To some who read these pages, it will be the oft- told accounting of things that have happened for countless years, to countless people, in countless schools throughout the land. But to us this book is something special-a going back, as it were, through the days just now gone. Yet each day left a memory with us that needs only the suggestion of a printed word or photograph to recall what we now know to have been the happiest and holiest days of our young lives. Here through the pages of this 1950 Literulae walk the many people who have helped us, encouraged us, directed us, inspired us. Bishop Gannon, the members of the Faculty, our parents. fellow students, and friends of the school-all are here for us to see whenever we leaf through the pages of the book. They are the ones we remember, and these are the things we recall as another year finds us finished and done with our Prep School days. Crowning the entire effort is the figure of One who has given all, even His Son, that we might know the happiness of spiritual regenera- tion through the Catholic heritage which is ours. Our life is just begin- ning, you say? Most certainly it is! We hope that success may ever follow us. Only the success which we envision is not a quantitative evaluation in terms of worldly achievements. These latter we accept most humbly, as we strive for that deeper, more significant accomplish- ment-a Christian life wherein we grow in stature as we deepen in our love for God. The Class of 1950 is proud to present this Literulae to the public. We hope that you will forbear from being overly critical of our efforts, that you will find many hours of pleasure in the reading of Our Prep Story. -.QU .fdflmznzdtmfzon CL. 44eJ .

O -F E Ecclesiu Havens- Ecclesia Discens Behind the splendor of our school, the achieve- ments of our graduates, and the strong spiritual attitude that is prevalent in the Prep school, stands the impressive figure of our beloved founder, Bishop Iohn Mark Gannon. A wise man who long ago foresaw the need of a Catholic high school in Erie, the Bishop has devoted his life to the fulfillment of that dream. Over the years, his vision in founding this school has been reflected in the glowing ac- complishments of its students and graduates. He has watched it spark and sputter in the coals of infancy, and finally flare up in the flame and bril- liance that is the Prep school of today. His unceasing efforts and constant encourage- ment serve as an inspiration to all his followers, while his knowledge and understanding steadies the hand of education in our school. Bishop Gannon inaugurated the traditional Quarter Sessions as a means of rewarding the scholastic giants for their long hours of study, and no one is happier than he to see boy after boy kneel, kiss the episcopal ring, and receive an honor card. His beaming smile at such times leaves an impression of sincerity that can never be erased. A most ardent promoter of Prep activities, he can be seen almost every day watching practice sessions, walking about the school, or just standing proudly before his window, looking out over the campus, sending out his love and his heart to every one of us. We can never forget, nor ever repay the kind- ness and generosity our Bishop has tendered us. Long will we cherish his Friday morning medita- tions that were overflowing with all the gracious- ness, wisdom, and advice that he could summon. His deeds will age and sweeten with the pas- sage of time, as will the spirit of his endeavor, which greatly overshadows the material results of so noble a cause. Loved by all those who know him, admired by those who see him, respected by those who hear him, he is the very essence of humility. His somber eyes and calm, unflustered manner reveal in part his venerable personality. He is our spiritual leader who teaches us by word and example the important lesson of true Christian living. While we feel that these few words are totally inadequate for a true expression of our deep grati- tude, the Class of 1950 wishes, nevertheless, to thank Bishop Gannon for all he has done for us. Words are often misused, misinterpreted, misplaced. These words, however ineffectual, are a most sin- cere and heartfelt attempt by us to render a just tribute to a great man, a noble character, and a fine Bishop. sl Mosr Rav EDWARD P MCMANAMAN DD I-luxrlrary Brshop of Erie The Lrterulae salutes the many prrestly men entrusted wrth the admrnrstratron of our parrshes rn Erre We know the efforts of these pastors are responsrble for the trarnrng re cerved rn parochral schools, for the trnancral assrstance whrch makes our Prep educatron possrble We thank them for therr counsel and gurdance whrch keeps us mrndful of our dutres as larthful Catholrc leaders In tnbute to them, we salute the newest of therr group Father Alfred M Watson has been Rector of St Peter's Cathedral for over a year We remember hrm better as Assrstant Headmaster of Cathedral Prep And whrle we regretted hrs removal from thrs responsrble posrtron, we were overloyed that 'hrs promotron should be to the frrst parrsh of the Drocese, the Cathedral Father Watson strll marntams an rnterest rn Prep and rts actrvrtres As Presrdent of the Alumnr Assocratron, he keeps rn Contact wrth the Prep students of the past, now scattered throughout the land Through hrm we are grateful to all our pnests They wrll never be forgotten rn our darly prayers 0ur Friends 0ur Pastors Closely assocrated wrth the Prep school and keenly rnterested rn rts achrevements rs Brshop Edward P McManaman Instrumental rn the constructron of the school Brshop Mc Manaman was hrst known to us as the Rector of the Cathedral and as a memb r of the Prep Executrve Board We now see hrm as Auxrlrary Brshop of Erre A speaker of great abrlrty Brshop Mc Manaman has a deep rnterest rn the program of speech acfrvrty at Cathedral Prep He founded the Brshop McManaman medal for oratory whrch 1S awarded at graduatron trme to the wrnner of the annual Oratorrcal Contest at Prep We are proud to count so noble a person among our frrends and we srncerely hope that hrs rnterest rn our school shall contrnue rn the years to come Rav ALFRED M WA'rsoN Rector of St Peter s Cathedral Q 1 if? ,ig , L 1 4 P - . mln W ' 'V , i 1.. , 1.' k . , Agfa? , , I - 4 D V I - ' 0 4 . r.

