x'1947 Published by the Fifty-iourth class to be graduated from ROMAN CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL. America's oldest free Catholic High School, located in downtown Philadelphia. Pennsylvania. PURPLE MID GOLD TO THOSE IIHIO GHUE THE MOST... It is truly with c smile on our lips and c1 tear in our eyes that we, the senior class, dedi- cate this edition of the yearbook. For more than fitty-iive years, since the founding of Roman Catholic High, the reputation and scholastic standing of the school have been enhanced by the zealous work of a group of lay professors,, and it is to these unselfish men that we proudly dedicate our book. The group of professors. bearing the tremendous tasks of teach- ing and of administration for the first few years of our school's existence, has executed their tasks admirably. Progressing slowly at first, they built up the enrollment of the school. gen- erously giving their time and advice to the students. Carefully training the young men with whom they were associated, they moulded them into staunch Catholics and upright citizens, leaders of their communities; notable among whom are Archbishop Byrne of Santa Fe, Judge Flood of Common Pleas Court, Dr. Luchesi, director of Hahnemcmn Hospital, and the late Dr. Bonner. Gradually they saw the reward of their work in their distinguished graduates. When they were augmented by an increasing flow of religious professors, the lay men gladly worked in union with them. The lay professors, as the years rapidly passed, found their numbers decreasing through retirement or death. Those still on the faculty gave up regular class work, and were appointed to administrative posts. Recent years have found retirements more numerous, until, with the retirement of Professor Williams in 1946, we lost our last lay professor, the last link in the chain with the dead days in the past. To our retired professors we say heartily, Well donel ; and to those who sleep in Christ, we sin- cerely add, Requiesccmt in pace. IllE DEDICHTE THIS VEHBBOOH The death of Professor James A. McNulty, following so quickly on the heels of the re- tirement of Professors William Lawless and Homer Williams brings us to the end of an era. The lay professors of Catholic High are gone. These three professors were the last representatives of a large number of self-sacrificing laymen who gave years of loyal and devoted service to the cause of Catholic education. The teaching careers of Professors McNulty, Lawless, and Williams totaled nearly a century and a half of service to the students of Catholic High! We should feel humble in the presence of such a record. The record of the late Professor McNulty is typical of the records of all three. He joined the faculty of Catholic High in 1891. He studied law and was admitted to the Bar in 1897, but Professor McNulty never prac- ticed law. He preferred to remain here at Catholic, High, giving to the thousands of boys with whom he came in contact a small part of his own great reservoir of learning. He 'was appointed Registrar of the school in 1902, and in later years he served as Bursar, and taught Business Law, Arithmetic, and American History. Professor McNulty retired January 1, 1946, after fifty-four years of un- swerving service to this school. In January, 1947, Professor McNulty passed on to his much deserved reward. His memory will live on with the alumni of Catholic High. Will the high school students of today be ready to fill the places left vacant by these men? Does the modern high school bring today's student, near the high standard of these great men of yesterday? We believe that it does. In the following pages we will attempt to justify tour belief. What constitutes a well-rounded Catholic gentleman? Most important is a thorough knowledge of his religion, applied to his daily life. In his four years at Catholic High, the student receives a fine grounding in the beliefs and practices of his faith. The life of Christ, the history of His Church, the seven Sacraments, faith in practice, and Apolo- getics are all presented to the student ,at various times. It was Voltaire who stated that mathe matics is the best training that the mind can a have. In this department the student is ofe fered Algebra I and II, Plane and Solid Geo- metry, and Trigonometry. This valuable training in precision rounds out a second side of the Catholic Gentleman. The understanding of science in its sev- eral branches; physics, electricity and ma- chines, chemistry, radio, and mechanical drawing gives the student a basis for under: standing the amazing and fascinating laws of nature. An appreciation of American and English literature and an understanding of the laws of grammar supply the Catholic gentleman poise and self-confidence in his social life. If the student plans to enter the business world immediately after graduation, the commercial course will give him the neces- sary training to reach a position where'his training in Christian social principles will have prepared him to do his part in estab- lishing a truly Christian social order. To each graduate the question presents itself, Will you take advantage of the oppor- tunities that lie before you? Will you meas- ure up to the standards set by Professors McNulty, Williams, and Lawless? lETtS,MEET THE NEIGHBORS Cathonc High is the most centrally located high school in the city of Philadelphia. Ly- ing just three blocks north of City Hall, it can be considered almost the center of the city. Iust across the street stands the Key- stone Building, and one block to the north stands the Inquirer Building. Of course City Hall can be seen by a glance to the south. By looking west from one of our upstairs windows we can see the dome of the Cathedral, where it stands on the beautiful Parkway. But in general the neighborhood is not picturesque. It is an industrial and business neighborhood, and industrial and business neighborhoods are never beautiful. Never the'less, it is the heart of the city and we are proud to be located where we are. AT 2:45 ONE 0! the busiest sections ol the city is the Race-Vln Station of the subway. Judging from the books they carry. thes students appear as if they are going to do some studying. THE CATHEDRAL of 55 Peter 5 Paul, located on the Parkway tour blocks from Catholic High. symbolizes the strong Catholic spirit in our city, at which Catholic High is one result. ROMAN CATHOLIC is situated in the midst of surtoundings such as these. Although it is dwarfed by the surrounding buildings it stands out as the beginning of tree Catholic Education in this country.

