We have spared neither time not energy to present an annual that is both different and challenging. Our work on this annual is but a con- crete preparation, as are all our scholastic and extra-curricular activi- ties, for conquering this world. We dared to be different in journalism: we dare to be different by Chriizimz Living, for we may change the world. In this effort, we present a challenge transmitted by our beloved faculty, retreat masters, classes, athletic directors - a challenge which we will relay to the world, while accepting it ourselves. We fully com- prehend that we must face facts and that fortified by the source of all strength, Christ in the Eucharist, we .rhozzld change the world. And in later years, if We can open this annual in a changed world, a world restored to Christian principles, a world safeguarded with the rosary as its sword and the Blessed Sacrament as its nourishment, and relive the days spent at St. joseph, then our joy and hope in preparing this volume is complete. Acknowledgments are extended to Rev. james Keller from whose book, You Can Change the XVorld, our dynamic theme was cradled. We Can Change The World . . .

St. Joseph Centennial Celebration, 1973 lt is the year 1973, the year of the Centennial celebration of St. joseph parish. Parishioners and alumni have come from all parts of the country to renew old acquaintances and revisit the places of their youth. Twenty-four years have passed since our teen-age class of '49 left the halls of St. joseph and followed their various vocations. For them the Cen- tennial is also a kind of reunion. Let us stroll about the parish grounds and see if we can locate all the alumni of this class. Oh, I see Mr. William Yale is here to partake in the festivities. After getting his start at the Home Dairy, he recently acquired the position of Chief Cook at the Waldorf-Astoria. That man of great distinction, Mr. Manuel Hidalgo, is also on hand. Over night he became the chief executive of the Malleable. He is now thinking of retiring after having earned his first million for the fifth time. The president of the Electricians' Association, Rnrrell Bortufick, and his wife, the former Superintend- ent of Nurses, Swan Kltrhion, have just flown in from Florida. Sitting up with the rest of the clergy are Father Alphonse Verduzco, C.j.S. and Father James Conley. Father Conley has turned traitor and is now pastor of St. Matthew's Church, Zilwaukee. Speaking to Leonard Boenrch, the owner of a magni- ficent tobacco plantation in Virginia, we find his old cronies George Hagen and Joreph Wade. Joseph has recently started his own Poultry Store while George now owns half of the lndiantown area. That eccentric portrait painter, Leo Casarez, can be seen sitting with the attractive matinee idol, John Neuerhurg. John got his start playing opposite Judy Canova. It is indeed a great occasion for Beatrice Vargar and Either Silva who have put aside their research work on their new scientific discovery, l-low to Boil Water With- out Burning lt, so they would be able to attend this celebration. In a far corner, Frances Perez of Fifth Avenue is most likely describing some of her new dress de- signs to Carolyn Rocha and Beatrice Martinez, joint owners of the swanky Petite Dress Shoppeef' Coming down the aisle proudly displaying his gold braid is Admiral William O'Brien with the grocery 20 tycoon Nicholas' Vercio who has just scored again by adding another store to his now famous chain. Bill is home from Annapolis for a few days. just arrived from Wahjemega is Rose Nowaczyle. No, she does not sta there. She is an eminent n n y n n u u psychiatrist and has won wide recognition in that field. John Parrariello, head coach at Notre Dame, says that next year they will not lose a game with Thomas Laun- draff son playing center, land with Johnny's brainsl. They are reminiscing with Jamey Nowaczyk, former star on the Saginaw Bears team. James is giving his pitching arm a well deserved rest. The city's most popular mortician, Edward fDiggerJ Seman just stepped into the refreshment booth accompanied by the noted reporter of the New York Times, Patrick McDonnell. Looking further we came in contact with the new singing sensation, Josephine Ogniranti, who is being featured this week at the Metropolitan Opera with the rhythmic music of Paul Pasternak and his Death Valley Boys'. The first woman Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Josephine Escalera, is seen chatting with Patricia Federico, Dolores Soltyziak, and Joyce Pickelmann who are following in the footsteps of Florence Nightingale. Olympia Sarian, now assistant at St. Mary's Labora- tory is asking Joan and Carmen Hojman all about their homes and families. They just managed to tear them- selves away from their peaceful homelife to attend the Centennial. Number pullease! Oh, it is Mary Naples and Theresa Cierzlak describing their interesting work as telephone operators to Rebecca Villarreal and Mary Dela Cruz who are contented working as secretaries at the City Hall. Going somewhere? Call a Douglas uninsured cab. That is just what Hazen McDonnell and Anthony Katha are saying. They have gone into partnership and with Anthony managing the finances and Hazen's driving ability, they can not miss. Now as the lights grow dimmer, good-byes are said, and plans are made to meet at the next Parish Celebration, the Class of 1949 strolls away contented that the world is changed. Classes . . .

