Cur6 de la paroisse Notre-Dame de Lourdes, Janvier 1926-Avril 1945. Nous nous sozwiefzdrons... Prevost doit son existence ix la paternelle sollicitude de Mgr Robert. C'est en 1926 en effet, peu npres sa nomination ix la cure de Notre-Dame de Lourdes de Fall-River, que le Pere Robert demandait aux Freres de l'lnstruction Clnretienne de venir fonder une ecole primaire en sa pa- roisse. lferection de la nouvelle construction fut completee pour l'ouverture de l'annee scolaire 1927-1928. En septembre 1927, sept Freres rece- vaient un bon groupe de gnrcons de l'ecole Notre-Dame et des lors, l'oeuvre fonctionna 5 merveille sous l'oeil vigilant et bon du venere pasteur. b Bientot cependant, la vue de ses fmissants prenant le chemin de l'ecole publique determine Mgr Robert S fonder une'-Scole superieure et 5 completer ainsi l'oeuvre si bien commencee. En septernbre 1934, une quarantaine de gradues du Seme cours entraient en premiere annee et quah-e ans plus tard la premiere graduation venait contirmer les espoirs du devoue fondateur et de ses paroissiens. Un nouveau joyau venait d'enrichir la riche couronne d'oeuvres- que posse- dait dejia la paroisse Notre-Dame de Lourdes. , Sous l'essor vigoureux imprime des le debut, l'oeuvre a grandi et s'est impantee solidement. Aujourd'hui, elle est l'orgueil de Pelement fran- co-americain de la ville toute entiere et son influence s'accroit conti- nuellement. ' ' La classe de '45 et l'6cole superieure et elementaire Prevost prient Mgr Robert de bien vouloir accepter leur temoignage de gratitude pour ce precieux cadeau qu'il leur laisse-celui d'une education solidement catbolique-et ils demandent au bon Dieu d'accorder ii son bon et fi- dele serviteur des jours paisibles et heureux dans son nouveau sejour.

Lorsque Ia maladie vint terrasser Mgr Robert, on contiu Padministration de la paroisse Notre-Dame de Lourdes au Reverend Pere Cournoyer. Prevost beneficia tout de suite de son interet i la cause de Peducation. Uecole s'est developpee plus que jamais sous son administration. Des 'activites' nouvelles ont vu le jour et se sont epanouies de faqon mer- veilleuse. Les demandes d'admission A l'ecole superieure franco-americaine de la ville affluent de toutes parts, si bien qu'il devient impossible de rece- voir de nouveaux eleves. C'est dire qu'une ere de prosperite s'est ou- verte pour l'ecole. Nous, les heureux beneficiuires cle cet essor nouveau, sommes heureux de temoigner ici notre reconnaissance au Reverend Pere Cour- noyer, S qui nous devons tant. Nous comprenons et apprecions la sol- licitude dont nous avons ete l'objet et nous n'avons qu'un regret: celui de n'en pas avoir assez profite. En vrais fils de Prevost, nous nous souviendrons . . .

F E I I r I fifjlff , En quittant ce lieu beni ou nous avons passe, nous en sommes siirs, les plus belies annees de notre vie, nous voulons laisser aux generations rfetudiants a Prevost une breve explication du sceau de l'Ecole. , UETOILE DE LA FOI' doit etre le guide de tout chretien. Son influence doit regler toutes nos actions et nous conduire vers DIEU SEUL, but ultime de notre vie. C'est en vivant Penseignement religieux 'ui nous.. est donne i Pecole que nous accomplirons ce premier but. 'ormer des generations d'hommes vraiment chretiens, voili la raison principale de l'existence meme de notre bien-aime Prevost. Puis, l'acquisition du savoir, represente par LE F LAMBEAU TRA- DITIONNEL, doit etre la seconde preoccupation cle l'eleve chretien. C'est par le travail assidu, constant, applique que nous obtiendrons des resultats durables. , La FEUILLE D'ERABLE nous rappelle notre origine Canadienne- frangaise, notre culture frangaise et catholique, et notre belle langue anceatrale. Nous sommes Americains et nous en sommes fiersg nous sommes de descendance francaise, et comme tels, nous avons requ un heritage, des coutumes et des traditions dont nous sommes egalement tiers et nous nous devons de les conserver pour notre avantage personnel et pour celui de notre pays. RELIGION, SCIENCE et PATRIOTISME eclaire et bien compris, voila les trois phares vers lesquels tout vrai etudinnt de Provost doit orienter sa vie cl'6colier-phares qu'il ne devra jamais perdre de vue au cours de son existence.

