CENTRAL CONTROL-One of the oldest organizations in the school is the Radio Club. Under the guidance of their moderator, Mr. Dondero, the members combine an interesting pastime with technical training, which eventu- ally leads to the coveted ham operator's license. This worthwhile extracurricular activity pro- vides an opportunity to acquire a talent which would otherwise take months of intensive study. CHECKOUT-Members of the Chemistry Club watch with satisfaction as the dry words of the textbook become reality. Fr. Spinelli, the mod- erator, offers these enterprising students a chance to probe further the vast galaxy of Chemistry. These future scientists are fortunate in having the opportunity to advance in both thc technical and practical knowledge of the science. BUDDING RESEARCHERS-Fathers McNulty and Laverty explain the intricacies of a frog to several interested members of the Biology Club. With plastic reproductions such as the one pictured above, the student has the ad- vantage of a first-hand, life-like demonstration to serve as a visual aid. Our well-equipped Biology lab offers many facilities which enable the student to further his knowledge of the subject and enjoy his hours of study. .fc knee Hubs

ON T0 FRANKLIN FIELD-This was the phrase that helped to orbit our victorious football team to the City Chmpionship. The spirit of the student body was largely responsible for our Friars'5'A-OK performance. When the chips were down, the spontaneous reaction in the stands gave renewed vigor to our gridders, thus triggering another Bonner triumph. mo ale boosters . ..

mb' hg ffze p og am The initial thrust that has boosted many of the activities off the ground has been the Fathers and Sons Club. It is largely responsible for the financial backing and the organization of the majority of Bonner enterprises. True to form, the current organization has equaled the fine record of previous years. Its program for the year includes Activities Night, the Bonner Fair, College Night, Career Night, the Communion Breakfast, and numerous others. In every sense of the word, they can be called the G'Founding Fathers of Bonner. A PERFECT LAUNCHING-Since the start of the school year, the Fathers Club has been preparing the build-up to provide the perfect lift-off for the Bonner Fair. The whirlwind activities of thc gala event blazing brightly in this picture are a fitting tribute to the enthusiasm and planning of the Fathers and Sons Association and of its moderator, Father Mahoney.
