St WfUj HojuU Qtthztfdn This year we again welcomed a new principal as Sister Rose Adelaide came to us from Mt. Carmel in Auburn. Sister, who taught here before in 1954 and 1955, has had wide teaching experience on the elementary, secondary, and college level. A graduate of Nazareth College of Rochester, she pursued advanced studies at St. Louis University, Fordham, and Notre Dame, and has an M.S. in Chemistry. In 1958 Sister received a grant from the New York State Education Depart- ment for intensive study in science and mathematics at Cortland State University. Sister Rose Adelaide's aware- ness of the demands which will be made upon us in college and in the business world, and her keen personal interest in the happiness and success of each of us combine to make her an excellent coun- selor as well as administrator at De Sales. Sister's office is always open for consultation and her ad- vice is sound and sensible. We are sure that under her leadership for the next few years, De Sales and its students will continue to grow in grace and wisdom. SISTER ROSE ADELAIDE Principal ENGINEERING QUALIFICATIONS — are pointed out by Sister Rose Adelaide to inquiring Seniors: An- thony Passalacqua, Thomas Brennan, Joseph Nicholson and Charles Ricci. 8
