We, the editors of the 1941 “Mount, have compiled this brief record of our class, not for its historical significance alone, but in an effort to recapture the atmosphere and spirit of four happy years at M. S. J. Hence, we have attempted to encase both between these leather covers, in the belief that at some future time they may become the key that unlocks the portals of memory leading back to these joyous days, our “life’s springtime. Mount Saint Class Flower Forget-Me-Not The Very Reverend John M. Brows, V. F. Dedication We, the Class of 1941, deem it a special honor and privilege to dedicate our yearbook to the Very Reverend John M. Brown, V.F., pastor of St. Peter’s Church on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee Year of his Ordination to the Holy Priesthood. Father Brown has spent fifty fruitful years in the service of God and his fellowmen, beloved and respected by young and old. Many of us have received Baptism at his hands and have known Father intimately since our attendance at St. Peter’s school. His cheerful manner, as well as his kind interest in our welfare, has endeared him to each of us, his grateful children. We extend to Father Brown our sincere congratulations and appreciation. We’ll pray to thee always, St. Joseph, And ne’er will our prayer be in vain; To imitate your holy virtues, Will be our constant aim. St. Joseph, Titular Patron of the Academy The Most Reverend Matthew F. Brady, D. D., Eishop of Burlington To our beloved and highly respected Most Reverend Bishop Brady, who by his gentle wisdom, winning firmness, and self-sacrificing love is so zealously extending the Kingdom of Christ among men, the Class of ’41 express their sincere desire that God may grant His Excellency length of days in the Burlington diocese. Reverend John M. Kennedy djfo (Dub Beloved Bbiests The Class of 1941, through the pages of “The Mount,’’ extend to Rev. Father Vezina and Rev. Father Kennedy sincere appreciation for the gracious interest, kindly encouragement, and gentle Benediction with which they have made our years at the Mount so profitable. Through their efforts the “Way of Truth and Light’’ has been made accessible to us, and noble ideals inspired in our hearts. We also pay grateful tribute to Reverend Father Miller, Reverend Father Maloney, and Reverend Father Marcoux who have come weekly to our class' rooms to impart Religious Instruction, and who have organized various activities and societies for our benefit and pleasure. (Dun zjni ute Wc feel fortunate, indeed, to have the privilege of expressing to our Chaplain, the Reverend Father Connor, a sincere acknowledgement of our appreciation of his presence among us. His kind concession to our slightest requests, as well as his mild adherence to what is noble and upright has, at all times, made Father Connor an inspiration to us. In him we recognize the model “Alter Christus ’ who mingles the human with the spiritual in order to win souls to Christ. We au At the close of our high school days at Mt. St. Joseph Academy, we wish to thank sincerely our self-sacrificing teachers, the Sisters of St. Joseph, who were our instructors in our early school years, as well as those who have guided us during our Academy days, teaching us always to Seek First die Kingdom of God.’’ To Reverend Mother M.