These are the places which many of us saw almost daily as we trudged to and from school. That is why they will always be so im- portant to us, even though they may seem so casual and lifeless to others. It is strange how the mind will hold to something like cr picture and make it the occasion for rebuilding in imagination that which once existed in fact. Here we have just a few of these memories gathered together as a means of giving sub- stance to the ideals of our youth. Who could ever forget the stately Cathedral or the Bishop's Residence?

That only serves to emphasize the fact that Bishop Iohn Mark Gannon spared nothing in his desire to have the finest for his Prep School. The beautiful lawn. the Gothic architecture, and the towering crosses combine to express in material form the purpose of Prep in the City of Erie. It is the best school for the Catholic boy. Long hours of plan- ning and many years of discussion went into the construction of this building. We give you on these pages some of the views which make Prep stand out as a thing of beauty and magnificence in this area, a tribute in stone and mortar to the efforts of those who built it. This view from Tenth Street brings into focus the Athletic Department. The place of physical education and training in the program of the Prep boy is also a vital part of his education. -s f ' I Am! the nleal was made stone Students hle up the broad walk into the central doorway whlch opens on the mam corridor next to the Headmaster s Office Soft are footfalls and the talking of these lads This entrance on Ninth Street leads to the classrooms and to the Office of Educatlon The magmflcent window points out the location of the Library on the second floor of the school 532 hm!

Capable of almost any type of work, the girls can be counted on to serve at a banquet, advise on Prom decora- tions, or pick out a gilt for some ailing student or teacher. Their attendance to duty and spirit of helpfulness will long be appreciated. Prep. A tireless worker in an all but thankless job. Father lim strives to help players, coaches, faculty. and fans get the most out of Prep sports. We thank him for his efforts which have contributed so im- measurably to our athletic success. BELICIUN HND SOCllll. SCIENCES The most important department in the curricu- lum at Cathedral Prep is Religion. The objective of the course is to give the student adequate knowl- edge of the Religious truths of his Catholic faith. We pride ourselves in the fact that so many Prepsters catch the Religious spirit and make a sincere effort to live as practical Catholics. Here we are taught the basic principles by Priests who have dedicated their lives to knowing and serving God. The Sacraments, Friday Mass, and weekly religious bulletins give adequate ave- nues of expression for what we have learned in formal classroom sessions. Supplementing the program in Religion is the course in Social Studies. Here we learn of the major forces which have shaped the lives of men from the beginning. The story of our own national development into the great United States of the twentieth century unfolds before us. Thus equipped with satisfactory moral and historical background, we are prepared for the Senior course in Social Problems where the philosophy of Catholic life is presented to us as a means of finding proper moral and social application in current world and national problems. How well we learn to follow these teachings in Religion and Social Studies will bear heavily upon our material success in this life and govern our place in eternity. Perhaps the entire purpose behind our education at Prep can best be expressed in the words: As you live, so shall you die! Rev. IOHN D Dnmszrwsxr Rsv. IOSEPH T. DUNN A.B., S.T.B. O.S.F.S., A.B., M.E.

