Crusader St. Ferdinand High School Ferdinand9 Indiana Volume XII As St. Ferdinand High School opens its doors for the fourteenth consecutive year, it presents to 346 students many new challenges and opportunities. The students’ ex- periences and knowledge from the past enable them to encounter these perplexing mile- stones. 2 «i Activities........eo-83 Seniors....................20-37 Juniors....................38-45 Qjyorts� •••••• 84-97 Sophomores..............46-53 Freshmen Ads 98-127 Grateful acknowledgement is made to Sister Mary,Victor, Mr. Ferman Yearby, 'Jjie Ferdinand News, the J asper lie raid,$nd all those who helpe£ £)� al year- book possible f S’ 18-59 nriifnnn St. Ferdinand High A true Christian is constantly being a Crusader for Christ. He is always eager to serve Christ through helping others and devoting his services for the benefit of others. A Crusader is one who is always willing to give. Father Ralph Schipp, the first graduate from St. Ferdinand High School to choose the priesthood for his vocation as a Crusader for Christ, was or- dained a secular priest for the diocese of Evansville. Father Schipp is seen as he prepares for his first Mass. The first student-organized oblate group, con- sisting of Luella Wilmes, Judy Becher, Maureen Klueh, Rosalie Hagedorn, Linda Goepferich, Barbara Berger, Ruthann Mattingly, Maryelizabeth Mattingly, and headed by Fathers Lambert and Jerome, O. S. B., prepare themselves to help others by bettering themselves. Cleaning test tubes in the laboratory, just one of the many services of candy stripers at Stork Memorial Hospital in Huntingburg, are Ruthann Mattingly, Mary Jo Eckerle, Linda Bettag, Sharon Haake, and Sue Steltenpohl. They also perform many other duties to make the hospital a more pleasant place for the patients. As a CSMC project, SFHS students launched a Service Day to raise funds for the Guatemala mission. Father Bernard Verkamp, Eugene Tempel, and Bernard Schaeffer prepare to announce to the students over the intercom system the initiation and purpose of the project. With full cooperation, suc- cess was inevitable. In summation, all Crusaders for Christ are carrying out His command, If you do this for these, the least of my brethren, you do it for mel 4 School Crusaders Crusade for Christ of a School’s Curriculum “No one saves us but ourselves; No one can and no one may, We ourselves must walk the path, Teachers merely show the way.” Nancy Wilson Ross “The Return of Lady Brace” Academic life is the major ingredient of school. The academic program is a path in the direction of knowl- edge, and the teachers are guides along the way. It is up to the individual to choose the direction and speed of travel. The result of each person’s efforts is manifest in the goal he attains, whether it be making the honor roll or being elected to the Presidency. 7 Because of an increase of priestly vocations, Bishop Henry J. Grimmelsman was able to release the three Benedictine fathers from their parish duties and in their place appoint three secular priests from the Evansville diocese. Transferred from St. Joseph's Parish in Bramble, Father Firmus Dick was appointed to the position of pastor of St. Ferdinand Parish and superinten- dent of St. Ferdinand High School. Bishop Appoints Three Priests for Ferdinand 8 Fathers Verkamp and Kuper, assistants at St. Ferdinand Parish and religion in- structors at the high school, meet to discuss references available for Bible study. unjlrr: Devoted Principal Transfers to Guatemala Life is a continuous circle of making contacts with others--some remembered, some forgotten. An out- standing character is never forgotten. St. Ferdinand High School will long remember an outstanding Crusader, Sister Mary Victor, O. S. B. Serving as principal of SFHS for six years, Sister Mary Victor has also taught Religion, Latin, and Spanish classes. Sister is well qualified for her work by holding a Master's Degree in both Spanish and Secondary Admin- istration. To challenge the students to develop their Christian traits, to progress toward truth itself, and to make use of these Christian characteristics by carrying their banners of Catholic life always, Sister Mary Victor has initiated many programs and projects. Sister has developed the school government, the Student Council, encouraged parent-teacher relation- ship by sponsoring meetings for them, and updated the curriculum. As a result of these efforts, SFHS was awarded in February, 1965, a document certifying that the school had met the standards prescribed by the State Board of Education for an advanced rating of com- mission. On behalf of the entire student body, the CRUSADER staff expresses its appreciation for her years of service and wishes her God's blessings on her future work. Sister Mary Victor holds the certificate of continuous commission received from the State Department of Education. Wearing the newly-designed habit, Sister Mary Victor shows to her Spanish class the location of the mission in Coban Diocese, Guatemala. 9 English Constitutes Basis of Education Sister Mary Dominic watches intently as several senior literature students copy, erase, and redraw the map of Odysseus' travels home after the Trojan War.

