The largest turnout of boys exchanged khaki
and whites for football duds, accepted "Knoll- gam e.
ers” as their name, and buckled down to the
first sport of the year. It wasn’t regular tackle
football as the eager boys had supposed. Instead
it was something that had to be played faster,
and with much more skill—touch football.

Our Knollers— Francis Mah, Allan Yuen,
Walter Masuno, Jack Ikeda, George Yamashi-
ta, Kam Wing Yap, Plerbert Dang, Stanley
Takamine, Raymond Aku, Ignatius Fu, George
Undo, Wallace Loo, and Raymond Sato—were
molded into a well-balanced team by Coach
George Waiolama with the faithful assistance
of managers Cleto Pasoquen and Wallace Yuen.

These boys fought all opposition gamely
and—win or lose— they made a fighting spec­
tacle of teamwork in every game on their sche­
dule.

Looks bad for the home te a m ! The 1946 baseball season received a
hearty welcome as the boys were anxious to
rid themselves of a not-so-prosperous year of
basketball. Twenty-five high schoolers started
their spring training on a bright March after­
noon at Cartwright Field again under the
faithful guidance of Coach Larry Martin.

Manager Fred Lee saw a spirited bunch of
Knollers concentrate on fielding, pitching and
batting, and shape into a whipping ball team.
Spurred on by returning veterans Edward
Ayres, George Lindo, Francis Mah, Edison
Miyawaki, Calvin Wakai, George Yamashita
and Robert Yosera, newcomers Teddy Can-
dia, Stanley Rapoza, Stanley Takamine and
Kam Yap, squared their shoulders to meet
the first game and then played "heads-up”
ball through the remaining season.

These boys, in a dynamic effort to redeem
their first year record of only one win against
so many losses, readily succeeded in playing
their way into every Maryknoll fan’s heart
through their five performances.

E dw ard A yres, pitch er; K am W ing Y ap, outfield; George Ik
Hino, outfield; R obert Y oseda, first b ase; G eorge Lindo,
catcher; G arret Y anagi, outfield; Edison M iyaw aki, second
base; F rancis M ah, right field; Tatsuo M aeda, third base.

The track season started simultaneously with base­
ball this year, and so did Coach A1 Espinda’s headaches.
Most of the boys went out for that wonderful game of
pitching and batting so the first track season at Punahou
saw a baby’s handful of speedsters trotting the quarter
mile.

Scratching his head, former sprinter A1 Espinda
realized that some quick changes had to be made, so
he shifted the practice field from Punahou to Cartwright
and paced the boys through a strenuous training before
their baseball practice began.

Coach Al’s untiring efforts were not to go unre­
warded, for some of his boys— Edward Ayres, Raymond
Aku, Teddy Candia, Edwin Chun, George Lindo, Francis
Mah, and Stanley Takamine—were to place in the
C.Y.O. track meet at the close of the season.

BOXING F ath er “ M ah M in” M cLellan, m anager of M ary-
kn o ll’s p u g ilists.
Boxing jabbed its way into Maryknoll’s
sports activities as Father McClellan, former
amateur boxer, supervised, supplementing the
boys’ punching prowess with their mental
faculties. When utilized skillfully, this coordi­
nation of physical and mental powers aided
greatly in pushing an opponent’s face inwards
or gently allowing him to rest peacefully
prostrate in a horizontal position.

WHEN
MOTHER

CAME

It was early in October when
Mother Mary Joseph came to Mary-
knoll. While in the Islands, Mother
visited all the schools and convents
of her community.

Sisters.

Maryknoll School held a special reception in her honor. Part of the
Hawaiian Pageant was presented with the addition of a Sailors’ Hornpipe
to a catchy tune (new to us), "Ive Got Sixpence.”

In her talk, Mother thanked the students for all they had done and
commended them for their work during the war. Mother spoke of the
importance of Catholic education in the years following the advent of peace.
"You, as graduates of a Catholic School, have a definite responsibility for
making the post-war world a better place in which to live and you have a
real opportunity to influence older people who have not had your advan­
tages.”

