The May crowning of Mary is an honored tradi- tion at Holy Names. More than ever in this yearls May Procession, that spirit of re: spect and love due a queen permeated our act of hom- age. The high point of the procession was the crown- ing of Our Lady by Marty Slattery, President of the S.S.C. One wreath of flow- ers was placed at her feetg another crowned her head. These ceremonies were rev- erently concluded by Bene- diction of the Most Blessed Sacrament given by Mon- signor Robert Cullen.
