..MemoAi L.. % JOHNSTOWN CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL Johnstown, Pennsylvania % 1936-1937 THE WAYS To every man there openeth A Way, and Ways and a Way, And the High Soul climbs the High way. And the Low Soul gropes the Low, And in between, on the misty flats. The rest drift to and fro. But to every man there openeth A High way and a Low, And every man decideth The Way his soul should go. —John Oxenham To Your Excellency Most Reverend Richard T. Guilfoyle, D.D., Beloved Bishop of The Diocese of Altoona, This Twelfth Volume of Memories Is Affectionately Dedicated May Your First Message—“To Labor and To Pray To Obtain Peace—Peace In The Hearts, Peace In The Homes, Peace With God, Peace With Fellow Men, And Peace With All Ranks and Races”— ReEcho In Our Hearts And In Our Lives HIS EXCELLENCY THE MOST REVEREND RICHARD T. GUILFOYLE, D. D. VIA FIDEI Because the way is steep and long, And through dark and lonely land God set upon my lips a song And put the Faith torch in my hand. —Adapted REVEREND THOMAS CAWLEY PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE “Thou believest that there is one God? Thou dost well; The devils also believe and tremble.” (James II, 19) The great Napoleon once said that if God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him. The Psalmist says: “The fool hath said in his heart: There is no God.” Yet, in all parts of the world today, false prophets are going about, not only denying that God exists, but brazenly warring against God. They are laboring with diabolical zeal to banish God from the hearts of men once and for all. Cunning deception, terrorism, false promises—these are their weapons. Some they deceive; others they intimidate. Should they come into power, they propose to visit death upon all who practice their belief in God by public religious worship. Young ladies and gentlemen of the Class of 1937, are you conscious of the gravity of this menace to our social order? Do you know that belief in God is the one dogma on which our very civilization has been founded? Are you aware of the fact that you are blessed with the true faith only because numberless martyrs, in ages past, suffered death in order that faith in God might live? Are you in turn willing to make sacrifices to preserve that faith for mankind in ages to come? It is not inconceivable that you may one day be asked to die for your faith. But if you should be required only to live for it, I beg of you, so live that others, because of you, may come to know God, to love God and to serve God, so that thus they may merit the unspeakable blessing of seeing God face to face for all eternity. FATHER CAWLEY: We pledge our loyalty to you, who have, by your example, pointed out to us, during our four years at Catholic High, that no task is too difficult, if we wish to attain the heights. As we have no costlier gift to offer than the prayer of loyal hearts, in gratitude, . . . “We would pray that every hope of thine that love and zeal command Will stay thee for the burden that is ready for thy hand; To teach—Christ’s best love was for Humanity— And that true Life is ever found in Christianity.” The Senior Class of 1937 Reverend James Fitzgibbon FRENCH AND DRAMATICS As French professor unequaled; as dramatic teacher superb; as a loyal, trusting, cheerful friend un- surpassed; therefore we here pledge to Father Fitzgibbon our gratitude and lasting appreciation. Reverend John O'Leary RELIGION We are grateful to Father O'Leary, our religion professor, for the stand- ards he has placed before us and the instructions he has given to help us maintain these standards.

DeLuca TO YOU WHO GUIDED US ALONG THE WAY As the Star was to the shepherd; as the compass is to the mariner; as the beacon light is to the pilot, so you have been to us. For four years, you have guided us nearer the Source of Truth; you have pointed out the dangers we will en- counter on the highways before us. In truth, you have given us a Catholic education. We have been privileged to receive it. It is ours. May we, in gratitude, love it, live it, and give it that others may have life more abundantly. VIA MORUM We stand where many crossroads lure our feet And many human interests seem all sweet. While worldliness and vanity invite Our eager hearts to yield our souls to strife. So let us prove responsive to this test And ever choose the way that is the best. —Adapted THE FOLLOWING SENIORS RECEIVE SPECIAL MENTION FOR THEIR VALUABLE BUSINESS ASSISTANCE Edward Bodenschatz Louise Michalowski Peter Bozich Mary McCann Elizabeth Kesslak Alma McMullen Dolores Kunkle Clare Reiser Philicia Lech Louis Reiser Robert Seitz MEMORIES STAFF James Boyle Dorothy Bridges Rita Burkhard Walter Clark John Dailey Mildred Gyurkovics John Himmer Mary Horn George Katter Dolores Kunkle Philicia Lech Rosella Lintner Frances Litzinger Eugene Loebrich Joseph Mabon Kenneth Marshall Robert Marshall Donald McCall Mary McCann Louise Michalowski William Palowitch Robert Pentrack Joseph Pohl Fred Rapp Natalie Sagerson John Scott Helen Seman Lucille Shopp Francis Tokar Mary Louise Varmecky VICTOR BAKO EDWARD BODENSCHATZ MADELEINE BOE5 JAMES BOYLE PETER BOZICH DOROTHY BRIDGES -----------. • VICTOR BAKO “Vic”—Loyal supporter—dependable—industrious—captain of his fate—no time for nonsense.

