V TON is Xllf Q4 i o- 3 1-1: 'Mm During the French Revolution, the hand of death was throttling France. Disguised as a men- der of pots and pans, Father Chaminade remained in France when almost all other priests were driven into exile. lle remained to give France the last rites. But the curious experience with last rites is that so often they not only fortify the soul for death but actually give it renewed life. That is just what Father Chaminade did for the soul of France. And when Father Chaminade revived an al- mostdead nation, he gave it back to its widowed Mother: Mary, the Immaculate Virgin. For he had seen--as if in a vision--that France, and all the world, would be restored in Christ only when it was returned to Mary. So, in the early nine- teenth century, he organized sodalities in Bor- deaux that were armies of Mary. Their defense was aggressive: rout indifferentism and secular- ism by enlisting all men as consecrated sons and soldiers of an Immaculate Queen. Their plat- form was filial piety, the imitation of Christ's love for His Motherg their motto: Maria Duce-- Under the Leadership of Mary. Like yeast, they leavened the masses of France, influencing professions, business, educa- tion, politics--the whole social order--by tech- niques which we now call Catholic Action. From the seed that was the sodality flowered two re- ligious Orders: The Brothers of Mary in 18173 The Daughters of Mary in 1816. Behind all this, as behind all great undertak- ings, was the spirit and faith and genius of one man: Father William Joseph Chaminade --lead- er, apostle, soldier and son of Mary. 7? Today, we are the extension of Father Chami- nade in the twentieth CSl'lIllIy. Taught by the So- ciety he founded, inspired by the m ess a ge he broadcast, infla med by the Marian love that fired him, we are his heirs. Our her i ta ge has come to us through the school that bears his name, the first in the world to be so honored. Our president and our faculty are Father Chami- nade's visible representation for us today. They are showing us the problem and the solution that he faced in the crisis of his time. And they are showing us that the problem then is so very much the problem now, as the solution then is also the solution now: we are to rout the materialism of our day by forming the world into a militia of Mary. We are to sally forth out of the mouth of the Mother of God, carrying the message that Father Chaminade bequeathed us. Our yearbook, therefore, is to serve as a re- minder. And this in two ways. It is to remind us of all that has gone into our education as men of Chaminade. Hence, the pages that follow will forever recall the memory of the men who taught us and the principles they reprcsentg the cama- raderie with our fellow seniors and underclass- meng the unforgetable hours associated with cur- ricular and extra -curricular workg the challenge, the victories, the defeats of our sports lifeg the hush and silence of our prayer life, the fun and frolicing of our social life: in short, the total impact of our education as men of Chaminade. But our yearbook is not only yesterday's record itis also today's agenda. It is to remind us, like- wise, of the pledge to which we have consecrated ourselves: to be men like Father Chaminadeg to do now for the twentieth century what he did then for the nineteenth century. Maria Duce! I .2 N69 . , .lsffi -.r1mg..X,,s. , qs S2198 91' Fifty years in Mary's service certainly demand recognition. Our small tribute to Father Golat- ka's golden years in Mary's service, then, is this annual which we are happy and proud to dedicate to a man who has held high offices in the Queen's Guard. Born Sept. 28, 1890, in Poland, Father moved with his parents two years later to La Salle, Ill. He entered the Society of Mary at Dayton when he was thirteen. After several years of teaching at St. Mary's Academy in Texas, Chaminade, and Spalding Institute of Peoria, Ill. fwhere Bishop Sheen had recently been a studentj, Father left for Fribourg, Switzerland, where he was ordained on Aug. 3, 1919. The rest of Father's long career has been dotted with notable achievements: principal of St. Mary's Academy, Texasg president of Chaminade from 1927-1931 and of St. Mary's University from 1938-19475 elected-member of the General Chapter of the Society of Mary three times: honorary LL.D. from St. Edward's of Austin, Texasg member of the president's council fcollege divisionj of the N.C.E.A.g and, more recently, chaplain to the Santa Cruz Council of the Knights of Columbus. For a more comprehensive list of Father's many works, consult WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA. Currently, he is Latin teacher at Chaminade and chaplain at Villa Duchesne. But notable as Father's accomplishments have been, it is his life that is the real basis of in- spiration for us who know him. Humility, simplicity, a strong faith, and an even stronger devotion to the Mother of God--these are the virtues that command respect and esteem from his fellow Brothers, his students, and his host of friends. Our yearbook, consequently, is a monumentof the respect andesteem we hold for one of Ma.ry's elite. 6 5 ef si' 3 ii 'mx m,,4-,,---f:1- , ' T143-i ,, M' ,,Q5'M,,f K4 gp, X, ,Wg ,K 1+ vw f W T v A QT A .

Your years at Chaminade have been successful ones because you have consistently worked as a team determined to win. Iam happy to have captained your team these past two years--momentous ones for the expansion of Chaminade--and I am grateful for your co- operation in realizing the development you see all about you. My parting words, then, find their source in the esprit de corps that has characterized your class and in the formula by which you have expressed, in this annual, your life's consecration. These parting words are really an injunction: continue the work begun by Father Chaminadeg be active apostles of Mary in the Mystical Body that is His Church. This you can do by being Catholic leaders in the colleges you at- tend, in the work you perform, in the service of your family, your country, your Church and your God. And when you complete your mission as apostles of Mary, you are exemplifying as Alumni of Chami- nade the motto that was your guiding principle as students at Chaminade--you are being MEN.

T0- da their membership comprises twenty strong, Yi their efforts are reflected in every major activity of the school by the Christian pattern they set. Under the guidance of their moderator, Bro.

Joseph Yasho. Theirs was the only group represented at the National Marianist Sodality Convention held at Clevelandg Bro. Joe and Lloyd Klinedinst drove there during the Thanks- giving holidays. Among the Juniors' noteworthy pro- jects were the introduction of the Advent wreaths in every classroom5 the sponsor- ship of the spiritual bouquet for the Holy Father at Christmasg and the experience of attending Mass oiered in the Maronite rite. Perhaps, though, their most fruitful work stemmed from the stimulating discussions on dating, drinking, conver- sation, and the theory of sodality tech- niques . . . allaimed at building leader- ship in thc group and in the school. 54 Bro.

Their initiative was responsible for Father Chaminade's name appearing on the television program, Quiz A Catholic , and most extensive has been their eonsistent effort in keeping the Book Rael: supplied with lively Catholic literature. In their weekly meetings, the sophomores have eon- eentrated on the study of the Mass . . . certainly an effective preparation for the lay apostolate and the Christian life. The future of sodality work at Chamin- ade is bright because of the fine training these young sodalists are receiving under the tutelage of their very zealous and devoted moderator, Bro.

Contributing to the cultural program at Chaminade is the Art Club which functions somewhat spontaneously. Talented members not only improve their own skill by daily practice but likewise serve the school by their many posters that highlight special events at Chaminade. On several occasions, members of this club drew up Spiritual Bouquets to be presented at School functions. Ure Cardinal staff wishes to thank, especially and publicly, Bro.

VV Music appreciation marks the cultured gentle- man. We believe that one of Chaminade's rich- est assets is its music program, comprising the school band and the liturgical singing group. The band is under the very able direction of Mr. Ken- neth C. Scheibal. The singing is equally well directed by Father Robert Hogan and Bro. Harold Lootens. The liturgical group performed at the concerts and at the weekly singing during Mass. The band is composed of Concert, Varsity, Dixieland, and German sections. A new feature was added this year with the introduction of the Guitar and Accordion Clubs. In addition to three annual concerts, the band renders valuable ser- vice at athletic events, assemblies, and general school programs. Certainly the band deserves no little credit for the scientillating school spirit that reigns at Chaminade. Much of this credit stems from the efficient management of the band officers: Bert Settlage, president: Paul Knese, vice-presidentg Forry Mur- phy, secretary: John Dailey, librarian: and Bob Hellrung, manager. With Mr. Scheibal, these of- ficers have helped the band take honors in The Fontbonne Music Festival. A most enviable dis- tinction came this year with their invitation to play at The National Music Convention held in St. Louis during May. Faculty and students alike are all very proud of these many facets of music training that spar- kle at Chaminade. If , ' P if re- . si . M- ... 2 .4 4. t ,a Rl N HWQQON calling . . . WQQON calling, and Standing by . . . This familiar phrase can be heard regularly every Sunday evening in the Radio Room. It's the call of the Chaminade Radio Club being sent over the wireless. The Radio Club, organized and spearheadedby Bro. Eugene Meyer, the moderator, is nowin its fifth year. Perhaps no other organization at school has had so fabulous a growth as the Radio Club, whose prominence and prestige in the St. Louis area is enviable indeed. Bro. Leo Scholz's help this year has given it a new impetus. Con- ducted daily on a class basis, the Club functions for the benefit of the students interested in ama- teur radio. Its purpose is specific: to train its members so thoroughly that by the time they are jtmiors and seniors they will be able to qualify for a General Class Amateur Radio License conferred by the FCC. To enumerate the many civic ser- vices such ham o e p rators can render would be to belabor the obvious.

