Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1962 volume:

N The Modern Knight The boys of Bishop Gibbons High School are known as the Knights . In keeping with this title we have selected to place on the cover of this yearbook what we term the modern knight”. No longer is Christianity defended by men in armor who in times past wielded swords that shattered the efforts of fanatic hordes to subjugate Christian ideals. Indeed, today there still exists an evil power, Communism, which threatens to strangle the world in its crafty clutches. However, the modern knight” is faced with opponents even more menacing than the militant Communists. In this age of tremendous scientific and technological advances a spirit of materialism, akin to the mammon of which Our Lord spoke, threatens to smother the true Christian attitude toward life. Hence, vigilance is a necessary weapon of the present-day warrior” lest he be shackled by this subtle snare. The modern knight” must prepare himself to meet this challenge. First of all, he must direct his allegiance to the one true Sovereignty, the triune God. Moreover, he must try to exemplify in his own life the life of his God, manifested through the Son of God, Christ. To insure the accomplishment of this endeavor, the vassal of God should choose the standard of the cross under which to fight. Furthermore, since the knight of to- day must engage in the campaign of life with his fellowmen, he must render himself a useful member of a complex society by study and research. At all times must his mind be illuminated and guided by the torch of knowledge — knowledge of the things of this world, but more so, knowledge of the things of the next world — so that living by Chris- tian principles he might be a beacon of inspiration to his fellowmen. Thus, he will weave the fabric of his life into an unifying, purposeful pattern in accordance with the inscrip- tion on his coat-of-arms: Ut omnes unum sint” ( that all might be one”) St. Paul the Apostle has very aptly penned words which are indicative of the chival- rous” spirit which should permeate the life of the modern knight”. Take up the armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and stand in all things perfect. Stand, therefore . . . having put on the breastplate of justice, and having your feet shod with the readiness of the gospel of peace, in all things taking up the shield of faith, with which you may be able to quench all the fiery darts of the most wicked one. And take unto you the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit, that is, the word of God. IRISH CHRISTIAN BROTHERS 1 • ; • - -J - s V-. ' ' ■ . y'...’ ;'u- 'i. . ■ . - ■'-v;- i . . J, v ’ • .

Scully, Bishop of the Albany Diocese. Throughout his years of service, Bishop Scully has shown a spirit of dedica- tion and unceasing interest to the entire Albany Diocese. It is to this spirit that Bishop Gibbons High School owes its very existence. In 1957, Bishop Scully initiated a program designed to provide the Sche- nectady area with a central Catholic high school for young men. He labored long and hard to sustain the advance of the program. He gave unsparingly of his time and talents until, in 1958, the program reached its ultimate goal with the opening of Bishop Gibbons High School. One might think that after the school had been built, the Bishop would be content to let the institution grow and progress on its own. This, however, was not the case with Bishop Scully. Since the school’s opening, he has followed carefully its progress, and has worked right along with the faculty and students, helping to make the school a successful institution. He has even sacrificed time from his busy schedule to attend several of the school’s more important functions. It is fitting, therefore, that the students of Gibbons, particularly the seniors, take advantage of this opportunity to express their thanks to Bishop William A. Scully. To His Excellency, we pledge our prayers for a long and fruitful reign. MOST REVEREND William A. Scully, D.D. BISHOP OF ALBANY 8 9 Most Reverend Edmund F. Gibbons, D.D. TITULAR BISHOP OF VERBE RETIRED 6th BISHOP OF ALBANY PRINCIPAL F A C U L T Y The Congregation of the Christian Brothers of Ireland was founded in 1802 in Waterford, Ireland, by one Edmund Ignatius Rice. At the time the Congregation was founded, formal education was illegal in Ireland. Edmund Rice founded the Irish Christian Brothers to assist the man who was poor in spirit and poor intellectually — that is, to help him realize his individual potentials. Through the years, the Congregation of the Christian Brothers of Ireland, in keeping with the objectives of Brother Rice, has grown and expanded. An example of such expansion is Bishop Gibbons High School. In 1957, at the request of Bishop William A. Scully, both Reverend Father Robert Cronin, pastor of St. Paul the Apostle’s Church, and Monsignor William C. Keane, pastor of St. Luke’s Church, assumed leadership of a drive to raise funds for the construction of a central Catholic high school in Schenectady.- Due to their hard work, to the able guidance of Bishop Scully, and to the unswerving support of the Schenectady-area Catholics, the doors of Bishop Gibbons High School were opened for the first time on September 2, 1958. At that time there were one hundred fifty-eight students, and a faculty of only four Brothers. In four short years, Gibbons has grown to a student enrollment of seven hundred fifty, and the Knights” are now well known in the Schenectady area. The faculty too has increased its numbers, now boasting a total of nineteen Brothers and four lay teachers. As mentioned before, the Gibbons Knight” is no longer new and in- experienced. Thanks chiefly to the unceasing efforts of the faculty, he has matured into a competent, confident individual. It is fitting now for the full- fledged Knight” of Gibbons to reflect upon his years at Bishop Gibbons High School, and to extend his gratitude to all members of the faculty who have aided him in any way. To be sure, the faculty at Gibbons is constantly striving to further the formal education of youth. But in addition to this, each faculty member is always ready and willing to do whatever he can to guide his students onto the right path. Through his example, interest, and understanding each faculty member at Gibbons has helped to bring out qualities of leadership, initia- tive, honesty, perseverance, and good living in each Knight”. For these, and the countless other services rendered to us at Gibbons by the faculty, we, the Class of 1962, will always be greatly indebted. We sincerely thank each faculty member for his guidance and understanding, and we hope that the Class of ’62 will always be able to measure up to the standards set by the faculty for us here at Bishop Gibbons High School. 13 BR.

