It ' s American It ' s Marian ominican 9iU Cbjte uccm ' JI io iicmA I r DoTTu Jiiccm I Our 1958 theme 3 77 We at Dominican Academy are proud of oijr three heritages; we are Ameri- can, we are Marian, we are Dominican. Our 1958 theme is a symbol of the unity of these three in the Dominican student; it covers every phase of a student ' s life at DA. In order to be good Dominicans, we must love and honor Mary, and we connot be good DA students unless we are good Americans. A yearbook theme is chosen with great care in DA, because it becomes the theme of the whole year and is worked out in our daily scholastic routine. It is meant to be a means of improving in some way our life at the school. We try to live out our theme, as this year we tried to make each student more aware of our threefold heritage, more proud of this heritage, more earnest in living up to the challenge it presents. As we saluted the flag, we were proud to say we are Americans. We learned more about our wonderful country, and this knowledge deepened our apprecia- tion of our privileges as Americans and the responsibilities which privileges al- ways entail. We prayed to our Blessed Mother, re- membering that she is the patroness of America, under the title of the Immacu- late Conception. We tried to honor her in every way possible, as in dedicating our yearbook to her. Under our Dominican motto, Veritas, we searched for God with our highest faculty, our intellect. We searched for Truth, the Supreme Truth, in the Domini- can Way. We found we could become more Dominican by studying the lives of the saints of the Order, some of whom are among the Church ' s greatest theolo- gians and scientists as well as saints; by becoming more apostolic, since the true Dominican always thinks with the mind of the Church. We, the Class of ' 58, believe our theme to be an expression of our rich, enthusiastic school spirit, and we are con- fident that because of our senior theme we will always be more truly American, rrore loyally Marian, more deeply and sincerely Dominican. our threefold heritage ODLUCTION TABLE OF CONTENTS Theme 2 Dedication 4 Faculty 8 Seniors 10 Undergraduates 32 Activities 46 Athletics 72 Senior Directory 80 Advertisements 82 Lourdes 1858-1958 DEDICATION ' ' ' V X4U mM - When our Blessed Mother appeared at Lourdes one hundred years ago and told Bernadette Sou- birous, I am the Immaculate Conception, Berna- dette did not fully understand the meaning of the words, but she believed. Many of us today still do not grasp Our Lady ' s full meaning, but like Berna- dette we also believe, and we recognize in Lourdes a symbol of simple faith in a century of complexi- ties. From the miracles of Lourdes, we may gain fresh confidence in God; it has been truly said that no one visiting Lourdes has ever returned without the solid impression of vital, living faith. Our Lady is there in its aura of glowing faith and sanctity. Divine power is evidenced in the ever-recurring miracles. This year marks the centenary of the Lourdes ap- paritions. The beautiful Lady who spoke to Berna- dette is a wonderful Mother who has helped each of us many times during our four years in Dominican Academy. Like the perfect Mother that she is, this blessed Lady has never asked anything in return. We hove never been able to show her how much we loved her and appreciated the things she has done for us. To manifest in our own little way our love and appreciation, it is fitting, therefore, that we dedicate our yearbook, this lasting memento of our high school years, to the Blessed Virgin under the title of Our Lady of Lourdes. We would wish to make Lourdes better known by joining the thousands who will pay special honor to Mary during this year of the Lourdes centenary. May this dedication serve as a reminder of the Dominican perspective of Lourdes. For, as a symbol of faith, Lourdes should be very meaningful to an Order dedicated to championing the faith. And as an integral factor of this great Marian Age, Lourdes should figure highly in the thought life and prayer life of an Order that has always sought and received the patronage of the Immaculate Mother of God. Dominican Calendar, 1958. Dear Saint Bernadette, kneeling before Our Lady, representing the youth of the world, please speak to her for us. Plead for world peace and the annihila- tion of all Communistic ideology. Tell her of our ever burning love for her; ask her please to keep us pure in heart and mind; ask her also to give us strength in this, a very difficult stage of life for us; tell her that we wish to be enfolded in her loving arms during these trying times; ask her to create in us a hatred of sin and temptation; tell her that today we dedi- cate to her our yearbook. Plead for each one of us, that after graduation and in our future years we may be modeled after her, the most perfect of women. PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF LOURDES Heeding your voice, O Immaculate Virgin of Lourdes, we hasten to your feet at the humble grotto where you deigned to appear to show the way of prayer and penitence to those astray, and to dispense to the stricken the graces and wonders of your unsurpassed kindness. Receive, O merciful Queen, the praise and supplications which peoples and nations, oppressed by bitterness and anxiety, trustfully raise to you. O fair vision of paradise, banish the darkness of error from our minds with the light of faith! O Mystical Rose, relieve crushed souls with the heavenly fra- grance of hope! O inexhaustible source of healing waters, revive barren hearts with the flow of divine love! Grant that all of us, your sons and daughters, comforted by you in our sorrows, protected in our dangers and aided in our struggles, may love and serve your gentle Jesus, and merit eternal happiness near your heavenly throne. —His Holiness, Pope Pius XII Friends, apostles, Our Most Reverend Bishop 6 and the zealous priests who help us Our tirelessly devoted Dominican faculty REVEREND MOTHER M.

