KLAVER, Latin REV, F, H, EIWER, Mathematicg FACULTY In this modern world, great stress is placed upon education. People in all walks of life are training for their professions. For this reason it is necessary that the future priests, who are to be the guides and spiritual lead- ers of these people, be well grounded in these same sciences It is to t is task that the CROSIER ORDER has dedicated itself, for trls purpose each of its members ras pledged his life However, a minor seminary training does not stop at the knowledge of the classics Another phase, and perhaps the most important, is that of oharao ter formation In the formation of any boy's character, there must be a leader, a real man whom he can follow and imitate These priests are our leaders, they are tre real men in our lives In eaor of trem we find embodied our ideals, each of them is a personlfication of what we rope to be some day They have been ever present when trelr advice was needed, and it is through their efforts that tre PRIESTS OF TOMORROW are being trained 5 CALLJLA5 aafukk . h l .

H0 'br This picture, as you see, r presents no particular individual of our school, but rather the results of nine months of literary inspiration and per spiratlon Such a varied assortment of finished products would perhaps not have xt been produced by a single individual nor 1, even by a small group In view of the W fact that editing and composing a school paper takes many hours of labor and that B on the other hand, in a routine schedule of a boarding school the average stu dent's spare time is limited, our school paper, THE MARINEWS, has no permanent editor Each of the sixth year men has his turn at editing an issue he selects his own staff assignee material for news articles, editorials and features plans the makeup and composition and supervises the production of the paper Through this policy every graduate can truthfully say he has had some practical experl ence in journalistic production and has learned some of the rudiments. Moreover, the regularly revolving new crew aimed to give us a Nnew lookn on each issue. Naturally, because of natural talents or acquired knowledge, some are chosen more often than others to work on the staff. Even so, special recogni tion is due to Joe Clauss for his faithfulness at the mlmeograplf machine. Bill Martin and Howard Snider were outstanding for faithfulness and skill in artistic designs and Bill Spranger worked untirlngly to assure everybody his regular copy. -17- . xvkk -X ' f , . .

Such a man is Fr. Westendorf, patient and understanding, his knowledge of boys is deep and true. In his many conferences he highlighted the beauty of our vocation and stressed the necessity of being positive in all of our actions. With the help of silence and private meditation, each boy must have ended the retreat with a deeper ap preciation of his exalted calling. ..34- X, :If , Lf, A , at X wg dk ev by 4IIIIh 2 fgfl Q Y Q,-tE!J3,.q3,, CATHEDRAL CHORISTERS PRESENT CONCERT The Cathedral Chorlsters of Fort Wayne presented a concert of sacred music in February in Our' Chapel The program included a musical tribute to Bishop Noll, hymn to the Blessed Sacrament, and the Blessed V1rg1n,and a rendi tion of the Ordinary of the Mass in several styles of music Added to this we heard selections by the Wood String Quartet together with a commentary by Mon signor Dapp, Rector of the Cathedral VX MUSIC CONTEST On the evening of May l the school presented its annual music contest, procuring the services f Professor John Yonkman t act s Judge for the program It included three of the main fields of music voice, p1ano,and musical instruments, with the contestants vying to outdo each other in the performance their pieces and their musical tech nlque ORATORY CONTEST Perhaps there were no Clceros or Fulton Sheens among the group but the special students and fifth and sixth year men did their best to treat the various phases under the general sub- ject, THE CHURCH TODAY Having pre pared ten minute speeches they used all the frills and rhetorical devices at their disposal to convince the au dience and judges of their abilities The winner of the contest received the Monsignor Conroy Oratory Medal given annually to the boy who dis plays the most polished style in the presentation of an oration, coupled with the best composition ' r 1 X, M 1 id O I o a - of - -j5...
