TRIBUTE . . When at some future date the high court of history sits in judgement on each of us recording whether in our brief span of service we fulfilled our responsibilities to the state, our success or failure, . . . will be measured by the answers to four questions: First, were we truly men of courage . . . Second, were we truly men of judgement . . . Third, were we truly men of integrity . . . Finally, were we truly men of dedication? -John F. Kennedy Time has gone by, and we leave our high school years behind, years in which we were led by a man who answers these questions by his words and actions. He has given of himself fully, enriching our lives academically, and even more so, spiritually. He has brought St. Pius from its very beginnings to the full four year family that it is now. He has given us spirit and hope and high goals of life. We, the graduating class of 1973, leave behind a part of our- selves, as we take a part of this man with us. We know he will lead St. Pius on, building the foundation, continuing its growth, and upholding the 'principles and beliefs we have long worked for. To you, Father Brembos, from the first graduating class, we extend our deepest gratitude and thanks. P The Most Reverend George W. Ahr, Bishop of Trenton, is welcomed to St. Pius X by Sister Mary Eloise and Father Brembos. Father distributes the Eucharist at daily Mass. an-m s REVEREND GEORGE M.

SISTER MARY ELOISE, B.S., M.A. Associate Principal x Our Staff photographer seems to have caught Sister unaware. Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Throughout our years at Pius, the Senior Class has witnessed this sort of person who by her example has truly been an inspira- tion in our lives. That person to whom we devote special attention is Sister Mary Eloise. Sister, as our associate principal, has made herself an inseparable part of the school's history since its beginning four years ago. She has established invaluable friendships with students, faculty, and parents. She has striven for the highest standard of education at Pius and the highest standard of being for us as individuals. Devo- tion is the key to all her endeavors. As we leave Pius, we take with us such fond memories as: her lady-like poise . . . her lectures on proper sitting positions and gum chewing . . . her understanding and counseling . . . her Halloween masquerade costume . . . her association in the kidnapping of Bunny Lake . . . The Class of '73 bids its warmest thanks to you, Sister Mary Eloise. The FACULTY SISTER MARY ANCILLA SISTER MARY BENEDICT MRS. KAY BAUR MRS. BARBARA ASMANN NJ wtf REVEREND ERIC BURDT MRS.

' Mother Mary Patrick, RSM, representing the Sisters of Mercy, extends her congratulations to Sister Mary Eloise and the community at St. Pius. On October 24, 1971, morning broke for St. Pius bringing with it the fulfillment of the hopes and dreams of those who had worked and sacrificed to make the vision of St. Pius a reality. Praise and thanksgiving were the themes of the day, as the Most Reverend George W. Ahr, Bishop of Trenton, dedicated the new building. Heavy rains did not dampen the enthusiasm and joy which was so clearly evidenced in the faces of those who came to join in the celebration around the altar. Each new morning has brought to all of us at Pius the opportunity to come a step closer to the full realization of our goal-the re-creation of a new day, a new world, by restoring all things in Christ. Some days have enabled us to witness outward expressions and signs of what we hope is going on within the hearts of all. On May 19, 1972, the community at Pius shared in the joy of Deacons John Madgziak and Mike Alliegro as they received their Diaconate. 4 The Most Reverend George W. Ahr visited St. Pius again on October 12, 1972. On this visit the Bishop blessed our sisters' new home. Father Brembos and Sister Mary Eloise wel- come a friend of St. Pius. .,. ! K ,.g.. '...' Reverend George Brembos assists, as Bishop Ahr prays for blessings on the school. The Most Reverend George W. Ahr blesses the corner- stone for our new building. Bishop Ahr extends his congratulations to the student body through Joanne Vogel and Ellen Reichart. The halls of Pius, soon to be filled with the laughter and joy of students, are blessed by the Most Reverend George W. Ahr. The offertory procession highlights the participation of the people at the Mass of Dedication Outward symbols of inward dedication are prepared for the ceremonies. Father Alliegro and Father Magdziak receive new vestments from their fellow seminarians. The Most Reverend George W. Ahr offers Mass at the new convent. All of our sisters participated in the Mass offered by Bishop Ahr dedicating the new COVIVCI1 I. The entire student body attended Father Alliegro's and Father Magdziak's Diaconate Ceremony. '. . . we are only in the hands of time falling slowly It's there for us to know with love that we can go Burn slowly The Candle of Life. - The Candle of Life. The Moody Blues 4lThis past year has been a period of growth for St. Pius X - a growth in love in spirit and in awareness. This growth has matured into increased concern foriothers and a fulfillment of Jesus' message - a message of love. The central aspect of spiritual life at Pius is the Mass, which enables the faculty and students to join daily in celebrating. the Eucharist with the spirit of brotherhood and peace. Special occasions, such as Christmas, provide awarmth and togetherness of Mass in the gym. The Mass ends with the blessing: Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. It is a fitting blessing in view of the Candle of Life that must shine forth the continued realiza- ticin of our spiritual responsibilities to others and to our- se ves. Father Brembos offers Mass before the big Thanksgiving Day game. The quiet simplicity of our modern chapel provides students and faculty with the opportunity for reflective moments. Students at Pius are frequently reminded of their responsibility to others in the community. as 1 sf Q 4 1 .,wgew,2.,iH ,. ,tv sw i -iw gtg: .. ,. tdfwc , view.-A-,f-. -. 5 K , ,Q ,Q -f,-sw 2 w e , ,, 55.143, f m,-Q X ttg:'1'L1.