As he usu- ally prefers to remain in the background, he is known as the class mystery man. He has regular habits and is a man of principles. Duty first, seems to be his motto. MAURICE BELANGER 698 Hickl Street Moe is serious, studious and ambitious. He knows but two places in class: first or second. Prudent and reserved, by all his classmates he is highly respected and is the center of his selected group of friends.

For ten years, I had not returned to my native city. So, I left New York as soon as my business transactions concerning the textile indus- tries were completed. On the train, as I was about to open my newspaper, a gentleman discreetly and noiselessly sat next to me. I felt his gaze on me and turning my head in his direction, I instantly recognized the quiet smile of . . . LEOPOLD MERCIER, an old fellow graduate of the class of '45. This now famous lawyer living in New York City, told me about his work and how much he enjoyed it. He informed me that he had just received a letter from . . . ROLAND GINGRAS, telling him he had now taken over his father's business as an insurance agent. I decided I would visit him on reaching my destination. Much to my amazement, during my long absence, Roland had acquired half the Granite Block as his headquarters. I had hardly recovered from-my surprise when he showed me the front page of the Herald News. The headline read: UMARCEL SIMONEAU Elected President. I scanned the contents of the article and found out that his oratorical prowess of old was now working wonders. All the textile workers of the city assembled in their yearly convention had elected my old high-school pal their president for the coming year. I was more than delighted to hear of this. Bidding adieu to Roland, I set out for dear old Prevost. On Pleasant Street, we were delayed by a long row of cars slowly and majesti- cally on their way to Notre Dame Church. It was a funeral procession and who else was in charge, but. . . GILBERT MORRISSETTE, the owner of one of the largest funeral parlors in Fall River. His four large buildings Were a beehive of activity during the few minutes I passed there. I next proceeded to Lafayette park, haf of which was now covered with two majestic, tive-storied, granite buildings. One was the large gymnasium which we had so vainly hoped for, and the other was a new Prevost, rebuilt, and completely modernized. After spending a few happy hou1's there, chat- ting and reminiscing with our former class moderator, Brother Patrick, I stopped in that huge store on Pleasant street, the new Stop Sz Shop. Under.. . NORMAND HEON'S managerial ability, the old store had been transformed and renovated thoroughly. Norm had me visit his food palace and, upon entering the back shop, he told me his assistant was . . . JOHN TEIXEIRA, now the leading butcher in the city. An interesting conversation soon followed, greatly enlivened by Tex's wit. My steps next led me toward the City Hall, where my eyes were attracted by a crowd grouped around two dis- tinguished gentlemen . . . ROGER LAMARRE and LAURENT TALBOT, who were congratulating each other on their recent victory in the last municipal elections. I offered them my congratulations and atiter a few words of friendship, bade them farewell. I knew w ere . . . JEAN-LOUIS GOULET'S office was. I decided to pay him a visit. He was kept very busy in his work as a draftsman. His previous connection with Brown 8: Sharpe Co. of Provi- dence had built up his reputation. We engaged in conversation and he informed me that . . . DANIEL GRACE had lately been named District At- torney. I was looking forward to meeting him but Jean-Louis told me he was out of town working on a criminal case. But I have a surprise in store for you, my companion told me. Let us go to a concert now about to start at St. Anne's Audi- toriumf' I had played there myself as a trumpeter in my younger days and I was glad to see the majestic hall once more. My joy doubled when I recognized . . . HECTOR BOSSE, solo trombonist with the nationally- known orchestra. A thunder of applause greeted everyone of his solos. I do not have to add that I gave him a big hand, too . . . After the concert, we shook hands with him and Jean-Louis next brought me to one of Talbot's drug stores for a cool drink. Here we met . . . HENRI LAGASSE, who, I was informed, was the best manager Mr. Talbot had ever had. He was very busy, so we could not stay too long. Walking down Main Street, Jean- Louis left me, and I accidentally bumped into . . . MAURICE BELANGER, tax collector for the city. We started to chat about the old times in Prevost and how every- thing had changed when suddenly a blond-haired fellow came into view. Why, it was . . . ROLAND BISSON, now a master electrician who had a business all his own. He invited me over to his new establish- ment, and there we niet none other than . . . CONRAD BOUTHILLIER, who had come to pay Roland a visit. Now research director in a big laboratory in Boston, Conrad proceeded to give us his opinions on a new discovery in plastics. As he had made a rendez-vous with . . . ALFRED BOUCHARD, I left with Conrad and soon met that other former classmate of mine, now Bouthillier's right- hand man. Al called my attention to a picture in the paper. I looked and saw . . . GEORGES LEVASSEUR, a Chief Radioman in the regular Navy. He always did love adventurous life and now he was getting loads of it. The article lauded him for his fine work. On the next page was an ad that read . . . TOM WALSH, the Florist. Here, you will find the largest assortment of flowers delivered at your convenience. Well, Tom had realized his lifelong ambition, sure enough! Al further informed me that . . . GERALD CHAREST had worked his way up from in- structor and daring test pilot to commanding officer at Ran- dolph Field. Again glancing at the paper, I saw a brief article about . . . GEORGES BRIERE. He had just won an Academy Award for best photography. Good old Georges still playing with a camera! I decided to look for a hotel for the night when my eyes were caught by a large sign . . . ' UNORMAND LAFLEUR, oculistf' I walked in and met the well-to-do Norm. Was I glad to see him again, the same regular fellow he used to be. He informed me that . . . ROGER LAMONDE was now connected with a great electrical concern in Boston. During the course of a long talk, I learned further that . . . . . CHARLES GAGNON was a noted mechanic. He had lately been promoted master mechanic at the Firestone and was planning to open his own business soon--a business which he felt sure, would thrive tremendously. I was invited to a game of golf at the Country Club the next day with Roger and Norm. We all went and whom did we see? Yes . . . BENOIT CHARLAND, the golf professional who was giving a lesson on golfing to a few novices. Among the latter, was a tall gentleman named . . . ANDRE de VILLERS. We engaged in conversation and I learned that he had taken over his father's business as a druggist. We all played a few rounds of golf, and then parted. That vacation, I thought, was the one I had enjoyed most since I had left dear old Prevost. I saw again many of my former schoolmates in the next few days, and when I sadly left Fall River for New York, at the depot, I met . . . RAYMOND ROY. He told me he had become a drafts- man. Was I pleased to see him once more! During the whole trip, we talked of how all our friends' ambitions had come true, and how the class of '45 was carving a place for itself in the whole wide world.