Or perhaps the thought of lunch to follow makes them happy. 53.9 Basic courses in languages contribute much to the training of a student. English, Latin, Greek, German, French, and Span- ish have an important place in the school curricula. Facility in speaking, correctness in expression, and precision in writing might be termed the objectives for which we continually strive. To know well one's own language and to have a command of the basic rules of another is to open doors to a greater degree of literary culture and refinement. The priests and nuns, who lead us through the oral and written exercises typical of a good course, know that theirs is a department which strength- ens the entire scholastic reputation ofa school. Who does not admire the man who can express himself intelligently and appealingly? That he may have a command of another tongue with its aid to basic word concepts and origins is to insure ability in his own language, Words repre- sent ideas. He who can read, speak, and write his ideas force- fully and correctly is a man to be respected, admired. and followed. Rrv. Rosznr I. REILLY A.B., M.A. Rsv. Inns E. Svsnnv AB., S.T.L. Rav. Enwm I.

MATHEMATICS Nothing is more exacting in the field of human knowledge than the science of Mathematics. Here the student must work with measurable and observ- able data which follow fixed principles. He acquires an appreciation of logical procedure through the theorems and propositions which comprise the world of mathematical laws. The mathematician must state in accurate definite numerical terms the require- ments for a given project. To vary or err, however slight, is to endanger the final result, be it only the solution to a given problem or the more important construction of a technical, mechanical nature. Mathematics at Prep carries the student from beginnings in Algebra through Geometry, Trigonom- etry, and Solid Geometry to the senior course in Advanced Mathematics. To have completed the entire course is to have a thorough and more than adequate preparation for college Mathematics. Moreover, the logical thought procedure which Mathematics can give to the student is something which will prove of inestimable value in daily lite. A man who reasons clearly and correctly is a valued member of society. A mathematical training can aid immeasurably in the attainment ot even this latter objective. hx 'C l, SCIENCES In the modern world of today a knowledge of the intricasies of science is essential. At Prep the scientific course is designed to give the student the maximum of knowledge in the various divisions of the scientific department. Every possible aid to edu- cation is utilized in the instructing of the vital chem- ical and material processes that make up much of our scientific industries. Moving pictures, explaining the processes that go into the production of our every-day implements, are shown frequently to the students, The Biology classes as well, share in the usage of modern aids to education. The Prep gradu- ates fit easily into the pattern of the speed-con- scious, ultra-scientific world. Their training in these exacting subjects will serve them in good stead in future years. it yt Ak' l l ly V'llfl f linrtfglnl lnfztrurgts his Sophomore English s'u- flr-nt: In tl :IH nn rt nf' uv In rj v r mf mndr-llnq His interesting ClGSS'21 lwrvf- latll I P I II l Ill th .. ., tr- 1 4--, 1-f ff various branches of English Ji ,gi M1 'CJ Srsrzn M.

Each of these subjects is an integral part ot the lite and spirit of the Prep School, contributing in its own specific way to the general educational pattern. Typing is taught, not as a commercial subject, but rather as an aid to the student in future academic work. The Glee Club and Band provide musical out- lets tor the students. Our ever-improving athletic teams bear testimony to the success of our physical education program. It provides recreation for those who are not members oi competitive teams, and gives them a sense of fair play that will prove advantageous in later life. An exacting subject, English requires an exacting teacher.

