High above the hum of city traffic and away from the voices of people busy with every day iviiig, two stone pillars mark the entrance to a world far removed from the one below. They usher in a Franciscan world where nature's beau- ties are constant reminders of our Little Father, St. Francis. ln all seasons our hilltop is beautiful. Septem- ber welcomes us back with its autumn colors, December brings us its white blanket and ice or skating on the pond while spring ushers in Joy at the sight o green things waking and white blos soms smiling The cherry trees in blossom, the trees in the orchard laden with snow, the weeping willow trees reflecting their splendor in the pond, the statues of the Blessed Mother, Saint loseph, and Saint Francis guarding all who linger within these boundaries, the tiny white bridge overlooking the pond, girls sitting in the swing enjoying the outdoors and hating to think of the bell which would summon them back to class these are the campus scenes Qcademy girls will remember long after the alumnae has claimed them to herself forever VL, 4 080 ' ggi!! ,Q I, L ii A , ' ': 4 ,Egg-N I i 'I ,A ,,,V 133' ,N as 14 ahah J li ws. 9 .,v,, 1 'fa ,,,, V' 1' 2, 5 ,A 4 Z W ' . 5 ,g i A I Q 4: gk Q mx ,, ,.,,. 4 ,.,,L, , ,deff ,ff ,i4,. .M-' ..f' AQ 5, I! m , . . STRIWNG TOWARD SENIORITY . . In the third year of their high school education, new doors are opened for S.F.H. scholars. RELIGION for the I uniors is no longer merely a study of the Command- ments and the Spiritual Works of Mercy. In Christian Ethics the girls learn how to apply these Commandments and Works of Mercy to themselves. Inspired by the ideals of the Hcademy, they learn of the peace and bles- sings which can be theirs in leading a good Catholic life. This year for the first time in their lives the girls explore wonders of plant and animal life in BIOLOGY. While examining the ins and outs of Mr. Frog, these lassies also gain recognition of the fact that one drop of ordinary pond water contains millions of living, moving bodies. The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is egual to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Pythagoras's theorem might have been only Greek to our third year damsels, but after a few very strenuous hours of study, they discover its true significance. Qny one wishing to know anything about triangles, circles, rectangles, or the size of S.F.P1.'s pond may secure the information by conversing with a GEOMETRY student. The language and the customs of our friends south of the border have fascinated S.F.Qi girls for the first time this year. Indeed, so popular has SPHNISH become that almost all questions are answered with a Si, Senorital Our linguists have become so apt at the language that many future trips to sunny Spain are already being planned. The newspaper profession is the main concern of the IOURNHLISM class. Correct headlines are these girls' delight, and feature stories, their specialty. They find the human interest angle in every day happenings of life on the Mount. Qmerica, her periods of war and those of prosperity these are studied by the HMERICHN HISTORY class. Here maps and historical dates are pondered over and discussed as these proficient historians of today learn of their country from the historians of yesterday. Gregg Shorthand artists of tomorrow are being forged in the Iunior SHORTHHND class of today. Future stenographers strive for a goal of 125 words a rninutee-and reach it. IUNIORS, CLOCKWISE: In the Iournalism Class, Studying Geometry, Browsing in the Library, Watching a Spanish Dance, Biology, Religion, Shorthand, Hmerican History. CENTER: Iuniors hold a class meeting. . . SEEKING S'6'l-l0lA5'Tl6' S'I!66'ES'S . . RELIGION-The essence of Catholicism is found in the heart of every student. Here it is kept glowing by the study of God and His great gifts, for Religion is the foremost subject in every SFR. girl's life. LHTIN II-The Mass can only be appreciated if it is thoroughly under- stood. The study of each prayer of the Mass in Latin gives the students a good opportunity to know the Mass. Excellent texts make the rendition of a living Latin easy, and lay the foundation for a love of the sonorous language of the Church. WORLD HISTORY-The history of the world from its beginning up to the present time is studied in the World History class. The study of the evolution of this great universe, of its countries, its rulers and its people is both interesting and educational. HLGEBRH II-The mathematically minded plunge into the difficult problems that are studied in Hlgebra ll class. This subject is the basis for the more difficult mathematics that follow. Wits are sharpened, and minds are keener having undergone the discipline of this course. SHORTHHND I-Shorthand helps the commercial student to prepare for the business world. To those who wish to enter the commercial field when they leave school, this course is essential. The skill to write speedily and correctly is acquired by constant drill, study, and practice. TYPEWRITING-Typewriting helps the pupil to combine accuracy with speed. It trains the mind as well as the fingers. Perseverance and practice lead to perfection in this study. ENGLISH-English II is an integral part of every S.F.Pl. Sophomore's curriculum. This subject helps to broaden the student's learning in speech, composition, and grammar. It embraces such interesting pro- jects as the writing of autobiographies and the reading of interesting modern Catholic books. ECONOMIC GEOGRHPHY-Enables the student to understand the intricacies of world trade the location of vitally needed materialsetheir transportation, and trade routes. It aids the student to comprehend the give and take of commercial life. Sophomores at work, from left to right and down: Ht Shorthand, In English, Ht a Class meeting, In Latin II, World History, Economic Geography, Hlgebra II, and Religion.