Absorbed in manipulating their compasses, geometry students are preparing their daily assignment. Rebecca Vaal explains to Mr. Klein, geometry teacher, the procedure she used to prove that arc AD=DB. 12 Following the instructions of Sister Francesca, the chemistry students master the basic steps in using the slide rule for easier calculation. 13 After being tested on the anatomy of the frog, Gerald Muller, Donald Meyer, Jane Schum, and Barbara Schuch benefit from their mistakes as Sister Mary Eric explains their errors.

By applying the knowledge gained in school, they will be better able to make use of opportunities afforded them.

Besides developing leadership, they test the students’ sense of responsibility and bring forth hidden capabilities of individuals. Taking place during the school day, at night, and on weekends, these activities provide entertainment, not only for the students themselves, but for many other mem- bers of the community. Club projects, musicals, and traditional annual events consume many busy and happy hours. Student Organizations Back Worthy Projects These energetic underclassmen wash Father Kuper's car to earn money for Student Service Day. CSMC secretary, Margie Fleig, posts the results of the Guatemala project. Students readily donate their four hours' wages to project leaders, Bernard Schaeffer and Elaine Oser, to bring Student Service Day to a favorable close. Student Council members sponsored numerous projects including their annual Christmas program, Courtesy Week, campus clean-up, and the sale of sweatshirts. Council members monitored the hails be- fore school in the morning and during lunchtime. They also initiated a pre-election convention for the Council representatives of the coming year. Leading the Council in these projects were Gene Tempel, president; Steve Boehman, vice-president; Mary Sue Hauser, secretary; Jack Hagedorn, treasurer; and Sister Mary Aquin, faculty adviser. Project Guatemala, organized by the CSMC and Student Council with the cooperation of the class presi- dents, resulted in a total of $633 collected for the missions. The students worked at odd jobs in the sur- rounding towns, offering both their work and the wages of four hours toward the success of the project. The next day a Mass was offered for the missions. The school officers of the CSMC ’were Bernard Schaeffer, president; John Wilmes, vice-president; Margie Fleig, secretary; and Sam Schaeffer, treasurer. Father Bernard Verkamp was moderator. Sue Steltenpohl delivers her campaign speech for coun- cilman-at-large at the pre-election convention. Student leaders try in vain to im- prove dress standards by wearing ties. Suanne Knust, Eugene Heilers, Norbert Schreiner, and Jack Hagedorn portray the Nativity scene at the annual Christmas assembly presented by the Student Council. The arrival of the Dubois-Pike County Bookmobile, in its first year of existence, is a periodic event at St. Ferdinand High. The Library Club distributed cards for the Bookmobile to every student and faculty member in the school. Two New Facilities Develop Communications Initiated this year by Mr. Robert Maxey, the faculty sponsor, the Audio-Visual Club gives its members a chance to learn how to operate the various projectors and recorders and to put their skill to use when needed in die classroom. Officers for the club are Gerald Schafer, president; Doris Dilger, vice-president; Juanita Kuebler, secretary; and Nick Dilger, treasurer. 64 SFHS Library Club Becomes Active in State The Library Club has made itself known in many school activities in its second year of existence. The New Harmony meeting for Dixie-Bibliophiles was attended in October. The state conference at Pur- due found St. Ferdinand High School with the largest representation. Two members won the offices of State reporter and pin chairman. The office of reporter brought the responsibility of publishing the HARBINGER, the state newspaper. Aiding their treasury were a book auction, movies, concession stands, and a book fair for the public. The club held an assembly to promote Catholic Book