ROKU 1869, byty polski powstaniec z Warsza- wy, byly student matematyki z Szwaicarii, teolog z Papieskiego Kolegium Polskiego w Rzymie . . . przyi- muje swiecenia kaplanskie. W roku 1869, Papiez Pius IX otrzymuje list z Amery- ki z gorqca prosbq o ksiezy gotowych do poswiecenia sie dla dobra dusz coraz licznieiszych uchodzc6w-Po- lak6w w Stanach Ziednoczonych. A Ojciec sw. poleca rektorowi Kolegium Polskiego odczytaci to wotanie o ratunek z dalekiego i dotgd malo znanego kraiu. Chwila ta stala sie historyczna dla kilku milionowei armii emigrant6w polskich w Ameryce. Ten sam. kt6- ry nie wachal sie, chwycici za bron, aby w Polsce wal- czyci o wolnosci Polak6w, ten sam, kt6ry nie wahal chwycii sie ciezkiei pracy iizycznej aby m6c p6is6 za glosem zamilowania do nauk matematycznych, ten sam, kt6ry poiechal do Rzymu po studia teologiczne, aby p6is6 za glosem powolania Bozego, ten sam mia!- by bye gluchem na S.O.S. swoich rodak6w z poza oceanu? Dabrowski zglosil sie natychmiast. aby otrzy- mai: oierte obiecia parafii - niemieckiei w Ameryce! Gdy nalegal aby pozwolono mu isd za glosem uko- chanych rodak6w wolaiqcych o pomoc duchownq, do- stal paratie - polska, w kt6rei podpalono mu pleba- nie. spalono dom Si6str. a puszczono dymem pozar6w kosci6l. podczas gdy sqsiedni Indianie go jako Oica czcili i kochali. Tu sie pokazala wielkosrf umyslu, sila woli i milosci serca Dqbrowskiego. Iak lekarz genialny, poprzez brud, krew, rope cho- rego widzi czlowieka. kt6rego ratowazi trzeba. tak Da- browski poprzez wady i grzechy swoich Rodakdw wi- dzial te oddziedziczone skarby tysiac-letniei polskiei katolickiei kultury. pogrzebane w ich duszach pod grubq warstwq sumowisk, nagromadzonych przez biede, poniewierke, rozluznienie moralne i krzywdy tak niewoli starej oiczyzny jak i losu uchodzczego w nowei oiczyzny. Dqbrowski zrozumial, ze trzeba Po- lakom gruntownie wyksztalconych i dobrze wychowa- nych ojc6w, matek, ksiezy, nauczycieli, i przewodni- k6w. Tylko wtedy bowiem Polacy w Ameryce mogq sie star? chlubq swego narodu, slawa Kosciola Kato- lickiego i duma Ameryki! Ale skqd wziasci pracowni- k6w dla tei tak waznei pracy wychowawczej? Ks. Dqbrowski w wybitnei mierze mial ceche cha- rakterystyczna dobrego Polaka-Kaiolika: im trudniei- sze zadanie, tym wieksza budzi sie w duszy odwaga. tym wyzsze mestwo, tym silnieisza energia. Tak zro- dzily sie te dwie najwieksze dla historii Polak6w w Ameryce instyiucie, bez kt6rych trudno sobie wyobra- zici los Katolicyzmu iednei piqtej czesci wszystkich ka- tolik6w w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Oto geneza polskiego High School, Kolegium i Se- minarium w Orchard Lake. Instytucia ta wydala w ciagu przeszlo p61 wiekowej pracy okolo pied tysiecy przewodnik6w Polonii Amerykafiskiei. A drugie dzie- lo. przez kt6re Ks. Dqbrowski niemniei stal sie zaslu- zonym, jest sprowadzenie Si6str Felicjanek do Amery- ki, kt6re dzis sq nailicznieiszym Polskim zgromadze- niem poswiecajqcym sie nauczaniu i wychowaniu Po- lonii Amerykafmskiej. Czy mozna mysleci o obecnych osmiu set parafiach polskich, o przeszlo szesciu set polskich szkolach paraiialnych bez owych szesciu licz- nych prowincji Si6str Felicjcmek? Iaki bylby los czterych milion6w Polcrk6w Katolik6w w Ameryce? Icrki bylby los diecezii Amerykahskich o przewazajacym procencie Amerykan6w polskiego po- chodzenia bez owych przyw6dc6w duchownych i swieckich, kt6rzy przesli przez polskie szkoly parafial- ne prowadzone przez Siosiry Felicjanki. kt6rzy sie ksztalcili w polskim High School. Kolegium i Semina- rium? Rzeczywiscie Ks. Dabrowski stal sie w pelnym tego slower znaczeniu Wychowawcq Katolickiei Polonii Amerykafxskiei. Stal sie Dobrodzieiem Kosciola Kato- lickiego w Ameryce, cr wrzeszcie wybii sie na jednego z czolowych Pedagog6w Amerykafmskich. On bowiem praktycznie wskazai iak rozwiazaci je- den z najtrudnieiszych problemciw Socjologii i peda- gogii Amerykaxiskiej: jak wychowywari imigranta, aby umial czerpac? z potr6inego skarbca kulturalnego pol- skiego. katolickiego i amerykafxskiego dla dobra sa- mego emigranta, Kosciola i Ameryki. 1 l -L A if ii 'Til F ,-.a 2 T' '- 'TQ i nf , ' . ,Si . df, -Y'H LWK'-fi Y Z, .f?f'mri.

Yet a school cannot be greater, in any way, than the men who direct it-its president, its deans, its department heads, its board of personnel administration.

