The solemn beauty of our Friday Masses and Communions, the encouraging words of the Brothers when the future looked dark, the murmur of voices in our corridors when school was about to begin-all come back to us with a realism that saddens us when we see that we are about to leave our dear old Alma Mater, perhaps, never to return. However, it is not without a little pride that we realize our much- sought for goal has been attained. We have reached and passed another of life's milestones, and we gratefully thank God for the privilege of having attended this excellent school. 110101:11014101011mini-wif1oio:1n:c:1:o1enj1m1n1c:cn:n:o1c1cnj4r:1:4n:o:1n11n14ni1nj1 DEDICATION WGS?

Brother HENRY B. FUMEAUX IN APPRECIATION To you, dear principal, we, the graduates of '45 owe a debt of gratitude that is beyond the power of words to express. Throughout the school year your fatherly advice and patient council has given many an anguished student great peace of mind. Truly, it is with a deep sense of respect, and gratitude deeply imprinted in our hearts that we take leave of you, Bro. Henry B. Fumeaux. 1-1:3111-11iv1.,1i 2-1. :ivan fi- I-xp rg- lu 1 911 4:2 ,run ez.: fs vi ri-ride:-v-1. SALUTATORY atliflkiiit Dear parents, devoted teachers, and kind friends: Another harvest season has come to an end, and we, the reapers have finished with this fruitful field. Some of us have garnered much: we are coming home with full measuresg others of us with less, but each according to the capacity with which nature endowed him. But what- ever the measure of knowledge we have garnered, we have also been awakened to wisdom. We have discovered that Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much, Wisdom is humble that he knows more. To you, beloved parents, our gratitude will grow with the expe- rience that the years will bring, our gratitude for guiding our footsteps to the gates of this field, wherein only the sound and wholesome fruit of knowledge grows. Here to help and endow ourselves to the fullestg here, where Time's hourglass runs with gold dust. And you, devoted teachers who met us at the gate and took us by the hand, you who pointed out to us the beauty of your fields, and awakened our desire for its fruit, Who helped us when the load we carried taxed our strength, who taught us wisdom by the example of your very lives, your images are etched upon our memories forever. We are those of whom the poet speaks when he says: They whom the truth and wisdom guide, can gather honey from a weed. Tomorrow, we may have other teachers, but, may we follow them with the blind trust we followed you? Or will our minds subconsciously bring up your voice? So now we cross the road and enter another field to garner there. Mayhap, a much larger field, though not so carefully tended as the one we came from. But now we enter as experienced harvesters, as those who have learned to know the sound and wholesome fruit from that which is better left alone. Perhaps we m.ay be of help to a companion by our side, one who was not so fortunate as we in his early training. Perhaps we may have the power to make him discern the good from the doubtful. And finally, when, we leave the fields behind us, and go forth with our own seeds to plant and our own strength to meet whatever fortunes life and war may bring us, our yesterdays will follow us, they will constitute our lives, and will give character and force and meaning to our future deeds. ri4ri4rj1n1ebi1 'J' E I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 1:4 mi:-je-is 1014 1010 014-1. if-ioioicviarif-:ni 101014-in -10:1 ini.

Anxiously, we have long awaited the arrival of this moment, and often We have attempted to anticipate what our feelings would be when this event would finally come. And now, that it is a reality, we find that our happiness is not without sorrow as we realize that the hour of farewell has also come. The best sources of our fondest memories are filled in our school days, during the years when we came to love and cherish our school, our teachers, and companions, and all the colorful surroundings of our youth. These precious memories generate a deep regret at the prospect of becoming suddenly separated from them. And to you, our faithful teachers, how can we express our grati- tude in appreciation of your valuable services? Our lips cannot express all the gratitude our hearts feel, and yet, not finding any other method of doing so, we appeal to words. We thank you for all the treasures you have stored into our immature mindsg for your good example of piety and patience, and, above all, for the way you have zealously en- deavored to prepare us for a fruitful existence in a better world of tomorrow. Our triumph here tonight could not have been made possible had it not been for the sacrifices of you, our beloved parents. When times seemed darkest and our goal far away, it was your patience, your understanding, and your consolation that enabled us to go on. Tonight, while we are graduating here, elsewhere around the world, former graduates and fellow students are endangering their lives on the many battlefronts. In a short time, many of us will be called upon to join in the ranks of fighting fellow-countrymen, and some of us may even be called upon to make the supreme sacrifice for his God and country. For whatever God has willed, we are confident that our steps will be brightened by the light generated by these Catholic principles embedded in our hearts during these last four years, so that when we have crossed the wide expanse, we may give our report: O Captain! my Captain!! our fearful trip is done, The ship has weathered every rock, the prize we sought is won. nioioioioioi 10203 14rioi1ri011r1o1nio:r:4x1oioiax1cxinx11n1eri4nicri4:i4:i1 bjoiojoioiojf oioiuloiuioiu 101 l1cljcnjcnIcnj1xj4xi1ni1b14xjfrj1 fx -X 1 I i u l V w W I X w I x P X r V I f l ' i f 1 i 1 i 5 Y I I 1 V I L HALL OF FAME ROBERTO SANCHEZ LARRY L.