The journey, for a long time, was smooth sailing. Everything was welbordered. A bell announced the seven periods of the day's schedule. Practically every phase of the first year of our journey was a novel one for us. The whole course was new, and many faces strange. We felt very timid starting on this four-year trip. Unfortunately, some could not face the turbulent waters, and they disembarked. But as we glided on, we heard a voice from the mast chant, “Sail on, Sail on.” Upon investigation, we found the speaker to be “The Little Waif,” who had been so warmly applauded at a theatre on Osborne Street about one week before. We soon came to know the passengers and those in charge of the ship and our trip began to take on a spirit of one big family. At the conquering of each wave our ship left a “Golden Trail,” a memory we cannot easily forget, because it was the first of its type to be witnessed by Catholic Hi. The captain and his crew noticed one day that his passengers were in need of something that would revive their spirit and strengthen their purpose. Perhaps it was the first real case of sea-sickness, which so often attacks the strongest traveler. The captain steered the ship aside from the customary route and took aboard Father Frawley, an expert at setting things aright. It took him just three days to make even the sickest person aboard entertain a feeling of renewed strength and energy and readiness to “Sail on.” Sailing on soon became tiresome, and to break the monotony, we were entertained by some professional actors from New York with “Scenes from Shakespeare.” Just as we were about to land, a very flowery scent floated through our nostrils. We knew it to be “Apple Blossom Time.” It was also an announcement to the passengers that it was time to disembark and go ashore for three months' rest. 1934—1935 News was heralded from every newspaper in Johnstown that the passengers for “Catholic Hi would cruise forth on the second year of their journey. September second was the day appointed to resume the course where we had left off in June, 1934. As we went on deck, we were greeted most enthusiastically by the newly organized band, which was to accompany us on our voyage. To its strains our boys were to march along to many football victories. It would be hard to realize how pleasant the band made our journey on the “Catholic Hi.” Four months passed, and we were steering most earnestly toward our goal when the talented players among the passengers staged “The Way.” It certainly instilled the true spirit of Christmas and assured us that there is always a safer way. We had no sooner welcomed the New Year when we were given a singular treat. Father Wheeler, S. J., launched “Catholic Hi” to give a retreat. The whole ship seemed to glide along more smoothly after this spiritual lubri- cation. At times we were discouraged, and gathering clouds seemed to predict storms, but the tactful captain and his crew dispelled all the clouds, or at least showed us their silver lining. We had the exceptional joy of having Father Fitzgibbon and his Alumni players come on deck with “Daddy Long Legs.” This company was enjoyed by everybody. The joy of this exceptional character production had scarcely passed when we heard “The Bells of Capistrano” peeling their loud tones announcing an operetta. The bells ceased ringing, and the operetta passed, but we could not easily forget the beauty of this production. Before the “Catholic Hi docked for the summer months Father Fitzgibbon directed the Seniors in their class play, “The Fourflusher.” This concluded our activities for a very happy year spent aboard “Catholic Hi.” We left her with the hope of returning in September to resume our journey toward Graduation. 1935—1936 As we left home the first week in September, to board “Catholic Hi” for the third year, we were cheered on by the hearty calls of “Bon Voyage.” We resumed our journey along the route of education, which leads us toward our destination. Many of us were introduced for the first time to the Commercial work offered by “Catholic Hi;” others followed the Academic course. While we scanned the shore from the deck, we saw “Jonesy” boarding the ship, amid the applause of his fellow shipmates. The weather encountered on the first part of the voyage was fair, although at times, the current was swift. But who would want to sail on seas that offered no opportunity to contend with rough waters? After all, they are the gauge by which we measure the worth of our education. After the storm comes the Calm! We all opened our eyes with surprise when the song birds of “Catholic Hi” prepared a special Christmas program in the form of a “Cantata.” Our enjoyment of the program was sufficient proof that we do love the better things. In the midst of the journey, a lull settled. Yes! We were in for more “smooth sailing,” with Father Bonaventure taking control of the spiritual