Little Mrs. Leonio Sweeney Miss Elizabeth M. Lajoie During our four years in Dominican, we have seen our school grow more American, chiefly through the organization of the Student Coun- cil and the Dominican Debaters, and through our mimeographed Newsette, by means of which students can exercise freedom of speech and can voice their opinions more readily than through the formal printed paper. DA has be- come more Marian and continues to grow closer to Mary through the newly organized Sodality of Our Lady of the Rosary. Our school also seems more thoroughly Dominican now than it was four years ago, because the yearbook themes have been making us more conscious of our Dominican heritage and have encouraged us to take advantage of the rich treasure it offers.

Our school is AMERICAN FOUR YEARS IN DA makes a girl a better American, through a democratic system of elections for officers and leaders, through participation in school government in Student Council, through study and research in American history, in which she learns how America was begun, how it has progressed and is still progressing, how the gov- ernment functions. (Leff): Louise Levasseur, during the assembly announcing the yearbook theme. EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL, an American trait exemplified in the Nationol Merit Scholarship examinations, which P. Bourassa (leff) and M. Boutin are discussing. Twenty-four seniors took the examination October 22. (Below): FREEDOM OF SPEECH and assembly, American rights shown in this meeting of the debote club. Student officers preside, while coach Mr. Grace listens attentively from the sidelines. STUDYING AMERICAN HISTORY is a serious matter with these seniors. M.

Letalien, E. Maltais, C. Perry and G. Nunes look over the program of the annual Publications Conference for Catholic Schools held at Merri- mack College, where students from all New England take part in panel dis- cussions and demonstrations, and re- ceive advice from experts in all phases of publication work.

Our school is MARIAN THE MOST CASUAL OB- SERVER could not fail to note the Marian atmosphere of our Academy. In corridors, class- rooms, recreation rooms, on stairway landings, in the audi- torium, in the chapel — every- where may be seen statues or pictures of our Blessed Mother, visible proof of the part she plays in Dominican life. Through the Sodality of Our Lady we learn to know her bet- ter, we develop good habits, such OS attending doily Moss and receiving Holy Communion frequently. Devotion to Mary follows the liturgical cycle, cli- maxing in the beautiful and devotional ceremony of the Crowning of the Blessed Virgin in the garden, on May 31, Feast of the Queenship of Mary. (Left): Rochelle Olivier kneels in pray- er before a statue of Our Lady of Fatima, at the yearbook assembly. I hove never found a more perfect way to begin my day, Rochelle declares. ROSARY IN CHAPEL after school is a sodality project in which all students may join. M. Gariepy, M. Messier, A. Fortier, N. Beoulieu ond D.

This spirit runs through all our school life, in the various ac- tivities that find all classes working together on a friendly basis, as well OS in the more serious work of the classroom routine, where cheerful cooperation is the watchword.

Since September, when the yearbook theme was announced, undergraduates declare, we have been trying to keep in step with the seniors in carrying it out. We become more American by participating in our Student Council, which handles everyday situations in a democratic way and encourages us to express our opinions and to be loyal to country and school. We also join in discussions on national problems in debate club. Undergrad sodality units sponsor various projects to bring DA into a closer union with Our Lady and her ideals. All classes have chosen Dominican saints for patrons, and in the daily school routine we attempt to imitate the virtues of our patrons. We feel we have an expressive Dominican spirit, as we get things done by co- operating in a friendly Dominican way. ll ' s American Its Marian It ' s Dominican UNDERGRADUATES A NEW CLASSROOM in the new sec- tion of the building made commercial juniors happy as they began the school year.

JUNIOR YEAR was filled with joyful anticipa- tion of the good things the year would bring, such OS those long-awaited class rings, which we could not have till the second semester, the junior prom during Christmas vacation, and the junior-senior banquet in May. Our homeroom on second floor was the scene of much happy chattering as we planned our projects and the financing of them.

