THE ANNUNCIATA THE ANNUNCIATA CLASS OFFICERS Class Colors GREEN AND GOLD Class Motto LABOR OMNIA VINCIT CLASS OFFICERS JOHN SMITH - - President MARY CAMPANA - - Vice-President JOHN SARAMA - - REGINA HOUGHTON VIRGINIA LYNAGH - - Treasurer - Corresponding Secretary Recording Secretary SENIOR DEBATING TEAM JAMES ALLISON PAUL GRADY THOMAS HENRY THE ANNUNCIATA JOHN SMITH Strange, that we, too, should have a famous Captain John Smith. However, his interests are not among the Indians: but his energies have always been directed toward better basketball, and we all know how well he has suc- ceeded. Originally a Trojan, he was bound to succeed, His popularity is well deserved, for he is always the cour- teous gentleman and pleasant companion. His captaincy is now two-fold, for he has carried the added burden of class president during the Senior year. Although but a short time remains, we know that his careful steering will bring us safely into port. l MARY CAMPANA Mary is a girl just overflowing with the right type of ambition. Naturally talented, she is yet unselflsh and gladly distributes any knowledge she may have acquired by patient research. As a friend, she is tops. Whether we think of her as Mrs lVlarlenburg or as Miss Prim we are reminded of her dramatic ability. lVlary's career is as yet undecided. but we know that whatever work she chooses, she will make a success of it, and we all wish her well. JOHRN SARAMA Husky and strong, John is at the same time a very quiet and gentle student. In John's case, student is no misnomer because he plods on until he accomplishes his task. This year, he was elected class Treasurer and we knew that the enormous sum, with which he was en- trusted, was always safe. John is one of the modern youth who is truly wise: for his main ambition is to be the owner of a large farm. We only hope it is not located too far from good old Billtown. -15- THE ANNUNCIATA' REGINA HOUGHTON Neue is a bonnie lass, never dismal, but ever ready to play the role of good neighbor. Her assiduity in secre- tarial work will fit her admirably for life in the business world. She possesses originality and imagination along with a keen sense of humor. No amount of difficulties can force her to lose her optimistic attitude and her smiling countenance. So continue to smile, Regina, and may the world smile with you. VIRGINIA LYNAGH A'Ginnie is a quiet miss, but full of fun. I-Ier leader- ship in the cheering section at our basketball games did much to encourage the team and lead it on to victory. In dancing, she is excelled by few. Her popularity has not affected her in any way, for she still pursues her even way of kindness and goodness. Have we heard aright, Vir- ginia, that you desire to be an actress? Well, whatever career you choose, we will follow you with our good wishes. TERRENCE GRAMLING Terry is without doubt a valuable asset to the Senior class. School spirit has never been dormant in Terrence, so his popularity is not to be wondered at. He has al- ways been a loyal supporter of athletics and his favorite saying is, 'Alf you can't take part in a sport, be one, As Bob Stewart, he distinguished himself in the class play, We hope that Terry's future will be as bright and happy as his days in school. -.u16-. THE ANNUNCIATA JAMES ALLISON A good student, and at the same time, a good athlete, Jim is the typical American Boy. Excelling in the Com- mercial Course, he has set his pace for a career in the business world. His poise and his fine quality of voice made him a valuable member of the debating team, on which he has served faithfully for two years. As Presi- dent, he guided the class through its socially-active Junior year with calm cheerful dignity. Jim's honest, sincere attitude command the respect of all with whom he asso- ciates. Q JANE AUDET The world is always smiling for Janie. Even when she is twitted about her size, she answers smilingly, Good things come in small packages. Sprightly, lovable, studious, she possesses school spirit to the nth degree. If Jane's ambitions are realized, she will be a first-class li- brarian. Her assiduity in the English Literature class will be well repaid when she lives among books. Here's wish- ing you the best of luck, Jane. LORRAINE CAVALIER Vivacious, gay, and energetic - that's our Rainie. In sewing her skating outfit, she showed great ability and promise as a dressmaker: but Lorraine says it is only her hobby and that her ambition is to be a beautician. This little lady just doesn't recognize the word, can't and her capacityi for work is amazing. With such a combination of talent can anyone doubt she will be a success? Lots of luck to you, Raine! -17- THE ANNUNCIATA' ELEANOR CULHANE A friend in need is a friend, indeed applies forcibly to Eleanor. She considers it no trouble to help a class- mate in any way that lies in her power. Although she excels in scholarship, she always Hnds time to take an active part in all social affairs of the school. Eleanor devotes much of her time to her work as school librarian, but her ambition just now is to be a nurse. Success, Eleanor, in whatever you do. MARGARET DEWAN Here, Reader, is our idea of the perfect Senior. Quiet, dignified, and capable, Peggy is probably the best-liked girl in the class: and no wonder, for her unassuming charm has captured our hearts. Her speed in shorthand is marvelous: and we know that Margaret, as a private secretary, will be efliciency personified. We shall be very sorry when the time comes to say good-bye. JOSEPH DOLAN Joseph is not only a gentleman: he is a gentle man. Quiet and unassuming, he is all kindness and consideration for others. His graciousness in doing a good turn for someone is one of his many fine traits. We do not mean that Joe is over-serious: no, he has a Hne sense of humor which makes him a most agreeable companion. St. Joe's will miss Joe in more ways than one. -13.