Hoo boy...now you've done it!
Did you attend Queen of Angles in PA also. I remember her when she used a rubber hose! Chris
No...my Dread Encounter began at St. Cecilia's in Beaverton Oregon and lasted for the next twelve years, eventually terminating via my expul-er- graduation from St. Mary's Academy in Portland.

Ring knocker on the noggin ain't nothin.....compared to the *BLACK HAND*!!..:R
Sr. Mary Benedict.
First grade.
Had a prosthetic hand. Wore a black glove over the hand.
Disrupt the class or whatever - you got "cuffed" on the head with

Redemption!
She "graduated" to a hook the following year.
Kid in the class a year behind mine was excused from class to go to the lavatory.
He doesn't return in a reasonable amount of time - she sends 2nd kid to see where he is. Kid comes running back, says first kid is on the floor choking on the cap from a fountain pen.
She got it out of his throat with "the hook" (witnessed by the 2nd kid & others).
Still talked about at our 50th (8th grade grad) reunion a few years ago.
Whole new meaning to...."Get the hook!"..;)
