Clledicdtion OUR years ago we came into the loving arms of our Alma Mater so that We might learn the secret of full living. Now, equipped with training in Catholic sciences and culture as well as in practical skills, we are about to graduate. We shall take our place in a world that is to be the testing ground of our learning and training. We are not afraid. Christ has been our inspiration, our model and our strength. Our lives are His. We give our whole future into His keeping. To Christ we dedicate this yearbook and pledge ourselves to serve Him by Christian living. I . . -Q W W . . -1 4:,. - .f. .g- .f .1 .L., -.

T SEEMS ' t a ver short time ago that we were Pfacticlng for the graduation Ceremonies bask U5 Y . . at good olil S E A., and now here we are already, grown up to live in the age of wonders. And speak- ' f d rg dont ou often think about what ever became of the old gang, and what happened to ingowone, y I ' n? d Ad , the girl who used to sit first row, third from the rear in senior English. I know I o. n thats why I like my job so much. You see, as editor here at the central office of the World Daily News, my desk is always full of little news items, and from them I have managed to glean a surprising amount of information on the latest comings and goings of the girls of the class of 43- And the H1051 21IT12lZ1I1g thing of all is the way all these new scientific wonders have tied in with the things they have chosen as their walks in life. For instance, I hear that Gwen Kline and Kay Mittino have opened a summer camp for high rides in atom-powered kiddie cars. Dot Kluck is model- school students, and are giving them daily the pictures for the latest Florida travel folders-you know, ing for those photographers who are taking the ones that advertise radio-active beaches with all the facilities for giving you a radium tan. And speaking of beaches, Pat Podmaka is doing very well as a lifeguard. It seems that what with the latest in life-saving equipment, all she has to do when someone yells, Help! is locate them on her little Radar Juniorn set and send a rubber robot after them. Mary Stein, Mary Therese Hendel, and Margaret Fietz have organized a trio and call themselves the Gamma Ray Girls. They are very popular with the radio audiences, taking care of all the singing commercials for that well known American Atomized Apple Sauce Company. And along with the other releases from the broadcasting studios I found some other interesting news about my former classmates. Mary Ann Grothaus and Kathleen Tines are teaching via radio a course intended to give housewives the necessary information on how to cook delicious, just-like-Mother-used-to-make meals on those new urani- um stoves, and Lois Knobbe and Mary Harlin have been unanimously chosen as the best authorities on sewing on the latest model Iridium-Plutonium-powered Singers. Fran Binder is demonstrating The Best In Hair-dos over the newly established Television Station formed by Jeanine Fox and Yvonne Baudette. This station has as its aim the sole purpose of showing the nation's housewives the tricks of the trade in trends toward the New Look, which is still flourishing. In the capacity of department heads in What to Wear and Where to Buy It we find Ann Melville and Pat Kane, respectively. Joan Kettenbach is announcing for them and describing the fashions which are modeled by Mary El Hegger, Doris Wirth- ensohn, and Joanne Neudeck. LaVerne Tamm, Pat Ginter, and Gloria Diehl, who always were fiends on chemistry, astounded the scientific world by developing a way of broadcasting these programs in technicolor, and thereby opened up the golden gate of opportunity to Rosemary Brush and Bernadette Scheman, those famous interior decorators, who now have organized a course in Color I-Iarmony in the Home i' which is being aired 7 over the station. And Nancy Banden, who always came up with something new in that particular branch of glamour, is also making good use of the new development for her program entitled Lipstick Shades and How to Make Them Suit Your Personality. In the field of medicine our Elizabethans are excelling, too. Pee Wee Murabito Jeanne Kulessa Pat Hennelly, Irene Peil, and Perl Kommer, those enterprising nurses, have established a Cancer Founda- tion Hospital, and their head Technicians are Betty Kuna and Jeannette Tuerck Jenny Jafema Rosie Fri- ' 3 gerio, and Doris Wolf have been asked to serve on the Social Services Staff, and all I can say is they'll be good ones for it. If anybody could cheer up a hospital ward, they are the ones, Pat Mullaney is in charge of all dental examinations and specifications. Page Twenty-Four 'WT'NE'7'..,. ,' I , g h, , , N: , Y -O L .