- THE ANNUNCIATA ARLENE ENGLER Arlene's manner appeals to you at the moment of in- troduction. She has a cheery disposition, and puts you at your ease at once. There is a great deal of prudence and feminine dignity, however, wrapped up in this cheerful little package. We predict that her innate ability in dra- matics will make itself felt later. We know that with her winning personality she will succeed in whatever vocation she chooses. PAUL GRADY Paul is a very likeable chap. He enters into all class activities. As an orator, he has won laurels, and in the inter-class debates is a star. In dramatics, he litted into all roles, portraying Michael and lVIr. Legal with equal skill. He is happiest when using his argumentative powers, but he is most docile and reverent where authority is con- cerned. We hope he succeeds in getting all his big heart desires. PATRICK GRIFFIN I-Iere's a gentleman in whom Irish wit and manly spirit are blended in such proportions as to make him de- sirable in all circles. His application to his commercial studies is a line foundation for his future life work. His gracious manner and his well-groomed appearance will go far in obtaining a position in the business world. -IQW- THE ANNUNCIATA EUGENE HARTZELL Among the class notables may be ranked Eugene. That knowing smile does fascinate and that imperious will does fashion clear wit. Knowing his oratorical and dra- matic abilities, we predict a brilliant stage career for 'Gene, but, alack and alas, he says he'll be a tycoon, whatever that may be. Seriously, Eugene's mental, moral, and intel- lectual abilities Ht him for various walks in life. It is our hope he may choose aright. THOMAS HENRY Business-like and independent is our golden-voiced salesman, Tom. He is gifted with two talents, either of which would be sul'Hcient to make him a success anywhere. His reverence and respect for authority have always dis- tinguished him. Tom would like to enter Fordham and become a doctor: in the event that he does, we know that he will continue to bring more fame to St. Joseph's. Eileen is one of the most popular members of the class. Her ambition is to become a beautician. She should do well in this capacity, for she is herself a model of well- kept appearance: especially admirable is her own neat hair-do. Not only does Eileen make friends readily, but she has the faculty of keeping them, too. Modest, pious, studious are some of the adjectives that may be applied to Eileen. -ZG- we Xx Q N W A N X - sof a Ls? Josispn LUXENBERGER Joe is a worth-while friend, full of fun and good will. You will always find him with the crowd, when it is in the right. Ask O'Flanagan if you don't believe me. Although not an athletic star, he is always interested in sports. His trend in the vocational line seems to be toward the commercial. We surely wish you success in any of your undertakings, Joe THE ANNUNCIATA MARJORIE LOGUE Marge is the tall, blonde girl who divides her time equally between her Academic and Commercial subjects. Although most industrious, she has plenty of spare mo- ments for fun and laughter. At present, the nursing pro- fession makes strongest appeal to her. One can readily see her wisdom in choosing a schedule which will fit her for her chosen vocation. Miss Collegiate has the proper initiative to carry her through. Best of luck, Marge. YVILLIAM MCDERMOTT Bill is a student of whose company we never tire. Apparently retiring and reticent, yet he is always willing to take part in all class activities. His hobby just now seems to be shooting people - with his camera. As to his real career, we do not think he has yet decided, but we do know that whatever Bill undertakes will be carried out calmly and efficiently. -21... THE ANNUNCIATA PAUL MELLEN Paul breezed into the class in the Junior year, all the way from Indiana. His studious attitude and pleasing personality soon endeared him to teachers and pupils alike. His line mind and his serio-comic outlook on life are assets which we know he will use to the best of his ability. His inquiring mind does not take all things for granted: he must know the reason. Paul is an all-around student and fits into every phase of student activity. We know he has a bright future and we are sure he will make good. HELEN POWELL Allow me to present, Helen, five feet of pep, imagi- nation and fun. This class favorite is better known as Rusty 3 we are not sure how the pseudonym originated, but it must be all right for Helen doesn't object to it. We will always remember how well she portrayed the char- acter of Aunt Martha, with her vitamins and Hcal- ories and high blood pressure. Helen is a leader in stenographic work, and we know her future will be suc- cessful. BETTY SULLIVAN Allow me to present Betty! Betts always greets us with a cheery smile. Her good will and cooperation in all school activities is appreciated by all. We never hesitate to count on her cabin when planning parties. Quiet and unassuming in her manner, she manages to enjoy all the fun and sport around her, never neglecting the work at hand. -gg-- THE ANNUNCIATA THE PEACE CE CHRIST HE Angel's song of peace, directed to men of good will ushered in the spirit of Christ which later dominated His own dealings with! the people of His time. The peace of that first Christmas night returns on each anniversary of the Nativity. Who has not felt it personally? Shakespeare mentioned this phenomena in several plays, notably, Hamlet and Julius Caesar. Christ used the word, peace, constantly. On Lake Genesareth, when the raging sea and howling winds had frightened the apostles, they roused Our Blessed Saviour. Raising His hand and pronouncing the words, Peace be still, He calmed the winds and the sea. On the occasion of Mary Magdalen's con- version, Christ commanded her to Go in peace and sin no more. When I-Ie left His apostles, His parting words were, My peace I leave unto you. The regard which Christ had for peace was also emphasized in His Sermon on the Mount. The eulogy to promoters of peace expressed in the words, Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall possess the kingdom of Heaven, is ignored today by the mad disturbers of peace among nations. The Church continues to remind her children of Christ's high esteem for peace every time the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is offered. Christ, through His minister, the celebrant of the Mass, invokes peace on His people in the words, Pax vobiscumf' In the solemnity of a High Mass peace is expressed by the kiss of peace, which each priest bestows upon the other. Christ not only urges us to pray for peace among the living but also for those who have departed from this world. In the Mass