B.A., University of Notre Dame M.M., Vandercook College Director of Music Ethics In direct response to the admonition of Christ, Going therefore, teach ye all nations . . the Religion Department of Holy Cross proposes as its primary aim the perpetuation of the teachings of Holy Mother Church. This department, under the direction of Brother Matthew Gara, C.S.C., strives to care for the spiritual needs of the adolescent by providing him with sound religious instruction, and offering him constant opportunity for spiritual growth through daily visits to the Blessed Sacrament in the student chapel, opportunities for confession, development of the habit of the Morning Offering and Act of Contrition, and sound spiritual ad- vice offered in the daily Religious Bulletin. Besides these habit-forming opportunities, the student is encouraged to observe special practices of religious significance such as the October rosary, Father-Son communion breakfast, lenten sacrifice and the yearly retreat. Each student is required to make the annual school retreat, two days of silence, reflection and prayer, and special facilities are available to those who wish to make a weekend closed retreat at St. joseph's Retreat House at Valatie, N. Y. Besides the atmosphere of liturgical awareness provided by the large religious bulletin board on the main floor, all classrooms, stairwells and corridors have been amply provided with attractive and thought-provoking posters stressing moral obligations, devotion to Christ, the Blessed Virgin and the Saints, and the question of a possible religious vocation. Participation in diocesan poster contents, mission collections, prayer crusades and the annual TABLET drive is encouraged. Holy Cross men have led the diocese in obtaining subscriptions to the TABLET. This year has seen the formation of an active and growing mission society, students whose time is generously given to works of a truly Christian character.

This spring, however, saw the facilities of the weekend retreat opened to under- classmen also. Those who availed themselves of this fine opportunity enjoyed not only the special facilities of the retreat house, but the beautiful Catskill countryside and the lively bus ride as well.

On January 13 at 2:45 p.m., Brother josephat Chmielewski, C.S.C., supervised the organizational meeting of the Holy Cross Mission Unit. The aim of this new club is to aid the home and foreign missions through the media of collecting, sorting and selling stampsg collecting old medals and rosaries, bandage material for leporsoriums, used razor blades, Christmas cards, and last but not least, the offering of prayers by each of its members for mission intentions. It is hoped that through the opportunity provided by this Mission Unit that the students will have an excellent and very practicable way of exercising their Christian Charity and realizing their spiritual ideals. Now, a student will have a first-hand chance to truly enter into the spirit of sacrifice. He will be able to nurture immediately the supernatural virtues which, up to now, perhaps have been a dead letter-merely a page in the religion book.

THE WORD . . iiiiiliiiIIIIIIII BROTHER GEOFFREY SHIBER, CSC. B.A., University of Notre Dame Head of English Department English 4 Religion 3 Dramatics Forensics Stage Crew Alumni Student Government Perhaps the largest scholastic department at Holy Cross, the English Department, under the Chairmanship of Brother Geoffrey Shiber, C.S.C., strives to develop a well-rounded stu- dent, capable in the handling of the tools of language and appreciative of the best in Amer- ican English and world literature. Freshman and Sophomore years are spent concentrating on the complexities of grammar and vocabulary study and the groundwork in composition. In his Junior year the student becomes aware of the rich harvest of fine American literature that is his for the taking. And in the Senior year, he is introduced to the finest writers in English literature. Writing is now termed creative, and finer points of expression are the ideal sought after. Possibilities for broadening and developing language expression is opened outside the reg- ular classroom procedure through numerous extracurricular activities sponsored either directly or indirectly by the English Department. For those with the talent, time and tendency, opportunities for the perfecting of the art of forceful and persuasive speech are available in the Forensics Society, which trains students in debate, oratory and radio announcing. For those with a dramatic flair-the fall play provides the opportunity for excellent direction in acting and stage techniques. Unlimited sources for development of writing skills are offered to the staff members of the school newspaper and yearbook. A compulsory reading program, directed by Mr. Lipp, is aimed' at bettering reading speed and comprehension, and if the results of this program indicate the need of further improvement on the part of the student, he is encouraged to participate in a more extensive reading clinic conducted during after school hours. In summary, it may be said that the English Department at Holy Cross strives to condition the student to maintain his intellectual balance in a world flooded with cheap and degrading literature, and dominated by a tendency toward emphasis on scientific orientated thought.

The usual disagreements go on of Brother john jorepla Donnelly, C.S.C., Modemlor, interferes in tbe work Of :be edizors. For the fourth consecutive year, the LANCE continued to supply information and entertainment for Holy Cross students. From the narrow confines of the Publications room, a hard Working staff under the direction of co-editors Bob johnson and Dave Fulton and moderator Brother John joseph Donnelly, C.S.C., turned out the year's six editions. The past year saw the inauguration of an eight page literary supplement. The new addition gave a great number of stu- dents an opportunity to see their creative efforts in print. Wide news coverage continued to provide a record of events for future reference. Regular features such as and here we have, What's the Answer? and The Inquiring Reporter remained a source of knowledge and amusement for in- terested readers. Coverage of various clubs and organizations was extended to a greater number of students. During the fall, the LANCE editors bravely ventured forth from the Pub to attend the journalism school of the Cath- olic Institute of the Press. The seven session course provided these hardy souls with a greater knowledge of newspaper techniques. The year's final issue, traditionally written by the departing Seniors, brought to a close a memorable year of frantic deadv lines, hurried rewriting, and confused copy. It is surely a credit to the school that the LANCE was published entirely on the school premises. Few schools can boast a printing department set up to take care of all the needs of a full-fledged and attractive publication. The thanks of the LANCE staff goes to Brother Thomas Burns and his student printers for the fine job they did in printing the paper, and striving constantly to improve the appearance of the paper and raise the level of its artistic standards. we 1-.Q-flfar ar: sw 2 'Q fair! its R. .z r of as mf, 5 , sr 5 . 4 I JN - R , I f Effie? .. fl mf 'I' R M A R We ' Y- g , If s..,,f :e .,.. 1 gg eggs, ,, M ,..,.M..,,, 4, , ,,,..,,.,W,M,,,.,r.A,,,..

Last year's initial issue of the.CROSS had been well received by the students and faculty, and it was hoped that a new staff would be equal to the task of producing a volume of equal caliber again this year. After close to a hundred seniors answered the call for volunteers, and a staff list of approximately forty-five members was accepted, work on the annual began in earnest. Schedules were arranged for portraits for the three-hundred seniors with the DELMA STUDIOS of Manhattan. Their represent- atives set up a miniature studio in the art room and in a few short days the entire class had been photographed, with a minimum of class interruption. A few weeks later, the studio again returned and photographed the groups of underclassmen. Fifty-nine pictures were taken at this time. Meanwhile, the Publications office buzzed Cand frequently roaredj with the click of typewriters and confusion of the other staffs as they set about layout work and the identification of photos. Perhaps one of the most tedious of jobs fell to the Underclass Staff, whose job it was to check the identity and spelling of the twelve hundred names of underclassmen. They knew that there were bound to be errors in spelling, but they determined that they would be reduced to the smallest number possible. The Art Editor began his work on the pen and ink sketch of the school building and the Literary Editor began parceling out assignments for the various writeups. After careful deliberation and many doubts, the moderators and editors determined that the book would be arranged in a unique manner-completely according to departments, without the use of the usual divider pages, faculty section, social section or classroom section. Instead, they determined that the book would progress in an orderly fashion from department to department, including all activities-scholastic and social- pertinent to each departmental group. The dangers of such an organization of material were obvious from the start, but the desire to produce a book that reads from cover to cover as a single unified narrative was strong enough to carry the day. Some unforeseen difficulties did crop up, but we hope that they have been dealt with as gracefully as possible and that this issue of the CROSS will be a source of pleasure and inspira tion to all who come in contact with it.

The Holy Cross Forensic Society, under the direction of Mr. joseph Lipp, had a profitable season for wins, places and shows. They came out on top, or very near it, in most of their meets. This year's team was fortified by the addition of a number of enthusiastic Freshmen, and kept strong by the return of last year's underclass speakers. Noticeably short on Senior talent, the group should be strong on returning veterans next year. They deserve a great deal of credit for the many hours of preparation expended on their activity, and for the time they devote to meets during many of the week- ends throughout the school year.

