UR Alma Nlater, in the year of Our Lord, 1948, laid claim not only to 28 Sisters, but to eight lay teachers as well. That is, it used to lay claim to eight lay teachers. Then Danny pulled out, abandoning his sociol- ogy classes, and leaving a huge hole where the head coach once stood. The average Holy Namer might be surprised if we told him that of the remaining seven lay teach- ers, only two were men! Ed Mo- derick, who until September, '47, dragged his frame around Gar- field High, was now dragging that same frame in and out of several speech and sociology classes in Newburgh, and Steve Polachek, physical ed teacher for Uncle VVhiskers during the War, began tracking up our gym. The boys' gym that is. i I lVIrs. Collingwood, Miss O'Leary, Miss Prechtl, Mrs. Seitz. fNot yet on the staff when the picture was taken was Miss Ioan Murphy, lVIr. Mormile's successor in civics class.j K Doping out zz ncfw play? Coaches Ed Moderick, Steve Polachek, and Dan Mormile. F that same average Namer ever got into the girls' gym class, he'd probably Hnd that the person putting him out was another newcomer, Nliss Eileen O'Leary, whose Hrst year as HNS girls' phy- sical ed instructor was as suc- cessful a year as Miss Jacque- line Prechtl's. Miss Prechtl spent most of her time pound- ing math into Freshie and Soph heads. Lastly, there were our two old standbys, our veterans: Mrs. Robert Collingwood, of- fice secretary, and Mrs. Ruth Seitz, seventh grade teacher. Page

Page ww, .Q and Ulm, Wlathen, F Her We have asked much and received much. She has guided us every step of the way throughout our school years. We turned to Her when Latin translations seemed hard to handle, when examination Week came, when we Wanted that important date for the prom, and especially when We Wanted Her assistance in directing our lives to our eternal goal. And when Seniors were given the privilege of dedicating the V1-8 annual, they decided that The Namer should formally be given to Our Lady in appreciation for Her never-ending help. So, dear Blessed Mother, we humbly leave our Portfolio for Peter in your Hands. 12