He believed that a boy born of Polish parentage on American soil is capable of mastering two languages, acquiring two cultures-the young but promising American and the thousand year old Polish-and uniting these with the priceless treas- ures oi the teachings oi Christ. In this way he becomes a contribut- ing factor to that unique culture of our Land-American versatility. IOSEPH MICHAEL KRYSZTOFIK Chris TRENTON, NEW IERSEY Business Manager President of Sodality, Vice-President of the Art Club ALL, DARK. ATHLETIC, tor four years he has been an outstanding figure in the class. By his remarkable perseverance and diligence in studies, he merited. in the freshman year, the much coveted Academic Trophy and a tour year scholarship. He was espe- cially proiicient in the Polish and Latin languages. This ability gained him an import- ant role in the successiul Polish drama Koledzy , staged in 1941. He was the model student: studious, good-natured, and ever vigilant in not trespassing the rules ol the institution. His height and inherent athletic capabilities earned him the berth ot bas- ketball center. It was altogether appropriate that he among all the others. should have been chosen president of the Sodality. Since he possessed the essential qualities, he was elected vice-president of the Art Club. page twenty STEVEN IOHN LIS Fox ERIE, PENNA. Class Secretary Vice-president of the Mission Society, Vice-president oi the Handicraft Club. U OX will always be remembered tor his heavy wavy hair and tor his six loot three and a half inches, which topped any other in the class. By nature, he was quiet, re- served, but when he spoke, he uttered pithy sayings which were pregnant with mean- ing. Digniiied in bearing, he kept aloof from all under-classmen. In his last two years he presided over the smoker. His demeanor seemed to suit every occasion, and though bashiul, he was considered to be the best dresser in the Prep department. Among his extra-curricular activities, the vice-presidency ol the Mission Society may be listed. Due to his mechanical mind, he was selected the vice-president ot the Handi- craft Club. His ingenuity contributed much to the scenery and stage settings of the annual Prep play. As lar as musical interests were concerned, he had an extreme pen- chant lor lively iazz music. In his last two years. he took some part in athletics. page twenty -One THADDEUS NORBERT MATUSZEWSKI Mates CHICAGO, ILLINOIS Vice-president of Class Vice-president ot Camera Club BROWN-EYED, brown-haired lad, his is marked by an engaging personality. Be- ing extremely tun-loving and happy-go-lucky, he was distinguished as a bon vivant of the Senior Class. A versatile athlete, he engaged. among other sports, in basketball, tennis and swimming. Though not the best behaved oi boys, at all times he possessed a serious side too, as evidenced by his love tor classical music and good books. As to studies, he showed remarkable aptitude tor physics, chemistry and mathe- matics. He managed to glean trom innumerable sources facts of all kinds: so much so that he was regarded as a constructive critic. His extra-curricular activities consisted ot the vice-presidency oi the Camera Club and a regular Contributor to the Lake Ora- cle. He was characterized by energy and vivacity in all activities, curricular and extra- curricular. pclge twenty-two RAPHAEL FRANCIS OBUCHOWSKI Ralph CLEVELAND. OHIO Treasurer ot Class Treasurer oi Camera Club. HE BEST ATHLETE of the class. he was captain ot the basketball team in his junior year.though his favorite sport is baseball. Ralph was known as everybody's friend- treshman, sophomore or junior-he made no distinction. His was a generous nature, and this was exhibited during his career as manager oi the canteen, when he extended more credit to the boys and collected more than any other manager in the history of the school. He liked good music, and was the best dancer in the class. Class work was not neglected by him. tor he was a diligent and an assiduous student. The faculty mem- bers that had taught him, will, no doubt. remember his outstanding caligraphy for many years. He contributed articles to the sports department oi the Lake Oracle and also held the ottice ot Treasurer ol the Camera Club. Ralph will be best remembered in the future lor his athletic achievements at St. Mary's. page twenty-three WALTER IOSEPH REGULA Wally DETROIT. MICHIGAN Sports Manager E WAS OUTSTANDING for two reasons: he had the blondest hair and was the shortest of the Senior Class. He was characterized by a love for orderliness. for his was a neat, precise and effective nature. He applied himself zealously to his studies, and was outstanding in Polish. His facility in this language earned him a starring role as the comedian in the Polish stage production. Koledzy . He was also a camera fiend, having taken more pictures during the four years than any other senior. He played on the basketball team and was appointed manager of high schcoiwspcfrts. While a sopho- more, he had the honor oi serving the professors in the dining hxil. He was foremost in the class as far as soliciting of financial aid for the various school enterprises was concerned. He, undoubtedly, will be greatly missed next year. page twenty-four WALDEMERE BRONISLAUS STRYIEWSKI Streaky DETROIT. MICHIGAN President of Class Associate Editor ol Lake Oracle IS WAS the unique honor oi being the youngest in the class. Though tender in years, his mental capacities outranked those oi boys far older than he. He possessed great proficiency in oratory. both on the stage and the platform. This aided him many times in realizing his never ending original ideas . Woe to the man who dared oppose Streaky in an argument. for his convincing powers were nearly omnipotent. He was a very entensive reader and was considered a dependable authority on historical and literary data.

MICHIGAN Sergeant-at-Arms President of Handicraft Club RT was the only senior who had not gone through the entire four years at St. Mary's. He was a graduate of Henry Ford Trade School, and is now a finished tool and die maker as well as a machinist. He entered St. Mary's in the junior year. His age and experience served to exercise a sensible influence over the wild ideas the class might have had at any time. Though not ranking with the highest scholars, he proved him- self to be both diligent and studious, especially in chemistry. In the annual oratorical contest, he took first place in the class. He was also the president and guiding light of the Handicraft Club. Because of his technical experience and his inventive mind. the Reverend Director of the yearly Prep Play always favored him with the important assignment of electrician and handy man. page twenty-six c '35 - ' .