and absolution for the dead, we hear repeated Re- quiescat in pace. The visible Vicar of Christ on earth constantly urges peace with justice among all people. The late Pope Pius XI and his successor, Pope Pius XII, are known as Peace Popes. May the God of Justice, The Prince of Peace, grant us that peace which the world cannot give. ELEANOR A. CULHANE. TI-IE DCVE CE PEACE INCE remote antiquity, the dove has been regarded as an emblem of mildness, innocence, and peace. The dove of folklore, literature, art, and religious symbolism, is believed to be descended from the wild blue or rock pigeon of Europe and Asia. Biblical references to the dove are frequent. In the old Testament, we have the beautiful picture of the dove, sent out by Noe, returning with the olive branch, the symbol of peace. In fact, this seems to be the origin of the symbol, Dove of Peace, which is referred to in literature and art. In His beautiful figures of speech, Christ often mentioned the guilelessness and simplicity of the dove. How sad a spectacle we, of today, behold - the eagle of destruction carrying with it greed, duplicity, and love of war has, in many countries, sup- planted the dove and the olive branch. HELEN POWELL. THE ANNUNCIATA PEACE AMCDNG NATIQNS EACE is generally understood as a state of tranquillity: a time of calm and repose: the absence or cessation of war. We live in a peaceful nation: and to all loyal Americans that is a real blessing. War is distasteful to a people quietly engaged in civic matters neces- sary to carry out a successful government. Peace has always been the thought foremost in the minds of our national leaders. Our constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, contains in its preamble an emphatic note of peace. From the earliest days of our fair country, peace has been the national theme. Even the Colonial times, when trouble arose among the Indians, William Penn negotiated a Treaty of Peace, so that a state of tranquillity might be restored. George Washington, our first president, besides being iirst in war and first in the hearts of his countrymen, was also first in peace. The United States, early in her career, adopted a policy of neutrality and this, too, she has managed to maintain. She has been very proud of this fact, especially during these times of agitation in countries other than our own. She always tried to avert war and to settle her disputes by elections and courts. Her love of peace was shown during the World War: for it was only when her na- tional honor was at stake that she consented to enter the conflict. At the sug- gestion of her president, Woodrow Wilson, a League of Nations was formed to settle peaceably the great problems after the war was over. The nations in the Eastern Hemisphere are almost constantly engaged in some dispute which is an excuse for continual warfare. China and Japan seem to be unable to come to any peaceful terms for their disagreements. The Soviets of Red Russia have for almost the past decade been in an unsettled state, and of course the world knows what havoc the mad ruler of Germany is causing. These two nations help each other in trying to put God out of His world. They think only of their own honor and glory. Spain, too, was forced into war in order to rid her boundaries of the godless forces of Russia. England and France are drawn into the present conflict, and many fear that another world war is imminent. The Pope, the spiritual world ruler, and the President of the neutral United States are acknowledged the most capable peacemakers: and the world looks hope- fully toward them. God has been for the most part dethroned by nations and in- dividuals: now when time of distress comes, they realize that peace can be ob- tained only by restoration of the true God to His rightful place in His creation. Christ's greetings were always words of peace: but one of the conditions was implied in the words, to men of good will. Nations are composed of men, and when they too are of good will, then and only then, will they have enduring peace. JANE AUDET. - 24 - THE ANNUNCIATA CLASS HISTORY A class, we came to Saint Joe's School A dozen years ago: Timid, fearful boys and girls With hearts and cheeks aglow. We came to learn to write and read So many, many things: Guided from the start, we know By guardian angel wings. Throughout the years, we studied well. Our course was carefully planned: Religion - the foundation-stone: All fads and frills were banned. A spirit entered our young class -So many years ago, Remaining ever with us In times of joy and woe. And now, the volume closes: But ere we place the seal, In humble gratitude to God. The Class of '40 kneel. LORRAINE CAVALIER APPRECIATIGN HIS edition of the ANNUNCIATA was made possible through the cooperation of Father Hughes with the Class of '4O. We are deeply indebted to our pastor, Father Leonard for his interest in our spiritual welfare. We also appreciate the untiring eiTorts.of the Sisters who for the past twelve years have guided us toward our goal. We know that we shall miss them in the days to come but their memory will always live in our hearts, JAMES ALLISON. 1 25 .. THE ANNUNCIATA' A Peace Bridge Der A Chasm ECENTLY, in the New York Times, a cartoon appeared depicting the nation as a man glueing the national shirt to his back and the caption read Now More Than Ever. And truly now more than ever we must keep our shirts on: we must keep calm and cool-headed. Propaganda is iiooding the country mostly, we must admit, pro-English and pro-French. About eighty per cent of our newspapers sympathize with England and France. A few are even bold enough to demand that the United States enter the war on the side of England. What we can't understand is why we should fight England's wars for her. According to history, we broke away in 1776. Are we still a dominion of the British Empire that we feel impelled to help her, to help her at the cost of our own youth? And why should some bigoted Americans feel thus when the English them- selves tell us to keep out. Recently a book was published entitled England Expects Every American to Do His Duty. Despite the title the book is im- partial. Its author, Mr. Quincey Howe, explodes the myth that England is fighting for Democracy: and he boldly states the British Empire is fighting for economic reasons. We cannot blame her: that is her affair. Our danger lies within our own country, in the cheap sensational journals which have nothing better to do than harangue the nation. Let us remember the propaganda of 1914 concerning the supposed outrages and cruelties of the Germans: and let us take care lest similar stories draw us into this second hellish conflict. Our suggestion is that while the storm of propaganda is raging, we read and re-read Washington's Farewell Address. It may act as glue to keep our national shirt on. MARY CAMPANA. CLASS SONG.