Of course, you guessed it. NFRESHMEN! We all felt important at being the proud bearers of this grand title. Handicapped by inexpericnce and nervousness, we nevertheless made of that first year a. real success. Four members of our class left ns to study f01' priesthood or brother- hood. Raymond Corriveau joined the Dominican Order at St. Hya- cinthe Seminary, Canada. Leo Renaud, Eugene Boutin and Marcel Denicourt Went to Alfred, Maine, where the Brothers of Christian In- struction have their juniorate. Congratulations and best wishes 'to the four ot' you. September 19J2...We felt a little more experienced than the greenhorn freshmen who had just enrolled. Our number had de- creased somewhat but we did not lose confidence. YVe knew this SO- PHOMORE year presented more work but we were sure of our ability to overcome the difficulties encountered. This bloody and destructive war drew our attention and some of us began to realize the confe- quences it would have on our future. During our JUNIOR year, problems piled up ever higher and higher, but we tackled them without hesitation, and again the outcome was satisfactory. Before the year was over, we pointed with pride to our fellow classmates who had entered the armed services. With the realization that our education meant more and more to us because of the war, we consequently determined to work still harder in our last year-the decisive one-at Prevost! SENIORS! Ah, what a beautiful note that word struck! The last step had finally been reached. One more of our classmates had left for the service but his place and two others had been occupied by Juniors who were to graduate with us. The program was tougher but our am- bition was higher for the end was now in sight, For most of us, this has been the year of awakening: the great unknown has been drawing ever closer to usg the cold outside world is waiting for us. But prepared as we are to face it, we are not afraid and are lirmly resolved not to be defeated by it. We will try to repay in part the debt of gratitude we owe our patient and inspiring teachers by being manly enough to live up to the ideal that every true Prevost man sets himself-ESTO VIR! MAURICE BELANGER '45 F ass W!! The dictionary's definition of a will is as follows: A legal paper in which a person states to whom his possessions are to be given after his death. After thinking it over for some time, we have come to the conclusion that the above-mentioned is not the proper way to pon a class will. There- fore, we shall endeavor to proceed without any legal measures or strings attached. First of all, we bequeath to our teachers a p'-onograph record stating the many reasons why students are late in the morning. To the JUNIORS, our successors, we leave the following: To GERARD BEAUDRY, a set of knives to throw around to the amazement of a crowd of admirers. To ROBERT BERTRAND, a well-equipped laboratory and two guards to watch him incessantly so that he won't get hurt. To MAURlCE BERUBE, the right to quit his job io indulge in his favorite sport, Fishing and out- door life. To ROLAND BOUSQUET. the right to be the most sludious young man of the class. To GEORGE CANTIN, the best two box seats in the house at Bshara's. ,To EDOUARD CANUEL, the right to win in his competition with England in the Latin class. To CHARLES CLYNES, a combination easy-chair and desk so that he may rest nt will. To ROBERT COULOMBE, a book entitled How to Groom Boy Scouts in One Easy Lesson. To RENE DESROCHERS, the privilege 'of coming to school late without danger of detention. To ROBERT DESROSIERS, a system in the typewriting room to restore elasticity to lingers on winter days. To EMERY ENGLAND, lifetime passes to the best shows in Fall River, namely the Royal and the Plaza. To ROGER PAUL, permission to revise the school schedule and eliminate all study periods. To ALFRED PELLETIER, a copy of the Herald News with the headline: Pelletier Hurls Prevost to Victory. To NORMAND PETIT, the deed to the Lincoln Park Bowling Alleys providing that the Alina lllatcr is to be treated to free entertainment. To ADRIEN PICARD, a parrot to perch on his shoulder and say You'll be late, you'll be late! To ANDRE PLANTE, Simoneau's convincing oratorical power and his position of school's foremost orator. To EDMOND VALIQUETTE, a couple of inches more so that he can make the first team. To ARTHUR VASCONCELLOS, permission to organize skating parties as often as he'd like to. To EARL WALL, a. book entitled I'ni a Poet and I Don't Know It. To NORMAN FERRIS, a loudspeaking unit to help him master his cheering squad. To PAUL FONTAINE, permission to write the book My Hair is Curly. To FERNAND TALBOT, the right to take a seat in the rear of the class again next year. To ROGER OLIVIER, a fishing rod and tackle to enjoy his leisure hours. To GERARD GAGNON, a book of advice on how to win his arguments with Herman. To HERMAN LAPOINTE, permission to have everyone call him by the same nickname. To ROGER LU5Sl'ER, a permanent position as dishwasher at the Union Hospital. To GERARD MARTEL, a carton of cigarettes.

