When we met them, we knew them only as our faculty. Theirs was the task of bringing the inexperience of youth to young maturity. It was a task filled with love and sacrifice. We did not realize this at first. But now, as we approach a new beginning, we know them as friends.

First Friday devotions. Third Or¬ der blessings, and votive Masses are but a few of the occasions upon which we avail ourselves of his help. Reassuring and capable, Miss Moina Julian renders medical aid and keeps the health records of O.L.A. up to date. Eye checkups, hearing tests, and valuable advice are given with competent courtesy. 12 Where is Mr. Hoffman? is a familiar call on O.L.A. corridors. Bus driver, elec¬ trician, plumber, a regular fix-it man , his services are invaluable. They give generously of their time and services. Student-faculty bonds extend beyond the classroom. Not content with being merely instructors, our teachers also act as ad¬ visers, friends, and guides. 13 The road to knowledge and realization leads through scholarship. Those who have gone before us leave us the magrfificent heritage of the thought and endeavor that have built up the wisdom of the centuries. The largesse within the grasp of inquiring minds staggers us. At the same time, it challenges us to contribute to the body of that wisdom; to light another candle. We light the candle of SCHOLARSHIP. Sister Mary Laurette, C.S.S.F. Sophomores, Joan Kement, Carolyn Jas- kolka, Sandra Kusiak, Kathleen Huebner, Suzanne Lavoie, Joan Mazur, Regina Lu- kasik, and Maryanne Jurgielewicz, look on as Nancy Pelkey traces the journeys of Christ during His first years of public teaching in Galilee, Judea, and Samaria. Come Holy Ghost! This theme engages Junior Religion stu¬ dents, counterclockwise, Dolores Kiejko, Ann Pound, Colette Poirier, Frances Kruzel, Jacqueline Kazanowski, and Sylvia Skarbek, in purposeful activities. 16 IMPORTANT Freshmen, standing, Mary Rose Krusiewski and Elaine Polek; seated, Roberta Kennedy, Vi¬ vian Pierce Margaret McKenna, Carol Pozniak, Susan Poharski, Patricia Paterwic, Carolanne Needham, and Nancy Kuzara, find their place in today ' s world through Catholic Action. The cornerstone of our scholastic endeavors is RELIGION. Religion helps to solve im¬ portant moral questions. Discovering this are Sen¬ iors Beverly Slifkua, Rose¬ marie Sponzo, Patricia Pot¬ ter, Sharon Bergh, and Ruth Smith. Sister Laurette looks on with interest. 17 Developing their historical vocabulary during a session in Developmental Reading are: Maryann Wroblewski, Stasia Trymbulak, Carolyn Davis, Sandra Peters, Donna De Maria, and Ann Amodeo. A study of world situations and customs is made by World History students, standing, Florinda Santos, Suzanne Krochalis, Frances Galeotti, Maryanne Sylvester, and Mary Anne Stoker; also, Andrea Furman, Bonnie Bergh, Sandra Dec, and Susan Child. We relive the past, witness the present, and contemplate the future through SOCIAL STUDIES Sister Mary Casimere, C.S.S.F. An active concern about the rights of American citizens to select their next presi¬ dent is registered by these Problems of American Democracy students; standing, Paula Burzenski, Patricia Zabiski, Patricia Laing, Maryanne Maciolek; se ated, Barbara De Maria and Jeanne Schulte. We did it at last! ex¬ claims Mary Lou Uzdar- win to Virginia Eaton, Patricia Cassotta, and Pa¬ tricia Kalmer as they ex¬ amine the finished copy, a product of their first lesson on the mimeo¬ graphing machine. Through BUSINESS we develop our practical skills ... Sister Mary Antoinette, C.S.S.F. Shorthand is widening its scope, as Sheila Butler, Geraldine Siok, Winifred Kuraitis and Carole Stew¬ ard have discovered in their perusal of Short¬ hand text-books and rec¬ ords based on the social encyclicals of Pope Pius XI. The value of words is the concern of Marion Lomana, Mary Agnes Crowley, Kar¬ en McCue and Patricia McKenna as they increase their business vocabu¬ laries. 21 ... and prepare to earn our living in a competitive world. m Cynthia Polek gladly ex¬ hibits her finished art work to Eileen Quinn and Pamela Rarus. Mary Quaglini busily adds fin¬ ishing touches to her as¬ signment. Paula Coolen, Pierrette Courtemanche, and Judy Guay try solving com¬ plex bookeeping problems while Judith Balsewicz and Patricia Buckley dili¬ gently attempt the same problem in their little cor¬ ner of the world. Vigorously, the fingers ot, first row, Ann Marie Raper, Gloria Phil, second row, Rose Mary O ' Brien, Kathleen Yost, third row, Mary Lou Toolan, Susan Preli, fourth row, Dianne Wyszomirski, and Barbara Rogowski, glide over the keyboards.

