HISTORICAL RESU!\'lE Chaminadc, kn ow n as Cath olic High during th e sc holasti c yea r 1927- 1928, now com pletes the second year of its h isto ry, th e fi rst as a fo ur yea r hi gh school. ' In these tw o ye a r s so many uniform ly successf ul activities claimed th e attention o f t he stud ent body a nd general public th a t our li mited space allows but the sh ort es t o f summa r ies. Four hundred and fifty pupil s we r e p r ese nt for the Solemn Mass at E mm a nu el's Church w hich mark ed the inception o f a school which has already been r ecog nized as th e outsta nding high sc hool of Day ton. On that occasio n Rev er end Lawrence A.. Yeske. S. 1\1[', predicted the policy o f the new instituti on. "Catholic youth ,viII attend th is hi g h sch ool a nd wi ll be taug ht science, lit erat ur e and comme rce a s completely as anywhere else. \ Ve y ield to non e w hen it comes to prowess in inte llect ual pursuits. \\le also r ealize that a healthy body must house a health y mind and wi ll encourage athletic competiti on for aiL" "But above ph ys ical and menta l development we w ill str ess the need of mo ral development. of chara cter for mation. In yea rs to co m e yo u are to be leaders in civic and business endeavo r. leaders in Ca th olic enterpri se a nd thought. As a preparation fo r such responsibili ties you must be t rain ed to patience and obedience. to se ri ous application and st ud y. to self control a nd discipline." Tn the light o f these remarks we review the scho las tic. a thl etic and social ach ievements of the school. From th e sc holastic standpoint it is wo rthy of comment th at twenty-four ind ividuals ha ve acted in the ca pacit y of r ep~ r t e r s and special feature w r iter s for th e local newspapers. Scholastic competition. o ft en fo u nd ed upo n so rdid comme rcial mot ives. has bee n ge nera ll y disr ega rded. However. Bernard F oc ke, pres ident of the graduati ng cla ss , brough t hono r to hi s sc hool by placing t hird in a state-wide contest foste red by t he Oh io Federation o f \\' omen's Clubs. His discussion of "\Vhat Mak es a Hom e .M ode r n" was placed in com peti ti o n with 30.000 essays. Dramatic Art was a n educa ti o nal medium for fifty-t wo boys. Und e r t he dir ec ti on of }\r[r. D. C. As ht on four plays h ave been staged: "Seventeen." "Turn to the Ri g ht." "Come Seven" and "Th e Ye ll ow Tria ng le" . The last m enti o ned produ cti on won local dramatic honors for Chaminade and a trip to )Jew Yo rk for the cast as participants in the Dav id Belasco Little Th ea tre Tournament. In the fieJd of athl etics , winning tea ms have been developed in foo tball, basketball . go lf. tennis . sw imming. track a nd bowling. I ntramural leagues in basketball and bowling ha ve contriLuted to a r ealizati on of th e id eal "athl etics for aiL" The bas ketball te a m of 1928-'29. und er the able dir ec ti on o f 1\1 r . \V ill iam Blake, successor to Harry Solimano. reached th e final ro und in the Southw este rn Sectional T o u rnament. 1n golf. Ch aminade won tw o loca l champ ionships and at present ho lds th e Stat e champions hip. One week ago Ca ptai n Edward Hamant won local ind ividual honors in this spo rt. Tn sw imming and th e cross co untry run Ch aminade rank s r es pec ti ve ly, second and third. Th e reco rds ind ica te that in eve ry sport the school has mo re t han held its own aga in st the sti ffes t Class A co mpetition in the sta te. Th e Dads' Club and Pa rent-T eac her Assoc iatio n ha ve spo nso red innum erab le social events incl udin g two banquets a t th e E ng in eers Cl ub th e fir st year and two at th e Hotel Gibbons thi s year.

DA YTON LITTLE THEATRE TROPHY (An emblem of local supremacy.)
DRAMATIC ART T h e fouf product ions of th e Chaminade Dramatic Club ha ve broug h t mo re fame to th e school than any other extra-cu rri cular activity. "Seventeen " was the first play staged by Qur . Th espian s. Conc erning this co medy, D e\ Vitt Nic holas says. "Very interes ting and mos t amusing was the perfo rm ance of Booth T arkington's ' Seven tee n' . The play has bee n voted as one of the fu nni es t o f th e Tarkingto n s to ri es o f youth. so t he sc rip t was to be tak en fo r g rant ed. But not o nl y did th ese yo un gsters ha ve a good play in itself, th ey g ave a ve ry good show . And, added to eve r y thing elsc, was t he a mu sing situation o f a n all-boy cast : which mea ns t hat the 'Baby-ta lk Lad y' a nd a ll th e o th er 'youn g ladies' were boys, dispo rt ing themselves in handsome \V ias and fe minine fi nery-eve ry thing except voice, De\Vitt I\s hto n, who directed th e piece dese r ves sincere credit." A nother critic, A. . ]~a n y , call ed " T urn to th e Right" , "an ambitious production s ta ged w ith a n unusual exactness of deta il a nd ena cted in co nsiderab ly more than a mer ely adequate way. It was rathe r a tr emend ous und er taking, especiall y in t he scen ic equipment. req uirin g four heav y se ttings. A ll th ese ancl th e move ments of th e acto r s there in were we ll ma naged," The t hird production '; Come Seven" eli cits favo rable com ment from James :Mui r . "So successfull y did the members o f th e cast play th eir parts that both dial ect and characterization were ve ry sa ti s fa ctory. Th e den izens of Birmingh am's black belt were so acc urately photog raphed that in som e cases th ey see med to have ste pped ri g ht ou t of th e pages o f o ne of Me Cohen's Sa turday Evenin g P os t sto ri es ." fmp rovi ng with eac h production th e D ra matic Club se lec ted ;'T he Yellow Triangle", by Geo rge S utton . for presentation in the local D ra mat ic T ournam ent.
