Power politics and national and religious rivalries came to a halt for fourteen hours when a Pope visited the United States for the first time in history. The following is an excerpt from one of Pope Paul VPs messages to the world. Ours has been a mission of peace. Nothing else was intended. There was no other mo- tive to this trip of ours. We have been pilgrims of peace. We wanted to bring to the world, represented and ideally united in that solemn assembly, the appeal to that peace heralded by the angels above the poor cradle of the Incarnate Word; we wanted to give our encouragement to work and to negotiations for peace, and the assurance that today as always the Church is close to the artisans of peace, reinforcing their efforts with its authority, with its support and with its blessing. 4 Bishop Paul Leibold Assumes Duties of Evansville Diocese On April 6, 1966, the Apostolic Delegate, Archbishop Egidio Vagnozzi, announced the appointment of Auxiliary Bishop Paul F. Leibold as Ordinary of the Evansville diocese. Prior to this appointment, he served as Apostolic Administrator of the Evansville diocese upon the retirement of Bishop Henry J. Grimmelsman on October 25, 1965. Bishop Leibold was born in Dayton, Ohio, and was or- dained in 1940. He spent two years at the Catholic Univer- sity studying law. After six years of work in the chancery office in Cincinnati, Bishop Leibold was sent to Rome to acquire his doctorate in canon law at the Angelicum. While there he served as assistant pastor of St. Suzanne’s, the American church in Rome. On his return home, he was appointed Chancellor of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, a post he held for ten years. He also served as Vicar General of the archdiocese and pastor of St. Louis parish, a downtown parish in Cin- cinnati. While serving as Auxiliary Bishop of Cincinnati and Auxiliary Bishop of the Evansville diocese, he was also chairman of the diocesan building commission, the dio- cesan school board and the diocesan liturgical commission of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. 5 Priests Contribute Best As an integral part of the parish, Saint Ferdinand High School plays an important part in the lives-of many people. Father Firmus Dick took over the duties of pastor of Saint Ferdinand Parish two years ago. Saint Ferdinand High School represents an integral part of the parish by serving as the educational center for its young citizens. Father Dick takes an active interest in the well-being of Saint Ferdinand High School while taking care of his parish. As superintendent of Saint Ferdinand High School, Father Bernard Verkamp presents Christian standards and morals so necessary for a good school. Besides acting as superintendent, Father Verkamp teaches religion and coun- sels the students. He has gained the respect of every stu- dent. Interests to S.F.H.S. St. Ferdinand High Welcomes New Principal Sister Mary Carmen, O.S.B., has joined the ranks of S.F.H.S. once again. After leaving us for three years, during which time she taught business subjects at Mater Dei in Evansville, she has returned to fill the position of principal. Taking an active interest in every department and every student, Sister Mary Carmen is making every effort to help us obtain the very best education possible. A part of her day is devoted to teaching a class of seniors Typing II. She feels right at home in a typing class since she taught such business subjects as typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping at S.F.H.S. before leaving us in 1962. Molding her daily schedule around the needs of S.F.H.S. and the CRUSADERS, Sister’s schedule includes such varied tasks as signing absentee slips, making judg- ments in regard to disciplinary problems, counseling, and making out transcripts to send us to college, but she ac- complishes them all with a smile. In addition to working directly with the students, Sister Mary Carmen also devotes a great deal of time to planning faculty meetings and facing the challenges of cur- riculum and school policy which are essential to a growing school. Sister Mary Carmen has done a great job in keeping our school outstanding in the Christian standards and the ideals that we are here to receive, and at the same time, in planning our essential academic studies so that we are not lacking in any quality represented by a Catholic high school diploma. Each student, whether freshman, sopho- more, junior, or senior, admires and appreciates Sister’s work, and wishes to say, “Welcome back, Sister.” fKTtO Academics Subsequent to the shaping of everyone’s life is the search for knowledge which is attained by many at S.F.H.S. The life of a CRUSADER consists of many exciting encounters