' Mr. Steve Pola- chek is building up HN boys in his phys- ical education classes, and the task of teach- ing the girls the es- sentials of sports and how to keep those Hg- ures trim rests with Miss Eileen O'Leary. 'Turning out Catholic speakers is accomplished in Mr. Ed Moderick's public speaking classes. First year algebra and French are the subjects of chief in- terest to Miss Jac- queline Prechtl.