And I hear that most of the work on these books was handled by Myrle Bippen and Doris Korte, who are the mainstays of Alice Stockmann's Professional Secretarial Service. Joanne Jockenhoefer is still studying at St. Louis U., and they say she's having a hard time carrying around all those degrees. Mary Kay Jauer has just received news of her appointment to take charge of all the student courses given by the Red Cross in Nutrition and Home Nursing. P Q Vera Frankowski, Mary Partsch, Lois Frank, and Mary McCarthy have bought a tract of land in the country and are spending much of their time checking up on the latest in farm implements. Pat Horty is still chugging around in the little old Ford, but she's attached an electro-magnetic engine and stripped down its wind resistance until it'll make 250 m.p.h. And joan Schlieper is still one of her most faithful passengers. Carol Phillips has been designing purses for the past few months-ever since she adopted a new motto, A compartment for everything and ,everything where it belongs. , Jo Lamantia is still being Beth of Little Wom enf' and they tell me that by now she has died some 2,437 times. And perhaps the most futuristic of all the class of '48 is Jackie McVey. You see, she's al- readyregistered her first son in the class of 1975 at Notre Dame. Q But now it's time for me to hop into my little Cosmic Car and dash off to St. Elizabeth's. My Beta- Vision Desk Set has just informed me that the graduation ceremonies for this year are about to take place, and I can't afford to miss them.

Christian living was the Father Overman contrasted Christian with pagan ideals and made living the Catholic way very appealing. The day started with a dialogue Mass. Four conferences were held daily. The time be- tween conferences was well spent in visits to the Blessed Sacrament, spiritual reading, the recitation of the rosary and making the Way of the Cross. There was a special Holy Hour of Reparation each evening. theme of the retreat. . The retreat for the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, held from January 29 to 51, was given by Reverend Walter Kaelin, C.P. The retreat schedule was similar to that of the seniors and was concluded with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. SAtsi5ti-i That both retreats were inspiring and helpful is evidenced by the following remarks: I will never forget Father's words on the benefits of the Holy Mass, devotion to the Blessed Mother, and the Passion.

With this as their goal Sodalists determined to make the coming year a tribute to the Mother of God. To accomplish this, prayer, work, and sacrifice were stressed. A year of varied activities was given a spiritual start by a living rosary held in October. The sale of Christmas cards by both the senior and junior Sodalities, netted a total of S200 for the Finland Mission. The senior Sodalists realized 3560 from a benefit raffle given for the Indian Missions. Both Sodalities observed March as vocation month with prayer and instructive programs.

Present day problems of teen-agers were aired and discussed at the annual convention of the St. Louis Sodality Union.

Simultaneous with the debate tourna- ments, there has been, throughout the year, a series of C.I.S.L. All-Speech Meets, in which the girls participate in six different types of public speaking. They are varied in such a way as to give experience in almost any aspect of forensics. Here one may express himself through humorous or serious interpreta- tions, original oratory, non-original oratory, radio, or extemporaneous speaking. Almost every Catholic high school in the city was represented in these contests, which consisted of three divisional and one city- wide final tournament. In the opening tournament, at which St. E. A. played host, Elizabethans compiled enough points to take first place, and in the two other divisional meets, held at Notre Dame Academy of Belleville and Notre Dame of Ripa, St. E. A. was never once dethroned. Then the girls whose work in these three warranted them entry in the finals went on to total a score which was good enough to Win second place in the city in a tie with Christian Brothers College High School. Girls who participated in the final tournament were Eva 'Pohlen, Jeanne Sullivan, Joyce MajOf, Shirley Schuette, Delores Wegman, Mary Therese Hendel, Mary Alice Bundschuh, Margaret Ederle, Lois Zitzmann, and Mary Ann Cahill.

O teach a greater appreciation of music, to foster a love for the music of the Church, these are but two of the objectives of the Choral class. The group, directed by Dom Errnin Vitry, O.S.B., presented a program of religious selections from the early period of Church music at the Te Deum Forum in March. Thirty freshmen and several juniors and seniors accompanied Father Ermin to Detroit to present a tableaux for the National Catholic Music Educators' Convention on May 8. The annual spring choral program, May 26, crowned a year of hard work with a rendition of the gems of classic and religious music.

HE FIRST big project of the art class for the year was designed to arouse interest in Catholic Book Week. Rose Mary Brush and Bernadette Scheman painted a huge poster to draw attention to a display of new books in the library. Each art student designed and executed an original poster. These were judged by the lay faculty mem- bers of the school. Eleanore Hajek won first prize and received a book as a remem- brance of her achievement. Frances Becker and Ruth johman received honorable mention. Enthusiastic and ambitious members of the class brought honor upon their school and themselves when they entered various local contests. Bernadette Scheman and Rose Mary Brush received honorable mention in the Christmas Carols Contest. Bernice Nordmann, Marie Scheller, and Adrienne Bouckaert placed first and won keys in the SCHOLASTIC ART CONTEST. Patricia Mullaney, Jeanine Fox, Rose Mary Brush, and Frances Becker were second place winners and received certificates. Bernadette Scheman also received honorable mention in the CLEAN UP PGSTER CONTEST.