Sheen Club, more popularly known as the Speech Team, has this year equalled--and in several instances surpassed--its traditionally superb record at Chaminade. In two of the C.I.S.L. meets, they placed five speakers in the finals, thus breaking previous records and establishing a first-place rank as the school with the highest number of finalists. Outstanding in this year's competi- tion were: Mike Tueth and Bill Ham- ilton in Original Oratoryg Bob Vescovo and Bob He llrung, Non-Original Ora- toryg Richard Schmidt and Jack Castu- lik in Serious and Humorous Interpre- tation, respectivelyg Forrest Murphy and George Volk, Estemporeg Steve Saller and Joe Ellebrecht, Radio. Both the Oratory Team and the Radio-Ex- temp Team copped first-division tro- phies. Bob Vescovo won the second- place medal in the County Finals of American Legion Oratory. Equally competent was this year's Debate Team which wrangled itself into top honors. Bob Hellrung and Bill Hamilton comprised the negative squad, while George Volk and Mike Tueth upheld the affirmative side of the farm issue. George and Mike both received ribbons for their superior de- bating. A. new feature of the Club, the Speech Clinic, ftmctioned quite suc- cessfully in this its second year at Chaminade. Richard Schmidt won the best-speaker trophyg Kemper Coffelt and Jack Sanders won gold medals as the next-best speakers. Through the Clinic, speech is available to all stu- dents. The Club thanks its moderator, Bro. Frank Klapp, for his vigilant in- terest and coaching, despite many other pressing duties. 3 Q 1 ,LM ' 'f 1 ee t gt you , n X, fe?

G. Smith, Fr. Blume, Mr. I. Schreiber. Mr. L. I. Kerber. Tomorrow the results of much preparation and anticipation will be displayed in the lst annual Campus Carnival. The combined efforts of the Fathers', Club, Mothers' Club, and Alumni have produced such points of interest as the games and sale booths, a ferris wheel, merry-go-round, and later in the afternoon a Hot Roast Beef Dinner. Aside from this frolicking affair, the long awaited student dorm, Canning Hall, will be open for all those who have been inquisitively following the bui1ding's progress. Everyone is welcome, bring the entire family! Fr. Blume Honored This past summer, Father Louis Blume, president of Chaminade Col- lege, was elected by t-he Marianist Brother in the St. Louis Province to represent them at the election proceedings of their General Chap- ter. The Chapter convened early this August in Rome for the pur- pose of electing a new Superior General. Representatives from every Province of the Society of Mary were in attendance. Accord- ing to Father Blume, the many countries presented a good cross section of world conditions. The threat of Communism has lessened to some extent in Italy, although the people are still con- fused by offers of personal gain. Austria, while working hard to Tom Donahue STUDENT DORM instill a solid Catholic culture in its people, still fears the proximity of Russia. France has been hampered in its improvement by lack of credit. Germany ha.s made considerable economic progress and is optimis- tic in her outlook. Switzerland continues to follow the democratic way of living and improving. Before returning home, Father EX-PRESIDENT RETURNS In 1921, Bro. Sylvester Juergens had little idea that in thirty-five years, he would be returning to Chaminade after having served as Superior General. Few remember the Bro. Sylvester of 19213 fewer still remember him from 1914 when he first came to Chaminade as a Scholastic. Reverend Father Iuergens However, many St. Louisans do recall that Rev. Sylvester Juer- gens was Provincial of the St. Louis Province during the hectic war years, and, before that posi- tion, guided Chaminade College through the uncertain years of the depression. And now, after this long absence, we of Chaminade happily welcome him back. Ronnie Danna Blume enjoyed the distinct privi- lege of attending an audience with the Pope. His Holiness imparted the Papal blessing to the faculty, students, parents, alumni, and friends of Chaminade. S. Saller Page Two CARDI NAL AND WH ITE October 5, l956 OUR LADY 0F THE PILLAR There e.rist, within our religion, many phenomena irith irhieh we are acquainted. Front these 671167- ges one irhieh is of particular in- terest to all men of t'haminade. I refer to the eireumstanees which led to the founding of Our Lady tif The Pillar. This beautiful shrine is loeated in Saragossa, Spain. The original shrine iras built by St. James The Apostle at the request of the Bless- ed Virgin, -who appeared to him as he was praying by the bank of the ldlbro. Nt..lames, in aeeordanec with the command to Go and teaeh ye all nations, had come to Spain for the e.rpress purpose of eonoerting the Spaniards to Catholicism. Dis- eouraged by his lack of success, James sought the aid of the Bless- ed Virgin. As he was in prayer, the Mother of God appeared to him, standing on a marble pillar sup- ported by a ehoir of angels. Mary told him. that he would succeed and that the Spanish would remain true to the Faith for all time. She then instructed St. James to build a shrine on the bank of the Elbro. After her departure the marble pillar remained as a tribute to her appearance. lt was at this particular shrine that l ather tfhaminade reeeined the inspiration to found the Socie- ty of Mary. The Noeicty in turn. established the sa-hools iehwielz bear his name. A valuable moral may be drairn from this phenomenon. Mary. medi- atri.r between God and man., eon- sequently a powerful ally in our quest for eternal salvation, will eonze to our aid when difficulties arise if we foster a devotion to her.

That's enough to frighten anyone away- but, Father Willis doesn't want to frighten you away, so he calls it the Server's Club. Revised last year from years of sleep, and affiliated with the Knights of the Altar, the Club had splendid success in in- structing some forty-six students how to serve the Mass and Bene- diction. Of those forty-six, sixteen received special awards for their devotedness: and live seniors mer- ited the Honor Guard Pin, a trib- ute to their particular generosity and care in serving the Holy Sacri- fice of the Mass. Want to join? Drop in and see Father Willis.

Bond Makes Debut The Chaminade Band is now in full tune, looking forward to an- other distinguished year under the leadership of conductor Kenneth Scheibal. In early September, the band elected Gilbert Settlege as president and assistant conductor: Paul Knese as vice-presi-dentg For- rest Murphy as secretary: Bob Hellrung as business manager, and John Dailey as librarian. Their first appearance - the football rally - was carried out with a more than usual degree of success. Other appearances of our band this year included the Mid- America Jubilee, and will include the Annual Winter Concert on De- cember 2, the Spring Concert on March 3, and the Mothers' Concert on May 5. In these and other ap- pearances, we wish them the best of success.

Finan- cially, the Horse Show netted some 51500. But the experience gained, the camaraderie enjoyed, the sug- gestions for future improvements- all this paid dividends that can- not be measured. Mr. Ray Masek and his stalwart committee deserve a royal toast from all at Chami- nade. Plans for this year envision a more successful alumni. A commit- tee of class representatives will be set up, who will act as captains in enlisting the co-operation of their respective classes. A day of recollection will be held on the tirst Saturday in Lent and the 2nd Annual Horse Show will climax the year's program. The alumni will man the dart- throwing booth at the Fathers' Carnival.

Frank Klapp was nominated to the Ex- ecutive Committee of the National Council of English Teachers of Greater St. Louis. This is an ex- clusive organization devoted to the direction and management of bet- ter English teaching throughout the Metropolitan St. Louis area. Chaminade is proud of this singu- lar honor which has come to the school through Bro. Frank. During the third week in Aug- ust, Bro. Frank also had the pleas- ure of attending the Shakespeare Festival at Antioch University in Yellow Springs, Ohio. The plays were presented on an outdoor stage. a replica of Shakespeare's own Globe Theater. George Volk Fellowship Awarded Striving to extend his consider- able scientific knowledge, Chami- nade's Bro. Eugene Meyer this summer attended the sixth annual Carnegie Institute of Technology Summer Science Teachers' Pro- gram. Bro. Meyer was one of eighteen of the nation's best secondary school science teachers selected to attend this program of study, which has as its aim to stress the im- portance of fundamental concepts of chemistry and physics and to show the power of these fundamen- tals. The six weeks' program was made possible by fellowships given by the Westinghouse Educational Foundation. Barry McCormick Assembly Successful It is customary at Chaminade to present an assembly each year for the express purpose of explaining the extracurricular activities to the underclasmen, for it is these men who will strive to improve the activities and to enhance the ex- cellent reputations possessed by each. On Friday, Sept. 22, this custom again became a reality. The assem- bly commenced with a prayer, com- pliments of Father Langlinais, and was followed by a short speech by Dave Dempsey, student council president, who moderated the as- sembly. The four student council officers took their oath of offce and the representatives from the re- spective homerooms were intro- duced and each given a card ac- knowledging the honor bestowed upon them. The speeches on the extracurri- cular activities followed and it is unanimously agreed that they were among the best, if not the best. ever delivered on the subject of extracurriculars at Chaininade. Credit for the excellent assem- bly goes to Bro. Joe Barrett, mod- erator or the Student Council, and the members of that fine organiza- tion, who arranged the entire as- sembly, and then proceeded to car- ry it out without a difficulty.

Sodality Notes Another .school year is beginning, and with it comes the usual flurry of egrcitement as the e.rtracurricu- lar activities reorganize. The so- tlality. as the most important activ- ity in the school, is no erception. The sodality, by definition, is a group of the faithful striring to attain the life of grace more fully in school, home. and community. Membership is open to all,' how- eirer, only those who can line up to its rigid standards are allowed to become a full-fledged member. At Chaminade there are four different stages in becoming a so- dalist. The freshmen, under the guidance of Bro. Harold Lootens, are called postulants, as they are asking to he received into the so- dality. The sophomores. with Bro. James McCaffrey as moderator, are referred to as aspirants, as they have fulfilled the minimum require- ments of the organization. Under the leadership of Bro. Joe Yasho the juniors, probationers, are eager- ly awaiting their final step as sen- ior sodalists. The seniors, already full-fledged sodalists. will again be under the direction of Bro. Frank Klapp. To date, each sodality division has had its initial meeting and dis- cussed the year's projects. It is Oltl' sincere wish that the Sodalists have a successful year under the banner, Maria Duce! Michael Tueth 700 IKE If it were up to the Chaminade students to elect the President of the United States in November, Dwight D. Eisenhower would be a walk-in. Apparently the quick-wit- ted, smooth speaking Adlai has not touched the hearts of the Chami- nade students, for he was able to muster only 120 votes from the possible 393. Besides marking their x behind Eisenhower's name, many took the time to write the 'LI Like Ike party cry on the bal- lot. No matter how it goes in No- vember, the Chaminade students have made their choice: Eisen- hower.

