We are real, we live in a world of real things. Our hearts are not to be nourished on fantasies or nightmares, but on realities. This might well be Father Coughlin's motto in his personal, public and pastoral life. We are fortunate that our pastor is greatly interested in edu- cation. He advocates not only training in book knowledge but also by experience for informational and social gatherings. Not a small part of this educative process is our growing awareness of our golden opportunities at Shrine High. Father sets the standards high but he is understanding and help- ful. If we are not the best boys and girls in the world it will not be for lack of guidance and motivation from him, from the Sisters of Charity, and from the assistant priests. v --1 Rev Paul Matheson Born rn Loursvrlle, Kentuckyl God s Country as he saysl Father Juvenal flnushed hrs edu catron rn Oldenburg, Indrana Then, return mg to Loulsvllle, he spent three years teach mg and domg parrsh work Fresh from the South he comes to us Hrs wrt and humorous remarks, along wrth excellent unstructron, makes hrs socrology classes most mterestmg Wl Alll llllllllllllll lll A natuve Detrorter, Father comes to us from St Bernards Father Matheson recenved hrs lrcentuate degree rn theology from the Catholic Umversrty rn Washlngton A more able superrntendent could not be found, as hrs firm and quret manner testrfles The door of hrs offrce rs always open to us for drscussron of our problems We can truly be thankful to have such a fine dlrector Rev juvenal Pfalzer OFM . . , . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

He also has his own orchestra which has played for several school dances. Mr. Albert Halcli, right, comes to us from Vista Maria High School and teaches American history and sophomore English. Organist and choir director, Mr. Stanley Degorski has the freshman glee club. He is well-known here and abroad as a concert pianist and gymnast.

It moved in fast furious pace with good-natured rivalry and fun. Blue and gold signs covered the walls and each party tried to outdo the other.

With ideas popping faster than ever, Shrine C.S.M.C. conducted a pledge drive and went over the S1500 top. Students supplied religious articles and sacred vessels for the founding of a mission church. Soon also we began sending letters to 'pagans in the mission fields of Africa and China. To really prove that we had mission spirit, many homerooms helped support missions in India, Rome, China, and New Mexico to supplement their oth e r proiects. Special mention goes to Room 101 who brought in l26,000 cancelled stamps. L. to R.: M. L. Daley, J. Gagne, M. Boehmer, Fr. jobs Fr. Matheson.

As free men, Americans may follow their religious convictions and we are thankful that we have in- herited the true faith. That we may practice it openly is a blessing allowed to few nations in the world today.

While the maiority of the Shrine boys were cooling off in the various lakes, the football squad was sweating it out from 9 till l2, and back again from 1 to 4 on the dry, dusty practice field. lt is not easy to wear eighteen pounds of football equip- ment and run c few miles when it is 900. Our boys went through many hardships in their attempts to bring honor to Shrine. Many times during this rigorous training, the boys were tempted to quit, and some did, but those that could take it, came back day after day for more punish- ment. As the season progressed, the Knights came through with some good games and some bad. The wins were out- stripped by the losses but the result was character training.

IU P3 .1555 Y if Never champs but always the challengers, Shrine's '52 speedsters were sparked by such dash men as the Luther brothers lwho also try hurdlingl, Pat Bourbeau lbreaking the tapel, and Ron Merta. They proved a match for any school in the city. Bradley Smith did most of the distance runs, using those long legs to advantage. The boys with the muscles, Dave Peters and Dick Seery llower leftl, took the bulk of the heavy work, putting the shot. ,lr lllllliHlS llllll 5- t. -swat Let's bring home a trophy. Shrine's war cry echoed for three weeks of spring practice. Slowly the team rounded into shape and burst forth into the limelight by defeating Nativity 63 to 43. Led by veterans Platten, Panks, Wag- gener, Blanzy, and Boehmer, the team chalked up three straight sl victories. Aches and pains are a part of every season and ours came with Platten's sprained ankle, a loss we if could scarcely afford. Shrine's depth asserted itself, however, as Dave Peters filled the gap, and Johnny Burkart, throughout the season, developed into a great player. The Knights met stitter competition and dropped three: Lourdes, Mt. Carmel, and Holy Redeemer. Jim Panks stepped into the spot- light by breaking Al Stepanski's previous record of 27 points, by scoring 28 against St. Patrick's. l Platten tied the old mark. Nice going, Cap'n, cheer the local champs. 1. JIM PANKS QCo-Caphl, Jim is one of the greatest point collectors in Shrine history. He has led the scoring here for the past two years. racking up over 300 points this season. Jim was selected on the All- S.O.C.'s first team. 2. CONRAD ILANZY fCo-Capt.j7Connie was well known for his scrappy floor game and could always be counted an in the clutch. He played guard tor three years and was placed on the All- S.O.C. team in his iunior year. 3. PETER PLATTEN, Pete got a late start but came through in the tournament to help spark the team to the district trophy. He was chosen for the All-S.O.C. squad of which he was one ot the five highest scorers. 4. lOl WAGGENER, Waggs played a steady brand of ball all season and was a real ball-hawk when the going was tightest. He reached his scoring peak in the tournaments, and was chosen on the All-S.O.C. team. 5. JOHN IURKART, Johnny was the only underclassman on the first team. He played good ball throughout the year and gave Shrine the added scoring punch from outside. lSlllllZl H MS Since we entered the First Division, St. Theresa has been our arch rival and for first time we turned the tables 52 to 49. led by co-captains Jim Panks and Conrad Blanzy, our team tied for fourth place be- fore entering the tournaments. Our conquest began with Fitzgerald who, after a bruising battle, folded to the shells of Panks and Platten, 60 to 52. St. James then proceeded to riddle our defense and almost stopped our attack. However Shrine triumphed 53 to 52, for the first regional trophy the boys have captured in four years. The try for district championship proved heartbreaking, for in the last phase, the Knights bowed to St. Andrew's. Coach Buchanan's work has produced men and champs, a season and spirit of which both he and Shrine can be proud. 6.

Luck was with them for the next two games and they handed St. .Frederick's and St. Michael's the wrong end of two decisions. Because of our iniuries and absentees, St. Frederick's were able to come back and defeat us 26 to 20. Following tradition, the girls again made the CYO finals. The first game brought us against St. Theresa, the east side champs, and although the girls played well, they were set back 27 to 32. On the following Sunday, the best game of the season was played against St. Patrick's. We led up till the last quarter when St. Pat's tied it up. Finally, Shrine managed a one-point lead but their opponents had a break in a basket sunk from mid-court and nosed us out. That ended the season, the last for nine seniors. intramurals deluxe.

However, in the beginning of the year, tennis, badminton, baseball and archery were the main interests. Many girls at Shrine find badminton a fast and in- teresting sport. Something new and different was offered this year, archery. Not many had tried this sport before, but the girls were game and found out that it really takes a keen eye. Of course, when the weather was favorable, baseball was the big thing and every gym period found 8 or lO girls out playing on the west campus.
