As we think, so we are, and since our thoughts are such a vital part of us, we have chosen REFLECTIONS as the theme of our book this year. Thoughts precede every action: they follow each memorable occasion: happy and warm, sad and serious, carefree and lighthearted - they fill every moment of our lives. We learn to appreciate through reflections. Looking on the loveliness of the world, seeing its beauty, and sharing in its sorrow, we realize some of the wonder of both through the wonderful power of our minds. Our thoughts give light to two kinds of understanding - the understanding through which we comprehend facts and ideas, and the selfless kind of understanding through which we purchase the priceless treasure of a friend. As we grow in wisdom and age, our thoug ts lpecome more profound.

Ag 1 Sc o X W5 if thirty U, fl Qilqjviyyrgiw M M P---... For nineteen long years Pope Pius XII strove to bind the world to God. At last, the tension caused by the seemingly ever-widening gap proved too much for his body-his own frailest link-and the chain broke. Pope Pius XII was dead, The whole world felt the loss and this lone- liness was in the hearts of individuals. At St. Agnes, we too reflected this sorrow in the un- ashamed tears which were shed and in the very real feeling of a personal loss, But though we still miss the earthly presence of this saintly man, we are now consoled by reflecting that he is in heaven, still strengthen- ing that chain to God, POPE PIUS XII A great light went out on earth and a new star was horn in heaven POPE .IOHN XXIII So let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven new We have a pope! Resounding throughout school with these words was the tense joy and unprecedented excitement which gripped every one of us at St, Agnes. Breathlessly we received the announcement of the election of Angelo Cardinal Roncalli. now Pope Iohn XXIII, as the 262nd Supreme Pontiff of the Catholic Church. Assuming his task in one of the Church's most troubled periods. he was following a clearly loved and respected Holy Father-the only one we had ever known. Through the months, however, his warm interest and zealous charity have completely captured our hearts, for we have come to realize that, in our Pope. we have again a true father-another Christ. AFTER THE DIRECT BROADCAST of the Papal election results over thc public address system. true womanly curiosity surrounded every tiny picture of the new Pope which was available. 7 HIS EXCELLENCY BISHOP KEARNEY bestows at candle on St. Agnes Sodality Prefect lndith Russel' at the diocesan-wide Sodality Mass on Cnndlemns UAV.

We're always happiest when we're with our friends, and when Bishop Kearney comes to St. Agnes, we are delighted. Even when he is not here in person, we have his contributions to our traditions - the crucifix and the painting of St. Agnes on our altar, our school song, the name of our yearbook, remembered words from his fatherly talks - all reminding us of his thought for us. Because he has truly been our friend, Bishop Kearney will always be a part of our most cherished reflections. MOST REVEREND IAMES E. KEARNEY, D.D.

Sister is constantly thinking of our welfare - always trying to do the things which will be best for each and every member of her family . Anyone who has worked with Sister in any capacity, will be quick to confirm that she is a tireless servant of God, striving constantly to guide those in her care with wisdom and sureness on the path of truth and goodness.

Since she serves S.A.I-I. as head of the Homemaking Department in addition to this administrative post, Sister's duties are many and varied. During the course of the day, Sister gives attendance slips to tardy students, assists Sister Rose Alma in the maintenance of the school, and teaches those in Home Economics class how to bake apple pies, So, in many ways, St. Agnes students are grateful to Sister for all she has done.

The Fathers' Club, Fathers pet, has now com- pleted its third year of operation. Father LeVeque, as moderator of this organization, is the chief father of St. Agnes. Besides his extra-curricular activities, Father gives generously of his advice and time as our spiritual director and Chaplain.

Truly, students at St. Agnes are busy from early morning till late afternoon. But there are those whose work con- tinues right around the clock. These industrious souls are members of our maintenance staff, Mr. Wratni, who is our chief custo- dian, keeps the grounds and buildings looking neat and tidy. On snowy winter days he can be seen straddling his ole snow plow, furiously crushing those piles of snow which block our way, Within the halls of the school, Mr. Kipferl, or as we know him. Mr. Phil, is also on the job removing ob- stacles. I-le is either stacking milk bottles or piling crates. But our maintenance staff would not be complete without Mrs. Schoenheit, who every night deftly adds the wo- man's touch to bring order from dis- order. After all, it must be left in a suitable condition before it can be guarded by our meticulous night watch- man, Mr. Shellman, who each night babysits for the school. Due to the efforts of this capable staff, our school always presents a bright and shiny picture. CNE OF MR.

