Students Study Liturgy Aided by Father Ryan The spiritual side of any Catholic school is always the most important. At Dominican we are fortunate in having our own chaplain to instruct us in the truths of the faith and care for our spiritual needs. Father Robert Ryan has his office on the main floor hall where he is available for counseling at any time. During the day he interrupts his busy schedule to teach religion in all the classes. Besides his work at Dominican, Father also directs the work of the Palestrina Institute, a group dedicated to adding beauty and correct- ness to the liturgy of the archdiocese. This work also carries over into school life when Father Ryan helps us to make better choral responses at High Mass. This year we had the opportunity to hear some of the members of the Palestrina Institute who gave a program for the student body on March 8. We showed our appreciation of Father Ryan and the In- stitute by giving the performers a standing ovation. Judith Szczesny stops at Father Ryan's door to check the color Friday's Mass vestments. Father interrupts his Divine Office reply. Mary Anne McCarthy, Kathleen McCarty, Marilyn Zmick and drawing is good: proof is necessary.. Mary Anne opens her Carol Swartzenberg diagram the basic parts of the moral law Sound Social Living to the page on which the moral law is ex for the senior religion class. Father observes that, though the plained. Her answer shows application of facts learned.

They are standing at the auditorium en- trance to the high school. Classes and offices are located behind the aud- itoriurn. The school it- self is a three-story structure of red brick. On the right of the build- ing a path leads directly into Rosary Field. Be- hind the field and to the left of the school is the convent which is connect- ed to the school by a breezeway. Across the drive from Rosary Field is another area where hockey and ball are played. The beautiful buildings and spacious grounds made the school an ideal place in which to study and play. Dominican Mourns Death of Mother Gerald Who Built School Dominican High School opened its doors for the first time in 1940. It came about as a result of the foresight and planning of Mother Mary Gerald, Mother General of the Dominican Or- der that is located at Adrian, Michigan. Since its founding, Dominican has con- tinued to expand with an ever-increasing army of graduates claiming her as their own. This year's graduating class of two hundred seventy-five sen- iors shows are the great growth of Dominican. Mother Mary Gerald died on Novem- ber 20, 1961, at Adrian, Michigan. May she rest in peace.
