SUSAN TIERNEY SUE n 720 Clifton Avenue Newark, New Jersey We didn't have the pleasure of knowing Sue until she transferred to St. James in her Junior year. What a time we had discovering the delightful humor which showed up in the mischievous gleam in her eyes. She made us laugh at so many things, and made us come to depend on her steady, considerate manner. Pep and energy were added to our cheering squad by her skill of natural ability. LUCILLE TRIANO 25 Downing Street Newark, New Jersey The sophisticated girl with dark hair and big brown eyes is none other than Lucille. She knows the proper thing at the proper time, and does it. She is the kind who is a lady among all, in fact a pretty, dainty lady, from shampooed head to well- polished toes. Her good taste in clothes, in friends, and in her whole natural manner showed us a key to the personality of Lu.

Father Mannion blesses the rings before distributing them to the seniors, ا Seniors rejoice after completion of ring ceremony. The school ring is a symbol of the bond which exists between St. James High School and us who wear the ring. It is an image of the union existing between the Divine Teacher and His children. Its gold is a reminder of His love which transcends all knowledge and which transmutes us into the purest gold. Its red stone recalls for us the great price of that Divine Love, paid for with His precious blood. For the rest of our lives this ring will remain the priceless image of our union with Him, and we pray, Bless, Oh Lord, this ring. There is a grave responsibility attached to the wearing of the ring, which obliges us to remember always to be a credit to that ring and what it stands for; never to tarnish it in any way by our action. So it is with deep humility and with the greatest pride we shall take up the challenge and wear that ring in such a way that we will always reflect the highest credit on the school it represents. Father Grady gives gentle counsel to his spiritual flock, 21
