 Due to the overcrowding at North the Archdiocese took some students from traditional feeder parishes like Visitation BVM in Kensington and sent them across town on the "El" to attend West Catholic during the early 1950s.These students sometimes referred to themselves as "The lost boys of North" since their male family members before and after them usually attended North.This was ended once Father Judge and Cardinal Dougherty were built in the mid-1950s.