Bishop Gibbons should well be proud of the Class of 1962 for this group is its first graduating class. The graduates should well be proud of Bishop Gibbons because from it they have learned many things. It has given them an education in the things of the world and it has taught them how to live as good Catholic men. When the seniors watched the dedication of the school in September, 195 8, they knew little about the Christian Brothers of Ireland and most of them did not know the value of a Catholic training. They entered a school which would be expected to produce great things. It was up to these freshmen, the present seniors, to make the name of Bishop Gibbons synonymous with the entire development of the whole man — both body and soul. As a result of its untiring efforts, the Class of 1962 has made Gibbons a symbol of outstanding scholastic achievement and of great athletic ability; and, above all, a place where the neighboring Catholic boy can obtain a firm and solid foundation in the virtues which his teachers so expressly exemplify. Indeed, we seniors are proud of Bishop Gibbons and the fine educational training which we have received. Thus, as each of us goes our own way into the walks of life, we are confident that we will be able to cope with the chal- lenging problems that will present themselves. And so after four very important and necessary years we bid farewell to Bishop Gibbons High School, now our Alma Mater. However, before we leave to make a success of our lives else- where, we wish once again to express our gratitude and to ask God's blessing on our Alma Mater so that it may continue its tremendous work on behalf of youth. s k PERIODIC TABLE OF THE ELEME A r f .-TJsfaiw I B C 'i K VI • — ■ '« ■ ;.;IS w ' HUM iff.

It is they who form the majority of its students. Bishop Gibbons relies on them to support its social, cultural, and athletic functions. They, in turn, rely on the school to provide them with the expert training, guidance, and knowledge that it has given to the Senior Class. The seniors leave to the underclassmen a tradition of great scholastic, athletic, and spiritual achievement which they so faithfully tried to instill into Bishop Gibbons. They worked earnestly in the class room at their extra- curricular activities, and as a result, have made Gibbons a symbol of great triumphs in various fields of accomplishment. It is this success that is left to these young Knights. They must continue the admirable beginnings of Bishop Gibbons and mold it into an even more noteworthy school, strengthening its name in all its areas of endeavor. Whether Bishop Gibbons does become a better school rests in the hands of the under- classmen, who will be the future leaders in its scholastic enterprises and in its athletic contests. We are confident that these forthcoming seniors will realize their heritage and seek to make Bishop Gibbons even greater.

The school fully realizes that the modern student must become acquainted with many aspects of life. He must have an interest in many different and varied activities if he is to be well-rounded. It is for this development of the whole man” that the extra-curricular program at Gibbons has been established. These activities at Gibbons are many. There are activities for nearly every interest of the student. If he is musically inclined, there is the school Band and Glee Club. If he is a camera enthusiast, he may join the Photography Club. A student may become a member of the Forensic Society if he wishes to debate and to develop his speaking voice. Through the Library, Math, Chemistry, Biology, Radio and Electronics, and Astronomy Clubs their members can pursue these interests. Indeed, Bishop Gibbons does have many extra-curricular activities to offer to its students. Through these the man at Gibbons can develop his talents to the fullest and become a well-rounded, modern Knight.” LEGION OF MARY The Legion of Mary at Bishop Gibbons High School is just one small part of a world- wide organization founded to further the cause of Our Blessed Mother by apostolic works. It has been in operation at Gibbons for two years and already has left its mark. Each week members are assigned apos- tolic works which take up an hour of their time or more. Their works consist in teach- ing catechism, working at St. Clare’s and Ellis Hospitals, visits to the Ingersoll Home for the Aged Men, and other related works. Officers of the Legion of Mary are Brother J. J. O'Connell, Spiritual Director; Mr. Gosh, President; Mr. Macariello, Vice President; James Winkler, Secretary; and Wendell Lorang, Treasurer. Richard Moran and Mark Stevens assist Fr. Cox in celebrating the holy sacrifice of the Mass on first Friday. James Winkler teaches catechism to some children at the Sunnyview Rehabilitation Center. 84 Seated: David Druzba, Paul LaFleur, Terry VanValkenburgh, Wendell Lorang, James Winkler, Timothy Motala, Keith Lawrence, Mark Stevens.

