2 SENTINEL October 29 , 1965 Hus He Come To Stay? He cannot be seen. He is an intangible thing. He doesn't speak to show his pres- ence. He doesn't wear clothes or have long hair. But his slightest touch can be felt. Vghen he's there, there is no mis- take about it. Who is he? you ask. He was there when the money came in for the SENTINEL drive. The percente ages began to rise. The paper would be published; there would be e no ugh sub- scriptions. The junior class r e a c he d first place, an upset to the s uppo s ed status quo. The sophs rallied their forces to get more subscriptions. The frosh attained the highest percentage that f r o s h ever have in the drive, even though they placed fourth. Who is he? you ask. Roll the onion across the floor, bark- ed someone. Get on your knees, shout- ed another. Yet, during the frosh ini- tiation, no one received rough treatment . There'was only fun. He e njoye d it . After 3:00, the torture, as the freshmen thought, endedwith friendship instead of violence. Who is he? you ask. The s t u de nt 5 are free at exchange They walk at their own 5 p e e d , without fear of an unjust m o nito r . They have gained this privilege as adults. Who is he? you ask. Boom! 1ike - the sound of a cannon echoing across the playing field. Drums! The crowd stands, a man is tackled . Everyone cheers! Aplayer is hurt. The stands are silent. He is there. Who is he? you ask. Boom! Win or lose? It doesn't mat- ter. As long as the drums in people beat, or their hands get sweaty with anxiety, he remains. Who is he? you ask. He is SPIRIT! SPIRIT is here! SCHOLARSHIPS Charlotte Bickes received a $1000 scholarship to Mercy School of Nursing, as the result of an exam. Noreen Ann Calus also received a scholarship to Mercy College. All That's Needed Is 0 Push f U! n -s-u-:r-I:n-n WANTED: More Man Power A man can do great things if he puts his mind to them. He has the strength to do things that women are not capable of doing. But there is vital need for evidence of more man power at Redeemer. Our varsity men spend endless hours training. The response of the boys to the re- quest for servers and lectors was satisfying. The male members of the Student Coun- cil and the Class Officers devote much time and effort toward strengthening the school and class spirit. These men have made themselves known. But where are the others? Redeemer is not a girls' school. It should be supported by boys as well as girls. The new system of mixed homerooms can give us the long-awaited opportunities for working together. If the girls always dominate, and the boys let them do the work, we may be defeating the purpose of the system. The men at Redeemer have great potential. It's about time they stood up and let themselves be counted as those who will make 1965-66 a great year for Redeemer. Graduates of '65 Step Into Demanding Roles As Adults Five months have p a s s e d since Re- Four Redeemerites are attending busi- deemer's class of '65 graduated. What are they doing now? Many are attending college, and an equal number are work- ing, or training in business schools. Sue Caya r e c e i v e d a Michigan State Competitive Scholarship, so the Redeem- er scholarship went to Marilyn Murray who was next in line. This brought the number of girls attending Marygrove up to eight. Michigan State Competitive Scholar - ships e nable d many students to attend other universities also. Thirteen fOrmer Redeemer students now walk' the halls of the University of Detroitwhile Michigan c l a i m 5 two. As in football, Michigan State leads Michigan with five Redeemer- ites, and Mike Young playing on Mich- igan State's freshman team. Bob Donnelly and Joe Suchyta are also involved in college athletics, both at the Universityof Dayton.

SENTINEL V01 XI Holy Redeemer High School, Detroit 9, Michigan, October 29, 1965 N0. 1 Pope Paul VI Names Alumnus Bishop l 3 1' : : I I I I a l ! I 5 5 i 3 : I 5 f a Council, Faculty Meet The Student Council and the Faculty will meet in a joint session on November 4 . This meeting, the first of its kind in the historyof the school, has been arranged for the purpose of discussing some prob- lems which require both adult experience and teen-age imagination. In preparation for this meeting, the of- ficers of the various school organizations have been given a chance to evaluate the new National Honor Society plans. The re vi 5 ed plans will be discussed at the faculty-student meeting. Referring to the requirements for Na- tional Honor Society me mbership, Mother said, We wish to maintain scholastic standards, as well as the standards of Christian service, since we know that the purpose of know ledge is the service of our fellow men. Another item that will be discussed is the requestof the Junior Class to receive their rings at the end of the Junior year. Meetings of this type may be held at least three times during the school year, depending on the need for them. Bishop-elect Joseph M. Breitenbeck Four Seniors Attend Boysi Day By Jerry Connelly '66 SeniorsJerry Connelly, James Munoz, Michael Manriquez, and William Ross, represented Holy Redeemer at the an- nual Boys' Day, on October 13. The convention which took place at the Veteran's Memorial Building was a pre- liminary step, leading to the honorary taking over of the city government by the elected boy officials. The purposeof the convention is to se- lect boys for the offices of mayor, city treasurer, cityclerk, and the nine coun- cilmenwhowillrule for a day on October 20, as honorary officials. NOminations for the office were made by four committees, consisting of three members each. The nominees were al- lowed a limited time for speeches which were to present a civic platform. Michael Manriquez was nominated for the Council, and although he was not e- lected, he was appointed Election Com- missioner. His speech was concerned primarily with the control of w ate r pollution and the investigation of industry, which may be the major cause of the problem. On October 20, the boys who partici- pated in the convention were present at a $25. 