GARDNFR, UD. Bishop of New Jersey Ever since his early ministry, when he was chaplain and master in Sacred Studies at St. Paul's School, in the diocese of Long Island, Bishop Gardner has been intimately associated with the spiritual and educational needs of young people. As an active trustee of St. Bernard's School, and zealous Bishop of New Jersey, we have been recipients of his devotedness. With sentiments of sincere gratitude, we, The Sixth Form, dedicate this issue of The Crusader, to Bishop Gardner, a Leader in Christian Education of Youth. l2l The Crusader Managing Ecliior Edward H.

CLAYTON, Renm- Nl THE REVFREND ROBERT L CLAYTON Rector of Sr Bermrd Q 'School 11946 I4 I illlqe QKectur's- glllfesszrge St. Bernard was the author of many moving letters. No example could illustrate this more clearly than a few words taken from his correspondence with Godfrey. This young nobleman had begun his training for the monastic life but after a time was drawn back to life in the world. In a letter of great eloquence, St. Bernard puts the matter squarely before God- frey. Perhaps you blush to return, where you have only now fallen away. Blush for flight and not for turning to renew the combat. There are some in every generation today who are responding more and more deeply to the voice of God. Both young and old are finding in fresh new ways that the voice of God alone is the voice that brings light and life. Yet it is perhaps even more true than in St. Bernard's day that the temp- tations of the world to put its demands before God's call are more subtle, more numerous and more appealing. For the person who tries to serve God with his life, there are many questions and difficulties. And we do fall away again and again. Nor is it easy to return. lt takes courage to ask God to help us overcome our deepseated selfish desires. It is just here that St. Bernard's words cut into our modern lives. Perhaps you blush to return, where you have only now fallen away. It does make us shamed to discover how easily we let our selfishness make traitors of us before God. We are not unaware that we easily become disloyal to beauty, truth, and goodness as we know them. But St. Bernard not only understood our predicament, he presents us with a fine turn of phrase-so human in its understanding and yet so godly in its unmistakable warning. Blush for flight, and not for turning to renew the combat. Even as St. Bernard tried with all his might to help Godfrey fulfill his vocation, so we of the faculty and staff hope that as you look back in the future to your days at School, you will remember that we too would have each and every one of you become men in the finest sense of the word. We would have you blush for flight for the conflict is not yet ended. May God bless you always.

J. - John Stein and Jay Thomas Perkins. At the same time, Michael Crombie returned from England to reioin his class. Walter Carr returned to complete his sixth form, in September 1950.

