September l2, 1958 CARDINAL AND WHITE Page Three LLOYD KLINEDINST MICHAEL TUEFH Two Gratis Enter Religious Life Two seniors of the class of 1958 have answered the call of Godh- one in devotion to Our Lady, the other to Christ. These two boys are Lloyd Klinedinst and Michael Tueth. Lloyd entered the novitiate of the Society of Mary this summer at Galesville, Wisconsin. He will study for one year before taking his first vows. Then he will begin his college courses which will prepare him for his teaching life. Michael Tueth entered the novi- tia.te of the Society of Jesus, St. Stanislaus in Florissant, Missouri. Here he will study for two years before taking his first vows to become a Jesuit. After completion of this he will begin his college curriculum. Both Lloyd and Mike were well known around Chaminade, and were very active in their senior year. Lloyd was president of the Student Council, editor of the CARDINAL, and Valedictorian of his class. Mike was president of the sen- ior sodality, editor of the CAR- DINAL and WHITE and Saluta- torian of the Senior Class of 1958. Lloyd and Mike are joining a large number of the Chaminade graduates now in the ranks of the priesthood and the religious life. Their example should be an in- spiration, and their prayers will be a help to the Chaminade Sill- dents of today. Brothers' Conventions Here The Science and Mathematics convention was split into two di- visions. The math teachers con- vened and discussed new pro- cedures in teaching and new type courses. Science teachers explained the changes to be made in teach- ing technique at Chaminade. Our own Bros. Meyer and Yasho were among the speakers at this con- vention. During the latter part of August two conventions were held at Chaminade by the Brothers of Mary of the St. Louis Province. The attendance at each convention was about 40 brothers. The first to meet was a Sodality convention which lasted three days. This convention dealt with a re- view of last year's meetings and with plans for future meetings of the Sodalities in the Marianist schools. CLUB ACTIVITIES The first meeting of the Mothers' Club was held Tuesday, Septem- ber 9. This meeting outlined plans for the mothers' holiday house tour, and new members became acquainted with the policies and the activities of the club. New officers were introduced at this meeting. They included Mes- dames Nolan, Dalton, Kerber, Mur- phy, McGowan, Vescovo and Krek- eler. Included in the agenda was the introduction of the facility members at Chaminade. The Fathers' Club is planning its annual carnival for October 18. The Fathers plan to surpass the successful carnivals of past years and will certainly succeed with much cooperation and the usual output of hard work. This yeal s carnival has been planned to coin- cide with Homecoming Day. It is hoped that this will heighten the success of both events. A recent audit of the Alumni books showed a total profit of two thousand dollars on last year's annual Horse Show. A large amount of this profit was account- ed for by the ads placed in the Horse Show program. Various activities for the Alumni are being planned this year. These will include a day of recollection toward the end of the year, and a. dance which will be held late in the football season. When spring rolls around, another Horse Show is planned, the proceeds of which will be used toward the erection of an entrance to the school in 1960 for the Chaminade Jubilee. Superior General To Visit Chaminade The V. Rev. Paul Hoffer, S.M., Superior General of the Society of Mary, will visit Chaminade from October 6 to October 10. Father Hoffer is on a. world tour from the governing headquarters in Rome, Italy. He will celebrate the Golden Jubilee Mass of the St. Louis Province in Our Lady of the Pillar Church on October 11.

Page Two CARDINAL AND WHITE September l2, 1958 Zcfaiafwl by Michael Adrian On the opening day of school, Brother Robert Ernst mentioned what School Spirit is. School Spirit is hard work at your studies during the whole year. Many people think that School Spirit is just yelling at sporting events and sticking up for Chaminade in arguments. We must remember that we were sent to Chaminade to get an edu- cation: this is our main purpose. It is our duty in our present state in life to go to school and to be a good student-not only in conduct but also in studies. We must remember in conscience that we are bound to increase our knowledge. One might ask, however, Does this mean that I must keep my grades at an average of 99170 or above? By no means. But it does mean that each and every student should work to his own capacity. God gave us each a certain amount of talent and it is up to each one of us to use these God-given talents toward our own supernatural happiness. All the men at Chaminade should be very proud of the fact they have such a to acquire a tion. All of for this the When one gives serious thought to what he wants to be in later life, he will be thankful for the various helps that were given him in his high school education. splendid opportunity good Catholic educa- us will be thankful rest of our lives. All of these various thoughts add up to a rich SCHOOL SPIRIT -the true SPIRIT OF CHAMIN- ADE! When we organize our high school curricular and extra-curric- ular activities into a smooth blend of these various ideas we can say proudly that we attend Chaminade, -and that when we are backing our teams in various sports and cheering the Flyers on to victory, we can look back on our good grades and feel an inner glow of accomplishment . . . We can and will live up to the motto of our school . . . ESTO VIR! uest Editor Danny Schultes, Freshman Guest Editor Wednesday morning, September 3, one frightened freshman, yours truly, entered the halls of Cham- inade College Academyg my first day at high school, prepared to start in a brand new field of learning. When I entered the building, I saw a large -blonde-haired Brother looking very sterng at this point I felt like turning around and leaving by the same entrance I entered. Later I found him to be a very good teacher and a fine help in my first day in high school. We were notified that we were to go to the gymnasium and so my first day at Chaminade start- ed. After assembling in the gym- we opened the assembly prayer led by one of the nasium, with a seniors, whom I found out later to president of the Student be the Council, Robert Hellrung. We were then introduced to Brother Robert Ernst and Father Louis Blume, both of whom gave welcoming ad- dresses. Brother Ernst gave a talk about school spirit and striving to reach our goal in high school for God. Father Blume then gave us a wonderful speech. Father is the president of Chaminade and is the one who keeps everything running smoothly. Brother Ernst then returned to the microphone and assigned us to our various homerooms. When we got to the classroom, we were given our schedule for the year- and then off to classes. I am thankful most of all for the assembly that we had. This helped me to absorb some of the spirit of Chaminade. One could not pick a finer school than Cham- inade to help not only in studies but also to develop a. strong char- acter and a pleasant personality. Missouri Boys' State by Iohn R. Sanders This year, from June 21 to June 28, I had the honor to attend the Missouri Boys' State. This year it was held on the campus of Central Missouri State College in Warrensburg. Boys' State is a program set up by the American Legion for the purpose of instructing the youth of the country in the operations of our government. On this par- ticular occasion it was the mythi- cal fiftieth state in which every- thing is run by young men in their senior year in high school. A whole new government was set up on the basis of the Constitu- tion of Missouri. Q Upon arrival at Boys' State I was completely mystified. Imagine, if you will, six hundred boys lined up in single file to be signed in. This took place inside a small building, with rain pouring down outsideg this was my first view of Boys' State. Upon being assigned to the city of Crowder, I departed for my room. Upon entering I found that I had been assigned to the same room with eleven other guys. The next two days were spent in at- tending lectures on the various phases of the government, That which makes the biggest impression on one's mind is the number of boys that one can meet in such a short period of time. Boys' State was a truly wonderful experience. I'm very grateful to Chaminade and the American Le- gion for sponsoring me. It is well for the juniors of the future to remember that they have the chance for such a swell opportu- nity. I hope the classes to come will continue to represent Cham- inade and take advantage of the great chance to learn more about our government.