We salute them for a fine piece of work in leading and representing us during the past year, our most important at Prep. 5 Our hard-working Senior Class Ad- visor, Father Daniel Martin, has guided the Class of '50 over many rough spots during the past two years. His confidence and personal in- terest in all members of the class has undoubtedly been the driving force behind our successful years at Prep. We, the Senior Class, leave behind us the work. the joys, and the achievements of our eventful years at Prep. It is with heavy hearts, yet fond memories. that we depart. We sincerely trust that our record has been satisfactory for both students and faculty. Never to be forgotten is the interest that our teachers have shown. Their every lesson, every word of advice, was given to help us in the difficult years before us. While many of us may have fallen short of great expectations, we have tried to live up to most of the demands imposed upon us. The long list of Senior honor students attests to the fact that '50 was not wanting in intellectual ability. Results of the annual NROTC competitive examinations showed a larger number of successful examinees than ever before. Yes, the class will leave behind a more than satisfactory scholastic record. On the spiritual side of the ledger, we more 26 than made up for any shortcomings in other depart- ments. We feel, as do many others, that it was the fine example of the Senior Class which insured the tremendous success of our annual Retreat. We are proudest of this fact-mainly because it shows that we are able to apply well the good things we have learned, that our religious training at Prep has not been in vain. Finally, in all humility again, we leave to Prep its first scholastic football championship in the his- tory of the school. The Spirit of '50, with the loyal help from underclassmen, brought success at last for all of us. The support of fans, faculty, and students was a great incentive for winning. Th-ese, then, are our accomplishments. We leave Prep as wiser and better young men. That is as it should be. We only pray that this spirit will drive all of.us to our ultimate goal, happiness on earth and God in Heaven.

Daniszewski, Dean of English and Advisor to the Rambler Staff, spends his spare moments di- recting the Iunioi Class. His organi- zational ability and tireless energy are responsible for welding the Class of '51 into a cohesive unit. The Prep These alert students form the quartet of Iunior Class Officers with lreading from left to right! Michael Torrelli as Treasurer, Leonard Cyterski as Vice-President, Paul DeSante as Presi- dent, and Mario Scibetta as Secretary. A busy third year makes many demands upon their time, but they keep to the fore in all phases of Iunior Life. Wh! X .F The September sun rose in a blaze ol glory and portended a bright year for the Sons of '5l. 'l'hough there were a few dark, gloomy days, the Iunior year. for the most part, was colored with blue skies and golden sunshine. We welcomed our third Advisor, Father Iohn Dan- iszewski, who was always ready and willing to help us with our multiple problems lreal and imaginaryl. Within a month, we had chosen Paul De Sante, Pres- identg Len Cyterski, Vice-Presidentp Mike Torrelli, Treasurerg and Mario Scibetta, Secretary. Athletically, the Iuniors excelled, especially on the gridiron, where Len Cyterski and Mike Torelli were All-City selections, and on the wrestling mats, where several Iuniors sparked the grunt and groan artists to the most successful campaign in Prep's history. There was not a varsity sport in which a Iunior did not play a key role. Our Press Dance with its delicious luncheon, the 58 Christmas party featuring our own name band, and our colossal Iunior Prom proved we were not only entertainers par excellence but also financial wizards with high business acumen. The Sons of '51 did not bypass other Prep activi- ties, such as the band, clubs, and intramural sports. There were many Iuniors represented among the winners of the National Poetry Contest and the Rambler Litterathon. Our Rambler did not take a back seat to that of previous years. Our proudest achievement was the organization, early in September, of the Minute Men, who made it a practice to visit Our Lord for at least a minute during the noon-hour. So, as the sun sets, the Sons of '51 feel a mellow- ness around the heart and a satisfying peace of mind and soul. And in the darkness ol night, we feel, too, a fear ol the new and greater responsibilities of our Senior year. Minute Men ol '51 These apparently happy Iuniors are in lor a sad awakening, we fear. Taken just before a semester examination, the pic- ture is deceiving. The boys were probably bolstering one another lor a fate worse than death. If 9 I L This is the Class which spends its time measuring itself for the title of Seniors Meanwhile, the Class of '50 experiences the strange feeling of someone's breathing upon its collective neck, as '51 looks to the day when its members will walk the corridor with a lordly Senior strut. Chemistry, English, Alge- bra Ill, Trigonometry, Solid Geometry, and Modern Languages keep the Iuniors quite occupied in the realm of the scholastic, while the Rambler affords them the opportunity to demonstrate their ability in literary competition. Iunior athletes gave inval- uable assistance to Prep's Varsity teams and solace to the coaches in the fact that they would be around for one more year. Then with the Iunior Prom as the crowning event of the school year, the Class of '51 will graduate, as it were, to the long-awaited status of worthy Seniors. First Row, left to right: T. Lippert, E.

