Calculated to express symbolically the traditions and ideals associated with a school directed by the Resurrectionist Fathers, this great fish, the most regal of swimmers, aptly responds to the purpose. The ngreat fish of Jonahh has been the most popular symbol of the Resur- rection of Our Lord. The Greek ICTHUS tagain, ufishU announces the initial letters of Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour. The earliest Christians invariably resorted to the simple stratagem of sketching an outline of the fish to identify each other and to confound the pagans in their midst. It served, therefore, as a proud emblem of Christians in general. Finally, this swiftest of all fish long has marked the speed With which Christians should seek Christ. Thus, replete with Christian symbolism, we Cherish this DOLPHIN e as it demonstrates the most important article of our Faith, the Resur- rected Saviour, and as it charts the course for Christian students who, in study and in play, pursue Him Who is wisdom in order to serve Him more zealously. .;.:;. $773ms me ., ; Ezag-rwi. ii 35.52: aim, 422;: WQAQV xjagA SCAOOI conclucfecl 4L! tAe gaflaers of tAe qusmrrection Clu'cago, yllinois Affiliations OEice of the Superintendent of Public Instruction University of Illinois North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools National Catholic Educational Association 9 5 presented by the students of WEBER HIGH SCHOOL '1 A;..'-.':' ' : iflgaimli $954. ;g.ghizlhijLEQLmeQEWLg:AE-Eslfaiil'iri,F ZZM;;:1: .7 .9 17??

It is par- ticularly through our parental organizations that we realize in practice the teaching of the Church that parents are the first edu- cators of their children and that Weber High School exists and operates to help parents in this great task. Dea'r mother and father, while we salute you through these memory pages, we thank you for your example, for your gift to us of a Catholic education, for your prayers. Dear parents, we thank you for you yourselves - our greatest blessing. I . ' G . - - - - , . . - . .. .. . . . ' . o u. - z '0 ' ' I - ' O ' . . o - u -' 0 ' . . .

Indeed, the parents, even before the rcbool, are under a grave obligation to see to the religious and moral education as well as the physi- cal and civic training of their children. erber High School then is the devoted instrument of the parent; it is the work of charity by Which the Church, the Archdiocese, and the Fathers of the Resurrection offer to the parents the opportunity to supplement and complement their own God- given work as the first teachers of their children. It is on this basis e the basis of cooperation a that Weber High and the parents of Weberites meet in their mutual responsibility to educate. Precisely this Wholesome cooperation between our parents and our school is saluted in the 1958 DOLPHIN. We need not take refuge behind high- sounding phrases and glittering generalities to demonstrate this splendid cooperation. We have seen the love of our parents for their sons in their devoted interest e more! their participation a in school events; we delighted in the encouragement mother and father have given the school in its great assignment by informing themselves about Weberis aims; we gloried in the praise heaped upon our school for a task well done; we partici- pated in the satisfaction parents experience When they know that their sons are intelligent children of God, heirs of heaven, American Catholics. 'The education of man begins at the cradle; and the first school, which nothing can replace, is that of the domestic heart . Pius XII tAugust, 1951i QQ . . . the younger generations must be trained in the arts and sciences for the advantage and prosperity of civil society, and since the family of itself is unequal to this task, it was necessary to create that social insti- tution, the school? Pius XI tDecember, 1929i RIt is necessary not only that reli- gious instructions be given to the young at certain fixed times, but also that every other subject be perme- ated with Christian piety. If this is wanting, . . . little good can be ex- pected from any kind of learning. Leo XIII tMay, 1897i THE SCHOOL Irma V'Q C.R. 1versxty 9 KARLOWICZ FR. EDWIN F . Principal of Weber High School Master of Arts, St. Louis Un Y xxx, , ,, , WNW$ kwgg :7 xxx ,9? $2127 In a day when efficiency is the keynote of pro- gress e whether in the smooth functioning of an entire nation or merely of a home kitchen - the personal touch can easily be relegated to obscurity. Yet, efficiency and the personal touch must both be evident and operative in the huge undertaking every school represents. The educational process requires ingenuity, imagination, interest, and ideal- ism on the part of the Principal. While his busy day is filled with myriad details, efficiency and the personal touch are united. He must organize the curriculum to function with optimum efficiency while still allowing for a certain amount of choice by incorporating electives. He must watch over not only the religious instruction e which is foremost, the reason for the very existence of a Catholic school e but every other branch of learning. 3am ma m, In his responsible task of educating Catholic youth to be intelligent, practical Catholic American citizens, out Reverend Principal is assisted by a teaching staff which matches his dedication and by Catholic parents whose cooperation demon- strates their deep concern for their sons. Indeed, since the responsibility of education rests mutually on parents and school, we can say, without fear of irreverence, that the Principal is the hyphen in the patent-school relationship. He is the liaison be- tween parent and school; he keeps the closest and most personal contact with both the parents and their sons. He is the keystone to the sound and solid edifice representing Weberis educational en- deavors. While recognizing that the school is the instrument of the parents, he efhciently directs the school to ensure the realization of its aim e the formation of Catholic gentlemen, men of character. 1a THE VERY REV.

The immedi- ate objective of this course is an explicit explana- tion of the Ten Commandments. Included among the integral parts of the course are the reading reports designed to give a more detailed under- standing and the discussions of many topics related to the commandments. As a result of this particu- latized study, the students personal problems are clarified, doubts can be resolved, and conscience formed. Upon the completion of the Moral Guide ance course, the Webetite can reflect upon the in- structions and realize that his concise and definite knowledge of what God has commanded has made the sometimes obscured road to heaven more Clearly illuminated. Yet, this is only half of the schools contribu- tion to the students spiritual nourishment. llHave the courage of your convictions, Weber seems to say.

The: true Christian does not renounce the activities of this life, he does not stunt his natural faculties- but he develops and perfects them by coordinating them with the supernatural. He thus ennobles what is merely natural in life and receives for it new strength in the material and temporal order no less than in the spiritual and eternal. Rfigbt: Fr.

