SX 1 Mr. Charles I. Bunhage Perhaps fhe layman who is mosf asso- ciafed in our minds wifh fhe Prep, is MR. CHARLES J. BONHAGE. For fhe pasf 35 years, Preppers have come 'ro regard his friendly, Whaf can l do for you? as an expecfed welcome upon enfering his office. Mr. Bonhage has handled fhis difficulf and offen fhankless job wifh a devofion equalled only by his love for 'rhe Prep ifself. All of us, affer our long asso- ciafion wifh him, have realized fhe mag- nefic influence of his characfer and per- sonalify. We will never forgef fhis man nor will we ever underesfimafe fhe parf he has played in our lives. Mr. Iohn A. Donahue From fhe firsf day we mef MR. JOHN DONAHOE, we have learned fo appreci- afe more and more fhe qualifies fhaf have immorfalizeed him af 'rhe Prep. We ac- cepfed him and his friendly manner even before we came fo know fhe Prep ifself. And we are nof alone, for af one fime or anofher during his exfended career he has been known as coach as well as Physical Direcfor by parficipanfs of every sporf. Thousands of Preppers have 'raken Uncle John fo 'rheir hearfs and confided fheir froubles fo his good iudgmenf. To 'rhese alumni and fo us, fhe seniors, Mr. Dona- hoe will always remain a symbol, an un- dying parf of fhe Prep fradifion. ATR Mr. loseph A. Mattern MR. JOSEPH MATTERN holds a unique place in fhe annals of Prep hisfory. Since his arrival in I9I9, he has 'laughf every subiecf on 'rhe school rosfer, wifh fhe ex- cepfion of Biology and Chemisfry. This disfinguished educafor has won fhe spon- faneous esfeem of our graduafing class. Besides having fhoroughly drilled us in fhe essenfials of Lafin and German, Mr. Maf- fern has efchecl deep impressions of loy- alfy and dignify which will remain wifh us long affer fhe frials of Cicero have faded from our minds. This he sef ouf fo do, and fo his efernal credif, fhis he has done. f. I T0 OUR ULD GUARD v i .L 'K . 4 Mr. Iohn L. Himes ln MR. JOHN L. HIMES we find a real friend and a man fruly devofed fo his chosen profession. Since his firsf Good morning, boys! af fhe Prep in l923, Mr. Himes has shown fime and fime again The consuming fire which drives him in his efforfs fo insfill knowledge and high ideals info our dense and offen uncooperafive heads. Can we ever repay him, moreover, for sacrificing a more affracfive maferial income for fhe sake of moulding fhe lead- ers of fomorrow? His unselfish affifude and his fafherly assisfance have leff a deep and lasfing impression upon our hearfs. Mr. I. Gordon Wright Wifh fhe words, in fhe famous case of Brown vs. Maryland, our freshman ears perked up, for anofher one of MR. J. GORDON WRlGHT's hisfory classses had begun. How well we remember fhe fomb of King Tuf and fhe law cases we fried in class. And could we ever forgef fhe friendly smile and warm personalify of Mr. Wrighf? His wiffy remarks and devofed aid assisfed us fhrough our difficulf firsf year. We shall carry many fond mem- ories wifh us when we leave fhe Prep in June, and no small parf of fhem will be of fhis amiable sfafesman, Mr. J.

Already his You owe me time has become a famous byword in these hallowed halls. Father entered the Society in I942. Before that he made his home in Pittston, Pa., where he attended Sl. John's. This energetic Father not only has shown an interest in scholastic endeavors but has lent his wholehearled support to sports in which he demands the highest qualify of sports- manship. By his friendly and helpful attitude toward the sludenls, Father has gained our utmost admiration and sincere friend- ship. DISCIPLINE , s,,1 4 Lett: . . . and I want to see you out there cheering!

These Marian devotions have been faithfully practiced and zealously preached by the Society of Jesus ever since Mary's apparition to St. Ignatius at Montserrat. Throughout this centennial year, therefore, following the counsels of Pius IX and Pius XII, we, the faculty of St. Joseph's Prep, rededicate ourselves and fervently pledge our Masses and Holy Communion, our Sodalities, and Spiritual Exercises, sermons and classes, rosaries and prayers, Quarterly and Yearbook as spiritual gems in the radiant crown of our Heavenly Queen.

