S' Glhd H1yG 1 SEQ The Theme We, the Class of 1944 have chosen as the theme of our Renard, Sir Galahad the knight of the immortal poem by Lord Tennyson. Sir Galahad is the knight and model of purity, the knight and defender of the oppressed, the knight of old who Went in quest of the Holy Grail. As a recompense for his great purity of heart he was rewarded with the vision of the Holy Grail. This vision was not attained except by a steadfast perseverance. This persistency, this divine enthusiasm are evidenced in the words of the poet, All armed, I ride What'er betide Until I find the Holy Grail. We have completed our course of studies within the hallowed precincts of our dear Alma Mater, and like other Galahads We go forth into the thicket of life's perilous ways, encountering the dangers and disappointments of this modern, warftorn world. Yes, pure in heart and noble in spirit we venture out to undertake the quest of the Holy Grail . . . our eternal. salvation. Our kind Pastor, our loved Principal and our teachers sought ever to imprint deeply upon our minds that the spiritual and the intellectual gifts must ennoble our lives. By their kindly advice they urged us ever onward. G just and faithful knight of God! Ride on, the prize is near. With a religious and intellectual training as we have received here at dear St. Mary's, we are able to say with Sir Galahad of old: My strength is as the strength of ten Because my heart is pure.

Mother Theresa of Jesus Gerhardinger Foundress of the Order of the School Sisters of Notre Dame I Dedication We, the Class of Q44 with deepest gratitude dedicate this edition of our yearbook to you, Venerable School Sisters of Notre Dame. You have ever guided us through our scholastic career, here at dear St. Mary's. . . You have devoted your lives to our spiritual and temporal welfare. As Sir Galahad of old persistently sought the Holy Grail and was rewarded with its Holy 'Vision so may you loved teachers, as the faithful followers of the great Master be granted to possess the Beatific Vision in the celestial kingdom which you so justly deserve. To you, we fondly, gratefully dedicate this . . . OUR RENARD. Page 7 Uur Lady The Sweet Madonna Stands guardian of the campus And vigil keeps Of dear St. Mary's. Night and day, As the years roll by She stands waiting . . . Watching For us, her clients . . . Her children. She listens to our tales Of happiness . . . Cut tales of woe. Oh, Sweet Mother, pray for us Now And in the days to come. Protect us With thy mantle of blue. Help us to live Like Jesus Like you . . . Sweet Mother Mary Remember us . . . Always. Page 8 THE PRIEST RT. REV. MONSIGNOR JOHN J. HUMMEL He needs no introduction because he is no stranger. He is Monsignor Hummel and our loved, good friend. No one person upheld and advocated chivalry, the purity and courtesy of knighthood, exemplified in Sir Galahad, as has our Right Reverend Pastor. Eightyfone years of serving God and denying self! A challenging record for any knight! We might call him our spiritual advisor, but we, like him, do not like highfsounding names. He was our spiritual friend, counselor and Father. We like to bridge- the formalities and call him Father, in the truest sense of the word. He was a constant source of strength and security to us. As the poet so aptly describes Galahad, His strength is of ten, because his heart was pure. The Holy Grail he has taught us to seek is perfect Catholicism. Unfailingly, unswervingly, his life has been a challenge for us to follow. Under the blue and white banner of the St. Mary he loves, we have been taught by him to be better Christians, devoted children of Our Blessed Lady, and not only to be good Catholics but to live Catholicism. That'sums up his work-that is the man-Right Rev. Monsignor Hummel, our beloved Pastor. May our Blessed Lady beseech her Divine Son to shower His blessings upon him. We can say no more, let it sufiice, in conclusion, to say-We love him deeply! Page 9 MONSIGNOR HUMMEL His years are full and rounded He sought and would not fail Life's greatest treasure-he won it' Each day he lifts that Holy Grail REV JOSEPH A. BECKER, Principal To no one man do we owe so much as to our beloved Principal, Rev. Father joseph Becker. There has been no day but that he has not had our best interests at heart, no minute of any hour of that day that he has not been with us in spirit. Perhaps, as we leave this our loved Alma Mater, we will feel quite lost with' out