Each morning, enticing aromas filling the air at St. Agnes assure us that the cafeteria staff is busily at work. For, while the students are' attending their morning classes, our 'fconnoisseursn of cooking are preparing varieties of savory food to suit the tastes of everyone. Careful planning by our dietician, Mrs. Maher, results in menus which delight the palate and provide needed energy for those afternoon classes. Baking and cooking aren't all that comprise the work of the cafeteria staff, however. After each shift, piles of dishes and numerous pieces of silverware are washed and dried. Then, the tables which have been well used by St. Agnes' eight hundred students are wiped spotlessly clean for the next day's use. Working together for the same purpose -1 to satisfy the appetities and provide for the nourish- ment of the students'-our cafeteria staff functions smoothly day after day.

Iuicy hot dogs, tasty dishes of ravioli, and sometimes even special treats such as roast turkey and chicken a la king are just a few of the flavorful lunches made available in the St. Agnes cafeteria. This year, a new and very successful sys- tem was set up, by which the Freshmen start off the lunch period at ten minutes to eleven, with the influx of Sophs, Iuniors. and Seniors at intervals of fifteen minutes respectively. Each class has a half-hour lunch and a fifteen-minute homeroom period. Each day, the long line of girls who anticipate the hot lunch is a sure sign that the delectable varieties of food are appre- ciated by all. To top off the lunch, delicious desserts such as crispy apple brown Betty's, tender cherry upside-down cakes, and lus- cious lemon chiffon pies are served, with apples and ice cream as extras. No wonder most girls ignore their diets and come back for second helpingsl GREAT CARE IS TAKEN in the preparation of our lunches.

In order to pursue our everyday studies, we must use the power of thought with the inten- tion of enriching our minds. Studying teaches us to think for ourselves, to conceive ideas which develop our intellect, to contemplate views which broaden our interests. None of these can be accomplished without earnest thought. And ultimately, our reasoned reflections direct our thoughts toward Him Who bestowed on us this wonderful gift of intellect. 17 'QQ' Nga: 'iifaii def!-In 6 fx .

Some events are known around the world and others are significant only to us at St, Agnes - but all make up our hi-lites of mem- ories of 1958-1959. Back-to-school days brought a national crisis in the South where the question of integration caused uprisings and strained LI. S. relations around the world. In October. Our Holy Father, Pope Pius XII died, and several weeks later, we witnessed the election and coronation of Pope lohn XXIII. The Space Age became more advanced with our launching of satellites around the moon and sun. Texas lost its prominence as the largest state in the Union when Alaska was admitted as the forty- ninth state in Ianuary. In March the stars on Old Glory were again increased to fifty-when Con- gress approved statehood for Hawaii. World wide tension was increased with the Rus- sian proposal to merge East and West Berlin. History repeated itself in December when Chicago witnessed another spectacular fire - the burning of Our Lady of the Angels School which took ninety- two lives. Spotlights were focused on Hollywood on April 6th for the Academy Awards when Gigi re- ceived the Oscar as the best picture of the year. On April 17th, Bishop Kearney left for Rome to deliver his Ad Limina - a report on the progress of the diocese - to the Holy Father, made of this . .. Leotards, spool-heels and Empire waists hi-lited the Fashion World with only a faint memory of the chemise. From September, when we returned to school to find a neat new schedule featuring a general school- wide study period to start the day and an alternating ''lunch-religion-homeroom'' period at noon, right up until Iune, when the Class of '59 became the first to graduate at the Eastman Theatre, events have occurred, adding new thoughts to our memories of 1958-1959. LIFE IN A GOLDFISH BOWL was the lot of our celebrities at the hands of yearbook photography staff. Barbara Martin. Margery Palmer, Sharon Reedy and Gloria Stone. The celebrity in this case is Karal Marling, who won a weeks trip to Cali- fornia in the Shaggy Dog Contest. V565-' ALTHOUGH ST. AGNES HIGH walked away with many honors at the Diocesan Science Fair.

As Freshmen, we study the life of Christ, while as Sophomores we delve into a thorough study of the truths of our Faith: Church History is intricately investigated by third year students: as Seniors, we culminate our religious training with a course in Apologetics where we strengthen the knowledge we have already learned so that we are prudent and convinced Catholics. Living and loving our faith will, in a sense, keep us together long after we graduate from St. Agnes. Sister Marie Matthew The mild expression spoke a mind In duty firm. composed, resigned.