Notwithstanding the pressure made on us by numerous calls for war jobs, most of the Sophomores of last year had re-enrolled under the White and Blue to per- fect their high school education. Early in October, we held the class elections. Earl Wall won the presidency by a close margin over his opponents. Andre Plante came next as vice-president and Rene Desrochers was elected secretary. We are indeed thankful to them for their valiant spirit and the nice work they accomplished since their election. The Glee Club and the school orchestra count but a few members among us. Gerard Gagnon, Roger Lussier and Maurice Bembe, should receive a special mention as choir members for their punctuality. Arthur Vasconcellos, the drum player, and Adrien Picard, our clarinetist are our con- tribution to the school instrumental group. The Prevost staff can always rely on Andre Plante, Paul Fontaine, and Earl Wall to turn in their articles on time. The success of the Varsity basketball squad also was greatly enhanced by the presence of Earl Wall who played guard and William Dalton who is credited with many baskets. What would the J.V.'s do without Edmond Valiquette and Rene Desrochersgthose real pillars of strength? However, in the field of athletics, Alfred Pelletier is Prevost's star performer with his shrewd professional pitching. In the speech contests, Alfred Pelletier, Andre Plante, Norman Ferris, Charles Clynes and Emery England were our worthy representatives. Our most sincere thanks to Brother Oscar and Brother Ernest, our class sponsors, through whose efficient leadership we have achieved so much. We now look forward to the final step already within sight. Respice Finem is our class motto. In All Things Consider the End. Our ambition is high, but we are determined to conquer.

All the 11:- tivities of the school can rely on the staunch support oi our ambitious group. The Varsity basket- ball team is almost exclusively recruited in our midst: the baseball team would not be much without us. The Glee Club finds its best tenors among us and the school orchestra has a great future because it can count on the support of the actual Sophomores. We are sure to give stiff competiiion to the orators of the Senior class, next year, in thc different contests we 1vill have with tlzcm, for who can beat John O'Neil, Raymond Dion, Alban Caron, Samuel Ford, and seven or eight more? If good spirit has prevailed i11 our group, and if enviable scholastic records have been es- tablished ill all the branches of the academic program this year, it is partly due to the unlimited devotedness of our class officers, Samuel Ford,, Raymond Ginsson and Raymond Dufour, whose leadership has guided us through hardships and difficulties. We are determined to go farg the world will hear from us . . . and, as we are about to embark upon the second half of o11r high-school 'curse, we remember that we will have to stiuggiu u11til the e11d . . .

