A new realm, a new rule, A new way that veiled, its steep ascent With that Morphic color and Olympic air Which is sometimes called the saving grace of youth. And on the scene we came: the Happy Wanderers, Seeking the greenwood tree-the wood that dreams are made of With the promise of green pastures we rounded the bend, Whistling merrily-despite a vague, persistent concept Of Ponce de Leon beside Pieria's spring. ,im , , i .

Before us loomed the formidable Unknown, Flexing its alpian arms like a Colossus Guarding a rhodesian Valley Where warm winds blow. This was the purging marchg this was the Way of the strong We dared not stop: for those who rested Rose no more to climb. ' And being purged, each ascended with buttressed vigor- Another Moses, on another Mount. This was the Watering place! Footsore, We sank securely to the mossy mat, Breathing-in thirsty draughts-the fragile air Cf a reborn earth. We saw the promise Gf green pastures budding forth-and laughed That We ever doubted it would come. We saw the bridge We once thought A Wild figment of a desperate hope Staunehly spanning the last canyon. We saw the road beyond: Roman and wide, The last mile of our journey.

H vigug, M:-cW w - Sf, Michaels -A Tribute St. Michael's College typifies a long-established American tradition in higher education. It is a private college, free from the political and other controls which wise American educators have always sought to avoid. It is a Catholic college, imbued with the spirit of religion, inculcating moral values, as the original and best American tradition invariably expected a college to do. It is a frankly small college, seeking to place the service and perfection of the individual person above mere institutional development. It breeds a wholesomely progressive spirit, aspiring to bring old and tested principles to the solution of new problems, and new and effective methods to the presentation of old, unchanging truths. Situated here in Vermont it intimately shares the thoroughly American mentality of this sturdy New England State. Yet, almost on the borders of the great Canadian nation, it fosters that saving cosmopolitanism which should always be characteristic of a truly Catholic educational institution. RICHARDJ. CUSHING Archbishop of Boston X 10 X wif Wi' S re Reverend Gerald E. Dupont, SSE DEDICATIO Now I say this so that no one may deceive you by persuasive words . . . See to it that no one deceives you by philosophy and vain deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elements of the world and not according to Christf, The year is not 62, but 19563 the sands of Colossae have long since scattered into the alleys and avenues of seven continents. Yet the severe admonition of Paul rings out across the centuries entombed in books and maps with all the urgency and immediacy of its first writing. The voice of Paul, like a disturbing accusation of conscience, intrudes upon our modern complacency, warning us against that which we prefer to believe to be a friend. During the long internment in the enemy's camp, we have taken a lack of persecution to mean equality, toleration to be friendship, forgetting that friendship between the Sons of God and the world came to an end in Eden. . But Paul does not forget. He sharply points to the swords of ideas, and the lions of materialism which seek, with relentless determination, the extinction of the Christian spirit. Paul lived with ideas and he knew that, where actions speak loudly, words ac- complish their task in a devastating whisper. And if we are not to die, if we are not to have the vitality of Christ slowly sucked from us, we must take up our armor once again. The steel of intellect, the iron of will, and the mail of faith will be our protection. Watchfulness rather than complacency, fear of eternity, rather than friendship with today, should influence our actions. For the lion is not at our door, we are in his den. As representative of those men who, throughout our college residence, have been instrumental in our preparation for the silent conflict, and who, personally, has devoted himself to our attainment of true success, we select the Reverend Gerald E. Dupont, SSE as that priest and teacher in whose honor we gratefully dedicate this book. 11 POPE PIUS XII Eugenio Pacelli, Pope Pius XII lends humility to a proud world, expresses love to hearts gnawed by fears and mistrust. A ruler whose influence extends beyond the grave, the peace of his domain is 8 silent rebuke to the lesser realms whose boundaries are marked with headstones. In f F.

His wisdom and understanding have earned him the sincere respect of men of all faiths. His determination to have good education 'made available to young Ver- monters has endeared him to his growing flock. filili v. 1 ifggfff.. ., lg PM . l'1i?:'!frJ 1,-if ' 1117 , r'i.'.4 L' 7- MOST REVEREND EDWARD F.

