich, Verner, Mulli- gan, Elliott, Mio, Baine, Crabbe, Ellis, Jack, Stockton, Harper, Chesla, Collins, McLaughlin, and a quarterback like little Bill Troy, you have an excellent team. But as a precaution add such stars as Magill, Caffery, Ruffo, Hudacin, Clarke and Rodgers. When the solids begin to heat, add nine c. c. of team spirit. Then connect the bubbling mixture to three amperes of current enthusi- asm. Have Mr. Ward assisted by Mr. Nick Dowhaniuk ocach this team for about three months. Observe closely the spectacular results, 1. We observe that the after-class practices of the Celtic Greens are well attended with plenty of energy expended on calisthenics, blocking and tackling. 2. We observe that they have Wonderful team spirit, true sportsmanlike attitudes and an admirable courage to face overwhelming odds. Since the boys have these qualities, requisite training and fine attitudes, we conclude that the Celtic Greens should have a won- derful football season - and a trophy?
