Prom Revels To Cap Memorable Social Series For Senior Class By Myron Greenleaf Seniors will draw the curtain on the social events of their high school career with the long-awaited senior prom which will take place on the Tuesday night of June 1 on the cool, enchanting ,Jung Roof overlooking the city. The event will take place between the hours of eight and twelve with an expert band performing under the baton of the popular Russ Papalia. An attendance of over one hundred i couples and a small number of stags are expected for the gala affair. The Tulane Room of the Jung Hotel has been the site in the past, but it has been discovered that the Roof will easily accommodate the smaller class of thif' year. '~he seniors have been eagerly await;l"lg t}li- night for tP" pa;• four years and will no doubt place it among the happy memories of their high school days when they enter the business world or pursue higher education.
By Harold Albury As the final curtain is rung down on the graduates of '48, the Aloysian Staff finds itself minus the services of the senior journalists who strove so hard for the perfection of their school publication. The Aloysian will be missing all its editors. The following are graduating seniors: Editor in Chief Myron Greenleaf, who devoted much of his time and efforts to the improvement of the paper; "pencilpusher" deluxe, and Assistant Editor Charles Arnheim; Sports Editor Charles Neyrey, whose accurate descriptions brought games in print to those who hadn't the pleasure of seeing them; Business Editor Harold O'Donnell who brought much advertisement (Cont. on page eight)

St. Aloysius J9-ys In Ordin~,tion Of Two Of Its Sons May 22 was a rare and proud day for St. Aloysius. On that Saturday this Catholic school, which is so proud of its record in furnishing priests and religious to Holy Church, beheld two of its former students receive the sacred unction that made them priests of God forever. The newly ordained are the Reverend Fathers John Tomasovich and Michael Landry. In the historic St. Louis Cathedral the Most Reverend Archbishop imposed hands upon and anointed these two aspirants, lifting them up to a sublime participation in the priesthood of Christ. Thus was crowned long years of preparation for this great ministry. Both of these privileged young men entered Aloysius in 1937: Two years later ,Johnny Tomasovich left these halls of Christian learning to enter the minor seminary at St. Benedict. Mike Landry remained to be graduated Continued on page 8

He adds his congratulations. More important he informs us that on a recent visit to Rome he obtained for us and our publication the Apostolic Blessing of His Holiness. Pope Pius XII. For these kindnesses we are very grateful to the Reverend Brother. We wish him speedy and complete recovery from his recent hospitalization.

YEAR'S HONOR STUDENTS
By Alven Kampen Here it is the year 1958! ,June 4, 1958 to be exact. Just ten years today since my graduation from St. Aloysius. Now that I'm awake thanks to that alarm clock that the Keiffer, King, Lawnie Company puts out, I can get dressed. Now let's see where are my Theo Mayer shoes that I bought at the Ashton Young shoe store? Oh! here they are. And now I'll just slip into my Charles Rayers robe. I hope that Donald Tudury, our paper-boy threw our paper this morning. He usually forgets. Yes, here it is on the porch. I think that I will sit in my favorite chair stuffed with some of that moss that Ernest Laurent sent to me straight from Reserve. News from the headlines! WHAT'S THIS? Admirals Dan Jeansonne Armand Peyroux. Rene Laterrade, and Leon Chauvin are discussing the settlement of Lower Slabovia? OH BOY! what next. It says here that Ronald Weisdorffer is running for governor, and Maurice Bonnecarrere is running for Lt. Governor. Well, what do you know? Let's see what the stock section has to say. Hmmm, it looks as if Val Dauterive has just stumbled on another gushing oil well. This makes his fifty-sixth now. "Don Schiele steps century in 9.3 seconds to crack world record." Joe "OXYGEN TANK" Benson runs a fourminute-mile." "Sam 'NO-HIT' Barbars blanks Yanks 3-0. Wins 19th game without defeat." '"SPRINGS IN THE FEET' Pete Noto breaks world record by vaulting 18'3". Sports editor J. Barbara surely knows how to write a sports page. What's this on the last page way down in the corner? It says that Frank Maggio is still trying to gain control of the Communist party. Let's turn to the

I found out later that it was the Franco, Fulco, and Guidry Bubble Gum factory that was on fire. Well, here are the circus grounds. Now let's see whom we can find.

JERRY NUNEZ At last it has been found! Sitting here in our midst is a student who actually proclaims "mathematics" as his favorite subject. Who? Jerry Nunez! An academic student of Room 1, Jerry, 15, is fond of dancing especially jitterbugging. Jerry has taken part in in tram urals and although he enjoys all types of sports, baseball stands out as his favorite. He was also an active member of the confraternity for his four year stay at Saint Aloysius. When questioned on his plans after graduation ,Jerry excitedly replied, "I have hopes of entering Tulane for a course in geology as I have always been interested in i.he subject."