Confronted by necessity, he was able to discover new things, better things than he had even thought possible. When he needed to cook his meat, he found fire; when he needed a cart for his work, he discovered the wheel. Even today man has not stopped his searching; the solutions to mysteries of the uni- verse still beckon him. And each time some new Object was invented, a new theory formulated, man wrote down his discoveries, so that in the thousands of years that have gone by since the creation of Adam, we have in out possession a vast reservoir of knowledge. In the form of books, this knowl- edge is in the libraries of the world, the treasure- LWi 5 9w mm ? a ;, trove of all known things. On the shelves of every library in every country are contained the works of philosophers, moralists, scientists, linguists, and historians. These works represent thousands of years of work and millions of hours of toil. Each volume is a part of the very life of its creator: the book contains his thoughts, his ideals, his very soul. If then the individual parts of the library are little bits of humanity, the whole must then be a representative of the entire human race since the beginning of time. In truth, the library can be used as a measure of the culture of the world, as a yardstick for evaluating human ideals and ideas, as a storehouse for the aspira- tions of mankind and their fulfillment.

English is this great tool for us. With a firm knowledge of grammar and com- position, our ideas are accurately and readily expressed. Inseparable from the mechanics of English are the products of the labors of our literary forefathers, related directly to us by the bond of a common language. The ability to express oneself correctly and understand the communicated ideas of others has been most thoroughly ingrained in us at Weber. This ability has en- abled us to realize the majesty of times past, the immense opportuni- ties of the present, and the hope of times to come. Page 27 Left: J. Lazarz, D. Marleski, J. Wojcik, C.

In this modern world of ours we are completely surrounded by the various wonders of scienceem every phase of our lives; scientific and technological ogy, chemistry, and physics. The biologist studies the many and varied forms of life; the chemist Studies the composition of matter and its changes; the physicis: advances are combining forces to make our lives even more enjoyable. .The close relationship between the sciences and our daily lives is the basic reason why the different fields of scientiflc study are so fascinating to students. For us to take full advantage of these new advances, we must thoroughly understand the fundamental precepts of the three basic sciences, biol- studies the physical changes of matter and energy. Through lectures, demonstrations, and actual labora- tory experiments, our mental storehouse of scientiht knowledge steadily increases, and our appreciation for the world around us and the God who created it constantly gains momentum.

A short poem calms the most distraught soul. The communication of a lone scientist pushes back the horizons of the physical sciences. A great manls speech effects war or peace. A prayer, whispered in solitude, soothes the soul while its petition rises heavenward. Such is language. Unless a diplomat masters the culture of the country he is Visiting, he will not be successful. And what is culture if not the aspira- tions after the true, the good, the beautiful made external through speech. With every novel, play, opera, with every document, poem, idea, a nation externalizes its culture for all to know. What benefits are there from knowing a language well? For most of us, language is an airship transporting us from our reading room to gay Paris, scenic Switzerland balmy Mediter- ranean, adventurous Africa. The interest we have in that language may be compared to the motors; while the mastery we possess may be compared to the wings. The characters we meet M. Borun, C. Gorski, R. Brach, and W.

In Latin, mother of civilized language, we read about Caesar, we read the orations 0f Cicero, the Aeneid 0f Vergil. We studied the skilled pattern of its ideal grammar. We were even surprised to find that the Latin used by the Church, the Latin used by the medical profession, the Latin which served as the universal tongue by centuries of devoted scholars, is the very Latin in which some of the greatest love stories and mysteries have been written. The informal course in classic Greek proved to be a real challenge even though it was not as complicated as its mySteri- ous symbols seemed to suggest. ,WMWWM Wm WWW megwer-J matAemafical Sciences J.

Since there is only one correct answer for each problem and one meth- od Which is most correct to solve it, the vast field of mathematics is a study in perfection. h From our study in the variOus branches of aldlyliea mathematics we acquire a drive to strive for Ofengmeei perfection in all our actions. Thus mathematics Slem pan becomes a most useful tool in our lives.

But mathematics serves us yet In tlnueWith. another way Which is equally importanF and :Emathem eminently more praCtical and direct: it IS the 0nf0rthe Page 52 in high school becomes more obvious. It is the comprehension of out high school courses in mathematics which allows us to continue our education and the development of our minds. Here at Weber High we have the opportunity to take a well-balanced curriculum in the study of mathematics. As freshmen, we study Algebra; as sophomores, Plane Geometry; as juniors Advanced Alge- bra; and as seniors, Trigonometry and Solid Geometry. Each of these courses is a pte-tequisite for the following one and the ensemble enables us to enter into and to understand more easily the higher mathematical and physical sciences . . . and life in general. xs'sw 7 a Left: R.

As mathe- matics serves as a tool in our lives generally, It IS also, in a particular fashion, the tool of the Physicist, the chemist, the biologiSt, and the engineer. Without mathematics there could hardly be a study of physics, chemistry, biology, 91' engineering. Actually, mathematics is the 31km pattnerb of each of these different SClences even though its influence on them can- not be immediately or readily seen by the aver- age high school student. However, as we con- t1flue with our education, our appreciation for the mathematical sciences deepens and the rea- son for the great stress placed on mathematics Page 33 Aysical aolucation Stable a horse in a maple-fioored gymP'TYes!

Services Organizations and insritutions muSt divide their labors: there 15 the main job to be done and the complementary task. The hll-in tasks are very important, for Wlthout them the system cannot run smooth- ly and efhciently. Such is the work of Brother Anthony Wrzesinski, CR. and Mrs. Wanda Godzich. Brother Tony came to Weber just this second semester. His help as clerk in the administration offices has proven jndispenslble. Mrs. God- zlch has been with us a long time - the right hand of many a teacher, student, and club. Operating the office machines, answering tele- phones, hling, typing - these are only a few of the multiple tasks she performs.

