PUB Y The Senior Class 19449 The Marian St. Mary High School nunlnmlun We, the Seniors of Saint Mary High School, knowing that we are a part of the humanity who are trying to win world peace, realize per- haps more than ever before, that the aid and intercession of the one who is Mother of us all is desperately needed. 'It is fitting then, that we turn to Our Lady of Fatima, Queen of Peace, and through her plead for that peace which we all desire. It is she who has shown us the way to obtain peace. Our learning here has been founded on Christian principles. We are happy to know that through this learning we can help to bring... eace fh'C0llfA gkzistian Zducation It is to you, Our Lady of-Fhtima, that we lovingly dedicate this second volume of THE MARIAN. rxf- flfigixi 9.9 'flu 2, V Q '82, 1 in rlixikl .

He is a creature set apart from all the world of sin, to guide us In the game of life and show us the way to win. His fingers are annointed so that they may touch the Host. And bless for the Father and the Son and Holy Ghost. To help us and forgive us when we fall from heaven's grace, To marry us, baptize us, and protect our resting place. The priest is one who gladly gives his life for you and me, That we may share the golden joy of God's eternity. No truer words can be spoken about the priests associated with ,he work of Saint lary School than what 1s,sa1d above. They are expending their time and energy, yes, their very lives, to 'teach us and guide us in the way of life. Monsignor Meyer,!ather Soda- wasser, Father Ziegler, and Father Beckert are respected and rev- ered ln their communities because they live the principles which they preach and teach to us. We, the members of the Senior Class, are thankful to God that He has inspired them to dedicate their lives for the welfare and the care of souls and that they hlve been chosen to guide us. We wish to thank them for their contribution to our spiritual devel- opment, and education in the positions of religious leaders, con- fessnrs, benefacta's, and educators. We promise tinumrememberance in our prayers, begging God that they may be blessed with many more years of unselfish service for God and country.

Yes, it was the third-yearers who led the way for the underclassmen and they in turn learned to follow us. Many were the achievements we attained during this year. Some of us were also found on the Honor Roll. showed our might ln athletics. We football and baseball. Then, too, ing cymbals of the band were found Juniors. We were also represented not all, however. The Junior boys .were well represented in basketball, with the beating drum and the tingl- members from the ranks of the classy in the cheerleading section. lost of the work on the school paper, THE HIGHLINES, represented the talent, ingenuity, and leadership of the Junior class. We elected as our class officers: President, Donald Henohalg Vice- President, Jane Gill, Secretary, Dolores Croatg and Treasurer, Charles Mead, Our class roll underwent many changes during the course of the years and we now number twenty-six. As the months passed and we studied hard at the various subjeots.... Religion, English, Algebralll, Trlg, Typing, Speech, Civics and Econom- ics, we still found time to lend our talent to Pep Assemblies, to par- ticipate in all extra-curricular activities, and to make ourselves as rich in spiritual blessings as possible through the graces of the Vo- cation leek programs, the lisslon, and all the other spiritual programs outlined for us. Highlighting our list of social achievements was the Junior-Senior, night of nights, the Prom. Of course we worked hard on our fund rais- ing projects, which were many and varied, but these effu ts were all to us worthwhile amid the beauty, glamour, and joy of the long anticipated event. What the year 1950 holds for us no one knows, but God willing, even though faces, appearances, mannerlsms may change, the innocence, abil- ity, and integrity of ou Seniors-to-be will ever remain.

And awakened we were when we returned to school this fall to a full schedule of difficult tasks in the form of new and perplexing subjects. It did not take us long to know that we were no longer considered to be 'the younger set' at Saint lary's. We were expected to know our way a- round by now! When it came to activities, the sophomores were always there to do a good share. Our boys were active in the athletic program, and will not have difficulty finding places among the front ranks in the next season or seasons. le had fun sponsoring the annual valentine party, and when it came to entertaining, we were right there with a good time for all, especially ourselves. At present our roll call is twenty-seven. The class officers were: President, Patricia Warner, Vice-President, Jim Arthursg Secretary, Aina Savage, and Treasurer, Cecil Hoffman. This year when the school needed new cheerleaders to help the boys a b1t.on their way to victory, naturally they thought of the sophomores, a more talented class they could not find, and chose Janet Wilschultz, Peggy Nolan, and Patricia Warner for the honors. They, with the help of Jane Gill and Jackie Morgan,d1d a very fine job. Now that we have reacknd the half-way mark in our high school work we see ahead of us many interesting and worth-while things to be done... the job of being juniors, sponsoring the Prom and Banquet, the job of hr ing seniors, and graduating! We shall expect, of course, rough sailing at times, but we know that wratever others have done, so can we do also and so we shall take events as they come and do the best we can with a great deal of help from the faculty.

Edward Dover, an old friend and playmate sweetheart whom she has not seen for eight years, is to pilot the new yacht across the bay on its first voyage. Edward knows nothing about yachting and detests the ocean. When he arrives he is mistaken for a caterer whom they are expecting to serve at a dinner party in the evening. Because of his interest in Jeanette and his horror for the water, he does not reveal his true identity. Edward is aided in the plot by a yachtsman, David Kern. David is mistaken for Edward by Frances Marie and before he can ex- plain, the real Edward prevails upon him to assume his name and sail the yacht. l e climax comes when David learns of the engagement of Frances to Edward. The true identity of both is revealed and Frances llarie and her friends are shocked at the discovery. After much explaining, the men clear themselves and win the girls with father's blessing.