Satterwaite squirmed in his chair, but in confident tones ad- mitted, Sir, I'm the best halfback Chaminade ever had. Their coach, Mr. Henry Buffa, who was in the courtroom was surprised, because the lad had always been modest and unassuming.

PEP RALLY On Friday, September 14, the day before the Chaminade-Country Day game, our school expressed one of their best known qualities: school spirit. As the band gave forth with the victory song, and the team entered the gym, our stu- dent body, freshmen to seniors, cheered enthusiastically. After such healthy cheering, co-captains Dave Dempsey and Charlie Brown ex- pressed how much cheering meant to the team on the field.

Back in the days when D.A. was still Northside High, Chami- nade slipped by with a 7-6 victory in one of the two encounters - let's see the Flyers do it again. CC vs. Cadasco On September 15, Chaminade opened its 1956 gridiron season against Country Day. Despite the 90 degree temperature and a slightly muddy field, both teams fought hard. Throughout the first half it was a yard for yard battle. In the sec- ond quarter the Flyers retaliated Codasco's early T. D. with a series of smashing drives deep in-to Co- dasco territory - spear-headed by Dardas, Hughes, and Satterthwaite. Hughes capped the drive by power- ing over from the five. The con- version failed and the score re- mained 7-6. Near the end of t-he first half another Codasco touch- down, with conversion, left the score 14-6, and the scoring for the day was done. In the second half, yards were hard fought, in the fourth quarter a Flyer drive was only a few yards from a score, when time ran out. CC vs. Valle On September 23, Chaminade's early iired touchdown eventually bowed to the brilliant runs of the Valle backmen in a 25-14 defeat. The opening minutes of the lst quarter were sparked by Chami- nade's recovery of a fumble and then a lengthy drive, climaxed by Steve Satterthwaite's line plunge. Neverthle-ss, Valle's scatbacks left a half score of 12-7. Again, in the second half, CC capitalized on Valle's fumble and with the pass-receive combination of Brown-Boyer scored the second touchdown. With Willey Garza's second conversion, the score stood at 14 to 12, favor of Chaminade. However, in the 4th quarter, Val1e's backfield explode-d any Cha- minade hopes of victory wit-h a quick touchdown in the last min- utes, and the game ended, Valle 25, 'Chaminade 14.

Chaminade became a literal powerhouse of prayer as the stu- dent body was seen throughout the days contemplating their spir- itual welfare and observing an admirable silence. The reading program established in many of the holnerooins was, most cer- tainly, a tremendous source of inspiration. Father Kramer, this year's re- treatmaster, is a well-known fig- ure around Chaminade. From du- ties as a junior religion and sophomore Latin teacher here, Father went on to assume respon- sibilities as assistant pastor of Our Lady of the Pillar Parish. lt was in this year of transition, 1952, that Father Kramer preached his first Chaminade retreat. Chaminade students wish to ex- press their gratitude to Father for an informative, inspirational retreat and to welcome him back as their retreat master. C. C. Honor Guard Chaminade students joined with Christian Brothers' College stu- dents o11 the eve of Catholic Youth Week, Oct. 28-Nov. 4, to aid Archbishop Ritter in the form of Catholic Honor Guards. Schools from the entire St. Louis area were in attendance. Both Bishop Helmsing and Archbishop Ritter spoke on youth and the effect they will wrought on the future of the world. BANQUET A SUCCESS Among the social highlights of the Chaminade year, the annual Father's and Sons' Banquet is one of the most cherished. This year the banquet was the largest ever recorded with 525 in attendance. The fathers and sons enjoyed a delectable Steak Francisco supplemented by other choice courses and eaten to the delightful strains of dinner music. Following the dinner, Dr. Russel G. Smith heartily welcomed all present at this 19th annual banquet. The toastmaster, John P. Ossenfort, was very wittingly disposed to act as such and einceed a very success- ful program. Father Blume was then introduced and expressed his appreciation for the fine Chaminade spirit displayed in the large at- tendance. Honorable .lohn K. Regan, the guest speaker, delivered a most eloquent and interesting address concerning the individual's responsibi- lity, as a citizen of our country and more specifically of our state and city, to serve devotedly on jury duty if ever requested to do so. Then came the entertainment, consisting of three novelty acts. The first act featured the art of prestidigitation. Next, a talented ventrilo- quist portrayed two not untypical characters, Clem and Soldier Boy. Finally a magical fountain act was enacted till the younger boys were saturated with fountain drinks, topped with the Atomic Soda. The evening was climaxed with the distribution of two dozen base- balls as attendance prizes. Father J. Willis Langlinais concluded the banquet and festivities with the Thanksgiving after meals.

His goodness to us is apparent in the endless supplies of our fertile earth, in the animals. the fish, the fruits. and the vegetables. Give us this day our daily bread we pray to Him, and the countless waving wheatfields of our farmlands are His answer. Many Thanksgiving days have passed into memory.

The first meet- ing of the club was held on Oct. 9, 1956. The freshmen, sophomores and junior members of last year attended and held election of offi- cers. The new oflicers are: Alan Hamilton, presidentg Richard Ca- hill, vice-presidentg George Volk, secretaryg and William Saffa, treas- urer. All the new otlicers are sen- iors and students of fourth year Latin. The club operates under the general charter granted by the JCL. Requirements for membership are: the studying of Latin Cany yearj, maintaining an average of 80fZ, in Latin, and an interest in the culture of the old Greeks and Romans. Freshmen who are taking Latin became eligible for member- ship after the first term grades had been issued. During the year, the members of the club have a chance to partici- pate in many interesting events. Two of these are the Missouri State Convention of all J-CL affili- ates, and the National Convention. New Monstrance Concert Coming Our Chaminade concert band, last featured at the Mid-America Jubilee on September 26, will pre- sent their regular winter concert on Dec. 2, at 8:15 p. m., at Chami- nade Gymnasium, according to Mr. Kenneth Schiebal, director. The band is shaping up well and promises to become one of Chami- nade's outstanding musical aggre- gations. The members are working toward the possibility of an ap- pearance at the National Catholic Music Educators' Association Con- vention whioh will be held here next May, Mr. Schiebal said. SODALITY CONVENTION His Excellency, Bishop Floyd L. Begin, Auxiliary Bishop of Cleve- land: the Reverend John C. Dick- son, S.M.g and the Reverend Jos- eph A. Sommer, S.J., will be the honored guests and principal speak- ers for the National Marianist So- dality Convention to be held in Cleveland, Ohio, at St. Joseph's High School, November 28, 24, 25, 1956.