Stude SlVe 1 Other ofXX Prosa Gflli'cers of tAe Class of ,58 In a school, good leadership by students means a lot of things. Good leaders help achieve the pur- poses of the school, interpret the best of school spirit, reHeCt its friendship, and establish cooperation With the faculty. The senior class officers, after the experi- ence gained in their freshman, sophomore, and junior years, learned to assume the initiative in assisting the school and the student body and in accepting respon- sibility. If a good leader is one Who has connections, our Senior class officers succeeded in acquiring them by their service to the principal, the faculty, and the Students. The connections came through the aggres- sive and judicious use Of their talents for the good of Others and not in a mere race for popularity. Our Class Of 58 officers represent a Cross-section of Weber High that can be described best, if rather prosaically, as typical. Tom Krysinski, a steady and At the dedicatory plaque, the graduating class oHicers: Frederick Kowalik, Treasurer; Ray- mond Koziol, Vice-President; Alfred Karnicki, Secretary; Thomas Krysinski, President. enthusiastic performer and team-man both on the athletic field and in the classroom, managed, with Ray Koziol, to be the heart of the social committee and to lead the cheers for our athletes When neither he nor Ray were actual performers. Alf Kamicki, one of our leading students, accepted the more retiring role of writer and aid in the school's journalistic endeavors and, in his accustomed officer posr, worked with Tom and Ray in making school life even more attraCtive. Each of these youths diStinguished himself by his knowing way of volunteering, assisting, and putting his best fOOt forward in Studies or in extra- curricular activities. There was a conscious effort on their part to show that XVeber is a great school. Fred Kowaiik transferred his good-natured personality from the hardwood court to the senior Class board to co- opemte with the other leaders. RONALD ROSS ANZALONE-Nobel P. S.

It grew to such proportions that it was foremost in the minds of the Juniors and, for a time, dispelled the delightful memories of an almosr completed summer vacation. School! School Will soon be here! But as the advent of the new school year ap- proached with the passing days, visions of gay . times ahead rose into prominence: formals, sock- 't hops, football games on Sunday afternoons, sleep- ing late on those all too short weekends Which make the necessary, but sometimes tedious, process of learning more endurable.

Even though they were only the lower tier of the top bracket and used the same halls and corridors of the building which they ven- tured along as Sophomores, the Juniors walked these same corridors with the sense of a new-found dignity and pride. The school remained the same as it was when the students departed for the summer vacation, but the Juniors seemed to think it dimin- ished e or did they, perhaps, grow? The spell of mystery hung in the air. The unknown enveloped the new uppetclassmen. Expectancy centered about the demands which would be placed on these vet- erans in the scholastic year just beginning.

Nelson With introductions to the various new subjects over, no time was wasted in getting into the swing of things. JuSt as Juniors of previous years these lads heard e or imagined they heard - fearful accounts of what would happen to them. But as the year progressed, it was easy to see that the atrocities were born in the imagination of some character who tried to justify his own failings. The serious business of studying was the order of the day. Third year high school rushed along, propelled on the wings of studies, activities, studies, socials, studies, and exams. We did it before, so we know that the Juniors sat up to all hours cramming for the semester hnals, cheered at the football games, participated in the sock-hops, managed homework. All this somehow meshed together to spell out Junior year. The Christmas vacation was enthusiastically wel- comed and passed on all too quickly. Buckle downll to studies for the semester finals; buckle down to prayer for the annual retreat. The year began to wane: January sank into February and became March. A note of sadness touched the school generally and the Juniors in a special manner . . . the serious illness and death of Steve Petersen of Jr. 205. March suddenly turned into April and its short respite for Easter. May and June Again in June as in January there was more cramming for examinations. But this t1me there was a deeper awareness that What they worked for so diligently was close at hand . . . promotion and the senior year. Juniors now look back on the past year with a two- -fold reaction: an experience of Joy for having negotiated yet another rung on the ladder of life an experience of sadness because those wonderful times will now be only memories. Our legacy to you, Juniors, is the good word. Look forward! Trust in the knowledge that you have capable teachers walking beside you, guiding you, showing you the way. These same dedicated men have led you, grasping your hands in their Own, but they expect that you will now lead . . . by example and dedication. Your goal is that same one we have now attained e graduation, at once the end and the beginning. The end of high school and all the help, the beginning of life on our own without the assuring clasp of our teachers hand. We Seniors believe our positions are in good hands for next year. Lead and prove us right! Row 1 : L. Nied J. Nowak S. Nowak W. Nowak K. Nykiel R. Obartuch Row 2: R. Odwazny T. O,Malley A. Parisi J. Pawelek J. Pelican S. Petersen Row 3 : J. Planz J. Podjasek T.

This year they were SOPH- OMORES. There was no evidence of uncertainty or doubt as they acknowledged their fellow Class- mates with loud and robust greeting. These boys, who had borne the burden of two semesters as freshmen, were now eager to return to the freshies the jeers and catcalls to which they had to accustom themselves last year. No longer were they the lldumb froshji llstupid freshies, lilowest of the low. Now they could return all they had re; ceived . . . maybe with interest!

They learned how to cut cor- ners, only they called it ubudgeting time effective- lyf, Most important of all, they learned how to study for their examinations. This year saw their initiation into a variety of social events. Sophs vigorously supported all the events they could participate in. Not a sock hop, skating party, or informal dance went by that Soph- omores did not attend in large numbers. At first unsure and uncertain, they soon became confident and poised. But privileges had their counterpart in cares and worries. Their studies required more work and so also did the many activities in which the Sophomores were involved. r. ,.. .Kgx . .1 maxwugazmw,w SOPAOMOVQS As freshmen they were carried along as dead weight on many of the clubs and the teams of the W2: k school.

But there came Latin 11 and Plane Geometry combined With World History to plague them and take their toll on frustrated Sophs. They soon regretted that they could not have once more those subjects Which now seemed strangely simple compared to the rugged second-yeat matter.

T hey were truly the backbone. But they even were able to infiltrate the Varsity teams and things augur well for a greater participation next year. As the second semester started, the Sophs be- came the dignified and studious pupils they had promised themselves they would be. But . . . this spell soon deserted them with the coming of spring when their thoughts turned to the sunny outdoors. They appeared with the Varsity football squad in March and soon afterwards crossed mashies with the upperclassmen for berths on the golf team. SOPAOVVIOVQS 4.? o .w 3? As the final sen esrer exams approached, it was not without much difficulty that they really re- turned to their books. It was during these last few weeks that the boy matured into a young man. Next year they will return as UPPERCLASSMEN. They already learned the intricate workings of the school and its organizations and they are now ready to assume, at least in part, the leadership of the Student Body. It was during these first two years of high school that they had been molded into young Christian men. It was during their sopho- more year that they picked the courses which would determine the pattern of study for the reSt of their lives. Row5: Row 6: Rowl: R. Smith R. Smith J. Sochacki Row 2: J.