Administration, faculty, and guidance have worked closely to lead students to high indi- vidual achievement. The efforts have been fruitful. At the close of the first se- mester 8O of our 116 seniors have already received college acceptances. Pius received special recognition when Mary Cornell was named a finalist in the National Merit Scholarship Competi- tion.

It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself. -Shakespeare One of the areas of our school in which the true spirit of giving is evidenced is in the Guidance De- partment. There is the obvious: the catalogs, vocational literature, applications, and transcripts. But beyond all of this is the concern-the personal concern for each student as he is guided toward selfunderstanding and understanding of others. Every individual is viewed as having unique talent, problems, and resources. Students are constantly kept informed of educa- tional opportunities by the dissemination of cur- rent guidance information by the department. Eric to this extent. With haunting eyes, Sue Matula seeks the lest results from Mrs. Halick , , 7.7 7 ART A lonely little boy couldn't draw, but when he found a friend, they created together. -Arlene Musil The art students have found a friend in Miss Wicks and the A11 Department. The department enthusiastically helps students to recognize their own creativity and to develop a true appreciation of all art. Students are guided to the realization that in the curve, the color, the shade, the line there is some- thing to wake an emotion. They are brought to the knowledge that greatness lies in that communi- cation when both artist and viewer feel alike. 'Q The art room is always a place of busy activity . as each student attempts in his own way to give liaa expression to the creative spirit within him. . . W,t1 ' f it -- Donna Manzo and James Kelly blend shades for their color wheels. Leonard Witkowski, Jack Krafjack, and Bob Vonderhaar intently work on their mechanical drawing assignments. ,M A chalk drawing brings out Nancy Smalley's artistic talents. MUSIC 41 O Music in your depths we deposit our hearts and our souls for thou hast taught us to see with our ears and hear with our hearts. -Kahlil Gibran Music is a response of the heart-the joy and anguish, the tempest and the calm, the climax and the resolve. But the underlying force is a technique, a logical discipline. It is to the task of strengthening this technique that Mrs. Burns devotes her time. Through appreciation and theory courses, the department helps students value what inspira- tion has led others to do.

Maxx, BUSINESS Never fear the want of business. A man who qualifies himself well for his calling, never fails of employment. -Thomas Jefferson Through the variety of course offerings, the Busi- ness Department hopes to instill basic as well as specialized skills used in the business world. The de- partment's curriculum is constantly growing and changing in an effort to keep apace with what is taking place in today's business world. The department is a vocationally-oriented one which teaches skills that can be put to use immediately after graduation. The staff believes that the courses offered will serve no purpose if they remain the property of the student and are not used and further polished. Thus, business students are given the opportunity to practice their skills in a productive Way by assisting the office staff and members of the faculty.

Peabody The mission of the Distributive Education Department is to prepare individuals for satisfying and satisfactory entry, adjustment, and advancement in careers related to marketing and distribution. Distributive Education is the people-centered member of the vocational education fam- ily. The main objective of the department is to help each student find his career objective through the length of a two-year program and to develop this objective to the point where he is prepared for immediate employment after graduation or capable of enrolling in advanced learn- ing courses in his field at the college level. Such areas as adveitising, marketing, selling fashion merchandise, buying, personnel administration, displaying merchandise, and all of the behind-the-scene jobs of dis- tribution are covered. Through participation in extensive activities, the DIS- TRIBUTIVE EDUCATION CLUBS OF AMERICA, managing of the Campus Store, and various related projects, the goals of the department are realized. MEDIA CE TER Great stores of all sorts of good books are common among us. He that cannot buy, may borrow. -Richard Baxter The Media Center is a vital part of student life, since modu- lar scheduling emphasizes independent study and research. The library staff, under the direction of Mrs. Barbara Asmann, is more than able to help in all ways to further the educa- tion and progress of the students. All faculty and students enjoy the convenience of our constantly growing Media Center. Besides the 146 general and professional magazines and four daily newspapers presently received, plans for next year include the inauguration of The New York Times on microfilm. The Media Center is never empty as students use their time to complete their independent study assignments. Some leisure time is also enjoyed in the relaxing atmosphere of the center as students peruse the magazines and newspapers. l Hardworking students can always be found in our media center.