Lo- cated at a busy intersection o! the city, the school im- pxeues upon its students the need tor caretulness in The fact that there has never diamiual lrom school. been a serious accident during dismissal demonstrates this very well. Good order is another keynote at the daily exodus. ANOTHER DAY begins. and as usual, all the students are early,-tor lunch period, that is. The number of late comers has been greatly reduced. however, since the fitst few months of school. so that the early morn- ing subways are always jammed with school-bound Cahillites. E; .gtwwxm. THERE'S GlOIW Il'l TBIIDITIOII Roman Catholic has one intangible quality which the other Catholic high schools do not have. This is tradition. Tradition is evident in everything con- nected with our school. Since we were the first Catholic free high school in the city, in fact the first in this country. we were able to secure as our own the royal colors, Purple and Gold. There is tradition in the great number of distinguished men comprising our alumni, there is tradition in our stairs grooved by the feet of the students of fifty-seven years, many of whom have walked on the paths oftsuc- cess. We have other traditions, too. The bust of Thomas E. Cohill which seems to scan thoughtfully the faces of passing students, our tower with its terrible reputation, and the rock which rests in the schoolyard, oblivious to the passing years. Tradition is not stable. It continues to grow. We expect the class of '47 to add a few lines to our long and glori- ous honor roll. BEFORE THE BEGINNING ot the school day. a few students compare their homeworks, to correct any mis- takes they may have made in their calculations. Al- though the copying of homework is strongly discour- aged at Roman, the students sometimes by-pass this regulation by a comparison at work. FOWLER, JOYCE. AND BRENNAN of the senibr class obtain some information from Miss McDermott and Miss Hunigan o! the office force. These two young ladies are always happy to look up any data required by students from the tiles.

HIS EMINENCE DENNIS CARDINAL DOUGHERTY The career of His Eminence, Dennis Cardinal Dougherty, has always been identified with the cause of Catholic educatiOn. He began his studies for the priesthood at St. Charles Seminary, Overbrook, and continued them in the North American College, Rome. After his ordination he taught at St. Charles from 1891 to 1903. Cardinal Daugherty was the first American Bishop of Nueva Segovia, Phil- ippine Islands. In the course of his distinguished and colorful career he has also served as BishOp of Iaro in 1908 and Buffalo in 1915. In 1918 he returned in Philadelphia as Archbishop. He was raised to the Cardinalate in 1921, and he celebrated the twenty-fitth anniversary of his elevation last year. Under the guidance of Cardinal Dougherty, the Philadelphia Catholic School System has grown to be the model of the nation. As President of our board of trustees he has come to be closely identified with Roman Catholic. The faculty and student body entertain a strong feeling of affection toward His Eminence, and wish him many more years of success in his Episcopacy. MOST REVEREND I'. CARROLL MCCORMICK Bishop McCormick was born in Phila- delphia in the parish of Our Mothex ot Sorrows on December 15. 1907. He began his studies for the priesthood at Overbrook. and later. he was sent to Borne for their completion. Two years after his ordination by Cardinal Dough- erty in the Basilica of St. John Latexan. Bishop McCormick returned to the United States where he was appointed Vice-Chancellox in September, 1334. In March. 1936. that same year, lhe was named Domestic Prelate by Pope Pius XII. His consecration as Titular Bishop of Ruspae and Auxiliary Bishop to His Eminence took place in the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul on Wednesday. April 23. 1947. His Eminence. D. Cardi- nal Daugherty. consecrated the new Bishop. THEIR EHCEllEMIES... MOST REVEREND HUGH L. LAMB His Excellency. the Most Reverend Hugh L. Lamb. a staunch promoter and supporter oi Catholic edu- cation in Philadelphia. studied in preparation 10! the priesthood at Saint Charles Borromeo. Overbrook, and later in Rome at the North American College, and the Catholic University. at Washington. D. C. He returned as a professor to Saint Charles tor a few years until his'appointment in 1921 as Secre- tary to His Eminence, the Cardinal. His zealous work brought him further recognition and, in 1923. he was appointed Assistant Superintendent of Schools. and domestic prelate in 1927. In 1933, he was consecrated Titular Bishop of Helos and Auxili- ary Bishep of Philadelphia, and.iin that capacity still continues his work for the improvement oi the school system in this city. REVEREND JOHN I. GRAHAM. D.D. Assistant Superintendent REVEBEND IOHN I. HAYDT. I.C.D. Assistant Superintendent Of all the Catholic high schools in our city, Roman Catholic is without a-doubt the most intimately associated with the dio- cesan administration. The Superintendent of Schools, the Rev. Edward M. Reilly, J.C.D., and two assistant superintendents, the Revs. John J. Graham, D.D., and John I. Haydt, I.C.D., all served as teachers at Catholic. The late Msgr. Bonner was one of our most distinguished alumni, one whose name will always be revered in the annals of our school. Father Reilly was at R.C.H.S. for four years, during which time he taught Plane Geometry and acted as moderator of the Student Counr OUR lEHDEBS . . . REVEBEND EDWARD M. REILLY. I.C.D. Diocesan Superintendent of Schools cil. Father Graham was a popular membel of our faculty until he left us in 1945. During his stay here Father taught History and Latin. Before leaving in 1945, Father Haydt taught Trigonometry and Solid Geometry and supervised the store. Since these three priests were once members of Our faculty, we feel sure that they feel a great amount of affection for Catholic High. We in turn feel a great deal of respect for these ex-profes- sors of ours, and we feel that the Catholic schools of our Archdiocese can face the fu- ture with confidence, knowing that their lives rest securely in the hands of these capable men. WW OUR HECTOR . . . The efficient direction of a school the size of Catholic High is no easy task. In addition to the important issues to be decided, there are countless small details to be handled. Fortunately, we have a capable administra- tion well able to cope with any problems which may arise. Father John A. Cartin, ou'r Rector, is cm example of the finest type of Catholic High alumnus. A member of the class of 1916, Father Cartin arrived here in 1938. Since then, his earnest labor in our behalf has endeared him to all of us. Father Frederic I. Moors, our Curricu- lum director, regulates our roster system smoothly and efficiently, and aids our stu- dents in meeting their individual problems. Father Charles Devlin, after teaching here for ten years, was appointed Prefect of Dis- cipline in September, to succeed Father Wil- liam Kane. In his one year of service Father Devlin has shown his efficiency when con- fronted with disciplinary problems. As Bursar, Father George Concannon's duties range from the supervision of complex REV. IOHN A, CARTIN, 5.3 mun ngcfon financial arrangements to the disposal of lost pencils and lunches. We congratulate our administration on a difficult job well done. SINCE FATHER CARTIN was appointed rector of Catholic High in 1938. he has endeared himlelt in the hearts of the student body. His way has not always been easy, since that o! liquidating unfortunate students is one of his unhappy tasks. Father may be seen beginning some 0! the extensive correspondence that falls to one in his office. OUR HDMIIIISTIHITORS . . . REV. FREDERICK I. M00115, 5.3.. 3.5.

