Pul)lislied l)y tlie G raduating Class at tlie Acadeniv of Mount Saint Ursula


Peace, You are knowledge, Bui how shall I tell them? They have leashed the fangs of war-hirds To the hideous torture of battle. And are calling it science. Peace, Yon are attainahle. Blit when will men learn it? They have wet their hands. With the oil of amhition. And find yon elusive. Peace, Yon are triumphant, But when will you conquer ? They have drowned the hopes of man: In despair and in failure They have shattered his courage.

FRANCIS J. SPELLMAN, S.T.D., LL.D. A rchbishop of New York


'omethiiig rare and fine was in llie alniosphere at Mount St. Ursula, and none of us who were students there remained unaffected hy it. For lack of a better word, I shall call it ‘distinctive.’ The visible effect was a manner of siinplieity and gentle dignity. . . . What most distinguished the girls of the Academy was that lovely manner that was taught there. We were taught it so well that it was not a superficial veneer. It was absorbed really; not learned. It came from within outward. My mother spoke rarely of this, more often dwelling upon the affection of the Nuns, and the beauty of the Academy, — what remains, what comes to me, is what I hold the true meaning of ‘lady'.” We, Class 1941, shall take these sacred words of a mother of one of us to heart as we go, with the aid of God’s grace and the blessing of Alma Mater, forth to a Brave, New World.

PATRONAL FEAST DAYS CELEBRATED St. U rsula’s Day was celebrated with customary fervor and splendor. Forty Hours Devotion was opened on October 19, and was concluded with a Missa Can­ tata in Itonor of the Holy Patroness on Iter feast. How appealing is St. Ursula of Britain to the learned ladies of the centuries— St. Ursula, the patron saint of school girls and of those who strive to teach them A quaint Itiographer describes her thus: “ She was not only wonderfully beautiful and gifted with all the external graces of her sex l)ut accomplished in all the learning of her time. Her mind was a perfect storehouse of wisdom and knoweldge; she

had read about the stars and tlie courses of tlie winds; all that liad ever happened in tlie world from tlie days ol Adam, she had Iiy heart; the poets and pliilosophers were to her what childish reactions are to others; hut above all she was proloundly versetl in theology and school divinity, so that doctors were eonfounded by her argumentive powers . . .” October 22 is the feast of St. Cordula, one of St. U rsula’s companion virginmartyrs. On October 2.1, the feast of the eleven Ursuline martyrs of Valenciennes was commemorated. “ Mid seolfs and jeers they labored, .All pagan threats defied. For faith and trust for Christian sehools Our martyrs hied and died.” The story of these martyrs beatified by our Holy Father, Pope Benediet X V , on June 13, 1920 was told in the Watch Tower, Vol. V, No. 1. The five Sundays in honor of St. Angela ojiened with solemn prayer on December 29. The order of prayer follows: 1. To honor her love of God and of Souls. 2. To honor her Angelic purity. 3. To honor her gifts of uniting hearts. 4. To honor her confidence in God. .3. To honor her mission: the foundation of the Ursulines.

CHRISTMAS-TIDE AWAITED A feelino; of awe at the meaning of Christmas, a thought of our missions, a preparing of our hearts for the Divine Babe of Bethlehem, the building of cribs in each home-room, gifts for the poor, re­ hearsals for our play, an eagerness to help others, anticipation of our party and joy everywhere marked the days before Christ­ mas ir. all our classes.


CRUSADERS’ CONFERENCES EarnCv'^tly awaited every montli are the talks jiiven hy Reverend Paul Mahoney, C.S.P., at Crusaders' Mass. Father has in­ stilled into our hearts a greater knowledge and love of Jesus and Mary. We pray that these hallowed eonferenees remain with us always, guiding us ever closer to God.

SACRED HEART IS ENTHRONED The most ardent hope of Ursuline hearts was realized on February 19, immediately following our monthly Crusader Mass. The ceremony for the enthronement of the Sacred Heart was performed with reverent lips and humble minds. Holy thoughts center upon our labors which now are homages of love to our King of Kings. The annual retreat was held under the direction of Reverend Neil Boyton S.J. The renowmed author inspired his hearers with a love of innocence and truth. His “ Journey to Heaven” will be a long re­ membered tale.