His affa- bility and sprightly nature fit him well for the task of guiding the Class of '52 through its second year at Prep. 'V The Crew al '52 With the summer over we, as ambitious, eager Sophomores, trudged back to the halls of learning of Cathderal Prep for another year in our secondary education. Proud to rank as the largest class in Prep history. our pride received a jolt when we found our class outnumbered by the incoming Freshmen. To soothe our hurt feelings we initiated those youngsters with lipstick and perfume in accordance with tradition. From our earliest days at Prep, we have been foremost in scholastic achievements. A large num- ber of first and second honor cards gladdened us each Quarter Sessions, while one of our rank, Raoul Yochim, was awarded the scholastic sweater. Leading in sports are members of the Class of '52 with Al Hatkevich, Don Wolf, Caesar Montevecchio and Norm Zmyslinski participating in varsity sports. The dancing class prepared us for our first social venture, the traditional Sophomore dance, Holiday for Hearts, featuring Les Sharr. Our sincere thanks to Father Groucutt, our class advisor. He has inspired us in many undertakings throughout the year and has won much admiration from us all. Our class elections took place early in the year with the following results: lames Toohey, as presi- dent, Thomas Pianka, vice-president, Don Wolf. Treasurer, and Norman Zmyslinski, secretary. After we graduate and take up our life Work, we will always look back on this year with much satis- faction spiritually, scholastically, and socially.

Its beginning is highlighted by sweet revenge, wherein Sophomores initiate Freshmen in the mys- teries of peanut-rolling, fantastic make-up, and out- landish attire. Teachers, homework, and class recita- tions soon settle the yearlinqs as they fall into the general routine of school life. The dancing classes. held over a period of sixteen weeks, prepare them for their February Sophomore Dance, Holiday for Hearts. In the meantime their athletes drive to Iun- ior Varsity championships and presage still greater laurels for Prep teams during the next two years. Iune finds them more than ready to become real upperclassmen - in every sense of the word. vm. wwf?-r The Sophomores inaugurate their social life with sixteen les- sons in the art of dancing.

The Hall - wa y Murlr ', ,1 Q 4'4! .e I' Q5 QS blank expressions present a true picture of the early morning cheerfulness displayed ry by Prep students. Apparently on a sit-down strike, these four weary young men, for some Freshly Spaken Al Wedzik, lames Lynch, Richard Salamon, and Iohn Mraz make up the first slate of class officers elected by the Class of '53. In the order of their names and pictures, you have the Treasurer, President, Vice-President, and Secretary. Primary task of these young men is to lead their classmates through the orientation year which makes real Prep men out of the young lads who first reported to this school last September. We, the Class of 1953, have gone far in preserving the pattern of success that has been so firmly mold- ed by those who have gone before us. As strong in spirit as we are in numbers, we face the future with the same determination and desire to succeed that has characterized our first year at the Prep school. Scholastically, we have more than held our own against the combined intelligentsia of the upper classes. Adjusting ourselves to the routine of high- school life, we soon learned that the intelligent and industrious student is the one who will make his presence felt at the Prep school. At Quarter- Sessions, we took a back seat to no one as we filed up to receive our awards from His Excellency, the Bishop. Athletically, we made the school sit up and take notice as we rolled up high scores and captured the I.V. football crown. True, the Sophomores played also, but we feel that our Freshman foot-ballers I K Ml Father Francis D. Gallagher has the difficult task of fitting inexperienced Freshmen into the Prep mould. The fact that he is also Prefect of Disci- pline seems to impress the young- sters with the necessity for observing rules. played an all-important part in winning the cham- pionship. The same is true of the other sports in which we participated. Our boys will be a sound foundation on which will rest the achievements of future ath- letic teams. Spiritually, 1949-50 has been a banner year for our class. The Annual Retreat was somewhat new to us, but we realized the spirit of such a retreat is the spirit of the school, and so we went on in the footsteps of our Senior brothers, Our attendance at Friday Mass was extremely notable. Such a famous tradition was firmly grasped in the minds and hearts of the members of our class. All this we have accomplished. But that is behind us, and we now have eyes for the future alone. It is a difficult path, but with the help of God, we will follow it as best we can. 'T i. L wif -55 1 1 Af, .3 7 .-5,1 ,. Q- '..

