t ALBANY —- The dedication of St. Teresa’s Church recently was the fulfillment of the third phase of a parish building pro gram which began with the erection of St. Teresa’s School in 1950. With this project completed the parish set out to construct a new convent. This construc tion, as was the school, was done under the supervision of the Very Rev. Daniel J. Bourke, V. F. who was pastor of the parish at that time. The Convent for the Sisters Adorers of the Most Precious Blood, who staff the School, was completed in 1956 and dedi cated on December 2nd of that year by the Rt. Rev. Msgr. T. James McNamara, Rector of the Cathedral of St. John the Bap tist, Savannah. Father Marvin J. LeFrois and his parishioners can well be proud of the new St. Teresa’s Church which was dedicated on Sunday November 23rd in cere monies presided over by Arch bishop Gerald P. O’Hara. Alsc taking part in the ceremonies was Bishop Thomas J. Mc Donough, Auxiliary-bishop. The new church, located at Maryland Drive and Edgewood Lane was begun early in the year and finished 4 weeks ago.

TERESA'S SCHOOL WAS DEDICATED (This Was First Addition to Parish Plant) COLUMBUS — On Septem ber 2, thirty-four students cross ed the threshhold of the new Holy Family High School. No one knew what to expect; we only knew that it would be the very best. Scores of questions were being “popped” at Sr. M. Annunciata, R.S.M. — “What is our schedule? Will we have a football team? Cheerleaders? A newspaper? Class officers? Class projects?” And of course the al ways present, “Will the other schools recognize us?” With the help of Very Rev. Herman J. Deimel, Pastor; Sr. M. Aurelia, R.S.M., principal; Sr. M. Annunciata, R. S. M., freshmen moderator; Pat Col lins, Athletics Director; and Mrs. Robert Nelson, girls’ gym teacher, all of these details be gan to work out and all our questions were answered in the affirmative. Our schedule was ready: English, Latin or General Language, Algebra, World His tory, Religion, Library Science once a week, and activities. Fa ther Deimel teaches Religion and Mrs. Sam Sherrill, librarian, is the Library Science instruc tor. Now this “activities bit” men tioned on the schedule puzzled us. What could this mean? On Monday and Wednesday, we work on a student newspaper; Friday is devoted to a class meeting; and Tuesday and Thursday are gym days under the direction of Pat Collins and Mrs. Robert Nelson. Louis- Market and Rusty Simmons were chosen as captains of the football team; Patty Sue Leon ard, Peggy Turner, Bette Deutsch, and Mary Murray were chosen girls’ captains. Needed, now, were class of ficers and a newspaper staff. On election day, Larry Mullin was elected to the coveted office of the first president of the fresh men class. Chosen to assist Lar ry were Mary Murry, vice pres ident; Don Cowan, treasurer; and Peggy Land, secretary. These officers have done a fine job carrying out their duties ac cording to parliamentary pro cedure. The class, realizing the need for a good newspaper, headed by a fine staff, selected Bonnie Boyle, editor; Dan Mic hau, associate editor; Paul Wright, sports editor; Kurt Krafski, art editor; Bette Deutsch, exchanges; Steve Tek ulve, circulations; and Johnny McNulty, business manager. “Name! Name!” cried the staff. At a student’s suggestion the name “Ho Fa Hi Lites” (combining the first two letters of Holy Family High) was pick ed. Amid questions, work, and rush, the first issue came out in October. The four-page, mimeo graphed copy, included news ar ticles, features, and an editori al, all of general interest. When the boys started foot ball practice, the girls got to gether and asked, “What is a football game without cheer leaders?” With the help of Mrs. Nelson, at a pep rally, six girls were chosen to act as cheerlead ers. This squad includes Patty Sue Leonard (captain), Mary Murray, Bette Deutsch, Rose mary Brennan, Carol Hester, Peggy Turner, and Little Miss Mary Jo Connolly (mascot). The ferocious nickname, “Vikings,” and the blazing school colors, red and white, both chosen by the freshmen, were announced at this pep meeting. These red and white Vikings, captained by Louis Market and Rusty Simmons and coached by Pat Collins, held a seasonal rec ord of four wins and five losses. Because of the experience gain ed tins season, next year's fine fighting team looks promising. Under the direction of Rose mary Brennan and Patty Sue Leonard, who are Junior Red Cross representatives, the high school is conducting a magazine drive for hospital patients. Oth er drives and projects have been planned for the holidays. This year, under the direction of Mrs. Leo Leonard, a Senior Girl Scout Troop was formed for the high school girls. Also invited to join the troop were . Catholic girls attending public high schools. Officers, of this group are Patty Sue Leonard, president; Rosemary Brennan, vice president; Patty Lagen, treasurer; and Peggy Turner, secretary. This kind of Scout ing is something different and Within Recent Years lew Church Third Addition To St. Teresa’s Parish Plant PAGE 8—THE BULLETIN, December 13, 1958 THE AL “South Georgia’s Reading Habit” exciting for high school girls. Our group’s first project is Life- Saving and Water Safety; after that, flower-arranging is sched uled. Accustomed to and enjoying changes and new adventures, we were delighted when His Excel lency, the Most Reverend Tho mas J. McDonough announced the NEW name of our high school. In honor of the late Pope, we are to be known as Pacelli High. Thus a new era in the history of Catholic educa tion in Columbus has begun with our high school under the direction of the Sisters of Mer cy of the Province of Baltimore. Even though Pacelli High is small, new, and strange to many people, we are proud of our school. We will work to make our school proud of us. People respect and depend on our stu dents. Parents, students, and our many patrons anxiously await each issue of our school news paper, “The Pacellian” (former ly “Ho Fa Hi Lites”). A fully equipped library and modern sports facilities are at our dis posal. Guided and assisted by Pope Pius XII, our patron, we will be a credit to our fellow students, our teachers, parents, and supporters. We realize that everything has been given to us through sacrifice, and we are thankful.