Definitely the most heard from organization in the school is the Announcers' Club, a group of students organized within the framework of the Forensic Society and under the tutelage of the same moderator, Mr. Lipp. Each clay the familiar chimes of Station WHCHS ring through the building to proclaim the official beginning of the school day, and the reading of the Religious Bulletin and recitation of the Morning Offering. Later in the day the group airs any school news or bulletin which have been turned in to them during the day. Each day then ends with recitation of the Act of Contrition. The group uses well their many opportunities for rendering innumerable service to the faculty and student body. TECHNICAL DIRECTORS joseph Wasacz, john Serina, Richard Kryston.

A HOMEMADE ROMEO FOR HOLY CROSS Not all fans read their programs carefully, so not everyone who attended the performances of THE RELUCTANT ROMEO were aware that the entire production-with the exception of the rented Shakespearean costumes-was the outcome of Holy Cross talent and time. The dramatics department was very proud to present the first original work of one of the Holy Cross faculty members, Brother Geoffrey, the Head of the English Department. All those who witnessed this delightful and sensitively written play will agree that, first attempt though it may be, there was nothing amateurish about it. Certainly every observant student of Holy Cross recognized whimsical traces of school activities typical of the Cross. Student-teacher situations and teen-age triumphs and tragedies were humorously and believably portrayed. The technique of a play within a play allowed an opportunity for a few beautifully costumed and movingly acted scenes from Shake- speare to be enacted within the framework of a contemporary play, without the awkwardness sometimes associated with such an obvious technique in the hands of less gifted authors. The striking set, constructed by Brother Arthur O'Brien and the stage crew, and painted by Brother james Madigan and Al Bianculli, provided a perfect atmosphere for the play. The lighting, under the supervision of John derBoghossian, and the sound and background provided by Bob Shilling supplied the production with those innumerable professional touches which have become the trademark of student theatricals at Holy Cross.

Romeo A PRECISE NEEDED DISCIPLINE The twin aims of the Latin Department are to deepen the students' appreciation of the Roman Classics and to give them a precise discipline of the language. The four- year course, under the' Chairmanship of Brother Francis Regis, C.S.C., is divided into two obligatory years and two .elective years. The Freshmen try to master the basic Latin grammar, while the Sophomores struggle through the Argonauts and Caesar's Gallic Wars. The juniors and Seniors take more advanced coursesg the former pursue Cicero's orations, the latter read the intricate poetry of Virgil. To aid the student in his understanding and appreciation of Roman culture, class discussions and various projects depicting Roman life, architecture and art are added as complements to the classes. There are approximately 650 students accommodated in the Latin Department. The Freshmen and Sophomores have six classes each, while the Seniors and Juniors have two classes each. BROTHER MATTHEW!

In order to realize the ideals sug- gested by modern educators, a student would have to hear the language spoken frequently, and since the average American student is not reared in a home where a foreign language is spoken regularly, these ideals are very difficult to attain. For this reason and the fact that so little time is devoted to the study of language, little can be done, generally speaking, in achieving the ideal of fluency in the use of a lan- guage as a medium of conversation. Great effort is made, however, to teach the grammar, vocabulary, and idioms proper to the language, in order to give the student some learning tools if he wishes to pursue the study of French, Unfortunately, too, time limits the amount of cul- tural work that can be done in a short course, but here, too, a reas- onable amount of time is devoted to learning something about the people who use the language in their everyday lives. In an exchange of ideas between teacher and stu- dent, a certain amount of under- standing of, and friendship for, foreign peoples is achieved, and this should be one of the most worth- while results of any language study.

B,A., University of Notre Dame Algebra 1 Spanish 1, 2 Lost and Found Audio-Visual SPANISH Much the same can be said for the Spanish Depart- ment regarding aims and procedures. Today's Amer- ican youth are aware of the growing interest of the United States and other world powers in the Spanish and Latin American peoples as exemplified in the newspapers and the many diplomatic missions and tours. In view of this the knowledge of Spanish as a modern language bears some consideration. The two-year Spanish course at Holy Cross em- phasizes reading and grammatical construction as well as an insight into the cultural background of the Spanish speaking countries, An attempt and desire is to inculcate to a degree an appreciation of the var- ious problems confronting the Spanish people. A use of film strips, movies, newspapers, phonograph records are used to carry out this aim of progressing in the understanding of the language and the culture. There are approximately two hundred and fifty students enrolled in the modern language courses. 1,3 . gil . ttf.. i 4., , Q , E ,,.. . , , K , I 1 BROTHER JOSEPH ZACCARDO, CSC, B.S., Education, St. john's University K dp Religion 1 Business Arithmetic Spanish 1 Concessions , Ticket Manager i A barkgrouzzd in Spmzirlf :allure war .rupplied by Brother jolm Ilarougly the ure of colorful filmfzripr. 2 P I f - 1 KEEPING THE VISION OF THE PAST, ..

History In the fields of diplomacy, politics, public relations, law-in fact, in our day-to-day activity and social intercourse, history certainly can add its wealth of human experience and knowledge toward our develop- ment. The development of the individual in widening his intellectual horizons and consequently uplifting us as a community, as a people, as a race, is one of the primary objectives of the study of the social sci- ences. Man's problems, his endeavors to meet these problems of life, his successes and failures are repeated to an extent down through the ages. Advancement in anything can only come about effectively by way of refinement from a foundation already well established and ever being built upon. If each meet our life from the beginning without help from others we would most likely be forever never growing beyond a given point. In a practical sense, therefore, the lessons we can a sound study of history are many. Mr. joseph Lipp, the able head of the Social Studies Department, realizing the importance of his De- partment, supervises its administration and application with great interest and care. An unbiased view where applicable and a level-headed, well informed citizen with the highest re- gard for the worth of the individual is the aim and hope for each student of Holy Cross in his social studies. analysis and of us had to starting and derive from R ,,, llllll IIIII .6 1 I II .... ..- ..........

Typing, Bookkeeping I and II, Business Management and Business Law are the required and elective business courses available throughout the four years under the college prep programg Introduction to Business, Typing, Business Arithmetic, Business Manage- ment and Business Law are the subjects taken by non-college students. By the very nature of the majority of the high school business subjects, the aim is to impart to the students a practical working un- derstanding of business organization, procedure and management without at all neglecting or minimizing the provision for a sufficient amount of fundational background knowledge supporting the business world. A business graduate will thus be well prepared to gc on for higher studies in business education or else take his place vocationally in this field. Wfhenever and wherever possible, ethical business practices which are based upon the natural law of God are emphasized and drawn out of the subject matter in order that a Holy Cross business graduate will have the opportunity toward becoming a credit to himself, to his fellow man, and to his country.

Stage Crew MEASURING THE UNKNOWN IN THE INFINITE PHENOMENA OF THE AMAZING WORLD OF SCIENCE The Science Department at Holy Cross, in keeping with today's emphasis on science offers a thorough ro d p gram esigned to give every student a background in science. Although it would not mind r d p o uc- ing an Einstein or a Pasteur, this is not its primary end, Its first aim is to give each student a deeper knowledge and insight into the world about us. Then, for those who intend to continue in science and engineering, a program is offered to give a solid foundation for their future studies. To accomplish these aims this Department has established a curriculum which includes the life sci- ences, the physical and earth sciences. The department offers courses in Biology, Physics, and Chem- istr . Th th ' ' ' y ese ree courses are enough to satisfy the first aim of the Department-to give a deeper knowl- edge and insight into the world around us. To satisfy those students who are not content with just the required amount, the department offers various allied activities. Each student is able to choose the club h t . . . . , . . . . e wan s to participate in and thus specialize in the field of his greatest interest. Under the direction of the Department Head, Brother josaphat, this department meets the demands of our modern culture. Science and scientific knowledge are fast becoming the standard by which we 'ud e a t Th J g coun ry. e Merchantile Theory of judging a country by its wealth is on the way out. Today the great country is determined by its scientific knowledge and advancement, while its gold mass has be- come secondary. Thus, this department is not only producing the scientists of tomorrow, but also an- swering the call of our country in helping to fight the cold war.