Swimming- Khanna: 'Ihr' SPIIIHS The HAIL MARY is the prayer always heard in the Crimson and Gray PRAYER-HUDDLES. This placing of hand upon hand sym- bolizes more than a bond of team unity, more than a promise of victory to one another. Like the Miraculous Medal worn by the players, this short prayer is an outward sign of their heartfelt dedication to Mary, it is the confident pledge of a devoted son in the loving protection of his Mother. Most important of all, the prayer-huddle is a constant reminder to player and fan alike that Mary watches over and blesses with her motherly smile every hard-fought and enioyable sport event at the Prep - For my delight is to be among the children of men. While highlighting the players' part in Marian Devotion, we must not overlook our athletic directors and coaches who have so successfully carried out their weighty responsibilities. These are the men who have formed the sound minds and bodies of our teams, who have improved by their own example the good sportsmanship traditional at Prep, who have instilled the spirited loyalty to school, to one another, and to Mary, their Queen and Patroness. f, lm lvf, W J, 4 ,ff f fs'. 1 f 'n V701 W W Mau v y, f . we x 'C'- an ns. -'vxangp Ar-'wnvm' he 'Q fl fn-B K a , :iw ' ,, -np., H., MA-ww,,.Mw., mum-Q-. ....-w......4- fv- N .- ,,,,,,-sf ...

So, a lilfle lougher and a liffle wiser, fhe Prep slowly walked off fhe field, I9-O losers. ln fhe only Friday game on fhe schedule, Sf. Joe's challenged G. A., fhe lnferac champs.

This year was no exceplion. Although we losl' the championship, the team redeemed itself by setting three new school records and by upsetting the Caiholic League Champs in one of the best meets of the season. Having lost Iwo close meets to North Calholic ihe Prep mermen were determined to show 'the Falcons that we could do it. And so we did. In the third meet with North, the Prep 'rankmen avenged their former setbacks by upsetting the Champs. Larry Palacio, Tom Burns, and co-capiain Mitch Sukalski turned in brilliant perform- ances. Jack Butler came home with a second place in the individual medley to win the meet for the Preppers. Versatile Dick Flynn, Larry Palacio, and co-captain Lou Schoener added to 'Ihe successful season by ieaming up to sel' a new record of I.45.5 for the I8O yard medley. Palacio also sei records in the IO0 yards breaststroke and individual medley. As in every sport, there are those men without whom the 'Ieam would never have reached its great success. Such seniors as Don Schmidt and Frank Piizenmayer and underclassmen as Brian McHugh, John McGinley, Dick Scanlon, Mike O'Boyle, AI Walker, Don Flynn, Joe OH, Drew Casani, Carl Reilly and Bob Matthews were indis- pensable. AI' the end of the season fhe Stiles Slreeters occupied second place in +he Catho- lic League and had complied the terrific record of nine wins and two defeats. This record spells high hopes for the future. The five graduating mermen 'Feel sure that with the coaching of Mr. Macionis, next year's Iankmen will regain both the Catholic and City Crowns for the Prep. VARSITY SWIMMERS, lst Row: Mgr.

Those are the unceasing shouts ot a tormer great rower himself and now the coach ot the Prep crew, Jim Manning. The crew spirit has really caught on around old St. Joe's and under the watchful eye and guidance of a man like Jim, and also the renowned Jack Kelly, Jr., there seems to be great things in store tor our team. For the tirst time in three years, a crew will race on the Schuylkill tor the Prep. But it's only the beginning ot a new era, as it were, tor the school and tor coming Preppers. The squad, although new at the game, has been earnestly training and working out at the Vesper Boat Club and trom the way things look now, they won't have any trouble placing high in every race. The Stotes- bury race, and the Schoolboy Regatta are only two meets in which the Crimson and Gray will show their true fight. With Hue renewal of iraclr afier an absence of several years, a surprisingly large number of pros- pecfs turned oul 'For Fall practice. The diligeni' +raining on Hue Huird floor and on Hue roof, under Hue careful observation of Hueir coach, Mr. John Donoluoe, prepared Hue team for Hue lnquirer Tournament.

