.... to a QAllAnt champion op the tRuth who by virtue of his sacred ministry graced the Church with years, teeming with firm and intrepid zeal, we, the seventeenth graduating class, dedicate this Torch. Thirty-one years ago. Father Anthony Majewski envisioned a stronghold of Truth in our community. In the throes of doubt and protest, he set out as the perfect Knight, to realize his vision. Before long, the church and the school build- ings of St. Ladislaus loomed as embattlemcnts of Faith silhouetted against the sky. From the outset, he sought—as Arthur of old—to extend a kindly directive which might best benefit the souls and minds of men. As pastor, in order to develop a strong moral fiber in the parish, he centered his paternal interest on the youth in particular. By meeting their multiple problems and demands through the erection of an elementary school, followed by a two year commercial high school, he laid the foundation for a sound Catholic society. Its permanence was insured by a senior high school, made incumbent by the rapidly rising enrollment. The first class of St. Ladislaus High School seniors graduated in 19 56. Follow- ing the full accreditation secured from the University of Michigan, an advance- ment was made which gave St. Ladislaus the prestige as one of the most repre- sentative in the Archdiocese of Detroit. The fact that as in the days of chivalry, sports, if properly directed, also make for character training, was borne .out in the expansion of the athletic program. The school was entered for competition in major sports in the Catholic League. Though one of the smallest schools in the League, it once rode the crest of a football championship and that of runner-up, several times. At present, the fruits of our pastor’s labors are climaxed in the construction of a permanent church. Already, as it is nearing completion, students are looking forward to the conversion of the former building for gym and auditorium pur- poses. With a program providing the education of the whole man, intellectually, spiritually, socially, and physically, students arc prepared as capable citizens to serve God and country. Truly, of Father Majewski it may be said, that this precious endowment, together with the buildings, serves as a monumental tribute to the fact that his thirty-one years as a key figure in the parish arc a panorama of achievement. 8
