Mother Mary Hilda Presents College Rings

G. Fontaine and B. Hennessey, Co-Chairmen of Ring Dance The campus comes to life. On February 6, the Juniors were displaying the proud reward of their years at Salve R egi na-the College Ring. This impressive ceremony was followed by the Sapphire Ball, an evening looked forward to by the Class of 1960. On Saturday evening, February 7, the Great H all resounded with the music of larry lane's Orchestra from 9:30 to 12:00 p.m. The formal attire of floor-length gowns and tuxedoes enhanced the beauty of the surroundings. During the intermission a jazz s:.'ssion was planned for the added amuseme nt of all. The favors were gold-plated keys with the college emblem on gold chains for the girls. Their escorts received printed invitations in keeping with the formal atmosphere. The committee for the dance was headed by Gail Fontai ne, chairman and Eli zabeth H ennessey, co-chairman. The committee members were Patricia Dunigan, Nancy Ke lley, Elizabeth lawton, Patricia lyons, Phyllis Coffey, decorations; J eanne Sansonne, Alice losordo, Barbara Travers, Marie Klement, M artha lyo ns, program; Monique Geffroy, Elizabeth Rogan, Sandra Gai, lorrerra Maguire, entertainment; D ea nna Encalada, Ire ne Scorpio, Elaine Fiaschetti, Irene McCarthy, Virginia Ierardi, refreshments; Gail Fisher, Arlene D eGaetano, M aureen Grimes, lois Scriven, favors; Ann Martin, Carole Brown, Frances Claffey, Geraldine Condon, Aileen Cost:~, publicity. The guests were Reverend Father Irving A. Georges, O.P., Reverend John T. Shea, Mr. and Mrs. J ames Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. Schubert Fontaine, Mrs. Cha rles Gai. Hele na D'Almeida planned a parry at her home from 6:45 to 7 :4 5 p.m. This buffet dinner and open house began the even ing.

Brenda Phelan Heads Bazaar The Sophomore class is buzzing with activity these days, and the reason can probably be found in their p lanning for the Mission Bazaar sponsor·ed annually by each Sophomore class. The proceeds of this benefit will be donated ro the missions. The Bazaar, which will be held on March 9 as a Lemen project, should prove to be very success ful , if some of th·e plans announced by Brenda Phelan , chairman, are taken as clues. The feature drawing will be for a beautiful Hi-Fi record player o n which th e class expects ro sell many chances. Another attraction will be handwriting ana lysis by Sophomore Mary Silva, an expert in that field. Anyone may bring in samples of handwriting of beaux, friends, and relatives for character analysis. There wi ll be various rabies to be managed by the Sophomores. Games of skill will be presented and refreshments will be available.

Every class eagerly :~wa its the day when its members will receive th eir colleg:o rings. Perhaps this anticipation can be attributed nor onl y to th e beaury o f the rings which is self-evidem, bur also to the her tha t its reception mar ks a goal in the academic life. That is a feeling of achievem ent and jus tified pride, and the reminder that the light of commencement day is gleaming brighter. On Friday, February 6, this m omen rous occasion arrived for the class d '60. At 3 :00p.m. seventy-six juniors, in full acade mic dress advanced singl·e-fi le down rhe Great Staircase ro the replica of their ring. H ere, Wanda Ter·eska unfastened the ribbon about each girl 's neck from which the star sapphire was suspended and gave the rings to Mother Mary Hilch, R.S.M. for formal presentation. The juniors then passed through the rep! ica at'd formed a semi-circle facing the audience ro sing the alma m:~ter and other school songs. The Revere nd Father Georges, O.P., Morher Mary Hilda, R.S.M. , Sister Mary Rosalia, R.S.M. , and the Vice President of the Class, Nan Kelley, then addressed the assem bled parents and students. Beverly Deleone offered the congratulations of the freshman class ro their junior sisters and Helena D 'Aimeid a expressed the sincere gratitude and appreciation o f each junior. Bened iction, followed by a reception for parents and students in the dining room, closed the ceremony.

Future Teachers Aided by National Defense Loan R ecently, Salve Regina College was informed that she had been allotted $2,7 01 for dist:ibution in accordance with the National Defense Student Loan Program. To this sum , the college has added an additional $300, making the total $3 ,001. This is a nation wide program that provides loans to students und er easy terms so that the borrowers may later enter public elementary or secondary school systems. No student may be loaned more than $1,000 in a year, or more than $5,000 from the funds established under this act. The money is loaned at a three p er cent interest and it begins to accrue and payment started one year after the borrower ceases to be a full time college student. Another method of payment of the loan would be to have te n per cent of the principle forgiven · by reaching full time in 8.n elementary or secondary school up to a total of Jive years. When distributing the loans special co nsiderat ion will be g iven to the students with a superior academic background ind icaring a superior capacity or preparation in science, m:tthematics, or a mod ern fore ig n lan gu~tge. Onl y students who are in need of the amount to per sue such courses of stud ies may borrow from this loan. These loans ma y be used to defray any of the college expenses, even special fees.

