Depute f' T, HIS is. our Yearbook of 1950, with a marked decrease in size and number of pages. Such a reduction was necessary this year due to the paralyzing steel strike which this region experienced if. the autumjf of 1949. Realizing the crippling effect this catastrophe would produce on the people of Braddock, we, the Class of 1950, decided to curtail solicitation for financial aid, and to publish our Yearbook at a more moderate budget. Such action, however, does not indicate a lessening of pride and enthusiasm in the publication of our Annual. The Class of 1950-ppseesses all the interest in its Yearbook manifested by amr fther graduating class, and perhaps more.

This love is an imbodimcnt of the freindships we have made, the truths we have learned, and the ideals we have fought for. Behind this limelight, our confidence and pride, there is someone who has traveled with us through our years at St. Thomas, who has inspired us to fight for our ideals, and set ablaze the flame of truth enkindled in our hearts by the Holy Ghost. She is the one who has unselfishly shared her gifts of wisdom and understanding with each one of us in every joy and every disappointment. Under her vigilant care graduation means to us not an end, but a beginning of the fulfillment of all those noble aims which have been fostered in us. This “someone,” who means much to all of us, is none other than our esteemed principal, Sister M. Eunice, O.P., to whom the Senior Class of 1950 lovingly dedicates its Yearbook. cJ
