j Former Holy
I Cross Teacher
I Is Ordained
Of interest to former students
at Holy Cross Mission will be
the news that one of their for
mer teachers was ordained to
the priesthood Saturday, June
14th, at St. Aloysius church in
Spokane, Washington. The Rev
erend William. J. Loyens, S.J.,
who taught at Holy Cross from
1953 to 1955, was ordained by
the Most Rev. Bernard J. Topel,
D.D., Bishop of the Diocese of
j Spokane. Father Loyens said
I his first Mass Sunday morning at
Mount St. Michael’s Scholasti
cate, assisted by Father Paul
B. Mueller, S.J., a fellow Alaska
missionary.
A native of Belgium, the new
priest was born on December 22,
1926, the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Matthew Loyehs-Biesmans, of
of Vlijtingen in the Prbvince of
Limburg. He received his gram
mar school education in local
schools, and his higher educa
tion at St. Michael’s College,
Brussels, at The Apostolic School,
Turnhout, and at the University
of Louvain. In 1947, he joined
the Jesuit Order. In 1950, the
young Jesuit came to the United
States, and continued his studies
at the Jesuit Juniorate in Sheri
dan, Oregon, and at Gonzaga
University, Spokane, from which
he was graduated in 1953 with
a Master’s Degree.
In the summer of 1953 the
young Jesuit realized his long
cherished dream of coming to
the Missions in Alaska, when he
was assigned to the famous old
Mission at Holy Cross on the
Yukon. There he was Prefect of
the Older Boys and the , first
teacher in the new high school
institution the following Septem
ber. One of his first students
was Teddy Mayac, of King Is
land and Nome, who graduated
last year from the school, which
had been transferred to the new
facilities at Glenallen, in 1956.
- In 1955, Father Loyens went
outside for his theological train
ing at Alma College in Los
Gatos, California. And in the
spring of the following year he
became a citizen of the United
States at ceremonies held in San
Francisco. Before he receives
assignment to a post in the North
land, the Alaska Missionary will
complete his theological train
ing and a final year of Jesuit
studies.

ord for seaplanes was established
in June 1913 at Annapolis, Md.,
when a Navy pilot flew to a
dizzy height of 6,200 feet.
