It is to the Most Reverend John T. McNicholas that we are indebted. for our excellent faculty, for our beautiful modern building, and for his continued support and encouragement throughout the eight years of the existence of the school. Coming to Cincinnati in 1925, the Most Reverend Arch- bishop found higher Catholic education in Cincinnati at a low ebh. The parochial high-schools 0f the diocese were small crowd- ed institutions, incapable with their limited facilities of either attracting 0r accommodating a large enrollment. The new prelate quickly perceived the inadequacy of the parochial high school system in Cincinnati and began immediate- ly to organize the present, efficient, diocesan high-school system of which Roger Bacon is a part. Even in this, his thirty-sixth, year in the priesthood! the white-robed bishop finds little time to look back on his life of almost incessant activity as he labors in his office which carries with it jurisdiction over some 235,000 Catholics and positions on numerous councils and hoards of nation-wide religious charm acter. Fifty-nine years of age, he has been a bishop for some eighteen years, during which time he has occupied the episcopates 0f Duluth and Indianapolis and, for the past eleven years, the archiepiscopate of Cincinnati. He was especially honored in 1923 by his appointment to the ofiice of Assistant at the Papal Throne. .hl'lh

i .' i i I The Most Reverend Joseph H. Albers, D. D., auxiliary bishop of Cincinnati, has always been intensely interested in the cause of Catholic education, particularly in Cincinnati, his birthplace. T0 the lay mind he is, in all probability, best known for the heroic leadership he has shown in the movement to secure state aid for the Catholic schools in Ohio. Roger Bacon High School and other high schools had already been begun when he was consecrated bishop in 1929. However, as chancellor, the post that he held prior to his consecration, he was thoroughly familiar Willi the plans of the most reverend archbishop and he was quick to advocate the founding of the diocesan high school system. We have every reason to believe and to hope that he will continue to show his healthy interest in Roger Bacon and the other diocesan high schools for many years to come. h1gh