It was the second day of Holy Week and the beginning of our three day retreat. Each day began thus. not with the usual shrill call to classes, but with our assistance at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

For many Seniors, it was a thought-provoking time in which they made important decisions for their years ahead.

As Freshmen, St. Agnes students are invited to join the Sodality, and during the ensuing year they become acquaint- ed with the whys and wherefores of the Sodality aims, Sophomore, Iunior and Senior Sodalists, having been for- mally received into the Sodality, now realize both its pur- pose and value, and concentrate on becoming good members. Mainly, they strive to grow in personal holiness, always re- membering the all important point of drawing others to Iesus through Mary. WHAT ARE THEY? Why, Moslems of course!

Barbara Seils and lean Klier met Sister Helenmarie, a Holy Ghost Sisterlwho is from Rochester. ln October. Sister Helenmarie was able to visit her home on her way hack to Africa and stopped at SAH to give a fascinating assembly talk on their mission in Ghana. Stamps, pennies, nickles, and dimes of student sacrifices, and ideas often flooded room 106 when the Mission Council met. There, busy hands and minds worked with dexterous deter- mination under the direction of Sister Dorothy Ellen. On October 31, the Council undertook the first of its two biggest events -- the annual Mission Dance which this year was named 'AHallowe'en Fantasy. Mission spirit was also pepped up at assemblies in the audi- torium. ln November when Sister Helenmarie, a Divine Word missionary from Africa, came to St. Agnes, students could feel those snakes she described crawling right up their spines. En- thusiasm and gales of laughter reigned in December when Father Tierney, enthralled his audience with his experiences in Pakistan. Bursting balloons, laughter, and shuffling feet filled St. Agnes in May at the annual Mission Day -1 the most im- portant undertaking of the Mission Council.

To crown the Kings English with perfection is the aim of every English student. Constant chatter in and around St, Agnes proves that we have truly mastered fluency in the English language, but this is only one result of our studying English, Creative writing and an appreciation of great literary works are just as important. As Freshmen leaf through the pages of short stories such as Rudyard Kipling's Wee Willie Winkien and Van Dykes 'AThe Other Wise Man , they revel in the realm of the imagination which unfolds in books. Sophomores often become so enthralled with such novels as Spring Comes Ori Forever that they can feel the winds from Nebraska blowing right past. Writing on the spur of the moment helps them to be- come fast thinkers. Hearing records of Iudith Andersen in Medea and lose Ferrer as Cyrano de Bergerac captivates Iunior English students in their Drama study. They agree that it is the most painless way of learning to appreciate literature. The scope of English opens wide to the Seniors who. while struggling with essays and sonnets and reading the involved works of Shakespeare and Chesterton, learn to love their cultural heritage.

When we think of the library, the first thought that enters our mind is books-old, new and overdue. Old books with smudged pages tell of those who have spent hours in absorbed interest. Torn bindings relate journeys in sun and snow - and mud- puddles. New books are those that still smell of glue and ink with pages that crinkle and flap back as you turn them-pages un- believably white. Overdue books cause the borrower much anguish, dismay and shame. These books seem to lose themselves in the hidden corners of dark rooms. Our library contains innumerable books which are suitable for each class in the school. Besides good books, our library has a pleasant atmosphere. lts location on the third floor, the lovely view of the school entrance, and the quiet which reigns as in all libraries make it an enjoyable spot. Most striking is the prevailing air of help- fulness which is personified by our librarian. Sister Mary Stephen. Seniors in the Library Club, too, soon contract this helpful air and while most stu- dents are taking, these girls are giving- study halls and energy to make our library even more pleasantly efficient.

Many frauleins, mademoiselles and puellae do not find the class period sufficient time to spend in Bonn, Paris, or Rome: therefore, our language clubs flourish. Tapping their feet to folk tunes and raising their voices in traditional melodies from along the Rhine comprise a fun-filled schedule for those who attend German Club meetings. Mademoiselles of Le Cercle Francais are as gay as Parisiennes especially on the feastkof St, Catherine. On this day, the members make and model charming chapeaux to catch their beaus.

It has been a rather generally accepted fact that mathematics and girls can never be close friends. However, here at St. Agnes, this idea is daily refuted as X2 and yz walk hand in hand with the Freshmen and Sophomores. Of course, Iuniors and Seniors are more particular in their tastes. Why, they wouldn't think of being seen with any- one except V b2-4aC or perhaps fQxl:2x2-fix. As the girls become better acquainted with these numerical comrades, they start to realize their true worth. No longer do they regard them merely as passing fancies, or worse still, as im- aginary nonentities.