W hen Mother left, she carried our warm "alohas” with her for she
had won our hearts during her brief sojourn.

The realization of life’s true goal spurred a little
group of Maryknollers on to the study of the true
Faith. Undaunted by such formidable terms as hypos­
tatic union, infallibility, indefectibility, they persevered
until they were made partakers of the divine life
through the saving waters of Baptism.

Their aspirations became a reality when, on
December 7 and 24, Fathers Condon and Enright
administered the Sacrament that incorporated them
into the Mystical Body.

Sister W > » » "Happy feastday to you!
Happy feastday, dear Sister!
Happy feastday to you!"

So sang all Maryknoll School on
October 3rd to Sister Miriam Therese,
their principal, whose feastday it was.
Sister received the spiritual offerings of
the high school at the Missa Cantata
which the students attended the day before.

The grade school presented their pageant
in honor of the day at the place beauti­
fully decorated and prepared by the chil­
dren. Accompanied by Sister Mary Felicita,
Regional Superior of the Maryknoll Sisters
in the Islands, Sister enjoyed the precision
marching, the exquisite songs and hula
dancing which ended only with the pre­
sentation of leis, flowers and gifts.

The high school came "all out” for
their part of the feastday festivities—a play

"THE GOBBLE UNS’LL GIT YOU”

Pepperm int canes are sticky and the boys
are “ stuck” on Pepperm int Lady L orraine.

"Ef you don’t look out!” But we did look out—
into a dimly lighted hall of two hundred Seniors, Juniors,
and Sophomores masquerading as witches, ghosts and
pirates.

A lively grand march and alphabet game soon
dispelled the gloom of bats and spooks.

"Who is she?” "Who’s the farmer?” "What an
angel!” echoed through the night as tramp hobnobbed
with princess and clown swung farmerette down the
hall.

And then intermission! Even the "ghosts” enjoyed
the hearty supper provided by the girls!

To the Peppermint Lady, Lorraine Chang, went the
first prize for the most unique costume. Yes, there was
a doctor in the house, Calvin Wakai, and he walked
off with the second prize.

Ghosts had to return to their graves and witches
to their potions, but they carried away with them the
joy of a perfect Halloween.

And so the keynote of the Christmas play was
struck. The interior of the cathedral with its
beautiful rose window and dignified altar was a
perfect setting for the offering of the gifts by Sally
Kayahara, the young girl, Violet Tanabe, the
wea'thy lady, Chung Lun Pang, the scholar, Calvin
Wakai, the king, and Mildred De Ponte, the old
woman.

The play was preceded by a scene in Santa’s
workshop with grade school children eager to help
Santa, Donald Machado, bring joy to less fortunate
little ones.

An Ars Sacra nativity tableau with the exqui­
site musical setting of the "Angel’s Lullaby” by the
choir of angels closed the program on a note of
quiet reverence.

Hours of ceaseless toil and problems of almost
insurmountable difficulty exacted unstinting gen­
erosity from the scenery committee.

Then, what joy! The perfect gift of Holgar
became a Perfect Gift of the Son of God, for the
altar with its artistic rose window, symbol of such
loving sacrifice on the part of so many, became
the scene of the true Sacrifice at the midnight
Mass on Christmas.

"JINGLE BELLS”

H ilarity reigns at the C hristm as P arty .

This was the gayest party of the whole school year, Seniors sort the m ail for Santa.
and who sponsored it— the Faculty! The annual Christmas
fun session was at its height a little past noon on Decem­
ber 20 in Bachelot Hall.

The boys and girls wore something Christmassy as
their ticket of admission. Entering the hall to the tune of
a Grand March, they circled round and round in spiral
fashion getting in position for the fun which began im­
mediately.

The party opened with several lively and original
games. As these continued, the students screamed their
lungs out and shook with laughter at the funny antics
of some of their comical friends.

Then, during a lull in the merrymaking, music from
the high school boys’ orcehstra let happy hearts know that
this was their cue to join in the dance. After dancing for
awhile, the couples were interrupted by loud cheers and
warm greetings as Santa Claus made his sudden appearance.

