The Sodality is the major organization at St. Mary's for two reasons: it enrolls all the students as members and its aims are mainly spiritual. It suggests to each sodalist the lofty ideal of personal holi- ness through imitation of Mary in all Walks of life. To motivate group Work for the future parishioner, the Sodality carries on its projects in the spiritual, social, literary fields through committees. These committees this year have successfully conducted many programs and drives of importance. Press Month and Vocation Week were 0bS91'VQd with practical emphasis on the immediate and future benefits for each student. The Catholic Action group collected magazines and delivered them at the Michigan City prison for the library there. Speakers were secured to address the students on college preparation for life. The senior girls staged a play, In Life's Glad Mom , to portray the approach to a choice of a religious vocation. To stimulate interest in the study club and other parish activities, the sodality leaders invited the president of St. Mary's College Sodality, Miss Justine Apfeld, to address the members. Miss Apfeld's actual experiences in a South Bend parish furnished the background for her appeal to the students to affiliate themselves with all parish groups. Her demonstration of a discussion club was an interesting feature of the assembly. Outside the religious field the sodality sponsored discussions at which the spiritual director, Father Roesler, presided. Sister Marie Jean is the sodality moderator. Mary A. Neulieb and Eugene Wiegand are co-prefects. The sodality hopes to send delegates to the Chicago Catholic Action School in August where, through the kindness of the Knights of Columbus, last year, Mary Ann Neulieb and Catherine Olvaney learned the technique of organization and sodality maintenance. 28
