In the next-to-last issue of Cathedral Chronicle during our years, May 28, 1964, the big news was of our top two scholars — Barbara Shean and Paul Donahue. The lead story reported that each had been named National Merit Scholars, the only two from Springfield schools that year. Paul went on to Dartmouth and Barbara to Middlebury.

As for some of “the rest of us,” the Chronicle had pictures of Bill Devlin and John Dubiel with the project they would be showing at the national JETS fair (page four), a small feature on Ed “Doc” Verroneau wrapping up 🙂 his four years as athletic trainer (page five), announcement of Dennis Finnerty winning the Chronicle‘s good sportsmanship award (page five), and notice that Cathedral’s first musical — Brigadoon, with Frank Hurley, Rita Arsenault, and Janice Perry in major roles — would open that Friday (page four).

Also, Paul Langlois and Leonie Cormier are in a page one photo doing chemistry with Sr. James Francis, several seniors are successful nearing the end of their time as Panthers (page five), and three seniors are among the Western Mass.-champions Mathletes (page six).

One more issue to go, and that’s in only a couple of weeks!