Mathematics, often referred to as the language of the sciences, is taught in many forms at Holy Cross. Beside the regular courses in algebra, geometry and trigonometry there are classes in calculus and modern mathematics. These courses are geared to make the heavy bur- den of college math lighter for the science student. Every person who takes these courses should be able to find his way through higher institutions much easier. The Mathematics Department under the di- rection of Mr. James Close tries to create a logical outlook con- cerning the different applications and theories. This state of mind must exist if a man decides to major in any of the sciences. From the cuneiform mathematics of the Sumerians to the present day numerals, logic plays the major part. After four years of study, terms such as complex number, curve, decimal, dimension, and determinant become common. Slowly we began to assimilate the knowledge that was collectively given to us by the Greeks, French, Italians and English. Soon we will put this learned material to practice in college. Then we will come to realize the value of the math courses taught us at Holy Cross, Brother james Rolla rbecks ibe work of ,mme of hir meclmniml dmufing rludenlr. ,, . f fk. 52. 4' ,. , s , 1 . 0 O 0 b gs fo ' 1 .. . 8 .

As the above display of work suggests, members of the Art Department have engaged in a busy and fruitful year. This particular display is the work of only seven members of the advanced class. Two other larger classes concentrated on designg one group tending toward commercial art techniques, and the other toward architecture and spacial relations. This year witnessed changes in the art curriculum, designed to broaden the scope of class in- struction, introduce new techniques seldom used in high school classes, and help prepare the more serious artists for examinations and entrance requirements and portfolios for art schools. As a result of a poll of students interested in art classes and art careers, class groups were ar- ranged and a syllabus planned accordingly. This spring a similar poll will be taken in preparation for next fall's classes. The interest of the students fell into three categories this year, hence, the division into design for commerce and architecture, and painting or illustrating. Books on art techniques and art history were made available to the students through the art departments own lending library. Because of the above display of student work, and others which appeared throughout the school, general student interest in the department greatly increased during the year. It is hoped that next September will see as substantial an increase in art students as was witnessed last fall. The calibre of fine artwork obvious throughout the yearbook is evidence of the successful adapta- tion of many of the commercial techniques mastered by some of the Senior art students.

Mezzfrhing, Studefll Colzduflor, WIIJJIIIQQ, Music has always had a prominent place at Holy Cross. A period for Band instruction has been included in the curriculum, individual instruction of students on the musical instrument of their choice has been provided for, and a special position of honor has always been reserved for the school band at all major school functions. The music department this year is under the capable direction of Brother Renatus Foldenauer, C.S.C., who came to Holy Cross after serving in the same capacity for many years at Vincentian Institute in Albany. Brother brought with him the same devotion to fine music and the same in- sistence on perfection which enabled him to turn out first rate musicians in the past. That the varsity band has approached close to these ideals began to become obvious earlier this past spring when, in its first competition of this kind, the band earned an award of Outstanding at the First.

The Holy Cross Varsity Band of 1959-60 is composed of seventy-five members. Their work be- gins the first week of school and continues until they play at the graduation exercises late in June. Besides their work during half-time at football games, the band participates in parades and music festivals and performs at their annual Spring Concert each spring. Freshmen are encouraged at the beginning of their high school career to join the Freshman Band and prepare during their first year at Holy Cross to take the place in the Varsity Band of the graduating seniors the following year. This year also saw the inauguration of a swing band of twenty members, who made their debut at the March meeting of the Fathers' Club. We hope to hear much more from them in the fu- ture. Row I: E.

Weeks of re- hearsal under the direction of choreographer joseph Hayes sharpened the dancers to near perfection. Music director Clay Boland, jr., spent many hours perfecting the work of the mixed vocal choruses and the soloists. Brother Geoffrey did a wonderful job directing the dialogue and providing the leads with numerous touches of stage business which helped raise the level of the production above the level of amateur entertainment. Brother Daniel Redmond headed the hard-working stage crew and Brother Gerard Suddick saw to it that makeup, moustaches and victorian sideburns were applied where needed. The production was written by Brother James Madigan who was also responsible for the set design.

Early in the year the group was re-organized under the direction of Brother Arthur O'Brien, who was responsible for directing the con- struction of the beautiful set for the Reluctant Romeo. When Brother Arthur returned to Texas at mid-semester time, Brother Geoffrey took over as moderator. He worked with the group on the Squires variety show and the annual Band Concert. Besides these major entertainments, the crew functioned at all assemblies, parents meetings, and school retreats. Again this year they did a great deal of construction work in the stage storage rooms. SOUND CREW Bob Schilling, Tim Fagan, Pat Keane.

AND THOSE WHO PHOTOGRAPHED THE SCENES One of the outstanding groups in ren- dering service to the school has been the Phototradesmen Guild. This group has been responsible for processing all of the candids used in the CROSS and LANCE. Their hours of labor in the dark confines of the school's darkroom are deeply appreciated by the CROSS staff. Besides the service mentioned above, the group has as an objective the learning of proper techniques in taking and processing photographs. All of the excellent equipment of the darkroom is at their disposal. Members of the Camera Club are intro- duced to these processes also, and spend some time in discussing their work and the work of professionals in the field. A Freshman group has also been formed and part of their work is concerned with keeping the contact print file up to date. Row l.' F. Honerkamp, J. Malinowski, H, Hild, D. L'Abbate. Row II: J.

Headed by Brother Thomas Burns, this two-year old department has grown in concept, output and prestige during its young existence. Attending regular classes of instruction, graphic arts students master the fundamentals of graphic arts techniques, namely, hand-setting of type, layout work and the use of hand and automatic presses. The department is equipped with two hand presses and one automatic press. Student printers also learn how to manipulate the electric stapling machine and an industrial size paper cutter. Besides the work done in their classes, a group of these students also report to work on Saturdays to function as a work group. It is their job to assist Brother Thomas in setting up and printing the LANCE, the Province newspaper of THE HOLY CROSS BROTHERS. They also print all school forms, tickets and programs, and have recently printed an attractive two color vocations folder for the Brothers. This folder was de- signed in conjunction with the Holy Cross Art Department. These are busy young men, intent upon mastering their art and bettering the calibre of their work. The school has watched with pride their growing accomplishments. Q-:EX I Q 1,4 '7'kiil0-4h wqf BROTHER THOMAS BURNS, C.S.C.

H f 0 -A N supplement for study, through an excellent reference section. Under the direction of the Librarian, Brother Franciscus Willett, C.S.C., the library was started and has been expanded in both scope and content in the five years of its existence. It procures the finest available literature of all kinds, fitted to suit all tastes, and provides fully for the needs of the student, both academically and for private reading pleasure. The library listening room is well stocked with a varied selection of recordings both as a teach- ing tool and as a means of arousing interest in literature for outside pleasure and benefit. Some of the varied services which the library provides are vocational and pamphlet files, and a file of mounted reproductions of fine art masterpieces. The Librarian and his staff of student volunteers strive to keep the Holy Cross library running in a smooth, harmonious manner and suc- ceed admirably in this respect. They are continually stimulating interest in literature and intellect- ual endeavors in general, through the use of varied attractive displays. The fact that the volumes contained in the library are so diversified is not by accident. Each book has been carefully selected for its value as an academic aid or for its literary content. We at Holy Cross are thankful for our well stocked and well run library, for the aid it provides, and the riches it contains within its volumes. y ...,,,,,w? f 'I ma 'l'0n', w 4 Muni' :Ima Gee whiz-cbooring rome recordf to lirterz to ir almorl at bard dl trying to decide what kind of ' ire fream to buy, .

To aid the student toward this discovery, a battery of tests is administered over the period of his four years at Holy Cross by the Guidance Department, under the direction of Brother Ralph jaworski, CSC. In an attempt to utilize every available means to direct students toward the individual goal where happiness and success seem his to attain, this department administers the Iowa I. Test, the Otis Classification Test, the SRA Primary Abilities Test, the Kuder Preference Record, Tests of General Ability, and the Youth Inventory SRA Test. For the Junior, and especially the Senior, only steps away from college, there are avail- able such opportunities as the National Merit Scholarship Exam, the New York State Regents Scholarship Exam, and the College Board Examinations. These tests enable the school administration to choose wisely the course of studies a boy can handle during his high school years and aid in the direction of the Senior toward a field, a course of studies, and particular colleges where his potential can be more readily realized. Bill Rina awaits hir turn to diJfuJ.r exam retulir with Brother Ralph. In addition to the above mentioned aids, is the Reading Program set up at Holy Cross to increase speed comprehension and to raise the level of comprehension. There are a number of groups engaged in the extra- curricular reading program. This phase of the guidance department is under the direction of Mr. joseph Lipp, who has also conducted reading clinics at Holy Cross for the purpose of instructing the nuns from area grammar schools in some of the latest reading techniques.