- St. Joseph's adieu! We're grateful to you: Sadly we say good-bye to you. Through your wide open door, We'lI enter no more: This is our last good-bye to you. We know that though we are gone Our dreams will linger on For dear old St. Joe, We love you. We smile through the tears, Thanks for twelve joyous years. Now we say good-bye to you. VIRGINIA LYNAGH. -- 26 ... - .THE ANNUNCIATA St. loe's Basketeers Basket after basket, Is a frequent acquisition. Of the great team of Saint J oseph's. And oh, what opposition! A very stalwart group is this In suits of white and blue: It's the team you Ioue to cheer for They'll win for you and you. The ever loyal patrons Cheer them on to fame: You may be sure each basketeer Wz'Il hear you call his name. Three cheers then for St. Joseph's And for their captain tall, Who features single-handed When e'er he gets the ball. BETTY SULLIVAN. TRUE GREATNESS H RUE GREATNI-ESS is a phrase which has been interpreted in as many ways as there are opinions in the world. Some people think that it consists in social prestige: others believe they possess it if they are wealthy and pros- perous. Ruskin says that to be mighty of mind and heart-magnanimous- is to be truly great. In my opinion, the truly great are those who evaluate properly the things of time and those of eternity. They have the courage to give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's. These dare to be in the right with the few. How true the words of Saint John, The things of this world pass away. The majority of men never become great on earth: this opportunity is the lot of a selected few. Those who imitate Saint John, in making the happiness of Heaven their goal, show true greatness. There is no limit to the number of those who are given this chance. Do you, like St. John, seek first the Kingdom of God, and afterwards the desired treasures of earth? Of course this effort requires courage, since man is drawn downward by the effects of original sin. Go back in memory and you will probably recall an instance or two in which you rebelled against an unpleasant task, and yielded only from a sense of duty. Did it not require courage? Christ set us the example of courageous action: He prayed for His executioners: He publicly reproved the hypocritical Pharisees: He refuted the learned Doctors in the Temple. THF ANNUNCIATA ' A heroic Catholic, therefore, without fear of anyone, will practice his reli- gion openly: he will be just and fair in dealing with his neighbor: he will ignore those who scoff at religion: he will practice the virtues Christ taught-humility, love of neighbor, love of children. There is a new morality, so-called, spreading throughout the world, and getting the iron hold or grasp on people. It attacks two commandments only. It assumes the power to repeal the sixth and ninth commandments which Christ gave to the world nearly two thousand years ago, and which have re- mained intact until the present day. It gives license for breaking these two commandments by changing the ugly names of sin to pleasanter ones: com- monly making them known as necessary pleasures for all. Everybody's doing it is their slogan. This deadly enemy is driving society down into muck and filth. Its real name is sex immoralityf' It works through movies, books, and magazines in an attempt to contaminate the whole world, but particularly the youth of today - the future men and women. The Catholics of the world should meet this challenge by courageous adherence to the teaching of Christ and greater devotion to Mary, the spotless one. Then only are they truly great. Today Catholic youth is one of the greatest powers for good to be found in the world. There are many methods by which its power can be demon- strated. First of all, it should foster the good being done today, through Cath- olic actiong it should oppose most vehemently the evil forces at their source. By patronizing only the best pictures, magazines, books, and fashions, Catholic youth is putting their stamp of disapproval on this new morality. Movie producers will gradually be aware of this and produce clean pictures: editors of magazines will change their type of literature to suit the Catholic youth if they make a united stand. I ask you, is not this true Greatness? The good example of Catholic youth will show its effects on their com- panions who indulge in such trash advocated by this new mortality program. They will admire a youth who, encompassed by vice, will stand firm behind his Christian principles. They will say, If he can stay away from evil, so can I. So it is up to our Catholic youth to choose a life of virtue, goodness, purity, courage, and truth, and to shun the brazen, shameless people of today who have lost all sense of sin. The hypocrites of Christ's time did not boast of sin, but still they indulged in it: the present day hypocrites pay tribute to virtue, but homage to vice, Virtue is right, but we will indulge in vice, is their theme. Is this true greatness? Rather, is it not true folly? Therefore, the Catholic youth of today have the greatest opportunity for true greatness: they can either sway the world toward good, or send it tumbling to the depths of evil. They should oppose this new morality and make known the Catholic viewpoint. They should be proud of the fact that they are members of the largest religious body in the United States, and prouder still that they are members of the only religious body founded by Christ. Catholic youth! Listen to the call of Christ. Be active and aggressive in the service of Christ, for never was the call more imperative than today: and then will you know the true and real meaning of the words: True Greatness. How great are you?

