Wildwood Catholic High School - Annscript Yearbook (North Wildwood, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 84 of the 1960 volume:

From fourteen towns in Cape May County, traveling by school bus, by car, and on foot, come students to Wildwood Catholic High School. Here they find a happy blending of the supernatural and the natural, of religion and knowledge. Here they learn the true values of the present life and the infinite joys of the life celestial. Here at Wildwood Catholic these students discover all the ingredients necessary for developing a Christ-like personality. Truly, Wildwood Catholic Mas everything Zke I960 Mnscript WILDWOOD CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL WILDWOOD, NEW JERSEY THE MOST REVEREND justin j. McCarthy S.T.D., LL.D. The students of Wildwood Catholic were saddened by the sudden death of our distinguished leader. In the short time given to Bishop McCarthy as head of our diocese, he proved himself a shepherd of souls whose outstanding spiritual and intellectual endowments proclaimed him an ardent champion of the Faith. To all his flock in the Diocese of Camden, Bishop McCarthy was an eloquent teacher. By his willing acceptance of the Cross of sickness which Our Lord asked him to bear, Bishop McCarthy taught us the lesson of resignation to the holy Will of God. We humby dedicate the 1960 ANNSCRIPT to our inspiring teacher, Bishop Justin J. McCarthy. _ . MAY HE REST IN PEACE In Dedication . 4 THE MOST REVEREND CELESTINE J. DAMIANO Archbishop—Bishop of Camden ;Distinguished Prelate We wish to extend our welcome to His Excellency, Archbishop Celestine Damiano. We axe indeed singularly honored by Our Holy Father, Pope John XXIII’s appointment of such a distinguished prelate to be our new shepherd in Christ. We wish Archbishop Damiano God’s blessing in his new role and pray that Our Heavenly Father will grant him many years of fruitful service here in the Diocese of Camden. 5 Able Administrators THE RIGHT REVEREND MONSIGNOR CHARLES P. McGARRY Superintendent of Schools REVEREND JOHN J. CLARK Assistant Superintendent of Schools The Rt. Rev. Monsignor Charles P. McGarry has recently been singu- larly honored by Our Holy Father, Pope John XXIII. We wish to extend the hearty felicitations of the staff and students of Wildwood Catholic to Monsignor McGarry, asking God to bless him and grant him much happiness and success. We have been fortunate in having ex- perienced and understanding priests as our Administrators of Schools. From the beginning of Monsignor McGarry’s assuming the office of Superintendent of Schools, we realized that in him we had a kind and interested friend. Father Clark lends Monsignor McGarry able assistance in bearing the heavy burdens attendant on supervising the many schools of our diocese. He, too, has ever manifested a deep interest in the progress of Wild- wood Catholic. Reader THE RIGHT REVEREND MONSIGNOR M. AUGUSTINE CRINE Pastor of St. Ann's The cornerstone of the new wing is set in place by the Rt. Rev. M. Augustine Crine assisted by Rev. Fcrnan Brennan, O.S.F.S. To The Rt. Rev. Monsignor M. Augustine Crine’s unswerving solicitude and provident foresight we are deeply indebted. He foresaw the need of greater space and better facilities at Wildwood Catholic. Or, to put it in Monsignor’s own words, he wanted to give us more of everything.” His foresightedness has been rewarded by the completion and dedication of the new wing of our school. We take this opportunity to ex- press our gratitude to Monsignor Crine, and to assure him that we are aware of all that he is doing to prepare us to take our places in the world of tomorrow as educated Christian men and women.

Mr. McAlarnen takes time out from his busy schedule as Director of Athletics to chat with two seniors. Me. McAlarnen's advice is often sought by the students. in mind, in soul, in body. The Junior girls prove their dramatic ability under the able guidance of Sister Anne Helene. The Christmas play, their production, was excellent. Frequent confession is provided for the students. Father Ryan is giving some Freshmen an opportunity to prepare themselves for the First Friday of the month. ACTIVITIES Not all of life is learned from books. At Wildwood Catholic the whole personality is formed, not simply the intellectual. In the extra-curricular activities here, proper habits and skills of living are best acquired. The great variety of these activities meets the needs of all students. Those who participate in these activi- ties acquire a sense of cooperation, which pre- pares the way for living as useful citizens of our nation. Eager readers at Wildwood Catholic keep li- brary aides on their toes. Thanks to Sister Frances Bernadette and her helpers: Marilyn Sheppard, Kathy Brennen, Mary Anne Bowman and Angela Dogliotti, the library is a pleasant place to browse around ins Our pleasant cafeteria aides line up for a picture. With their smiling service there is no indigestion around Wild- wood Catholic. The bright smiles these aides are wearing typify the school spirit in their hearts. They help to make our school a pleasant place in which to spend four years. Qladly giving 16 Student Council Senior Council members pose with the Rt. Rev. Msgr. M.