Officers of the various organ zations receive training and experience in demo- cratic leadership, while committee members de- velop responsibility and efficiency as they learn to do by doing. Besides the Sodality, which is occupied in promoting devotion to Mary, all groups join in honoring her, giving a Marian note to every gathering. The Dominican spirit is also evident in extra-curricular activities, as good organization has always been a hallmark of Dominican life, and our truly Dominicon school can blend the various interests, talents, and skills into one harmonious whole, the DA we know and love. ll ' sAmencan Its Marian Its Dominican ACmiTIES Day by day in the school we love, Dominican ALL ROADS LEAD TO DA before 8 15 a.m., as merry groups converge on the three entrances to the school yard.

DA SCHOOL LIFE is a fascinating and wonder- ful adventure in a world all its own — a world in which students and faculty share the loves and friendships, the victories and defeats, the joys and sorrows of the school that has come to be so vital a part of their lives.

A DEMOCRATIC, REPRESENTATIVE group, our Student Coun- cil has become such on essential part of our school life, we almost forget it has been only three years in existence. Com- posed of all class presidents and another representative from every homeroom, the council works earnestly to help DA by clearing up existing problems and by introducing new and helpful features. All students are free to offer suggestions to their councillors or make requests which will be presented to the council for consideration at the regular weekly meeting. THE DOMINICAN WAY, a code of conduct for students, was referred to a committee of councillors and was the subject of several meetings this year. N. Beaulieu and M. Boutin are here seen working out some of the details of the code. WITH SIGHTS SET Marian-high, DA sodalists attempt to moke Christ and Mary better known and loved in their own student surroundings. Through their lit- urgical bulletin boards, weekly calendar of feasts, after-school Rosary, Lenten Silence for the Church of Silence, and other varied projects, sodalists alert students to the full Catholic life that is theirs to live. Realizing that they must possess what they strive to give to others, sodalists work toward their own personal holiness through faith- ful performance of spiritual du- ties, weekly meetings, frequent hours of recollection, and the yearly closed retreat.

Debaters reflect our high scholastic standard if DOMINICAN DEBATERS, newly organized this year, work under the patronage of St. Dominic, who founded the Order of Preach- ers, Dominicans, and therefore knows how to help struggling speakers. Debating has much to offer the serious-minded girl, as it develops ease in public speaking, sound reasoning, interest in current events, poise, confidence, and many other attributes neces- sary to a person seeking success. Our de- baters agree that they are gradually acquir- ing these desirable traits. Debating the Nar- rogonsett League topic. Foreign Aid, we found our record at yearbook deadline to be four victories, one tie, and two defeats, with five more debates to be held. Also at deadline time, debaters were looking for- ward to the highlight of the year, participa- tion in the First Annual Southeastern New England Debate Tournament at Providence College, April 19. Mr. Daniel F. Grace, de- bate coach, arranged several excursions for debaters, including a session of the Fall River Superior Court and a visit to a local radio station.

Chosen by the seniors for this honor be- cause of her interest in history and government and her ability in public speaking, Elaine is a shining example of our famous Dominican Dignity and our truly Dominican enthusiasm. Senior Honors HONOR GRADUATES are a select few, because requirements are exacting. To graduate with honors, a student must have been on the Prin- cipal ' s List for four out of the six marking periods every year of high school. With their goal securely in sight, this group can well smile in anticipation of receiving the gold school key which will be theirs at graduation.

Stella Gamache (left) and Joan Panek are getting experience with the power-driven Rex. SERIOUS SOPHOMORES are ready to open their journal- ism manuals and begin their weekly meeting. This year ' s sophs set a record in the number that tried out for this popular activity. THE ANCHOR, our diocesan weekly, is discussed at journalism meetings. Now in its second year of publication, this paper carries a special column of school news which always attracts the attention of students.