The Crosier In the beginning of September I960, preparations were made to initiate and put into effect a student publica- tion. It was decided that a four-page newspaper would be best, and after a contest among the students the paper was christened the Crosier. The crosier is a staff which sym- bolizes the Bishop's office. Since the name of the school is Bishop Gibbons, the choice was appropriate. At first, the newspaper was printed by a local printing company. However, this year the Crosier was printed by an offset machine, operated by the school. In addition to producing the school paper, the staff members distribute these to the students. Moreover, the staff maintains a constant flow of mutual trading with other school publications throughout the land. The mail- ing staff sends papers as far as Montana and California and is justly proud of this trading of ideas with distant friends. The Crosier, which is moderated by Br. J. J. O'Connell, hopes that it has started an unceasing tradition in Bishop Gibbons — one that will grow with the progress of our school.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is an organization of stu- dents, elected by students, to serve as their official representatives in all matters of student concern to the school. It provides a medium through which stu- dent opinion may be heard, and a forum for the con- sideration of common school problems. Many ideas originating in the student body are discussed and debated by their representatives in the Student Council. Here the good ideas are sifted from the impractical ones and are put into effect. By this interchange of ideas, it is hoped that a keener percep- tion and a deeper insight into methods of govern- ment will be gained by those participating. Our Student Council aims at giving a lesson in active citizenship. Any governing body is effective only insofar as its citizens recognize their duties as well as their privileges. Our Council is confident that it will be supported in all its undertakings by the en- tire student body. Br. Barry, the moderator, discusses a point with Alan Mata- razzo (Junior Vice President). 88 Peter Marx delivers his campaign speech. Tenors: Front Row: S. Hogan, T. Kayser, E. Olsen, J. Burke, R.

J.A. van Koolbergen (Mod- erator) Mr. Carmen Sgarlata (Director). An important part of the extra-curricular activities at Bishop Gibbons High School is the school Glee Club. Like the many other activities at Gibbons the Glee Club offers, through some hard but rewarding work, relaxa- tion, enjoyment, some opportunities to travel and justifi- able pride. The Glee Club, founded in 1958 at the commence- ment of Bishop Gibbons’ first academic year, has grown from approximately fifty members to one hundred and fifty members. The first moderator was Bro. C. A. Mur- phy, who was succeeded by Bro. A. E. d’Adamo and its present moderator and director, Bro. J. A. van Koolber- gen. Highlights of the Glee Club activities have been rep- resentations of Gibbons for the past three years at the An- nual Albany Diocese Catholic High School Music Festival and Christmas shows and annual school musicales. The Glee Club has also sponsored an annual spring concert — the one held in the spring of 1961 being of particular notice. Indeed, the Glee Club has added to the cultural advancement of Bishop Gibbons. Bases: Front Row: J. Moseman, J. Fluty, P. Schofield, J. Torre, R. Stella, B. Sheridan, J. Cahill. Back Row: J.

BAND The Bishop Gibbons High School band, organized in 1959 by Brother C. A. Mur- phy, has increased from thirty members in its first year to fifty in its third year. Brother Murphy and the band directors, Mr. Henry Toregan and Mr. Jack Prit- chard, deserve great credit for developing a band as excellent as we have today. It is hard to believe that several of the boys had never played any musical instrument before they studied with our school band! The school has been very proud of its band on parade on various occasions dur- ing its three years and there is no doubt in anyone’s mind that the rousing tune of their Maroon and Gold” helped bring home several football victories! In con- junction with the Glee Club, the band has presented a Christmas program and a very well-received Annual Concert each year. This Spring of 1962 will see our boys resplendent in the new uniforms which the Bishop Gibbons Mothers’ Club has worked to provide for their boys at Gib- bons. Saxophones: Left to Right: H.

MUSICALE One of the dance groups shows us some fancy dancin’ ” — country style. A tradition begun by our first graduating class has been and continues to be the Spring Musicale. Based pri- marily on group talent, the shows for the first three years were directed by Mr. Joseph Hayes. Under his capable guidance and due to his extraordinary ability to extract deep- rooted talent from the participants, the shows kept attract- ing larger crowds each year. The first production was entitled Take Time Out”, and was followed by Take It From The Top” and Take A Chance . This year the production was entitled Bits of Hits”, under the able direction of Mr. Carmen Sgarlata. The show featured well-known songs from television, the movies and Broadway. In addition, renditions were given of A1 Jolson's long-remembered songs, including Mammy and Rock-a-by My Baby . Moreover, humor was included in the form of comedy skits. Of course, no consideration of the musicale would be complete without mentioning the driving force behind the smash success of the shows — this impetus being provided by the Fathers’ Club. The shows have truly been a coopera- tive effort between the acting of the students and the cam- paigning of these wonderful fathers. 92 The Gibbons Sockettes”, mimicking the professional Rockettes, kick to — Front Row: T.

