This huge supporting cast has en- abled its Moderators, Father Alfred Smith, O.S.A. and Father Gerald Duff, 0.S.A., to set up a well established re- ligious program in Bonner. The most important job of this club is the serving of Mass for the priests in the monastery and at class Mass. The B.B.C. also has its social side. They have held two successful dances and arranged for a trip to a Warriors bas- ketball game and a trip to the shore. Probably their most enjoyable privi- leges are their own basketball league and private use of the gym on Saturday mornings. rgys THE MEMBERS of the B.B.C. take time out from one of their meetings to pose with their moderators for our photog- rapher. ,ft Q THE PROPER SETTING-The four officers of the Bonner Breakfast Club pose with their moderators in the school chapel.