In November, students viewed with envy the elegant fashions modeled by members of the Homemaking Club in a fashion show sponsored by McCurdy's.

They had survived audi- tions, and their voices were deemed worthy to be heard at special occasions during the year. On December 8th, their poise and perfection charmed their audience-admittedly a partial one- at the Mothers' Club Christmas Party. Caroling In David's Town and The First Noel, the Fresh- men added sparkle to the Christmas spirit which was beginning to fill everyone's heart. At our Christmas Assembly, the Freshman Chorus again lent their strains adding extra enjoyment to the festivities of the occasion. During more months of practice, their voices grew in richness and polish. At the Spring Concert in May, the Chorus displayed the excellent training which they had received from their director Sister Anne Virginia. Freshmen receive invaluable experience in the Chorus, but most of all, the time they spend singing is one of the most pleasant memories of their first year at St. Agnes.

Tapping toes are often detected at St, Agnes when the Band practices its zippy marches and gliding waltzes, Hours of patience and persistence in smoothing out each note and measure finally result in the band's delighting their audience. Under the direction of Sister Agnes Teresa, the theory of sound is diligently learned by each member, until soon it becomes an enjoyable task especially when it is put to practical use producing catchy strains of melody. Our band at St. Agnes is only in its second year but it has already acquired the precision of more experienced groups. At the Christmas Party and Spring Concert, the ease with which they displayed their talents under the guest conductor, Mr. Richard McCrystal, and the enthusiastic applause of the audience proved that their time and diligence are well worthwhile. - ..ffte.'Q9nej1l0S2Ph MANY Hourzs AND MUCH PATIENCE have enabled ' 3356855 for Carol lBeethovenl Ballard to be a distinguished music graduate Instrumental Music. zn each Sister Agnes Teresa Music resembles poetry Are nameless graces which no methods teach, And which a master-hand alone can reach.

She was always worried about doing the right thing in front of her friends and had tried so hard to have her family cooperate. Up till now they had at least tried, but now Father had ruined everything. He had actually gotten himself arrested for not paying a delinquent tax bill! Naturally, the presence of Fathers unusual asso- ciates, Mrs. Potts, Miss Norris, and Mr. Kolby, did not help any. If it hadn't been for her mother, Maggie's social life might have been completely de- molished. As it was, of course, Maggie managed to survive the entire ordeal, and thanks to Governor Stillson, was restored to the good graces of her friends. Hilariously horrible dreams at the close of each act showed Maggie's inner fears in their worst possible forms and convulsed the capacity audience. The Senior Class presented this drama, 'iDream a Little Dream. with a spirit of fun and reality. They convincingly conveyed a glimpse-exaggen ated but true-of the turmoils and tribulations a teen-ager can get wound up in. Delighted to put it on, dismayed to find it over so soon, the Seniors loved and were proud of A'Dream a Little Dream.