COOPERATIVE FRESHMEN 00NOENTl?A TE ON The Freshman Cass of '42 descended upon Saint Francis Ecademy th1rtjr-nine strong. The first rnonth was scent in rneetlng neu-.' people, rnalcing new friends and prepanng tor initiation Rites October. Hffer the interesting experi- ence, the Freshrnen were appeased by the So- dality Pla,.owe'en Party, and became once again good as new, entenng into the rea. srnrit of scnoo. life and school activities. By now religion classes were loved by all, Hlgebra wasn't too bad: it was just the name, and Latin wasn't really mystifying. 'Nlien the second HEHLTH-The study of the eye proves itself profitable to this intensely interested group. Once a week this Health Class meets to learn the fundamentals of happy and healthful living. CIVICS The study of governments is a very interesting one, especially when it is your own city government. semester arrived, the treshies had been received into ine Sodality of Our lsadyf they knew a.Q the teachers' names and rnost of the stddent body and began considering themselves veterans. When the end of Qpril rolled around, the suc- cessfpi. freshmen had won the honors in the Plnndai Bake Sale Contest for the Missions, and last but not least, they topped in the S.l7.l3l. Mothers' Giiid War Bond Raffle. Let tis now glance at the subjects which lqmfp a Freshman busy from September to lune. HOME ECONOMICS H typical scene of the Home Eco- nomics Class clad in their neat white uniforms and at work in their new white laboratory. Their motto is Keep 'em eating. HLGEBRH The indefatigable Hlgebra I class fills board after board solving intricate problems day after day. ,..f-' ancient language, which is the basis of so many A6'ADEMlC AND COMMERCIAL 6'0MPETEN6'E . . . RELIGION-The Sacraments are the center of interest ic a Ereshrnan in Religion l. Each of the seven avenues of grace is thoroughly studied and as the student becomes familiar with thern, she learns to appreciate their value in her daily life. LHTIN-Puer-i, m., boy, is a familiar phrase to a Latin student. Conjugations, declensions, and genders are all part of the fascinating study of this English words in common use today. LHTIN Conjugating Latin verbs and declining nouns, the freshman learns to be precise, accurate, and exact in all her wor . IUNIOR BUSINESS TRHINING-Writing good business letters is an art which requires some practice and this is gained in the Business Training Class. CIVICS-ln Civics, the Freshmen delve into governmental mysteries, learning the fundamentals of democratic government in preparation for life as good citizens. Judiciary, Legislature, and Executive, are words whose definitions slip glibly from their tongues. ENGLISH-Literature, Compositions, brief talks, as well as grammars sthese constitute a busy year in English l. H freshman always knows when to use lie and when to use lay ea valuable item of knowledge in any field she may choose. Her vocabulary is also broadened by periodic spelling bees. HLGEBRH-With x the unknown, find the sum of 2a plus X. lt may all be bewildering to some, but not to the Pllgebra student. This interesting subject is just the ground work for some of our future mathematicians and engineers. HOME ECONOMICS- ul smell something burning! lt's the Home Economics class at work in their cheery, bright, modern kitchen. They can stir up a number of tasty dishes in no time E full of nutrition and very good, besides. ln lune, a Faculty Tea was prepared by these modern host- esses who proved themselves efficient in the art of serving a tasty breakfast, lunch, and dinner. HEHLTH-Q very important class in the high school curriculum today'is the l-lealth Class. l never knew l had so many bones in my body, ex- claims a surprised freshman. Pl detailed study of the ear and eye is also absorbed by these eager students. Qnd not only do they learn the number of their teeth, but also the proper care of their biscuspids and incisors. IUNIOR BUSINESS TRHINING-Plll work and no play makes the freshman a dull girl. So, in her lunior Business class, she plays the capable and efficient business woman. Check writing, answer- ing letters and telephone, and meeting new clients are all in a day's routine. Everything is realistic, of course, except collecting the paycheck at the end of the week.