00 plate dinner, at the Statler - Hilton Hotel. This program was originated in 1952 by a group of civic-minded citizens who were interested in acquainting the youth of Detroit with the responsibilities of a large city government, and to impress upon them the duties of a leader. Michael Manriquez tcenterl takes a last look at his speech for the Boys' Day Con- vention, while James Munoz trightl and JerryConnelly encourage him. William Ross was the fourth representative. Will Remain As Pastor At Assumption Grotto The Right Reverend Joseph Matthew Breitenbeck, aRedeemer alumnus of the Class of 1932, was namedauxiliarybishop of the Archdiocese of Detroit. He will continue as pastor of Assumption Grotto Parish, where he has been since 1959. Bishop Breitenbeck was ordained to the priesthood in 1942 at Blessed Sacrament Cathedral, by the late Edward Cardinal Mooney. He has been secretary, both to the Cardinal, and to Bishop Dearden. When Pope Paul visited Detroit as a Monsignor, in 1951, he stayed with Car- dinal Mooney. Monsignor Breitenbeck had the privilege of taking the future pope on a tour of the City of Detroit. Bishop Dearden said the appointment of Bishop Breitenbeckwas welcome news for the entire archdiocese. The dignity of being numbered among the successors to the Apostles, that to which Pope Paul VI has now nominated me, is a most illustrious one, the new bishop said. I cannot help but be impressed, how- ever with the thought of the fearful re- sponsibilities, which the bearer of that dignity must assume. Upperdussmen Gain Five Points Each The classes of '66 and '67 were vic- torious in their attempts to capture the first M y r o n F r i t t 5 Memorial trophy points, each winning five points. The Seniors were victorious in the car parade, while the Juniors came out on top in the SENTINEL Drive. The S e nior 5 led the Dads' Club Car Parade with twenty entries. Junior and Frosh classes entered eleven cars each and Sophomorestrailed with five entries. The grand prize of $25. 00 was awarded to Mary Benedict '68 while Marianne Dombrowskitook home second place and $20. 00. Pictures willbe in the next issue of the SENTINEL. Familiar words of the SENTINEL Sub- scription Drive Think BIG, think SENTINEL , spurred the Junior clas 5 on to take first place and a class per- centage of 83. 2. Seniors followedwith79.8, Sophomores were third with 73. 4 and the Frosh were fourthwith 61. 2. The SENTINEL school percentage was 74. 9.

Mr. McCartney left Seitz Jr. High in Riverview for Holy Redeemer. A Uni- versity of Toledo grad, the Coach be- lieves that Attitude is everything . By Ramona Misiunas '66 While five new teachers were spending some time finding their way around Re- deemer's maze, five of last year's fac- ulty were doing the same thing in other schools or environments. Sister Eucharia, the champion of mis- sionaries, who would sellasong for a do- nation to a worthy cause, has retired to an active life at St. Mary Convent in Mon- roe. She holds a record of thirteen years at Redeemer which is excelled o n 1y by Sister Ignatius, who has spent seventeen years at Redeemer during two stayss Sister Ignatius has retired to her fa- vorite parish and convent- -H01y Redeem- er. She doesn't come over to school any more butfinds plenty to keep her busy in the convent. She already has her order in for a copy of the first issue of the SENTINEL. Sister Octavia, former junior teacher and class advisor, business teacher, and cheerleader most excellent tremember Port Sanilac last year, girlsl has taken her talents to Sacred Heart School, Dearborn. Sister Josanne returned from her trip to Africa with many new impressions of people and places. Now she is sharing her experiences with the students of St . Patrick's, Wyandotte. Sister Mary Columba, who traces her Vermont ancestry back to Sam Wilson, the or iginal Uncle Sam , has moved right out of the city to St. John, Jackson , where she teaches Religion and English. Sister Jame 5 Agnes showed the Re- deemer spirit when she came from Port Huron Catholic during the Senior Girls' Retreat, to see her old friends. Students Participate in leadership Course Forty-two Redeemerites are partici- pating in the Gabriel Richard Leadership Training Course. The nine-week course has luredseniors, juniors, sophomores , and freshmen. Mother Ann Mary and Father Monroe who were instrumental in bringing the course to Redeemer opened it to all on a volunteer basis. A two-hour session eachMonday in the Blue Room after school provides learning experiences in the skills essential for leadership. In the first session, the emphasis was on memory. A leader must remember names, said Mr. John Gallagher, the instructor for the first session. As an aid to memory, he taught the secretof word association. For example, Sue Omilian will sue for a million if you forget her name. Mr. Don Esper, in another session, gave the students practice in speaking extemporaneously before a group. In the remaining weeks, creativity, self-confidence, and clear-headed logi- cal thinking will be emphasized. Dennis Glasgow and Bill Sirhan share a joke at the leadership class. The Institute was founded in 1949 for the purpose of training potentialleaders. Using Father Richard as an example of community leadership, the Institute de- sires to arouse among teens an aware- ness of world-wide p r o bl e m s , and to guide potential leaders into areas where they can best help in the extension of the Kingdom of God on earth.