Queen conceived without original sin, Queen of the most Holy Rosary, Queen of Peace . . . pray for us. With these responses to Mary's Litany, we seniors began our last May Devotions at the Prep. Each day as we sang the hymns and listened to our classmates deliver their talks in praise of Mary's Immacu- late Conception, we realized that someday we might be called to the defense of Our Blessed Mother and the Church against the atheistic Red doctrine now poisoning the minds of nations. We felt so unequal to the task, and yet not unprepared. For with the aid of our K.B.S. Masses, and Holy Communion, Religion classes, spiritual and study guidance, retreats, First Friday and May devotions -- we have put on the helmet of salvation, the sword of the spirit, and the armor of God. Fortified with this training in our Faith and sanctified by its count- less graces, we, the graduates of the Marian Year, offer to our Heavenly Mother this petition: Preserve our minds and our bodies, O Mary, as your Holy Temples, and sanctify our hearts as the shrines of your daily devotion. MR. ALOYSIUS C. GALVIN, S.J. FAVORITE TEACHER MR, PREP OF 1954 AS FRESHMEN June I3, l954. As we pafienfly waif our reward for four years of hard worlc, our fhoughfs wander back. The familiar faces and sounds of familiar names help us fo relive fhe fimes when-. Thaf firsf day was fhe beginning of many enjoyable experi- ences af fhe Prep. Fr. l-lalc sfarfed us off on fhe righf foof by delivering one of his famous refreafs. During fhaf week we became acguainfed wifh fhe school's fradifions and cusfoms. We were fhen infroduced fo Lafin which seemed fo be an insur- mounfable obsfacle fo our unfrained minds. Wifh fhe foofball season came rallies and myfhical rally ficlcefs. The feam foughf hard fhe enfire season and fhe special sfar in fheir crown was fhe 7-6 vic- fory over a powerful Wesf Cafholic eleven. ln November, God called home Mr. Joseph Walsh, a feacher dedicafed fo bofh fhe Prep and ifs sfudenfs. This was fhe year fhaf wifnessed fhe consfruc- fion, desfrucfion, and reconsfrucfion of fhe Radio Room. The Chrisfmas Holidays were iusf fhe calm before fhe sform. l-laving emerged shalcey buf successful from fhe Mid-years, we had fime fo learn fhaf if was fhe Cenfennial Year - one hundred years of Jesuif feaching in Philadelphia. We mar- veled af fhe performance of fhe members of fhe Cape and Sword Dramafic Sociefy as fhey made fhe annual play, Brofher Grchidf' a grand success. We realized fhaf feachers can be acfors when Mr. Barfon showed us how fhe Hlvlerchanf of Venice should be read. On April 27fh fhe Mayor proclaimed Prep Day fhroughouf fhe cify. We considered ourselves luclcy fo enfer in on fhe ground floor of fhese cenfennial celebrafions. Then if was May, fhe monfh of Our Blessed lvlofher, and during her devofions each one of US aslced her help and guidance in fhe forfhcoming Province Examinafions. ln June, much midnighf oil and finger nails were consumed, buf fime heals all wounds and summer broughf welcome resf. AS SUPHUMURES The long probafion period was over and now we were no longer fhe low men on fhe school fofem pole. We were SQPHCDMORES af lasf, fhe second sfep on fhe sfairway fo graduafion, wifh fhe longesf and sfeepesf sfeps yef fo come. Cn Sepfember fhe IOfh we refurned fo school wifh an air of pride and confidence. There were new friends fo be mef and old fo be missed: buf we all fondled loffy aspirafions of fhe year fo come. We were promofed in ofher ways also. No longer did we follow Baculus, fhe Cenfurion, for Julius Caesar now commanded our legions. ln addifion, some of us frudged up fhree flighfs fo Biology class while ofhers learned why so many ancienf Greeks wenf crazy. The Cenfennial Mass ushered in fhe furn of a Prep cenfury and fhe beginning of a new school year. Foofball season came and passed wifh many an excifing game and a few well-deserved vicfories. ln November our Thespian feam fied for fhe cham- pionship in fhe cify one-acf play confesf and shorfly affer fhaf we broke fradifion by holding wifh suc- cess fhe firsf Sophomore l-lop. A Cenfennial Banguef climaxed fhe year and l95l passed away forever. When fhe mid-ferms ended, we found fhaf we were shorf one Soph class: 2-G had disappeared and was never heard from again. l-lomecoming af fhe Bellevue Sfrafford offered us an enjoyable evening, buf greafer enioymenf was experienced when fhe Prep swimming feam surged ifs way fo fhe championship. Une nighf in February, fhe cur- fain rose on fhe Cape and Sword's fine producfion of Green Pasfuresf' Affer fhe unexpecfed holi- day due fo The broken heafing sysfem, fhe days slipped by swiffly and silenfly. Then one day we loolced up from our boolcs and saw fhe ominous fhreaf of finals sfaring us in fhe face. We sfared baclc iusf a liffle harder and soon found ourselves peering over fhe edge of fhaf fhird sfep marlced JUNIORS. onsiueimic u AS IUNIURS There was someThing old missing and someThing new added as we finally began our Tl-HRD YEAR. On opening day our friend and companion Mr. SchmidT died unexpecfedly due To polio. Then The red coaTs had once again reTurned To haunT Phila- delphia by way of The Prep. AfTer The red coaTs reTreaTed To freshman year, we seTTled down To Chemi,sTry, German, and French. IT was fun waTch- ing Those unsuccessful ChemisTry experimenTs aT- TempTed wiTh a sTrange Tawny subsfance ThaT Trickled ouT of The waTer fauceTs. ATTer wading Through Cicero's oraTions we found our near upseT againsT The grid champions of lNlorTh CaTholic a pleasanf diversion. Gur December producTion of Cyrano de Bergerac proved To be a smash hir even Though Roxanne needed a shave. Our bas- keTball Team Turned in Their annual upseT over La Salle To climax a mediocre season. Then an unex- pecfed mid-Term holiday arrived courTesy of a P.T.C. sTrike. When we reTurned, we followed our swimming Team as They came Through wiTh a greaT splash heard around The league To win The CaTholic and Public League Championships. Fr. Graham celebraTed The firsT lvlass in our new STudenT Chapel and we began To Take special noTice of The new Senior Smoking Room. Some even sTarTed To collecT pipes for The big day. IT was coming close. We were almosT Seniors. George Simmons' greaT iob made our Junior Prom aT Whifemarsh a me- morable occasion. Province Exams, reading of marks - we liTTed our heads and felT like men for Snow we were SENIORS. AS SENIURS lT was only yesTerday ThaT our fourfh and final baTTle wiTh The books began. There were in- numerable changes made. FaTher Graham had lefT buT in his place we received an equally capable leader in Fafher Lanahan. Also, FaTher Gilvary re- placed FaTher Mchlicholas as Prefecf of Discipline. The smoking room was moved over To The old fresh- man locker room. The JesuiTs had poured forTh Their knowledge of inTerior decoraTing ThroughouT The school. The Mass of The l-loly GhosT and The reTreaT spir- iTually commenced The year. Gur hard-charging fooTball Team was one which we will alwaysiremem- ber wiTh greaT pride. Led by All-CaTholic Franny Emmissf 1 vis N k ix .lg W ik E ? Ui Meehan and lvl.V.P. George Simmons we broughT home The bacon from GermanTown Academy, ST. Tommy More, and WesT CaTholic, and were The only Team in The league To give ST. James a run for Their money. Through The unfiring work of Mr. Galvin and Mr. Pyne, The Prep's school spiriT rose To greaT heighTs. We're The Solid 700 became our moTTo. LaTin, lv1aTh, and Science - which afTer Three years had cuT our numbers in half- were sTill giving us a hard fighT. BuT who can forgeT The Time one of Mr. lv1cl.aughlin's experimenTs exploded, or The 4:30 composifions for Mr. Devereux? The STudenT Council puT on six of The besT dances The Prep had ever run. Our SodaliTy opened The Marian Year wiTh a day of recollecTion. ln The same monTh The Career Forum helped many of us To deTermine our vocaTions. Mr. Swanick's Fire l-louse Five plus Two gave a wonderful Chrisfmas con- cerT. The ChrisTmas vacaTion broughT noThing buT a lack of sleep and some one hundred and forTy Tired seniors on January 4. The drudgery of The mid-Term exams was relieved by The Homecoming aT The Bellevue-STraTford. The Cape and Sword's School for Scandal received complimenTary words from all. The Senior reTreaT ended LenT, and Fasfer senT us on our final lap, while The hymns and speeches of The May Devo- Tions climaxed our parT in The Marian Year. Final exams and we knew ThaT we had reached The end of The line. Jim Agger's hard work made The Senior Prom one of The besT we have ever had. Then your name was called and you slowly walked up To receive your diploma. Throughouf our four years aT The Prep we were consTanTly being asked: Why did you go To The Prep? When we enTered as freshmen we weren'T sure we knew, buT as Alumni we can say: We wenT To The Prep To receive The besf educaTion a high school can give. And so, To our fellow sTudenTs, our helpful Teachers, our beloved parenTs, and AlmighTy God -we Thank you. , VH 5 am' 59' fr ' 1-31 2 , 5 az, 'nga :Q , -. ,I ,,LQLL,, .V ,Q Sl g ? Q x h , ,.