Here you see three triskier young ones as they indulge in a little wres- tling match in one of their favorite pastures, the locker well. Calling all monitors! Freshmen are polite young men-at least for their first month in Prep. Then, after they have been sub- jected to great humiliation and discomfort by their elder brethren, they begin to assert themselves. But such a rebellious spirit is short-lived. The first quar- ter examinations are upon them, and they are duly impressed with the actuality of study. It is only after they have weathered such typical phenomena peculiar to their state that they become real Prep men-some growing up quickly, others maturing less suddenly, within the Shadow of the Cross. They will do well to keep that Cross as the symbol of what is right and as a beacon for what they must strive to attain in the next three years. W, Y 1 , ' ' 5 I e .v -QA 1 W J tv A i 1 f .

True to the tradition which he established when he founded the school, Bishop Gannon is never too busy or preoccupied to give his Friday morning meditation to his Prep boys. Thus each Friday is a high point in the religious liie of Cathedral Prep. A daily visit with Our Eucharistic Lord is the sole pledge made by stu- dent members of the Blessed Sacrament Club.

This year, St. Mark's is celebrating its fifth anni- versary as a seminary for those young men of our diocese aspiring to the holy priesthood. Founded by Bishop Gannon in 1945, St. Mark's is under the direction of Father Fitzgerald, Director, and Father Caldwell, Assistant Director. A balanced schedule lists prayer, study, work, and play in the seminarian's day. The boys are active both at St. Mark's and at Prep. The seminary has been well represented at Quarter Sessions, in the band, on the Rambler and Literulae staffs, and in intramural sports. Daily Mass and Communion, regular visits to the Blessed Sacrament, and a nightly rosary help the seminarians to follow closely in Christ's footsteps. Besides setting up a two-way P.A. system, Father Caldwell has converted a few shelves of books into a growing library to which the boys have access for materials on meditation, research, and relaxa- tion. They find television, movies, ping-pong and out- door athletics ample outlets for recreation. Even the Canasta bug has made its home there. 'I'hen, too, what court in Erie has not served as a battle ground for the green and gold-clad seminarians who have risen to great heights as a basketball powerhouse? Through the understanding and guidance ot Father Fitzgerald, the boys are drawing ever closer to their goal. Some day, God willing, they will stand at the foot of the altar and say, Introibo ad altare Dei - I will go unto the altar of God. l Seal: and You Shall Find Due recognition of scholastic ability plays an important part in the educational plan of Prep. Since the primary purpose of the school is to prepare its students for advanced training and education in the colleges and universities throughout the nation, spe- cial tribute is paid to the students who, at the end of each scholastic quarter, have earned marks above 85 lor second honors and above 90 for first. His Excellency, the Most Reverend Bishop, presides at each Quarter Sessions, makes the awards, and speaks to the student body upon the advantages of education in Catholic life. Besides the traditional Quarter Sessions, special literary contests and scho- lastic competition serve to impress the student with the importance of study in meeting the high stand- ards expected of those who attend Cathedral Prep. With the exception of religious activities, the class- room takes precedence over everything else. 1190 ,--f Senior Iohn Kelsch receives an honor card from the Most Reverend Bishop.

The Student Council of 1949-50, with its difficult task of acting as mediator between faculty and stu- dent, functioned smoothly to promote devotion to the Blessed Sacrament and to make every student con- scious of the laws of the school. The activities of this representative group of Prep- sters could not possibly be mentioned in detail. As the highlights-the Monitor System and Student Court, so well established by last year's council, were re-organized with better results than ever. However, its greatest accomplishment, for which it will long be remembered and admired, was the foundation of a Daily Visit Society. The Society was composed of students who made a short daily visit to the Cathedral during their lunch period. Under the guidance of Father Gallagher, our well- liked Pretect of Discipline, the Council handled var- ious programs and rallies. We hope that future years will see it become more proficient and that future Prepsters will be as proud of it as we have been. The Student Council - tsearedbz C. Conti, P. Desante, R. Geiger. R.

