CHS speech team launches year in winning style Speech festival activities began in November, when, after eight hard weeks of constant practice, Cathedral's 30 candidates entered Diocesan competition. When eliminations were announced, 100 per cent of the CHS team had made it through these preliminaries. The thirty finalists, in early February, competed in Diocesan finals. Gold medals were awarded to 10, while 14 received silver. The top eight Diocesan medalists participated in National competition in Pittsburgh. Of these eight, three were from Cathedral. Cathedral sent 28 candidates to the tough state contest. Of these 28, four came home with medals.

Enthusiastic students follow interests through clubs CHS clubs offered a variety of interests for students. Speakers and field trips compounded the activities of the Better Business Club, while members of the Riding Club spent most of the year forming a Cathedral Mounted Drill Team, the first in Western Mass. Supplying artistic talent, the Art Service Club helped make scenery, programs, and posters whenever called upon. Red Cross was geared toward the service of others; thus they devoted their time to one project a month. Among these were making and stuffing stockings for Monson State Hospital, in addition to designing and sending valentines to the Mont Marie Infirmary. Applying the principles of amateur broadcasting, CHS Radio Club station K, UHA contacted Europe, Africa, and some US ships at sea. The Scuba Diving Club contributed to Ecology Week by cleaning Island Pond, while the girls in FTA served as teachers aides by correcting tests and designing bulletin boards. During the monthly meetings the Photography Club discussed such various subjects as focusing, types of lenses, camera models, and quality and developing of pictures. They trained to become photographers for the Chronicle or Pantherpix. 28