him. To him, we may apply the words of Holy Scripture He will be with you at all times. He has sent us out, well armed, in quest of the Holy Grail, whatever that goal in life may be. He has given us the armor, he has given us the weapons and the steed, and of his own rich, practical knowledge many times over. When our Rev. Principal meets his God, he can truthfully say of us, in the words of Sir Galahad, For them I battled till the end, to save them from shame and evil. It is our sincere prayer that our Lord may grant him the Vision of the Holy Grail. It behooves us, to say in closing, that our hearts are overfllling with a deep, satisfying certainty in the knowledge that his has not been a work in vain. His challenge, Know your Religion, will become our weapon because it has been his unstinting, steadfast intention that our lives should be filled with the truths of Christ and with the things of Christ. Yes, Rev. Father Becker has sent us out as other Galahads to conquer self and the wicked world. By living good, holy lives . . . that is the only way we can repay him gratefully . . . that is the only way Rev. Father Becker would want it. We THANK YOU. Page IO Page 1 1 Pep, vigor, action and dynamic intensity. Spice well with a wonderful humor, absorbing enthusiasm and a heady zest for good, clean fun and Catholic Action and you have a personage who, suspiciously enough, resembles our dear pal Father Marx. We must admit that he puts us to shame with his own youthful vim and vigor. Perhaps in remembrance here, we should use stiff, grateful words, but it is quite out of keepf ing with the man himself, so we will drop them. We're going to miss those jokes, those long, ribftickling stories that only he could build up to a masterpiece of suspense with surpassing skill. They say we are quite young, and that the best parts of our lives lie ahead of us, but Father Marx has made these high school years so full and rich with longflived, happy experiences that we won't ever be quite able to forget them or him. A lively spirit of comradeship and camaraderie is what he leaves us and it is .1 great, endearing gift. We cannot wish him anything better than a life full of happiness in serving God. Perhaps his Grail has been sought for and won. If not, let us say, in the words of Tennyson about Sir Galahad, O just and faithful knight of God, ride on! The prize is near. Whenever we think of our dances, basketball games and social events vxe must invariably think of him, for he was so much a part of them. We can truthfully say of Father Marx, that he put the Pep into Pep Meetings. Some writers say that they love to capture the man and picture him as he is. We'd like to have one of them tell how vigorous, how full of dash and cheer our good friend was. We, who came to know him well, marked how the black eyes danced as did the spirit within. And yet there was so much earnestness in his desire that through fun and companionship, we come closer to God and His Blessed Mother. Wherever we go, whatever we do in whatever land we find our' selves, we will remember those happy, wonderful days and the man who made them so-!Father Marx! REV. BENEDICT MARX.

Tribute to Our Parents Mother and Dad! The representatives of God upon earth! Our sweet, loving guardians, directing our footsteps toward our eternal goal-heaven. It is they who gave us life, protected, counseled and educated us. They encouraged us when our steps were faltering, when we were uncertain as to which way to turn, they were at our side. They taught us charity, love of neighbor and cheerful selffsacrifice. To them, we owe our characters. Nothing we can do will ever repay them for their heroic deeds, nothing but deep unfailing love and obedience. Dearest Parents, your loving care and affection will remain with us forever and your kind advice and encouragement will always be our guide in the uncertain future. Our hearts go out to you, dear parents. You have fulfilled your duty as God's representatives conf scientiously, lovingly. For the many long years you have tirelessly labored we extend our deepest gratitude. We fervently hope and ardently pray that you will be amply rewarded, not only in this world, but in the blessed home to come where you will everlastingly be united with Him, whom you have loved and obeyed throughout your years on earth. May God grant you the Vision of the Holy Grail. We thank you, again and again, for everything, and may our lives be your great reward.

