Mr. Gentil directs the band from the sidelines as it plays the Xavier Alma Mater. In Appreciation for Exceptional Service Fourteen years ago, Mrs. Lombardi came to St. Xavier High School to become the school registrar. Over the years, her work in this demanding position was out- standing. Efficient, neat, and well-versed in her duties, Mrs. Lombardi successfully performed the many tasks which her office entailed. Recording grades, computing averages, and preparing transcripts were but part of the daily work she cheerfully dispatched. On the occasion of her departure from Cincinnati this year, the St. Xavier High School faculty and student body wish to express their gratitude to Mrs. Lombardi for the ex- ceptional service she rendered during her years with the school. Father Menchen, the school librarian, addresses the student body at the Mass of the Holy Spirit.
