Congratulations!!

Yes, that is what goes to the Tennis Team of '56. As you all know, this team includes:

Mixed Doubles - Billy Howell and Shirley Farish
Girls Doubles - Kay Stewart and Catherine Meyer
Boys Doubles - Tim Vollor and Frank McLesky
Girls Singles - Mary Campbell
Boys Singles - George Evans

Even though the team didn't reach to the finals of the District Tournament in Jackson, on May 3, they did an excellent job for their first year. Maybe next year they will be as good as "Little Moe"!!!! The team would like to give our thanks to the person who organized the team, Joyce Jamison. What she has done for us during the past year cannot fully be explained in words. Here's hoping that next years coach will measure up to this years. So thanks.........

Each year a Senior girl gets the honor of crowning the Blessed Virgin in the May procession. This year Janice Jabour crowns Her, and Josephine Norah is her Maid of Honor. Congratulations, girls, and God bless you! (Taken from the 1956 Maryon)

The high school Sodality held a crowing of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Sunday, May 20, at 1:30, in the convent chapel. Delia Durst, Sodality Prefect, crowned Our Lady, and Betty McIntyre, Chairman of Our Lady's Committee carried the Queen's crown in the beautiful and very impressive ceremony. All Sodalists took part as attendants in this salute to our beloved patroness.

The Saint Francis Xavier Academy High School Sodality and the Saint Aloysius Confraternity held several meetings in the O'Beirne Gymnasium this year. These meetings were to discuss the qualities and virtues that are expected in a good Christian boy or girl.

Several boys made speeches on what qualities and virtues they expected in a girl. Among those making speeches were Teddy Marshall, Ray Terry, Perry Hale, and Jesse Jones. The girls were not left out as we had several comments as to what qualities and virtues we expect in a good Christian boy. Among the girls to speak were Delia Durst, Zita Long, and Mary Campbell.

All of these meetings prove to be a big help and we want to thank Brother Berchman for his co-operation and guidance.

The Sodality would not be right without having new girls. The Freshmen have made good ones and we want them to know we are looking forward to having them as members next fall.
