Russ Papalia's Orchestra Featured At Senior Prom St. Aloysius staged its Senior Prom, Monday, May 16, in the Tulane Room of the Jung Hotel from 8 to 12 P.M. As has been traditional in past years, the music was provided by Russ Papalia's orchestra. Although the Prom was formal for the girls, it was informal for the boys. Brother Mark S.C. principal, gave the seniors the option of wearing tuxedoes or suits. Punch and sandwiche s were served, and members of the Mothers' Club acted as chaperones . .Brother Louis, who handled the details of the Prom, attributed the large turnout to the fact that the Prom was the last big social event for the seniors.

Archbishop Commemorates Silver Jubilee; Receives Praise For His Accomplishments On May 15, 1935, a stranger entered the City of New Orleans. A stranger he was, but his welcome was that of a family joyfully greeting its father. The father? Archbishop Joseph Francis Rummel, S.T.D. No longer is the Archbishop a stranger, for he has guided the faithful 25 years. This intimate occasion is heightened by the fact that His Excelleny has served longer titan any other of the 13 prelates preceding him.
Born in Baden, Germany, on October 14, 1876, Joseph Rummel came to the United States in 1882. Fourteen years
later, he studied at St. Joseph's Seminary, Dunwoodie, New York, and at the North American college, Rome. After being ordained in Rome May 24, 1902, Father finished his studies and gained a Doctorate in Sacred Theology. Sent back to New York, Father Rummel spent four years as curate and devoted 21 years as pastor of three different parishes in New York. Because of his interest in charitable and civic affairs, Father Rummel was named by Pope Pius XI as executive secretary of a relief committee that raised contributions from all over the country. During 1\lay of 1928, Cardinal Hayes of New York consecrated Father Joseph F. Rummel as fourth Bishop of Omaha, Nebraska. After acting host to the Sixth National Eurcharistic Congress, Bis· hop Rummel led a campaign in 1933 in raising over $2 million for diocesan development and charita· ble organizations. Soon after his ascension as Archbishop in New Orleans, the Eighth National Eucharistic Congress was convened here in 1938.
Other striking demonstrations of the Catholic Faith during His Excellency's tenure were the beautiful Marian Year Mass, Father Peyton's Family Rosary Crusade, the Holy Name Convention last fall, and numerous national conventions. Archbishop Rummel began a rigorous deveJopment of the archdiocese despite the lasting blO\Vs of the depression years. Reorganization and strengthening of Chancery and Tribunal procedures and staffs, establishment of the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, promotion of education and charitable work, and a tremendous building program: all merely touch upon his accomplishments. Because of the generous response of the faithful, the Youth Progress Program of 1945 and the Diocesan Campaign of Progress in 1958 surpassed their goals and made a number of advances, particularly in education and work for youth. In addition to his arduous schedule in the archdiocese, His Excellency served
Archbishoi> Joseph F. Rtunmel, S.T.D.
11 years as Episcopal chairman of the Catholic Committee for Refugees. He was a member of the Administrative Board of the National Catholic Welfare Conference for 14 years and Episcopal chairman of its various departments 16 years. He still serves in other national posts. SpiritualJy, the City's growth is amaz· ing. The Cath'nlic population has risen from 329,351 in 1935, to 617,961 as listed in the Official Catholic Directory. Parishes have grown from 132 to 180; ami priests, from 344. to 569. Infant baptisms increased from 9,688 to 20,863; and con· verts, from 863 to 1,325. Other indications of the leadership of Archbishop Rummel, of the devoted efforts of priests and religious, and of the generous sacrifices of the people are shown in the growth of Catholic schools, students, and teaching personnel. Gathered in Loyola Field House March 19, the Archbishop's patronal feast day, 6,000 students honored him in singing a Solemn High Mass. Archbishop Rummel's warmth of spirit and his love of children was shown in his stops at Hope Haven and Madonna Manor upon his arrival 25 years ago. In a touching talk then, the Archbishop said that it was fitting that his first greetings were to orphaned children since his last farewell was to orphans in Omaha. In recognition of his wise guidance and inspired leadership as chief shepherd and spiritual father of the faithful of the Archdiocese of New Orleans, St. Aloysius High School, its faculty and its student body, wishes to dedicate this issue of THE AL· OYSIAN in his honor.

