Student's Car Wins In Honorary Awards How would a rear-engine designed automobile, with "slight touch" sunken door handles and luggage compartments in its fenders sound to you? Good? It sounded that way to the Honorary Board of Judges for the 1948 Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild's model aut>>mobile contest sponsored by General Motors Corp. when they judged the entry of a certain New Orleans' boy. Contest from Magazine Donald F. Sivori, senior of Room 1 and studE.nt here for the past 5 years, was "just reading a magazine when I spotted this contest and since it looked interesting, thought I'd give it a try." "Making the model was sorta' tough, but everything turned out well." Smiling he aded, "Receiving an honorable mention and a $15 'Model Builders' tool chest by X-acto Tool Co. makes up for any trouble I went through. I'm gonna' enter it again-next year."

Seniors Explain Freshman Woes Ever wonder why seniors seem so domineering and freshmen "meek as a kitten"? Since schools began, seniors have looked down upon freshmen, who, usually began their school training by having to undergo an uncivilized experiment known as initation. Who does the initating? Seniors! No Limits! Who make freshmen carry their books and substitute for them when they learn that 'blind date' isn't a 'Venus de Milo'? Seniors! But when seniors graduate whom do they invite to the prom? Freshmen? No. Juniors! Peasants! It is reputed that freshmen admire these upperclassmen, but they seem always to get "the rumble seat ride"; yet everyone acts content, accepting it for granted. Seniors Questioned For those few individuals who have wondered why freshmen were so mistreated but were too "timid" to raise their voices in question, the seniors of St. Aloysius have supplied this information: Why is there such a large ('hq~gf~
ll!"P?
F,.e.~"h~e!'!
Who whiz by and knock the hot dog out of your bun as you indulge in a bit of necessity, or cause you to crack your teeth on a pop bottle? Freshmen? Who occupy the coolest classrooms in the summer? Freshmen! Now you know! As regards to sophomores, tests show they're suffering from sophomoritis which, if all goes well, will develop into junioritis, then senioritis, ending up a burden on the freshmen anyway! And it's really their own fault! After all, there wouldn't be any upper classmen, if there were never any freshmen!