A Freshman is a com- mon variety homo sapiens usually found in his earliest teens, inhabiting tor preying uponU every high school. The Freshman is easily recog- nized by his dazed expression and his air of utter confusion which, with the completion of his first year of high school changes to an air of utter superi- ority. We were there a few years ago ourselves; we know! Upon entering high school, the Weberite Fresh- man is a young man possessing a mixture of virtues and faults, hesitantly clinging to his secure and carefree boyhood. Guided by the teachers who carry on the work of his parents, he gradually takes the giant step from childhood to manhood. Where can you fmd a Freshman?

A freshman is seldom seen alone. Hels a gregarious animal. There is always someone going his way and there is always something to talk about. Favorite places of the Freshmen are the cafeteria, the Seat of Wisdom Chapel, and the gym. The cafeteria and the gym satisfy his bodily needs; the chapel, his spiritual needs. In the gym and in the cafeteria he finds relaxation from the routine of books as he talks With his friend over the lunch table or the parallel bars. In the quiet chapel, he finds relaxation from the strains of life as he talks to Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.

To God he owes his life, free from fault, in repayment for all the blessings bestowed on him by his Creator. To his parents, he owes his sincerest efforts to do well in his studies, in repayment for the years of sacrifice that they have given him. To himself he owes the inner satisfaction of a task well done; for there will be times when there will be no one to praise him, pat him on the back. These responsibilities are all part of the new life he will lead as an adult. In the Freshman we see an individ- ual developing; a personality blossoms. 5565 a .

As a matter of fact, we are proud of our accomplishments. The heart and soul of every yearbook is its theme. The problem which naturally arises is to choose the one that is concise, imaginative, comprehensive, ap- propriate, Virile, and, of course, new. Thus our theme originated, illustrating the close cooperation exiSting between Webetites, their parents, and their school. Departing from the format established in previous years, we have added another important section to the DOLPHIN - a dedication. Since this scholastic year marks the silver anniversary of the Mothers, Club, it seemed very appropriate to us to pay tribute to that benevolent organization. But what about the Fathers, Club? Also celebrating a jubilee year, havedt they been as kind, Charitable, and understanding as the Mothers Club? And how can we forget those fathers and mothers who, for one reason or another, are un- able to join either of these groups? With these factors in mind, we have dedicated this yearbook to the parents of all Webetites. Carefully we planned the scenes for out pictures -- constantly striving to give them our spirit of newness. Out writing too must reflect that spirit. We sought to be fresh and Vivid for we intended to produce a book and not just a compilation of pictures. We endeavored to record both the facts and the spirit of this school year and strived therefore to have both out words and out pictures furnish plenty of specific faCts, colorful details, and personalities. We insisted on demonstrat- ing that Weber High School is doing a fine job . . . and that our cooperative parents approve. In short, we wanted to show that being at Weber High is a rewarding experience e- both in and out of formal Classrooms e and we want everyone to know it!

To assist at Mass is to speak to God, to pray. But when thoughts wander, the prayerful spirit dissipates itself and, before the lad knows, a good part of the Mass may have elapsed. There must be some way to enable him to concentrate on his prayer. The Choir ideally fulfills this purpose. Not only does it maintain the spiritual atmosphere during Mass, but it is a beautiful way in which to render adoration to God. Those who do not sing in the Choir can worship better also, because the liturgical music tends to in- 'spire the soul with sentiments of its own, arousing in the person a more perfect, a more sincere prayer. In- deed, St. Gregory the Great, an ardent lover of music, SACRISTANS-The busiest morning hour for most students is about 7:30 when the mad scramble for break- fast, books, and bus begins. At this same time one priest prepares for Mass in the Seat of Wisdom Chapel. The sacristans are at their best. Vest- ments are set out, chapel prepared. Wheres the finger towel? Fresh amice for Father? iVVhite or black vestments? Some days are unusually calm - as we see here. J. Malczyk lights the candles, E. Szarek prepares the cruets, and R. DeChristopher helps Fr. Ciesla vest for Mass. Page 79 once wrote, iiHe who sings, prays twice Our Choir has sung at the initiation ceremonies of the Mothers Club, at the Jubilee Mass of the parent organizations, and at the centennial Mass commem- orating the apparition of Our Lady of Lourdes when the solemn occasion was celebrated at the Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica. Yet, the greatest service the Choir gives to the school is the singing at the Friday Masses, at the benediction services during retreat, and at graduation day Mass. It is at these events, alternating simple Gregorian chant with elaborate polyphonic hymns, that the Choir demonstrates its versatility, adaptability, and mastery of sacred music. If a sincere expression of ones feelings and emo- tions may be called poetry, members of the Heralders must be called poets. A Vivid imagination, a keen sense of timing, an acute perseverance are only three of the earmarks of the talented actor. His mind con- centrates 0n the Character he is portraying.

