Ronald Mack Business Manager 4 .pf EE Publishing a yearbook is a unique experience-one which will never be forgotten by the individuals who played an intrinsic role in bringing the job to completion. Now that the puzzle of the yearbook has been solved, we are in a position to look back and evaluate our efforts. When the work commenced in September of this school year, all we had for a starting point was a vague concept of a yearbook. We anticipated the great amount of work ahead of us with a feeling of pessimism, thinking that perhaps we were incapable of the task. But slowly and steadily we began building upon our concept-choosing staffs, amassing photos, writing copy, and soliciting ads. Thus day by day, piece by piece the almost unintelligible concept began ma- terializing into a more vivid reality. The difficulties which we ex- perienced were varied and frequent. Many times we felt the pre- deadline pressure' sapping us of that necessary encouraging factor, and then it was only the fundamental desire to fulfill the Will of God which kept us at the task. We must admit that the job of publication was actually a course in itself. Besides the journalistic knowledge we acquired, we learned how to grow in certain virtues, we learned much about the major Polish fraternal organizations in the U. S., and we learned more about Orchard Lake. ln viewing the 1956 Eagle in its totality, we see now that it means much more to us than a mere collection of photos and copy pertinent to the scholastic year of 1955-56. It represents a cooperative effort worthy of praiseg it is the culmination of our four-year stay at Orchard Lakeg it is a manifestation of a devotion to the Will of Godg it is a reminder of the many headaches and sacrifices which we endured on its account.

SODALIS THE SODALIS, a monthly faculty publication, gives expression to current records on subjects of Polish cultural interest to a nation-wide audience of Polish-Americans. In the past years special ef- forts have been put forth to commemorate out- standing events, and specially dedicated issues have been published to mark the centennial of the death of Adam Mickiewicz, the centennial of the found- ing of the Felician Sisters, and tricentennial of the victory at Czestochowa under the patronage of Our Lady, Queen of Poland. LAKE ORACLE As the official campus paper, The Lake Oracle, men- tored by Father Edward Skrocki of the English department, has fulfilled its purpose for the past sixteen years in re- flecting the news and views of St. Mary's. It has faithfully expressed life on the Orchard Lake campus not only to the students but also to the Alumni. It is a publication which proudly boasts of modest achievements in literary and journalistic endeavors. The College freshmen and sopho- mores occupy the major positions in publishing this cam- pus paper. Staff: Editor: E. Balazy: Associate Editor: E. Warychg As- sistant News Editor: K.