'Merry Xmas!” he greeted.
"Same to you, Mr. Lum,” chortled a jolly Junior above

all other voices.

FOLK
FESTIVAL

’Twas a "grand night for singing” when the Glee
Club gave its annual spring recital on March 23 and 24.
This year the members offered a "Folk Festival” as
their greeting to Spring. Made up of songs and dances
of several nations of the world, the program was a riot
of color and harmony. Notable among its innovations
were several American "hits” included among the choral
numbers.

The Glee Club worked long and loud under Sister
Gregory, rehearsing the songs, learning new ones, and
polishing the old ones. On Tuesday afternoons, the
chorus set the rafters vibrating with their songs. Espe-

win’s ' Summertime,” undertaken by George
Chang. There were many dances, some of which
were the lively Shamrock Jig, Minuet, Mexican
Dance, Spanish Jota, Hungarian Ballet, Georgia
Shuffle, and Waltz Fantasie.

The youngest and the oldest students parti­
cipated in the Festival. Thirty cute kindergar­
teners did wonderful work in the Mexican Dance
while several high school boys and girls glided
to the beautiful strains of Waltz Fantasie. The
dancers of "La Jota,” all Senior Girl Scouts,
performed with much grace.

Lighting effects were breath-takingly beau­
tiful under the skillful maneuvering of Walter
Masuno, Tahn Chow Leong, and Billy Ferreira.
The Decoration Committee, headed by Francis
Ordenstein, did credit to the hall, while Ellen
Chun and her girls were perfect usherettes in
gorgeous pastel gowns.

Contributing to the freshness and informal­
ity were printed programs of appealing color
and design, a new stage curtain (an event in
itself!), and a concert piano, played by Donald
Yap, our musical pride and joy.

“ You belong to m y h e a rt.’’ HEART

February 14 rolled around and all
the Dan Cupids of Maryknoll School,
who in this instance were the Juniors,
rolled up their sleeves to get Bachelor
Hall ready for the Valentine Dance.
After many hours of work, interspersed
with fun, they stood back to admire
their handiwork, especially the pairs of
red initialed hearts and cupids all over
the hall.

The Senior Class and some of the St.
Louis College boys were guests of the
Juniors for the evening. Cupid himself
was very busy, as shown by the many
couples dancing dreamily to the smooth
music of the Nightingales. During the
tag dance all the unattached boys
wasted no time.

The refreshment table was a popular
spot and the cookies, sandwiches, and
punch set out upon it disappeared as
though by magic.

When ten o’clock, time for the last
dance, came, the obliging orchestra
played another piece for the dancers
to wind up the most enjoyable time
for a while to come.

STILL WATERS

The first peace-time Pearl Harbor Day was
retained as our annual day of recollection, and
Father Benedict Horrell, Ss.Cc. gave us three prac­
tical conferences. The year’s spiritual climax came
with the traditional three day retreat beginning
the Lenten season. Sacred Heart Parish’s newly
arrived Maryknoller, Father Daniel McLellan, was
the Retreat master. These times of withdrawal
from the ordinary routine of study provided wel­
comed opportunities to take stock, to evaluate, and
to begin again.

— — ■A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

The Juniors honor the parting Seniors with a royal feast. "Join the promenade
And lead the big parade”
This was the intriguing invita­
tion from Seniors to Juniors for
an evening of merrymaking at the
annual prom on May 3rd. Sway­
ing palms, soft lights, sweet music,
long gowns were enhanced by the
beautifully decorated hall, perfect
setting for the last formal dance
of the school year. It was a
glorious evening replete with
color, life, joy.
The Juniors took a turn at play­
ing host to the Seniors at the
formal banquet on May 24. It
was a fitting climax to the social
events of school life and an appro­
priate farewell to the Seniors.
Both prom and banquet were
gala affairs. For the Juniors they
were the anticipation of big
events; for the Seniors, happy
memories of ’46.