This was the scene presented the public by Saint Joseph's Seniors on Sunday eve- ning, the feast of Saint Patrick, March 17, 1940. The characters gave excel- lent portrayals of life on the campus. Miss Collegiate in the person of Beth Hart fMarjorie Loguel enters Paxton at the beginning of the semester and finds college life full, for her, in the person of her good friends, Clarice Fountain fJane Audetj and Bob Stewart CTerrence Gramlingj. Bob, tutor and coach to the rich Morgan Drake, Jr. CThomas Henryj , is involved in a holdup-murder: assuming Drake's name he enters college, practices football, meets Beth Hart, and draws on Drake's account, with the latter's per- mission. Professor Artemus Jones ffiugenc Hartzellj is under the kind but watch- ful and authoritative chaperon, Miss Prim CMary Campanab. She has been trying to marry him all during his reign and finally accomplishes it, stealthily coaching the dear Dean. Beth, Bob, and Drake, however, are not the only students at Paxton. Good-natured Olive Brewster CRegina Houghtonj and her studious be-speckled friend Wilma Fox CBetty Sullivanj keep their eyes on football coach Rudy Shaw fJohn Smithb, Victor Glad Uoseph Luxenbergerj, 'Gabby' Baker CPaul Mellenj, and Emerson Tierney fWilliam McDermottD. Karen Hayes CHelen Powellj is a dancer in the night-club where the murder took place. On the day of the big football game with Strathmore, rival college of Paxton, the Town Marshal, Mr. Legal CPaul GradyD comes to arrest Bob Stewart for forgery. Beth Hart schemes to let Bob play and feigns guilt her- self. The game is won by Paxton, and Mr. Legal is let out of the gym- nasium. The real Morgan Drake, Jr., turns up, and marries the dancer, Karen Hayes. Beth and Bob are reconciled and decide to take the same steps. Gabby Baker, so-named because of his unwillingness to talk, is captured and held by a cute, lisping home-town-girl, Emily Weller CLorraine Cava- lierj. MARGARET DEWAN. NTI-IE GIFTS OF SAINT PATRICK ESPER hour in a small town finds Mrs. James CMargaret Dewanj admitting a friend CVirginia Lynaghj into the home of Mrs. Kelly fEleanor Culhaneb. Mrs. James accused Mrs. Kelly, who has been blind for nearly thirty- five years, of the theft of two thousand dollars, which her husband had given Mr. Kelly to buy bonds. The latter was hurt at work and died two days later without regaining consciousness, and Mr. James never received the bonds. Mrs. James buys Mrs. Kelly's home and turns her out. Indignant, Michael fPaul GradyD and Peggy CArlene Englerb, two young friends of the blind woman agree to give her a home. The Friend leaves the house and returns in a short while with a young man, who turns out to be Tom Kelly fPatrick Griflinl, Mrs. Kelly's lost son. The kind Friend is his wife, Alita Kelly, fVirginia Lynaghj. Hearing of his mother's plight, Tom persuades his mother to come to live with them. The bonds are found behind a picture of Saint Patrick, having been inadvertently placed there by Mrs. Kelly when her husband lay ill. The story ends with everybody happy and the choir singing to Mrs. Kelly who designates the finding of the bonds and the return of her son as The Gifts of Saint Patrick. MARGARET DEWAN. -311 COLLEGIATE MISS -THE ANNUNCIATA Mother I know that I shall never find A person, who's more good and kind: One who seeks our happiness. Full of love and graciousness. This dearest person is my M other: I love her as I could no other. She ranks foremost in my heart, She's always willing to lake my part. Mother gives up much for us all, Is ready at our beck and call. From this I'm sure that you will see Just what my Mother means to me. ARLENE ENGLER. Dad To Dad we go when we feel blue, To him we take our troubles, too. He it is who helps us out, And always is a willing scout, To Dad we owe so many things: Education and the gain it brings: Needs of life and pleasures, too: Support and help in all we do. To Dad we look with the greatest pride. From him, nothing, must we hide. May God grant to him His greatest grace, And make sorrow to joy and peace give place. EILEEN KING. Gool's Gift God gave us many, many gifts - The land and boundless seas: He gave us earth and sun and showers, Which nourish flowers and trees.

