FHE CANDID CAMERA ALLOWS US A GLIMPSE INTO THE FACULTY LOUNGE FATHER FRANCIS GROSS taught Latin and Religion during our First two years at St. Francis. He was our first Student Council moderator, giving that organization the impetus which made it such an important part of school life. Wie remember Father particularly for his keen interest in each of his students. Father Gross is now stationed at the Northeast Catholic High School in Philadelphia. FATHER ROBERT HEALY is an- other member of the faculty who calls Toledo home. Father returned this year from the Father Judge High School in Philadelphia. Freshman Religion and Latin are his present classroom occupa- tions. After school, Father moderates the Student Council, which governs most school activities. The Junior Prom also comes under his direction. FATHER JOSEPH GRIFFIN divides his time between French and Religion classes with our juniors. Linder his guid- ance, our tax stamp drive this year was a huge success. Father Griffin is adept at the Sign Language, and has had ex- perience in working with the deaf, whose patron is our own St. Francis dc Sales. FATHER CHARLES HERKERT was a member of our first faculty, teaching Latin and French. Father received his doctorate at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania and took part in a Latin Wlorkshop at the University of Michigan. As Direc- tor of Activities, he set up a com- plete and varied program at school, and enlivened it with his own en- thusiastic spirit. WN'ith his transfer, St. Francis lost a strong rooter, however we wish him well in his post as professor at the Oblate No- vitiate College at Childs, Maryland. 21

FATHER WIXTED RINGS UP ANOTHER SALE IN THE BOOKSTORE FATHER LOUIS KOMOROWSKI labors in the Biology Lab for the benefit of the sophomores. He received his Master's degree last summer from Catholic Univer- sity and his dissertation has since been published in a scientific quarterly. Father Komorowski is moderator of the De Sales Seminary Associates and the Oblate Parents Guild. FATHER NICHOLAS KOELZER teaches American History, having received a Master's degree in that subject from Villanova University. A part of his research includes co- authoring a workbook in National Problems. Father has the position of school treasurer, and also serves as Director of Activities. FATHER ROBERT HERMLEY teaches Biology and German, but is perhaps better known for his work with the band. In its two years of existence, our band has come to be recognized for its clever and imagina- tive formations, as well as the quality of its music. Father Hermley is responsible for the drills which go into such productions. He also moderates the tennis team. DR. RAYMOND KELDERMANS is our band director and teacher of French. He received his musical training at the Lem- Inensinstitute in Mechelen, Belgium and the-Reichshochschule fur Music in Berlin, Germany. Dr. Keldermans has had exten- sive experience in radio work in Europe, and has given organ recitals in several cities in the United States and Canada. We are fortunate in having so capable a bandmaster. 22