throughout a day. As he walks down the hall, the sights and sounds of other nations are recog- nized as students partake in the study of foreign languages. Eerie aromas float from the chemistry lab as future sci- entists are experimenting into the unknown. A symphony of the rhythm of the typewriters and the clicking of the adding machines fill the cafeteria as business leaders of tomorrow trek on in their search for knowledge. Hardly a day passes that a CRUSADER does not stop by the library. Every reference book, biography, and grand novel holds within its covers the key to the ad- venture and knowledge which every CRUSADER is seeking. Father Kuper explains the different forms of administering the sacrament of baptism to the sophomore boys. Diane Weyer and Mary Ann Schilling relax by the flag pole taking advantage of the time between con- ferences. Father Blaise Hettich speaks to the junior and senior boys dur- ing a retreat con- ference held in the St. Meinrad retreat chapel. 10 The junior and senior boys enjoy a delicious dinner in St. Mein- rad's dining room. Religion Is the Basis of Life’s True Meaning With religion as the guiding rule for everyone’s life, students are given the chance to grow intellectual- ly and spiritually at S.F.H.S. Father Raymond Kuper along with Father Bernard Verkamp serve as religion instructors at our high school. Both try to give the students the best spiritual guidance and instructions. Because meditation and reflection are essential at times in everyone's life, retreats are held at S.F.H.S. The underclassmen spend their day of recollection on the school campus while the upperclassmen journey to St. Meinrad. Each group attends Mass, listens to lec- tures, and devotes the day to private reading and pray- er. Communion is distributed to the girls at S.F.H.S. by Father David Kissel. Between conferences the girls take advantage of the S.F.H.S. campus. 1 1 The general music class studies the historical periods from Greek music to modern jazz. This also includes the study of the lives of great composers and their works. Students listen to records, study composers’ styles, and perform various kinds of choral works. Singing is an integral part of the class. This year’s class made a special study of the development of mu- sical instruments. Art appreciation students became acquainted with over two hundred artists and their works. The elements of art, line, color, shape, and form, are taught and include actual work with various mediums, such as, charcoal, water color, collage, and other crafts. This year, S.F.H.S. art students spent six weeks working with ceramics. This venture was made possi- ble by the addition of a kiln in the art department. Students in general music class are pictured with the instruments they themselves made as a class assign- ment after an intensive study of the development of musical instruments. Art and Music Encourage of Beauty Appreciation Mary Mundy looks on as Janice Hedinger puts the fin- ishing touches to her first water color painting. David Meyer, assisted by Sister Mary Eve, removes his statue from the mold while Janice Hedinger, Mary Jo Hulsman, Marie Meyer, and Mary Mundy glaze their statues in preparation for firing in the kiln. 12 Languages Become Vital Part of Curriculum With the increasing interest in and the need for foreign languages in college, the CRUSADERS are tak- ing every advantage of our foreign language department. For the first time, Spanish II is being taught by Sister Mary James. Latin I and II are being taught by a newcomer” toS.F.H.S. this year. Mr. William King has taken over the duties of our Latin teacher. Almost every class is represented in his Latin courses. In the German department, Sister M. Damian is using tape recordings, records, and other new equipment in- volved in the new methods of teaching foreign lan- guages. In German class, John Keller, Luella Wilmes, Tom Heilers, and Sister M. Damian enjoy conversations in German. During Spanish II class, Sister Mary James looks on as Carol Verkamp writes Spanish sentences on the board. Teaching Latin II, Mr. William King explains to his class the conjugation of the Latin verbs. English Is Given Special Emphasis at S.F.H.S. Upon entering the English classes at SFHS, the freshmen become acquainted with the various types of literature. During the sophomore year there is an in- tensified course in English grammar along with the study of literature. Juniors specialize in American lit- erature while the seniors concentrate on English and world literature. In all four years a special emphasis is placed on the ability to compose and develop all the different types of literature. With the aid of films, records, tapes, and prac- tice in public speaking, the students are becoming bet- ter prepared to face the future with a greater knowledge and appreciation of their English language. In the senior World Lit class. Sister Mary Dominic and James Weyer answer John Lubbers' question on the great epic, Beowulf. In Sister Mary Boniface's sophomore English class, Sam Schaeffer analyzes his diagram to the class. 