Not dry-eyed, do we remember the many joys, pains, and heartaches which we have undergone. Humorously do we recall the way we entered the awsome portals of our high school building, not a little frightened at what lay ahead. We found it hard to realize that we were high school students. This class of '45 has been one of the leaders in sports. About half of the class made the football and basketball teams. In both basketball and softball we emerged victorious in the intramural leagues. Neither have we neglected our religious duties. We are proud to say that there has been 100 W attendance at the First Friday Masses. We are especially grateful for the privilege of having our regular Thursday Confessions and Friday Communions. Our special pamphlet library has given more than one worried Senior plenty of helpful advice. The class has set a record in generosity for the Propagation of the Faith, having a sum of 5190. and an average of 315. per pupil. This is the largest amount and the highest average ever obtained since the school was founded. The intellectual side of the picture, however, has not been forgotten. One third of the class has a 90 W average, or over, in its everyday studies. We owe this fact of the undying perseverance of our beloved teacher Brother Stephen. Today, we have reached our goal, well prepared by those splendid men of God, our teachers, to step into that other sphere called life. Some of us will take up studies in college, others will go into business for themselves. But, wherever we go, their teachings shall go with us, guiding our rather falteringl steps for the rest of our lives. h21lv:nlxi41oio3l4l1 s:l4111a14vi4l1xi1ri1i1ni11oi1rir21c1o: rjoj's11xjoj1xjo:o1o:1n1ojen1oicnj1nj4x1n Q 2. ni0joi0j1vj1rj0i1nI0j1xi1rj0j0i1r1vnioQ vioinioioiorioi-0101014 CLASS LOG CLASS MOTTO . .

Let us take a place among the crowed streets of Laredo in the year 1975 as this gay metropolis begins its fiftieth Washington's Birthday Celebration. As we shoulder our way to the curb, we make the mistake of nudging a six foot athlete who eyes us with the disdain and contempt of the mighty. T'is none other than the track coach of Texas A 8z M, Roberto Sanchez, who is here to scout the entries of the Border Olympics. By his side stands an even more imposing figure, the owner of the new Super-Slumber Hotel. We used to call him Flaco but, now, it is always Mr. De la Garza. While we watch them, a third person approaches, gardenia in buttonhole and official ribbon on lapel mark him as another distinguished visitor. An- tioco Gonzalez tells them he has flown down from the Mayo Clinics where he heads the staff of brain surgeons. The parade begins. The first car bears the mayors of the sister cities, the Honorable Rafael Longoria of Nuevo Laredo and the Honor- able Walter W. Stein, Jr., of Laredo, Texas. Both are deliriously ac- claimed by the crowd. Two other important personages share the official car with the mayors. One is Major General Jack Judson, C. O. of the immense Laredo Army Air Field, who seems quite uncomfortable off his scooter, and the other is the Honorable Roberto Brinkman, gov- ernor elect for the state of Mississippi, whose million dollar smile has made him a political success. As the roar subsides, a float rounds the comer and hoves into view. From its gaudy colors and shrieking band we know it to be that of Loos Yer Mind, Greater Hysterical Shows, owned and operated by Homero Acevedo. In the center of the float rides the popular movie star, Edward R. Leyendecker, Jr., whose portrayal of Farry in the show Nightmares in Basutoland won him the Academy Award for the year's most gruesome actor. As float succeeds float and band follows band, in an hour long procession, one outstanding exposition attracts the attention of all. It is a scientific explanation of the latest development in radar, and the research technician in charge is Larry L. Huggins, the author of a re- cently published book entitled Black and Blue, or, How not to experi- ment with T N T. The parade over we direct our steps to a nearby refreshment counter where we hear a heated debate over the international bridge that was recently built by Charles Zufiiga, the famous architect. Why, it sways with every drunk that crosses it, argues Homero Acevedo. Sure, that's sympathetic vibrations, retorts Carlos Bena- vides in support of his old pal. Benny has made a name for himself also. His blooded cattle have won blue ribbons from coast to coast. Since his words carry weight and he, a revolver, the subject is dropped and we return to 1945. ri 11 10101111 1 1:1014 2010141211: MAROON 8: WHITE STAFF LARRY L.