La section B logea in l'etage superi- eur, d'ou l'on peut plus facilement suivre les activites du pare Lafayette. lI fallait, des le debut, initier ces nouveaux venus aux multiples change- ments qu'entraine la transition de l'ecole elementaire ii l'ecole superieure. Nos benja- mins se preterent sans sourciller aux avanies de l'initiation. Gerard Lamontagne, Edgar Ferland, Fernand Vannier et Leo Barnaby furent les heros de cette soiree inoubliable. Au cours de l'annee, tous ces vaillants ecoliers affronterent bravement les subti- lites de la langue de Shakespeare. Ils maitriserent en plus pm-faitement les synony- mes et les antonymes de sa majeste la langue francaise, temoins: Chouinard, Robert Guimond, Lapierre, Messier, Gendreau, Frenette et Chagnon. L'algebre, qui les passionna des le debut, demeura constamment leur sujet fa- vori. Aussi, quelle deception pour Hardy, Lapointe, Laflamme, Messier, Latinville, Roger A. Mercier, Vannier et LaChance quand cette periode etait supprimee! ! ! Les brillants succes remportes aux examens par les Freshmen ont ere soulignes en termes elogieux par les autorites de l'ecole. Romeo Guimond, Romeo Fortin, Ro- land Frazier, Roger Trudeau, Georges LeBreux, Rene Bouchard, Philippe Lavoie, Gerard Lamontagne, Normand Marchand, sont chez eux les champions de l'etude. La sodalite, qui compte un grand nombre de Freshmen, a revele en maintes occa- sions leur esprit d'initiative. D'aucuns se rappellent la splendide reception du 8 de- cembre, la journee de la presse catholique et les simples, mais beaux discours de Roland Frazier, Albert Tremblay, Rene Cadrin, Armand Gagnon, Laurent Marchand, Maurice Hamel et la brillante tenue du maitre de ceremonies, Romeo Guimond. , Les concours oratoires les ont trouves prets et les Sophomores n'ont jamais ren- contre des adversaires aussi tenaces que les gargons de la premiere annee. A nos orateurs, Robert Houde, Armand Gagnon, Rene Bouchard, Georges LeBreux. Romeo Guimond, Maurice Hamel, Albert Tremblay, Rene Latinville, honneur est du! La campagne des bons de guerre a prouve une fois de plus que les Freshmen sont souvent, sinon toujours, a la tete. Gilbert Guimond s'est classe premier pour la vente de ces bons, et John Countouriotis le suivait de pres. Bravo, Gilbert et John! L'orchestre aurait sans doute moins de couleur si Paul Gendreau, Romeo Fortin et Arthur Gamache n'en faisaient partie. Le Glee Club egalement compte parmi les Freshmen de belles et riches voix. Le Basketball Jayvie Team avec nos deux athle- tes, Armand Boissonneau et Hector Dion. a remporte les honneurs de la. ligue: et le baseball a aussi mis en relief un bon nombre de nos etoiles sportives. On dit que les Freshmen sont legers et tapageurs, mais ce sont la des defauts mignons que nos devoues titulaires, les Freres Albert et Francois, ont su nous par- donner. A eux, ainsi qu'aux Freres Godefroy et Marcel, nous exprimons ici nos re- merciements sinceres pour leur devouement inlassable. A vrai dire, nous sommes Hers de notre annee. Notre 'bapteme de feu' est ter- mine. Nous caressons l'espoir de nous retrouver tous ensemble en 1948 . . . Que per- sonne n'y manque! I -u gi Ttwrvc ? '7 'f1-gf' 'nfs t V 1 gun VL A ' 'wi i , .

