' STATION R B H S - SCENE 0F bk IN SANTITATE THE BIG BROADCAST OF l948 In a figurative sense - with no undue strain on the imagination e we are calling Roger Bacon High School a radio-television station. From our own studios we are telecasting THE BIG BROADCAST OF '48, one huge production which incorporates all the individual programs of the school year with each and every one of our 850 television artists participating. We are sending it over our station whose call letters have been designated as R B H 5. Go to any ordinary radio station and you will find comfortable studios from whence eminote the broadcasts. In our particular location at station R B H S, we have 22 studios e- we call them classrooms e and 3 executive offices, wherein our Executive Directors and Program Managers may work in executive privacy. In our 22 studios you will find that programs are continuously conducted cn a regular broadcasting schedule beginning at 8:25 and signing off at 2:15, Monday through Friday. Frequently, special rehearsals extend after the sign-off for programs which will be re-videoed at a time more convenient for a large audience. The Telecasts of evening entertainments are made that way. Way over on the left side, where you cannot even see it in this picture, is the control room. Here the engineers and announcers, who will be seen later, observe the screening and 50und track in the rough and decide what is to be transmitted to you, our audience. In trade jargon these engineers and announcers are known as members of the TROUBADOUR staff. The studio itself was officially opened in 1928 by the Franciscan Fathers. Since the construction was only almost done, rather than completed, the building was not put into actual use until 1929. In October 1929, the Rev. John T. McNicholas, whose picture you will see shortly, officially dedicated the high school to the cause of higher Catholic Education. So Roger Bacon High School came into being as a member of FES lFranciscan Education SystemJ In 1929 there were 305 students in the whole school; now over half that number graduate yearly. This then, is Station R B H S. Keep tuned for the BIG BROAD- CAST OF '48 which follows shortly. ET DOCTRINA ...... an education must have as its endeproducts holiness and wisdom. Therefore, the process, begun In instruction and book-learning, must continue for one's whole lifetime. photograph by Frofer Joel Costa, O.FKM. In the thirteenth century Francis of Assisi, founded Franciscans. He, himself and finer than that which daily life, so he renounced and devoted himsehc en- poor and afflicted. St. upon a strict rule of man led a very simple ally for his great and God's creatures. M 24M Lest we be carried away by the mastery of twentieth century won- ders, such as television, and all we call modern times, let us pause and reflect upon this saint, who six hundred years ago found a goal in God toward which the world is still groping. As genuine proof of the great work done by the members of the order of St. Francis, we need look no further than our own school. In- deed the saintly ltolion must be deeply impressed as he looks down upon the members of his order e our teachers e and sees how they devote their time and efforts in training us, the Catholic youth of today. Our yearbook shows us as we are e not self assured youths out to trample the world, but seri- ous-minded men, intent on follow- ing the counsel of St. Francis, who was one of history's greatest ex- amples of man following the way of life. a pious young Italian the religious order of the wanted something deeper he found in his routine all his worldly possessions tirely to the aid of the Francis based his order poverty.

These directors have formed the fundamental rules and principles by which some eight hundred young Catholic Men of Bacon are educated in true Christian i eals. THE PROGRAM MANAGERS of Station R B H S are the men of Studio 24, who put in to action the policies and continuity which the Directors have assigned. A fine station, the modern studios, flawless principles for guid- ance, and eager capable actor-students, - all would be pretty nearly useless without these men to utilize and guide them.

This is Cliff Schulte your Troubadour editor proudly opening the Big Broadcast of '48 with the Personalities on Parade e a huge panoramic spectacle, consisting of five fascinating programs showcasing all! our outstanding activity students! Yes, in The Little Theater of the Air The Voice of the People, Rhythm in Review, Let's Go to Press, and The Quiz Kids, you will see the merry Men of Bacon, who have gained for themselves a larger script in the Big Broadcast through their eager and wholesome participation in the extra curricular activities. These activities are offered to all, but the student-artists you see now tele- vised on the TROUBADOUR screen are the opportunists who have capitalized on the opportunities and in so doing have captured the spirit of a well- rounded education.

Louella Parsons could find ample material in the history of the 1948 Roger Bacon Dramatic Guild tor a success feature on her Sunday night radio broadcast. Truely, this organization out Metroed Metro. The Senior Dramatic Guild was the leader in the school's intensified program of dramatics. Highlighting the tall and spring activity seasons 01 the school year with two outstanding three-act productions, the Guild also prepared a rollicking one-act farce for the night of the Senior Oratorical Contest. In November the Guild opened the season with the side-splitting comedy, Just Ducky. The players were aided by several 0 L A actresses. The comical qualities of Just Ducky were entwined about the remantic antics of a struggling father. Then on the night of the Oratorical Contest, the one-act super farce, And the Villain Still Pursued Her, with its flavor of the old time Mississippi ham-o-drama, again sent the audience into fits of uncontrollable laughter. But the climax of the Guild's 1948 Broadway season was ushered in, amid the patter of little April raindrops. Bolts and Nuts saw nothing but laugh provoking nonsense from beginning to end. Our own actors, again aided by their neighbors of O L A, turned the auditorium for three gay nights, into an entertainment Mecca tor the fun seeking friends of old R B. After this final hit, the stage door was reluctantly closed for the season. Fr. Ermin as the producer and Miss Angeline Uhrig as the directress were the peerless leaders. The student officers were David Wiimes, President; Robert Walters, Vice President; and Paul Palmisano, Secretary. Not merely congratulations for a job well done, for this is the theatre.

