RELIGION DEP RTME T Rev. Anthony G. Jansen, S.M., B.A. Moderator 4D Vikings Chairman Religion Department R l' ' IV S 121011 Sodality Director To make religion meaningful was the Religion Departments goal. Ably guided by Father Anthony Jansen, S.M.,this, the largest and most vital Department in the school, was responsible for the development of the spiritual aspect of every Chaminade Man. Helping to facilitate the Department's program was the adoption of Our Quest for Happinessv, a unified series of textbooks. Both students and teachers found the use of these texts more advantageous than the variety of texts used in previous years. During the month of january the Department prepared special courses in the study of Father Chaminade,s life and works. With the opening of the Lourdes Centennial Anniversary, the 'Department sponsored a Lourdes Contest Quiz among the homerooms and a special assembly at which Mrs. VVinifred F eely, one cured at Lourdes and now associated with the Medical Bureau there, lectured on the marvels of Lourdes. Various projects were undertaken by the different divisions. In the Sophomore Division individual reports were part of the class, while term papers on Church History were required in the Iunior Division. In the Senior classes preparation of a notebook was an essential part of the work. Other members of the Department not pictured here Were: Bro. Christopher Franz, S.M., Bro. Joseph Kuntz, S.M., Father Adrian McCarthy, S.M., and Bro. james Abel, S.M. Father Long, SJ. of the Fordham Russian Center celebrated Mass 18 in the Russian rite for the student body.

Hence, Maurice Evanis presentation of Macbeth was shown to the Senior classes in December, Walt Disney's production of Treasure Islandi' was seen by the Freshmen classes in Ianuary, Para- mount's version of Thorton Wilder's Our Town was viewed by juniors in May, and Columbiais production of Julius Caesar was enjoyed bythe Sophomores in March. V To the audio-visual portion of the Department wereeadded a hi-H portable record player, tape recorder, and several literature selections all of which have proven very beneiicial during the course of the year. New grammar texts were also introduced into all divisions, and a vocabulary building text was added for the junior and Senior English classes.