14 Sister Mary Eve and members of her freshman English class distribute a new assortment of books from the Tab Book Club. The English I students are Margie Weyer, Debbie Werne, Paul Greenwell, and Judy Steltenpohl. Sister Mary Gervase and her junior English students listen to Edgar Allan Poe’s The Pit and the Pendulum. 15 Math Department Meets the Challenge of the The complexity of our modern world continually impresses upon the minds of young people the growing necessity of studying the sciences. As an integral part of science, math constitutes the foundation by which problems concerning anything from space travel to road building and housing construction can be solved. Math is the foundation, and students are the builders. Students attending Saint Ferdinand High School have ample opportunity to acquire this knowledge. General math, Algebra I and II, geometry, trigonom- etry, and analytic geometry are offered to all students who are interested. For practical needs in everyday life, Saint Ferdinand High School, has added business math to its curriculum. Mr. Wahl conducts a discussion in business math class which involves problems of everyday life in the modern world. In analytic geometry class, Mr. Wahl explains the pro- cess of plotting points on a circle. Analytic geometry, which is taken the second semester, is a carry-over from trigonometry. 16 Under the supervision of Sister Mary Carl, James Johannemann, Marvin Klueh, Eddie Becher, and David Nord learn to use the slide rule. Geometry students in Mr. Klein’s class analyze the geometric figure drawn on the board by applying the many formulas they have learned. 17 Social Studies Make Students Aware of At S.F.H.S. the social studies include U.S. His- tory, world history, world geography and government. If we are to understand our national life today we must first understand our origins and our growing years. Through social studies the students are helped to under- stand how and why the present came to be. They meet the daring men and women who were the pillars of our American heritage and see the historical perspective of our country's role in the world today. It is the aim of a good social studies program to discover ideas and principles which can be used in solv- ing our own problems, to perform with wisdom and courage the responsibilities of democratic citizenship, and to ensure that our own contributions to the Ameri- can way of life are worthy of our heritage. In short, the student is prepared to face the future with faith and confidence in the security of our American liberties. Mr. Ted Denning supervises a short study period during government class. While studying the unit on the unification of Italy, Mark Bieker points out to the fresh- man world history class specific locations on the map while Mr. Meuser looks on. Their Responsibilities As American Citizens InU.S. History class, Sister Mary Gervase is explaining the change in administrations of the major political parties between the years 1881 and 1897 due to the problems of tariff, civil service reform, and other economic and social prob- lems of that era. Mr. Richard Bieker joined the faculty at the beginning of second semester. Besides teaching world geography, Mr. Bieker also teaches senior government. Science Department Utilizes New Equipment Weird sights meet the eye as one glances into the science labs. Strange smells penetrate into the halls. These and many other things tell one that science is an integral part of the curriculum at S.F.H.S. Students desiring a survey course of science choose to take either general science or physical science. All students take biology in their sophomore year. Juniors and seniors who have a good background in math and have had adequate preparation choose to take chemistry and physics. During the past two years the physical science lab and the biology lab have acquired much equipment which the students put to good use in the many experi- ments they perform. Marilyn Ebert, Mary Ann Schilling, Cathy Dilger, and Vicki Vaal are investigating the location of the nerve endings in the tongue associated with the different fla- vors such as sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. ram 20 Dan Bettag, Jane Reckelhoff, David Fleck, Mary Elaine Klem, and Joe Haake are testing protoplasm found in different food substances to determine whether they con- tain sugars, starches, proteins, or fat. Aline Fleck, Mary Helen Schnieders, Daniel Klem, John Kemper, Frank Denning, and Richard Muth are weighing containers for a specific gravity experiment during physics lab. Sister Mary Francesca is the instructor. During a titration experiment to determine the normality of so- dium hydroxide, Nick Dilger, Wayne Schaefer, Rebecca Vaal, Eddie Becher, and Jane Schnied- ers are preparing an acid of known normality in chemistry lab period. 