The juniors have rated high in all school activities. The year was still young when the re- sults of the l'.T.O. membership drive found them the victors with 189 per cent. They have also sponsored all the enjoyable movies that were shown during the year be- ginning on Nov. ll and ending on April 28. The MAQQNIZT and Year bool-1 staff were served a grand luncheon by the Alunior girls. The well-chosen decorations as well as the deli- cious menu added to the luncheon. The next higalight of the year was the Year- lwoo'q drive which the Aluniors won by raising 5000, for a tremendous 2-'10 per cent. Queen 'Ioan Alozwiak and King Robert Nellett reigned in all royalties with their court at the Corona- tion.

Fully conscious that school was a serious business they delved into biology, geometry and of course the study of those irregular and difficult Latin verbs. But it was not all work for they did their share in athletics and took part in extra-curricular activities. They worked diligently in the construction of projects and exhibits for the Talent Contest. Sister M. Per- petua was their faculty advisor. Entering their first year in high school, the Freshies encountered strange faces, rooms, teachers, subjects and still stranger customs, such as, different teachers for each class, study periods, activity periods. and prayers before each class. Soon, however, they became accustomed to this new mode of high school life and went about tackling problems in algebra, conjugating and declining in Latin, and learning historical facts. The Freshmen were given a Hnil test on Initiation night by the Seniors. Their fine cooperation won for them the admiration of all the students. Their faculty director was Sister M. Theodosia.

Pointer of the ay On February 1, 2 and 3, the high school students attended their annual retreat. The Retreat Master was Fr. Thomas Abbot, O.P., St. Dominic's Church, De- troit, who punctuated every conference with a boom- ing voice and stressed himself only as the Pointer of the W'ay. Some of the Senior reactions to the retreat were: Father emphasized that it was better not to go to confession at all if we were not sorry for our sins. -joseph Wade This retreat stimulated my thinking and made me see myself just as I really am. - Frances Perez I never realized how important prayer was until this retreat. It really gave me something to think about. - Paul Pasternak Fathers conference on the Mass has given me a much greater appreciation of it. -james Conley Wliat impressed me most was Fathers conference on preparing ourselves for meeting our Creator. - Beatrice Martinez The thing that impressed me most during the re- treat were these remarks: Everybody does it. Be dif- ferent and don't go to hell just because everybody else is going. - Therese Cieszlak Our religion is ours to practice or to neglect. We make the choice. - joan Hoffman Father said that even if the people call us a sissy for saying the Rosary, we should remember we are here to save our soul. - Josephine Ognisanti The Retreat Master explained the importance of the two strongest prayers, the Mass and the Rosary, by showing us their true meaning and value. I liked Father Abbot's common theme used throughout his whole series of talks - We are here to know, love, and serve God in this world and to be happy with Him forever in the next . He brought this in no matter what he had to say. Father Thomas Abbot, insert, stressed the necessity of good confessions at the annual retreat, and certainly no Catholic can instill his faith in others unless his soul is clear. Bollmn: The entire student body kneels for the Pontihcal blessing as the Seniors make their last high school retreat Its fruits will be evidenced in the years to come. -Leonard Boensch - Carolyn Rocha 0 LL-P CHRISTIAN LIVING Il XX I E X I E' X 1 A y 1 l I i Callmlic Antirm bm been the 1fnmi11:z.'ifzg fuclor, which bm' guided lm' fl71'0llgl7 four yearx of active fId7'lfL'iP:lfi07Z in nrgmzizaziom, partiex, CIIIIJI, ufmmativ 1r11Llertf1king.v, :mal all extm-czlrriwflaf' ucrivitief.

