Laying claim to the campus for the week May 8 to 14, the "third-year men staged a series of festivities that was matched onl y by the magnitude and variety of the class itself. High spot of the week and surprise "of the year was the Junior Minstrel show which spontaneously combusted in the staid Prep auditorium on Wednesday evening. Smoothly . engineered by the theatrical wizardry of Jack Hyland, the performance sparkled with clever dialogue and flawless continuity. Joe D'Auria and his polished ensemble, besides providing a melodious background for the show contributed artis- tic distinction to tlie evening with beau- tifull y rendered solos. As the week was planned by the Class officers, each Philosophy section was en- trusted for a day's activities.

That evening, the Class of '50 travelled to the Broadwood Hotel lor a sumptuous repast followed by after-dinner speeches which were brief , witty, wise and well-received. Class presi- dent Charlie Shreiner acted as Master of Ceremonies, and hetween roars, introduced the various speakers to the more than 350 Juniors present. Fathers Buckley and McNamara spoke briefly, congratulating the Juniors for the excellent spirit demon- strated thus far. The -Very Rev. John J.

Wednesday evening the aforementioned Minstrel show brought the sunshine back to tbe Juniors, and their friends. The all-star cast , besides the usual veteran per- formers on the Cap and hells and, the Glee Club included a number of un- heralded stars who exhibited heretofore bidden talents to the utter amazement of their classmates and the general panic of the audience.