FORENSIC SOCIETY An important part of Gibbons’ tradi- tion is the Forensic Society. This cultural organization is divided into two sections — debating and public speaking. Started in September of 1959, under the able leadership of Br. R. H. Turnbull, the Forensic Society has progressed rad idly, and has a large membership. This year Mr. James McDermott, a lay teacher at Bishop Gibbons, became moderator of the Club. This activity trains the students in poise and helps to develop self-assurance. The Forensic Society is just one of the many phases of life at Bishop Gibbons which helps to develop maturity in the student and to prepare him for life in the world of tomorrow. Ronald Ratchford delivers his speech before the school audience. 93 Mr. James McDermott in- troduces the speakers during one of the oratorial contests. LE CERCLE FRANCAIS The French Club sponsors a Mardi Gras dance. Le Cercle Francais was inaugurated during the past school year in Bishop Gibbons High School under the capable and faithful guidance of Brother J. X. Dunphy. The prime purpose of the society is to stim- ulate the interest of the students in the French lan- guage. The principal achievements of Le Cercle Francais in its first year of operation have been laying the foun- dation and writing the constitution. In the future, the activities of the society will include the showing of sl.de: cf France and French culture, advanced work in the modern language laboratory and lectures given by noted French linguists in the area. Le Cercle Francais is sure to be a real credit to Bishop Gibbons High School. Left to Right: D. Chis- holm (Vice President), S. Reilly (Secretary), M. Ba- luck (President), J. Villa (Treasurer), Br.

James Furlong Miss Van Epps (Librarian) LIBRARY CLUB The library, which was started during the first year of the school, has been a real factor in bringing en- lightenment to all students. This would not have been accomplished, however, without the assistance of our librarian, Miss Van Epps and her four assistants Peter Coladipietro, Henry Curley, James Furlong and John Aernecke plus the help of the Library Club. Since the beginning of the library, the number of books on the shelves has doubled and the books have increased in variety and scope. The Library Club has been both helpful and instrumental in obtaining this objective. The work of the Library Club includes processing, shelving and repairing the books, keeping records of circulation and fines, and the general up- keep of the library. The members of the Library Club have enjoyed fulfilling their duties and hope that their assistance has been helpful to all. G. Smith, E. English, R. Grant, P. Coladipietro. 95 J. Martin, R.

The yearbook is a mirror which enables every senior to look back into the past, and review his years in high school. In years to come when the senior will have aged, the tendency to rem- inisce will have become more pro- nounced and will then be a source of contentment and satisfaction. With this thought in mind, our yearbook staff presents the first edition of the Knight”. The yearbook staff is headed by James Statt and Michael Deegan. Brother J. B. Jarkowsky is the mod- erator of the Knight”, and it is only through his unselfish efforts and able guidance that; the first Gibbons year- book has become a reality. The staff wishes to thank the other individuals who contributed to the 1962 edition of the Bishop Gibbons Knight”.

Started in 1958 under the direction of Br. A. E. Newman, the club grew rapidly, and in I960 when Br. J. J. O’Connell became moder- ator, it had about sixteen members. In September of 1961 Br. J. B. Jar- kowsky took over the club. For two years now the Photography Club has worked with the school’s newspaper, the Crosier. This year, the club has been closely affiliated with the year- book staff, producing many of the pictures for this yearbook. PHOTOGRAPHY Daniel Brazell, Richard Cooke.

