1-' Monte Cassino School Tulsa, Oklahoma and the yearbook staff: Patricia Flanagan, Editor Marilyn Bidnick, Copy Editor Sally Simpson, Layout Editor Gloria Swartz, Caption Editor Barbara Boudreau, Senior Editor D. LeRoy Randall, photographer Sister Jane Marie, faculty adviser assisted by the journalism class and the seniors of 1957 Present Volume Twelve The 195 7 THE THEME The final aim of the curriculum of Monte Cassino school is to produce the cultured, Christian women who will go out into the world and bring it back to God. Modesty, integrity, self-respect, grace, courage, charity, determination, high ideals, and a tremendous love of God, man, and life - these are the qualities required of the womanly woman whom Monte Cassino wishes to give the world, that they might help redeem it from its present chaos into a brighter, happier future. The ideals of the school are high ones indeed, but not new ones. For centuries, since the days of the origi- nal Monte Cassino of St. Benedict, the Benedictines have labored with zealous hands to bring civilization and culture to the ignorant and barbaric, light to the dark- ness of men who need God. And so the theme of this yearbook is to show, by a day-to-day picture of Monte Cassino life, just how this womanliness is molded into the student body, how, by loving hands, girls are prepared for their mission in the world, that of carrying the light of God's truth to a world sorely in need of Him. Cultured, Christian women for a better world - this is the aim of Monte Cassino and, hence, a fitting theme for the Pax of 1956-1957.

McGuinness, D.D., bishop of Oklahoma, dur- ing his twelve years in Oklahoma has built over a hundred churches, as well as rectories and convents, to transform the state from its missionary status to one of progress. For this inspired work and for his multiple spirit- ual efforts for our diocese, we thank him. We pray God to bless and help him, particularly in the project so dear to his heart at present, a Major Seminary for Oklahoma. llll PllIl2SiS 1 mmanmhm 55 The Rev.

This is the stated theme of the PAX. But hetore Monte Cassino can produce cultured, Christian women she IHUSI herself have the qualities she proposes to infuse into her students. The Benedittines come from an Order rich in just that: culture and Christianity. They originated hc-cause a young Roman named Benedict of Nursia fled Rome in the fifth cen- tury to escape its sickening mediocrity and de- tadency. lle started an Order designed to he the very antithesis ol Rome, and set down his own particular formula for monastic life in the llwfy Kult' of SI, liwzwlict. The Benedictine Order grew steadily in numhers. They invaded pagan lfurope as missionaries and converted it, thus giving hirth to its culture and civilization with their own hands, and through their own rule. Monte Cassinos Benedictine sisters come from St. wloseplrs Convent, which has been in Oklahoma lor sixty-six years. and was moved lrom Guthrie to Tulsa last year. Originally, it was a daughter house of St. Marys Convent, Pennsylvania, the first Benedictine convent in the United States. St. Mary's had heen founded in l852 hy a group of sisters from St. Will- hurga's Convent in liichstatt, Bavaria. And so, the Monte Cassino sisters possess a tradition of wisdom, knowledge, and goodness that has come down from the hands of St. Benedict himself. They are well-equipped to teach liy principle in the classroom, and hy ex- ample in the daily living of their community life. lt is in this daily community life ofthe sisters that the Pax linds the roots of all that is Monte Cassino. From here spring the love of God, man, and life that makes of Monte Cassino students cultured, Christian, young women. And so, here too, in the part of their lives most characteristic of them, is the INOSE appropriate place to depict the nuns from whose hands that culture and that Christianity come. First traces of spring are discovered by Sister Ignatia and Sister Berchmans. Sister Igriatia is The bursar and Sister Berchman is the school librarian.

They come in all shapes and sizes, makes and models, with many ideas, ambitions, and enthusiasms, but they all belong to Monte Cassino and can all look back on a pleasant school year which boasts many accomplishments. The juniors have undertaken their first Mardi Gras, and handled it superbly. The sophomores have managed to live rather sucecssfully through second-year Latin, and the freshmen have undergone a nine-month-long initiation into that new, exciting world called high school. And they're all another notch ahead, for they'll soon be seniors, juniors, and sophomores! The faculty too can look upon this group with pleasure and satisfaction, for most Monte Cassino stu- dents take their education well. The following pages tell the story of each classls school year, giving others a depiction of their school life, and themselves some- thing to look back on later. Here is the story of cultured, Christian woman in the making!

