u o 0 o189l'The 0 0 1 THIS AND THAT Congratulations are due the Juniors for the patriotic party and silhouette skits given on the evening before Ash Wednesday for the high school. No detail was omitted. The reluctance to leave on the part of the guests testified how much the party was enjoyed. The faculty and students extend sympathy and prayers to the bereaved ones of the following deceased: Mr. John Smolak, father of the Smolak children Mr. Albert Volpe, father of Lydia Volpe Mr. J. William McCool, grandfather of Regina McCool The majority of the students of both schools responded to Father's call and attended daily Mass and received Holy Oom- munion during the Lenten season. Some even made the sacrifice of coming on Saturday morning. Those who thus showed their faith in and their love for the Mass ind the Holy Eucharist are assured of God's special blessing. Sister Thomasine and faculty wish to express their sincere appreciation for the splendid cooperation given so unanimously and whole-heartedly by the grade school children in any project that was proposed for the good of the students and the better- ment of the school. The seniors wish to state that despite the hard pull they had to reach graduation, they would be willing to come back and start all over again, rather than leave I.C.H.S. The Diologue Mass introduced at the nine o'clock Mass is pro- gressing nicely and seems to be accomplishing its purpose-- a personal love for the Holy Mass. Scattered bits of senior conversation reveal inquiries con- cerning the annual farewell breakfast given by Father Bernier in honor of the graduates. They seem to have hopes of being thus honored this year.

...l89l-The Eagle-l9h2.... BASKETBALL E The St. Marys Cagers, coached by George Benedetto, played one of the toughest schedules ever had by St. Marys team, and were victorious in seven of their sixteen games. A Few Season Thrillers In their game with Coshocton, minus the service of two regulars in the last quarter, the Saints came through with a 35-BL victory, after having been defeated on the Coshocton court 35-21. Being drubbed by Tuscarawas on their court 70-39, the Saints turned the tables on the home court and trounced the overconfident Tuscarawas team 28-24. After losing the heartbreaker to Steubenville Central Catholic 37-Bu on the home court, the Saints traveled to Steubenville and gained revenge for the setback by beating them 28-27. Although the team will lose six men by graduation, they have plenty of reserve material to fill in the vacancies. Any success the team may have enjoyed during the season is due to the untiring work and interest of Father Bernier, athletic director, and George Benedetto, coach. TOURNAMENT St. Marys participated in the fourteenth Diocesan Tourna- ment held in Columbus March 13 and lb. They were defeated in the first contest by the pre-tournament favorites, Portsmouth Central Catholic High School, on Friday at three o'clock. Trailing to the end of the first half 17-10, the Saints came back strong in the third quarter and led at the short intermission 25-19. However, the Saints could not keep up the pace and fell behind to lose 37-29. Bonamico, outstanding player of the game, won a forward position on the all-tournament team. The team was awarded the Sportsmanship Trophy. A similiar honor was won by the team in 1939. - John Recchiuti
