 1. The king is dead; long live the king! Latin, a dying, or — if you wish — a dead language, was given a new lease on life by, of all things, a tape recorder. 2. S.I.’s rallies were highlighted by such stars as Phil Woolpert and Al Corona; but the most popular was St. Mary's basketball star, Tom Meschery (John Kelterer). The big- chinned boy gave life to our rallies, Duh-h-h . . . 3. S.I.’s spring musical, Of Thee I Sing. (April 19 and 20). So many promising young voices were found at the Hilltop that we almost had two musicals this year 4. (June 6). Last day of school? Every cloud has a silver lining; S.I.'s comes early in June.Whether forever or just for three months, it makes no difference — vacation is vacation, the best time of the year. 5. Good morning, friends! Vice-Principal Fr. Carlin reigns supreme in his cozy office, admitting students to class, hearing excuses, and assigning jug: all the pleasant duties that go with the title of Prefect of Discipline. 6. (May 29). The al- mighty S.l. senior just before he leaves for the Senior Exclusive. (We have a picture of him the day after, but we can’t print it). 7. (April 17). The Bruce-Mahoney Memorial Trophy at home. (We couldn’t go to press without this picture.) 17

 1. How about a scholarship. Father? Of the untold mass who took the National Merit Scholarship Test, S.l. re- tained three from the top five thousand. Some boys study, others . . . well, forget it. Winners: Frank Sacherer, John Hogan, Bob Berio. 2. (February 12, Provincial’s Holiday). Not to be out done by Russia, S.l. held its own Atomic Energy Conference (imported from Oak Ridge, Tennessee). We now know how to construct our own genuine Atom Smasher. 3. There were too few students wearing the colors of the Wildcat cindermen this year. But those who did were, for the most port, successful. Thanks to Coach Hoy (and his small army of managers), track is now definitely on the upswing. 4. Trout among the sardines — S.I.’s swim team. Dashing down the swim ways you might see one of the many stars breaking an- other school record. The big hook in the A.A.A., that’s our swim team. 5. (March 4). Sparked by an organized senior section, the S.l. student body and basketball team almost upset the high-flying Washington Eagles. The team lost; the cheering section won. 6. (February 11) Where’d the girls go? The youngest of the oldest went crazy over their BIG night. After all, they waited three years for this moment. Reports have it they are already saving for next year.
