CARDINAL MOONEY
Tremendous Source for Good

"Cardinal Mooney was always a tremendous source for good," said President Eisenhower. "His influence was not confined to his church alone. It extended to all who believed in the spiritual worth of the individual and in the brotherhood of man."
Cardinal Edward Mooney guided the Catholics of Detroit in their rights and responsibilities to their

faith. Under his organization the Catholic Trade Union was established and promoted in Detroit to lessen the influence of Communism or union.
At all times, His Eminence was interested in international peace besides the domestic and social problems, praying that, "All nations may even in this nuclear age enjoy the security of a just and

lasting peace."
During his career he served the Church on three continents, Asia, North America, and Europe. In 1923 he was appointed spiritual director of the North American College and in 1926 he became Apostolic Delegate to India.
In 1937 he was named first Archbishop ok Detroit and was made Cardinal in 1946.

Replaces Contata

   SAH Library Aide Club took the opportunity to encourage "intellectual appreciation."
   "We want the students to read more than just pleasure books," explained S. M. Regina, library director. "Our objective is to have them draw out the classics and more solid reading material."
   "Another aim is to stimulate the students to read more and faster. This explains the policy of non-renewals."
   During Book Week the Library Aides got an idea of who is getting the most use of the library. With the results of questionnaires sent to the homerooms, its report on the users of library permits and improvements or changes needed in the library system will be made.

Drive Profits CSMC

   "I know the missions sincerely appreciated the work of the students in the Christmas Card Drive," explained CSMC president, Don Mordell. "Perhaps that is why it was such a success."
   "We wanted the students to work for the honor and glory of God and for the missions," volunteered S. M. Joanella, moderator.
   The drive was spurred on by a race between homerooms with 114 coming out first followed by 216 and 119.

Editorial
Pontiff's Crown
Also a Cross

   The Pope is dead! Long live the Pope!
   Catholics throughout the world utter these words once more as Peter's 262nd successor, Pope John XXIII, mounts the throne.
   Our new Pontiff's crown is a heavy one to bear and he cannot do it alone. As a member of the Mystical Body, each Catholic must work to keep this Body strong.
   Today, the Pontiff's crown of glory and love is also a cross and only prayer and sacrifice will give him the strength to carry it.

Organizations
Attract SAHers

   The problems of our time arise out of man's relation to man, rather than his relation to the physical world. This summaries the philosophy of the youth organization, the Junior Round Table.
   The J.R.T. is sponsored by the National Conference of Christians and Jews. Its membership is open to all of high-school age.
   Representatives of St. Anthony's, Peggy Patterson 216 and Winnie McCarthy 218, both agree that "J.R.T. is a profitable

Future Teachers
Explore Career

"I think we came back with a lot," commented S. M. Joel, moderator of the Future Teachers Club, about the workshop meeting at Eastern Michigan College, October 25.

   The program consisted of two general assemblies and 22 group meetings. Carol Gloss, grow leader from St. Tony, presided over a group which discussed "Program Activities."
   "Cadet teaching should be a definite program for F. T. A. clubs," emphasized Dr. Fisher, E.M.C. sponsor. "The only way you can decide whether to be a teacher is to get in there and work with the kids."
   "Experience directly with youth is all-important and most profitable." He advised cadet teachers to "work under the guidance of qualified teachers in positions as teachers, counselors, catechists, or any such occupation."
   Continuing on the importance of cadet teaching, Feature Speaker Miss Ruth Winter, Michigan teacher of the year, expressed that it is vital because "we cannot have uninspired or poorly prepared teachers."
   "We must show the public how closely related the school is to the kind of government we wish to live under. We have the challenge of educating the American child for leadership, both social and economical."

Scrooge Play
Underway

   A Christmas play presenting the lack of Christmas spirit? Yes, in one man's life, at least. Dick Kordos 217 will portray Ebeneezer Scrooge when St. Anthony's Mixed Chorus presents "The Stingiest Man in Town."
   Actors find learning new lines none too easy. "I never can keep the place," complains Linda Lennert 214. "Rehearsals often are very amusing," commented Sister Mary Carl, the director.
   Work on stage began in October. "Lighting is far from the least of our worries," explained Al Bauman 214. The stage crew, consisting of Bob Garavaglia 312, Greg Sobczak 214, Dave Luke 116, and Dave Gracki 314, prepares scenery, props, and special effects.
   Setting and costumes are all modern with everyone providing his own costume.
   As part of the program, the Girls' Glee Club will sing selections appropriate for the season including "O Child Divine" and "Jesu Bambino."