steering wheel. On deck, “Charley's Aunt” was quite popular. She traveled via the Alumni Players. While we passed through the next channel, we met the Western Pioneer, “Daniel Boone.” He succeeded in capturing the interest of all of the passengers. The time schedule was somewhat upset on March 17, by a flood, which endangered the lives of many and hindered the progress of the welbplanned trip. The weather predicted no “Junior Prom,” but the Captain weighed the existing condi' tions and finally decided in our favor. It was a festive occasion and, needless to say, quite a break in the day’s occupation.” Regardless of the interruption in our voyage, caused by high waters. Father Fitzgibbon planned a rollicking Senior play, in which “Polishing Papa” featured as a capitalist. Papa was polished, but he was a dead failure as a capitalist. The Seniors deserved much credit, and Father Fitzgibbon deserved a rousing cheer. After encouraging clear skies, the Captain moved forward with great determination. Then followed the same difficult tugging—exams and the like. The year's work was completed. Three cheers! Port Commencement, the wonder port of the lake regions, was in sight. The ship was at anchor. The floating mast waved a farewell, until we should meet to take the last lap of the journey. 1936—1937 “All ashore that’s going ashore,” boomed the captain of the “Catholic Hi,” that bright September morn, and immediately a mad scramble took place on deck. In less than five minutes, we found ourselves, after several months on land, again launched over the deep blue sea, pre' pared to weather every rack to reach our destination, the port of Graduation. Scarcely a month after we left port, the alumni of “Catholic Hi,” boarded the deck and delighted its passengers with “Nothing But the Truth.’” As Thanksgiving Day approached, the captain and his crew planned a lovely dance in the ship’s ballroom for the passengers. But pleasures passed for a time. Once again we settled down to benefit from the sea of knowledge round about us. Clear skies, calm waves, and “smooth sailing,” weren’t symbolic of the first part of the journey, but with the aid of the doctors of the ship, gradually we overcame the spell of seasickness, which is so common, at certain times, to our ship's passengers. Things progressed quite well, with few interruptions, until December 23, when the Captain decided that a short stay on a nearby island might be very advisable. The passengers readily agreed and planned to continue their journey on January 4th. In the meantime, the ship sponsored a lovely Yuletide dance in its ballroom and it enjoyed the usual success. When January 4th dawned all hurriedly crossed the pier and again resumed their journey. Days passed by and once again the alumni presented for the first time in the history of “Catholic Hi” a passion play, This Just Man.” It was sublime. The lighting, scenery, costumes, the whole play took us back through the centuries. It was food for thought in the Lenten season. Scarcely a month later we were delighted with the presence of Father Delaney, who arrived to shower spiritual benefits upon us. Words cannot describe our appreciation to the Captain. Given such a relaxation, we were content to settle down and prepare for a final effort to reach our destination. In the midst of routine, the second class passengers presented the occupants of first class cabins with a lovely “Prom.” They were all the perfect host should be. As the days grew brighter, we sighted birds flying about and knew that land was near. Last minute preparations were made and from the crew we sought all final information before the anchor would be dropped, into the deep blue waters. As the bright sun rose in the heavens on June 11, the deck was crowded with the passengers and the crew to bid good-by to their fellow mates. When the gang plank was lowered the graduates of “Catholic Hi” left her with a feeling of mingled sadness and joy. The goal was reached. With hearts over-flowing with gratitude, they turned, looked, on their Alma Mater and said: “The ship is anchored safe and sound. Its voyage closed and done; From fearful trip the victor ship, Comes in with objects won. While they stood silently watching the ship launch again over the deep blue sea, this time without them, their voices carried clearly to those on deck: “Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea, Our hearts, our hopes, are all with thee!” VIA CULTURAE Wh;it constitutes a school? Not great endowments nor noble halls, Nor yet old age and ivied walls— Not empty fame nor social name. No—our students—high principled men And women, who Know the right and do it too, Who are not afraid of life's hard way. But ready to meet their task each day— These constitute a school. —Adapted To Coach DeLuca— Who has helped us over the mouiv tains of hard practice to the plains of victory for the glory of J. C. H.