This can truly be said of the many Sisters who teach us here at the Qcademy, and whose patience and persever- ance are never-ending. Through the coming years we hope to keep bright and shining the knowledge and ideals they endeavored to instill in our hearts. Sister Mary Loyola, our Principal, fostered in us a love of good literature. From Sister Mary Imelda, lunior Homeroom Teacher, we learned the commercial tactics that will help us to make our mark in the world. With Sister Mary Paul as guide, religion took on new beauty and significance. French was a fascinating lan- guage, and France a land of romance when viewed through the eyes of Sister Mary Gertrude, and Sister Mary Ursula's soft voice made Spanish and Latin lilting and lyrical languages. Under the guidance of their homeroom teachers, Sister Mary Carmelita and Sister Mary Benigna, the Ninth and Tenth Grades made Red Cross utility bags to be sent to the Navy. 1. Sr. M. Imelda 2. Sr. M.

The Senior homeroom teacher, Sister Mary Liguoria, aided us when we faltered in mathematics, and science be- came a never-ending panorama of natural wonders in the classes of our smiling Sister Mary Carrnelita. Sister Mary Rosalia teaches our youngest members the fundamentals of the threefno, fourfR's. Sister Mary Hssumpta's quiet dignity and kind smile gave us an example of the qualities we should acguire to become successful business women. History was a fascinating subject when brought to life in Sister Mary Benigna's classes. Their fine teaching and thorough training have given us excellent preparation for the future awaiting us. Following the way pointed out to us, we hope to become a credit to the Plcademy where we spent such enjoyable times. Interesting, enjoyable, and profitable periods were spent in the newly-equipped Home Economics Laboratory por- trayed on this page. 7. Home Economics Class 8. Sr. M. Liguoria 9. Sr, M. Carmelita 10.

Every bit of worthwhile knowledge aids us to grow mentally and will help us to take an intelligent part in the mature world of tomorrow. Sister M. Beatrice's jolly smile and friendly manner were a never-failing ray of sunshine every day for all, in- cluding her seventh and eighth grade pupils. Sister Mary Plnne with gracious patience directed the efforts of the third graders in their tussle with learning. To Sister Mary Magnus goes our thanks for helping us to learn proficiency in the culinary arts. Mrs. K. Stoesser's gym classes, most eagerly awaited and most keenly missed of all periods, were a bright ray of light piercing the scholastic fog of the week. Freedom of assembly being one of our cherished rights, the Freshmen make use of it at their periodic class meeting. 1. Sr. M. Beatrice 2. Sr. M. Hnne 3. Sr. M. Magnus 4. Mrs. K. Stoesser 5.

Her stationery department was ever ready to oblige. ln the middle of each day, we forgot our studies while we discussed the latest news over Sister Mary Thecla's delicious desserts and Sister Mary Rita's tasty meals. With Sister Mary Pius, we learned to play the piano, and we had only ourselves to blame if we did not become young Paderewski's. ln the seventh and eighth grades, our younger sisters learn geography in an interesting fashione- by displaying the story of coffee in their handmade miniature theatre. 2 ' Q 3 .' ,W Cf V.