The General Science Club was formed to give a deeper insight into the topics of general science for students of the proper ability and interest. For the most part, the principles involved are illus- trated with electronic equipment obtained from the General Electric Company. In- cidentally, General Electric also supplies the personnel for the Schenectady Science Seminar, organized by the Brothers and Dr. Leon St. Pierre of the Research Lab- oratory for the high school students of the city. Some experiments given this year are: using an electronic swdtch for inductance and capacitance phase shift with variable frequency, using a dual-beam oscilloscope and its amplifier for sympathetic reso- nance of a tuning fork, and using the pin- method for finding the image’s distance behind a mirror. All experiments are ex- plained in view of the beauty” involved. GENERAL SCIENCE CLUB Jim Thompson and Vincent DeFazzio help to illustrate wave phenomena with a stroboscope. 100 ASTRONOMY CLUB The members of the astronomy club prepare to observe a transit of the planet Mercury. M. Collins, W. Hebert, G. JLorang, T. Mortka, R. Rej, D. James. Michael Collins and Milton Zapolski discuss a facet of astronomy as Br. A.E. Newman looks on. The Astronomy Club began in Sep- tember, 1959, with Br. A. E. Newman as moderator. On October 1, 1959, three club members went on an eclipse expedition to Boston. Although the eclipse was rained out and little seemed accomplished, club members brought the prestige of Bishop Gibbons with them. They were the only participants from all the Schenectady high schools. Later in the year, the club observed a lunar eclipse on the nights of March 12-13, I960, outside the school. They slept overnight and sent in a report to the paper. That summer Milton Zapol- ski was chosen for a scholarship course in astronomy at the Hayden Planetar- ium by the National Science Founda- tion. During the next year, the club made local history when it observed a transit of the planet Mercury on November 7, I960. They sent in their timings to Sky and Telescope magazine and thus made a contribution to science. They went on a field trip to New York City and to the RPI Radio Astronomy Lab- oratory. In 1962 the club observed a few oc- cultationsand made another trip to New York City. The club members are pres- ently making six inch reflecting tele- scopes for private use and are also at work on a 100-foot solar telescope which they will present to the school. Under the leadership of their benef- icent moderator, Br. A. E. Newman, the club’s endeavors will continue to ap- proach the very sky they are studying. 101 MATH CLUB M. Deegan (Secretary), G. Dugan (Vice President), P. Ross (President). The purpose of a club is to inspire to a greater degree its members with a desire to become more fully acquainted with the subject of the organization. It was for this end that the Mathematics Club at Bishop Gibbons was estab- lished. The Club was founded so that the Knights at Gib- bons could become more proficient in the various aspects of mathematics which particularly interest them. Composed of members from all the four years, the Math Club offers to its members a basis from which they can more comprehen- sibly explore the field of mathematics. During the past year such topics as Boolean algebra, symbolic logic, computer mathematics, topology and non-Euclidean geometry were presented and discussed by the students. Furthermore, a team, selected from among the Math Club members, competed in various diocesan and inter- scholastic mathematics contests. To all who have joined it, the Math Club has proven a great benefit. Through it, the students can understand mathematics to a fuller degree and consequently the Math Club at Gibbons has fulfilled its pur- pose. Members of the Math Club attend one of the weekly meetings. 102 T. Salamone, J. Gibney, R. Rej, G. Dugan, R. Murphy, G. Davenport. CHEMISTRY CLUB The actual beginning of the Chemistry Club was in the second year of the existence of the high school. All the members were instructed in the basic fundamentals of chem- istry for a year, and performed simple experi- ments illustrating them. After this elementary instruction in the second year of the club, the members were given individual projects to build, to run and to report on. Some of these projects were the distribution of a solid between two immisci- ble liquids, determination of eutectic points and polarography. During its first and second years the club was moderatored by Br. A. E. Newman. This year Br. J. B. Jarkowsky took over that posi- tion. Mention should be made here of the assistance received from Mr. Robert Baritou, a research chemist from General Electric. Mr. Baritou has generously given of his time on Saturday mornings to help the club members with their projects. James Gibney and Thomas Salamone work on a phase experiment in eutectics. 103 Br. A. E. Newman conducts a class in morse code for (front row) T. Halwachs, D. Lemmerman, T. Mortka, R. Brion; (back row) G. Morris, F. Decatur, F. Decatur, T. Sears, M. Rosenkranz. If you pass by the physics lab and hear a series of strange and unintelligible sounds, you can be sure that the radio club is trying to contact a new station. The radio club was initiated and con- tinues to function under the direction of Bro. A. E. Newman. The station was com- pleted on December 24, 1961 and was li- censed under the call WA2TDK. The club now consists of twenty members with eight operators. Contacts have been made with South America, Canada, and all parts of the United States. During the week the members study morse code and on Saturdays they study radio theory under the guidance of Mr. R. T. Watters who works as an electronic engineer at the General Electric Research Lab. The radio station consists of a Jognson Viking Challenger transmitter running 65 watts on radiotelephone and the re- ceiver is a Hammarlund HQ-110”. The antenna is located on the roof of the school. The officers of the club are as follows: President, Paul Laska; Secretary, Tom Mortka; Treasurer, Mike Cornaire. RADIO CLUB Dr. Robert Watters gives Paul Laska some technical information re- garding the use of the oscilloscope. 104 Car 54, where are you? asks Joe Dubner as Bill Gauthier and John Lefebvre wait for an acknowl- edgment of the call. BIOLOGY CLUB Referring to a model heart, John Phillips carries on a discussion of the circula- tory system with James Moffett, Robert Gronan, and Douglas Dickens. Tick, man, tick! says Gerald Smith as Peter Schofield manipulates the stetho- :ope. John Boyle looks skeptical Br. P.B. Lane Moderator The Biology Club, under the direc- tion of Brother Lane, is now in its third year at Gibbons. However, it did not become active until last year when many of its members participated in the school science fair. This year several projects have been started. Bob Gronan and John Boyle are working on nutrition, while Bob Rufer and Pete Schofield are experi- menting with antibiotics. Paul Laska is working on a quick freeze method of preserving animals. The club is also planning to go on some trips to the General Electric Research Lab and the Museum of Natural History in New York. The officers of the club are: Douglas Dickens, president; Bob Gronan, vice- president; Jim Moffett, Secretary; and John Phillips, treasurer. P. Laska, J. Cahill, R. Rufer, J.

With this theme in mind, the Van Curler’s ball- room was changed into the enchanting island paradise of Bali Ha’i” under the direc- tion of Brother d'Adamo. The center of attraction was a nine foot wading pool, spanned by a golden rose-covered bridge. One hundred two couples danced to the music of the Siena Collegians. But Juniors become Seniors, so Gibbons will soon have its initial Senior Ball. Tentative arrangements, under Brother O’Neill’s direction, have set the date for June 22, 1962, at the Edison Club. Again the Siena Collegians will provide the delightful melodies. The second Junior Class has followed the precedent and held its Junior Prom at tfie Hotel Van Curler on April 23, 1962. The Steve Anthony Orchestra furnished the music for the dancing pleasure of all. All dance to the music of the Siena Collegians. The Grand March takes place.