The National Catholic Decency in Reading campaign was held in November this year and brought in a total of $3078. in the fen-day drive to boost the Catholic Press. 64 FROM SEPTEMBER to June, enthusias- tic members of the journalism club meet weekly. Because of the large number trying out for membership this year, the group had to be divided. Juniors meet on Tuesdays, sophomores on Thursdays. Sophs are interested mainly in our NEWSETTE, which is now in its fourth year of successful report- ing. Juniors include yearbook study in their agendo. The annual Publications Conference for Catholic Schools at Merrimack College, North Andover, always attracts a large group of Do- minicans. At this year ' s conference. May 10, senior yearbook staff mem- bers presented their own panel, to give other schools the benefit of their experience in working with a yearbook theme that can contribute to the gen- eral good of the school. JUNIOR JOURNALISTS pause in their idea hunt to listen to something special that Judy Aubrey has found in on exchange yearbook. Trying to moke every successive yearbook better than the last is a challenge that every new class has to meet, and the Class of ' 59 is second to none in determination and in the advantage of on early start. Journalism gains enthusiastic support in DA THE JOURNALISM PARTY, given every June in honor of the DOMINI- LOG staff, is justly called the friendliest night of the year. Skits, song parodies, beautiful decorations, journalism awards, refreshments are traditional features of this party, which Is climaxed by singing and dancing. Mrs. Viola Wilson is always at the piano ready to answer requests for another and still another song, providing an extra gay touch to the already lively gathering. 1958 DOMINILOG - end product of months of planning and working. We little thought, at the first staff meeting in June, 1957, how many hours of work, how many details, how much research, how much writ- ing and re-writing was ahead of us before the final deadline, March 10. We met bi-monthly during sum- mer vacation, writing up senior per- sonals and searching for new and better ideas for pictures. Septem- ber brought the work of detailed photography schedules; October, the ad campaign; December and January, first deadlines for pictures, layouts, art work, and copy. We managed to meet even our final deadline, after which we could re- lax and wait for Class Day, when our so precious DOMINILOG would be delivered into our hands to be loved and cherished long after our wonderful high school days would be only memories. EDITORS Louise Levasseur, Geraldine Moss, and Rochelle Olivier, in the endless search for new ideas. The fruit of our labors -1958 DOMINLOG BUSINESS MANAGER Lucille St. Pierre and assistant, Anita Rousseau, spared neither time nor effort to make our 1958 DOMINILOG a financial success. Their calm and smiling efficiency was a comforting assurance that our yearbook finances were in capable hands, as they were equal to every 66 demand in their difficult task. YEARBOOK TYPISTS must be ready to maintain DOMINILOG standards for submitting well-typed copy to our printer. Muriel Boutin, Diane Cote, and Janet Thiboult are willing to type and re-type till every page is satisfactory. Several girls not pictured here also did typing for the book, notably Lola Remy, who might often be seen at her work on weekends as well as after school. All yearbook workers were encouraged by the announce- ment that the 1957 DOMINILOG hod received the Yearbook of Distinction award from the Cotholic School Press Association.

(Righf): Geroldine Nunes, Rochelle Olivier, Carol Kirkman, Diane Lincourt, Elaine Le- comte. Our athletic program works in complete har- mony with our 1958 theme. Here the American spirit of fair play and regard for the rights of others is the established tradition. When we are in a group or club or game, if we think of our theme we are reminded of how a true American should act. Moreover, so confident are we in the help and protection of Mary, that our teams never go to a game without first gathering in the chapel for the Rosary, and never go out on the court to play without grouping together for at least one Hail Mary. Finally, the joyful, friend- ly Dominican spirit is nowhere more clearly seen than in our intramural and interscholastic sports, where both team and supporters exhibit St, Dominic ' s flaming enthusiasm, yet follow St. Thomas ' rule of reason so well that they are repeatedly singled out by officials for their friendly, co-operative, courteous behavior. It s American It ' s Marian It ' s Dominican ATHLETICS A.A. sponsors well-rounded activity program THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION has an elected membership of thirty-one girls, who work both on the scene and be- hind the scenes to organize, officiate, and provide finan- cial support for all extracurricular sports programs in our school.

Although an annual bowling tourna- ment has been held by A.A. for the past several years, it was decided this year to form a league for all DA students. The result was our 18 team league, with American, Marian and Dominican team names in keeping with this year ' s yearbook theme. BOWLING COMMITTEE: M. Boutin, C. Perry, G. Moss, M. Mich- cud, J.