The capable faculty seek to develop in their students an appreciation for and love of their new language. Among the departments facilities are a resource center, a wireless lab, and a wealth of audio-visual equipment.

M THE TICS T he study of mathematics .is like climbing up a steep and craggy mountaing when once you reach the top, it fully recompenses your trouble, by opening a fine, clear and extensive prospect. -Tryon Edwards Helping students to reach the summit of that moun- tain is the goal of the Mathematics Department. The study of mathematics requires an effort to develop oneis mind to the point of thinking creatively and disciplines it to the point of sharpness. A constant effort is exerted to bring the student to a more com- plete and broader knowledge of mathematics. Much time is spent imparting a conscious awareness of the symmetry and logic of each subject area. Since mathe- matics is so closely related to other subjects, a precise and firm understanding of it is necessary in almost any other field of endeavor. At Pius, great care is taken to teach not only the abstract thought, but its practical applications and its interrelations with the work as a whole. Now who took that pointer?

Students have found the large and varied selection of religion courses provoca- tive and stimulating. These courses are aimed at generating a mature understanding of religious beliefs and traditions. It is the hope of the de- partment that Christian values and convictions will be deepened. Within the school community, students see and experience in a practical way an application of these principles. Student projects stemming from their instruction have included visits to orphan- ages and state homes, assistance to flood victims, and food and clothing collections for the poor. .lim Gover and Phil Steffen trace the journeys of Saint Paul.

It is the knowledge which gives dimension to the present, direction to the future, and humility to the leaders of men. -Lyndon Johnson The Social Studies Department gives to the students the factual information upon which they can base future happen- ings. Through the efforts of its members students come to understand past cultures and the effects of events in different parts of the world. With this knowledge they are led to interpret the events of the present and to become aware of the attributes and deficiencies of their own culture. Social Studies, in part, is the study of man. It offers to the students a knowledge of individuals-their motivations and desires. An insight into the mind of other individuals has helped students to justify and to explain their own psyche and has enabled them to relate more fully to the world around them.

The Department realizes that if high scholastic achievement in subjects is expected, good reading techniques are essential. Courses in developmental and speed reading are offered to meet the needs of all students. A wide variety of reading materials are available to make the courses both interesting and challenging. Much of the instruction is done through the use of tapes and closed circuit television. Continued assess- ment of reading growth takes place frequently so that students progress at their own pace.

Through proper use of structured and unstruc- tured time, the student can explore in depth areas of interest while still completing what is required. Independent research is encour- aged, and made easy by the availability of resources outside the classroom. These include our media center and the various re- source centers pertaining to specific areas of study located through- out the school. Unstructured time allows the student free time to use in any manner he wishes. Projects can be completed or researched, and the time can be used as the student sees necessary.

Through its channels, problems and suggestions from the students are presented to the administration. The Student Council works hard to generate a sense of unity between the whole school and the administration. The Student Council accomplishes this by attempting to involve every student, each of whom is an integral part of this organi- zation. School pride is derived through the various functions it sponsors. Dress-Up Day, record hops, movies, class meetings, faculty-student discussions, Ecology Day, and Clean-Up Day, are some of the projects conducted by the council. Through this instrument of unity, involvement, and aware- ness, Pius truly hopes to become a growing vital community. -.xx xl W Senior Mary Kay Rabbitt moderates a Student Council meeting Mrs. lnzano and Carol Lynch enjoy a lighter moment in Student Council Innifnrt Jaws: k , ' . .. ii. l I After installation, the four class-level presidents and Mrs. lnzano ponder the tasks ahead.

