CATHULIG PRINCIPLES The students of Our Lady of Lourdes owe a great debt of gratitude to these untiring fishers of men. By sacrificing their own time and interests our Priests instruct various religion classes throughout the school. With ceaseless effort they replace ignorance of Divine Law with knowledge and understanding. They resolve the difficulties placed before them with tact and con- sideration. Their only wish is to prepare us for the problems we shall meet in our lives now and in the future. More important, however, is their desire to instill into us the principles of our Catholic religion, so that knowing our Faith, we may permit it to lead us to Eternity. Indeed, for all their patience and effort, Our Lady of Lourdes says a heartfelt Thank you. One of the greatest joys of Father Leitch is to participate in the graduation exercises. He delights in the accomplishments of the students and shares the joys of their success. REV. ANTHONY HEBB REV. JOHN J. KEOUGH REV. FELIX COMEAU, O.F.M. Conv. Religion III Religion I Religion II

PRINGIPALS AND CLERGY REFLEGT REV. THOMAS A. LEITCH Principal Religion IV REV. MARTIN BROWN Assistant Principal Religion I, Il Endowed with wisdom and patience, Father Leitch and his capable assistant Father Brown, encourage the spiritual, intel- lectual, and social growth of the student body of Our Lady of Lourdes. Whether speaking to an individual, or to the entire school Father increases our spiritual knowledge through his priestly advice and example, With his expert guidance he broadens our intellectual outlook with his constant exhortation: Keep a novel cooking all the time. The reading of good material other than textbooks advances us mentally and ex- pands our scope of vision. Socially he broadens our world with accounts of his own experiences or tales of the problems and resolution of difficulties faced by others. Father helps us to avoid the pitfalls and snares that have entangled other teenagers of his acquaintance. Backing Father Leitch with dignity and determination is our Vice-Principal Father Brown, who' inspires and aids the students as does Father Leitch. Between these two able clergymen the student body of Our Lady oi' Lourdes, advances in wisdom and grace before God and menf'

FACULTY INSTRUCT AND GUIDE US THROUGH NEW PATHS I2 It is through the guidance and leadership of our revered faculty that we have achieved our Catholic High School education. To them we are indebted for their unceasing efforts in preparing us for the world in which we are about to enter. Their Christian ideals of education and extent virtues will long be with us as we depart to face new and more difficult problems with an ever increasing hope of success, To the religious and lay members of our faculty, we extend our appre- ciation and gratitude for having so zealously aided us in attaining our place upon the pedestal of knowledge.