21 Business Classes Prepare Students for Future Keeping in step with the world of today, the new- est and best machines are used in the SFHS Business De- partment which is constantly surging forward, giving the students experience for their future endeavors. The St. Ferdinand High School Business Depart- ment, for the second year in succession, won the first place trophy in the Archdiocesan Business Education Association’s annual contest for high school business 4 students. The contest was held at Bishop Chartrand High School in Indianapolis, with thirteen schools of Indiana participating. Mrs. Robert Heidorn dictates to the Shorthand I class which is composed of junior and senior girls. Fleig, Patty Reckelhoff, Rose Mary Hedinger, June Oser, and Elaine Goepferich. Contest participants are: Wanda Schum, Judy Gudorf, Jane Schnieders, Karen Ruxer, Jeanne Fritz, Margie With the use of the new overhead projector, Sister Mary Aquin explains the use of the combination journal to her bookkeeping class. 22 Patty Hoffman checks the receipts and other records as secretary of St. Ferdinand High School. A familiar face to all the stu- dents, Mr. Linus Wendholt, our janitor, keeps our school neat and spotless. These People Keep Things Running Smoothly Preparing the daily lunch for 300 students, Mrs. Gervase Berg slices ham for sandwiches while Mrs. Urban Lueken and Mrs. Hubert Berg prepare the lettuce and mayonnaise. 23 A ► f 4 % v 5,.% V,VA VS s� f jp f gL sbf { s is v if % i } a «■•« 'V f J%4U « •‘Aft sA ,,' A $£ v , ' r? 7w vt Students A school is only a building until the students give it life. S.F.H.S. thrives on the life of 328 CRUSADERS. The CRUSADER, a typical teenager of today, possess a unique personality, special talents, and capabilities that contribute to the excellence of his school. A CRUSADER is something special. As the students leave their homes each morning and approach the doors of S.F.H.S., a transformation takes place. The walk through those doors transforms them to CRUSADERS—one team working together to share in all of life's gifts. They are something special— they are CRUSADERS. In this sharing a CRUSADER is able to help himself. In this- sharing a CRUSADER gives of himself to others. He learns to accept other human beings. He learns to work both at school, at home, and in the rest of the world. He is something special—he is a CRUSADER. 25 Seniors Eagerly Anticipate the Future As the 1965-66 school term at S.F.H.S. opened, 92 seniors set out on the final lap of their journey through high school. They had accomplished many things in the three preceding years and are now prepar- ing themselves for the life they must face in the future. To this end they are pursuing such courses as Re- ligion, bookkeeping, Shorthand II, Typing II, Spanish, German, Trig and Analytic Geometry, business math, government, world literature, English literature, and journalism. The senior year offers many challenges. The re- sponsibility of the newspaper and yearbook, together, with the leadership the other classes expect of them, afford the seniors many opportunities to lead the stu- dent body as a whole in the right direction. This re- sponsibility offers the students greater opportunity as Crusaders to cope with the problems they will face as adults. Their responsibilities, together with their sen- iority, are represented by the class ring which is a symbol of the loyalty which is expected of each one as he reaches the final stage of his high school career.

As juniors, these students have accepted all the work and study as well as the responsibilities of the upperclassmen. Their sweaters and jackets reflect this position in school life. As the school year progresses, they are becom- ing more and more conscious of their responsibilities in cooperating with the whole school. By working with the Student Council activities and organizing school projects, they help give the students at St. Ferdinand High School a real CRUSADER spirit, which will permeate their own lives and all those with whom they come in contact. Studies pursued during the junior year are. Religion, English III, foreign languages, advanced algebra, chemistry, Typing I, Shorthand I, United States History, World Geography, physical science, band, chorus, and art.