By doing their best in these things they continued to develop into Christian women. The juniors chose as their leaders to help them unite in work and activities, hlariellen Mont- gomery, president, Sara Baker, vice- presidentg Margaret Smith, secretary, and Anne Sherry, treasurer. During the year each class day began for them with God in learning their re- ligion. Father Maurice directed their course which this year was a Study of the New Testament. Next to God came their coun- try. Taught by Sister juliana they studied American history. ENGLISH BROADENED their knowledge of the essay, play, and novel, and Sister Mary Alice's theme assignments created writing ability by stimulating the mind. Lastly, their class as a whole took Christian Family Living, a course in which they prepared to be future women and mothers by learning home decoration and other arts concerned with the home. Besides their standard course there were many electives which were offered to the juniors. In a business course they took typing or shorthand. Algebra Il and Trig- onometry were offered to juniors as well as journalism. One of the most important elective courses at M.C. was the language course. Latin, French, and Spanish, were offered and many of the girls became fluent in another tongue. rlllllllll Top Row: Lynne Francisco, Cath- erine Graif, Judy Green.

They began the year with sports. Although they were beaten in the softball and basketball tournaments, the juniors gave their best in every game. They participated in swimming and ballet in order to gain grace and poise. The Kommando Klub, an organization made up of Cascia and Monte Cassino students, gained much participation from the junior class. Cheerleading for the Cascia teams were Mariellen Montgomery, Margaret Smith, and Jeanne Howell. The candidates for K.K. queen were Margaret Smith and Jeanne Howell. The social activities play a big part in the juniors life. In October they gave an Election Dance in the school cafeteria, but the highlight of the year was the Mardi Gras, a pre-lenten project sponsored by the upperclassmen. Page 44 JHNIHHS Top Row: Jo Lynn Sargent Anne Sherry Margaret Smith Beverly Snedden Bottom Row: Gloria Swcirtz Carole Wolf THE COMPE'I'l'1'lON was KEEN THIS YEAR as the classes fought with every legal weapon possible in their fund raising campaign -- the Mardi Gras. The juniors sponsored a carnival, many open houses, and bake sales. Hidden artistic talent was discovered when the girls prepared campaign posters to advertise their open houses, carnival, and dances. The school halls were decorated with posters from both classes and hardly an inch of wall space could be seen. juniors worked on dance decorations a week before the big night and used a Mardi Gras theme. Mrs. Kreder, C.F.L. director, gave them valuable aid on the artistic part of the project. After a week and a half of constant chaos and hard work, the moment when the winner was announced at the dance was anxiously awaited. The junior candidate, Mariellen Montgomery, and the class were disappointed of course, but firmly resolved to win next year.

There are the old friendships to be renewed and new ones to be made. After a summer of fun and relaxation students often find it difficult to arrive at class only three minutes after the bell. As animated conversations subside they scurry about in frantic efforts to locate the right room and teacher. Under the direction and guidance of Sister Mary Kevin, the class swings into the routine of becoming acquainted and accustomed to new responsibilities. To insure unity with God and man each day Religion Il is at the head of the schedule. The class searches for the truths of God and His Church as they study the development of the Church year, Christ made present today, and man's obligations to God and neighbor. Next on the schedule is Latin II class conducted by Sister Mary Louise. Since they are a little rusty on verbs and conjugation, intense reviewing is in store for the students. After that the sophomores eagerly delve into the complex realm of the locative case, deponent verbs and the ever-confusing ablative absolute. fi Making the most out ot a forty-tive minute study hall, sopho- mores attaclc their tedious assignments. Pictured, in the first row, are Judy Wade, Pat Kennedy, Gilda Stolti, Mary Helen McDermott, and Mary Agnes Windler, in the second row, Kathleen Nichols, Jan l-ieslep, and Diane Siegfried. Page 47 Page 48 Kay Hughes, working on a difficult geometry problem, suddenly seems To have discovered an answer. Working with her are Mary Jane Rhotan, Diane Stewart, Sara Williams, and Sally Meyers. THE s'1'UnY OF PLANE Gi2oM12'1'RY presents the sophomores with quite a different step into the realm of mathematics. Though a little discouraged at first, the students, under Mrs. Williiini Myers' direction, now are acquainted with the maze of theorems and cor- ollaries. With new enthusiasm they twirl their compasses with dexterity and proudly use gcomcrl-if terms with the greatest of ease while solving the theorems assigned them. They especially enjoy the open discussions during which criticism of one's work is given and accepted. English ll under the direction of Sister Mary Charles perhaps offers the sophomores more of a challenge than any other class. After studying the grammar construction of good writing and basic rules the class undertakes the second unit of the course. This unit, the Social Responsihilityof the Christian, is a favorite each year. The controlling idea throughout the unit, Unless we give Christ to men we are not Christiansf' is kept in mind as the students read core books such as Dark Synzphwzy and Merclmizl of Venice in order to discuss and study the social problems of the Negro, jew, and Labor-Management. In chant class with Sister Mary Regina as instructor the students study the Church Year, the Mass and the Gregorian chant. This helps them gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the Church and her music, Rhoton, Diane Siegfried, Carmen Sanchez.