Week and designed a display of their club which was sent to Philadelphia for view at the Catholic Li- brary Association's annual meeting. Twenty-six members plus ten guests of the club from Kentucky attended the spring Dixie Bibliophiles’ meeting at which four girls ran for office. Five repre- sentatives attended the IU library workshop during the summer. The club sponsor was Sister Mary Boniface. Officers of the club pictured below are Juanita Kuebler, president; Luella Wilmes, vice-president; Margaret Haake, secretary; and Doris Dilger, treasurer. Candidates for state office at the Purdue Con- vention were Luella Wilmes and Sue Stelten- pohl. Elaine Oser holds the mike for Marvin Pund as he attempts to answer a question at the quiz during Catholic Book Week. 65 Proofreading copy for THE LANCE is the job of Janet Werne, Albert Jasper, and Alber- tha Schnell. Pasting down the layout is skillfully done by Suanne Knust, Glenda Seng, Juanita Kuebler, Phyllis Meyer, Co-editors Carol Stenftenagel and Gene Tempel, and Stanley Schaefer. Writing headlines is assigned to Tom Ruhe, Tony Woebkenberg, David Schum, George Becher, and Carol Hedinger. 66 Lance Issued monthly by the journalism students under the direction of Sister Mary Dominic, the LANCE has a student subscription of 100 per cent. The newspaper staff holds membership in the Catholic School Press As- sociation, Indiana High School Press Association, and Quill and Scroll. Co-editor Carol Stenftenagel attended a two-week journalism workshop at the University of Detroit last summer. She learned many important facts that con- tribute to the publishing of a school newspaper. The journalism class attended Journalism Day at Evansville College. They also toured the FERDINAND NEWS office to witness the printing process. One of the major accomplishments of the staff was the setting up of a St. Ferdinand High School Style Book. Final proofreading at the printers is an impor- tant last-minute job completed by Elaine Oser and Marilyn Uebelhor. Journalists Publish Monthly Student Newspaper Folding the paper for distribution are Norma Oeding, Rosalee Gudorf, Louise Bolte, Maryelizabeth Mattingly, Barbara Berger, and Gary Hildenbrand. CRUSADER Staff Binds Memories of the Year Staff members are busy compiling the CRUSADER. Responsible for various sections are Glenda Seng, editor; Juanita Kuebler and Jeanette Kemper, activities; Allen Hasenour, Val Fleig, and Albertha Schnell, album section; Elaine Oser and Barbara Berger, ads; Rosalee Gudorf, album section; and Marilyn Uebelhor, faculty and introduction. Typists and photographer Maryelizabeth Mattingly (standing) help complete the CRUSADER. At typewriters are Gail Thompson, Nancy Persohn, Carol Stenftenagel, and Suanne Knust. 68 in a Permanent Record Not only does the CRUSADER staff bind the mem- orable events of the year into a permanent record, but in doing so it also tries to follow the principles of good journalism. Editor Glenda Seng attended a workshop at the University of Detroit last summer to better acquaint the staff with current ideas on yearbook publications. The entire staff attended Journalism Day at Evansville Col- lege last fall. The staff has membership in the Catho- lic School Press Association and the Indiana High School Press Association. The yearbook, edited under the direction of Sister Carlita and Sister Mary Gervase, is considered an extra- curricular activity; but it is bound up so closely with every phase of school life that one can receive a liberal education in executing his duties as a staff member. Looking over some of their finished products are photographers Tony Woebkenberg, Maryeliza- beth Mattingly, and Stanley Schaefer. Members of the subscription staff for the '65 CRUSADER are Pat Tret- ter, Rita Ebert, Rebecca Knies, Mildred Durcholz, Bernard Schaeffer, Virginia Helming, Doris Dilger, Business Manager George Becher, Rosemary Drach, Doris Bosler, Shirley Wagner, Ruth Auffart, and Bernard Hedinger. 69 Seniors Reveal Talent in “Finders Creepers Mr. Quigley assists Granny after discovering he'd caught the wrong person.

