HUIHIIIISTHHTIUH REVEREND GERALD A. OWENS Pastor of Saint Philip Church Pastor, friend and spiritual director--that is our Father Owens. You, Father, have watched and helped us progress both in our spiritual and scholastic undertakings. Your little talks in the confes- sional and sermons from the pulpit have straightened us out and brought us closer to God. Your pep talks in the classrooms have shown us your love and interest, encouraging us when we're in trouble to talk things over with you. We, the Class of 51, have aspecial reason to be grateful to you, for it was you who gave us the permission and encouraged us to build the grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes. To you we say, Thanks a lot, Father, and may God bless you. We hope many students will have the privilege of knowing you as we did, A friend we can always depend on.
