The Reverend Cleo Schmenk, Lima, Ohio, conducted the students' annual retreat January 29 and 30. On these two days the students regrouped their spiritual forces. The outline of a good retreat includes daily Mass, the best confession of your life, fervent Communion, sacrifice, and spiritual reading, explainedlzather. Later Father Schmenk stated, The vocation of being a student is our vocation now. Students must evaluate themselves in accordance with the talents that they have. The retreat, above all else, involves personal effort. Each person must make his own retreat and evaluation, because he is an individual with special graces, talents, and needs. 31 Junior representatives Jerry Rospert and Nancy Frederick help Nora Ruffing, Vice-presidentg and Jim Ott, Treasurer, prepare for the annual tag day. As long as you did it for one of these, the least of My brethern, you did it for Me. These words of Our Lord point out clearly the reason behind the Mission Crusade. Prayer, study, and sacrifice are the means that students usually choose. At St. Paul's, organized work for the missions is usually carried out by the Catholic Students Mission Crusade. Study, both in school and out, helps us to understand what the missions are doing and how we can help in their work of protecting and explaining the Catholic Faith. In October the sophomores held a bake sale for the missions. To drum up business Dennis Dible spent the morning walking the streets of Norwalk. As a result of the sophomores efforts the missions received a nice sum. Ronnie Ware, Presidentg Rita Pheifer, Secretaryg Arivederci and O Solo Mio run through Father Wi1helm's mind as he shows his slides of Rome to Don Smith and Doug Gates. Ann Vartorella acts as godmother ofthe baby Father Bgdaft uses his maps to Show Donald doll while Father Steinle demonstrates the Wise, Daniel Burrill and Doug Spettel where Process of BEPUSUW- Jesus lived. Father Steinle employs film strips to stress the major points in sociology class. The predominant spirit at St. Pau1's is the spirit of religion. The religious program is based on the needs of the individual. Knowledge of religion is essential if he wishes to please God in his daily actions and gain a high place in heaven. In high school he learns Catholic principles so that he may use them to his advantage during his later adult life. Religion and scholastic education together prepare him to become a thinking Catholic citizen in the adult world. 33 i Words to a poet are like paint to a painter. Ellen Riggleman, Dennis Smith, Anna Jauk, Steve Sanger, ' Dianne Dempsey, Edward Meyer, read aloud to their S classmates. Is it who or whom? Nancy Wise tries to decide this in an English I test. Will she succeed? What's happening to Dan? When Dan Sullivan burst into the room, kicked the door, and doubled up in pain, the senior English class wondered what had possessed him. If you had been in the hall when Sister Madonna told the class that they were now to write a story about the occurrence, you would have heard sighs of mingled relief and irritation at being so badly fooled. 34 fl Will the class guess that Carol Prystas, Jim Cook, Mike Ryan, and Art Miller are acting out the Barbara Fritchie story?

Primitive man took a long time to come to the conclusion that three horses, three mice, and three houses all had something in common--the number three. It took even longer to develop systems that used letters for a series ofnumbers, that used one side to measure the width of a river, or that used numbers to locate places that couldn't be seen. But when these were discovered precise scientific thought became possible. Mathematics, the queen of the sciences, made possible such things as navigation, and rocket recovery. Students today can cover much of this area in four short years. They begin with general mathematics where they learn how numbers are used in daily life. Later, if they wish, they may progress to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and solid geometry. When a mathematics lover graduates, he has a basic understanding of the universal language of math and can proceed to advanced studies. 40 Solid geometry kept Robert Heyman and Shirley Smith busy during the second semester. James Wasiniak tells Robert Reichert that it sometimes takes years to explain these long problems. Will the answer come out the same twice '?

Late at night after most students have left, a light may be seen from the top floor of the high school building. It is a lone light shinning from the journalism room. Inside are the staff members scurring about in hopes of meeting the fast approaching deadlines of the school paper and the yearbook. Typists are busy rectifying the copy while the business committee is frantically checking and rechecking their patrons and sponsors. Simultaneously the picture committee is busy planning, selecting and pasting down pictures. Other staffmembers try to make eight words fit in the space of two. Journalism means a lot of work, coupled with a lot of fun. It gives students an opportunity to work together to accomplish something which will be a source of help, inspiration and memories for others.

An individual combinds his single voice with other individual voices to form a glee club. Without the individual, the glee club would be nothing. Without the other voices, the individual would be almost silent. The St. Paul's Glee Club is a unit within the school. ln its songs it expresses the feelings of the students body. At the Christmas play the glee club echoed the spirit of the student body as it filled the auditorium with the songs of that glorius season. At graduation the glee club is there. The glee club represents the underclassm en as they cooperate with the graduates in preforming the exercises of commencement. Agood glee club is a strong link in the curriculum of any school.

By 10:30 p. rn. on November 12, 1961 the answers to all pre-season worries had been filed away as history. And the history read like a trail of glory. A new coach and a young team had battered out a record winning- streak of five straight. The old total number of points in one season record survived by a mere four points. The team's overall record of seven wins, two losses, and one tie has been bettered only by the 1955 squad with a 6-l record. Coach Irvin stated that the team possessed tremendous desire to improve and strong determination to win, coupled with ability and willingness to work. Along with this, the spirit shown by the St. Paul's fans helped spur the squad onto victory and the final favorable season. Thus the Flyers have ended their season with a good record to their credit.

Although the record is not impressive, the spirit and the determination to win was so. Desire, and hard work combined to enable the Flyers to beat Avon and Berlin Heights and give South Central, ateam which has won easily during the regular season, a rough battle in the county tournament. Dick Parish captain, was the leading scorer with a 16.1 points per game average. Jim Wasiniak was second with all. 2 average, and a total ofl68 rebounds. Jerry Rospert trailed with a 7. l average.

Physical condition is one of the main factors in a winning track team. When a boy is in top condition he and his track team will go a long way. Every spring boys will be found lifting weights, running laps, doing calisthenics as well as practicing their own special event. By early April the team is ready for several meets with other schools. Weight lifting firms up the muscles of the track squad while it increases their endurance.

St. Paul, the patron of our school is symbolized by the open Bible in the center ofthe shield. The waves and star have been taken from the coat of arms of the Sisters of Notre Dame, who form a strong link in our chain of unity.
