HENRY WELCH GUILD Many people work together to make Loyola High an outstanding school, but certainly none are more loyal than our parents' organizations. Without their untailing support Loyola could hardly maintain its high academic and athletic standards. The school is only an extension of the home, and the keen interest ot the parents in every phase ot Cub activity are things we are proud ot. The Henry Welch Guild otters the mothers ot Loyola's boys a chance to meet each other and do many things toward improving the school. The Board Otticers this year include: Mrs. L. Murrin lPresidentl Mrs. Francis llst Vice-Pres.l, Mrs. W. Lane l2nd Vice-Pres.l, Mrs. J. Klausner lRec. Secretaryj, Mrs. T. Holmes lCorr. Secretaryl, Mrs. D. Newell lTreas.l, Mrs. F, Longo lAsst.

Standing beside the Henry Welch Guild is a group of men who have become in ten short years an indispensable part of Loyola: the Dads Club. Apart from their normal interest in the school where their sons are being formed into young men, this organ- ization has made the improvement ot Loyola an important part ot their work.

God and daily work are seldom, if ever, ioined. Religion, it is commonly held, is just for Sundays. Such art attitude ignores the greatest and most beautiful part of man's life: his finding of God's love in everything which he has, does and experiences, and his attaining of eternal happiness after death. Since religion is a habit regulating man's every action and not simply an outlet for pent-up emotions, religious training and practice must be the center of the complete plan for educating youth. Throughout Loyola's school year, the active spiritual program carried on by students and faculty make for a full religious life. The underclassmen begin the school year with a three- day retreat, and the Seniors end their high school days in their closed retreat at Manresa, seeking Gods will in their choice of college or career We open our first day of school with the Mass of the Holy Ghost to ask guidance in our studies and daily activities. Class begins with a prayer. The daily rosary is recited publicly in October and May, The Father and Son Communion Mass and breakfast give the natural bond between dad and son a firmer, more spiritual, basis. A campus visitor seldom tinds the Chapel empty as students frequently drop in to talk it over, or to hear Holy Mass. Finally, the Sodality offers a fixed way of life for those who wish to live a fuller and richer Catholic life than that de- manded of them. God has been generous to us at Loyola during the year. We have tried in a small way to be generous to Him and to make ourselves better prepared to receive His blessings.
