Later, when called to tight the Saxons, Arthur dressed 111 a hreastplate worthy ot' so great a king, placed a golden helmet oiz his head. and threw his shield called PRIDWEN over his shoulders, Un PRIDXYEN he had a picture of the Blessed Virgin to recall her to his meniory eonstantly, Throughout the severe conflict Our Lady assisted him until he finally vanquished all his enemies. Vv'e at the Catholic High School selected PRIDVVEN as the title of our yearhook in the hope that every graduate may invoke Qur Lady's aid and ohtain the same guidance and protection King Arthur received. To us PRIDVJEN also has another significance, lt stands tor our Alma Mztter and everything concerning her. It mirrors the heauty of the huilding. It represents to us our hishop, pastors, parents, and friends who from hehind the scenes offer material and spiritual assistance for her growth and development, It is our principal, faculty, student hody, chefs, and caretakers, It is our student government. classes, hand, glee cluh, eluhs and athletic meets, It is our annual school play, drives, contests, and assemhlies, It is the visits from our Bishop, Pastors, and friends, It is our May Croxvning, Retreat, Upen House, Afternoon of Music, Christmas radio hroadcast, weekly Mass, and daily rosary, PRIDVJEN is the memory of all former principals, teachers. and students ever to grace the pertals of the school. It is the prayer for our alumni, henetlactors, and others once active here hut now resting in Eternity. It is the bringing forth of teenagers from seventeen parishes, moulding them as sons and daughters of Clatholic High and at the same time keeping them allied with their parochial duties. PRIDXVEN, then, to us means our coat of arms in which the Cross ot' Christ stands out prominently on the shield, Our Lady holds the most prominent corner, and over and above all the crown of glory awaiting all who remain true to the lessons learned at Catholic High.