As the myriad of lights flickered on through the buildings and on the streets, various interesting nocturnal activities began. The friendly red tints indi- cated the sinking of the sun and beautified the huge, bright signs emblazoned with neon and incandescent lights. The most impressive, however, was the marquee over a thea- tre entrance, built by a Mr. Howard G. Oliver. It was the opening night for Mr. Oliver's presentation of a play and crowds of people surged around the entrance, in lines that extended along the block. People had been waiting since noon to see the production which starred Mr. Lee James Terhune. Mr. Harold Lunn had flown in from Gillstown a few weeks before to design the costumes for this play. He made a comment about the stormy weather he had encountered when flying over St. John's Mountain. At present, however, Mr. Lunn and Mr. Terhune were busily chatting backstage about acquaintances in Gillstown. Mr. Terhune had just married one of the leading actresses that had come from there, and Mr. Lunn was quite popular with several. Just then, Mr. Michael Crombie scurried by after making last minute checks of the equipment through which he was going to have the play recorded and sent over the air by way of his network of broadcasting stations. Mr. Crombie was in a rush to get back to his box where his wife, Connie, and three children were waiting. Close to the entrance of the theatre was parked a deluxe custom-built conver- tible owned by Mr. Eugene Edward Lezgus, who was in the profitable business of designing and building these cars. Mr. Lezgus, a dealer in foreign cars, carried on custom building as a sideline, with his main office situated not far from the theatre. Lezgus-built cars were owned by the two big financiers, angels of the show, Mr. Ronald Kerr and Mr. Arthur Ward, who were busily engaging themselves in the plush pine- panelled main office, estimating the profits. They were interrupted by loud pounding on the door, which they opened by remote control. A loud, traditional So Hello! was the exchange of greetings as Mr. John Stein and the Rev. Jay Thomas Perkins walked in. Mr. Stein, the traveling salesman, pulled out his little black bag and led with his fast sales talk: So you want to buy a painted necktie, maybe? So maybe you like bright colors, no? Mr. Kerr and Mr. Ward were persuaded to buy one. After the cigars were passed around, these four members of the Class of 1951 of St. Bernard's talked about old and recent times. Father Perkins, dressed solemnly in black, told of his ministry. Mr. Stein, when asked about the particular aspect of his iob that he liked the best, replied, Money, and more money . U71 Just that afternoon, there had been a conference of the leading members of the medical profession in the elite hotel across the street from the thea- tre. Dr. Edward Dunning, the chairman, and an ace surgeon, had made the headlines by performing a delicate operation on the nerves of a charity patient. He had sum- marized his findings before this select group which consisted of Doctors Ernest Walter Carr, H. Terry Correll, Charles Kull, Beverly L. Walter, and encouraged them to apply his methods in their particular branch of medicines. Manuals published by Doctors Carr and Kull had made certain diseases, which occur in horses, extinct. Besides being ace veterinarians, Doctors Carr and Kull owned racing stables, and their horses brought home the money. Doctor Walter specialized in the canine breeds and was enriched by his world-famous winners. The world-renowned surgeon, Doctor H. Terry Correll, was the darling of the Park Avenue elite. His hypnotic surgery had killed all pain. As the meeting was breaking up, a cute young titian nurse entered the room and made the announcment: Doctors Carr, Correll, Dunning, Kull and Walter, report to emergency surgery . At once, they made a quick trip to the veterinary hospital, a few blocks from the hotel. After robing themselves with starched white uniforms, they entered the operating room. A brief consultation illuminated the fact that the patient - a red-boned coonhound , had been suffering from conniptions and the only possible cure would be a delicate operation on the nerves. Since this was an opportunity for Doctor Dunning to practice his technique, it was decided that he would perform the operation. Dr. Walter and Dr. Kull ran for the bottle of laughing gas as Dr. Carr and Dr. Correll pulled out the racks of instruments from the sterilizing cabinet. Dr. Dunning stood by, flexing his rubber gloves. Presently, the patient was under, and the first incision made. The silence was broken by commands of: Scalpel . . . Muscular Retractor . . . Forceps . . . Knife . . . Fork . . . Spoon . . .! As this was taking place, the famous actor, Mr. Lee Benny Terhune, sat tensely in the hallway, because his pet was undergoing a serious operation. Then, Dr. Walter and Dr. Kull appeared and reassured him that his pet would soon be on the road to recovery. Mr. Terhune was greatly relieved. It had grown late, so the five doctors and the actor hurried to the theatre. With curtain time only five minutes away, all the actors and actresses harl gotten tense. The theatre was packed and the audience was in great sus- pense. Mr. Crombie and family, Mr. Lezgus, Mr. Stein, Doctors Carr, Correll, Kull, Dunning, Walter, and Father Perkins were sitting forward on the edge of their respec. tive seats, in high expectation of things to come. Backstage, Messrs. Kerr, Ward and Oliver watched the second hand of the clock, while Mr. Lunn was entranced by the f llfil beauty of his costume creations. Mr. Oliver shouted orders to the stage hands to raise the curtain, with a flourish from the orchestra, the play began. As the scenes passed, the emotions of the aud- ience rose and fell. Toward the middle of the play, the consuming love scenes cap- tivated the audience completely. The play came to a close, followed by twelve curtain calls. After the play was over, the entire class of 1951 of St. Bernard's held a reunion party at Mr.Arthur Ward's fashionable Fifth Avenue penthouse. This gentleman had become Chairman of the Board for Electronics Universal, and an angel for many a dramatic production. He had grown fabulously rich. His wife was the former opera diva, Princess Hortense. She was now the hostess of this class reunion and captivated each and every one by her charm, her beauty and her decor. Arthur reminded his comrades of '51, of the old days by running his fingers over the con- cert grand piano that stood in the living room. They learned that Mr. Ward, between business engagements, gave concerts before distinguished audiences throughout the world. Mr. Kerr was quite at home in the luxurious surroundings. He, too, had ac- quired a fortune through his world-wide plastic and synthetic rubber industries. Father Perkins, home on furlough from his African Equatorial Mission, expatiated on the importance of that continent for the future of Christian civilization. In- stinctively, every man present in that penthouse wrote generous cheques for the building of Christian schools, churches, hospitals and clinics under the direction of the Rev. Jay Thomas Perkins. Dinner was served and the festivities continued until the light blue of the dawn changed into tints of red, whereupon, the fabulous and romantic class of 1951 dispersed. ll'9l lla-st mill emit Testament We, the Class of 1951, of St. Berlnard's School, being in sound mind, and in view of circumstances beyond our control, do hereby publish this our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills by us heretofore made--A We give and bequeath as follows: 1.