Cgloclafity We terminate this fourth year of the existence of the Sodality with the realization that our end has been partly attained. That end is double: lj personal holiness, the essential and fundamental goal: 21 Catholic action, an important program which has for its general objective to replace the human race under the empire of Christ. This program presents us with a simple and clear-cut plan of action, which, when followed, maintains our interest in our religion and thus, renders our own sanctification easier to achieve. Catholic action is really a wonderful thing not only for sodalists but for all good Catholics as well. Our underclassmates have played an important part in this pro- gram by sponsoring numerous activities such as a Catholic Book Day' during which Freshmen orators pointed out the absolute necessity of reading good books and magazines, This and the Catholic Students' Mission Crusade also sponsored by the Sodality are as line examples as one could show of active Catholicism. Moreover, a great pilgrimage was organized last February. The intention: obtain a just peace. In May, the Sodality celebrated the fourth anniversary of its founding. On that occasion, the sodalists were asked to come to a general solemn mass and communion at Notre Dame hurch. OFFICERS Andre Plante, secretary: Maurice Belanger, prefect: Brother Francis, moderator: Father Dupuis. directorg Brother Florian, prinuipulg Brother Ernest, Georges Briere vice-prefect, Benoit Chnrlnnd. treasurer. 3!Q.S'S8 C! ijirgin gg . 'tif . During the four years, two annual retreats ' ' l X .. .N f have been given to Sodality members. Committees have been organized within the organization for its proper functioning such as the Catholic Paper ' Committee, sponsoring the sale and distribution f N ,Q of Catholic papers and periodicals in the school V - and in several parishes. The group had its own paper The Sodality Forum for the lirst two years. Now, a column of the school paper is de- voted to its activities each month, since last year. Membership has risen from 25, the first year, to 119 members. YVe have so far only begun the all-out battle against anti-Christian forces in our ,'2J?m s:,,,.JL- environment. We expect the future to be a life- A' ' V' A V 'l long struggle against them. We of the Sodality have laid sound foundations for our spiritual life on which we can erect strong walls for the protection of our religious convictions. The battles to come will be greater and harder but we are prepa1'ed. I! -1 The Sodalists of the class of '45 leave with the honor of having been the pioneers of the organization. We will ever consider that dis- tinction, a privilege. We leave, but the Sodality will keep on, and part of the credit comes to us. Rev. Father Dupuis, its chaplain, and Brother Francis, its mod- erator, have been the soul and heart of the organization since its be- ginnings and we wish them continued success in this, the most im- portant of all the school organizations.

Une classe reguliere quotidienne a pei-mis at ses membres de pra- tiquer plusieurs morceaux varies durant l'annee scolaire. Les programmes executes au cours de Vannee contenaient des pieces religieuses, des melodies patriotiques et me- me des airs de folklore et de musique moderne. Au geste souple, mesure et entrainant du directeur du groupe, le Frere Patrice, les chantres ont su progresser en nombre et en valeur. En effet, notre GIee Club a enregistre cette annee un record d'inscriptions, soit 125 members. Pnrmi eux, nous pouvons fierement remarquer plusieurs veterans dans la personne de Messieurs Rene Latinville, Robert Chouinard, Albert Tremblay, Oscar Maynard, Edouard Bouchard, Robert Lavoie, Normand Dumais, Alban Caron, Leo Barnaby, Gilbert Morrissette, Roger Lamonde, Raymond Dion et Georges LeB1'eux. C'est surtout ix la messe de minuit, et au concert que notre chorale s'est distinguee. Les morceaux si enlevants, si puissants et en meme temps si pieux de la Messe de Noel ont souleve Vadmiration des paroissiens de Notre-Dame.

Une fois de plus nos acteurs ont prouve qu'ils ne manquent pas de talents. Dans la piece anglaise, Whom Shall We Sue'? , Normand Heon et Roland Gamache in- terpreterent a nierveille le r6le de l'avocat sans le sou qui cherche par tous les moyens legaux 5. se procurer de quoi vivre. Ils eurent affaire au proprietaire juif que repre- sentait Norman Ferris et qui finit cependant par leur faire un bon parti. Des applaudissements prolonges soulignerent Vadresse et le sens rythmique d'un groupe de gymnastes de la premiere annee d'ecole superieure. Ce numero de gym- nastique avec massues fut probablement le plus goute de toute la soiree. Quelle cadence et quelle beaute ravissante dans cet ensemble d'evolutions rapides et elegan- tes executees au son de valses jouees par l'orchestre. A Leo Barnaby, Rene Bouchard, Rene Cadrin, Robert Chouinard, Roger Delisle, Armand Gagnon, Romeo Guimond, Robert Houde, Robert Lavoie, Andre Levesque, Albert Tremblay, et a leur modera- teur, le Frere Godefroy, en revient tout le credit. Puis vint la comedic francaise, Les folies d'une journeef' Notre impayable M. Theodore Bernier dans le r6le de Caprice, le serviteur maladroit et malchanceux, en fut le heros. La vue de ses folies donna le fou rire aux spectateurs. Marcel Simo- neau, remplissait le role de M. Plumet, maitre de Caprice. Sa voix forte et imperative resonne encore in nos oreilles. Tais-toi et reponds, commande-t-il a son serviteur. Rien d'etonnant si Caprice ne sait plus ceqe faire .... - Gilbert Morrissette, Alban Caron et Fernand Thibault representaient respective- ment l'agent de police, le petit neveu de Caprice et le cuisinier de M. Plumet. La joie et la gaite qui regnaient dans la salle durant la representation disent assez haut Pinteret que susciterent nos jeunes acteurs. M.