Service Underclass Student Council members bind themselves to live up to their offices each day, by executing their duties faithfully. 17 The class of 1963 is officially introduced to Wildwood Catholic. The keynote of the day was the clever inter pretation of the significance of our seal Fides et Scientia” by ingenious chapeaux and banners. Note the subdued manner in which these freshmen enjoy themselves. They were still feeling a little new. By the end of the Fresh- men Day show, 1963 knew it belonged to Wildwood Catholic's family. (How did Elsie Onorato get in on the act?) Welcome ’63 A famous” Combo makes its debut. As Pat Nestor (Freshman) entertains vocally, he is accompanied by Richaid Van Beuren and Ken Bertram. In the back- ground, Alan Gordon bangs out that crazy rhythm.” Georgeanne Bachman, Dolores Morclli, Margaret Piro, and Paula Collemacine do a modern version of the Charleston of the roaring twenties.” 18 The entire cast listen attentively to Mrs. Zahara who directed the play. Elaine (Joanne Hyson) is furious. She shouts, “You can’t propose to me one minute and throw me out the next!” Mortimer (Jack Haas) finds it hard to explain. Abby (Mary Decina) and Martha (Mary Frances Girard) discuss their previous acts of mercy.” I still say wc can’t count him. He just died on his own, with no help from us,” Abby sighs. Mr. Witherspoon (Jot Bouman) looks over the situation and Charge! decides that this is a group for Happy Dale if there ever was one.

Charles Harvey, president, asks for bright ideas; and Vincent DiMauro, Roseanne Bimbo, Marie Lanza, vice- president, and James Lang seem to have a few. Members of our Forensic League become skilled in the art of public speaking by presenting in- formal declamations to the student body. Under the able direction of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Feraco, many of these students have fared very well in interscholastic debates.

During Catholic Press Month all of our students, especially William Fath, Josephine Cartolano, Michael Herron, Deborah Engwall, and James Saba- tino strive to make everyone realize the importance of Catholic literature. There should be many new subscriptions after this project. Mayor James of Wildwood seems as happy as Elizabeth Snyder at her winning the essay con- test on The Importance of Recreation.” Where shall we put it?” That is the burning question as each picture is carefully scrutinized. Erlene Ward, Claudia Town, and Andrew Melchiorrc pore over the pages of the dummy while Nancy Worrall, Margaret Mul- zet, Carol Burg, Ruth Hartman, Lo- retta Mollo, Joanne Magolda, Marie Lanza, Kenneth Bertram, and Joseph Sikora study the pictures. With Joseph Sikora dictating, the Annscript typists take action to finish as soon as possible their rewarding tasks of preparing the 1960 Annscript. Typists are Carol Peters, Mary Ellen Meighan, and Margot Axelsson.

Mr. Gugliclmo Sabatini Wildwood Catholic’s Glee Club, under the skillful direction of Mr. Guglielmo Sabatini, once again scored a triumph of superb perfor- mance in its twelfth annual Musicale. The pro- gram offered music for all, ranging from the classics to popular music. The finale, commem- orating the hundredth anniversary of Lincoln’s inauguration, was highlighted by the Glee Club’s stirring rendition of The Battle Hymn of the Republic. Sister Anne Helene teaches vocal music to our Glee Club, ably assisted by Sister Mary Helen.

Newly elected officers of the Wildwood Catholic Alumni include Jack Erkert, Mrs. James Leahy, Rosemarie Mulzet, and William Donohue. May he rest in peace! Peter Gallaccio is now a legend at Wildwood Catholic. Wildwood Catholic has produced many outstanding men in its short history. Among these have been brilliant scholars, excellent athletes, and other superior gentlemen. Perhaps one of the finest — a humble composite of all of these — was Peter Galaccio. His untimely death saddened many hearts. Here at Wildwood Catholic we hope his spirit lingers in the halls and in the classrooms, a spirit which is, to those who know his story, an ever-present inspiration to higher standards of duty, and to living in Christ. The Peter Gallaccio Award' for moral integrity, effective leadership, and personal worth, will be given every year at Graduation, as a testimonial to this outstanding alumni member. The Rt. Rev. Monsignor M. Augustine Crine intro- duces Reverend Louis O’Meara who delighted the audience at the Alumni breakfast with his sparkling Irish wit. Mamni STUDIES Classrooms—after the chapel—are the heart of any school. In our bright and beautiful classrooms at Wildwood Catholic we are pre- pared for Christian living. Religion is of pri- mary interest in our studies. We delve also into the intricacies of mathematics, language, science, social studies, business, and the arts. Our most pleasant memories of Wildwood Cath- olic will be of happy moments spent in the classrooms, as our dedicated teachers helped to mold us to maturity. Daily morning visits to the Chapel are as much a part of our schedule as classes. Here we bid a Good Morning to Our Lord and obtain from Him the graces we will need to face the duties of the day. Moments of Prayer Religion is of primary importance on our schedule. Father Kuhl’s clear explanations make the difficult subject, Apologetics, become easy and pleasant to learn. 44 motivate our work. Various machines claim the attention of South Jersey’s future secretaries. Secretarial students aim for a high rate of accuracy and speed in their typing. Mechanical drawing enthusiasts handle their tools like professionals. Joe Salfi is being assisted by Mrs. Keene while Francis McBrearty sees how it is done. Perhaps one of these students will be the engineer of the next Dela- ware River Bridge. Journalism as a profession is Kenneth Bertram’s topic and Eng- lish IV students listen attentive- ly. We are sure Sister Rita Mar- tin would be happy to see her students’ names on the masthead of a daily newspaper some day.

Eagerly have we checked off each milestone: pictures, senior play, rings, caps and gowns measured, prom . . . Suddenly it seems to us that our friends are becoming dearer. Familiar things around Wild- wood Catholic, that we have taken so much for granted, now assume their proper proportions. We are really beginning to appreciate them. In spite of ourselves, we experience a twinge of sadness and regret. But life lies ahead, and we are eager to face it. We are sure, however, that our thoughts and prayers will frequently return to Wildwood Catholic. SAMUEL THOMAS ASCOLESE 3001 Dune Dr. Avalon, N. J.