Crimson and gold leaves scuttled along sidewalks on Halloween Eve with all the little tricks-or-treatersf' and that evening they also ushered St. Agnes students up to delightful mo- ments at Halloween Fantasy - the annual Mission Dance. Christmas time was filled with frosty snowflakes, ringing bells and excited, busy Seniors. They were preparing for Candy Cane Cotillion -- the very first Senior-Alumnae Dance. See- ing the old Seniors again was one of the happiest moments of that Decem- ber evening. Lacy Valentine mobiles and flaming red hearts disguised the gym on Febru- ary 6th when the Student Council pre- sented Hearts in Harmony -- the annual Valentine Dance. Spot dances and a dancing contest judged by Radio and TV Announcer, Eddie Meath, were the high-lights of the occasion. EDDIE MEATH of WHEC-TV crowned Sophomore Ann Ledoux as Queen of the Valentine Dance after she and Terry Baumer had topped runners-up Sandra Shatzel and Denny Owen in the Dance Contest. ON THAT DAY AFTER the night before, untangling fish nets was much less elegant than dancing among them in the setting of South Pacific - the theme of the Iunior Prom! But it's almost as much fun. as these cleaner-uppers could tell you. The magical spell of Bali Ha'i de- scended upon St. Agnes in April at the Iunior Prom, Some Enchanted ,Even- ing. Elegant decorations brought the palm trees, coral sands and sparkling waters of the South Pacific right to St. Agnes. On Iune 19, Seniors, still hearing the majestic organ strains from their grad- uation the night before, came together for their last function as the class of '59, Soft lights, fragrant flowers, white ball gowns and tuxedoes, and the sen- timent of the evening, combined to make this the most memorable dance of the four years at St. Agnes. 63 Wwe? ' OO 15 ' y KJ :NJ ins. ANNE MURA, Class of '58, served tea to mem- bers of the Mothers' Club at the annual spring tea put on by the Home Economics students. Every second Monday of the month, the mothers of St. Agnes' girls can justifiably be excused from a few of their household chores, so that they may join in the fun and work which the Mothers' Club meetings provide. Throughout the year, a variety of entertainment is planned for the members, including the Mother- Daughter Christmas party, the April card party, and even a 'ichapeauxw fashion show sponsored by the Marks' Hat Shop. ln May, the Mother- Daughter Communion breakfast was held with guest speaker Father Iohn Havas, SJ, Besides these events, our busy mothers had a White Elephant Sale in Ianuary and a Red Cross Work meeting in March. Of course, a meeting wouldn't be complete with- out refreshments, so a delicious lunch and bubbling conversation always rounded off each meeting. MOTHERS' CLUB OFFICERS, Mrs. Ioseph Ryan, Mrs. Marie Ritz, Mrs. Raymond Weis, and Mrs. Paul Gears were planning to step out for a Club-sponsored Fashion Show at Sibley's in Southtown Plaza in March. Q wiQQ AT THE MARCH MEETING. Mrs. Cali learned how to make these cute stuffed animals from Mrs. l-lofschneicler, an adept demonstrator from the Red Cross. Later, some of the Mothers' Club members got together and made them as a Red Cross project. lN HER PRIZE-WINNING ESSAY on Why My Father Should Be Father of the Year Sophomore Karen Kirby con- vinced the judges. and Mr. Kirby has been the top St. Agnes Dad for this year. as he's always been for Karen.

Daughter Sharon looks as though she can taste it already. Usually it is truly a womans world at St. Agnes. but every third Thursday, the men - our own fathers - take over. Good hearty laughs and delicious food fill the time they spend with Father Le Veque talking over ideas and plans at the Fathers' Club. Each month our fathers hear interesting guest speakers such as Father Austin Hanna, Mr. Iohn Temmerman or the Iohn Fisher Debating Club. thereby broadening their knowledge of timely affairs. fAnd, by savoring each scrumptious smorgasbord, they also broaden their waist- lineslj In November, our fathers seem to be the busiest, Then, they select the turkeys, plan the booths, and tune up their auctioneering voices for the Thanksgiving Festival, the suc- cess of which always exceeds our most hopeful expectations. our patents. 3- N4-. -...umnmlfllililtllllifliisliilllllll I, tw,-....

Not only the Seniors anticipate that moment, but under-classmen reflect on its becoming a reality, too. As we grow in ambition, enthusiasm, and friendliness, occurrences of our high school days are filed away as memories, so that our utogethernessu will be kept through these thoughts. Each moment as an underclassman is important. The determination and vitality of a Senior does not come suddenly, but increases gradually, as we wind our way through our Freshman, Sophomore and Iunior Years. As we cultivate our talents, we learn, too, that moments are happier when spent in giving rather than in receiving. Each reflection as an underclassman is a memory of the past or a light into the future. . ' 'Qi my-' 66 PLEASANT, PEPPY, AND POISED are the Freshman Class Officers: Nancy Gian- forte.

