At the CYO meeting held recently, several issues wero discussed concerning the activities of the members during the coming winter months.

It was decided that the ski trip is to be the largest activity of the year. Ways and means to acquire the necessary money for this trip were also discussed, and them was a chili supper, activity in which all of the members 'will take an active part, Coming also, but much sooner than the ski trip, is Catholic Youth Week. The activities for this nationally observed week were discussed and temporary plans were made. One activity will be the annual CYO hayride. Last year this event was attended by over 60 members.

This month's activity was an excursion to Kansas City to see the Lyric Theater production of "Don Pasquale" on Friday September 23 at the Rockhill Theater. Twenty members and five sponsors joined the excursion. "Don Pasquale" is a light comic opera, exactly the opposite of "Madame Butterfly," a drama which was seen in 'chillicothe last year. Sunday September 25, John Conrad, CYO president, and Sandy Gflliam, vice-president, attended a Presbyterian Youth Fellowship meeting held at the Presbyterian church. They spoke to the Fellowship concerning National Catholic Youth Week and obtained support in the activities planned during this week of observance.

All other area youth groups and fellowships have been contacted for their support concerning this week of national observance. Sit, Think, Write Print fright! What's that" Asking this was the junior English class while studying journalism. Self consciousness overcame them when they began to write various articles for the Academy Accents. Many papers were marked up and scratched out. What do they do now? They begin to learn to write what they think and, like you may say, it isn't hard to write an article, a simple paragraph or two.

Think That's it. think Much thought must be put in these stories to make them readable. Right now the amateurs may not like to sit down but they are learning. Lightner. Lay Apostle Added To Join Staff of Catholic Schools This year at SJA three new members have been added to the faculty not only as teachers, but also ao lay apostles of God.

John Triggs, George Walker, and James Baca were sent to Chillicothe by the diocesan bishop to combine their apostolic duties with teach ing.

Mr. Triggs is from Wisconsin Nourishing Lunches Served by Staff At Bishop Hogan Many tons of food are consumed during the school year in Type A lunches, served at the Bishop Ho gan cafeteria. Type A lunch consists of a well-balanced meal. When a school belongs to the National School Lunch Program, the govern ment furnishes many commodities which keep down the price of lunch. For instance, Bishop Hogan has just received 5,000 pounds of enriched flour which will be used for homemade bread, rolls nd other goodies.

All through the year plentiful oods are purchased by the government and distributed to different schools in each state. The govern nent also reimburses the schools a 'ew cents on each Type A lunch served. At the end of the month, reports are sent in to the National School Lunch Program in Jefferson City and they, in turn, mail the school a check for lunches served. Last year approximately 52,200 lunches were served at Bishop Hogan. The qualified staff consists of Paricia Campbell, who attended the National School Lunch convention at Jefferson City last June.

She Dlans and prepares the meals assisted by Esther Pfaff and Borothy Koehly. Mrs. John Crump is the manager and bread maker. Crump. and teaches American history, world history, and world geography in the Academy.

ENTHUSIASTIC ARTISTS BEGIN ON TEXTILES Papier mache, stenciling in textile, and clay sculpturing are just a few of the projects to be under taken in Art 1 under the direction of Mrs. Fred Troop. This year such enthusiasm was shown for beginning art that the number of enrollees doubled, and it was necessary to split the class into two periods. The young artists are now busy with seasonal posters, particular- emphasizing the incoming autumn season.

The second class is working on Halloween bulletin boards. Mrs. Troop says she is planning to enter some of the students' best work into the Art Fair again this Last year Patty Da vis. won first place in sculpturing. Gingerbread Home EC Makes 'Meal' Sister Regina Helps Along With 40 Students.

When the Home Economics I lass consented to help Sister Regina's first grade class make gin- jerbread men, they knew exactly task they had undertaken. On Wednesday, September Sister Regina herded 40 anxious first grade students into the kitchen of Owens Hall. As they restlessly awaited to cut out the gingerbread men, the six Home EC students, with the help of Mrs. Shirley Tye, quickly rolled out the dough which they had prepared earlier that morning. Due to the fact that the oven was overheated, the first batch of gingerbread men burned, which proved that the six students were only learning.