Members of this unit strive to bring the gay spirit of each holiday to hospitalized veterans of this area. Tray covers, menu covers, favors, nut cups, greeting cards, party caps, Christmas stockings and large wall decorations - all are the expression of generous giving and doing which characterizes Christian living. Thank you notes even from veterans of World War I are proof that the girls' efforts are appreciated. Besides the cheer-bringing element, the students acquire many useful ideas for party favors and home decorations in this supplement to their regular art Course.

EMBERS of the Footlight Club gave a delightful interpretation of Beulah King's Chintz Cottage, a three-act comedy, on April 23 and 24. Ruth Schramm, as Minty, leaves the hustle-bustle of the city to retire in the peace and quiet of the rural town of Meadowbrook with her comical maid, played by Norma Girolami one night, and Mary Va. Beutler, the next. Mary Ann Treybal, as Miss Tillingtop, Minty's aunt, is continually casting a romantic eye to ensnare Mr. Kent, enacted by Don Fogerty. Gene Sinz as a poet, Peter, has a difficult time keeping his presence a secret and is circum- stantially compelled to spend his time hiding in an old chest and a window-seat. Regardless of his predicament, he discovers that Minty is the girl he needs to act as his poetic Muse. Peter's sister, Grace, or Doris Truesdale, at times aids her brother's cause but just as many times unwittingly hampers it. Mrs. Dean, alternately Carol Brenne- mann and Betty Eschmann, has an excellent bit as the inquisitive neighborly sister of Mr. Kent. 7 With Miss Brewer as director of this production, the cast found it easy to enjoy their roles, and ably portray them.

A, With these words the l948 Queen of Hearts was introduced at the annual Coronation Ball held at the Sheraton Hotel, February 9. Miss Mullaney then made her royal entrance and approached her throne where Miss Josephine Lamantia, president of the Footlight Club, crowned the reigning sovereign of the evening. The Queen's Court consisted of seven special maids and seven Queen's maids, senior members of the Footlight Club. She was attended by two flower girls and a crown bearer. Her train, which measured five yards in length, was supported by a page. The Queen's first royal act was the bestowal of orchids upon the past Academy Alumnae Pres- idents, Mrs. Frances O'Meara, Mrs. Andrew Kaletta, Mrs. Peter Speckart, Mrs. Robert Colyer, and Miss Angela Windler. Following the bestowal of the orchids, a portrait of Mrs. David E. Brewer, organizer of the Alumnae and the only non-living president, was presented to Miss Angela Windler, chairman of the President's Council, for the Alumnae Room. The first dance of the evening was her Majestyls. choice, and the second was a waltz in honor of the special guests, the Presidents' Council.

EORGANIZED for the third successive year, the Latin Club again enkindled the interest and en- thusiasm of the junior and senior members in the classics and the lives and customs of the ancient Romans. Excelsior - Upward and Onward -was unanimously rechosen as its motto. The highlight of the year was a party in which the sophomores were initiated into the club. AH original play entitled THE ELIZABETHAN RADICALS AND CAESAR'S VICTORY was presented by the juniors. Latin songs were sung and there were refreshments and dancing for all. The officers who presided over the year's activities were: President, JOANNE JOCKENHOEFERg Vice President, PATRICIA HENNELLYg Secretary, EVELYN JANE EVERSQ Treasurer, JEANINE FOX.

HE AIM of Le Cercle Francais was to stimulate interest in the language, people, culture, and country of France. This objective was realized through the median of modern games and songs in French, talks by the members on the beauty and culture of France, with especial stress on the city of Paris. French records afforded the members of the club the opportunity to acquaint themselves with the Parisien accent, and to hear La Marseillaisen the way it should be sung. The French Club also made a field trip to the City Art Museum to study French objects of art, and afterwards enjoyed a picnic. Each club member hopes to extend and enrich her knowledge of the French language by continuing her correspondence with the French friend whom she has acquired through letters to France.