WHEN OUR PHOTOGRAPHER caught Fathers Fitz- patrick and Kenny. they were discussing Spanish liter- ature in the second-floor faclulty-room. No school in the city of Philadelphia can boast a more talented faculty. Ever since its inception in 1890, this school has been rivaled by none in its choice of teachers. From the great lay teachers. Professor Mc- Nulty and Professor Williams, all the way down to the latest member, Father Henry, this school's faculty'has always comprised very able and talented teachers who have spent themselves to further our cause. Several of our present faculty members studied in Rome. All the others had the benefit of an education at Saint Charles Borromeo. Therefore, there are few high school professors in the city better prepared to pass on their valuable information. A good many of our teachers are experts in their field. Father Ostheimer has written four books on social studies. Certainly men of this caliber are the best teachers that we could want. Priests and men from this school have been rewarded for their ability to teach with posts in colleges, in the seminary and with high administrative positions. We do not appreciate at this time the behefits of their education but when we get out in the world we will look back with thankful eyes to the teachers wlfo worked so earnestly to develop us into good Cath- olic gentlemen and scholars. It is with pride that we salute these great professors and the ones before them that set the precedent which has been followed all these years. If their successors carry on this tradition, we will be sure of the best teachers for our children. V solnsinenerone, mica vs nu We must give a reason for the Faith that is in us. This is a challenge that every Professor in the Religion Department prepares his students to meet through'knowle'dge and 'loye of God. The Life of Christ shows forth the Divinity of the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity and a wealth of eternal truths. 'It is a story of love. The Love of the Master for the servant is shown on' Calvary's heights. It is shown in the generosity of the Redeemer through the gift of the Sacraments. We study the Life of Christ in order to become better followers of the Master. We learn that the road becomes rough at times and that help is needed and that Christ has made available such a help-the Sacraments. We desire by God's help to know Him, serve Him and love Him.

ClHSSICS, ClllllSES, MID COMPDSI One thing of which we can truthfully boast at Romcm is our fine staff of English profes- sors. For the sophomores there are Father Kimble and Father Brennan, for the juniors. Father Fitzpatrick and Father King, and the seniors have Father O'Connell all to them- selves. They teach us our qerunds, parti- ciples, correct grammatical construction, forms of negation, etc., for they clearly real- ize that the criterion for a gentleman is his ability to handle and speak English cor- rectly. This is ct course which we live in our everyday lives, reading and speaking, constantly improving our knowledge. Our course is not straight grammatical rules; we receive the dose diluted with some literature. For many, this may be-the redeeming por- tionlof the English courses. We read all the classical authors and poets, Keats, Shelley, Shakespeare, Byron, Thackeray, as well as the contemporaries, Gilbert Keith Chesterton, Franz Werfil, etc., so that, at the completion of the senior year, we have completed a well rounded course of English and Literature.