After several weeks of meekness, due to strange surroundings and homesickness, the class proceeded to make itself more noticeable Even though this was their first year, a few athletes from the class were placed on various teams. Classes were not neglected however. for a freshman carried off the top academic hon ors from the first three years in the high school. in the person of Krysztofik. N 1939, the class retumed for its sophomore year's work at St. Mary's. Its ranks, meanwhile. were sadly depleted: only seven of the original twenty-one retumed, but two new members were added to the somewhat decimated sophomore roster. Every- thing was the same as in the former year except for the welcomed addition of Father Popielarz, Father Neuman, Mr. Czarnik and Mr. Woitaszek to the faculty. Again the class distinguished itself in the field of sports, placing two men on the varsity team in basketball and contributing a few men to the baseball team. The class was also well represented in the annual drama. Brother Orchid. IN SEPTEMBER. 1940, the class made its third appearance at St. Mary's. This year was marked by an outstanding basketball team-outstanding for the fact that it was the first team in three years th at had won the major portion of its games. The varsity, composed chiefly of Iuniors, went on to win the district and regional championship of Michigan. The boys also distinguished themselves in extra-cur- ricular activities, especially in the Art and the Camera Club: again they took part in the presentation of the play, Koledzy . HE CLASS staged its fourth and final debut in 1941, ending up with but six of the original twenty-one, plus one newcomer. The final year was high- lighted by a spirit of fraternity and loyalty among all, which stood them in good stead throughout the trial and tribulations of that last year of their High School. As seniors, they made up the greater part of the basketball team which had won all its scheduled games. The responsibilities of the class were shouldered by Waldemere Stryiewski, elected president of the class: Ted Matuszewski, vice-president: Ralph Obuchowski, treasurer: and Steve Lis, secretary. page twenty-eight HIGH SCHOOL SE.NiOR CLASS OF 1942. realizing that we will E.

This scene takes place in a comfortably furnished room. in which is found an easy chair before a fire-place. The occupant is Dr. Krysztofik. a be- spectacled. sedate. ordinarily dressed individual. Beside him. lay a doctor's kit. He has iust returned from his night's duty at the hospital. Tired. he turned to the radio for relaxation. As the soft strains of soothing music filled the room. he reminisced over his high school days. Then. he had fantastic dreams of great- ness. but now he realized that happiness did not consist in that. Now. though neither famous nor wealthy. he was happy. content. . . CENE II represents an entirely ditierent picture. We see before us two football teams battling for the Rose Bowl victory. All eyes are focussed on the player's bench: where the St. Mary's coach. Father Obuchowski. sits back pleased with his team's showing. and why shouldn't he? In the closing minutes of the game. his team is leading by an overwhelming score. His eyes gleam forth a supreme joy. That is his team out there. an effective fighting machine. he had created from raw material. This man is happy. not from direct fame but from reflected glory. page thirty CENE III. The scene tor this is an elaborate funeral parlor. A tall. bald- headed. digniiied man is rubbing his hands complacently as he surveys a corpse in a casket. He chuckles happily as he thinks of the accident. which as Fate would have it. had occurred in front of his establishment. bringing him an un- expected customer. The one motto of Stephen Lis. a well known and highly re- spectable mortician. is. It's an ill wind that blows no one good. As an ex- tremely well-to-do and respected citizen of his community. he is thoroughly contended with life. I HE SETTING in Scene IV is a big rambling colonial house on the sandy shores of Lake Michigan. Two people are walking arm in arm along the shore -a carefree couple, the bon vivants, Mr. and Mrs. Matuszewski. The man, slen- der and smiling, helps his beautiful wife, a youthful looking blond, blue-eyed woman. over a hillock. The happiness expressed in his countenance is quite evident. He has reason to be thus: has he not a wonderful wife, dear children, or comfortable home, a satisfactory position as an electrical engineer? CENE V takes place in the library of an auspicious residence on the outskirts of New York. Papers and books lay scattered about the room. A man with dis heveled hair, shabby smoking jacket, and comfortable slippers sits at a large desk in front of a blazing fireplace. Puffing contemplatively on the pipe Walde mere Stryiewski. a well-known novelist and historian, gazes steadily into the fire recalling the hopes and ambitions of his high school days. Those dreams have become realized and he is thoroughly content in their fulfillment. Tlus man is happily in the attainment of his aspirations and visions of future greatness un daunted in his dreams. CENE VI opens in front of a nearby completed home. A short. dumpy, stocky man walks around, directing the activities of the workers. Walter Regula, the prominent architect, is giving personal supervision to the task of building his own home. A plump. comely woman with two small children at her side, is fondly reminding him to be on time for dinner. A satisfaction with life is quite evident in his face as he gazes at his wife, children. and new home. N SCENE VII, we see a tall, heavy-set man, tinkering away happily in the workshop of his exquisitely modern home just outside of Detroit. Arthur Wojty siak, a prosperous mechanical engineer, finds utmost pleasure in fixing old and inventing new trivial gadgets. He is happiest when he can spend hours at a time in his model workshop, toying with various machinery. Complete content ment is expressed in his bearing. as he asks no more of life than what he has his secure position and a happy family. page thirty one C 0 L I L E THE HIGH SCHOOL BOY, Father Dqbrowski realized, must strive to become a complete and mature person. College years are deci- sive one. It is then that ayoung man becomes aware that he must become a link between the past and the iuture: that he has sacred obligation to fulfill as regards future generation, history, God and Country. To aid young men reach this objective is the mission of our College. The acid test is passed if, on Commencement Day, the Graduate spontaneously will say: Lord, I thank Thee that I am a Catholic, an American, a Pole. Ioseph A. Ianigcr. A.B. DETROIT.

