of thc Juniors into their singing ucareers.n For upon request we were asked to present the musical portion of the Rosary Hour, a weekly presentation of WSXWJ. After conquering our stage fright, we succeeded in holding up the honors of St. Mary's. Then after a two days' interval we held our annual Mothers' Party. As this was the first time for many of the mothers to see our school, it gave them an opportunity to be introduced to our teachers and at the same time see our classrooms. Having fully inspected everything, they spent the remainder of the afternoon playing bingo or cards, followed by a luncheon and the distribution of the prizes to the lucky winners. With the coming of March, preparations began to be made for our annual retreat. It began on the 24th and after com uning with our God, we closed it on the 27th with Holy Communion and the renewal of our Baptismal vows. And then turning from the spiritual side to the temporal, we were served a fine breakfast, which was followed by some in- spiring and interesting talks bv our retreat master, Father Hoeger, and two guest speakers. After many weeks of hard practice, the cast of nUnder Covern presented St. Mary's yearly school play at the Wilson Theater. Drawing a record breaking audience, they were able to bask in the glory of success. June! And with it the thought of graduation-- the final event of the school year. But to give the graduates a real send off from St. Hary's, we gave them a class day luncheon. After the luncheon speeches were in order, and these were given by the presidents of the three classes, and our guests--Father Ackerman and Father Schillo. The day of Graduation was a beautiful day, one most fitting for such an occasion. The evening exercises were a sight never before beheld by many of us, and one not soon to be forgotten. Although we said many ugoodbycsu that night to our class- mates, we met them all again the very next day at our annual school excursion at Bob-lo. Having spent a very pleasant and enjoyable day we said goodbye HHlll'WO would meet again in September. But on September 7, the first day of school, our nurber had decreased to 56 of the criminal 42. These who had dropped out during the course cf the year were June Burke, Patricia Sullivan, Rosemary Roerhig, Helen Buckley, Geraldine Nolan, and Ida Trupino. But we were happy to welcome two new- comers, Dolores Kraus and Doris Hiller, to our class, making a total of 38 in the Senior Class of '59.