Our first and most important order of business was, of course, our Junior Prom. Our Committee Chairman announced the beginning of a fund raising drive which would guarantee SMC a big name band for our big Spring Weekend. The Knights and Knaves found four of our mates playing convincing lead roles. The coming of winter found Doc Jacobs in the gym busily super- vising basketball practice, as usual. And ,lunior Bob Young headed the list of cage aspirants. The Dining Hall was the scene of a feast fit for Kings on Thanksgiving Day, since there was no scheduled Thanksgiving vacation the school went all out to make our Turkey Day a memorable one. Time passed swiftly and Christmas found us under our trees at home or carrying mail for the local Post Office. On returning to Vermont we were greeted with the good news that the raffle was a success and our big name band for the coming weekend was assured. The Ryan I basketball team, which was staffed entirely by Juniors, swept to an undefeated season and the Intramural Crown, while our Class Hockey team took two games in succession to give us another leg on the Inter-Class Trophy. Winter Carnival was a success, with the added touch of Friday's blizzard and Friday night's stalled cars and missing dates. The big announcement of the .lunior Weekend bands pleased all, with Napoleon providing marching jazz for the Saints, and Hal Mclntyre serenading us with sweet ballads on Prom night. No doubt about it, our weekend was the greatest, and our queen the prettiest. But there was the business of winning the inter- class crown, and Win it we did with a first place in baseball and a second place in track. However, the Poets held up the presentation ceremony f0I' two months. Baseball arrived and so did Warm weather.

The boys from Ceo's were busy editing the yearbook, while Bob Battles was industriously working on Lance manuscripts. Our Senior Ball, held at the Olde Board, was literally a ball, while the Arnold Air Society's Military Weekend spotlighted the modern music of Oscar Pettiford. The placement office arranged interviews with various companies for us, and suddenly we realized that we would have to get a job! The semi-annual blood drive found St. Will's on top with 15 dollars to boot. This inspired the senior dorm to duplicate this prize performance the following Spring. It was a surprise to no one when we dedicated the Shield to Father Du- pont, who had guided the St. Michael's Plan and its first adherents throughout four long years. Upon returning to the Hill after a long Christmas va- cation we found Alumni Hall approaching com- pletion, and also an increase in the number of Latin Scholars on campus. The Winter Carnival arrived and with it Walt Disney, Mickey Mouse and his cartoon friends. Our basketball team ended the campaign with a highly successful 17-4 record. gaining recog- nition as the top small college club in New England. They hit the century mark in scoring in four games and breezed undefeated to the State Title. The Knights and Knaves staged the Caine Nlutiny Court Martial and spotlighted seven seniors in lead roles, while Frank Adams' debators scored 8 major triumph in the St. Lawrence Tournament. Easter came and went and we plunged into the first series of Graduate Record Exams. We took a breather during the last Junior Weekend of our Collegiate career, and then back to the books for our last tussle with Finals, with a dash of Compre- hensives added for variety. Suddenly, too quickly for most of us. Crad- uation was here, and with it the end of a joyful and educational four years. After shaking the last hand we left St. Michael's to make our way in the world, leaving the Hilltop with the happy thought that there would be many a reunion in the future to relive again those golden years in mem- ory. t 1 mag' 173 -.

They were: Russ Cangi, third base- man, Frank Keane, first sackerg Ray Garland and Steve O,Brien, Outfieldersg Tom Sorrell, ace lefthanderg and catcher, Paul Palmer. Although the schedule was marred by rain and temporary postponements, the Varsity squad man- aged to hang up a four won, three lost record, one of the best records that a Knight team has compiled in recent years. In the first game of the season, the host UVM Panthers nipped our Hilltop squad 9-6. It was a case of not enough practice and first game jit- ters that told the tale, despite the outstanding performance of southpaw Sorrell. In the second game the Michaelmen got off on the right foot, as they walloped the Panthers of Middlebury 17-9, behind the fine nine hit effort of Paul Murphy. Paul Palmer's tremendous home run highlighted the game. On the right track now, the Knights swept through a double header with Norwich 6-1 and 1-0, as Tom Sorrell and Paul Ripchick picked up their first collegiate victories.

