HEADMASTER'S MESSAGE

On each section page of this volume is a little vehicle well known to St, Martin's students as "your little red wagon," For many years our high school science students have been confronted with this bit of symbolism uttered by one of their favorite science teachers; his way of saying, "this is your responsibility."

Responsibility is a word often heard in high school, so much so that its real merit is likely to be blighted in the minds of those for whom it is intended, It is a particularly important term that has several levels of significance in our lives. Each of us is likely to think of responsibility at first only in terms of his individual welfare, Homework is done, book reports are made, school routines are followed, and much effort is put forth in studying for examinations, all because these things increase the stature of the individual, Another aspect of responsibility not so easily assumed by most, is doing for others, This facet of the term is motivated by a real concern for the welfare and success of one's friends and associates. Being an active participant in school a ff airs. showing. loyalty to those whom we hold near and dear, being a team player, a dependable committee member, or just being considerate of the welfare of the group in the classroom are common illustrations of responsibility on this level, Then, there is the type of responsibility most difficult to assume because it does not result in immediate benefit to the individual or his associates. This type comes from a sense of duty to the community and society of which one is a part and is not motivated by personal gain. Students who commit themselves in this manner, unfortunately too few, are eager to make the most of their own potential in order that they in turn may make their greatest contribution. These are the students who go beyond the call of duty in order to know, to understand, to serve, From these will come the dedicated teachers, preachers, doctors, statesmen, and builders whose primary aim is to be of service.

The editorial staff, in choosing, whether by chance or design, the symbol of the little red wagon, has indeed made a most timely selection, Has there ever been a time when the assumption of responsibility in all of its aspects was more important than now? And speaking of responsibility, the students and faculty sponsor who labored so diligently to create this fine publication merit a most sincere "thank you" from all of us,

CHAPEL

A Christian school intends to be just a large family where appreciation and concern for each other is evident by the many things said and done, At chapel our family gathers to deepen our relationships with each other by our adoration of God, Here we bring not only our praise of God, but also our failures as His children, If the spirit of love and the ability to care are to grow in our lives, then chapel stands as a mighty symbol of our need and God's action to meet that need,

SEASON HliGHLliGHTS

During the football season, Junior Varsity games, usually held on Saturday mornings, brought out many upper school students. The junior cheerleaders and spectators helped to add to the spirit of the games. The St. Martin's J, V. played only three other teams this year, but, playing each team twice, they came out with a very exciting season. Because of the Saints' unusually strong defense, a result of good team effort, only the Country Day Daisies were able to score against the powerful St, Martin's line. There were many outstanding players who should be able to contribute a great deal to the 1959 Varsity team.

The 1959 Varsity Basketball team ended the season with a record of five victories and six losses. In addition to the games scheduled by the Riverside League, the Saints competed in four pre-season games a nd two tournaments. St. Martin's defeated Bellech ase, lost to Port Sulphur, and beat Behrman in the consolation, pl acing third in the Riverside Pre-Christmas Tournament. In the Nor co tournament, the Saints beat Hahnville but were knocked out by Destrehan in the second round. In spite of being hindered by some injuries, the group showed real team spirit and sportsmanship throughout the season.

The Junior Varsity Schedule this year included four pre-season games and ten Riverside League Games. In the pre-season games, the J. V. played and lost two times to Fortier, 32-23; 40-30. They redeemed this by twice defeating Nicholls, 2'1-16; 39-32. The first two league games did not encourage the boys, for their efforts did not bring them victory. These games, however, made them play all the harder and they didn't lose another game the whole season! The J. V. averaged 36 points a game while their opponents averaged just 23. Another interesting statistic is that for every 10 points the Saints made, their opponents ratio was 4. Had they won the first or second game, they'd have been in the league play-offs.

The Student Council this year inaugurated an intramurals program for the first time which was extremely successful, The boys' intramurals worked better than the girls' because of the rivalry which developed between tt!ams. There were two sessions of intramurals, one during the football season, and one during basketball. In the first session, competition was in volleyball, and in the second, it was touch football, The teams played a round-robin tournament, and the champions played an exhibition game against an all-star team.

STUDENT COUNCIL

Elections for 1958-59 representatives and officers were held in May of the preceding school year. The third student council in the history of St. Martin's, it was perhaps the most successful thus far. There is evidence of this in the success of this year's homecoming dance, Thanksgiving project, intramural sports, the annual Christmas program, and other Student Council projects.

At St. Martin's everyone reads THE HALO, the school's official newspaper publication. In it, stµdents find articles about their most recent activities, especially sports, and information about important coming events. There is an editorial and a message from the headmaster, for the purpose of encouraging students to apply themselves to their work, and to think more seriously about the future. On the lighter side, however, i s a variety of poems, gossip, and compositions which are written humorously. Articles concerning projects in the lower school are placed in a special section of the paper, "Little Big Shots." These news-reports are actually written by students in the elementary grades.

The work which goes into THE HALO is handled by those in the hi gh school who are on the Halo Staff, and their faculty advisor. These people should be highly congratulated for the entertainment and enjoyment with which they provide the rest of the school. Homerooms are quieter on the eight mornings THE HALO is delivered than any other time during the year.

Finalists: Bob Head and Bruce Comay

These scholarship tests provide a wonderful opportunit y for all high school graudates who have maintained high enough averages. Those whose records are sufficient may take the first tests, in Math and English. From the resu l ts of these examinations, semifinalists are chosen, and then finalists. The tests may prove beneficial even if one does not enter the finals, since a person's placement is in comparison to students all over the United States, and universities will possibly consider and be greatly impressed by those with high ratings.

SENIOR TRIP

The Capitol Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

For the second year in a row, St. Martin's seniors visited Washington, D.C., delighted to find it blanketed in snow and ice. They spent four days in the capitol city, and in that time they toured many of our government's important buildings. They saw the monuments which are memorials to some of the great men of our nation. Last, but probably not the least, they enjoyed the winter weather and the ice skating and snowball fights.

Although some students had been to Washington before, they found it a completely new and different experience to go there with their classmates.

FIELD TRKJPS

St. Martin's is a very fortunate school when it comes to taking field trips , because there are usually school buses available to take students on such excursions. Because classes in the lower school have the same teacher for all their subjects, they can really take advantage of the opportunity to take field trips. Every year some go to the airport, fire-stations, dairies, bakeries, wharfs, the St. Louis Cathedral and other historic sites. Certainly the students at St. Martin's have been able to gain experiences and to learn about things which add greatly to their classroom work.

In the fall of each year, the Mothers' Club presents a book display for parents, teachers, and students to browse through. They have gathered together a wide selection from which books in almost every field of literature may be ordered. The proceeds are donated to the St. Martin's library to purchase books for our own school library.

BOOK WEEK

BOYS 1 AND GIRLS 1 ST A TE

Boys' and Girls' State are conventions which are held every su mmer for ten days in Baton Rouge, Louisiana's state capital. The purpose of these con• ventions is to acquaint young citizens with the organization of city and state government. There are delegates from high schools all over the state, so that representation from each school is limited, and it is an honor to be chosen. This year , St. Martin's was represented by Chip Favrot and Jeannette Boykin.

STYLE SHOW

The overflowing gym, the girls modeling the wonderful new winter fashions, the boys in their new football uniforms--all helped to make this year's style show one of the best. It is presented annually by D. H. Holmes for the St. Martin's Mothers' Club with our students participating. The purpose is to increase the scholarship fund for deserving students.