ATIENCE and skill have transformed materials and patterns of all types into gay frocks for every occasion. Blouses of fine silks and rayons, skirts and suits of soft wool and gabardines, dresses of delicate chambray and pique, and formals dominated by simplicity, are the types of projects that are the pride of the sewing students. At the annual fashion show, which was presented on the afternoon and evening of May IO, the girls proudly modeled the accomplishments of their year's work. It is such a joy, the girls say, when someone compliments their attire, to reply, And I made it myself. Page Fifty as-,.

A., perhaps the most popular is basketball with all its tense moments and surprise endings. The game offers opportunities for fun and excitement, not only to those who play, but also to those who attend the games and cheer the team on to victory. Under the direction of Miss Loretto Rapp, physical instructor at the Academy, the team participated in ten games, winning five of these. At the last game of the season, three seniors on the team-Captain Pat Podmaka 7 joan Kettenbach, and Mary Therese Hendel-were presented with gardenia corsages as farewell gifts from their team mates. Every smdent is encouraged to participate in sports, as this form of activity offers both physical development and character training.

These girls, motivated by out- standing school spirit, have lent their whole-hearted and enthusiastic vocal support at every game throughout the year. . In front of the grandstand can always be found those spirited, agile exponents of pep and energy - the cheerleaders.

Alumnae Association IDELITY and loyalty to their Alma Mater characterize the members of the St. E. A. Alumnae. Fond and lasting friendships formed at school bind the active association and make it the outstanding organization that it is. The Annual Fall Homecoming was celebrated on Saturday, October 25. The special feature of the program was the honoring of three Alumnae as the first Golden Jubilarians of the school. Sister M. Aquina, the first Elizabethan to com- plete her high school course, was the only graduate in 1896, while Mrs. Dora Ramming and Mrs. Emma Linhoff received diplomas in 1897. Also a member of the honored class was Mrs. Agnes Neumeyer who died several years ago. Sr. M. Aquina was the moderator of the Alumnae Asso- ciation when it was organized in 1907, and again from 1944 to 1946. Each of the golden jubilarians received flowers as a spe- MIS- Emma Linhoff cial tribute. The distinguished class was seated at a table of honor during the banquet that followed and was serenaded with songs that were popular at the time of their high school days. At this event Miss Pearl Kommer, president of the senior class, introduced the seniors to the offi- cers and members of the Alumnae. Election took place and Miss Rosemary Kochner was unanimously reelected president. Holding the office of first vice-president is Mrs. Henry J. Free, second vice-president, Miss Mary F. Liberty, re- cording secretary, Miss Elsie Martin, corresponding secretary, Miss Dolores Schoener, assistant corre- sponding secretary, Miss Pade Straube, treasurer, Mrs. Emil Koob, historian, Miss Mary Ann Seliga. A living rosary was formed by the members of the St. Louis circle of the International Federation of Catholic Alumnae during ceremonies held Saturday, Octo- I gppqg ber 4, in the Academy chapel. On February 4, under the auspices of the Alumnae, a book review on Oar Lady of Fatima, was presented by Rev. Thomas Bowdern, SJ. The children of the Alumnae members enjoyed fun and frolic in an egg hunt on Easter Monday. Of special interest to the younger Alumnae members was a dance given at the De Soto Hotel on April 16. An inexhaustible spirit of charity has caused the Alumnae to be generous when improvements are needed for the Academy. This year they contributed S5400 which will be used to improve the lighting system in the library and other rooms in the school. The Alumnae express their appreciation to the community which taught them by sending CARE packages to the Finland mission of the Sisters of the Precious Blood each month. l Mrs. Dora Ramming Page Fifty-Six Q 43. rm, 51. -M .. . . ,. . .. 4 v, rv' 14.-v ' I ' f' .f ' 'Q ' , sfsh- , ' . - , 4-, -. -f '- -w ' - .

VOSS LOSE cooperation between parents and teachers has, as in the past, characterized this year's P.-T.A. activities. Among the projects sponsored by the organization were the purchase of a new piano for the music department and a 1948 Plymouth sedan for the school. A Christmas party with Santa Claus and gifts for all the students and their younger sisters and brothers was held in keeping with a long established custom. A card and bunco party, securing patrons and ads for the yearbook drive, and assuming responsibility for the prom rounded out the year's activities. These events were effected under the leadership of the newly elected officers, Mr. Harry E. Voss, president, Mr. Carl A. Brenneman, vice-president, Mrs. Herman J. Beetz, secretary, and Mr. P. J. Clancy, treasurer. The class of '48 is mindful of the unselfish interest the P.-T.A. has demonstrated, and the students of St. E. A. unanimously join in a solemn thanks to God for the gracious blessing of loving parents and dutiful teachers who point the way to Christian living.