Il you would un- derstand a people, said a famous poet, watch that people on a holiday, when it is tree to do as it likes. In our day when youth is decreeing its own doom, racing to and fro in reckless search oi amusement, when we hear so much about the prevalent spirit of revolt among the rising gen- eration, we must ask ourselves whether there is a remedy, a solution to this burning problem? Put a few ideas into their empty heads. and ieed a iew ideals to their hungry hearts and we shall hear no more ot the revolt ot ilaming youth, wrote Dr. George Derry, some 14 years ago. The youth oi today, like iamished sheep, look up and are not ied. The pursuit ot thrills, the craze for minor dissipations. are but gestures oi despair, the uneasy stirrings ot undernourished souls over the vacuum ot heart and mind which Grace as well as nature abhors. Father Lord wrote that it is leisure that largely shapes the morality ot our lives. During our eight hours oi sleep we are certainly safe from evil. During working hours we are usually fairly good citizens oi the kingdoms of earth and heaven. But at leisure? Well. we know from experience, that it is the time oi leisure during which the assaults ot body, earth and satan are made most heavily upon our souls. We are good or bad chiefly when we are at leisure. Boys will become saints or sinners all depending on how they spend their tree time. EALIZING the many advantgaes that flow from group activities, St. Mary's can boast of a well planned program of group action. The stu- dent, who takes part in social functions. becomes mentally alert: he does things for the benefit of others and he acquires a zest for living. Funda- mentally, this zest for living is the willingness to participate in social life. Without a doubt, the student would choose to do these things by him- self. Yet, St. Mary's. seeing the necessity of pro- ducing better men For God and Country gives them these opportunities under supervision. Su- pervision, in itself. does not hinder the ability of the individual who wishes to assume leader- ship: rather, it encourages it. Every student has his chance for gaining so- cial fame at Orchard Lake. It is natural for man to want to be useful. St. Mary's realizes this and hence gives the young man the opportunity to be useful. In any group-work, each member plays the part for which he is best fitted, thus he aids in the unfolding of projects and enrich- ing his social experience. Due to such activity there is a noticeable change in the character of the student. He changes from the egotistic I-ness to the cooperative We-ness. This social development brings about that warm American trait of original humor, devel- opes a consideration for others and brings into the student that constructive idea so necessary for progress. It becomes quite obvious that any group possessing cr democratic atmosphere offers experience in initiating and carrying out plans, in meeting difficulties, in accepting and fulfilling obligations, in distributing responsibility, and in creating morale. A N STRANG'S BOOK, Group Activities in Col- leges and Secondary Schools, we learn that the establishment of successful social contacts de- pends upon: 1. An interest in social contacts and a desire to maintain them: 2. An environment iacilitating social contacts: and 3. Specific tech- niques ior establishing them. At St. Mary's, the second and third conditions are present at all times. This, however. does not mean to imply that the iirst requirement neces- sarily depends upon the student himself. He who has no interest in social life is oiten influenced by those who have. This arouses his yearning for social contact and results in a desire to be of service to his friends. Several experiments on the social attitude of students have shown that responsibility, gener- osity and consideration for others were related to successful life in school. The student who sat at his desk and took no time out from studies lacked the ability to make iriends. Others who did take out time from study had definitely a more pleas- ant attitude toward life. However, in this, as in every other aspect of human behavior, there is a wide range of characteristics the individual can acquire. This does depend upon the individual himself. l Furthermore, St. Mary's plans to turn out a finished product which is capable of making steady progress in the world. Hence, everybody takes part in some group activity. Participants often produce outstanding contributions and de- velopes hidden talents. Throughout his social life at Orchard Lake, the student developes those abilities which will be of use to him in his future lite. The beneficial results are: increased poise and self-confidence. ANY GROUP FUNCTIONS are the results of the student's emotion. This heightens the in- terest and proficiency in studies ior then the stu- dent is emotionally looking for a development parallel to his own social life. The activities. however, do not encourage wild emotions. St. Mary's knows this and hence. neither the mind nor the body of a student is overtaxed with fa- tiguing activity. While group activities contribute constructive- ly to the development oi the individual, they also contribute in that, they prevent explosive out- bursts of his energy. The principle followed in this case is: if a student has continuous plans to formulate, he will not lower himself to a brute- like sense of humor. Therefore. the individual and the school are aided by increased group action. By means of interacting with the other students, one combines his ideas with theirs and thus de- velopes a sense of value. St. Mary's realizes that standards of social activity of tomorrow are built on the basis of those begun in school. OCATIONALLY, group activities have un- covered different hidden talents. Through group work. many a student has gained valuable in- formation concerning art, music and journalism. Combined with this information. he gains the valuable asset of knowing his own creations. To add, mind and body cooperate to create original ideas of beauty. Finally. the student loses the fundamental vice of selfishness lor he has gained the virtue of working for and with a group. More important than this. the student has gained the loyalty of his friends and thus through- out his liie he will be able to make many more.