The ad- dition of a new coach in 1955 spirited the team to a winning season, but the loss of four out of the first six starters proved to be a serious detriment to the 1956 squad. However the spring tournament produced some potential netmen.

I TERCLASS SPORTS One of the chief ingredients that goes into making up the school spirit that St. Michaelis is renowned for is the highly Com- pet1t1ve program of interclass sports. The reward for the class total- lng the highest point score at the year's end is the Knight Trophy. The points that a class garners may come in almost any field of activity, from football to debating, and from basketball to play competition. As the program is highlighted by Basketball, Football and Baseball, we have in like manner placed emphasis on these sports. However it is to be noted that it was through the combined efforts of Paftidpatiflg .luniors in all fields of activity which won the coveted Trophy for the class of '57. FOOTBALL With the beginning of the academic year, the call went out for members and hopeful aspirants of the various classes to begin practice sessions, in preparation for the second Inter-Class football schedule. The schedule called for each class to play three games. one game with each class. The season opened with the well coached Junior squad taking the measure of the Seniors before ri Home- coming crowd of several hundred spectators. by a score of 2l-6. It was just a case of too much Junior team for the age weary Seniors. In the second half of that weekend twin bill the new but well-knit Freshman eleven trampled a hapless. injury-riddled Sopb squad by the score of 31-0. The Frosb. led by backs Jim McNally and Bill Stallworth and a line stalwart by the name of Don l.amoureux. ran amuck, and scored almost at will. For the losing Sopbs. Rd Cashman was a shining light on both offense and defense. In mid-season the Program was dealt a serious blow when the lamu Sophomore class withdrew its team from competition due to lack it of material and a mounting injury list. ln the wal-ce of this bomb. the powerful Juniors. led by Jay Tierney. Bud Nlcffullocli and liay ' Jagqueg in the backfield along with lint-men Bo hlvfforniivk. ,lim Walsh and Fran Wallace. rolled to an easy 26-0 vit-tory over an injury riddled Freshman team. mu Q l E X s u 1-.:.I-v's1'4nSf:-tis?-1g,,3::,-:..,,5,,-,,3:.igag-4-I I second exhibit classes games It was had or Juniors sers.

However last year's victors, the class of '56, made the going rough, as they swept to victory in the Hockey tournament, as well as the Interclass Play Compe- tition. The Frosh added their abilities to the pro- gram with their spectacular diamond play, and the Sophs found their efforts were most profitable on the hardwood as well as on the slopes. The hard- driving Juniors took the Trophy through the well- balanced membership of their class, for while the football eleven took top honors on the gridiron, it was the point gamering of such net stars as Bell- court and Chiasson that cemented the final victory. t -,I Lim 'W 4 ' --1 A- lk-.1 . ax Ll l I.: 3: 194 Doc Jacobs and his Interclass Team coaches.

A talented and staff under the capable man- agement of Tom Leavitt, Editorg Uggie Dodge, News Editorg and Jack Thompson, Sports Editor, afforded their readers outstanding coverage of campus events and happenings. It was through the unstinting efforts of all concerned that our weekly paper garnered fourth place in the llc- gional Newspaper Competition of the NFCCS.

The Class of '56 opened a new half century of St. Michaelis tradition. We hold the distinction of being the first graduates of the New Program of studies, and the goals of that Program will be realized in our achievements of later life. Although physically we end our career on the Hilltop, in our minds and hearts the memories of St. Michael's will always be fresh. And, like our predecessors, we enter the world, armed with the educational and spiritllal sword of the first angel of God, to spread the Truth, and to give Glory to God. ees in iss ells rst he ur me ad ys he al h, s., , .. .

It is a flexible program and is arranged by consultation with the Dean or the Registrar to suit the student, who may follow a course of general studies or a pro- gram of accounting and business. The program is designed also to fulfill the basic re- quirements, in a liberal arts framework, of students who desire to study in a specialized institution at the end of two years. The following completed the Two Year Program and earned the degree of As- sociate in Arts in June 1956.

The inauguration of the English for Foreign Students program under the direction of Prof. Ernest A.

Start- ing with one instructor and three pupils, the pro- gram reached the stage in our senior year when registration had to be set at 100 and 10 instructors -All R -, , K I i , cf' ef ca . vi, .. ., an were necessary.
