Here we were taught to seek for higher knowledge . . . to estimate the true values of life . . . to lift our minds and hearts in prayer . . . to study and to play in close companionship with our Divine Lord in the Tabernacle. VVe, the Class of '42, hope to carry Seton Hill in our hearts forever by practicing those ideals of Catholic womanhood which have elevated us to the beauties beyond heaven's blue. 0 .qldtet my 7204 . . . To Sister Mary Felix-who for two years was the prefect and the perfect angel in our own little heaven, Seton, we, the Sen- iors '42, dedicate this edition of Seton Light. -because her understanding ways revealed her true sense of justice -because her radiant smile changed sad days into glad days -because of her patience in our endless requests -because she inspired us to pattern our lives after Catholic ideals of wornanhood -because our association with her at Seton will be forever the most cherished memory of our school days That last night with our angel , Sister Mary Felix X8 Q2 .QBMZ Zanceica yu ee zeezfin A 72 at Zteczfteu As the golden chimes peal forth today, we academy girls deem it a great privi- lege to add our own heartfelt praise in honor of a Sister whose calm unfaltering step has gaged the distance of fifty years in the footsteps of her Master. To Sister Francesca, whose life has ever been one in faith, one in purpose, and one in living, we can find no higher praise than that which is found in the Name she took over fifty years ago Sister of Charity. Sister's gentle deeds and firm adherence to the noble purposes to which she pledged her life, make her, the ideal Sister of Charity. For halfa century in His service and for His honor and glory, even in times of stress and difficulties, she has held aloft the celestial banner ofthe love of God. With high courage she met misfortuneg with great wisdom she solved problemsg and with religious zeal she furthered the cause of Catholic education teaching, all with whom she camein contact by her own example. , Now, that golden rays are falling on our dear Sister's jubilee, we unite our prayers and praises in a wish that God may crown her with the riches of endless joys now and in eternity.

In the production, tlxe players unfolded a thrilling story of a former servant girl and her accomplice who had deprived a nobly born young girl of her paren- tal home and fortune, reducing her to servitude. lgnorant ofthe false pay, and disillusioned by her loss, Enid Bellamy, the lovely heroine of the play, QCaro- line Jamisonj discovers the scheme laid against her. Madame Charteris, CGeOrgia Theodorej, an old aristocrat of the South, aided by Miss Wlinterberry, fMargaret Ludrofskyj, a settlement worker, helped the orphan child regain her rightful position. The plans of the sisters, Caroline CMarion Conwayj, and Katherine Hawkes flsabel Kellyl were discovered too soon. The humor of the play was success- fully supplied by Manzmy Johnson, CCharlotte Oesterlingb, the black, Hblue grassn Widow and was greatly abetted by a delightful coquette, Miss -lohnnie Bell Randolph fjanet Borlandl.

Realizing in the Catholic Action moi Prep took part in a round table Press. Father Egbert was opened the discussion with his paper on The Here the need for an news from the Catholic view was pointed out. Another paper by rancis Carraher on the News Value of the Catholic Press stated that since most Catholic papers are weelclies the news in them is of little current value. That there is a need for a national daily Catholic paper with unified opinions was a fact all recognized. To compete with the secular press it was agreed that it must have up-to-date news stories, syndicated columns, sports and women's pages, and foreign correspondents. Discussions introduced by the girls led to such topics as Religion in the Navy , Congregational Singing , The Value of the Parochial School System , and Noted Catholic Authors. Opinions from both groups of students were given unhesitatingly without any reservation. The hour flew by as opinions clashed and decisions were reached. Subjects suggested for future discussion in the club were HMovie Censorship , The Magazines We Read, and Recent Novelsf' The primary aim of this group is to train the Catholic youth to develop his faculties, to think for himself on topics relating to his religion, and to enable him to discuss intelligently the current events of history in the light of Catholic truths and principles. 32 Each Sunday we go forth to inslruct Mary Devereux VVeld, Anne Daniels, Margaret Ludrofsky, Helen Garred Each Sunday we listen to The Catholic Hour Janet Gregoriusk Gertrude Miller, Corinne Norwich, Mary Ann Conlon gaihohk' qqcfion . . . 'KTO Jesus through Maryl' is the motto of the Rosa Mystica Sodality which fosters special devotions to Our Lady. Honoring her on Feast Days, the sodality decorates her altar with flowers. Flowers of a spiritual kind in the form of a Rosary of prayer they offer to her every day. Once a month the beautiful prayers of the Office are recited in unison. Packing baskets for the poor at Christmas time, and sponsoring the annual Valentine Dance make up the social activities. True Catholic crusaders are the loyal Sunday School teachers who bring the divine truths of Our Faith to little children who otherwise would be deprived of any knowledge of religion. Sacrificing precious hours of sleep, the girls rise early to set out for the near-by mining towns where they change their status from pupil to teacher. Of all activities of the C.S.M C. which include drives for stamps and campaigns for Catholic literature, the teaching of Sunday School exempli- fies best the real purpose of the C.S.M.C. that is, to help bring the word of God to people far away from the advantages of Catholic training. Long a favorite with all is the star speaker of the Catholic Hour, Monsignor Fulton Sheen. His weekly talks strengthen our Faith and form in us bulwarks of Catholic ideals against the propaganda of liberalism and atheism which per- vade the world today. ,I- Y' 1'-2 10 ance!