December 4, 1937 Men’s Athletic Association 25 Osborne Street Johnstown, Pennsylvania Gentlemen: In reply to your letter of December 2, we wish to inform you that we have prepared the following report which we hereby officially submit. Subject: 1936 Football Team of Johnstown Catholic High Material: 45 husl{y, earnest boys Schedule: Toughest nine-game schedule that Catholic High ever boofied— 6 games won, 3 lost. A[o apologies offered. Spirit: Fine spirit of cooperation between players, parents, backers, and friends. Management: Under the excellent direction of Coaches Albert DeLuca and Paul Abele. In connection with this we wish to tender you, the members of the Athletic Association, our sincere thanks for the backing which enabled us to produce such a fine record. We promise you a still better record for next season. Sincerely yours. Members of the 1936 Squad BASKETBALL The Catholic Hi basketball team, under the able tutelage of Coach DeLuca, emerged victorious in seventeen games of twenty-six. Among those who fell defeated by our team were: Johnstown Central, La Salle, Cathermans Business College, and St. Vincent Prep. Those games in which our boys were humbled were so close that “Lady Luck” often seemed to favor our opponents. •f TOURNAMENT AT WILLIAMSPORT After finishing the regular season Coach DeLuca received an invitation from Williamsport Knights of Columbus to compete in the Catholic State Tournament. The invitation was promptly accepted, and the atheletes left for Williamsport under the sponsorship of the local Knights of Columbus. The opposition was naturally tough, but our boys had clear sailing. They defeated Renovo and St. Mary's, of Scranton, by overwhelming scores of 40-26 and 44-18 respectively. On the second day our warriors polished off St. Joseph’s of Williamsport in an extra period by the count of 36-32. It was related by the tourney officials that this was the best game that was ever witnessed on their floor. Playing in the finals that same night our team lost to Altoona Catholic after scrapping gamely for two overtime periods. Besides the trophy for runner-up in the tournament, our school was honored by having Joe Heeney, Francis Platt, and Johnny Martin carrying off individual medals for outstanding performances.

After getting off to a bad start by losing the first three games they finished the first half a game behind the winners, the Junior team. Not to be outdone though, they gathered together their forces and won the second half championship. In the final cham- pionship game however, the Seniors fell victim to a sudden rally put on by the Juniors and lost by a score of 19-11. The Seniors can be rated as good sports and true scrappers. JUNIOR INTRA-MURAL BASKETBALL TEAM The Juniors of Room 202 are the champions of the Intra-Mural League. During the first half they had clear sailing and found little difficulty in winning the first half championship. Yet in the second half they encountered trouble from the sharp shooting Seniors and lost the second half to the upper classmen. As a result, a playoff was called and the Juniors prepared themselves to overcome their foes. In the final game the underclassmen carried off the laurels by subduing the enemy by the score of 19-11. Throughout the whole season the Juniors displayed skill and good sportsmanship. JUNIORS SENIORS CREDIT DUE COACH DeLUCA The credit for the success of the Intra-Mural League belongs to Coach DeLuca. Through' out the season “Al” although busy with varsity squads, took some time out and helped the league in its progress. Supervising and scheduling games fell as the tasks to our Coach. Taking all these as just another job to do, Coach DeLuca did well and made the whole season a thoroughly successful one. The following includes the members of the two teams: JUNIORS Claude Nitch Joseph Vyhonsky Robert Phillips Howard Sherman Leonard Voytek Christopher Flynn James Ruth Francis Mott SENIORS Kenneth Marshall George Katter Robert Seitz Robert Pentrack John Dailey Edward Podrasky Leo Hill Edward Bodenschatz THE MONOGRAM CLUB Three years ago, with the coming of the New Deal in athletics, came the organization of the Monogram Club under Paul Ahele. This distinguished fraternity consists of the Football and Basketball players, the Managers and the Cheerleaders who have rightfully earned their letters and who have been officially initiated into the society. Each year, a little while after the closing of the Football season, a whole week is set aside for Monogram initiations. This is a week of fun for the boys who are already in