Just one short year ago he was present with his class- mates at those final graduation exercises which bid farewell to the Alma Mater. He was very energetic and studious, and had planned to attend Dayton Univer- sity. Jesus Chapa Badillo has gone to join the ranks of the heroes who have made the supreme sacrifice in this great world conflict. We shall always remember Jesus for his inspiring ideals and his energetic nature. When his country called, he quickly answered. Wounded in the European theater of operations, he met his death in Novem- ber of last year. Salvador Mascorro is deadg the me- mory of his unselfish sacrifice for us and his country will long remain with us. He quickly answered the call to arms when his country called. Salvador was a quiet boy, a good worker and studious. He met death on the European battlefront. rioioloioioi-011 0 L Dll Ogg iybf fi x-N .ff f' Vx - - iv v ,W U I ULX lib OF ' Q 1x'4Q,l,to O lied Ylfflffllvifill 6 er N32 6 +15 N :.'

Though handicapped by our small number, we showed great enthusiasm in all extra activities and sports. Paul Seitz, captain of the A team of basketball, was chosen from among us, giving us an air of superiority over our old rivals, the Seniors. Sports have been, perhaps, the most enthusiastically received of all school activities by our class. In the intramural basketball league, with a small team of five, we fought our way to the first place and yielded only to the league winning Seniors. However, in a class to class game, we defeated the Seniors once, but bowed to them in a second game. Our religious duties have by no means been opaqued by sports or other school activities. We have taken major interest in them and put to practice all the teachings :we have received. For this and for the pamphlet library which we so greatly treasure we wish to thank, especially, Bro. Stephen, our home-room teacher. We sincerely thank our teachers for their patience towards us throughout the year. We also wish all the luck to the graduating Seniors in their future accomplishments.

We had already had some experiences in high school in our Freshman year, and we knew that the subjects we were about to take would be necessary in life. We were told that all the subjects would be hard, especially geometry, but we passed it with flying colors with the help of our teacher, Brother Xavier. We started strong in number and full of will power to study, but in the first semester, we had to say goodby to some of our comrades who couldn't make the grade, and welcome some others who wished to try. For the Propagation of the Faith we gave generously and cheer- fully because we kndw what good our money does. We were very few in number but we gave more than S75.00, an average of about 56.00 per pupil. We had, also, a 100 W membership for the Red Cross. For the football team our class produced Felipe Luna, the center, well known for his 90 yard run after intercepting a pass by the opposite team. Felipe Luna also played on the school basketball team. The class elected the following officers: President ccrr rrrr or Edward Talamas Vice-President ccccc.c Raymond Lozano Secretary rcrc . S Felipe Luna Treasurer rrrr.. ,,.r M Alfred Renteria The class officers proved very successful in every attempt. Now, as the end of the year is in sight, we all look back and think of all the pleasures and hardships that most of us have endured. And so, we thank all the brothers, especially Bro. James, our home teacher, without whose guidance and patience we would have never been able to overcome our difficulties.

We are now high school students. The year now' drawing to a close, we find ourselves far beyond the dividing line which marked our degree of learning as we emerged from the grammar grades. Some of us had a trying time in understand- ing that vacations were over and that time for work and eager study had come. When basketball season came, we were ready to meet the chal- lenge of rival grades. Our class also contributed two players to the varsity team, P. Gonzalez and R. Amparan. We collected a total of 5100.00 for the Propagation of the Faith hoping to aid in this way the Christianizing pagan people of today's civilized world, As we finally end the first round in the fight for graduation, we look with longing eyes at next September which will initiate the second round. We take this opportunity to offer our heart-felt thanks to the energetic members of the faculty who so ardently worked to make our Freshman year a time of great activity for the welfare of our body and soul. 1 110101014 li1ii0i1li0lD11li1rio11x:xi01oi1r11l14ni1x11ri1l1exi0i1xil lxlliilnieiielioioioierjoioic 10105111 rjlvjoiojojoioid 1101014 I0 ! a E 3 E ! a ----------------------.U--0----....----------....------....J i v La rf, l . ffggypfhl 1 iff' Wi H I, A ,,Q. , . ,M J app.: V I ifferfo Garclu. , x A .