'Qt to I page fifty-four EARLY Father Dabrowski was born in Zol- tance, Poland, on Ianuary 19, 1842. ADOLESCENCE' He lost his father when he was twelve. His courageous mother supported and educated three children by managing a boarding house for school boys in Lublin. Young Ioseph helped considerably. He completed his education in Lublin with the aid of a scho- larship and entered the University of Warsaw. STUDENT- The young student's patriotic zeal could not PATRIOT- observe the preparations for the Ianuary In- surrection passively. He ioined the forces of General Mieroslawski. and received the command of a detachment. After the inevitable collapse of the uprising, he retumed to his studies at Warsaw. The Russian govern- ment however, initiated a devastatingly effective drive to punish the insurrectionists. Ioseph with the aid of Dr. Cha- lupinski left his native land. FRUITFUL Foreign soil proved to be a harsh step- EXILE' mother to Father Dqbrowski. In Saxony he had to labor hard for a livelihood. The knowledge and experience gained, however, served him in good stead in later years. By some stroke of fortune he got an opportunity to pursue further mathematical studies at the Universities in Switzerland. Soon after, he felt the call to labor in the vineyard of Christ. He proceeded to Rome, to attend the seminary of the Congregation of the Resurrec- tion which had been founded by Bogdan Ianski and Adam Mickiewicz. Here he came under the wise direction and guidance of Father Peter Semenenko. SHEPHERD OF Divine Providence guided him to THE POLES. Rome not only as a preparation to the priesthood but also to direct him On September 1, 1869, the day of his ordination, the Poles in America sent an earnest appeal to Pope Pius IX begging for Polish priests. Realizing that a splendid opportunity was being offered Father Dqbrowski immediately volunteered. Bishop Melcher of Green Bay, Wisconsin, who was in Rome at the time, gladly interviewed him as a prospective candidate for his diocese. to his field of labor. UNGRATEFUL Soon after Father Dqbrowski arrived in CH ARGES' Wisconsin, he was appointed to the Sacred Heart of Iesus parish in a local- ity, which he later called, Polonia. Surprisingly, his pres- ence was not welcomed. The men who had infested the neighborhood with taverns were responsible for this anta- gonistic attitude. Such an environment, he saw, was hardly suitable for the development of the parish. A change to another locality was imperative. Paradoxically this be- came possible through the land-grant of a non-Catholic, Mr. McGrear, who later became a convert. A VERSATILE A good shepherd that he was, Father PASTORI Dabrowski devoted his extraordinary zeal and talents not only in supplying the immediate spiritual needs of his people, but also the in- tellectual and material. Following the example of the early monks. he instructed them in improved methods of farming and the other crafts. However. he was more concerned with the education of youth. Classes were held in the rec- tory with a faculty composed of himself. a certain Kiedrow- ski, and the daughter of the philantropic McGrear. The rapid growth of his parish demanded greater and larger teaching facilities. FELICIAN SISTERS Already familiar with the splendid and noble work of the Felician ARRIVE' Sisters in Poland. Father Dqbrow- ski dispatched to the Mother-General at Cracow a fervent petition-so persuasive that immediate compliance was made. Soon. five self-sacrificing Sisters set out to America to perform a most noble work. They arrived on November 20, 1874. being the first Polish nuns to set foot in America. CQNVERTS. Father Dqbrowski did not confine his pastoral work only to his fellow men but also tumed to the Indians that had encamped nearby. Like the truly great apostle. he endeavored to ransom the souls of the natives by deeply interesting himself in their strug- gles, hopes and misfortunes. Gradually, their confidence was gained. Mother Monica would often prepare a basket of dainty delights which Father Dabrowski would take for the Indian children. It became so that a visit of the Black- robe always brought cries of ioy. In time. with the aid of a blind Indian to act as interpreter, conversations became an accomplished fact. FQUNDS PQLISH After many years of exhausting pas- toral labor Father Dabrowski was SENHNARY' forced to resign. While in Detroit he realized the urgent necessity of supplying priests for the ever-swelling number of immigrant Poles. Also aware of these pastoral needs were the Bishops of America. who soon appealed to Cardinal Ledochowski, then at the head of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith in Romer The Cardinal conceived the idea of founding a College and a Seminary in America. which could most effectively satisfy this need. When in 1879. Father Leopold Moczygeba. O.M.C.. visited Rome. Cardinal Ledochowski consigned the undertaking to him. Pope Leo XHI heartily approved this splendid undertaking. When Father Moczygeba retumed to America. he entrusted the undertaking to Father Dqbrowski. A GLQRIQUS With characteristic vigor, Father Da- IINI browski started proceedings to gather C AX' an adequate fund. After trudging daily for even the smallest offering. sufficient money was finally collected to begin construction. Success was his when the seminary. under the patronage of the SS. Cyril and Metho- dius. was completed on December 15. 1885. As the paternal and benevolent head of the institution Father Dqbrowski devoted his remaining efforts. On Saturday, February 15. 1903, he suffered a heart attack. The attending physician warned that a relapse would end in death. On the follow- ing morning a repeated attack brought to an end a life of toil and sacrifice. The day had come for the Eternal Shep- herd to say. Well done. my good and faithful servant. rl 1735.

Edward Garbacz Ioseph Turek Richard Laszewski Ioseph Krysztofik Father Maksimik The Sodalists carry on projects to increase devotion to the Mass and Holy Communion. Instructions on points ot Catholic Action are otten given by the Moder- ator. Father Maksimik, at the monthly meetings. Every first Saturday the Sodalists gather to sing the beautiful and inspiring Godzinki Do Matki Boskiei. The annual public manifestation ot their devotion to the Blessed Virgin is held on Mother's Day in the way of an Obch6d. HIGH SCHOOL MISSION UNIT HE HIGH SCHOOL MISSION UNIT, affiliated with the Seminary society. is still in its infancy. It was or- ganized in 1941 through the arduous efforts of Father Orlik. Much credit is due him for his perseverence in explaining the many Mission details, for his unerring guidance and tor his foresight in planning its program. Its primary purpose is to acquaint the High School students with the Mission field, its potential strength and advantages. Another aim is not only to gain material aid but also to instill into the students a valiant missionary spirit. Their zeal has been manifested in the many projects undertaken this year. I. Rakoczy R. Laszewski S. Lis Father Orlik W. Stryjewski page sixty-one HANDICRAFT CLUB NE of the new additions to the extra-curricular acti- vities of the High School is the Handicraft Club. Spe- cifically it came into being September, 1941. The main purpose of this inter-class organization is to provide in some measure a place and a means of making the most proper use of time after classes have ceased for the day. An adequate place is assigned to this club, and the means are quite sufficient for turn- ing out proiects in wood. The aim of this interesting organization is threefold: 1. to keep the student gain- fully occupied, 2. to train the members in the use of fundamental wood working tools. 3. to teach the mem- bers the general particulars of manual training. The club has indeed been fortunate in having as Moderator Prof. R. T. Czarnik. Richard Laszewski Ioseph Turek Edward Woznicki Stanislaus Orlikiewicz Alvin Norgiel Chester Lis Professor Czamik Arthur Woitysiak Ioseph Michalik Richard Reinke The comparatively large number of projects that have been made by this organization signifies that it has made great progress. The greatest proiect how ever has to do with the electrical, scenery, and car pentry associated with the armual dramatic presenta tion of the High School Department. Firmly resolved that as Emerson states, We will work with our own hands this new student organiza tion has shown by its functioning that it can and will develop into a fine thing for the future student of St Mary's High School. page S1XlY two CAMERA CLUB HE CAMERA CLUB was established two years ago as an excellent means of developing the capacities of the students through a worth while activity. With the aid of Professor Woitaszek, as Moderator, this ex- tra-curricular activity was instituted on the Campus for the maintenance of student interest. The purpose of the Camera Club is to foster the interest of photography, to provide the 'students with a useful as well as interesting extra-curricular activity. to promote the exchange of ideas and finally to pro- vide a means of making a permanent record and pic- torial history of student and faculty activities, sports, and to illustrate the school newspaper and Year Book. i3::5 .N 1 semen: gas.

