Before you turn further pages of another Book of Memories of our high school days, we, the Staff, should like to intro duce you to the theme of this book. As you examined the Faculty page, you noted that the headline is: THEY HAVE TAUGHT US, That is our theme, The many good times we have had living, working, playing together, will be cherished by us always, the memories that are not so pleasant will eventually fade from our minds or take on less important proportions. Those older and wiser than wc tell us that that is what happens. We recall little kindnesses, thoughtfulnesses, helpfulnesses, and understandings more readily, and cherish them more intimately than we carry little heartaches and animositles. We have been taught many, many things by the Fathers and the Sisters. Thru the pages of this, our yearbook, we re- mind you and ourselves of the thin s we have been taught, Worthwhile things, we hope and thery hope, that will remain after the exhilaration of the baskeiall tournament, the thrill of the prom, and the happiness o a goal achieved, what- ever that goal may be, have all passed away. Maybe we didn't learn all the lessons wellg being human, we have failed many times. But our teachers have always understood. All that they have asked of us is that we try. Tucked away in the recesses of our better selves the lessons will eventually come to fruition. Come what may, we are bound to become better men and women because our teachers have loved us, cherished us, trusted us, and because THEY HAVE TAUGHT US. May we be grateful! rbi? T ,f2:Z ll' 4, , E.

Ronald There is in school, no group, perhaps, that works with less thodght of material recognition, than does the staff of the yearbook. To the staff falls the drudgery of pre- paring tile copy, editing it, planning the pictures, meet- ing deadlines-all of which sounds effortless and common- place inithe telling, but which is anything but effortless and comtnonplace in the actual accomplishment. For a staff to work devotedly, there must be no count of cost either in time or effort. No thought may be given to what any individual will get out of it. All must be sublimated to the general cause of the school in a spirit of servicle and loyalty. Thatgthe staff pictured here did work out of loyalty to a cause is known best to the yearbook advisor. That is why s e takes pause to congratulate the staff and voice he appreciation for their tireless and selfless work. Not eve yone will be satisfied with the yearbook, there will be me who will feel that they were slightedg there will be thers who will feel that some students were given too much attention. And then there will be those who willi like the yearbook, and who will appreciate what the. staff did for them. While it would be presumptuous to expect all of you to like eyerything in the 1957 Ben Hi San, we hope you will find' something you will lila'-tHa-tT-will be a cherished Book of Memories.

Delegates Last November, some of our students were invitedto attend the Catholic Students Mission Crusade Convention at Rosecrans High, Zanesville, Ohio. Altho St, Benedict, located in the Steubenville diocese, is not active in the C.S.M,C. since it places emphasis on the Sodality of Mary, we were happy to accept Father Ku1p's invitation to attend. The day of the convention began with a dialogue Mass rn which all participated. Panel discussions, informal talks, movies, and coke breaks made up the day's agend. All enjoyed this chance of meeting other delegates and relating interesting facts about his school. A delicious luncheon was served which the delegates ate with hearty zest. Our students were fortunate to personally meet Father Charles Erb, of Divine Word Fathers. He gave an inspiring talk C.5.M.C. Delegates about the work and purpose of the C.S.M.C. Reports about the C.S,M,C. Convention were given by several of the delegates at the next Sodality meeting.

Ron, who was chosen to attend Ogration mi at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio, is known for his cooperation, courtesy, congeniality, and willingness to work, Ron sums up his sojourn at Xavier with these words: Those seven days of living, working, and playing with young men from different parts of the Mid-West united to make a wcck that was a challenging and invaluable experience in my attempt to learn more about mutual rights and responsibilities in our American Democracy. Ron is a conscientious member of the Knights of the Altar. His favorite sport is basket- ball. Come graduation and September he expects to head for Notre Dame, Doubtless, the public relations activity which brings out students in touch with the largest number of citizens, most of them business men, is the soli- citing of Ads for the class play programs.

For the seniors this is our last year with you, Father, and we regret having to go, but we will remember always the fun and good times we had with you-when you drove the school bus For the first time, our friendly disagreements, traveling to and from basketball games, and your helpful advice.

This is his second year with us and we appreciate his fine work. MELVIN GERST An appreciative note is directed to Melvin Gerst for his outstanding work with the Reserves this year. Through his two years of service he has molded our Reserves so that they ought to be good varsity players in the future, The Irish will lose, at graduation this year, these senior girls: Barbara Bast, timerp Jocelyne Jamail, scorer, Mary Ann Tidball, statistician. Mary Ann, for three years, has worked digilently preparing the statistics of the basketball games. While her job is often taken for granted, we recognize that her good work is the result of untiring effort. This is Barbara's second year as timer. Her fob, though it also has been taken for granted, carries with it many responsibilities that must be borne under stress and strain. She has proven herself worthy of the position. Jocelyne iust this year took over Frances Hohman's work as scorer for the Irish. Since all of these girls are seniors, they leave vacancies to be filled by lower-classmen . JOE JAMIEL - PAUL BRILL PICTURED RIGHT, OUR CO-MANAGERS: Joe Jamiel and Paul Brill. Joe has been with the Irish for three years and has done a splendid job, This was Paul's first year and he, too, has worked hard. After the basketball games, when the team has completed its job, these boys have to see that- all the equipment is put away, Tired as they may be, they never utter a word of complaint, Thanks, boys, for everything! THEY HAVE TAUGHT US that we can be glorious in failure and miserable in success. While Bob outjumps his pponem, Ron, Ted and Pete nxiously wait for the ball, J. Mike aims high for another basket as the boys race to aid him, ACTIUN Mike is right on his toes trying to regain the ball from the opponents.

CHEERLEADERS Kay Gm' Hard work and sacrifice is the routine of our praise- worthy cheerleaders. What would we do without them? Their school spirit and vitality is an essential element in the basketball picture here at St. Ben 's. Congratulations girlsl Leaving us after three long years of unselfish work are Mary Ann Jamail and Kay Gerst. Few people realize the responsibilities of a cheerleader. ln these three years of service, these girls have carried out these responsibilities by, giving up much of their spare time improving their cheers, adding new ones, and planning pep meetings. One of their biggest iobs is to keep up the team's spirits when they are low, and to lead the Irish fans in cheering their team to victory. Also leaving us this year is Barbara Herbert who has given us a year of fine co-operation and cheerfulness with the rest of the girls. These girls have considered cheering a privilege and we hope that our future cheerleaders will follow in their footsteps. Pat Saliba, a iunior, holds the unique record of being a cheerleader since her freshman year. See you next year, Pat. A special treat for everyone was our new little cheer- leader, Theresa Sullivan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Sullivan. She cheered at all the home games and took good care of the little Irish mascot. KT Mary Ann Jamail Barham Ilerberl Pat Saliba EN 9... Theresa Sullivan PEP UP TIME Bob .
