A T lx F B kl camera club -, C an A s Hours of toil in the red hue of the darkroom resulted in membership of the Camera Club being limited to twelve students. Through instructive lectures and practical demonstrations the persistent workers have progressed rapidly in the knowledge of correct exposure, pleasing portraiture, and effective toning. Proof of their success lies in the fact that three members won prizes in the city-wide contest it sponsored. The club president, loe Cuba, assisted by secretary Robert Hacker worked out the details for this contest. The superb blending of the photo-montages appearing in this book is the work of Brother Gabriel Galos, Camera Club moderator. The pictures in this book and those in the monthly Clarion were shots taken by Brother Gabriel and his club. l ' 'Living Catholic Authors .. e Living Catholic Authors of the Past and Present started as a supple- ment to the Clarion but it soon outgrew that form. The field of Catholic literature had to be covered by something bigger, something greater. And it was. Brother George Schuster's project so completely filled the need for a basic introduction to Catholic literature, that since its appearance in February it has reached the hands of over 30,000 teachers and students all over the country. The work of Brother and his staff is a success, so much so that the clamors for more will be answered by a second edition in August. LOVER srunul i l or ne: ummm I 5 l BENZ YU! 'ff

Frey students' choice blend- . . . The Clarion is a truly exceptional high school paper. Under the expert supervision of Brother George Schuster, the staff turned out six issues of vital- ized news articles, distinctive features, sound editorials, and snappy sports articles. A veteran staff was on hand to scoop the district by publishing a Clarion the first clay of school. True to his posi- tion as editor-in-chief, Robert Belscher filled most of the editorial column with material that springs from a thinking mind. Ioe Muenster, whose wit, dash, and breezy style brought grins and chuckles from readers, was the Clarion's associate editor. Lawrence Lawton, as feature editor, was responsible for the majority of those running metaphors that gave polish to the paper. The sports editor, reporter, and writer all in one, George Frey, covered his field in a way that made his readers look for more. The subtle humor of Francis Chenot was joined by the characteristic style of Fred Kup- pinger to round out the staff of seniors. luniors Cuba, Guilfoy, and fudge served an arduous apprenticeship to form the foundation of next year's staff. uenster, R.

Swing band -. .. is. . The idea of a swing band is Rudy G-abrian's. Last September he found Len Forthaus with a hot trumpet and Harry Stonum who could really pound the skins and make with the rhythm. Rudy played the piano. He got another trumpet and four saxophones, a guitar and a double bass. This was the orchestra. All worked hard and were good. The orchestra took its first bow at a senior social in December, and from then to class day every athletic and social event found it improved. By the end of the year they had about fifty numbers. And now Rudy scores another success, accor- dionist, pianist, teacher, arranger, orchestra leader and now composer. He has written a song, a combination of a farewell to Alma Mater and a reminiscent march. lt is his tribute to the school in the name of the whole senior class. Top' K. Thum, B. Heilweck, G. Peters.

Forty-eight boys answered present at the Club's gatherings. Though they practiced constantly, the glee boys were unemployed until March 23, when they contributed to the City House Choral Festival. Several weeks later a few numbers were offered at the school's oratory contest. The singers reached the climax of the season by doing their part between acts of Help Yourself.