ON BEING PRESIDENT OF THE STUDENT COUNCIL A pom pous person could write magnifi­ cently on this subject; she could elaborate on her manifold duties and responsibili­ ties; she could dwell on her qualifications, and on all the things accomplished during her term of office. It is in no such spirit that I write for I do not think I was any more able to fill the position than count­ less other seniors who were nominated. The onlv justification I have for WTiting th is is the fact that 1 was elected first pres­ ident, and it usually resolves uj>on the “ first” of anything to explain the aims of the organization. Although in the consti­ tution tlie prime purj)ose stated is, to foster extra-currcular activities, many more duties have descended upon us since last October. We are genuinely happy because during the past few weeks the students have begun to realize the primary aim of this organziation — to develop our own sense of leadership. Previously, we had relied on the authority of those older than ourselves. It was a perfect system, hut it did not j)rovidc for rcs])onsihilitics that prepare us for life. Now, each error proves that our plans necfl alterations. Further,

we are now equipped just a little better to meet tlie responsibilities of life. W'e want you to know that we have a workable system and are willing to sub­ mit to trial and error. We Can not truth­ fully say that because we originated it, it is a perfect plan ; we only intend that it will I)e the foundation stone for bigger and better things. A. W. Student Council Government was in­ augurated during the first semester. Anna Wedlock was elected president; Winifred Pagano, Vice-President; Joan Quinn, Sec­ retary'. Membership is made up of all regularly elected class officers.

GENESIANS ARE NOW TROOP No. 297 The Genesians, now in their fifth vear, eagerly welcome all future Katherine Cor­ nells. Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors await the opportunity to display their conception of dramatic art. The Genesians think that Wednesday is an ideal day for every member! On December 16, they played The K in g ’s Jongleur. Patricia Breslin, the young star­ let of the Sophomore division, together with Ann Patricia Kane, the Senior's proud boast, helped to make tliis threeact drama impressive. Tlie program fol­ lows :

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION MAKES NEWS Dots . . . Dashes . . . Plenty of Flashes! This year’s activities progressed along a fast moving social line. When the snow covered our grounds. Miss Dorothy B a r ­ rett, our athletic moderator, had a snow


man contest. Girls were enpaftecl in l)uilding everywliere. Col)ina, the Soplis’ snow woman, hedeekecl in the latest creation, won first prize. ho’s th a t? ’" was the cry heard around tlie hall, " ^ h y , it's a mascjuerade party." ^ cs, all tlie jiirls covered their beautiful faces to obtain first prize as the most hid­ eous. An old woman rigged in long white wliiskers, our Marie Keegan, was the lucky one. For diversion, we attended a Housecoat Party. A maze of color illumined tlie newly decorated hall. The “ deliutante,” lielle of the hall, was Ann Thorton . . . my, m y ! ! ! All should know how to dance now. as M iss Mahoney insists on a Friday after­ noon dancing club. Here is one place where you don't have to lie ashamed of stepping on another's toes! Yea, t e a m !!! Here they come now! In­ terclass games caused lieated and exciting moments before they started. The Senior team, coached by Peggy Waters, fought valiantly witli the Juniors. The score was tied at the end of the game, hut, an extra quarter gave the Juniors the winning point, 10:9. “ C h ippie” Mazzolla's hard work and prayers were answered. Joan Quinn’s Sophs defeated Clare D urr’s Freshmen line-up in a fighting “ last to the minute” game. Then the two winners. Juniors and Sophs, went into comhat. On that neverto-he-forgotten day, the Sophs ruined the Ju n io rs’ expectations with the startling score of 11-10. The Varsity challenged hoth tlie Juniors and Sophs and won by deny­ ing to hoth teams even one basket! In the five games allotted to the Varsity this vear, two were won. The scores of th e winning games were St. Barnabas 6— M.SU. 7; Aquinas H all 7—M.S.U. 34. A sore spot on our schedule was the Holy Child victory of 34-33. This was a varsity without a captain, for, in every game a new member of the team occupied the position. The guards, Clare Durr, Peggy Garvey, and Peggy Waters were outstand­ ing in their defense of M.S.U. “ C h ippie” Mazzolla, Joan Quinn, Mary Thellusson, rolled up basket after ahsket—wdiat for­ wards. We can’t forget the spirit K ay Daly put into each game. She really gave her all! The haskcthall season gave way to our summer trails of softball, hadminton, ten­