It is divided into two groups: the Literary Section. which promotes interest in good literature by printing interesting book reviews in the school newspaper. The Lake Oracle, and the Apologetic Section, which supervises the Quiz Programs at the monthly meetings. Edward Kedzierzawski Iohn Malecki Edward Szczech Father Maksimik page sixty-tour During May, an altar-shrine to Our Mother is con structed in the lobby of the College Hall-a vivid re- minder that it is Mary's month, that it is the time ior every true Pole to double his devotion to the Mother ot God. Once the Grotto, which is being constructed on the campus is completed, a new and very welcomed obli- gation will present itself to the College Sodalists-to upkeep and to beautify this new Shrine to the Patron- ess of the College. PHI GAMMA CHI FRATERNITY HE FRATERNITY, which was organized by Father Cendrowski in December, 1930, for the purpose of pro- moting good cheer and college spirit on the campus, was for this past year achieving its aim successfully. Beginning with the public initiations, the Frat success- fully carried out its planned program of parties, dis- cussions and outings.

But the Lake Oracle is really the best glorifying result as well as the progeny ol all these. No one can exactly say which one person is solely responsible lor the Lake Oracle: everyone finds it his duty to support it.

SEMINARY SODALITY HIS YEAR marks the 25th anniversary of the found-P ing of the Sodality at SS. Cyril and Methodius Sem- inary. Shortly after Reverend Arnold Waszyca re- ceived permission frorn Bishop Iohn Foley to establish the Sodality. he had it affiliated with the Prima Prima- ria in Rome. The Sodality is a religious society whose purpose is to use the devotion to the Blessed Virgini as a means of fostering and instilling into its members a fervor for Catholic life and for all that it stands. Every month. the official publication of the Sodality. The Sodalis, is sent to Poles throughout the nation and foreign countries. thereby stirring up devotion to the Mother of Christ. With Father Maksimik as Moder- ator. the Sodality has reached new heights in both its purpose and in its official Sodality paper, The Soda- lis. May those who follow, keep up this important work. Stanislaus Milewski Iohn Przewoinik Father Maksimik Francis Majusiak Benedict Rembelski I page sixty-seven SACRED HEART SOCIETY HE LEAGUE OF THE SACRED HEART is officially known as the Apostleship of Prayer. It is a pious asso- ciation of Catholics in all parts of the world who daily offer their prayers, works and sufferings for the inten- tion of the Sacred Heart, in reparation for sins, for the particular intention of the Holy Father, and for the in- tention of their fellow associates. By the active mem- bership in the League even the indifferent actions of the day are sanctified and made prayers and works Elmer Sobiek Francis Krul Ioseph Skupiefn Father Ropella Boleslaus Radzi ewicz page sixty-eight for God. Moreover, the members share in the merits and good works of many Religious Orders and in the Indulgences especially granted by the Church. The local unit which consists exclusively of students in the Seminary helps to iurnish the Chapels here with many necessities for divine worship. In this way the Society promotes externally the love for the Sacred Heart. The members of the Society, under the direc- tion oi their Moderator, Father Ropella, and their staff officers, zealously fulfill the purpose ot the Society. THE SODALIS ATHOLIC ACTION consists not merely in personal perfection but also of a true Apostolate. Hence a spe- cial and vital function of the Sodalis is to disseminate the golden theme of Catholic thought among the Poles in America. The Sodalists have centered their talents and energies to make this monthly publication an outstanding and influential Catholic periodical. It Stanislaus Milewski Wenceslaus Grochowski Father Maksimik Professor Piwowarski Henry Smarszcz Bronislaus Worsa Ladislaus Lisowski Vincent Pitkiewicz Eugene Kijek Daniel Bogus Anthony Chmielewski Iohn Grabowski has merited the praise of many Polish journalists and many of its articles have been reprinted in many out- standing Polish papers in the country. The periodical enjoys a very large circulation and a very wide ex- change. It is an extra-curricular activity giving excel- lent practice in journalism to the students who are willing. page S1XlY mme Z THE SEMINARY MISSION SOCIETY INCE ITS ORGANIZATION IN 1919 by our present Rector, then a student, the Mission Society has con- tinued to fulfill its threefold purpose of praying for the missions. studying the missions and sacrificing for the missions. I-ls a unit. the Seminarians cooperated in furthering the achievements of the Society by taking an active interest in its mission work and by promoting a program exernplifying their true mission spirit. Following the precedent set by its predecessors. the Seminarians weekly offered prayers and sacrifices for the missions. Every Saturday afternoon saw two of its members visiting St Iosephs Mercy Hospital m Pontiac where they distributed Catholic papers maga zines and pamphlets to the Catholic patients In ad dition. the Society maintains a magazme rack for the students' use. 1941-1942 proved to be an active successful year for the Seminary unit of the Mission Society In fulfill ing its purpose. it has paved the way for continued success in the future. page seventy Iohn Terepka Father Orlxk Casimir Senderak Anthony Chmlelewslu Stephen Dqbkowsln DETROIT AND VICINITY STUDENTS' CLUB HE Reverends Wilczewski. Krych, Walkowiak, Go- rzenialslci and Messrs. Draganski, Slazinski, with the able help of their friends, laid the foundation of this organization on May 9, 1919. Its aim is clearly outlined in its Constitution: namely, training in public speaking through a program ot theatrical productions: strengthening social ties by way of group recreation and excursions: and, lastly, aiding the Alma Mater through moral and material contribu- tions. During the many years of its existence, the Club Mitchell Bednarski Ioseph Turek Paul Sierocki Daniel Bogus Father Filipowicz Bernard Zaglaniczny grew steadily stronger until today it is one ol the larg- est organizations on the Campus. A glance at its records proves conclusively that the purpose has been fulfilled. At present, under the guidance of their zealous Moderators, Fathers Filipowicz and Neumann, it has reached new heights. Let us hope that its present members will be mindful ol their past record and will continue to win new laurels for the Detroit Students' Club. page seventy one EUCHARISTIC LEAGUE HE FIRST BEGINNINGS of this world wide League for the laity were given by the blessed Peter Eamard. in 1897. Twenty-tive years later the Eucharistic League made its iirst appearance on the Orchard Lake Carn- pus and was affiliated with the main headquarters in Rome.

