. Q QQQSS-EE EEW 1939-1940 1fVe were standing there in the school-yard, gazing wistfully at the building marked St. Michael High School . Freshmen at last! For the Hrst month, we really thought we were going to have Heinfs 57 Varieties, because during Septem- ber, we had two teachers, but on Uctober 1, we were surprised to see the teacher who was to remain with us during that year. One of the little Freshies wrote on the blackboard: Let's initiate Sister. 1N7e'll never forget initiation day and the week following because of the silly costumes we were obliged to wear to school. After taking time out to become acquainted, we really settled down to a year of solid work, with one resolution: We're going to be the best Senior Class St. Michael's ever had. 1940-1941 The following September found us again in the school-yard, sophisticated Sophomores were we. Our retreat, under the direction of Rev. Paschal Drew, C.P., took place during the last week of September. This prepared us for the ups and downs of that year. German proved a fascinating subject. Geometry was full of angles and had us going in circles. Dorothy Gruendl tried her directing ability in the Christmas play, A Mad Breakfast . A rare privilege was granted us this year, that of holding an evening social. This social was dedicated to our Blessed Mother. The high- light of the year was the visit of Father Quigley, newly appointed Superintendent of Schools, and then came promotion to a certain room on the second Hoor. 1941-1942 Jolly Juniors! 1'Ve began this happy school year with a retreat given by Rev. Raphael Duffy, C.P. How well we relneinber our first lesson in typing and short- hand! At Christmas, we presented two plays, The Shepherd of Bethlehem and The Bracelet of Doom . In February, we tested our journalistic ability by taking over the publication of The Shield, our school newspaper. After Easter, we again took to the stage by presenting a thrilling romance of the Civil War entitled The Thread of Destiny . 1942-1943 Dignified Seniors! Could three years have passed so quickly? They did, and Father Time was now ready to see if we would fulhll the promise we made about being the best Senior Class . First aid, aeronautics and advanced math were added to an already crowded schedule. The sixteen Senior girls resolved to become good stenogs by mastering typing, shorthand and bookkeeping. We displayed patriotism, toog first, by attending a Victory Retreat given by Father Raphael, C.P.g and secondly, the Seniors' Victory Social. Three of the Seniors enlisted in the armed forces: Bernard Lease, Army Air Corps: Camillus Pfister and Raymond Mysliwczyk, United States Marine Corps. The busy Seniors took time out for class ring measuring. Excitement was keen when the time arrived for publication of the MICHAELINEANQ pictures had to be taken, etc. The anticipa- tion of Class Day has become of great interest as the days become fewer and fewer. One of the biggest events of the year will be the production of the Class Play, when the Seniors will present their last play as a class. We are now hopefully looking forward to the goal of the past four years- graduation! 1Vhat lies beyond, we do not know. But, why worry! Divine Provi- dence will protect and guide us in the future as in the past. lVflLDRI'1D H. Mlzviaks, '43 PM 15 - ' .X