The freshmen begin with Elementary Alge- bra. They are taught how to solve many problems with the help of factoring and equations. Their motto is let X : the un- known. For the more experienced sopho- mores, Plane Geometry is presented with its lines qnd angles, triangles and quadrilat- erals. Many theorems and corollaries are studied. Who can recite the axioms or postu- lates? Remember them? The upperclassmen have Algebra again with another year of x-y, but more advanced this time. Since we are older we naturally need harder stuff. And we get it! Finally we reach what we thought as freshmen to be the pinnacle of perfectionw Trigonometry and Solid Geometry. This year is the hardest since for the most part We must Visualize these problems in space. To those who wish to study any form of Engineering in College, Mathematics is most essential since the majority of work in this field is composed of Math.

Business English IV THE HIST IS PROLOGUE Perhaps the most important phase of the preparation for entrance into the world as cm upright citizen is the social sciences courses given at Roman. The only course which outshines social science in impor- tance is religion. Realizing this, our Father Ostheimer has written a book entitled Chris- tian Principles and National Problems com- bining the questions of the world with the answer of the Church. This book has since become a standard textbook at several sur- rounding high schools. The groundwork for the fourth year's study of national problems is found in the first, second, and third year courses. As a fresh- man. the students are taught the first at- tempts at government in the early civiliza- tions of the world. The theories of the Greeks, Romans, and the barbaric tribes are contrasted. History of Pennsylvania and Civics are taught in the second year. The complexities 'of our executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government are made clear to- gether with an insight into the motivating aims of the fathers of our country. The third year consists in learning c1 His- tory of Our Country. The students are taught about the birth, growth, and develop- ment of our country into the world power it is today. A deeper understanding of the true greatness of our country- enkindles in us a pride for what our country was yester- day, and is today. REV. WALTER W. LAUT, A3. Religion IV nnv. MICHAEL E.

Latin, the ancient tongue, joins hands with the more modern languages of Spanish, French and German. The young and ambitious freshman is startled to learn that men of culture lived before his day, perhaps too cultured. The wise Sophomore hcxs his fill of wars. Why didn't someone start this slogan of perma- nent peace before Caesar's time, he pro- tests. Commentaries on the Gallic Wars hcts wounded his pride. There are moons and groans from the Juniors and Seniors as they try to display the oratory of Cicero or the composition of Vergil. The humble student accepts the Mon Guide , his textbook in the French class. He works vigorously trying to master the rules of grammar and gain a fair size vocab- ulary. This, you see, will come in handy when he is presented with ch France et les Francaises. Spanish and German complete the stu- dents' appetite for knowledge of other lands and customs. The former satisfies him about the people in the other Americas and the latter about the nation we conquered and now must aid in rebuilding.

This instruction includes the use of the color wheel, the basic laws of per- spective, and some simple drawings. If a student should find himself interested in art, he can pursue his hobby by joining Father Brown's Art Club. Besides decorating and beautifying our school. an art course devel- ops the student's appreciation of culture and may provide him with an opening to a noble profession.

Perhaps the most important room in Catholic High is our library. located on the first floor and presided over by Father Richard Walsh. Our library has a fine reference department, containing books on Religion, History, Biography, Science, Social Studies and Classical Literature; as well as a constantly growing collection of modern fiction and nonfiction. Since research is almost as important as class work, a well-maintained library is vital to a well maintained school. Our library, although small, is compact and just the thing for efficient research. We thank Father Walsh for the trouble he has gone to to provide us with this efficient and necessary supplement to our class work. MISS MARGARET D. McDERMOT'l' MISS MADELINE U.

Well, maybe the poem is not exactly correct, but it describes fairly well the pre-exam nights spent by many of the students. Only now do the students remem- ber how .much they've forgotten, and the mad race against time begins. The prepara- tiOn of chlorine, . . . the laws of sines, . . . the provisions of the Bland-Allison Act, . . . all float before the student's eyes in a con- glomeration of facts, figures. and the only problem is to untangle the right answers for the questions asked. But youth knows no de- feat and so, the next day, the student goes with high hopes to the exam room. One glance at the examination paper brings back all the uncertainties of the day before; and, with a Lord, have mercy on me, and fingers crossed, the student slowly begins to answer the questions he knows and to divine the answers to the rest. .Lu'ck- ily, the law of averages is in favor of the student. Of course, after the exam, the student is never quite the same; there seems to be something missing. Perhaps it is his quick step, or carefree smile, or his sureness that is lacking, that is lacking until the Post- Exam Dance. Then all the sadness and anxiety of those days are forgotten, and the student again walks in happiness and se- renity.