CLASS OFFICERS V Martina Cannon QlaUdictolHf We, the class of .1941, have assembled here tonight, on the occasion of our graduation from our beloved Alma Mater, Mount Saint Joseph Academy. We will step forward soon to receive our diplomas, feeling relieved and light-hearted now that years of study, instructions, and examinations are completed. Yet, we know that this is the beginning of a new life—a facing of the years ahead, relying more on our own resources than ever before in our lives. For those of us who will complete our education in a college or university, courses of study will still continue; for others the struggle for a position, adjustment to business, and social relations with more mature persons—all these will claim our immediate attention. While some few may have the false idea that they will be able to conquer the world with ease, the vast majority of us arc ready for hard work. With the horrors of war spreading rapidly, and its economic reper- cussions sounding throughout the world, we know that we are living in abnormally serious times. As graduates of Mt. St. Joseph, we feel we are especially prepared to meet these odds, for the training of our youthful lives has not been in vain. Strengthened in character, as well as informed in mind, we are indebted to our dear parents and teachers for our Catholic education which gives us the courage to go on with confidence with the Prince of Peace as our Guide. paluiatoMj Dear parents and friends, it is my unique privilege to greet you this evening in the name of the Class of 1941. Your presence at our graduation exercises is but another of the many proofs of your kindly interest that has followed us so closely during our high school course at Mt. St. Joseph Academy. Tonight is your night, in a certain sense, as well as ours. You have made possible for us, by your sacrifices, the benefits of a Catholic high school education. Hence it is, with feelings of deepest gratitude and appreciation, that we welcome each and every one of you to our com- mencement program. To our pastors, who have aided us spiritually, as well as materially, to our Principal and members of the faculty, to whose untiring efforts much of our success is due, we extend the encouraging promise that we will try to live up to the noble principles which they have so deeply impressed upon our minds during tne past four years. James Foster (president's Address William Fagan For twelve anxious years we have been striving diligently for this day that draws us near to the achievement of our goal—graduation. Our hopes and inspirations have been fulfilled; tonight we welcome you to our Class Night Exercises. We are now ready to take our places in the everyday world. Graduation, to some pupils, means the end of the pursuit of knowledge, or the seeking of any definite aim; but to graduates of Mount Saint Joseph it is the stepping stone to success. From it, some will merge into the business world, others will advance to higher education. Whatever our choice of vocation may be, due to the excellent training afforded us by competent and zealous teachers, we are well qualified to withstand courageously the storms of a confused and troubled world. As president of the Class of 1941, in the name of each graduate, I extend deep appreciation to our pastors and to their assistants for the wholehearted interest they have shown in our spiritual and material welfare; to our teachers, who have spared no efforts in their attempts to impart to us the knowledge of mind and soul we now possess; and above all to our parents, who have made untold sacrifices that we might attend a Catholic high school and thereby obtain a thorough foundation in the truths of our Religion, as well as in secular studies. Keeping these sacrifices in mind, we shall ever strive “to sow the good seed” among our fellowmcn by living exemplary lives, as truly Catholic American citizens. William Fagan Music—-James Foster Words—Edwin Bassett £!a$s onq i The hour has come companions all, A parting song to sing; echoing through the hall, Our voices clear in sweet accord, In final chorus will sing no more. Chorus Dear Alma Mater, We bid you fond adieu, As from your portals, We leave to labors new, And through the years before us, No matter where we be, We’ll always cherish memories of thee. II No. fear of failure does our future hold, Our prow is guided by the “Master’s Hand.’’ We’ll toil for God and for our countrymen, And find our rest in His Promised Land.

Rita Todriff Dear Diary: Words can hardly express the pleasant experience I had today. I met Joseph Lovett, ao old classmate of mine, and what an interesting chat we had! Memories of long ago came back as we talked on and on. Gradually curiosity urged me to inquire about the classmates from whom we had parted ten long years ago.

Stuart February 17, the Class of ’41 under the direction of Sister Mary Jerome, presented a three-act comedy drama, “America First,’’ at a matinee and evening performance at the Rutland High School Auditorium. This was a play of one-hundrcd-perccnt Americans, who find themselves embroiled in the sub- versive activities of a group of aliens, out to corrupt the ideals of American youth. It was a play of exciting situations, amusing comedy moments, tense action and heart interest. The cast included the following players: Edwin Bassett, James Foster, Alice Laughlin, Shirley Swift, Albert Cree, Verna Lauro, Marilyn Alexander, Richard Davis, Pauline Traynor, Robert Stuart and William Fagan. In April the Mount entered the annual district one-act play contest and competed with Poultney and Fair Haven High Schools in the school gym. The Academy’s entry was the play “lie’’ by Eugene O’Neil and was coached by Sister Mary Imelda. Edwin Bassett, James Foster, Henry Russo and Guy Startari were the senior members of the cast.