Enjoying the tableau are Marilyn Mokrycki, Gloria Nasuta, Ann O ' Brien, Christine Mooney, Margaret Griffin, and Joan Messenger. Sister Mary Doloria, C.S.S.F. Sister Mary Magdalen, C.S.S.F. 24 Indulging their interest in contem¬ porary literature ore: Judith Annel- li, Patricia Jones, Victoria Walmus, and Carole Strong. Margaret Wiliams, Barbara Santan- ella, Jean Renno, and Carole Smith find the world at their fingertips through the perusal of this wealth of library material. ENGLISH depicts the variable, yet never-changing element of human nature. A familiar classic comes to life as Linda Carrigan adjusts the television set. Nancy Gullatt, Rita Dowdy, Stasia Hodyl, Ann Marie Crowley, Nancy Kearney, and Karen Fritze antici¬ pate their venture into 18th century France. 25 The travels of Aeneas are ex¬ plained, with illustrations, by Carol Markoski with the help of Joyce Jarosz as fellow Vergil students Margaret Coyne, Irene Gospodarek, and Carol Michaud check their references. A channel of communication with the minds of great Romans is opened for us through LATIN. Est pulchrum, say admiring seniors Cecilia Lukasik, Catherine Bunce and Jeanne Krochalis of the trophy they obtained in the Nationwide A.S.P.L. Latin contest. 26 The formation of a Roman legion in a battle line is ex¬ plained by Christine Przybycien, as Geraldine Scavotto points out makeup of the army units to Joanne Kaminski, Mary Jankowska, Mary DiSciacca, Anna Lichtanski, Mary Ann Markowski, and Linda Kolonoski. Sister Mary Amabilis, C.S.S.F. In the opinions of Elizabeth Mielnikiewicz, Jane Doyle, Victoria Skower, Louise Messier, Sylvia Nicolae, Nancy Znamierowski, Shirley Alexandrowicz, Jane Chickosky, Joan Montovani, Ann Brown, Jo Ann Polek, and Joan Pohorylo, Latin does indeed live today. 27 Sister Mary Evelyn, C.S.S.F Our vistas of international understanding are broadened through the medium of MODERN LANGUAGES. The practical study of the Polish language is the aim of these seniors: Ellen Rousseau, Madeline Jaksina, Patricia lagrosso, and Cecilia Lukasik. Polish culture through pictures is a matter of lively interest to fresh¬ men Ann Chagnon, Anne Adamczyk, Geraldine Kogut, Barbara Malina, Louise Skarbek, Sylvia Lukasik, Fran¬ ces Raymond, Dorothy Hudak, Claire Korzeniewska, and Patricia Dunn. 28 Marie Apostolico, Lorraine Tabaka, Bar¬ bara Zieminski, Kathleen Mullen, and Donna Hopkins listen attentively as Kath¬ ryn Gabriel points out the importance of mastering the fundamentals of French grammar, vocabulary, verbs, idioms, and reading. Sheila Leary, Carmela Alaimo, Catherine Bunce, Claire Polek, and Assunta Arcaro, members of the French II class, are seen with Sister Evelyn enjoying the music of the Little Singers of Paris. 