Teachers are desperate ly needed for the school systems of this country. This program will en able more opportunities fnr those rh ~tt wish to be reachers and could not do it without some outside help.

The Star Sapphire

~ta7- ~apj2hi7-t:

[/t1- ~!JmbolL1-n2 [/t1- c:/11{ t:anin9 The Star Sapphire, mounted in a golden band, is ever so gently slipped onro her finger. She understands irs meaning now, and withour hesitation she "leaves behind the things of a child." For she stands, at last, so tall and straight, on a pedestal of awareness, of the realization of her heritage, and of her responsibilities. The ring of gold is a symbol of eternity, of precious rime without end. It binds with a power greater than that of force, for the contract is one of love. Her college prepares her for eventual undertakings, and she reciprocates with unflinching loyalty. She glances dow n with tenderness upon the star sapphire srone. It shines with a blue light of faithfulness, and in that glow she sees Our Blessed Mother, Star of the Sea. On the right of the ring is stamped the seal of the co!legeMary, our Hope. Our Lady stands with the Christ Child on a globe of the world. And at her feet are the Book of Knowledge, and the Lamp of Learning, tokens of the scholarship for which the student must strive. On the opposite side is engraved the Mercy shield , the cross of sacrifi ce, white bands of purity, and red bands of coumge. Our student holds her head high . On her finger she bears now a reminder of her pride in, and her obligations ro, her college . . . Salve Regina.

February' Invitation February is Catholic Press Month and during this rime, there is an added effort to instill a greater appreciation for Catholic literature throughout the country. The Providence Visitor is our diocesa n newspaper. In it, one finds pertinent news-srories on current Catholicism and problems, re: Catholic Action both on a narion::d and regional level. On rhe edirorial page, rhe reader discovers a greater insight into current problems through the opinions of leading Catholic authors. As in all leading papers, there are syndicated columns.. Chief amo ng these is "God Loves You" by the Most Reverend Fulton J. Sh t·en . Every week there is an account and interpretation of rhe gospel for the coming Sunday. Act ivities of women's clubs. K. of C., C. Y. 0. and the Catholic schools and colleges are faithfully record·ed. To aid movi e-goers, the Mov ie Guide is reprinted weekly. We are one of the more fortunate dioceses in having our weekly "Visitor" but without support, it is virtu:dly impossible for it ro function effectively. This does nor apply solely to the Proz,.idcnce V isitor for we should also support Catholic magazines and books. Why not accept the invitation Februa ry brings? Support Carbolic publications and become more imbibed with Catholic literature.

S. G. A. Sponsors Song Contest The Student Council recenrly announced that they are sponsoring a conresr for two new school songs. Anyone that is interested may submit a song with an origi nal or popular melody in an en velope and a number will be pur on ir for the final judging.

Salve Regina Initiates Weekend Retreats A retreat is a special invitation extended by God to spend a shor· vacation exclusively with Him . It is rhe time to place yours·elf at His side, to speak ro Him through prayer, ro seek His help through faith, and ro merit His blessings through love. This vacation with God is an ·excellent opportunity to make up for those moments when you just didn't have the rime for the religious exercises in which you would have liked to participate. It is the chance ro know more intimately the cause of your existence and ro grow more strong in your love of Him and faith in Him . This year at Salve Regina the requirement that an annual retreat be made by each Catholic student has been made more attractive by offering four retreats at various rimes during the second semester from which you may choose. Two of these sessions will be held during February and rwo more will be held during March. Since the retreats wi ll be held on weekends there will be more opportunity for spiritual meditation without rhe distraction caused by classes and smdy. Thrcughour the days of retreat, the spiriwal guidance will be provided by thr·ee note-worthy retreat masters among whom are Father Charles L. Wallen , C.S.C and Father Phi lip C. Kelly, C.S.C. in February. Father J ohn B. Walchars, S.J. will give both retreats in March. The first retreat in March has been scheduled for the Sodality members so they may fu lfi ll the obligation of making an annual retreat rogerher. The long lasting Sipirirua l benefits afforded you on these vacations with G od cannot be looked upon lightly. Do accept His invitation and make the most of your retreat weekend.

Repay Him Now! LENT-the word itself awes me almost ro the point where it scares me. Can I ever begin to repay }f irn for all He did for me. To save me, He d ied on rhe Crossthat was the price of His gift to me. Do I have what it takes to even begin to pay such a price. I really don't think so, bur unless I try, unless I at least make an atrempr, I will never really know. This will have to be the best Lent I have ever made. It has to be- l have wasted too many ; it wi ll take many good Lents ro begin to repay Him. I can't be selfish either-He wasn't. All He thought of was that I was His child and }fe loved me. I say I love Him. All I have to do now is ro prove it. I can go to daily Mass and make the Stations of the Cross-just litrle things. He will help me conquer my fear. In Him, I will find the strength to make a really good Lent. From His love, I will draw my love-the Jove ro pay the great price.