SIiIlHHllHIilS ONE OF THE CLASSES WHICH IS THE NEWEST EXPERIENCE to the sophomores as stu- dents is biology. Under the able direction of Mrs. Ernest Frisco the class has found that this world of theirs is filled with adventures of life they never dreamed were there. Starting with the lower plants they learn how plant life is essential to man at all times not for nourishment but also for oxygen to breathe. Soon the students master biologi- cal terms such as osmosis, pollination and photosynthesis. Of course everyone looks for- ward to the study of animal life and what else is so essential in this phase of biology as the art of dissection. Though at first most of the sophomores shrank at the word dis- section, no longer do they wrinkle their noses at the prospect of staring at an earth- worms esophagus but proudly call themselves the F.S.A., CFuture Surgeons of Americab. Physical Education class under the direction of Mrs. Mary jo Bradford is also a fav- orite with the students. As the school year begins softball heads the agenda with the softball tournament. The sophomores, beaten by a strongfreshman team for the trophy in a tight race, have strong hopes for next year, Following the softball games the basket- ball season begins and although a varsity is missed this year the keen competition in intramural games more than make up for it, Basketball is a favorite with the sopho- mores and although handicapped by a small class the high spirit and enthusiasm makes the game enjoyable for all. Ooh, it smells, cries Pat Estes far right, cringing at the sight of the frog in her hand.

RELIGION, THE CENTRAL THEME at Monte Cas- sino, was the first and most important subject of the freshman day. After studying the Mass and the importance of Holy Communion, they made altar breads and gave them to Father to consecrate. Then later they attended Mass in a body and received these hosts which they had made. Studying the Christian student's relations with God and his fellowmen came under the heading of English. Reading works of Tolstoy, Shakespeare, and Tennyson increased their understanding of these relations, as did the writing of autobiographies, a project which each student undertook. The class spent many an exciting hour facing the perils and undertaking the adventures of the characters in their literature anthology, One of the most interesting aspects of high school for the freshmen was the study of a foreign lan- guage, As Sister Louise, their Latin teacher, put it, Latin puts wrinkles in your brain, and her eager pupils covered Latin grammar, the Greek alphabet, Homer's Ilairl and Odyrrey, and many short stories to acquire these necessary wrinkles. The peak of their enjoyment of this class was the Latin Banquet, held March 19, and it proved a gala Latin evening for all. The students were attired in the traditional togas of the citizens, slaves, gods, and goddesses of ancient Rome, and the entertainment and food were also strictly Latin, as were the menus, invita- tions, and speeches. . -,S 'D! .-WR' M Page '51 st. st 1 its . 5 . 3 - fy... g i up .,.,, me 3 12 11...

PHYSICAL EDUCATION WAS ONE of the most popular of the fresh- man classes. Eager to improve their athletic ability, they Worked hard and thus won the softball tournament. This same school spirit en- abled them to win the coveted spirit trophy. For the first time in the history of the high school, the freshman class had their own cheerleaders to lead the pep squad at all Cascia B games. These girls were Barbara Huston, Elaine Leroux, Mary Kelly, and Phyllis Parker. The month of February saw many busy and anxious moments as the juniors and seniors battled it out for Mardi Gras honors. The night of the ball found the freshman representative, Susan Paschall, attending the senior candidate, Her Majesty Mary Helen Fredrick. UREPETITION is THE MOTHER OF STUDIES,n and if the Frosh studied their history as much as Sister Julianna repeated it, then you can be sure that they have a very thorough grasp of ancient and medieval civilizations.

Love OF GOOD Music INSPIRED MANY of the freshmen to join the Glee Club, and they participated in a music festival in Oklahoma City, as well as giving several programs at school. Through the study of Gregorian Chant they increased their knowledge and appreciation of the Liturgy of the Church. Christian Family Living prepared the students to become good Christian wives and mothers. They studied personality development and cooking. Many a burnt pan of fudge and many a fallen cake taught the girls the importance and absolute necessity of reading the recipes cor- rectly, of following all directions carefully, and measuring all things accurately. In their study of personality development, they discovered the key which opens the door to poise 'n boysf' As THE sPR1No TURNED T0 suMMi2R, the freshmen suddenly real- ized that their first year of highschool was drawing all too soon to a close. They had spent nine months together and had formed many grand new friendships - ones that they hope will last for a life- time. Although there had been many bridges to cross and many torches to burn Cat night studying! D, they had fought a good fight and were no longer the green rookies they had been in September, but were now seasoned veterans, ready to help next year's freshmen, as their upperclassmen had helped them, They are proud to be the freshman class that starts the second fifty years of the state of Okla- homa, and they hope that, when they become the mothers of to- morrow, they will form a strong backbone in their cominunities.