MOTHERS’ CLUB The Mothers’ Club of Bishop Gibbons, which has been active since our school opened its doors in 1958, has been and still is a major organization which has contributed to the success and beauty of our school. The object of the Mothers’ Club is to do every- thing it can to further the welfare of the students and the school. In only four short years the mothers have succeeded tremendously in their objective by furnishing curtains for the classrooms, buying din- ner ware for the cafeteria, preparing hot lunches for the students, and buying uniforms for our marching school band. The Mothers’ Club has also, for the past four years, held an annual Card Party and Tea, which have turned out to be two of the largest public events of their kind held in this city. We students realize the time and effort put forth by the mothers in trying to better our school and they have our sincere thanks for a successful accomplishment. The acting abilities of many of the mothers were demonstrated in a Christmas play which they produced. 108 FATHERS’ CLUB Jfficers of the Fathers' Club (Left to Right) : Mr. Joseph Flynn (Historian), Mr. Joseph Winkler President), Mr. Walter Hunter (Secretary), Mr. George Lutz (Treasurer).

Ever since its beginning in 1958, the Bishop Gib- bons Fathers’ Club has been an integral part of the life of the school. Through its many projects, neces- sary funds for needed equipment have been raised. The Fathers’ Club is a union of the dads of the Knights” at Bishop Gibbons. Through it, these men can become acquainted with one another and also get a greater insight into the academic, spiritual, and cultural life of Bishop Gibbons. The Brothers take an active part in the Fathers’ Club, helping it as much as possible. The main activity of the Bishop Gibbons Fathers’ Club has been the sponsorship of the Annual Musicale, a production undertaken by the students at the school during the spring of each year. Through the soliciting of advertisements, the Fathers’ Club has been able to help Gibbons defray the cost of many major necessi- ties. Last year’s funds were used to purchase a new language laboratory. The previous musicales have helped Bishop Gibbons secure equipment for the chemistry and physics laboratories and outfit and equip the various athletic teams at the school. We wish to thank the Bishop Gibbons Fathers’ Club and we wish it continuous success in all its en- deavors to make Gibbons a more fully equipped school and provide it with the major necessities it may need. Mr. Stevens, Mr. Winkler, Mr. Daly and young Daly pose for the camera-man after lining the football field for a Saturday game. 109 s p In the past four years, the Gibbons Knights” have matured from fumbling fledglings to well-rounded individuals. Their advances spiritually and mentally have been accompanied by an equal advance physically. The year 1958 saw the beginning of Bishop Gibbons High’s athletic career for it was in that year that our first teams competed with other schools in spons competitions. Though the frosh of '58 were faced with a very difficult job, they succeeded in putting Gibbons on the athletic map. In addition, they laid the goundwork for the roadway to real athletic success. Now, three school years later, Gibbons can look upon its athletes with pride for they are indeed mighty Knights . Thanks to the faculty, the coaches, and to God, the Knights” have improved their athletic prowess, so that they are now one of the big powers in the Albany Diocese. In this section of the Knight we hope to present an over-all picture of the' athletic scene at Gibbons. In addition, we would like to reveal the efforts made by our students to become physically competent Knights . T S Ill CROSS COUNTRY VARSITY CROSS COUNTRY TEAM Front Row: A. Matarazzo, P. Marx, T.

VARSITY FOOTBALL Bishop Gibbons — with its first senior class — opened its first football season with a tie against Glens Falls. The action started when end Paul McDermott intercepted a pass and raced 93 yards for the first Gibbons touchdown of the season. A strong finish by Glens Falls in the final minutes of the game tied the score at 6 to 6. The second outing of the Knights” against Cardinal McCloskey saw powerful half-back Jim Merryweather pace the Gibbons attack to a 19 to 6 victory. Bob Lique also scored a touchdown along with Merryweather’s two TD's. Unlucky Three held true as the Knights” lost their first game of the season to Catholic Central in a 6 to 2 verdict. The Gibbons score came on a safety, while in the fading minutes of the game Catholic Central’s half-back ran around the right side of the line to score the only TD of the game. Gibbons struck back to upset favorite C.B.A. in its fourth outing to gain a tie for first place half-way through the season. Jim Merry- weather and Bob Lique started the scoring in the first half with Jack Daly putting on the finishing touches with a scoring pass to Paul Mc- Dermott. C.B.A. broke through in the third quarter and reached pay- dirt for the first and only time. The game ended with a score of 20-7. In the next three contests Gibbons bowed to LaSalle (6-7) to Vincentian (7-12) and to Manchester (8-14). In all three games the touchdowns were captured by James Merryweather.