Tell it to Tommy Much more than a young farm team, struggling under the shadow of their older brothers of the Senior Guild, these embryonic Barrymores have shown that their frequency is just as powerful as that broadcast by their older coHeogues. y 1am to Wed 4W Christmas time was definitely a time of Junior Spartan Players glory. On the last afternoon of school before the holiday vacation, they presented the laugh riot, Who's Crazy Now? This one-acter was a masterpiece of absolute nonsense that revolved about the fantastic antics of a clever jewel thief. If the students had a Merry 'Xmas vacation, then they owe their thanks to the Junior Spartan Players for this initial note of mirth. Then in February, the Players decisively proved just how frequent their frequency could be when they rounded off the evening of the Annual Elocution Contest with their comical mockery of college life, Tell it to Tommy. Considering the reaction of those who filled the auditorium that eve, the Players must really have told Tommy in no uncertain terms. With these two smash hits written into their 1948 history, the Junior Spartan Players could proudly issue themselves feathers for their caps. The Out- standing success of the players this year was certainly due to the special efforts of each and every member lead by their fine director, Mr. Joseph Wi'ntering, aided by Fr. Owen and the student officers, Tom Willke, Hermon Hube, and Donald Mains. pwcymm .2: Ti 7112 voice 0; Me people HI can't understand how one can deny the wonderful job being done by our newspapers for teen agers.H -Lillian Heinichen But what about the obvious sensuous tone of the comics? eAl Bernard . . .

The date was January 12, 1948, and the occasion was a special one - a broadcast of the JUNIOR TOWN MEETING from our auditorium studio. The auditorium was filled to capacity with the entire student body of Roger Bacon, and the senior and junior departments from Our Lady of the Angels High School. Yes, when the WSAI moderator, George Palmer, introduced the tour speakers Jean Willke, Lillian Heinichen, Bob Perry, and Paul Palmisano, he had not quite realized what an outstanding program had been prepared. The wording of the topic to be discussed was: Are Newspapers Meeting the Needs of American High School Youth? This program was most interesting. It provided stimulating thought and much verbal action throughout all of the four speeches and from the beginning of the question period until activities come to a close with the ringing of the final Town Meeting bell. This broadcast provided an opportunity for many 0 Bacon boy and OLA girl to speak on the air waves for the first time II . . .

Florian Greve, the moderator of the Town Meeting Juniors here at Roger Bacon, on behalf of the school received a special note of commendation from Monsignor Carl Ryan, Superintendent of Diocesan Schools. It qu stated that Dr. Reavis of the Cincinnati Board of Education considered the Roger Bacon presentation one of the best of the year 1947-48. Monsignor Ryan also informed the school that the wire recording program of the program was to be used for demonstra- tion purposes for the classes in Teachers College.

Realizing that all the world's knowledge will not help a person it he knows not how to express it, our station con- ducted its first contest on February lst ,. on oratoricol contest wherein six senior and six juniors expreSSed their knowl- edge before the public. The contest, while appearing to be on isolated event to an outsider, is really the culmination of the senior-junior public speaking program. I Bob Perry, speaking on The Freedom of the Press,' was the most impressive entrant in the opinion of the judges, Fr. Vincent Kroger, O.F.M., former principal, Miss Angeline Uhrig, of OLA and Ted Leist of U.C. Poul Polmiscmo was runner up; Bob Senft was third place winner. Fr. Owen was lauded for his excellent direction. w71a; Waice of Me people 47mm in W goaeMMed. u . . .

JOHNSON While the Principal and his competent colleagues, the faculty members, controlled the happenings of the more than eight hundred students here at Station R B H S, the Student Union also helped admirably to support and better the revered name of Roger Bacon. Because of the new floating system a revision - the elimination of the minor officers, the class presidents e was effected. The Student Union however, performed valiantly with its abbreviated membership of fifteen men. With Fr. Ronald and Mr. Johnson showing the way with their unerring guidance, this student government body excelled in sponsoring student activities and supplying much needed influence and leadership among the students. 35mm in adieu - d4 Me 3W WW K iLeft to right around the circle:i D.

In providing entertainment the Student Union was second to none; numerous open dances and one of the most entertaining proms ever before enjoyed by any junior-senior class were but a few of its outstanding accomplishments. A clean-up campaign, doing away with the old student-monitor plan by putting the stu- dents on their honor, was inaugurated in Studio C tcateteriai with great success. The month of March was devoted to teaching the student body more about its Student Union and how, only through their interest and cooperation, could a student government succeed. Highlighting this very successful project was the Town-Meeting discussion stressing the importance of the election campaign as the way to an even better student government. With its third year written in the annals of school history the Student Union looks for- ward to bigger and better accomplishments, proud of its splendid record, but nevertheless realizing that the goal of perfection is still far ahead. iwllte 71m of Me eagle W cm folly W.

