Peek Into The Past A s Your School Reminisces Dorothy Schumacher ' 40 models school ' s first uniform. Twenty-five years — I just can ' t believe it. Why it seems only yesterday that pupils from Saint Augustine, Saint Cather- ine, Saint Mary Commercial, Saint Andrew, Saint Paul, Pre- cious Blood, and Saint Peter .Academies and Central Catholic and Cathedral High Schools were entering my front door. I looked at my first pupil, Dorothy Schumacher. She was an average kid, used slang, but could speak good English w ' hen she wanted. She Lked boys, of course. But things were difl ' orent then. I remember when my (Continued on Page 6) Staff Prepares New Directory A student directory is being compiled by the SHAMROCK staff to go on sale Nov. 1. This will provide the faculty and student body with easy ac- cess to names, addresses, and telephone numbers of CC per- sonnel. The directory will be bound in four volumes, each class sepa- rately.

SHAMROCK September 10, 1963 Message from the Principal It ' s Great To Be Alive Would you like a ride to the moon? Or perhaps just a quick trip around the world? Every child dreams of fairy lands and takes imaginary trips to the land of Oz. While we are growing: up, the world has a glow about it. In our teens we have the desire to do and to make and to see things. This is the fountain of youth, the perpetual energy and urgency of those who think young. Maturity is supposed to bring a more sober, a more realistic view of things. We settle down to the work-a-day world of routine. But you have the immense privilege of growing up in a world where this last idea no longer holds good. Everywhere people are hungry for good news. Economically underprivileged nations are experiencing the revolution of rising e.xpectations. The spiritually underprivileged (your neighbors and mine), disenchanted with sci- ence as the cure-all, are starved for the real good news. Pius XII said we live in the springtime of human history. My congratulations on being alive and adolescent in what looks like the greatest of all ages! Welcome New High! ' The proper and immediate end of Christian Education is to co-operate with divine grace in forming the true and perfect Chris- tian — that is to form Christ Himself in those regenerated by Baptism. (Pope Pius XI in his encyclical — Christian Education of Youth.) After 25 years of pioneering in Christian eeducation, CC welcomes a third Catholic high school to Fort Wayne. Headed by Principal Reverend Edward Krason, Bishop Dv. ' enger High School officially begins its administration this fall. The Catholic school system of America is rated very highly in both the number and quality of its schools. The Fort Wayne-South Bend diocese boasts of 58 grade schools and 11 high schools all staffed by dedicated men and women who take great satisfaction in giving knowledge to their students. Father Krason emphasized The main goal of the school will be the development of the intellect through Christian ideals. We as students of an established school must share our ex- perience and welcome our new companion — Bishop Dwenger.

This will not be of interest to you. We address our message to those people interested in something other than themselves — people interested in persons, places, and events affecting everyone at CC. Our subscribers are intelligent people who have a lively inter- est in knowing what ' s going on. You upperclassmen know to what we ' re referring.

Get your own SHAMROCK be- cause nobody likes somebody reading over his shoulder. Your SHAMROCK representatives will take sub- scriptions in your home room. You won ' t regret it. Council Commentory What will the Ecumenical Council mean to you, the layman of the future? It is certain that your role in the Church will be one of greater responsibility, such a role as has never before been granted to laymen. Already the Council has drawn the religions of the world into a closer contact with Catholi- cism, such that Anglicans are already debating reunion with the Church. Now, however, a new session of the Council is about to open under Pope Paul VI. This ses- sion of the Council will be com- prised of prelates who are pre- pared by experience to deal with the questions put to them. A grave matter which will certainly be brought up is that of religious freedom. Aug. 6, 1963, 149 United States ' bishops met at the Conrad Hilton in Chicago to discuss conciliar ac- tion on religious freedom. This news will please many bishops in other lands, who do not enjoy a separation of Church and State. In the view of some, experience of the Church in the United States is destined to make a special contribution to Vatican II. What will come of this reso- lution, no one can foresee; but by the prayers of all, perhaps re- ligious freedom can become a right belonging to all men. 14