Father Baraniak takes the activity fees of the students and gives them receipts. The boys pay cheerfully. to: they know all the advantages these fees bring them. FATHER ANDREW BROWN suggests possible corrections to some of his art students. Father takes a great interest in extracurricular activities, and you will lind him pre- siding over at least half of these aiter-school meetings. When the dismissal bell rings every after- noon there is a general stampede for the doors and in CI very few minutes the school appears to be deserted. But in many rooms you' .will find small groups of boys and c1 moderator or two working diligently on va- ried projects. These are the clubs and other extra-cur- riculdr activities. The Cahillite room is busy almost every afternoon, with boys hurrying abeut collecting or writing material for the school paper. In either Room 45 or 55 you will find cr few members of the Yearbook staff laboring over their hefty volume. In Room 3, Camera Club members frolic among their yards of negatives and gallons of hypo. Up in Room 62, Father Brown studies the masterpieces produced by his art club, or edits Die Zeitung, or again he may be assem- bling his cavalry regiment for a ride Over the hills and dales of Fairmount Park. Father Kenny and his Spanish Club meet in Room 24 to discuss the conjugation of the verb , levcmtarse a reflexive verb of the first con- J'ugation. The library presents a stirring scene as one of our debators declaims on the advan- tages of Federal medical care. Why do these boys remain at school after their friends have departed? Are these ac- tivities a waste of time? Of course they are not. The pursuit of CI hobby is never a waste of time. And besides providing a hobby, many of these clubs provide useful training for later life. The Cahillite and Yearbook provide real training in journalistic cmd liter- ary writing. Debating teaches or student early in life the advantages of being able to speak on his feet. All these clubs are use- ful, cmd'will be very rewarding in any time given to them.

The activities of this year's Student Council rival those of any preceding body. ....oun nernesenrntlues Under the guidance of its president, Peter O'Hara, A-3, the student council this year has made many adxiances. Pete is ably assisted by Albert Tucker, vice-president; Edward LahiH, treasurer; and William Ly- man, secretary. ' Fr. Kimble, the officers. and the rest of the 'council have worked earnestly all year to make life here in Roman better for the stu- dent body, tbelieve it or not it can be im- provedll, and to plan activities that will please the majority of the pupils. The coun- cil's presence at several affairs in the course of the year has given them a distinctive air and an impressive atmosphere. Though they were a little slow to start, the council finally got going by having its mem- bers serve as ushers for the Freshman Parent-Teachers meeting. A little later in the year the council was called on again to furnish ushers. This time it was for a basketball game. Of course, they responded graciously. The first concrete activity that the council put its hand to was a Recovery dance. WILLIAM LYMAN. Ad. Secretary of the Council. records the minutes of every meeting held by the Council. Pres- ident oi the Council. 'Peter O'Hara. 11-3. addresses the students by way of the public address system. The Council plays an integral part in the activities of the student body and is favorably endorsed by the faculty. The dance, a'huge supcess in all its aspects, was certainly a tribute to Joseph Danks and his dance committee. The gala affair was held in the Roman Ball Room and the music was furnished by Ray Dording and his Musical Needles. The contests, which were a major part of the festivities, added to the general merriment. One duty this year that was performed with regret was their tribute to a great man and a beloved teacher, Professor McNulty. At his funeral the council represented all the students who knew and loved him. This year for the first time the Student Council took charge 'of the school rings. They have done a fine job in securing for the school the finest possible materials at a very reasonable price. Any of the proud owners will tell you that they outdid all pre- vious attempts. Each year the council has become more and more active. This year has been no ex- ception. So let's all stand up and give a rising vote of thanks to our Student Council! MEMBERS OF THE Our school paper, the Cahillite, has done much to spread the name of Roman Catholic High School throughout the city. Published monthly, the Cahillite presents school news and items of interest to the student body. With William I. Lyman, A-l, as Editor-in- Chief, and Harold I. Hermley, A-l, as Man- aging Editor, this year's Cahillite soared to new heights of popularity and distinction. Among the most popular articles which are contained in the Cahillite are: Under the Rock , a take-Off on the Walter Winchell style; Introducing , which presents pictures and write-ups of various students; The Ca- hillite's Choice , presenting an outstanding student in the athletic or scholastic field; Presenting the Faculty , presenting inter- views with various members of the Faculty; A REFRESHXNG PAUSE-the entire Cahillite stuff halts work to pose for the P. 6: G. photographer.

Of all the clubs here at Catholic High there is none that can claim to be more active than the Radio Club. Its members come from all classes; Senior, Junior, Sophomore, 0nd Freshmen. Each week the club'takes part in at least five different programs. In the course of the year the members participate in more than twenty distinct broadcasts. All the sta- tions, from powerful WCAU and KYW all the way down to WFIL, are graced with their presence. For example, every Thursday afternoon over Station WCAU, there are two students from our club. Every Saturday over WPEN, i one of our boys is on a Zoo program. No activity can be praised more highly for its benefits to the students. The experi- ence teaches the bays proper diction cmd enunciation, self-reliance and poise, and gives them a practical knowledge of script writing and other workings of this field of business. We Wish to praise Mr. Fitzpatrick for the wonderful broadcasts he has helped the boys to present. He has written the scripts for three of our own eroqrczms and has given various members priceless voice training. The club grows each yectr and doubtless next year we can expect more and better programs.

Students and the general public have commented favorably on the tricky drills which the band performed at the football games. These maneuvers were taught by the drillmaster, Mr. William Sawyer.

At the close of the football season, the band started its concert season. During this time the members are introduced to some of the better music in both the classical and semi-classical fields. From this music are chosen the selections to be played at the annual school play and at the graduation exercises. Professor Deskcx was pleased with the im- prevement lot the individual members and with the better overall musicianship of the band.