Its secondary purpose was to propagate the glory of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Taking part in weekly adoration, they strive to spread and encourage the needed devotion to the Holy Eucharist. The mem- bers of this League are both the benetactors and the beneficiaries: bringing others closer to the Sacred Heart oi Our Divine Savior. and storing up innumer- able treasures in heaven. The Moderator ot this as- sociation is Father Rybinski. POLISH LITERARY SOCIETY HE POLISH LITERARY SOCIETY was first organized in the year 1895, by two students oi the SS. Cyril and Methodius Seminary, I. H. Straus and P. Budnik. The purpose oi this organization was to awaken, as well as sustain a love for Polish songs and to sub- scribe to the foremost Polish publications. Later, by constant revision ot the constitution, it had for its aims: 1. The strengthening of interest in things Polish with the aid oi speeches, debates. theatrical productions. 2. To bind and sustain brotherly love amongst its members, and 3. To support Polish publications. Leonard Gajewski Peter Pianowski Walter Tobis Henry Zdunski Ignatius Novelli As tor forty-seven years. the Polish Literary Society continues, still, to fulfill its purpose by producing pro- grams and theatrical presentations during the year. During this school term, it has presented two outstand- ing productions: an Academy in honor of the late Ignacy Ian Paclerewski together with the honoring of the 25th anniversary of the death oi Henryk Sienkie- wicz, and the Christmas play, Polish Bethlehem. page seventy three n , A T ll L E : oeooeaao ly xg Spy ii uf if 2 A v - .',- :q,.:.:.I':-. : :: M:-1 ,., ..i:,-..,-N.

The first two years were not marked by any d'stinguished successes, but in 1932, Father Krzyiosiak coached a veteran eleven to an undefeated showing and the cham- pionship oi the M.O.C.C., five members ol the team making All-Conference, includ- ing Father Neumann, the present coach. The team was successively taken over by Father Bartol, and then by Edward I. Skrzycki. Though never producing extreme- ly outstanding teams after this, the Eagles were marked by a spirit of sportsman- ship and clean play. F IT'S POSSIBLE in Football, St. Mary's Col- lege team of 1941 had two strikes on them before they started. Firstly, there was bare- ly a nucleus of a team left from last year's varsity, for only three regulars returned, and secondly, there was the inexperience of the rest ot the squad. It was Father Neuman's iob to start again, and mold a team. The three lettermen who returned were: Rusty Zdun- ski, Lou Ferbert, and Tex Otoka: this trio was supplanted by a small group oi juniors and sophomores who had seen action the previous season. Dabkowski Kula Father Neuman and his assistant Cass Sen- derak opened the 1941 season against Ferris of Big Rapids, Michigan. Traditional Ferris weather prevailed and the game was played in mud. The Eagles fought gamely and stubbornly, but it iust wasn't their day to win. In their homecoming game at Keyworth Stadium, St. Mary's met the superior Lawr- ence Tech team. The Blue Devils had an experienced squad as well as an ample sup- ply oi substitutes. These two factors turned the tide in iavor of Lawrence Tech. Tobis Zdunski page seventy-six Having lost two well-fought games. the Eagles journeyed to Defiance. Ohio. De- termined to emerge victors over this team as they had done last year, the squad fought well and grimly, but the loss of Captain Zdunski. Co-Captain Ferbert. Otoka. as well as Dqbkowski. speedy back, through injuries sustained in the game, resulted in Definace's avenging their 1940 defeat. Came November and with it the last game of our football season with Grand Rapids University, coached by the famous Potsy Clark. The Eagles were enthused at the opportunity of playing against a professional- ly-coached squad. The boys wanted to show Potsy up but failed. Though the 1941 campaign was not very successful, we, nevertheless. take our hats off to the never-say-die spirit of the Eagles, to the accurate passing of Lou Ferbert. to the fine pass-receiving of Rusty Zdunski. and Tex Otoka. the great defensive work of Ioe Marszal, and to the three seniors who donned uniforms for the last time: Steve Dqbkowski. Ioe Kula, and Walter Tobis. We look forward to many and more suc- cessful gridiron campaigns at St. Mary's. Father Neuman feels confident that with the return of such men as Ferbert, Otoka. Mar- szal, Wiercioch, Zaglaniczny, and Gondek, the team of 1942 will be more successful. page seventy-seven College Quintet HE EAGLES and basketball have been connected in the sports annals of Michi- gan ever since the sport was introduced at St. Mary's in 1914. Such men as Dan Danielak, Speedy Orlemanski, A. I. Wotta, and L. Malinowski spread Orchard Lake's basketball fame lar and wide, defeating such outstanding teams as Notre Dame, University of Michigan, University ol Detroit, Loyola University, Michigan State, Armour Tech, and a host of others. Not only did the Eagles play other college fives, but they also engaged professional teams of that day, holding their own against the Buffalo Lincolns, Detroit Rayls. Buffalo Orioles. and Camp Custer. The Four Horsemen. Bocianski, Wotta, Sturgis. and Glaudel of St. Mary's. cap- tured the headlines time and again in their day, the Detroit Times captioning them as the four of the Michigan's Greatest Five! This peerless five tied with Adrian in the first year of M.O.C.C. competition, but won the title the following year, win- ning ten conference games in a row, and fifteen out of seventeen games played. OW, even though St. Mary's basketball glories have dimmed since 1933, the Eagles still valiantly carry on. Scarcely had the football season been completed, when the Orchard Lakers turned their attention from the gridiron to the court. The initial game of the season was the first taste of varsity competition for most of the boys on the squad. The outcome, however, was a great victory for St. Mary's. In the fol- lowing encounters, the uninitiated members of the team made glaring errors, but they were errors of inexperience. In time, as the games with De Salles, Law- rence Tech, Grand Rapids University illus- trated, the squad executed their plays well, with speed and accuracy. page seventy-eight The hats-off department salutes Captain Lou Ferbert, Bernie Wyzykowski. Benny Za- glaniczny, and Ianczukowicz for their con- sistent scoring and vigorous team play: and to Chet Nowak. who put on a basketball uni- form for the last time.