the club. For the newcomers, it is a week of persecution. The whole student body enjoys the free entertain- ment afforded by the old members at the expense of the greenies. During the course of the year an annual dance is held. It usually proves to be very suc- cessful. With the closing of school comes the Monogram picnic. This is another event of which fun is the main object and is held for the Monogram members exclusively. Officers of the club are elected annually and chosen from the Senior Class. Those who hold offices now are as follows: President—John Scott Secretary—George Katter Vice President—Joseph Heeney Treasurer—Donald McCall LIST OF ACTIVE MONOGRAM MEMBERS Seniors—James Boyle, John Dailey, Joseph Heeney, John Himmer, George Katter, Anthony Kesslak, Kenneth Marshall, Robert Marshall, Donald McCall, Robert Pentrack, Edmund Podrasky, and John Scott. Juniors—Charles Boyle, Francis Platt, Walter Porowski, James Ruth, John Spack, John Weisheier. HOME STRETCH “Then welcome each rebuff That makes the smooth way rough And bid us neither sit nor stand But go!” SENIOR LIBRARIANS BOOKS — These are the beacon lights that show us a way to pilot over dangerous heights and moor safely into port. They are the masters who teach us without force, without angry reproaches, and without cost. If we flee to them in distress, they graciously receive us; if we question them, they conceal nothing; if we misjudge them, they never grumble; if we are stupid, they cannot laugh at us. The library, therefore, contains jewels more precious than wealth can buy, and it is our fortune to be inheritors of this wealth of the great minds of the centuries. Therefore, any outstanding man in the field of truth, happiness, art, or even faith must of necessity be a lover of books and a frequent visitor to this storehouse of knowledge. This year our storehouse was enriched with an additional two hundred and forty-three books. Forty-eight of these were fiction donations which resulted from the enthusiasm displayed during National Book Week; eighty were our choice selection purchased with Library funds; the remaining one hundred and fifteen were the donations of generous friends of Catholic High. With these, over one hundred and fifty pamphlets on current topics were purchased and widely circulated among the students. Our greatest joy comes not so much from this generous en- richment of new volumes, but from the large number of students who came daily to be benefited by it. It was with a feeling of gratitude that the librarians served the long line-up of students each day. The seniors who served faithfully in the capacity of helper librarians are pictured above. The juniors who stand ready to take the seniors’ place are: Margaret Holder, Patricia Marshall, Patricia McCann, Frances Shoenwalder, Jean Stager, Gertrude Toranto, Barbara Ward, Elva Weidwald, Dorothy Weimer, Colleen Weisheier, Mary Louise Wolfhcpe and Dorothy Oswald. The sophomores who were initiated into library work this year are: Mildred Burns, Anna Caeti, Marion Culliton, Margaret Curley, Marjorie Horn, Mary King, Helen Kenjesky, Louise Ernst, Joan Marshall, Ruth Meyers, and Helen Marsh. To the following friends of Catholic High we are grateful for the interest they have manifested in our library: Mr. Michael J. Boyle, Mr. William Cahill, Reverend E. B. Daley, Mrs. Catherine Huet, Mr. Patrick McAneny, Mrs. P. J. Scott, Miss Elizabeth Short, Mr. John Widman, Mr. Joseph Wolfe and Dr. Leo Hornick. THE SODALITY OF OUR LADY “Thou art all fair, my beloved And the stain of original sin was never in thee.'' Truly, it is comforting and inspiring to the girls of our Sodality to pay tribute to one whom Our Blessed Lord loved so well that He never allowed any blemish to mar her soul. To be her sodalist is a privilege. It is a great assurance of her protection, not only during our school days, but ever after, for our Lady will never forsake her clients. The generosity she displays towards us naturally stirs the hearts of her children to return, in some measure, this generous love and care. We manifest our love for her by meeting each month in her honor, weekly reception of Holy Communion, having Masses read each month, and by praying each day that the virtues of our Patroness may be mirrored in our lives. Not only the spiritual activities but also the social activities have reflected great credit on this organization. At our first meeting, held in October, we were overjoyed to find that we were two hundred and thirty'two strong. Of this group, Mary McCann was our choice for President, Mary