November 21, 1956 CARDINAL AND WHITE Page Three FACULTY RESIDENCE NEARS COMPLETION Present construction schedules call for the com- pletion of Cha1ninade's new Faculty Building early in December. Designed to meet the specific needs of faculty members, the new addition will house 45 priests and brothers and will include a library and conference room. The building is of contemporary design and is constructed of dull-toned red brick. It is arranged as a quadrangle with the central portion a closed in patio. This area is expected to afford a lounging spot for the Brothers in their leisure time, when the weather permits. Many compliments have been paid to the archi- tect's design of the structure, which features a two-story main building with one-story wings. Tall, narrow windows add a graceful note to the build- ing. Students and particularly the faculty are anti- cipating the completion of this handsome addition to Chaminade's campus. CATHOLIC AUTHOR GUEST HERE On November seventh the moon-time campus was the scene of an abnormal amount of activity. The gym and campus were graced with the presence of many Chaminade mothers. Seniors were observed in Sunday Iinery, awaiting the designated hour. All this was in prepara- tion for a talk by Lucille Hasley, who graciously consented to appear as speaker for the Mother's Club. Mrs. Hasley, as you may know, is the author of the two fine Catholic author books: Reproachfully Yours: and The Mouse Hunters. As the Crown Edition of Catholic Authors states, Students find Lucille Hasley gay, lively, humorousg also feisty, puzzling, pernickety. True as this is, the Chaminade seniors found her more gay, lively and -humorous than feisty, puzzling, persnickety. But under the humor is the solid base of Catholic ideas. Her writing has been referred to as a wedge of Catholicism, her gay humorous tech- nique carrying her ideas deep into the readers' minds. As the atmos- phere of the gathering lightened, and the laughter flowed more freely, Mrs. Hasley hit harder and harder with her ideas. She stressed the need for realization in the world that the greatest grace comes from offering up the everyday things to Godg from accepting God's will rather than deliberately picking a way of sanctity and presenting it to God. Explaining that Catholicism ineed not be dry and dusty, she con- tinued to entertain all present for a seemingly very short forty-five minutes. After the seniors-enjoying their role as interlopers to the Mothers' Club function-left, the ladies had refreshments and Mrs. Hasley auto- graphed copies of her books. The afternoon proved interesting and enjoy- able to both the mothers and the seniors, as must all such talks by this interesting and humorous author, Lucille Hasley. Page Four CARDINAL AND WHITE November 21, 1956 THE 00MFOIlTS 0F GHAMINAIIE Study Leisure and Study Leisure INTRODUCING YOUR FACULTY Brother Callahan awp BROTHER WILLIAM CALLA- HAN, who, due to his long stay at Chaminade, has been named Mr, Chaminade, is connected to all the school activities, from basketball to English grammar. Brother Cal known for his pleasant smile and congeniality, graduated from St. Mary's Univer- sity, Texas, with a Bachelor of Arts degree. He received his Mas- terate in Literature some years later at St. Louis University. There are very few who do not know Brother Callahan, but per- haps there are some who do not know the many activities with which he is connected - Athletic Director, coach of the basketball team, Camp Director, moderator of the Fathers' Club, and vice-presi- dent of the College are but a few. Brother Callahan's entire life exemplifies a persistence to his vo- cation and we know that he de- serves credit for much of the honor bestowed on Chaminade. Father Canning Chaminade's new student resi- dence hall will bear the name of Father James Canning, 85-year-old priest and favorite of students, par- ents and faculty during his long stay at Chaminade. Born at Patterson, N. J., Father Canning attended St. Mary's Col- lege, now Dayton University and pursued his studies at Besancon, France. He taught in France and Monaco and also at Dayton after his return to the States, where he was ordained in 1902. Following his ordination, he was stationed at St. Louis College, now St. Mary's University, as Chaplain. He became president in 1914. Fa- ther Canning likes to tell of his hiring a young West Point gradu- ate as football coach. The young man served for only a year before leaving for service in the first World War and an outstanding military career which ended when Father Canni-ng's coach, Dwight David Eisenhower, was -elected President of the United States. After his service at San Antonio, Father Canning was transferred to Chaminade, which has been his home ever since. Until 1944 he was Chaplain for Villa Duchesne, our neighboring girls' school. His gentle manner and sweet disposition has endeared him to everyone at Chaminade through the years and it is fitting that the new student residence, to be known as Canning Hall, will be a tribute to his memory. Brother Klein BROTHER JOHN KLEIN joined the Chaminade faculty in August of 1953, after terminating a suc- cessful stay at St. Joseph's School in Victoria, Texas. Bro. John attended the Univer- sity of Dayton and graduated with a Bachelor or Science in Education degree. Taking hold of the sixth grade reigns, Bro. John introduced his particular method of teaching the 3 R's . He has also molded his young students into voracious read- ers of History and Biography. His classroom exhibits and illus- trations include tropical fish, a sha- dow box for Our Lady, Judas bags for the missions, and a host of various other aids to learning. This particular technique of teach- ing provides the interest so neces- sary for a well-rounded education. Bro. John Klein is a man who truly understands the approach to successful teaching. Ask fhis class -they'll tell you so. November 21, 1956 CARDINAL AND WHITE Page Five B. Gr L. Award The top science student in the senior class at Chaminade, to be chosen early in 1957, will become eligible to apply for one of a group of major Science Scholarships sponsored by the Bausch 8: Lomb Optical Co., at the University of Rochester. The school's candidate for the scholarship competitions will be the winner of the Bausch Sc Lomb Honorary Science Award, who will receive the medal at graduation. Initiated in 1932, and approved by the National Association of Second- ary-School Principals, this award is now given annually in more than 6000 schools throughout the United States to encourage the pur- suit of scientific careers and to re- ward -high scholastic achievement. Only winners of the Honorary Sci- ence Award are eligible to compete for the Bausch 62 Lomb Science Scholarships. Bausch Sz Lomb provides for not less than three Science Scholar- ships, with a flexible stipend based on need, and with a total four-year value of S9,600. In the 13 years that the program has been in effect, 53 young men and women have been enrolled at the University of Rochester under Bausch 8: Lomb Science Scholarships. In addition, because of the high caliber of the contestants, the University has awarded to 80 runiners-up other scholarships of comparable value. The Rochester Scholarship Com- mittee studies all applications, and selects 30 of the most promising candidates as finalists. These stu- dents are notified of their selection late in March, and the finalists from all parts of the country are invited to Rochester for three days, with all expenses paid, for inter- views and competitive tests to de- termine the scholarship winners. In order to enter the nationwide scholarship competition, the Sci- ence Award winner should be se- lected and notified early in Janu- ary. The Award recipient m-ay then immediately obtain scholarship ap- plication blanks from the Director of Admissions, University of Ro- chester, Rochester 20, New York. Applications must be filled out and returned on or before March 1. Junior Dance The Chaminade Gymnasium was hardly recognizable recently, due to the splendid decorations of the junior class ,for it was the scene of the annual Red and White Dance, given in honor of the football team. Miss Virginia Hogan, Miss Margot Marre, and Miss Jane Cambell were elected to serve as queen and maids of honor re- spectively. Fr. Blume presented the varsity players with their well earned letters ,commending them ou their hard work and fine display of sportsmanship through- out the season. Music for the oc- casion Was provided by Vincent James and his Orchestra. Varsity Debaters The 1957 Chaminade varsity de- bate team attended the Washington University Annual Speech Insti- tute held on the 19th and 20th of October. As an added attraction, the an- nual international debate between Washington University and Oxford University was scheduled as part of the program. In previous years, this interesting debate occurred at a time other than that of the Speech Institute. There were sever- al informative discourses by mem- bers of the Washington University faculty on economics and the his- tory of the present farm problem. The topic for ,high school debate during the 1956-1957 season deals with the question of what agricul- tural policy will 'best serve the in- terest of the people of the United States. The next day's activity was mostly that of informal discussions by groups of ten or so about the Branuan Plan and parity. Sodality Notes Soon after last month's writing, the sodalists held election of offi- cers for 1956-1957. Dave Dempsey, Dick Cahill and Bob Vescovo were chosen by the senior sodalists to fill the offices of president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer respectively. The officers for the junior divi- sion are: Bill Hamilton, presidentg Paul Knese, vice-presidentg and Mike Tueth, secretary-treasurer. The positions of president, vice- president, secretary, and treasurer of the -sophomore division are held respectively by John Sanders, John Owens, Bill Burglechner, and Kem- per Coielt. Under the leadership of these men, the sodalists are already en- gaged in numerous projects, such as promotion of the noon rosary, the first 'Saturday Mass, the cam- paign for decent literature, the sale of Bibles, and the sponsorship of the annual retreat altar contest, to mention just a few. The sodality's main objective is the sanctification of its members. Naturally, a report on this can't easily be given, but there are signs of it, neverthless. Maria Duce, once just a Latin phrase, has be- come an integral part of the sodal- ist's life. Alumni Notes Brother Frank Klapp has an- nounced plans for the first large alumni meeting which will be held in the school cafeteria on Novem- ber Sth. Along with other olficial business, Brother Frank says the members will elect seven new offl- cers at the meeting and they will hold a second meeting on Novem- ber 18th for the purpose of choos- ing a new president and assistants. The November 18th meeting will take up such business as plans for the day of Recollection and the sec- ond annual Horse Show. Brother Frank says their biggest job will be to bring the mailing list up to date and to correct any inaccura- cies. Page Six CARDI NAL AND WH ITE November 21, 1956 G.M.

VICTORIOUS IN HOMECOMING GAME Flyers versus Cougars Coyle Defeated Keyed to the highest spirit by the homecoming festivities and longing for the taste of victory, the Flyers achieved our first tri- umph, a. 12-7 victory over Coyle in a Catholic League game. Despite the rain, which made the pigskin difficult to handle, our team excelled in gridiron fight and timely plays to accomplish the win. The first half saw much action and equal yardage gains. Boyer had just received a pass and the team was on the four yard line when unfortunately the half ended. When the third quarter began, our team was more fired than ever. Receiving a punt, Charlie Brown returned the ball 50 yards to the one yard line. Bitter plunged over for our first TD. The Flyers didn't loosen their victorious grip and even tightened with the recovery of a fumble in the end-zone by Dave Cassidy, boosting the score to 12-0. Coyle made their only TD in the final quarter, when Steuber re- ceived Young's pass and Ed Wag- ner kicked the extra point. The game ended 12-7 in favor of Cha- minade, a perfect climax to Home- coming Week. Marquette Defeated Instilled with the taste of victory and possessing the momentous drive of Chaminade spirit, the Flyers romped over Marquette for a 30-13 victory. On the kickoff after Marquette's TD, Hughes returned the ball all the way for our first TD. Still desiring a first quarter lead, the Flyers obtained another six points when Bitter connected with Hughes by a 50 yd. pass and then drove over with a quarterback sneak. In the second quarter, Hughes scored another TD to tighten our lead. Marquette was trying to make their bid when, capitalizing on a fumble, Dave Cassidy ran for 30 yds. for the Flyers' 4th TD. Cli- maxing the first half, Boyer ran for a TD after receiving a pass from Bitter. The first half resulted in a 30-7 score, which seemed to spell the fate of Marquette. After many repeated attempts, Marquette finally scored another 6 points in the final minutes of the game.

These comments are a tribute to careful preparations, which includ- ed noon recess pep rallies during the week of Oct. 14-20th and culmi- nated Friday, Oct. 19th. A good sized crowd was present at the ral- ly, many of whom enjoyed dancing and refreshments in the gym after- wards. Float committees from several home rooms put forth considerable effort on car and truck decorations, and Saturday's judging gave first place to Junior B, with Senior B second. Tony Kinke, a boarder from Alton, Illinois, was awarded the trophy for the best decorated car.