The boys are terrified when they learn of Uncle Bob’s new occupation as a mortician. Complications set in when they discover a guest in the house by the name of Jason Quigley who ran out of gas. His funeral is to be the coming Monday. The ironic thing about it is that Mr. Quigley is very much alive and breathing. The actions of the supposedly dead corpse cause a stir of excitement and fear, but at last the would-be mur- derer is revealed. Finding an unwanted intruder in his bed, Hercules leaps into the arms of his friend Wilbur. Everyone's eyes are riveted to the heap on the floor as Mr. Quigley pulls back the sheet. Daphne, the maid, sits near- by pointing a revolver at Dr. Brown, the real villain. Music Department Introduces 44Springtime99 at BAND PERSONNEL--BACK ROW: Directress Sister Mary Eve, D. Gaesser, E.

While the court and a capacity crowd look on, Jeanette tosses the ball to Tom to begin the Ferdinand vs. Rock- port game. 77 Faculty and upperclassmen enjoy a highlight of the evening, a deli- cious banquet served with that old-fashioned touch. Couples dance to the popular music of the Washing- ton Catholic High School Band. Juniors, Seniors Dine Under the Magnolias Students draw numbers from a black top hat to seat them- selves at the dinner table. Selected by a secret ballot of the junior class, Elaine Oser and Val Fleig reign as king and queen of the annual Junior-Senior-Faculty Banquet. Friends gather around the wishing well, part of the colonial setting, to exchange auto- graphs. Retreats Are Held at SFHS and St. Meinrad The freshmen and sophomores make their retreat under the direction of Father James Lex. .7 The underclassmen spend their retreat on the SFHS campus. As part of their program, the girls pray the rosary before the Lady of Fatima statue. 80 As guests of St. Meinrad, the upperclassmen attend Mass and lectures and are given the opportunity for private reading and visits to the chapel. The following students were honored for high scholastic achievement on Honors Night: Barbara Berger, Short- hand; Suanne Knust, Home Economics, LANCE; Elaine Oser, Bookkeeping, LANCE; Juanita Kuebler, CRUSAD- ER; Gene Tempel, Service, LANCE; Carol Stenftenagel, 1st Scholastic Honors, LANCE; Val John Fleig, Religion, Science, Social Studies, CRUSADER; Marilyn Uebelhor, 2nd Scholastic Honors, Typing, LANCE; Eugene Heilers, English; Glenda Seng, Religion, Citizenship, Mathe- matics, CRUSADER; and Nancy Becher, Band.

Father William Lautner, pastor of St. Simon's, Washington, gives the commencement address. Graduates Move From the Past to the Future His Excellency Henry J. Grimmelsman presents diplomas to the seventy-six graduating seniors. 82 On behalf of the seniors, Glenda Seng delivers the student address. The twelfth graduating class of St. Ferdinand High School ended their high school career with a baccalaur- eate Mass and breakfast on the Friday preceding Sunday commencement exercises. In his commencement address, Father Lautner urged the graduates to continue their education. He stressed that a truly educated person is one who has a sense of the past, is alert to the present, and endeavors to build for the future. Genuine scholarship, he said, is the work of a lifetime. Therefore, with these comments in mind, it is up to each individual to continue his education so that he may make his life an expression of love for his fellow- man which in turn is the measure of his love for God. Contemplating the symbol of four years’ work, the graduates realize the significance of a high school education. 83 Sports Promote School Spirit, Build Strong Minds and Bodies Participating in a strenuous activity not only builds the body and relieves tension but encourages school spirit. Every season brings with it a different sport in which to take part. Organized sports at St. Ferdinand High School include track, baseball, cross country, and basketball. Each game or meet brings with it excitement and high hopes. But win or lose, each participant has the personal satisfaction of going “all out” for his school. Fans play an important role in every sport. In order to encourage the players, these motivated people provide the noise for the game.