CATHOLIC COLLEGES PRESENT PROGRAM FOR SENIORS AND PARENTS AT SECOND ANNUAL COLLEGE NIGHT Under the direction of Brother Marcian, Dean of Men, Holy Cross held its second annual College Night, Monday, October 26. Representatives from twenty Catholic colleges were present at the school offering bulletins, pamphlets, and brochures concerning their respective colleges to this year's graduates. The schools present offered a vast curriculum that is capable of fitting the needs of any average high school senior. This night should have proved the turning point in the educational background of our outgoing seniors. The representatives of each college answered questions regarding the colleges with respect to their programs, campus, employment, scholarships, extracurricular activities and any other questions in the minds of the students and their parents. Some of the outstanding colleges from the surrounding area that were represented: St. John's University, St. Francis College, Brooklyn, Fordham University, Manhattan College, Iona College, New Rochelle, and Fairfield University in Fairfield, Connecticut. For those students who wish to board on campus, such schools as Holy Cross College, Worcesterg Boston College, Boston, Notre Dame, South Bend, Indiana, Siena, Loudonvilleg Dayton University, Day- ton, and Providence, Rhode Island, offer outstanding facilities to them. Many of last year's seniors took advantage of the opportunities of college night to settle on the college of their choice, and apply immediately for admission. The class of '59, the first graduating class to leave Holy Cross for higher educational circles, can truly be said to be nation-wide, with six students in Texas and one enrolled in the far-off University of Alaska. Although St. johns in particular and the metropolitan col- leges in general admitted most of the students, they are well- scattered in colleges across the country. Three hundred and sixty- five graduates are attending seventy-three different schools, with one hundred and fifteen ex-Knights at St. johns Other colleges in and around the city, which were re resented in both collere B r o z lo e r Alexander, 0.5'.F., Regiflmr of Si.

Cafeteria Director Brother Harold would have a heavy enough responsibility on his hands if the scope of his job ended with the feeding of the student body, but watching this energetic Brother tending to his many duties would lead one to believe that his work only starts here. The cafeteria is usually a beehive of activity-hot chocolate before school, milkshakes after school and social affairs at night and on weekends. One busy Saturday saw the cafeteria decorated for use by the Woman's Guild for a morning affair, cleaned and redecorated for use that evening for a dance. Brother Harold, assisted by his crew of twenty-four students, is the man behind these quick changes, and busy moderators are grateful to him for the hours of service he renders to them in preparing the cafeteria for the use of their organizations.

AT Thanks to the Department of Health of the City of New V York, Holy Cross has a physician in residence at the school - .. , five days a week, Dr. Dominic Oddo, M.D. lt is Doctor's job to supervise the general health of the boys, reviewing fav, their health records which have followed them from grammar f-.,,,,,,, i school, to determine whether any students are in need of special medical attention. Conferences are then held with these students to make whatever medical arrangements are Q fi? M necessary. i iii iiif i.'l H One of the most consistent services rendered to the students 5-f i, .. jig Y by Doctor Oddo is the physical examination for working ptv, If -llz ,'.V , 1 papers, which must be performed by a doctor approved by the iijfi if city Board of Health, rather than a family physician. Those students intending to engage in an interscholastic sports pro- gram must also undergo a complete medical examination previous to their acceptance by the team. Emphasis has been placed on encouraging each student as he enters Holy Cross in his Freshman year, to receive parental DR. DOMINIC ODDO, M.D School Physician permission to undergo a yearly Tuberculosis test. This year introduced the administer- ing of the Heaf Tuberculin Test, a complete departure from the previous tuberculin tests administered in the past. Students registering positive results in these tests are sent, each year that they are at Holy Cross, for X-ray examination. His keen interest in all phases of life at Holy Cross has led Dr. Oddo to volunteer his services as Team Physician, and he is a familiar sight at all of the Holy Cross football games, Thanks is also in order here to Dr. Richard Dietz, who has likewise volunteered himself to the athletic department and has generously made himself available to the school on many occasions when emergencies demanded immediate medical attention.

It is required of all Freshmen and Sophomores that they attend gym periods which are aimed at teaching the growing youngster some of the basic requirements of safety and health, and providing him with facilities for supervised physical exercise, directly intended to develop coordination and physical skills that tend toward a healthy, active life. Besides the scheduled gym periods, a comprehensive intramural program, involving over four hundred students, is sponsored by the department. The gym periods are directed by Mr. Connors, Mr. Foge and Mr. Kelleher, assisted this year by a group of Senior instructors who help introduce Freshmen to the correct procedures involved in basketball, baseball and calisthenics. Spring affords the gym groups the opportunity of plenty of outdoor exercise with periods of softball, handball and track activitiesg and in the Fall, the lusty, noisy vigor of football.

MICHAEL 14 The Knights were shut out in their '59 debut 14-0 by a surprisingly mobile Mt. St. Michael team. Led by back Art Bausch and guard Doug DeMatteo the Mounties out- charged and out-maneuvered the Holy Cross 11. Al- though there wasn't much for the 5,000 fans who jammed into Memorial Field to cheer about, the Knights did have their moments. joe Savitscus made one of the best runs of the afternoon when he swept around the left end in the first period. Carmen Flamino, stymied most of the game by the defense, bulled his way through for twelve yards on another good run. A bullet pass from Marty Feely to Bill Ricca was good for another Holy Cross first down. The toll of graduation was heavily felt as inexperience in crucial moments hurt us considerably. There were only four '58 letter winners on the line for the Green and Gold. Among the juniors who stood out in this, their first varsity game, were Bob Villhauer, Roger Consolla, and Ed Petranek, Bench warmers in '58 Ray DiScala and Bob Hoart excelled in this game.

EOR THESE GRADUATING KNIGHTS, THIS SEASON TERMINATED THEIR FOOTBALL HOLY CROSS 6-STEPINAC 12 The Knights were on the verge of an upset when with four minutes re- maining in the game, Stepinac unleashed Bob Verdisco. He went over from the two yard line which knotted it 6-6, and minutes later caught a pass to the touchdown that clinched the victory, 12-6. Up until that point the Knights had outplayed the Crusaders, but those four minutes were long enough to turn the tide the other way. The Knights jumped out to an early lead in the first quarter when Tom Carley caught a touchdown pass from Marty Feely. For three quarters this touchdown was enough as the line turned in sparkling defense, Pat Keneally was outstanding blocking a punt which set up the touchdown. Ricca was named lineman of the week by the coaches of the league because Stepinac c0uldn't turn his end. The center of the line held up well with Roger Hayes making his presence felt. Mr. Stetter's charges proved in this game they are one of the toughest lines to crack. Tom Carley magr a par: in the end zone for an early More in lbe Stepinaf Game.

HOLY CROSS 15 -HAYES 6 Victory, long overdue, was finally theirs as the Knights topped Cardinal Hayes 15 to 6 at Randall's Island. It was the Knights' ball game all the way. Dominating the play, the Knights held the Cardinals to two first downs. With everything going so well, the coaches were able to substitute liberally in the second half. The Green and Gold spotted Hayes 6 points on a 37 yard pass from Frank Orlando to Mike Fletcher, The first Holy Cross touchdown was scored by Marty Feely, who circled the end for 26 yards. Carmen, Flamino bulled his way through the middle to add two extra points. The second Holy Cross touchdown was set up by smart defensive work. When Pat Keneally blocked a punt in the second quarter, Richie Bosticco fell on the loose ball in the end zone for the six-pointer. 'Leon Kane added the extra point on a placement.

FRANCIS 20 In this game, the Knights beat the Terriers at their own game, a passing offense, and still came up on the short end of the score 20-6. lt was the Knights best game of the season and St. Francis' coach, Vinnie O'Connor, was quoted as saying, their de- fensive line was tremendous. We had to play their game and wait for the breaks. As so often happened this year, the Knights were overhauled and beaten in the latter part of the game. Bill Ricca was playing for keeps in the game as he not only scored the H.C. touchdown but also was a defensive standout, blocking two punts. In the second quarter Ricca took a pass from Marty Feelyand scampered into the end zone. Once the H.C. ll got as close as the seven yard line and another time they reached the ten, but both times the Terriers dug in and held them. The defense was great on the whole, but special credit goes to the boys who were out on defense protecting against Dan Henning's passes. Gene Sweeney -and joe Savitscus did a fine job block' i ing passes. The Knights showed that they could work an effective pass offense. Feely hit his target tive out of seven times, and joe Savitscus hit Tom Carley on three succes- sive jump passes. Keneally fwitla ballj leadx tbe rest of the Knighti for 4 30 yard :barge again!!