Now we come to that part of the book most interesting to the majority of the student body, our athletic program. This is the most glamorous part of the school activities, and in reality one of the most important parts. Our football team threatened the league championship for CI long time, but the final test found the boys wanting. In baskebcdl we had our shining light, Franny McMenamin, the Catholic League high scorer, who broke the league record for individual points scored in the St. Thomas More game With 34 out of 55 points. Our track team and crew look good this year. Both squads hcxve a good percentage of their stars back. Best of luck, fellows. A Now we come to the tastiest morsel of all. our swimming team. These boys won the Catholic league championship. City championship, and the National Catholic championship. Much of the credit to: this glorious string of victories goes to Chap Rafferty, who has coached the boys for three years. Orchids to Allen Rhodes. Bill Dorsch.

Ambrose scored both touchdowns for the Burrs while Catholic's lone tally came on a fake reverse and a beautiful 67 yard run by Mike Tucker. Weiss converted the extra point. to be on the ground. A SOUTH CATHOLIC man claws at Len Doherty, our hard charg- ing fullback, in an effort to stop him. Most of South's team seem TYRELI. AND BREWSTER open a hole as Brill gets up steam. Although Northeast went on later to win the R.C.H.S. 6 NORTH CATHOLIC 14 Catholic's second defeat came at the hands of a fighting Falcon squad. In a sea of mud the Cahillites saw their hopes for the title swept away by North's snappy T formation. Mike bTucker provided a bright spot in an 'otherwise gloomy day when he cracked the center of the line and scampered 76 yards for paydirt.

This was our fifth straight victory. , V! W 0 v RC. 17 CAMDEN CATHOLIC 15 Cookie McCusker's chargers made their debut on December 19, nosing out Camden Catholic 17-15 at Broad and Vine Streets. The Cahillites overcame an 11 to 7 deficit to down the Jersey passers. ST. IAMES 30 RC. 36 Held to CI Single foul conversion in the second stanza, Roman relinquished an 11-15 first period lead, which was never recap- tured, and bowed to St. James of Chester 3026. The game was the first circuit loss on the wooden way. RC. 51 NORTH CATHOLIC 31 Roman Catholic gave its first display of the form which characterized its play throughout the season by drubbing the highly touted North Catholic team 44-31 at 301 North Broad Street. The Cahillites held 011 the way till late in the third stcmzct when MAGARITY goes up in the air after the ball. Control of the backboards was a big factor in many of the games this season.

