XAVIERITES OF ' 46 It is nineteen hundred and fifty-four. We find ourselves in the office of the Provincial of the Precious Blood Society. What is that on the desk ? A neatly piled stack of cards? Oh, well, that means nothing to us. But wait, they’re the first appointments for the class that was just ordained last week. That was the old class of St. Joe’s in ’46. Let’s see what’s in store for the new mission¬ aries. Here’s the one for Father Milt Bailor. Oh yes, I remember him. He was quite a “plunger” in football wasn’t he. Look, he is being sent to Petuniaville, Ohio as professor at the operatic school there. Where do you imagine Father Louis Barga will go? Here is his card. Why say, Father Louie is to be the new choir director at St. Joes. He always did like music. I see here that Father Henry Cavanaugh is to be Rector of Brunner- dale Seminary. Hmm, that has a famil¬ iar ring in my ears. Oh well, Father “Cav” should like his new job. Father Louie de Brosse is stationed as pastor down at Urbville, Indiana. By the way, they say he is the only tobacco chewer in the Community. It says here that Father Bob Dick is to go to the Delphi University to take advanced courses in electricity. I al¬ ways thought he was good enough with¬ out higher studies. Father Gates? Oh yes, he was the one who always played the “coronet”. Father Ken is to be sta¬ tioned as assistant pastor down in Dan’lsburgh, Kentucky. That is near his home town. I see here that Father Louie Gelhaus is to take over Sunday duties at Warren, Ohio. I bet those little ones will have a “lipping” good time with Father Louie. Why, do you remember that tiny crea¬ ture in that old class ? I believe his name was Giovannini. Father Pete is sent to the land of his second love, Brooklyn, New York. He is to begin the “Beanie” club for the younger parishoners. He always did enjoy being with little fel¬ lows. The next report here is for Father Higgins. Fr. Bernie is to take up new duties as linguistic side to the Arch¬ bishop of Cincinnati. Father Higgins is also to be the chaplain at the “pick-up and delivery station” union. Father Hunt is to try his hand at a new Negro parish in Cincinnati, Ohio. Father Lang is to be sent to Mexico to teach Spanish at the University there. Father Fred should be right at home at his New York. Why, look here! This next card is for our old friend Fr. George McDevitt. It says here that Fr. George will work as pastor out in North Dakota. Father Pro¬ vincial would also like for him to rebuild the “kiddies” choir. That is just the job for Father “Mac”. I see that Father Jim Miller will be given a leave of ab¬ sence to finish his new book, “How to Throw Curves and Influence People”. Perhaps Fr. Jim will become the beacon of the Community. . It seems that Father A1 Reed will be located in Michigan University to take up higher courses in Chemistry, pre¬ paratory for a teaching assignment. Can you imagine that Father John Ruffing is to be sent to the Preparatory Semin¬ ary at Canton? Fr. John will center his interests on teaching the fiddle. Like¬ wise he is to publish that well known book of his, “Ways and Means of Height”. One member of the newly or¬ dained class is to be transferred to the motherhouse of the Western Province. Father Sutter is to inaugurate the agri¬ cultural program there. Fr. Cy will have to start from scratch to establish a gar¬ den of repute. Young Father Tweedie will be sta¬ tioned as sister’s chaplain at the Salem Heights Motherhouse. Shuffling the cards I see one of the class remaining at St. Joseph’s College to be spiritual di¬ rector, Father Don Vogl. He is also to teach General Understudying. Fr. Don is an expert in the field. Why, here it says that Father Bob Wallace is to assume duties as assistant pastor in the country church parish at Homestead, Penn. Fr. Bob will work among those he knows so well, the hus¬ bandmen of the soil. Father Les Was- inger goes to the Catholic University to pursue a thorough course in General Science. He will also take up the study of health, specializing in the care of the leg muscles, hip muscles and so forth. Father Paul Wohlwend as a student was always ready with a chuckle. Well, now as a priest he will be able to see the robins and sparrows flitting in to an evening’s rest, and then he can smile all he wants. For Father Paul is to take his stand in the little country parish of Ridgebone, Arkansas. Page twenty-nine