Under the direction of Sister Mary Annunciata the officers planned activities for the year. In October the members entered a stamp contest with St. Mary's High School, Utica, N. Y. in which the Academy was winner. Christmas baskets for needy families were provided by the Sodality, and in February a skating party was enjoyed by the members. The numerous spiritual benefits derived from membership in this associa- tion, and the many social activities sponsored by the sodalists during the year have made the Mt. St. Joseph Sodality one of the prominent societies of the school. S TUB nem inrr HOLY NAME SOCIETY OFFICERS Left lo right: F. Caooioe, Treasurer; J. Foster, Vice President, J.

Ranking among the foremost parish youth societies, the Holy Name group is composed of Mount Saint Joseph boys who number two hundred strong. The Society has been active in social and athletic affairs and has been recognized as a leader in all spiritual projects. Its first activity was a banquet given in November, at which the Most Reverend Matthew F. Brady, Bishop of Burlington, was in attendance. During the year several dances and bingo parties were sponsored for the benefit of the Catholic Boy Scouts. Its contribution to athletics was the inaugurating of the Catholic Boys’ Basketball League and the Young Men’s Catholic Softball League. The members of the Junior Holy Name Society receive Holy Communion in a body every four weeks. As a charity project they delivered baskets of food to needy families during the Christmas Holidays. The Holy Name Boys strive at all times to live up to the purpose of their society, namely, “To Honor and Revere the Holy Name of Jesus.” DEBATING TEAM 1 Seated: S. Swift, A. Laughi.in SbmJing: E.

The subject was the national debate topic, “Resolved that the Nations of the Western Hemisphere Form a Pcrma- nent Union.” The returns showed that Middlebury and Mt. St. Joseph had qualified for the State Meet in the order named. In Burlington, April 19-20, the team composed of Albert Cree and James Foster, affirmative, Edwin Bassett and William Fagan, negative, won fourth place in competition with seven other contestants. ffiize jeahinq Contest March 1, the annual prize speaking contest directed by Sr. M. Annun- ciata was held in the school gym. Theresa Hamel, whose selection was, “On His Honor” was winner of first prize and represented M. S. J. at the district contest in Burlington, April 25. Second prize was awarded to Francis Cag- gige, and honorable mention to Helena Lcahcy. PRIZE SPEAKING CONTESTANTS Said: F. Caogigf., J. Fostfir. R. Stuart StiroJing: P. Traynor, T. Hamel, S.

Using the motto: “Learn by doing,” two hundred twelve boys from all parts of the state studied and practiced the principles of democratic government. To add variety to the program the youthful legislators played baseball, basketball, and tennis for recreation. John Clifford, Thomas LaPenna, John LaVecchia, Joseph Lovett, Albert Cree and James Raleigh, the Mount St. Joseph delegates to Boys’ State, enjoyed keenly their experiences in the various phases of politics involved in State government, such as the campaign speeches, elections, town meetings, sessions of the legislature, as well as the daily entertainment program and exhilarating swimming.

The band presented a colorful appearance as it played lively strains at many of the football and basketball games during the year. An important feature of life at Mt. St. Joseph, it has, under the direction of Sr. M. Evange- list, distinguished itself on numerous occasions, such as- May Procession, August 15, Governor’s Day, Soutnem Vermont Tournament, Schoolboy Patrol Convention, Woodstock Memorial Day Celebration, and the May Concert. QH. JJ. ee £ bonus The Mt. St. Joseph Glee Chorus under the direction of Sister Mary St. John held practice weekly throughout the school year. This year the choruses have made a study of the famous American, as well as European composers. Foremost among the accomplishments of the choristers was the singing of the Gregorian Chant at St. Joseph’s Day Mass. The boys’ and girls’ choruses have furnished music at the program in honor of St. Cecilia, Mass on St. Joseph’s Day, May Day Procession, June Coir cert, Requiem Masses, Benediction, Holy Hour, and graduation exercises.