We are proud of our Renard of IQ44.M Page 57 'l Sodalit Spiritual . . . active . . . successful. All that, and more, has our Sodality been this year. Inspired by the eager interest of the students, the Sodality pushed onward to new heights of Catholic Action, always keeping before its mind the ultimate goal . . . a deeper knowledge of jesus through a more tender love,of Mary. The spiritual motive of the Sodality was greatly accented, bringing gratifying results in large monthly Communions, a beautiful living rosary and a fruitful contemplative Retreat. Through the Sodality bulletin, posters, clever skits and wellfplanned meetings, interest in the Sodality and its projects was kept alive. Receiving an enthusiastic response, the Rosary Carnf paign, Old Clothes Drive and the Penny for Pamphlets Campaign were brilliant successes. Exhibiting the work of the Sodality, our Sodalists received nationfwide attention by being consistent winners in The Queens Work contests. Climaxed by the solemn May procession and crowning of the Queen,the Sodality year comes to a close. We can proudly say that this year, above all others, we have come infinitely closer to living our motto All for jesus through Mary.

Football , s SL'- Coach Fred uDoug Trish They were the Catholic conference champions. Remember? And the man behind the man behind the ball was Coach Trish. His was the unstinting effort that turned eleven blue and white clad boys into an effective and efficient machine. He was there, behind each play, as unfailingly as if he had stood in the huddle and taken his place in the linefup. He it was, who directed the strategy and devised the tactics. Sometimes he praised, sometimes he advised, sometimes he corrected, and we who saw him before the games, knew that Coach Trish was always worried about how his team would show up. Coach Trish has the qualities of a good coach and he never underrated his opponent. We see the fruits of that caution in the Rict that St. Mziry's was never upset by an opposing team. True, we lost to Two Rivers, but that was no upset. The boys went out there and perhaps they were tired and perhaps it was the weather or they were unfamiliar with their opponents, but we know they fought hard. Coach Trish gave us no excuses, They lost and that was that. There were moments of personal triumph and satisfaction in the uspankingu administered to Appleton and Neenah. We felt happy with him at those times glad that the coach's efforts were awarded and we were plain glad that we could say, i'We come from St. Mziry's. There were scrimmages, practices, long afternoons in rain and wind but that work paid off, in the end, both coach and team. Experience in directing other championship teams stood him in good stead when the chips were down. We cannot think of the IQ43 team without thinking of Coach Trish and the work he did in molding a truly great squad. May the coming years bri'ng the sweet fruits of victory after victory to Our Coach. Page S2 The First Team The 1943 football season will remain long, in the memories of our rooters, as one of the best years in the gridiron history of the school. Wiiaiiing seven and losing one does not adequately represent on paper what happened. The Zephyr gridders went out and buried opposing defenses under an avalanche of 155 points for an average per game count of 22 points while the opposition netted a stingy eight per cent. The Zephyrs of 5417, were tops on those goal line stands. Twice they blanked the invaders completely and a tight defense expanded for only 14 points in the one game they lost. On offense, the Zephyrs had a splendid pair of fleet halfbacks, two running mates who would be described in Big Ten football