Page Two CARDINAL AND WHITE December Zl, 1955 CHRISTMAS AT CHAMINADE The Senior Sodality, in co-operation with the entire school body, has instigated a new project at Chaminade. It is hoped that the Sodalists have set a precedent which will be expressed, in this par- ticular season, by future sodalists and men of Chaminade. Each facet of the Chaminade Sodality was to conceive and pro- mote an effective means whereby Christ would gain His rightful recog- nition as the source and purpose of Christmas. An outdoor Nativity scene was the Senior Sodality's answer. Charles Brown, who was in charge of the project, met with Father Blume to discuss the financial aspects of the project. It was decided that a collection be taken from the students and the resultant money used for any expenses incurred. The total cost of the display was ninety dollars. On Saturday, December 15, Brown, Dempsey, Danna, F. Brady, Cahill, Leonard, the Hughes, McCarthy, and several other seniors, under the direction of Bros. Klapp and Meyer, commenced construction of the crib scene. While the statues for the scene were purchased. it is to the credit of these Chaminade men that the stable and other appurtenances were made. Boarders Spend Christmas Al' Home As we all know, Chaminade has students from all over the United States and even foreign countries. This year there will be no stu- dents remaining at school over the Christmas holidays. Most of them will go home twhile others will visit relativesl. Home, for some boarders, is as far away as Michigan, whereas others live as close as Festus, Mo. There is a great variety of cities and towns represented by 'Chaminade board- ers such as: Potosi, Mo., Alton, Ill., St. Genevieve, Mo., Madrid, Ill., Portageville, Mo., Mashegan. Mich., Dayton, Ohio, Wiekliffe, Ky., Jonesboro, Ark., Bondurant, Iowa, and Jefferson City, Mo., In addition to these, there are many more, too numerous to men- tion. Besides representatives from many U. S. cities. Chaminade also has boys from foreign countries such as: Puerto Rico and Hong Kong, China. MARY'S CONCEPTION: PU REST Un llf'1'!?7Il.IlP7' the eighth, we once again celebrated the anniversary of the 1I7'0f'lU'lPldfl0'lt, of one of the greatest dogntas in our faith, the Feast of the Immaculate Uoncep- tion of the Blessed Virgin. This date marks the beginning of the Marian Cycle of an ecclesiastical year, that is a circular path of Mary's feasts. First among Mary's titles is that of the Immaculate Conception. By this is 'meant that Mary. who was .selected from all women to be God's own mother, was granted the singular privilege of being con- ceived free from the stain of origi- nal sin.. Of all women, of all crea- tures of God, she alone was spot- less. Because Mary was never inclined to sin, and was always free from it, she is often pictured crushing the serpent under the heel of her foot. This is a vivid representation of the position, in which God placed OF THE PURE her, wishing to have the most per- fect of creatures and most power- ful of human, beings so closely associated with the birth of His son. Her knowledge of God was so clear and her will to keep the com- mandments so strong that she nerer committed sin. Thus we men of Chaminade and sons of Mary should give great honor to her on this. the feast of one of her greatest privilege. NEED MET Again this year the senior so- dality is sponsoring the Food and Bundle Drive. However, there are several new features. A goal of at least ten cans of food per student has been agreed upon, secondly, these canned foods will be packed by the seniors and personally dis- tributed to the homes of certain needy families today, the 21st. Instead of collecting all types of clothing, the Bundle Drive is asking only for boys' and men's clothing, since the bundles of clothing are to be sent to a boys' orphanage in the Philippine Is- lands. The dire need of this or- phanage for this type of clothing came to the attention of the so- dality through the letter of a mis- sionary nun there, whose brother is a senior at Chaminade.

The Eighth Grade's Food and Clothing Drive A drive, which went fairly u11- noticed by the high school stu- dents, was the Eighth Grade's Food and Clothing Drive, a project which, in view of its tremendous results, should not go unnoticed. Brother Ralph, in co-operation with a. group called The Rural Workers for Christ the King, col- lected an estimated 600 to 800 pounds of clothes and, although details are not available, an abun- dant supply of canned goods. Con- gratulations .to Brother Ralph and the Eighth Grade for a job well done! Sodullsts Aid Food Drive Men On the March Traditionally this time of the year is marked on the Sodality calendar as one of its busiest sea- sons. Advent and Christmas ac- tivities keep all divisions well oc- cupied. Of course, this year has been no exception. The Senior Sodality sponsored a Food and Clothing Drive which was unusually successful, thanks to the splendid co-operation of the various homerooms. Another Sen- ior Sodality project, which we hope will become a tradition, was the erection of an outdoor Nativ- ity Scene. Again this would not have been possible without the money so generously contributed from the homerooms. The Junior S-odality's project was the promotion of the Advent Wreath practice in every home- room. We hope that this also will become an annual practice here at Chaminade. As their share in the City-wide -Sodality Union's campaign against indecent language, the Junior sodalists, in behalf o-f the entire Chaminade Sodality, conducted a survey among the students to determine the most pertinent facts concern- ing this problem. The Sophomore Sodality once again sponsored the Crib Project with edifying results. The Fresh- man Sodality promoted the sale of Christmas Spiritual Bouquets. Though these projects were, for the most part, new, they succeeded ARRIVAL AN TICIPATED The season preceeding the birth of Christ is with us. The word Advent means coming or arrival. The coming of Christ into the world: a season including four Sundays preceeding Christmas, commemorative of Christ's com- ing. The celebrations of Christmas throughout the world are many and varied, but to the average American child, the meaning of Christmas is the vision of n. little fat man with a red nose a white beard and jingling from top to toe with bells.

Slowly and melodious the church bells peal forth t'Silent Night, Holy Night. There is a scurry- ing of feet and intense prepara- tion for the visit to the crib.

Congratulations Chaminade, college prep school, was put to the test last October 26, when the boys in the upper half of the senior class took the qualifying test for the National Merit Scholarship Competition. This test matched their wits with the best. Last week fDec. 73 Father Blume was informed that two of pur seniors, Dexter Dalton and Barry McCormick, had qualified for the final test, which will be given January 12. They are among ,the approximately 5,000 seniors across the country who were screened out from the estimated 100,000 boys and girls who took the October test. On the basis of the January College Board Exams, some 500 seniors will be awarded grants ranging from S100 to S1000 ,per year at the college of their choice. Last year Richard Daly earned a try at the final exam and was awarded a Certificate of Merit. We wish Ilex and Barry even bet- ter fortune and we congratulate them for having done so well so far. Alumni Doings The students, and especially the boarders of Chaminade are indeed grateful to the Alumni for their donation of a new Admiral TV. This new TV set has been placed in the lounge of Canning Hall. This is but the first of many such donations that the Alumni plans to give to the stu- dents. An alumni scholarship will begin next September. All of these benelits are financed through the Annual Horse Show. Some plans are already under way for the second horseshow, to be held in May of 1957. At the first executive meeting of the cur- rent year, held on Nov. 29, 1956, Albert Schweitzer was elected president of Chaminade Alumni Association. He is assisted by Mr. John Schriber III, Mr. Clay Masek, Mr. H. Conley as vice- presidentg Mr. P. Muckerman as treasurerg Mr. J.

Being a freshman. he didn't. of course, knou' how to be neat. That figures? Well, he comes up to me and he says, and I quote, Be- ing a senior, you must naturally be neat. Now there wasn't too much I could say. so I said. Hmm. well. yeah, how 'bout that? Well, I figured he'rl go away after that, but being neat. as all seniors are, he thought that I was also en- dowed with the patience of God and the icisdom of Elvis Presley. What could I do? He kept follow- ing me with that aren't you-won- derful look in his red eyes and began to imitate me. This soon be- came embarrassing, so I took him aside and casually asked him what he wanted. Oh sir, my goal is to be as neat as you are neat, was his humble but intelligent reply. Trying hard to suppress my laugh- ter. I told him that he should, if he wanted to be neat, be himself as he sees himself. Truly words of wisdom because . . . hmmm, I dunno, maybe if I had . . . Let me disgress here for a mo- ment, as I am swiftly running out of ideas. That seems like about as good a reason as any.

K., we know it should be trulyj I d0n't. But for those faithful few who are rapt in their attention to me, I shall make an effort to continue. Boy, am I a good guy. Neat's the word. This freshman agreed with me wholeheartedly, as I had my blade to his throat to further impress upon him the importance of what I had said, he left swiftly to try my advice. Whether or not he suc- ceeds is entirely up to him and the 'way he plays it. Maybe you can help him along. Who knows. he might really turn out to be neat! I tell you what.

David Dempsey, president of the Student Council, who acted as M.C. during the affair, greeted the students and encouraged them to give generously to the Food and Clothing drive. The -basketball team was then introduced and the cheerleaders led the students in some rousing cheers. After a few words from the team captain, Steve Satterth- Waite, Father Blume blessed the team.