29 Girls, your mistake is in your calculation, not in your thinking, explains Sister Joanette to Math IV students Gail Troie, Kathleen DiMaso, Patricio Prekop, and Donna Lee Czapiga. The study of MATHEMATICS leads us to understand the why and to know the how. Gloria Dymek c oes prove that side- angle-side equals side-angle-side to Sheila Handley, while Loretta Cyran- kowski guides Joanne Gorman, Rose¬ marie Dell Aquilla, Eileen Colgan, Harriet Derylak, and Geraldine Bugai to the same conclusion. Sister Mary Leonia, C.S.S.F. The Associative Law states . . . and Judith Butler explains its functions to avid listeners in Algebra II, back row, Virginia Tyler, Luba Stobierski, and Theresa Rutkowski; front row, Elizabeth Shanahan and Susan Mead. Freshmen, Cynthia Kearney and Christine Figura, knowledgeably ex¬ plain the principles of elementary algebra to their classmates, Lynn Thompson, Theresa Muraski, Helen Godbois, Sandra Kracunas, Carol Cynoski, Carol Lidak, Joan Piskala, and Judith Hunt. 31 Sister Mary Joanette, C.S.S.F. SCIENCE aids in our appreciation of the hidden mysteries of creation. The new Earth Science course seems to delight these freshmen. Shown examining rock specimens are: seated, Carol Kropp, Dianne Ostendorf, Pamela Tevald, and Katherine Krzys; standing, Lee Houle, Marie Siana, Sharon Terry, Lorraine Hamblin, Janice Parakilis, and Francine Oliver. mmmm mm r f a C These Chemistry students, Pa¬ tricia Furman, Carole Rzasa, Mary Ellen Lafond and Theresa Jankowska look on with interest as Sister Leonia gives a demon¬ stration in glass-bending. 32 Sister Angeline captures the interest of enthusiastic biology students, with the exciting world of the microscope. Shown examining, moss specimens are: Eileen Renna, Evelyn Yedz ' miak, Pauline Piechocki, Jane Zawistowski, and Kathleen Stroiney. This is the only possible for¬ mula to use, explains Lucy La- Pierre to Jeonne Krochalis, Ros- aleen Mazur, and Jacqueline Messier. Physics requires a pre¬ cise knowledge of formulas. 33 The more we think of our eternal destiny, the more we realize that earthly life is a journey toward something far more significant than this world. Those who are making this journey must keep before them the good example of previous travelers. We, the seniors, the previous travelers, reach for the hands of our successors to lead them onward. We light the candle of LEADERSHIP... fit ' M C ?M Br ’ • ■c S25$ Cto - ' ' This is a time to remember: to set down No point in time is long ago, nor by lapse of time has it grown old. Our high school days at O.L.A. are over. We look back at the four years which have etched their way into our minds and hearts, and find they have been good years; we look back at the moments we have shared, and find that they have deepened our sense of values. Time will not erase these mental photographs— they are our CLASS HISTORY. CARMELLA MARIE ALAIMO ST.