Cross Country Team Runs First Full Season The cross country race is a two-mile running con- test. The first runner to finish earns one point, the second earns two, etc. Only the first five from each team receive points; therefore, the winning team ob- tains the lowest score. Listed in the record below is the first SFHS runner to finish in each meet and his rank in the competition. David Nord ran the best time for the season, 11 minutes 43 seconds, in the PVC meet. ST.

Beginning in the fall with softball, continuing through the winter with basketball and volleyball, and intro- ducing two new activities, bowling and square dancing, it ended the school year by participating in the playday at Mount Vernon. Besides enjoying the various sports, the club went caroling for the elderly townspeople at Christmas. The GAA was accepted as a state organization under the supervision of Mrs. Robert Heidorn. The of- ficers were Maryelizabeth Mattingly, president; Nancy Becher, vice-president; Ruthann Mattingly, secretary; and Maureen Klueh, treasurer. GAA leader, Mrs. Robert Heidorn, demonstrates to freshmen, Margie Verkamp and Phyllis Jas- per, techniques of bowling. Catcher Judy Gudorf returns the pitch as Diane Oeding awaits an- other try. Fearless seniors race to base while a sophomore attempts a futile throw. Characterize Centennial Celebrations Beards, bustles, old cars, parties, and good cheer are characteristic of a centennial. Such things were quite evident within the last several years as six com- munities, St. Meinrad, St. Henry, St. Anthony, Ferd- inand, Fulda, and Schnellville, celebrated their an- niversaries, some being one hundred years old and others more. At this time a mood of reminiscence hovers about. Reflections on past accomplishments and failures bright- en and darken the outlook for the future. Although a great portion of the time is spent in this reflective mood, an eye to the future is always open. By examining the changes that have taken place within the last one hundred years, it is impossible to guess what will happen in ail the fields of life in the next hundred years. Ferdinand Ferdinand, a small German Catholic town, was founded by Reverend Joseph Kundek in 1840. He named the town Ferdinandsstadt, in honor of Ferdinand, Emperor of Austria, of which Father was a native. The scenic town sets against the background of the Castle on the Hill, which was founded in 1867. Recently Kordes Hall and Benet Hall were added to the convent facilities. With a population of approximately 2,000, Fer- dinand boasts of a college, two high schools, and an elementary school to meet its educational needs. In its 125th year of existence, a rapidly expanding popu- lation and prosperous industry are setting the pace for future progress.

Father Meister, resident pastor at Celestine, directed the building of a church which was completed in 1862 and dedicated to St. Anthony of Padua. The parish, school, and town were organized in 1864; and on September 15, 1865, the name of the town was changed to St. Anthony. With the church and parish as a nucleus, the community has grown and prospered. The spirit of the entire community can be felt in the recent establishment of the St. Anthony Community Center, Incorporated. Schnellville On November 27, 1865, Henry Schnellfounded the little town of Schnellville. Sacred Heart Church was built in 1873. The congregation, then a part of St. Anthony's congregation, formed their own parish at Schnellville in 1875. The church serves as the center of the town and the surrounding community. St. Henry St. Henry was founded in 1862 by Father Chry- sostom Foffa, O.S.B., the first pastor. The town and parish were named in honor of Abbot Henry of Einsiedeln Abbey in Switzerland. The community was settled by people moving westward from Ferdi- nand. Twenty priests have served as pastors of the parish. ALBERT J.

Lots were sold at $25 each. Because there was no activity in the town, it did not prosper. The situation changed in the spring of 1866 when Reverend Martin Marty, O.S.B., prior of the monastery, stated that the monastery was going to be extended and that all the building materials were going to be manufactured near St. Meinrad. Due to this boom, Father Isidore started a parish in 1861. The first school was built in 1864. In 1943 St. Meinrad parish was directed by the bishop to build a school, church, and rectory. Before the conclusion of 1964, the project was completed. Terry Uebelhor, a part-time mechanic in his father's garage, checks a motor.