Ever since 1563, when John Leunis, a Jesuit scholastic, formed his first Sodality at Rome, the Sodalists of Our Lady have dedicated their lives AD JESUM PER MARlAM. During this Marian Year the Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Sodalists have more fervently pledged to Mary the recitation of her Little Office, their days of recollection and weekly meetings, their catechetical instructions, toy and canned-food drives, their campaigns for daily Mass attendance and the daily rosary, in short, each Sodalist is striving by word and example to make Mary better known, loved, and imitated. As in the Sodalities, the Preppers in the periodical and Fr. Pichla's offices, in the Band Room, on the stage and speakers' platform are also sacrificing free time and donating their generous efforts in union with their Morning Offering. These participants, then, are training not only to be leaders in every field, but militant Catholic leaders, spiritually and intellectually equipped, who daily consecrate their prayer, work, and suffering To Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. X Qi xg A ff The Senior Sodality meets with its moderator, Mr. Early, S.J., to discuss practical applications of Marian Devotion. SENIUR SUDALITY Mr. Early, S.J., and the Senior Apostleship of Prayer recite the rosary after school. DPENS MARIAN YEAR AT THE PREP This year's Senior Sodalily under The able direc- lion of Mr. John Early, S.J., has made ifs prime obiec+ive spirifual advancemenf. Group discussions succeeded in breaking down spirifual as well as maferial problems and Eormulafing possible remedies. The observe, iudge, and acl me+hod was applied fo problems al school, in lhe world, and lafer life. During fhe year, 'rhe relreals of Fr. Murray, S.J., proved a greal assef in Eoslering 'rhe Sodali+y's moHo, Ad Jesum per Mariam. I+ was profifable for 'rhe Sodalisls 'I'o learn how lo apply fhe ideals of 'I'he Sodaliiy, noi only for laler life, buf also lo laler life ifself. This year 'rhe semi-annual meelings of The Sodaliiy Moderaiors and Officers of fhe Maryland Province +o discuss soiufions 'ro various Sodalily problems was begun. Work in 'rhe Aposlolic field included 'leaching Cafechism, collecfing slamps, and show- ing slide leclures of fhe Mass and of 'lhe Life of Christ Wilh +he valuable assislance and perse- verence of Mr. Early, S.J., we finally became Sodalisfs in 'rhe 'rruesi' sense of 'rhe word. On Dec. 8th Fr. Pichla distrib- uted Holy Communion fo Senior Sodalisfs in the Chapel. E , , 'Ja .mzzffn mf ...Q .... H-.. .. Mr. Sweeney, S.J., and Junior oflicers draw up plans for daily Mass attendance. lUNl0R SUDALITY The first half of this year was spent lby the Junior Sodalily in selecting new candidates for admission and developing the spiritual life of the individual Sodalists. Although stress will still be given to the spiritual de- velopment of the Sodalisl, the second half of this year will also include lhefperformance of Apostolic works. The current campaign is for attendance al' Mass by a representative of each class in Junior Year. The success of these projects will depend ion the fervor of the Sodalists and the cooperation of theistudents. So far, the year has offered gratifying results and it is hoped that this success and cooperation will con- tinue through the remainder of this term. The Blessed Mother is honored as the Junior Sodality recites Her Little Office. ...S Mr. Ernst enumerates the duties of the Sophomore Sodality in regard to rule 34 The Sophomore Sodality, under 'ihe direciion of Mr. Ernsf, SJ., had ils iirsl' meeiing in Sepiember al which alaoui 45 members were presenl. li was agreed io cui down 'ihe number of Sodaiisis and afier privaie inierviews and a wriH'en 'iesi 'rhe number was reduced 'io 25.