V FOOTBALL Taking the field on October 2, 1961, for the first time this year our team came through with a 6-6 tie against Cardinal McCloskey. For three quarters neither team hit paydirt; then Cardinal McCloskey connected for 6 points. Not one to give up easily, our team came back fast to tie up the game in the closing seconds on a sweeping end run by Garry DeMeo, our sure-footed half-back. On October 9, Bishop Gibbons’ J.V.'s copped their first win of the season over Catholic Central, 13-6. Knight” Bill Thwaits opened the scoring in the first period by go- ing 10 yards through the middle. After Catholic Central scored in the third quarter, Gibbons got tough, forcing Catholic Central back to their own end zone. Guard Joe Ozarowski recovered a fumble there for a touchdown. Quar- terback Paul DiCocco iced the game with his point after the touchdown. Facing a strong opponent, the Knights” proved stronger when they tackled C.B.A. of Albany. From the first quarter when Bill Thwaits raked over his second touchdown of the year, C.B.A. knew they were beaten. Following Bill Thwaits’ example, Dom Tebano plowed up the middle for the second score of the game. Quarterback Ken LeGere finished C.B.A. off with his brilliant end run from 25 yards out to score the final Knights’ ” touchdown. Gibbons won 20-0. The J-V Knights” took over first place in the Diocesan League with a 21-12 win over LaSalle Institute at Empire Raceway in Menands. Dom Tebano added another touch- down to his total when he opened the scoring early in the first quarter. Jerry Desmond went around end from 15 yards out to score the second TD. Finally, Joe Dunphy snagged a pass in the end zone for the third TD. Paul DiCocco, Jerry Desmond and Dom Tebano each scored extra points. The young Knights” captured the Diocesan League championship with a 12-0 whitewash over Vincentian In- stitute on the home gridiron. Jerry Desmond skirted end for 20 yards and a touchdown, and Ken LeGere romped 80 yards to paydirt with a pass interception to account for the Knights’ ” points. The Knights suffered their one and only setback of the season when they lost to Linton. Heavily outclassed, the Knights put up a good fight and held the Lintonaires down to 27 points. The final outcome of the game was a 27-0 score. Nevertheless, valuable experience and a win- ning record (4-1-1) were gained. Ken LeGere (15) races down the sideline for a TD. 119 The freshman team of Bishop Gibbons opened its season against Scotia. Gaining experience with each play the outmatched Knights” nearly triumphed. The score was 7-0 when Dom Tebano the Knights” half- back skirted right end for the first of two Gibbons touchdowns. The extra point was also made by Dom Tebano. The second Knight” touchdown came in answer to a hard jabbing Gibbons offense which netted itself a touchdown and an extra point. Again the touchdown feat for Gibbons was performed by Dom Tebano, with John Willis going into the end zone for the point after touchdown. Time ran out for Gibbons when the Scotians again scored in the clos- ing seconds to make the final score: Gibbons— 14, Scotia— 21. The Knights” seeking to avenge their previous defeat took the lead in the opening minute and never relinquished it. The Knights’ ” first touchdown of the game was scored by John Willis, the half-back, on a middle of the line push. The point after the touch- down was scored by Dom Tebano, the Knights’ ” other half-back. Gibbons scored again in the second and third quarters on quick end runs by Dom Tebano. John Willis made the extra point to bring Gibbons’ score to 20. The only time the McCloskey yearlings scored was late in the first quarter. The game ended with a score of 20 for Gibbons and 6 for McCloskey. Dom Tebano (13) plunges through the defense. Was he brought down or wasn't he? FRESHMAN FOOTBALL Front Row: P. Doolin, L.

Instructor Among the purposes of a physical education program are the develop- ment of strong, healthy bodies and good coordination, in addition to bring- ing the students in contact with the various sports. Under the guidance of Mr. John Verra, this is achieved at Bishop Gibbons through a program of rigorous calisthenics and participation in the more popular American sports. While passing the gym on almost any winter day, the success of Mr. Verra’s efforts can be seen in the quiet, uniform system of exercises and the active, noisy basketball games. Truly, the gym pro- gram helps Bishop Gibbons to fulfill its dedication towards making its boys physically as well as mentally fit. Crawling beasts from outer space? No, they’re only Gibbonites” doing their weekly pushups. 127 VARSITY Front Row: J. Hcctus, V. Olechnowicz, M. Yeomans, P. Me- mowicz (Mgr.). Missing: J. Buttridge, F. Sindoni, D. Dawsey. Dermott, R.