Horn for Vice President, and Madeline Boes for Secretary. The Hallowe’en Party was our first social activity, and needless to say all enjoyed it. This party over, we laid plans for our Annual Bazaar, the biggest enterprise sponsored by the Sodalists. On January 14 we reigned at Catholic High. With the cooperation and willing spirit of each Sodalist it went “over the top” as a social and financial success. The entire student body entered into the fun and enjoyment. On April 1st, we called the last meeting of the year and during this time made plans for the May crowning. The date was set for May 7- To Clare Reiser fell the coveted honor of being May Queen. We close this year’s records with a feeling of assurance that all the activities, both spiritual and social, were attended with success that has surpassed everything in the history of the Sodality. LITTLE FLOWER OF JESUS MISSION SOCIETY Interest in the Missions tends to promote a better understanding and appreciation of our Catholic religion. Therefore, mission activities have a definite purpose in high school because they help the students to realize the missionary aims of the Church. In the early part of the year mission officers and representatives were selected. Then an enrollment of the entire student body into the mission society. Prayers for the missions were particularly emphasized at the regular meetings. A Spiritual Bouquet was collected each month and sent to “The Sign” magazine. Union City, New Jersey. From there it was forwarded to the missionary priests and sisters in China. Material aid was obtained for the missions by means of candy sales, raffles, and mite box donations. A generous sum of several hundred dollars was realized after the close of the Lenten season. Some of the foreign and home missions which received material aid were: Sisters of St. Joseph in China, Sisters of Mercy at Leprosaruim, South America, Franciscan Sisters in Puerto Rica, Sisters of Charity at the Foundling Home, Pittsburgh, Pa., Franciscan Sisters at the Guar- dian Angel Home, Joliet, Illinois, Father Flanagin’s Boys, Nebraska, Mexican Priests and Sister’s Aid, Texas, St. Paul’s Indian Schools in Montana, Missionary Fathers at St. Columban, Nebraska, and the Passionist Fathers, Union City, New Jersey. ANNUAL RETREAT While the joy of Eastertide was still prevailing, we were given an added joy, our annual retreat. For several reasons, we feel that it was the most beautiful retreat that we have had during our four years at Catholic High. Hence we give it a special place in our “Memories.” After our auditorium was converted into the loveliest spot in Johnstown, the Lord dwelt amongst us. We were the first, in the history of Catholic High School, to enjoy the pri- vilege of having the Blessed Sacrament within our very walls during the three days of the retreat —April 14, 15, 16. Father Delaney, the Director of the Holy Name Society in the Diocese of Pittsburgh, conducted the exercises. We began the day with two Masses. During the course of the morning, we had two conferences; in the afternoon, we had two conferences followed by Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Each morning the entire student body received Holy Communion. It was truly a Eucharistic retreat, one which will exert an influence on our entire lives. It would seem, as Father Delaney expressed it, as though Christ and His Mother were looking down upon this very spot, Johnstown Catholic High School, their arms laden with graces and blessings ready to let them fall, as the dew descending, filtering through all, permeating the atmosphere. To Father Cawley, who makes our Annual Retreat possible, we are heartily grateful. Although Catholic education affords us a daily opportunity to come in close proximity with Christian principles, yet the annual retreat gives us an added opportunity to gather spiritual strength which will make us better citizens of the state and staunch children of the Catholic Church. The two must go hand in hand, as according to President Roosevelt, “I take it to be axiomatic that religion is essential to complete education.” MAY DAY O Mary! we crown Thee with blossoms today Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May. The Socialists chose May 7 as the day to shower special love and honor on their Heavenly Mother. The day proved to be an ideal one for a May festivity. The auditorium presented a picture that most assuredly gave joy to the Immaculate Mother of God. The officers, promoters and chosen sodalists dressed in beautiful pastel shades accompanied the May