Treasurer. Qcliose who receive Each year, the Freshmen, Sophomores, Iuniors, and Seniors have separate assemblies to determine who will represent them as class officers throughout the coming year. This is an important procedure, for these representatives must be capable of handling great responsibilities - keeping their class united by promoting class spirit, and of undertaking many projects and activities with their classmates. Students who were chosen as class officers this year carried out their duties willingly and successfully. Each officer possessed such qualities as leadership, initiative, friendliness to all, and, most important, a good sense of humor. Of course, it isn't just Ufollow the leader, for all the members of each class do their part by taking interest in class activities, cooperating with their elected representatives, and giving their talents as generously as though they were the ones in the spotlight. 68 TOPS IN THE IUNIOR CLASS are Katherine Noll. Anne Eckl. Ann Marie Rappl. Mary Alice Lauineyer and lacqueline Vallot, must he generous im giving. All during the year, significant Hspecialtiesn occur aside from the usual daily routine, These are the honors signifying excellence of work which we merit, sparking our determination and enthusiasm, and polish- ing the prestige of iand also our pride inll our school. Long scholarship lists of 90 + students after each report prove that sometimes burying your nose in a book isn't such a bad idea and definitely produces results. Essayists and poets have brought honor to St. Agnes. too. This year seven Sophomores were top winners in the National High School Poetry Contest, and two Seniors rated first and i'second in Monroe County in an essay contest on Hire the Handicapped spon- sored by the American Legion. On March 14th at the Diocesan Science Fair at McQuaid, our own Lavoisiers and Einsteins walked off with top honors - first place in biology, first place on group biology by the Sophomore Science Club, second place in chemistry, and seven ratings of finalist, Besides each of these more evident rewards, how- ever, each of us continuously tries to reflect credit on our school by wearing the uniform with pride and respect, bringing others to know and honor St. Agnes High School through us. LOTS YOHONN, GAIL WEGMAN. LINDA SHEE- HAN, Sally Beecher, and Karal Marling are the highest in scholastic average in the Sophomore class. SOME OF THE FRESHMAN STUDENTS who have maintained an average of 95472, or above since their entrance into St. Agnes are Mary Owens, Karen Krapf, Lorraine Bocci, Kathleen Thaney and Barbara Dobbertin. 69 .lf 'VZ W: 63?-2 if 5' T 1 'I Q! v , Y '21 ' 4+ as WL., Y 1 ,.LLVL i V,,: 42 'fife?3E 5 , X 1 ,, . ,V 4 amfnitiovfs time Snowy-white blouses, wrinkle free and shine-less uniforms and highly- polished shoes are sure signs of a Freshman. Besides these marks, Fresh- men seem to have an air of cautious- ness as they wander through the long halls of S.A.H. surveying all the new sights which lie behind classroom doors. Their wide-open eyes watch the treas- ures which are unfolded in books and experience as they step into this new phase of their lives. Freshmen begin their high school days with vim and vitality which soon results in their be- coming Agneses , possessing sound principles and high ideals. The stiff shyness of their first days is softened as the Freshmen start to find new friendships and get that to- gethernessn feeling. After the first few weeks, Freshmen get into the swing of changing classes, having a different teacher for each subject and opening combination-lockers with speed and ac- curacy. They soon can find the library or bookstore or especially - the cafe- teria, as quickly as any of the upper- classmen. H0 EROOM 304 fSeatedl Kathleen Lebbon.

They vied for top position in selling tickets for the Thanksgiving festival and won highest honors. As a result, homeroom 301 traveled to Syracuse early in December for a Cinerama holiday. On November 26, colorful skirts and sweaters replaced the usual uniform, announcing subtly to the rest of the school that the Freshmen were antici- pating a traditional treat - the annual skating party with the first year stu- dents of McQuaid. Towards the end of the school year, the Freshmen displayed graciousness and poise as hostesses during the Reg- istration of the incoming class.

Now having a broader knowledge and more mature approach, the Iuniors are beginning to be set on their ambitions for the future, and are trying to plan carefully for their ulti- mate goals. An outstanding spirit of cooperation and genuine Hniceness has always been shown by the Class of '60. ln December, they proudly presented their Christmas play, 'Sing Nowellf' for which many of the actresses cleverly created their own costumes. Each Iunior who went to her class i'Splash Party in November, certainly has many refreshing memories of that fun-filled occasion. The class really kept the ball rolling at another event - a bowling party at the Brighton Bowl in December. Strikes might not have been made by every girl, but the affair was truly a hit for everyone. HOMEROUM 205 wisdom, lFirst Rowj Mary Ann Clasgens.

Fusion Mathematics, a combination of Intermediate Algebra and Trigonometry, was offered for the first time this year and taken up enthusiastically by the more mathematically-minded members of the class. With these and American History and Latin lll and Biology and more, the Iuniors' schedules were full this year: but their efforts met the challenge, for, as usual, their class scholarship lists were rewardingly long.

Red, yellow, green, blue and white mittens flashed all around St. Agnes during wintery days un- til suddenly late in Ianuary, when this array of colors disappeared from the Iunior Class, They didn't seem to mind the cold freez- ing their fingers a bit, but, of course, there was a very good reason for it, On Ianuary 28. the luniors received their long-await- ed class rings and were eager to display them conspicuously. From September almost to February, the Seniors were the only wearers of the ring. Then, on that memorable day when Bishop Kearney came to bless their rings. the Iuniors began to glow with the special pride and satisfaction of knowing that they, too. were fast approaching Senior year. if ,:1:,.q,..