As the hour period came to an end, all 40 students sat very content eating the gingerbread men, which had beea prepared by Rose O'Hara, Margaret Gatson, Laura Rupp, Cleda Brown, Joyce Lauhoff, Linda Lauhoff, Mary Jo Reardon, and Robin Paluga. In grade two, taught by Mrs. Clark, there are 28 students including three new students, Mary Carol Bevier, Tommy Costello, and Rose Marie Hamilton. Primary III is in full swing with 40 lively boys and girls taught by Sister Robert. One of the many interesting and rewarding subjects being studied is the creation of the world, the account of which may be found in the first book of the Bible, The students do know how to pronounce it, too.

If a few little tots are seen running here and there with jars, and butterfly nets, they are doing homework; science homework. The class decided to have a science corner and one of the most productive students is Mark Trager. Mark has brought a fine collection of beautiful butterflies which are mounted on a large cardboard. Under each butterfly, Mark has written its name. In the third grade the new students are Bruce Berg.

Larry anc Academy Eagles Are Stronger Than Ever Coach White Says Prospects Are Good. Coach Bob White and his Academy Eagles have never looked tronger in their bid for the C.L.A.A. softball title. In the pre- ious two seasons, the Eagles have eliminated from the tourney their first game, both by one run margins. The Eagles brought six lettermen back in action this year.

They are catcher David Merriman, first Larry Gatson, third baseman John Conrad, shortstop Dick Saale, center fielder David Pennington, and right fielder Mike Ellison. The other three starters proved be fine replacements for the graduating seniors Jim Ellison, Hike Schneider, and Philip Myers. Denny Lightner, senior, seems slated to take over the pitching assignments for the Eagles. Mark Englert, sophomore, occupied the eft field spot, and Tom Gatson, reshman filled the gap at second base. One of the main problems of a softball team is usually replacements for the starters.

Not so this year, as the Eagles ran in such ine substitutes as junior Gary Mc- sophomore Bill Timmons and freshman Tom Ellison. The Academy Eagles opened their '66 softball season with an mpressive 15-6 victory over the Laredo Tigers in a game played at Simpson Park, Friday, September 9. Striking quickly, the Eagles pounded out eight runs in the Eirst two frames, while the Tigers could manage only three. The mighty Eagles came out big again in the fourth and fifth as they put seven more runs on the scoreboard. In the five inning debut, the Eagles responded for 15 hits, one of which was a towering homer by center fielder.

Dave Pennington. The Tigers could manage only seven hits off two Eagle nurlers. Denny Lightner, pitcher, gained his first victory of the young season for the Eagles, as Bowe took the loss for the Tigers. Pass Bogard Moving on to the second game of the season, the Eagles breezed ass the "always tough" Bogard bikings 11-2 in a game played at Park, Tuesday September 3. Aided by walks and Viking miscues, the Eagles pushed across 0 runs in the first two innings.

Defeat Bulldogs The Eagles brought home their third consecutive victory of the season, Wednesday, September 20, after defeating the Wheeling Bulldogs on the Dogs' home field, by a score of 21-8. Coming into the sixth inning, the Eagles trailed by three runs, before Denny Lightner Reached base on a "Fielder's choice" and Dick Saale walked. John Conrad Brought Lightner home with a single to left field and Dave Pennington promptly doubled Conrad and Saale across the plate.

Larry Gatson then brought him home with a triple to deep centerfield. This gave the Eagles a 7-6 lead going into the last inning. In the seventh the Eagles were aided by walks and Bulldog errors to bring across 4 runs. In the bottom of the inning Wheeling managed two runs off Academy substitutes to account for their runs. Larry Gatson led the way for Eaglettes Close Softball Season; In Pre-Touring Playoff The Academy Eaglettes flew to the end of another softball season last Thursday when they defeated the Hale Cardinalettes by a score of 6-5.

The victory felt especially good to the Academy team because they rallied in the last frame of play to overcome a 5-3 Hale lead and take the match by one run. This concluded another year of action for the softbaUers after their elimination from the conference tournament last week when they were knocked down by the Bogard Vikings in a playoff game before the tourney. The Vikings defeated the Eaglettes by a score of 5-3 at Simpson Park. Earlier this year the Eaglettes handed defeats to the teams from both Wheeling and Laredo. A number of rookie freshmen filled the lineup this year to replace the '66 graduates.