St. Joseph’s version of football in the 1940 season was, as it always has been in the past, a complete success, and was practically a repetition of the previous year. For the second time in succession, the Mounties copped the Marble Valley League Championship with an unblemished record. During the season the Academy gridsters won seven contests and dropped one. Their seven victims were: St. Mary's of St. Albans, Hartford, Proctor, Middlebury, Poultney, Fair Haven, and West Rutland. Rutland High School was the only team to outscore the Acads on the gridiron. In the eight games played the Wave piled up a total of 144 points, against 49 for their opponents, which gives them an average win of about 18-5. 1940 Schedule St. Mary’s M.S.J. 20 Opp. 7 Rutland 18 20 Hartford 21 7 Proctor 55 7 Middlebury 6 0 Poultney M.S.J. 19 Opp. 0 Fair Haven 6 2 West Rutland 9 6 144 49 Men Who Scored For M.

St. Joseph, have just reason to be proud of the efficient basketball team which represented the Academy, in the 1940-41 campaign. During the season the team won an enviable record, and was foremost among the leading teams of the State. In the Southern Vermont League, the Acads ended up in the No. 3 spot with a record of eight wins against six set-backs. In the Southern Vermont Tournament, they blasted away at all opposition, and fell short of the Championship, when Springfield High School tripped them in the finals. The Mountics participated in the State Tournament at Burlington where they were, after a terrific struggle, downed by a strong Cathedral five in the opening rounds. In the entire season, including the Southern Vermont and State Tourna- ments, the Wave scored 755 points against 682 won by their opponents. The combination of Russo, Daly, Morris, Ballou, and Lovett supplemented by the reserve duties of Hackett, Walker, Lemmo, and Margo made all oppon- ents literally fear the fighting spirit of M. S. J. Herb Russo led the Academy scoring attack with a total of 171 points in 23 games played, while Jack Daley ranked second with 145 points in as many games. Joe Lovett was another prominent scorer with 126 points in 21 games. Bob Ballou, while not a high scorer, made up for this in his defensive tactics. Bob’s election to the All Tournament team in Southern Vermont proves his ability as a ball player. 1940-41 Schedule M.S.J. Opp. M.S.J.

O’Rourke JJumgh Qfafisiiy BasketLll Under the mentorship of Coach Joe Moore, the Junior Varsity won credit' able standing in their class of basketball—that of State Champions. Only one defeat was suffered by the Mooremen in the ’40’41 season and that at the hands of the Windsor Junior Varsity, a team noted for its victories on the home court. Cool, steady, and fast ball handling were the determining points of the Jayvec success. Many of the players on the Jayvee squad were also prominent in the varsity games. Foremost among these were Hackett and Walker, who contributed a great deal of offensive as well as defensive power to the Academy five. Judging from the brilliant display of teamwork and talent on the part of the Mooremen, Coach Baldwin will have little difficulty in filling positions which have been left open due to graduation of varsity players. The state champs, all Sophomores and Freshmen, promise a lively type of basketball during the next few seasons. 1940-1941 Schedule M.S.J. Opp. M.S.J.

Through the medium of the inter-class games the girls are given a chance to compete with girls of equal ability, and thus exercise a spirit of rivalry. This aim has been fully realized during the past season. Aided by the competent coaching of Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Moore, the senior girls came through with flying colors to capture the basketball title for their class. The shooting ability of Dorothy West, Lena Spine and Eleanor Thrall coupled with the excellent guard work of Mary Margaret Burke, Theresa LaVecchia and Mary Valente won success and recognition for their team.

Flort Qla isittf Baseiall Under the capable management and direction of Coach A1 Baldwin, the 1941 baseball team made one of the finest starts in the history of the school. As we go to press, the Acads are winners of five contests out of six, losing to Rutland by a 109 count after winning five straight. The '41 infield is composed of Walker at first, Hackett at second, Sapinski at short and Pratico at third, with Oskoski doing the receiving. In the outer garden there is McGinnis in left, with Flory in center, and Dolphin in right. In almost every game the pitching staff has worked royally. Babe Spoon, our freshman southpaw, astonished everybody by accomplishing the unbelievable a no-hitter. Besides Spoon, three other twirlers comprise the pitching department. They are Hank Smith, Ace Bartlett, and Rod Fagan. The Acads at the plate have battered opposing pitchers relentlessly, some of them holding batting averages well above the .400 mark.