Prep Quintet VER SINCE the introduction ot basketball into the High School in 1914, the Eaglets have lelt a blazing trail across basketball heavens, this year being no ex- ception. They set splendid examples of stamina and endurance, as shown by the tact that in the first round-robin tourney in Lansing, Michigan. they played three games in one day, losing the last game by only one point. Since then, St. Mary's High School has garnered a lair share of the State championships, not to mention championships in other tournaments. HIS YEARS aggregation ol Eaglets tol- lowed in the footsteps ot basketball tradition by being the iirst team in the history ol the school to go through its regular schedule un- defeated, excluding the tournaments. To surpass the enviable record set down by the basketball team ot last year was the task and goal ot the 1941-42 St. Mary's High School quintet. The Eaglets attained their goal. The squad started the victory march with a bang and in the end whitewashed all its regular scheduled opponents. ln the annual Polish Catholic High School Tournament at Krysztofik Lis Orchard Lake, St. Mary's was knocked out by St. Iosaphat's by one point, the Eaglets having an off day. They proved their right to the P.C.H.S. tournament championship by beating the champions twice in the ensuing season. Among the victims were the aggres- sive and scrappy St. Ladislaus High ot Ham- tramck, Michigan, Roosevelt High ot Keego Harbor, Michigan-the runners up for the 1940 Class C title ol the state of Michigan, and St. Stanislaus High School-the 1940 winners ot the much coveted Bishop Woznicki trophy.

Rakoczy, Terepka HEN CAME the State tournaments. St. Mary's went through the district tournaments like wild fire, Keego Harbor proving to be the onyl real competition. The Eaglets were beaten in the semi-finals ot the regionals by St. Benedict's. Though losing throughout the whole game, the team never gave up until the whistle blew at the end, giving a remark- able exhibition of never-say-die spirit the school is noted tor. Much credit is due to the Coach, Father Neumann, lor developing this basketball ma- chine, to Ralph Obuchowski lor his long- range bombardment, to Pete Laszewski lor his under the bucket shots, to Chris Krysz- totik for his excellent defense work under the basket. Streaky Stryjewski, and Curly Turek, who formed the bulwark of the St. Mary's High School defense during most ol the season, and to the High School student body for its great support. In such players as Rakoczy, Dabrowski, and the entire junior varsity, Father Neumann will lind the nucleus of his iuture teams. An interesting tact about the Eaglets is that the only teams that beat them were two Cath- olic teams-St. Iosaphat's and St. Benedict's. No public high school ever prevailed over St. Mary's this year. txigu E'lQillY'Cll0 Prep Baseball HE HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM,opening its first official baseball season in 1914, made the astounding record of not losing a single game for eight succes- sive years. In 1922, Farmington handed the Prep baseballers their first setback. During Father Cendrowski's reign as coach, the high school had twenty-six wins against nine losses. Much credit must also be given to Father Skrocld, for the teams he produced, after succeeding Father Cendrowski as coach. ODAY, the baseball nine of St. Mary's High School stands a good chance of having many victories chalked up in the ledger. A large number of lettermen and a substantial group of promising first year men form one of the best aggregations in recent years. Further- more the baseball team took on a new spirit this year as is evident from their practice sessions. The student body looks forward to a team which will equal the brilliant feats of the baseball nines of the past. The grind is tough, for this year's competition is keener than ever, but we have confidence in these lads and we know it will be a successful season. If past periomlances are any iudge of the future, Ralph Obuchowski will again supply page eighty-two the batting punch, Turek will once more shine in the outfield, Rakoczy, as always, will thrill the fans with his sensational catches in the infield. Kogut, Klus, and Krysztofik will con- tribute the extra punch in order to make this year's baseball team not only one of the most successful but the most aggressive.

School men are seeing . . . . . mae that tact and are iostenng it by saying that a pupil must make a passing g on all subiects betore he can play. To develop scholarship is the aim ot every school. There is yet another way by which athletics are ot value to a school. This ' ' h lth and recreation Being out in the open air is good lor one, way is in ea . . because he gets tresh air. The muscles develop and grow stronger by athletic ' ' al activities. Playing in games aiiords a very keen enyoyment to any norm youth. Moreover. athletics otier a means ot torrning good character habits.

Moral courage usually tollows. Taking turns is e exp ot iustice. Rules ot the game exercise honesty and tairness in social corn- tition They teach that it is more important to be honorable than to win. pe . Loyalty to the team and co-operation with it is essential to its winning. Sports- manship is the ideal ot athletics: it is the Golden Rule applied to the ethics oi play. Thus athletics are valuable to the school in tive ways: First. they develop ch l irit- second they advertise the school: third. they encourage scholar- s oo sp . . ship: iourth. they promote health and recreation: and iitth. they develop the physical and moral courage ot the youth.
