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.

Alan Hamilton JUNIOR DANCE November 9 See Homeroom Representatives for tickets. Hughes. Boyer hit Codasco Jinntlmll Star Chaminade's star halfback, Steve Satterwaite, appeared in a St. Louis County court as a witness in a civil suit. Are you on the Chaminade football team this year? querried the judge. Yes, your honor. What position? Halfback, your honor. How good a halfback? 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. When proceedings were adjourned, the coach asked him why he had made such a statement. Satterwaite blushed. I hated to do it coach, he ex- plained, but after all, I was under oath. 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. Other highlights of the rally in- cluded the C Team introduction, Bro. Callahan's presentation of the baseball trophy of last May, and Coach Buffa's address. The rally was climaxed with Father Blume's blessing of the entire team.
