ur guiding Star Reverend Bonaventure J. Gilmore Principal Coming from an established high school in Joliet, Illinois, Father Bonaventure became principal of Salpointe in its early days of development. He accepted the task of guiding and directing the growing school. When a new building made possible a Catholic education for many more young people of Tucson, Father prayerfully and thoughtfully planned new courses and curriculum to meet their needs. It is to his painstaking efforts that we are indebted for the progress already achieved. Even though his responsibility as principal is heavy, .Father is ever ready to look up from his desk to counsel, instruct, or just to give a friendly smile.

ur uperinfencfent Reverend William McCariin Diocesan Superintendent of Schools The story of Salpointe, Tucson's first Catholic high school, would not be complete if it did not include the diocesan superintendent of schools. Newly appointed to this office is Father William McCartin, who replaced Rt. Reverend Mon- signor Don H. Hughes, pastor of St. Ambrose Parish. The diocesan school superintendent not only has the responsibility to guide parochial schools, but the welfare of all Catholic pupils in the Tucson diocese is his utmost concern. Since his ordination, Father has served as assistant pastor at SS. Peter and Paul's Parish. Father is presently conclud- ing his studies at the University of Arizona, and much of his time is already taken up at his new office quarters. In his new capacity, Father will have much to offer for the ad- vancement of Catholic education in the diocese. li ,