Invitations were even turned down at the beginning of the year, due to that lack of smoothness and efficiency which characterizes a well-trained musical body. Then, came winter with its intensive, round-the-clock practice, and, soon, our school orchestra came into its own again. In March, it had worked its way, once more, to its former standing and at the school concert, it rendered a creditable performance. Our musical group has reached the peak enrollment of twenty- eight, this year, the highest in its history. Special mention must be made of Roland Garnache, Marcel Simo- neau, and Henri Lagasse, leaders of the trumpet, clarinet and violin sections, respectively. They have held key positions in the school orchestra and by their faithfulness and their spirit have contributed a great deal to maintain and increase its reputation. The selections which our musicians prefer are Strauss' waltzes: Emperor Waltz , Tales from the Vienna Woods and Beautiful Blue Danube are their favorite. Their repertoire also includes among' other semi-classical numbers, such selections as Light Cavalry by von Suppe, '4Marche Hongroisen by Berlioz and Hungarian Dance no. G by Brahms.

In a gorgeous setting, the like of which Notre Dame Hall had never seen, our singers and our musicians, big and small, displayed a, remarkable ability and a splendid training. The audience was unani- mous in its praise of the perfect blending of voices and of the fine interpretation of the different selections as well as of their wide range. The artistic rendition of difficult numbers by the school orchestra was also enthusiastically received by the listeners. The program, under the direction of the Reverend Brothers Patrick, Bernard, Godfrey and Prof. Doniinateur Plante, is, in the estimation of many, the best Prevost has yet offered. I. AMERICAN 1.

Their spiritual needs are provided for, it is true, by the Army and Navy authorities, but the dangers they run against are so numerous that here, at home, we feel it is our duty to help them. , We want them to keep their morale by helping them keep their morals. We want our alumni to come back safe and sound, physically and morally. We want to contribute our share in the winning of the peace that is to .follow this war. We believe that peace can best be established on a morally sound generation. That is why daily we assembled in the corridors of our small school building and there prayed fervently for our Prevost men all over the world. After listening to a short address from one of the best school orators, we daily asked the Divine Saviour to have mercy on the sins of mankind, on our own sins, and to bring back our soldiers, sailors, marines and aviators, good and wholesome, as they were when they left. Georges Briere, the school president, introduced the speakers and the school principal, Reverend Brother Florian, brought each meeting to a close by appropriate remarks and prayers. Marcel Simoneau, '45, Andre Plante, '46, Norman Ferris, '46, and Norman Heon, '45, spoke with marvelous ease and poise. Their convincing presentation of the case in favor of our servicemen moved everyone in the school. The week of prayer closed with a high mass sung in Notre Dame Church on Friday, May 11. The mass was offered for our Prevost servicemen by the class of '45 and was attended by the whole student-body.

Mag, octubre 1,945 if ll' No. 1 The Newsletter is no more. It did establish a closer bond between the alumni and tile present student body at Prevost High as the numerous letters of appreciation prove. The class of '44 were the pioneers and they deserve to be praised highly for their successful undertaking. The Newsletter as its name indicates was a letter sent monthly to our Prevost men in the serviceg it contained brief articles about each one of the graduates of a given class and, incidentally, a few bits of news about the school. A new paper, according to a new formula, appeared last October. In it, great attention is still given to our former graduates now in the service, in the column entitled Let's Open 'the Mail Bag. In fact, it is one of the most highly praised sections of our monthly. More emphasis, however, is laid on the school activities. It has become now a real school paper with an important section devoted to our alnmni. Besides the classnotes and the general news of the school, columns of parti- cular interest have been added., Among them, Hector Bosse's Meet the Boys and Roland Gamache's Gossip Column have proved most interesting. A new printing press bought last Fall has considerably improved the general appearance of our paper. Besides, that Multilith Duplicator saves plenty of hand labor, since with its automatic feeding device, it can print 4250 sheets an hour. I Our school paper is now affiliated with the National Scholastic Press Association, and the rating lately given by the All-American Critical Service is more than satisfactory, considering the state of infancy in which it still is. Many thanks are due to all the editors of the paper and particularly to Father Dupuis for his monthly contributions to our spiritual welfare, to Henri Lag-asse, its editor-in-chief, to Georges Briere, ululnni editor and to Norman Heon for liis spontaneous contributions.