Having acquired experience in organizing class proj- ects, pep sessions, and participating in Student Council activities, they are becoming more efficient and mature. Genuine goodness, willingness to work and cooperate, and a desire for real achievement de- scribe our sophomore class. They have gotten into full swing and are looking forward to more responsibility in the future years as upperclassmen. To this end they are pursuing such studies as religion, biology, geome- try, world history, gym, Latin, German, Spanish, and English II. They are no longer the giddy freshmen of yester- year but are seriously learning how to become the leaders of S. F. H. S. in the years to come---real CRU- SADERS in their school, church, homes, communities, and finally in the world. 52 in School Activities John Englert Marvin Pund President Vice-president Gregg Gehlhausen Bob Burger Secretary Treasurer Eugene Luebbehusen, a perfect gentleman, is the victim of foul play of two bullies, Bob Burger and Mike Seidl, in the Sophomore assembly.

They have experienced the uncertainty of a totally new'and different atmosphere in both the aca- demic and social world of high school life. Throughout the year our freshmen have truly be- come CRUSADERS undertaking such educational courses as Religion, English I, foreign languages, algebra, general math, science, health, world history, and physical education. Scholastically the freshmen have proved them- selves to be good students by having the highest repre- sentation on the honor roll as early as the second grad- ing period. Our freshmen have also accomplished great feats in sports and other extracurricular activities. After this eventful year as freshmen, they will take on an even greater roll as CRUSADERS of S.F.H.S. in the years to come as sophomores, juniors, and sen- iors.

Activities With the attempt to move forward scholastically, there is the need for varied activities. It is through the activities at S.F.H.S. that the CRUSADERS have a chance to show their abilities. The Student Council represents the government of the students—the tool through which the students chal- lenge the regular school day in the hope of adding their own ideas. The LANCE and CRUSADER represent the voice of the students—the tools through which CRUSADERS reflect their ideas and memories. The different clubs give the students a chance to mingle with other schools, representing the friendliness of the CRUSADERS. Every activity is part of the students. Their ac- tivities are formed from their ideas, promoted by their sense of responsibility, and upheld by their sense of loyalty, for these students are CRUSADERS. Student Council Develops Student Leadership The Student Council of S.F.H.S. is an organiza- tion designed to teach the functions and structure of democratic government, to promote student-faculty cooperation, and to provide means for students to parti- cipate in projects which are beneficial to everyone. The Student Council endeavors to improve school spirit by assisting each student to feel a part of the school in as many activities as possible. Leadership Week, Courtesy Week, Freshmen Orientation Day, and the preparation and presentation of school assemblies are a few of the worthwhile projects that this year's Student Council has sponsored. Under the guidance of Sister Mary Aquin, the Student Council faculty adviser, council representatives worked diligently for the betterment of the school. The council members brought the ideas and opinions of their fellow students to the attention of the council and in- formed their classmates of all the council's actions.