Brennan, S.J., who is truly unparalleled in the dramatic field. The Cape and Sword can certainly attribute its successful year to the labors ot this man. Yet, we must admit that the efforts ot Mr. Alagia, S.J., our assistant moderator, were inestimable. Under the guidance ot these two, the society glided throughone ot its best seasons in a long while. ln February, we reaped the truits our labor, as School tor Scandal, our annual piay, was staged. Let us view tor a moment ouraccomplishments. ln December we invaded Washington gf and lin particularl Gonzaga High. For it was the occasion ot the Maryland One Act Play Contest. The Prep presented The Valiant, a serious emotional drama, which enabted us to bring home a second place tor St. Joe's. We certainly had a lot to be proud ot when we lett the nation's capitol. In regard to our annual play, we can honestly say that it was the most delightful comedy that the Prep has seen in many a moon. As usual, the play was not one which was put on in a minute's notice tor there was much grueling work and many long hours employed in its preparation. Credit is due to Vince Nolan as Sir Peter Teazle, to Jim Kilcoyne, as the Prodigal Brother, and Joe Murphy, as Uncle Oliver, and to all those who so generously donated so much time and ettort to make the production such a success. Yes, who will never forget the scene where Sir Peter unveils the tlirtations ot his wite with another man, and who could torget the daily spats ot Sir Peter and Joe Burns as Lady Teazle. And so the wheels ot the Cape and Sword kept moving, and one more wondertul Thespian Year can be placed in the register at St. Joseph's Prep. 41 , 6 vw' Ls... 4 ff- - 'x Fx wr-'W V f,! fQ.' -I fx. , .f 5 .

