The Child we seek holds the seas and the winds on His palm. The Eastern star beckons, Lynn Fitzgihlaons, Elaine Gerhard- stein, Maureen Lehman, and Ianice Cailotto bring incense, gold, and myrrh to His side. The prophecy is fulfilled. Look, Mother, I can dance, I can jump. Offering her crutch to the King, Donna Coffield receives a reward. oy Triumphs at Dominican Christmas spirit blankets Dominican like a feathery snowclrift. Holly hearts reflect the festive season. St. Nick sparkles lunch hour conversations. The stage is set as Do- minicanites spread an epidemic of Christmas fever. The stage is set - for Amahl and the Night Visitors. Do you hear what I hear? Hours of patient practice produce an inspiring performance. Dominicanites troop to stardom as shepherds offer their dancing and gifts, kings offer their gold and myrrh, and Amahl offers himself. The pale stars fortell that dawn is in sight. King Kasper clasps his licorice-filled box, awed peasants gaze at regal richesg a desperate mother steals for her childg a miracle rewards a lame boy's offering as the Bethlehem star promises peace and good will. O Night, O Night Divine, chorals an angelic junior- senior choir as the thunderous applause of proud parents and delighted friends reverherates through the aud. An ecstatic, relieved cast re-enacts favorite scenes and exchanges thanks and congratulations. Let us bring Him silver and gold . . . Like the be- crutched Amahl, Dominicanites offer their miraculous pre- sentation to spread the true Christmas spirit. For my child . . . for my child. Obsessed with maternal concern and tempted by glittering gold, Marty Murray sacrifices righteousness for need, and struggles with Janice Cailotto. 1 I

Guest speakers during Catholic Youth Week stimulate such animated discussion that Sister Basil continues a point privately backstage with Mrs. Iames Brophy and Mrs. I. Goodwin. .xggg Saying Stations of the Cross in the ,serene atmosphere of a quiet chapel, ludy Mansor finds these minutes spent in meditation spiritually refreshing. Vocational Insigha Quiet Rqflection, Catholic Action Heh? With a swift glance at his young feminine audience, husky six foot Reverend William King prudently wonders, How will I present this vocational talk - I 've never been a nun? 12 As winter flowers into spring beauty, teens blossom into spiritual maturity. As God guides nature's creative hand, He directs man's daily actions. Faith is the fertilizer that enriches knowledge. Hope is the hoe that smooths the ruts and pebbles on the way. Love is the light that warms mankind. Knowledge nourishes faith. As the voice of God in the annual retreat replaces resonating radios, telephone talk-a-thons, and bellowing boyfriends, the weeds of doubt choking self-understanding are extracted. As the gardener's hoe prepares the soil for fall planting, hope readies the soul for future planning. God calls. Dominicanites reply. They listen intently to vocation speakers, who stress the role of Catholic youth in the lay apostolate. A unique excursion to Adrian gives the upperclassmen an inside peek at religious life. Love radiates from Christ. As flowers, fish, and fowl joyously hannonize in response to the sun, so color, race, and creed fuse in the Mystical Body. If spiritual growth accompanies physical develop- ment, the adolescent reaps a harvest of inner beauty.
