FOREWORD
The past year, we trust, has been a memor-
able one, in new experiences, new acquaintances,
and acquired knowledge here at St. Mary's Semi-
nary Junior College.
Through the medium of this book we are en-
deavoring to record some of these outstanding
experiences for you, and if this Castellan has
captured just a little of the spirit of our past
year at St. Mary's, we feel it will be a success.

To Miss Claire V. Stickney, we
the graduates of 1952-53 dedicate
this issue of the Castellan.
Miss Stickney received her early
education at Notre Dame de la Com-
passion, Hauteville et St. Dennis,
France, and she has done graduate
study at the University of Havana.
Needless to say, her studies abroad
have equipped her with a knowledge of the people and customs of these
foreign countries as well as their language. She has also done graduate
work in the United States at the Catholic University in Washington, D. C,
and at Middlebury College in Vermont.
In addition to being an excellent teacher, Miss Stickney has shown
her students the more social side of foreign countries through her able
sponsoring of the French Club. This French Club, through Miss Stick-
ney1 s leadership, has given many enjoyable picnics for its members as
well as an annual dance which is looked forward to by all the students.
She also presides over the French table in the Dining Hall and through
her work as a teacher and a friend, Miss Stickney has fostered an active
interest in languages.
Throughout her many years at St. Mary's, Miss Stickney has always
been known to support and uphold the traditions of our college.
We, the students of St. Mary's Seminary Junior College, would like
to say, "Merci Beaucoup, Mademoiselle Stickney."

Seniors
ROBERT ADAMS "Bob"
"He does it with better grace but I do it more natur-
al."
Friendly and easy going with a beautiful voice.
Bob has sung at many of the assemblies at SMS and
with the Choir on some of its local performances.
It seems to us that one of his favorites could very
well be "Every Day is Ladies Day With Me".
LEE BRECKENRIDGE "Lee Pee"
Treasurer
"The gentleness of all the Gods go with thee."
Choir 3; A. A. Board 4; Signal News Production Man-
ager 4; Castellan Staff 4; Library Assistant 4; Bowl-
ing Team 4.
In her quiet way, Lee has endeared herself to the
hearts of many of us at SMS. She has been the best
Treasurer a class could ever have because no one
could ever refuse her. Wedding bells will ring for
Lee soon after a young soldier comes back from the
war--the best of luck as a future housekeeper, Lee!
JOAN PATRICIA COOK "Cookie"
"They are able to accomplish anything they take in
hand because they seem to have the power necessary
for doing so."
A. A. Board 2, Treasurer 3, Pres. 4; Varsity Softball

urer 3.
With a quick smile and a twinkle in her eye,
Cookie has gone her busy way doing a great job in
the field of athletics and in the many organizations
to which she belongs.
VIRGINIA ANN DAVIS "Ginny"
President
"Good nature and good sense must ever join. To err
is human; to forgive, divine."
Varsity Basketball 3,4; Varsity Volleyball 4; Signal
News Staff 3; Home Ec. Club V. P. 4; A. A. Board
Sec. 4; May Day 3,4; Castellan Staff 3,4; Council
4.
Ginny has her own brand of sublte humor which
never fails to bring forth a laugh from those near her.
She doesn't believe in crossing any bridges before
she gets to them, a trait which has enabled her to
hold down several important positions here with ease.
SMS is going to miss you, Ginny Davis!
PATRICIA LOUISE FISHER "Patty"
"The grand essentials to happiness in this life are
something to do, something to love, and something
to hope for."

Committee 3; Castellan 3; Signal News 3; King's
Daughters Committee Chairman 4; Fall Play 3; May
Court 3; May Princess 4; Orientation Committee 4;
Current Events Club 3.
Patty is just the finest kind. She is the sort of per-
son you can take your troubles to, for she will always
understand and try to help. This understanding and
insight has helped make Patty one of the best Student
Council Presidents SMS has ever had. Home Ec. is
her specialty and she plans to further her study at the
University of Maryland next year. Here is wishing
Patty the very best of everything in life, for she de-
serves it.
TOMMY RAY GARDENER "Bing"
"Not love thy life, nor hate; but what they liv'st,
live well."
As one of the two male members of the Senior
Class, Bing has managed to liven up many an hour in
the Smoker and in the classroom. If his two years at
SMS have made him a little philosophic on the sub-
ject of women, we can well understand and sym-
pathize. Next year fling plans to continue his studies
at George Washington University.
MARGARET OWEN GOLDSBOROUGH "Mamie"
"The truly brave are soft of hearts and eyes and feel
for what their duty bids them do."
Current Events Club 3; Social Committee 3; A. A.
Board 3, V. P. 4; Hockey Varsity 2,3,4; Home Ec.
Club2,3; Choir 2,3,4; Court 3, 4; Class V. P. 3; Coun-
cil V. P. 4; May Day 3,4; Orientation Committee 3,
4.
Marniecameto us three years ago via the Eastern
Shore. She can feel at home anywhere there is a
rebel flag in view and a fellow Eastern Shoreman in
sight. During her stay at SMS, Mamie's mastery of
words and wit brought her many friends. Studies have
never been a worry to this Sem Fern, and with her
sound judgment of people and eagerness to help others
she is bound to be a success.

