A On Thursday and Friday an organized student group conducted exhibitional and community dancing, and before long a newly developed concern for the art had been developed. With the dawn of the regular basket- ball season, a system for conducting Boys, and Girls, Intra-Mural basketball was set up. With the conclusion of the Basketball Season, inter- est in recreation activities, though not expected to fall off too considerably, had to be revived. Naturally a varied course of activity is much more appealing, and with the cold weather subsiding more outdoor facilities were provided. Taking advantage of this the Depart- ment established a working agreement With the Faculty to provide for a volleyball team. The game progressed exceptionally well, giving climax to a varied healthful outdoor and indoor recreational activities program. 7, h V, e, 4 h,

The 1947 Casmitecho, a chronicle of St. Casimir High School, its students,activities and achievements of the yeat,has had a super edition. The staff labovel tite- less and cooperative carefully planned and produced all details which crystallized into attractively completed pages. Its outstanding members were: F. Kociemba, M. J. Kaminski, artist, and E. Olson tcircular insetsl. The Casmirette now in its eleventh year of publica- tion comes to us as a neat printed copy. N0t many people outside the actual staff tupper leftl know the hard work and long hours required to publish the school news. Yet, the only reward the members ask is that the students enjoy the paper. J. Popowski, the editor-in-chief has piloted the Casmirette staff through another successful year. With the departure of Sr. M. Emmanuel who has been elected Supervisor of Schools conducted by the Felician Sisters, the Casmitette is in the efficient hands of Sr. M. Benvenuta as moderator. An intensive subscription campaign was put over successfully in the early part of the year. The drive began with a rally in the auditorium with B. Batt- kowiak as mastet-of-cetemonies. Among the variety of numbers presented, a few are portrayed by the pic- tures in the lower left. After several musical renditions, the Barber Shop Quartette held the assembly in high spirit with their vocal renditions. I Widuta and T. Btodzinski besides waltzing interpreted the Russian Ballet. M. A. Kumor and A. Wojcik, J. DuBorgel and L. Zapinski joined in with fanciful styles of melody. With H. Klebanowski as his charge and the Casmitette as his part, E. Gapa dramatically recited a poem of his original composition. Indeed, the response in ads and subscriptions was gratifying. The School publications have served as an im- portant factor for promoting student activities as well as recording successfully the life of St. Casimir High School. . 1- ! t; t
