Frs. Richard Sullivan and l-loward Niebling, two of Prep's confessors, are shown here in the Cathedral sacristy. Cohfessors take time out from duties. From left, they are Frs. Robert Cohan, Ernest Daley, and Joseph Reszkowski. Today's students of Prep will be tornorrow's citizens. Thus, a great responsibility is placed upon their shoulders within a few years after graduation, Realizing this, Prep tries to produce a man who knows his responsibilities and is willing to accept them. One of the most important helps in molding these young students are the confessors. These priests help the Prep student to overcome his many faults and guide him along the path to becoming an able citizen. They can be compared to the molders of the Constitu- tion - Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Beniamin Franklin - whose idea in writing the Constitution was to guide the people in a uniform government, just as the cone fessors guide the students of Prep in their development. Cr they can be compared to the great men of our coun- try, like George Vtfashington and Abraham Lincoln, who led their people on in times of strife, iust as Prep's priests of the confessional lead Prepsters through the most im- portant and impressionable years of their lives. Father Thomas Grif- fin, for several years a Prep confessor, prepares to hear confessions in the Cathedral, helping Prepsters prepare for 7 weekly Mass. 9