The teams were well matched and the game very close until, in over- time, the Alumni bowed to our Varsity 53-51. The Alumni players who form- ally starred on our Varsity were Dickens, Krekler, Remlinger, Bru- ton, S-ommers and Brown. Throughout the first half our Varsity led. Then in the 3rd and 4th quarters the score was tied which effected an overtime, thus spelling the Alumni's doom . . . 53-51 in favor of C.C. Varsity. The high point scorers for our team were Steve Satterthwaite, 163 Ed. Kohlberg, 113 Dohle and Boyer, 9. Dickens and Sommers starred for the Alumni with 22 and 21 points, respectively. B Team-SLUH On llec. ll, the Chaminade Jun- ior Varsity met St. Louis Univer- sity High and were defeated 35- 26. True, they lost, but the great spirit and drive that was shown offset the loss. Mike llardas was responsible for 8 Chaminade tallies. The man of the night, however, was Juan Perez. He scored only five points, fewer than usual, but his ball handling and aggressive work on defense was nothing short of tre- mendous. The lead jumped back and forth throughout the second and third quarters, Chaminade edging ahead, then resilient St. Louis U. bound- Preps Persistent The C.C. Preps, traditional champions in their division, again have a splendid basketball team, and have to their credit so far a four win and no defeat record. Their first game, in which they played host to Our Lady of the Pillar on November 30, was, what may be said, a real trouncing. Their smooth ball handling proved far superior to that of Pillar and the Preps racked up a 29-10 win. The next game was played with Little Flower on December 7, and again their excellent ball han- dling and brilliant defense proved to be the deciding factor as the Preps handed them a 24-4 loss. Holy Redeemer was the next to fall, as they piled up 34 points while allowing only 15 to their opponents. St. Peter's of Kirkwood was the next victim, falling an easy prey to Kreckler's drive-in shots, Korack's ball handling, and Vir- agh's corner shots. The second and third string preps continued the sharp shooting in the second half to finish the game 48-15 vic- tors. C.C. showed well in both scrim- mages against McBride's and St. Mary's C teams, losing to the former by only one point, 38-37. ing back to take the lead. In the fourth quarter, however, the regulars of C.C. began tiring and the Junior Bills, with a rested first string, pulled out in front to stay.

Bina was high point man with 10 points. Knese was second with 8. On December 7, Chaminade scrimmaged the Priory. While giving only 6 points, CC racked up 30 points over the frustrated Priory quintet. With basketball playing and coaching on the C-Team as it is, it can easily be seen that the Chaminade teams of the future have a firm foundation.

JU' JI D I Cillll B Team Consistent The B-team opened their sea- son on October 30 against West- ern Military Academy. The ex- pert ball handling of Perez, cou- pled with the fine jump shots of Coffelt, proved too great an ob- stacle for the boys from Illinois, as Chaminade ran away with the game, 43-21. Four days later, again on their home court, C.C. met Mercy High. What first appeared to be an easy victory ended up as a very close game, Chaminade managing to squeeze under the wire with a 30-28 victory. On Dec. 7, Chaminade played host to Laboure. With a packed house looking on, the B-team played the best game of their yet young season, as they ran over Laboure 48-8. With a solid B-team such as this, under the coaching of Bro. William Callahan, Chaminade can look forward to many outstand- ing varsity teams in the future, B Team vs. Western Military C.C.-Western Military November 30th marked the be- ginning of the Flyers' '56-'57 bas- ketball season. The 62-35 score gave us quite a good outlook for the C.C. five. Their superior skill and agil- ity in ball handling due to the fine coaching, outmanuevered the per- plexed Western Military. Kevin Kearns spearheaded the team, being high point man with 17 points, followed by -Steve Sat- terthwaite with 15. The half score was 27-19 in our favor and although Magee scored 20 and Rulman, ll points, Western Military was unable to make up the first half loss. They bowed to C.C. 62-35. C.C.-Mercy Our second game was against Mercy, a team with a unique tech- nique. Their star, O'Brien, and their uncanny style, the press, enabled them to edge the Flyers out, 57-62. Our team withstood the pres- sure well during the first quar- ter, but the second quarter was our stumbling block. Despite the spirited drive and play of Sat- terthwaite, Kearns, and Kohlberg, the Mercy quintette managed to pile up a 21-42 score. Whether it was the indomitable spirit of the Flyers or that same spirit in the cheering of the stu- dent body, we rallied in the sec- ond half. At one time we were within 3 points of the Mercy's close lead, but their style proved to be the winner . . . 57-62. -- - I- - C.C.-Laboure Once more the Flyers stepped on our home court, 'December 7, this time to face an able Laboure team. Again we tasted the feeling of victory through our able team of sharpshooters, 51-47. By the calm but pungent drives of Gene Hughes and the out- court jump-shots of Steve Satterth- waite, by the pivot shots of Tony Dohle and those of Boyer, we overwhelmed the Laboure five. Our spirited student body cheered the team on as they were given a victory. High point men were Boyer, 14: Dohle, 13. Others scorers were Satterthwaite, 6: Kearns, 73 Hughes, 63 and Kohlberg, 3. CoCo'soLoUoHo On Dec. 11, our Varsity went out on the home court of St. Louis University High to beat the team which was determined to beat us by a large margin, since it was by a very slight margin that they beat us last year. De- spite our fighting spirit and de- termination, we were defeated 49-66. Gene Hughes and Steve Satter- thwaite led our attack on the Junior Bills, while Dohle and Kohlberg fought for the rebounds. Our team was heavily guarded and due to their center fthe tall- est in the statel, Bevo Nord- mann, the backboards were con- trolled by S.L.U.H. In view of this, we still came to a 24-28 score at the half. High point men for our team were Hughes and Satterthwaite, each with 12 points.

Y CHAMINADE COLLEGE g ' CLAYTON, MISSOURI JL Q glut CHAMINADE COLLEGE THURSDAY, FEBRUARY Zl, 1957 Number 4 I.. to r.: Archbishop Ritter, Father Fanning, and Father Blume. EO Rev. McCarty speaks at Dedication. HAMINMIE PRDGRESSING IN GIANT STEPS Nothing But Progress In Sight A forty-seven year old dream took another step toward reality on January 27, 1957. To be more specific, the faculty residence and the boarders' dormitory, named Canning Hall, were dedicated. Ever since Chaminade's beginning in 1910, the faculty and their friends have been visualizing the day when the campus of Chaminade is truly complete. We have yet to see that day, but we are slowly progressing toward that aim. The Dedication Day consisted of an open house from two to six o'clock, interrupted briefly by a consecration program which began at 3:30. After the Chaminade band played the Star-Spangled Banner, Father Robert Hogan introduced the dig- nitaries present. The main speaker for the occa- sion was Rev. J. Glennon McCarty, the provincial superior of the St. Louis Province. He was fol- lowed by the presentation of a spiritual bouquet to Rev. James Canning, in whose honor the board- ers' dormitory was named, by David Dempsey, president of the Student Council. Bishop Ritter then blessed the buildings and the program was closed by the band's rendition of Esto Vir. A real debt of gratitude is due to all who made this possible. All of the former presidents of our school, many of whom were present at the ceremony, should rightfully head this list. Then come the Executive Board of the President's Coun- cil, with Mr. Carl Kahlrneyer as chairman: the Mothers' and Fathers' Clubs, the Alumni Associa- Dedication Committee, the architects, tion, the engineers, and contractors, and many others too numerous to name. Yet this is not a termination, but merely a stepping-stone. Many other facets of the expansion program have yet to become a reality, the chapel. the extension of the gym, and the renovating of the main building, to mention a few. We have full confidence that, under the guidance of Father Blume and his many associates, this dream will be accomplished and realized to its fullest in the very near future. The Serra Club of St. Louis has Page Two CARDINAL AND WHITE February Zl, l957 SENIORS TO BECOME ALUMNI The 1957 graduates of Chaminade will be inducted into the reorganized Alumni Association, Thursday, Feb.. 28. Albert Schweitzer. president of the alumni, announced that the meeting in the gym at 8:00 p. m. will be the official kickoff for the second annual horse show, scheduled for the last Sunday in May. Major projects contributing to the Association's growth are: Com- pletion of its roster on addressograph plates: the initiation of the scholarships to be named the Sylvester Jurgens Alumni Scholarship: the editing of a periodical, The Newsletter. The day of recollection, now becoming an Alumni tradition, is set for the first Saturday in Lent, March 9. The Rev. Norbert Moellering, former first division prefect at Chaminade, will preach. A large attendance is anticipated. Serra Contestant Successful and Phil Myer took fourth. sponsored its annual essay con- test. The purpose of the Club is to promote religious life. The title of this year's essay, as was lust year's, is The Attraction Of a Religious Vocation. Over the years Chaminade has maintained an enviable record of wins in this contest. Last year Barney Wander captured first place and Bill Henry This year's participants, Virgel Hosey, Steve Saller, and Forrest Murphy .managed to produce a winner in -the person of Forrest Murphy. Forrest continued the fine record by taking fourth place honors. His prize was a 55.00 check. Congratulations to Forrest for his fine work., as well as the other two contestants. Speech Team Faring VVel1 It appears that the 1956-1957 speech team will have one of the best seasons in several years. At the first C.I.S.L. tournament. Chaminade placed live finalists. In original oratory, Michael Tueth and Bill Hamilton took first and fifth honors, respectively. Robert Vescovo captured third place in non-original oratory, while Forest Murphy and George Volk made the finals in radio-extemporaneous division. In the second C.I.S.L. tourney, Chaminade placed the largest number of finalists of any school entered. Michael Tueth, Bill Ham- ilton, Robert Vescovo, Forest Murphy, and Stephen Saller took final- ists' honors in this meet. Richard Schmidt and Robert Hellrung were runners-up in the same meet. The Chaminade debate team has a 3-3 record after the first C.I.S.L. debate tournament at De Andreis High School. The team defeated Assumption, C.B.C., and Mercy. Chaminade debaters Michael Tueth and George Volk received ribbons as commendable debaters. There are several meets scheduled for February and March. From all aspects, the speech team is having one of its most successful years, and both the original and non-original oratory division and the radio-extemporaneous division are in line for first division trophies. Potential Clceros Strive Forward. ' MAN PORTRAYED This month of February is Cath- olic Press Month. What exactly is Catholic Press Month and what should we do about it? Well, perhaps the best way to answer such a question would be to flnd out what Catholic Literature is, and what it does. Catholic or Supernatural Litera- ture is a portrayal of man in his entirety. Not just man as a sleep- ing, eating, working robot, but also as a faithful, hoping, loving son of Mary. shows man as child of God and Catholic literature he is, made up of body and soul. Literature on a natural level can- not be complete because it does not show man's soul, and the responsibility entailed in saving it. We must follow Mary's example. She was the author of the True Word, and we, in the same way, should understand the True Word, Christ, and His message, through the medium of the Catholic Press! 444143044 Parade The Mothers' Club will present A Bird's-eye View of Spring Fashions on March 15 and 16 in Chaminade gymnasium at 8 p. m.. produced by Kline's, Inc.