During a Catholic Action meeting in France years ago, three new groups were formed. These were the Christian Family Movement, the Young Christian Workers, and the Young Christian Students. The lat- ter movement spread quickly throughout the world and especially in the United States. The Young Chris- tian Students was organized at Weber only two years ago and has grown to its present size of twelve members. The Young Christian Students is a Catholic Action group. What does that mean? Catholic Action is a group of people working together to instill Catholic morals and principles among friends and associates. This can be done in many ways and among various groups of people. Catholic Action works quietly, at- tracts no great publicity, seeks no fame. Example is its particular watchword. What does the Young Chris- tion Student desire to do? In our everyday life as students we invariably encounter many ideas and aetions nor fully in accord with Christian thought. Most of us just give a half-heatted shrug of our shoulders and go about out business. But the Young Christian Student doesnlt let that happen. Instead, he analyzes the idea or action. Observe it: how many people do this? Is the idea prevalent in school? What action do others take, if any? Thus, armed with the facts, he can begin his work in an accurate and effi- cient manner. The next step is to judge: is the action morally good, bad, or indifferent? For what reasons are these actions done? If the answers to all of the previous questions show that there is sufficient reason for taking active steps, the Young Christian Student will suggest them and then the group will agree on a course of action. Aside from the above social inquiries, there are two other important units in the work of the YCS. These are the Gospel and the Liturgy. Each week, a passage from the Gospels is discussed. This is meant to be mOIe than a superficial glance at the meanings of the words of the Bible. It is meant to explain as fully as possible the ideas and motivations which are behind each word and action of the characters of the Gospel. The Liturgy is equally important: the Mass, the Sacraments are studied with a particular emphasis on the doctrinal and historical content. Why do the Young Christian Students work within the framework of the three units? From the Gospel Study, the member learns the life of Christ. From the Liturgy, he learns the essential of his Faith and how to explain it to others. In the Social Inquiry he puts these ideas to use. Thus he himself becomes a well- informed, practicing Catholic. In spite of the size of our group, the Weber YCS has wielded much influence and has contributed a great deal to the organization of the national group, Senior Dennis Sanders was elected Chicago Federa- tion President for this year. Weber was primarily responsible in starting the YCS Chicago Federation newspaper which is periodically distributed among our city schools. The STAMP CLUB fulfills an important little job in the school. Besides exchanging stamps among them- selves and enlarging their own collections, the members collect and sort cancelled stamps to aid the mis- sions. While Fr. Blaski, the Moderator, looks on, R. Kilian unloads another box of stamps. Is that the Weber Band? llWow! Are they sharp! These were some of the reactions of the astonished crowds as they gazed in awe at the very colorful and well drilled band matching in ca- denced precision. Fortunate enough to obtain one of the largest memberships since its organization, the Band this year showed what diligent work and wholehearted cooperateion could accomplish. The Band performed at all the football games; even the poor weather and wet field in Evanston at the Loyola game did not dampen their high spirit or curtail their appearance. The cold Chicago weather that greeted the arrival of Santa on State Street saw our stalwarts, colorful and confident, marching time to the proud music. The TV cameras then were kept busy as our lads executed a few dazzling patterns on the asphalt. The Band was also part of the Nurses Day Parade paying tribute to those devoted to the ill and needy. The Veterans of Foreign Wars called us ,way out to Elgin and we did ourselves proud. The Marching Band also took part in the Cleanup Parade, an annual civic event sponsored by his Honor, the Mayor. Weber High School experienced a vicarious thrill witness- ing the spectacular performance of this singular group. Could we remain modest when our Band was acclaimed as one of the Cityls best? Under the capable and devoted direction of Mr. Glenn Smith, the Marching Band even spawned a qu marcAing anal Concert Banal Brass Choir. A novelty, indeed, to see and heat about a dozen brass horns serenading Sisters, Con- vents with old carols at Chtistmastime. The brass boys appeared at the La Salle Street Station bring- ing Christmas cheer to harried travelers. Other appearances, highly appreciated, were at the Resur- surectionist Seminary in Winnetka and our own Social Hall for the Mothers Club yule patty. Music has always been an essential factor in the lldo or die spirit of every Weberite. Various for- mations and exceptional playing all contributed to the enthusiasm of the crowds at athletic contests. By providing fans with only the best in half-time entertainment, the Band added that extra-some- thing to Weber football games. A typical perform- ance of the Band was given at the play-off game with Mendel. After a tremendous introduction by the trumpet section that hushed the amazed crowd in the stands, the Band went into highly technical and intricate maneuvers out-lining a Spanish dance and gigantic letters. Climaxed by the singing of the Weber Fight Song, this became a memorable experience for all. The Concert Band under the experienced tute- lage of Mr. John Sovinec proved that it could per- form with the best. Playing only the more advanced compositions, the Band has become a genuine syma phonic organization.

Guests and alumni agreed Without hesitation that the 1957-58 Band was the best in Weber history. The concert included rousing matches, the Gloria, the eXOtic Zacatecm. The Car- men Sm'te evoked the visions of Spanish Gypsies; selections from My Fair Lady set the auditorium to humming the delightfully popular tunes. The Band has always considered it a privilege to spread joy and pleasure Via its music. T '5 year the Band, combining talents with the Glee Club, pre- sented a concert to the XWar Veterans at the D w- ney Naval Hospital. The program included many of the tested and well-received selections of the annual concert. The Band is a huge venture. The Moderator, Ft. Fred Ciesla, CR, and the directors have been con- stantly aided by the parents of the students. It was the MothersT Club that provided the Band with those sharp uniforms. Many of the members fortu- nately enter the Band with some, albeit rudimen- tary. musical experience. Tlis too is a result of the effort and sacrifice made by the cooperative ptlrents.

With this high target to aim for, the Staff soon fell into the spirit; and a new outlook, new ideas, new thoughts were discussed. The hope of making each issue successively better than the previous one prevailed throughout the year. The staff soon became one family with the members learning the principles of group living: while di- viding the chores of interviewing, writing, typing, lay-out, and pasteup, they learned to depend on each other a great deal.

It contains all the discoveries of man, all the thoughts, all desires. Man originally recorded his thoughts on walls of caves. But he advanced to depict them in words of various languages. He stored these books so that he could refer to them and help others while seeing what others have done before him. Gradually these book collections accumulated until the vast buildings we now have were built as storehouses for human knowledge e tteasuties of all known things. Those who work in these treasuries have an obligation to be their guardians. No matter how small or how large the library, the librarian holds the keys to the works of philosophers, scientists, historians, all that the world has offered. At Weber. the Library Club is the guardian of the school library. It has often been heard that the librarians task is an easy one. This is true for those Who are really interested in their work. Yet, at times, the job can be a tedious one. Since about one-eighth of the student body uses the library every day, a certain amount of cleaning, dusting, and general main- Page 86 tenance must be done. And perhaps no assignment is more unwelcome to the librarians than that of shelving books. Moreover, these are n0t his prin- cipal tasks. XWhat is the big job? If he cannot know everything there is to know e- and he makes no pretense to compete with the quiz programs e he can at least know where and how to find it. This is the job, this is 192'; work - helping others find what they want to know. Through the maze of the Dewey number classification sysrem, the librar- ian must work his way each time a title is sought. Through Cutter numbers, shelf lists, magazine files, and reserved books, he digs until the puzzle 15 solved. Each year, the Library Club undertakes a large project. This year, it was divided into two parts. The shelf list was completed very recently bylthe Club. The back-files of the more popular magazmes have been arranged. Each month a new poster, calling attention to the advantages of reading, ,dcic' orates the west wall of the library. Another attiv1ty 0f the Library Club is the membership. 1n the Catholic Association of Student Librarians 9f Illinois. Indeed, our chapter was instrumental In its organization. Club, nkel, .