Candi Davis, Carolyn Hecker, Jennifer Ma.hr and Joyce Wilson each started in a number of games and each one also made some sparkling plays. Joyce and Carolyn worked together on shortstop and third while Jennifer watched for any long balls to center field and Candy covered the plate at home. Junior Kristi Smith has well established herself on first base while Juniors Janet Lightner and Rose Ann Myers also saw some action as third baseman and catcher. The only big gap to be filled next year will be at second base which senior veteran Patti Kriegshauser has held for three years. Other senior starters to be replaced are Trudi Timmons, left fielder, and Mary Crookshanks, pitcher.

A student must be popular and possess a likeable character. To be a class officer, or a representative of some club, is one of the highest honors bestowed on a high school student. In order to be elected the student must be a leader not merely a follower. The names of the clubs and class officers are: Mark Krautmann; vice-president, Jennifer Mahr; secretary, Martha Hapes; treasurer, Carolyn Hecker.

High Pep Meeting On September 27 the Junior High girls had a pep meeting in order to organize the pep club and get the girls acquainted with the new cheers at Bishop Hogan. The girls from grades six to nine attended the meeting. The junior pep club was led by the six cheerleaders for the '66-'67 school year. They are: Candi Davis, Joyce Wilson, Cindy Churchill, Linda Timmons, Jan Parsons, and alternate Jan Kriegshauser. Faiths Co-operate What? A Baptist minister for teacher? There are teaching the Catholics, too.

Many people think it is odd that Catholics, Baptists, and should all be teaching side by side. In the past years it was unthought of. Now, through the Vatican Council and similar conferences In the other faiths, the segregation of religions is diminishing. All are now working to make a better life for aU. The other religions no longer see Catholics as strangers but as people who believe in the same God as they.

As Mrs. Cleda Troop, a. Methodist, who teaches art at S.J.A., said, "We all believe in one God and we all have our own way of worshipping." The sixth grade teacher in Bishop Hogan, C. W. Clevenger, stated this, "Though the way in which we worship may differ the important fact is we all do believe in God and we will mature by being wife one another." Priests and ministers have found that by working together more can be accomplished.

This is evident Alumni Actions This year Accents is going to furnish as much as possible the col- ege news pertaining to SJA graduates. Recently at Mount Saint Scho- astica in Atchinson, three Academy grads had their pictures the school paper, "The Mount Mirror," in regard to extra curricular activities in the school. nda West, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard West, was selected on September 10th as one of the Raven cheerleaders.

Another bit of news from the Atchispn campus is that Vicki Saale is presently a "big sister" to her "little sister" Donna. They are among the 24 girls at the Mount who are members of the "big sis ter teams." Vicki is a '65 graduate of the Academy and Donna a '66 graduate. They are daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Donald Saale.

(Continued on Page Seven.) Constitution-TribuM Chillicothe, Mo. Poga FRIDAY, SEPT. 29, 1966 6 AND Another Year Begins- "Hey, who's got a "Where's room 13?" schedule?" These remarks were heard and said by students on the first day of school at S.J.A. The few minutes between classes were hectic ones, with students trying to beat the teachers to the classrooms. More than one student found himself in a wrong class with the last bell ringing after losing his schedule in the rush.

Many were relieved to see that they weren't the only ones who were late for classes. Checking watches and clocks against schedules in the last minutes of classes, most students were off with the bell into the great ijace. By the end of the day the confusion had settled down to a mild roar, until the next day when it would start again. Posch. Improvements are being made in the mad dash for lunch.

The door is now being held open for the next person. That is, just until he gets to the door.

All of a sudden a buzzing sound pierces the silence. The doors are opened and the rush on. Through the hall, down the stairs and out the door they go. Those who don't hurry often find themselves at the end of a long line. Fifteen minutes later almost everyone has finished eating.

At last the rush has ended but there will be other days to follow. Ann Myers. STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT to right: mona, Margaret Saale, and Gwg Englert Diane Birdsell, Mary Tim..