February Zl, 1957 CARDINAL AND WHITE Paoe Three RINGS AWAITED This year Father Blume and the faculty selected a new design for the class rings, which are given to the juniors toward the end of the year. The new rings will feature the school seal, a simple filigree and the year em- bossed 011 the flanks. The rings are being made bv' the Gagen 85 Fulham Jewelry Company. Sodallty News About this time of the year, news from the sodalities become rather scanty, for, as you know, the sodality is formed for a dual purpose: 1.1 sanctific tion of others, and 2.5 sanctification of its own members. After a good deal of the year's groundwork has been laid, it is with the latter aim that the soda'ists are pri- marily occupied. So the projects take a back seat as private ini- provements come to the fore. Take, for instance, the junior sodality, whose main work has been recently discussed at the meetings on various topics, such as bad language, leadership, drink- ing, and religious duties as soda- lists. Their only noetworthy proj- ect recently was attendance at an Eastern Rite Mass on Feb. 10. The freshmen are also conform- ing to this schedule. Their mode of operations this year is rather unique. Their group is divided up into much smaller groups known as cells, which has proved to be quite a productive arrangement. This is not to say that projects are completely forgotten. The sophomores, for example, in honor of Press Month intend to set up a display in the first floor corri- dor of a large number of Cath- olic publications, such as The Ave Maria magazine, The Marianist Magazine, and Amer- icaf' The co-operation on the part of the Catholic magazines has been edifying and the sophomores hope that the response from the students will equal that. A possi- bility of a vocational display in the gym is pending also. If this comes through, the date is tenta- tively set for March 25. FATHER HOGAN WELFOMES FIRST VISITORS AT OPEN HOUSE A E . E POSE: The City-Wide Sodality Union voted to combat the abuses of language as their main project for the year. The Chaminade Sodality cooperated in this regard by polling the high school stu- dents concerning the problem of bad language. The cooperation of the students was admirable and the seriousness of the stu- dents who were polled was com- mendable also. The results of the poll were interesting. A distinct difference was noted between the upper classmen and the lower classmen concerning the frequency of offensesg the seniors and the juniors considered themselves average offenders, while the sophomores and fresh- men thought themselves infre- quent offenders. The place and companions pro- vided another essential difference. The freshmen and sophomores used had language mostly at school and in playing sports and generally with classmates and older non-Chaminade boys. The juniors and seniors tended to be- come more general and less dis- criminating with whom they of- fended. However, the majority that did it at school and with classmates indicate a moral fiber several of do it then they con- does not necessarily bad reflection on the of the students. As the boys stated, they because that's where gregate the most and that's whom they see the most. The underlying motive for ev- eryone, whether he be freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior, was everyone else does it and no- body likes to feel different. All this leads to one logical conclusion: since we intiuence each other more than any other group of people, we have a re- sponsibility to safeguard each oth- er's morals and we potentially can do it better than anyone else. Of course, this is no easy task, but if we are really sincere about improving ourselves, the ways and means of doing this can be discovered. Thanks again to the Chaminade student body for their splendid cooperation. Page Four CARDINAL AND WHITE February 21, 1957 Senior Enjoy Student Council Project l'i1-turecl above are some activities enjoyed. vw Ihe tlhaminade Student Council recently sponsored an extremely successful Class Nite for the seniors. lleld on the ninth ot' this month, its success was immeasurable to the outsider, but definitely felt by those who participated. Many of the class geniuses were in a mental l'rustrat,ion, since there were so many things to do and enjoy: basket- ball, volleyball, ping-pong, cards, pool, TV, dancing, as well as other -'reshment consisted in ham sandwiches, sodas, cookies. activitus lttt and all the trimmings. A large number of the senior class was present at this function, a faet indicative of the spirit and eo-operation prevalent in this year's senior class. 'l'he informal party was held in the tirst and second division club rooms as well as the gym, The seniors were able to meet, much to the dismay of some and pleasure of others, the girl-friends of their fellow classmates. Perhaps a direet result of the Class Nite was the very worth- while and mueh appreciated senior lounge, where the seniors may recuperate from a strenuous morning ot' studies and gatlier strength tor the afternoon siege.

The social, to be held in the gym at Chaminade for the parents of Chaminade students and their friends, is sponsored by the Cha- minade Fathers' Club. Mr. Lloyd Klin-edinst the com- mittee chairman, hopes to provide an enjoyable time for all, with lunch and dancing -accompanied by the six-piece band of Bill Magin- nis. The dancing and lunch are included in the initial ticket price of 32.50 per persong the ticket sales, under the direction of Bro. Callahan, will cease on Wednesday, February 20. The evening, official- ly named the George Washington Dance, will be held in a night club atmosphere.

Zfafteltfell Bro. Joseph E. Konitzer, former cafeteria and study hall super- visor, has left Chaminade to re- sume his teaching activities at Assumption High School in East St. Louis, Illinois. Sent here to recuperate from a six month ill- ness, Brother Joseph took on the responsibilities of cafeteria super- intendent and study period moder- ator while awaiting further in- structions in regard to his teach- ing career. Likewise, Brother Frank Lange, who returned to Ohaminade after a year's absence, again departed to assume the post of librarian at Don Bosco High.

Lange. lhsiega .- hscln I Another milestone for half a milestonej has been reached in the cigarette industry. For years now, people in all walks of life have been trudging along with the same old weed. This year, this month, today, a earth-shaking rev- elation has startled the smoking world. New Furd, with the king- size flip-tip filter, and the marvel- ous flop-top box, has finally ar- rived in the resoundingly new stu- dent size. This new student size has been dedicated directly to the young scholars of America. Im- agine their plight for years before this announcement... Just think, they had to waste a whole cig- arette for a minute and a half's pleasure. What a waste!!! But now. the Fig-Newton Corp., Inc., makers of many other famous products for students, has ended this dilemma for all eternity. They have come out with a boon to all students... Useful without a doubt! Take, for instance, the new flip- tip filter. It in itself is the prod- uct of years of intensive research. This revolutionary development contains a hollow space large enough to carry a small poison dart which may be used on any- one who doesn't belong in the place where you are smoking. It kills instantly, and evaporates the body. Like I said, useful! Oh, yes,- in case you're an atomic spy, you carry microfilm or a small atom bomb. fHa-ha on you, De- fense Dept.j This filter comes op- tional at extra cost. The micro-nut filter comes equipped with two million filter traps. fThat ought to do it.j It's been tested by doctors all over the country. It has been proved abso- lutely unsafe for human use. And the flop-top box has been proved absolutely indestructible. You can't even get the -butts out! All this useful equipment has been checked by inaccu-ray and found to be absolutely inaccurate. But don't sit around all day reading trash like this, go out and buy some. fFor money you can buy them, although gold and rubies will be accepted if accompanied by some useful trinket such as a chocolate mothball.j They're on sale now at every tobacco counter Congratulations Bob Vescovo, elected vice-presi- dent of the Student Council last May, this year represented Cham- inade in the American Legion Contest. American Legion Speech work at Chaminade is looked upon very highly and it is a true honor for the man who takes part in this contest. In November, Bob received a first place medal in the group meet in fthe American Legion con- test. On Jan. 7, 1957. Bob went to Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School for the second Amer- ican Legion contest, the County District. Here, Bob gave a speech en- titled A Refuge From Insecurity, plus a five and one-half minute extemporaneous talk on some ar- ticle in the Constitution. He took second place, two percentage points behind the winner. He has represented the school very well both in C.I.S.L. and American Legion work. Good luck in years to come, Bob. Dance Tonight The Junior Class will be dis- playing unsurpassed artistry un- paralleled ingenuity and unrelent- ing hard work in the Cherry Blos- som Dance, to be held Thursday night, Feb. 21. Attendance at the dance is hoped to be one of the largest for any such event in the history of t-he school.