At this point Catholic produced CI volcanic rally and put the game on ice with a cascade of baskets. RC. 51 SOUTHEAST 46 The hoopmen traveled to South Philly to do combat with the fiery Pirates of Southeast Catholic, and saw history repeat itself when Roman repelled South with the same'score as the first game of the previous season. WRESTLING MATCH? No, only a scrimmage for the bull in the St. Joseph's game. Al- bert Mike Tucker demon- strates his aggressive guard- inq. WHAT APPEARS to be a strike down the middle is really a scramble for posses- sion of the ball at Penn's Pal- estru. In this game the Pi- rates downed the Catholic dribblers decisively. W. Magurity. F. McMenumin. I. Chiodelti, A. Tucker. I. Brewster. WEST CATHOLIC 46 RC. 49 On Icmucxry 17, the cagers pulled a major upset Over the highly touted Burrs of West Catholic. The highlight of the evening was the brilliant individual display of sharp- shooting by Frannie McMenamin. His pro- lific shooting notched 13 field goals and 4 fouls, for a 30 point total. The Cahillites set the pace throughout the first three quarters, but cm onslaught of Burr baskets put the vic- tory in doubt. At this point McMenamin tale lied 9 points to clinch the game for the boys from Vine Street. S.T.M. 21 RC. 40 Joe Tyrell's 2 pointer set the fuse to CI bombardment of baskets by the Vine Street- ers which enabled Catholic to engineer CI third quarter rally that carried them to a 40-21 victory over the courtmen of St. Thomas. PREP 50 RC. 44 After seeing both North and South Cath- olic suffer defeats in a triple header at the Palestra, Catholic played inspired ball nev- ertheless, conceding to the Prep 50-44. The fury of the Cahillites attack rivaled that of the Atom Bomb and produced points to spare giving Roman CI 21-5 halftime advantage. A second half rally by the Crimson and Gray. however, left nothing for Roman but CI mem- ory. CATHOLIC'S luck Brewster Struggles for the ball deter- minedly with Gillespie of St. Joseph's Prep. Agile and alert are Roman's Larry Chiodetti and Fran McMena- min tensely following the ball. LA SALLE 52 RC. 28 With their eyes on 0 second Catholic league championship after an enthusiastic victory over the Prep, LaSalle let loose on Roman trouncing the Purple and Gold 52-28 on Feb. 16 at North Catholic. One of the factors in Catholicls defeat was the tremen- dous job of guarding which Bud Donnelly did on Cottho1ic's point maker, Franny Mc- Menamin. LA SALLE 40 RC. 35 The Little Explorers were at full strength with the return of Jim Phelan to the lineup and defeated Roman's courtmen 40-35 at Penn's Palestra. RC. 30 ST. JAMES 29 A spirited St. James team from Chester seemed destined to repeat their early season win over Roman. The aggressive Chester Champs were leading 29-28 with Ct scant 10 seconds to the final whistle when Fran HIGH SCORING Fran McMenamin dribbies around the opposition. Awaiting a pass from Fran is Bobby Galli- gan. This bit of action took place in the tirst Prep game. Guarding McMenamin is McNally 0! St. Joseph's. McMenamin snatched victory from the Iim- mies with Q 2 pointer. RC. 55 S.T.M. 39 Roman's sharpshootinq forward, Franny McMencxmin, really hit his stride when Cath- olic's passers did battle with the Golden Bears of Tommy More. Franny sent a tor- rent of baskets through the twines netting 34 points and setting c1 new Catholic league rec- 0rd. McMeanin's huge total was the main factor in cm easy 55-39 victory. WEST 48 RC. 47 Dropping a heart breaker to West Cath- o1ic, 48-47, the Cahillite quintet saw its chances for a play off berth become dimmer. Dougherty and Benson accounted for 27 of the Burrs points, two more than Franny Mc- Menamin's total of 25. ST. IOSEPH'S 61 RC. 43 The highly touted Hawklets of St. Joseph's had too much scoring power for the Golden Boys, triumphing over the Cahillites 61-43. Big gun for the Crimson and Gray was Gil- lespie, while McMenamin's 15 markers were tops for Catholic. SOUTHEAST 50 RC, 39 Catholic's cagers fell before the uncanny shooting of Southeast at Penn's questra, losing 50-39 in c: triple header. Outstanding in the Pirate attack was their marksmanship at the 15 ft. marker. South converted 12 fouls, erring for the first time late in the third quarter. The South Philadelphicm's held Romcm's superb point maker, Frcmnie McMenamin, to 12 points. NORTH 52 RC. 44 A revengeful Falcon quintet battered the Purple and Gold 52-44 to satisfy for an ear- 1ier defeat by a swarm of baskets and cre- ated CI 22-12 halftime advantage. A sensa- tional second half ral1y lacked momentum to halt the high flying Falcons, despite the fact that McMenamin sank nineteen of his twenty-one points in the last two stcmzcts. REACHING tor the sky in this picture are Catholic's Joe Tyrell and Larry Chiodetti. Mannices of South Catholic appears to have the upper hand in retrieving the ball oft the backboard. Magarity looks on. A DESPERATE dive for the ball is made by McNally 01 St. Joseph's Prep. Fran McMenamin dribbles across the floor in the start of a weave play. McMenumin's able dribbling was surpassed only by his sharpshooting. IJJIIBBIOBS OF THE EIIIDEBPHTH TOP ROW: Daqoneri. McGurrily, MacEachern. Hagan, Evans. Mikulla. Cosgrove, Gasperec. Tyrell. Owens.

There are many returning lettermen and a promising crop of newcomers. The team this year will be led by Captain Ed Cooke Carr and they have their eyes on those shiny championship letters. Marty Conboy has been putting the boys through their paces and says that they should be in fine shape for the first meet. Among the veteran runners and field men who hope to bring home the title to Catholic High are: Ed King, 100 and 220 yard dasher; Bill McNichol and Ed McMenamine, two of the finest milers in the city; Ierome Sewell, Jeff Davis, and Jack Mikulla, hurdlers; Kohn, Beckman, shot putters; Ioe Gasperec, a discus thrower; Ioe Owens, half miter; and lack Keenan and Captain Ed Carr, quarter milers. The team is a 1itt1e weak this year in the high jump and pole vault, but Fathers Concannon and Hallman hope to iron out these difficulties by the time of the first competition and present a flawless team. The squad had a little extra practice this year as Father Concannon started an indoor team. Although it was comprised chiefly of hurdlers and sprinters. it gave many of the fellows an opportunity to get their bodies in shape for the more arduous spring practice. The track team has been improving steadily year after year and we think that this year we have attained our aim,-a track squad that will surpass any in the city and that Will take the Catholic League, City and State Championships. HERE'S OUR indoor track team, relaxing to get their pictures taken. They are first row: McKaiq, Ed Smith, Meehan. Gautert. Second row: Carr, McMenamin. King, Keenan. Third row: Fr.

The boys are Frank DePerro, Daniel Belsky, Dick Hagan. Jules Junker, Bill Benning and Don This year, under the careful supervision of Father Barr, the keglers ventured forth to bring glory to Catholic High. As this edi- tion goes to press the bowling team is bat- tling for the championship against a favored North Catholic team. Led by their captain, Bill Benninq, the pin- men have made themselves feared in the Catholic league. They occupy second pla'ce position at this writing. The other members of the team, Frank DePerro, Don Byron, Jules Junker, and Dick Hagan have done admirably well all sea- son and deserve a vote of thanks for all the support they have lent to the team. The quintet has entered the American Bowling Congress's national tournament and they have high hopes of placing. We are sure they will be at the top. Starting off the season with a loss to South Catholic, the Cahillites snapped back Byron. At this writing the team has a good chance to take the Catholic League Championship. to life downing West, LaSalle, St, James, St. Thomas More, and finally North Cath- olic to close the first half in a tie for first place. After beating South, Roman lost to West in a hard fought game. They then put the pressure on LaSalle and St. Thomas More for two more wins. At this writing they are two points behind North Catholic, the league leaders. Two matches remain for our gallant bowlers. They must beat St. James and North Cath- olic to have any hopes of the championship. There is also still a chance that West may come up to the first place as a dark horse. Much of the credit must be given to Fr. Barr tor the time and effort he has put into the team. Let's give a vote of thanks also, to the fel- lows who made Roman ,a great team in a league of many excellent teams. CHURNING up the water is our varsity four.