CLASS SPIRIT We entered St. Joe's High, With will to do or die: Our courage at its peak, We labored week by week. When troubles came our way, We worked without delay: To put the foe to flight. We toiled with all our might. Much sunshine and some rain Filled days of loss and gain: But study, long and hard Brought back its own reward. With heart and will sincere, We'ue reached our final year. Undaunted, in life's fight. We'll dare to do the right. MARJORIE Locus SUMMER Roaming through the fields in summer Makes one's spirit blithe and gay: Birds are singingg sheep still slumber: Fragrance comes from new-mown hay. The swift young deer glides slowly onward Light as though he floats on air: The brook still keeps its steady murmur And the day is warm and fair. All the furry little tenants Dwell in tree, or bush or ground, But they love to roam the woodland All the day - without a sound. VIRGINIA LYNAGI-I. -. 36 - v THE ANNUNCIATA Tl-IE I-IAUNTED HGUSE ARY lived a long distance from the school, and in fine weather she loved the walk through the woods which was a short cut to the school. She loved the beauty of nature in the spring, as the tiny buds came out on the trees and the little flowers pushed their heads through the earth. In autumn, she lingered in the woods for the sight of the trees with their leaves of different hues, and she murmured a prayer to the good God who had made all this possible. Mary was a courageous girl and never gave a thought to the Haunted House when she walked through the woods alone. It was said that Old Lizzie, as she was called by the people in the town, had died there, and her ghost roamed through the house continually looking for the will her uncle had made. The will could never be found. It was said that Lizzie had made the statement, I will never rest until that will is found: and I will kill anyone who dares to intrude. Dorothy was Mary's closest chum. She waited for Mary on the other side of the woods: then, together they walked to school. The Haunted House was the general topic of discussion on this particular morning. As neither one of these girls believed in ghosts they tried to figure out the reason for the queer noises and strange lights which some people had said they had heard and seen. After school, the two girls decided to investigate these happenings around the Haunted House. They looked around outside: then, seeing the door open they decided to go in. They walked through the kitchen, dining-room, and living-room. As they were about to see what was behind the next door, they heard a sound as if someone was walking near them. After a few minutes of waiting the noise ceased. They regained their courage and proceeded to open the door slowly. Both girls stood there as if they were turned to stone. When they realized their danger, it was too late. The men had seen them. These ugly-looking individuals dropped the large sum of money they had been count- ing on the table: and, before the girls knew what had happened, they were bound and gagged. It was not hard to tell the men were uneasy, because they cast furtive glances about them as if they expected someone to see them. Now they began to dis- cuss ways to get rid of the girls. ' What should we do with 'em Bill? asked one. Leave 'em here, can't take 'em with us, that's sure. The men gathered up their belongings and left the house. Mary and Dor- othy tried to get their hands freed but in vain. Would no one come for them? Would Jack forget where they had gone? Would they be left here to die? These and many more questions flashed into their minds. They were now very hungry and their throats were parched from the gags. Their fears were soon turned to joy: for at last there was Jack. He came in, looked around and then went out of the room. He had not seen them there in the dark corner. The girls continued their prayers. After what seemed hours of waiting Jack returned and released them. As soon as they reached home, they called the police and were told that the men were probably those who had robbed a bank a few nights previous. It was not long until the men were found. Mary and Dorothy were called to identify them. The girls were given a reward for helping in the rescue of the two most wanted criminals in the state. BETTY SULLIVAN. .. 37 ..

MARGARET DEWAN ELEANOR CULHANE -38- -THE ANNUNCIATA A VICTIM CDF WAR LL was quiet on the Western Front. The bombing and the rat-a-tat-tat of the machine gun had ceased while a pale moon shone on the barbed wire of the trenches. It also shone on the lone sentry slowly pacing up and down. Pacing one-two-three-four. Turn four-three-two-one. Pacing one-two-three- four. Quiet enough now: but once the firing began his life wouldn't be worth much. The soldier was afraid: he didn't want to die. He was too young. He began to reason: Why should he die? For what? What was this war about? What great cause was at stake? None, that he could see: just one man's greed. He wouldn't die for such a cause: he'd desert first. Desert! The pacing stopped, Yes, that was the answer. Funny, the idea hadn't occurred to him before. Down deep in his heart, the private knew he was only making excuses for his cowardice. He hated to admit it even to himself that he had a streak of yellow in him. He resumed his pacing more quickly now. It would be so easy he told himself: his path lay to the West, to the village of Plessis-les-Tours. From there he could board a train and cross the border into a neutral country. There he would be safe -- safe. For ten minutes he argued with himself pacing up and down - up and down, pacing one-two-three-four. Turn four-three- two-one. Then his love for life won out. Dnce the soldier had made up his mind, he acted quickly. He glanced at his watch: another hour before he would be relieved: he had plenty of time to get away. Climbing up the embankment, he found himself on the battlefield. Crouching cautiously he began to crawl westward. Once he heard a groan but he didn't stop to investigate: it was now every man for himself. On and on he went, suffering from both fear and exertion. He murmured again, Yes sir, let those other fools stay if they want to, I am not going to die like a ----- There was a blinding flash and a deafening noise. It was an enemy air raid! His battalion would be wiped out because he had deserted his post - because he hadn't been there to warn them. Remorse engulfed him momen- tarily - but only momentarily. He continued on his way but the airplanes kept dropping bombs. The soldier glanced at the sky and just then saw an airplane release a bomb directly over him, he screamed and attempted to run - the bomb struck. A few days later they picked up his remains and laid them to rest in a foreign cemetery. His tombstone bore the doubly ironic inscription: IT IS SWEET AND FITTING TO DIE FOR ONE'-S COUNTRY.