YE OLDE CHOCOLATE MOTHE BALLE Page Six CARDINAL AND WHITE February 21, 1957 0-TEAM SEASDN SPEGTACIILAR Ifnder the able coaching of llrothers Ray Davenport and Cyril lloschert, the freshman basketball team has racked up a spectacular 18-2 record. Their first loss ot' the season was suffered against a tall Kirk- wood lligh squad. The game was hard fought, but CC bowed in defeat, 47-43. The freshmen then faced Lind- burg who had already beaten Kirkwood. CC showed their true strength by romping them 46-17. Chaniinade next played host to St. Louis U. lligh, It was a close battle all the way, with Bina's foul shots proving the deciding factor. CC managed to squeeze by 28-26. Their next game was played at home. CC suffered its second loss, losing a heartbreaker, 33-325 but in their rematch, CC turned the tables and won 43-42. ln their next two games CC won by their widest margins, beating St. Francis de Sales and .lolm Burroughs, 47-5 and 57-13. The freshmen then played St. Mary's. This resulted in anoth- er CC romp, 43-28. Thus far CC has given an aver- age of 25 points a game, while making 41. A rematch against Kirkwood, a team that had already beaten CC, resulted in a Chaminade win, as they 1'acked up 47 points, giving only 175 thus beating both teams that had beaten them. Many factors are accountable for this record. The freshmen have access to many fine plays both in defense and offense, the fast break and zone press are but a few. llro. llalph lloe lt Again During the past eigl1t years of llro. Ralph Krull's brilliant coach- ing, the Preps of Chaminade have tallied up a record more outstand- ing than any of the Flyers'. Their two hundred and two victories to only twenty-seven losses is an achievement which few teams have the right to boast about. Therefore, it is the express pleas- ure of the CQW to pay tribute to Bro. ltalph's fine teams which are often the concrete foundations upon which our Flyers are built. Not only has the Prep depart- ment been renowned for its vic- tories in general, but moreover for its tremendous record of tournament victories. The Preps have placed first in their own Chaminade Tournament once in '54-'55, second in '49-'50 and third in '55-'56 and '53-'54. In the St. Louis University Tournament they have placed first twice i11 '53-'54 and in '54-'55, and third once in '49-'50. They have taken two first places in the St. Vincent's Tourna- ment in Normandy both in '54-'55 and in '55-'56, The Columbian Squires 'Pournament in Webster has afforded them the opportunity to win a first place in '49-'50. In the St. Charles Junior High Tournament they have won once in '52-'53 and placed third three times, '49-'50, '50-'51, and '53-'54. During their only two years in C.Y.0. tournaments they managed to reach the semi-finals in the city playoffs in '49-'50. Thus the unique review of the Preps under the masterful guide of Bro. Ralph has passed. Bro. Ralph, we tip our hats to you and your Preps, but also wish you more such remarkable success as you have garnered during your past years at Chaminade.

The Cougars from Kirkwood were really given a royal welcome as Chaminade poured in tifteen points in the first quarter of play. For CC, Juan Perez was high with 13 points, followed by Coffelt and Dardas, each of whom had 11 markers. The final score: Cha- minade 46, Coyle 33. Four days later the Junior Var- sity met Duchesne High on their home court. It was a battle royal all the way, but Mike Dardas, always able to score when the chips are down, racked in 10 points and snared just as many rebounds. Despite being hampered by the injured ankle of ace for- ward Kemper Coffelt, CC rolled up an impressive victory. win- ning 39-27. Cathedral of Belleville was the next scheduled game for the Jun- ior Flyers. The stronger Cathe- dral five proved too much for Chaniinade, however, as Cathedral walked away with a 56-42 deci- sion. High man for Chaminadc was Coffelt with 13 markers to his credit. February 21, 1951 CARDINAL AND WHITE Page Seven C.C. 3rd IN D.A C.C. Loses League Opener Jan. 4 - The 1957 Catholic League basketball season unfolded rather unfortunately for the Fly- ers, as they were unable to defeat a powerful Cathedral quintet. Although they managed to sustain the lead during the first half Q33- 31J, the sharpshooting players of the Belleville team seemed to have the edge, as the final score resulted in favor of them, 71-53. Although our opener was un- successful, it did not seem to hinder our ensuing season. C.C. Defeats De Sales, 64-53 Jan. 8-Disliking the taste of defeat, the Flyers returned to digest a delectable 64-53 victory over St. Francis de Sales in their second league game. Throughout the entire game the Flyers quin- tet continued to score, much to the chagrin of de Sales. C.C. Victor 0ver,Coyle Jan. 11-Once again the Flyers defeated a league competitor, Coyle, in our third league game with a score of 60-52. Continuing to surge ahead in our league, the Flyers displayed a spirit which is typical of Chaminade, persever- ance. Staying closely behind throughout the first half 127-24, favor of Coylel, the team, spear- headed by Steve Satterthwaite, drove on to a 60-52 victory, de- spite the efforts of Coyle's Holl- man, who scored 28 points. The Flyers' top men were Satter- thwaite, 223 Kearns, 15. Duehesne Bows to C.C. Jan. 15-On the home courts of Duehesne the Flyers faced this well coached St. Charles team in a hotly contested game which re- sulted in our 78-65 victory. In this game not only did we manage to defeat one of the most potent league contenders, but also we accumulated one of the high- est scores of the present season. With our pungent offensive drive and the uncanny defense keyed to block up their star play- er, Tom Smith, who was a former student of Chaminade, we held the lead during the complete game. C.C. Defeated by C.B.C. Jan. 18-With last year's vic- TOURNAMENT, tory over C.B.C. behind us, we gained the lead in the first quar- ter only to be eventually out- scored in the 60-43 defeat in favor of C.B.C. It was the bril- liant playing of their forward, Shannon, which spearheaded their team to the 17 point victory. How- ever, it was the sharp offense of Kevin Kearns and Ray Dohle, who scored 12 and 14 points, re- spectively, that kept the C.B.C. quintet on their guard. C.C. Loses First Place Chance Jan. 25-The powerful Belleville team again defeated the Flyers, thus almost assuring the first place in the league. The 68-54 victory over our team on Cathedral's court seemed to quench our bid for the league title. Although Kearns scored 20 points and Dohle 9, their edge of height and consequent control of the backboards were the deciding factor in our repeated defeat. C.C. Wins 75-47 Victory Feb. 5-The Flyers scored a 28 point victory over the frus- trated John Burroughs team in the game held in our gym for the March of Dimes drive to fight polio. The first half was a perfect dis- play of teamwork led by Rich Boyer, who scored 22 points in this game. The half score was 28-14 in favor of the Chaminade quintet. The final score was to be ex- pected when our .team piled up basket after basket. Flyers Defeat De Sales Again Feb. 13, our second victory over De Sales was similar to the first as we defeated their fighting quin- tet, 68-57.

Hard-hitting, hard-driving, hard-fighting--these are the adjectives that characterize the '56 Flyers on the gridiron. They were a hardy contingent who battled through a formidable season climaxed by the 30-13 victory over Marquette and the 12-6 victory over Coyle. Spirited by the consistent and firm coaching of Mr. Henry Buffa and Bro. William Callahan this year's football squad showed sportsmanship under hardship. Their 2 victories out of 6 games belittles the real success of their manliness evidenced in action. No little of this credit goes to co-captains, Gene Hughes and Dave Demp- sey. Charles Brown, injured during the season, was elected honorary captain. All the senior players merited mention on the Catholic League All-Star roster: Gene Hughes earned a first-string herthg Richard Boyer placed on the second-string team.

These youngsters on the gridiron were rugged and fast, shifty and clever, accurate and agile both in practice and in game ex- perience. But,most important, they were gentlemen always. The school is proud of them. And proud,too, it is of their excellent coaches , Bro. Ray Davenport and Bro. Cy- ril Boschert,whose cagy strategy was mir- rored in the players they trained.

Closely duplicating the record of the past two years on the hardwood, the '57 Flyers ended the season with a .500 average, winning 10 and losing 10, thus capturing a second-place tie in the Catholic League. In the D.A. Toumey, Chaminade went home with the third-place trophy. Richard Boyer was named to the All-Star team. Giving yeomen service were co-captains, Richard Boyer and Steve Satterthwaite, who also rated first and second string honors, respectively, on the Catholic League All-Star team. Gene Hughes and Kevin Kearns received honor- able mention. Coach Henry Buffa merits a medal of honor for the drive and spirit by which he sparked the '57 cagers into so many fiery performances.

The B team, therefore, can be justly proud of their 12 vic- tories out of 19 games and their second-place position in the Catholic League. Chieily responsible for this record were the following factors: Juan Perez's sharp dribblingg Mike Dardas' consistent reboundingg Kemper Coffelt's rigid defenseg and the determination to win by all the regulars, as well as the frequent substitutes. The B team talent will be an invaluable asset to next yea.r's varsity, giving every hope for an invulnerable oiensive for the '58 F1yeiS. Bro. William Callahan, long-time coach and athletic director at Chaminade, mentored this year's B team in his typical calm and deliberate style. It is this kind of steadfastness that builds character and wins ball games. 71 gi Q g, Q 'l4K I 33 S ROW: D. C d L. Sa n er C. I-Iartung. SECOND ROW: K. Kuhn, C- ggia IFJ, Murlnhy, Sflggsgah, M.

It is this same principle that governs athletics today. And certainly this slogan finds its direct application in the athletic events of the Prep school. Mindful that winning is not everything Qnor the only thingj, the Preps nevertheless do consistently uphold a spectacular winning streak. This year's football squad, for example, won 2 out of 3 games played. Notable was the fine work of P. Brown, R. Berkemeyer, J. Korak, and R. Viragh. In basketball, especially, the Preps specialize. This year they took the second-place trophy in the Annual Chaminade Grade School Tournament and have high hopes of retiring the traveling trophy in the St. Vincent's Tourney. J. Korak, R. Viragh, and R. Krekeler deserve much of the credit for this year's cage record of 20-2 as we o to ress. Bgro. Rglph Krull has become an athletic tradition at Chaminade and a tradition that is both laudable and en- viable in the record set. So many of the high school athletes, as the current sportsmen of the Prep school, are deeply indebted to Bro. Ralph for his starting them on an athletic career. FIRST ROW: D. Kuntz, R. Brown, L.