HOLY CROSS 34-EORDHAM PREP 14 There are days when everyone looks good and this was one of them as Holy Cross clobbered the Ramlets, 34-14. In the first quarter Marty Feely registered the first of his three touchdowns on a twelve yard sprint. Marty scored again on a 56 yard reverse play which caught the Fordham defense going the wrong way. Joe Savitscus completed a 24 yard pass to Bob Villhauer for the Knights third T.D. Leon Kane's three placements gave the H.C. gridmen a 21-0 lead at the half. Held to short gains most of the sea- son, Carmen Elamino exploded all over the place. He had runs of 23 and 21 yards, a kickoff return of 57 yards, and finally in the third quarter, a touchdown on a 12 yard run through the middle. The Holy Cross score was set up by a 24 yard pass from Feely to Frank Wright. With the ball on the Fordham 49 yard line, Feely took a pass from Savitscus in the flat and followed his blockers the rest of the distance to the goal line. Kane made it a four-for-five afternoon when he booted the extra point. The backfield wasn't the only bright spot in the game, as the line also was outstanding. HOLY CROSS 14EIONA PREP 8 Doing the things they do best-passing on offense and digging in on defense -the H.C. 11 came from behind to win their second league game 14-8. The Gaels took an 8-O lead in the first quarter when jim Garrison scored a touchdown on an eighty-yard run and then added two bonus points. The Knights wasted no time getting back into the ball game for they scored on the very next play from scrimmage. Marty Feely hit Torn Carley on a pass play that was good for eighty-three yards and a touchdown. Feely added the extra points on an aerial from joe Savitscus. With less than four minutes remaining in the game, Bob Villhauer hit pay dirt on a four-yard slant to break the tie. Constantly being rushed by the H.C. line, the Iona passer frequently had to throw hurriedly or else eat the ball. This resulted in many incompletions and three interceptions. Feely, Villhauer, and Savitscus each grabbed an Iona pass that went astray. Ray DiScala and Roger Hayes led the defensive charge that caused havoc in the Iona backfield. Lineman Leon Kane and Ed Petranek and Linebackers Pat Keneally and Richie Bosticco played important roles in stopping Iona's single wing. Carley :rarer again.

HOLY CROSS 7-CHAMINADE 28 The Knights' big homecoming was spoiled when the Flyers topped them 28-7. Chaminade, led by Ralph Brandewiede, who hit his receivers for three touchdowns and Mike McDonough, who added another 10 points himself opened up a lead in the first three quarters that the Knights could not overcome. Greg Shorten Q34 yardsj, Pete Riordan Q22 yardsj and Frank Fee Q43 yardsj were on the receiving end of Brandewiede's passes. The small but fast Chaminade line stopped the Holy Cross running attack cold, The Knights were most effective through the air averting a shutout by scoring on an aerial in the final minutes of the ball game. Sal Armenio completed three passes in three attempts, Feely hit his re- ceiver twice in four attempts, and joe Savitscus threw one completion in three passes. joe Savitscus caught a 25 yard pass from Feely on the goal line and stepped into the end zone for the touchdown. Leon Kane added the extra point on a placement. The defense, which was so fine all year long, was weakest in this, the most decisive margin of defeat all year long.

In the annual Thanksgiving Day Classic that decides the Queens Scholastic Football Champions, the Charging Knights upset the favored Flushing Red Devils, 14-6. In taking the mythical title, the Holy Cross Il outplayed the P.S.A.L. Division II champs in every de- partment. Things looked pretty bad when Flushing took the opening kickoff and proceeded to march downfield for a touchdown. But after that first drive, the defensive line kept Flushing bottled up. Keeping the speedy Red Devil backfield in check was a difficult assignment, but the line was capable of doing it. Next year's newly elected Co-Captain Frank Wright played a solid game as linebacker. Outstanding and immovable on the line were Roger Hayes, Bill Ricca, and Ray DiScala. Ed Keane, and Bob Hoart were valuable assets as defensive end and guard respectively, Flushing was credited with being one of the best defensive clubs in the P.S.A.L. allowing only thirty-six points in six games and shutting out four opponents. The job done by the offensive line in opening gaping holes in that indestructible wall was superb. Noteworthy performances were turned in by Pat Keneally and Richie Bosticco, who platooned the work at center.

The first Holy Cross TD climaxed a sustained drive which started on.their own thirty-four yard line, Carmen Flamino scored the touchdown on a two yard plunge. An intercepted pass in the fourth period by joe Savitscus started another touchdown drive. It took the Knights only eight plays to cover the forty-one yards from the point of interception to the end zone and victory. Marty Feely hit pay dirt on a five yard end around play. Co-Captain elect Bob Villhauer took a hand- off and sliced through the middle of the line for a bonus pair. Carmen Flamino, who saved his best performance for his last at Holy Cross, received the William Ellard Memorial Trophy as the game's most valuable player. Carmen was the workhorse of the backfield and helped set up both touchdowns. With the vic- tory came the Long Island Star-journal Trophy emblematic of Queens' football supremacy. A win next year by Holy Cross would retire the trophy. The Knights have captured two of the three legs necessary for permanent retention of the trophy.

This is certainly evident in the field of athletics, especially when large groups of par- ticipants are involved, as they are in football. The various athletic directors see to the plan- ning, but it is the job of the student athletic managers to complete the variety of prepara- tions necessary to clothe and equip the three football squads when they report both for prac- tice and for games. They are the first to arrive at the locker rooms-and the last to leave. Thanks. men. The moral support of a student body is considered a necessary adjunct of a well- rounded athletics program. The job of encouraging loud and active spectator-par- ticipation at athletic events falls to the cheering squad. This year's group added color to pep rallies through the addition of colorful and comic placards to their gear. Senior jon Zegers racked one assembly with his multi- versed version of Bo-Diddley.

The varsity compiled a 14-4 record, and not to be outdone, the jayvee won 11 and lost 3, and the freshmen had a 14-5 season. On the varsity level it was the best team that ever wore the Holy Cross uniform. They were effective because Mr. Connors TN ez .2 ' Q had them well drilled in the fundamentals of the game. The way Cucinello and Savitscus worked the give and go, the way Edgar and McGowan would set up McIntyre for his jump shot, the way Gavigan and Feely got position under the boards for reboundsg these are all fundamental aspects of basketball, but the way they executed them was responsible for many wins. The Knights were not tremendous scorers for they only averaged 54 points a game, but they were terrific hustlers on defense, allowing only 46 points a game. With this hustling nature they also had a desire to win. In all it was one heck of a season for the Green and Gold.