The Crusader Stores Memories of Happy Days There is some work that will not be seen until it is finished. Such is all the work of the CRUSADER staff. For many evenings the school is the home of these students. They spend time in the typing room writing and rewriting copy blocks and headlines. Room G3 seems to be the storehouse for the staff. In the cor- ners are grey files loaded with reference books, dic- tionaries, pictures, and records of the yearbook. There is the small green file loaded to the brim with dummy books, rubber stamps, erasers, and mat forms--the tools of the trade. Using these tools, members of the CRUSADER staff work together to put out a fall edition of the year- book. Although their work will not be seen and appre- ciated by anyone for many months, every member of the staff works to publish the best CRUSADER yet. Typists Bettye Stenftenagel, June Oser, Linda Bettag, Karen Ruxer, and Peggy Oser await their next assign- ment. Journalists Inform Students Through the LANCE Published monthly by the journalism class, the LANCE informs the CRUSADERS of coming events, presents news, and promotes high morals and ideals. In bringing forth the truth in its editorials, fea- tures, and news, the LANCE symbolizes the courage and spirit of all true CRUSADERS. In its make-up, content, and correct form, the LANCE has received several honors from Quill and Scroll and the Catholic School Press Association. Working endlessly, the LANCE staff strives to make each issue better than the last, thereby learning principles of good journalism. In addition, the LANCE in years to come will serve to furnish the history of S.F.H.S., showing the advancement and progress of the CRUSADERS. As news correspondents Ruthann Mattingly, Sharon Haake, Sue Steltenpohl, and Margaret Haake inform the public of happenings at S.F.H.S. Judy Gudorf, Diane Ebert, Aline Fleck, John Wilmes, John Kemper, and Dan Klem work on the make-up. The Business Department of the LANCE looks through style books. Members of the department are Jeanne Fritz, advertising manager; Pat Schuler, business manager; Elmer Brames, photographer; Jack Hagedorn and Patty Becher, co-editors; Judy Becher, circulation manager; John Denu, photographer. Mary Ann Schipp, Marcella Pauckner, Bill Wissel, Kaye Leinenbach, and Frank Denning proofread articles in preparation for printing. Library Club Helps Promote Branch Library With increased membership, the S.F.H.S. Library Club also increased its activities and projects. In the fall the club hosted the Dixie Bibliophiles meeting. This meeting was held at the ball park a’nd included a lunch and a tour of the AIC and St. Benedict College. The club also attended the HSLA state con- ference at Indiana University. To help finance its projects, the members held a book fair and worked at the concession stand. The club's greatest undertaking was the promotion of the Ferdinand Branch Library. Members helped after school and on Saturdays to get ready for the Grand Open ing at which the club served coffee and cookies. They presented the new librarian, Janet Barth, with a label- making machine. Janet was the first president of the S.F.H.S. Library Club. Margaret Haake, president of the Library Club, pre- sents a label-making machine to Janet Barth, the branch librarian. Sr. Mary Boniface, O.S.B., accepts a potted plant from the Library Club vice-president, Marilyn Ker- steins, for the many extra hours she gave toward the Branch Library. One of the projects of the Library Club is the annual book sale which gives the students an opportunity to select books for their home libraries. Available selec- tions include the various kinds of literature which are of interest to students. Adults also take the oppor- tunity to select books of in- terest to them. Debate is an outgrowth of discussion - a next step in the attempt to solve problems, which develops clear thinking and good public speaking. A debater should be able to take either the nega- tive or the affirmative side because one need not nec- essarily believe in a proposition to defend it, but must know both sides of any issue so well that he can make out an argument on either side. Open-mindedness, which is acquired by reading widely and wisely, is es- sential in debating a question. This is St. Ferdinand High School's first attempt at organized debating, and the members of the debate club, sponsored by Sister Mary Carl, have gained much personal benefit from participating in debates on vari- ous issues, such as evolution, parochial schools, and the national debate question of the year: The federal government should adopt a program of compulsory ar- bitration in management disputes in the basic industries. In this debate John Lubbers and Chris Erhart, the nega- tive team of SFHS, downed their Washington Catholic affirmative opponents, 177-175. Ferdinand's affirma- tive team Linda Goepferich and Francis Gudorf came out behind Washington's negative team, 194-182. Kenny Kraus and Linda Goepferich plan debate on edu- cation topic with Chris Erhart and John Lubbers, their opponents. Duane Verkamp is the student moderator. S.F.H.S. Accepts the Challenges of Debating Members of the newly-formed debate club are shown with their sponsor and adviser, Sister Mary Carl. Chris Erhart, Linda Goepferich, John Lubbers, and Francis Gudorf pose for a picture upon their return from participating in the national debate question with Washington Catholic High. 73 Dramatists Present Prize Winner, OUR TOWN, As George and Emily walk hand in hand to the altar during a touching wedding cere- mony, they dismiss the previous thoughts of hesitation. With restored confidence, they think only of that happiness which the future holds for them. JohnDenu, narrator, brings unity between the audience and the dra- matists. 