The Annual Student Council Recognition Dinner was held on Monday
evening, March 28, 1961 in Knapp Hall. The purpose of this dinner
was to recognize people who have devoted their time and effort toward
the betterment of the school.
Tony Adamo, the past president of Student Council, opened the dinner
by presenting Mr. Hertel, who gave an opening prayer.
Dean ReUly was guest speaker and gave a speech on the value of ed-ucation.
He was presented with a silver tray for his continued guidance
and disposition to Student Council and its activities and for benefiting
the school. Dean Reilly's resigriation became effective April 1, 1961.
The entire Student Council was invited to the Dinner. All senior
Council members received a scroll for their partic^ation on Couitcil
in the two years. Others who received scrolls, the third degree of recog-nition,
were those seniors who did not belong to Council but who devoted
their time and effort to the betterment of the school to some extent.
The two highest degrees of recognition were the gold and sUver pin
respectively. The difference between the two pins was the amount of con-sistancy
and work done by those outstanding seniors recognized.

Tomorrow Night
The students and faculty of
SUATI will now have the pleasure
of seeing and hearing the famous
boys choir of St. Kilian's CImrch
in Farmingdale tomorrow night,
i ^ r i l 13. The concert will be
held in Knapp Hall beginning at
8:30 p.m. There will be no charge
for this event.
The boys choir was formed in
1955 but did not blossom into an
outstanding group until 1958 under
the instruction and direction of
conductor Aipad Darazas.
The full choir consists of about
90 boys between the ages of 7 and
14, but the concert group—that
travels, performs at special
events, and on radio and televi-sion—
consists of about 35 boys.
Last year the boys choir was
awarded the CYO trophy as the
top unit in a glee club contest
sponsored by the Catholic Youth
Organization.
When the boys perform, their
songs range from religious and
secular pieces to western and folk
songs.
The choir has already appeared
on three television shows and also
on numerous radio broadcasts.
The boys have worked hard to
prepare an entertaining evening for
the SUATI students, and we
sincerely hope that everyone will
be able to come and enjoy their
selections.
