Another outstanding accomplishment was the drive to help tinance the education ofthe Brothers at Catholic University. This campaign, the St. La Salle Auxiliary, collected over S9000 from generous, hard-working St. Joe students. The school reached an amazing percentage ot 150, with the Frosh leading the way.

ning News yearbook competition. The 1953 Star was edged out only very narrowly from first place by Kensington High's publication. However, it did receive a blue ribbon award and the runner-up position. The Editors, Editor-in-Chief Bob Klocke, Literary Editors Bob Collins and Jerry Brunning, along with moderator Brother B. Joseph, have succeeded in adding some forty pages of copy, allowing more detailed coverage of all activities. This year for the first time the Star is being printed by the velvatone process instead ot the traditional letter- press method. With the talents of Art Editors Norb Wrobel and Neil Stievater at hand, increased emphasis has been placed on art work shown throughout the book by symbols carrying out the Marian Year theme. The counter in the school foyer took on the aspects of the Wall Street Stock Exchange as Larry Murray campaigned continuously to make the Star a financial success. Credit tor taking, preparing, compiling and editing the many photographs which comprise the actual substance ot the yearbook goes to senior Bob Klocke, assisted by senior Bob Collins and sophomore Pete Kelly. They have seen to it that each and every point of school life at St. Joe's is 'D A 9724 C ly,,-GMD gf' T-fl 'sf Q X V A1 Men at work! N 0 X , t.