We sang at the Mothers, Club Annual Christ- mas Patty, weaving in the spell and spirit of the season with gay carols. We appeared at the Annual High School Music Festival, this year as hosts, re- ceiving third rating and a blue ribbon. We com- bined talents with those of Gordon and St. Pat to form the Boys Chorus of the Catholic Music Fes- tival held at the Chicago Civic Opera House. Sing- ing Schubertys Ave Maria along with secular and less serious melodies at Downey Hospital, in the Great Lakes Naval Station area, the Weber Glee Club enriched the drab lives of these men and, per- haps, even gave some of the discouraged vets a reason to continue their struggle for life. Our spring concert with the Band sported nostalgic titles like Home Sweet Home and Gershwitfs My Gal Sal, as well as the majestic Holy Lord and the spirited Geyser. The repertoire also in- cluded such popular seleCtions as On the Street Where You Live from My Fair Lady and Catch a Falling Star, popularized by Perry Como. 1 :1 i xiii , , V W WMWWM ' ,le Sports properly directed develop character, make a man courageous, a generous loser and gracious victor; they refine the senses, give us intel- lectual penetration, steel the will to endurance.

The football team succeeded in uniting the interests of everyone connected with Weber. Pat- enst may have had widely diverging interests, but everyone shared an intereSt in the accomplishments of the football team. Football also united the inter- esrs of patents and their sons. Enthusiasm for the Red Horde was held in common; attendance at the weekly grid contests was a source of enjoyment for the whole household. The season ended months ago and so it has been a long time since we saw the Red Horde tomahawk lowered upon an opponent in a glorious display of Weber power, a long time since we cheered out team on to a tremendous victory.

At the very beginning of this important place is the pre-season game against Leo, the defending champs 0f the Catholic League. After a fine first-half performance we led 7-0. We were all confident of victory untii Leo pushed across 14 points in a scoring binge Stos tied the score with his second TD. Then with only seconds remaining, a Leo player intercepted one of QuinnTs passes . . . we lost 20-14. We didn't feel too downhearted after that first defeat. We knew we had fine players. With a line headed by Tom Krysinski, Bill Wolanski, and Rich Scesniak, with fleet ends and a sturdy backfield prospects were bright; we fully expected to beat St. Mel in the season opener.

Beat the mighty Gordon Rams in out next game? No reason whatsoever to doubt it. The Rams managed to score against our valiant team only once . . . at the beginning of the game, With TD's by Stos and Helminiak, we won 19-6, and Gordon tumbled from the ranks of the unde- feated. We fans were now truly excited. Our team lived up to its expectations. The urban press now reckoned us as one of the powers of the city race. But so was De Paul, our next Victim. It was either in this game, or in the one that followed it, that we reached the high point of the season. From the standpoint of performance, the DePaul match was the game to see. Against the powerful Demons we played magnificently and won 29-6. The Whole Weber train moved expertly. We scored a safety; we executed long drives for TDls; we scored on short plunges, on a pass play, and on a 65 yard run. We added 3 extra points on kicks by Quinn. The final score was evidence of the play. But, as we look back, we must also recognize the importance of the Loyola contest. The Ramblers were nor a strong squad, but the game will be remembered for the recognition it brought Weber High football. By winning 57-0, we captured the North Section title. Wally Stos, who scored 3 TD's while gaining nearly 250 yards, copped the League scoring title for the season. His tOtal of 74 points during League play was far ahead of the competition. a4 City coring CAamPion We were paired OH with the Mendel Monarchs in the playoffs. The results of the game were sad and unexpeCted. Mendel slipped by 7-6 and then went on to win the City Championship with ease. In the hrSt half we outplayed the Monarchs. Early in the second half, after Bob XViater recovered a Mendel fumble, Helminiak plunged over for the score. Soon after this, Mendel retaliated with a TD and an extra point. Phil Helminiakys touchdown turned out to be the last Red Horde six pointer of the season. 171111,, . ya, 6 12 6 6 0 7 101ty.........13 in. ,t have Leo 20 St. Mel Holy Tr St. George Gordon Tech De Paul Loyola ..

Another successful season has passed into the annals of ftosh football. Coach William SChllltZ dlrected the strategy as the ftosh compiled a 3-2 record. The coach had a whole host of problems to overcome this year; the inexperience of the young- sters was not the greatest. He was confronted by a Squad which, at times was depleted 9507r by the now notorious Asiatic Flu. Still the lads snuggled. They showed a better defense than offense. TWO Opponents were denied a point, one was limited to .a smgle TD, and two managed to hit Paydirt tw1ce. On the other hand, the little men were un- able to store more than one TD in any game. The little Red Horde team got off to an in- auspicious start losing to the Fenwick Friars 13-6. The next game showed an improvement as the Weber frosh slipped past the Demons. Both the St. Pat green wave and the St. George dragon were beaten down. In the laSt game of the season, the Red Horde met its archrival, Gordon Tech.

For next year Coach Phil Stelnicki sees even better accomplishments in sight with a fine number of re- turning experienced swimmers slated for the tank. In an inter-squad tussle between the seniors and jun- iors at the end of the season, the seniors won out by the close score of 41-36. Itis close enough to augur well for the future of our team next year. yntroalmcing: Kyle CAamPions from tAe WortA! In the fall months, football was the center of interest for the whole sports-minded school. But, with the winter months, interest shifted to the hardwood court and basketball. We were so fickle, we hardly remembered ever idolizing the brawny football heroes. It seemed we had always idolized the tall, thin basketball stars. Indeed, this year we looked forward and upward: we had what was probably the tallest team in Weber history. The Senior basketeers, the object of most of this atten- tion, rewarded our interest by snaring a co-champ- ionship of the North Section of the Catholic League. The way the Seniors breezed through the prac- tice games raised our hopes very high. We won all seven games of the practice session and had little trouble doing it. Our most resounding Victory came over the neighboring St. Pat boys who were touted as a great team; we beat them by nearly 40 points. XWe were on cloud seventeen! The team that came closest to Challenge our might was Fen- wick - and the Friars took it on the chin 58-53. The practice season lasted nearly two months; the regular season schedule was planned for a similar amount, but the De Paul tourney lasted only one hour for the hardwood hustlers. Our tourney hopes were crushed when St. Leo downed us 42-40 in the opening round. League play started out very auspiciously with three solid victories that placed us on top of the heap. St. Mel Knights went down rather easily 55-59; Holy Trinity suffered a stunning defeat 59-33; then the St. George Dragons became the third victims by a margin of 20 points. Alas, we tumbled from the exalted ranks of the undefeated when the Gordon Tech Rams came up with a furious finish to outlast us and win 50-49. In the last minute, the score read 49-49. A free throw with only five seconds remaining snuHed out our hopes of Victory. In the next game, against De Paul Demons, the Red Horde got off to a very poor start and trailed through most of the game. We finally managed to catch up to the Demons in the last quarter and then slipped ahead to win 46-44. The Seniors thus completed first round play as undisputed leaders of the North Section.

