THE ROCKET THE ROCKET ST. ALPHONSUS CROCKD HIGH SCHOOL Niiws AND L1'1'i-tmio' ORG.-xx Subscription, 50 Cents Editorial Office, Grand Boulevard and Cook Avenue SEALED Copiosa apud Eum redemptio - in Him is plentiful redemption, the motto of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer graces the pages of the coinmencement issue of The Rocleelg with it is that of the School Sisters of Notre Dame. Yirtus et Scientia - virtue and sciencef' As we mark the pages with these- seals, we wish to give a lasting tribute to the Redemptorist Fathers for their spiritual guidance, and a grateful tribute to our teachers tor their untiring efforts and cheerful companionship. How happy would we be if we could seal our lives, as we have the commencement issue, with works emblematic ot our Most Holy Redeemer and His Blessed Mother. under whose patronage we have spent these four years. COMMENCEMENT Graduation morn will soon dawn for the class of '36, a real commence- ment for the hopes and ambitions of thirty-four enthusiastic girls. Although the rosy-hued sky will be somewhat overshadowed by the gray clouds of farewell, Alma Mater bids them, her children, with bright eyes, cheerful smiles, and hearts filled with the courage born of conviction and high ideals, to march forth to their goal, ever nundful of the old quotation: Till l die To strive, to And not to that their lives may be a perpetual, seek, to find, yield, Tu Rex Gloriae, Christe. ISN'T IT THE TRUTH? A little freshie said one day, I wish I were a sophomore nowfl A sophomore answers, Soon I'll be A junior, then to me youlll bow. Then comes a junior, nose high up, 'Tm coming, step aside for nie. A senior looks around and says, 'AA freshie, I would like to be. -Marcella lflelka, '36. The High School Sodality Conven- tion will be held on July 3, 4, and 5, at the Hotel Jefferson. PHILLIPINA, THE PELOPENESIAN PEEPER If you hear any loud applause when you pass the Senior Room, it's probably because Dolores Lee has just finished her Hcurrent eventf' The girls are clapping because it's over. There's a certain senior who seems to think she can conduct singing better than Sister Bernardo. Well, anyway, she is a good imitator. Lillian Pingel was telling us, in Latin class, that Sicily was once a part of Italy but has been washed away by the sands of time. TIME WASHES ON ! The introduction that someone gave Gertrude Baum, St. Patrick's Night, has certainly gone to her head. That's all she talks about. It took four years for the senior class to find out that they had a famous singer and toe tap dancer. Marcella Kayser certainly did her stuff at our amateur program. All Lines of Beauty Culture BARBARA'S BEAUTY SHOP JUNIORS WELCOME FIVE NEWCOMERS R. N. S., 1934-In September of their junior year, the Class of '36 welcomed five newcomers into their ranks. They were Aline Anderson, who had completed the commercial course at Rock the preceding yearg Marcella Belka, julia Greco, and Mary Sullivan, from Sancta Maria in Ripa High Schoolg and Florence Fichtinger, who had attended Beau- mont High. After being duly initiated by the rest of the juniors, these five became a part of the Class of 536. KRUKENKAMP PHARMACY l'rescription Druggist UNION AND HARVEY AVE. LABORATORY INSTRUC- TOR'S LIFE SERIOUSLY ENDANGERED R. N. S., 1935-A state of inoinen- tary panic reigned in the laboratory on the afternoon of May 16, 1935, causing a short interruption in the Junior A chemistry class. During an experiment showing the reaction of sodium on water, con- ducted by Sister Mary Cecilia, S.S.X.D., chemistry instructor, the sodium which burst into flame when coming into contact with the water was precipitated with considerable force against Sister Cecilia, setting her habit aflame. A junior whose identity went un- noticed in the scramble which fol- lowed, seized a bucket of water and threw the contents on the burning clothing. The flames were extin- guished, causing little or no damage. The juniors eventually quieted down, calm was restored, and the experiment was completed without further disturbance. SOPHOMORES SING ON BACCULAUREATE SUNDAY R. N. S., 1934-Bacculaureate Sun- day, the day held in high esteem and welcomed joyfully by the seniors, was also a day eagerly anticipated by the sophomores. It was their privilege on this day to sing during the Mass. Their joy reached its highest peak when they were re- quested by the seniors to sing the ever-beloved Iniilimfizlrifzl. Wm. F .

S., 1934-For the first time in the history of the school, basket- ball tthe major sport in the schoolj, stepped into the background, as football took full swing in the cor- ridors and aisles of the sophomore room. Some of our more energetic sophomores, viz., Marcella Kayser, Hedwig Bruck, Ruth Miller, Dolores Lee, Margie O'Brien, and Margaret lluehler, not content with working themselves up into a sweat by en- gaging in one of their tame games of basketball, relieved the monotony ot a hot April noon period by tack- ling a rough and tumble game of tootball. . Equipped with the round tin can Ill which the classroom dust rags were contained, and dressed in unique uniforms, the football players came out upon the field for their Hrst Qand onlyj spring practice. After forty-live minutes of strenu- ous tackling, blocking, and punting ttogether with the carrying of a few of our punch-drunk players to the water fountain in the corridor to be revivedj, the game ended-the only results being a dented dust rag can, torn blouses, untied ties, dirty hands and faces, and a general conglom- eration of Hworn-out sophomores.