Queen, Clare Reiser; Before the Queen and her attendants went on the stage, she was crowned Queen of the May. She approached Our Lady’s altar on the stage and crowned the Queen of Heaven. The Litany of the Blessed Mother was chanted by the Sodalists, while the attendants of the May Queen presented Our Lady with beautiful flowers. Father Cawley addressed the Sodalists, their parents, and their friends. He congratulated the May Queen, all those who took part, and particularly the prefect of the Sodality, who under the direction of those in charge were responsible for this scene of devotion. Father spoke of the beauty of this devotion which is symbolic of the crowing in Heaven of Mary, Queen of Angels and Saints. He assured us that devotion to Mary was encouraged from the Cross, when Our Lord made us the adopted children of His own Mother. Our Lord said to His Mother, “Woman, behold thy Son and to Saint John, “Behold thy Mother. Notice, He did not say, “Mother, behold thy Son,” but “Woman”—making her our Mother, our adopted Mother, and thus starting the devotion to Mary. Father, also spoke of the comparatively new devotion to Mary, called Mary's Day. It has received the support of the official organizations of the Church. It is an endeavor to make youth from the first grade, through high school and college “Mary-conscious. Those who join are expected to hear Mass and receive Holy Communion every Saturday. Its object is to make our youth really love the Blessed Mother, and to use this special devotion to help counteract the movements so rampart against Christian principles. At the conclusion of Father's address, the sodalists sang Mother Dearest, Mother Fairest” while the May Queen and her attendants marched from the stage. Every phase of the event was devotional and inspirational. Those of us who are leaving the guiding influence of Catholic High beg Our Lady to “Fold her fair mantle still closer around us Sinless and beautiful Star of the Sea. ORCHESTRA “Music is a bit of Heaven That has wandered from its home.” Under the able direction of those in charge of the Music Department, the orchestra of Catholic High rose to new heights. By the end of the year, we were playing selections from grand opera. Besides affording the students with a very important cultural training in the up' lifting influences of life, it proved itself practical by providing Entre Acte music for the plays and other scholastic public performances. At the beginning of the year, the Orchestra and Band members voted to be considered as one organization, The Music Club. Officers elected were: Robert Marshall, President; Mary McCann, Secretary; William Palowitch, Student Director; and Clare Reiser, Treasurer. During the course of the year the social activities were limited to a skating party and a Lenten raffle. At the Miniature Commencement on May 17, the Senior Orchestra and Band members received their medals. The annual banquet was held on Thursday, May 20, in the Auditorium. Music was afforded by the “Hungry Seven.” MEMBERS Mary Boes Rita Burkhard Samuel Cernuto James Feehley Betty Frick Edward dock Louise Gross Marie Heeney Anna Heptner Victor Heptner Mary Horn Coletta Huet Frances Litzinger Robert Marshall Margaret Mary Marshall Patricia Marshall William Mayer Mary McCann Jack Miscoe Francis Mott Charles Nesbitt Mary Nesbitt Mary Rita Palowitch William Palowitch Claire Reiser Carolyn Schramko Robert Seitz Francis Tokar Mary Louise Varmecky Rita Weakland THE BAND The Band of Catholic High! With that name comes the connotation of drums and bugles and the stamp of feet. When the band started practice last September 8, high achievements were in view for the year. Under the mastery of Mr. George Frick, drill master, Mr. George Var mecky, and the music department, the band and its drunvmajor, Alfred Bremer, were ready to march for our first football game. Thereafter, many nights and afternoons were spent in drilling and perfecting maneuvers, until marching was well in hand. During the football season, the band stirred the gridders to the proper fighting spirit and gave an added zest to the crowd. At the end of football season, practices were shortened, and uniforms folded away. Thereafter the band played only at the more important basketball games. On May 12, Mr. Frick started spring drill practice. An encouraging number of Freshies were initiated to the routine of drilling. May the band be perpetuated. Each year, may the Crimson and Gold strengthen its marching forces, until its strains of martial music may be surpassed by none other in the land.