nis, archery, horseback-riding, and swim­ ming. It may have hccn hot in perform­ ing these summer styles, hut it was fun. After the tumult dies down the memory lingers on. HOME-MAKING C L U B E S T A B L I S H E D A new club was formed on the Cainjms with the advent of the Septemher term: "T h e Home Making Club” sponsored by Miss E. Kellenherg. At the first official meeting, the officers of the club were elected: President: Virginia Murtha Vice President: Margaret Farrell The object of this club is to teach the girls how to cook, sew, and perform all the duties pertaining to the management of a household. The inemhers are exceed­ ingly active. They were hostesses at the recejition of the Dramatic Club students into the National Thespian Honor Society. Through the efforts of this Club there has been effected a veracious interest in the home and in its functioning. U R S U L IN E T R I-SC I C L U B Th is October brought to the Mount St. Ursula Campus the Ursuline Tri-Sci Club formed to promote a further interest in science and to supplement our class work. The officers elected are: President: Patricia Byrne Vice President: Catherine O’Neill Secretary: Beverly Protzman Treasurer: Patricia Halley Interest in the meetings, held on the second Friday of each month, is height­ ened by individual jiarticijiation. Chem­ istry students have demonstrated their sci­ entific abilities in the successful p re p ara­ tion of chlorine and oxygen. Instructive talks on the history of rayon, and the con­ tending theories of evolution evoked stim­ ulating discussion on the subjects. The staff attended the New York Uni­ versity Conference on School Publications on Friday afternoon, November 8, 1940 at W ashington S(juare East, New’ T o rk Citv. A convocation w’as held with Dean John T. Madden, presiding. Greetings were of­ fered by Chancellor Harry W oodhurn Chase. There were repeat sessions of all Forums. A Tea Dance was held in the

17, 1941

In oommcinoration of tlie Federal Bill of Rights, our program was jtlanned with einpliasis on the Catliolie origins of demoeraey. A symposium, witli student orators —freshman to senior—gave expositions as follow s: 1. Our N atural Heritage 2. Our American Pliilosojthy is Christian 3. M aterialism: Our Menace Dr. Godfrey P. Schmidt, lawyer, writer, and present Deputy Commissioner of Labor for New York State was our guest speaker. His was a masterly discourse to future legislators on the How' and A hy of Law's. Music and dram a—a one-act play w'ith its elegant climax in the words of a French m aiden: “ I am now an American citizen” made our message delicately and sw'eetly persuasive. A press account with pliotographs has made us “ News.” In preparation for this event we worked with grand elan — studying original sources; discussing so-called eminent ph il­ osophies with their influences, (who had not known all Locke and Rousseau have be q u e ath ed -h u t W'e set out to see for our­ selves! I ; oratory contest preparatory to participation; guests invited (we have three speakers promised for our coming Pan-American D a y ! ) ; shunning skiing p a r­ ties to go to the library (we knew we had t o ! l . It was all fun and it gave us that thrill of doing and being something funda­ mentally fine. Bill of Rights Week was our opportunity to foster an intellectual comf)rehension of these rights with intellisent allegiance to that of which thev are the expression: the Defense of tlie Worth of the Human Individual.

Our activity has been asscmhled for six parochial schools and three parish sodali­

ties, as well as for the patrons and students of our school. The events were planned in mid-Octoher and finally shaped themselves severally in view of three basic objectives: First, 1 he Catholic School Periodical of Today Trains the Writers of Tom or­ row. Second. What the Typical Catholic Family Reads. I bird. The Holy Father, our Rcv'crcnd Bishops, as Living Principals in the Drama of Life. Re, The First, Cathol ic School Press: Student Publication for Students Chairm an. Josephine Saggesse Poster projects displayed papers and magazines from thirty-one states, and Alaska, Australia, Hawaii and Holland. They had been examined as to format and content. Student expositors, my associates, discussed in turn, our findings before our assembly and during visiting hours, to all who came. Some publishers might take a cue from St. Louis University NAws, M ar­ quette and Mundelein! Re, The Second, Reading for Catholic Family Life Chairm an. Helen Mitchell What perfect "salesm en” our girls made as they elaborated (honest-to-goodness sales-talkl the merits of sixty-seven Cath­ olic magazines and newspapers! Inci­ dentally, many of our specimens were re­ garded souvenirs—if we may posit a kind ju d g m e n t! Re, The Third, The Living Principals Chairm an, Clare Durr A perfect pupj>et theatre all studentdesigned and executed housed the presen­ tation of eight great Pontiffs’ radio-television-mock recital of their vigorous dec­ laration of right procedure in Church and State, Capital and Labor, Marriage, E d u ­ cation, and Reparation. Our theatre is well-nigh pulverized from frequent transjtortation. It was the most jtopular of all. Yes, we intended it should he! Mimeographed synopses of all projects were dis­ tributed to each audience “ to lake home” (we meant to "take to heart” ).

Eleven of our girls, costumed in sweet old-fasliioned attire, enacted a oiieaet play “ The General Goes Home.” The actresses reviewed with girlish feeling and sympathy, tlie famed farewell of Washing­ ton to his soldiers.