lingo as skatfbacks. The two, fast traveling ball toters were Harmon McClone and Tom Schipferling. But there was hardly a gridder on the St. Mary team who showed less brilliantly. There was Bob Koser, stalwart defensive mainstay at backing up the line and at knihng through to pinch down an opposing back. There was Dick Geiger, high point man, whose line plunges netted the extra inches or yards that spelled muchfneeded Erst downs. Power and drive that cracked the opposing forward wall were two words synonymous with fullback Geiger. There was Bill Giske, quarterback and the brain behind those long, sustained drives. There were the two Bobs at end, Wessenberg and Verbrick, who gave St. Mary a passing threat and an open style of ballfplaying that was a joy to watch. There was Greg Pauly and Tom Landig, Marv Beachkofske and Bill Stadler, and Elmer Dahl who put the line into the foreground of Zephyr strategy. Yes, it was a team-f in the true sense of the word. High tide was reached when they bowled over Appleton I3 to 7. This was the team that came from behind in the last half to overcome a 7'O deficit and rock Appleton back on its heels. This was the team we remember that afternoon when Schipferling was gone, Geiger was carried off the iield, McClone ran wild and the line held and kept on holding grimly until those final 60 minutes ticked off-ethat sums up the game and the kind of a .team we had. The big, outfoff town squad substituted freely and the Zephyrs had occasion to rely on that slippery backheld and granite line. We seniors of IQ44 would like to leave St. Mary's with that impression of our team. We'll remember how we gloried in those long, sweeping end runs, those breathftaking, shoestring tackles and stiff blocking and some of that brokenffield running that only the '43 team had so beautifully demonstrated. For us, it will be the greatest team in the history of the school. I'd like to leave you with a mental picture of eleven, significantlyfclad blue a11d white gridders who made the 19417, football team, thanks to Coach Trish, oi e of the truly great achievements of the school year and one that will bring a thrilling ting ow ' or to us, as the St. Mary alumni of 144, in the years to come. 9' MA M -4 0 M M THE SQUAD -cgrr'-4 The Second Team Dick Bauer, Wm. Stadler, Marvin Beachkofski, Robert Laux To Coach Trish's second team goes the credit for being the backbone that held the boys together when the chips were down. The reserve strength really came through when the going was rough. With two and even three teams the coach could substitute at will. The team of 1943 was especially strong in backfield material and in the guards and tackle department. His reservists went out and played the brand of football Coach Trish wanted and although injuries have been a hoax in the past, they weren't as much a worry this season. With a line that was two to three men deep, our football team could stand up against the powerhouse squads of Appleton and Neenah and trade them blow for blow and in some cases, substitution for substitution. When the fleet, regular backs came out, when the charging linesmen were laid low or when ends or a quarterback missed their cues, it was the insertion of a secondfstring man that gave that steadying influence to a team that means so much in the final score. Tommy Harmon once gave all the credit for his surpassing runs to a fleet, sub' stitute runningfmate of his, especially in line bucks and off tackle smashes. In the case of 1943's great football team we must give credit where credit is due-to that second and third team, the reserve strength called by sportsmen and commentators everywhere The Unsung Heroes of the Grid' iron.