LORRAINE CAVALIER EILEEN KING REGINA HOUGHTON ...41 .. THE ANNUNCIATA DESTRGYERS CDF PEACE This changing world, this changing scene, Where is it taking us, what does it mean? OWN through the ages, certain men have set themselves up as earthly gods, and have demanded tribute from their subjects. The present age is no ex- ception: for today certain men of European countries are doing just this. But they are not satisfied with the tribute that is paid to themselves: for they dare to dictate to human beings their very thoughts and actions. To refuse means certain death. Not content with all this, these men are so avaricious that they reach out and conquer smaller nations and crush them under an iron heel. Theirs is a vaulting ambition which o'er leaps itself. They recognize no moral law, theirs is a service to selfish interests and not to country. We in America are fortunate that we live in a Democracy, and we can thank Cuod that we are not under the control of these tyrannical rulers. But unless we are careful this country will be under such control, for records and every day occurrences show that the very men with whom we entrust our rights of life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness are members of organizations, springing from the fiendish minds of these European Dictators. We who have received a Cath- olic Education know the evils of these various isms and we can do much to stop them from spreading here in our own country by living our Catholic religion daily. Therefore, we should look on it, not only as a duty, but as a privilege, to save our loved country, America, from this Red Death. TERRY J. GRAMLING. The Commercial Department The Commercial Department is where to go: When things are dull and spirits lowg There is always plenty of work to do: And a ready group that puts it through. In Shorthand Classes, we take dictation, Most of us get it without variation: Mailable letters we turn out with skillg In all transcription, this aim we fulfill. When Bookkeeping class time rolls around, There's new vim and vigor to be found. There are checks to write and columns to add, And when books balance everyone's glad. Our typing period comes the last, Where we build speed that is very fast. Manuscripts, letters or tabulation Is all set up without hesitation. And in the years that are to be, Each one will cherish in memory The days of secretarial work, Which no one ever tried to shirk.

We take advantage of this space to review our year's social activities: the scholastic achievements are, of course, taken for granted. With our mothers as sponsors and chaperons, we undertook the pleasant task of raising the funds for the annual Banquet and Prom, honoring the Seniors. This was accomplished by a series of dances and entertainments, which were well attended by the high school students and others, interested in the welfare of the school. At the beginning of the school year, we held our dances in the high school auditorium: but these were later transferred to the Knights of Columbus ball room, through the kindness of that benevolent organization. A card party at the 'Science Hall and later a rummage sale at the Reno Post, both conducted by the Junior Mothers, were very successful. As a special incentive for increased piety during the holy season of Lent, we procured the film The King of Kings which was shown in the K. of C. auditorium. Toward the close of the school year, the entire class engaged in the production of a series of plays which were presented in the Little Theatre. We wish to extend our most sincere thanks to our Pastor, Rev. Father Leonard, and to his Assistants for their kindly interest: to the Sisters who gave their time and service to us: to our good mothers who conducted and chaperoned our affairs: to the Knights of Columbus for their generosity in giving us access to all the facilities of their building at any time, and finally, to the high school students who supported us so loyally. May God bless these our benefactors and make us always truly grateful. THE JUNIOR CLASS. Indian Summer Have you euer wondered why, When Winter's on its way, Indian Summer comes to us For a brief unwelcome stay? Why must we be reminded Of what has passed away - Those pleasant summer days and nights, Those carefree days of play? But still we should be grateful For these few days of bliss, Ere Mother Nature greets the earthg With kind but frosty kiss. REGINA HOUGHTON. .. 44 - ES CLASS MORE AND FRESHMAN HO SOP THE ANNUNCIATA' BASKETBALL T. JOE basketball team followed up a very lean year with a tremendously successful one. The 1940 squad, Hve of which were sophomores, won 14 and lost 8 for a percentage of .636. This year's quintet was led by Captain Jack Smith who completed his fourth year of varsity competition in March. A very familiar name was missing from this year's schedule, St. Basil of Dushore. They had been our opening opponent for several years. St. Joe opened up with three consecutive road games. We travelled first to Renovo and gave the Railroaders a ball game which they will never forget: but we came out on the short end of a 43-40 score. Paul Moore, colored Soph- omore, played his first game for St. Joe and led the team in scoring with 13 points from a guard position. The Jackets lost their second game to ,Lewis- burg, 33-23 at Lewisburg. Their third straight loss came at the hands of a sharp-shooting Harrisburg Catholic five, 37-24. St. Joe then stepped into the win column for the flrst time this year with a rather decisive victory over a good Alumni team, 54-40. In this game, Moore set a high scoring record for future St. Joe players to shoot at by tallying 27 points. After the Christmas holidays were a thing of the past, St. Joe took on powerful Williamsport High in a low- scoring, close-guarding tussle which was eventually won by the Millionaires. 20-14. Next, St. Joe travelled to Jersey Shore and set back the Orange and Black, 36-28. This was the first time a St. Joe team was able to come through with a victory on the Jersey Shore court since 1935 when Nau, Richardson, Brink, and Company came through with a 24-14 win. Canton was the next victim to invade the Seminary floor and they went down to a 35-19 defeat at the hands of a rejuvenated St. Joe team. The Cath- olic five held an 18-6 lead at one stage of the game. Blowing an early 10-2 lead. St. Joe lost a hairline decision to South Williamsport, 30-28, in a fast, exciting fracas. They went down to defeat, again, at the hands of a strong Coal Township team, 37-27, on the Purple Demons' floor. The very next night the Pursellites started on a winning streak which extended through seven games before they met defeat by the same Coal Township team 30-21. Victims of this 7-game assault were Troy, Jersey Shore, St. Mary's of Wilkes-Barre. Renovo, Canton, and Lock Haven who went down twice. The Jackets then avenged their defeat suffered at Harrisburg by beating the down-state boys on the home court, 36-33 with Moore, Russell, and Smith scoring all but two of the points. Russell was the hot-man of the evening at Troy when he scored 15 points to lead the attack on a 46-24 victory. South Side won another close- on from us on the Central Avenue floor by the score of 26-24 but it took them an extra period to do it. With the score standing at 24-22, South's favor and 15 seconds to go, Paul Moore sank a field goal from about twenty feet out to keep St. Joe in the game but the Brooklynites were the better team in the over- time. 'Smith played his usual steady game, controlling the ball well and getting it off the backboard. Lewisburg went down to defeat, 39-38, in a fast-moving battle at Seminary. The Green Dragons held a six-point lead with but two minutes left to play when Al Russell Went on a scoring spree cutting the lead down to nothing. In a post-season game, St. Joe beat Northumberland of the Susquehanna League, 28-20. Paul Moore led the team in scoring with 226 points, followed by Al Rus- sell with 167 and Jack Smith with 166. The others ranked in the order named: Pete Dolan, Jim Rogers, Jack Flannery, Bob Mahoney, Joe Dolan, Pat Griffin, Jack Wolfe, and Bobby Berkheimer. This year St. Joseph loses Jack Smith, Joe Dolan, and Pat Griiiin through graduation. The loss of Smith will be quite a blow to the team because Jack was one of the best basketball players St. Joe has had in recent years: but with the material that is left over Sam Pursell will be able to round out a winning combination.

