Ellen Kraeling, '43 Twelve 0'C1ock The Angelus llell in the Cathedral tolls! There is a hush. Everyone becomes tense-listen-oh, there it is, the school bell. But this time it rings, not merely for change in classes, but for lunch. On the way downstairs, one may hear remarks such as: If you save me a seat, I'll buy yott a 'hot dog,' l'Tell Sister to save me a cream-pull ' or, I hope Sister has something good today because I forgot my lunch. As the girls hurry down to the lunch room, warm tantali7ing aromas rise slowly from the kitchen to greet them. The sizzling crisp odor of buns toast- ing, the hot, spicy odor of spaghetti, the teasing flavor of hot dogs, the tangy goodness of baked beans. a tart whill' of tomato soup, the milky sweet- ness of cheese-all these scents mingle to form one great bouquet of fragrance. Girls, throw your papers in the basket. The oil-tune strains of HAPPY BIRTHDAY. llt is the custom of the seniors when one of their classmen has a birthday to present her with a birthday cake --candles on it, of coursej May I have some of your pop-corn? Oh, Mother put chocolate cake in my lunch! Give me a bite. Silly giggles, hilarious laughter. noise. confusion, all these sounds and words are prevalent when the seniors are at lunch. There is never a sad nor dissenting word while the girls are taking lunch. The seniors, for the moment, have forgotten the morning that seemed to go 'fall wrong, and the test that is to greet them in the afternoon. It is in the lnnchroom. at noon. that the seniors arc really united. They arcn't commercial and aca- demic students, girls on the high honor roll and girls merely passing. No, they are all one-a body of loyal, friendly girls. I-Iere the requisites of good citizenship-that is, tolerance, strict adherence to rules. cooperation. and trustworthiness are prac- ticed daily. Whether a girl has eaten a bag of potato chips for her lunch or three healthy sandwiches, she manages to consume her food in titne for dancing in the auditoritnn. So, after lunch, the girls, nihf bling at candy bars, go into the gym. One can hear the call for Grace to come play just one piece, but she hntls herself playing for the entire lunch period. Time passes all too quickly. While Janie is teach- ing Mary the 'Avery latest step. we hear a bell. Everything tnust stop: we seniors again plll on our cloaks of dignity. for that hell tells tts that classes are resumed. We wouldn't trade this lunch period, so typical of Cathedral. for any other. The fun, the excitement of this period will always he remembered and cherished in the hearts of cyery senior. Joan Rigby '41

Sl -XFF NIENIBERS OF THIC C.XTHlilJRALI'l'li REYIIQXYING THE EXCIHXNGES. Your School Paper XVhen you see girls hurriyng through the halls with deeply furrowed brows, you may conclude that the Cathedralite is about to go to press. Now, do not think that these same girls do not enjoy this last minute rush, lor, while it is rather wearing on onels nervous system, it is a chiel' contributor in making a seniorls year more pleasant. In the June issue ol' '40, we were given an opportunity to prove our capability in publishing the paper. Tirelessly we worked over the artiflesg for, it was agreed that we should try to make this issue better than any ol' the preceding ones. But just how could this be accomplished? That was the problem! XVQ lelt that the solution to our problem would be the addition of several new feature articles. Co-editors Nancy 'lean Hicks and Grace Becker initiated the col- umn, A'Curtain Going Up, in which the girls gave their opinions on the latest stage and screen productions. Other featured articles begun were Have You Heardf This 'nl That, and YVhy Daddies Crow Baldf' A SPRING SON G Ou! of ll IUIIVPII Il7'01t'l1 zvilller 11011 A rlaisvv 1211511171 lim' tiny llflld, To blink ll Slflfflj' eye and say I 1111110 111111 .spring is lterr' to stay. 1.

Equipped with a new name and with new columns, our paper progressed and became a source of pride for every student. XVC be- came members of the Pennsylvania School Press Association, and through the active work ol' our exchange editors, Nellie l,autih and Patricia Kearns, became acquainted with many new papers in various parts of the country. Our Sodality editor. Ann Dor- sey, kept us well-informed ol' Sodality activi- ties by her outstanding column. To say, then, that we stall' members re- luctantly leave the Clathedralite in the hands of our competent juniors is a gross understatement. As one we agree that we have been repaid many times over lor the small troubles the paper has entailed. XVe shall carry the Cathedralite memoirs'l tucked away in a special corner ol' our hearts. They will always remain. Nancy Jean Hicks, 'fll FIRST CHRISTMAS You 1t'1'rr' 1't't't1f2jJml .to fl'!1tl!'l'l-V lu 1t'11il1' szvnrldlitzg r'l0ll1r'.S.