(R ' ighl): Players ond equip- ment fill the cars, and the teams prepare to depart for o basketball game. Due to this year ' s change in ofPicial rules, and to the unexpected early start of league basketboll, the ever-popular volleyball tournament was played in two halves. The first half was played in the fall, using the old ruks, and the second half in the spring, using new rules. The out- come was still in doubt at deadline time. VARSITY CAPTAIN Hannah Sullivan and Madeleine Gariepy caught In mid-air as they practice layup shots. VARSITY GUARDS Claire Sinotte, Carol Kirkman, and Joan Ponek prove that the defense never rests. Basketball holds lasting values for Dominican AT DOMINICAN, our aim is to have both our Dominican Dignity and a victory at game ' s end. We firmly believe, however, that if we can ' t have both, our dignity is more valuable to us than any vic- tory, and we try to have it always in evidence. Victory was not always ours, but, although only one team can win any game, the concomitant values of participation in sports can be gained by winner and loser alike, and we therefore consider our season a most successful one. The two divisions of the Girls Narry League were merged this year, and DA matched wits and skills with teams from twelve other schools, our varsity achieving a final record of six wins and six losses. Several of the games were close and exciting ones, with one even going into sudden death overtime. An ironic note at season ' s end was that Fairhaven High, tied for League championship, had suffered its only defeat at the hands of DA. Mt.

Cheerleaders promote the best in DA spirit OUR CHEERLEADERS form o pretty picture as they lead the school in cheering during one of the pep rallies which are regularly held on days of games. All rallies featured a constructive pep talk by Miss Walsh, in which she thanked the students for their cooperation and support at the lost game played, and pointed out possible im- provements or corrections, when this was neces- sary. The wholeheorted support she received was evident in the outstanding courtesy of Dominican at games and was o tribute to her enlightened and inspiring leadership. UNIVERSAL LEAGUE. The formation of the Universal League by the ele- ven teams in this year ' s intramural basketball tournament reflected the current interest in space travel. The Eorthmen, Meteors, Comets, Invad- ers, Milky Ways, Jupitonians, Ex- plorers, Sputniks, Spacemen, Van- guards, and Martians played a sin- gle elimination tourney for the school championship. Eighteen girls took the NSGWS oflFicial course in refereeing given by Miss Walsh, and officiated at all of the intra- mural contests.

OUTFITS SPARKLING NEW and shocking blue, plus the ir pep and enthusiasm made our cheer- leaders a big hit with the fans. Throughout the season they could be heard eagerly introducing new cheers or perfecting old ones. They never failed to lend their support at just the right moment, and succeeded admirably in keeping the crowd under control, for enthusiasm should never be allowed to become hysteria. Jeannine Barrette ' s leadership was outstanding as the squad urged not only the basketball teams but also the debaters and the National Catholic Decency in Reading campaign on to victory. fAbovej: Cheerleaders high-step Onward, Dominican, at the Alumi Homecoming game December 30. fteff, ond on opposite pagej THE RAPT ATTENTION given by the students to the cheerleaders during a rally so impressed our photographer that he managed to catch two sections of the group in close-ups. 79 Senior Directory JACQUELINE BARNABY 124 Forrest St., OS 2-1630 JEANNINE BARRETTE 645 Oak Grove Ave., OS 6-8132 ELAINE MALTAIS 237 Crawford St., OS 2-( ELIZABETH MENARD Mooers, New York, 1-04Y2 JOYCE ROGERS 108 RIverview St., OS 2-4992 JACQUELINE ROSS 202 Oliver St., OS 3-6438 NOELLA BEAULIEU 69 Tecumseh St., OS 2-5520 PAULINE BOURASSA 161 Peckham St., OS 4-1334 MURIEL BOUTIN 36 St. James St., OS 4-5844 JANET CHAPDELAINE 434 Division St., OS 4-7687 DIANE COTE 25 Arbor Terrace, No. Tiverton, R.I., OL 4-8879 MARGUERITE DEMERS 624 Eastern Ave., OS 2-3531 YVETTE DURAND 200 O ' Neil Rd., Somerset, OS 2-4750 ELAINE FERREIRA 35 Audet St., No. Tiverton, R.I., OL 4-9156 DORIS FORCIER 445 Lindsey St., OS 4-4435 ANN FORTIER 113 Laphom St., OS 2-6732 BRENDA FRENCH 1435 Main Rd., Central Village, Mass.

In giving us o farewell smile, the Larrivee sisters hold out the familiar signs, seeming to remind us that what was true of our senior year must carry over into all our lives: we are Americans, proud of our heritage, con- scious of our responsibilities; we are children of our heavenly Mother Mary, whom we honor this year of, the Lourdes centenary; we are Dominicans, followers of St. Dominic, heirs of his joyous spirit. Let us carry on our threefold theme of ' 58, and let each of us so live her life that these three characteristics may be apparent, that each one may say of her life, as she was glad to say of her school, It ' s American, lf5__Ma£ian, It ' s Dominican. ;pUBUO THE CLASS OF 1958 iJfBRABY) li s American It ' s Marian FALL RIVER PUBLIC LIBRARY