Student Council, St. Bernard's School, Gladstone, N. J. T451 Varsity Football On September 30, 1950, the Saints began the season against a heavier Oratory team, on the home field. Oliver passed to Pote for the first tally of the season. An in- terception by Oliver and touchdowns by both Oliver and Pote accounted for the home squad's scoring. Reo, Oratory wingback, made the visitors' only score of the day. Both teams failed to convert in all tries. Final score: S.B.S. 24, Oratory 6. Monclair Academy was the visiting team for a heartbreaker. Oliver and Pote were out- standing in both passing and receiving, scoring three touchdowns for the Bernies. After a half, the score was 19-6. The second half proved disastrous for the home squad, with a spinner play scoring three more for the visitors. Final score: S.B.S. 19, Monclair Academy 25. Hun School proved too much for the Big Red of St. Bernard's as the former rolled up a 33 to 12 victory at Princeton. The Saints showed brilliant spirit as the combination of Oliver to Pote again worked precisely to score the Saints' lone tallies. St. Bernard's next took on the very strong Delbarton team. In spite ofa hard battle by a lighter and less experienced team, Delbarton's Jasavinsky and Coultas had control of the whole afternoon. Final score: S.B.S. O, Delbarton 32. On a swampy Solebury field, the Nichollsmen were held scoreless for the first three periods against the first and second period scores at New Hope, Pa. Despite a fourth period touchdown by Colton and a powerful last minute drive, time ran out on the visitors. Final Score: S.B.S. 6, Solebury 12. The Saints next encountered a very experienced Morristown School squad, which proved too tough for our line. Colton scored the lone tally for the Big Red, who in spite of it lost the contest by a score of 18 to 6. The second and last win of the season was at the expense of the visiting Friends Academy, on November 18, 1950. Billy Pote had a field day by scoring all five of the Saints' tallies against only two by the visitors. The home squad completed two conver- sions to the visitors' one, making the final score: S.B.S. 32, Friends Academy 13. The last game of the year, the Alumni vs. the Varsity, proved disastrous for the Saints. The Alumni, with eight college players, were in sparkling condition. D'Apolito pushed three tallies across, while Kaus scored one. The Saints were in scoring position more than once but were held back on all tries. The Alumni squad consisted of Peter Basilion, Joseph Meyer, John Wade, Raymond Hyer, Anthony D'Apolito, Theodore Tingle, Oscar Kaus, Jr., Bernhard Bartholomaus, Edwin Nicholls, Roy Trundt, Lewis Garmize, John Turner, Ronald Wagner and Alan Whatley.

J., where, in spite of Oliver's 21 points and Dunning's 13, the Stevens' team swamped the Big Red. Final score: S.B.S. 49, Stevens 116. The first home game of the season saw the Saints lose to Delbarton, even though Oliver scored a very good 20 points. Final score: S.B.S. 25, Delbarton 64. The sixth game of the season proved again too much for the Saints as they lost to a smooth College High team from Montclair. Final score: S.B.S. 28, College High 47. The Wardlaw team were the visitors in the seventh game of the season, with Friedrichs and Schneider doing the scoring honors: Final score: S.B.S. 32, Wardlaw 12. Eastern Academy of Paterson, N. J., defeated their hosts. Friedrichs tallied 8 points for top honors. Final score: S.B.S. 24, Eastern 47. The Saints met a second time with the experienced Delbarton team, at Delbarton, and again were defeated. Final score: S.B.S. 28, Delbarton 64. The return game with College High was played at Upper Montclair and the Saints al- most toppled their hosts. Final score: S.B.S. 36, College High 53. The Oratory team visited the Saints and defeated them again, despite early romps by by S.B.S. Final score: S.B.S. 22, Oratory 47. The Hun School team was very much surprised when they came to Gladstone and were almost defeated as the Saints played with everything they had. Final score: S.B.S. 31, Hun 32. Saint Bernard's, after a long wait, edged out a perennial rival, Morristown School, as Dunning put in a last winning tally. Final score: S.B.S. 49, Morristown 48.

It is the merry wind-up of twelve days of celebration, the grand finale of the Yuletide festivities when all the joys of the Christmas season, big and little, appear on the stage, to make their bow before the curtain falls for another year. For this reason, St. Bernard's School introduced this custom in the year 1938. The School celebration is turned over to the King of Misrule, abetted by the Executioner and the Jester.