The height of the freshmon-sophomore speaking season was reached on February 15, when the annual Elocution Contest was held This is different from the Orotoricol Contest not only in that just the freshmen and sophomores are eligible, but also in that the participants may choose humorous topics whereas the senior oratoricol contestants must select serious subjects. The top honors for the evening were whisked away by Eugene Meister, effervescent sophomore, for his humorous rendition of Smoohotfer's Punctuation System. A pair of gifted freshmen, Melvin Hartman and Robert Sullivan were awarded second and third places respectively by the judges, Mrs. Merle Koenig, Father Guy Moews, O.F.M., and Mr. Henry Leist. Before the judges rendered their decision the audience was enlivened by a lough-provoking force, Tell it to Tommy, presented by the Jr. Spartan Players. Again our Glee Cfub graced the occasion with a medley of lilting tunes. Mr. Effler was in charge of the prOQram, one of the most successful in the history of the school. pm 73: TRWM m Reaiew'i Come in singing on the downbeat, clearly and on pitch.

Yes, it's that great aggre- gation of harmony blenders, solid choral senders, - The Glee Club Under the baton of Fr. Peter thirty-four virile voices, silvery tenors, rich baritones and resonant bosses, blended in perfect masculine harmony this year as never before. An index of the popularity of Station R B H S's Spartan Serenaders is the fact that in number of members, the '48 carolling caravan was exactly double that of last year's grOup. It might seem that everyone wanted to get into the Glee Club act, but this was not the case, for while everyone can sing, only those who maintain certain scholastic standing may join. The Glee Club thus was an incentive for many students to seek better marks, likewise club members were concerned with sustaining their marks so that their standing in this popular club would not be impaired. Not only in quantity did this choral club grow, but also did these happy harmonaires improve e but vastly. The painstaking efforts of the director Fr. Peter and the complete cooperation of the student singers were the contributing factors which enabled the club to scale to new musical heights. The only note of sadness struck in the Glee Club this year, was the untimely passing of Benny Murphy, our brialliant accompanist of last season. His earthly song of life is over, but his melody lingers on. . . . 8M. . . aaclzwha. Our motto is no longer bigger and better We're big enough e from now on just better. --FR.

In rhythmic precision, in step with the martial music, they follow the spirited and be-plumed drum major. What would holf-fime festivities consist of without the bond? We'll tell you. Shoving into the coke line, getting thirstier 0nd unhappier by the minute, wondering if the game is ever going to start again. No football game withOut the bond? Oh no, no one said that! But certainly not as much enjoyment. Not only did Fr. Bennet's boys give their customary fine performance, but two of them, Carl Mack and Norb Bruewer, were selected to play in the Navy Bond April 3rd. As the finale to the Rhythm in Review portion of the HPersOnolity Parade, The Big Broad- cast presents the R.B.'s of Roger Bacon e the Rhythm Boys of RB. Between acts of plays, at basketball half times, and before the social assemblies, it was the orchestra and its mellow syncapotions, some sweet, some swingy, which sent the spirits of the Boconites and their friends soaring, and started their tOes topping. Public recognition of the merits of our orchestra was manifested when our rhythm boys were invited to play a guest shot on the Cheviot F M Studio, Station W VA W. Their performance, as usual, was lauded and applauded by the station officials. About mid-year the leadership of this organization switched hands 05 Fr. Bennet passed the baton to Mr. Leist, who continued the proiseworthy work that was begun by our Spiritual Director. t'Don't just play - play with rhythm. --MR. LEIST RAM in Rew'ew an wane!

Without the unfoiiing assistance of the Camera Club our school publications would be faced with a similar lamentable situation for it is the film masterpieces of the camera clubbers which supply the - eye appeal to the printed pages - they furnish the punch that makes our school publications a hit with the student read- ers. Wherever news was in the making, the omnipresent camera Clubber was there focusing, shooting, punctuating each happening with a brilliant burst of light from his familiar flash bulb. Club president Jim Gustin, and Vice President John Wiesman were verily the Jim and Johnnie on the spot. If the Baconion needed a photo for a feature article - it the play cost needed pictures for publicity, the Camera Club was called in, and, as usual, a finished picture was soon produced. But of all assignments, the most mammoth was their part in The Big Broadcast. The Troubadour staff looked to the Camera Club to be their television department in the pro- duction The Big Broadcast e this reliable organization was a natural for the assembling, focusing, and screening of the hundreds of scenes which make the six prOQrams of the Big Broadcast 0t '48. While the Camera Club renders many services to other organizations, it still, however, finds time to fulfill its main purpose, namely, to study and practice the art of photography. Evidence of their achievement is Greg Schrand's winning of the first prize in the Annual Scholastic Art Exhibit and Paul Blesi's capturing of second prize. As if this were not enough, AI Argo came in for an honorable mention ribbon. Their three photographs are now entered in a National Art Contest at Carnegie In- stitute. The success of this trio alone is photographic proof of the great work Fr. Lucian, the club moderator, has ac- complished this year with his lens friends. First Row Heft to righti: A. Hudepohi, W.

Paschal to his editor. You're always up in the AIR about something or other.ll Yes, such lower class dailys as the New York Times or the Chicago Tribune were forced to lower their editorial standards during the days of inflation and labor shortages but the Bac0nian continued to propound its ideas and ideals and even went as far as to pro- vide an extra issue to prove that, after twenty years, the Baconian could still lead in the field of journalism. Fr. Paschal, as moderator, ran the Baconian with all the gusto of William Randolph Hearst at the height of his glory. During their fury of work just before a dead-line, the members at the staff assembled in room 29, posed a picture that would warm the heart of the great Steve Wilson of the II- lustrated Press.