We arrived at O.L.A. with expectant awe. Soon came our rude awakening. Unsuspecting, we were shepherded to the auditorium. Once there, we discovered the dire truth . . . this was our initiation. Our newly-acquired dignity as Angelites shattered into infinitesimal fragments as the seniors called us on stage to perform ridiculous feats. Leaving with our hazing requirements, we laughingly vowed to see to it that the poor hapless class of 1965 would undergo even more impossible trials at our hands. Initiation introduced us to the first 38 HONOR STUDENT CATHERINE ANN BUNCE ST.

Our first dramatic venture, designed to do honor to our big sisters on their Ring Day, was a success. So was the breakfast we served them in the guild room. All our hours of rehearsal and planning were climaxed by a day as exhilarating and rewarding for us as it was for the juniors. MARY AGNES CROWLEY ST.

This was our first class night at the Academy. This was when great effort was recognized, and great achievement honored. Remember the squeals of surprise, the intoxicating applause, the tears of pride and happiness, as the award-winners claimed their honors! One more link of our Academy heritage was forged this night. We became sophomores . .. and engaged in our first wild scramble for the new bows of identification. sense of achievement and fulfillment. VIRGINIA MARY EATON ST.

Twelve days of Christmas, we illustrated. Angels we have heard on high, we sang, and two hundred appeared on stage— with a Christmas gift of lacy handkerchiefs attached to their skirts. Distributed to their new owners, they left behind them two hundred candles, a chorus of Merry Christmas, — and the sophomore committee cleaning up after a successful Christmas program.

We left a part of our lives at O.L.A. What kind of a tree are we going to have? The question echoed through the room at class meetings. The matter was settled for us, when the nursery men arrived with a pink dogwood. Not only did they bring it, they also planted it. Undaunted, we thronged about it, sang our song, and watched our officers heave the final shovelfuls of dirt. And, in no time at all, we had a treeful of pi nk blossoms as an enduring memento of the class of 1961. 46 when, following sophomore tradition, we planted our class tree—a pink dogwood—on Arbor Da .

It was time to renew our spirits once again, with the help of God. Retreat was upon us. The quiet days gave us a new realization of the meaning of life and a new resolve to face it with thoughtful purpose. For a little while the hustle and bustle of our busy world melted into insignificance in the solitude of our chapel, and we rediscovered a sense of balance. We emerged refreshed and determined to carry out our newly-formed resolutions. MARION TERESA LAMANA ST.

The beginning of our junior year brought us face to face with an ever-present yet seldom realized reality. Ann Marie McCarthy, our gentle and unassuming classmate, accepted death as quietly as she had lived her life. For unto Thy faithful, O Lord, life is changed, not taken away. 51 Privileges and duties accompanied our We wanted our freshmen to look upon us as true sisters to whom they could turn for help and guidance. Therefore, our little sisters were not selected by us; our little sisters selected us. Each freshman drew a junior ' s name, and claimed a big sister of her own. The relationship was sealed with a scroll of certification. Thus we continued a cherished Academy tradition and made it uniquely our own. CECILIA THERESA LUKASIK ST.

Our first major project as seniors: the initiation of the freshmen. After much careful deliberation behind closed doors, our plans were completed. The too-trusting newcomers were led to the auditorium to see some slides of Washington, narrated by Sister Principal. This seemed too tame a pastime for the dangerous month of September. Lo and behold, on an alien slide: Surprise! This is your initiation. Then the fun began. all in the spirit of thorough good fun. How rarely in a hundred years do we open our hearts, said the poet. Our hearts have been open for the past four years; open to the strivings, the joys, the camaraderie of shared experience. We have taken a full measure of the traditions, the ideals which have built the spirit of O.L.A. through the years, and infused it into each moment of our school life. We shall have these moments to remember— they are preserved for us in this book. BEVERLY-JEAN SLIFKUS ST.

Next year, they told us, we would not be here a t O.L.A. —we would be in college, or training in hospitals, or working. We would no longer be students, but alumnae. Our reluctance at leaving coupled with our excitement over future plans. They were the first steps in our incipient adulthood. 62 CAROLE ANN STRONG GAIL EAAILIE TROIE ST.

Summit of time, here we are. This is graduation— the final solemnity. Our years at O.LA. are over. They have been wonderful years, and we shall always be grateful for them. Now, the future lies before us. What we make of it depends on ourselves. We must resolve always to live up to the ideals of a true Angelite if we are to find true success and happiness in our future lives. We must go on, from the end to a new beginning. 65 Character is built upon firm foundations: foundations saturated with principles of self-sacrifice and cooperation. This we have been taught, and it is this we have grown to realize: an understanding matured by the daily tasks of an Angelite- work and play, prayer and action, study and achievement. Our foundation now nears its completion. It must be strong and wholesome for upon it we shall build our future. We light the candle of CHARACTER...

Lunch time offers relaxation for these hardworking girls. Looks like the report card turned out fairly well.