Our iirst Varsity hoopsters, despite their lack of experience and of facilities for practis- ing, gave a good account of themselves. - Ray Giasson, captain, is a fleet-footed player, very adept under the hoop, and his 150 pts. for the current season highly testify to his marksmanship. George Levas- seur and Sam Ford, our two forwards worked as a well balanced team: their nifty passwork coupled with their surprising ability at shooting did mystify our opponents many a time. Our lanky center, Dan Latendresse, and Bill Wall, our speedy guard, are looking forward to a. successful season next year. With such potential ability there is no doubt that next year Prevost will be on top the Narry League. Our Jayvee team won 7 out of 10 in the League and were eked out by Dighton Seconds only. Zeke Valiquette and Armand Boissonneau were the mainstays of the Jayvee team but they were well supported by such hoopsters as Ben Charland, Rene Des- rochers, Hector Dion, Paul Peloquin and Ronald Morrissette.

The Prevost Nine will be piloted this year by Mr. Nicholas Olivier, a man who comes to Prevost with a wealth of experience. p L Mr. Olivier, incidentally, played ball under Leslie Orcutt with the championship team of 19275 he also played with the Championship Border City team of the North End League' under Bob Read, with Picard's East End League, and with the championship Fontaine's of East End League. 1? 472 Q75 s if N E ff! ' Coach Olivier's work should not be too arduous, forphe has a nucleus to build around. The Maple Leafs' squad counts six regulars spring. They are catcher George Levasseur, pitcher Al Pelletier, first , second baseman Gay Giasson, outfielders George Briere and Roland back for service this baseman Ben Ford Gamache. Alfred Pelletier will be the only regular pitcher returning from last year's squad but another mound candidate is Armand Boissonneau who is a good hurling prospect on the mound staff. To fill holes in his lineup, the Prevost mentor has capable candidates. Rene Desrochers, will most likely be guarding the hot corner, while Roger Mercier, a Freshman, whose ex- pertness has astounded everybody, will see action at short stop. Giasson may get behind the bat if Levasseur gets his Navy call. Briere was hoping to play in the infield but with his speed Georges will be best used as a flychaser. Roland Gamache and Pete Levesque will be chasing fly balls in the outer pastures. Q Capable reserves will keep the varsity nine on their toes and, will be ready to swing into action. Marcel Simoneau is a nifty second baseman who will keep Giasson working. Other second stringers are Latendresse, Lagasse, Fortin, Bonnafe and Peloquin. ' Wehope that the Prevost baseball team coached by a man of such uncanny ability as Nick Olivier will garner many a victory.

Qasketball GRAMMAR SCHOOL Sheer grit, relentless determination, boundless energy and a spirit of never-give- up, these are the sterling characteristics of our young basketeers. With -the help of these priceless qualities, they established a most enviable record of 16 wins and 3.losses in league cgmpetitionsp two of these losses were by one and two-point mar- gms. The final league standing found them in second place having lost just one more game than the leaders whom they were unable to beat. Besides this heavy schedule, they went on to take four exhibition games in stride by whipping a highly touted St. Peter and Paul's quintet twice and trouncing Sacred H68Tt'S, the League Champions by decisive scores of 37-27 and 34-16. Of cofirse, our color-bearers didn't achieve so resounding a success without painstaking e orts. Every day, throughout the season, they faithfully reported at the Canadian Club for stiff workouts disregarding their self-interest and personal pleasure. They certainly deserve credit for their unselfishness. It is especially gratifying to note that in every contest, they abided by the rules of true sportsmanship and fair play. They have set a magnificent example for their younger schoolmates to follow in the years to come. They more than lived up to their coach's expectations: the latter is high in praise of his team. The records reveal that the outstanding scorers for the season are as follows: Flash Maurice Melanson was high with 151 points. Norniand Senechal, although filling a guard berth, racked up 120. Pelletier, our elusive center, pumped in 113 and Vezina, our hard-fighting right forward, caged 67 markers. ienfaiteurs MGR LOUIS-DAMASE ROBERT, P. D., P. R. MGR GEORGE CAIN, P.