Never before in its history was the Baconian as relentless and devastating in its editorial policy which caused almost as much contro- versy among the readers as any Win- chell broadcast. Again the faculty pen-portraits were considered the most interesting fea- ture of the magazine. Still, each part of the Baconian, including the art work, was treated in an entirely dif- ferent manner this year. Each issue was so different from those of previ- ous years that the Baconian was al- ways a fertile topic of conversation about the building. Some students approved of the new style, while others disapproved. Yet all eagerly awaited each issue. Thus caught in the main swirl of the times, it had to acquire the new look style of dress.

As in any good radio television presentation there must be producers and arrang- ers who present the show in a manner which appeals to the audience. We, the TROUBADOUR staffers are the producers of llThe Big Broadcast of '48. The focusing and arranging of the televised pictures, the author- ing of the continuity, the signing of the sponsors to back our production and lastly the narrating e is basic- ally all there is to producing the year- book. Yet, in gathering the material and facts, which we thought necessary to produce an accurate record of all the happenings of this school year, we somehow managed to consume con- siderable time and expend a good deal of energy. The staff had to review this data just as a composer reviews his music, giving as much at- tention to the small parts as well as to the large, hoping to obtain a har- mony in this presentation. It was details, details, and more details which seemingly make the task of the staff and the faculty moderator Mr. Fanning, one of unending labor. To you The Big Broadcast may be just another book. Not so much 0 book in the sense of a novel or biogra- phy, but rather just another yearbook to put up on the shelf with the other annuals of yours and your brothers before yOu. But in ten or fifteen or twenty years, when the Mrs. gets you out of your easy chair to clean up the attic, you just might run across this among the dusty boxes. You'll seat yourself down on the dusty floor, lean against that dusty carton of old Life magazines you meant to throw out last year and by the light of a 15 watt bulb, which is dusty, begin paging through the TROUBADOUR of 1948. Then you will smile faintly to yourself over how you played on im- portant role in the pages of the history of your high school days. Smile on fellow! Those ole school days of '47- '48 were pretty much all right; you have recaptured those happy moments once again by reviewing The'Big Broadcast of '48. Above: C. Schulte, H. Resp, J. Johns, W.

What had transpired in the l30's and early '40's. Well, the writing of the history of our station will soon begin. ln on- ticipation of the 25th Anniversary 01 R B HS in 1954, the Station Director and Managers have selected the B Scholastic Club to handle this voluminous project. Yes, the Quiz Kids of the brown B will soon delve into the school records in the Main Studio, search the files of the Alumni Association for data, re- view old BACONIANS ond TROUBA- DOURS. Now before our mike is a typical wearer of the brown B to give us his views on this club. Tell me, what does this club mean to you? Stud: Well, for me it meant a way to obtain a letter. As 0 lowly fresh- man, I looked up to the upper-class- men wheels. The biggest wheelers were those who wore letters. More important than this vein motive was the fact that the brown B best symbolized my idea for why I was coming to school e scholastics. Anncr: How did you happen to make the club? Stud: I got off to a good start in my freshman year by making the honor roll six consecutive times and so far I managed to keep my grades above the required level, you know, one above 80 and four above 85. Anncr: Suppose you've really hit the books pretty hard to maintain high grades? Stud: No, I apply myself, but I am no book worm. Don't get the idea that the '3 Club is a group of bespectacled book-toters. Many of the athletic stars are on the B Scholastic roster; such students as Sicking, Huffner, Fellerhoff, and Berning. Anncr: Thank you! Now, on the right is the whole club for recognition. Anncr: Our second guest is a member of the Triple A. C. Science Club, now tell us about this new group. Stud: Well, the Roger Bacon Chapter played on important part in all the functions of the Triple A. C. One of the R. B. contributions to its success was in the personality of Poul Palmi- sano, who served as president of this Archdiocesan-wide Club. Another contribution was the most outstanding program of the year presented in our auditorium on the night of February 12. The guest speaker, noted po- thologist Dr. William McKee Germain, proved that education can be made interesting, and aided by Messrs. McDonough, Lueke, Perry, Dearwater, and Bellman, presented a program thoroughly enjoyed by all present. Anncr: Have you benefited personally from membership in the club? Stud: The Triple A. C. has given me the opportunity to share my interest in science with other Catholic students throughout the city. The science demonstration. and social hours which follow have provided me with many educational and enjoyable evenings. Anncr: We appreciate your coming to our mike and enlightening us with your interesting ideas on the Triple A. C. There you are audience, the Triple A. C. Club . What's this? A note?

Anncr: Our third guest, on this inter- view with The Quiz Kids, is a scholar, who is indeed distinguished for he is one member of a club which has admitted to its ranks only six .. others. We refer to the select group, the Latin Club; we now welcome to our mike an ardent student of the classics. Stud: Spero hoc ad oures mogistri mei perventurum esse.1 Anncr: Well that's fine! of course, I don't understand all that you're saying but I'll have Troubadour Staffer Jim Johns e he's in the Latin Club too -: translate your remarks. To con- tinue e why do you think a boy would study Latin for four years? Stud: Discipulus moroliter, practice at- que praecipue mentoliter educari vult. Ad quod perficiendum Latina, ut dis- ciplina mentailis nodum superotom est.2 Anncr: We know that the Latin Club was established to promote interest in Latin. What is its activity this year? Stud: Proesidem Joonnem Madden ele- gimus. Colloquium bis in mense convocotum est. A proeside magister coloquii, qui sucrorite plena praest, designotur.