MARY GAME That dominating, ferocious Appleton High School TERROR football squad was purring like a house kitten and was completely tamed by a hard fighting St. Mary's High School team on Lawrence Col' lege field, Saturday afternoon by a score of Ifl,'7. Meeting an opponent that has more than three times the enrollment in high school than St. Mary's, the Trishmen, and Coach Trish, himself, fully realized the mighty task, they had to perform if they were to come through with a win. The task was big, but the efforts were bigger, and when the affair ended, the football players and the coach of St. Mary High School of Menasha gained a hard, well deserved victory over the sofcalled big city team of Appleton, and difficult as it must have been, forced that powerful team to bow in humilif ating defeat.

Richard Geiger-Dick handled the guard spot on the team with unusual Hnesse for a grid star. A Hne man on rebounds and a steady hard player. Donald Griesbachffxfter joining the squad at midfsemester, Donny soon got in on the swing of things. Robert Koser-Bob will be remembered for' his deadly shooting and incomparable rebound work. Opponents found him a giant on both offense and defense. William Laemmerich4Bill's height and deadly shooting ability have been a great asset to the team. Ralph McCl0ne-A shifty and fast man with a dangerous shooting eye, a hard worker and reliable team player. Mac was rewarded for his ability by being chosen captain of the team. Page 56 jim Murphyf-fjim could be called on to play forward or guard and played the game hard and fast. Gregory Pauly-Greg always has played hard and his best at both football and basketball and was a dependable and systematic ball handler. William Suess4Bill's specialty is a long set shot but he has proven his proficiency at ball handling and smart team play. Robert Verbrick- Sambo distinguished him' self as an excellent fast break man, a smooth player and a hard man to cover. Robert Wesse:iiberg4The agility, speed and all' around team play combined to make Wesse a consistent and heavy scorer at his pivot position and an invaluable team man. William ZelinskifZel's development has been rapid and much is expected of him in his remaining two years. Campion-St. Mary Game Zephyrs Defeat Campion, 28f26 in Overtime Tiltg Wessenberg is Hero as Fans go Hysterical. St. Mary's High School fans nearly took their gymnasium apart brick by brick after their Zephyrs beat Campion High School of Prairie du Chien 28f26 in an exciting overtime tilt. The game had all the elef ments of a basketball thriller-fine play, an oftftied score, and a hurried shot in the closing seconds of the overtime that won the battle and sent the home folks straight up in the air. With a few seconds left to play, Wessenberg grabbed a rebound and swished it in through the hoop. The roar of the crowd almost shook the gym. The Zephyrs handled the ball like seasoned veterans and did a good defensive job of breaking up Campion's plays. Page 57 The rousing and incomparable spirit that backed the winning football and basketball teams during their seasons was generated by the graceful group of Zephyr cheerleaders. Our energetic Father Marii organized the girls into a systematic and inspiring corps. Their job was not easy and the results of their ability will be his' tory in the annals of sport activities of St. Mary. Selffsacrilice and determined practice brought out every ounce of Blue and White enthusiasm in the well num' bered crowds. Hats off to the team that backed our Hghting teams!

Down the street marched a noisy conglomeration com' prising the entire student body of St. Mary High, cheering, carrying signs, tooting horns and demonstrating coldfbloodedly what we were going to do to East De Pere in the football game that night. Father Marx showed us which road to take uptown from the gym and the kids did the rest. We jarred the tellers awake at the First National with Dear Old St. Mary's, and woke the desk sergeant from a noonfday siesta when we thundered down Main Stl eet past the police station. There was a variety of ingenious signs reading like so: If they've got II men and a football we can lick 'em, Bring on East De Pere, the harder they come the harder they fall. Oh, yes . . . The game?

L'Don't Take My Penny was a comedy farce in every sense of the words. Penny, in reality, wasn't a copper of the same name but a moviefstruck young lady with themyou know what ideas about Hollywood. A three 21Ct light comedy is generally conceded to be quick, fast entertainment designed for what the big producers call the uescapist com' plexf' We were carried through each hilarious scene, through the delight' fully amusing love affair of Sally and sober Mark, the hilarious problems of Penny, the acting within the act of Greg and Kerry, and the surprising but happily clinching ending. It was a great play, we loved to give it and we think you enjoyed it. We thought at Hrst there wouldn't be any play-this is war you know. Then Don't Take My Penny came along and we took it up enthusiastically. It was a lot of hard work, a lot of hne fun and a real joy presenting it. We hope we have made for you a living, breathing character of Penny, Sally, Gram and the boys. Comedy seems to be in demand, in vogue in the last two years. People want to laugh. They say you get fat if you do. Don't Take My Penny tipped the scale. It approprif ately topped the school year and brought out some real acting abilityf no Sinatrafcrooners or Boyer romanf tics. We have in mind what one of our capable, bustling directors is thought to have said on being presented a seedy' looking senior for molding into a real article. Said she: Give me a high school senior and I'll make of him an actor, and then she added, quietly with emphasis, or die in the attempt. CP.S.j She didn't die but she's pretty sick.

The able man made every effort to impart some of his ring knowledge to his proteges. The boys on their part put all confidence and trust in their leader because of his interest in their regard. The mittmen were off on a rather slow start this season but their boxing abilities improved with each match. And as time goes on boxing will make a history in the sports annals of St. Mary High.
