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

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.