Dickerson, J. Madden and R. Kramer. James Johns' Translation: 1 I hope this reaches the ears of my teacher. 2 A pupil wants to be trained morally, practically, and above all intellectually. In attaining this, Latin, 05 a mental discipline has not yet been surpassed. 3 As president we chose John Madden. Twice a month a meeting is called. The master of the meeting is appointed by the president. This master is in charge with full outhority. This year we are devoting ourselves to Latin conversation. P.S. Hey announcer!

Lucianus Moderator Societas Latina Anncr: Every school has its star athletes, every school has its bright scholars, but only Roger Bacon has its Merit Students. Perhaps the most coveted distinction offered at Staton R B H S is the Merit Award. The conferring of merit decorations not only gratifies the student, not only thrills the girl friend, but also pleases the school, which takes considerable pride in awarding students for exceptional school spirit. More than any other school promotion the Merit System has helped to amplify the true Bacon esprit de corps. To attain the distinction of Merit Student one must acquire 2000 merit points by attending or partici- pating in athletic events, dramatic programs, and social functions e in other words, by doing every- thing that distinguishes a truly and interested active Bacon student and booster. As our final guest we present a Merit Award winner who in our opinion is worthy of the title Quiz Kid. Anncr: Does it take much effort to get an award? Stud: Well, not an exceptional amount. To me it seems that a student who fills the requirements for the Merit Award is merely doing what comes naturally. Who doesn't enjoy seeing a football or basketball game, or a play? Anncr: To be a merit winner a student doesn't need special talents does he? Stud: No, being a brain or braun helps, but being a solid school citizen is more important. Everyone can be and should be a merit winner. Remember that although the task of tabbing each and every merit for 816 boys is a mammoth project for our genial Merit Director, Fr. Ermin, still he is happiest when he is deluged with demands for merits by students, eager to become Meritorious Marauders and real Men of Bacon. Anncr: Thus, with the spirited words of our Merit student we end our interview program. In anticipation of this year's merit winners, we show the outstanding Merit Marauders. of '47.

WW 71w Secanci Jam - afaivyawwzmc :i 42 mi: M. 74a Rm 040444 Throughout the daily schedule of programs originating in the Roger Bacon Studios, there are many varied types, which thrill the students and arouse their imaginations. There is however, one broadcast which stands above the others, and whose merits far outshine the brilliance of the rest. This program is The Religious Hour. i Its writers, producers, and directors, who have devoted their lives to the most important work in the world, the saving of souls, day after day provide the instruction and Christian background needed by each student to gain the reward of Eternal Happiness. Added to the Religious Hour's main characteristic - that of religious instruction in the individual studios are many communal spiritual exercises: Mass on First Friday, the Annual Retreat, Lenten Services, and May De- votions. These exercises cement the faith of the students by infusing a greater love of God -- by instilling a desire for a more full life of grace. V They approach the partal; the doors part; the eight hundred slowly and reverently enter. It's the first day of school and it's the first Mass of the '47-'48 school year. Thus the Religious Hour begins and not until the approach of June will it end for The Religious Hour is the school year itself. The Mass is begun with the sign of the cross and thus is begun the school year. in every way during the ensuing nine months, the breath of Christ, the true religious atmos- phere, mingles and blends with the intellectual development of each Bacon boy. So healthful and bracing is this zephyr of religious atmosphere that by and by these boys are swelled into Men of Bacon. e Men because they are manly soldiers of Christ. Each First Friday brings the monthly Communiori in honor of the Sacred Heart. The eight hundred, as one, gather about the altar in the auditorium to receive the Body of Christ. January brings the annual retreat. For three days a reverend tial silence reigns over the halls as freshman, sophomore, junior and senior pray together as one. The forty days of Lent are verily forty days of increased religious devotion. The weekly religious assemblies and sermons followed by confessions certainly help the students to prepare many spiritual gifts for the risen Savior on Easter Sunday. Also during this time were held the spiritual read- ings over the public address system each morning. Whether it be the class recitation of the rosary; a lecture on the miracle of Fatima, or just the daily study of Christian living, the Roger Bacon student is cohstantly breathing that holy, that Christian atmosphere. Fr. Bennet Spiritual Director 712 W 429W 0; Wm edema 64m HH HI! One of the moments in the life of 0 Catholic High School student which makes a lasting impression is the annual retreat. During this time minds are put at ease by confession, prayer and the numerous sermons which are given by o well qualified retreat master, a priest who knows how to convey his thoughts so that they are easily understood by all those who take part and one who has a thor0ugh knowledge of all the things which can help, or hamper, o soal attaining its eternal reward. No one can ever attempt to estimate the good that is performed by a retreat - it is so infinite. Some souls can be saved from the everlasting pains of hell, while others can be fortified thus making the hard road to heaven much easier, merely by making a good retreat. Because of the great amount of spiritual and sometimes natural good which can be the result of a retreat, each year Roger Bacon holds one for the members of the student body. This year the post of retreat master was copably filled by the Reverend Father Cyril Georgel, O.F.M. - am Reheat. If at any time during the school year l felt so close to God as I could, it was during the retreat. There is something about a retreat that makes a person feel good, through and through. I only wish that a whole week could be devoted to the retreat. A Sophomore. I tried to make the Honor Roll six consecutive times. Five in a row was the best I could do. I believe, however, that I made the Retreat Honor Roll all four times. A Senior It is my opinion that during the retreat the best classroom in the school is the auditorium. This year our '48 retreat was splendid.- A Junior As one of the '48 graduates, I realize now that many things taught me in my freshman, sophomore, and junior classes have slipped from my memory but four things which will be difficult to forget are my four retreats. They will live long in my memories of R. B. A Senior The annual Roger Bacon High School retreat this year of '48 was a very inspiring event in many ways. It was especially welcome to me because it gave me a chance to retreat as it were from the rigors of books and learning, and to observe the spiritual side of life more closely. A Sophomore. The retreat gave me the opportunity, as a Catholic student, to review my past faults; be sincerely sorry for these misdemeanors and make strong resolutions to do better in the future A Junior WWW swam l, w. t, t 3 l :1 i-swu rnwvav gr I r Row 1 U. to rJ: E.