\'V' e wish ro express our deepest sym parhy to: Barbara Balzano for the death of her FATHER She lia Murphy for the death of her FATHER.

K. C. Sullivan, O .P. Addressed Group Very Reverend Kenneth C. Su llivan , O.P., addressed the fam ily life unit of N.F.C.C.S. on February 18.

Many practices spring up, grow and become rrad itional with the growth of a you ng college. One of these practices at Salve R eg ina is the burning of a wedding lamp J n Our Lady's altar on the morning of :1 Salve Regina bride's weddi ng day. The day that the announcement is received at the coll ege, the dare is record·ed and on that day from e.trly morning and through the night a tiny light keeps vigil before Our Lady ro ask her help and intercession for a long and happy marriage. The lamp is in the shape of a silver wedding band symbolizing unity. It is surmounted by a cross to emphasize the third parry eve rpresent in the happy marriage which will nor be without irs cross of sacrifice. The vigil is blue, Our Lady's color and rests in a silver crown, Our Lady's. The lamp was designed and made by Mr. John and Mr. Paul Cavanaugh and was donated by Patricia Thorpe Wellham of the class of

1952.

Point System Initiated The fields of Home Economics have been exp lored during the p:~sr few months with the aid of several excellent lectures. A few of the speakers have talked on Home Demonstration work, Christmas decorations, and Appliance Demonstration. A look to ~he future brings a gleam to the eye when Mr. Tilden, a Gemologist, from Tilden Thurber Company will talk diamonds. This year the club has instituted a point sysrern for irs members concerning club advancement. The more points a girl obtains by being on commim::es the b::rrer are her chances for becoming a club officer or delegate. This system has been found to further club loyalty and leadership.

Portrait Of ... ? Popular with all she encounters, competent in all she undertakes, yet so gentle and unass uming - owner of all these qualities among others is last year's president of the sophomore class and rhis year's president of the junior class, Miss Helena D 'A lmeida. Dark eyes, placid or alive, somehow indicate her person,tble ways, loyalty, and sJnc•eri ry. Her name has often frequented the D ean's List and a.mosr automatically she is .tssociared with the Student Council , since she has been a nKmb·~ r from freshman year. Helena s repertoire would be most incomplete if the fact that she is an ardent P. C. enth usiast were omitted. Hdena hails from Pawruch :r, Rhode Island, and she arr·e nded Sr. M ary's Academy, Bay View. While at Bay \' ie w, she was also quite active in various activities. Member of Our Lady's Sodality we concur that Helena, as well rounded as she is, IS an excelle nt model of a Salve Regina girl.

Commuter's Club Review Work Of 1958 The Commuter's Club would like ro extend a warm welcome co all the returning Seniors, especia lly rhe commuting Seniors. They deserve hearty congratulat ions for the fine work they have done as student reachers and nurses. J anuary was a hectic m onth on campus. First semesrer came ro a close rather abruptly. Examinations rook over the limelight. There was very little socia l activity among Commuter's Club m embers, except of course, scholarly ch it-chat during lunch or at odd moments during rhe day. H owever, a few gi rls did m anage ro attend the Red Cross dance at the Naval H ospital. The dance was a success in every way possible. The young N avy men at the dance were wonderful hosts. They look forward to each dance. In fact, they pur a great deal of rime and effort into m aking preparations for the dance. They are really quire ingenious when it comes ro m aki ng decorations. For instance, January's dance bad a winter theme of giant snowflakes. A meeting of the Commuter's Club wi ll be held in Febru ary. At the meeting plans for the coming weeks will be discussed . At present all plans are tentative. H owever, the Commuters do hope to work on a special lenten project.

Only once during the year does H oly M acher Church set aside a speci,d rime for her members to be repenrenr for the sins and b l a~phemies aga inst Our lord. We, who accept so much from Our Savior in a casua l manner have this period of forty days to give speci;l] thanks in the best way that we know-by denying ourselves li ttl e things. It is much better ro give than receive-and even these so trite sacrifices show Our lcrd that we are thankful for all H e has done fo r us and are sorrowful for all the wavs in which we have offend~d Him. H ere at Salve Regina we are more fortunate than others at this holy season of Lent. The chape l is a lways open to us; we may go and meditate, say the stations, or an extra rosary whenever time permirs. D aily Mass is offered and this year Father Georges is giving a Lenten talk each Wednesday at 6:30 with benediction and confession afterwards. Think of all Jesus has done for usthe opportun ities are gold en, we all can give Him a few more minutes during the day.
