iii ,xx LITERARY PROGRAM IN HONOR OF FATHER HAMMES The week ending November ll, 1949, was a very important one for several events of moment were commemorated, First in order of significance and sequence was Reverend Father Hammes' Namesday, in whose honor our little Literary Program was given. St. Theodore is our Pastor's patron, and in keeping with this Carolyn Smith gave a short account of the Life of St, Theodore. The next event was Armistice Day, the day on which the Allies and the Central Powers ceased hostilities in 1918. Many brave young men gave their lives for the freedom which we enjoy. Lastly, November the sixth to the twelfth, was American Education Week. The special theme for this week was NCh1ldren's Rights in American Dgmocracyu. The Freshmen discussed some of these basic rights, The Sophomore Class responded to the Roll Call by quoting from Shakespeare. Nancy Hayes added a touch of humor by the recitation of WHow Moseline counted the Eggsu, The Sophomore girls presented a touching little Playlet-- 'The V1s1onary's Dreamu. CAST Visionary . . Julia Bucci The Blessed Virgin . . Barbara Leavell Guardian Angel . . Rosemary Conner The Angelic Choir . . . Beverly Fettig, Jane Wilson, Jenene Ring and Dorothy Parr The concluding Choruses were NBeautiful Angelu rendered by the First Grade, and WO Gloriosa Vlrglnumn, by the High School. The Playlet was climaxed by a very beautiful tableau. At the conclusion of the program Father Hammes expressed his appreciation for the enthusiastic celebration of his Names- day, noting in particular the splendid turn out for Holy Mass and Holy Communion--and not to be outdone in generosity, de- clared the rest of the day free. And as both Pastor and child- ren experienced the Njoy of givingu, so ended a perfect day. --Carolyn Smith '50