ATION A HO OR OCIETY The National Honor Society is an organization of students who show outstanding qualities in scholarship, leadership, and service to their school and community. Instituted at St. Pius in the winter of 1972, the Society has already proved to be an active group. , At the beginning of this year, the members of the Honor Society demonstrated their quality of service by sponsoring a clothing drive for the flood victims of Pennsylvania. Besides being concerned with community affairs, it also worked within the school. To aid their fellow students in the differ- ent courses of math, language, and science, mem- bers set up schedules for individual tutoring op- portunities. This nationally known society brought, both this year and last, deserved recognition to out- standing juniors and seniors at St. Pius. SOCIAL LIFE One aspect of school life which en- hances the growth of character in the stu- dent is social life. This school year, full of events, was highlighted by the Hallo- ween Dance, the Bonfire, and Christmas Semi-Formal. The Halloween Dance brought a sudden surprise visit from a mysterious monk who was said to be a relative of Sister Eloise. The bonfire aroused the spirits of the school on the eve of Thanksgiving. As the fire rose, so rose our school spirit. The annual Christmas semi-formal was a memorable highlight in the holiday sea- son. Imagine , the theme of the first an- nual Junior Prom was the inspiration for the decorating committee which managed to transform the familiar appearance of the gym into a world of dreams.

The cast of seventy-five, excited and enthusiastic students, gave a brilliant performance. The play, presented in two acts revolves around A1 Peterson and his girlfriend Rosie. Al is a frus- trated songwriter and Rosie a stubborn girl who has marriage on her mind. Together they decide to become rich on the talents of the latest rock 'n roll idol, Conrad Birdie. The attempts to do this result in the action of the musical, filled with reminiscences of the 5O's.

' TE CHER APPRECI TIO DY On Thursday, March 8, 1973, St. Pius hosted its annual Teacher Appreciation Day as part of Student Awareness week. The main purpose was to set aside a day on which the students could show their appreciation for their teachers and other school workers. The day started with each of them being presented with a red rose as a token of this. On this day, the students relieved the teachers and other workers of their duties, as students took over classes, office jobs, and helped out in the cafeteria. Even Father Brembos and Sister Eloise got the day off, with Mark DiDia and Lisa Power taking over their duties. It was a fun day and a fun way to tell our teachers We appreciate you , while getting some idea of the work they do for us.

Action and involvement are consistent themes for each of these activities with the emphasis contin- ually on the individual's interest and enjoyment. Variety in the club program is substantiated by its fields ranging from stagecraft to future teach- ing. The value of the efforts made in these areas is the development of commitment to beneficial com- munity and civic service in the future.

FOOTB LL In the beginning of the 1972 season, there was a vast im- provement over the first year team. The repeat of the defeat of Greenbrook showed team play and discipline. Bruin power also prevailed over St. Peter's, the ,71 conference champs, in a very convincing win. St. Pius also proved there are come- backs such as in the Dunellen game in which they overcame a two touchdown deficit. After such an excellent start, the Bruins fell to the tones of lack of backing and spirit. Excelling in play were many athletes who showed good scholarship material. George Dente scored 5 touchdowns after a monotonous wait for eligibility. Chuck Morris also proved himself by receiving Honorable Mention on the Parochial All- State team. The 1973 season should show the Bruins can be a powerhouse in the conference.

Mark Ziminski, Ed McCooIa, and Chuck Morris ponder over the situ- ation as the defense takes charge. The J. V. team opened its season by demolishing Greenbrook, but was never quite as successful again as the team finished with a record of 1-4-2. During this season fine football players developed from the experiences of competition and fair-play. The bright spots on the team were Mark DiDia, Tom Laudino, Angelo Butrico and Ed Terrio. Ed Malok makes the most of his defense talents. J. V.

With a record of 8-15, the Bruins had a fine campaign which was highlighted by a second place finish in the Holmdel Holiday Festival. Steve Har- mon and Mike McKenna, the team leaders, both received honorable mention on the All-Middlesex County Team.

At times the team looked very exceptional, this was shown toward the end of the season with their winning of 6 games in the last 8 played. Coach James Regan emphasized the im- portance of tough defense and team effort to bring the ball club to a respectable finish. With players like Phil Panzarella, Lawrence Dowdy, and Clayton Campbell next year's varsity team will be given much assistance.

Not discouraged by their early setbacks, through practice and hard work, they were able to improve their record to 10-13. Included in their late season wins were victories over St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Peter's. Both had beaten the Bruins earlier in the season. Some outstanding players on this year's squad were Tom Malone, Tom Berkery, Jeff Trokovich, Ron Mieczkowski and Tom Davison. The teamls improvement dur- ing the season points towards a successful future for St. Pius X Basketball. Prospective freshmen fill the gym with hopes of making the team.