The leaders of the Class of '59 stand out among these cherished mem- ories, for it is these students who have al- ways put their best foot forward and given willingly of themselves, their talents and their time to their class and school. However, a multitude of girls whose names were never brightly in the spotlight during these four years did tremendously much for St. Agnes by their fine cooperation with their teachers and their friends, by their active and warm participation in all school projects, and by just being the fine and loyal SAH students they always were. These are the Seniors who will always be remembered in future years. ALWAYS AT THEIR BEST were our Senior Class Dtlieers lvlaureen Egan. Vice-President: Carol Ballard. Treasurer: Elizabeth Snyder.

Back in their Freshman year Mary Naughton, Carol Wilfeard, Patricia Burke. Nora Maxwell. and Carol Ballard were among the S.A.H. girls who attended the Mission Scenerama. All sorts of green shades naturally tinted the class of '59 as Freshmen. Not having had time to warm up to the friendliness which abounds at St. Agnes, they were awed by the dignity of the upperclassmen-especially the lordly seniors whom, incidentally, they out- numbered seven to one. However, the Uenormousn size of the class didn't de- tain them a bit from quickly acquiring the family spirit which prevails at S.A.H. Getting down to brass tacks was a tedious task but they were soon settled and in full swing. ln October, 1955, they had their first opportunity to bring honor to St. Agnes. Pencils in hand and thinking caps on tight, they wrote a five hundred word essay on 1'The World's People Are Our Neighbors - What Can We Do for Them? This was a diocesan-wide contest sponsored as part of the Mission Scenerama held at the War Memorial that year. The class was both excited and proud when it came up with a winner-Laurie Valerio. who received her award from Bishop Fulton Sheen's own hands on the stage of the War Memorial.

St. Augustine OH, PLEASE SIGN MY YEARBOOKV' This familiar cry clamors through our halls each year. Mary lo Werthmaii. Ioan Button, Elizabeth Snyder, Bernice Vallot. and Christine Slowik sought out the nearest spot-the hall-to do their autographing. More activities began to be added to the extra-curriculum as St. Agnes adapted itself to the growing number. A Freshman Chorus was formed, with the Class of '59 as the very first mem- bers. Each week they practiced fervently under Sister Anne Virginia's direction for their debut at the Christmas Assem- bly. Wiiiniiig deserved praise then, they redoubled efforts for the Spring Con- cert when they proudly performed with the Glee Club. ln February, when potential St. Ag- nes Freshmen came to take the scholar- ship exam, the Class of '59 acted as poised and gracious hostesses. They presented on the stage l'The Cafeteria Angel which told the eighth graders in a clever way all about life at St. Agnes High School. Sharon Kelly wrote the skit which won over others entered in a contest held in Sister Stella Regina's English class. Toward the end of their first year. the class again showered their charm on their future Ulittle sisters during the Registration Days in May. They conducted guided tours which quite wore out some of the accompanying parents, but which were perfect reflec- tions of the pride and enthusiasm they had acquired during their happy Fresh- man days.

With uniforms a bit shinier, shoes a little less highly polished, friendships much warmer and eyes twinkling with eagerness, the Fifty-niners came back to school as Sophomores in Sep- tember of 1956. Cheers and squeals of excitement echoed throughout the first-floor halls of SAH one day that September. What was the reason for their elatedness? Student Council representatives had just been elected, and the final choices brought both delight and satisfaction to each homeroom. Mary Ann Lodato, 105, Iosephine Valenti, 106, Sharon Reedy, 107,-Maryann Patti, 109, and Carol Wilfeard. 110, were the lucky reps, Turkey time in November brought the very first Thanksgiving Festival to St. Agnes. The present Seniors put up a fun-filled struggles to sell tickets for the festival. The Fathers' Club prom- ised each homeroom that reached its quota an exciting evening at the Hock- ey Game.

Puzzling geometry propositions and tricky Latin translations were pleasantly interrupted at the end of October, when the present Seniors became involved with preparing for Freshmen-Sopho- more Day. While Freshmen had the jitters nervously wondering what they were up to, the Class planned unfor- gettable surprises. A party look disguised the cafeteria with streamers and favors. Gaily wrap- ped gifts - rattles, bottles and bibs - reminded each Freshman that she was a baby at St. Agnes. The Class pro- duced and directed a skit, 'iThe Flying Saucer, in which Martians invaded St. Agnes and everyone in the auditorium had a sneak preview of future events.