74 Through open windows, Emily helps George with his algebra, but she is more interested in the moonlight. The night is accented by the singing of the choir. by Thornton Wilder Thornton Wilder has described OUR TOWN as an attempt to find a value above all price for the smallest events in our daily life. It reveals a loving concern for the simple, everyday matters, and, yet, the smallest events in daily life are concerned with a special spot on the map, OUR TOWN, which grows into an awareness of the entire universe. The play depicts the lives of George Gibbs and Emily Webb, who live in a New Hampshire village. The action begins in 1901 during the childhood of Emily and George between whom there is a childhood love affair that culminates in their marriage which has its share of abundant happiness and poignant sorrow which make for the solemnity and impressiveness of real life situations. OUR TOWN has a profound, strange significance brimming over with compassion. As Mrs. Gibbs and Mrs. Webb shell peas, they dream of a trip to Paris. The back-stage crew rejoices after the successful completion of the play, OUR TOWN.

It is the day which brings sadness and joy, fear and anticipa- tion. For many it is the end of their education while for others it is only a brief step to the future. Graduation is the last time a class will be together. It is the last time these CRUSADERS will be one body as they have been for the last four years. For everyone it is a day that will always be remembered. On behalf of the graduating class, Patty Reckelhoff gave the student address. After finally receiving their diplomas, sadness, anticipation, and joy can be seen on the faces of the graduates. The graduates listen to the talk given by the guest speaker, Reverend Terence Gerken, O.S.B. With the graduation exercises over, the graduates offer final congratulations to their fellow classmates. Sports Sports has found an important place for itself in S.F.H.S. The enthusiasm with which the fans back their teams and the stern, constant fighting of the teams add up to a winning year both in figures and in memories for the CRUSADERS. Organized sports include track, baseball, cross- country, and basketball. These sports, under the super- vision of Mr. James Wahl and Mr. Lawrence Klein, keep the boys in top physical condition while enabling them to work as a team with their fellow CRUSADERS. Under the supervision of Mrs. Robert Heidorn, the girls play baseball, tennis, and many other games in GAA. Fans contribute enthusiasm and encouragement. The cheering of the fans let the team know that their fellow CRUSADERS are backing them.

These pages put together our ad section. Ads symbolize the faith and enthusiasm the public has for the CRUSADERS. By taking space in our year- book, the public shows that they are backing us in every way. These ads not only show this response to the CRU- SADERS, but also gives the businesses a chance for fur- thering their advertising program. The CRUSADERS began their drive for ads last summer. They piled into cars and visited local businesses. They were received courteously and were welcomed by all. To show that we appreciate this help with our yearbook, we wish to say, “Patronize Our Advertisers!” Ads Miss Patty Hoffman, secretary at St. Ferdinand High School, makes a deposit for the school.

Photocraft Studio Camera Store Wright's Jewelry Thanks and Goodbye! In reaching page 128 of this book, we have covered in a short time the outcome of nine months of happenings at S.F.H.S. We have gained many memories from this last year of 1965-1966. For seniors it was a last en- counter; for the others there is more to come. For the CRUSADER staff of 1966, the work is finished. From August to June we have struggled through pictures and copy blocks, through layouts and deadlines. We have worked together with pencil and paper to give you this 1966 CRUSADER. In a sense we have only memories now. But we have worked together to share these memories with you. Through the 1966 CRUSADER we hope to recall the many pleasant things, together with the hard hours of work and study which make up a successful school year and to relive it once more. To all those who had any part in its making, we say, “THANKS AND GOODBYE!” 128 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ v'. ' VC.. W •'-V