Months and years come and go and we keep going forward in the development of our God-given faculties. But where are the years of carefreedays? Where are the scenes of happy memory? Gone are they, but with their passing we have learned to love this spot, to cherish the many and soul-satisfying experiences, and to work and play in the spirit of good sportmanship. We wander and wander wherever we will In land afar, o'er plain, mountain and hill, But Wherever we go and whatever we do, The friends of our years will go with us too. Looking back upon our athletic activities, we are a bit proud of the records attained. Under the capable captaincy of Alberto Salinas and his enthusiastic helpers, R. Marcos, H. Garcia, M. Cantu and G. Gonzalez, our scrappy basketball quintet won the Laredo Grammar school trophy. The same fleet-footed and quick-eyed chaps won most of the laurels for the school's B-team. An undefeated season was had by the class team in the basketball and fieldball league. On St. Joseph's Day, our annual track meet, Roberto Marcos, of the junior division, won several firsts and at the same time set new records for different events. All in all, these various activities have been a sort of tonic for our growing bodies. Generosity is one of the outstanding virtues of an American. To the earnest appeals of such organizations as the Red Cross, the Or- phanage and the Missions we responded heartily. Over 25150.00 were reached in the last mentioned. Antonio Moreno stands out among these givers of these freeawill offerings. With what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you. God, in His own good way, showered us with many blessings of a natural and supernatural order. Now, as we are about to bid adieu to our grammar school days, we want to express our sincerest gratitude to our self-sacrificing parents who during all these long years did neither spare time nor money to make our stay at St. Joseph's possible. A word of hearty thanks goes also to all the Brothers who by their wise counsels and patient efforts have led us ever forward along the path that leads to that which is good, true and beautiful. God willing, we hope to return as Freshmen next September. 1. r:o11rjoj1rjo14rieriuj4uj1n1o:oio1evj1nj4 -if -.

Many of last year's classmates and friends are there to meet us but they seem insignificant among the number of new faces that appear. Here are new pupils from Torreon, Veracruz, and Mexico Cityg Bruni, Kingsville and Weslaco, Monterrey and Rio Grande City, can this be St. Joe's or is it Noe's ark? All this is rather bewildering at first but after a brief introduction we are all old friends. Early to bed and early to rise makes one healthy, wealthy, and wise goes the old adage. In our case it has yet to be proveng but, if true, we should all become star athletes and Wall Street tycoons for the amount of early rising we get. The rude awakening takes place at 6:15 and is followed by the most important item on the day's schedule, Holy Mass. We study, go to class, and make ourselves generally disagreeable to teachers just as the other students do but brag of being better sports. This year we furnished captains for both the A and the B teams in basketball, and one of our members broke four records in the St. Joseph's Day field meet. Now that the year draws to a close we wish to thank Brother William, our prefect, for his patience with us and his thoughtful plan- ning of picnics and walks, during the term, nor do we wish to forget any of our teachers who have been ever ready to lend a helping hand in time of need.

The importance of the role that is being played by science in the world today cannot be overestimated. Our very existence depends on it. The history of the world is influenced by it. Each new advance in science is just another step towards a better world tomorrow. The faculty of St. Joseph's Academy realizes the importance of placing a particular stress on this field, so that the student may develop an interest in this fascinating subject. Every year newer and more up-to-date equipment is purchased so that the pupils may keep up with -fthe ever-changing scientific methods. Special instruments have been placed at the disposal of the pupils, so that they may become acquainted with them and have a clearer understanding of the fundamental prin- ciples in science. Imagination and good reasoning powers, which are the two qualities needed in a scientist, are encouraged. This is done by giving manual projects which depend upon a student's ingenuity and resource- fulness, These projects may include an electric motor which really runs, a working model of a steam engine or water wheel, or a paste- board representation of a geometric theorem. Many of the alumni who, have returned for a visit to their old Alma Mater, remark on how these? seemingly insignificant projects have helped in later under- takings. Each new discovery opens tremendous fields of possibilities, each with its own unfinished rainbow. There are countless branches in this fascinating field into which an aspiring young student may delve. Yes, science is a walking giant. St. Joseph's Academy, realizing this, endeavors to do its utmost to stimulate talent found in promising students. ntci-ziaioz-sep: 01011ni1v14v1-xeriwixiuviuri iv :. 1:1 11 1o:o1o14rio1u1n1og4 CHEMISTRY GENERAL SCIENCE vibi1ri1bi0i4bi1vio1l lo LIBRARY Many more pupils availed themselves this year of the library facilities of the Academy. Among the eighth graders, interest in worthwhile reading seems to have been enkindled by Brother Hilde- bert. Seven students deserve special mention in this class. David N. Gillan, Jose Homero Gutierrez, Jack Armstrong, and Louis Avila lead ttheir class in the reading of fiction and biography. The three Taylor Brothers rival for second place. Pupils in this class have understood and tasted the delights found in good books. Father Finn's books Were the most popular with the class. Eddie Wright and Eddie Babun head the seventh grade. Wright is specially interested in fiction while Babun is fascinated by statistics. In the high school, Clarence Haynes, Virgil Plock, Charles N. Fansler, Jr., and A. Mascorro have read not only the required books for their English classes but many more. The following students have assisted Brother Librarian in his work: Virgil Plock, Carlos Benavides, Clarence Haynes, and Vernon Plock.