The Literulae, an annual account in picture and word of the Prep Story, was first published in 1925. In the years following this first effort, the Book has grown steadily in size and quality. Each year it becomes increasingly difficult to surpass or even equal the efforts of previous classes. However, We, the Class of '50, feel that our Literulae ranks as one of the best. We are proud of it. Our Faculty Advisor, Father Daniel Martin, is di- rectly responsible for the success and high quality of our book.

Here at Prep the student has the opportunity to engage in numerous activities as a means of giving expression to those particular talents and aptitudes which he possesses. Not only is a broad intramural and competitive program offered in athletics, but the student can also avail himself of the opportunity to engage in other types of more cultural activity. The French, Chemistry, Photography, Rifle, English, and Radio Clubs allow for a wide field of interest. The French Club aims to encourage a lively interest in this particular language and the people who claim it as a mother tongue. Through the publication work to be done at Prep, student photographers are given excellent training in the value of photographic technique.

The Radio Club offers lectures and laboratory work in this scientific field, while a completely equipped short wave station helps the amateurs learn oven more about sound waves in relation to this area of communication. Student participation in these clubs is alert, inter- ested, and keen. The success which all of these groups enjoy is an excellent indication that the educational aims and objectives of Prep are being attained through the intelligent combination of learning and doing which must characterize all real knowledge. .

In the four years since then, our band has'progressed - lit- erally - by leaps and bounds. It has provided us with a ready source of entertainment at rallies and football games. It now boasts of close to sixty mem- bers, and has everything from a piccolo to a glock- enspeil. Due credit must be given to the band's faculty advisor, Father Gallagher, and to its most able dir- ector, Mr. Francis Gerzina. Gertzie could be found every afternoon at Lord's Field teaching the boys how you march in the army. Yes, music really does hath charm to soothe the savage beast.

Many a time when our hopes were sagging, their quick shout of Let's go Ramb- lers soon rose to a thunderous roar and sent us on to victory. We stop for a minute to thank these same cheerleaders who yelled themselves hoarse calling for cheers until the last few seconds of the game vanished into the past. To them we give credit and our thanks for keeping the fiery torch of Cathe- dral Prep burning high and wide across our city.

The crowning achievement of a most spectacular football season came when our once-defeated foot- ballers won the City Championship. For the first time in the history of Prep football, the Champion- ship cup rests in our ever-growing trophy case. With the help of God and Our' Blessed Mother we have surmounted all odds and emerged as Champions. In 1948 with the Championship in sight, we lost a heartbreaker to Tech, 14-U. However, as Walt Stros- ser put it, we will be back. We came in 1949- to steamroller all opposition. Teamwork, the will to win, and faith in prayer brought us that Championshipg and we will fight as hard to keep it as we did to get it. The Trophy is here to stay!

The student body also put its heart and soul behind the team and voiced its encouragement and approval at game after game throughout the season. In the opening game of the season at Donora, the Ramblers were scored upon on the very first play from scrimmage. That bad break might have demor- alized other teams, but the boys remained cool. Per- haps they thought of Danny Meahl lying in the hos- pital injured, yet praying his heart out for the boys on the field. They came back an inspired team and beat Donora by a comfortable margin. It was little things like that throughout the year that made our team what it was. A keen sense of loyalty to the team, to the school, and to Our Sav- iour characterized each and every game. The boys attended Mass and received Commun- ion on the day of every game, Thus a realization of the factors that make up a wining team was evinced in the remarkable team spirit. All these and many Below we see Len Cyterski about to cut back after receiving a pass against Donora. The Ramblers came from behind to rout the Donoraites 23-7 in the season's opener. other traits brought us our first Championship. Whenever possible, the entire team saw action. Unlike many teams in the city, we believed that if a boy went to practice every day and worked hard, he deserved a chance to play. The distribution of letters was a major problem, but the spirit of self- sacrifice solved that problem easily. Vtlhenever an underclassman and a Senior both deserved a letter. the underclassman invariably declined the letter in favor of the Senior who had played his last year of football. This, then, is the story of the Ramblers of '49 as they spelled it out in large letters, for the first time at Prep?-CITY CHAMPIONS-1949. The team possessed an explosive quality which found them never at a loss, no matter what the score might be. Apparent defeat did not matter to these boys. Intelligent, alert, aggressive, they could be expected to wait their opporunity and then seize it. The mark of a champion is the ability to come from behind. This the Ramblers of '49 did on several occasions. Whether it be Konkol or Cyterski on an end-around, Guerrein or Torrelli on a trap, or Dal- ton or Kaiser ripping through the center, the way was always cleared for them by the yeomen work of the linemen. Spectacular, explosive-these were apt expressions to describe the Strossermen of '49. Tom Kaiser is about to be spilled by a toe-hold: but don't worry Mom, - the ground is soft.