WITH FOURTEEN WINS AND FOUR LOSSES HOLY CROSS 34-FLUSHING 28 Holy Cross started the basketball season off just as it had wound up the football season with a victory over Flushing. The Red Devils matched Holy Cross point for point in every quarter of this low scoring game, but the third when they were out- scored 8-2. Marty Feely was high man for the Holy Cross combine with 10 points, while Bob McIntyre's 17 rebounds controlled the backboards for the Knights. The Knights hit only 11 field goals and missed 13 foul shots in a bad case of first game jitters. HOLY CROSS 72 - FLUSHING 50 The Knights did not have any jitters in their return engagement with Flushing and breezed to a 72-50 victory. Included in these 72 points were 31 by Bob McIntyre which established a new school record. His 11 field goals and 9 free throws bettered the old mark of 27 held by jimmy Raftery by four points. Ed Flood tossed in 11 points and Cuccinello added 10 in the winning effort. The Holy Cross defense did a fine job in stopping the Red Devil's Howie Gulker, the Queens II PSAL scoring champ. The big center scored only one point in the entire game. ' 'Z HOLY CROSS 52 M REGIS 43 Hustling all the way, the Knights were un- daunted by an early Regis lead and fought back to win going away 52-43. The margin might have been greater than nine points had the team been better from the foul line. They missed 16 free throws hitting 18 for 34. It was a close game for three quarters but in the final stanza Bill Gavigan scored 10 of his 11 points and john McGowan scored 7 of his 12 point total to ice the game. Fred Cuca cinello was the third man in double figures with 10. ev -f.' , , 1 ' , W STEPINAC 61 - HOLY CROSS 53 Blowing a five point half time lead, the Green and Gold dropped its first game of the '59-'60 season by a score of 61-53 to Stepinac. With four players in double figures including Sal Mastropolo's game high of 18 points, the Crusaders just couldn't be caught once they had assumed the lead. Bob McIntyre led the Holy Cross cagers with 16 points on 7 buckets and 2 free throws. John McGowan's 12 and Bill Gavigan's 10 helped keep the Knights in the thick of things for three quarters. HOLY CROSS 46 - REGIS 45 Regis came close to ending the Holy Cross winning streak at 7 games, but when the final buzzer sounded their late rally had fallen one point short. Holy Cross got out in front early and assumed a lead that varied between 3 and 6 points most of the way. In the final minute of play it was john McGowan who made two free throws to supply the game's clinching points. Playing an excellent game, Bob McIntyre was the Big Green's most pro' lific scorer and also their best man under the boards. He scored 20 points and teamed up with Marty Feely to control the boards. . 1 1 ' STEPINAC 52 - HOLY CROSS 50 Stepinac, the New York CHSAA City Champions, came from behind to erase a four point half time lead in downing Holy Cross 52-50. The big men on the squad had their finest day leading the scoring and grabbing a good percent of the rebounds. McIntyre scored 19 points on jump shots from the corner and driving layups. Doug Edgar's 18 points came on a wide variety including taps, hook shots, and jumpers. The rebounding was the best it had been with Ed Flood very strong under the defensive boards. i'fT:5l'a::. Tl SUPERB TEAMWORK AND PERSISTENT ST. MARY'S 58 - HOLY CROSS 50 St. Mary's broke a close game open in the third quarter to record a 58-50 decision over the Knights. The driving layups of Jess Shea and the outside shooting of Charles Martin sparked the St. Mary's rally. Shea scored 17 and Martin added 15 points. For Holy Cross, Marty Feely was high man with 18 points. Bill Gavi- gan the most effective rebounder and also con- tributed 8 points. Weakness from the foul line did not help close the gap. Holy Cross was 10 for 25 at the foul line. HOLY CROSS 71 - MOUNT ST. MICHAEL 54 With everyone playing top-flite ball, the Knights ran the Mounties ragged as they sur- prised with a 71-54 victory on the losers' court. The Holy Cross hoopsters were sparked by the scoring and ball handling of Fred Cuccinello. Fred had 19 points on 6 baskets and 7 free throws. Feely and McIntyre with 14 and 11 points respectively played important roles in the victory. jim Dooley, a fine outside shooter, was high for the Mount with -8 points. .HWY iii? - . 5' fix -511 ,... Q ' 'i S ' 5522 ' BAYSIDE 50 - HOLY CROSS 47 Don't pay any attention to the record in a rivalry is an old saying and it held true as Bay- side upset the Knights 50-47. In the tense final minutes some rebounding strength and accuracy from the foul line held Holy Cross off. Charley George hit 7 for 7 from the free throw line in registering 15 points which was the high for the Commodores. The offensive standouts were Cuccinello with 13 points and Feely and Savitscus each with 11. HOLY CROSS 45 - ST. MARY'S 39 Possession is nine-tenths of the law and it is also a good way to get 7 points in a basket- ball game. The Knights had the game won if they could hold their slim two point lead in the final stanza. With four minutes remaining Mc- Gowan and Cuccinello started to freeze the ball. St. Maryis went after it and fouled the game away. The difference was registered on the foul line where Holy Cross sunk 13 and St. Mary's dropped in 6 free throws. In the final minutes McGowan hit five free throws and Cuccinello hit two to put the game out of reach. ., ., ...ss ,.,,,,,, .X . . ., . H. C. VARSITY 72 -ALUMNI 64 A game that should become a tradition around these ivied-walls was won by the present charges of Mr. Connors. The varsity trounced the Alumni 72-64. Leading the Holy Cross barage was Bob McIntyre with 17 points and Marty Feely with 14. McGowan's 13 and Cuccinello's 11 put the game out of reach. For the old-timers the leading scorer was Tony Armenio now of' Fordham with 16 points. Rounding out the top five were Bob Arnone, St. john'sg jim Raftery, St. Francis of Brook- lyng .Mike Baker and Charlie Carnesi, Iona.

The Knights were slow starting, but when they finally got rolling in the second quarter, Bayside was left in the dust. The game was a fitting climax to the season so everyone had a hand in the win. Bob McIntyre scored 13 points to lead all Holy Cross scorers, while close behind with 12 and 11 points respectively were Marty Feely and john-McGowan. The game's high total of 17 points was recorded by the Commodores' Char- ley George. - -,-..-- 1 ,-f, ..,. .............. , .....1i... ,.a. . ,, S .,.,, ..,, gif. 1 gl DRIVE PAID OFF AS THE SCORES INDICATE HOLY CROSS 56 - FORDHAM PREP 48 Cool heads and sharp shooting gave the Knights a 56-48 victory over the Fordham Prep Ramlets. The victory snapped a two game losing streak and started the Knights on a 10- game winning streak. The backcourt men, Savitscus, McGowan, and Cuccinello, did a fine job of controlling the ball against the full court press used by Fordham. In- side shooting by Gavigan who had 13 and jump shooting by Mclntyre who had 12 were keys in the Holy Cross victory. HOLY CROSS 62 - IONA PREP 40 The Green and Gold made it three in a row as they whipped Iona Prep 62-40. It was the first game in which all ten members of the varsity entered the scoring column. John McGowan and Fred Cuccinello with 12 points each shared top honors for the Knights. The Knights started slow- ly scoring only 22 points in the first half, but ripped the defense wide open in the second half scoring 20 points in both the third and fourth quarters. The Gaels could not cope with the over- all height advantage Holy Cross had. HOLY CROSS 53 - VINCENTIAN 51 Hampered by the confines of a small court, the Charging Knights had to fight right down to the final minutes to beat Vincentian of Albany 53-51. In the final minutes Savitscus scored 3 points and Cuccinello 1 to insure the victory. Bob McIntyre with 8 field goals and 4 foul shots be- came the first Holy Cross player to hit 20 points this season. joe Savitscus netted 19 points on 6 buckets and 7 free throws. Kevin Carmody col- lected 28 points for the up-staters. HOLY CROSS 42 - FORDHAM PREP 40 In a real squeaker on the University Court at Fordham, the Knights, paced by Fred Cuccinello's scoring and Bob McIntyre's defensive play, edged the Ramlets 42-40. It was the first victory for a Holy Cross aggregation on Fordhanfs court in all three years of their varsity competition. Cuc- cinello was the most effective scorer for the Knights as he threw in 15 points. With the Knights aggressive zone defense, the Rarnlets were not able to feed their big gun, Bob Suchy, who averaged over twenty points a game, and thus suffered the setback. It was a hard-earned victory and one of their best of the season. HOLY CROSS 51 - IONA 39 The Gaels got their second crack at Holy Cross and again wound up on the short end of the score. This time it was by a 51-59 score. It was never a close contest with the Knights opening up as much as a fifteen point lead in the third quarter. Bob Mclntyre set the pace for the Knights with fourteen points while Ken Wagner was tops for Iona with nineteen points. Doug Edgar scored eleven points for the winning cause. The defense was as strong as ever as it held Iona's top gun, Gaudet, to ten points with only one in the second half. Only Wagner was able to solve the tricky Holy Cross defense. 2 C... ' ii HOLY CROSS 68 - McCLANCY 46 Ten up at the halfway point, the Knights hit forty percent of their floor shots and sixty-five percent of their foul shots in the second half to bury McClancy 68-46. McClancy which had been averaging close to 60 points a game was really stalled by the Holy Cross defense. Marty Feely played his best game of the season scoring 22 points and rebounding strongly, Feely hit eight of 17 shots from the floor for a forty-seven per- cent shooting average. Bob McIntyre's shooting was really sharp as he hit 11 of 12 free throws on his way to 17 points. John McGowan contributed 13 points to the Holy Cross cause, while Dick Alexander-scored 13 for the Crusaders. L L JAYVEES FOLLOW SUIT WITH A 11-3 RECORD R. Sacco, T. Dougherty, G.