Thoughts For Summer ...
Above all that racket I can hear barker Fred Brown bellowing about his side show. Let's listen to what he is saying. "Step right up folks and see Hewitt Cabirac and his daring snake show; Thomas L'Hoste and his sword swallowing act. Step in and see Kirk Drake and Rosario Drago and their famous comedy act. Also Theo Constantine and Pat Costa in their all-time minstrel. See Richard Schaff and Joe Vincent and their popular ballet troupe. HURRY! HURRY! HURRY!" Well, you never can tell whom you might see at a circus. I can see Horace Joffrion and Maurice LeBlanc over there selling cotton candy. Also Jack Davis and Joe Quartano selling hotdogs. Pete Altmeyer and Bobby Davis are both selling "pop". Dan Faherty is peddling some of his salted peanuts, and Milton Speiss is selling programs. And there is Ray Le Blanc selling souvenirs. I think I'll go buy a ticket for the big top. "Mr. Cervini, I would like a ticket for the show. Thank you. "Boy! look at all the celebreties in the crowd.

"Barefoot boy with cheek of tan." If Whittier were around these days in New Orleans we doubt if he would still open up the same way. The lads nowadays in these parts generally go around pretty well shod. The "tan" part would still get by, for, as we pursue our sports, or work, beneath t~e southern sun, in the leisured days of summer, our tmt of skm will surely deepen. It is well to use the summer in recreation from the pressure and worry of study or in gainful work. The reminder cannot be put too strongly, however, that there is no va~ati~n from religious duties. The obligation of Sunday Mass IS still there. It will not be as easy to get to confession and communion as during the school year, but it is important to receive these sacraments. The pleasure of your vacation will be much greater if God has a hand in it. The ole swimmin' hole and the rattletrap jalopy are always safer when you and God are hand in hand. Nobody expects you to spend your vacation in church or on your knees at home. Just remember Him for a few minutes a day and have set times for communion.

And I'm sure you on it. have heard of the "Walking Man" contest. Well the Aloysian is having one called "Who Is The Standing Woman." The prizes are fantastic, but there should be no doubt in your mind that the Aloysian will give a prize if you qualify. Here you when Rastus: "What you call it of the prizes: list a is a gal gits married three times 1. A week-end trip to the moon -biology?" with reservations at the Luna Moe: "Boy, you suttinly am an Hotel; agnoramus! When she gets mar2. A genuine diamond mine; ried two times, that's biology3. The Fort Knox gold supply; and when she gets married 4. A Howard Hughes flying triganothat's times three boat; metry." 5. Two atom bombs; 6. The Standard Oil Company with the rockafeller income. ALSO MANY OTHER PRIZES
Esky: "What would you say, darling, if I told you I pushed my dog team 1000 miles thru ice and snow to tell you I love you?" Eskimoette: "I'd say that was a lot of mush" Sober bystander to weaving drunk: "My good man, why don't you take the street car home?" Drunk: "'Schno use. My wife wot:ldn't let me keep it in the house." A man received an undecipherable prescription from his doctor. After it had been used by the druggist, the prescription was returned to the man who used it for two years as a pass on a railroad, gained admission to dances, movies, and theatres, while in the evenings his daughter used it to practice on the piano. Father (meaningly): "Who is the laziest member of your class, Tommy?" Tommy: "I don't know, pa." "I should think you Father: would know. When all the othet;s are writing their lessons, who sits idly in his seat and watches the rest?" Tommy: "The teacher."
These gentlemen with the formal weapons and equipment aren't going to hurt anybody. They are participators in a Latin project. From the left: J. Nelson. R. Duncan, W. McGann, R. Abadie, E. Rodriguez, and with the sword, C. Deboisblanc.

By Patrick Bellau To the delightful music of Russ Papalia and his popular orchestra, danced the Seniors, Juniors, and their dates, a capacity crowd, on the airy Jung Roof, Friday May 7, at the customary ,Junior-Senio r Prom. Much to the surprise of everyone, the graduates successfully upheld the gala mood prev~liling over the promsters during the band's half-hour intermission with their self-styled variety show. Al Lichtenstein 's impersonation of Al J olson highlighted the show; Lacy Aucoin, and Al Ketchum's "Conversatio n Between Two Monkeys" brought roars of laughter from the dancers as well as the few Brothers who chaperoned the event. With Lacy acting as M. C, the audience was introduced to such singing favorites as Frankie Lane, Jake Smith, Jimmy Durante, and even tobacco auctioneer "F. E. Boone of Lexington, Ky."-all of which were exceptionally well done by Al Ketchum. By the way, was that other guest Jimmy Stewart or Edgar G. Robinson? The writer was rather confused - perhaps the noise? Also among the surprise, during the intermission, was the celebration of debater Mike Levy's birthday by sveral of his friends. (He's getting closer to that draft age). For the deserving Mother's Club members acting as chaperones the band dedicated a special piece and the grateful seniors lost no time in helping them enjoy it.