With shouts of joy, shoulder pads and helmets, spikes and hip pads were taken from the crates where they had been stored three years before. Of course, among those who showed up at practice the first day there was not the ghost of a letterman, but that did not daunt coach or players. It would have been tempting God to have expected to win our first games, but then the ensuing slaughter was more than had been bargained for. Our opponents piled up over 100 points while our .squad crossed the goal line but once. Then the tide turned. The 'mntlers defeated Cotulla's B team in two encounters by decisive scores and proved to themselves that the cards were not stacked. Mirando City had bragged of an unblemished record when she challenged St. Joe's. However, the Antlers had it their way all through the game and emerged with their third win. Then in an afternoon game at Dilly that was played midst Wind, sand and stars the St. Joe's boys battled to a scoreless tie. The final game of the season against the Christen Cubs featured rain in all forms known to the weather man from mist to torrential down pour. In spite of this un- toward circumstance the Antlers swam through to a 3,5 - 6 victory.

Those boys who are unable to participate in interscholastic competition for some reason or other find plenty of opportunity to show their skill for lack of ith in games with players just as green as themselves. As football held full sway up until the Christmas month, intra- murals did not begin until basket-ball season. The intramural basket- ball league ended in a tie between the Juniors and the Seniors when the humble Freshies defeated the Seniors in their last game of the season. To determine the champions for 1945, a post-season game was played between the two upper-class teams and the victory went to the Seniors. The Eighth Grade won the league in the grammar depart- ment with plenty to spare. An annual event which always creates a stir in the placid exist- ence of the Academy is the St. Joseph's field day track meet. The meet of 1945 will go on record as having been one of the most closely contest- ed in the history of St. Joe's. In spite of the superb works of Edward Leyendecker, captain of the Whites, the Maroons emerged the winners of the meet by the very close margin of three points. Pascual Gonzalez took individual honors by carrying off five blue ribbons. Antonio Rios, a midget, broke four records which is in itself a record. rioioioioiui 1101 ri1r10i1li11i1xi0i1x1oi0i0i0i1ri1xZ1bi1bi1 v11x11ri0:01oj1r10i0i011 r1010:0j1nj1xi01o10i1rj01ir11r10j11 xjfxioioioioic 93101011 ....,....-.......-.......,Y - ,-..., . . . ,T W ,. x wwf? 2 N: 1.- ,v,. -. ...aah-...f.....,M A mf Q. ver he aivon Sweef Samui ' whmx Just., BAA LWK IF? ................-1.b..,..

Only three familiar faces appeared among the host of enthusiasts who tried out when practice began on December 12, but their experience and good spirit of the rookies brought the team through one of the most successful seasons of St. Joe's history. The Antlers began their season with two victories, one over the Holding Eagles and the other over the Cotulla Cowboys, but they hit a slump when they dropped four straight in a series that followed the Christmas holidays. One of the highlights of the Antler's basketball season was their trip to Cotulla to play in an invitation tournament. The squad bowed only to Eagle Pass in the tournament finals and Won for themselves second honors. A trip to San Antonio has been the cust- omary curtain ringer for St. Joe's and this year proved no exception. Central Catholic proved much too good a team for their visitors from the border and defeated our boys decisively in two game series, but one scalp from Santone was ours when the Antlers defeated the Yellow iilackets of St. Anthony's.
