Hi DEDICATION "The fundamental purpose of education at St. Ignatius is the training of Christian gentlemen as leaders. No other factor is to take precedence over this goal." —J. Leo Duggan To this man who has continually dedi cated his genius and understanding to living out his own words, we fondly dedicate this book. —the year when the Ignatian uncovered a new talent: the capacity to absorb and accept defeat. Success was accomplished—but arduously. Every man earned it on his own. Gloom shaded our bright prospects early in the year after the Parma game. as events took an upswing. After the Holy Name game the spirit tempo In creased sharply as Ignatians discovered a strong sense of school pride and interest—one independ ent of astounding victory and achievement.

RELIGION Religion plays an important and large part at St. Igna tius. It trains students to lead a responsible Christian life and supplies an atmosphere conducive to spiritual development. Freshmen centered their studies on God's Divine Provi dence, in the history of Man's Salvation, mani fested in the Old Testament. Sophomores focused their attention on Man's response to God's plan—worship. Consulting Scripture for light and motivation, they strove to obtain a clearer knowledge of Christ in the sacraments. Junior and senior religion courses prepared Ignatians for challenges of later life. Juniors saw how they, as members of the Mystical Body, could lead a Christ-like life through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Seniors grew more aware of their responsi bilities as Christians—to witness Christ in their daily lives. FR. ROBERT C. BROOME, SJ. Religion 3; Counselling. Fr.

Physical education, known to most students as "gym", in duced a student to become physically fit through the aid of various tests and competition. Gym classes, di rected by Messrs. John Wirtz, Edward Michener, and Martin Chambers, were taken by all Ignatians two or three times a week in both gymnasiums. Mr. Jack Hearns, Band and Glee Club moderator, taught mu sic to the Band and singing to the Glee Club. Some of the Band members who needed individual lessons took them twice each week. Glee Club members, in groups of twenty each, practiced two or three times a week. All Band and Glee Club members received scholastic credit for their work. In the typing course, most underclassmen received lessons in quick and accurate typewriting. The teacher, Mr. Mi chael Loparo, gave them a skill considered a pre-req- uisite for college aspirants. FR. BERNARD J. STREICHER, SJ. Every Ignatian took a speech course, part of a four-year pro English 2, 3; Band; Glee Club. gram, designed to prepare them for effective public speaking. This year, new textbooks were provided for " ~' the first three years, featuring step-by-step exercises and practice in giving speeches. In English, students cultivated language skills and developed an appreciation for past and contemporary literature. Freshmen and sophomores studied grammar and mas tered sentence and paragraph construction. Juniors and seniors did further work on essays and expository themes. Eight to twelve paperback novels made up part of the reading for all four years. A new literature series, designed to help the student understand, appreciate, and criticize his reading, emphasized structure and theme in first-year.