These boys composed the Religious Council. Their primary duty is to keep the parish priest tuned in on the happenings at R B H S and conversely, to keep R B H S posted on all parish events which concern the R B H 5 student from that particular parish. A time-worn saying tells us that a man is judged by the company he keeps. It would be well for more students to cultivate the friendship of the members of the Religious Council. They are a reserved, serious-minded lot, who, by their own good example, have encouraged their fellow parish classmates to be faithful to their religious duties by re- ceiving the sacraments regularly. Numbered among their duties are e checking the ot- tendance at monthly Communion Masses e and delivering report cards to the parish priest. Under the leadership of our spiritual Director, Fr. Bennet this organization did much to promote a more fervent religious attitude among the students. Their representative to the Student Union was Arthur Middendorf, a fine example of those students enrolled in the Council. Fr. Edmund C.S.M.C. Moderator THE C.S.M.C. The Catholic Mission Crusade program of this year was sparked by two main things e a leading list of activities and a star cast of thirty-five members. The direction of the C.S.M.C. forces was proticiently handled by Fr. Edmund. A trio of responsible seniors, Ray Butler, Walt Pieper, and Dave Henning respectively filled the executive offices of president, vice president, and secretary. While the activities of the C.S.M.C. are not heralded so much as those of other clubs, still each of their important duties was ful- filled with finesse and efficiency. The opera- tion of a religious stand in the cafeteria e the custody of the confessionols e the care and decoration of the alter, the distribution and collection of Lenten mite boxes .... and the maintenance of a static 0t ushers for our religious functions - were a few of their responsibilities. This year of '48 brought Robert Perry to the stage as our representative to the annual C.S.M.C oratorical contest. In a modest way the C.S.M.C. members with the support of the students, have contributed to needs of the missions through their prayers and alms. Indeed, in the history of the Roger Bacon C.S.M.C., the '48 volume is a tame recording many purposeful deeds. 4mg W, v 712 3a.; 8W 0; 24: , 724M 71m 74m! 04m - 71w 35W SW LIKE ALL RADIO STATIONS we have our Daytime Serials Monday through Friday, but we differ from other serial stories.

Zumbahlen, football star, and Miller, basketball wiz, answered for 1 D when sports roll was called. They may be heard from about 1950 or so. In the elocution contest four boys,Carraher, Biehm, Gratsch, and Beuerlein carried the room banner. Although none of these boys won, they had the acclaim of the class.

Remember, when our program is presented, that no matter how many games are won or lost or how good or bad the team 'Igappens to be, only one thing is of utmost importance e that inimitable Spartan never-say-die spirit. More often than not, 0 Bacon team, whether football, basketball, baseball or track, gives a creditable account of itself. Exemplifying the best sportsmanship, the Spartans play clean but hard; they never give up, realizing that in days to come the only way to success is to take a defeat with heartfelt courage and then try again. In winning, success is taken in stride as a courageous accomplishment. Presenting now . . . The Spartan Cavalcade! REV. JORDAN TELLES, O.F.M. Athletic DirectOr MR. LEO CROWE Basketball Coach MR.