Y TRACKMEN WIN INDIVIDUAL AND TEAM HONORS SET NEW FOUR High School track is one of the most under-rated and poorly attended of all high school sports, This does not mean that the athletes entered in the various track and field events are not worthy of support or recogni- tion. Quite the contrary. These athletes work just as hard training and conditioning the body for the spring events as the other athletes do for football and basket- ball. just as in the other sports, all track and field men have a set routine which they must follow. In the spring it isn't so bad, but when practice begins in March with the water and ice fand this year the snowj still covering the track, many a sweat suit has been worn threadbare from washing. It is a thankless job for the men running, but a rewarding one, There is no pretty lass eager to wipe a sweaty brow after one of them has run the mile in under four minutes. The only reward they get is the satisfaction of having harnessed the energy of their bodies for a useful purpose, and having successfully achieved that purpose. Since track lacks the pomp and pageantry of football or basketball, potential fans shy away from it. This seems to have been the case at Holy Cross. But with the brand new track team winning honors for them- selves, support will undoubtedly be increased so that this year's squad will receive a greater following-one whose support they are worthy of.

With the successful culmination of the first year of cross country competition, the Knights can boast a total of nineteen medals won. Termed upstarts by the press, the Charging Knights surprised many with the fine running of Marty Ferko, john Lucas, Charlie Walsh, John Douglas. A season high of 169 points and seven medals was earned by the Knights in a third place finish at the St. John's University Invitational Meet. John Lucas finishing in seventh place, paced the Holy Cross runners. He covered the course in the time of 13:59. Marty Ferko finished three seconds later in tenth place. Charlie Walsh was the third Knight to finish. The Knights finished third again in the Brooklyn-Queens C.H.S.A.A. Meet earn- ing 124 points. john Lucas completed the 2.4 mile course in 13:52 for the gold medal. Charlie Walsh with a time of 14:23 was the next to cross the finish line for H.C. Marty Ferko, reaching the finish line in 14:26, earned himself a twelfth place finish. Dual meets have been the meat for the Holy Cross X-country runners.

With graduation of last year's quartet, Brother Wfalter will have to condition the distance medley or two mile relay for the Penn Relays. He will not find that hard for john Douglas, Marty Ferko, Richard Fennelly, John Lucas and Charlie Walsh have proved their capabilities during the winter. The Knights hope to repeat the crushing defeat handed Elmont H.S. last year as they begin to prepare for this initial meet. It is also hoped that the Knights will continue to dominate dual meets. The Knights will continue to be a strong distance threat to everyone as they have done in the past. A AJ a Frefbman lim Spring, Bill Rizzo rbowed plenty of Jpiriz and farm 01167 the pil.

V fall ' HOPES HIGHER FOR THE '60 BASEBALL CLUB A snowy spring brought with it the first hopefuls trying out in the H.C. gym for the 1960 baseball season. As the CROSS goes to press on the 22nd of March, a snug blanket of snow covers the ground, and it is still heavily falling. Not a very good day for sitting down to make predictions about the opening season. The coverage of last year's games was weak, photographically-photographers are generally reluctant to trudge along on hot spring afternoons to take pictures for a book that will appear more than a year away. And it seems that no one was very interested in keeping last year's score- book, since it registered only a single win. Coach Connors has high hopes for the future, with a strong con- tingent of returning veterans. Amoruso, Armenio, Cuccinello, Greco, Russo, Hartwell, Stoessel and Bosticco should more than ably replace last year's graduates, and a squad of junior and Sophomore hope- fuls is at work determined to better last year's record by a grand margin.

Since the school's physical training pro- gram does not include gym for juniors and Seniors, this activity provides much-needed activity for these individuals. With its intense program of training, the club offers an ex- cellent opportunity for correct physical development and over-all physical well-being. It is not, as moderator Brother Robert Pluta stresses, to determine the strongest boy in the school. Club members devote three afternoons a week to supervised activity in the school gym. Q-s Row I.'

George war on the winning Senior team. Another feature of the evening of the TITANIC STRUG- GLE was the half-time awarding of trophies to the members of the winning teams in the Intramural Basketball League. Trophies were awarded by the three men primarily responsible for the successful functioning of the league-Brother Geof- frey, Student Government Moderator, Pat Keneally, Student Government President, and Dom Romeo, League Chairman. More than three hundred Cross men availed themselves of the opportunity to participate in this activity. Yet another sign of the rapid growth of intramural sports at the Cross was the Intramural Bowling League. The three leagues: Freshman-Sophomore, junior and Senior were com- prised of well over two hundred students, who bowled weekly at nearby Victory Lanes. Almost every section in the school was represented by at least one team, some sec- tions by more than one. The league has grown to its present size under the guidance of Brother james Roth, who was ably assisted in its direction by three league secretaries: Al Bianculli, Seniorsg Andy Pio- trowicz, juniorsg and Steve Kinary, Freshman-Sophomore. The size in numbers and length of season has made the intramural program the largest extracurricular activity in the school. Its size is also a certain indication of its popularity Bowling league .rerretarier compare m1tz.rt1r.f.'

WHERE DID THE LAST FOUR YEARS GOT' Many a graduating senior asks himself that ques- tion. The Freshman year gave us memories of free flowing detentions, a tired but not tiring algebra teacher, and to some, a thrilling biology course. Science clubs had their beginning that year. The first musical hit the boards. The Student Council Constitution was drawn up for Holy Cross High. Mister Lipp began his able coaching of the Debat- K ing Club, and athletic letters were awarded for the first time. A year of bewilderment gradually sub- sided into one of definite work and definite play. The Sophomore year began faster than the ex- freshman had realized. The not yet fully matured football team began varsity ball, and fared quite well. Shop classes began at Holy Cross. Plays, The American Living Room, and Mountain Madnessf became pleasant memories, and math and pep clubs were formed for the first time. Keep quiet! and Hurry up! were found to be the most frequently employed idioms in history class. Slowly but surely students became scholars, and loyalty and pride blossomed forth from developing verility. Soon ring orders were taken. The Sophomore was ap- proaching the half-way mark. School work took on a new air of seriousness as the goal of graduation was realized to be only a few years in the future. Already memories were formed, memories of games, clubs, dances, and of schoolwork. The student be- comes a functioning part of the school. GEORGE D. ARNOLD Our Lady of Lourdes, Queens Village Int.

Arts Dept. The first year- book in school history started to take form. Thornton Wilder's unique play Our Town was presented with much success. A trophy was brought home to Holy Cross by our Debating Squad. December was the setting for the Junior Prom which was attended in force by many of our classmates. National Merit tests were administered. The reading program was initiated in order to help students with their College Board examinations. After much hard work, the musical review, The Boys from Brooklyn was put before the student body and as usual, an excellent production evolved. Due to the defeat of Flushing by our varsity, the Long Island Star journal trophy for North Shore championship was brought home for the first time. Response to the boat ride to Rye Beach packed Knights into the boat. Girls from Saint Agnes helped add to the enjoyment of the excursion. Soon the year was about to close. Our Junior year was nearing an end. The following September would be the beginning of the end, we were about to be- come Seniors. The first graduation at Holy Cross was attended by more than four thousand proud parents and rela- tives who sat in the warm afternoon sun to applaud the four hundred and sixty green clad graduates as they marched up to the green and gold dias to re- ceive their diplomas. Our school now was com- plete with alumni. In four short years, Holy Cross rose from insignificance to a position of prestige both in scholasticism and athletics. -was ROBERT FRANCIS BUNCE Our Lady of the Snows, Floral Park Int. Basketball 2.

Boy, are my legr mld . . . VINCENT L. COSTA SENIOR-FACULTY NIGHT SURPASSES ALL EXPECTATIONS The second annual Senior-Faculty Night provided three hundred seniors and faculty members with a memorable evening. Main feature of the night proved to be the rib-tickling movie, The Golden Age of Comedy. Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy led the way down a path filled with pie-throwings, car-demolitions, and frantic chases. Introduced by Doug Edgar and Mike Auleta's opposite versions of The Night Before Christmas, the sen- iors, themselves, took over next. Two humorous skits spoofing the Australian Tag Team match and a TV dance contest were presented. Lee Kane and Bill Roth provided one wrestling duet and Ray Di Scala and Roger Hayes supplied the opposition. The dance contest ended in an obvious tie among Bill Ricca, Gene Sweeney, and Ed Keane, and the respective debutantes, Joe Moss, Bill Poppe, and George Paront. Following the entertainment, everyone repaired to the cafeteria for a session of pizza, tobacco, and songs. Musical entertainment was provided by chairman, Carmen Flamino, and a nine piece senior band. Too bad we're only Seniors once.