They started against Vincentian Inst, in the tough Diocesan League where they looked better than ever behind big Jack Chlopecki with 18 points as they captured the opener 74-53. Our first home game added the second victory as we downed Keveny 83-33 with Tom Curcio, right guard, scoring 12 points — all in the first quarter. We faltered in the third game losing to La Salle Inst. 48-64. Never- theless, Jack Buttridge and Steve Reilly hooped 16 and 15 points re- spectively. Game four found us at C.B.A. where we came up with our third win. Paul McDermott and Jack Chlopecki netted 15 and 13 points respectively to add to the final score of 46-41. We invaded Mohonasen High for our fifth game and came home with a 59-48 win. Speedy Steve Reilly canned 24 to lead the team to its fourth victory. Along came the Christmas holidays and the first Linton Basketball Tournament. We won our first game 58-46 over Rome Free Academy and were defeated by Linton High 81-62 in the second game. Steve Reilly’s 19 and 26 points led the way in both games for the Knights”. Our eighth game found us upset by league leader Cardinal Mc- Closkey — 59-61 — even though we had three Knights” in double figures — Reilly (21), McDermott (13), and Buttridge (12). A fired up Gibbons team surprised the visiting Mont Pleasant quintet by upsetting the Red Raiders 55-51. Floor general Steve Reilly led the winners with 17 points. Jack Buttridge and Paul McDermott hooped 16 and 12 points. January 19, saw Catholic Central fall victim to the Knights” 55- 33 behind Reilly’s 17 and Jack Buttridge’s 14 points. With four Knights” hitting double figures we downed V.I. for the second time of the season 76-51. Reilly, Chlopecki, Curcio, and McDermott netted 15, 14, 13, and 13 points respectively. Keveny did not fare any better when they suffered their second loss at the hands of the Knights 78-31. Jack Chlopecki gained 20 points as high scorer of the match. In our next encounter we tasted defeat at the hands of La Salle Inst. 63-68 in a battle of league leaders. Chlopecki and Buttridge led the Knights” with 24 and 16 points. Springing back we downed C.B.A. 53-42 for our tenth win against four losses. Steve Reilly and Jack Chlopecki combined for 25 points (15 and 10) to pace the victors. Victory was short lived when Cardinal McCloskey stopped us for the second time of the season 47-65. This loss put us out of the pen- nant race for league honors. Reilly again led the way with 19 hoops. Mont Pleasant pinned a 56-70 win over us in our sixteenth game to make our record one of 10 wins and 6 losses. Backcourt ace Reilly added 18 more points to his total. Mohonasen fell victim to the Knights” a second time 63-55. John Hectus lit the spark with five baskets in a row at the start of the third quarter to move away with the game. Gibbons placed four men in double figures with Tom Curcio’s 19 counters topping the well-balanced offense. Paul McDermott had 12, Jack Buttridge tossed in 11, and John Hectus added the big ten. Gibbons’ five won over Catholic Central 40-29 in one of the lowest scoring games of the season. The win was the Knights’ ” 12th of the season in 18 starts which gave them an 8-4 record in the Diocesan League. Big Jack Chlopecki led the attack with the only double - figure performance of the game with 15 points. And so, at the end of the season the Knights” could boast to a 12-6 record.

We were the first team to start the spring cam- paign with a trip to New York City for the Iona Relays. The following week found us at the Penn Relays. Both meets gave the members of the team much needed experi- ence. In this area we came up with three dual-meet wins and one loss. In the Saratoga Springs Invitational we placed sixth out of ten schools, with the medley relay team tak- ing first for our best showing. Outstanding juniors, now present seniors, who helped make this season successful were: Jerry Millett (100 yard dash); Jerry Gorecki (220 yard dash); Steve Reilly (440 yard run); Dave Wallingford (880 yard run); Peter Marx and Dave Ring (mile run); Skip Napier (low hurdles); Tom Lutz and Larry Altieri (pole vault); Bob Dingee (shotput); Jerry Gorecki and Dug Chisholm (broad jump); John Hectus and Joe Vacca (high jump); Ed Celmer, Paul LeFleur, Larry Al- tieri and Skip Napier (relays). 135 John Hectus is caught in the act of high jumping.

BASEBALL In the spring of 1961, the Bishop Gibbons baseball team took on its first full varsity schedule. The Knights” were ably coached by Mr. Bob Frederick, well known in area pitching circles. Working with a seniorless” team Mr. Frederick was able to make the Knights a team to respect, chiefly because of the hustle and desire shown by the young team. The Knights played a full schedule of fourteen games — twelve were played against Diocesan League teams and two against Linton H.S. Gibbons' biggest victory came when it defeated the perennial league champion, La Salle Institute, by a score of 2 to 1. After their showing of last year the Knights of Bishop Gibbons will be one of the main contenders for the Diocesan League crown.

GOLF Bishop Gibbons students look forward to a most successful season on the links in 1962 with the return to action of the entire varsity squad from last year. Jim Duval, who excelled last year, capturing championships at Stamford and Stadium golf clubs, and ably supported by his brother Bob, will lead a strong squad into league competition. Also returning are Mike Handron, a capable third man, Terry Van Valkenburgh and Bruce Fenger. These three did a capable job last year and, profiting by their experiences, should lend valuable assistance this year. The schedule includes not only our league opponents but such perennial powers as Linton and Mt. Pleasant. There are feelers out for matches with Cranwell, Bergen and Farley. We hope to compete against the best. Long drives and dropped putts will be the order of the day. 139 Jim Duval demonstrates the form which makes him the number one player on the golf team.

TENNIS Bishop Gibbons was open for schooling in 1958, and in early spring of 1959 tennis was organized. Since its beginning the team has matured greatly and in the 1961 sea- son finished second in League com- petition. Included on the team are Paul Sennett, Hank Schliff, Peter Greisler, Joe Cirincione, Joe Ken- nedy, Charles Haynes, Tom Gil- looley, Wendell Lorang and Edmund Rohrmeier. Mr. William Hils was commissioned to help the team ma- ture and develop. All in all, tennis has proven very successful at Bishop Gibbons and it is felt that this suc- cess will be carried on in future years, thus fulfilling the tradition set by this first team.