It was presented Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. May 18 and 19, under the very competent direction of Father Fitzgibbon. THE CAST Mrs. Samuel Phelps Mr. Samuel Phelps Lois Phelps......

Hester the haughty and Minnie the Maid! Yes, Minnie was a good cook. Yes, she iiked to cook eggs. Why? Because she didn't know how to cook anything else. Russell Rogers, the young civil engineer, liked to build bridges, but sad to say, there were no rivers in Podunk Center. However, there was a paper bag manufacturing company. This venerable concern, governed by Mortimer Weldon, the villain, went bankrupt and left Villain Weldon holding the big brown paper bag (empty, of course). Podunk Center also had a baseball team whose members were so kind that they wouldn’t hit anything, not even the ball. Lita Weldon liked Lois Phelps. Mr. and Mrs. Phelps liked Lita Weldon. Dizzy Wynne liked both Lita and Lois. Mr. and Mrs. Phelps didn't like Dizzy. Neither did Hester Trader. Mortimer Weldon didn't like anyone except himself, and nobody else liked him. The question, dear readers is—what happened? In the big game Dizzy struck out. Then Russel stepped up to bat and saved the day, knocked in four runs, married Lois and lived happily ever after. P.S.—Dizzy married Hester. ART CLASS The students have reaped a fine harvest of results and praiseworthy accomplishments in the advanced art classes under the skilful direction of Mrs. Rose. For the first time in the history of the school our students had the splendid opportunity to develop their taste and artistic ability under skilled guidance. The classes have progressed rapidly since the opening of the school term. The results are amazing in taste and color scheme. The classes consist of Commercial Art, Fine Arts, and Implied Designing. Subdivided it consists of lettering, poster design, decorating of objects, useful novelty boxes, hot plates, etc., ink and pencil sketching, charcoal, pastel landscape and still life, water and oil painting. April 5, the long-awaited day arrived for the Art Exhibit. The art class was brimming over with every type of dainty craft, displaying a high degree of interest and skill. “Ah’s” echoed and re-echoed as admirers feasted their eyes on the finished work. After much pondering, a Committee of Staff Members finally reached a decision. Two posters were selected as best of each art division. The findings were submitted to the office for publication. Here are the results. Charcoal—First: George Ludwig 2nd: Mary Boes Oils—1st: Mary Jane Foster 2nd: Marjorie Horn Babies—1st: Mary Zahorchak 2nd: Leona Snyder Pastel Still Life—1st: Mary Jane Foster 2nd: Barbara Ward Figures—1st: Ralph Hoy 2nd: Andrew Roskey Poster Design—1st: Frank Martin 2nd: Andrew Maslo Landscape—1st: Barbara Ward 2nd: Kathleen Brett THE ACTIVITIES PARTY An Activities Party, on May 20, gave two hours of thorough enjoyment to one hundred and four students, who had given much of their time and talent in the various fields of extra- curricular activities. The tables, arranged in the auditorium in the form of a J, were decorated in green and white. A novel idea was worked out with the place cards. The Band and Orchestra members found names of great musicians on their cards; the student librarians had names of authors on their cards; the Sodalists had the various titles of Our Lady at their place; and the Missionary workers had the names of missionary Saints. The favors served as a decoration and added to the entertainment. After the luncheon was served, the numbers for the door prizes were drawn. Thomas Abele, was the lucky boy, and Mary Jane Hoover was the winner of the girl’s prize. Mary Louise Wolfhope was fortunate enough to win the cake in the cake walk. The School Jazz Band, “The Hungry Seven,” furnished music during the luncheon. They also provided music for dancing after the luncheon. PRIEST PATRONS 1 Rt. Rp.v. Msc.r. John N. Codori, V.G., LL.D.