Sweaters and tweeds mark the dis- appearance of green from nature, and all are bedecked in reds, greys, browns, and blacks, including nature. Winter also brings with it the excited anticipation of just pure fun. While school goes on as ever, football and then basketball fill many a screaming, cheering night, and many a hoarse morning. The Pre-Advent formal and the Kommando Klub dance almost officially start the year's activities. Everything is in full swing and life is rich and full to the very brim. The following pages are devoted to Monte Cassino's co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, which com- plement her academic schedule to produce a well- balanced educational program. Here the Pax will show students learning to conduct themselves gracefully at social affairs, learning to perform confidently before an audience, and in general learning what it takes to make a young lady out of a young girl. Here are future women learning to live in the modern world in a cultured and truly Christian way.

Page 76 5 F QM, M, The Grocle School Spring, as always, brings new birth, new life, and renewed enthusiasm to man. Grass again turns green, flowers bloom, birds twitter, and the air is electrified with a kind of joyous energy. Because of its newness, its freshness, and its greenness, spring is the season of youth, of the very young, for as spring signifies hope for nature, youth signifies hope for the world. And so the spring section of the Pax has been ap- propriately dedicated to Monte Cassino's grade school. The young tykes who daily scamper through her halls, and even the older ones who have learned that one must walk down them like a lady, signify by their very youth the oncoming potential of their school. Here, the ma- terials are being prepared to undergo the educational process of high school, which is a preparation for the further process of college, to the ultimate goal of pro- ducing cultured, Christian women. Here is where the loving hands of patient sisters first begin the training of the young mind, first begin the labor of transmitting to that mind the wealth of knowledge that is the Bene- dictine tradition. Here is the root of the Benedictine story, for here is where it begins. SPRING THIE YOUNQ Eighth Grdde learning about discounts and commissions are Sharon McCabe, Nancy Ottinger, Rita Moore, Patsy White, Deanna Downs, Tobie Stewart, Joyce Duckworth, Rita Whitehead, and Mary Leroux.

Tins MAoici Cliiizisimas Bizi.i., an operetta in two acts, was presented on December 7 by stars from the first five grades. The first act followed the legend of long ago that if a good deed is performed on Christmas Eve the snowman will come to life. The setting for the second act was Santa's workshop, where tired old Santa oversleeps and discovers he will not be able to cover the world in time. The Magic Bell calls Santas helpers from far and near to help distribute Christmas gifts. Children from many lands, all decked out in their native costumes, come to deliver the presents. A tableau scene of the Christmas crib and a voice choir from the fifth grade closed the performance. Chinamen Chris Ullman and Peter Beshara have a lot to say about distributing the Christmas presents. call, ,nfs Nancy The entire cast takes a curtain Thfge little 9l l5 of Japan Williams, Melinda Melinder, and Ann Sheridan - bring that country to life, Physicol Educotion THE 1iXc3ELI.15N'i' PROGRAM OF VARIIEIJ SPORTS is ample proof of the vigorous participation the Ameri can youth takes in sports.

Melinda Melinder, Peggy Ottinger, Niente Ingersoll and Mary Prater seem to have found time for a little relaxation, MARY HAVEN, under the jurisdiction of Sister Mildred, is a second home for the little tots, who seem to enjoy being on the tip-top floor of the large dormitory. They learn that after school work and chores are taken care of, there is a great deal of fun to be had. When their homework is finished, they gather around the corner watching television, although on sunny days they prefer the outdoor life on the swings, slides, and jungle gym. The second floor of the residence hall houses the seventh and eighth grade boarders. Sister Roberta, prefect, is there to worry about the girls' health and welfare, to pass out mail, campus, check rooms, help solve problems, and, in short, to be a mother away from home to them. The girls rise and shine early, attend Mass and break- fast, and then are off to school. Before dinner they enjoy recreation as well as a study hall. For those who spend the weekend, there are shopping tours, movies, and parties too. Collette Wagster, Judy Blythe, Julie Wagster, Jane Orenduff and Patricia Gaiser are always first in line when the dinner bell rings.