The Magnet In T0day's Catholic Press YEARBOOK Picture schedules. impossible deadlines and the never to be forgotten dummy are but a few of the recollections of the once weary yet exultant Yearbook Staff. Under Nicholas Vescios skillful direction a graphic picture of four years of high school memories grew out of mysterious scrawling, brain storms of weary copy writers, the indispensable type-writers, tireless eilorts to decipher the Editors orders, Russell Bostwicks endless cutting of pic- tures, and Sister M. Euphernias guidance in every type of work. The selection of our theme, Vile can change the world, Peace through Christian living , arose from a deep realiza- tion of the worlds drastic need for more Christian living. more Christian action, in order to effect a lasting Christian peace. Joyce Pickelmann, john Neuerberg, Williani Yule and -losephine Escalera sort out pictures to be used on the pages of the annual. Russell Bostwick prepares pictures for the engraver.

During this Diamond jubilee year, St. Joseph High School Glee Club consisted of fifty members after final eliminations under the direction of Sister M. Andrew. This special training received, placed them as an inspiration to the four hundred and forty members of the student body in attendance at the daily Missa Cantata. They stood apart in formal attire at the Pageant October 30 and sang Memories and an appropriate jubilee chorus in thanksgiving. ln November, they were heard over the air on a program given by the Senior girls who composed and dramatized a skit based on the ideals of Christian Family Life. Their starring roles in the Cantata Christmas Through the Ages , brought realism into the per- formance and drew ovations through the special solos. duets, and mixed choral work. The boys sextette was cheerfully received at the February meeting of the Parent-Teacher Organization. On March 18, Monsignor Bolton's Feast Day. 55 girl members sang a parody on Solomon Levi . The boys harmonized two choruses, then all joined in a choral feast day greeting. A part cantilation and part harmonization of the Seven Last Words sung at the Passion Play. Pilate and the Cross, April 9 and 10, and the Tre Ore Service on Good Friday were evidences of further success. All musical activities culminated at the Class Night Exercises.

Al- though the Buccaneers had far from a fruitful season, they were fortunate to be led by a group of fine coaches and an active Athletic Association under President Albert Packard. Highlights of the associations activities were their giant Thanksgiving Bingo and their election of l.ettermen's queen, Susan Kushion and attendants, Joyce Pickelmann and joan Galonska. Mr. joseph Bourcier succeeded Mr. joseph Stelter as head football coach. He was assistant coach at St. Andrew the year before and a twelve letterman at SS. Peter and Paul during his prep days. Although having a disappointing season, he infused the boys with a grand spirit. His stern, manly attention to all his boys will not be forgotten. Coach Bourcier was assisted by Mr. Edward Mack, a prominent sport official in the Valley. Mr. Thomas Deprekel returned as head basketball coach. Although his efforts for a championship team were in vain it was to Deprekels credit that goes the late seasons fine showing of the Bucs. Mr. Donald Pieterzak, 115. coached the junior varsity with an outstanding record of 8 wins and 3 defeats. Mr. Lynn McDonnell.

The story of the Buccaneers coached for the second straight year by Mr. Thomas Deprekel, can be accounted to lack of team co-operation. The Deprekel men finally began to click as a smooth outfit, as is evidenced by their last four consecutive victories, but the damage was done, Their sole tournament game, a 41 to 55 loss to Michigan Lutheran Seminary can be definitely blamed to an off night. The Buccaneers lost all six of their games against city competition. ln overall valley competition, the Blue and Gold won 3 and lost 7, but annexed 5 wins as against a single defeat in non-league play. Highlights of the season were the return of Guard john Passariello to eligibility status, the Bucs stunning victory against the powerful Our Lady of Lake Huron aggregation, Thomas Laundra's 24 point splurge against St. Mary, Bay City, and of course, the St. james upset.