Although it has only one major sport, Basket- ball, it has gained more fame than some schools which carry all sports. Throughout the State, the name of St. Joe , is brought up whenever good teams are discussed. Much of the credit for this can be attributed to various causes, such as the good sportsmanship displayed by the players representing our school, or by the fine appearance they make on any floor. But all these things reflect back on the person who more or less is responsible for these things - our coach, Sam Pursell. Taking over the coaching job nine years ago, Sam has raised the standard of St. Joseph teams, so that they are second to none. His record is one that any coach in the country would be proud of. Taking boys, who have never played basketball before they entered high school, he has molded from less than twenty boys, combinations equal to any in the State. This is a job that many coaches have not succeeded in doing: but Sam has taken this kind of material year after year and turned out some of the best ball players that ever performed for a high school in this city. The best season of Sam's career was undoubtedly the year 1936-37 when his team won 18 and lost 3. This record can be set as a goal for all teams that will represent our school in the future. It was in this year that the Jackets won the Consolation Trophy in the First Knights of Columbus Invitation Tournament. Many of the boys in our class have played under 'Sam and have learned the game of Basketball from a man who knows how to impart his knowledge of the game to others. They have learned not only basketball as a game, but also fair play and essentials of good sportsmanshsip. Sam is a true leader and it is the sincere wish of the Class of '40, that in the years to come his teams will maintain the high standard of those which he so ably molded during the iirst nine years as coach at St. Joseph's. In victory or in defeat he is always an example of what he stressed most- a true sportsman.

A very sturdy Navy In colors blue and gold: The Army like its enemy, Courageous, brave, and bold. But whether victory crowns cadets, Or midshipmen: each year, These friendly sons of Uncle Sam On gridiron will appear. THOMAS HENRY. Fourth Annual State Catholic l-liqh School Tournament AINT JOE turned out to be one of the strongest offensive teams in the 1940 tournament . . . The Jackets scored 92 points in three games, which was the same total as that of Oil City . . . Al Russell with 29 points, came in second in individual scoring topped only by George Kelley of Oil City who won the laurels with 32 points . . . The best game of the First Round was the contest between Hazleton and Pitt Central. The Centralites won in the last minute 24-23 . . . After defeating the fast stepping Reading quintet in the first round, 41-33, St. Joe was considered a real threat . . . Julius Stalsitz, Allentown's star forward and 1939 scoring champ, started off with a bang by tallying- 12 points against Oil City in the Opening Round: but last year's Champions held the rest of the down-State to the same number of points and the result was a 28-24 Win for the Venango Countians . . . Johnstown started out on the right foot by defeating Harrisburg 27-19 . . . ln the opening game of the Semi-Finals, Johns- town easily subdued Pittsburgh 22-14 . . . The Williamsport-Oil City game was probably the most thrilling of the whole tournament for the St. Joe fol- lowers. Oil City got off to an early lead and kept St. Joe on the run through the rest of the game . . . Russell, Moore, P. Dolan, and Captain Jack Smith did all the St. Joe scoring . . . Kelley led the attack for Oil City with 12 points. . . . In the iinals, St. Joe went down before a Pitt Central team 24-21 . . . Rus- sell and Smith starred for St. Joe . . . Johnstown got off to an early lead, and from then on matched Oil City point for point to take the Championship joust 32-26 . . . St. Joe of Williamsport rolled up the biggest single game score of the Tournament, 41 points against Reading . . . After the championship game, Judge Samuel Humes awarded the trophies, awards, and other prizes . . . The Bishop Hafey Trophy, emblematic of State Catholic Championship, went to Johnstown . . . The Trophy must be won three times for permanent posses- sion . . . The champion Johnstown also received a permanent trophy donated by the Williamsport Council' Knights of Columbus . . . The runner-up trophy went to Oil City . . . The consolidation trophy went to Pitt Central . . . And thus ended the Fourth successful State Catholic High School Tournament. 1 PATRICK GRIFFIN, - 50 - QUTOGRQPHS -.51... as A NNWUNCIIKTA 4 1 ,A m,.1 Jay' l ,J 1 ' 1 f1ZE,':1'iii,s-X.. . , .