Hlthough the night of March 6 was a dismal one, a heavy rain making its appearance now and then, it could not dampen the spirits of the girls who attended the Pre-Lenten Dance sponsored by the Seniors. Within the Brentwood Shelter House, the julie box played constantly until the reluctant dancers finally left at the twelve o'clock deadline. Cn March 9, senior debaters participated in the F.C.H.S. Debate Tournament at St. Mary of the Mount High School, covering themselves with laurels, especially with thinking male opponents. The morning of March ll was spent profitably at North Central High School listening to the melodic strains of the Pittsburgh Symphony orchestra.

Q' ZADIES' UF Tl-IE PRESS 5 5 'YENA RIVERS Cn last May l5 the class of '42 presented Lena Rivers the trials and tribulations of a country girl visiting her snobbish relatives. lt included an lrish brogue, a Negro dialect and masculine parts which were all ably acted. Mary Qnn Gbringer was the attractive, if pert, Cinderella, Carol Marsin and Ethel Polkabla made a screamingly funny Negro pairg Louise Mullen was an interesting Grandmotherg Ellenjane Carlson performed credit- ably as the snobbish mother and Mary Margaret Crowley stole scenes as a mischievous brother. Qther parts were convincingly acted by Dolores Daube, Marie Moritz, Mary H. Petgen, losephine Rectenwald, Hlberta Smith, Virginia Zetwo, and Helen Sweeney. One of the most interesting plays l have ever seen, was a comment by mem- bers of the first-night audience. TI-IIS' WAS' TI-IE FIRST CIASS' PLAY I-IFR I-'IR57 DA NCP' Drawn by the smell of grease paint and the thrill of tootlights, the Class of '43 presented Her First Dance. Crinoline days came back as Mary Beth Conway, Louise Farrell, Rita Lumpp, Ruth Schreck, Virginia Zinns, Ruth Smoker, Mary Louise Mulvihill, Marita Showalter, Estelle Gres- kevich, LaVerne Seiler and Helen Qnita Bell led a merry chase through the Gay Nineties. Qde- laide Chubis, loan Cyphers, and Stella ludvitis started the tale and laid the setting in the pro- logue, and placed a neat finish to the plot in the epilogue. While the ways and means of the era plagued the course of true love, nostalgia filled the audience. Qnd the romantic strains of an old-fashioned waltz lingered in the air and in the mind long after the close of the curtain.

She is firm in her convictions. l-ler favorite expression is, Does that burn me upf She is Esefay and Safranac staffer, vice-president cf the Student Councilg and was succes- sively president and vice-president of the Business Club. Margaret Mary Kuberek 2418 Freedom Street Resurrection Brookline She reserves all her dislike for prim and proper people. The chewing gurn scarcity has been a minor tragedy to Kube, but she has somehow managed to be as lively as ever. She's equally deft with nail polish and typewriters, is always fresh and immaculate. She's been working on the Esefay as a typist for two years. Dorothy H. Kvederis 1500 Rutherford Hvenue St. Catherines Beechview She is the original sunshine and happiness girlfwe've yet to see her worried. She is constantly warbling the latest songs. Dot good-naturedly laughs at the corniest of her classmates' jokes and sympathizes with them in their troubles. She treasurers the Sodality's money---paying dues to her was practically painless. Rosemarie Marrone 119 West Parkway St. Mary Magdalene's Homestead, Pa. She dislikes being considered a little girl. She denies the fact that she has a rebellious spirit, so we'll call it a uquesting one. Her interests are always intense while they last, though she'll always love airplanes, football games, and ice- skating. She's pleasant, obliging, and ambitious. C Krall M. Kuberek lt , L.

She has an even disposition, is always composed. Her keen wit and dry comments are delightful. She was the Plc's official mailman. Lucille E. McLean 2120 Walton Street St. Norbert's Overbrook That slightly surprised air is perpetual. l-ler beautiful blue- black hair is her crowning glory. 1-ler favorite topic of con- versation is her little nephew. Nothing ever stops her re- freshing sense of humor from continuing on its merry way, but she always maintains her cool disposition and a demure aspect. Mildred L. Mills 1241 Oakridge Street Resurrection Brookline She's cool and quiet and reserved. You couldn't argue with her if you wanted top you're never guite sure what she's thinking. Shes always calrn, always seems untroubled. Mildred must have a remarkable sense of balance to have navigated our slippery corridors in her four-inch heels, D. Kvederis Ft.