Under the reins of a new coaching staff, Roger Baconts 1947 football team continued torepresent our school with the caliber of sportsmanship and football to which we have become accustomed. From the three score and fifteen that showed uptor the initial practice an August 20 down to the streamlined 28 successful gridders, Bacon was represented by a team of hustlers, who tussled with the adversary down to the final gun, the final game. Mr. Emmet Crowe returned to Bacon to take over the head coach's job he had relinquished in 1940. To aid Mr. Crowe with a youthful inexperienced team was his brother, Leo. Mr. Walter Orneila retained his position as reserve and freshman coach. Opening the season on September 14, in weather better suited for swimming our perspiring pigskin taters lost a tough 7-0 decision to a powerful Hamilton Catholic aggregation at Hamilton. For their next game on September 19, the Spartans journeyed across the Ohio for their traditional tilt with Coving- ton Holmes. For three quarters the Bacon gridmen fought on even terms and then lead midway in the 4th period. But a late tally by Holmes sent the Spartans home the loser by the narrow margin of one point. A week later, in the first inter-Ieague doubleheader at X.U., Roger Bacon won its first game, downing Walnut Hills 18-0. Bacon's all around offense, sparked by the broken field running of Stogie Folz was too much for an outclassed but game Eagle eleven. Following the Walnut Hills victory, the Spartans dropped two games to Kentucky schools. St. X. iLouisvillei defeated Bacon 7-0, and a week Berning, W. Stewart, K. Lammers, Mr. E. Walter Sweeney, F. B. later Dayton, Ky., took the Spartans, 13-8. Newport Catholic, third Kentucky opponent in a row, fell before Bacon 13-0. The run- Bill Stewart, G. ning of Walt Sweeney and Pat Haverland, and the passing of Don Stevens were par- ticularly impressive in this game. On October 24, the Spartans showed more class and spirit than ever before displayed this season. They engaged the strong Western Hills Maroons. The game, hip and tuck all the way, with both teams fighting for victory ended in a 7-7 tie. Everyone could see that our fighting Brown and Whites were primed for the coming Catholic League encounter. The following Friday, October'31, Bacon met Purcell undefeated in three years of league competition and tied only by Bacon's '45 team in 31 games.

ELDER R a .13 14 .51 XAVIER playing his usual sterling game, and Bill Rethrnan sparkling with his pass-receiving, the Spartans sent Purcell into the league's dungeon of the defeated, 19-7. An old debt was paid the following Sunday in the annual GCL doubleheader when Bacon took Elder into the fold 13-6. It was a long time -- 1943 to be exact 4 since the Spartans had been able to dOWn their old jinx, the Purple Panthers. In the final game of the season, a highly favored Roger Bacon team loSt to a fight- ing St. X. club, 14-13. The winning seven points was scored in the last three seconds of the game. Quite a stroke of irony to lose possession of the championship in the last three seconds of the season. By the time the Cincinnati Post had announced its annual AH-Star team, interest in pigskin had already waned. King Basketball was ascending the steps to the throne for his annual winter reign. With pride we note, however, that the AIl-Star board elected Walter Sweeney as Don La Rosa, G. the outstanding back in the city. Jack Berning, Bill Stewart, and diminutive Don LaRosa received honorable mention. Tom Sicking, T. Thus the 1947 football season ended. With hopes for future fine teams in their minds the Spartan rooters settled back to watch the televisiOn transmission of the Spartan basketeers of 1947-48. You can't be champs all the time. This was the bitter lesson the I47-'48 basketball season taught. With the District Championship trophy locked in our trophy case and with three juniors from that champ five new seasoned seniors on this year's squad, things looked rosy out in the land of beer and pretzels. But this vision was to fade when our cage team, incapable of hitting a definite stride, presented Spartan rooters with an in- teresting, though at times, spasmodic brand of basketball. In the curtain-raiser of December 3, Bacon whipped a weak Ludlow five, but a lump formed in the throats of Bacon boosters when Walnut Hills and Dayton, Ky. tagged the Spartans with two defeats. The defeat of Norwood served as an introduction to the game that eventually proved to be the high- light of the season. This was the game of December 23 in which the highly touted Hamilton Catholic Rams were entertained on our home floor. It appears as it Bacon had read neither the Rams' press clippings nor the book of etiquette for they defeated their guests 40-38. This was the only defeat suffered by the Hamiltonians until they lost the final game of the state tournament to Findlay. Don Huffner, F. Early in the new year, our nomads of the hardwood journeyed out to N. College Hill for an invitational tourney wherein Hughes and Maderia on two successive evenings took the Bacon caravan into camp to the tunes of 38-36 and 38-35 respectively. But our basketeers snapped out of their slump on January 6, by defeating Covington Catholic I Pete Rethman, F. 51-48. Bacon opened its GCL play on a pleasant note by cutting down the Cavaliers 50-4I. Losses were then inflicted by Coving- ton Holmes and Elder before the Spartans arose to avenge a previous defeat by downing Hughes, 33-29. In the third double header the Sycamore Street sharp shooters, the eventual league champs, did battle with the Baconites and the latter left the X Fieldhouse the loser 40-54. A growing basketball power in Cincinnati, Cen- tral vocational, was next to give Bacon its lumps. The Spartans then caught fire and tramped over St. Bernard, Western Hills, Monroe, Country Day, and Purcell before falling to Lockland Wayne. In the fifth GCL doubIe-header of the season, the Spar- tans were out jousted by the purple warriors from Price HiII. One of the bright spots was the annexation of the mythical St. Bernard championship by our hoopsters, who downed the Titians for the second time this season on February 27, 61-36. Our last game was on overtime loss to a hustling St. X five in the GCL double- header finale. In the first district tournament Seated U. to r.l: Standing: E. Uhl, Mgr., S. Pettko, R. Schaefer, R. Berning, game, the Spartans found they could not defeat Purcell three times a season and were dropped by the Cavaliers 59-46. As Alexander Pope said, Hope springs eternal within the human breast. Since there will be six well experienced juniors and two sea- soned sophomores returning for service next year, the followers of our fabulous hoop men look to the future with that optimism that can spring eternally only at Roger Bacon. The shaping of this bright outlook must be attributed to Mr. Leo Crowe, our capable coach, whose tireless efforts produced the best combination of present Spartans, and at the same time developed junior material which will ring dividends on Our '48-'49 score board. Next year's team will be better; this year's team was good 4- not the best, for after all you can't be champs all the time, not even at RB. R. Leigh, D. Kattus, W. Rethman, D. Huffner, F.

