Nearly a hundred Dominieans have given their services to Fenwick. Four oli them have died while on the faculty and will be remembered lor their outstand- ing eflorts in the education ol Catholic youth. They were the Rev. XV. C. Daley. the Rev. A. Murtaugh, the Rev. B. li. Myers, and the Rev. C. Mcllonald. who passed away early in the present school year. The year l948 was eventlul in the history of the school. On March I5 a hre broke out in the laculty house. during which Fr. Myers, Fr. Dymek, and Fr. Lyons were injured. This nearscatas- trophe resulted in the building ol' the present St. Dominic's Priory. On May llth of that year Xlr. Bill Shay came to Fenwick as basketball coach and since then has turned out several line cham- pionship squads. Alter Fr. Kelleher the Rev. XV. ll. Van Rooy became principal: and Fr. Van Rooy was succeeded by the Rev. G. F. XValter, who has now completed his eighth year ol' administration. During the post-war years Fenwick has continued to produce great scholars and athletes. who have later assumed important roles in thcir communities. Colleges lind grads uates of Fenwick to be ol the highest caliber, are always willing to accept them, and scholarships lor many grad- Hates are by no means uncommon. Hlhether it be on the rostrum or on the gridiron, the Fenwick man is noted lor his complete moral. mental, and physical development. The character ol the school-- summed up in a quality we call Fenf wick Spirit -has inspired and, at the same time, grown lrom the attitude and actions ol' the men who have taught here and the men who have learned here. 'I'hat spirit laithliully rellects the indelatigability ol' pioneer Bishop llomk inic Fenwick. who traversed his diocese on horseback, bringing the comforts ol the Faith into the .Xmerican wilderness.