Then Gordon proved our nemesis. After taking 21 16 point lead in the early minutes of thg game, the Rams managed to retain it and beat us by a big margin. Paced by scoring ace, Meier, De Paul handed us our third loss for the season 57.30. The Seniors then completed the seasqn by trouncing Loyola 87-66. Out 9.3 record made us North Section cha with the Gordon Rams. The Seniors then played at the De Paul University gym where they were eliminated in the quattethnals by a strong St. Ignatius quintet 60-44.

It was a just reward, a well-deserved honor to an aggressive tearn that played hard and shcnved a real de$re to win. The League record was an imposing 10-2. Though the Juniors finished the season with such a distinguished record, they did lose two of the first three practice games.

In the Fenwick Tourney, the Juniors beat St. Rita 48-40 and St. Mel 51-48 in overtime. We lost then to Fenwick and wound up in fourth place after 21 Close contest against Holy Trinity. The first round of League play was a dream come true. The aggressive quintet made as perfect a record as anyone could wish for. The hrst victims were the Knights Of St. Mel. Then we edged the Trinity Tigers 51-50.

Thus ended the Catholic League basketball season for a group of hard-working youngsters who never gave up but continued, to the last minute of play, to demonstrate the dauntless spirit that has characterized Red Horde sportsmanship through- out the years.

Pius XII iNoruember, 1939i uIn a truly Christian family, the husband knows that his soul is of the same nature and not stronger than that of his wife and his chil- dren; hence he unites his daily pray- ers with theirs and, just as he is pleased to have them dine with him at the family table, so does he not neglect to accompany them to the Eucharistic table. ' Pius XII duly, 1940i What comfort it would give us to be certain that you share this anxiety of ours for the Christian education of youth! Educate the consciences of your children with tenacious and persevering care. . . Impress upon the consciences of the young the gen- uine concept of liberty, . . . a proved disposition for good; it is that self- decision to will what is good and to accomplish it; it is the mastery of ones own faculties, of instincts, of events? Pius XII tMarcb, 1952l SCHOOL LIFE 494 7acet of Spirit What makes Weber High what it is? This is a deceptively simple question. XWeber High obviously is not the surrounding edifice; the walls merely contain Weber. School spirit is what we call the make-up of Weber. This spirit cannot exist of itself; still without it Weber cannot be What it is. The ideals which each stu- dent believes in and strives for e this is Weber. The hopes cherished in each studentls heart h this is WXeber. Participation in the joys experienced, the sacrifices made, the tasks accomplished by the students - this is XWeber. The sustained interest, enthusiasm, and pride each student experiences knowing he is part of the school e this is XWeber. School spirit cannot exist by itself. But it can be encouraged, helped along, even externalized to show some of its facets. This is particularly true when it expresses the interest and participation in th general life of the school which begins with training the soul, morally and intellectually, in its devotion to study.

II From Soldier Field to the Annual Commence- ment Exercises, we have seen our excellent Color Guard post colors, carry the flags of the United States, the Holy Father, and of Weber High. Lead- ing the Band, they amazed all with their precision marching, cadenced drills, and execution of the manual of arms. Their progress at the regional con- tests supervised by Legion Posts augurs well for future shows with the Band. The Red Horde, named after an Illinois Indian Confederation, ofe feted us Indian costumes and dances while hlling us with pride at their performances during the football season. And what would our sport season be like without the enthusiastic exuberance of the Cheerleaders? They have contributed their share to the giant push that helped carry our teams.

Wing gance $1 SOCA xj'leps Weberites and their dates attending the evenings of dance sponsored by the Senior Social Committee surely wished they could have danced all night. All were sorry to see the entertaining evenings come to a close. This was especially true of the Senior Ring Dance, the first formal of the year, held in October. Early the morning of the dance, the Rev. Principal blessed the rings and then per- sonally presented them to the Seniors at the eve- ning dance. As each Senior and his date walked through the giant ring set in the center of the dance Hoor, the whole senior class acted as the honor reviewing line around the symbol of the unbroken attachment to our Alma Mater. A mov- ing sight on a memorable night. Weber High is literally the grand-daddy of Chi- cago area Sock Hops. Faithful to the established tradition of fun-filled barefooted shuffles, the Weber social season included two Sock Hops in the calendar of events. The Senior Sock Hop was held early in the fall to warm up the season and polish up the maple wood; the distinctive Sputnik Hop swung into orbit on a festooned satellite which was strictly out of this world after the mid-semester exams. Fun? Lets put it this way; four thousand pairs of brogans uttered no com- plaint as they awaited their owners. Dolores Kilian 8!