We d'ofic our battered lids to our cheerleaders, who rain or shine, win or lose, were at every game, giving their all as their big brothers the Spartan athletes, fought to victory. Yes, the cheerleaders of '48, and their able tutor, Fr. Conan, are certainly deserving of this humble praise. Again for the third consecutive year, our cheerleaders have established themselves as one of the best group of this type in the city. 0 CHEER LEADERS Row 1 U. to rJ: K. Henderer, D.

But our tank men enjoyed only mediocre success in winning two dual meets from Norwood and in dropping tussels to Withrow, West Hi, and Walnut Hills. In the GCL pool, Bacon rested comfortably on the bottom. However, through the efforts of Mr. Ornellc, our swimming coach, copoble underclossmen performers, Tombragel, Niemon and Mercurio will be available for competition next year. Wt , .m. mm mm.

O BASEBALL Perhaps the brightest spot on the '48 Spartan Cavalcade team is the baseball team. Mr. Leo Crowe has undoubtedly developed one of the best nines yet to represent R.B. A power-plus outfit in the willow-wielding dept, the diamond men in the first four games scored a total of 27 runs. Berning, Roeckers, and Kottus thus for, lead the hit porode. Powerful at the plate, the team also has one of the best hurling staffs in the city. Under the tutoroge of Mr. Henry Leist, our moundmen have been almost unbeatable. Don Mottscheck, oce hillmon, has to his credit 0 2 hit shutout against St. X. Veteran Herb Bellman, one of the best portsides in the league, Don Lomping and Rich Schoefer, round out a staff that can match the hurling of any of our opponents. O GOLF Probably the toughest assignment the moshie team of the year had was finding capable men who could hold their own against top-flight competition. With the stars of last year's squad deported, underclossmen niblickers stepped up and teed off for Bacon, Only holdovers were Huffner, Butler and Yenke. Upon this trio hinged the success of this year's squad in this popular pre-summer sport. 0 TENNIS The '48 netters had almost 0 complete rebuilding job on its hands due to serious loss of material through graduation channels. With Bobby Lommert and Don Huffner the only returning men with a considerable amount of experience, the '48 courtmen were mainly underclossmen, who have not proven themselves on the actual firing line. However, after a considerable amount of hard work twhenever weother permittedi the boys rounded into shop. Pohlkamp, Houser ond O'Donnel proved to be valuable assets to the squad. o TENNIS TEAM Row I: R. Pohlkomp, J. O'Donnell, R. Lommert, R. Doeren, J. Rampelio, Row 2: T. Houser, J. Rohling, D.

One of the primary functions of athletics is to develop comradeship among the partici: pants. Sports performers have the advantage over their non-athletic associates in the formation of strong bonds of friendship through participation on the field of friendly strife. At Roger Bacon this fellowship is fostered not only on the gridiron, court and diamond, but also in an organiation of athletes called the HB Athletic Club. The Bll Athletic Club is an organization comprised of all those who have earned a major athletic award of Roger Bacon. Although its express purpose is to instill in the athletes a deep understand- ing of the ideals and high standards of sportsmanship, the 8'1 Club also serves as strong bond between fellow Spartans. Our Athletic Director, Fr. Jordan, is faculty moderator, who with the help of annually elected officers, plans the Club's yearly activities which include two initiations, several dances, and the annual B Athletic Club picnic. l'B Club Officers Tom Sicking ...............

'l 0m 4m I'M 0 THE PTA Every fourth Thursday of the month a gratifying percentage of mothers abandon the pots and pans, and their favorite radio serials and journey to Roger Bacon for an informal afternoon gathering. At these meetings the mothers can talk over their sonis school problems with the individual teachers, those faculty members who know their sons best. Co-0perotion between the home and the school is thus effected. An ever varying, ever entertaining social hour is held after each meeting proper. Over light refreshments our dear mothers enjoy casual discussions varying from the new look in clothes, to the high cost of groceries. Some will still linger on the subject of how the PTA can best play its part along with the DFT and the Alumni in arranging and conducting the Fall Festival and the Spring Festival. 0 THE DFT The DFT is the beer and pretzel version of the ice cream and cookies PTA. Meetings, held once a month are well attended by dads who are eager and sincere to do their part in furthering the interests of Roger Bacon This is just one way in which duds show their appreciation of the benefits which their sons are receiving from a Catholic education. After each meeting, entertainment and refreshments complete an evening profitably spent. 0 THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION The Roger Bacon Alumni Association is now in full flower. The goal of the association is to promote higher Catholic education; to keep alive those ideals and principles that each graduate takes with him when he leaves Roger Bacon; to promote good fellowship among the Alumni; and to aid in every possible way the welfare of Roger Bacon. We utter no idle boost when we say Roger Bacon has the largest, the most active, the best Alumni Association in the country. THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Seated U to rt: J, Lehrter, M. Stricker, J.
