1933 -T HE IAM ITANI l.E -mu SENIOR HONOR STUDENTS LL hail to those who have come, labored, and conquered! As small children they were enrolled in the halls of learning. Even then appreciation of labor's reward was foremost in their young minds. As they progressed with the years, honest effort and wholesome work charac- terized them. Now they emerge clad in the light of victory as glorious conquerors of every phase in twelve years of steady schooling. These students have, in striving for personal honor, honored their parents, school, and associates. Bright as the noon-day sun the achievements of these honorables shall ever shine forth, even as they do now. We congratulate the honor students who have secured through diligence and persevering efforts, the coveted privilege of graduating Magna Cum Laude. This title has been merited by four long years of consistent excellence in scholastic pur- suits. Great patience is a prime essential for achieving such a goal. During the time many great obstacles have been surmounted, difficult tests passed only by honest labor and many crushing disappointments endured. True it has been a tedious grind, but the reward is wholly as great as the energy expended in securing it. It is scholars of such high caliber who are precious acquisitions to any institution of learn- ing. Much credit and praise is due to the brothers and sisters of Mary who have helped so greatly in aiding the students to realize their fondest hopes. Such products speak well for the teaching faculties of Holy Redeemer High School. Top Row: F. A. Kaul, J. Patten, M. Tucker, C. Piggott, M. A. Burke, XV. McKeown, J. Farren. Middle Row: L. Zak, M.

I 1933 -T HE CAMDANILE-1933 RING COMMITTEE S in former years, the class rings were selected in the Junior year. The boys' committee chose a ring from a wide variety, but the design was not accepted until Anthony Allen, the class artist, submitted a design which proved very popular with the class. The ring is of yellow gold. In a receding oval-shaped face is a shield with a cross at its peak and an Old English RU in the center. On a scroll beneath the shield, is the name Redeemer with an HU to signify Holy and an H to signify High, at its extremities. In order to bring out this design a backing of black onyx is supplied. A band of tooled gold encircles the face to complete it. On one shank is the numeral 19,' and on the other is the numeral 33. These are placed on small shields and the shields are Htted in with black enamel. On the inside of the band the initials of each senior are engraved. A simple, modernistic band of yellow gold was chosen by the Senior girls as their class ring. An eagle, symbolic of the ambition of the class, crowns the top of the ring. The base sup- ports a golden shield on which is a black strip bearing the word Redeemer,' in small gold letters. The letters Hn and S are placed at the lower left and right-hand corners. The small tiers composing the shank bear the numbers 19 and 33. Top Row: G, Bursick, M. Wain, NV. Kolbe, B. Sullivan, W-'. McKeown, M. O'Grady. Boftouz Row: F. Pyka, H. Kehoe, D. Tisdale, H.

Page Ninety-siX 1933 -'I' HE CAMDANILE-1933 CATHOLIC ACTION CLUB NDER the able guidance of Brother Maurice Miller the Catholic Action Committee began its second successful year as one of the organizations of the school. Early in October Raymond Glemet was elected president and Emmet Collins was chosen to act in the capacity of secretary. Membership was extended to the entire high school, each class being well represented. The Society owes its origin to the appeal that His Holiness, Pope Pius XI, has made so frequently during the last few years for the spread of Catholic Action among the younger members of thc Church. In Detroit this appeal has been answered by the forma- tion of the Detroit Students' Conference, which is composed of delegates from all the Catholic high schools. RAYMOND GLEMET P1'csizlw1f The committee was divided into three groups: Apostolic, Literary, and Publicity. Each had its special functions and duties and was supervised by a capable chairman. Included in the program were such meritorious works as: religious instruc- tions, propagation of the faith, and the publication of the Catholic Ozzfloole and the Slllflflllll Bulletin. Much praise is due to the Publicity and Literary groups for their unfailing maintenance of the bulletin boards. Every week an epitomized life of a Catholic author and a list of his works appeared thereon. Records of Holy Communion attendance at the Tuesday novena devo- tions and on first Fridays as well as accounts of open spiritual activities were preserved by the Apostolic group. . Several times during the course of the year rallies were conducted by the committee. This was a novel idea in the school program and was received very enthusiastically by the students. Top Row: F.