ELIZABETH ANN PASS "Bettie"
Secretary
"The game of life is looked cheerfully on when one
carries in one's heart the inalienable treasure of
love."

mittee Chairman 4; Signal News, Editor 4, Production
Manager 4; Social Committee 3; Library Committee
3,4; Class Sec. 3; Court 4; A.A. 4; May Day 3.
Bettie is a capable lass who gets things done qui-
etly and efficiently. She has a great sense of humor
and a nick ol saying the wrong thing at the right
time. Bettie also has a good deal of common sense
and can always be counted on to see things in their
perspective--unless, of course, you get her Irish tem-
per up. In June of '54 Bettie will become an Army
wife and who knows but what she'll be the General's
Lady some day!
BETTE JEANNE SACHSE "B. J."
"Let's have an Utopia Free from worry, free from
care."
Choir 3,4; Plant Committee Chairman 3; Council 3;
Class Pres. 3; A.A. 3; May Court 4; May Day 3; Ori-
entation Committee 4; Social Committee Chairman
4; Castellan Editor 4.
A lazy grin, long legs, and an intense desire to
hit the sack are B. J. A convincing talker, B. J. has
contrived to talk herself in and out of more scrapes
than any of her less silver-tongued school mates,
She intends to put this ability to good use in the field
of law; one smile and she'll have the judge wrapped
around her little finger.

ries.

Student Government
The Student Council, under the leadership of Patty Fisher , had a very
successful year.
Early in the semester council members were active in orienting the
students into the way of life at St. Mary's. During the year they sponsored
a number of assemblies ,the outstanding example being the Christmas pro-
gram.
S.G.A. also sponsored the May Prom following the May Day dance
program. The couples danced under the sky of romantic Paris , and in the
shadow of the Eiffel Tower. After the Prom a most successful social
hour was held in the Smoker.
The Student Council, in order to place more meaning on our honor
system, made a revision to the Constitution of S.G.A. in 1 953. The major
changes were the establishment of an Honor Court, the changing of court

This year was an outstanding one for the Seminary Choir. Under the
direction of Miss Jean McDougall, and accompanied by Sue Shower, the
group gave a wide variety of programs throughout the county and state.
A nativity pageant, "Adeste Fideles." and the annual Carol Festival
were presented in the Music Hall and gymnasium at Christmas time , and
in March the choir toured for three days in the Baltimore area, visiting
seven schools.
Two innovations for the Seminary choir this year were the Choral
Clinic, held on campus and attended by three community choirs, and the
Music Follies, highlighted by a hilarious Overture, and a series of in-
terpretations of "Jack and Jill."

year as well as many fund raising
benefits for the welfare of the
school as a whole.

extensive sports pro-
gram and plans all

tramural sports.
The governing
body of the organiza-
tion is the Board, for

consists of president,
vice president, secre-
tary, and treasurer, as
well as a manager for
each of the sports par-
ticipated in during the

Signal News
Following the summer break the
SIGNAL NEWS staff returned to the
halls of S.M.S. a little green but en-
thusiastic. With the new editor, Bettie
Pass, and the staff, the activities were
given more publicity than ever before.
The Signal News survived various dif-
ficulties in the first semester, with the
staff learning by experience. The edi-
tor for the spring semester was Liz
Dallam, who gained much by applying
her journalism directly to newspaper
production. We want to thank Miss
Truxal and the staff for what they have
accomplished for the SIGNAL NEWS
and S.M.S.

pied during the year.

gether with Samadra,

ing the classes, two
rotating members

uals develop good school habits.
During the last six weeks of school, Court worked with other branches of
S. G. A. to effectively establish the changes in Student Government, making it
a more important body than it had been previously.

played in a tourna-
ment at Majorie

played at S. M. S. as

Hurricane Island
Samadra's annual fall production for
1952 was "HURRICANE ISLAND," a
children's theatre presentation directed
by Miss Elliott. The plot concerned
Pilgrim, a small boy, played by Peggy
Gillespie, and his gradual acceptance
on Hurricane Island by Madame Vandee-
vender, played by Linda Lou Long,
and her two children, Sue Cetnarowski
and Faye Seifert. Other members of
the cast included Tay Parrott as Gypsy
Joe, and Mary Holman as The Captain.
An unusual feature of "HURRICANE
ISLAND" was the "working set," which
boasted a house, an alarm bell, a wind-
mill that pumped, and a real hurricane
complete with wind and storm effects.

In our earnest efforts to give you a bigger and -- we hope -- bet-

cerely hope your copy will seem the more precious to you, reflecting
as it does the life of the Seminary in both its rush hours and its
leisure. B. J. Sachse was editor-in-chief of the '53 Castellan staff;
Florence Atkinson, assistant editor; Gail Harbold, layout, and Pat
Chandler, assistant; Lee Breckendridge, business manager; Barbara
Van Devanter, photography; Sue Cetnarowski, copy; Virginia Davis,