Math can be try- ing, but it is livened up by occasional quests in search of a misplaced sponge, duck-like noises, and the inevitable disciplinary reactions. When times were low, student spirit was revived by bellowing cries of, Hey, you . . . do it now and occasionally a stern, Get out. Calculus, with its differentiation and integration, implicit and explicit functions and alike, took its toll of ulcers from among the ranks of our science students. In the line of study halls, Section A-4 gained repute by singing Christmas carols and songs during the Yuletide season. This was especially noteworthy because often the proctor's name vas substituted for that of jolly Kris Kringle. The never ending war against stealing others' work, commonly called copying homework, was carried out by a teacher of the charging Knights during the zero period. This crusade resulted in a drastic increase in original homework. College Night brought much important data into the light for many of our graduating seniors. This occasion, so thoughtfully arranged by the school's administration, touched subjects such as costs, scholastic programs, sports and extracurricular activities offered by the colleges represented. Graduation became more imminent as the termination of secondary school education seemed to come nearer and nearer with the passage of every day. Presently we would be wearing the cap and gown symbolic of graduation, soon we would receive our diplomas, soon we would say good-bye to our beloved Holy Cross.

Chemistry gives to us memories of a jovial teacher who made the subject so much easier to understand. Experiments in the laboratory, which are intended to bring the closer rela- tionship between the student and his work, often were inclined to get out of hand in cases of rapid combustion or detectable gas. If an answer was uncertain, the question. Is that right, Gilhooley would rebound off the walls. Our library was frequently used as a source of information. Reference books, periodicals and circulatory material were prudently taken ad- vantage of by the entire student body. The precisities of Mechanical Drawing always took their toll of obvious errors. With the intro- duction of auxiliary views, the hidden difficul- ties of the course began Q.

Frequent utterances of the phrase, There's a plate due today made nimble fingers previously sluggish fingers. Senior faculty night drew many laughs from the attending seniors. The beatnik version of the Night Before Christmas, read by Mike Auletta, caused many a chuckle and guffaw. A satire on wrestling, and music provided for by an all senior band also made the evening a success. The movie The Golden Age of Comedy began the evening, and refresh- ments in the Cafe topped it off. The Reluc- tant Romeo, a comedy which was written by our own Brother Geoffrey, drew record crowds. Unfaltering drama again appeared at Holy Cross as our boys teamed up with girls of neighboring schools to produce an excellent show. JOHN T.

After only two years of full scale varsity competition to their credit, our football team ended a fair season with a trouncing victory over Flushing. However, this was accomplished after a morale-boosting pep assembly motivated Cross rooters to turn out a good percentage of the seven-thousand present at the game. Our track squad, under the guiding eye of Brother Walter Foley, also had a good season. The most valuable runner was John Lucas who won many medals and awards for the alma mater. Religion classes are the center of academic life in the schoolg nevertheless, to a certain fourth period senior, serious Apologetics gave way to sleep. To that sort of sleeping student, goes the reward of a failure, to the worker, goes a passing grade. In English classes, students found themselves involved with discussion, modern art, book reports and Shakespeare, Ever so often a trying class drew the saying, I've had it, gen ts. When this happened, the fun in English came to an abrupt halt, and the course became pure work. Four years at the Cross formed our character. It gave us school spirit and a devotion to our God. Memories of untold wealth were formed. Knights, you're taking a great deal more than an inscribed paper when you leave this school, like- wise, you also leave something behind. A bond has been created . . . a bond of love and affection for Holy Cross. A LAST YEARS GRADUATES ENJOY THEIR FIRST FLING AS ALUMNI AT THE ALUMNI CHRISTMAS DANCE Last year's Seniors had the dubious honor of being pioneers throughout their four years at Holy Cross. Their distinction did not end with their graduationAthey then became pioneer Alumni. Through the efforts of Brother Geoffrey, Alumni Moderator, the first annual Alumni Dance was arranged to be held during the Christmas vacation. lt followed the -Iunior Prom and gave the 180 Alumni couples an opportunity to enjoy the prom decorations.

The men of '61 realized their social peak at the While Clar'ii!mfz.r junior Prom on December 28, 1959. They and their dates first entered a foyer with green draped walls brightened by scattered sunbursts of gold, In the gym, snowflakes showered down from the circling mirror-ball onto walls panelled in red and white. Certainly the nine foot blinking white star, the giant, lighted Christmas tree card, and the twelve foot modernistic star of simulated white gardenias were wonderful wall conversation pieces. Mal Galetta's ten piece professional or- chestra, banked by silver trees heightened the festive atmosphere. Throughout the evening refreshments were served by white jacketed waiters in the cafeteria. Here the soft glow of lamps, the flicker of table candles, the wine- colored spray from the three-tiered fountain assured the juniors that formal socializing was an experience worth remembering. The lounge outside the cafe was the perfect place for informal exchange of greetings and conversation. Leather chairs and couches in reds, browns, and greens were casually arranged to provide a momentary place-away from danc- ing. Art students' paintings on the wall gave a further richness and warmth to the lounge. Junior Moderator, Brother john Joseph Donnelly, C.S.Cg General Chairman, Roger Consola, and the many members of the various committees provided the young couples of the evening with snowflake memories through April and june to December again.

None of last year's clothes fit any more, and many of the awkward mannerisms of a year ago have been outgrown also. For most of the Sophomores, this was a year of feeling more at home at Holy Cross and indulging in the typical age-old Sophomore pastime of lording it over the poor downtrodden Freshmen, Classes seemed neither easier nor harder than they did the year before. Algebra gave way to Geometry, a dazing complex of lines, arcs and angles to many. Scholastically, not too much else seemed to change. Latin was still there-only even more so, and English went on and on. More opportunities for entrance into the social and extracurricular life of the school opened up and ac- ceptance by the upperclassmen began to be more and more common. The feeling of being least among the least hap- pily began to be a thing of the past.

FOUR HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE INVADE THE HALLS OF HOLY CROSS FRESHMAN CLASS REPRESENTATIVES Kevin Reilly, Robert Dormann and James Ryan were the only members of the Freshman Council the photographer was able to catch. So, here is their very exclusive picture. FRESHMEN When the doors swung open in September the sec- ond largest class to enter Holy Cross invaded the building, as four hundred seventy-five Freshmen swarmed into the corridors. The usual opening day mayhem reigned wherever they went-for at least the first two weeks of school. This is an easy building to get lost in, With its five floors and maze of corridors-and lost they did get. They came in assorted sizes and shapes, but most noticeable was the variation in height-the ex- tremes. Brother Josaphat roamed the corridors look- ing over the six-footers, and Brother Jogues kept a wary eye out for broad shoulders. All the other Brothers simply kept an eye out for Freshmen in general, and got out of the way when they heard them coming on their bookbag-swinging way. It took a while to learn which stairs had up traffic and which had down --but after a few miss-tries, and a few detentions, one managed to get the hang of things and school life slowly settled into the usual routine. Latin came hard, and algebra harder, but study halls and gym were pure joy. Who ever heard of a play period in the middle of the day-followed by lunchtime to boot? What a crazy school! Raw I: J.

So on the evening of October 16th, close to four hundred Frosh converged on the unsuspecting neighbor- hood for their first Stag. The evening got off to a. Wild start with cartoons in the auditorium. Then followed the initiation into the intri- cacies of Bunco. It was no time at all that the temperature of the cafeteria rose at least ten degrees-then ten more and at least another ten before the evening thundered to a close. Tension mounted as the games wore on and busy Sophomores hurried among the tables punching winners' tickets and distributing refreshments. What better way could an exciting evening end than on a feast of soda, potato chips and ice cream. The Class of '63 got off to a roaring and successful start. Here's hoping all of their class ventures are as enjoyable as their first. Row I: P. Klich, L. Molinaro, G. Rose, J. Petrizzi, J. Linehan. Raw II: F. Mardovich, A. Steck, A. Vuozzo, T.