In the past few months, the House of Representatives Subcommittee on Legislative Oversight, led by Arkansas Democrat Oren Harris, has been collecting evidence on payola. More recently, the Harris subcommittee has been investigating the most influential disc jockey in America, Dick Clark. Although this teen-age idol, in his appearance at the hearings, has sworn that he has never taken payola in any form, the subcommittee has proved otherwise. Will his popularity among the teenage audience decline?

TO FORGIVE, DIVINE . . . Staff members of this publication humbly bow their heads in shame for the inexcusable errors and omissions in the preceding edition of the paper. Due apologies are those boys whose names were omitted from the Fourth Term Honor Roll. They are: Jeffrey Houin, Room 14; Rene Duffourc, Room 20; Louis Bicocchi, Room 22; William Baur, Room 23; Thomas Masilla, Room 25; and Randall Morel, Room 28. Regrets are also expresse(l for wrongly stating that Room 2 was the winner of the Junior-Senior Intramural tracJ;,: meet. Tlte actual ·victor of the contest was Room 5, and it is to them tlmt tlte apology is llirected. The last apology - the rest are buried in the depths of the grave of reget - goes to Joseph Zehner, a sophomore of Room 17, whose hobby of collecting guns was evidently overlooked in the haste to get to press. BEST SALESl\'IAN . . . August Grimal<li, a junior of Room 6, was selected as a finalist in Junior Achievement uBest Salesman" contest. The 47 candidates were jmlged by members of the New Orleans Sales Executive Club. ATOl\flC SHOW . . . Mr. Lanny S. Moore, a representative of the United States Atomic Energy Commission, presented a program to the student body on April 25 on the basic principles and peaceful applications of atomic energy. He also emphasized the importance and value of science studies to high school students. PRESS CONFERENCE . . . Accompanied by Brother Adrian, S.C., A1oysian moderator, Joseph Murphy, John Schilleci, Gaston Lemoine, Ricky Reso, and Albert Levy represented this publication at the Second Annual High School Press Conference which convened at the Sheraton-Charles Hotel on May 5. Various lectures were given, and a luncheon was served. ATTORNEY AT LARGE . . . Recently, Nicholas J. Gagliano, former graduate, was sworn in as an assistant United States attorney by Federal District Judge Herbert W. Christenberry.

This year the Feast of the Sacred Heart will be celebrated on June 24. Since one of the primary aims of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart is spreading devotion to the Sacred Heart, this feast is of particular importance to them. Because of the materialistic nature of the world today, many people fail to realize the need of reparation. Reparation could not be better offered than to the Sacred Heart, the Center of Love. Students at St. Aloysius have always been helped by the Sacred Heart.

Meet Of Champs Today
by Gary l\Iarks Following successful performance in the Catholic Dictrict and State meets with placings of second and fourth, the Crusader track team sends five candidates to the Meet of Champions today at Behrman. Both the 440 and the 880-yard relay teams, as well as Paul Reinhardt in the broad jump and high jump and Al Nastasi in the 100 and 200-yard dashes, merited invitations to the meet. Reinhardt, Nastasi, and Kerry Howell are on both relay teams which are filled out by Randy Oddo on the 440 team and Tony Dalmado on the 880 squad. In the State Meet, May 13, the Crusaders finished with 221/2 points, a distant fourth to first-place Byrd High's 67 5/6 points. Nastasi placed second in the century and third in the 220-yard dash, while Reinhardt leaped his way to third place in the high and broad jumps. The 440 and 880-yard relay teams finished third and fourth. Leading the team to second place behind Jesuit in the Catholic District Meet Tuesday were Nastasi's wins in the 100 and 220-yard dashes and Reinhardt's first in the high and broad jumps. Robert Sylve merited first in the pole vault, and both the 440 and 880-yard relay teams were victorious with the former breaking the record with a 44.1 seconds effort.

Against Jesuit, the Crusaders were able to win a 9-2 decision, to lose by a 1-0 count, and to end with a 1-1 tie. Leading the team's pitching corps -and the entire league-was Van Quigley. He achieved a 5-2~1 record. Also helping with the pitching chores was Don Delatte and Harold 1\lcGovern. The former had a 1-0-1 reconl; the latter, a 1-0 record for the season. Nailing ·down---the -hitting---lead was Randy Oddo. This Knightlet catcher led the team with a torrid .467 average. Not far behind was Tommy Mendina with a .407 average. Ed McGivern was also responsible for many timely hits. Tommy Mendina, Van Quigley, Bobby Buisson, and Don Delatte have given evidence of much talent.