During the year opportunites are afforded X dent to gain individual recognition in various phases of musical accomp ents Twice a year the students of piano and organ appear in public re The Glee Club under the direction of Sister Ann Regina gives its initial pro- gram each year in conjunction with St. Vincent Prep Glee Club at Christmas time. The climax of the year's work in music is the production of an operetta. This offers all the students equal opportunity to join in the musical activities. This year The Waltz Dream by Oscar Straus was produced by the combined voices of St. Vincent Prep and Seton Hill. Besides the Glee Club which is composed of those most talented in singing, there is the voice class, a group who receive special training in voice placement. These selective songsters add to the piano recitals by singing several of their songs. The Finale of song comes in -lune when the entire student body sings the choruses on Commencement Day. ,D 7 , I 'A ,Q -'X . , 377 , A t X ' , I' 5 a - mum -I rv mood at Seton.

From there ambitious plans were formulated by Miss O'Brien, our coach, who helped us place Seton's debaters with the 'largumentativeu immortals. Our courageous pioneer debating teams soon met the various schools ofVVest- moreland County belonging to the league known once as the i'Little Six , but now as the Big Eight. Upholding the affirmative side were Alice Nlarie Skir- pan and Ellen Francis Rodgers, Mary Ellen Curran and Mazli Deibler. Anna Marie Chirico, Annabelle Turney, Margaret Ludrofsky and Patsy Highberger debated for the negative side of the question. Excitement reached its highest peak during the debate tournament held here, at St. Vincents, and Greensburg High School.

The second year French students presented an old French legend, Le Miracle. ln keeping with most legends about Saint Nickolas, this is the story ofthe good saint,s rescue of his choir- boys from a cruel butcher. As their contribution to the program, the first year French students made Christmas cards bearing greetings in French. These they presented to each member of the faculty as well as to the students in the club. The program closed with the familiar carols, HVoici Noelf, Nouvelle Agreeablel' and Il est ne Le Devin Enfantf 14 an--Qmezicdnm La session se abre, opened the first meeting of Las Pan-Americanas de Seton Hill , Feb- ruary l3.

Vilriting Spanish plays, singing Spanish songs, studying customs of Spanish people constitute the activities of this new-born club.

Here at Seton we have been riding on the Victory Xvagonl' side by side with our mothers and fathers to help in the program for Civilian Defense. The ac- tivities were promoted by a Victory Rally held by the seniors who urged all to pledge ri day of each week as a sacrifice day for purchasing defense stamps. The seniors themselves pledged their class gift to the school 15300, to buy Whr Bonds. A Courses in Home Nursing and First Aid were offfered to juniors and seniors in preparing them for civilian work in time of need.

STUDENT COUNCIL Rosemary Dudley, Mary Helen Dwyer, Phyllis Laufe, Catharine Redding, Caroline Jamison, Minnie Mannarino, Anne Ben- nis, Concetta Zaccoli .Quofenf Zane! . . . The Student Council at Seton has just completed its third year of existence and is still an active force in the building of character among the students. It is the governing body of the school, consisting of a president, vice-president, and secretary elected from the upperclassmen. Representatives from the various classes are chosen to serve on the council which really acts as an advisory board. Student Government is an organization which embodies democratic principles. It is an effective agent in teaching the girls the full appreciation of privileges and responsibilities. Besides giving them a share in governing the School affairs, it instills in all a desire to follow school regulationsg it sharpens student interest in school- sponsored functions. Therefore, our Student Council has always endeavored to be more than an agent for maintaining discipline. It has succeeded in stimulating responsibility, initiative, and the opportunity for leadership in the girls. This organization has proved beneficial to both the students and the faculty during the three years of its experimentation. It has sown the seeds of democratic ideals in the lives of its members. 46 From the Council come the plans for the Gym year at Seton ATI-U PTIC COUNCIL Margaret Ludrofsky, Virginia 'I lllex Mary Miller, Madeline Leonlrd Shirley McMahon, Becki he-gg, Charlotte Oester- ling Helen Garred, Marjorie -pfdfefic ouncz' . . .

The first part of the program consisted of carols among which were Holy Night , 'KCarol Sweetly Carol , and Bethlehem , arranged for choirs, during which were tableaux of the shepherds, the Wise Men, and Madonna and Child. Seniors were honored as madonnas in the program. The first tableaux-- The Annunciationu--showed Catharine Redding kneeling in prayer with Madeline Leonard as the Angel Gabriel. Kitty O,Connor held the Infant in the Nativity scene when the shepherds came to adore their God. An unusual feature of the evening was the living, singing Christmas Tree which the girls themselves formed, and which sparkled brightly by each girl's flashlight. In front of the tree sat the Madonna, Mary Helen Dwyer holding The Child. The entire group joined in the Adeste Fidelis which brought the Christmas program to a close.
