For Southbridge Catholics a momentous occasion occurred in 18-LO, when the first Mass was celebrated by the Reverend james Fitton, at the home of Mr. Seery, overseer ofthe Hamilton Woolen Company's mill. Father Fitton then returned to Southbridge, whenever it was possible, to say Mass for the people, but Father Logan, S.j. , who was professor of rhetoric at Holy Cross College, was able to come at more frequent intervals. Thus he became the first priest to say Mass in Southbridge every Sunday. Since it seemed evident that a permanent church would be necessary, a special meeting of Catholics was held in the South Schoolhouse, where it was proposed and voted for unanimously that immediate steps be taken for the erection of a Catholic Church, on a plot of land donated by a Protestant, Mr. William Edwards. ln july work was eagerly begun under the direction of the Reverend Boyce, and was dedicated under the patronage of St. Peter. 3 DEDICATICN Four years ago a new he admaster was appointed to St. lVlZ1I'y'S High School. Four years ago we were timid freshmen. Together we have matured and learned. Now, as we pause at the portals of adulthood, we look back and see how this one priest has molded our future. His help, co-operation, advice and guidance had led us through this critical four-year period. In appreciation for all he has done, the Class of 1965 dedicates this yearbook to its friend and he admaster, Reverend Martin P. Donahue. 4 2 l C ' af fry FATHER DONAHUES DAYINCLUDES: Celebrating the Holy Sacrifice of the lVlass, Directing Newman Club Members at Nichols College, Dudley, lVlass., and Combining Learning and Fun in a Spanish Class.

A. Mx Barat became the first resident pastor ol the newly-formed St. Peters Parish. After establishing the basis for the new parish, he was replaced by Rev. J. I. McDermott, who remained one year. For the following sixteen years, until his death on july 17, 1886, the young parish was guided by Rev. J. M. Kremnien who, due to the destruction of the church by fire, moved the location of the building to the adjoining corner lot and constructed the present rectory. For five years follow ing his appointment in September 1886, Rev. M. Donohue did much to reduce the parish debt. l-ie con- verted the old St. Peter's Church, which was being used as a hall, into the present St. Mary's Grammar School and he also purchased the Edwards Street property which is the present location of the convent. From 1891 through 1937, St. Mary's had a succession of pastors in the persons of Rev. J. B. Drennan, Rev. Dennis Mullins and Rev W. F. Smith. The expansion and beauty of our parish is a living tribute to the zeal and dedication of each of these pastors who are still held in loving memory. FACU LTY SR MARIA LJRALL SR EDNA MARIA SR .

MARY'S GRAMMAR SCHOOL Since 1889, when the Sisters of St. Joseph first began teaching here, St. Maiy's Graminar School served as .1 combination graininar and high school. Due to the fact that space was extremely limited, Monsignor Cilrain, in 195-1, completely remodernized the Grammar School. Although this was a great im- provement, the small stucco structure still proved to be inadequate to house students from grades one tlirougli twelve. Accordingly, it became quite evident that the construction of a high school, or at least an addition to the grammar school, was a necessity. As always, St. Mary's parishioners co-operated wholeheartedly with the result that ground for the new St. Mary's High School was broken in April, 1959. This school is truly a monuinent to the generosity of our parishioners and the farsightedness of Msgr. Cilrain. SENIDRS , 9 A . 4, Q J ' SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS: Pres., R. Carryg V. Pres., R.

Also, to you, otu' devoted priests and sisters, we give thanks for the privilege of studying under your direction and for your imprinting upon our minds and hearts the teach- ings of Christ and of His Church. My fellow classmates, fondly and gratefully I cherish the memories of the past four years, of our intimate associations, for which I give thanks to Cod as the happiest Clays thus far in my life . Our misunderstandings, successes and failures, we faced together to make us better men and women who are trying to find the right path to upright living and happiness. Let us fill our minds with thoughts of peace, courage, faith, hope and charity, for our lives are a reflection of our thoughts. There will be times in our lives when we shall experience ingratitude. Let us then re- member Lhat, whereas Christ healed ten lepers, only one returned to thank Him. Ought we to expect more in the way of thanks than Christ Himself received? Let us seek out those whose lives are worthy of imitation but meanwhile, let us FIND our- selves and BE ourselves . Sincerely, RALPH LOCONTO, President, Senior Class SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS: R.

The Sisters stuff the College of Our Liidy ofthe lfhns, 16 high schools, -LO grade schools, besides doing catechetical worlr in 70 other parishes. Their distinctive spirit of humility and charity has been inside manifest in the seventy-six yezirs they have served us.

To our present teachers, as well as to those who prepared us in graiinniur school, we pledge our gratitude, loyalty and affection, trusting that in our lives we insiy always reflect the high standards which they nurtured untiringly.

Without a doubt, the greatest accomplishment ever attained in our parish was the construction of the new high school. This project, which was Lmdertaken under the leadership of Msgr. james P. Gilrain, our pastor, with the co-operation and support of the parishioners, is truly a dream come true. Since it is also used as a recreation center for social functions, club meetings and all extra-curricular activities such as sports, musicals and plays, the school has become a meeting place for most of us, in addition to our regular class sessions. We are all very proud of our beautiful high school and grateful for the many opportunities it has afforded us. Since the Class of 1965 will be the last class to graduate from St. Mary's High School before the merger with Notre Dame High School becomes effective, there will always be a degree of sentimentality attached to all of our happy memories of the days when we were an active part of St. Mary's, although, in a sense , we shall always be a part of it, as it has become a part of each one of us.

ST, MARY'S HIGH SCHOOL NOTRE DAME HIGH SCHOOL now MARIANHILL CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL Only do thou still go forward, follow where the pathway leads . . . The date, March 28, 1965, will long be remembered by the alumni and students of St. Mary's for it was while we were attending Sunday Mass that we learned that St. Mary's High School was to be merged with Notre Dame High School, thereby becoming a Central Catholic High School. The new school, which will be known as MARIANHILL CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL, will serve principally the area of Southbridge, Sturbridge, Charlton and Oxford. Marianhill derives its name from its location and the fact that both high schools honor the Blessed Virgin Mary. Plans call for the changeover to be effective Sepbember, 1965. The faculty will include members of both the Sisters of St. Joseph and the Sisters of the Assurnption. This will be the first time that members of more than one religious order will comprise the faculty of a school in the Worcester diocese. As has been noted by our Bishop, combining the religious faculties, as well as the physical facilities, will make it possible in the future to provide a much more flexible and improved educational program. Although St. Mary's has been small in numbers, it has carried on a mighty tradition spiritually, academically and physically. We are now taking another step forward, a big step, to improve our school and its future leaders. Marianhill will be a new bond uniting all efforts for the greater honor and glory of Our Lady and her Divine Son. GRADUATES . ' vv A X15-i ,ei ' W . A ciggiw' -A - in .
