' E, the senior class of 1951, lovingly dedicate this, our annual, to the HASSUMPTION OF MARY. On November 1, of the Holy Year 1950 our Holy Father, the Pope, declared the Assumption a dogma of faith. This is another gem that has been added to the already glorious crown of the Queen of Heaven. Because of her divine maternity, Mary derived a certain infinite dignity from the Infinite Good that is God. It was, therefore, in keeping with this indescribable dignity that she should be free from sin. Consequently, her freedom from the slightest stain of sin exempted her from the natural effects of the individual law of death. Not that Mary didn't die, but, as St. Alphonsus Liquori points out in the Glories of Mary, her death was caused more by the vehement and blessed flames of divine love than by merely natural means alone. But bodily corruption, the temporal stigma of sin, was also beneath the dignity and place of the Mother of God. Her incorruptibility in life was not to be blemished by bodily decay in death. Hence, soon after death, her virginal body was permitted to share in the heavenly joys of her pure soul. Now hundreds of years later we realize the fullness of so great a feast and claim it a Dogma of Religion. Mary has always been the fond Protectress of the students here at Rice. Our lives have been lived under the protecting mantle of her love. She has always been, to us, a Mother, It is only fitting therefore that we, the graduating class of 1951, pay homage to our Blcissed Mother by dedicating this, our annual, to the latest gem in her glorious crown, THE ASSUMPTION OF MARY!

His successor, Mr. Minachini, is continuing to instruct the Band and at the Christmas assembly many selections were favorably received. I-Ie promises to produce a band that will be second to none in the New York area, and worthy of the school. Brother Nlorlcan is the enthusiastic moderator of this activity.

At Christmas, a rendition of Fred Waring's, Night Before Christmas, was splendidly exef cuted. For the Annual Catholic High School Festival, the Club has been preparing such pieces as 'qLaudate Dominumf' by Struebel, The Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomondf, Moonlight in Mayo, and I Passed By Your Window.,' Outstanding in performances during the year were John Speelman, Henry McDevitt, Gregory Maguire, and Johnny Howard four talented tele- vision starj. Some members of the Club further showed the versatility of their repertoire by sing- ing a Requiem Mass at St. -Ioseph's Church, 125th St., for the repose of the soul of Reverend Brother P. Ryan, late ex-Provincial of the Irish Chris- tian Brothers, of the American Province. The demands on the Glee Club have been many. Each appearance met with the unstinted praise of its listeners. To Brother Joseph B. Darcy, the very capable instructor of the Club for the excellence of work produced, the Faculty and students are deeply grateful. C. Nlannix, lvl. Teehan, T. Shiel, S.

Its attractive make-up and well-written articles won for it both the warm-hearted approval of the students as well as the sincere encomium of the faculty. Printed in offset by the New City Printing Company of New Jersey, The Founderw en- deavored at all times to be a worthy product of a Catholic High School. Consequently, the writeups of religious news and activities received emphatic attention. Their prominence in each issue helped give the paper the proper balance and perspective. Moderated by Brother Bellows, The Founder, also endeavored to present a coverage of school news that would appeal to all classes of students. Therefore, a premium was placed upon concise, literary English. Every effort was made by the members of the staff to make each issue not Ohlf' highly readable but also to eliminate completely any evidences of poor taste or immature judg- ment. In this way, the school paper was not only a medium for the dissemination of school news but also a vital educational aid as well. if wpgiaa' X 1 5 X ,,,,,.,, I iff 2' 1 wl -'lingua Seated at the table is the Editorial Staff of the Edmun- Ashe, Luis Munoz, Patrick Callahan and I..'.'0l14lil'd Wil dian.

Representatives from several publishing companies gave of their time to give the staff many highlights on the editing and publishing of an Annual. The staff has been busily engaged in gathering material as a good pictorial review of the year's activities. The production which you are now perusing is the humble efforts of the class of 1951, and we trust that you will derive much pleasure in glanc- ing through its pages. We. of the class of '51, do hope that as the years glide by it shall be a medium through which we shall find pleasure in recalling those of our classmates with whom we have prayed, played and studied.

Hu In the group above is pictured the energetic committee who worlced so zealously from Wednesday until the final ' Slut I c li 539 aww' curtain rang down late Saturday evening on a very suc- cessful I950 Bazaar. THE BAZAA The 1950 Bazaar was held in the school audi- torium on the evenings of October 18, 19, 20, and 21. There were many attractive prizes dis- played in the various booths which had been erected and handsomely decorated by an energetic and resourceful committee of friends, students and alumni of the school. Because of the large attendance and the spirit of generosity so clearly evident throughout these evenings, the total pro- ceeds exceed by a comfortable margin the amount realized last year. The outstanding success of this Bazaar was contributed primarily to the self sacrificing efforts and whole-hearted cooperation of the Brothers and Committee. On Saturday night, October 21, the drawing for e main prizes took place from the stage of Rudy Bonesso and Andy Farese, two of our alumni, chalk-up some business at the grocery booth. the auditorium. Early that evening the crowd began to gather awaiting tensely the event which would climax the activities of the four nights. young girl, selected from the audience, drew the winning numbers from the chance bool: barrel. Then the winning names were announced by the Principal, Brother Wright. The main prize, a parlor or bedroom suite of your own choice or value in cash f.S300.l, was won by Mrs. Dursee. An electric washing machine, the second prize, was won by Robert Hurley. The third rize, a ladyls 17-jeweled wrist watch, was won by Mrs. McArdle, and the final prize, a gentlemarfs wrist watch, was won by Rose Marie McKean.