This semi-formal event, for many the highlight of the year, was held on December 28 in the gym-auditorium. The site was transformed into a spectacular showpiece that rivaled Santas legendary North Woods. The Senior Social Committee turned the gym into a forest of almost 800 aromatic pines and hemlocks, bathed them in the warm and radiant glow of traditional yuletidc colors, and made dozens of soft blue lights, mounted in a giant silver chandelier, play on the whole ensemble. The setting for Noel Nocturne was perfect. The attendance was numerous, extend- ing beyond the Senior Class to include many alumni and friends. Members of the Mothers, and Fathers, Clubs aCted as chaperones and graciously aided at the ticket office and the punch bowl. The music of popular Jack Saunders and his orche5tta echoed the gay sentiments of the holiday season as it wafted through the foreSt of evergreens. x: xxxxxx QMW. After dutiful preparations that included nervous necktie tugging, horn tuning, drum swabbing, the scene was set: in the auditorium, bunting trailed the rails, palms spread their leafy fronds, the piano re- ceived its seventeenth dusting, the lights were dimmed, and the audience seemed to match the tenseness of the performers. This was Concert night! Standing in the rear of the auditorium awaiting the signal to proceed to the front, we heard Fr. Ciesla whisper: TEvery- things ready. Good luck! God bless you. In a few minutes we were in our places onstage: the uniformed Band flanked by the tuxedoed Glee Club. The Color Guard formed an honor line as the Band played our national anthem.

The big affair of the year which enrolls the aid of every member is the Annual Card Party; the success of the efforts of these devoted mothers sim- ply staggers the imagination. This year they made a substantial contribution to the building fund. Not only did the Mothers Club plan and finance the Athletic Banquet and the Graduates Luncheon, they also served as hostesses - and presented each senior with a memento of the event. MOthers Day was sanctified in a special man- ner with a Mother and Son Communion Morning, in the school gymnasium. Mom and son assisted at the solemn high Mass and the inspirational coronation of the Queen of MOthers, the Immaculate Virgin Mary. 1. A candid moment at the Mothersy Club Christmas Party.

The quiet northwest corner of Webefs campus receives frequent prayerful visits from faculty, students, parents, and friends. Here, amid the slender oaks, rises the inviting grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes and her faithful daughter, Bernadette. Out Blessed Lady celebrates the centennial of her apparition at Lourdes this year. With the hundredth anniversary of the miraculous appearance at Lourdes; Weber High joins the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the Mothers' and Fathersb organization, and counts itself fortunate to be able to kneel at the Lourdes grotto to re- peat the prayer composed by our reigning pontiff, Pope Pius XII. 'bObedient to the invitation given in thine own maternal words, 0 Virgin immaculate of Lourdes, we hurry to thy feet at the humble grotto, where thou didst vouchsafe to appear, in order to point out the way of prayer and penance to those gone astray, and to dispense the graces and wonders of thy supreme goodness to the sick. Grant that we, thy children, may be consoled in our sorrows, protected in danger, and sustained in our struggles! May we love and serve thy dear Son' Jesus in such a way that we may de- serve eternal joy before thy throne in heaven above. Amen. Senior 91 romenaole The setting for this year's prom was laid in the M St M Room of Chicago's Merchandise Mart, the evening of May 9. The exclusive party of graduating seniors, their guests, and chaperones began the eve- ning With a sumptuous dinner in the club room. This feature proved to be a very welcome innovation to the plans of the traditionally gala Weber proms. Strolling musicians serenaded the diners. Then the celebrated Griff Williams took up the baton to lead his fine orchestra through a varied musical repertoire that kept every couple dancing. The Royal Court in the grand march was led by King Tom Krysinski, president of the class of 1958, and Queen Della Marie Gibbons of Siena High. The court attendants were Tom Hayes and Karen Ryder of St. Patrick Academy; Joseph Cesario and Sheri Crokin of Good Counsel; LeRoy Zwier and Darlene Parytinski of Alvernia; Tony Calzaretta and Camille Parat 0f Resurrection; and Ray Koziol and Mary Ann Sowka of Notre Dame High. These distinguished Weber seniors and the young ladies they escorted were showered with many gifts, treasured mementoes of the great occasion. The chaperones this year were Mr. and Mrs. A. Bak, Mr. and Mrs. T. Schulfer, Mr. and Mrs. T. Mar- tinsen, Dr. and Mrs. S. Koziol, Dr. and Mrs. R. Schul- fer, Dr. and Mrs. J. Strzyz.

It his 013- 'e done id little reached As the days drew nearer and nearer, it was hard for us to realize that soon we would be completing high school, that we were beginning on our own, as it were, to make our fortunes in the world. We asked ourselves what we had accomplished and many times we reviewed the paSt months and years that we spent together with our friends. There were our parents, always helpfully, solicitously guiding us. There was Joe, trying to make us laugh when we were down and out. Here is Jim, old reliable. And Tom, quiet, but really a true friend. They all seem to crowd around us now as if h your in anticipation of a fateful patting which will never see us together again. But we know that we have added a little bit Ugh all to our lives through them e humor, steadfastness, good sportsmanship, strength of character. te isnt iks for May 30, 1958, arrives; everything happens so fast that we seem to move in a daze. Solemn High Mass at St. Stanislaus B. M. Church with the Very Rev. John Gtabow- ski, C.R., provincial of the Congregation of the Resurrection, celebrant, Rev. Bernard Bak, C.R., himself a W'ebet grad and only recently our 1958 retreat master, inspires us with new courage and determination through his excellent sermon. We spend the day with out folks until the evening when one hun- dred and sixty of us enter the auditorium and open the sixty-second Annual Com- mencement Exercises. The Junior class tep- resentative, Craig Waryjas, presents the fare- well salute. Once again we see ourselves as undetclassmen, hoping and waiting for this very night. Anthony Calzaretta is our valedic- torian. Then the special guest, His Excellency, Bishop Raymond P. Hillinger, Auxiliary of Chicago, delivers his address to us and . . . the long-awaited moment arrives! We kneel to kiss the Bishops ring, accept the diploma he places in our hands, and then, trembling with excitement, we utter a deep and sincere Thank You. Graduation Day With honor seniors James Kulik and Carl Gorski as their parents, family, and friends participated in the preparations, joys, and satisfactions that this great day brings. NO ONE IS WORTHY OF SUCH A PRIVILEGE! TRUE! BUT . . . with confidence in God, Whose grace can so easily transform weakness into strength, and object cowardice into absolute courage, offer yourself to God, your heart and your life, for the salvation of souls for, GHhOUQh GOd wills that 0' Of US be saved, He wills that our salvation be gained through the generous cooperation and help of other souls. HE INSISTS THAT WE ASSIST! To you, in the springtime of your life, He issues His inviting plea: COME, FOLLOW ME! - and He waits, expectantly, hopefully, to hear what your reply will be. And with Him wait the countless souls whose eternal happiness may hinge upon your answer.