The Prep Ramblers moved up another rung on their difficult ladder to wrestling supremacy this year as they added the Strong Vincent Colonels and the East High Warriors to their growing list of vic- tims. The team finished the season with a record of' five wins and three losses for a creditable .625 per- centage. ln accumulating the victories, the Ram- blers dumped Tech and Vincent twice while splitting with East and losing two to Academy's City Cham- pions. For the first time in Prep history, the team check- ed in with individual honors as Mario Scibetta and Ed Heubel brought home placques in the 112 and 145 pound classes respectively. Coach Father Geddes is to be complimented for his work with the grunt and groan boys. Since its inception at Prep, wrestling has steadily progressed until it ranks as one of the more interesting sports activities in the schoolboy circuit. Prep's growing strength can be directly attributed to Father Tom who has kept the lads busy learning the fine points of the game and has kept an alert eye open for new talent among the students. Perhaps next year his dream of a championship will materialize, as his boys draw ever closer with each new season. WLM WW Kneeling, Ieit to right: Mgr. T. Ehrman, I. Scorse, G. McMichael, W.

Last year, with Ierry Widmann, Art Hilinski and Pat Morrow leading the way, the boys ignored the odds against them and came out third in the City Meet. The squad, the first at Prep with four full seasons of track, has already displayed the profits of its training, winning consistently against teams with high local and state ratings. Their good record cannot be attributed to the efforts of any one man, but rather to the work and achievements of the entire group. Coached by Walt Strosser, the boys eliminated their early season flaws and went on to Win. Nor did their efforts go unnoticed. In meet after meet, the team seemed to falter, then gather strength anew as they heard their buddies cheering them on.

The entire student body filled the gymnasium with a crowd which was anything but friendly to the fac- ulty team. Fathers Enright, Sperry, Reilly, Geddes, and Lohse, greatly aided by Coaches Strosser, Det- zel, and Robie, with Alumnus Iack Flanagan as a ringer, gave the youngsters quite a battle. The game ended in a 40-40 tie, with Student Council members Guerrein, Crotty, Konkol, Cyterski, Wolf, Carey, Kaiser, DeSante, and Toohey loudly protest- ing that they were willing to keep going. The Fac- ulty, however, was strangely silent on the over-time idea, Official Scorer Msgr. McDonald, along with offi- cials Fr, Fitzgerald, Pat Dolan, and Al Hatkevich, kept the game as well in hand as could be expected. It was their constant vigilance which assured the crowd that only every other play would be con- tested. ,Ai Walt Strosser prepares to shoot a foul-one of the many called during the game.

Dramatics made rapid strides in the past year. Prep-Villa began it in November with the dramatization of the best- seller, Seventeenth Summer. A story of teen-age puppy love, the play, starring Ierry Kingston and Iim Kaveney, was ably handled by a competent cast under the Villa Directress Sr. Maura Ann. Then came the Senior play, 'lRoom Service, with Father Martin as director. The cast for this mirthtul, rollicking story of Broadway was excellent. There was some speculation about the play's being expressly written for the particular characters who were in it. With Red Blakely in the lead, ably assist- ed by Seniors Carey, Bougie, Kearney, Beyer, Sulli- van, DeSantis, Parsons, Rahner, Kelsch, Geiger, Hal- ler, and Borgoyne, Room Service drew capacity crowds for three nights.