STUDENT COUNCIL 9 sun s Five seniors, four juniors, and three sophomores comprise our Student Council of l954 at the Prep. At the end of each year, the faculty nominates a certain number of possible candidates. The entire student body then votes for the boys they want to represent them in the coming year. The senior receiving the greatest number of votes is president of the Council and consequently of the school. Contrary to many schools where the student government is a mere formality, the duties of the Prep's Council cover a wide range. Organization of all Prep dances, intramurals and pep rallies, to say nothing of the most vital task of carrying student complaints to the faculty, are a few of the functions of our Student Council. lt meets weekly under the skillful guidance of its moderator, Father Pichla, S.J. We are proud to say that our Student Council has achieved the ideal relationship between teacher and student. sv u lllg. O.. 0 j 5 , F Q o 2 2 5 . 2 2 s Q 'luuuull ...

Few realize that hours of practiceiand rehearsal are needed to establish such any institution. We trace the band's history back twelve years, to its founding by that outstanding musiciaii, Mr. Benjamin D'Amelio, under whose able direction the band grew to a place of prominehcef on the Philadelphia musical scene. W if ln l950, we, as freshmertfieiarned the secret of a successful band while preparing for our first con- cert. lndividual practices and ensembles followed in monotonous succession as we toiled to perfect the difficult musicalfselectiens. Labor had its re- ward, when the Willis of Saint Joseph's field house echoed with deafening applause. The beginningibf our Sophomore year was greatly saddened by the death of our beloved conductor, Mr. Beniamin D'Amelio, a man whose very presence was an inspiration, whose death was an irreparable loss and, whose memory will always remain in our hearts. Town Hall resounded as the swelling ova- tions of a delighted audience greeted our renditions of Pique Dame, Eileen, and many others. Our junior year was highlighted by our gridiron appearances and a return to Town Hall for our an- nual concert. Now, we, as seniors, with the wealth of musical cognizance which we have obtained from our instructors and conductors, are striving to make our final concert the apex of achievement as a tribute to those who have made available this store- house of cultural knowledge. We hope under Mr. Vita La Monica to set an unparalleled record in musical annals, and we wish to extend to the under- classmen our sincerest wishes for the future success of the band.