The boys worked hard everyday at lhe Pairmounl Rowing Asso- ciation's boa! house on boat house row. This year the crew was coached by Larry Kiefler. former Cahillite oarsman. As the coxswain barked his snappy orders for launching the first boat, Catholic High began another crew season. It also marked Catholic's twelfth straight year of rowing at the Fairmount Rowing Association. The squad shapes up as one of the best crews since 1943, when Catholic High won the National Championship. Lettermen re- turning from last year are: representing the senior cldss e Iim Muldowney, captain; Vince Mora and Franny Grill, co-captains; Harry Haas, Iim Ryan, Joe Carr, Andy Vol- cukcrs and Iohn Kennedy. Iohn Halpin, Ioe Ford, Dan McMonagle and Bob DeLone are the returning juniors. There are many prom- ising oarsmen among the new candidates of whom c: great majority are sophomores and juniors. The coxswqin's job is well taken care of with Jack Pickerqill. Iohn Cane non and John McGowan returning as ex perienced tillermen. TOP ROW: John Sheehan, loan Gordon, Mary Lehmann. Joseph Dunks. MIDDLE ROW: Mari- caxmen Nardone. Gerald Smith. Angela Conroy, THE lllHOlE This year the Dramatic Club under the able direction of the Rev. James E. York presented The Whole Town's Talking, cm uproarious comedy in three acts by Iohn Emerson and Anita Loos. The Little Flower High School Auditorium resounded with ap- preciative applause as the curtain fell on one of the best performances Catholic High has seen in years. The Rev. Francis J. Hallman handled stage direction with efficiency. Again girls from Hallahon High School gra- ciously filled the feminine roles. Throughout the three acts. there is comedy galore as Henry Simmons, wealthy manu- facturer, has his plans of marrying his daughter, Ethel, to meek Chester Binney up- set when Ethel returns from Chicago accom- panied by the dashing man-of-thesworld Roger Shields. Simmons then emulates Chester in the eyes of Ethel, his wife, Hattie, by creating a fabulous romance between Binney and Lettie Lythe, the Movie Queen. Simmons, also wearied by his wife's re- IOHN SHEEHAN. ANGELA CONROY Iohn Waltrich. Clare McGee. SITTING: Carol Baillow. Dorothy Francesca. TOlUIVS HIlHIIIG bukes, takes dancing lessons at Sadie Bloom's but leads his wife to believe he is attending 4 A.M. business conferences with Donald Swift, whose name he picked at random from the hotel register. Simmons does not suspect that a cab driver has given Hattie Sadie's handbag, which was left in the taxi. He does not know that Mrs. Simv mons has invited Swift to the house and that Swift himself is violently jealous of his fiancee Lettie Lythe. The plot reaches a suspenseful moment when poor Chester is confronted by Swift, who learned of the love affair , and by Shields, who was scorned by Ethel. Fast- movinq, hilarious comedy ensues when Sadie Bloom calls at the Simmons's home to retrieve her handbag. The show draws to a happy conclusion, however, as every- thing is explained. With Ethel in Chester's arms and the reconciliation of Mr. and Mrs. Simmons, Lettie and Swift return to Holly- wood, and the dejected Shields to Chicago. MARICARMEN NARDONE ANGELA CONROY. GERALD SMITH The role of boisterous Henry Simmons was superbly and hilariously portrayed by IOHN WALTRICH of the Senior Class who is a vet- eran of last year's splendid performance. GERALD SMITH. also of the Senior Class, delivers a fine and commending enactment of the comical, hapless Chester Binney. The roles of romantic Roger Shields and vindicu tive Donald Smith were ably filled by under- classmen JOHN SHEEHAN and CONNELL BOYLE, respectively. The suspicious Hattie Simmons was well played by MARY LEH- MANN, ANGELA CONROY excelled as Ethel; MARICARMEN NARDONE, as viva- cious Lettie Lythe; DOROTHY FRANCESCO, as Sadie Bloom. Other supporting roles were capably played by JOAN GORDON and CAROL BAILFOU. IOE DANKS was the sarcastic cab driver. The Whole Town's Talking was a suce cessful and memorable presentation and one to make the students of Catholic High right- fully proud. The social activities of R.C.H.S. culminated in the ball room at the Beniamin Franklin Hotel on the evening of Friday, May 2nd. Earl Denny supplied the music for the senior prom. The sen- ior class acknowledges its appreciation to Father MacErlane and Father Laut who worked with the prom committee in ironing out the great number of difficulties which arise in conducting such an affair.