During freshman year the team had forty members who ran in races over a 1.5 mile course. Junior Varsity year saw the distance go up to 2.5 miles, but only harriers ran. The last two years, St. Pius has fielded a varsity team with 10 to 15 steady runners competing on a course that can range from 2.3 miles to 3 miles. Cross country has little spectator interest and is a sport without headline glory. The student who runs long distances has the desire to excel, and his team has a want to win. This past season the team compiled a 9-7 record. Coached by Capt. W..Singer, the team put together a list of accomplishments. Underclassmen who are to carry on the winning tradition are: 1973- 74 Captain K. Walker, B. Wisnewski, K. Tully, B. Capparelli, M. van Es, and P. Miraglia.

Baseball Team completed its initial var- sity campaign with a 8-13 record. With everyone of the start- ing players returning for the '73 season, it is feasible that like the other varsity clubs in the school, the baseball team will improve over last year. Led by All-Raritan Valley Conference batterymen Tom Laudino and Ed McCoola, the varsity squad finished strong at the close of the 1972 season. Not only have the Bruins kept all members of last year's team, but they have acquired the services of infielder George Dente who should be an added boost to the team. Jim Palko held'down the shortstop position, and looks even better this year. Freshman Jim Howard won the first base job in '72, and he too is stronger in '73, Senior Mark Moulton will hold down the hot corner, with pitcher Ed Sullivan serving as a utility in- fielder. Tri-Captain Rick Dragon works in the outfield, along with Brian Mooney in center and either Tom Laudino or pitcher John Bennett in left, depending on whose turn it is to pitch.

They participated in pep-rallies, spon- sored dances, and continually encouraged spirit and pride for St. Pius on all class levels. This year the Juniors under the direction of Sister Mary Charlotte participated in the school play. Athletes from the class of '74 have excelled in all sports and have been awarded individual regional and district hon- ors. . Finally in February, class rings were dis- tributed in a traditional ceremony. They are the visible sign of the upperclassmen and rep- resent the accomplishments of the class of '74.

OPHOMORE Initiative, creativity, and participation depicts the Sophomore class as a forceful link at St. Pius. The primary potion of their strength was displayed by their successful candy drive during the fall of 1972. This was only the beginning of the Sopho- mores' accomplishments but a very good indica- tion of better things that followed. Class spirit prevailed throughout the football season and was highlighted when the Sophomores won the poster contest for the St. Pius-St. Thomas Aquinas game. They further supplemented the Thanksgiving Day Game by releasing an array of helium-filled balloons into the air to open the ex- citing event. While organization is a key factor to any class, the Sophomores tackle it with ease. Plans for a class trip to Bucks County Playhouse and a picnic at Washington Crossing State Park are well under- way. An anticipated Sophomore Week should add to their list of successful activities. ' As a class, under the direction of Miss Wicks, the Sophomores have set a fine example for the upcoming freshmen and incoming students. Their strong class spirit should provide them with two successful remaining years. FIRST ROW: A. Bonomo, L. Brown, C. Bartlett, E. Alvino, B. Barry, Conly, B. Boosmann, B. Brown, J. Boyle, D.

I X 3 FRE HME The Freshman Class of '76 demonstrated their school spirit by the enthusiasm they brought to Pius starting on the first day of school. They continued this by presenting their class float, A Football Bruin, at the Thanksgiving Football Game. The work and enthusiasm that Went into its building was shared by all, and was one of the highpoints of Thanksgiving '72. g In December, the class sponsored their first fund-raising event, a freshman-sophomore basketball game. By involving the two class levels the Class of ,76 attempted to increase spirit among underclassmen. ,,,, When it comes to activities that show? gen- uine concern and spirit for the school, the freshmen are constantly getting involved and are always there willing to help.

Let history record that we at this time, took the first step. John F. Kennedy's Address to the Nation Washington, D. C. July 26, 1963 The yearbook staff of Chi Rho wishes to thank all of those people who have contributed to the taking of that initial step in our first edi- tion. From our first yearbook meeting to our last deadline, we counted on these people for their assistance and guidance. They will be remem- bered always for their major part in our yearbook. Our sincere thanks to- Mr. Thomas Everett and Rae Publishing Company for this, the fin- ished product . . . Mr. Frank Merin, Mr. John Prignoli and Lorstan-Thomas Studio for their photographic talents . . . Our dedicated teachers, Miss Zimmerman, Mr. Fiadino, and Mr. Sussman. Also, the students who added their time and effort - Jim McKenna, Sean Nolan, and David Ulmes. A special and rather personal acknowledgement is extended to Miss Santoro, our moderator and closest friend.