At the end of the performance, tumbling balloons descended upon the audience from the catwalk, ending the day with a colorful climax. In their second year, the '59ers in- augurated another new tradition at St. Agnes -f the first Sophomore Dance. Bulletin boards were uniquely decorated to announce 'ASpring's First Song, named by Ioanne Richardson and a contest was held to judge the best one. Homeroom 109 came up as the winner. The decorations at the dance were de- lightful, due to the careful planning of Mary Kay Clendenning. A sparkling fountain in a flower bedecked cafeteria and enchanting music are some of the memories the class will never forget. i MARY LOU HART 4796 St. Paul Blvd. St. Thomas You know what l mean! . . . stately and statuesque . . . mellow- voiced . . , Lu . . . genuinely generous . . . loves to eat . . .

It's been a long time since the Seniors played with dolls, but in their Sopho- more year, they played mothers to one hundred sixty school age children and about two hundred tiny babies. The children lived in lnchon, Korea, at the Star of the Sea Children's Home. The new parents tried to fill the hearts of their adopted family with letters and packages to restore some of the happi- ness taken away by the crisis of war. The Class of '59, with the other classes, were found feasting with their fathers at the first annual Father- Daughter Dinner Dance held in May. After savoring a scrumptious dinner prepared in the cafeteria, they proceed- ed to the gym to spend the evening bunny-hopping and waltzing with their dads. Many of them were wide-eyed when their fathers proved that they could beat Arthur Murray any time. As these big moments and less im- portant occurrences ushered the Class of '59 into their Iunior year, they were ready to take their place as the real upperclassmen of the school.

As Iuniors, the present Seniors ap- plied themselves zealously to their studies, but had much fun in planning and presenting two big events which highlighted the year. Their acting was 'isensationaln in their Christmas play, l'Star Song on December 20. In aiming for perfection, the Iuniors practiced indefatigably for long hours after school: however, their efforts were rewarded and rewarding. for the play was truly successful.

SENIOR SONGSTERS Kathleen Maher, Teresa McAvinney, Margot Brooks, and Marguerite Bogaski gather about the piano as Geraldine Benzing and Maryann Patti tickle the ivories. In the Seniors' third year at St. Agnes, some people laughed. Some were even daring enough to try them, and the Seniors were of course, no exception. Soon everybody was an absolute nobody if she wasn't wearing a chemise-the very latest in vogue in 1957-58. Sacks first appeared at St. Agnes at the Drama Festival that March. Those who wore them were in as bright a spot- light as the actors and actresses on stage and made almost as big a hit. In the evening a scrumptious dinner was served to the hungry thespians who came from all the diocesan high schools. Although it was quite a trick serving while in a sack. our present Seniors were efficient hos- tesses. Other fashions straight from the Twenties reoccured during 1958, too. From head, under a bowl type hat, to toe. pointed toes that is, everyone had a Charleston look. Ar every school event, the Class of '59 showed they tended toward whatever Paris had to offer. wide ting dtQigQmtQg IULIA MCGRATI-I IO Anthony St. St, Augustine I'm 'sow-rv! . . . cherry pink and apple-blossom white complex- ion . . .

Their happiest memories are the days which contained fun, togetherness, and that certain satisfaction resulting from work well done. They are comprised of the pleasure the Class of '59 has always joined to their schoolwork, the humorous incidents which often unexpectedly pop- ped up, family jokes , and all the other shared experiences. Sad occurrences -f usually small and yet significant - are also remembered by the Seniors. Dark clouds were prevalent on days when disappointments were met with, or perhaps when misunderstandings occurred between friends. These disheart- ening instances were of marked import- ance in the lives of the Seniors, for like the pleasant experiences, they left an imprint in their minds and hearts. Happy and sad, these years have held treasured moments that Seniors will never forget.

A tingling sensation pervades each member of the Senior class when she loyally sings the third and last verse of the school song, which traditionally may be sung only by Seniors. When we must bid farewell to our loved school holds special significance for the graduating class as is evidenced by the warm grati- tude which may be discerned in their voices.

We are as great as our noblest thought, as true as our deepest desire. With grateful hearts. we have reminisced over the past year, for we owe each of these cherished memories. each new thought, to our parents who have sacrificed to send us to Saint Agnes, and to our teachers who have given everything that we might grow in ideas and ideals. Tomorrow we shall be where today's thoughts lead. ln appreciation for all that has been given to us, we truly hope that our thoughts grow and ex- pand each day. so that with fullness of heart and mind. each work will be the best we can perform, each word, the best spoken - making another's thoughts a little brighter and more enlightened as we meet him on the way to the goal to which we aspire. 119 BOTH THE EARLY AND LATE DISMISSALS find hoards of students piling out of the West Door to board the home-bound buses.
